Naruto's water escape is the strongest

Chapter 362 Long Shadow (3rd update)

"This matter" Takiying hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile, "What is organized by Akatsuki, does it have anything to do with our Taki Ninja Village?"

He looked at Haruno Sakura and added: "This should be something that your five major ninja villages should consider."

If the sky falls, a tall man will hold it up, that's what he means.

Haruno Sakura glanced at him with a half-smile, and then said seriously: "Lord Takikage, have you forgotten the purpose of the Akatsuki organization?"

"It's to collect jinchūriki," Sakura said word by word, staring into his eyes.

I saw Takikage's expression change, he took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down and said, "What does that have to do with our Taki Ninja Village? Our village is small and weak, so where can we find any Jinchuuriki?"

Takiying denied it, but the girl had already seen the answer in his eyes.

The Seven-Tailed Jinchuuriki is most likely to be in the country of Taki, the Ninja Village of Taki.

"Really?" Haruno Sakura looked at him, her eyes piercing his face like knives, and asked in a deep voice, "Then, why did Akatsuki appear in your country? Could it be that they are here for tourism?"

Cold sweat quietly broke out on his forehead and nose. Taki Ying quickly wiped his face with his hands and laughed sarcastically: "Ha, ha, maybe they have other purposes, or they are just trying to deceive others, deliberately attracting everyone's attention to our country. Then they secretly carry out their real plan elsewhere."

From Takikage's point of view, is there any difference between Akatsuki and Konoha?

No matter who discovers the Jinchūriki of Taki-nin Village, the result is the same for the Taki-nin: the tailed beast is taken away.

The difference is that as Akatsuki is an underground organization, they should only act secretly; while Konoha may launch a war against the country of Taki in order to seize the Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki.

From this point of view, Konoha is even more cruel than Akatsuki.

Takikage could even think of several reasons for provoking a war in an instant, such as accusing Taki Ninja Village of using unfair means to steal the Nanao from Konoha, etc. He didn't even need an excuse.All I need to tell you is that there is a weak Ninja Village who has the powerful Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki in his hands.

The tailed beast Jinchūriki has always been a taboo for big countries and cannot be tolerated by small countries. Having a tailed beast in a small shinobi village is as dangerous as a three-year-old child holding gold in the market.A common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade.

If it hadn't been for chance, the country of Taki would not have had the chance to capture Nanao.The power of the tailed beast is too tempting. Although he knows that once the news is leaked, Taki Ninja Village will be in extremely dangerous situation, but he can get such precious power, and Taki Kage will do anything to keep it.

Takikage refused to admit it, and his stubborn attitude made it difficult to continue the conversation.

Haruno Sakura sighed, not interested in beating around the bush with him, and said directly: "Nanabi Jinchuuriki, it's pointless to deny it when you are here."

"If your envoy must accuse our Taki Ninja Village of unfounded matters, then as Taki Shadow, I have no other choice but to firmly deny it." Taki Shadow said in a helpless tone.

"You can tell lies to us, but can you also say the same to Akatsuki's people?" Sakura frowned and said, "They have known your information for a long time. You cannot compete with Akatsuki's power at this juncture. , are you still unwilling to accept Konoha's help? You would rather watch the Jinchūriki being snatched away by Akatsuki."

"Suppose we really have jinchūriki," Takikage asked, "what you call help is to bring her back to your village, right?"

"We in Konoha have no intention of taking the Jinchuriki of your village as our own. After the Akatsuki crisis, the Jinchuriki of your village can return to your country at any time. However, if you continue to be stubborn and refuse to accept our Help, I’m afraid you will regret it when Shi Xiao comes.”

"Nanao is not in our village." Takikage ignored what the girl said and just shook his head in denial.

He sneered in his heart, no matter how nice it was, there was no point in using sweet words to trick out key information and then immediately turning his back and denying the person. He had seen it countless times in the ninja world.

Moreover, the closer the five major countries are, the more skillful they are in this kind of hooliganism. Otherwise, why would small countries call them the five major hooligans in private?

Anyway, he just killed the Seven-Tailed Jinchuuriki and is not in the Taki Ninja Village.

If it is admitted that there is really a Nanao in Taki Ninja Village, what is Konoha's so-called help? I am afraid that the next step is to take her back to Konoha for protection in the name of threatening the jinchūriki's safety.At that time, whether the Jinchuuriki belongs to Taki Ninja Village or Konoha Village, it is hard to say. Konoha has ten thousand ways to keep the Jinchuuriki with them.

And thinking about the personality of the Nanao Jinchuuriki, Takikage had a headache.

With Eve's personality, maybe she doesn't need any tricks from Konoha at all, and she will stay in Konoha and be happy.

"Thank you for your concern." Thinking of this, Takikage had regained his composure and shook his head and said, "It's just that our village does not have a jinchuriki. We are not worried that the Akatsuki organization will really attack the village, and we will not regret it."

Haruno Sakura could not tell anything from his determined eyes.

She bit her lower lip, not knowing what to say for a moment; the Taki Ninja Village actually had such great distrust of Konoha, and would rather risk facing Akatsuki than accept Konoha's help, as if It's like Konoha is more threatening than Akatsuki.

