Chapter 476: A Wise Lord Bends to the Times
After defeating the Kiri Ninja, the Akatsuki army swiftly entered the Land of Hot Water.
Before they could travel far, the Daimyō of the Land of Hot Water appeared, blocking their path with a few trembling ministers and soldiers.
"I am the Daimyō of the Land of Hot Water. I request an audience with Lord Akatsukikage."
The Daimyō lowered himself completely, showing not even a hint of arrogance, even when addressing an ordinary Akatsuki ninja.
"Daimyō?"
"Wait here. I'll go report."
The Akatsuki ninja speaking to him frowned before tossing out those words and turning away. He made his way to the back of the formation, where Yahiko and the others were casually chatting, and relayed the Daimyō's request.
"Well-informed, isn't he?" Yahiko had a pretty good idea of what the man was here for.
"Good, saves us the trouble of going to him."
Nagato had little interest in these matters, but that didn't mean he didn't understand them.
"Go on, find us a good place to settle," Konan urged, giving Yahiko a push from behind.
