Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 69 He gave too much
Facing Mei Zuimei's question, Yagura had a complicated expression on his face and said slowly: "If Konoha's prosperity is related to him, then it is indeed true."

Why are things like this?

Because Konoha is too strong!
Konoha was so powerful that he had to pay a huge amount of compensation, which was the most generous compensation since the several Ninja World Wars.

It is precisely because of Konoha's strength that Kirigakure has laid hidden dangers for the future in order to negotiate as soon as possible.

The war faction headed by the Kaguya clan, the followers of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and even those who oppose him becoming the Mizukage will definitely keep an eye on him, waiting for him to reveal a flaw.

However, the compensation to Konoha and the inevitable reduction in funding for the Water Country due to the defeat in the Kirigakure war told him that those people would definitely wait for an opportunity.

After the peace talks, Kirigakure is living in a worse situation. Who is responsible?
Of course it’s Ying’s responsibility!
This should have been borne by the Third Hokage, but in order to reduce the losses of Kirigakure and facilitate peace talks, it was Yagura who temporarily took over as the Mizukage, so naturally he had to bear the responsibility.

"The leader of the Kaguya clan died on the battlefield, and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen also died."

Yagura stared at Youyou and said, "The hatred has not disappeared from Kirigakure, it's just that the time for it to explode has not come yet."

"Konoha is very strong, so strong that it is difficult for people to have the desire for revenge."

"But Konoha is very weak in attack. In the several Ninja World Wars, Konoha has never taken the initiative to declare war. This provides us with the best environment for internal fighting."

The war faction and the peace faction.

Daimyo and Kirigakure.

Those who are content with the status quo and those who want to make Kirigakure stronger.

The accumulated dissatisfaction will explode sooner or later, but because the countries outside are too powerful and the natural geographical environment of the Water Kingdom, it will only happen within the Water Kingdom.

"I can't retreat. Once I retreat, Kirigakure will never be strong again. But I can't damage my own strength and destroy the Kaguya clan and other dissatisfied ninjas. That will make Kirigakure gradually weaker and become weaker than Sunagakure."

Yagura looked at Mei Terumi seriously, and said in a serious tone, "Hinata Yu gave me a multiple-choice question. Do you want Kirigakure to sink into internal strife or break out of its cocoon and be reborn? It all depends on the result of my transformation!"

"But reform will inevitably lead to bloodshed, and changing the one-country-one-village system will face huge obstacles. I may fail, and then Kirigakure will be handed over to you, Ming!"

Faced with these almost explicit words, Mei Terumi opened her mouth and her mind went blank.

Yagura continued: "You have the greatest potential among your generation as you have double bloodline. Although Kisame is not bad, he is more suitable to be a pure ninja. You have the potential to become a Kage."

Mei Terumi came back to her senses, took a deep breath, and knelt on one knee, "I will live up to your trust!"

Seeing this, Yagura smiled with satisfaction, "Get up."

When Mei Terumi stood up, seeing her worried expression, Yagura smiled comfortingly and said, "Don't worry so much. The reason why he chose Kirigakure to carry out this plan is because Kirigakure is the most suitable."

Due to the unique geographical advantages of the Water Kingdom, as long as it is handled properly, it is difficult for the outside world to know about some changes in the Water Kingdom’s top leadership.

As long as they can keep their internal situation stable and not expose themselves, Kirigakure will not be immediately targeted by other daimyo.

Mei Terumi felt relieved after hearing this and asked, "Given his status, it would be more convenient for him to do this in the Land of Fire, right? What exactly is his purpose?"

"The Fire Nation is not an option. As the first country to advocate the one-country-one-village system under the leadership of the First Hokage, it is the most difficult to change and faces a lot of resistance."

Yagura's eyes flickered as he spoke here, "And if our reforms are effective, it will be Kirigakure's turn to force other countries to change."

"Hinata Yu...he wants to completely destroy the one country, one village system!"

……

On the way back to Konoha, Tsunade reached out to stop Hinata Yu and said with a smile:
"Stinky boy, I finally caught you. It's really not easy to see you during this period of time."

"Tsunade-senpai, is there something you want to discuss with me?" "Don't give me that crap. Tell me, did you cheat when you gambled with me?"

"No."

Tsunade couldn't tell the truth from Hinata Yu's expressionless face, and she was a little speechless, "That's not what you said before."

"It's normal for Tsunade-senpai to lose, right? Why do you think there's something wrong with me winning?"

Hinata Yu asked calmly.

"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you." Tsunade curled her lips and turned away. "Forget it. It seems pointless to trouble you about this."

Hinata Yu followed, "Now that you have no questions, I want to talk to you about something else."

"Go ahead."

As the two of them walked through the woods together, Hinata Yu asked softly, "Do you have any thoughts on becoming a consultant?"

Tsunade frowned slightly and looked at Minato in the distance thoughtfully, "In this war, Uchiha Fugaku and you have made great contributions. Shouldn't the position of advisor be given to Uchiha and Hyuga?"

The advisor is a voice for the ninja clan, guaranteeing the clan's interests to a certain extent. It is best to let a high-ranking member of the ninja clan take this position.

As for the two current advisors…she didn’t think Minato would lose to Danzo, so there was no need to think about their fate.

"One of the positions is indeed given to Patriarch Fugaku, but the other one is best for you to take."

Tsunade was also familiar with these twists and turns, and understood instantly, "You want me to appease those ninja clans?"

The ninja clan will not perish. Konoha needs their strength. They will have to bleed heavily this time, but we can't do anything extreme.

There still needs to be a position for consultants.

Uchiha serves as an advisor, as the leader of the ninja clan...it can't be said to be suitable, it can only be said to be extremely inappropriate.

How many ninjas are on good terms with the Uchiha? Are they willing to consult with Fugaku?

Maybe it can improve slowly, but initially the consultant's responsibilities will just fall on another person.

So who is the most suitable person?
She is very powerful, and the ninja clan behind her has been integrated into the village. She is the best because she can communicate with most of the ninja clan.

And because of some previous grudges between her and the ninja clan, she can easily control them.

So in every way, it is beneficial for her to serve as a consultant.

but……

Tsunade thought for a moment and followed her heart, "I refuse! It's of no benefit to me personally. I don't want to deal with those old guys. My dream is..."

Hinata Yu said expressionlessly: "Konoha will pay off all your past debts for you."

Tsunade's heart was moved, but she still insisted: "My dream is to travel around the ninja world, not to stay in one place..."

"The gambling money from now on will be paid by Konoha. We will set a limit for you. You can withdraw money every month as long as it does not exceed the limit. And the position of consultant is just a figurehead. If you really don't want to contact the ninja clan, you can leave it to me and Chief Fugaku to handle."

Tsunade changed the subject and said seriously, "But Konoha is my home. I've been away from the village for several years, and I still want to stay here for a while. I'll just be an advisor... reluctantly."

Shizune, he gave too much, let's stay in Konoha from now on.
