The Heyday of Bad Guys

Yugito opened his eyes tiredly.

Ninjas tended to be in good health and energetic due to their constant exercise. As long as she wasn't asked to approve papers, there was no problem with chopping people up for days and nights on end.

But Yugito was really tired right now - because Makoto had appeared in front of the Vespers as a whole.

Granted, in reality, Makoto had been exposed months ago, but those who saw him were basically Yugito's true inner circle.

Over the past two years, these beloved ones had followed Yugito in his bad luck. But undeniably, this continuous torture had also made them more and more mature.

When they came across an enemy's door, they were no longer thinking about how they should directly kill the other party, but what they could gain from them.

Family was family, and business was business.

True, it was mean, but that's how adults were.

Like a brave man, great and honorable, to beat all the bad guys, so as to save the world... is ultimately just a delusion.

But being known by Yugito and his inner circle is ultimately a different thing than being directly exposed to the Viziers.

Makoto's reputation in Kumo is really...

Makoto and dog could not enter the house, but it was far more than just Mount Myoboku.

But Yugito knew that the two would have to meet sooner or later.

She had more or less expected it in her heart.

It was just that when the two sides actually met...

It was more than bad, it was simply bad.

"What a nightmare."

Yugito rubbed her brow and sighed as she sat up.

When she got up, Makoto was already sitting up with his jacket on, holding the Nibi clone.

Nowadays, the weather was getting colder and colder, and like all cats and kittens, the two-tailed doppelganger didn't want to get out of bed, and she curled her entire body all the way into Makoto's arms, snoring happily.

After all, it was a biju, even if it was just a clone, a layer of light flames was also wrapped around the Nibi's body.

But Makoto didn't care, as he watched the TV, humming verses in a strange tone under his breath.

"The stream firewood fire is soft and the savage felt is warm, I don't go out with the civet slaves..."

Cold rain outside the window, Makoto's tone is certainly odd, but it is also appropriate... Obviously, he is a guy with amazing talent, why is his character so dangling?

If his character is a little bit normal, there won't be so many people who just see him and want to beat him up....

Makoto has an extremely bad reputation, and Yugito thought he was a complete asshole at first. But after living with him for a few months, Yugito then really realized that the gap between the guy's actual and outside reputation was extremely huge.

-The fact that he froze and never laid a hand on her after the two of them slept under the same roof for months more or less tells you something.

He was actually more disciplined than most.

Though he acted like he was completely ignoring all the rules.

"Hey, what are you looking at, so happy."

Yugito sat down on her knees beside Makoto in her pajamas. She took the Nibi clone from Makoto's arms and pressed the constantly meowing kitten back into her body.

"It's nothing... Look, yesterday's problem was solved."

Makoto's current face was very comical, as if he had been beaten up by dozens of people on the ground, becoming a real pig's head, even bigger than the whole before.

His current appearance was really both ridiculous and cute at the same time.

Yugito wouldn't be able to sympathize with this guy though - because in yesterday's real-life PK, he had sent all of the Reformer ninjas to the hospital all by himself.

Through her constant research on Makoto had probably figured out that Makoto had a second stage.

He was far more powerful in the golden eye state than he was in the black eye.

It was almost like a heavenly god descending to earth, ignoring everything and directly crushing.

The black eye state was relatively much weaker, but... that was only for the golden eye.

As far as the current Kumo was concerned, there was still no one who could defeat this guy.

In yesterday's battle, as Yugito had known for a long time, the Reform ninjas just had an advantage of being outnumbered. The battle didn't go on for long before Makoto gained a complete advantage.

Even the fact that he was still maintaining his piggyback look was completely just a joke. If someone who was good at medical ninjutsu was willing to fix it for him... that was all the damage Makoto had taken in the previous battle.

The difference was as huge as ever.

One can't even help but feel despair.

And... he is still getting stronger.

The two had been living together for a small few months, and Yugito could feel the aura that kept getting stronger.

Faced with this situation, the same as a few months ago, in addition to female ambush to beat up his son, she could not think of any way to reverse the defeat.

Favorably, he said everything, just do not mention this matter.

...She wasn't any uglier than Terumi Mei.

Yugito averted his gaze and looked at the television.

