Red sand dust

Normally, ninjas from different countries rarely meet several times in a lifetime. Once they meet, they will most likely be fighting each other on the battlefield.

Even allies like Sunagakure Village and Konoha Village only have more opportunities to show their faces if they often act as messengers between the two villages.

Most of the Konoha ninjas who came to Sand Hidden Village this time were allowed to enter Sand Hidden Village for the first time. Only the most famous "copy ninja" Kakashi Hatake had the most recognizable appearance, and the others were almost all unknowns.

Except for the leading "Konoha Technician", no one else had any intention of introducing them. The Suna Ninjas had no intention of asking except for focused observation.

When Daimaru appeared, Gaara and Hatake Kakashi, who were whispering something, stopped, and the others also turned to look at Daimaru with a look of trouble on his face.

"Are you done talking?"

Daimaru, who was not prepared to get involved in the first place, looked at the relaxed Suna ninjas and the Konoha ninjas who were waiting for Daimaru to come.

"about there!"

Gaara whispered,

"I'll leave the rest to you!"

"That's okay!"

Although I was reluctant, I couldn't help but there were enough benefits. The qualification to buy land with money was very attractive. It would be better if the transfer fee could be reduced.

"I won't say any more polite words..."

Looking at Kakashi Hatake, whom he had communicated with several times, Daimaru asked directly,

"When will we set off and how will the 'goods' be delivered?"

"Just ask Tsunade-sama to confirm at any time!"

Hatake Kakashi had expected the efficiency of ninjas. It is better to get important things done as soon as possible.

"The transportation method is up to you, and you can bring some of the redeemed supplies on your return trip..."

"no strings attached? This is good! 』

Daimaru felt relieved. Those who work in the service industry are most afraid of all kinds of troublesome customers. They deliver goods to your door attentively and are picky in every way.

Just when he was about to ask the Konoha ninjas to provide certification documents and set off immediately, the "Gen" ninja leader who was silent at first suddenly spoke:

"Send it to Lord Danzo, the price will be increased by 30%, and we will solve some troubles for you..."

Such a "you know" tone and attitude made Daimaru stunned for a moment, and then he laughed a little playfully:

"Didn't you say that we have already reached an agreement? Why, seeing as I am young, do you think I can threaten you? If you are troublesome, please come over. I like to beat up idiots who do not understand current affairs..."

"That was not what I meant……"

Daimaru waved his hand and interrupted the other party impatiently:

"I don't care what you mean! The internal strife in your village has nothing to do with the Suna Ninja. The one who trades and sells tailed beasts with us is the Leaf Village, not some shady 'black house'. We can talk to each other on an equal footing." Yes, only the person sitting in the Hokage's seat."

After glancing at Kakashi Hatake, who had a hint of embarrassment in his eyes, and Tenzo, whose expression remained calm, Daimaru calmed down a little and continued,

"After all, Konoha Village and Sunagakure Village are also allies who are stronger than gold. It is impossible to instigate internal relations between comrades who share life and death, so they will firmly support the Hokage... Well, who is the Hokage who supports whom! If you The 'Danzo-sama' in my mouth wants to sign for the 'delivery'. Please become the Sixth Hokage first. Finally, by the way, the four-tailed Jinchuuriki Old Murasaki is handed over to your village. How to develop in the future will depend on fair trade and Tōsou Mu. It has nothing to do with the Sunagakure Village being bullied..."

There is absolutely no after-sales service. How to deal with it is a problem for the new owner of the Four-Tails. Even if he is cutting slices to study how to make them into dishes, Suna Ninja is too lazy to meddle in his own business.

L?

Life and death?

Even Hatake Kakashi, who has seen many cheeky ninjas, was stunned by Daimaru's literary talent. His rich knowledge of idioms and his skillful use of them are truly amazing.

"Why don't you speak? It should be fine..."

Several young ninjas who were responsible for negotiating the specific conditions had strange faces. They wanted to laugh but felt it was inappropriate, so they had to hold it back. Their faces turned red from holding it in. Some of them couldn't help it anymore and turned around, their shoulders shaking constantly. It looked like It shouldn't look like he's crying.

"You are right!"

Kakashi Hatake, who already knew something about Daimaru's temperament, was still surprised by his "frank and frank" speech. Fortunately, the Konoha Jonin, who had experienced many battles, was well-informed and quickly adjusted his attitude and became generous. said,

"For the specific situation, the news has been sent back to Konoha Village through reverse spirituality. If you don't mind, you can set off now. Within three days, someone will be waiting for the 'goods' to be delivered to your door at any time!"

"That's good!"

Daimaru stepped forward, took the official diplomatic document handed over by Gaara, nodded to a few familiar people, said hello and left.

A few minutes later, he went straight to the cell where the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki Lao Murasaki was held, put the unconscious old man into the puppet ghost, and rose into the sky without stopping, disappearing into the dusky sand haze.

"By the way, can he bring a few more people into his flying puppet?"

Looking at the puppet that was quickly moving away, Hatake Kakashi suddenly asked,

"Why don't you take us back with you?"

Gaara coughed twice and replied softly:

"It's probably filled with some 'local specialties', so there's no room for you..."

You can actually make a lot of money by transporting some goods that are not suitable for storage in the time and space warehouse to Konoha Village thousands of miles away. Money is secondary. The key is that some precious things only accept barter; on the return trip It’s also good to buy some daily necessities for your own use that you can’t even buy in Sunagakure Village.

For example, last month, Daimaru was thinking about collecting a few gigantic pandas and bamboo plants adapted to arid and saline-alkali land, but he never found the right one. There was no place to sell these things. He could only entrust specialized people to collect and hunt them. .

"Now that things have been settled, let's go back!"

Tenzo, whose expression is close to facial paralysis, and three "root" ninjas who are indifferent and wearing masks are the mission companions. As the leader, Kakashi Hatake is really under a lot of pressure, and he is still a little bit different from his junior Tenzo who admires him more. There was a common topic, but the other few people had almost no communication throughout the whole process, and they didn't know if those "root" ninjas would cause trouble at any time.

Half an hour later, the spies from all sides of the hidden Sunagakure Village quickly spread the important information that Daimaru had escorted the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki to Konoha Village. Among them, Iwagakure Village was the most worried.

The four tails fell into the hands of the Suna Ninja and the Konoha Ninja. Onoki was not sure which one would be easier to redeem. It would be great if there was a way to intercept them halfway and snatch them back.
