In order to avoid being exposed before things were done fully, Nagato did not rashly let the ministers controlled by them recommend that they establish a ninja village in the Land of Rice.
He first had the Akatsuki members wipe out the wandering ninjas who were roaming around the Land of Rice and robbing houses, so that their fake identities would gain a certain reputation.
Then he asked the ministers to mobilize their forces to widely brag about and spread their deeds throughout the Land of Field, and there was a lot of exaggeration in it.
The only thing missing was to describe those wandering ninjas as being as powerful as the shadows of the five great villages, and to describe the fake identities of Nagato and the others as being so kind, so just, and so powerful.
Some people who don't know the truth actually believe that such a group of righteous people have appeared in the territory of Tian Kingdom.
This is the dual power of power and money that instantly created the "hero" of Tianzhiguo.
Next, the ministers will tell Nagato and others about their idea of building a village in the Land of Rice. The ministers controlled by them will all say good things and things will become easier.
The daimyo of Tianguo was a little hesitant at first, but when he saw that so many ministers believed that there should be a ninja village, he agreed.
He was too lazy to think too much. Anyway, something that so many ministers agreed with should not be a bad thing. He didn't know how to govern a country. If he were to govern the country, what would happen to Tian State? Wouldn't it become even worse
Although the people of Tianzhiguo thought that the Daimyo of Tianzhiguo was incompetent and unjust, he was still very clear about some things.
Even if the Country of Fields is poor, it is still a country, and everyone is in the same boat. There is a limit to what they do. Everyone can be free and easy in the Country of Fields. If it is gone, these officials will lose their status.
As a daimyo, even if he lost his country, he could still live a carefree life with his other daimyo brothers.
Of course, there are some things that the Daimyo of Tianzhikuni still cares about. He asked how much funding Nagato and others requested. If it was more, their Tianzhikuni would not need it.
The relationship between the ninja village and the daimyo is very simple, it is a monetary connection. The ninja is responsible for providing force and the daimyo is responsible for giving money. This is the current operating model of the ninja village in the ninja world.
Of course, in addition to the money given by the daimyo, the ninja village itself also accepts commissions from all parties, and is not limited to any country.
Generally speaking, war commissions are the most profitable. The minimum is A-level and there are many S-level tasks, which can make a lot of money.
Some small countries that cannot afford to support themselves and do not have strong enough ninjas in their country rely on hiring countries with ninja villages to resist invasion.
In addition, the Ninja Village itself is also a city where you can make money in your own way.
In short, the Daimyo of Tianguokuni did not have any big ambitions. He just wanted to enjoy his life to the fullest. If Nagato and the others asked for too much money, he would not be happy.
Fortunately, Nagato's Akatsuki organization was already earning a lot of money on its own, so they didn't want to get much from the daimyo, so they just reported a number at random, which was not too much, and the daimyo of Tianguo was able to accept it.
However, since a ninja village was to be established in his own country, the Daimyo of the Land of Rice also proposed to meet with Nagato and others, although he did not like to meddle in other people's affairs.
He expressed his desire to see what this ninja, who was rumored to be extremely powerful, looked like.
After thinking about it, Nagato did not refuse, and brought a few people who were high-ranking officials of the Hikari Ninja Village who were planned to the palace of the Daimyo of the Land of Rice.
Nagato himself did not use any transformation techniques. He directly used Tendou's body, which is Yahiko's body, but he was not wearing the red cloud and black robe of the Akatsuki organization.
He only brought three people, one of whom was Konan. Konan did not use transformation techniques to change her appearance, and was not wearing the Akatsuki uniform.
Since Yahiko and Konan were not traitorous ninjas and were not wanted, they naturally did not need to change their appearances. Everyone who knew them was in the Rain Village, and the Rain Village was also under the control of Nagato.
The other two are Scorpion who is hiding in the Hirugashi, and Obiru who uses transformation technique to simply change his appearance.
Looking at Pain, who has nose studs, ear studs and all kinds of studs, and the hunched and peculiarly shaped Kiryuko, the Daimyo of the Land of Rice feels that these "heroes" are dressed really trendy.
But he was still a daimyo after all, so he still spoke. The daimyo of Tanokuni smiled and said:
"As expected of a famous and powerful ninja, even his appearance is so unique that it's hard to tell at a glance that he's not an ordinary ninja."
