Chapter 40: The Exchange of Interests with the Landlord Daimyo

"Oh my, I'm so old. I don't understand you young ninjas at all."

Asama was moved, and he waved his hand vigorously, "Kid, I'm too tired. When I go back this time, I won't defect anymore. I'm old enough. Being a rebel is not suitable for me."

As he said that, Asama was about to return to the village, but suddenly he yelled, and Uehara hurried up to help him.

The back of Uehara's hand was still bleeding, and Asama couldn't bear it. Uehara seemed like a child at his age, "Where is the little girl who is responsible for treating you?"

"You said Uzumaki Aoi, she is too tired, I will give her a day off today."

Being supported by Uehara, Asama sighed, "Uehara kid, do you know that when the Sandaime inherited the position of Tsuchikage, he destroyed several families. Compared with him, you are too immature."

"So, under the leadership of Ohnoki, the Iwa ninja are becoming more and more in decline," Uehara smiled confidently, "I will not use dishonorable means to seek profits, and I will not be like him."

An ordinary but highly experienced chuunin, Uehara arrested him seven times and released him seven more times. Uehara did not harm him each time.

The first time he caught Asama, he almost cut off Uehara's arm with a knife. By the seventh time, Uehara still showed no hostility towards Asama, but Asama could no longer take action, but was full of hatred.

Ashamed.

There is a saying that if someone slaps you on the left cheek, turn the right cheek up. Depending on how you understand it, Uehara's magnanimity impressed many Iwa nin who were originally dissatisfied with him.

Attacking the city was the first priority, and attacking the heart was the first priority. He was arrested seven times and released seven times. Zhuge Kongming had done this before, and he captured the common man Meng Huo...

As Uehara worked tirelessly to capture the ninjas who had defected from the village, a process that lasted for two months, as the Iwagakure Village was gradually rebuilt successfully, the number of times the Iwagakure ninjas who defected and were recaptured by Uehara became more and more frequent.

More and more, Iwa Ninja's dissatisfaction with Uehara disappeared silently.

The price Uehara paid was that he was stabbed many times by Shinobu, many, many...

Uehara may be a magical Kage. He became a Kage as a rebellious ninja, and a quarter of the ninjas in the village killed him.

On the day when Iwagakure Village was completely completed, Uehara returned from the journey with a tired look on his face.

Uehara approached the gate made of a large tree felled from new growth, and found many Iwa ninja standing by the road.

"Uehara, a total of 2,151 ninjas have applied to cancel their ninja status." Fuuga came over and handed a thick stack of information to Uehara.

More than two thousand?

Before the war, there were nearly 15,000 ninjas in Iwagakure. In the war with Konoha, nearly 3,000 were killed and nearly 1,000 were captured and imprisoned by Uehara and Onoki. In the face of the three major ninja villages, including the Raikage,

After killing all the enemies within, there were only about 10,000 ninjas left in Iwagakure Village.

As many as 2,000 ninjas requested to cancel their status as ninjas. As a result, there were only 8,000 ninjas left in Iwagakure Village.

Looking at it from another perspective, the Iwa ninjas have already assumed that Uehara will be the next Kage.

Uehara glanced at those who had used someone else's hand softly and made others feel guilty. Those Iwa ninjas who had defected couldn't help but avoid Uehara's sight.

In the past, these ninjas had scratches on their forehead protectors to represent rebellious ninjas. It was Uehara who delivered brand new forehead protectors to them again and again. It was simply shocking. In comparison, those who defected

Iwa Ninja is just like an immature child who does things without considering the consequences.

"There are more than two thousand people." Uehara took the list and felt it was heavy.

"Okay, but before that, everyone needs to sign a petition for me. When I become a Kage recognized by the Daimyo, I will definitely agree to everyone's plan to live as an ordinary person."

Petition, what petition? Many Iwa ninjas looked at each other.

Half a day later, the petition signed by as many as 10,000 ninjas was completed. Uehara asked the ninjas in the village to protect the village, and he went to meet the daimyo with a heavy scroll.

It was the first time Uehara saw the Daimyo of the Land of Earth. He looked at the Daimyo up and down curiously but politely. The Daimyo was even more curious about Uehara. Iwagakure's miracle ninja was a monster that almost destroyed the ninja world.

, or an excellent commander who repelled the enemies who invaded the Land of Earth and defeated the Third Raikage. Regardless of his identity, the daimyo was full of curiosity about Uehara.

Uehara takes the spotlight for his good looks. He is tall, handsome and has a sunny smile. He is very approachable at first glance and is much easier to communicate with than Ohnoki, that bad old man.

"Your Excellency the Daimyo, this is a petition signed by the village ninjas to petition me to become the next Kage." Uehara respectfully pushed the heavy scroll in front of the Daimyo, "I am confident that I can protect Iwagakure and the Earth Country, and serve the Earth Kingdom.

The country will gain more benefits.”

"This is my ninja certificate and most of the mission completion information."

"And these are the specialties of Iwagakure Village that I brought to the daimyo. They are the most exquisite ninja swords in Iwagakure Village." Three ninja swords of different lengths are placed on the antlers. The luxuriously decorated ninja swords are eye-catching at first glance.

The cost is extraordinary.

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth smiled, waved his hand, and a servant took away the ninja sword.

He casually looked through Uehara's ninja certificate and put it aside. It seemed that the daimyo had little interest in it.

"But, Lord Uehara Toishi, you were previously accused of being a traitor by the village. How do you explain it?" The daimyo's eyes were bright and he was obviously not a drunkard.

"It was Onoki, the third Tsuchikage, who wanted to seize the power I established. It's only because he betrayed me." Uehara smiled, "Compared to the Kage who accused me of being a traitorous ninja, the ninjas in the village all petitioned me to be the next generation kage, daimyo.

How can we explain this strange phenomenon?"

"Ha," the daimyo smiled heartily, "Your Excellency is a ninja. Even if you force the ninjas to sign their names, it is very simple, right?"

"I did not force the ninjas in the village to sign. Furthermore, even if I could really threaten all the Iwagakure ninjas to sign the petition, wouldn't that just prove that Iwagakure Village is completely under my control?"

"In this case, there is no one more suitable to succeed the Fourth Tsuchikage than me, right?" Uehara had an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Moreover, there are ninjas loyal to the daimyo in the village. The daimyo should fully understand the inside story of Iwagakure Village."

In fact, as Uehara said, the Daimyo has been paying close attention to the whole process since the large-scale ninja defection. In fact, the Daimyo is still worried about this. The interests of the Ninja Village are closely related to the interests of the Earth Country, and the Daimyo is very worried about Iwa

The hidden village declined as a result.

But it was the young ninja who brought the petition in front of him, who used incredible methods to quickly eliminate the ninjas' continued defection. The common method in the ninja world to deal with rebellious ninjas is to kill, but Uehara used a more clever method.

The daimyo had already scored very high against Uehara.

In a secret room, the daimyo spread out a contract in front of Uehara.

"Aka River area?" Uehara frowned.

"Recapture the Akagawa area that was taken away by Konoha, Lord Uehara Tsuchishi, you will officially become the next Kage."

An exchange of benefits? Uehara understood.

"Your Majesty, please give me the Kage appointment first. Iwagakure Village is on the verge of disintegration. I need to get rid of my identity as a rebel ninja immediately and integrate the entire ninja village."

"And, it would be best if the Daimyo-dono goes to Iwagakure Village." Uehara sent an invitation to the Daimyo.

The Daimyo of Earth Country thought for a moment and agreed to Uehara's request.
