  Bae, listening to the beted system annous, Gojo Kaigetsu wore a grin wider than an AK-47.

  Essentially, he had pletely shed the in bel. In terms of practical bat ability, he might be slightly inferior to the average Jonio his ck of experience.

  But just look at these overpowered abilities! Their meid sheer power were off the charts.

  Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu… all he needed was Senjutsu to plete the set.

  Activate Unlimited Void to immobilize the enemy, then spam Red, Blue, and Bck Fsh for damage… Maybe some unsuspeg vilge should provoke Konoha soon. Gojo Kaigetsu started fantasizing about himself otlefield-

  Floating in mid-air with Red and Blue, g his hands, summoning whatever he desired, trapping all enemy ninja in Unlimited Void, and then…

  “Cough, that's a bit too overpowered. I’ll save the gloating for when I have enough chakra to spam abilities after using Unlimited Void. Or maybe when Minato and I develop a bination attack.”

  Gojo Kaigetsu stroked his , fog on [Bck Fsh]. Looking at the skill description, he had a feeling he wasn’t the optimal user for Bck Fsh.

  “I’ll have t that Gai kid along for some training in a few days.”

  As Gojo Kaigetsu indulged in his fantasy, the system’s notification sounded again, but this time, it wasn't good news:

  [Green Card Vilger - Honey Mert - Big Boss's honey sales are stagnant. He pihat Konoha isn't what he imagined and is spreadiive rumors, intending to write letters inf his friends and family. Prosperity -5]

  [Green Card Vilger - Ninja Tool Shop Owner - Kobori Taiten refuses to cooperate with the *Iki III* promotion, believing it's false advertising and will ively impact his shop. Prosperity -3]

  [Green Card Vilger - Bookstore Owner…]

  “Damn these ungrateful peasants!”

  Gojo Kaigetsu abruptly sat up in bed, his expression unusually serious.

  While -3 and -5 seemed like insignifit penalties, if left unchecked, their grievances and dissatisfa could ferment and spread, potentially triggering a rea.

  If Big Boss reyed this information to his friends and family, it could lead to a tagious spread of ivity.

  Acc to an unknown stist’s research, it only took eight people, leveraging their respective works, to spread information to every er of the shinobi world.

  In yman’s terms, it was the cssic “word of mouth” phenomenon.

  This would effectively elimiential Green Card users. If people learhrough word of mouth that “Konoha’s air isn’t that sweet” and the “business enviro isn’t that great,” then no amount of Iki updates or endorsements from “experts” or “influencers” would help.

  After all, people teo trust what they heard from others more than what they read.

  “My friend,” “My buddy,” “My childhood friend,” “My retive”…

  “Eliminating Big Boss would be the most straightforward solution. Dead men tell no tales. But I ’t do that. The Green Card vilgers have their own little unity.”

  “So, he’s essentially the head of the Land of Water Green Card Union?”

  Gojo Kaigetsu hated two kinds of people: bosses who didn’t meet sary expectations and troublemaking union leaders.

  “Giving him money directly is out of the question. Nobody gets a single ryō from me. In that case, the only way to appease him is… advertising.”

  …

  …

  *Kumogakure*

  Live free in Kumogakure, rob every day!

  This was a dark joke cirg among the vilgers.

  As everyone knew, Kumogakure champiohe rule of the fist. The vilge ws, to a certaient, yielded to brute force. Might made right. This principle, bined with the nature of the refugees from the Land of Water, created an iing chemical rea.

  Most of the refugees who came to Kumogakure were those rejected by Konoha: individuals with criminal records or impure iions.

  If even Kumogakure refused them, these people might bee idle sdrels, bandits, rogue samurai, ue ninja, being the muscle for mafia-like mert guilds.

  But Kumogakure accepted them, even generous bes!

  And some chose to repay this kindness with… well, let's just say they werely model citizens.

  The most obvious indicator was the skyrocketing crime rate in southern Kumogakure. Sees, emboldened by the vilge's special treatment, even dared to publicly stop native Kumogakure vilgers carrying swords, pointing at the grouween their legs and saying:

  “You Kumogakure people, though tall and muscur, are nothing but cowards. If you’re not afraid of punishment, stab me. If you are, crawl between my legs!”

  As it turned out, the young Kumogakure vilger actually killed the refugee. This i sparked an “anti-refugee wave” within Kumogakure.

  The elder of the southern Kumogakure stepped forward, deg that if these “water devils” weren’t expelled, he would lead the southern s and families to secede from Kumogakure, reverting to the pre-First Shinobi World War state.

  The various hidden vilges were essentially a colle of s and families, united by geography, culture, and s to fight against vilges with differing ideologies.

  They coexisted, and if one day they couldn’t coexist anymore… legally speaking, there was no basis for attag a seg fa.

  Following this decration, the southern s dispatched ninja to engage in armed standoffs and muscle-flexing tests with Kumogakure ninja, while secretly transp cartloads ees to the viity of the s bag the Raikage’s elder cil.

