Konoha: Be cautious from Hinata

After hearing Hinata Zang's words, Putian Taro hesitated to speak, looking hesitant.

Suddenly, Hyugazo frowned. Could it be that Taro Putian is in trouble?

At Hyugazo's request, Putian told the truth and told him about the trouble he had encountered recently.

It turned out that in order to speed up the expansion of the Chamber of Commerce, Putian attracted many nobles from the Fire Country to join the Chamber of Commerce. With the joint efforts of both parties, the Chamber of Commerce's industries spread throughout the Fire Country and gradually spread to the outside world.

But as the cake expanded, several nobles were not satisfied with the existing distribution of interests.

There is a vague alliance to exclude Putian, trying to find the person behind Putian, or some people simply speculate that Putian is just an ordinary person who got a chance, and they are simply pretending to be powerful.

The reason why Putian hesitated was because he was worried that Hyugazo would weigh the pros and cons and replace him as the person in charge.

"Where are your guards?" Hyugazo asked. After the Chamber of Commerce was established, he sent the remaining controlled ninjas to assist Putian Taro in his work.

"A small number of guards are still loyal, and most of the guards remain neutral. They seem to be planning to side with the winner."

Putian replied obediently, feeling relieved that the leader was still on his side, and he had only witnessed the leader's strength not long ago.

"It seems those people have forgotten!"

Hinagazou snorted, and then he remembered that he had erased their memories in order to ensure safety, and he suddenly felt embarrassed.

Then, Hyugazo asked about the addresses of those nobles, and Putian told them one by one, and asked not to make too much noise. After all, peace is the most important thing in business.

Hyugazo is a good-natured person, he is not a ninja who likes to fight and kill.

Half a day later, under the leadership of Putian, Hyugazo disguised as a guard came to the prosperous capital of the Fire Country. Although the Fire Country did not specify the location of the capital, this was where the daimyo lived after all.

Walking on the bustling street, Hinata looked at the pedestrians on both sides of the street, including many ninjas.

Although the number of ninjas here is not as good as that of Konoha, it is still a large number. Hinata Zang even sensed the existence of chakra in some wandering samurai.

We walked and stopped all the way until we arrived at the Chamber of Commerce's headquarters.

Putian took out a map with the nobles' residences marked on it.

Hinata Zang looked at Putian, who was not completely ignorant of those nobles.

Directly ask who the nobles who have the greatest influence on the Chamber of Commerce are. Putian sends a greeting card, and Hyugazo and Putian directly visit them.

Not long after, Hinata Zang and Putian met the nobles.

He was a middle-aged man with a big belly. As soon as he came up, he greeted Putian sadly.

Hinata Zang didn't have much time to talk nonsense. After entering the mansion, he immediately took control of the Chuunin nobles, directly revealed his identity, and left a curse mark on the middle-aged nobles.

Next, under Putian's guidance, the remaining disobedient nobles were also taught a lesson by Hinata Zang.

If they were given a big stick, they would also be given a sweet date. Hyugazo gave them considerable chakra, making them addicted to power, and renegotiated the distribution of benefits.

Blind control will only arouse their dissatisfaction, and even lead to failure.

After sending away the beaten nobles, Hyugazo planned to return to the organization's headquarters.

It is worth mentioning that among the nobles just now, someone actually hired a bounty ninja and accidentally contacted the Akatsuki organization. Fortunately, the amount was not finalized.

Otherwise, provoking the Akatsuki organization would be a big trouble for Hyuga Zang today.

He has no idea of ​​contacting the Akatsuki organization for the time being. The Akatsuki organization, which quietly accumulates strength and makes money, can be regarded as the strongest force in the ninja world today.

Not long ago, he had a battle with Toneri who had the chakra of the reincarnation eye, and he didn't want to provoke the reincarnation eye again.

On the way back, the team of the Chamber of Commerce was stopped and forced to stop moving forward. After Putian stepped forward to inquire, it became clear that the owner of the capital, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, was about to pass by, and everyone must give way.

It is said that the road was closed for a long time, and Hinata Zang and Putian simply entered a restaurant.

While dining on the second floor, Hinata looked out the window, and the daimyo's team happened to pass by.

The daimyo was sitting in a small sedan carried by four people. His guards were evacuating the surrounding crowd, and there were many Konoha ninjas secretly protecting him.

"There was no kneeling scene..." Holding the teacup, Hinata sighed secretly.

And just at this moment, the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, revealing the daimyo's thin face, looking towards where Hinata Zang was.

It is hard to imagine that the name of the nominal ruler of the Fire Country is actually weak and rather ugly.

The daimyo just glanced around the street and then returned to the sedan, without meeting Hinata's eyes. The place Hinata was looking at was the bearded ninja hiding on the eaves.

The bearded ninja is none other than his old friend, Sarutobi Asuma.

After running away from the village in anger, Sarutobi Asuma got the job of guarding the twelve ninjas and the title of jounin.

As one of the twelve jounin members, he silently protects the safety of the daimyo.

Although there is an unspoken rule in the ninja world not to attack daimyo, some people will take desperate risks if they are not protected.

As for guarding the Twelve Ninja, it's hard to say whether it's protection or surveillance. Maybe it's both.

At this time, Asuma also looked in the direction of Hinata Zou. Hinata Zang lowered the brim of his hat, avoided his sight, and continued to talk to Putian about some matters at the chamber of commerce.

"Who was looking at me just now?"

Asuma scanned the surrounding area and couldn't find the source of the prying eyes, so he took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and lit it silently.

A cigarette after a meal makes you feel as happy as a god.

As the saying goes, everything has two sides. When he left the village and lost the old man's nagging, he also gained a lot.

The Daimyo's team soon left, and the streets resumed their bustle.

Hinata Zou thought of Asuma's father Hiruzen, the old man sitting in the position of Hokage, who was more like the ruler of the Fire Country than the Daimyo of the Fire Country.

After pondering for a while, Hyugazo looked at Putian and said: "Putian, why do you think the daimyo is a daimyo instead of a powerful ninja?"

After Putian heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he asked in a low voice: "Does the leader want it?"

Hinata shook his head: "I don't have that idea, I'm just asking for your opinion."

"The daimyo is a daimyo because his father is also a daimyo. As for why he is not a ninja, it may be because of habits and rules."

Putian breathed a sigh of relief and answered cautiously. He did not dare to challenge the authority of the daimyo.

"Really..." Hinata looked at Putian, and seemed to be very satisfied with Putian's answer. It seemed that Putian would not make moves that would defeat the superior. He was not as sharp as he was aggressive, but he would not lose his success.
