Chapter 121
The Akito sat down casually.
Master Shinnō sat on the right.
Pakura then walked in from outside and sat to Akito's left.
Guren stood behind Akito.
The Asuka sits in the center.
Akito casually picked up a document, which was a summary of Asuka's arrangements for the village over the past few days.
"Everyone is in their proper place, everyone is doing their job, and everyone's strengths are being used in the right positions... that's good."
The Akito provided a conclusion.
Faced with the casual attitude of the Akito.
Not a single person present expressed dissatisfaction.
After all, that terrifying strength already speaks for itself.
Akito put down the documents and looked at everyone. "Don't worry, everyone. Apart from crushing my opponents with strength, I'm not good at anything else, so I won't take your jobs."
After calming everyone down, Akito continued.
"If I'm not mistaken, the daimyo of the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire will likely continue to put pressure on the Daimyo of the Land of Rain. I'm afraid... our funds and supplies will soon run into problems."
"..."
The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
If that's really the case, what should we do?
"It's very simple."
The Akito suddenly became expressionless.
"I can go to the Daimyo of the Land of Rain myself."
58. The problem isn't me, it's the world!
Half a day later...
The capital of the Land of Rain.
An unexpected guest arrived at the main hall.
Aburame Shikuroo, wearing a protective suit, had her hands in her pockets.
He looked like a rather eccentric middle-aged man.
And also because of the characteristics of the Aburame Clan.
They... have very little presence.
Therefore, the guards only discovered Aburame Shikuroo's arrival when he infiltrated the daimyo's residence.
"I... hate being ignored."
Aburame Shikuroo adjusted her sunglasses.
Even though he had long since become a legendary insect user renowned throughout the ninja world.
They will still be ignored.
The same applies to the previous Ryūka Uchiha incident.
It took him quite a while to realize he was standing next to Orochimaru, who was watching the battle.
When Aburame Shikuroo is feeling down.
The guards surrounded them.
Name.
He is the ruler of a country.
There are some countries in the ninja world that do not have ninja villages.
But there must be lords and daimyo.
The Daimyo of the Land of Rain is no different from other daimyo of countries with ninja villages.
In addition to the guards composed of ordinary people, there was also a small number of private soldiers made up of ninjas.
Just like the Twelve Guardian Ninja of the Land of Fire.
Certainly.
Not every daimyo has private ninja soldiers.
Daimyo of the Land of Wind, Daimyo of the Land of Lightning, and Daimyo of the Land of Earth, for example, relied entirely on their own ninja villages for personal protection.
As the guards surged forward.
Aburame Shikuroo stood motionless in place.
I advise everyone...
Aburame Shikuroo spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Don't do it."
Before he could finish speaking, the guards swarmed forward.
But the next moment...
Something amazing happened.
Suddenly, they fell to the ground as if struck by an invisible force, thudding to the floor.
This bizarre and inexplicable scene.
The officials and the Daimyo of the Land of Rain present were terrified.
"They're ninjas from the Aburame Clan!"
At this moment, the daimyo's guards finally realized that the man in front of them should be the insect user of the Aburame Clan from Konoha.
In other words...
The guards who had fallen to the ground around them had likely been bitten by tiny poisonous insects.
"Let me introduce myself."
Aburame Shikuroo raised her head and looked at the crowd.
"I am Aburame Shikuroo of Konoha. I have come here today to offer some advice to His Highness the Daimyo."
Laugh!
A Kunai sliced through the air and flew swiftly toward Aburame Shikuroo.
Then, Kunai.
But the next moment...
Aburame Shikuroo exploded, turning into a cloud of purple smoke.
Then, the smoke spread rapidly.
It swept outwards in all directions like a shockwave.
Instantly, the bodies that were swept away were all stained with a deep purple color.
The poisoned body rapidly deteriorates, cells are destroyed, and life is lost.
This scene.
The officials, terrified, quickly retreated, surrounding the Daimyo of the Land of Rain.
Aburame Shikuroo simply stood there, creating a clone.
The center of the main hall was transformed into a hellish place filled with nanoscale poisonous insects.
"I already told you, I advised you not to make a move."
The next second.
Aburame Shikuroo emerged from behind a pillar, reached out, and grabbed the head of the ninja guard who had just thrown the Kunai.
Amidst screams of agony.
The purple color spread from the top of his head to his face, but before it reached his neck, he was already dead.
Thump.
The body collapsed limply to the ground.
Aburame Shikuroo casually killed a ninja and put his right hand back into his pocket.
An ordinary action created an extremely terrifying scene.
"Water Release..."
The next moment.
A high-pressure water wave rushed over.
Aburame Shikuroo didn't even glance at it.
With a flash, he disappeared without a trace.
Then, a cloud of purple smoke suddenly appeared in the air.
The wisp of smoke swept past the ninja who was performing the Water Release, turning his entire body a deep purple before he instantly lost his life...
"Your Highness, may we now have a proper conversation?"
Aburame Shikuroo emerged from behind another pillar and spoke expressionlessly.
Soon...
A familiar face appeared in Amegakure.
He... is an official of the Land of Rain.
They are responsible for daily communication with Amegakure and represent the will of the Daimyo of the Land of Rain.
And today, he came here for...
"Everyone, I'm sorry to say, but starting today, we will be cutting off Amegakure's funding and supplies."
The civil official's opening remarks shocked everyone.
"The capital of the Land of Rain is several hours' journey from Amegakure."
The Akito, who was sitting in the chair, stood up.
What takes a regular ninja several hours is but a few minutes for him.
Everything was as expected.
Konoha and Sunagakure exerted pressure on the Daimyo of the Land of Rain through official negotiations.
They wanted to cut off Amegakure's economic resources, leaving them without any supplies or resources.
"You are...?" The official glanced at the Akito, already having a guess in his mind.
The Akito looked at him and said, "If you're being threatened, blink twice."
Soon.
The Akito left the tower.
Preparing to travel to the capital of the Land of Rain.
What are you planning to do?
Shinnō looked at his disciple and asked with great interest.
Asuka and Pakura stood behind him, also watching Akito.
