Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 296 Konoha's Attitude
The treatment time was not long, Uzuki Xiyan didn't wait long before Lan opened her eyes and lowered her hands.

Lan let out a long breath, and said to the concerned Uzuki Xiyan: "Okay, I have wiped out all the cancerous cells in Moonlight Gale's lungs, and he only needs a period of recuperation to fully recover. At that time, His strength should also improve."

"Is that really the case? Thank you so much. Thank you. If it weren't for you, Haifeng would have suffered so much."

"Thank you for helping me with the treatment. If you need anything in the future, you can tell me immediately. You are welcome."

Uzuki Xiyan supported Moonlight Gale and couldn't help thanking Lan.

Although Lan waved his hands to indicate that it was nothing, but still couldn't help the two of them thanking each other.

In this way, after thanking Lan for a while, they sat down and chatted with Lan without saying a word.

During the chat, Lan changed the topic to the envoys from the Land of Earth staying at the nearby reception.

"That I want to ask, who is the leader of the mission of the Land of Earth?"

"A mission from the Land of Earth?"

Moonlight Gale frowned, looked at Uzuki Xiyan, and then said softly: "It's okay to tell you, the Land of Earth Mission is led by Onoki's apprentice Didara, they arrived two hours earlier than you .”

"Is it Didara? It seems that Onoki is trying his best to train him."

Lan murmured to himself, looked out the window at the gradually yellowing sky and said, "This year is really a bad year."

Moonlight Gale also cast his gaze out of the window, and he agreed: "Yes, although some people have already guessed that the rainfall will decrease this year, but I didn't expect it to be so little. If it is water, it is estimated that the harvest of the Land of Fire will become even scarcer."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the whole room became dark.

Maji thought of the refugees near the city of the Kingdom of Winds. Hunger swept across the Kingdom of Winds. In the past, this kind of thing was solved by the nobles. Now most of the nobles in the Kingdom of Winds have been wiped out by their ninjas. For a while, I couldn't find anyone to deal with this kind of thing.

Out of necessity, Luo Sha sent the ninjas to various places to rescue disasters. If they did not get food from the Land of Fire, most of the people in the Land of Wind would starve to death.

Maki looked at Moonlight Hayate and asked, "When can we see you Hokage-sama."

Moonlight Gale stared at Ma Ji, frowned slightly and said: "I'm not very clear about this, Mr. Hokage is discussing with the elders, maybe it will be possible to meet you after they finish discussing."

"What! It's possible, this..."

Ma Ji stood up excitedly, he bears the lives of most of the country's citizens, so he couldn't help being nervous.

"Okay, Markey, sit down first, since they told us to wait, let's wait first, it's useless to be anxious."

Rand tugged Markey to sit down again.

After sitting down, Ma Ke lowered his head and sighed, and said, "I'm sorry, I was rude."

"It's okay, I can understand your feelings. Although I also sympathize with you, this matter is not just about food."

Moonlight Gale said calmly.

"Yeah, it's really not that simple. As far as I know, the food in our country of fire this year is nearly a quarter less than last year. If we really want to support you, the country of earth can't do anything about it." Went to support."

Uzuki Xiyan looked at Ma Ji with a troubled expression.

Markey looked at the two of them, moved a little uneasily, turned his face to look at the window and did not speak, now the initiative is on Konoha's side, and it is useless for him to say anything.

Lan glanced at the people in the room with different expressions, closed his eyes and thought.

This matter is indeed not that simple. Although they are nominally here to borrow food, in fact, they are still letting Konoha make a choice as early as possible.

Whether they want to be friends with Lei Tu or their four kingdoms of water, wind, ghosts, and snow is by no means a trivial matter, and it is within his expectation that Konoha will consider it carefully.

No matter which side Konoha chooses, those on the other side will suffer huge losses.

After all, Konoha is not one person's Konoha. Which side they will choose is unknown. However, although it is unknown, Lan can boldly guess that the probability of Konoha choosing them as allies is higher than that of Leitu. The probability of being a friend is high.

This is not only because of the friendship between him and the high-level Konoha, but also a deeper relationship, that is, to face the future enemy together-the outside Otsutsuki clan.

Lan was thinking, when he was thinking, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

Moonlight Gale stood up and opened the door, only to see Danzo standing outside the door leaning on crutches. Now Danzo has resumed his original position, and the roots restricted by Sarutobi Hiruzen now have a certain degree of freedom.

Danzang stood outside with a straight face. He looked at Lan who was looking directly at him and said, "Come with me, I have something I want to talk to you about."

"it is good."

Lan nodded and stood up and walked out.

Seeing Lan leaving, Ma Kei also stood up and prepared to follow.

