Chapter 282: Compensation? No need to compensate, because you Kumogakure are already

a vassal of the Pirate Group!

"How come the elites of the village haven't come back yet? Are those pirates really that hard to deal with?" A group of Genin from Kumogakure Village gathered together, looking at the only road leading to Kumogakure Village, trying to see the elite ninjas of the village return.

Kumogakure Village is located at the top of a high mountain, where it is shrouded in clouds all year round, looking down, you can't see clearly what happened below.

They could only vaguely hear that the noise in the distance seemed to have stopped, there was not as much noise as at the beginning, the battle seemed to have ended, but they didn't know who won and who lost.

But they all instinctively believed that Kumogakure Village won.

After all, their elite ninjas from Kumogakure Village collectively mobilized, thousands of people to fight the pirates.

And how many people can a pirate group have?

At most a few hundred, right?

If there are fewer people, maybe only a few dozen, right?

Could it be that thousands of people dealing with so few pirates, still lost?

How could that be possible!

Even in dreams, it wouldn't be so outrageous!

But what shocked them incredibly was that they waited for an afternoon and didn't see anyone come back.

Time passed for a night, and when it came to the morning of the next day, a group of Genin guarding the gate of Kumogakure Village finally saw someone appear in front of them.

"They're here! I see people!" A Genin from Kumogakure Village excitedly shouted: "Our village's ninjas are back! They must have defeated the pi... ra..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the rest of his words were all stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a word.

This shouting Genin from Kumogakure Village was already dumbfounded.

Because in his line of sight, the figure he saw in front of him became bigger and bigger as it got closer to Kumogakure Village.

Although the figure of the other party was shrouded in the clouds at the top of the high mountain, he could vaguely see that this person was as tall as a giant.

Bang! Bang! Bang... The sound of some unknown hard object constantly hitting the ground fell into the ears of every Kumogakure Genin.

An invisible tension began to spread among the crowd, a bad premonition began to emerge, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

As the mysterious person in the cloud got closer and closer to the gate of Kumogakure Village, they also saw the figures of many smaller people gradually appearing.

The first to tear through the thick fog was a huge Naginata.

Then, the figure of Whitebeard appeared in front of every Kumogakure Genin.

It was also at this time that a group of Genin guarding the gate of Kumogakure Village realized that the ones who came back were not the ninjas of their village, but pirates!

"It's Whitebeard! It's Whitebeard!" Someone couldn't help but exclaim: "I've seen Whitebeard's bounty poster, this person's appearance and height are exactly the same as Whitebeard!"

"Whitebeard? What? How could he be here? Aren't the elite ninjas of our village already intercepting the Whitebeard Pirates? Didn't they stop them? How is this possible!"

"There are people behind Whitebeard! That is... those are also Whitebeard's children! How come it's a group of pirates?"

"Wait! I... I think I see Raikage-sama, Raikage-sama... seems to be tied up by chains!"

"And there's Yugito-sama! And Killer Bee-sama!"

"..."

Incredulous exclamations and uproars were endless. They were originally waiting for the elite ninjas of their village to return, but what they waited for was the Whitebeard Pirates!

Such a psychological gap left them all stunned and confused.

They completely didn't understand what was going on.

Whitebeard's disdainful gaze swept over Kumogakure Village in front of him, ignoring a group of Kumogakure Genin in front, and fell on the mountain peak building behind: "Gurararararaa! This ninja village is quite large! It's very suitable to become the fourth main base of the Whitebeard Pirates in the ninja world!"

Whitebeard's hearty laughter echoed through the sky, even dispersing many clouds.

The first main base is naturally Konohagakure Village, the second main base is Kusagakure Village, and the third main place is Kirigakure Village.

This fourth main base... undoubtedly is the nearby Kumogakure Village!

When the morning mist gradually dissipated, the people of Kumogakure Village realized that behind the Whitebeard Pirates were their elite ninjas.

However, their village's elite ninjas looked unusually dispirited.

Each of the elite ninjas of Kumogakure Village lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at their own village, as if their whole spirit had been drained in an instant.

Among them, there were many wounded, and some people were carrying motionless bodies.

Looking around, it was like a defeated army that dared not face the elders and children in the village.

