Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja
Chapter 280: One person attacks with funds
The atmosphere in the conference room was not very warm, and many ninjas frowned. Peaceful days were hard-won, and they had just withdrawn from the battlefield less than a year ago. At this moment, they were unwilling to step into that bloody battlefield again.
For some ninjas, the New Deal or the Land of Whirlpools were all things that the Hokage, Hayama, did for his political achievements. They just wanted to stay in the village peacefully, receive subsidies, and share wealth and glory with their wives and children. As for what the outside world has become like, they actually don't care much.
Seeing that the peaceful days were about to be shattered, someone lost patience and stood up and said, "Countries should focus on exchanges and consultations. I implore the Hokage to think twice before acting. Konoha no longer has the energy to fight a protracted war!"
Ye Shan raised his eyebrows but said nothing. Hyuga Hiashi, who was sitting at the front, was overjoyed. He was just worrying about how to support the Hokage and show himself, when a kind-hearted person offered him a way out. He stood up immediately, his eyes widened, and he said with full energy, "Who said we don't have the energy to fight a war?"
"Under the leadership of the Fourth Hokage, the Konohagakure is thriving, and its strength has long surpassed that of the early days of the village by a hundred times! Whether in terms of military power, financial resources or overall strength, the Konohagakure is far superior to the Kirigakure. We can't afford a war, so how can those poor people who make a living in the sea afford it? On behalf of thousands of members of the Hyuga clan, I will resolutely and unconditionally obey any decision made by the Hokage!"
"Fight! We must fight. Let those guys from the Hidden Mist Village see what the power of a great country is like!"
Hyuga Hiashi's words were very beautiful. He learned a lesson and used his family's power to support Master Yeshan in time. Not to mention that Konoha Village had the strength to teach Kirigakure a lesson, even if there was no such condition, Master Hokage alone was enough to wipe out the other side. Hyuga Hiashi was not afraid of his own ninjas being cannon fodder at all.
Konohagakure is a collective of many ninja clans, and what they value is democracy and freedom. If the clan leaders disagree with sending troops to fight, Yeshan, the Hokage, will be helpless. After all, he can't just send some Genin to fight, right? But now, the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan have clearly expressed their views. The remaining Sarutobi clan, the Nara clan and other clans are all vested interests in the Land of Whirlpools, and naturally they will not oppose the war. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the development of the matter. With the Uchiha clan in his left hand and the Hyuga clan in his right hand, Yeshan really has the final say in Konohagakure!
Ye Shan was very satisfied with the current political environment. Whatever decision he made, he had a group of people supporting him. He was much better than the Third Hokage. His life was miserable at that time. The Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan ignored him. He had to rely on Shimura Danzo who was determined to overthrow him. How could he be as glorious as Ye Shan?
After unifying the main idea, all that was left was to discuss how to send troops to fight. Uchiha Keiji didn't need any hint from the Hokage, he just jumped out and got things done on his own. How thoughtful of him!
"The number of ninjas sent by the Hidden Mist Village is about 2,000. As the number one ninja village in the ninja world, we in Konoha naturally cannot be petty and make a fool of ourselves. My idea is 2,000 vs 2,000, a head-on confrontation between the two sides, which is fair and just."
He was just bullying. As everyone knows, since the establishment of Konohagakure, it has always fought with a small number of people against a large number of people. In a tense period, it even made a crazy move of 500 people against 2,000 people. If the 2,000 people of Kirigakure really met the 2,000 people of Konohagakure, they would not be crushed at the first touch, but it would definitely be a panic-stricken on-site simulation teaching.
"I agree!" Hyuga Hiashi was unwilling to fall behind, so he didn't even sit down, and loudly echoed, "One on one, what we value is fairness! As for how to send out the two thousand people, my Hyuga clan can send out three hundred elite ninjas and let the Hokage-sama take full command!"
My goodness, my goodness, you think you are giving a speech at a marketing conference? You are talking about 300 ninjas, all of them elite? You are probably sending your own grandfather to the battlefield, right?
