Naruto: In the name of time, shock the ninja world!.

Chapter 252 It’s our turn to take the initiative

Just as Yagura was sighing with emotion, at this time in the Konoha Prison, Sakumo and the Mizukage were sitting face to face.

The Hokage is against the Mizukage. According to the Five Elements, water should restrain fire, but now the situation is reversed.

Shuo Mao looked around and said, "How is it? Are you satisfied with the environment here? I specially asked them to clean it up."

The cell is fully furnished and except for the dim lighting, it is no different from a normal room.

At first glance, I thought the Mizukage was here to travel to Konoha and was treated as a guest of honor.

Hearing this, the Mizukage sneered: "If you are too attentive to others for no reason, you are either a traitor or a thief. What information do you want from me, Hokage?"

After saying this, Shuo Mao did not refute, but nodded: "I do have some ideas, but those are incidental. My main purpose of coming here this time is to persuade them to surrender."

Hearing this, the Mizukage was visibly stunned, he even thought there was something wrong with his ears.

Persuading them to surrender? Are you kidding me? ! !

Seeing the surprise and confusion in the Mizukage's expression, Sakumo spoke at the right time and analyzed for the Mizukage: "In the Third Ninja World War, Konoha will definitely win. You should be able to see this, Mizukage."

The Mizukage remained silent, but the expression on his face betrayed his true thoughts.

When Kirigakure was defeated by Konoha, it was equivalent to cutting off one of the arms of the coalition forces, causing the morale of the coalition forces to plummet.

Without the Kirigakure sea transportation supply route, human transportation alone would definitely not be enough for the survival of 20,000 people.

Once supplies become scarce, the originally united morale of the people will begin to waver, and once wavered, it will not be long before they fall apart.

The Mizukage is no fool. He always looks three steps ahead. Konoha's victory is only a matter of time.

Seeing the Mizukage's expression change slightly, Sakumo continued to strike while the iron was hot and said, "After the Ninja War, will your coalition be disbanded? What will Kirigakure do? Have you ever thought about this?"

The Mizukage was immediately shaken by what he said. War was no joke, and if they failed, they had to bear the price of failure.

However, this price is something that Kirigakure, the weakest of the five major villages at this stage, cannot afford.

Most of the ninjas brought with them were lost, and the top combat forces were wiped out, leaving only a few big cats and small cats.

After the war, how will the Mizukage explain to the Daimyo when he returns? These are all problems.

"Do you want me to take Kirigakure and surrender like the Sand Village did?" the Mizukage said.

Sakumo nodded and then shook his head, saying, "It's basically the same, but Kirigakure came later after all, so we need to pay a price to compensate or...exchange for it."

The Mizukage asked calmly, "What do you want?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sakumo raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "It's very simple. Kirigakure is rich in aquatic products and its shipbuilding technology leads the ninja world."

"I am very greedy for these two things. Kirigakure must meet Konoha's seafood needs within 20 years and hand over its shipbuilding technology."

As soon as the words fell, the Mizukage, who had heard these conditions, blurted out: "This is impossible!"

"This is what Kirigakure relies on for survival, how could we give it to the enemy?"

Having been rejected, Sakumo continued slowly, analyzing the pros and cons for him and attacking his mind: "It can't be relative."

"This is an incomplete word. If Kirigakure disagrees right now, then what Konoha will do... I don't know."

After hearing this, the Mizukage clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white, and his eyes flashed with ferocity, as if he wanted to eat Sakumo.

Seeing this, Shumao just smiled slightly and slowly withdrew. Before leaving, he left a message: "Think about it carefully, time...is running out."

After saying that, he left the cell. The Mizukage looked at his back, wishing he could eat him in one bite.

Sakumo walked out of the cell, and Hoshino Kaede, who should have been drunk, was also here. His face looked normal and he didn't look drunk at all.

Seeing Sakumo coming out, he couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Were you serious about what you just said?"

"Of course I'm serious." Sakumo nodded affirmatively.

If Kirigakure doesn't know what's good for you, then don't blame him for being cruel. People in Konoha cannot die in vain.

Hoshino Kaede nodded, then changed the subject and said, "When we came here, that Yagura seemed to have developed a liking for Konoha."

Sakumo: “???”

With a question mark on his face, Shumao looked at Xingye Feng in confusion: "What on earth did you do?"

Xingye Feng helplessly spread his hands: "Don't blame me, I didn't do anything."

"But this is also good." Hoshino Kaede looked towards the prison and said with a smile: "If the Mizukage can't make up his mind, then let Yagura meet him."

Hearing this, Shumao's eyes lit up, and he punched his palm and said, "That's a good idea."

“No matter how strong a fortress is, it is often destroyed from within.”

"Let's wait a few days and let them meet." said Xingye Feng.

Sakumo nodded and agreed, then started talking to Hoshino Kaede about Konoha's recent situation as if they were chatting about family matters.

These data reflect the good and bad things that Sakumo has done since he took office, and Hoshino Kaede also pricked up his ears and listened curiously.

Afterwards, the two men began to talk in the prison, talking while listening.

Half a minute later, Xingye Feng looked at Shumao and said approvingly: "Shumao, you didn't let me down."

After receiving the positive comments, Sakumo raised his eyebrows happily like a child who had eaten candy, and spoke modestly.

"It's because of you that Konoha has laid a solid foundation for what it is today."

Xingye Feng said cheerfully: "Being too modest is hypocritical."

Sakumo scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard that.

After saying this, Xingye Feng brought up the school again and asked, "How is the matter of setting up a general department that you proposed earlier going?"

Upon hearing this, Shumao immediately became serious: "So far, the resistance is not great. Those families are more sensible than I thought."

The entire Konoha is full of Anbu, who are equivalent to the eyes and ears of the Hokage, and basically there is very little that can be hidden from him.

"You know what's good for you? I think you don't want to be liquidated." Xingye Feng sneered. "Although the times are progressing, there are always some stubborn people who are unwilling to keep up with the times."

Shuo Mao smiled and said, "These people are harmless. To put it bluntly, they have been eliminated."

Xingye Feng nodded, and then said earnestly: "It's never too important to take school matters too seriously, you have to pay attention to it."

"clear."

Sakumo suddenly became serious.

Xingye Feng said with relief: "But I still say the same thing, end the war first, and then consider other things."

"The Kumogakure and Iwagakure are the most difficult to deal with. You have to be careful that they may become desperate and attack at all costs."

Sakumo smiled confidently, his eyes sparkling, and said, "After a while, when Kirigakure is stable, I will send Zixiao to reinforce them, and then launch a general attack on them."

"It's not Konoha's style to keep getting beaten. It's time for us to take the initiative."