Whitebeard ordered his bunch of silly children: "You guys! Stick the pirate flag of the Whitebeard Pirates all over Kumogakure Village, don't miss a corner! From today on, this ninja village is our Whitebeard Pirates' territory!"

"Alright, Pops." Kisame grinned after hearing this: "But, we have to find the tailors of Kumogakure Village to make a large number of pirate flags overnight, so we can fill the whole village."

Naruto rubbed his hands and chuckled: "Or should we just take the Raikage office building of Kumogakure Village as our temporary base? Then hang the biggest pirate flag on the Raikage building!"

Defeating the thousands of troops of Kumogakure Village, and then hanging pirate flags all over Kumogakure Village, this is simply killing with a borrowed knife.

But does Kumogakure Village have a way?

There is no way at all!

The village's top few forces... are still captives of the Whitebeard Pirates, and have not been released by the Whitebeard Pirates.

The human sea tactic also had no effect on the Whitebeard Pirates.

In this situation, what else could they do besides watching helplessly?

Even... to prevent the Whitebeard Pirates from causing trouble in the village, they might have to cooperate with them to hang the pirate flag!

Thinking of this, many of the higher-ups in Kumogakure Village felt like hanging themselves.

But when they really wanted to hang themselves, they suddenly felt... it was quite good to be alive.

After all, it was the Fourth Raikage-sama who first announced the surrender, and it didn't have much to do with these higher-ups of Kumogakure Village, right?

They have tried their best to stop Whitebeard, and if they can't stop him, there's nothing they can do, right?

When some things have become a foregone conclusion, even some muscle brutes will have a flexible moral bottom line.

After all, being a muscle brute doesn't mean you don't have a brain.

...

No one deliberately concealed such a piece of news, and no one had the ability to conceal it.

The news that Kumogakure Village was defeated by the Whitebeard Pirates swept through the entire Kumogakure Village in less than half a day, making everyone in Kumogakure Village aware of it.

Everyone in Kumogakure Village, from nearly a hundred-year-old elders to children who just started to remember things, felt that all this was so ridiculous.

Yesterday, their Kumogakure Village was still one of the top ninja villages in the ninja world.

In their eyes, their Kumogakure had the potential to surpass Konohagakure in terms of military, economy, and people's livelihood.

But just one day later, how did the thriving Kumogakure Village suddenly fall into the abyss?

When they saw various towering buildings in Kumogakure Village being hung with a pirate flag, the ninjas and civilians of Kumogakure Village were all at a loss. 

And some foreign businessmen doing business in Kumogakure Village also had a bewildered expression on their faces.

They couldn't understand at all... why when they woke up, the sky of Kumogakure Village had changed.

"This information must be sent back to the village." Naturally, there are spies from other ninja villages lurking in a large ninja village like Kumogakure Village. A spy from Sunagakure Village was filled with horror and shock.

He felt that this was an incredible piece of information that must be sent to the village as soon as possible.

He looked left and right, found that no one cared about him, and immediately wanted to leave Kumogakure Village.

But he didn't notice that his figure was being watched by a woman with a cold face.

Konan didn't know when she had also mixed into Kumogakure Village, her gaze moved away from the spy from Sunagakure Village, and then she raised her head and looked at the pirate flag hanging above.

Konan murmured to herself: "I'm afraid it won't be long before the entire ninja world knows what happened to Kumogakure Village."

"So…" Konan began to think: "How should I approach the Whitebeard Pirates? How should I gain Whitebeard's trust? How should I infiltrate the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Although Konan was shocked by what happened in Kumogakure Village, it did not hinder her plan to infiltrate the Whitebeard Pirates.

On the contrary, it made Konan more determined in her idea that she must infiltrate the Whitebeard Pirates and find out the secrets and intelligence of the pirate group!

Because the Whitebeard Pirates, who easily defeated a ninja village, are already the biggest enemy of the Akatsuki organization.

Even, from this moment, Konan wondered if the Akatsuki organization was not a match for the Whitebeard Pirates.

If the Akatsuki organization were to deal with Kumogakure Village, without any plan, and go head-to-head with Kumogakure Village.

Even if Kumogakure Village didn't have two Jinchuriki and a Raikage, it would be impossible to take down Kumogakure Village in such a short time.

