"Is your next stop the Land of Water, Lord Torikaze?"
Torikaze shook his head. "Amado's homeland isn't in the Land of Water, and that place isn't suitable for research or hiding either, so there's no need to go."
Kirigakure was currently in a state of rebuilding from ruin.
The Fourth Mizukage had broken free from the genjutsu and was once again leading the village's recovery.
It could be said that Kirigakure had suffered the heaviest blow in its history, leaving them unable to recover anytime soon.
Even once they recovered, the disappearance of so many Kekkei Genkai ninja clans was destined to severely limit Kirigakure's future development.
Logically speaking, Torikaze should have rushed to Kirigakure, intimidated them with a show of force, then offered them some benefits.
That method had never failed, but he was in no mood for it now.
All he wanted was to find Amado and bring him back to Konoha to train him into a scientist!
As for his daughter with the terminal illness, as long as she was not dead, nothing was a problem.
Perhaps after finding Amado, Torikaze would be in the mood to visit Kirigakure and help them resolve their current troubles.
Kirigakure's strength had now greatly declined; they might not even be stronger than Sunagakure.
"All right, seeing that things are fine on your end puts me at ease. Keep working hard. Yahiko and Konan are both working hard too."
Nagato felt some pressure after hearing that, but he rather liked this sense of competition.
Competing with his friends did not affect their feelings for one another.
"By the way, Lord Torikaze, I didn't go to Konoha for the Spring Festival. Yahiko and Konan aren't angry with me because of that, are they?"
Konan also became a little nervous upon hearing this.
