Crossover Anime: Plundering the Heavens and Building a Dimensional Empire

"Pretty much. You can make the decision, but there are some things I suggest you do as instructed." Bai Mu first glanced at Esdeath as a warning, then spoke to Tsunade.

Do as instructed?

That means you can't make the decisions.

Tsunade understood immediately upon hearing this. Doing so meant she had no control over her own life and was simply following orders.

"That's what we did."

She complained somewhat helplessly.

"Do you have your own opinions? The problem is your opinions are useless," Esdeath said sarcastically.

Can your Tsunade's insights be compared to White Maki's? It's not that I look down on you, but after comparison, everyone knows that White Maki's approach is the best.

You are too kind!

Being soft-hearted is really a no-no.

"I'm not going to talk to you, Bai Mu. Am I going to take charge personally, or are you going to let the Security Department handle it?" Tsunade was too lazy to pay attention to Esdeath and decided to clarify things with Bai Mu instead.

So how exactly do we do it?

Should I take the lead and deploy the Anbu, or will the Security Department take over? Also, what will happen to the Daimyo? They said they'd replace him, but what was the reason?

We can't just change it without any explanation, can we?

I just staged a coup and became the Fourth Hokage, and then there was a change of Daimyo. Anyone who isn't an idiot would know there's something wrong with that, right?

“The Security Department and the Dark Division will be working together. Esdeath should be in charge; she needs to have something to do.” Bai Mu pointed at Esdeath and said meaningfully.

These words made Tsunade's heart skip a beat, and she immediately realized that something was wrong. Her gaze then fell on Esdeath.

The latter smiled, a smile that was hard to describe.

Thinking about how the other party was bloodthirsty...

It's really hard to say about such a cruel personality. If Tsunade isn't worried, then there's no way she wouldn't be concerned. She must be worried about it.

“That’s right, I need to have something to do.” Esdeath said with a smile, agreeing wholeheartedly and eagerly hoping to have something to do.

Alice Lise is working, and I can't be without work, otherwise I'd be inferior to her.

Such a situation is definitely unacceptable, and I strongly oppose it.

Therefore, I must be involved, and as the commander.

I will be in charge of this operation, understand?

Tsunade:"……"

I think it's outrageous.

At the same time, I feel very tired.

There was no way to object; there was no way to fight them. Bai Mu's request was impossible to refuse, and Esdeath was a crazy woman. Besides, he needed the strength of both of them, so he was caught in a dilemma and had no choice but to comply.

"Alright, but I hope you can keep her in check." Although she couldn't object, Tsunade still hoped Esdeath wouldn't go too far. She should at least give me, the Hokage, some face, shouldn't she?

"Don't worry, she won't do anything reckless," Bai Mu said casually.

Your worrying about this is completely pointless.

I'm certain that this won't happen. Esdeath is sensible and knows how to act. You don't need to worry about anything too unpleasant happening.

There will definitely be dead people, but it won't be too gory.

"Alright, what about the Daimyo? How do we proceed?" Tsunade was more concerned about the Daimyo's situation now. The ninjas plotting trouble in the village were easy to deal with, but how would you proceed with replacing the Daimyo?

Bai Mu smiled and said casually, "Konoha isn't without rogue ninjas. I remember you had an old classmate back in the Ninja Academy, right? What was his name again..."

"You mean Hiruko?" Upon hearing this, Tsunade was taken aback at first, then understood and blurted out.

Chapter 116 The Will of Fire, it's really useful!

Beiliuhu!

A former Jonin of Konohagakure in the Land of Fire, he later became a rogue ninja and his current whereabouts are unknown.

During his time at the Ninja Academy, he was a classmate of Tsunade, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and others, so he was an acquaintance. However, Tsunade did not expect that Hakubaki would mention this old friend.

"What do you mean by 'he'?"

Tsunade took a deep breath and asked in a low voice.

"Do you even need to ask this question? As soon as Bai Mu said it, I knew what was going on. What's the simplest way to change a daimyo? Of course, it's when the current daimyo is gone. And how is he gone? Naturally, by being killed."

Seeing this, Esdeath spoke first, mainly to mock Tsunade, otherwise she wouldn't have done so.

Tsunade:"……"

I find this outrageous.

That being said, is it even possible to do that?