"The Uchiha clan will also send out three hundred ninjas!"
Come on, let's just change the name of this Jonin Conference to a crosstalk show. You two just sang the same tune and settled the matter. What do we have to do? Just sit back and listen to the crosstalk.
Ye Shan couldn't help but curl up his lips. He liked these two people very much now, even more than he liked the girls in the hot spring that night. He wanted to give them a bear hug right there and then. But as a Hokage, he couldn't be too explicit and had to keep up appearances all the time.
"Nonsense!" Ye Shan pretended to be displeased and said, "War is not a joke. It concerns the honor, disgrace, rise and fall of a country and a ninja village! As important members of the village's decision-making level, you two should understand this principle even more."
As Ye Shan spoke, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, threw one to the two of them, and put it away instead of smoking one. His attitude could not be more obvious. How many people in the entire Konoha Village could have the Hokage personally hand them a cigarette?
"The food and fodder must be sent before the troops move. War is more of a test of national strength than a test of force. After the Ninja World War, all the wealth that the village had worked so hard to accumulate for more than half a year was gone. Now money is needed everywhere. What that person said just now makes sense. We can't afford it anyway."
"But others have come to our doorstep to bully us. If we continue to turn a blind eye, wouldn't it be a huge joke? So, we have to fight, but we have to be careful about the methods. Large-scale troop warfare is not advisable, and the village doesn't have the extra financial and material resources to support it. What I mean is to send out highly skilled ninjas to intimidate the Hidden Mist Village, and it would be best if we could achieve the effect of defeating the enemy without fighting."
The senior ninjas present breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it was not a large-scale battle, the meaning of Hokage was very clear, which was to avoid large-scale bloodshed as much as possible. It seemed that a new round of Ninja World War would not break out for the time being.
But when it comes to those with super strength, there are only a handful of them in the entire Konoha Village, and you can count them on your fingers. First of all, Orochimaru must not be counted. That guy is still in confinement and cannot come out without the order of the Hokage. Secondly, Jiraiya and Tsunade can also be excluded. They are both strong, but they probably won't obey orders. After all, singing the opposite tune is their main theme. Finally, Uchiha Fugaku is in the new Rain Country, mainly responsible for the implementation of the new policy, so he is directly excluded. So, the eyes of the jonin focused on the Hokage, they have already guessed the result.
As expected, Ye Shan smiled and said, "I have a long history with the Hidden Mist Village. I have dealt with them many times in the past. I think my own strength is acceptable. I will go there myself."
You are too polite. Your strength is not just good, but too good. In the entire ninja world, you are second, and no one dares to claim to be first.
Uchiha Keiji looked worried, and raised his objection amid the puzzled looks of the crowd: "Absolutely not!"
"Hokage-sama is a noble man, how can you easily put yourself in danger? If there is anything you want to do, just tell your subordinates to do it. You can rest assured to command the village. Good news will come soon."
Hinata Hiashi also said in time: "Vice-Hokage is right. The front line is dangerous, and the Hidden Mist Village will do anything to prevent it. The Hokage is responsible for the future of the Land of Fire and Konohagakure, so there is absolutely no reason for him to take risks himself. Otherwise, how can we, the ninjas, survive?"
The jonin also spoke out to dissuade him, even though they didn't want Ye Shan to just sit back and relax.
Ye Shan slowly stood up from his chair, and the chakra curled up in his body burst out wantonly, causing the sound in the conference room to suddenly stagnate. Everyone felt an unparalleled aura rushing out of his thin body, as if he was a god or Buddha, inviolable.
"I have three words: frugality, kindness, and not daring to be the first in the world. As the shadow of a village, advocating the use of force is reckless. I don't want to be a leader who starts a war lightly, and I don't want to destroy the hard-earned peace with my own hands. But there are always people who challenge my bottom line and try to amuse the world with their ignorance."
