Chapter 512 Unexpected People
The name Kiba was still unknown in the ninja world in the early years, but in recent years, with the renewed growth of the Hidden Rain Village, it has become more and more famous.

Especially in the Third Ninja World War that just ended, it had a brief war with the Land of Earth. The power unleashed by the Land of Rain even surpassed that of Hanzo of the Salamander back then.

Among them, the most famous is Yuying, who is called Ya.

The sword that shone brightly in the thunderstorm shocked the entire Land of Earth, forcing them to finally retreat.

According to outside rumors, in that battle, Ya from the Hidden Rain Village displayed swordsmanship power that surpassed that of the Iron Kingdom. With one sword, he cut the ground and desert in front of him in half, shocking the whole world.

It was a stunning sword strike that had never been seen in the entire ninja world.

In Xia Le's words just now, there was no sense of unfamiliarity when mentioning Ya. It was obvious that he already knew the other party and was quite familiar with and knowledgeable about everything in the Rain Country.

"You, you know Ya?!"

Fugaku said in shock.

"Of course!"

"Not only do I know him, in fact, you all know him."

Xia Le said with a smile.

"what?"

Fugaku's eyes widened, and then his expression changed.

This rain shadow called Ya really made him curious.

"Why, you don't want to be a shadow, Fugaku!"

Xia Le spoke again, with a smile in his voice.

But everyone could sense from his tone that he was not joking.

"I need to meet with Ya first."

Fugaku took a deep breath.

At this moment, he was unusually calm, suppressing the excitement and inexplicable restlessness in his heart.

film!
It was once a persistent thought in his heart, but it was eventually ruthlessly extinguished. For that position, he had made many efforts and had given up all expectations and hopes.

Now, the man in front of me made the promise so easily.

With just one sentence, you can become the Shadow of the Hidden Rain Village?

Even though he is just a shadow of a small country in the Rain Country, if he is given the task, with the support of the Uchiha clan, it is only a matter of time before he rises in the future.

"of course can!"

Xia Le smiled slightly.

The others looked at each other, confused but not asking any more questions.

At this moment, they only felt that this familiar Uchiha strongest had become a stranger. Not only was his strength unfathomable, but his plans for the future were even more difficult to see through.

A moment later, Yuying, wearing a straw raincoat and hat, walked in.

As he entered, everyone in the pub fell silent.

"It's Yuying's people!"

"Since that man took over, he has trained a large number of ninjas from the original Rain Country and recruited displaced orphans, providing them with food, clothing, and training."

"As time went on, several more groups of wandering ninjas were absorbed."

"The current Rain Country's combat power even surpasses that of the demigod Salamander Hanzo. Even the people of the five great nations have to treat Kiba with caution because of his great talent and strategy."

"..."

A low whisper was heard, echoing in everyone's ears.

Fugaku couldn't help but look at the person who came.

The Rain Ninja wearing a straw raincoat had a clear goal and strode towards them.

When he came in front of everyone, he took off his straw raincoat, revealing his red hair and the scar on his face. After smiling slightly, he spoke.

"Lord Yuying invites you, everyone please follow me."

Fugaku was startled and looked at Xia Le.

"Let's go! It seems that he has already noticed our arrival!"

Xia Le slowly stood up and said with a smile.

Everyone stood up one after another and put their hats on their heads to cover their faces.

The red-haired ninja also wore a hat and walked in front.

"My name is Jingtian, you can trust me completely, sir."

Hearing this, Xia Le nodded.

"There should be people from you all over the Hidden Rain Village, right?"

Ida nodded, "Although we don't have sufficient ANBU ninja like big countries like Konoha, the forces in the streets are under our control."

“So, as long as there are outsiders entering, Lord Ya will know about it immediately.”

Xia Le smiled and asked again, "Where's Orochimaru?"

"Lord Orochimaru secretly built a laboratory where no outsiders are allowed to enter."

Iida said.

The brief conversation between the two made everyone present open their eyes wide.

Wait, whose name did they hear?

Orochimaru?!

How could one of Konoha's three ninjas be here?

