I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

Nara Shikaku took the order and left.

A few minutes later.

The Executive Deputy Hokage returned to the Hokage's office with information about the Loulan Kingdom and the Red Sand Scorpion.

"My lord Yondaime, this is the intelligence file you want."

Nara Shikaku delivered the two scrolls to the coffee table and reminded them at the same time.

"Due to the request for help from Sha Yin and Loulan, this file also has some updated content."

Nara Langui nodded towards the other party. He first picked up Loulan's intelligence file and browsed it at a glance.

In the ninja world, Loulan is just a little-known country that doesn't even have its own ninja village.

However, due to its special geographical location, Konoha still noticed the existence of this small country and specially collected some information about this small country's national conditions.

'The Loulan Kingdom is located in the middle area between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Wind, adjacent to the Kingdom of Sichuan. The country has a small border area and an arid climate...'

'The daimyo of the Loulan Kingdom is a very rare female daimyo, similar to the witches of the Kingdom of Ghosts...'

'About five years ago, the Queen of Loulan appointed a minister of state, An Lushan...'

'Under An Lushan's governance, Loulan's economy developed, the people were harmonious and friendly, and they were far away from the threat of war...'

When he read this, Nara Langui's eyes suddenly condensed.

really!

The name An Lushan appeared!

According to the intelligence information held by Nara Langui, the Loulan minister named "An Lushan", who is actually "Hibizu", is actually a rebel ninja from Sunagakure who traveled from the future to the present.

However, Konoha did not know this news.

Regarding "An Lushan", the Minister of Loulan, Konoha did not specifically collect relevant information about the other party. It only briefly described the other party's ability to govern the country in the scroll, and also described the other party's noble status in the Loulan Kingdom.

Nara Langui skipped these irrelevant topics and turned the file in his hand to the end.

At the end of the intelligence file, there are lines of black text that the ink has not dried on, which is exactly the "update content" Nara Shikaku mentioned just now.

'About a week ago, the S-class rebel ninja Red Sand Scorpion from Shayin Village appeared in Loulan Kingdom...'

'The Scarlet Sand Scorpion used the extremely terrifying puppet ninjutsu to break through Loulan Kingdom's defense...'

'During the war, the Queen of Loulan Kingdom died unexpectedly...'

So is this the real reason why Loulan and Sand Hidden Village asked Konoha for help?

A country's famous figure died unexpectedly?

Nara Langui's brows raised slightly.

In his memory, the Red Sand Scorpion did have a record of conquering a small country. The opponent's "Red Secret Technique: Hundred Machine Exercises" was a super-large-scale puppet ninjutsu born for war.

However, Nara Langui doesn’t know which small country was destroyed by the Red Sand Scorpion...

Now it seems that it is actually Loulan Kingdom?

This actually surprised Nara Langui.

‘What is the reason why the Crimson Sand Scorpion went to Loulan? ’

‘Is he also attracted by Loulan’s dragon vein chakra? Or Loulan? Or was it Baizu's puppetry that attracted him? ’

‘The Red Sand Scorpion’s scientific research level is also very high, especially since this guy later transformed himself into a regenerative core! ’

'A device the size of a heart can actually contain all the chakra of a shadow-level being like the Red Sand Scorpion, and can also control so many puppets...'

‘This level of technology is almost catching up with that guy Orochimaru, right? ’

Nara Langui suppressed the association with the special ability of the Red Sand Scorpion.

He also discovered a few "minor problems" in the Loulan Kingdom's intelligence files.

Compared to the information collected by Konoha, Nara Langui was more willing to believe in the true information he knew in advance.

For example...

In this file, the Queen of Loulan Kingdom is described as "died unexpectedly during the war."

But Nara Langui knew that the Queen of Loulan Kingdom was actually designed to be killed by Baizu, a rebellious ninja!

'The information collected by Konoha is wrong... This is inevitable. ’

Nara Langui put down the information scroll about Loulan in his hand and picked up another one.

This is relevant information about the Red Sand Scorpion.

‘The Scorpion of Crimson Sand, an S-class rebel ninja from Hidden Sand Village…in the process of conquering Loulan Kingdom, he summoned a puppet army at once…extremely powerful’

Compared to Loulan Kingdom’s intelligence scroll.

The intelligence information of the Red Sand Scorpion is obviously much "rudimentary".

There are only a few lines of text recorded in the pure white scroll.

Nara Langui did not feel disappointed.

Ninjas attach great importance to the confidentiality of information.

Konoha did not collect enough intelligence information about the Red Sand Scorpion.

On the one hand, it is because the Red Sand Scorpion has a low reputation in this period.

On the other hand, it is also because the Red Sand Scorpion is deliberately preserving his abilities and secrets.

But now Sunagakure Village has given the Red Sand Scorpion the title of "S-Class Rebellious Ninja".

In the future, various countries and ninja villages will also pay more attention to this S-class rebellious ninja from Sunagakure Village.

After collecting enough intelligence information and encountering a suitable opportunity, a Ninja Village might attack this S-class rebellious Ninja.

This is also the normal attitude of most ninja villages towards rebellious ninjas.

After browsing the information, Nara Langui put down the scroll in his hand and looked at the Deputy Hokage sincerely.

"Brother Shikaku."

For some reason, Nara Shikaku felt a very familiar feeling in his heart.

just like……

It's like big trouble is coming at your door soon!

But after all, it was the Hokage who asked the question, and the other party was the head of his family.

Nara Shikaku pretended to be calm.

"Yes, Yondaime-sama."

"Is there any precedent in the village for the Hokage to go out on a mission alone?"

Naruto?

Going out alone?

On a mission?

Do you want to hear what you are saying?

Nara Shikaku roared in his heart, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.

"In my memory, there should be no..."

A village as big as Konoha has tens of thousands of ninjas under its command.

What if Naruto is asked to go out on a mission alone?

So what do you want other ninjas to do?

Are you cheering for Hokage-sama! ?

"Then you think of a way."

Nara Langui stood up and stretched greatly at the same time.

"I have some grudges with the Crimson Sand Scorpion. Now that this guy has come to my door, I don't intend to let go of this rare opportunity."

Nara Langui did not tell Nara Shikaku that he planned to plot the Dragon Vein of Loulan Kingdom.

This kind of thing is so exciting that it may be beyond the acceptance range of the deputy Hokage.

Nara Langui couldn't see that his family was worried, so he decided to give the other party some buffer time.

"That's it!"

Nara Langui's figure disappeared into the Hokage's office, leaving only two light words of explanation.

"I'm going to find someone to ask some other questions."

Nara Shikaku stretched out his right hand in vain, but only caught an afterimage.

"Four generations--"

Yesterday's Chapter 420 was released at around 9 o'clock this morning.

I asked the editor specifically in the afternoon, and the editor didn’t know the reason for the blocking...

The editor's exact reply was "system blocked."

Maybe it’s because I touched the river crab mythical beast somewhere in the previous chapter?

The problem is that it's okay to drive in the previous chapter.

The normal content of the previous chapter was deleted.

It's a bit hard to understand.
