Chapter 508: The Shadows are in action
【Thousands ♂ of ÷ small → said ◇ .], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
It didn't take long for the meeting in the Konoha building to end, and Rope Tree got a detailed record of the meeting.
Although most of the members of the Shadow Department Headquarters went with him, the Konoha Village, which was the foundation, was still left with a sophisticated intelligence network by the rope tree. The identities of these intelligence officers are very secretive, almost all over Konoha's departments and industries, and all of them are single-line contacts, and they are only managed by Rope Tree, and even Sarutobi does not know the specific situation of this intelligence network.
Relying on this secret intelligence network, even if the rope tree is out with troops, it can grasp any wind and grass inside Konoha!
In the past, Rope Tree was able to take countermeasures against Hanzo in advance, because of the information sent back in advance by an intelligence agent who penetrated the roots.
It turned out that the roots of the coalition army had sent back detailed information as early as after the end of the war, more than an hour earlier than the battle report of the rope tree, so the group that had received the information in advance had already discussed with several cronies the plan to attack the rope tree and take the opportunity to dismiss him from his position, and the three charges he had brought to the rope tree were thought up with the help of these cronies.
But what Tuan Zang didn't expect was that his carefully planned plan would be delivered to Rope Tree only a few minutes after it was completed.
After that, the secret letter that recorded the countermeasures of the rope tree was sent to the hands of the three generations of Hokage along with the battle report, and then there was a scene where Danzou was opposed by two advisors and the three generations of Hokage, causing the political conspiracy to be shattered again.
Of course, this incident will not end so easily, the content of this meeting will spread within Konoha sooner or later, and when these ninjas who are out with the rope tree know that Danzo is preparing to squeeze out their commander-in-chief to pick peaches, they will definitely feel bad and even hostile to the same enemy.
This is a major obstacle for Danzou who wants to compete for the Hokage's position.
You must know that the identity of the 70,000 ninja army who followed the rope tree on the expedition this time is very complicated, including the Hokage family, the family ninjas, and a large number of civilian ninjas, these people almost include the essence of all the factions of Konoha.
These people have won several victories under the leadership of Rope Tree, and they have more or less accumulated a certain amount of military exploits, and it seems that they have obtained more brilliant results under Rope Tree, at least in this war, their interests have been tied to Rope Tree, the commander-in-chief.
If Tuan Zang is allowed to remove Rope Tree on the charge of losing the war, then it will be equivalent to completely negating all their previous military exploits, and their desire to continue to make meritorious contributions will also come to naught!
As the saying goes, blocking people's futures is like killing their parents, and if Danzo's plan succeeds, it will be equivalent to cutting off the promotion path of nearly 70,000 elite ninjas, how can they not be disgusted?
So in the future, after these ninjas know what happened, even if they don't become enemies with Danzo, they will definitely not be able to pee with him.
In contrast, the rope tree not only took everyone to establish meritorious deeds together, but also made money together, and during this time, the distribution of the spoils of war alone made the Konoha ninja army earn a lot of money, not to mention the dividend benefits of the Konoha Foundation.
So in contrast, these ninjas must have very different senses for the two, and if the two compete for the position of Hokage in the future, everyone will support whoever they want to know with their butts!
What's even more tragic is that Tuan Zang's plan did not succeed, and it did not have the slightest impact on the rope tree, and his reputation would also be affected if he hesitated to fail again.
So in this confrontation, the rope tree won completely, and Tuan Zang didn't seem to have any substantial losses, but in fact, he lost the most important thing, which was people's hearts!
Rope Tree only managed to get out of the predicament with a little trick and also solved an important opponent for the position of Hokage, which is also the cruelty of political struggle, a small mistake can lead to a completely different result, the winner may not get everything and sit back and relax, while the loser will have a hard time getting up again!
So how did the intelligence officers of the dark department infiltrate the tightly controlled roots?
For several years, Danzou has relied on the control of the curse seal to aggressively expand the number of people in the roots, but this compulsive control has a huge loophole.
Within the roots, there are a large number of people who are dissatisfied with their situation, just like Yamato and Sakai in the original book, as long as the curse is lifted, they will immediately turn their backs on this dark organization.
And for the rope tree with the Wish Power system, removing the root of the tongue curse of the group is as simple as drinking water and eating.
With this weakness, the rope tree has quietly planted a large number of nails in the roots, and over time the erosion of the roots will gradually expand until the entire root is quietly swallowed up.
From the very beginning, Danzang has fallen behind, and there is no possibility of defeating the rope tree in the future.
After making sure that the rear has been stabilized, the rope tree has not completely relaxed, this time Madara's accidental intervention has caused a lot of impact on his plan layout, in addition to internal worries, there are also external troubles!
He knew that the bloody succession of Mu Dun that he had shown in this battle, as well as the content of the conversation with Madara, would definitely be reported by the investigators of various countries, and the attitude and policy towards Konoha would definitely change after the high-level leaders of various countries saw the information.
But what exactly is this change, is it good or bad for Konoha, and what kind of impact will it have on the Second Ninja World War?
There is no way to know these problems, because the plot has changed, and the details in the original book can no longer be used as a basis for judgment.
At this time, the intelligence of the dark department is particularly important!
As early as the end of the Vortex Country War a few days ago, Rope Tree had already begun to use renegade captives to plant spies in ninja villages in various countries.
Later, Rope took over the post of head of the dark department, and through the cooperation of these spies, he secretly established secret branches in various countries.
Now, a few years later, the intelligence systems of the national sub-stations have basically matured, and now is the time for them to play their role.
So soon, Rope Tree received information on the strategic adjustment of various countries, and even detailed meeting minutes of some high-level ninja villages!
After carefully reading and analyzing a number of pieces of information, Rope Tree has a relatively clear understanding of the current situation, and the reactions of various countries can probably be divided into two types.
After receiving the information, the small and medium-sized countries of various countries basically did not make any changes, and still maintained the previous neutral and friendly relations, which can be summed up as business, and must not be an enemy of Konoha.
For these small countries, Konoha after the first battle of the Vortex Country was already an invincible and powerful ninja village, and they could be easily wiped out, and now Konoha has become stronger, but it doesn't make much difference to them, and it is still a powerful ninja village that cannot be provoked.
As for Madara Uchiha's conspiracy, as well as Konoha plans to unify the ninja world, although these made their hearts tremble, they understood that they were not qualified to meddle at all, anyway, the sky fell and there were tall people on top, so let the four major powers worry about it!
Their small countries are not strong, and they have no ambition to fight for hegemony, they are satisfied with just self-preservation, and they have no ability to meddle in the general trend of the ninja world.
Don't you see the fate of that empty country? Look at the country of rain and the country of bears, which are allied with Konoha again, and now they can actually show off their might on the heads of great powers. This kind of scenery makes them blush.
Therefore, it is too late for small and medium-sized countries to form an alliance with Konoha now, where do they dare to be enemies with it?
As for Konoha having ambitions to dominate the ninja world, aren't these effects afraid of being destroyed in the end?
If the high-level leaders of various countries hear this question, they will definitely scoff, which big country does not have the idea of unification and forbearance? But hundreds of years have passed since the Warring States, has anyone succeeded?
Even the first Hokage and Madara Uchiha, who were established to end the chaos of the Warring States period, failed to do such a thing, so why should they bother? is still the same sentence, when the sky falls, there are naturally tall people on top!