The words of the Daimyo did not change the expressions of the Akatsuki members. Pein said calmly, "As for some reputation, I would like to thank the Daimyo for the establishment of the Ninja Village."
"Haha, this is also good for our Tian Kingdom. It will strengthen the military strength of our Tian Kingdom. Lord Yahiko, you can make any requests and we will try our best to meet them." The daimyo said with a smile.
After hearing the name Yahiko, Nagato remained expressionless. This was the name he announced this time, so the daimyo called him that.
For Nagato, the village of Hikari Ninja Village, which has special significance, should be led by Yahiko, so Nagato himself used the name Yahiko.
As for the matter of being exposed, Nagato hadn't thought about it, and the name Yahiko was not a well-known name.
"Please ask the Daimyo to call on the ninjas of the country to join our Hikari Ninja Village. Otherwise, although we are quite powerful, we are still not enough to support a ninja village."
"Recruiting people..." Daimyoji Tanokuni thought about it and felt that it was no problem. The money they were given could not be too much, and they could not be left alone.
"In addition, I still have some confidence in training ninjas. I believe that with our joint efforts, the Land of Rice Fields will become even stronger." Nagato continued to seduce without waiting for the Daimyo to say anything.
And Nagato also burst out his chakra, unleashing a little momentum, and a powerful aura enveloped the palace.
The two ninjas who were hiding in the dark to protect the daimyo suddenly changed their expressions and rushed out from the darkness, rushed in front of the daimyo and blocked him behind them.
As ninjas, they felt the unfathomable power of the people before them.
Some of the older officials in the hall broke out in cold sweats, and their eyes kept changing as they looked at Payne.
This is not some liar who is pretending to be a ghost, but a genuine strong man.
The two ninjas' legs trembled slightly, but when they thought about the salary given by the daimyo, they were reluctant to move away. They stood firmly in front of the daimyo to protect him.
There's no way, he gave too much.
It was also the first time that the daimyo felt the pressure from the strong ninjas, and the fat on his face couldn't help but tremble.
However, Nagato did not come here simply to intimidate, so he quickly put away his momentum and said calmly: "You two don't need to be nervous. I'm just worried that someone might misunderstand us as people with empty reputations, so I want to show my strength."
The two ninjas breathed a sigh of relief. If that was the case, they probably wouldn't have to fight. However, they didn't leave the daimyo immediately and continued to protect him.
Since there is no danger, you should show your loyalty well, then you will get a lot of money.
The daimyo wiped the sweat from his forehead, waved his hand to let the two ninjas retreat, and then said with a smile: "Lord Yahiko's strength is really unprecedented. With a strong man like you developing a ninja village in the Land of Rice, we don't have to worry about the strength of the country anymore."
"Don't worry, I will definitely promote you well, so that all the ninjas in our Land of Rice will know that there is a strong man like you with a strong sense of justice who has established a ninja village in the Land of Rice, and encourage them to join."
"Thank you very much, Great Master." Nagato still maintained a calm expression, with no change on his face.
The Daimyo of the Land of Rice could not figure out what was going on with Nagato, so he gave up and could only complain in his heart that these strong people might be different from ordinary people.
Of course, this guess is not wrong in a sense.
Nagato naturally would not be happy just because a daimyo of a small country offered to help select a ninja village or something.
For him, this was already part of the plan. Even if the daimyo did not bring it up, Nagato could use the ministers under his control to do it. Even if the daimyo said no, it would still be the ministers who would do the job.
Maybe when the plan is truly successful and the ending that Nagato wants to see comes, he will smile.
After all, although Yahiko's body is just a corpse, the puppet with the Rinnegan is different from ordinary puppets. It looks almost like a real person and can show expressions like a living person.
But Nagato is not a sand demon, so of course he can't control the puppet to show an exaggerated smile.
There is only one word to describe Nagato's mood when he was controlling the Heaven's Path: heavy.
Yahiko is such a good person. When he is in trouble, he will not keep complaining about the injustice of God. Instead, he will make up his mind to change the status quo. If he has no ability, he will learn some. If he has the ability, he will change the Rain Country which is in trouble and change the world where wars are constant.
But such a good person was ruthlessly betrayed by the same country, resulting in only a corpse left now.
