Perhaps in the original book, because of the weakness of the Thousand Hands clan and the approaching lifespan of the Vortex Mito, the Konoha high-level directly rejected the Vortex Country's request for help, and only after the destruction of the Vortex Tide Village did they send someone to rescue Kushina, a war orphan who is related to Mito, and not only found the successor of the human pillar power, but also had an explanation to Mito.

For the sake of the peace and interests of the entire village, Mito, who was about to die, could only choose to compromise in the face of righteousness.

It is possible that the Thousand Hands once supported the Vortex Country alone in the name of the family, but ultimately failed, and the heavy losses caused by this failed rescue hastened the demise of the Thousand Hands Clan.

In short, from the follow-up plot, it can be inferred that Konoha in the original book must not have chosen to support the country of the vortex, otherwise the Second Ninja World War would not be just a war of the four countries with the country of rain as the core battlefield, but a full-scale war that would affect the entire ninja world.

But now, because of the Thousand Hand Rope Tree Traverser, the strength of the Thousand Hand Clan has not weakened in recent years, but has returned to its heyday.

Because in recent years, the rope tree has successively fused the blood of some henchmen in the clan, and a group of masters of the upper ninja and special upper ninja level have emerged in the Thousand Hands clan, of course, these clansmen have obeyed the orders of the rope tree and kept the secret art of the patriarch's wood escape strictly secret.

Outsiders think that these people are promoted because they already have the qualifications to be ninja. After the Thousand Hands clan had earned a lot of money over the years, they had provided them with sufficient cultivation resources, and with hard practice, they had been able to accumulate a lot of money and be promoted to Shangnin.

Therefore, after seeing the results of the Thousand Hands Clan, the Konoha families of all sizes became more eager for the trade of the consortium. Now the Konoha Foundation has almost monopolized the resource trade of the entire ninja world! Since the branch of the various trade consortia in the Land of Fire was wiped out by the Rope Tree and his party three years ago, due to the heavy losses caused by the rupture of the capital chain, these consortia had to trade with the Konoha Foundation in order to make up for the losses. Under the auspices of Buoult, these forced consortia signed a series of concession contracts, and finally escaped bankruptcy with the trade funds provided by the Konoha consortium. Now they are not so much cooperating with the Konoha Foundation as they are working for Konoha Consortium, most of the profits from resource trade are obtained by the Konoha Foundation, and they are just surviving on leftovers, and it is impossible to recover and regain their former prosperity.

In addition to the clan of the Thousand Hands Clan, the Rope Tree has successively introduced a lot of talents for the Split Family through the use of spell seals in the past three years, so if you add the strength of the Split Family, the strength of the Thousand Hands Clan has basically recovered to its heyday, and the only thing that is lacking is a shadow-level strength of the patriarch, but with the understanding of the Rope Tree by the high-level leaders, they believe that he should be able to reach that level in ten years at most, and his sister Tsunade has now possessed the strength of the elite Shangnin, and it is not far from the shadow level.

Therefore, under these factors, the high-level Konoha did not take the liberty to express their opinions because they were afraid of the thoughts of the Thousand Hands Clan, and were ready to leave the matter to Hokage-sama to decide.

In the silent conference hall, Sarutobi frowned and smoked his pipe silently, and Uzumaki Taketori, who was sitting opposite him, did not open his mouth to urge, he knew that no matter what the result was, Konoha would definitely give an answer today.

Ape Fei Ri is also a little embarrassed now, and he doesn't need to look at him to know the concerns in the hearts of the high-level people. Before you know it, this little disciple of mine has grown to the point where he can influence the village's major decisions. So he looked at the rope tree with a calm face and asked, "Rope tree patriarch, what do you think?"

The eight-year-old rope tree looks like an eleven or twelve-year-old boy because of his good development, and he said his thoughts calmly in the face of the problems of the three generations: "At the beginning of the establishment of the village, I established an alliance with the Vortex Village, and the Uzumaki clan and my Thousand Hands clan are close relatives, and the two clans have been friends for generations, and my grandmother is the princess of the Vortex clan, so I should be in favor of supporting the Vortex clan in public and private!" ”

Hearing the clear statement of the rope tree, Uzumaki Taketori was overjoyed, and although the other Konoha high-level leaders had expected it, they couldn't help but frown secretly, they all knew that with the wisdom of the rope tree, it was impossible not to see the danger and the gains and losses in this, but he still chose to sacrifice the interests of the village because of his personal and family feelings, which somewhat disappointed the high-level people.

Especially Shimura Danzo, although he is a martial arts faction, but it is based on the interests of Konoha, he is not willing to sacrifice the interests of the village because of other countries, so he was the first to speak out: "But in the current situation, if Konoha dares to intervene, it is likely to cause a war, and even be besieged by the entire ninja world, and the daimyo will also reduce his support for Konoha, have you thought about the consequences of all this?"

Rope Tree smiled and looked at Shimura Tuanzang, then turned his head to look at the three generations and the other high-level leaders, before nodding and saying, "What the leader of Tuanzang said is very reasonable, and it is likely to become true, I think everyone present must also think so, right?"

"Not bad." All the high-level officials nodded in acknowledgment in the face of the problem of the rope tree. Although they have some scruples about the Rope Tree and the Thousand Hands Clan and are reluctant to come forward to offend him, they will not even dare to admit their own ideas, let alone cater to him against their will.

Rope Tree laughed playfully: "Of course I have considered what the leader of the group said!" But have you ever thought about what the other ninja villages will think of us if we don't save our only ally in the village?"

Rope Tree paused, and seeing that everyone began to ponder, he continued to ask, "Will anyone be willing to form an alliance with Konoha in the future?" This sentence was addressed to Ape Feiri, who frowned and was silent, and even forgot to smoke his pipe, obviously not thinking about it before.

Rope Tree turned his head to Danzou again and asked, "Will the major ninja villages think that Konoha has weakened after losing two Hokages in a row, so it has become so weak and bulliable?"

As a martial arts faction known for its toughness, Danzo opened his mouth a little embarrassed when he heard Rope Tree's questioning, and finally was speechless.

Rope Tree asked Menyan, Koharu and other high-level officials again: "After this incident, will the ninja villages of various countries live together in peace from now on, or will they happily gain an inch?" Will Konoha become the next country of vortex? When the daimyo knew that using the reduction of funds as a threat could make Konoha abandon his only ally, would he continue to use it as a threat to make Konoha his tool completely in the future? At that time, how will Konoha, who has lost his allies and become isolated, face the enemy who is approaching step by step? Do you strike first and start an unjust war to declare your strength to the ninja world, or do you sit back and wait for the nations to join together to turn us into the next prey? To live or to die? That's a real problem! ”
