The Daimyo of the Land of Fire's True Self
Kanami pondered for a long time.
The words of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire were not entirely without merit.
There's no point in letting people who have never developed their own thoughts go free.
They might even die because no one is there to push them.
"But this cannot be a reason for us to restrict their freedom."
Kanami said earnestly.
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire shook his head slightly. "Why must it be about binding them? Is it possible that our existence Feudal Lord actually saves them? Or serves as their driving force?"
"But essentially there's no difference; the position of Feudal Lord should never have existed in the first place."
Kanami and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire were having a heated discussion.
Hinata Hyuga nearby, looked on in bewilderment as the two of them chattered back and forth.
At first, I could think about it a little and felt that both sides made some sense.
But later on, she began to wonder if these two people were even speaking human language.
How come I can understand each byte individually, but not when they're put together?
The two engaged in a heated discussion.
The two didn't stop even after Tsunade walked in.
"What... what's going on?"
Tsunade watched blankly as Kanami and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire walked closer and closer.
Anyone who didn't know better would have thought they were about to kiss.
"Lady Tsunade... I don't know what's wrong with them, they suddenly started having a crazy discussion."
Hinata said weakly.
Tsunade: "..."
"Whatever... as long as Kanami doesn't intend to kill the Feudal Lord, I don't care whether they're discussing things or kissing."
"Kiss?!"
Hinata's eyes widened. "That won't do!"
It was only then that she noticed that Kanami had let go of her hand without her noticing.
They're practically slapping the face of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire on their faces!
Hinata had already pictured the scene of Kanami and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire kissing.
She absolutely cannot accept it!
Her face flushed instantly. "Kanami! Don't kiss him!"
A tremendous sound rang out.
Kanami, who was in the middle of a heated discussion with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, was suddenly stunned.
"What?!"
"I?"
"I want to kiss the Daimyo of the Land of Fire?!"
He pointed to himself, looking completely bewildered.
"How could I! How could I possibly kiss this old man!"
It was only then that he realized he was perhaps a little too close to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire!
He quickly retreated.
They retreated a very long distance.
It was pressed tightly against the wall.
In short! The position of Feudal Lord is absolutely impossible!
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire also took a few steps back, but he didn't stop talking, still retorting, "No, the Feudal Lord must exist, even if it's in a different form."
But it must be present, even if it's a king, monarch, or Emperor! But it absolutely cannot be left blank.
"If we leave ourselves free, it will cause the deaths of many people."
He showed no intention of backing down.
Kanami shook his head, "I can't be a substitute for any Feudal Lord."
I don't want to be tied down by anything; there are too many Feudal Lord and complicated things to deal with.
Tsunade interjected at this moment, "I have a good idea!"
Upon hearing this, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and Kanami both turned to look at her. "What's your idea? Tell me?"
The two said in unison.
Tsunade was startled by the two's eagerness.
She had initially thought she was rushing over to collect the corpse of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
It seems the two are almost good friends.
Now it seems like they've formed a united front.
"Why not just change the title of the Feudal Lord's position, and then let the Feudal Lord himself take over the management? Then you Kanami, can hold the Feudal Lord position with a different title."
"Wouldn't it be perfect if others thought you were in charge?"
Tsunade said what she wanted to say.
Upon hearing this, Kanami frowned slightly.
"Isn't this no different from before?"
"There's a difference," the Daimyo of the Land of Fire interjected. "The difference is that I'm not the one who holds the position of Feudal Lord; it can be subtly changed, and you can gradually step down according to your own wishes."
Then it will make more people realize that even without the position of Feudal Lord, they can still live a good life, as if they can move forward even without a whip.
"The idea is good, but it's still difficult to implement."
"While a unified approach could be chosen, it is also more difficult to achieve."
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire spoke earnestly.
Kanami glanced at him, then nodded. "Alright, let's do it this way. I'll be nominally the Emperor."
"Alright, then I will announce my abdication, and Akane, that is, Kanami, will inherit the position of Feudal Lord. I will then change the title to Emperor, and incidentally, I will also abolish the names of the Five Great Nations."
The Five Great Shinobi Villages will be officially transformed into ordinary Autonomous Villages.
"You handle it. Just contact me when you need me. Goodbye."
After Kanami finished speaking, he grasped Hinata's hand and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to fly back.
The remaining Daimyo of the Land of Fire and Tsunade exchanged a glance.
"I told you, even if I met Kanami, he wouldn't beat me to death."
"Daimyo of the Land of Fire said confidently."
Tsunade nodded slightly, offering no rebuttal.
Because the other party really didn't die.
She couldn't find any points to refute it.
"Tsunade-hime, you still know too little about me."
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire picked up his Small Fan again and covered his mouth, adopting a lewd expression.
However, Tsunade's gaze towards the Daimyo of the Land of Fire in front of her has gradually changed.
It seems I really misjudged him; I never expected that Feudal Lord would actually possess such an ability.
Despite having virtually no Chakra, she was able to engage in direct communication with Kanami without any stage fright.
Is this really the Daimyo of the Land of Fire that I remember?
She inwardly grumbled.
She also remembered that during every meeting, no matter what time it was, the other person would always cover their mouth with a fan, looking timid and submissive.
In his earlier years, he even feared Danzō Shimura, terrified that the latter would kill him.
Is this the real him? How can he hide it so well?
"So, unless he's threatened, he just pretends to be stupid all the time?"
Tsunade sighed, returned to the Hokage's chair, and began to attend to her own affairs.
"It seems that the position of Hokage is relatively easy now."
Meanwhile, numerous Anbu Ninja from Konoha Village moved all the corpses of the Ninja who had been killed in the village to an open space.
"Earth Release - Earthquake!"
Several Anbu quickly Hand Seals and slammed their hands onto the ground.
After a tremor, a deep crater appeared in the ground.
Seven or eight hundred corpses were thrown down.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique."
Several Anbu Ninja used an enormous Great Fireball Technique on the pit, instantly burning it to ashes.