Fugaku and the others couldn't help but look at Xia Le, waiting for his explanation. But Xia Le just chuckled and didn't show any intention of explaining.

"If the Rain Country can have the participation of all of you adults, we will become much stronger."

"Although we are currently limited by our land area and lack resources, things will definitely get better in the future."

"Konoha was only established from a small village."

Iida said with a smile, ambition flickering in his eyes.

These words made Fugaku look up at him.

Obviously, this ninja who stays beside Kiba has considerable ambitions and aspirations.

"You want to build the Rain Country into an entity comparable to the five great nations?"

he asked in a deep voice.

Jingtian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I just hope that the civilians of this country can live a happy and peaceful life."

"And only with great power can peace be achieved."

These words made Fugaku stunned, but he quickly reacted and looked at the other person again.

Strength is the first guardian of peace!

If you are weak, you can only passively take the beating.

This is an eternal truth in the world.

But what he didn't expect was that a mere confidant of Ya had already understood this truth so deeply, and had the ambition to build the Hidden Rain Village into a big village comparable to the five major countries.

In his impression, such ambitions might only be possessed by the first generation of Konoha village founders.

What is more important than strength is the desire to create, build and defend.

For a moment, Fugaku fell silent.

He once again remembered what Xia Le had said before, asking him to become the Kage of this ninja village.

If all the ninjas in this village hold such a belief, then such a Kage is worth being and worth his full efforts.

But the prerequisite is that he has to meet the mysterious Yuyingya.

Will the other party listen to Xia Le's words? Will he encounter resistance when he becomes the Shadow of the Rain Country?
He was deeply impressed by the political oppression he encountered in Konoha.

A moment later, everyone followed Jingtian to the center of Yuyin Village, to the steel building, and to a room with the word "rain" engraved on the eaves.

The door was quickly opened, and the scene inside came into everyone's sight.

It was a simple house with only a wooden table, piles of paper documents, and a middle-aged man with his head down, flipping through the documents.

Hearing the door open, the man raised his head, and the bamboo hat that symbolized his shadow swayed, revealing a face that was familiar to everyone.

"Xia Le!!"

"You finally came!"

When the man saw everyone, he let out a long sigh and spoke loudly with excitement on his face.

Fugaku was completely stunned, and said stupidly: "Sakumo!?"

The others were also stunned and remained silent for a long while.

This person who appeared in the office of the Rain Shadow in the Hidden Rain Village in the Land of Rain, and who else could it be but Sakumo?

Who could have thought that the legendary Hatake Sakumo and White Fang who disappeared in Konoha would actually change their identities and transform themselves into the Kage of the Hidden Rain Village?

"Hahahaha!"

"It's me, Captain Fugaku!"

Hatake Sakumo laughed.

Then, he looked up at the red-haired Jingtian standing outside and said, "Jingtian, thank you for your trouble!"

Iida nodded and smiled, then closed the office door and stood there like a sculpture, not moving at all.

"Ida was the one I saved when I left Konoha and entered the Hidden Rain Village. He is trustworthy."

Sakumo said.

"Over the years, he has also assisted me in managing this village."

After a pause, he smiled again.

"Of course, this is all thanks to Xia Le's support."

"If it weren't for the new chakra extraction method he developed and his understanding of natural energy, it would have taken who knows how long it would have taken for the Hidden Rain Village to grow to its current size."

Then he motioned for everyone to sit down.

"Sakumo, you, you."

Fugaku was a little confused at this moment.

He didn't expect that the man known as Fang in the outside world was actually White Fang of Konoha.

"You didn't expect that, Patriarch Fugaku."

"I gave up everything for the village and friendship. I have disappeared and now I am hiding in the Hidden Rain Village and becoming a Kage!"

Sakumo said with a smile.

His words made everyone present nod secretly.

It was indeed unexpected.

Back then, Sakumo was a Konoha ninja whose missions were 100% successful and who had no bad records. He could abandon the village without hesitation for the sake of the village, and gave up the mission for the sake of friendship.

But it is hard to imagine that such a man would appear as a leader.

Because the opponent is the sharpest sword in Konoha.

