Mixed in the Hokage cultivation road

Chapter 172 The Conditions of Takikage Village
"I don't know how long Takikage will take, please give me a specific time."

Kakuzu then put pressure on Takikage Tianqingcheng, not allowing them too much time to think.

People are like this. When facing difficulties, they think too much and always have unrealistic fantasies.

This will easily lead to many variables. The only way is to cut the Gordian knot and force them to make a decision as soon as possible. In this way, the threat from the Ninja Village will become the best weapon to overwhelm their psychological defenses.

"It will take at least half a month. This matter is not that simple. Not only do we need to discuss it with the elders, but we also need to seek the opinions of the village."

Tian Qingcheng's face looked a little ugly, and he was a little dissatisfied with Kakuzu's relentless pressure.

"It's too long. Three days, please. After three days, please ask Takikage to give us an answer from the Ninja Village."

How could Kakuzu agree to them wasting so much time! He still needed to go to other countries, and the time in the Ninja Village was the most precious.

Their enemies want to kill them all the time, so they don't have time to waste with them.

"Impossible! The time is too short! We can't even gather all the staff. It will take at least ten days!"

Tian Qingcheng didn't agree at all. His original intention was to delay time to see if he could contact the five major ninja villages, cause trouble for the Ming Ninja Village, and help the Taki Ninja Village escape this disaster.

Although Takikage was shocked by the dark information about the ninja world revealed by the Meininja Village, and admired their great ideals, he was still very hesitant to let Takininja Village join them.

After all, the philosophy of this village has always been not to participate in the struggles in the ninja world and to live its own life.

If they really join the camp of the Meininja Village, I wonder how many ninjas from the Takininja Village will die on the battlefield.

Even though the knife is on your neck, at least it hasn't been cut off yet, right?
Moreover, if the information that the Six Paths Sage, the mastermind behind the scenes, was reaping the ninja world was true, he would have reaped the other five major ninja villages first.

After all, there are tall people to hold up the sky when it falls.

Tian Qingcheng was bound by the corrupt ideology of Takigakure. Even though he knew the truth, he did not dare to easily raise the knife of resistance.

"Just three days! We will only stay here for three days. If Takigakure doesn't produce any results after three days, we in the Darkgakure will regard it as Takigakure refusing to cooperate."

Kakuzu's attitude was firm, and he did not relax the time limit just because of Tianqingcheng's concession.

"Kakuzu, you old fool, don't go too far! Remember that you were once a member of the Takigakure!"

"If the village hadn't launched a full-scale hunt for you all those years, you would have died long ago! And now you are treating your own homeland like this!"

"It's only a few days, but you won't give me more time. Do you really think that Takiguni Village is easy to bully?"

"Don't think that you can underestimate the Takigakure just because the Minggakure is strong. With our strength, it's easy for us to keep you guys here!"

Tian Qingcheng really couldn't suppress his anger anymore. He slammed the table, stood up from the Takikage throne, and launched an explosive attack on Kakuzu.

He even resorted to verbal threats, which showed that he was extremely angry.

"Is Takikage threatening us? If this is the choice of Takigakure, Minggakure can also accept it."

"If Takinin Village wasn't my hometown, you wouldn't even have three days."

"In the past, it wasn't that the village didn't hunt me down, but that the village itself owed me."

Kakuzu's voice was calm, without any change.

He saw clearly that Tian Qingcheng was a coward and did not have the courage to go against the Mingnin Village.

The village is his weak spot. Although he is not very interested in the great ideal of changing the ninja world, he is a qualified Kage to the village.

He is in no way inferior to the Five Kage, and is even much stronger than Sarutobi Hiruzen and Ōnoki.

Tian Qingcheng has great love for the village that has nurtured him for more than 30 years, but his eyes are a little narrow.

"Well, since we are not on the same page, there is no need to continue the conversation. Next, the Dark Ninja Village will arrange for other core elders to come."

"As for what the outcome will be, it all depends on the luck of Takinin Village."

"We won't bother you anymore, let's go!"

Kakuzu then stabbed Tian Qingcheng in the heart again, making him feel a little uneasy, and then he turned around and left.

"Wait, three days is three days!"

Tian Qingcheng listened to Kakuzu's naked threat, but still gritted his teeth and agreed with a grim expression.

After all, he couldn't afford to take the risk. There were too many ninjas in Takigakure, and their lives could not be decided by his momentary capriciousness.

"Well, we will stay in Takigakure for three days and wait for Takigakure's decision."

Kakuzu was almost at the door, but when he heard Tian Qingcheng's choice, he paused and responded.

