Chapter XXII Recommendations
Konoha Village.
Bo Feng Shuimon may be the youngest and most handsome Hokage in the history of the Fire Nation, however, he is not a mature politician.
For Game of Thrones, he is far from being as scheming as the three generations of Hokage apes and Shimura Danzo.
Because he led Konoha Village to win the third battle, the storm water gate was regarded as a hero by the villagers of Konoha Village. Coupled with his handsome appearance, he is still very popular among civilian ninjas.
It's just that although Bo Feng Shuimen has great prestige, it does not have the right to match this prestige. In the day-to-day administration of Konoha Village, the four generations of Hokage were especially influenced by the three advisors, including Shimura Danzo.
Of course, for all this, Watergate did not have a trace of dissatisfaction, but asked for advice attentively.
At this moment, in the conference room of the Hokage Building, Bo Fengshui Sect General invited all three advisors over.
"Hokage-sama, why did you call us all here?"
The third advisor walked into the conference room, and as soon as he sat down, he asked after turning to bed.
"That's right, go to bed. In the past few days, the dark department has collected some information one after another. It shows that the three ninja villages of the Land of Wind, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Thunder have a tendency to form alliances, while the Kishimi of the Land of Water has an ambiguous attitude. I'd like to ask three seniors about this! ”
Mito Menyan and Koharu looked at each other and asked, "Has Hokage-sama asked about this matter for three generations?" ”
Shuimen nodded and said, "I've asked three generations now, and he said let me consult the advisory group first!" ”
"And what does Hokage-sama mean?"
"In my opinion, the alliance of these three ninja villages is naturally not good for us Konoha. However, after all, I have just taken office and don't know much about international affairs, so I would like to ask the opinions of several seniors on how to destroy the alliance of interests between these three ninja villages! ”
With a gentle smile, easy-going temper, and outstanding talents, I have to say that Bo Feng Shuimon is a good Hokage. But this is also the case, Shimura Danzo is very unhappy.
Because, no matter how good Bo Feng Shui Men is, he is also the disciple of the ape flying sun, not his.
Shimura Danzou has been competing with Sarutobi all his life, starting from learning art under the second Hokage Thousand Hands, to the later competition for the position of Hokage, and then to the choice of the future development of the village.
The choices of the two people are never the same, but Shimura Danzou is always defeated. Ape Fei Sun has always lived in the light, but he can only hide in the shadows.
Even now, among the apprentices and grandchildren of the Ape Flying Sun, all of them are famous in the ninja world. And he, on the other hand, is nothing.
Koharu wanted to speak, but Shimura Tunzo interrupted her in advance, and his tone was very stiff.
"The entanglement between the various ninja villages is not so simple, it is the blood feud left by the decades of fighting between the villages since the implementation of the system of one country and one village. After three battles, we Konoha won alone. It is indeed a feasible strategy for these villages to unite, but it is not so simple. The interests are enough for them to unite, but they can also make them turn their faces, and all they need is a little means! ”
"Means?"
Looking at Bo Feng Shuimen's inquiring eyes, that kind of humble eyes for advice, Shimura Danzou didn't feel a light snort.
"As a Hokage, you don't just need to be able to win on the battlefield, and the game after the battlefield is sometimes more dangerous."
"That's what Danzang senior said!"
Bo Feng Shuimen said very attentively.
"Compared to the Land of Fire, the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind are quite barren. A large part of the food that their country gives to Ninja Village has to be purchased from abroad. And the land of rich birds is their choice. The land of birds has mild temperatures and is famous as a food producing area. In the hands of the great merchant Jiuzong, there is a large amount of grain at this moment, enough for the two ninja villages and their people to survive the food shortage since the third war. But if some of this food is destroyed, only the amount needed by one country is left, or even less. And what happens to another country that can't find another source of food for a short period of time? ”
"But isn't this too cruel for the people of the other two countries?"
Although he was born in the wealthy Fire Country, Bo Feng Shuimen, who was born as a commoner, realized the importance of food early on. Even in the Land of Fire, once the war began, they were hungry and full. Tuan Zang's approach made Bo Feng Shuimen a little unacceptable emotionally.
"Stupid!"
Looking at such an unenlightened wave of wind and water, Shimura Tuanzang scolded angrily, picked up his crutches, turned around and left.
Mito Menyan and Koharu took a look at it, and said about the somewhat awkward atmosphere, "Hokage-sama, Danzo's temper is not good, but his suggestion is quite constructive. Think about it! The shadows are even the roots, ready to be dispatched at any time! ”
As the sun set, Mizumon did not return to his home after a day's work, but turned to Sarufei's mansion.
In front of the pond where the water is not alarming, Ape Feiri took an old chair and lay on it, beside him a pot of fine tea brought from the country of tea, and was leisurely enjoying the good time of retirement.
"Is it Watergate?"
Ape Fei didn't look back, just listening to the footsteps, he knew that it was the water gate.
"Yes, three generations."
"Your footsteps are a little heavy. What, didn't it go well? ”
"No, the three seniors of the advisory group gave quite good advice, just...."
Mizumon voiced his concerns, but Ape Fei sat up unhurriedly and beckoned Mizumon to him.
Watergate sat in front of Ape Fei and listened to him say, "I know what you think?" But you have to understand one thing, once the war starts, no one is innocent, from the daimyo, to us ninjas or samurai, to ordinary civilians! Life and death on the battlefield, hatred or hatred! All of this should not have been involved in the aftermath of the war. But sometimes, the lines of war are blurred! What we can protect, apart from Konoha, is actually quite limited. ”
Facing his own apprentices, the three generations of Hokage Ape Flying Sun taught tirelessly. As the sun set brightened, Ape Fei's somewhat wrinkled face was filled with patience and peace.
"I see!"
Bo Fengshuimen nodded, and the emotions in his heart gradually calmed down.
"And....!"
Watergate chatted with Ape Fei for a while, it was getting dark, and when he was about to leave, Ape Fei stopped him.
"I have no objection to their opinions, but some details still need to be revised."
"What, three generations?"
"The ninja who went to destroy the food didn't have to be our Konoha people. The third war has just ended, and there is a shortage of food everywhere except for us Konoha, do you understand? ”
The setting sun dissipated, and darkness began to envelop the land. With the last rays of light, the ape flew up and slowly turned his head.
Ape Fei's face was shrouded in shadows, making it difficult for Mizuto to see the expression on his face. faded away from the dazzling light, and the ape flew at this moment, and the cold made the water gate a little unrecognizable.
