Sowing Discord

There was no doubt that Tsunade would come for me. This was a 100% win-rate bet. Now since I was going to create chaos both to Kiri and Suna side, I need someone to frame. Tsunade was acting on her own after leaving the Konoha, so she was perfect for my scapegoat.

I summoned Eagles for the morning, afternoon, and night check-up on Kiri Shinobi, Missing-nin (Jukan), and Suna shinobi. Also to see if Tsunade had reached near the village or not.

One day after I beat up Jukan (Missing-nin), eagles on the afternoon shift check reported me about Tsunade's whereabout. It seems she tried to hide as soon as she saw eagles, but unluckily for her, Shizune wasn't fast enough and seen by dozens of eagles.

Trying to be sneaky but failed miserably, as usual of Tsunade. According to the eagle, she should arrive at the village in 5 hours of walking. I decided it's was it was time to get started.

I went to where Jukan was and told me what to do. He was extremely reluctant to do, but he had no choice as I threatened him with the seal I put on.

"Genji-san, can I follow you to Iwagakure after doing this? Honestly, I feel not safe anymore now that Suna dispatched more than 50 shinobi to hunt me down."

"Of course. I can make you Iwa citizenship, and you can live there without any fear of danger. So just do as I say now."

I was kind of curious why Suna sent so many shinobi to hunt down this weakling. He only had an ordinary Jounin prowess level. Barely passable as A-rank shinobi.

Turns out, he has a unique ability to erase his presence from any sensors, which made him an expert spy. He worked as a spy and gathered considerable info about other villages, including Suna village.

Now, this was until some stupid cliche drama kicked in and leading to his current escape. He fell in love with the random girl in Kumogakure!!!!! He wanted to quit his shinobi life and live quietly with her.

Very unprofessional, I had to say. Not only that, he even returned to Sunagakure to announce to them that he would end shinobi's life!!!

What a dumbass.

Suna obviously didn't allow this and decided to erase his memory in secret. Somehow this idiot managed to get this intel and ran away.

'I feel sorry for the girl fell in love with this idiot. But what irritates me the most is that even this idiot can get girl, but why can I??????"

[A/N: Because I am not letting you anytime sooner, bitch!!]

After telling him what to do, I took some of his blood and drew summoning inscriptions on empty scrolls, so I can summon him anytime.

Before I head to Cat Mountain village, I ordered Yahiko and the other two to never run around. For some reason, I feel like Yahiko will cause trouble when I am gone.

---------------

I reached the mouth of the village and stopped by the same Suna Chunin captain and its small platoon, who stopped me last time.

"Who goes there?"

"Hey, it's you guys. Now that makes things much easier. Can you let me enter the village?"

"Yesterday, you entered, no? Why did you come back again?"

"Yesterday, I went out to exterminate bandits. Since I finished them off just now, I have come to notify the village head and receive mission rewards. So just let me pass like you did last time."

Suna shinobi still hesitated. They didn't know what to do. Just like last time, awkward silence enveloped us. I felt like we might drag this until the next day morning, so I suggested them.

"Hey, since you are not so sure, why not you lead me to your leader, Pakura? I will convince her, alright?"

Suna shinobi captain thought for a moment and agreed to my idea.

"Alright, 10 of you stay here and keep patrol. Genji-san, follow us. If I see you trying any weird movements, then we will sound the alarm."

"Sure, sure."

We walked inside the village to find Pakura. But she wasn't in her tent, so we had to go around the village and ask where she was.

When we found her, I saw she was greeting a few people on the street. They were Mei and her 3 bodyguards!!

"Thanks for letting us stay here, Pakura-san. Tomorrow we will leave early. Here is a small gift from us."

"Ah, thank you for the gift, Tsuko-san. I was just doing my job."

Pakura thanked Mei and took the gift. I was a bit shocked by her shameless.

'Usually, won't people pretend to refuse first and then take? But this Suna girl just took it right away. Besides doing her job, my ass. This is not even Suna territory, and she is forcibly managing it.'

"By the way, since we are leaving tomorrow, can I have my bodyguards' weapons back?" Mei asked.

"For that matter, I am sorry that I can't. Since you are staying here for another night, I can't let you have it until the time you leave." Pakura answered while maintaining her smile.

'Wow, even despite receiving the gift, Pakura refused the request.'

Before their conversation end, I decided to butt in.

"Oh, hello there, Tsuko-san. I see that you are here, as expected."

