Chapter 21 Can't Adapt That night, Shiba Kiyokawa didn't do anything to Uzumaki Kaoru after all. He just practiced some healing ninjutsu on her and then advised her to go back and rest. The next morning, the group woke up early, packed up their things without stopping, and left the town as quickly as possible. Although they still had a lot of supplies that had not been sold, they could no longer take care of them at the moment. At this time, it is more important to evacuate the Land of Grass as soon as possible and bring Uzumaki Kaoru back to Akatsuki safely! On the way back, Zhiba Qinghe yawned several times in a row, which made Xiaonan beside him feel very guilty. "Thank you for your hard work, Qinghe. You must have a good rest when you return." Shiba Kiyokawa worked so hard for Nagato and us, and I actually doubted him before. Damn me! Xiaonan secretly blamed herself in her heart. Behind the two of them, Uzumaki Kaoru was being carried on Nagato's back as they hurried along. When she saw Konan caring about Shiba Kiyokawa, her mood was unexpectedly complicated. On the one hand, Konan's words made her even more grateful for Shiba Kiyokawa's kindness. On the other hand, she felt a little disappointed. Was it because she was too old and not young enough in comparison that he was so polite last night? Xiangye thought to herself with self-pity.
Shiba Kiyokawa had no idea that the people around him had so many inner thoughts because of his yawns. He really just didn't sleep well. But the next moment, Shiba Qinghe's face suddenly changed while running. "What's wrong? Did something happen?" Xiaonan rushed over to him and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, asking anxiously. "It's okay." Shiba Qinghe shook his head. It has nothing to do with the people around you. He was suddenly surprised because he accidentally checked the system and found that his destined ending had changed again. The probability of dying of old age remains unchanged at However, the probabilities of those endings in which they died in Konoha a few years later have all shrunk to varying degrees. In other words, the probability that he will not survive more than a year and a half has greatly increased! What's going on? Why is this happening?! Has he done anything wrong recently? Is it because he saved Xiangye? But that doesn't make sense! In the original work, Uzumaki Karin and even her daughter Uzumaki Karin had no connection with the Akatsuki organization from beginning to end. It doesn't make sense that saving an unrelated person would greatly accelerate the crisis, right? On the way back, Shiba Qinghe kept racking his brains, and finally confirmed that there was no reason why his recent behavior would have such an impact! Then there is only one answer! If it's not his problem, then it can only be an internal problem of the Rain Country! Could it be that Yahiko did something stupid again? So as soon as he returned to the Akatsuki organization's base, Shiba Kiyokawa immediately rushed to see Yahiko. He never thought that the other party was also looking for him at this moment, and as soon as he saw him, he asked for help impatiently. "Qinghe? I'm so glad you're back. I've just been dealing with a difficult matter and need your advice."
It turns out that there is something wrong with you, kid! After resolving the doubts, Shiba Qinghe calmed down and said, "Tell me, what happened?" "Recently, when we try to gather stray ninjas, we always encounter covert or overt obstruction from other Rain Ninjas. Some members of our organization also reported that they were robbed and blackmailed by other Rain Ninjas recently. This has made everyone very uneasy." "Other Rain Ninjas?" Shiba Kiyokawa suddenly realized, "Are they the subordinates of Hanzo Salamander?" "Yes." Yahiko nodded obediently and admitted. "Why are they suddenly targeting us? What have you done recently?" Shiba Qinghe continued to ask. Yahiko was also innocent. "We didn't do anything extra. We just helped the neighbors, promoted our ideals, and took in wandering orphans and refugees as usual." To be honest, Yahiko is indeed a kind person, and he is the kind of person who practices what he preaches and does everything by himself. He is definitely not the disgusting saintly bitch in later generations. It’s a pity that we are living in a turbulent time now, and Shiba Kiyokawa quickly and keenly discovered his mistake! "Wait, have you been providing aid recently? How much supplies have you consumed in the past few days?" Yahiko couldn't help but show an embarrassed look on his face. "Not much, only... a quarter of the warehouse has been used up." Shiba Qinghe's eyes widened instantly. Take less? ! You have to know that the secret warehouse in Ando is storing a large amount of supplies that is enough to shake up the prices of goods in the Rain Country! Only a few days had passed, and Yahiko had already dispersed a quarter of it! No wonder Hanzo's men came here to extort and rob! If it were him, he would do the same! Who wouldn't be jealous of such a fat sheep? Shiba Qinghe sighed and said, "Stop immediately, Yahiko! Stop it, there are rain ninjas everywhere outside." Then Shiba Kiyokawa tapped the tabletop with his fingers, tapping rhythmically, sorting out his thoughts, and asked, "Do you usually keep in touch with Hanzo of the Salamander?" Yahiko's expression became increasingly awkward. "Occasionally, I would write letters to keep in touch." "How often is it occasionally?" "Two years ago I wrote a ..." My goodness, it’s only been a few years since you founded Akatsuki? Now, Shiba Qinghe began to feel more and more that your death in the original book was not unjust. It is certainly a good thing to have good intentions and the ability to take action, but Yahiko is too ignorant of the ways of the world. The nominal boss of the Rain Country has always been Hanzo the Salamander! In its early days, Akatsuki was a small, grassroots grassroots organization, so it didn't need to report to the authorities. Now that they have grown to such a large scale and have recently received such great benefits, they still don't even say hello. Which boss can tolerate this? Thinking back to his mocking words to Minato Namikaze not long ago, he never thought that it would turn into a boomerang so quickly and hit them themselves - You are not even willing to call him Lord Demigod, you have no respect for him at all. After figuring this out, Shiba Qinghe immediately knew what to do. "Stop throwing money around right now, Yahiko, you're bringing hatred to the Akatsuki organization! Also take out half of the supplies you have consumed in the past few days, seal them up with a scroll, and send them to be delivered to Salamander Hanzo.
And give me the channel you used to write letters, and I will write a letter to Hanzo." As he said this, he also asked a follower ninja of Yahiko who was nearby. "How's the matter going with the copying of the statement from Minato Namikaze that I asked you to do?" The man glanced at Yahiko and saw that the leader was scolded so badly that he couldn't even lift his head. He had no choice but to answer in detail, "I have copied more than a hundred copies according to your request." Shiba Qinghe nodded, "Very good, spread these copied statements to the surrounding towns in the near future. It is important to emphasize that this was a concession made by the next Hokage of Konoha out of respect for Lord Hanzo's strength. It was Lord Hanzo who once again protected the Rain Country! You have to say this, understand? Also, mobilize the refugees who received our aid and have them spread the news. It would be best if it could spread throughout the Rain Country as quickly as possible." Yahiko's follower looked embarrassed and unwilling, and looked at Yahiko several times. But Yahiko was overwhelmed by the recent conflict and could not think of a solution. Even he could only seek help from Shiba Kiyokawa's wisdom. How could he support his subordinates? "Do as Qinghe-kun tells you. His wisdom is indispensable to us right now." This was the only way Yahiko could comfort his followers. Shiba Qinghe chuckled and said, "It's an honor. It's rare to hear you praise me like this." Yahiko's cheeks twitched stiffly twice. Although he didn't want to admit it, he had no way to refute it. What hurt Yahiko even more was that the next moment Nagato and Konan pushed the door open together and congratulated him at the same time. "Great, Yahiko, you're finally willing to trust Qinghe's wisdom!" Xiaonan is fine, but how come the company manager has become like this after just one trip? ! It's hard to describe Yahiko's mood at this moment. Why does it feel like the world around him is changing so fast? He can't adapt to it! (End of this chapter)