This really surprised her.

What are the Taki ninjas thinking?

&

nbsp;In fact, this isolated Ninja Village has always been doubtful about the information provided by Konoha.

In their opinion, there was another way of saying things besides what Konoha claimed.That is, the so-called "Akatsuki" organization may be just a cover, or even Konoha is manipulating them behind the scenes. The purpose is to scare the small ninja village and try to find out whether they have Nanao.If you think about it carefully, this possibility is not small. In the more than sixty years since the founding of Konoha, there have been many battles to fight for the five major tailed beast villages, but I have never heard of any underground organization that can compete with the five major ninja villages. food.

Looking at it from Takikage's perspective, Konoha suddenly told him that there was an organization in the ninja world that he had never heard of. It was trying to collect tailed beasts for no reason, and it also had close to double digits of "kage" level ninjas, and its strength could match those of Takikage. Five major ninja villages compete.With this kind of information, Takikage will naturally be suspicious. If the five great ninja villages can easily compete with him, his Taki ninja village also has the Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki, so why is the national power always weak?

Takikage can believe in the existence of Akatsuki, but he doesn't believe it when he says that Akatsuki is stronger than the Great Ninja Village.Maybe there are really criminals who are plotting against the Nanao, but he believes that with his hidden position and the strength of the village, he can keep the power of the Nanao Jinchuuriki from an underground organization.

Taki Ninja has lived in his own world for too long and lacks sensitivity to changes in the outside world. He still thinks that the ninja world is still the same as before. This is the source of Taki Ying's mind-blowing thoughts.

In short, no matter what, Takikage refused to admit that there were jinchūriki in their village.

Faced with such an incompetent person, the girl didn't have much to do with him. She couldn't catch them all and check them one by one to see if they were Jinchuuriki. Otherwise, Konoha's alliance would be completely destroyed.

She turned around and looked at Sasuke helplessly.

Sasuke nodded slightly.

It seems that the Sharingan may come in handy.

Of course, they were not so reckless as to perform a genjutsu against Takikage in front of so many people. Haruno Sakura came here for talks, not to destroy Taki Ninja Village.

When you encounter a problem, you should first find a way to solve the problem, not the person who caused the problem.

The following talks became boring and full of routine. After no sensitive topics were involved, the atmosphere relaxed a lot. Sometimes Taki Shinobu sitting next to him would also interject a few words.

After a few rounds of useless talk, Haruno Sakura discovered that Taki Ninja Village was really closed-off. They had only heard about many well-known major events in Konoha in recent years.

They have heard about the Uchiha genocide. In the past two years, they only heard a little bit about the war between Suna Ninja and Konoha. As for the latest events, such as the friction between Konoha and Akatsuki, and the cooperation between Konoha and Mist Ninja, It was completely a black eye.

"The world is changing so fast." After listening to Sakura's introduction, Takiying said with emotion.

"Yes, Takikage-sama, if you are interested, you can take the opportunity of this Chunin Exam to go abroad, visit Konoha, and see the changes in the world. Konoha is waiting for you," the girl said with a smile.

After getting to know them more deeply, Sakura gradually understood the Taki Ninja Village's resistance to contact with the Great Ninja Village.This is a group of ninjas who have hidden themselves to avoid war. They live with their heads down and have a strong sense of distrust towards the Great Ninja Village. Perhaps this is the reason why the Great Ninja Village has been able to survive in the cracks of world wars over the years.

Taki Ren hopes that everything in the outside world has nothing to do with them, and refuses any change.

If Takiying is willing to open his eyes and see the changes in the world, things may turn around. Sakura tries to invite him.

"Yeah" Takiying pondered for a moment and said, "I'll think about it."

"We are going back to Konoha tomorrow. If you make up your mind, there is one last chance." Haruno Sakura said.

"Shibuki, take Konoha's messenger down to rest." Takikage shook his head noncommittally and did not answer the girl. He just turned to one of his subordinates and said to one of his Taki-nins.

"Yes, Lord Shibatsuki," a young man with broken hair bowed his head and led Haruno Sakura and Sasuke out of the house.

Takiying watched the two people leaving and thought silently for a long time.

Watching the girl go away, until he could no longer hear the light footsteps, he asked a Taki nin next to him: "Where is Shuiyanfu? Where did she run to?"

"Uh" Taki Ren hesitated for a while, looked around, and replied cautiously, "It doesn't seem to be in the village."

"What?" Takiying's face suddenly darkened, "I told this wild girl not to leave the village casually. She disobeys her every time."

He looked angry, turned around and scolded: "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on her? You can't handle such a small thing well?"

Taki Shinobu had cold sweat on his face and quickly replied: "Takikage-sama, Fu-sama can fly and is much stronger than us. We can't stop her at all."

"Trash can't do even a small thing well," Takiying scolded, "Go find her quickly and don't let her meet Konoha's messenger."

"Yes, Lord Takikage." Takinin knelt down on one knee, nodded in agreement, and then asked worriedly, "The envoy of Konoha seems to have discovered our secret. What should we do?"

Taki Shadow glared at Taki Shinobu coldly: "This is not a problem you should be concerned about."

He knows what his subordinates mean by asking this.
