"What is this? A demon invited us from the Demon Slayer Corps to kill demons?"

Fuzugawa Shiya on the side also snorted coldly:

"The weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken, but he has no good intentions."

However, Xingming of Beiming Island was puzzled:

"Your Majesty is weak now and could die at any time. At this time, shouldn't Prince Arisugawa, as the first heir, bide his time and wait for the right opportunity to inherit the throne? Why couldn't Xu Fu hold back at this time and wanted to drag our Demon Slayer Corps into the dispute within the imperial family?"

Facing the fear and doubt of the crowd, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, who had been paying attention to the world's situation during this period of time, coughed and said:

"Because they can't wait any longer."

"Can't wait?" Fuzugawa Saneya asked puzzledly:

"He has lived for two thousand years. Can't he wait for a few years?"

In response, Ubuyashiki Yoya shook his head and said:

"It's not Xu Fu who can't wait, nor is it the royal family who can't wait, it's them who can't wait!"

they?

"My lord, when you say 'they', do you mean the military?"

"It's not just the military." Ubuyashiki Kazuya said:

"In the previous war against Shenzhou, those who started the war gained huge benefits after the war. In addition to the military, these people also included factory owners who manufactured weapons, merchants who sold food, and even speculators from other countries who wanted to stir up the situation... They all hoped that a war would break out between us and Shenzhou so that they could take advantage of the opportunity to seek benefits."

At the end, Ubuyashiki Yoya said in a cold tone:

"It's not just these dignitaries, even most of the common people in our country want to use war to devour the flesh and blood of China. China's territory, resources, and the people of China who are used to being slaves are huge temptations for everyone in our country."

After hearing this, Shinobu Kocho understood what Ubuyashiki Yoya meant when he said "They can't wait any longer".

In short, in the previous war against Shenzhou, Xiaoshi gained huge benefits. For this reason, the whole country is like a ghost that has eaten human flesh, and everyone is eager to devour more of Shenzhou's flesh and blood.

But the problem is that the current Tian Huang is not a wise king. Compared with his father, the current Tian Huang is just a drunkard who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day. And such a Tian Huang who just eats and waits for death is obviously not interested in starting a war.

The whole country is eager to start a war, but the leader, Tian Huang, does not want to start a war. Such Tian Huang is obviously very annoying. Therefore, the extreme forces in the country put pressure on Prince Arisugawa, hoping that the eldest son of Tian Huang will play a role quickly and make his father abdicate quickly.

In the face of overwhelming public opinion, even if Xu Fu, who possessed Prince Arisugawa, was a thousand-year-old ghost, he could only obey. Even if he did not necessarily want to kill the contemporary locust, he had to take extreme measures under the pressure of the current situation. Otherwise, not only the contemporary locust, but even he, the eldest son of the emperor, would be killed by the extremists.

"That's why Xufu came to our Demon Slayer Corps and wanted to join forces with us." Shinobu Kocho said:

"Because from a rational point of view, now is not the best time to take action against Shenzhou. First of all, the national strength of Xiaorizi is still lacking. Secondly, we must also consider the possibility of other countries intervening in the process of annexing Shenzhou. Also, if he really ascends the throne under the surging public opinion, such a Tianhuang will inevitably lack foundation and influence. Especially once the crime of patricide is carried out, Prince Arisugawa's Tianhuang throne may collapse at any time."

Shinobu Kocho analyzed this, but thought in her heart:

It seems that Ubuyashiki Yoya may have also realized that the root cause of the war between Xiaori and Shenzhou was not the royal family headed by Tianhuang, but the people who were eager for war. Even if there were no Tianhuang and no royal family, as long as Xiaori still felt that they could easily conquer Shenzhou and gain huge benefits from the war to conquer Shenzhou, this war would inevitably happen.

Because the people who really pushed this war to happen were the 70 million citizens who were living a simple life!

But the question is, is there any way to stop the enthusiasm for war in the hearts of tens of millions of citizens?

Even as a time traveler, Shinobu Kocho has no way to change all this. Because it is not others but the Western powers that are now at the top of the international order that have truly ignited the enthusiasm in the hearts of the people of Xiaori.

England, France, America, Russia...

Which of these Western powers did not start out by relying on colonial plunder?

Even now, each of them still occupies more than tens of millions of territories and lives a life of luxury and debauchery. As long as they still exist, as long as the sins of these Western powers have not been settled, the enthusiasm for launching wars in the hearts of the people of Xiaozi will not disappear. The war between Xiaozi and Shenzhou is, after all, just an imitation of the successful cases of Western powers.

