"If this unusually unreasonable request, the punishment that overrides the will of all Kirigakure ninjas, is forcefully written into the armistice agreement, then I don't see any sincerity in Konoha.

With all due respect, we will never compromise and would rather die than die.

Now it seems that Konoha is indeed strong, and it is no longer comparable to Kirigakure at this time. However, judging from the current situation in the ninja world, no matter how strong Konoha is, there is absolutely no possibility of completely solving Kirigakure. ...Under the restraint of many parties, it is impossible for you to dispatch a large number of troops to the kingdom of water. "

Mizukage understands the restraint of the other three ninja villages on Konoha, and he believes that this general trend is something he can rely on.

"Mizukage-sama, such emotional remarks should not come from your mouth, I reminded you to remain rational.

Some things may be difficult to accept in the senses, but a certain fact is on the bright side-in terms of the current weakening of Kirigakure, it is no longer qualified to continue to be juxtaposed with the other four major ninja villages.

You do have a certain level of background, and it is by no means a small ninja village, so you feel that the request to deprive you of the title is unfair, but... the current Kirigakure is neither small nor large, and compared with the four major ninja villages, it is only '4 at best. +1' only.

No strength, no status? How can it be.

As the first party to invade the Nation of Fire and lead to the outbreak of the Ninja World War, Kirigakure must be punished.

Konoha's situation is indeed not good, but Kirigakure is even worse now. If you want to terminate the negotiation and continue the war, I can only say...you have to try.

Let me remind you again, your enemies are not necessarily Konoha, Yanyin, Yunyin, etc., you don’t really think they are allies, do you? When you are too weak, no one minds taking the opportunity to take a bite of. "

In this kind of matter, Hanyu's attitude is rarely so tough.

Kirigakure threatened to suspend negotiations? He didn't believe it at all, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki was still in his hands.

Nuclear deterrence is deterrence before it is released, but it is not so terrifying after it is released, so it is indeed a wise move to keep him instead of killing Liuwei Jinchuriki before.

"And I think our side is tolerant enough. We do not advocate the complete deprivation of the titles of Kirigakure and Mizukage. This is to respect the tradition, heritage and glory of Danin Village. The time limit for everything is only ten years. Ten years After that, your strength has recovered, and you will naturally be able to get back what originally belonged to you.

Even the constraints of the armistice agreement may end early. For example, if Konoha suffers a more serious defeat than Kirigakure in the next war, then you can immediately tear up the agreement and lose the substantial restraint ability. The so-called agreement is nothing more than a scrap of paper. "

The Hinata brothers who were accompanying Hanyu during the negotiation couldn't help but look sideways at him. Lord Hanyu really doesn't speak human words, is this how important people communicate in such a serious negotiation situation?

Of course, the Fourth Mizukage couldn't just flip the table like this, he was just bargaining.

Interestingly, Kirigakure quickly accepted the real and substantive economic and military punishment, the tone has been set, and the next step is just to discuss an appropriate number.

But in terms of "false name", Kirigakure is particularly stubborn... because the status of the Five Ninja Village and the name of Mizukage are not just a false name.

Only the "five gangsters" can "do whatever they want", and Xiao Ren Village can only be shrouded in the shadow of Da Ren Village.

"The name of the Five Kages was jointly determined by the Five Great Ninja Villages many years ago. If Konoha asked Mizukage to 'disappear' because of a defeat in a battle... I don't think this is something that Konoha can decide alone."

Five Kages is indeed an "international title" and is the strongest group composed of the strongest ninjas. Those who have the title of "Kage" must have both the strength of Ninja Village and their own strength.

If there is a sixth village head in the ninja world who wants to get the title of "shadow", it is not impossible in theory, but he must obtain the unanimous approval of the five major ninja villages.

Based on the same principle, if the Five Kages kicked people out, wouldn't they also follow the principle of "unanimous approval"?

Could it be that Mizukage still wants a "one-vote veto"?

