Chapter 458: I'm Afraid When Others Are Greedy, I'm Greedy When Others Are Fearful

For the next period of time, the entire ninja world was in chaos, and the diplomatic letters of the four countries of fire, wind, earth, and thunder were flying, and in the shadow building of the ninja village, the fax machine was about to smoke.

Many staff members lamented that the ink cartridges of the original fax machine were really used up one day, and the fax machine that only one or two ninjas would operate in the past, during this time, countless ninjas rushed training and sent or received diplomatic letters at any time.

Not only that, but these four countries have also begun to show their muscles, and more than 20,000 Iwain Shinobi have gathered in Iwakuin Village, and they are constantly moving on the border, blowing up a mountain or building a peak from time to time.

Yunyin Village is not far behind, the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder announced an increase in war allocation, replaced all Yunnin Village with the latest equipment, and began to learn from Yanyin Village, and began to hold military drills on the border.

The village of Shayin, which had just repaid the financial loan, asked the Daimyo of the Land of the Wind for a loan again, and this time the Daimyo of the Land of the Wind was quite generous, without saying anything about the loan, and directly supported the appropriation.

The three generations of the Tsuchikage have negotiated with the three generations of Tsuchikage many times to discuss a peaceful solution, but it seems that both sides are not very satisfied, and in the Tsuchikage building and the newly restored Tsukage building, there is a sound of smashing every day.

In contrast, the behavior of the Fire Nation seems to be much more gentle, Konoha announced that it has entered a state of war reserve, and each ninja village is working at full speed, striving towards the KPI of increasing the production of war readiness materials by 200% set by Sarutobi.

As for the transfer of personnel, Konoha was not as radical as Iwain Village and Yunyin Village, but only increased the deployment of border border ninjas, and at the same time swallowed up the orders that had been interrupted by the other three ninja villages.

At present, Konoha's economy has not been affected by the war crisis, and even every day that this war cloud hangs over the ninja world, Konoha can earn a large amount of commission money.

Konoha's behavior of taking advantage of the fire to rob undoubtedly caused dissatisfaction among the other three ninja villages, but before the problem of human pillar power was resolved, they did not have the energy to pursue Konoha in actual actions, so they could only send more diplomatic letters.

In Konoha Village, Tatsuma, who has already started to go through the review process of the retirement of the Shadow Department, is in the Hokage's office at this time, processing documents, most of which are responses to diplomatic letters, and he handles them very easily.

In addition to being the captain of the Dark Department who is about to retire, he is also a member of the Konoha Administration Department, although everyone else is working on documents in a dedicated office, and he is in the Hokage's office, but no one says much.

Everyone can see that the seats of the four generations of Hokage have been cleaned, so they are waiting for Tatsuma to change his clothes and sit down, and coming to the Hokage's office to work can be regarded as adapting to his working environment in advance.

By the window of the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hizashi was looking into the distance, and the recent events that had happened one after another made him feel a little as the Hokage. Excessive irritation.

From the beginning of the disposal of Lao Zi and Han, to the various responses and preparatory measures, it is actually Chenma who is making decisions, and Ape Fei Ri is trying to be a bystander during this time.

I want to see how Tatsuma will deal with it, and Tatsuma's handling is trampled on his sensitive points.

As a matter that hopes for peace in the ninja world, Tatsuma's decision is really a little difficult for Sarutobi to bear, and every decision of Tatsuma seems to be deliberately stirring up the flames of war.

But judging from past experience, those who stir up the flames of war will definitely not end well, but in this short period of time, under the operation of Tatsuma, there is indeed hope for further development.

The ape that has always been the master and the sun is slashed, and suddenly there is a kind of extravagance that makes this war cloud more tightly shrouded, after all. Konoha's large income during this period of time allowed him to try the beauty of the Delusional Fire Country.

If Konoha is given another period of time, and Konoha traps the customer base transferred during this time, and allows them to change from temporary entrustment to long-term entrustment, then Konoha's income will far exceed that of other great ninja villages, more than one level.

When this money is fed back to Konoha's education, medical care, and ninja derivative industries, ten or twenty years from now, there may not be five major powers in the ninja world, but a superpower, four big countries, and a small country.

Because he thought of this kind of scene, during this time, no matter how incredible the decision Tatsuma made, Ape Fei Ri Slash gritted his teeth and passed.

Hearing the sound of the pen stopping behind him, Sarutobi did not look back, but continued to look at the street market of Konoha from afar, and said with emotion: "The old man is here, looking at the same scenery for decades, and only today did he realize that Konoha also has such a fresh style. ”

"No two painters would paint the same subject unless they were copying, would they?"

Tatsuma replied as he sorted out the reply in his hand, and Sarutobi patted the window edge and said with a smile: "You're right, besides, the one who can only copy is called a painter, and he can't be called a painter." ”

Tatsuma nodded, although he knew that Sarutobi Hizashi didn't look back at him, but he also knew that Sarutobi Hizasaki would catch his movements, Tatsuma asked, "Hokage-sama, do you want to review it again?" ”

"No, you can just arrange it."

