"The news of Kazekage's death has spread throughout Land of Wind. I don't know the reaction from Daimyo yet, but there are a lot of robbers and robbers popping up, and the ninjas in the village have to go and help deal with it for free..."
Walking in the desert of Land of Wind, Temari told Shirozumi about the current situation of Sunagakure along the way.
Land of Wind is a vast country with sparsely populated areas and mostly deserts. The population is basically concentrated in a few fixed places.
Except for the villages near Sunagakure, villagers in other places encounter bandits. It is difficult to go to Sunagakure to do the mission, and it is even more difficult to have money to do the mission.
"Is this "making the already poor family even worse"?
"Hmm."
Hearing what Shirozumi said, Temari surprisingly did not refute, but just agreed in a low voice.
"Did you forget something? Did you only remember the swimsuit photos? Inter-mutual Alliance ah Inter-mutual Alliance."
"..."
After being reminded by Shirozumi, Temari finally remembered that Shirozumi had said that he would go to him if he wanted to develop.
"When you are free, remember to compile a list of Land of Wind's specialties. The purpose of the Inter-mutual Alliance is to exchange what you have and develop the economy - this is not charity, this is mutual need."
Shirozumi and Temari explained the purpose of the alliance.
He vaguely remembered a few specialties of Land of Wind, including unique flowers and tropical fruits, and the varieties were not as good as Land of Water, but in terms of tuna species alone, Land of Wind was the best.
Yes, Land of Wind also has seafood.
It is poor, but its area is really big.
It is the largest in Five Great Nations in terms of area. The south and southeast sides are close to the sea, and there is a bay that goes deep into the land in the southeast.
"Do we need each other?"
Temari was mumbling, already starting to think about what specialties there are.
Just thinking about it, Temari suddenly felt something was wrong.
Where does Sunagakure get such great authority?
Even if Gaara becomes Kazekage, the only area that can be controlled is the area around Sunagakure.
Temari immediately thought of Land of Water and Land of Earth, which are no longer Daimyo.
"You don't want us to assassinate Daimyo, do you?"
Temari looked at Shirozumi in shock.
"Let me tell you a story."
Shirozumi did not answer directly.
"Story?"
"Hmm."
"Once upon a time, there was a believer in the goddess of fate. She believed that no one was more pious than her, and she would definitely be favored by the goddess of fate.
One day, her mother was seriously ill. Traveler Physician, who was passing by her village, wanted to help with treatment, but she refused.
She said, "I believe in the goddess of destiny, and she will naturally save my mother."
Then her mother died and she was devastated.
Another day, a businessman passed by and discovered that the village's specialty flowers could be used as medicine, so the villagers began to plant flowers and make a fortune.
Only she thinks that the goddess of fate will lead her to wealth, and she cannot accept charity from dirty businessmen.
So she was the only one in the village who continued to live in poverty.
Later, heavy rain continued near the village, and a man from the neighboring village came and persuaded everyone to leave the village to avoid being flooded by flash floods.
She still refused. She felt that the goddess of fate would definitely bless her.
This time she died.
She met the goddess of fate and asked her why she didn't help her even once since she believed so devoutly.
How do you think the goddess will answer?"
"The first time Physician, the second time the businessman, the third time the villagers from the next village, they were all sent by the goddess of fate to change her destiny, but she refused."

Konoha.
After experiencing a second, more terrifying experience, Naruto no longer trusts Boruto.
After Hiruzen Sarutobi learned about this incident, he personally came to persuade Naruto and told him that Boruto had his own reasons and it was not what he thought.
Anyone in the world can hurt him, but Boruto can't.
Naruto still respects Hiruzen Sarutobi. Under Hiruzen Sarutobi's sincere persuasion, he finally reconciled with Boruto again.
Moreover, Hiruzen Sarutobi also brought his grandson Konohamaru, along with Naruto and Boruto, to the woods outside the village to prepare to guide the three of them in their cultivation.
After some guidance, Konohamaru and Naruto secretly went to the river to catch fish, leaving only Boruto and Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that the time had come to make innuendo, and was about to say something, but found that Boruto was covering his head, looking like he had a headache.
"Child, what's wrong with you?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped forward and expressed concern.
"Uh..."
Boruto didn't answer. He was communicating with the voice in his mind using his consciousness.
[Idiot, that guy Urashiki is an idiot, and you inferior creatures are also idiots!]
[Plow clearly gave instructions, why didn't he follow them!]
Boruto heard the somewhat angry voice of Momoshiki and thought of the reminder that the turtle gave him and Sasuke when they first came to this era.
Tell them to have as little contact with Past people as possible and not to change Past, otherwise it will trigger a series of changes in the future.
After listening to Momoshiki's abuse, Boruto thought that Urashiki wanted to return to Past to arrest his father. Isn't that also a change Past?
Could it be that the current changes are caused by Urashiki?
[It shouldn't be. The fate of the three of us has nothing to do with you inferior creatures. It shouldn't be affected. How could I disappear...]
Boruto finally understood. The reason Momoshiki was so anxious was because he discovered that he himself would disappear.
"If you disappear, that's a good thing. Let's disappear together in this era. Don't go back and cause trouble to dad and the others."
Boruto now has faith.
[Scoff! Have you forgotten what I told you? You don't care about your disappearance, but what about your sister?]
[Not only your sister, but also your relatives and friends, they will all disappear!]
"...what happened?"
Boruto's beliefs have changed.
[Hmph, I also want to know what that idiot Urashiki did! What you have to do now is to correct this chaotic time and space, otherwise you and I, as well as your sister and friends, will all die!]
Momoshiki's voice repeatedly emphasized Himawari and Boruto's friends in Boruto's mind.
"Then, what should I do?"
Boruto compromised.
[Correct all errors, and then let "Rinnegan" use Genjutsu to adjust other people's memories and return time and space to normal.]
"I'm asking, what can I do to get time and space back on track!"
[...]
Momoshiki gave Boruto an example.
"No!"
[You have only two choices, let the fate that has happened get back on track, or let your sister or friend take over.]
"..."
[Substitute someone else, kid.]
"..."
"Boruto? Boruto? How are you?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi saw that Boruto looked in great pain and was a little anxious, so he was going to contact Tsunade to have a look.
When Hiruzen Sarutobi turned around and used the contact ninjutsu on Crystal Ball, Boruto behind him had completely lost his pained expression and stood up expressionlessly.
A faint blue Chakra appeared on Boruto, one of his eyes turned into Byakugan, and a horn grew above the eye.
"Let me think about it, what's that move called?"
"Oh, Rasengan."
sneer.
Hiruzen Sarutobi heard the movement behind him and was about to turn around when he saw a hand using Rasengan penetrate his chest.
The heart was crushed to pieces by the compressed Rasengan in an instant.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes went dark and he fell down.
Before he collapsed, he only heard the words "Dirty Monkey".
