On the other hand, it is also to differentiate the relationship between big countries.

Everyone present knew this very well.

Being in high positions, they can get first-hand information, and there are dedicated strategic analysts beside them. Shiraishi's purpose of initiating this meeting couldn't be simpler after a little thought.

As long as the connection between the big countries is broken, the relationship between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Earth may be eased. Then, in the western part of the continent, the Kingdom of Ghosts can focus on the Kingdom of Wind and let the Kingdom of Earth

The alliance between the country and the country of wind collapsed.

The merchant alliance on the isolated island is a meeting gift paid by Shiraishi.

At the same time, disrupting the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Rain can also create obstacles for the Kingdom of Fire.

Regarding this kind of thing, the Kingdom of Thunder must also be willing to see it.

The Kingdom of Thunder has been developing its military power and is eyeing the title of the largest country.

So, the first goal is to bring down the Kingdom of Fire, so that the Kingdom of Thunder can become the largest country.

Lure the country of earth with benefits.

Use the status of the Fire Nation to lure the Thunder Nation.

Shiraishi always prescribes the right medicine.

What the Kingdom of Thunder craves more than money is status, and money is just a by-product.

Only Yagura is the ally Shiraishi wants to support.

On the other hand, bringing the Tsuchikage and Raikage in was also a cover for his secret alliance with Yagura.

"Indeed, as a businessman, you just need to practice business honestly. If you want to dominate the country with money, it will indeed lay the foundation for huge hidden dangers."

Ohnoki was dissatisfied.

This dissatisfaction is not directed at Shiraishi, but at the Country of Fire and Konoha.

The merchant alliance, which has clearly planned to unite with the Earth Kingdom, but secretly plans to monopolize the island, is not too greedy as an ally without saying hello to the Earth Kingdom and Iwagakure Village.

As a result, Ōnoki doesn't really want to interfere in the affairs of the Kingdom of Rain, so he should just let the three countries - the Kingdom of Fire, the Kingdom of Ghosts, and the Kingdom of Rain - get entangled.

Seeing that the Fire Nation, which had repeatedly defeated the Earth Nation, was pulled down, Onoki felt secretly happy in his heart.

The more fiercely these countries fight, the better, and it would be best if the Country of Wind also gets involved.

"So, as the sponsor, what are you going to do?"

The Fourth Raikage looked at Shiraishi and asked.

"It is not difficult for us to capture the isolated island, but we need to pay attention to the subsequent handling of public opinion."

"We will handle this matter internally and combine the forces of the four countries. Once we have enough evidence of crime, we will be able to settle the matter."

The Fourth Raikage said.

An isolated island?

He doesn't care about this kind of power at all. Although the interests involved behind it are huge, no matter how big the interests are, with the military power of the four powerful countries, they are not worth mentioning.

Just destroy the merchant alliance on the isolated island and then cultivate a more obedient merchant alliance.

For this kind of thing, there will definitely be follow-up treatment on the daimyo side, instead of just letting it go after it is eliminated.

What the Kingdom of Thunder wants is to suppress the Kingdom of Fire and fulfill its long-cherished wish to become the largest nation in the ninja world.

Whether it is money, resources, or military power, there is nothing that the Kingdom of Thunder lacks.

"Then it will be easy. After the four countries have destroyed the isolated island, we will value the things there and finally divide them equally. What do you think?"

Shiraishi put forward this opinion.

"Split equally?"

Onoki raised his eyebrows.

"Do you have any opinions, Lord Tsuchikage?"

Shiraishi swept towards Onoki.

"No, I just think this plan is very reasonable. I have no objection."

Onoki smiled, and then fell silent.

In fact, he wanted to take advantage of the Demon Country's status as not being a big country to reduce the interests belonging to the Demon Country, but when he saw that the Fourth Raikage and Yagura didn't seem to have any objections, he had no choice but to comply.

Although it does not have the name of a great country, the Kingdom of Ghosts has a military strength that is not inferior to that of the great powers.

An equal division does not seem to be unacceptable.

"Then, please ask the three of you to sign the agreement. After that, we will discuss the time to attack the island, how many manpower will be needed, and make proper arrangements."

As soon as Shiraishi finished speaking, Tianyu Nu had already placed the three prepared agreements in front of Ohnoki, the Fourth Raikage and Yagura.

The three of them will replace the daimyo of their respective countries and sign this cooperation agreement for the actions of the Lonely Island Merchant Alliance.

"Did another assassination happen? These guys really did everything they could to force me to show up."

In the office study room, Yiji didn't know how many times she had received such news. From the helplessness at the beginning, to the numbness now.

I can't say how angry I am, after all, in Kaichi's opinion, this is just a last ditch effort.

Being able to only use side tactics such as assassination already means that this group of isolated island businessmen who cooperated with the Country of Fire have run out of skills.

"They are businessmen after all. Apart from money, they have no other means."

If it were a normal business competition, Cardo might have to scramble, but assassination... facing today's ghost country, these businessmen really dare to think about it.

Did the Fire Nation give them such confidence?

"I heard that you were attacked recently. Is this true?"

Yiji looked at Kado.

"Thanks to Miss, we finally had a close call."

Kado said modestly.

In fact, without even seeing the faces of the assassins, he was picked out by his guards and buried where no one could see him.

For a group of assassins who were licking blood from their swords, there was no need to be merciful, just let them disappear. They also warned the businessmen not to use such boring assassination methods.

If assassination is really necessary, the power of the Kingdom of Ghosts can kill these businessmen countless times.

It's just not necessary, and it doesn't conform to the philosophy of the Demon Country's military.

Once assassination tactics become popular, the reputation of the Demon Country's military will be questioned by the public.

"What did the headquarters say?"

The merchant alliance on the isolated island has officially taken action. So, this kind of thing must be reported to the military headquarters of the Country of Ghosts, so that the headquarters can understand the situation of the Country of Waves in a timely manner and make effective countermeasures.

"wait."

Kado gave only one word.

"wait?"

"This place is very close to the Country of Fire. If you rashly provoke a fight in the Country of Waves, it will be easy for the Country of Fire to take advantage."

"This is not what the old man always does."

Yi Ji pondered for a moment.

He knows that Shiraishi always likes to make plans before taking action, but that doesn't mean that he will be the kind of person who doesn't fight back after suffering a loss, nor does he like to be passively beaten all the time.

Therefore, Yiji was a little confused by the instructions given by the headquarters.

"Maybe Mr. Shiraishi has other considerations. After all, the Kingdom of Ghosts is not only facing the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Rain. The underground black market has also begun to rebound. Although it does not pose a big threat, it can still give people

The military is causing some trouble."

Cardo said.

"No need to explain, I know this kind of thing very well. Since this is the decision of the headquarters, then I will implement it."

The disparity in intelligence is something that Yi Ji knows about.

The headquarters made such a decision because they must have known some information that she did not have, or they had started a plan that she did not know about. Let her wait for the opportunity here to keep her in peace and not affect the rear.

layout.

Lack of experience is Yiji's biggest shortcoming.

Therefore, here in the Country of Waves, she focuses more on studying, and Cardo handles most of the things.

Cardo nodded and was about to say something when suddenly the study door was pushed open without permission.

A ninja from the Kingdom of Ghosts ran in in a hurry, his whole body soaked with water, his face anxious, as if he had encountered some urgent sudden accident.

"It's not good, Miss, the dam that protects the coast from waves has been washed away by the sea!"

"Dam? Where's the dam broke?"
