Kaito had no aversion to meeting the daimyo, the leader of the Land of Water.
Although the daimyo actually does not have much say in the selection of the Mizukage, after all, the other party is the biggest financial backer of the Kirigakure Village, and it would not be good to not even meet him.
In fact, after getting in-depth exposure to the political affairs of the Kirigakure Village.
Kaito also had a general understanding of the relationship between the Land of Water and the Kirigakure Village.
In fact, there is no real subordination between the two. The Kirigakure Village is more like a country within a country, and the relationship between it and the Land of Water is mostly an employment relationship.
Kaito himself had no intention of changing this relationship. All he wanted now was to develop the Kirigakure Village and become a qualified Mizukage. Everything else could be left to nature.
The next day, Kaito and Elder Genji set out for the Daimyo Prefecture with several jonin guards.
Perhaps it was because the daimyo only managed the ordinary people's livelihood and economy of the Land of Water and had sufficient energy to develop commerce.
The current capital of the Land of Water is obviously much more prosperous and advanced than the Kirigakure Village.
"Is this your first time in the Water Capital?"
Elder Genji looked at the busy street and said with a smile to Kaito who was standing beside him.
"Well, previous missions were mostly conducted in the eastern part of the Land of Water, but prosperous cities like this are not uncommon."
Feeling the prosperity here, although it is far from the big cities in the previous life, it can still be seen that the mental outlook of ordinary people living here is much better than elsewhere.
"After the city of Land of Whirlpool is built, it should be very prosperous, and some appropriate changes can be made in the village."
If conditions permit, Kaito also hopes to make the lives of ordinary people in the Kirigakure Village more comfortable.
Although the location and environment of the Kirigakure Village are not good, there is actually no shortage of outsiders because there are many merchants going to the Kirigakure Village to issue tasks.
As long as they can make some use of this part of the population, it will be easy for the Kirigakure Village to grow and develop.
Elder Genji also agreed with this, but after all, the two of them were just expressing their feelings and did not continue to communicate more on this matter.
Not long after, the two arrived at the daimyo's mansion.
Originally, Kaito thought that if he wanted to meet the daimyo, he might have to go through some weapons inspection, or have a few snobbish servants come to remind everyone of etiquette and so on.
After all, noble families with a long tradition like this seem to attach great importance to these face-saving things.
However, in reality, none of this is the case.
After the group simply informed each other, a special person came out and said that the daimyo was not currently handling official business and could meet.
He led the way in front and led everyone inside.
But then Kaito realized that he was wrong.
The Land of Water and the Land of Fire are slightly different.
There is neither a powerful temple like the Fire Temple that can rival a ninja, nor a person like Asuma Sarutobi who acts like a child and runs to be a bodyguard for the daimyo.
Walking into the mansion and looking around, he saw that most of the daimyo's guards were ordinary warriors.
The few ninjas there were were probably just wandering ninjas of mid- to low-level ninja strength recruited by the daimyo himself.
With such defensive strength, it would be too complicated to go through a set of procedures every time they meet these ninjas.
If someone ever becomes unhappy and wants to take down Daimyo, these people may not be able to stop them.
‘From this perspective, the daimyo seems to be in a very miserable situation.’
Kaito began to feel a little sorry for each other.
Ordinary people living in this extraordinary world, no matter how much power and money they have, still have to worry about losing their lives one day.
‘Forget it. It's better to pity the common people than to pity the daimyo.’
While he was daydreaming, Kaito and others had already arrived at the reception room of the daimyo's mansion under the guidance of the waiter.
There were quite a few people in the reception room at this time.
In addition to the daimyo who wore a headdress that looked like an unfolded folding fan, there were also several old men dressed in black and wearing tall hats dressed as officials.
These people must have been arguing about something before, and the scene looked a bit chaotic.
It was not until Kaito and others came in that they immediately stopped talking and turned to look at the door.
The messenger who was leading the way was also a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that the daimyo and officials, who were so dignified when they came to report just now, would start arguing in just a few minutes.
Noticing that the situation was a little tricky, the experienced Elder Genji immediately spoke up to break the awkward atmosphere.
"Your Excellency the Daimyo seems to be discussing something important here. Do you want me and others to step aside for a while?"
As one of the oldest ninjas in the Kirigakure Village, he has been a high-ranking official in the village since its establishment. Elder Genji has dealt with the daimyo more than once.
On the way, Kaito even learned that when the previous daimyo was in office, Elder Genji had a lot of communication with him.
There is naturally no stage fright at this moment.
The daimyo on the opposite side didn't seem to care much about such a scene.
He simply straightened his collar in a formal manner, motioned for several officials to return to their seats, and then began to speak.
"It's nothing serious. Elder Genji, please take a seat."
Upon hearing this, Elder Genji did not take a seat immediately. Instead, he slightly leaned to the side, led Kaito to the front, and introduced him.
"Your Excellency, this is the village jonin mentioned in the previous letter, Mirukawa Kaito. He is also the only candidate for the future Fourth Mizukage of our Kirigakure Village."
However, after Elder Genji finished speaking, he did not wait for Kaito to say hello.
The Daimyo of the Land of Water on the opposite side seemed a little impatient and simply waved his hand.
"Sit down first and talk."
As soon as these words were spoken, the four Land of Water officials immediately showed anxious looks on their faces, as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.
Kaito and Elder Genji looked at each other unconsciously.
"Is the Daimyo of the Land of Water going to cause trouble?"
The original selection of the Mizukage of the Kirigakure Village actually had nothing to do with the Daimyo and was usually just a formality.
The purpose of today's meeting is not to get the approval of Daimyo.
The meeting was held to enable better cooperation between the Land of Water and the Kirigakure Village in the future.
Moreover, this time, because the Land of Water had defeated Konoha's troops before, it had gained a lot of advantages in the negotiations. In the previous contacts with the daimyo, the other party also praised the performance of the Kirigakure Village on the battlefield this time.
Even the fact that Kaito would succeed the Fourth Mizukage was conveyed to the Daimyo Prefecture by the elder Genji after the Third Hokage's death was announced.
The other party also agrees with this.
As a result, with this attitude now, it seems that things have taken a new turn?
