The next day!
When Uchiha Shin woke up, Yugito was still fast asleep.
Seeing the tear stains on her face, one could tell she had been dealt with harshly yesterday.
Smack!!!
Uchiha Shin slapped Yugito on the butt, startling her awake.
She looked at Uchiha Shin with a terrified expression.
"Don't you dare!!!"
"Why can't I?"
Uchiha Shin looked at Yugito mockingly.
"Yesterday, you already bullied me for seven or eight hours. Isn't that enough??"
Recalling what had happened last night, Yugito couldn't help but tremble.
It was too terrifying. So barbaric, so crude.
The slightest resistance was met with an even harsher, doubled-down response.
"Whether it's enough or not is for me to decide. You are just a prisoner, you don't even have human rights. On what grounds can you refuse me!"
Uchiha Shin sneered and continued to deal with Yugito.
Tsunade was at least a person from Konoha.
When Uchiha Shin dealt with Tsunade, although he was not polite, he still held back to some extent.
Now, dealing with Yugito, he held nothing back.
He dealt with her however he wanted, tortured her however he wanted, as long as he could wear down the pride in her heart, leave an indelible psychological shadow in her mind, and make her instinctively fear and obey him.
His goal would be achieved.
As for the process, he didn't care at all.
Time passed, and it was soon noon.
At this time, someone came to remind Uchiha Shin that the negotiator from Kumogakure had arrived.
Only then did Uchiha Shin let go of Yugito.
"I'm saved!!"
Yugito watched Uchiha Shin leave, let out a long sigh of relief, and then fainted directly.
"Please, someone, take me away!"
This was Yugito's last thought before she fainted.
After Uchiha Shin left the room, he did not go to see the Kumogakure delegation immediately, but went to the dining hall to have a hearty lunch.
"Who from Kumogakure has come?"
Uchiha Shin asked Inaho, who was standing beside him, while eating his sumptuous lunch.
"It's Dodai, with two middle-aged Jonin. I don't know those two!"
Inaho replied.
"If you don't know them, they're not important. A mere Dodai is not qualified to talk to me! As the Vice-Captain of the Anbu, you are fully qualified to represent Konoha in these negotiations."
"Inaho, the rest of the negotiations are up to you!"
Uchiha Shin said.
"Me??"
Inaho was slightly taken aback.
"Yes, you!!"
Uchiha Shin nodded.
"I understand!!"
Inaho nodded.
Since it was a task given to her by Uchiha Shin, she naturally couldn't let him down.
"Very good!!!"
Then, Uchiha Shin gave Uchiha Inaho some more instructions and sent her off!
...
In the hall of a noble's mansion, which had now been converted into a negotiation hall for Konoha and Kumogakure.
As the negotiators from both sides took their seats, Kumogakure was the first to question: "Why isn't the Fifth Hokage personally present for today's negotiations!"
"What's your status? Are you worthy of negotiating with our Lord Fifth?"
Uchiha Inaho sneered.
"You!!!"
The Kumogakure ninja was furious.
"What about me?"
Uchiha Inaho snorted coldly.
"Then who are you? In what capacity are you here to negotiate with our Kumogakure?"
At this time, Dodai glanced at Uchiha Inaho and asked in a deep voice.
"Uchiha Inaho, Vice-Captain of the Anbu!! I am here to represent Konoha in these negotiations with your Kumogakure."
Inaho revealed her identity.
If it were before, she naturally wouldn't have revealed her identity to these people.
However, after Uchiha Shin said it didn't matter, she didn't care either!
A member of the Uchiha clan? And the Vice-Captain of the Anbu?!!
Dodai gave Uchiha Inaho a deep look.
"You are qualified to represent Konoha in negotiations with us!"
Dodai said.
"Since you have no more questions, let the negotiations begin!!"
Saying this, Uchiha Inaho threw two documents in front of Dodai.
"You want to ransom the body of the Fourth Raikage, you can."
"These are our conditions."
"As long as you agree to the conditions above, we will immediately return the body of the Fourth Raikage!!"
Dodai glanced at Uchiha Inaho, and without rushing to speak, he picked up the documents and read them carefully.
Upon reading them, Dodai's face immediately darkened!
The conditions on the document were not many, just three!
But each one was not lenient.
For example, the first condition: Kumogakure must return all the wealth plundered from the Land of Fire, a total of thirty billion!
The second condition: In addition to the plundered wealth, Kumogakure also killed a large number of noble lords and civilians, and needs to pay ten billion to Konoha, which Konoha will forward to the families of the victims to help them through their difficulties.
The third condition: The three ninjutsu "Lightning Release Chakra Mode," "Strongest Lightning Release Armor," and "Hell Stab" must be paid as compensation.
"Impossible! Your Konoha's conditions are too harsh!!"
Dodai shouted in anger.
"You don't want the body of your Fourth Raikage back??"
Uchiha Inaho said in a deep voice.
"We naturally want to ransom the body of Lord Fourth, but we will absolutely not be extorted by you. For this point, I believe Lord Fourth's spirit in heaven will also understand!!"
Dodai said in a deep voice.
"As the saying goes, 'ask for an exorbitant price, and haggle down to a reasonable one.' If you think the conditions are too harsh, you can bargain!"
Uchiha Inaho said.
"We can return the wealth plundered from the Land of Fire, but the wealth we seized is definitely not thirty billion."
"Thirty billion is too exaggerated!"
"That wealth is at most three hundred million!!"
"In addition, for the dead lords and civilians, we can only say sorry, but we can at most pay another ten million. We don't have any more! As for the last condition!"
"Whether it's the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, the Strongest Lightning Release Armor, or the Hell Stab, they are all our Kumogakure's strongest secret techniques. We will absolutely not hand them over, no matter what."
"So, you'd better give up that idea!"
Dodai said.
"It seems you have no sincerity in these negotiations."
Uchiha Inaho sneered.
"We have no sincerity? Or are you asking for too much?"
"Don't you have any idea in your hearts!"
"If it were the living Lord Fourth, we might have gritted our teeth and agreed."
"Now, Lord Fourth is already dead, and you still want to use his body to extort so many benefits from us Kumogakure."
"You are too greedy!"
Dodai couldn't help but shout.
"Hmph, who told you to invade our Land of Fire? This is the consequence of you starting the war!"
Uchiha Inaho snorted coldly.
"You're called Dodai, right!! You probably don't know, but our Konoha has a forbidden jutsu called the Reanimation Jutsu."
"What cannot be achieved through negotiations, we have ways to get back from your Fourth Raikage!"
"Your Konoha is going too far!"
Dodai's face changed drastically.
Reanimation Jutsu?
Before, he might not have known what kind of forbidden jutsu it was.
But after the Battle of Sunset Valley, when Orochimaru reanimated the First and Second Hokage, he knew what kind of forbidden jutsu it was.
"No matter how far we go, we can't compare to you, directly invading other countries, burning, killing, and plundering," Uchiha Inaho sneered.
