Chapter 423: Who Was the More Critical and Important Part?
Aoba directly asked the question that Onoki had asked.
In fact, he did not need to say this.
After all, his purpose was not to fight for Sunagakure's benefits but to keep Iwagakure pressure Konohagakure, and even be in a more advantageous state during the war.
But...
Onoki's question really hit him.
It was ridiculous!
Aoba finally understood why the alliance agreement of the various villages in the ninja world was so fragile.
Not only was there no basic trust.
It also involved a very clear distribution of benefits.
These problems have caused the alliance itself to be not of one mind and make a huge rift.
For a moment.
After Aoba asked this question, he felt as if the conversation was about to collapse.
However.
He did not care about this.
After all, he was not the real Third Kazekage.
Even if Iwagakure and Sunagakure fought, it would not affect him at all.
"Kazekage-dono, this question of yours is not appropriate, right?"
Onoki squinted his eyes and tried his best to restrain his anger. He was really on the verge of erupting. This person really made him angry.
It was useless to be hard.
But with just a gentle press.
This person immediately bounced up.
"Oh?"
Aoba looked at Onoki with a smile.
"Tell me."
"What is wrong?"
"Why don't I feel it?"
Aoba deliberately said that. Of course, he knew what Onoki meant, but he just didn't say it. This made him feel like he was playing around, which greatly satisfied the sense of accomplishment in his heart.
"We, Iwagakure, used our ninjas to attack Konohagakure. Why should we allocate the benefits we obtained to you?" Onoki said unhappily. He was already using the best state he could control to talk. After all, what happened here really made him uncomfortable.
"I understand."
After hearing this, Aoba nodded without hesitation. His smile gradually changed from a deep meaning to a cold one.
"Then the benefits that we, Sunagakure, obtained were also won by our Sunagakure's ninjas. What does it have to do with you, Iwagakure? Why should we distribute it to you?"
Aoba imitated Onoki's words again.
In fact.
He didn't have to do this.
It was not a reasonable choice to start a conflict with Onoki.
However.
He just felt that the pattern of this person was not good enough.
What he said.
What he did.
If he was really the Third Kazekage...
He should be angry.
As an Oscar-winning actor, he had already entered the role the moment he changed, and his understanding of the character was very high.
"The reason why you, Sunagakure, can launch a sneak attack on Konohagakure is because of the situation that we, Iwagakure, have contributed. If not for our ninjas who attracted such a large amount of firepower from Konohagakure, would you have succeeded?" Onoki argued strongly. Other things were easy to deal with, but things like benefits could not be given away.
"Hahahahaha..."
When Aoba heard Onoki's words, he immediately laughed, as if he had heard a super funny joke. He laughed and shook his head.
"Is it that funny?" Onoki frowned. He could no longer remember how many times the other party had laughed at him like this. He felt that this was a humiliation to him.
"Yes."
Aoba nodded, still smiling.
"Onoki."
"I don't know what to say."
"You are too naive."
"You are so naive that you haven't seen the current situation clearly."
"Then let me tell you!"
When Aoba said this, his tone paused. He didn't finish his words but gave Onoki some space to calm down.
"Do you think that we, Sunagakure, are using your power to attack Konohagakure?"
"Have you ever thought about just relying only on you, Iwagakure..."
"Is it really possible to defeat Konohagakure?"
"Just the Uchiha clan, you already can't deal with it, let alone other ninjas!"
Aoba words were a bit unpleasant, but they were the truth. After all, he was a person who had transmigrated. In the Third Ninja World War, Iwagakure had the advantage in the beginning, but later, they gradually collapsed in the hands of the Fourth Hokage, Minato.
At that time, Iwagakure was not defeated. Instead, they negotiated and Hiruzen even gave compensation.
But if they really wanted to fight head-on, it would be impossible.
Iwagakure might not be a match for Konohagakure.
"You... you... you..."
Onoki pointed at Aoba. The veins on his forehead were bulging and his blood pressure was high. In fact, he had never attacked Konohagakure wantonly because he was afraid of the Uchiha clan.
For this clan.
Onoki had a natural sense of rejection and fear in his heart.
Because of what happened in the past.
Now, as long as he saw the Sharingan, he would think of Uchiha Madara, the one who played him.
Even if Madara was dead now.
He didn't dare to attack Konohagakure too deeply.
He was afraid that the Uchiha clan would send out another proud son of heaven, and fiercely press Iwagakure to the ground.
This wave of Aoba.
It was like opening a scar.
"So..."
"Onoki."
"Think about it."
"We, Sunagakure, ambushed Konohagakure."
"Then win the war."
"Who is the more critical and important part?"
"Who is it..."
"Are we relying on the other party?"
Aoba's successive questions almost made Onoki limp.
"This... This... This..." Onoki didn't know what to say. He felt something was wrong, but his brain didn't turn around. He didn't understand where the wrong part was.
"If I say this and you still don't know who is more important..." Aoba deliberately dragged his voice out, attracting Onoki's attention. After that, he said, "Then I will change the perspective!"
"What I mean is..."
"If."
"I won't cooperate with you anymore."
"I will help Konohagakure sneak attack your Iwagakure."
"What do you think?"
"Will Hiruzen be grateful enough to offer me a generous gift of thanks?"
