2011, March 11.

Because of unprecedented huge tsunami, miraculously there's only one pine tree left out of 70,000 pine trees in Rikuzentakata city.
While revival of disaster couldn't go as planned, “Tengu of hi no moto” appeared.

He's holding a scroll in his hand.

When Tengu went to toilet, I looked inside of the scroll.

There were instructions for revival and solution for Northern Territories dispute.

With shale gas coming out of America, oil producing countries like Russia will take damage.

Russia is providing gas to Europe and gas is Russia's one of the biggest strategic assets.

On the other hand, gas demand decreased in Europe, because of financial problems of countries like Greece.

Now, Russia has to think about where to sell his gas.

Russia softened her attitude to Japan, because Japan is the biggest gas consumer in the world.

What this mean is “now is the best time”!

By negotiating with Russia, we can turn back Northern Territories.

Let me remind you, this is what was written in Tengu's scroll, I am only the messenger.