After all, if monks can touch it, why can’t I?

If the Western powers can do it, why can’t I live a normal life?

After all, the so-called World War I and World War II are nothing more than the continuation of Western colonial wars.

The difference is that as rising stars, the Little Japan and the Little Mustache no longer have other colonies to rob, so they can only extend their butcher knives to their fellow citizens in the so-called civilized world. The countless corpses of the world wars are nothing more than the backlash of the colonial expansion of the Western powers over the past few hundred years!

Therefore, the outbreak of a world war is inevitable, and the expansion of a small life is also inevitable.

Just like ghosts must eat people. In a world where everyone is a ghost, if you don't eat people, you will be eaten by others.

After thinking for a while, Shinobu Kocho asked Ubuyashiki Kazuya:

"Xu Fu contacted us in the name of the royal family. What does he want us to do?"

Upon hearing this, Ubuyashiki Yoya sneered:

"Of course, kill the locusts."

"According to Xu Fu, the contemporary Heavenly Locust is not only greedy and lustful, but also afraid of death. After learning that he was going to die soon, he immediately sent people to use the latest research results of the military to turn himself into an immortal ghost. This approach is obviously contrary to the interests of the upper echelons of the royal family."

"After all, neither the royal family nor the cabinet wants the contemporary Sky Locust to rule for a long time. Coupled with the pressure from the people and the dissatisfaction of various forces with the contemporary Sky Locust, Xu Fu was forced to invite our Demon Slayer Corps. Obviously, he wants to use us to eradicate the contemporary Sky Locust."

As soon as Ubuyashiki Yoya finished speaking, Kocho Shinobu interrupted and said:

“After we kill the current generation of Sky Locust, he can put the blame on us, the Demon Slayer Corps. Finally, he can kill us and become the next Sky Locust as the first successor with the support of the majority of the people. Hehe, what a good plan!”

Chapter 175 Southward Strategy

Everyone in the Demon Slayer Corps was well aware of Xu Fu's plan.

However, there were obvious differences within the Demon Slayer Corps on how to deal with this matter.

Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's original idea was to bring about internal changes in the society by eliminating the royal family, and thus prevent the war from happening.

But now, as the Demon Slayer Corps understands the world situation, the Konoha high-level officials headed by Ubuyashiki Yoya have realized that the destruction of the royal family cannot prevent the war from happening. After all, the contemporary Sky Locust is certainly not a good thing, and it is possible that he has become a man-eating evil demon. But his existence has indeed prevented the war from happening. Therefore, the Demon Slayer Corps must not cooperate with Xu Fu, but should maintain the rule of the contemporary Sky Locust and maintain the current peaceful situation.

However, some people have different opinions. Some pillars think that the current Tianhuang is weak and incompetent and cannot suppress the surging public opinion in the country for a long time, so the best thing for the Demon Slayer Corps is to take this opportunity to stir up the internal strife of the royal family and then cause internal disputes among the high-level officials of Xiaori. Only when the entire Xiaori is deeply involved in internal strife, the battle will not happen.

Therefore, the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps had a fierce debate at the meeting of the pillars around the two different views. As one of the nine pillars, Shinobu Kocho chose to remain silent at this critical moment.

Looking at Shinobu Kocho who was lost in thought, Ubuyashiki Yoya asked curiously.

"Ms. Shinobu, do you have any ideas?"

Butterfly Shinobu considered:

"I was just wondering, if things really develop to the point where it is unavoidable, what should we, the Demon Slayer Corps, do?"

"To the point where it is unavoidable?"

The meaning of Shinobu Kocho's words was very clear. If the battle still happened after the Demon Slayer Corps took various actions, what should they do?

"Shinobu, are you thinking too far ahead?" Fuzugawa Shimazu asked in confusion:

"The most important thing now is to consider Xu Fu's matter. We can talk about the future later!"

In response, Ubuyashiki Yoya shook his head and said:

"I think Miss Shinobu's considerations make sense. As the saying goes, a man without long-term plans will have immediate worries. We, the Demon Slayer Corps, cannot always consider the present when making decisions, otherwise we will only be led by the situation. So when making decisions now, we should also consider various possibilities in the future. Whether it is to help Xufu or to deal with Xufu, we have to think about which decision is more likely to cause serious consequences. And once serious consequences occur, under which decision will our Demon Slayer Corps be more able to make up for it afterwards."