"Last night, the Land of Lightning Daimyo was attacked and suffered heavy losses. Although due to the example of the Daimyo of the Land of Water, the palace was heavily guarded, allowing the Daimyo to escape at the beginning of the battle. But there were still many people , even the daimyo's servant died in the battle... -

"According to the video footage taken back by several reporters who were close by, the person who did it was none other than the world's greatest evil, Pain. -

"These six thugs were dressed in suits, holding bats in their hands, destroying everything in their way... Fortunately, their main targets were nobles, so there were no civilian casualties. -

"Sources say that during the battle, it was because of a few civilians pointing the way that the nobles suffered such huge casualties..."

The host tried his best to use a steady tone to tell about the horrific events that happened last night, but there were simply too many people in the royal capital, and it was almost impossible to block out the relevant information... All the nobles could do was to block out the official caliber.

They did not dare to casually discuss the terrible things that happened yesterday, and even more so, they did not dare to discuss the propaganda books that kept landing along with the killings.

...From a certain perspective, the latter is even more terrifying than the former.

Although the Pain were strong, they weren't completely insurmountable after all. And those propaganda books that are sprinkled with the wind are breaking the roots of the nobles - Kaguya did indeed rule the earth, although that was many years ago, but when it comes to the thing called orthodoxy... In the era where the legacy of the Warring States still exists, the dilettantes really ate it up.

What's worse, if it's true as portrayed in the propaganda books, then the ninjas of the world should be one family.

It's not even a lie.

As the source of the ninja sect, if you look into it carefully, whether it's the master and disciple or the bloodline, you'll end up tracing it back to Sage of Six Paths...

The ninjas of the world really are one family.

No amount of bickering between Indra and Asura could change the fact that they were both pups of the Sage of Six Paths.

This information was fragmentary, but Yugito knew in his heart that all of this was just a way to prepare public opinion in advance of Makoto becoming a man of the world.

This was not the beginning, however the storm had already begun to brew.

As for when the storm will ravage the world... it only depends on when he takes care of Iwa.

Kumo already in fact no resistance power and will, also do not know how long the rock hidden can still die.

In terms of rationality, the establishment of a ninja-based Land of Ninja is the most favorable thing for everyone.

But years of grudges, but also related to the ancestors family business... is really difficult to give up ah.

Yugito's mood was a little complicated.

"Last night, thank you."

"No need to be polite, after all, they are all adult laborers, and the ninjutsu is exquisite, it is indeed a pity to really die like this."

"Even if you say that... I still have to thank you."

Yugito knew that it was Makoto Makoto who took the fall for himself yesterday.

The Kumo ninjas would never be able to accept something like the insurance money being taken away from them, and even the more moderate faction had the urge to kill hidden in their hearts.

After all, everyone really did have a cow.

Under these circumstances, it was extremely difficult for Yugito to make up his mind.

Now that the anger of the people had been born, whether one chose to be conservative or radical, the consequences would not be what Yugito wanted to see.

If he chose to be aggressive and heaven punish the Daimyo, then all the situation would fall towards the worst abyss.

If you choose to be conservative and ignore it for the time being, then everyone is bound to be disappointed in her... even those rationalists.

So at this time, Makoto jumped out.

Everyone was hospitalized by him, and the Kumo ninjas, while fearing his power, didn't have the heart to think about anything else.

And by the time they were discharged from the hospital... retainers were already dead, this kind of thing must be a private transaction, and the later ones did not know the key to it, so naturally they would not mention it again.

This is still only one aspect of the benefits.

Pain invaded again, and although the daimyo of the Land of Lightning was unharmed, the nobles still lost a lot.

Having been given a big forced fight head on, the panther manic Daimyo was bound to be furious. After he had vented, he would surely choose to continue to give additional budgets to Kumo.

At the same time, it would accelerate the pace of Yugito becoming the new Raikage.

Now it is no longer a question of Kumo's loyalty or disloyalty, but the hand of the Akatsuki organization has already taken advantage of Kumo's weakness and weakness to quietly reach into the Land of Lightning...

With several birds with one stone, Kumo's crisis had been completely lifted.

Of course, there will definitely be constant trouble in the future. After all, the daimyo has suffered such a big loss this time, and Pain is not a good match... Makoto can laugh and joke with Pain, but Yugito cannot.

But anyway, the pressure on her shoulders, has been much smaller.

All these benefits he hadn't asked for, she knew.

"Like I said, no thank you, after all, there are only 0 times and countless times for female costumes. Since the Kumo ninja have already started to complain about the Daimyo, it's only natural that they'll still dare next time."

