Chapter 36: Declaration

……………………

It was a discussion in the winter, and Kaguya dismissed the idea of Tsukiyo.

"Why doesn't it work?"

"Because it's not enough."

"I don't understand."

Kaguya looked at the sea in the distance, and he pointed to the choppy coastline and said, "You see, the people's hearts are like the sea, which is calm on weekdays, but once it gets angry, it is a storm and rain, and it can set off a huge tsunami to drown everything." ”

"If you want to change the fate of the Uchiha, you have to learn to harness the power of the people's hearts. And if you want to take advantage of the people's hearts, you have to gain their trust. ”

"I don't understand how the Uchiha can gain the trust of the people, just like you just denied the plan of the police force and it is impossible to get much popular support, why do you dare to be so sure that my approach will fail, I haven't even tried it yet!"

Yue Yong shouted excitedly, the girl's voice full of anxiety.

Kaguya turned his head and said with a serious expression.

"Because it's not enough, you don't look far enough, you don't see enough, and most importantly, your heart doesn't really contain those Konoha people. All your practices and ideas are based on the interests of one family, which is why it seems narrow and ridiculous. ”

"Kaguya!!"

"Don't be angry, I'm just saying the facts, the reform of the police force is just a glass of water, but it can't save the burning fire. But if you can find a way to put these people in front of you ...... If you take this sea for your own use and let them advance and retreat with you, then this fire will be extinguished. ”

"I ......"

"The reform of the police force is not enough, at best, the interests of the Uchiha clan are temporarily protected."

"Yueyong, your thinking is right, but it needs to be a little more extensive. If the interests of the people and the interests of the Uchiha can be tied together, then the situation will really be opened. Don't keep an eye on the Uchiha, look at the helpless civilians in the village, and the ninjas who are born from commoners and have no power behind them. ”

"These people are often the lowest cannon fodder, the ninjas with the highest mortality rate on the battlefield. You have to find a way to win them over and make their hearts stand with yours! Because they are the hope of the Uchiha. ”

"Yueyong, if you really want to save the Uchiha? Then help them first. ”

………………

Back to real time.

"Kaguya, you're right."

"I was really short-sighted, focusing on the future of the family and ignoring the importance of creating a hub with the people if we want to thrive in this village. There is nothing in the world stronger than a coalition of interests, and the Uchiha has more than just a police force to leave behind...... There are also doors and ideas that were once and now closed. ”

Yue Yong slowly closed her eyes and said.

- In the next second, her whole body erupted with a blinding light.

The right hand burst into thunder like a thousand birds singing in unison.

If you want to get something, you have to pay what you want, and if you want the people's heart, you have to exchange it for money.

The Uchiha is not short of money, what is lacking is the determination to change!

- Boom!

The sound of an explosion like thunder echoed in the sky above the arena, causing all the voices of argument to dissipate at once, successfully focusing everyone's attention on Yue Yong on the field again.

No, at this time, it was not only Yueyong alone in the venue, but other Uchiha also appeared.

They stood neatly behind Yue Yong, not so much as to show support, but to act as a firm force guard.

“……”

White Fang had no intention of stopping him, as his position was originally neutral, and he had little interest in the village's struggle for power. But perhaps it was because he ignored his own importance and was not biased enough towards the relationship between the Hokage that he committed suicide in the later stage.

"What, what's wrong? Did it thunder? ”

"No, it's that little girl's Thunder Ninjutsu, so strong fluctuating energy."

"Do you want to do something more?"

"Uchiha!!"

Whether it's anger or any other emotion.

At this time, Yueyong's every move in the field really attracted everyone's attention, especially after the other party announced the news of the reform of the police force, many civilian ninjas were actually moved.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Yue Yong, including the three generations and others, and they couldn't help but want to see what else she could do at this time.

"Do what you want, Yueyong."

"You are the absolute protagonist today."

Kaguya glanced at the shadows and roots that appeared on the high platform, and smiled slightly.

The figure faded into the shadows.

……………………

Yue Yong, who attracted everyone's attention, stood on the yellow-brown ground and opened her arms towards the spectators in the stands.

She spoke with emotion, as if she had practiced countless times.

"Ladies and gentlemen, all the humble people who support Konoha Village here, your existence is like a tree that is densely decorated with a tree called Konoha on the canopy, but it continues to wither every time autumn and winter come."

"Civilians and ninjas who grew up in an unfair environment but took on the hardest work, who were wantonly harvested by the enemy on the battlefield and couldn't even save their corpses, who worked very hard but never got ahead, and who wanted to become stronger but were suppressed by reality to the point that they were bruised all over their bodies."

"You are the most ordinary existence in the village, and the most inconspicuous existence."

"But even so, no one can deny that you are the pillar of the entire Konoha Village! It is the screw that keeps the huge machine running, and although one or two may be inconspicuous, it is because of the existence of all of you that this village can continue to function normally, hard and admirable people. ”

"Here we of the Uchiha clan would like to pay our utmost respect to you."

At this time, facing the entire silent arena, Yue Yong lowered her proud head for the first time in front of everyone, and bowed to everyone around her.

At this time, no one spoke, no one took a stand.

Even the people who had the loudest opposition before just listened quietly with a cold face but without saying a word. And there were thousands of people like him here, and these people didn't know what Yue Yong wanted to do, but they felt that her tone was full of sincerity, and most importantly, what she said was very appetizing to those present.

"Konoha is a village created by the joint efforts of the Uchiha and Senju."

Yue Yong said to everyone with a sincere face, her movements were so gentle.

"For the Uchiha, Konoha is his own child, a continuation of flesh and blood and a symbol of spirit."

"And you, who support the bottom of this village, are our Uchiha children just like Konoha himself. And no matter what kind of gossip and rumors it is, it can't cut the blood bond between Uchiha and Konoha. ”

"And are there parents in this world who can watch their children fall on the battlefield covered in blood, but still be indifferent? Not to mention that you are so good at protecting Konoha and completing your mission. Even if he knew that he was not the enemy's opponent, he still resolutely went to the battlefield to fight the enemy, just to protect the Konoha behind him. ”

"This spirit and will to sacrifice oneself is a symbol of pride and purity."

"So I can assert that all of the people here are respectable, proud, and pure Konoha people."

"However, in contrast, although you have made so many sacrifices for Konoha, the village has far less to offer you. The lowest educational resources, the worst distribution of supplies, and the most dangerous fronts leave you with very few skills to patrol. ”

"All of you here - how many times have you witnessed the death of your comrades?"

The girl's emotional pathos made some ninjas who had just experienced life and death parting red-eyed, and they clenched their fists, unconsciously recalling what they had encountered on the battlefield.
