Chapter 234: Kazekage Ninja- - 23: Dropping the Pants to Scare the Widow
"Lord Kazekage, you’ve been quite busy lately, haven’t you?"
Danzo Shimura’s voice carried a sinister undertone, his expression resembling that of a wronged housewife.
"Ah, what can I say? The village has been keeping me on my toes. So many things to deal with, and some troublemakers just love stirring the pot. It’s exhausting, truly exhausting."
Jing Hang chuckled, his words deliberately ambiguous. Whether Danzo caught the underlying meaning or not was entirely up to him.
Danzo cleared his throat and continued, "I heard that the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Sand Village have grown quite close recently. Even the Third Raikage himself visited your village, didn’t he?"
"Yes, that’s true," Jing Hang replied without any attempt at concealment.
"Such a significant event, and yet no word was sent to the Hidden Leaf Village?"
"Why would we need to inform the Hidden Leaf?" Jing Hang asked, feigning confusion, though his tone carried a hint of displeasure.
Danzo, seemingly oblivious to Jing Hang’s irritation, pressed on. "Recently, the Hidden Cloud and the Hidden Leaf have had some unpleasant encounters along the northern borders. Actions like this could easily lead to misunderstandings, and such misunderstandings are not something the Hidden Leaf is keen to see."
Hmph! "Misunderstandings"? What a joke. What was this—dropping your pants to scare a widow? Jing Hang had seen it all before.
"Oh? Has the Hidden Leaf declared war on the Hidden Cloud?" Jing Hang asked with mock curiosity.
