Chapter 620 Ceding Territory
Chapter 620 Ceding Territory
There were still some of Luo Sha's subordinates in the room. Upon learning that the other side wanted to arrest Luo Sha's children, they also tried to secretly pass on the message.
Unfortunately, before they could make a move, they were firmly restrained by the alert Sand Village ninjas and unable to move.
After all, the Fourth Hokage has already made concessions. If you don't behave yourself, you'll be ungrateful.
Luo Sha's subordinates' faces instantly stiffened, but they were helpless in the face of this situation and could only watch as the others filed out.
It should be noted that, strictly speaking, the land of the Land of Wind nominally belongs to the Daimyo.
However, Sunagakure is the only military force group in the Land of Wind.
Since even Sunagakure has chosen to compromise and back down, even if the Daimyo of the Land of Wind himself were here, he would have no choice but to accept it with a bitter pill to swallow.
While Ebizo was writing that humiliating treaty that ceded territory, Rasa secretly hid in a house not far from the Kazekage Building.
This house is not only in a superb location, but it is also surrounded by a network of roads and narrow, winding alleyways.
More importantly, several hidden tunnels were meticulously constructed inside the house.
It can be said that if anyone from Konoha wanted to cause him trouble, he could use these convenient passages to quickly escape the scene.
He knew that even if Konoha wanted him, the village most likely wouldn't hand him over.
Although he remained somewhat vigilant, Luo Sha did not appear overly tense overall.
In fact, he still harbors some curiosity about the current situation.
He was eager to know what kind of demanding conditions Minato would propose this time that he had come in person.
Although he had planted his trusted spies in the conference room, he couldn't allow them to come and go as they pleased.
Therefore, it will take some time before we can obtain accurate and detailed information in a timely manner.
But instead of receiving news from the conference room, the patient Luo Sha received a message from his home first.
Maki rushed over and reported to Rosa:
"Lord Rasa, Temari and Kankuro have been captured!"
Upon hearing this news, Luo Sha sprang from his seat as if electrocuted, his eyes wide with rage, and roared:
"hateful!"
"Who did this?!"
Machid reported:
"They were people from the village. They took Temari and Kankuro directly to the meeting room."
Upon hearing this, Luo Sha's face instantly turned extremely gloomy, as if water could drip from it.
He slowly sat back down in his chair, pondering to himself:
Are these people trying to force me to show myself? Hmph, what a pipe dream!
It should be noted that Luo Sha has always been a profit-driven person.
One can get a glimpse of this from his past cold-hearted treatment of Gaara.
He didn't care about family ties at all.
Moreover, his two children—Temari and Kankuro—while possessing some talent, were by no means exceptional geniuses.
Now that he's been brought into the conference room, it's absolutely impossible for him to risk his life to rescue him.
Thinking of this, Luo Sha waved his hand expressionlessly at Ma Ji and said coldly:
"I understand. You can go now. Continue to closely monitor the situation in the conference room and report any unusual activity to me immediately."
However, Machi, who came to deliver the message, was stunned on the spot.
He never expected that Luo Sha would remain so calm and indifferent in the face of such a major event as the kidnapping of his own children.
Although he had served Luo Sha for many years, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly at this moment.
Maki said nothing, simply bowed and withdrew.
……
Sand Hidden Conference Room.
Minato sat quietly in the head seat, his gaze fixed on the two teenagers who had been brought in.
Their faces were youthful, clearly indicating that they had only recently graduated from the Ninja Academy and were merely inexperienced genin.
Before leaving, Chiyo specifically instructed that all of Gaara's relatives be brought back with him.
Minato thought to himself that, apart from Rasa, the two children in front of him and Karura's remains should all meet the requirements.
So he specifically ordered that the two children, who were not quite grown up, be brought here.
Temari and Kankuro looked extremely disheveled at this moment, as they were bound tightly with their hands and feet tied up.
With rags stuffed in its mouth, it could only make muffled sobs, its eyes filled with extreme terror and confusion.
They had no idea what had happened or why they had been arrested.
Neither of them knew about Rasa's resignation as the Fourth Kazekage.
Minato gave Sasori a wink, and Sasori's long, slender fingers twitched slightly.
Temari and Kankuro were frozen in place like puppets, unable to move an inch.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Ebizo drafted a surrender treaty that ceded territory.
This treaty details a series of important provisions, including the demarcation of new border lines.
After taking the treaty and carefully examining it, Minato confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it and signed his name without hesitation.
Ebizo's eyes revealed endless sorrow as he slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping across the entire conference room.
Those high-ranking officials of Sunagakure who were usually aloof and imposing were now all bowing their heads, not daring to meet Ebizo's gaze.
Because they knew in their hearts that once they signed this treaty, they would become the eternal sinners of Sunagakure and a disgrace to the Land of Wind.
Just then, Ye Cang felt a surge of anger rush to her head. She suddenly stood up, wanting to rush forward regardless of everything.
However, Elder Fuji, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly, grabbed Yekura's arm tightly, and pulled her back forcefully.
Elder Fuji lowered his voice and said:
"Don't be impulsive! We mustn't let Elder Ebizo's painstaking efforts go to waste!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cang's chest heaved violently, and he gasped for breath.
She turned to look at Ebizo, who gently shook his head at her, signaling her not to act rashly.
Ye Cang felt a sharp pain in his heart, his face filled with agony, and in the end, he had no choice but to take a step back.
At this moment, Yecang was filled with resentment; she hated the aggressive behavior of Konoha Village.
He hated Rasa's weakness and incompetence, and hated himself even more for not being strong enough to change everything.
Meanwhile, Ebizo calmly picked up a pen and solemnly signed his name on the humiliating and ceding treaty that symbolized territorial concessions.
"Alright, now that the treaty has been signed, we won't linger any longer."
Minato waved his hand behind him expressionlessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the people standing behind him quickly sprang into action, holding hands and forming a close-knit group.
Of course, the thoughtful Minami didn't forget to reach out and hold Temari and Kankuro's hands.
Immediately afterwards, Minato placed his hand on it and instantly used the Flying Thunder God Technique on everyone, leaving together.
