Naruto: In the name of time, shock the ninja world!.

Chapter 254: The rear is on fire, with the intention of ceding territory and paying compensation.

Just as the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning issued a death order to the Raikage, the same scene was happening in the Land of Earth far away.

But the slight difference was that Ōnoki personally arrived at the daimyo's mansion and met the daimyo.

Among the current ninja village leaders, Ōnoki is the oldest and also the most experienced, with his scheming and strategy slightly superior to others.

This is a bonus brought by the accumulation of time, and also the proof of survival in the world.

Ōnoki served under the First and Second Tsuchikage, and his relationship with the daimyo remained intact, so he was not treated the same way as the Raikage by the daimyo of the Land of Lightning.

The current Daimyo of the Land of Earth is very young, and his abilities in all aspects are mediocre. He is not like Minamoto no Mitsuyori of the Land of Fire, who is deeply scheming and is truly weak and incompetent.

The power of the country is basically controlled by the nobles in the capital, and Oonoki came here this time because of the strong request of these people.

If his lifeline was not in the hands of others, how could Ohnoki, the Tsuchikage and elder of the Land of Earth, submit to others?

But the situation is stronger than the person, and Ōnoki is not invincible in the ninja world, so he must be patient.

Inside the mansion, Ohnoki looked coldly at the officials in front of him who were just sitting there doing nothing. His anger rose and fell, but always remained within controllable limits.

He glanced at the name at the top and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Alas... Where is the road to the Land of Earth?"

"How can a kid be a match for these old foxes? He can only be manipulated and become a puppet."

At this time, the surroundings were silent, with only the sound of food being chewed. The daimyo sat nervously in his seat, with servants arranged by the nobles behind him.

He looked very nervous, with cold sweat oozing from his forehead from time to time. He clenched the corners of his clothes with both hands, and his eyes were wandering, falling on the table in front of him.

Suddenly, a hand pushed him from behind. The puppet daimyo shook his body, as if he knew what meant. After hesitating, he raised his head, looked straight ahead, and forced himself to behave in a dignified manner.

Oonoki took it all in and couldn't help but shake his head.

The person in front of him seemed to be waiting for this moment. As soon as he shook his head, a very wanton voice was heard.

"Why did the Tsuchikage shake his head? I saw you looking towards the Daimyo just now, could it be because of the Daimyo?"

"If that's the case, then please be patient with the Tsuchikage. Our Daimyo is a bit timid and can't stand being frightened."

The man who was speaking had a smile on his face, and his narrow eyes showed a look of watching a show, which made people feel uncomfortable at first sight.

Ohnoki was old and experienced, so this kind of small situation was naturally not a problem for him. He glanced at him and then spoke calmly.

"I am worried about the current situation and I am worried about this country."

People who have experienced many ups and downs have a different level of speaking ability and can determine the nature of the incident in just a few words.

Using national security as a shield, they block the road and do not give people a chance to refute.

He didn't create any trouble, which made the person who was speaking feel bored. He wanted to say something else, but was frightened by a sharp look and shrank his neck.

Ōnoki the old god was always there, oblivious to what was happening in front of him, quietly thinking about the battle situation in his mind, not caring at all about what the nobles thought.

Time passed minute by minute, and Ōnoki felt angry and sad when he saw that they had no intention of discussing national affairs.

However, his years of cultivation allowed him to endure it, but his tone became unfriendly.

"You guys called me back from the front line, you didn't just come here to eat, drink and have fun, did you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the joyful atmosphere on the field suddenly turned extremely cold.

"Ahem, of course not." Just when everyone was embarrassed, Yamada Iwatetsu, the leader of the nobles, coughed lightly and said.

Ōnoki looked at him coldly, narrowing his eyes and waiting for what to say next.

"The Tsuchikage fought hard for the country and made great contributions. We all saw it and it hurts our hearts." Yamada Iwatori said seriously and sincerely.

Hearing such polite words, Ohnoki felt disdainful in his heart. After so many years, they had a certain understanding of each other.

As the head of the nobility, Yamada Iwatoru holds a great deal of power, and he has achieved his current status by being ruthless and merciless.

The little sheep can't do that.

If Yamada Iwatoru would feel heartbroken, then Ōnoki might as well believe that the sun rises in the west.

Then, Yamada Iwatetsu changed the subject and said with a false smile, "But things have to be prioritized."

Upon hearing this, Ohnoki suppressed his anger and asked word by word: "Isn't the safety of the country serious enough?"

Yamada Iwatetsu nodded with a smile and followed his words, "Of course."

Oonoki looked at him, thinking that he could finally get to the point.

But who would have thought that Yamada Iwatori's next words would make him so angry that he became furious and his face flushed red.

"But we have been fighting for several years and have not seen any results. Manpower and material resources are being consumed every moment. Have you ever thought about this?"

As he spoke, Yamada Iwatori shook his head regretfully, with a look of pity on his face.

"Alas...if the fighting continues like this, the people down there won't be able to survive."

Oonoki tried to calm his agitated emotions and said, "So what you mean?"

Hearing this, Yamada Iwatetsu smiled, crossed his hands on the table, and said slowly: "Why not... just surrender directly."

"Not only will this bring peace to the Land of Earth, it will also minimize casualties."

After he finished speaking, others immediately echoed him, with expressions of approval on their faces.

Ohnoki looked at these teammates who were holding him back, gritting his teeth and his eyes almost spewing fire, burning them all to ashes.

But unfortunately, all this is just imagination.

Seeing this, Yamada Iwatetsu smiled slightly and continued to persuade: "I know that the Tsuchikage may not be able to accept it and think that this is too humiliating."

"But there is no other way. Konoha is too powerful. Even if the three nations join forces, they cannot break through Konoha's defenses."

"The Kirigakure has been defeated again. Only the Kumogakure is left. We are doomed."

Ohnoki clenched his fists, slammed the table, and said angrily: "But the war cannot be stopped just because you want to. Konoha will not give up the fat meat that is so close to us, no!"

Yamada Iwatetsu chuckled and waved his hand dismissively: "Nothing is impossible. It's just that the benefits gained are not enough."

"As long as Konoha is willing to stop the war, the Land of Earth can cede territory and pay compensation, and can compensate all of Konoha's losses."

Hearing such unspirited words, Ōnoki could not help but stagger two steps, his face full of disbelief, and he pointed at him tremblingly.

"You're not afraid to cede land. Are you so afraid that Konoha will attack you?"

"Afraid of losing everything you have now? Losing your life?"

Ohnoki also took the risk and slapped the words "cowardly" on his face, breaking the window paper between the two faces, leaving him naked in public.
