Chapter 399: Full Stomach, No Business

Qianshou Feijian's gaze fell on Lian Ye.

Can this kid's Kaleidoscope Sharingan actually foresee the future?

No wonder the Second Personality never manifested in the Spiritual World.

Regarding Lian Ye's Kaleidoscope Sharingan.

He has always pretended not to see it, so naturally doesn't know the eye's exact abilities.

"Um um um…"

The three Kage's muffled shouts pulled Qianshou Feijian's thoughts back.

"Take the cloths off their mouths."

Although the three are lower‑level prisoners, they are still a village's Kage after all.

The proper etiquette must not be omitted.

"Yes, Teacher."

Uchiha Jing stepped forward and removed the cloths from the three's mouths.

"What price must we pay to be allowed to leave?"

Da Ye Mu said in a muffled, irritated tone.

He is the first captured Kage in ninja village history, so it's no wonder his mood is terrible.

He now only wants the village to pay to ransom him back.

He really doesn't want to stay here for even a moment.

Lian Ye and the others' gazes simultaneously fell on Qianshou Feijian.

If this kid hadn't come, they'd decide on their own.

Now that he's here, let's first consider his opinion.

Having been Hokage for so many years, he has experience in this regard.

After a moment of silence, Qianshou Feijian said gravely.

"Two hundred hundred million."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Da Ye Mu rejected outright.

Although the Daimyo's wealth is now controlled by Iwagakure, two hundred hundred million is definitely a massive sum.

Isn't it good to use that money to develop the village?

The Third Generation Water Shadow and the Second Generation Raikage also shook their heads.

That sum is too huge, far exceeding their mental price range.

Qianshou Feijian had long guessed that the few would not agree.

Even if it concerns their lives…

Negotiations, haggling is normal.

After a tug‑of‑war lasting several hours.

The three Kage decided to have the village fund one hundred thirty hundred million ryō to ransom themselves.

Even though it pains them deeply, they can only write a letter for a Konoha messenger to send back.

Pressing the hand seal, the three seemed to have all their strength drained.

They collapsed onto the chair.

130 hundred million!

"Before your village sends the ransom, you all should temporarily reside in the village first."

Qianshou Feijian said to the three.

Then, Zhi Cun Tuan Cang sent people to imprison them.

Dozens of ANBU guarded them round the clock.

When Qianshou Feijian left the office, the few simultaneously broke into brilliant smiles.

"Hahaha, we've struck it rich, 390 hundred million ryō!"

Yuanfei Rizhan laughed cheerfully.

"Spending this money on the village's construction will definitely leave other villages far behind!"

Zhi Cun Tuan Cang's mouth curled into a slight curve.

Konoha Village is no longer a village that others can extort.

All of this is thanks to the village's Hokage!

That is, himself.

Since he took office, the village has flourished.

Indeed, Teacher Feijian is truly accurate in judging people!

Of course, Lian Ye's contributions in this were enormous.

Just changing the Daimyo could be recorded in history.

Unfortunately, such matters are not glorious, so they have to be swept under the rug.

"Lian Ye, there's a celebration banquet tonight; you must attend!"

Yuanfei Rizhan looked at Lian Ye with an expectant expression.

Previously, Lian Ye had always been unwilling to join such events, always having the same excuse.

To go home and cook for Teacher Feijian.

"No problem."

Facing the others' expectant gazes, Lian Ye found it hard to refuse and could only agree.

As for that old kid Qianshou Feijian?

Let him just manage a meal at Orochimaru's house.

Anyway, that kid Orochimaru received the true transmission, and the food he makes isn't bad.

"Call Xiaochun and Menyan and tell them about this haul," Uchiha Jing suggested.

None of them objected, and they left cheerfully.

Commercial Street, inside the restaurant.

"Fine, you do this kind of thing and don't even call us!"

Mizuto Menyan rubbed his eyes and said, a bit dissatisfied.

We were once comrades who fought side by side!

"Yeah, how could you do that?" Xiaochun Zhuanqin pretended to be sad.

"Haha, the situation was urgent, I forgot to inform you," Yuanfei Rizhan awkwardly scratched his head.

At that time, thinking the Uzumaki clan would be in danger, he really forgot to call the good comrades.

Xiaochun Zhuanqin and Mizuto Menyan were just joking.

They weren't actually angry.

Given the urgent situation, forgetting to notify them was understandable.

After all, none of them even had Teacher Feijian to remind them.

"Have you been taking students during this period?" Lian Ye asked curiously.

He remembered the two used to, when idle, take those freshly graduated Genin.

He didn't know if they are now Team Leader Jonin.

"I didn't go this year," Mizuto Menyan shook his head.

Being a guiding Jonin is a very tiring job.

"I'm still taking students," Xiaochun Zhuanqin said with a smile.

She usually has nothing to do, so she becomes the Team Leader Jonin for those freshly graduated students from the major families.

Once a student becomes a Chunin, she's no longer involved.

They're all ninja from big families; they can graduate in no time.

The few of them chatted and laughed in the restaurant; it had been a long time since they gathered together.

After dinner they each returned home.

Qianshou Feijian Residence.

"Lian Ye, you're here!"

Xuanwo Mizuto, seeing Lian Ye back, showed gratitude on his face.

The Whirlpool Country matter, Feijian had already told her.

If not for Lian Ye, the Uzumaki clan would definitely face the risk of extinction.

"Mizuto Ayi, come in quickly and have a seat."

"No need, I'm here specifically to thank you for saving the Uzumaki clan."

She stays in Konoha Village most of the year; the times she returns are few enough to count on fingers.

If the Uzumaki clan were wiped out, it would be a huge blow to her.

Fortunately, Lian Ye changed the fate of the clan.

Xuanwo Mizuto left after expressing thanks.

Lian Ye just smiled at that.

The Uzumaki clan not being wiped out is good for Konoha.

Even if war breaks out in the future, the village can have the Uzumaki clan to support it.

The higher‑ups of Kirigakure Village, Iwagakure Village, and Cloud Hidden Village received letters.

They hurriedly took the huge ransom and headed to Konoha Village.

"Everyone, take care, I won't see you off!"

Zhi Cun Tuan Cang looked at the departing few with a cheerful grin.

The Three Shadows wore iron‑blue faces and left without a word.

When they left Fire Country, an intense battle broke out.

"Stinky dwarf, think you're impressive because you can fly?"

"You really think we're scared of you, huh!"

"Hmph, if you're not convinced, let's fight. I've long been annoyed with you!"

Second Generation Raikage and Third Generation Water Shadow temporarily teamed up to oppose Da Ye Mu.

The ninja from the surrounding villages were instantly dumbfounded.

When their own Kage suddenly fought, should they go up to support?

In the end, the village ninja still joined the fight.

Kirigakure ninja and Cloud Hidden ninja united to fight Iwagakure ninja.

Later, for unknown reasons, Second Generation Raikage fought Third Generation Water Shadow again.

The three sides each fought on their own.

Hokage Office.

Zhi Cun Tuan Cang looked at the incoming intel, not knowing what to say.

These people really have nothing to do after eating their fill.

He just left Fire Country and started fighting.

But since the money has already been paid and there was no fighting inside Fire Country.

Then it's no longer Konoha's matter.

……

……

ps: Hehe, taking a day off; tomorrow, Friday, will definitely be the third watch, eee eee eee……

By the way, haven't fought Delta during this period, because went bankrupt.