"And I deliberately let Pain get the jump on them this time, so that the hostility in the Kumo ninja's chest didn't get out."

"This hatred will not disappear, instead it will continue to accumulate in their hearts, waiting for the next opportunity to explode... You have to be careful."

Is this the scheming of the world.

It's just that, it's just that, it was supposed to be at your mercy anyway.

Whatever.

"Tell me, what should we do next."

Yugito was feeling a little greedy, but these past two years had been really hard on Kumo.

Kumo was now out of the crisis, and it was only out of the crisis...

A few times before, no matter how harsh a request Yugito made, Makoto would easily fulfill it. Only this time...

"After repeated consideration, although the proposal outline is widely recognized, some principles are theoretically feasible in principle, and some aspects are too complex and require a delicate balance in practice. Therefore, in principle, a wise and prudent solution is to put the proposal into more detailed consideration, strengthen the continuity of the new proposal with the existing principles, and the principled debate on the principles, and the proposal is recommended for approval by the proposer in the proposal."

"...Speak human!"

"I want to go home."

Yugito opened her small mouth, revealing two small tiger teeth and making a super aggressive expression.

Makoto, as always, didn't speak human words, and his thinking was so jumpy that it made people's heads spin.

But after living with him for a few small months, Yugito had begun to familiarize herself with his way of speaking and had put together a strategy to get him to tell the truth.

Yugito's bare little foot stomped hard on his toe.

"Why are you stepping on my toes all of a sudden... Hey, are you an elementary school student!"

Caught off guard, Makoto also grimaced in pain.

"Then... expel 76 spies from the Land of Water?"

"So why expel the Land of Water diplomats? And where did 76 come from?"

"We can't expel the Land of Fire diplomats, can we?"

"Why don't you die twice!"

Yugito stormed off like that, but didn't have much intention of staying.

Makoto had the benefit of staying, and the benefit of leaving.

As long as he stayed here, then with his ability, there was almost no problem that he couldn't solve.

Kumo really needed such a strong and capable leader right now.

Yugito couldn't do it on her own.

She was still too far behind.

Yugito had always been proud, but being proud didn't mean being stupid and not seeing the gap between each other. She actually knew that she was a war ninja after all.

The war had left too deep and too much of a mark on her body, and it was very strenuous to fully adapt to this era.

And this era... belongs to Makoto.

But Yugito knew just as well that as long as he stayed here, then the Land of Lightning would never be at peace... Subjectively, Yugito knew that Makoto's behavior was very beneficial to the ninja as a large group. But objectively... he was ultimately hurting the Land of Lightning continuously...

Her feelings for him were really a mix of love and hate.

The kind where the favorability is 100 and the hatred is also 100.

She was grateful that he saved Kumo.

But she also hated him because he was the one who had gotten Kumo into this situation.

"Alright, alright, I'll leave later..."

Makoto waved his hand like this and left as noiselessly as he came.

He really left.

After confirming that he really left, Yugito was overjoyed.

For that, she even rewarded herself with an extra bowl of congee, as well as two pieces of candy - these candies were placed on the table by Makoto, and during yesterday's meeting, this faceless guy touched so many candies in his pocket.

Obviously with his wealth, he could afford to buy as much as he wanted.

After resting for a while, Yugito changed his clothes and went to the hospital to talk to the vizier ninjas one by one.

Makoto had hurt them badly, yet the prodding of his fists had more or less made these youngsters recognize some facts. It would be much easier now for Yugito to do the work again.

It consumed an entire day of her time.

By the time Yugito got home, it was twelve o'clock at night.

She opened the door as before, but didn't see Makoto, who had rolled himself into a spring roll.

"That guy's gone."

Yugito knocked her head, walked to the kitchen, and ordered herself a bowl of noodles.

"Suo Makoto, get your ass out here and eat your noodles."

However no one answered.

"Oh yeah, this guy's really gone..."

Yugito looked at the two bowls of noodles he had ordered and resolved to treat himself to finishing them both today.

After tossing everything, it was already like two or three o'clock. Yugito laid down and suddenly heard the sound of a little water coming from the kitchen.

...It seemed he had forgotten to tighten the faucet.

The cat with OCD couldn't stand this.

"Makoto, move and go put the faucet on..."

Yugito stopped herself before he could finish her sentence.

Makoto guy... really went away.

Back to that, the family with people who loved him.

In this snow cave like room, she was left alone again.