Lan stopped, turned around and said to Ma Ji: "Sit down and rest for a while, I'll go back."

Markey stared at Lan for a long time before nodding and sitting down.

Upon seeing this, Lan turned around and left with Danzo.

Led by Danzo, Lan came to a residential house.

Inside sat Sarutobi Hiruzen the Third Hokage and Namikaze Minato in a robe.

When Minato saw Lan coming in, he stood up to meet him and said, "Mr. Lan, it's been a long time."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Lan nodded at Minato, and turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was smoking a pipe there.

Seeing Lan looking at him, Hiru Sarutobi was taken aback for a moment before he extinguished the pipe and put it away.

"Ahem, sorry, I forgot that you don't like this kind of thing."

He stood up and opened a window, and after blowing out all the smoke in the room with the wind tunnel, he sat down and said, "Okay, now there is no such thing."

"Ah."

Lan nodded, and sat down next to the water gate. Opposite him were Hiruzaru Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura who were sitting together.

Danzo picked up the teapot and gave Lan a cup of tea, handed it over and said, "We can roughly guess the meaning of your coming here, and we were also having a meeting just now for this."

Lan took the tea and took a sip, holding the cup and asked: "Then what are you going to do?"

Danzo shook his head, and handed over the right to speak to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi coughed lightly, shook his head and said: "For the interests of the Nation of Fire and the peace of the Ninja World, we will take out the grain we have accumulated in previous years and sell it to you and the Ninja of Earth."

"Are those stocks enough?"

Lan asked worriedly.

"Enough, but most of them are some old grains, but now is the time of famine, even old grains are enough for food and clothing." Hiru Sarutobi nodded and said.

Hearing this, Lan frowned even deeper. He raised his hand and said, "I don't think we should keep going around in circles. You should understand why I came here in person."

"Of course I know, I also told you our thoughts, we can sell you food, but don't think too much about other things, it is impossible for the Nation of Fire to form an alliance with any party." Sarutobi Sun Zhan refused.

"Why? Your north is now under the influence of the Kingdom of Thunder. Wouldn't it be good to form an alliance with us?"

Rand asked.

"Not bad, but very bad."

Namikaze Minato shook his head and explained: "Lan, you should understand that the alliance you forged has already made Leitu and Leitu fearful. If we also form an alliance with you, what will they think?"

Lan fell into deep thought. It is true that he forgot this point. If they really form an alliance, what will the two countries think and do? If there is no accident, they should attack them directly, which will trigger a ninja war.

Taking a deep breath, Lan lowered his head and said, "It seems that we really can't form an alliance."

"Yeah, not only can we not form an alliance with you, but we can't form an alliance with the two countries of Thunder and Earth. The situation in the ninja world has now formed a three-legged situation. The southeast forces headed by our country of fire, the existence of our three forces barely maintain the peace in the ninja world, there can be small wars in the ninja world, but there must be no major wars."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi took a sip of tea, closed his eyes and said, "I don't think you want to see the ninja world in chaos."

"Of course, I never have that kind of thought. Everything I do is to maintain peace in the ninja world." Lan said firmly.

Danzo looked at Lan and said nothing.

Minato shook his head and smiled wryly.

Seeing their strange expressions, Lan couldn't help but ask, "What? Am I wrong?"

"No, it's just that I think you should be wary of the future."

Minato shook his head and said with deep meaning: "Although you are trying your best to maintain peace, judging from the situation, the possibility of the Fourth Ninja World War breaking out is extremely high. After all, the conflict between Leitu and you has already The intensification has reached an inevitable level, and I think that while maintaining peace, you should also be prepared for war."

"Is it true that war is unavoidable?" Lan was a little annoyed.

"Unavoidable."

Danzo shook his head and said deeply: "You slapped the land of the earth in the face, causing the land of the earth to suffer a huge loss, and the two kingdoms of Leitu and the Akatsuki organization of the rain ninja village caused your ally, the land of the wind, to suffer A huge loss, such a contradiction, do you think you can handle it alone?"

"..."

Lan remained silent. In fact, he also saw the hostility of the Kingdom of Wind towards the Kingdom of Rain. Some things cannot be suppressed. The more you suppress, the more terrifying it will be when it explodes.

Lowering his head and sighing, he closed his eyes and said, "It seems that the situation has exceeded my expectations."

"No one can predict the situation, Lan. The most important thing now is to prepare for war as soon as possible. Time will not wait for you. We have already started preparations during the civil strife in the Wind Land."

"Is that so, then it looks like I have to go back and make more preparations..."

Lan murmured to himself, and cast his eyes out of the window, at this time the sky had already turned dark.
