While Hiruzen was mobilizing the various Konoha clans, Kazuki had already led Minato and his group out of Konoha.
This was Minato's first time leaving Konoha, and Kazuki constantly observed him along the way, finding that Minato didn't look around like others.
Kazuki believed he would be interested in everything outside the village, but he consciously maintained the behavior of an excellent ninja outside.
Then, Kazuki looked at Nawaki behind him. Nawaki had left Konoha more than once before, but his performance was far inferior to Minato's, the gap was not ordinary.
No wonder many people say Minato is the most outstanding ninja.
Normally, Minato was very amiable, like an optimistic, handsome boy, but when performing missions, he was a standard ninja.
During the Nine-Tails Incident in the future, Minato could have survived, but in the end, for Konoha's benefit, he not only made Naruto the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki but also actively sacrificed himself.
"Now you can relax a bit."
Kazuki felt that Minato was too tense, so he reminded him, "At least don't be so nervous, Minato. If you're , it might be difficult to fully exert your strength in combat. Of course, Nawaki is too relaxed."
Kazuki was very confident in his sensory ability. In the current Ninja World, almost no one's sensory ability was greater than his.
And at this moment, the effect of him asking Mito for Nine-Tails' Chakra earlier became apparent.
Although that part of the Nine-Tails' Chakra was not much and might not help him much in combat, it was enough to give him the ability to perceive good and evil.
Just like the White Zetsu hidden nearby, Kazuki could clearly sense them and find them, which was the most important thing.
Besides Kazuki, Rinka also possessed excellent sensory abilities.
Coupled with the Byakugan, their team's intelligence-gathering capabilities were outstanding.
"Yes." Minato let out a slight sigh of relief, visibly relaxing a bit.
"Kirigakure's troops haven't reached the Land of Fire yet, but it's not guaranteed that they won't send some ninjas ahead to the Land of Fire to gather intelligence, or even to cause destruction."
"On the way, if we encounter them, we'll deal with them. Other than that, we need to go into the Land of Water to gather intelligence."
"If we encounter any supplies, destroy them as much as possible."
Kazuki paused and then added, "As for whether to attack ordinary civilians, that's up to you."
"Attack civilians?" Nawaki's face turned pale.
Thinking about attacking civilians, Nawaki found it difficult to accept. Even though Orochimaru had taken him to see blood before, killing civilians was different.
Kazuki said in a low voice, "Ultimately, they are all people of the Land of Water. They create wealth and value for the Land of Water, and their taxes will become the development funds for Kirigakure."
"If it were them, they would also attack the civilians of the Land of Fire."
"So, in the end, it's always the civilians who suffer?" Nawaki frowned. Chapters first released on noⅴelfire.net
"Civilians and ninjas, I suppose. As for the Daimyo's Mansion, besides the loss of wealth, it doesn't seem to be significantly affected. After all, it's the people below who die."
Kazuki then added, "However, as far as I know, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has made a lot of money in the past two years."
At this, everyone else also looked at Kazuki.
Especially Nawaki, the current Daimyo was his uncle.
With the war starting, his uncle should lose a lot of money, right?
"As far as I know, some time ago, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind sent an envoy to the Land of Fire to purchase grain. They bought a large amount of grain at a price far exceeding the current market price. These grains are very likely purchased for Sunagakure. They will later become Sunagakure's supplies." Kazuki's gaze deepened.
At this, everyone could no longer remain calm.
You know, Konoha and Sunagakure had already started fighting, so how could the Daimyo sell grain to the Land of Wind?
Wasn't this a betrayal of Konoha?
At this moment, even if it was a relative, Nawaki was somewhat dissatisfied. If he were in the Daimyo's Mansion, he wouldn't mind pointing at his uncle's face and accusing him.
"Of course, after selling the grain, the Daimyo's Mansion also allocated a lot more supplies to Konoha." Kazuki immediately added.
Kazuki was usually with Mito and could know many things, and nothing could be hidden from Mito. It was just that she hadn't told Nawaki these things.
Ever since Kazuki learned Sage Mode, Mito had been cultivating his political awareness, and she had already begun to train Kazuki in certain matters.
"This... won't Hokage-sama be angry?" Nawaki quickly asked.
"With the Daimyo providing supplies, even if he is displeased, he can't say anything." Kazuki sighed lightly.
"After all, this time it was the Daimyo of the Land of Wind who actively came to purchase grain."
"The Daimyo had to give some level of respect, and besides, the Land of Wind ostensibly purchased grain for its people, which was also reasonable."
"It's already quite good that they are willing to give Konoha some supplies. At least it's acceptable on the surface."
"Damn it!" Nawaki was still deeply dissatisfied.
Kazuki glanced at Nawaki. Indeed, he still didn't understand politics, and with this personality, he couldn't become Hokage.
Of course, if it were Kazuki himself, if the Daimyo dared to fool him like that to his face, he would directly use Susanoo and go to the his mansion to cause destruction.
You want to make money? I'll just make you lose your life. Go make money in the Pure Land.
Kazuki is not yet Hokage, and there's no need to expose the idea of becoming the First Emperor of the Ninja World so early.
Moreover, no one knows why the Daimyos can be so fearless. Perhaps they have some kind of backing.
Until he had enough strength, Kazuki would not rashly do anything too crazy.
Who knows if Hagoromo has already set his sights on him?
And there are other Ōtsutsuki in the Ninja World, what if this is their scheme?
