Chapter 37: Konoha's Iron Rule

White Fang understood what the three generations meant.

However, this Konoha fangs have never been tacitly understood, so he simply opened his mouth and asked bluntly, "What do you mean, Lord Miyo, do you think that the village needs to maintain the status quo for the time being?" ”

Ape Fei took a puff of cigarette, the muscles on his face did not move in the slightest, perhaps because he didn't think it was interesting to stare at Bai Fang's calm eyes, he looked out the window:

"Shuo Mao, you haven't experienced real war, so you don't understand the value of this situation."

The advisors listened silently without saying a word, and it was clear that these most powerful elders in Konoha today had a consensus on this point.

"Yes, I admit that if only the employment relationship is considered, the responsibility for the loss of land should not be borne by the village if Konoha does his best.

"However, you need to know that when the first generation signed a contract with the Daimyo of the Fire Country to establish a one-country-one-village system, the state provided Konoha with the land and population to build the village, provided task orders, and fully supported the development of the village, so that Konoha has the peace and prosperity it has today.

"Konoha is not only an ally of the Fire Country, but at the same time, Konoha ninjas are also members of the Fire Country.

"Shuo Mao, there's one thing, you're wrong.

"Ninja, it's not a tool, that's right. However, ninjas, again, are not otherworldly beings.

"Ninjas, no different from peasants, workers, merchants, or even officials and aristocrats, are not sacred, nor are they nobler than the ordinary people of the Land of Fire, ninjas contribute to the country and are rewarded by the state for it. This is no different from other professions.

"If you have to say that ninjas can be proud of themselves, then it will only come from one point - ninjas have the duty to protect the village, the country and the people!"

Ape Fei turned his head, gently put down his pipe, looked at White Fang's eyes with sincerity and sincerity, and said word by word:

"Ninja pay for their labor, and the state pays for it, and that's exactly what the [employment] relationship between a ninja and the state is in.

"The village and the country are equal allies, so the ninja will never be allowed to become a tool to be used by anyone - to make the ninja pay, the equivalent reward must be provided, this is the foundation of everything, and it is an iron rule that the village will never waver!

"On this basis, whoever wants to destroy the current stable and peaceful situation in Konoha now, who wants to destroy the firm alliance between the Fire Nation and Konoha and let countless Konoha children like Kakashi fall into the chaos of helpless war, who is the enemy of the village, and who is the enemy of all Konoha ninjas!"

At the end, the three generations of Hokage Ape Flying Sun Slash were already full of voice, and their eyes were bright and sharp, as if they were holding two knives that were still stained with human blood, and they were full of murderous aura:

"In other words, whoever wants to destroy the status quo of the village and fail to bring a better situation to the village must die!"

In front of the white fangs, this male of the ninja world has an awe-inspiring demeanor, his beard is erect, and his words are like a steel nail, with a solidity and sharpness that almost penetrates people's hearts, and he is loud and clear.

White Fang was silent, and after more than ten seconds, he replied calmly:

"I see."

These four words blocked all the bitter words and even aggressive threats that Ape Fei had originally prepared. Ape Fei even frowned a little unprepared, and didn't speak for a while.

Sensing Hokage-sama's concerns, White Fang spoke:

"Three generations of adults, you need to consider the interests of the entire village, for the sake of the village, so you must maintain the current situation."

After a pause, White Fang stood up, bowed slightly, and repeated:

"I see what you mean, you're right."

Ape Fei sat down on the sofa tiredly, waved his hand, and said:

"In that case, Shuo Mao, then you should go and get busy first, don't forget to prepare a mission to the two countries of wind and rain, and Tuan Zang will contact you when the time comes."

White Fang nodded, and vanished in an instant, leaving Ape Fei and the three advisors to think about each other in the scent of tea that filled the entire conference room.

It was light and rainy.

Perhaps the moisture in the air absorbs the noise, and in the overcast skylight, the Konoha State Guesthouse looks dark and quiet.

It's been almost a week since I arrived in Konoha, but I heard that Fujiwara-sama, who was entrusted with a heavy task by the Daimyo, is not in a hurry at all. Although Konoha had been courteous and courteous and ceremonious for a week, he did not mention anything about arranging for the envoy to meet with the Hokage.

The young man was really not in a hurry at all, but Ryoemon, who was both a waiter and a confidant, was in a hurry.

Knock knock.

"Come in."

The lazy but clear voice that is peculiar to young people sounded, and Liangemon carefully opened the door in front of him and stepped in.

"Young Master."

Tall, but because of his age, he couldn't help but look too thin, Fujiwara Munejun, the special envoy of the Fire Country, Konoha Special Envoy, was dressed in a black robe, standing in front of the table, and holding a brush in his hand, he turned around and asked:

"Ryoemon, what's the matter?"

Seeing the bright eyes of the young man, Liangemon couldn't help but jump in his heart, despite his young age, no one dared to despise the 10-year-old who succeeded to the position of head of the family, and it took 2 years to clean up the inside and outside of the family, and now he is a political star trusted by the daimyo.

It's not that no one has questioned Zong Chun's ability, but those people were all slapped in the face by irrefutable facts. Ryemon was not so convinced by the boy who was more than 10 years younger than himself at the beginning, and after being swayed by Zongchun's ability and wisdom many times, Ryemon still didn't learn to behave.

Of course, it's not because Ryaemon is a shaker, in his Ryaemon's opinion, he is deeply valued by the old Fujiwara family master, and even given "Fujiwara" as his family name, if he gives up his duties as a domestic servant because he is afraid of being slapped in the face by the boy, and does not give advice to the head of the family, then there is no need for his existence.

Even if there is only a small possibility that your own wrong advice can benefit the head of the family, that is good.

"Young master, it's been a week since I arrived here, but there has been no breakthrough in the affairs of the envoy, and I am afraid it will be difficult to explain it in the face of the daimyo."

Zong Chun was stunned for a moment, didn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

Ryoemon didn't move to the ridicule of the master, and kept his waist in a respectful arc, but he still held his head high and looked at him persistently.

Zong Chun put down the pen, took the clean hand towel on the side and wiped his fingers, he looked at the bright-eyed Liangemon, restrained the smile on his face, and was a little moved in his heart.

Although this family member does not have the ability to act as a strategist in any sense, this kind of tireless loyalty to share the worries of the main family is the reason why Zong Chun took him with him.