  Such as infuriated the elder cil, especially A’s adoptive father.

  But for the same reason as Danzo, if they didn't adhere to their own policies, how could they maintain order within the vilge? How could the elders tiheir work?

  In the end, they had to swallow their anger, issuing a public statement ning the southern s for their defiand prioritizing their own is over the vilge’s, while secretly plotting to erect feo prevent the refugees from being dumped on their doorstep.

  It was plete chaos.

  Ihe somewhat gloomy meeting room of the Raikage Tower,

  Raikage A broke the silence. “Is there still no news from Samui?”

  Mabui, his secretary, clutched a file, quickly rep, “It’s been fourteen days sihe st transmission using the Heart-to-Heart unication Jutsu. Tomorrow… Samui should send back the test intel from Konoha.”

  Hearing this, A’s furrowed brow rexed.

  He couldn’t bme Samui. After all, she against one of the Sannin, Jiraiya. It was wise to be cautious. If her identity as a Kumogakure spy was exposed by Jiraiya, all their efforts would be wasted.

  Now, it seemed his only hope rested on the accurate intel Samui would send back.

  Those old fogies on the elder cil… Just thinking about them made A’s blood boil. He decided to put them out of his mind. Even with his muscle-bound brain, looking at the mess happening in the south, A realized he had to act like a Raikage, not just blindly follow the elders' instrus.

  To overe his aversion to thinking, he had forced himself to read many books retly. Of course, not the trash Killer B read, but proper, respectable books.

  Books like “Strategies of the Land of Fire,” “Thirty-Six Stratagems,” and “Three Years of the Shinobi World,” published by the official Land of Fire publishing house… Although A was relut to admit it, just looking at the titles made him feel that the Land of Lightning’s cultural level gged behind that of the Land of Fire.

  Not to mention, the “A Thousand ryō for a Shuriken” ae mentioned by his adoptive father came from “Strategies of the Land of Fire.” There were many simir passages that had enlightened A, so much so that he even skipped his muscle-training routihese past few days.

  “Has the official statement bee out to all ers of the shinobi world?”

  “Yes, Raikage-sama.”

  “Both our Kumogakure statement and Konoha’s statement have been annouhis is Konoha’s statement, please review it.”

  A took the report taining Konoha’s statement and carefully exami.

  “Heh, I ugh at Minato’s ck of strategy and Gojo’s ck of wit…” A chuckled, his newly learned perspective. “What ‘humanitarian aid’? Isn’t this subtly pointing out the internal problems within Kirigakure?”

  “Those monkeys, seeing such a statement, will rush into Konoha’s territory and unch suicidal attacks like madmen.”

  A shook his head. With newfound wisdom, the world seemed to have ged.

  Although there were siderable internal flicts within Kumogakure, they were generally unfolding acc to his adoptive father’s predis.

  With the statements from both vilges released… A was almost certain that within three days, Kirigakure’s emissaries would arrive in Kumogakure to request an alliance against Konoha.

  As for the reason… Kirigakure wouldn’t dare offend two vilges simultaneously, so they would definitely choose to ally with one. Kumogakure had shown Kirigakure respect, while Konoha was subtly critig their internal affairs. Kumogakure had already gained a signifit advantage.

  , he would agree to the alliance, offer Kirigakure some small bes, let them be the vanguard to deplete Konoha’s forces, while Kumogakure sat bad watched the tigers fight.

  Weakening Konoha while bringing Kirigakure under Kumogakure’s influence!

  What a wonderful opening gambit!

  A experiehe joy of using his brain for the first time. This power of strategy, achieving great bes without flexing a muscle, was truly addictive.

  “No wonder adoptive father and the others enjoy using their intellect.” A tapped his temple smugly.

  Besides the good news of Kirigakure potentially joining the Greater Kumogakure Co-Prosperity Sphere, the successor to the Two-Tails Jinchuriki had also been chosen. Yugito Nii, a veteran Jonin of Kumogakure, a highly trustworthy individual.

  “Kumogakure… is truly thriving. If the old man could see this from above, he would be pleased.” A mused.

  Just then-

  Two hurried sets of footsteps approached from outside.

  A looked up. One was Atsui, Samui’s younger brother, a seasoned in who had bee a fidant of the Raikage due to his sister’s influehe other was a nameless messenger from the elder cil.

  Raikage A raised his hand, deg to use the eloquent phrasing he had learned from books. “I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t rush. Speak o a time. Atsui, you first.”

  Atsui wiped the sweat from his brow. “Raikage-sama, it’s terrible… those water devils from Kirigakure, they… they’ve signed an alliareaty with Konoha!”

  “Nanda te! Temee!” A shot up from his seat, red steam seemingly erupting from his dark face. He smmed his hand on the desk, shattering it.

  A wave of humiliation washed over him.
