"Hokage-sama! Those security guards aren't ninjas at all, are they? Isn't it wrong to involve them in preservation operations? ”

This is an inquiry from the Daimyo's messenger in the Hokage's office, in order to prove the unreasonableness of the preservation action initiated by Konoha, so as to prove that what Konoha did was wrong and should not be done, so why don't you stop it quickly!

And in response, Orochimaru responded with a smile.

"I don't think there's any irrationality in this operation, Mr. Taino, you should also know that ninjas often have to deal with all kinds of complicated situations in the course of their missions, so they can't be forced to stick to rigid dogmas, and they must be given more flexibility to complete the tasks they accept. In this process, ninjas tend to assess the situation and seek the help of a collaborator. And these security guards are the ones that the ninjas are asking for help from, and I think you've hired ninjas too, so you should be aware of the process and shouldn't be too surprised. ”

"But there are too many collaborators!"

"After all, this is a large-scale mission in cooperation with the United Security Company, and there are many ninjas involved, so it is natural that there will be a little more collaborators who need to ask for help."

"Okay, Hokage-sama, what you said does make sense, but what about after the mission is over? Do we need so many collaborators?! ”

"Mr. Taino, please calm down." Orochimaru still has a kind smile and is friendly.

His hand searched for his desk, and soon he found a document.

"It's just an explanation of your question, but in fact, we in Konoha have a more comprehensive consideration for the security staff. For the security staff, while being employed by the United Security Company, we in Konoha were also issued a certificate of qualification as a 'Reserve Ninja'. ”

Taino shuddered slightly, he took the document handed over by the fifth generation Hokage and read it carefully, it was indeed written on it that these so-called security personnel who were so-called employed by the United Security Company would be certified by Konoha and equivalent to 'reserve ninjas'.

And for Konoha Ninja Village, there is indeed no restriction on them recruiting reserve ninjas.

After all, I never thought that a ninja village would recruit so many ordinary people as reserve ninjas, you must know that ordinary reserve ninjas refer to the students of the ninja school!

The gap between the students in the ninja school and the ordinary people is still very large.

But in the absence of clear regulations, what kind of strong accusations can Konoha make when he plays such a trick?

"However, reserve ninjas should not take on the mission."

"That's common sense." Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly: "And in fact, in unconventional times, all the Great Ninja Villages have had precedents of mobilizing reserve ninjas to accept missions, such as the Ninja World War. ”

“……”

"The daimyo and the ministers have never objected to this. Since there is such a precedent, it is naturally reasonable for us in Konoha to mobilize reserve ninjas to carry out such a large-scale mission. ”

“……”

Is this the bitter fruit of watching from the sidelines?

At the beginning, I didn't care about the ninja fighting to the death, after all, it was those ninjas who died, even if it was a child among the ninjas.

But now, this kind of unreasonableness, after all, has also demonstrated its rationality for the unreasonable things that Orochimaru did.

It is precisely because there are too many fallacies and mistakes in this world that there are all kinds of distortions in the order of the world.

Konoha was able to follow this aberrant rule, bypassing the orthodox government of the Fire Nation, and unfolding this originally unexpected, carefully argued, but plausible development.

Taino only felt a wave of weakness now.

But he was the messenger of the Daimyo, and he still had to forcibly defend himself.

"Hokage-sama, some of the past things, I think they are all in the past, we should move forward, so all the things in the past are unreasonable, we think ......"

"yes, some of the things of the past, have passed. But as latecomers, we need to build on the past and usher in a better future. Otherwise, wouldn't all those sacrifices in the past be in vain? What do you think? Mr. Ono. ”

“…… Can't really be accommodating? ”

The corners of Orochimaru's mouth curled.

"You are representing the Daimyo, and I should hope that you can make His Royal Highness the Daimyo accommodating."

“……”

In the end, the messenger of the daimyo left in despair.

After the daimyo messenger left, three generations came from the shadows.

That's right, he deliberately hid in the shadows, after all, if the daimyo envoy saw him and couldn't ask for Orochimaru, then he would turn his head and ask for his head.

That's too much trouble, so it's better to hide and avoid such trouble.

The cigarette was lit again, and the three generations smoked.

He sat down next to Orochimaru, and after a little puff, he put down his cigarette stick.

"Some of the big businessmen who cooperate with us Konoha must be very dissatisfied at this time."

"They're dogs." Orochimaru picked up a document and said while looking at it, "I'm just giving them a choice, whether to continue to be the minister's dog or our Konoha dog." As a dog in Konoha, you have to abide by the rules set by Konoha, which will make them sacrifice a lot, but in the same way, they will also get a lot. They can't be as unscrupulous as they used to be, but they can also reap stability in a stable and safe discipline. ”

The three generations thought about this for a moment and nodded slightly.

He also has the memory of seeing a lot of tasks, of course, he knows that in this twisted and chaotic world, those businessmen who have made a fortune will also have to face the exploitation of the ministers behind them, the black eating black of their peers, or all kinds of vendettas, and even unjustified disasters.

That's one of the reasons why they're desperate for stability, too.

Sacrificing a part of the benefits in exchange for stability, and at the same time making better money.

These businessmen are smart people, and they know what to choose.

After all, seeing that Konoha is indeed very disciplined, then they want Konoha to continue to talk about the rules, and they don't want Konoha to mess around.

Finally, Orochimaru put down the paperwork, picked up the pen and signed it.

After signing, he looked up.

"Teacher, if you come to me, don't you have anything to do?"

"Of course there is, I want to witness the new development of Konoha, from the current point of view, it is enough to make me feel very relieved."

"So, aren't you willing to get involved in Konoha's new development? I believe in Mitomon seniors and Zhuanne-senpai, and I hope that you can work with them to make more use of light and heat for the future development of Konoha. ”

"I'm old." The three generations shook their heads with sighs.

"As long as I can witness the progress of my juniors, I am satisfied."

“……”

Orochimaru smiled and buried his head.