"Then Mizukage-sama can ask for the opinions of the other three ninja villages. They may naturally support you, but the important thing is still one point - the comprehensive ability of a village is the cornerstone of all status.

And we are not making the water shadow disappear, but just asking you to hide for a while, which is a reasonable punishment. "

Kirigakure was blown up once during the second Ninja World War, and now that the third Ninja World War has just begun, Kirigakure was blown up again. This ninja village first lost a large number of manpower, and after a little recovery, it ushered in a second loss, so in essence, Kirigakure has been reduced to second-rate.

After many years, Kirigakure's strength may slowly recover, but there is a problem here. Kirigakure, who has lost the status of the Five Great Ninja Villages and the title of Mizukage, will welcome and recognize them when they return. ?

The answer to this question can refer to what happened to the Thousand Hands in Konoha.

"For the history of a ninja village, although ten years is not long, it is definitely not short... We can take a step back, temporarily lose one of the titles of Kirigakure and Mizukage, and keep one of them, so we can Only then can the opinions of all Kirigakure ninjas be suppressed."

Hanyu just smiled at the statement that both sides took a step back, and then said:

"Have a compromise, it sounds good...

But I refuse.

Mizukage-sama, do you think we made such a request to bargain with you? "

Who is confused here, Kirigakure is Mizukage, and Mizukage is Kirigakure, and keeping one of them is equivalent to preserving the political status of this Ninja Village—the political images of Kirigakure and Mizukage are one and two sides, and they are unity of.

In the negotiation between Hanyu and Mizukage, he is the strong side, so even if the negotiation is very difficult, there will always be one party who will succumb, and the party who succumbs will only be the weaker party.

After the death of the third Mizukage and the ascension of the Fourth Mizukage, Kirigakure's ambitions, expectations, determination, and even all pursuits were poured out in this war, so with the defeat of the war, all of this has been fragmented.

In fact, the fourth Mizukage did not expect the worst outcome in his heart. There is always a possibility of failure in war, but what he did not expect was that the failure would come so quickly, and the consequences that Kirigakure would have to bear were so Seriously... Everything is much worse than the worst outcome Mizukage imagined.

The most erroneous point of Kirigakure's estimation of the war beforehand was actually regarding Hanyu's strength. A ninja who could change the direction of the war by himself has not appeared for more than 30 years.

If Hanyu in his heyday was placed more than 30 years ago, he would not be able to do what he is doing now, but he is afraid of comparison in everything... During the Hashirama era, people who can be compared with him in status can also be imagined in strength.

When the war started, Kirigakure quickly defeated the Konoha Front and defeated Shimura Danzo, the fourth Mizukage once thought that they would soon approach the set goal, but then Kirigakure collapsed... The turning point of victory or defeat was too great It was so abrupt that at this time Yakura actually had a sense of delusion like Nanke Yimeng.

But reality is reality because sometimes it is so cruel that people want to escape.

While Hanyu was negotiating with Mizukage, some Kirigakure ninjas and Konoha ninjas were allowed to move freely. remains.

Of the 700 Konoha ninjas who followed Hanyu into the country of water, after this battle, only 500 remained...Compared with the enemy and ourselves, such a loss is actually not that much.

Because of the initial failure, half of the Konoha East Front was lost, so Hanyu wanted to lead the rest of the team into the Land of Water, and because of the subsequent loss of the Konoha Brigade in the Land of Water, Hanyu would be obsessed with fighting against Kirigakure's punishment—in a word, this is not Hanyu's war alone, the result of the war is the common honor of everyone.

After collecting the remains of the war dead, Hanyu led the Konoha ninjas away from Kirigakure in order to slightly weaken the pertinence of the two sides... In order to ensure the apparent fairness, Mizukage led the same number of Kirigakure ninjas to follow Konoha is here to act together.

Next, the occasion of the negotiation was changed to Daimyo Castle in the Land of Water.

Compared with Kirigakure, starting negotiations in Daming City is more political.