But Whitebeard did it.

...

On the other side.

The Whitebeard Pirates and others have already arrived at the Raikage office building of Kumogakure Village, which is the power center of Kumogakure Village.

Unfortunately, it has now been blatantly stepped into by pirates.

"You won. Kumogakure Village will provide Two billion ryo, and then give it to you." The Fourth Raikage A is still tied up by chains, he said this sentence with a somewhat gray expression.

"Gurararararara! Little brat, do you think that the moment you prepared to go to war with the Whitebeard Pirates, what Kumogakure Village owes the Whitebeard Pirates... is only two billion ryo?" Whitebeard's hearty laughter gave A a bad premonition.

A hurriedly raised his head and looked at Whitebeard in front of him: "What do you mean? Isn't two billion enough? Damn it! Do you want more money? Don't be too greedy! Pirate!"

"Ha, Raikage-sama." Kisame interjected: "Your entire village, has been filled with our pirate flags, what do you think we want to do? Are you playing dumb in front of us, or do you really not see the situation?"

The Fourth Raikage fell silent.

Kisame continued: "The moment Kumogakure Village went to war with us, it means that the end of Kumogakure Village... can only become the same as Kirigakure Village, becoming a vassal of the Whitebeard Pirates!"

Kisame grinned: "In other words, to put it bluntly, Kumogakure Village is already the private property of the Whitebeard Pirates, this is the price that the defeated need to pay!"

"..."

...

As time passed day by day, Kumogakure Village, which was stunned by the Whitebeard Pirates, could no longer manage any news blockade.

Plus the actions of various spies lurking in Kumogakure Village, the news of Kumogakure Village being invaded spread everywhere.

The first to know this news was actually the Akatsuki organization, after all, Konan of the Akatsuki organization had infiltrated Kumogakure Village.

"What is the Whitebeard Pirates... planning?"

Nagato held a secret letter passed back by Konan in his hand, a pair of eyes flashed with a few points of heavy vigilance.

He felt that the invasion of Kumogakure Village by the Whitebeard Pirates was not an accident, nor a coincidence, but a carefully arranged plan by Whitebeard.

After all, how can you defeat a ninja village without making a plan in advance?

Moreover, the Whitebeard Pirates, a notorious large organization, they can't just do whatever they think of, can they?

They must have an ulterior motive!

"What is their purpose... what kind of power do they have, that they can defeat multiple ninja villages in succession?" Nagato took a deep breath, he felt a pressure.

Nagato who possesses the Rinnegan, is temporarily unwilling to turn against the major ninja villages like the Whitebeard Pirates.

Not to mention invading other ninja villages openly and uprightly.

But the Whitebeard Pirates dare to do so.

If the Akatsuki organization allows the Whitebeard Pirates to act recklessly, wouldn't all the Tailed Beasts in the ninja world be snatched by Whitebeard first?

"...I hope that after Konan infiltrates the Whitebeard Pirates, she can get a lot of information about the pirates."

Nagato clenched the secret letter in his hand.

It's enough to see that he is not calm inside.

...

On the other side of the ninja world.

Sunagakure Village.

The Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure Village, "Rasa", is a bit skeptical about the authenticity of a piece of information he received.

"The Whitebeard Pirates defeated Kumogakure Village and made Kumogakure Village a vassal ninja village..." Rasa looked at Ebizo in front of him and asked with a frown, "How high do you think the authenticity of this information is?"

Ebizo coughed, and answered in an old voice, "At least there is a 60% chance that it is true. Wasn't it rumored in the ninja world some time ago that the Raikage of Kumogakure Village was captured by Whitebeard?"

Ebizo solemnly reminded, "Kazekage-sama, the power of the Whitebeard Pirates is getting stronger and stronger, and they are targeting one ninja village after another. Sunagakure Village is hard to be alone."

"If, one day, the Whitebeard Pirates come to our Sunagakure Village, with our power..."

Rasa clenched his teeth and interrupted, "Damn it! Our Sunagakure is not the coward like Kumogakure and Kirigakure!"

That's what he said harshly.

But to tell the truth, Rasa's heart is still like being pressed by a huge rock.

Such a powerful Whitebeard Pirates.

It makes everyone breathless.
