Konoha's Trench Jie Ninja

After leaving Danzo, Kaede Ye appeared in the third generation's office not long after.

"What's wrong Feng Ye?"

"Sarutobi-sensei, Danzo came to me today and asked me to go to his department."

"Go to his department..." Sarutobi shook his head: "No need, I have other plans for you."

As his most promising successor, what Sarutobi currently wants to do is to train Feng Ye on the one hand, and brush up his data on the other.

Although Sarutobi is very fair, he is not a rigid person. Under reasonable circumstances, he helps Kaede Ye build a perfect resume so that he can succeed Hokage in the future. This is what he wants to see happen, and Danzo's roots , which is naturally difficult to do.

"That's not the point." Fengye's expression became full of worry: "The point is, Sarutobi-sensei, don't you think the power you gave Danzo is too great?"

"It can supervise everyone in the village, be responsible for reconnaissance and destruction of countries outside the village, have its own independent troops, and should even have independent financial resources and talent training bases. And if we really talk about it in detail, I feel that the functions may be more than just that. , just like a little Hokage, Sarutobi-sensei, don’t you think this power is too much?”

Even if Fengye doesn't know much about politics, he at least understands generally that the intelligence department cannot be in the hands of one person internally and externally, and must at least be separated to check and balance each other. In addition, the intelligence department should not be too strong. Even if there is an army, it should not have its own financial resources and completely independent personnel.

What the Third Generation is doing now is completely equivalent to creating a little Hokage out of hand. Danzo's power is so great, from Konoha's internal affairs to the disputes between enemy countries, there is nothing that Danzo cannot intervene in, and with Danzo's power and The power is so great that no one can check and balance Danzo. The only person who can check and balance is the third generation himself. Fengye doesn't know what to do with the third generation's behavior of splitting his one power into two separate powers. said.

Regarding other foreign policies, Fengye could still say that the conservative forces in the village were too strong, and the three generations had to compromise in order to maintain the stability of the village. But the current act of cutting off one's own arms was a sign of pure political incompetence.

When Sarutobi heard this, he seemed unaware of the danger contained in it, and just smiled softly.

"If it were someone else, I would naturally be worried, but he is Danzo, and I believe him."

"It's not a question of whether you believe it or not..."

Fengye looked at the third generation helplessly. Of course he understood the third generation's feelings for Danzo, just like the relationship between Fengye and Jiraiya Orochimaru. At the critical moment, he would not doubt that they were willing to sacrifice their lives for him. This was They have a friendship and bond from childhood to adulthood, but whether they are willing to sacrifice their lives for you is completely different from whether they have selfish motives in politics to hold you back.

If Maple Night were to be Hokage, even if power was given to Orochimaru Jiraiya, there would be no checks and balances and supervision at all. This is not just a matter of trust.

Fengye looked at Sandai in confusion, not knowing how to explain this to him.

He had only heard of superiors who killed or removed their subordinates from power because they had gained the strength to shake their own position, even though they knew they were loyal. How could he have imagined that someone would take the initiative to give up power to his subordinates? He has the power to threaten his superiors.

In Fengye's view, Sarutobi's move was not only

It is harming himself and Danzo.

Although the original Danzo also wanted to be Hokage, fundamentally, he didn't have much chance.

Although he is also a disciple of the second generation, the third generation is the orthodox successor of the second generation. The power left by the second generation, even if the third generation dies and is left to his disciples in the future, it will not be his turn at all. Without the support of powerful forces, considering His strength is not obviously superior to his peers like Sarutobi Kage and others, and there are issues such as age. Originally, Danzo himself had no chance of becoming Hokage, and naturally he would not have such great ambition to become Hokage.

But the reality now is that the third generation personally gave Danzo such a huge force, making him one person inferior to ten thousand people, and only one step away from the position of Hokage.

Fengye could even imagine Danzo's feeling of being just a little bit out of reach for a long time.

Don't be afraid of a big difference, just be afraid of a little difference. This kind of torture can completely drive people crazy. In Fengye's view, Danzo's final appearance was entirely caused by the third generation.

Compared with Danzo's suffering, Konoha was actually the one who suffered the most. If a faction was suddenly divided, even if Danzo didn't want to cause trouble, would his subordinates be completely fine and not cause friction with others? , won’t public affairs be abandoned for private purposes? It will easily lead to unnecessary internal friction.

Besides, Danzo himself is definitely not as perfect as the third generation said. In the future, it could be as big as provoking trouble abroad and provoking Nagato's revenge, or as small as threatening the head of a big clan internally and forcing Aburame Shimi to send his only son to the root, in the middle. Disobeying the Third Generation's orders to secretly snatch Shisui's eyes and attack Uchiha in advance, there is nothing he can't do. Even if it is relatively fine now, it will eventually turn into a cancer.

However, in the face of all the worries shown by Feng Ye, Sandai always said a simple "I believe in him".

"Don't worry so much, Fengye. Danzo's loyalty to the village is trustworthy. Danzo will definitely do better than me in these dark matters..."

"Then there should be at least some supervision or balance, and the power of financial and personnel appointment should be given to..."

"No need, I believe him."

Fengye: "..."

In fact, Fengye knew early on that Sandai was unlikely to be persuaded by him. Although Sandai was indecisive, as long as something was decided, it must be carefully considered and difficult to waver. This has been the case many years ago.

"Ugh"

Sighing silently, Fengye reluctantly left Sarutobi's office.

From Fengye's point of view, Konoha, the ninja village, is a bit deformed. Other ninja villages are either a group of lions led by a sheep, or a group of sheep led by a lion, while Konoha is... a group of sheep. A flock of sheep led by sheep...

Although Konoha's strength is far superior to other countries, it is always passively beaten. At the end of each war, due to the superiority of the education system and the economic advantages of the Fire Country, Konoha can always return to its peak early and has a long period of absolute Time for supremacy.

But Konoha has never taken advantage of the opportunity to weaken other ninja villages when it has recovered and has not yet recovered. It also does not have the toughness that the greatest ninja village should have. It always sits back and watches other ninja villages slowly return to their peak. Or Xiao Ninja Village will grow up and then use its peak state to attack itself.

Such a non-aggressive Ninja Village made Fengye feel more and more uncomfortable.
