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

Tanuki?

Ye Cang searched quickly in his mind and quickly found out what the "tanuki" Nara Langui mentioned was referring to.

Ichibi, Shukaku!

Gaara has been a Jinchūriki for several years.

Due to being too young, the mental energy is relatively lacking, and the quality of the "Tailed Beast Sealing Technique" possessed by Sand Hidden Village is not very high, especially the occasional "crazy assassinations" from his own father and uncle. "act" stimulation.

Cases of Gaara losing control still happen from time to time.

As a Jinchuuriki, Gaara, every time he loses control, the "tattooed tanuki" with a fat head, big ears, and a big belly will appear in the Sunagakure Village.

Therefore, Ye Cang is very familiar with the general image of Ichibi Shukaku.

Of course, if any ninja dares to say "big tanuki" in front of Ichibi Shukaku, then Ichibi Shukaku will definitely spray sand all over him.

To be precise, Ichibi Shukaku is not a "tanuki", it just looks a bit like a "tanuki", and its overall image is based on the "raccoon dog".

But just like Nara Langui always likes to call King Mu of the Five Tails "Big White Deer".

In the eyes of Nara Langui, Ichibi Shukaku is indeed a "socially tattooed yellow raccoon cat"!

but.

"no!"

Ye Cang refused Nara Langui's request almost without thinking.

joke.

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa has been successfully captured by Nara Langui. If nothing else happens, this guy will go to see the Six Paths Sage soon.

At this time, if Nara Langui is allowed to take the one-tailed Shukaku away from Sunagakure Village, how much will the overall strength of Sunagakure Village drop?

"The One-Tailed Shukaku is the inseparable power of tailed beasts in Sunagakure Village since ancient times!"

"Ah!"

Nara Langui sneered.

What Ye Cang said was indeed correct.

The Five Shadows Talks have been held twice so far. (once in the original timeline)

The "Tailed Beast Trade" also started twice.

But none of the "tailed beast trades" involved a one-tailed Shukaku.

When the first Hokage Senju Hashirama captured and sold tailed beasts, he only caught eight.

Ichibi Shukaku remained in the hands of the Kingdom of Wind from beginning to end.

Although Nara Langui doesn't know how the seal of Ichibi Shukaku was transferred from the "Wind Country Ninja Temple" to the hands of "Sunagakure Village"...

However, for Hayakura, the one-tailed Shukaku is indeed the tailed beast power that Sunagakure Village has had "since ancient times".

"You regard Ichibi Shukaku as your own strength."

The smile on Nara Langui's face did not diminish.

"But since the beginning of the blessings, to Gaara now, has Shukaku ever truly served your Sunagakure Village?"

Lies don't hurt.

The truth is the sharpest knife.

As early as the period of the Second Kazekage Samana, Sunagakure Village began plans related to the "weaponization of tailed beasts."

However, the "Tailed Beast Weapon" of Ichibi Shukaku has never been truly mastered by Sunagakure Village.

In fact, the ninjas in other villages have never encountered the power of Ichibi Shukaku.

On the contrary, Sunagakure Village has often had to deal with the out-of-control and violent One-Old Shukaku in recent years.

For a ninja village, every time a Jinchuriki loses control, it will bring great destruction.

The eight-tailed jinchūriki of the Hidden Cloud Village are a good proof.

And due to the special environment, Ichibi Shukaku can exert its full power in Sunagakure Village, and even get a certain "site bonus" effect from the surrounding natural environment.

Sunagakure Village was not very wealthy to begin with.

Under Shukaku Ichibi's frequent rampages, the already poor Sunagakure Village has become even worse.

If it weren't for Rasa's [Princess Gold Secret Technique], he could forcibly suppress the rampaging Ichibi Shukaku from the front.

The huge Sunagakure Village may have been reduced to ruins due to Gaara's many out-of-control attacks!

"in addition."

Nara Langui added another sentence.

"Can Sunagakure Village really continue to withstand Ichibi Shukaku's frequent rampages?"