For Tatsuma's decision to make completely according to his own will, after this period of time, Ape Fei Ri Slash has been very trusted, not to mention that he is a little afraid to look at it.

Because every glance is a huge test of his heart that has been pacing for more than 50 years, rather than resisting the urge to refute after seeing it, it is better to just let go and let Tatsuma operate.

Seeing that Sarutobi was so relieved, Tatsuma beckoned to Shinnosuke in the dark, and Shinnosuke immediately appeared and saluted Tatsuma directly, as if Tatsuma was his boss.

"Xiao, send these to Lord Luyuan, let him help check it, and send it directly if there is no problem."

"Yes!"

Shinnosuke hurriedly stepped forward, took the documents handed by Tatsuma with both hands, and hurriedly turned around and left, Sarutobi Hiza looked at his son's positive and progressive appearance, and didn't know whether to be proud or should. Disappointed.

Shaking his head, Sarutobi walked to the desk, sat down on the seat that Tatsuma had just vacated, and began to take out his pipe and tobacco, and began to smoke beautifully.

Sure enough, the first puff after work is extraordinarily mellow, even if . He wasn't actually involved in the work, but the taste was just as beautiful.

This time, Tatsuma came to the window, although there was only second-hand smoke, there was no way to bring harm to his body, but. If you don't like it, you don't like it, there's no need to endure it.

Ape Fei Ri smoked a cigarette and asked, "Chenma, the old man actually has a question, I can't figure it out after thinking about it for several days, can you answer it for the old man?" ”

"Hokage-sama, please speak."

"Are you really not afraid that our Konoha has recently acted aggressively and harmed other ninja villages, forcing them to start a war?"

Sarutobi looked at Tatsuma, he knew that Tatsuma must know this, but why wasn't Tatsuma worried?

Tatsuma shrugged his shoulders and said calmly, "Actually, causing a war is my goal. ”

Ape Fei Ri's face changed, and he was almost about to question, but he still endured it and continued to look at Tatsuma, who also explained:

"Mankind's desire for war is actually like the water in a reservoir, which rises and falls in the reservoir during the wet and dry seasons, and seems to be very controllable.

However, one of the laws of nature is that there is no law in nature, and an unexpected typhoon and heavy rain may cause the water surface in the reservoir to rise to the danger zone.

And the way to solve it is nothing more than to build a high dam, or. Opening the floodgates and discharging floods, both have pros and cons.

Building a high dam can allow the water surface to have more room to rise and not overflow, but . There will also be more and more water, and once it pours, it will be more powerful, even destroying the entire downstream.

The opening of the flood gates, in a short period of time, will bring some threats to the downstream, but these threats are controllable, and the water level can always be within a safe range.

I don't like the feeling of being in debt, and it's the same with war, because I'm only capable of dealing with the water in the original reservoir, and once the dam is raised and more water accumulates, I won't be able to solve it, so I'll avoid it. ”

After Tatsuma finished speaking, Sarutobi nodded his head, but after Tatsuma explained this, he suddenly felt that his previous thoughts seemed to be a little wrong.

After all, he is the kind of person who advocates the construction of high dams, as long as there is no war at the moment, even if it is compromised, it does not seem unacceptable, but when did he have this idea?

It seems that the self ten years ago was not like this, and the self ten years ago was also like Chenma, who had the heart to take the initiative to start a war, and ten years was enough for him to become old?

Suddenly figured this out, Sarufei Rizap suddenly felt that Tatsuma's decision-making during this time didn't seem to be so incomprehensible, although he was more radical than when he was young, but now Tatsuma, already Konoha, also has the confidence to make him more radical.

"You have a point, the contradictions between the countries in the ninja world are increasing day by day, maybe it is a better choice to trigger this war early, so that the ninja villages of all countries can start and end before they complete the complete and full combat preparations."

Rarely, Sarutobi agreed with Tatsuma's radical idea, but he still comforted: "But there is no need for others to know about our conversation today. ”

"I understand, Hokage-sama, but I don't need to hold back and hide it from you, do I?"

Tatsuma said with a smile, Ape Fei Sun Chop is also a show of face, preference is very unfair to other people, but perhaps only preference can be exchanged for the trust that Tatsuma has now.

No loss.

Tatsuma also learned to look into the distance from Ape Flying Sun, but what he was thinking about was different from what Sarutobi was thinking about standing in this position, Sarufei was looking at the changes in Konoha and Tatsuma was. Looking at the future of the ninja world.

There is no way to avoid the third ninja war, and the fuse that triggers the war, the sooner it is lit, the better, if the scorpion does not ignite the fuse, Tatsuma is wondering if he needs to be the arsonist.
