The Third Hokage's haggard face immediately darkened.
Daimyo's Court!!!
Why?!
Why would they do this?
What are you all being so cryptic for? Say it already!!
Utatane Koharu, who either had not thought it through or simply had no brain to think with, could only fret helplessly.
Watching her pace about anxiously, Jingyi said with a smile,
"I know one of them. He came from the Daimyo's Court. His body was taken back to the Anbu, and we dug up some interesting things from it."
"What? The Daimyo's Court? How could that be possible?!"
Utatane Koharu cried out in shock.
"Shut up!!!"
Unable to stand this old woman's constant shrieking, Tsunade shot her a glare. Could she not just be quiet for once?
Even with a brain, she did not know how to use it. They had already said that was the end of it, yet she kept asking.
"What was the reason?" Tsunade asked.
Whether it was the Daimyo's Court targeting Konoha or Konoha targeting the Daimyo's Court, neither was something Tsunade could tolerate.
To her, only sincere cooperation between the village and the Daimyo's Court could allow both the village and the Land of Fire to develop better, rather than opposing each other, holding each other back, and sabotaging one another.
Jingyi spread his hands and looked at the Third Hokage meaningfully.
"Some time ago, important nobles at the Daimyo's Court were repeatedly assassinated. It frightened all those officials and nobles so badly that they fled to the village for shelter. They only returned to the Daimyo's Court after everything had calmed down."
"The Daimyo's Court was dissatisfied with Konoha's investigation results, so they hired outsiders to investigate. The results made the Daimyo very angry."
"This information was uncovered from the corpse of one of the Daimyo's aides."