"This is all thanks to Xia Le's suggestion."

"He asked me to come to the Hidden Rain Village to develop, because the Rain Country had become very chaotic because of his own efforts. The influx of various wandering ninjas made the lives of the civilians here become a mess."

"After I entered here, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I punished several forces."

"As a result, these wandering ninjas, fearing my power, chose to surrender."

"Afterwards, I taught some Genin from the Hidden Rain Village to improve their strength."

"With Xia Le's support, his men became more and more powerful. As time passed, they became the shadow of this village without him noticing."

Having said that, Sakumo laughed helplessly again.

"But I don't know how to govern a village!"

"So, I secretly sent letters to Xia Le for advice many times. He gave me a lot of advice and assured me that he would send a new person to take over."

"Until today, you finally came!"

When these words were spoken, Sakumo's eyes were already shining as he looked at everyone present.

"who is it?"

"Who wants to take over the shadow from my hand?"

Hearing this, everyone present looked at each other in surprise.

Why does the other party have such an expectant expression? This is the Kage of a village! Although it is only the Hidden Rain Village, he is still a Kage, with great power and in charge of many forces.

In terms of numbers, there are much more people than the Uchiha clan.

No matter how small the Rain Country is, it is still a country!
"Nagato? No, you're too young!"

"Xia Le? That's impossible. I know your character well. You are suitable to be the boss behind the scenes!"

Sakumo looked at everyone and shook his head.

Finally, he locked his eyes on Fugaku and grinned.

"That's you, Fugaku!"

"You are the most suitable person among this group to take over the position of Rain Shadow!"

Fugaku was still in a daze. He was completely confused by what Hatake Sakumo said.

"What? I take over as Rain Shadow?!"

After a while, Fugaku finally reacted and looked at Xia Le suddenly with wise eyes.

"You guys, do you have a conspiracy?"

Shuo Mao was stunned: "Huh?"

"Xia Le asked me to be Yu Ying, and you want me to be Yu Ying too?"

"You are still so excited and expectant. Is there something wrong with the shadow of the Rain Country?"

"Or is it a mess?"

Fugaku said cautiously.

Would the shadow of a village be handed over to someone else so easily? He didn't believe it at all.

The competition for the position of Kage in Konoha is so fierce and complicated that it is hard to imagine.

His words made Xia Le shake his head and laugh, and Shuo Mao was also stunned.

"You think too much."

Sakumo said helplessly.

"I'm really not suited to this position."

"It's fine for me to teach the little guys in the Rain Country, but it's too stressful for me to be the Kage and manage the entire village. I'm totally overwhelmed."

"I'm not a management type, Fugaku."

"Correspondingly, you, the Uchiha clan leader, are the most suitable candidate."

With a slight smile, he said again.

"Don't worry, Fugaku. Although the Hidden Rain Village is not as powerful as Konoha, it is thriving, both economically and in terms of strength. It is growing rapidly."

"I followed Xia Le's suggestion and built a ninja school in the Hidden Rain Village. I also allocated land to civilians to surround the Hidden Rain Village and expand the size of the village."

"Absorb a large number of civilians and turn them into ninjas."

"After doing these things, the growth of Yuyin Village is clearly visible."

As he said this, he took off the hat on his head and handed it to Fugaku.

"You do this shadow!"

"This is not just Xia Le's idea, it's also my expectation."

After a slight pause, Shuomao spoke solemnly again.

"After leaving Konoha, I lost my home, but this place feels like home to me again."

"And, I believe, this will be our new home in the future!"

Fugaku was stunned.

He felt the sincerity in the other person's words, not a test or a joke. Moreover, he knew Hatake Sakumo very well.

"Sakumo, I!"

Sakumo laughed and said affirmatively: "Rayin, from now on it's you!"

"This isn't Konoha, so there aren't so many troublesome rules."

"Things like Shadow can be decided with just one sentence."

Having said this, he let out a long sigh and spoke in a relaxed tone.

"I can finally put down my burdens and breathe the outside air."

"Only after becoming a Kage, will you know the joy of being a ninja!"

These words were full of emotion and made everyone look complicated.
