Naruto didn't know much about Princess Toki.

Unfortunately, there are too many derivative works of Revenge Princess. You don't want your brother's great revenge to go unfulfilled, do you? In the Land of Birds, you stumble upon the Daimyo's daughter.

The corrupted Toki, the surviving revenge! A crushing defeat, bound coffin in the dungeon, the Toki tortured!

Naruto was deeply impressed by the abundance of talented people online.

When it comes to revenge, Toki is a girl with a strong will.

The deaths of her father and brother deeply affected her. In order to seek revenge, she tied up her hair and disguised herself as her brother, Heron, to succeed as the Daimyo of the Land of Birds.

Hatred controlled her, and she had long since ignored all factors unrelated to revenge.

Naruto knew perfectly well that she didn't care whether the Konoha Ninja died, or even whether she herself would die. As long as she could get revenge, she would stop at nothing and abandon everything.

After careful consideration, Naruto ultimately decided to abandon the option of seizing power over the Land of Birds.

It's unrealistic to rely on the Revenge Princess to take over the Land of Birds. Although the Bird Country is small, it has all the essential parts. Land of Birds may not have outstanding ninjas, but it does have smart people like Hongming who are fearless and daring.

Controlling a country is far more difficult than simply fighting and killing; it's impossible to control a Revenge Princess alone. Moreover, this Revenge Princess is not easy to control; she's driven by revenge.

After much thought, I decided to finish the mission and run.

And so, to Toki's astonishment, Naruto calmly slapped her again.

"I am the Daimyo of the Land of Birds!"

"You're not him, your brother is. You're just an imposter." Naruto stared straight at her and said, "I advise you not to have any other ideas."

With that, Naruto stood up.

"You know the methods of ninjas, and you don't want your father and brother to die with such unrest, do you?"

"You!! What exactly do you want to do?" Toki asked through gritted teeth, her face red and swollen.

"I already said it, why don't you like to listen to others properly?" Naruto wasn't far from Toki; he could bump into her in just a couple of steps.

When Naruto's eyes fell on Toki's face again, the latter shivered violently.

They say you shouldn't hit someone in the face, and Toki didn't know what was wrong with this blond-haired guy from Konohagakure. He started slapping her several times without warning. As a fake Daimyo from the Land of Birds, her dignity was shattered.

But the man didn't seem to care at all, and even wanted to continue hitting.

This person is insane! Doesn't he have any concept of diplomacy? Doesn't he know the consequences of offending Daimyo from another country?

"Stop hitting me, I remember now," Toki said, looking down.

"Very good." Naruto took two steps back, his figure vanished instantly, leaving behind the words, "I'll be waiting for your good news, fake Daimyo."

Toki was quite clever. He led a group of people to the residence of the Imperial Preceptor Meng Zong and posted a proclamation along the street that the Imperial Preceptor Meng Zong was a wandering ninja.

They stormed the Imperial Preceptor's residence, uncovering evidence of Meng Zong's collusion with wandering ninjas, and rescued the strategist Hongming. Based on Hongming's testimony, Meng Zong and his entourage were convicted.

As Naruto had said, even though Toki was mentally prepared, he was still stunned for a long time before he could recover when he actually faced the truth.

Neji and Tenten specialize in Taijutsu, but Naruto is more skilled in Ninjutsu and assassination than the two of them.

Meng Zong's few wandering ninjas were not very strong. Naruto held his breath and quietly sneaked over, cleanly killing most of them.

[Under the Death Reaper's gaze, the Impure World Reincarnation (no sacrifice version) has been successfully implemented.]

As it turned out, the strategist Hongming was indeed intelligent. Before Meng Zong took him away, he had already arranged for people to notify Toki and even arranged for guards.

When all the truth is revealed and the dust settles.

Faced with the Revenge Princess, a fake Daimyo who succeeded to the throne in place of her brother, the strategist Hongming chose to continue assisting Toki as Daimyo after the death of the national advisor.

It was precisely because of people like Hongming in the Land of Birds that Naruto gave up the opportunity to exploit a bug and chose to end the Land of Birds mission early.

The matter has come to an end, but the impact has not disappeared.

Shortly after Naruto Neji, and Tenten left, the Land of Birds sent envoys to Konohagakure to request the Diplomatic Relations between the two countries.

After the mission was completed, Konohagakure had already entered late autumn.

The fallen leaves carried a hidden chill. Winter was fast approaching, and the wide Konohagakure Street seemed to have taken on a desolate and powerless air.

Tsunade gave Naruto a few days off.

When he got home and unlocked the door, Nine-Tails) peeked out from behind the sofa. Upon seeing Naruto's face, Kurama's eyes immediately showed disappointment.

How come you're not dead?

"The opponent was too weak, what a pity," Naruto said casually.

He walked into the living room, stood beside the sofa, lit the long incense stick that had already gone out, looked at his own photo in front of the three sticks for a moment, and stroked his chin as he spoke.

"It's a pity it's not black and white."

"I can't find the black and white ones." Nine-Tails turned to look at Naruto, its paws twitching, showing no interest in either of them.

"I'll take a black and white picture for you another day," he said, then went into the kitchen to start cooking, his voice carrying far away.

"During the time I was away, did that blonde girl come by?"

"No," Nine-Tails said while drinking. "No one has been here. You're worthless now, kid. Go find a new owner and buy me some more alcohol!"

The sound of rushing water came clearly from the kitchen.

Naruto stopped at the kitchen doorway, leaned against the door frame, and asked with a smile.

"Kurama, how's your backflip practice going?"

"I'm not practicing anymore." Nine-Tails picked up the wine bottle with its paw and chugdled it down. "Although I don't understand your human tricks, I later discovered that there are some things that even a backflip can't solve."

Naruto was leaning against the door, stood there laughing as if he had heard something funny.

The stove crackled and lit, a pale blue flame rising as it heated the oil in the pan. Two eggs were cracked into the pan and gradually took on the shape of the sun in the intense heat.

Sizzling steam rose as bacon slices were added to the hot oil in the other half of the pot. In another pot, various seasonings were poured in, and the broth boiled and churned under high heat.

Fruit is being rinsed under the tap, water droplets splashing around the pool and slowly sliding down the side of the pool.

Once all the food has released its aroma at just the right time, it is carefully packed into a food box by skillful hands, and the fruit is also cut and packed into the box.

After finishing all this, Naruto habitually cleaned up the kitchen. He carried the food container out of the kitchen and placed it on the dining table in the living room. He then went into his room, grabbed some clothes, and went into the bathroom.

"It's already dark, where are you going?" Nine-Tails- Tails asked listlessly towards the bathroom.

With a click, the bathroom light turned on, casting a warm and bright glow.

"Just trying to coax people," he said.