"What Vice Hokage Uchiha Keiji and Minister Hyuga Hiashi said makes a lot of sense. The purpose of war is to promote peace. Killing is not what a ninja pursues. You all tried to dissuade me from going to the battlefield because you were afraid that I would follow in the footsteps of Sarutobi Hiruzen. You were kind-hearted."
Ye Shan spoke slowly, and the aura he released became more and more powerful, causing the jonin to sweat profusely: "But you can open your eyes and take a good look at who I am! I am the Baiyun Ye Shan who killed two Kage-level ninjas in one battle! I am the Baiyun Ye Shan who single-handedly overwhelmed the Hidden Rock Village! Now, I want to take action, who agrees and who opposes?"
Having said that, who among the jonin dared to object? They were not fools, so they could only silently praise the Hokage's abundant martial virtues in their hearts.
"The Kirigakure Village doesn't know what's good for them. I will teach them a lesson myself. In the village, all of you should listen to the words of Vice Hokage Uchiha Keiji and Chief Hyuga Hiashi. In three days at most, I will drive the Kirigakure Village's army back home to play in the mud!"
"The meeting is dismissed!"
All the jonin left instantly as if they had been pardoned. Yeshan restrained his breath and turned into the amiable Hokage again. He sat in the chair leisurely, took out a cigarette, lit it, and blew out a beautiful smoke ring.
Uchiha Keiji was about to speak but stopped. Ye Shan glanced at him and said, "Just say whatever you want to say. Hiashi is not an outsider. We are all family."
This sentence made Hinata Hiashi feel warm in his heart, and he only regretted that he was not flattering enough.
"Hokage, your ninjutsu is unique and has surpassed the limits of what the human body can achieve, but the corresponding side effects are not small. I am worried that it is not good for you to use it frequently."
A hint of coldness flashed in Ye Shan's eyes. He knew that Uchiha Keiji was talking about shortening his lifespan. The news had leaked out after all, but he didn't take it to heart. Before he mastered the five types of chakra, he would indeed shorten his lifespan after fully activating the ninjutsu, but now was different. He had mastered the five types of chakra. The gold, wood, water, fire and earth chakras formed a perfect cycle in his body, and he no longer had to worry about the sequelae.
"It's okay. This won't happen again."
Uchiha Keiji was overjoyed, a sincere smile appeared on his face and he said: "In this way, I have nothing to worry about!"
"Immediately send the Ninja Hawk to notify Vice Hokage Minato Namikaze to increase vigilance, and ask Master Jiraiya to come to the office. I have an important task to assign."
"Are you worried about the safety of the Mizunotsuki clan?"
Ye Shan nodded and said, "Yes, we don't know what's going on inside the Hidden Mist Village right now. I'm worried that the Mizukage will do something to harm the Mizunotsuki clan. It's only right to send Jiraiya to the Land of Water to protect them. After all, that guy has been hanging around in brothels all day for the past six months. He's been living a very comfortable life. It's time to find him some work to do."
"How are the preparations for the Hyuga clan's birthday going?"
Hinata Hiashi was frowning as he tried to smoke. He was a ninja with aristocratic manners in his bones. He normally didn't smoke or drink, but several Hokage liked it. In order to integrate into the group better and faster, he also started smoking, but he was not used to the taste.
"Don't worry, Hokage-sama. I will do everything myself, and there will be no mistakes!"
Ye Shan smiled and said meaningfully: "We should not be afraid of making mistakes when doing things, just do our best. Hiashi, you have just been entrusted with an important task, and you may not be familiar with some government affairs. Brother Keiji is a kind person, so you should get to know him more often."
The meaning behind his words is obvious. Don't be in a hurry to show off. Report everything to the Deputy Hokage in charge. It is understandable that you make mistakes in this way.
Being a leader is full of contradictions. On the one hand, you want to leave things to your subordinates to do and enjoy your leisure time, but on the other hand, you want to hold the power all the time. Now it is true that Ye Shan wants to reuse Hinata Hiashi, but he insists on gradual progress. After all, you can't know a person's heart by his appearance.
