Konoha's traitor master

Chapter 219

The new year is approaching and it’s starting to snow in Konoha

Not long after, the three members of the Akatsuki organization - Nagato, Konan, and Shisui - came to the Land of Fire again, and this time they obtained permission to enter Konoha.

"Is this the most prosperous village in the ninja world?" Nagato exclaimed as he entered the streets of Konoha for the first time.

"It is indeed completely different from the scene in the Land of Rain." Xiaonan also felt a little emotional.

In the Land of Rain, even the Hidden Rain Village where the leader Hanzo is located is quite a depressing scene.

The war-torn areas outside Amegakure Village are simply hell compared to Konoha.

"Madara, is this your first time coming to Konoha?" Nagato asked Shisui, who was somewhat silent.

"That's not true. Our ancestors also left some connections in Konoha. Although they are not frequent, I can still be a competent guide for a simple stroll." Shisui's tone was a little weird again, mainly because of this.

He didn't know how many times he had walked down the street.

Shisui still wore a mask, which didn't attract anyone's attention, because it was normal in the ninja world to wear strange clothes.

Of course, he took off his mask when he came in for inspection. With Orochimaru's 'face-erasing technique', there would be no flaws.

"Let's do business first." Xiaonan reminded.

"That's fine." Nagato nodded.

They were able to officially enter Konoha because Yahiko had already completed the application for the establishment of an 'international non-governmental organization' during this period of time.

This was obtained from the transaction between Yahiko and Aoye. Of course, Aoye was actually very concerned about Akatsuki's affairs.

After Yahiko's proposal and Aoba's assistance, the Ninja Alliance established a department that specifically conducts qualification reviews and official endorsements for organizations that are not part of the village government.

In fact, all countries have a need for this, and ninjas are not just those in the ninja village.

Outside of Ninja Village, there are a very large number of Ninjas existing in units such as wandering Ninjas, Ninja Families, mercenary organizations, and even small villages.

Of course, they are not necessarily called ninjas. There are also other names, such as the ninja monks of the Fire Temple.

The relationship between these individuals or organizations and the Ninja Village is inextricably linked, and they also have a certain need for the endorsement of the Ninja Alliance.

Therefore, Yahiko's proposal was passed easily.

"Then let's go directly to the Ninja Alliance Building. Wait, let me look at the map." Shisui Zhuang pretended to take out the map he received at the gate of Konoha, and then pointed in a direction.

...

When the three Nagatos were going through the procedures in the Ninja Alliance, they were in the root underground base.

Aoba and Orochimaru are conducting experiments.

"Aoba-kun is indeed the person I am most optimistic about, and you can still be patient at this time." After a test operation was completed, Orochimaru said to Aoba while taking off his gloves.

"Hahaha, Uncle Snake is so complimentary, I'm just lazy." Qingye told the truth.

After the framework of the trade center was completed and the proposal for settlement of trading certificates was approved, Aoba began to act in a low-key manner.

Because of the affairs of the Ninja Alliance, he has been somewhat high-profile recently. Aoba will not forget the fear of Konoha's high-level officials towards his expansion of power.

Moreover, after the framework is set, the benefits he needs have been obtained, and Qingye does not intend to interfere with subsequent trivial matters.

Even though he seems to be working overtime every day, Aoba will never take the job when he can fish.

"It seems that Aoba-kun's gains this time are not small." Orochimaru pointed out.

On the surface, it seems that Aoba's actions are all for Konoha, and there is no fault in what he does.

But Orochimaru, who believed that Aoba had his own ambitions, felt that Aoba's actions must have his own interests.

"It can be considered a bit of a gain." Qingye said perfunctorily, but he didn't completely deny it.

This time the entire ninja world alliance was established, and Aoba thought he was the biggest winner.

The passage of several proposals has made the Ninja Alliance gain weight in the hearts of various countries, which is the benefit of long-term planning.

What is even more realistic is that as the actual controller of a mysterious organization with commercial tentacles throughout the Ninja world, Aoba is of course the biggest beneficiary of the expansion of trade among various countries.

The trade between Ninja Village is similar to the material trade between the Three Kingdoms and Sunagakure Village last time.

Ninja Village itself is not involved in production, so the actual transaction will eventually fall on the Chamber of Commerce, and the seller Ninja Village is actually a 'middleman' in it.

Ninja Village, the buyer and seller, is the leader of the trade, but the entire transaction process is broken down into tasks issued by the Chamber of Commerce to Ninja Village.

This is why countries are very actively involved, because middlemen do not stockpile goods, which means there is no risk. At the same time, they avoid the worry of being picked on by big names, and they can eat both sides.

You can earn the price difference, and you can also earn the commission for escorting the Chamber of Commerce mission.

The Ninja Village can earn a lot of profits from every trade, but this does not mean that the Chamber of Commerce has no profit at all.

At least Aoba, which has achieved monopoly in a large number of fields, is definitely profitable.

With pricing power in hand, no matter how much the Ninja Village can eat, Aoba will definitely make a profit in the end.

"Hehehe, Aoba-kun, please don't forget about building a village in Tian Country. Building a village requires a lot of funds." Orochimaru didn't care about Aoba's perfunctory words.

The main reason he mentioned this matter was because he received information that Nagato had entered the village.

This means that preparations for Tian Nokuni's plan can begin, and he needs to remind Aoba to prepare funds.

"Leave the funds to me." Qingye said confidently.

He also received news that Nagato had entered the village, but this time he didn't have any bold ideas.

After all, this is in the village. If it is not handled well, Aoba's more than ten years of hard work in Konoha will be in vain.

"That's good." Orochimaru nodded. He was actually very concerned about building the village.

Orochimaru has his own ideas politically, but he also knows that he has no chance in Konoha.

He knew that Tsunade's reputation could not be competed with, so he gave up the competition for the position of Hokage after three battles.

As for the younger generation after Tsunade, he estimated that their chances of winning were also slim.

But the Otogakure Village in Tianno Country is different. This is a blank piece of paper that can be used by Orochimaru at will.

...

Night, commercial street intersection

"Then let's disband tonight temporarily. I will not participate in the gathering of the three of you." Zhisui made a very generous appearance.

In fact, he had long wanted to leave the two of them and go see the family and Qingye.

"Madara, you are also a companion now, there is no need to deliberately avoid it." Nagato said nonchalantly, looking like a leader.

"Haha, you don't need to talk about business tonight. It's best to discuss business at the embassy, ​​so I'll leave first." Shisui didn't wait for Nagato to refuse and left immediately.

"Madara guy." Nagato shook his head. He actually really wanted to keep Shisui here and was not pretending.

No matter how mysterious Shisui's identity is or what his purpose is, what they are doing now is the 'right' thing.