How could this not make Nagato feel heavy-hearted
The daimyo was frightened by Nagato's aura and was in no mood to listen to the ministers' nagging. He ended the meeting early and went to find a warm embrace to soothe his wounded heart.
Nagato and the others were also very decisive and just left on their own.
If they had a cooperative relationship with the ministers, they might be able to discuss something, but the relationship between the two parties was unequal. The ministers and others were merely controlled by them, not partners.
Because compared to violent control, cooperation takes too much time, and Nagato is now a little anxious and can't wait that long.
Soon, with the joint efforts of the Daimyo and ministers of the Land of Rice, the news that the Land of Rice was going to establish the Hikari Ninja Village spread throughout the Land of Rice and to the surrounding countries.
Here we have to mention the countries surrounding the Land of Rice.
The Land of Rice belongs to the northern part of the overall ninja world, in the middle of the north.
The Kingdom of Fire is located directly south of the Kingdom of Field. It borders the Kingdom of Fire and is also the only big country that the Kingdom of Field borders.
The Land of Rice borders the Land of Hot Spring to the east. Although there is a ninja village in the Land of Hot Spring, it has gradually shrunk due to various reasons and has lost its due strength. The national strength is relatively weak, but the hot springs in the country are famous in the ninja world.
To the northwest of the Land of Rice is the Land of Frost, which is also a country without a ninja village. However, the Land of Frost is a little richer than the Land of Rice, and its daimyo is considered to be good at governing the country, making it stronger than the Land of Rice.
These three countries border Wada Province, and there are two other countries that are not bordering it but are very close to it.
For example, the Moon Kingdom above the Hot Spring Kingdom, and the Taki Kingdom next to the Frost Kingdom.
If you go a little further, you will reach the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain.
From the above introduction, it is not difficult to see that the Land of Rice is one of the weaker ones even in the ninja world, and the three bordering countries are stronger than it.
Although the Yu no Kuni family has weakened, its foundation is still there and it still has ninja power.
Even the Frost Country, which is also a ninja-less village, cannot be compared with the Field Country. Its national strength is much stronger than that of the Field Country.
Not to mention the Fire Nation, which is vaguely ranked first among the five major nations. Is this something that your little Field Nation can challenge
Therefore, when the news that the Land of Rice was going to create a ninja village was met with a laugh from the surrounding countries.
The people in the Land of Hot Springs think that the young people in the Land of Fields are totally joking. Do you, the Land of Fields, have the strength to build a ninja village
Especially a ninja village that can't even produce a ninja with the strength of a great country's Jonin. It can be destroyed by a few Chunin generals.
Isn't such a ninja village a joke? When a war really breaks out, it will fall apart at the slightest touch. It would be better to spend some money to hire ninjas from other countries. The money spent may not even be as much as that spent on the ninja village.
The Frost Kingdom also thought that its neighbor was particularly funny.
The Frost Country doesn't have a ninja village, but you in the Field Country have a Light Ninja Village. Do you have the money to do that? What ninjas in your Field Country can take on this important task
As for the rumors about Nagato, they were also passed along, but of course they didn't believe them.
You think you are so proud just because you beat up some wandering ninjas and some bandits. How powerful can your Tian Country be? You are exaggerating to the sky. It's obviously fake.
A few random ninjas who are not famous in the ninja world just come out and do something, and they are praised as if they are comparable to the Kages of the five major countries.
Of course they don't believe this nonsense, it's too outrageous.
How outrageous is it? It's just like in Nagase's previous life, a small country that had not entered the civilized world for long said that its people had developed controlled nuclear fusion.
If the people of the Frost Country and the Soup Country really believed it, then there would be something fishy going on.
Why don’t you say that the five major ninja villages are actually puppets controlled by you.
As for the Land of Fire, they care even less about it. It can't even be spread there. At most it will be used as after-dinner talk in the southern part close to the Land of Field.
In fact, creating a ninja village is not a very rare thing. After all, there is no ninja headquarters to issue any rules for the establishment of ninja villages, and there are no certain conditions that must be met before it can be created. As long as you are confident enough, you can call yourself a ninja village with just a hundred people.
There are many small countries in the ninja world, and this little movement is not worth the attention of a top power like the Fire Nation.
Unless that blind superpower dares to violate the newly signed treaty and start a war, the Fire Nation may take action.
But based on past experience, the duration of peace is roughly equal to the time Nagase lives.