So, following the thoughts of Shinobu Kocho and Ubuyashiki Kyouya, Gyoumei Homura clasped his hands together and sighed:

"If we help Xu Fu, then given Xu Fu's ambition, the situation will inevitably develop to the most serious level. However, Xu Fu's thousand-year-old demon's methods, even if we, the Demon Slayer Corps, want to stop him, it will be as difficult as ascending to heaven. At least at that time, Xu Fu was under heavy protection, and we could not deal with him at all."

Then, Kocho Shinobu continued:

"By contrast, if we kill Xu Fu now, the possibility of the situation getting worse will undoubtedly be much smaller."

After another round of debate, the Demon Slayer Corps decided on their next course of action.

First, they agreed to cooperate with Xu Fu on the surface to kill the contemporary locusts who were about to become demons. After all, Xu Fu was now possessed by Prince Arisugawa, and behind him stood the interests of most people in the country, represented by the royal family. As the Demon Slayer Corps was not ready to turn against the authorities, they had to choose to cooperate with Xu Fu in name.

Secondly, at the critical moment, he chose to stand on the side of the contemporary Tian Huang. Even if the contemporary Tian Huang became a man-eating ghost, he would never let Xu Fu, who coveted Shengzhou, take the throne. Because although the contemporary Tian Huang had various shortcomings, he was a conservative after all. Whether it was maintaining the status quo or the southward strategy, this Tian Huang was needed to complete it.

Furthermore, while maintaining the status of the contemporary locust, it is necessary to disrupt the situation at the top as much as possible. It is best to stir up brutal internal strife among the top leaders, distract the attention of the people, and possibly delay the occurrence of the battle.

This point was raised by Shinobu Kocho. After this incident, she planned to go to the church in the Demon Slayer world and completely eradicate the evil demons of the Xunshan Hermitage.

Then, in the name of Xiao Rizi, they instigated struggles in Nanyang and used extreme means to force Xiao Rizi to focus on Nanyang.

Hearing what Shinobu Kocho was planning, Gyoumei couldn't help but sigh:

"Amitabha, all sentient beings in the world are constantly rotating in the three worlds and six realms. There is no distinction between men and women, high and low, or upper and lower, and there is no different name. This is true for moths, ordinary people, and even kings and generals. Therefore, my Buddha said that all sentient beings are equal. People in the world accumulate good deeds and become virtuous, and accumulate evil deeds to become ghosts. Those who accumulate virtues transcend the six realms, and those who accumulate evil deeds fall into reincarnation forever. My Demon Slayer Corps was originally to support good and eliminate evil, but I didn't expect to have such a plan today. It is destined to hurt innocent people. How sad and lamentable!"

As a pure Buddhist, Beimingyu Xingmei has no idea of superiority or inferiority in his eyes. Even after joining the Demon Slayer Corps, he still did not give up his faith and took the most difficult path of killing to prove his Buddhahood. This is what is meant by "Killing to protect life, and killing karma is not killing people." Even so, thinking of the blood that might be stained on the hands of the Demon Slayer Corps in the future, he still sighed.

Uzui Tengen, who was born in a ninja family, said:

"I suddenly feel that being a ninja is easier. A ninja only needs to complete the mission. I don't want to be so entangled now."

Hearing everyone's sighs, Shinobu Kocho said calmly:

"Suffering? I don't think it's a big deal."

Everyone was confused, and Rengoku Kyojuro asked:

"After our plan, all kinds of disputes may arise in both Xiaoshi and Nanyang. I wonder how many people will live in misery because of this. Is it not a big deal?"

Faced with the questioning, Kocho Shinobu actually nodded and said:

"Of course it's no big deal."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him in surprise, Shinobu Kocho explained calmly:

“You are also people living in this land. Haven’t you ever experienced hardship? As a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, don’t you know what kind of life the people in this land live?”

As she spoke, Kocho Shinobu turned around and pointed at everyone one by one.

"As the Rock Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, Mr. Haimeishima was originally a monk who adopted orphans. Have you ever thought about why there are so many orphans in this country? And the fact that there are many orphans is one thing, but they were also attacked by evil spirits in the dark night and all died. Isn't the experience of these orphans suffering? Why don't you think about where the suffering of these orphans comes from?"

Hearing this, tears welled up in Beimingyu Xingming's eyes and he sang "Amitabha" again.

Shinobu Kocho pointed at Fuzugawa Sane and said:

"And you, the current Wind Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, Fuzugawa Saneya. As far as I know, before you encountered the demons, you and your brothers and sisters depended on your mother for survival. Have you ever wondered why your life was so hard? You started earning money to support your family at a young age, and then your family was destroyed because of the demons. Don't you know what suffering is?"