She had to look at Bai Mu and ask, "Bai Mu, don't scare me. Do you really want to do this? Bei Liu Hu is missing now, and it's not good to frame him."

"It doesn't matter, just arrange for someone to kill them. That's how the transformation technique is used, and it has to be done in a big way." Bai Mu shrugged and said calmly.

It doesn't matter, I'll do it however I want.

Tsunade still had many questions. After thinking for a moment, she continued to ask new questions, "It feels a bit rough. What if the person in question doesn't acknowledge it?"

Bai Mu waved his hand and replied casually, "Who cares what a rogue ninja says?"

Who would believe what a rogue ninja says?

Remember, Hiruko was a rogue ninja.

He was still a rogue ninja from Konoha.

It's perfectly reasonable to kill the Daimyo of the Land of Fire because of hatred for Konoha, isn't it?

Tsunade:"……"

Can you refute that?

She found she couldn't refute it.

What they said makes sense.

It has to be said, you really can't refute this point.

"So, according to what you said, who should be assigned to do this?" Tsunade thought for a moment, knowing that she couldn't change Hakubaki's plan, so she simply gave up and didn't care, but she still had to ask.

"Anyone is fine, but Esdeath and Alice don't need to go. I will arrange for suitable people to go. It will be a matter of a few days at the latest, not too long."

Bai Mu said that this will definitely be arranged as soon as possible, but the relevant personnel need to be kept confidential, so he will not disclose them for the time being.

"So, in that case, we're dealing with the people in the village now?" Tsunade asked, inquiring about the village's affairs. "Aren't there still a group of Konoha's conspirators?"

"Yes, it needs to be dealt with."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mu nodded in response.

However, at that moment, Uchiha Mina arrived at Hakubaki's house.

"Lord Bai Mu, a group of villagers have gathered outside the Hokage Building, clamoring for the Fourth Hokage to step down and threatening to severely punish the Security Department."

After she came in, the first thing she said was the most important news.

"The scoundrels of Konoha..."

Bai Mu sneered disdainfully and said in a cold tone.

He already knew that this was probably the routine, and there was nothing else besides these methods, but these troublemakers were clearly not enough to make Bai Mu have any reason to be lenient.

It's time to strike hard!

A bunch of brainless idiots, easily fooled, come out and court disaster.

Since you insist on courting death, then so be it and I'll send you to your deaths!

Upon hearing this, Tsunade frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "How come villagers are involved? Were they instigated by those people?"

“It’s obvious.” Esdeath shrugged and said calmly, unsurprised. This was usually the method used, but it was generally ineffective.

"Wait, don't do anything reckless."

Upon hearing Esdeath's tone, Tsunade immediately realized something was wrong and quickly spoke up to stop her. She couldn't allow Esdeath to go on a killing spree.

"How could I do something reckless?"

Although Tsunade was anxious, Esdeath didn't think she was being reckless, so she asked in return.

"We can't kill them indiscriminately. They're villagers, just a group of ordinary people," Tsunade emphasized upon hearing this.

I know you're domineering, and I can understand some of your tough methods, but obviously this approach doesn't work here, do you know that?

I'll say it again: you can't use ninja methods on ordinary people; just drive them away and that's it.

Esdeath said coldly, "Ordinary people? These ordinary people are something else. Now they're being incited to cause trouble. Will they storm the Hokage Building next?"

Are you telling me all this?

Haha, the problem is that it doesn't work.

I'll say it again: follow Bai Mu's will.

Before Tsunade could speak, she turned to Bai Mu and asked, "Bai Mu, you tell me, is it time to strike hard?"

"Mina, who instigated these villagers?" Bai Mu did not answer Esdeath's question, but instead asked Uchiha Mina which forces had joined forces to cause the villagers' sudden riot.

Mina Uchiha glanced at Tsunade before replying, "There's the Hyuga clan, and a few other mid-tier ninja clans. They're all die-hards who used to belong to the Hokage's faction, and they all lean towards clans like Sarutobi."

"So loyal?"

Bai Mu sneered and said, "The Will of Fire is really useful."

"Uh, cough cough, I'm still here, can you give me some face?" Tsunade felt really awkward when she heard this, so she quickly coughed and reminded Bai Mu to be careful and at least give her some face.

"face?"

Esdeath scoffed, "What's the point of saving face? The thing we should be doing now is dealing with these people."

Do you still care about saving face?
