"Old man..."
"You are also the first one... who has been able to make me fight like this."
Enma stood beside Hiruzen Sarutobi, staring vigilantly at Yang Jiu, but his eyes also held shock.
From Ninjutsu bombardment to close-quarters combat, and then to the Five Release Combo—
It was actually still a draw.
Yang Jiu licked his lips, looking at his scorched fur, then at the equally disheveled Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Still want to fight?"
"No more fighting."
"Let's talk!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head.
He had already experienced Yang Jiu's strength, and he knew clearly that he alone could not possibly take it down.
As long as the opponent didn't want to fight, given its speed, it could leave at any time.
Combined with an attack power comparable to a Tailed Beast, if he kept fighting, the only one who would be in trouble was him.
"Fine."
Yang Jiu smiled.
"What conditions do you want to release Kakashi and the others?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone was serious and direct.
To him, as long as he paid some supplies to get back Kakashi and that group of Ninja—this deal was not a loss.
Yang Jiu did not answer immediately.
He narrowed his eyes, pondered for a few seconds, and then slowly spoke:
"First—"
A glint flashed in his golden pupils.
"I need Wolf Ninja Village to establish diplomatic relations with Konoha."
Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned for a moment.
"Wolf Ninja Village?"
He looked at the silver-white giant wolf in front of him with some surprise.
In that gaze, there was surprise, scrutiny, and a trace of... disbelief.
Yang Jiu's lips curled slightly.
"That's right."
His voice was calm and composed.
"The Ninja village that I established."