Upon hearing this, Busei Kagawa snorted angrily, and at this moment, he looked at Shinobu Kocho with dissatisfaction in his eyes.

But at this moment, Shinobu Kocho remained unmoved, and said as if no one was around:

"There are only a few people here, many of whom come from big families, but nearly half of them have had a miserable life. The suffering of one person may be a trick of fate, but doesn't the suffering of so many people explain the problem?"

"Wherever you travel, have you seen orphans begging on the roadside? When you pass by the fields, have you seen farmers whose food has been robbed? When you stay in the city, have you seen the unbridled gangsters? There are also parents who are forced to sell their children, and kabuki who sell their bodies instead of performing arts to make a living. These sufferings are everywhere!"

"Everyone is already living in misery! Every year, countless innocent people are devoured by demons! No one cares about them, even though they have to do their best just to stay alive!"

After hearing this, the anger in everyone's hearts had gradually subsided, and everyone was listening to Shinobu Kocho's story.

After all, he is a pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps. Who hasn't seen corpses on the roadside and displaced people?

The female worker in the silk reeling factory whose hands were scalded by hot water but still worked for more than ten hours;

There is no sunlight in the mines all day long, and people work there just to support their families.

Farmers who work on the land cannot get enough food, and chefs who cook have no access to delicious food. The so-called suffering has never been a minority, but can be seen everywhere.

"Also, one of the economic pillars of our daily life is the silk industry. The main exported silk comes from major silk reeling factories. Do you know how silk reeling factories pull silk from silkworm pupae? They put the pupae in hot water and let the female workers in the silk reeling factory pull out the silk with their bare hands in the hot water! Do you know how harmful this kind of work is to people? According to statistics, 70% of female workers do not work for more than five years! Why? Because many female workers' hands are rotten after only a few years of work! For them, it is a problem to survive, not to mention working. So many female workers have to become street girls after leaving the factory, relying on selling their bodies to make a living."

Hearing this, everyone present was either dumbfounded or frowned in deep thought.

"Also, the workers who make a living work at least 12 hours a day, and many have to work up to 14 hours. But the compensation they can get is pitifully small. According to statistics, the daily wage of female workers is only 4 cents, and male workers are better off, but only 8 cents. In contrast, the price of rice in our country is about 9 cents per liter. One liter of rice is about 2 kilograms, which is enough for an adult to eat for a day. The daily wages of an adult male worker are only enough to feed his family. And most of this is brown rice, and the price of polished rice is much more expensive than this."

"But the problem is, a person can't just live on rice, right? Counting other expenses, a worker working 14 hours a day can only keep himself and his family from starving to death! Not to mention, 9 cents and 2 cents is still an ideal wage, after all, not every worker has work every day. And most of those factory owners are vampires. They will find various excuses to deduct at least 20% of the workers' daily wages as fines. Sometimes, the total amount of fines can be as high as half of the wages! Workers work hard all day, but the wages they can get may not even be enough to eat!"

Hearing this, everyone was silent. They knew many things, but at least they had never laid them out in the open like they were now. Beimingyu Xingming could not help but sigh, "All living things suffer." Shinobu Kocho finally said:

"This is the current state of our lives, and it is also the reason why the battle will inevitably break out."

"When I saw these data, I knew that the situation was likely to develop to the worst. So I thought about reducing future losses as much as possible. Even though I knew that this strategy was equally cruel, there was nothing I could do!"

……

At the same time, in the void outside the world.

Watching the Kocho Shinobu trying so hard to stop the battle formation in this world, the old Uzumaki Naruto sighed slightly:

"The future of this world has already been determined, and the battle is bound to happen. Your current plan is nothing more than a mirage in the end."

After sighing, the old Naruto picked up the red halo in his hand. He used the ultimate ninjutsu called Genesis, and a figure slowly appeared under the red halo. The figure was pale, but extremely handsome. It was Judas who was supposed to die with Li Shimin. At this moment, with the help of the old Naruto's ninjutsu, he was resurrected from the dead.

Looking at the reborn Judas, the old Naruto nodded slightly. Then he pushed hard and sent the resurrected Judas back to the original world. In the Demon Slayer world, Judas' figure actually appeared directly in the imperial palace of Xiao Ri Ri. Then he possessed the fat and ugly body of the contemporary Tian Huang.

"Judas is a madman who is extremely devout to God. Now he will certainly use various means to promote the church's faith. And the expansion of the church's faith will inevitably cause chaos within Xiaori."

It turns out that the reason why the elderly Naruto resurrected Judas was not to make things difficult for Shinobu Kocho, but to help Shinobu Kocho.
