"Ninjas from the Land of Cherry Blossoms visiting relatives in the Land of Water? Aren't you from the Land of Cherry Blossoms? Why are you visiting relatives in the Land of Water?" the woman asked, a little confused.
"Actually, we weren't originally from the Land of Cherry Blossoms, but were born in the Land of Water. After all, Cherry Blossom Village in the Land of Cherry Blossoms has taken in quite a few wandering ninjas these past few years, and we are among them. However, we still have relatives living in the Land of Water," Su said with a smile.
"Is that so? You two are truly formidable. From the Land of Cherry Blossoms to the Land of Water is a very long journey. You might encounter quite a few bandits along the way," the woman said faintly.
"Sister, you're a ninja too, aren't you? From your appearance, you don't seem like an ordinary person," Haku said with a smile. Hearing Haku's words, the woman was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Mm, that's right, I am a ninja from Rain Village. My name is Konan. I'm here today to buy some food for my companion. What about you two? You haven't introduced yourselves yet."
"My name is Haku, and he's Su. We're both Chunin from Cherry Blossom Village," Haku said with a smile. She did not reveal Su's surname, because she knew Su was a "big star" in the ninja world. Revealing his name might cause some trouble.
"Is that so?" Konan smiled, but a hint of keenness flashed in her eyes. She secretly thought to herself: "Indeed, Uchiha Madara? He actually came to the Land of Rain. If I hadn't seen his portrait, I really wouldn't have recognized him. That guy was right, this person is abnormally powerful."
"But what is he doing in the Land of Water? His only relative, Uchiha Obito, died many years ago. Visiting relatives is clearly a lie. It seems he must have some other objective," Konan secretly thought to herself.
"Sister Konan, I heard Rain Village is very strictly managed. Whether entering or leaving, is it really okay for you, Sister Konan, to come out of Rain Village to buy food?" Haku recalled the strange glances from passersby earlier and asked Konan with some concern.
Konan was startled by Haku's words, then a faint smile appeared on her face as she said, "It's fine. Many ninjas in Rain Village know me, and everyone in Rain Village has a special identity certificate.
It's very difficult for outsiders to mix into the village, so as long as you pass the inspection, there's no problem. Although the ninjas' duty is to protect the village and the country, they also need to live, you know." Konan said with a smile.
As they spoke, the three also began to eat. Konan's eating etiquette was very elegant, exuding a noble aura. The three of them chatted as they ate.
However, although they were chatting, it was generally Konan who asked questions, and Haku who answered. Haku would tell Konan anything that wasn't too top-secret, while Su ate and listened casually.
"This woman is a bit strange. She seems very interested in our affairs. Generally, strangers meeting for the first time don't ask these kinds of questions. Does this woman have some kind of objective? Haku is truly naive, she doesn't seem to have much caution," Su secretly thought to himself.
"Sister Konan," Haku said with a hint of curiosity, "Although it might be a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask why the people here looked so strange when we first arrived in the Land of Rain and mentioned Hanzo, the leader of Rain Village. Did something happen?"
Upon hearing Haku's words, Konan's expression suddenly changed, flashing a hint of unnaturalness, but she quickly regained her composure. However, this hint of unnaturalness was clearly captured by Su.
"It seems my guess was correct. Something unknown has indeed happened in this country," Su secretly thought to himself.
Konan fell silent for a moment, then whispered, "Actually, Hanzo is very unpopular."
"Ah, I'm sorry, I asked something I shouldn't have. Truly sorry," Haku said, startled by Konan's expression, then quickly apologized.
"It's nothing. This is no secret in the Land of Rain. Due to the previous Great Ninja Wars, Rain Village became the main battlefield for those great nations. The Land of Rain also suffered from the invasion of war, and the entire country became dilapidated.
The great nations gained enormous profits and wealth through war, while the small country of Rain could only keep weeping. This is true for both the country and its common people. Everyone hopes for the arrival of true peace, and my companions and I have been fighting for this all along," Konan said, a hint of sadness flashing across her face.
"And Hanzo, as the leader, is already corrupt. To maintain his rule, he does not allow any change in this country, even extinguishing many hopes of this country. This is probably why people dislike him," Konan said faintly.
"So that's how it is," Haku nodded. "Wars of great nations? Those guys are a bunch of incurable bloodsuckers." Su said, his voice faint and unreadable.
Hearing Su speak, both Haku and Konan were startled. There was no hint of unnaturalness on Su's face, and he said, "If you want true peace, there's only one way: break the monopoly of the great nations. To put it bluntly, it's to overthrow the Five Great Nations. Weren't all the previous Great Ninja Wars initiated by them?"
Hearing Su's words, Haku looked at him with surprise, while Konan's eyes flashed with a hint of shock and keenness. However, she still said to Su, "You can't just casually say such things. If others hear you, it could cause trouble. But I'm still very interested in how you think the great nations' dominance can be broken." A hint of interest flashed across her face.
"Heh heh, you're right. Actually, the method is very simple. As long as one possesses power strong enough to contend with the Five Great Nations and even defeat them, there are two methods I believe are feasible," Su said with a smile.
