Chapter 40: The Cat with the Bell

The Qimu family has fallen to the point where it is really unprofitable.

The signboard of White Fang, in the current situation, may not be able to go anywhere.

Therefore, coupled with the fact that some people in the Qimu family have also avoided suspicion and suspended contact with the main family, it is conceivable how the Qimu Mansion has been in the recent days.

White Fang's personality determines that he doesn't really care much about this kind of thing, and the reason why he is touched by Makoto's behavior is only because White Fang knows that the reason that drives Makoto to do this is nothing else, just a personal relationship between the two.

Looking back on the physical guidance carried out because of a little appreciation after the middle ninja exam that year, Baiya asked himself, he may not have some meaning of "investment". But things have developed so far, the entire Konoha is like Makoto, a person who has no suspicion of each other and only has a simple friendship with White Fang, but there is only Makoto this one, and the world is so impermanent, White Fang sometimes sighs a little in his heart.

It's not that the dignified White Fang actually got into such a miserable situation in Konoha in Konoha, if you really want to talk about the hidden forces, in the Konoha army that followed the White Fang Breaking Wind Country, there were a lot of people who were willing to die for the White Fang, even now, from time to time, there are old subordinates who are now serving in the dark department and quietly deliver news to Qimu House.

But like Makoto Uchiha, who are equal to each other and have nothing to do with each other's power status, I really can't find a few.

If White Fang still had a need to revive the flag, he should have tried his best to keep this army in his hands when he led the troops back to Konoha in the name of a hero.

Now that many years have passed, although there is still movement between him and his old subordinates, if White Fang raises the flag against Konoha tomorrow, knowing that White Fang will die, there will be a few people who are willing to bury him, and White Fang naturally knows in his heart.

After all, people have to live after all.

really to the point where the water is clear and there are no fish, not to mention others, the sincerity in front of him, he will definitely refuse to follow the white fang to rebel, although, the white tooth has never thought about rebellion.

Thinking of this, White Fang was amused by his own cold joke and couldn't help but smile.

Makoto was a little creepy by this unprovoked smile, and almost choked on his own saliva:

"Shuo, Shuomao...... You won't be, do that......"

It is impossible to live only for oneself, and even the bold and honest man will be too nervous to speak in the face of a rebellion that is almost certain to fail.

White Fang kept the corners of his mouth curvy and shook his head with a smile.

Although Makoto would not hesitate to choose to help Hakufang when White Fang was in danger, it was impossible for Makoto to abandon other precious people for his White Fang.

With such a messy thought, White Fang finally spoke:

"Makoto, I can't pretend you didn't hear you say that the three generations of adults are conservatives."

"Originally, the daimyo side has already tried to see that as the most powerful military force in the Fire Country, even if Konoha doesn't want to make a big mess, there is no need to compromise to this point."

"At this point?" Raising the cup in front of him, White Fang took a sip, and asked leisurely without raising his eyes to look at Makoto.

"Well, according to what I mean, directly send half of the quasi-shadow level in the village now, and you can easily overturn the three generations of wind shadows, and Konoha's internal and external predicament will be solved, so why bother with any daimyo envoys."

I was always worried about the "end" of White Fang in the end, and I accidentally slipped out of my mouth, and I was vigilant in a complaining tone ready to be vague.

Although the two of them knew that sending a strong man to the Land of the Wind would not be able to talk about the word "easy" anyway, as for preparing to overturn the three generations of Wind Shadow, if it was not for preparing to fight against the Land of the Wind, it would be impossible at all.

White Fang shook his head, but he didn't care about Cheng's obvious nonsense, but his expression was very calm.

"In this situation, the handling made by the three generations of adults is already the most appropriate."

Although it is not wrong to say this...... "The interests of all parties have been taken into account, and I admit that this is a more mature way to deal with it."

"Well, let's put it this way, do you know how many ninja villages there are in the ninja world?" Seeing Cheng's reluctance, White Fang suddenly had Yaxing to explain to him.

"Hundreds...... If you count some unknown small ninja villages. "No one has counted that in the ninja world, the establishment of ninja villages can almost be said to be a fashion, and small ninja villages that have disappeared before they have time to be known to the public are almost everywhere.

"But there are only five great ninja villages where the leader can be called 'shadow'."

“……”

"Don't think that these big ninja villages are so remarkable, when Konoha was first built, it was just the scale of a small ninja village."

Although there is a big gap in this sentence, Makoto still tries to understand the meaning of the white fang.

"You mean, the key lies in the support of the five major powers?"

"I know what you're trying to say, it's true that peerless powerhouses like the First Lord and Madara-sama can't be measured by scale at all - but don't forget, because they are so powerful, there are only two people in the entire ninja world, and in that case, how did the four big villages develop?"

"The First Sealed Tailed Beast ......"

Although surprised at how Makoto's age knew so much about this kind of secret, perhaps attributing it to Makoto's origins, and not dwelling on this, White Fang continued:

"But if they don't have the confidence to resist Konoha at the very least, how dare they accept the tailed beast that the first generation gave them."

Makoto was silent.

"Even with powerful ninjutsu, ninjas are still human beings, they get tired, they get hurt, they have to eat, and they starve to death if they don't have food. Ninjas can't live alone in this world, so they don't have the confidence to ignore other professions.

"Yes, ninjas are the most powerful force in the world and can rely on looting and even enslavement to obtain resources.

"But," a cold smile suddenly appeared on White Fang's face, and he said, "Ninja is not just a family, when a village tries to control all its resources and power, it will inevitably suffer from the hostility of all other professions in the world, pay attention, I am talking about everything!"

"At that point, all of these professions will be priced out to the ninjas for their madness, demanding that they execute the rebels of the existing system, and even the rebels themselves will fall apart at the prospect of failure.

"Let's make an assumption, let's assume that Konoha is this rebel now.

"When we laid down the nearest granary and felt relieved that we didn't have to worry about the food supply for the time being, we were faced with the sand ninja, cloud ninja, rock ninja, and misty ninja who received several times the bounty to attack Konoha! Then, when Konoha thinks that they can at least get a little bit of temporary rest through the big war, they will suddenly find that there is also a betrayer within themselves - people, after all, they have to live, and this betrayer may be Senju, Uchiha, Hinata, Sarutobi, ......"

At this time, there was a frozen calm in White Fang's eyes:

"Ninjas need to be paid to perform their tasks, and there is more than one ninja

"--This is the shackles that ninjas wear!"

Isn't this just a rat putting a bell on a group of cats...... With inexplicable malice, Makoto thought silently.

However, since the bell has been put on, it is wishful thinking to catch mice like a cat without a bell.
