The silent air made Shibuki feel a sense of oppression.
Shibuki gritted his teeth, his eyes fixed on Yūto and Konan:
"I can tell you how the Hero Water is made, but you must promise not to harm anyone in Takigakure."
"Shibuki!"
Fū looked towards Shibuki and shouted.
Seeing Shibuki acting as if they were villains, Yūto couldn't help but turn his head to glance at Konan beside him, shrugging helplessly.
"As the leader of Takigakure, there's one thing you still haven't understood up to now."
Yūto looked at Shibuki with calm eyes.
Shibuki's eyes widened slightly, clearly not understanding the meaning of Yūto's words, but he still maintained a posture ready to fight to the death at any moment.
"If I truly wanted to attack you, no one in your entire Takigakure could stop me. Destroying you wouldn't take me long."
Yūto's voice slowly sounded, and as these words fell,
Boom!
A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Yūto's body.
A powerful energy fluctuation swept around, causing Shibuki, who was standing not far in front, to involuntarily retreat several steps.
Feeling Yūto's indifferent gaze, Shibuki's entire body couldn't help but tremble.
Shibuki swallowed, just a single glance made him feel as if his life no longer belonged to him.
Meanwhile, Fū, who was bound by the Adamantine Sealing Chains, couldn't help but show a look of horror on her face at this moment.
"Fū, he is not lying. Do not try to use force against this person in front of you."
"If he has any demands, try to agree to them. Otherwise, your Takigakure will definitely be destroyed by this person in an instant."
A familiar voice suddenly sounded in Fū's mind.
Seven-Tails Chomei!
Hearing this voice, Fū's face showed joy, and then she quickly said:
"Why couldn't I use your power just now, and who exactly is this guy in front of me?"
Seven-Tails Chomei was silent for a moment, then his voice sounded in Fū's mind again:
"Do not try to provoke him."
After Seven-Tails Chomei finished speaking, his voice disappeared again. No matter how Fū responded, Seven-Tails Chomei's voice did not sound again.
At this moment, in Fū's mind, Seven-Tails Chomei was quietly lying in a cage, his eyes flickering slightly.
At this time, it would be best for them, the Tailed Beasts, not to get too involved.
Fū was slightly stunned. She actually heard a hint of fear in the Seven-Tails' voice.
So even beings like Tailed Beasts can have things they fear?
Whoosh!
The aura around Yūto suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
He extended a finger and lightly pointed towards Fū. The Adamantine Sealing Chains that were binding Fū instantly disappeared.
Fū quickly jumped up from the ground, and in a flash, she was already beside Shibuki.
"Now, let's talk about the transaction."
Yūto smiled lightly, looking at the nervous expressions on their faces.
"Transaction? What transaction?"
Shibuki and Fū exchanged glances, looking at Yūto with suspicious expressions.
"Exchange the thing that allows you to produce Hero Water for the peace of Takigakure."
Yūto smiled lightly, showing an expression that suggested he was doing it for their own good.
"What? Does your Hidden Mist Village want to annex Takigakure!"
Yūto's words were very direct, and Shibuki naturally understood.
Yūto shook his finger and softly explained: "Not annexation, but as an ally of the Mist Ninja Village."
Just as Shibuki was about to speak again, Fū stepped forward beside him and looked at Yūto, saying:
"Who are you from the Hidden Mist Village, and why should we believe you!"
Yūto raised an eyebrow, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He didn't like wasting words, especially with people weaker than him.
He moved his finger slightly, and the Chakra within Yūto's body quickly began to mobilize.
At this moment, Konan, who had been standing beside Yūto without speaking, suddenly spoke:
"Because you no longer have a choice. A new pattern in the Ninja World is about to be re-established."
"In this great change, small Ninja Villages will be the first wave to be cleansed, and you, as a Jinchuriki, will not only become a target, but your entire Takigakure could be completely destroyed because of your existence."
Konan paused slightly after saying this, a powerful aura rising from her body. She looked at Fū and Shibuki and continued:
"To truly obtain peace, you must possess sufficient power. If you don't have this power, relying on a large Ninja Village is the best option."
Yūto glanced at Konan beside him in surprise, shrugged lightly, and dispersed the Chakra that had been mobilized within his body.
Whether it was Takigakure or the many other small Ninja Villages, the moment Yūto and the other two revived, they were left with only two paths.
One was destruction, and the other was reliance.
No choice, this was the sorrow of a small Ninja Village.
Perhaps not just small Ninja Villages, but even the Five Great Ninja Villages might face a crisis of complete destruction in the coming situation if they are not careful.
Hearing Konan's words, Fū was slightly silent. She might not understand the situation of the Ninja World, but she could tell that Konan was not lying to him.
Meanwhile, Shibuki's eyes flickered with struggle. The Hero Water was not only something his father left him, but also something akin to the inheritance of Takigakure.
But at the same time, such a thing was meant to protect the village of Takigakure. For a moment, Shibuki's eyes showed a conflicted expression.
Tap! Tap!
Just then, a scattered, hurried sound of footsteps came from the distance.
Several Ninja wearing Takigakure headbands were seen rushing towards them from the distance.
And at the forefront of this group of Ninja was an old man with somewhat gray hair.
Seeing the figure of this old man, Shibuki and Fū's eyes lit up simultaneously.
"Grandfather!" Fū said with a surprised expression.
"Lord Elders."
Shibuki also showed a respectful expression.
As soon as this old man appeared, his gaze fell upon Yūto and Konan, and he also glanced at the bound villagers and the already deceased Suien.
In a few leaps, this group of Ninja had appeared beside Shibuki and the others.
The old man's face showed a kind expression. He raised his hand and gently stroked Fū's head.
Then, he gently nodded to Shibuki and sighed:
"Suien, he still chose this path after all."
After speaking, the old man turned his head to look at Yūto and Konan:
"We agree to all the demands that the two of you just made."
As the old man's words fell, Shibuki and Fū's expressions changed.