Then he led his men out of the Takikage office building. In the next three days, Takikage Tianqingcheng organized the elders and many elite ninjas to conduct in-depth discussions on the incorporation of the Ninja Village.

After two days of discussion, no results were achieved.

Several elders attached great importance to the independence of the village and were unwilling to bow to the Mingnin Village.

They felt that even the five major ninja villages had not made such a strong demand to incorporate them. Although the Dark Ninja Village was powerful, it could not lose its autonomy because of power.

Some young elites hold different opinions. They all know the secrets of the ninja world that are gradually being revealed, and they agree with the great ideal of the Ninja Village to unify the ninja world.

Moreover, the Soul Ninja Village has also proven itself, and it is now the most powerful ninja village. It may not be a bad idea to join them. After all, the ninja world is all about strength.

Takiguni Village has been peaceful for too long, and these young elites are eager to leave their names in the ninja world and make achievements.

But the rules of Takigakure have always made it impossible for them to cross the line, and they are bound by layers of constraints, because the first requirement for a ninja is to obey orders.

Their thoughts cannot be shaken at all, the basic consciousness that has been formed in the village for a long time. This is the sadness of being a ninja.

Now that there is an opportunity to truly express their own ideas, young elites will naturally seize the opportunity.

Therefore, there was a polarization between the elders and the young elites, and the final decision-making power was kicked to Takiying Tianqingcheng.

This gave Tian Qingcheng a headache.

Originally, he did not want Takigakure to lose its autonomy. As the person in power, no one was willing to do that.

But the threat from the Ninja Village is no joke. They are a group of real lunatics who are ruthless and determined to kill in order to achieve their ideals.

Disagreeing would mean facing the punishment from the Ninja Village, but Tian Qingcheng was not sure how serious the consequences would be.

He couldn't afford to gamble! He didn't dare to gamble with the lives of tens of thousands of residents of Takinin Village.

Now that the ball is kicked to him, he is really distressed and there is no good solution for the time being.

So that day they spread the news that the Ninja Village wanted to recruit them, and prepared to listen to the opinions of the general public of ninjas.

On the third day, Tian Qingcheng decided to let all the ninjas vote to see what the opinions of the ninjas in the village were before making the final decision.

The ninja was very fast. They finished casting the votes in just one morning and then spent another afternoon counting the votes.

In the end, out of the vote of more than 5800 ninjas, more than ninjas expressed their willingness to follow the village's arrangements.

Two thousand ninjas refused to join the Ming Ninja Village and insisted on maintaining the independence of the Takigakure.

The remaining 1,500 ninjas are willing to join the Ninja Village. They are not very resistant to this and are even looking forward to it!
The life in Taoyuan has made them tired. If a ninja has never experienced fierce fighting and has never been on the battlefield, is he still a ninja?

This data had a great impact on Tian Qingcheng, making him realize that the village's blockade policy had become so unpopular.

This also allowed Tian Qingcheng to make a preliminary decision, but formal negotiations were still necessary to see if greater benefits could be gained.

If conditions permit, it is not impossible to be recruited by the Ninja Village.

Since we can't resist, we have to strive for the greatest benefits for the village.

At 8:30 on the fourth day, Kakuzu brought Yuta and the other three directly to Takikage's office to listen to Takikage's choice.

"Takikage, please tell me your choice." After Kakuzu came in, he asked directly to the point.

"It's not impossible for my Takigakure to join your Minggakure, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."

Tian Qingcheng decided to join the Mingninja Village, but he also wanted to put forward two conditions to the Mingninja Village.

"You tell me, I'll see if I can make the decision. If not, I can contact Hades and give you an answer as soon as possible."

Kakuzu was very happy to see Tian Qingcheng's decision to lead the Takigakure to join the Minggakure. As long as his request was not excessive, he would agree to it if he could make the decision within his position.

This is also great news for the Ninja Village.

"Takigakure will not directly join the Mystery Village. We must maintain the independence of Takigakure. We will become a subsidiary force of the Mystery Village and obey orders, but we must not use Takigakure ninjas as cannon fodder.

Takikage Tianqingcheng immediately put forward his request to Kakuzu.

"For your second question, I can tell you directly that the Dark Ninja Village will never use members of its own village as cannon fodder. You can rest assured about this."

As for the first question, I can't make the decision. I need to ask Lord Pluto for his opinion and see what he says.

If he agrees, then there's no problem. If Pluto disagrees, then I can only say sorry.

He then activated the ring and contacted Orochimaru.