Nara Langui went to Sand Hidden Village in person and eliminated Luo Sha for Ye Cang in order to promote the "New Kazekage Plan" planned by the two before.

Luo Sha is gone!

Now.

Who else can Sunagakure Village allow to suppress the rampaging Ichibi Shukaku?

Ye Cang?

She is indeed strong enough to withstand the rampaging Ichibi Shukaku.

According to the intelligence information obtained by Nara Langui.

After Ye Cang returned to Sand Hidden Village, he also had several encounters and battles with the out-of-control Gaara.

Although "fighting against Ichibi, demonstrating one's own strength, and gaining the trust of the Sunagakure ninja" was originally Nara's plan for Katsura and Hayakura.

But what I have to admit is that when it comes to "fighting Ichibi Shukaku", Ye Cang's [Scorching Release] and [Swift Release] are indeed not as powerful as Rasa's [Magnetic Release].

Facing the endless yellow sand of Ichibi Shukaku, Ye Cang's [Scorch Release] couldn't even break through the defensive wall of Shukaku's "Sand Shield".

Although the temperature of [Scorching Escape] is high, it is not capable of melting gravel instantly.

To deal with Ichibi Shukaku, Ye Cang mainly relies on the [Snap Escape] taught to her by Nara Langui.

The advantage of [Swift Escape] is speed, but the disadvantage is "only speed".

Hagura is able to use her extreme speed to effectively kill Ichibi Shukaku.

But Ye Cang has no way to restrict Shukaku Ichibi's actions!

At the same time, facing the rampage of Ichibi Shukaku, the post-war losses of Sunagakure Village were calculated numerically.

If Ye Cang solves the rampage incident, the loss suffered by Sunagakure Village will be "10".

Then if Luo Sha takes action, the loss suffered by Sunagakure Village may be only "4", or even lower.

after all.

The special geographical environment of Sand Hidden Village is filled with yellow sand.

For Ichibi Shukaku, it is the "home field".

It is also the "home field" for Luo Sha!

Luo Sha's [Secret Technique of Placer Gold] can even actively mix into the yellow sand controlled by Ichibi Shukaku, thereby limiting the power of Ichibi Shukaku.

This is something Ye Cang simply cannot do.

Ye Cang pursed his lips hard.

Although Nara Langui did not elaborate on some words, Ye Cang himself could still be aware of them.

Moreover, what Ye Cang is thinking about now is a little deeper than what Nara Langui is thinking about.

First of all, Sunagakure Village has never truly mastered the power of Ichibi Shukaku.

Secondly, having lost Rasa, Sunagakure could no longer afford the one-tailed Shukaku's rampage at a slight cost like before.

Finally, due to Rasa's own bizarre manipulations, Gaara, as a jinchūriki, had no sense of belonging or identification with Sunagakure Village at all.

This also means that the number of times Ichibi Shukaku loses control will not decrease in the future, but will become more!

Gaara, who is hostile to Sunagakure Village, may not only not restrict Ichibi Shukaku's rampage, but may also actively allow Onebi Shukaku to lose control.

When Ye Cang thought of this, he was covered in cold sweat and his hands and feet were cold.

Luo Sha has obviously been solved.

It was obvious that she was going to become the new Kazekage.

Why do two excellent things come together and lead to a more troublesome situation?

Is it possible...

Is it the right choice to hand over Gaara and Ichibi Shukaku to Nara Langui and Konoha?

Emotionally, Ye Cang couldn't accept this situation.

But her reason told her that it was indeed in the interest of the village to hand Gaara over now.

"you……"

Ye Cang was silent for a long time, then spoke with great difficulty.

“The village has been working hard to cultivate Shukaku’s Jinchuuriki.

"Moreover, Gaara is the son of the Fourth Kazekage..."

Nara Langui raised his eyebrows, vaguely foreshadowing something.

He looked playful.

"I'll add money!"

First update.

The second update may be very, very late.

Good night everyone.
