"Tuanzang? He has always been mercenary, but he is against it? ”

Orochimaru raised his eyebrows, and then smiled, "This guy is also from the martial arts faction." ”

Unlike the old man who accepted his decay and turned to civilian politics, Danzang still spent a lot of time improving his strength, not to mention ninjutsu cultivation, he also pinned his hopes on using the first generation of cells to regain his youth.

And Zhuan Koharu and Mito Menyan are far inferior to these two, looking like they have lost their eyes to power, but they forget that their qualifications were fought on the battlefield back then.

Orochimaru licked his lips, "Two old guys, for some interests, put on such an unbearable appearance, it's really ......"

"You can't say that, each has its own position."

On the side, the lantern god floating in the air made a rare distinction for the two advisory elders, and said with a smile,

"You fight on the battlefield, they operate in the village, and the things they see are naturally different depending on the location, in their eyes, Konoha is not just a mercenary, but also a commercial organization that sells labor, and it is to be credible."

Orochimaru frowned, "I know this......

"You don't know enough, you're standing too high, and looking down is a little distorted."

"After all, you are Konoha Sannin, your strength is extraordinary, and the biggest trouble you have encountered since you were a child is that war has deprived you of your relatives and friends, you can't know everything, and you can't live forever."

The lamp god smiled, "But the world is peaceful, omniscient, and eternal...... These goals are equally difficult for anyone."

"In addition, the troubles you encounter can be solved by hard work, so you 'believe in striking iron and hardening yourself', thinking that as long as you improve yourself, you can solve all problems."

"Of course, there is no problem with improving your own abilities, but this is actually a bit one-sided...... Ordinary ninjas can't do that, and those merchants have their own choices."

"For example, if the merchants who originally posted the mercenary assignment in Konoha don't come and choose another ninja village, what can you do?"

"Are you going to use illusion to control them, or are you going to use violence to coerce them and kill his whole family if you don't come?"

Orochimaru was silent.

Illusion control, violent coercion...... It's not like no one has ever done this, but only those small ninja villages or wandering ninjas who can't get on the table will use this method.

It's impossible for Konoha to do this, and once a mistake is exposed, it's a big scandal.

At that time, the merchants of their own country will not be mentioned for the time being, and there will be no possibility of merchants from other countries coming back.

It's going to be a hassle, and you know, hiring tasks can make up a huge portion of Konoha's income.

Force is a great deterrent when it is not used, but force alone has the opposite effect.

Of course, this can all be attributed to a lack of ability.

Controlling one person will cause problems, but it is good to control them all, it is not enough to coerce a business, but it is also possible to solve the problem by threatening them together with the people who can protect them, and killing them all if they do not come.

This is indeed a direction to work towards.

Orochimaru licked his lips, the light god was not wrong about him, he was familiar with and liked this method.

Thinking of this, he suddenly understood Madara Uchiha's thinking when he formulated the 'Eye of the Moon' plan.

- Other people's thoughts have nothing to do with me, they don't listen to me just because I'm not strong enough, or because I'm not ruthless enough.

The powerhouse who is as famous as the original Hokage is also an absolutely confident master, and he is even more extreme than himself.

But this kind of behavior is properly a psychotic behavior.

"Looks like you've got some understanding."

The lamp god raised his eyebrows, "Moreover, the idea of 'the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys' is actually very simple, doing business, reputation is the most important, just like the world before me, a certain treasure, a certain East ......."

"Back then, a certain east's business was thriving, but their boss made some life style problems, and as a result, he was framed, and then ah......"

「…… Now the situation in the ninja world is the same, not only Konoha is a ninja village, but others, like Yunyin and Iwain...... Even many small ninja villages are also good choices."

"Why take the risk of choosing a ninja village with a bad reputation."

"Reputation is sometimes more important than competence and quality, especially when it comes to comparison."

Orochimaru's face changed for a while, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

No one had ever told him about these things, or someone had said about them, and then he forgot about them, and he had more important things and didn't take them seriously.

But he will listen to the words of the lamp god, and he will also think.

And thinking about it along this line, it seems that the scruples of turning to Koharu and Mito Menyan are not unreasonable.

For the sake of Konoha's reputation, it seems that sacrificing a day difference is not unacceptable, and it is not forced by the Hokage.

Even if the so-called 'life for life' is very detrimental to the prestige of the village, they are likely to think that this prestige is enough.

Konoha will not lose an elite upper ninja instead of the most powerful ninja village in the ninja world.

"This ...... It's kind of bad. ”

Orochimaru exhaled white gas, and the expression on his face was grim, but he understood the crux of the problem.

Unlike him, Koharu and Mito Menyan consider the interests of the middle and lower class ninjas in the village, they occupy the largest proportion of Konoha ninjas, and they also digest most of the tasks, but they do not have such a resounding name as 'Azure Mengmeng' and 'Konoha Three Ninja'.

If the village's reputation declines, they will be the ones who will be affected the most.

And once the ecology of the middle and lower class ninjas to get paid is destroyed, then in the long run, the high-level ninjas who are based on it will also collapse.

It may not be that serious, but it will also show the atmosphere of decay like the Sand Hidden Village.

In comparison, the benefits promised in the previous agreement seem to be insignificant.

Jiraiya, who was waiting on the side, saw Orochimaru speak, and his heart moved, "Do you have any good ideas?" ”

Orochimaru shook his head, but his eyes looked at the light god in the sky, "I always felt that something was wrong, how could Konoha have so many powerful ninjas, how could he be so constrained?"

Yes, constraints, the two advisor elders would rather lose the prestige of the village than save the reputation, it is the choice made under the pressure of that invisible constraint.

"Well, maybe this should be said to be the cauldron of the original Hokage?"

The lamp god rubbed his chin and raised his eyebrows slightly,

"He created the model of 'ninja village', which gathers nine out of nine ninjas in the country, which completely distinguishes ninjas from ordinary people."

"But both ninjas and ordinary people have to eat, and the former eats a little more."

"Ninjas don't give birth, they have to live on ordinary people, they seem to be superior, but they can't really enslave them, so it's normal to suffer some constraints under the surface."

Orochimaru played with the wine glass in his hand, silently digesting what the lamp god said.

After a while, he asked with his thoughts, "How do you get rid of these shackles?"

Konoha's ninja group is his basic plate, and it is in his interest to make this leek field grow better and faster.

Although he had not yet found a suitable harvesting method, he had a hunch that he would soon use these people.

"It's actually quite simple."

The Lamp God smiled, "As long as those ordinary people are no longer the Land of Fire, but civilians belonging to Konoha."