"Genji-san?"

Mei sounds surprised, but I knew she is faking it. She already knew I was heading to this village.

"Genji?? What? Why are you here, Genji? Tatsu, why are you with him?" Pakura asked with a bit of anger.

Suna shinobi Captain (Tatsu) then whispered the situation to Pakura. Pakura looked at me with doubt.

"Come on, pakura. I am just gonna report to Village head and rest here for 2 or 3 hours and will go back. Don't look at me like that. My heart can not bear a sharp look from a beautiful lady."

"Hmph, suit yourself. But if you do anything funny, you know the consequences."

"Yes, mam. By the way, Tsuko-san? Where are the rest of your bodyguards? If I remember correctly, there were around 12 or 13 bodyguards? Why are there only 3 now?"

I casually asked Mei, which caused everyone to tensed up. Exact Reactions I wanted. I pretended to ask casually, but of course, it was clearly meant to sow discord between Pakura and Mei.

"Ahahaha... Well, along the way, we encountered fierce bandits. Although they didn't manage to harm my resources, 10 of my bodyguards lost their life.

What about your students, Genji-san? Why are you all alone?"

Mei clearly panicked but managed to spew some bullshit. Impressive, but it seems she forgot about my mission.

"Well, since there are Suna shinobi everywhere, I can't just throw my dear students to danger, can I? So I hide them in the mountain. I am really sorry for your loss. Tsuko-san, you should have accepted my accompanying offer at that time. Did you give your bodyguard proper burial because I didn't see any bodies along the way?"

Seeing I keep leading to the tricky conversation, the bodyguard behind Mei showed her face and changed the subject.

"Ahh, you bastard! How come you still have your dual swords inside the village while ours were confiscated?"

I was a bit stunned that this deep-voiced girl was Ameyuri Ringo. I didn't expect to be her.

"Well, unlike you, I have some sort of connection with this Suna lady here. Also, unlike you guys' ordinary weapons, my weapons are unique."

I knew the reason why Pakura didn't confiscate mine. She just didn't want me to create a large-scale battle commotion and let her target escape whilst.

'So Ringo's weapons are confiscated by Suna. System, which sword of seven swords of Mist does Ringo hold?'

System: "It's dual swords called Kiba. The swords have been imbued with lightning, granting enhanced cutting power in a manner similar to the high-frequency vibrations of lightning-based chakra flow. It is this capability that has resulted in these 'Kiba' being claimed as the sharpest swords in existence."

"Alright, ladies. I am tired of finishing the mission, so I will head to the village head first. Pakura, I am sure you don't mind me staying for a while, right?"

I thought it was enough for sowing the discord. I asked Pakura, and she didn't answer. She was very focused on Mei and her bodyguards. I just took it as yes and walk away silently.

'Kiba, huh? Why don't I gift it to Yahiko for his next birthday?'

------------------

I arrived at the village head house and told the village head that all bandits are dead. I took out the bandit leader's corpse head as proof.

"Now, hand me the mission reward. Also, put a good review in the mission log."

"Yes, yes, Genji-san. Well, how about the driving away Sun..."

I covered the village head's mouth quickly, telling him to be quiet. I was sure there were still Suna spies followed me here. This old idiot saying such a thing without checking around.

I immediately used a sound seal.

"There are Suna shinobi around here, trying to eavesdrop on us. Always look around. As for your other request, I can drive away all Suna shinobi from here within tomorrow morning. But I don't want your sack of charka metal ore."

"Then, what do you want, Genji-san?"

"Here is what I want.... ..... ..... (*Whispering*)"

After listening to my condition, the old man in front of me hesitated. But I didn't give him time to think. He had no choice from the start but accept me.

"You better decide to hurry up. Either Suna takes all from you or takes 10% and lets Iwa protects your village from anyone. Not only that, you can reopen numerous mines you closed previously, which increases your output."

'Of course, in truth, Iwa won't take all 90%. Since Kiri also knows, Iwa just had to negotiate with them and probably let them have 20 or 30%. I will just leave that to Onoki.'

In the end, he accepted the condition. I think I give him a pretty good deal, to be honest. I put the seal on the village head on the neck and threatened him that it would kill him if he betrays me or involve another village.

Although it was just an empty seal that I bluffed, it was enough to put fear in him. Next, I told him what he should do to drive away Suna shinobi.

'Alright, time to destroy Kiri and Suna shinobi!!!'
