Naruto: All depends on Kyuubi C

Chapter 349 The truth behind the disappearance of the daimyo

The Land of Fire, the capital of the Daming Prefecture, as the most powerful capital of the five major ninja countries, has always been synonymous with prosperity.

But now, the atmosphere in the entire capital is more or less incompatible with this name.

The main reason is that some time ago, the famous names of the Fire Nation disappeared without any reason, and there is still no news until now, which can't help but make people in the capital of the Fire Nation panic at this moment.

In addition, I heard that the Ninja Village, which belongs to the Fire Country, and Konoha Village are being rebuilt because of the war. As a result, they are unable to send enough people to support because they are some distance away and the information is not that detailed.

Most of the citizens thought that Konoha was currently in dire straits.

Although I heard that Konoha's performance in this 'war' was very impressive, and it also launched a counterattack against the other four major ninja villages, and had a brilliant record of winning in just one day, which more or less dispelled people's hearts. haze.

But for the big shots in the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire, the shabby stories of these ninjas are not worth mentioning. The disappearance of the Daimyo is the top priority.

Originally, there were many radicals in the house who planned to go to Konoha to criticize those Konoha ninjas for not taking action. However, a few senior officials who had just returned from visiting the Chunin Examination held in Konoha tried their best to deal with it, as if they did not want to take action. It looks like things are getting serious.

But no matter what, the chaos in the Daming Mansion was seen by the people inside and outside the capital.

In the streets, everyone was talking about the disappearance of the daimyo and Konoha's inaction.

But to be honest, after the daimyo disappeared for a while, the people discovered that their lives were not affected much.

night.

A man wearing a black robe with red clouds was sitting on the eaves of the Daming Mansion. He looked up at the crows circling above him under the starry sky and moonlight, and listened quietly to the anxious conversations of the dignitaries in the house.

At this time, the Daming Mansion was extremely heavily guarded, but no one noticed the man sitting on their eaves.

"What's going on? Any news?"

"...Yes, it's still the same as before. Some people say that they have discovered the whereabouts of the daimyo and his sons in the Kingdom of Wind, and he has been tracking them in depth."

"Someone here said that they discovered the whereabouts of the daimyo and the young masters in the Kingdom of Thunder, as well as the criminals who kidnapped the daimyo. They are also preparing to go to the Kingdom of Thunder to investigate."

"There is also news from the Kingdom of Earth..."

"The same goes for the Kingdom of Water..."

"Damn, what a piece of trash!"

Seeing that the desk was full of information about the whereabouts, the senior ministers of the Fire Nation's Daming Mansion were so angry that they immediately jumped to their feet: "Have those adults learned the clone technique of those ninjas? How is it possible that they can be found everywhere? Are they crazy? Or am I crazy?"

As he said that, he picked up the intelligence file on the document and shook it hard: "Is this all intelligence coming from other countries? Do these fucking guards have wings and can fly? They have only been out for investigation for a few days. It’s just that I couldn’t reach the border without sleeping, but in the end, all of them were able to come back from other countries to deliver news after completing their investigations?”

"They are all false. In fact, everyone said they were going to other countries to track them, but in fact they all wanted to escape, right?"

"Minister, please don't be so angry!"

"Angry? I'm going crazy. Outsiders don't know, and those of us who are trapped here don't know? This is the first one. If we don't solve it, it will be my turn!"

The minister puffed his beard and stared, but the outside world did not know that after the daimyo disappeared, there were domestic forces who wanted to elect the daimyo's child to temporarily take over the daimyo's position under the banner of saying that the country must not be without a king for a day.

As a result, everyone was still fighting over who should be the new daimyo. The next day, the daimyo's children also disappeared one by one.

It seems that as long as someone wants to become this famous person, he is destined to disappear the next day.

An important minister of the Fire Nation who did not believe in evil forcibly chose a concubine from the Daimyo family to temporarily replace the Daimyo...

As a result, the concubine disappeared that night together with his important ministers.

There were obviously many guards, but none of the guards noticed why the two adults in the room were missing.

At this moment, the position of Daimyo of the Land of Fire was regarded by everyone as being cursed by the devil, and at least no one would covet him in a short period of time.

However, it is not the end that no one dares to sit on the Daimyo position, it is just the beginning.

Next, whenever someone tries to actually control the power of the Daming Mansion to run the Country of Fire, this person will disappear soon.

Whether in name or in reality, it seems that as long as the Daimyo is acting, he will disappear.

But as long as they don't touch the rights of the daimyo and everyone does their own thing, no one will go missing.

As if to make these people realize something——

Although there will be panic for a while, the Fire Nation can still operate as usual even without the Daimyo.

The disappearance of the daimyo did cause panic among the people at first, but now that some time has passed, for the people, it just adds some topics for after-dinner conversation and does not have much impact on their lives.

After all, it doesn't matter whether the daimyo is there or not, whether we should farm or do business.

Coupled with the fact that Konoha is now shocking the ninja world, other forces that were doing evil near the Land of Fire are also in a wait-and-see state at this time. The major forces, led by the four major countries, are even more silent.

Even because people often disappeared in the Daming Mansion, some of the nobles who were usually domineering had restrained themselves and hid in their homes and felt uneasy. The people around them felt that their lives had been more leisurely recently.

But not everyone is aware of this, and some people are more willing to believe that this is a supernatural event caused by ghosts and gods, and they are looking for reasons to move away from the vicinity of Daming Mansion.

For example, these Daimyo guards who sent back the news were preparing to go abroad to 'capture' important criminals.

"Could it be done by ninjas from other countries?"

"There is also a possibility that the hired ninjas are unreliable. I said at the beginning that the organization of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas should not be disbanded! Samurai cannot replace ninjas. Now it's good, except for the daimyo, even the adults are stunned. ....."

"In the end, we have to rely on Konoha for rescue..."

Sitting on the eaves, Uchiha Itachi listened to the movements of the people in the house, and then looked at the occasional information from the crows in the sky.

[Everything is as expected by the Yondaime Hokage...]

But before he could think about what to do next, a figure appeared behind him.

He was carrying a huge and weird sword in his hand, and had a strange face like a shark.

"Mr. Itachi, today they secretly selected another daimyo candidate, and I took him away. As you said, those guards are really too weak."

"Ah."

Itachi turned his head calmly and said softly, "Keep going and let the Daming Mansion continue to be leaderless. Konoha will definitely send someone over."

"Haha, as expected of Mr. Weasel, your move to encircle and call for reinforcements is amazing!"

Iniki Kaki Kisame said with admiration: "According to the information within the organization, Konoha is extremely dangerous now. Even if we go there rashly, we may not be able to escape unscathed. But as long as we continue to keep the name of the Fire Country in a safe position, Since he is missing, Konoha will definitely send a qualified guy. Then we just need to get information from him..."

[He really believed it. 】

Itachi, who didn't even cast any genjutsu on Kisame, nodded without leaving any trace: "No matter who the person from Konoha is, they don't dare to be careless when it comes to important things like the name of the Daimyo. I will confirm it first."

"Understood, I believe in your decision, Mr. Itachi, and I will cooperate with you when the time comes..."

Kisame grinned, and then his body turned into water and dispersed.

His true form is still taking care of the Fire Country Daimyo and his successors.

Itachi continued to look at the crows circling in the sky, and suddenly, he looked startled.

"That person is..."

At this time, in the woods outside Daming Mansion, the adult Sasuke stopped on his way, raised his head, and saw the crow hovering in the sky.
