Red sand dust

Except for a very small number of people who have an overly strong desire for power or have unrealistic ambitions, most ninjas don't like to bury themselves in documents, deal with trivial matters, or be a rubber stamp.

The education of ninja schools was not originally intended to cultivate politicians, but to mass-produce ninjas who were proficient in combat and a certain professional skill.

True geniuses generally have the ability to draw parallels, and their qualifications in ninjutsu are excellent, and they are not far behind in other fields. As long as they are willing to calm down and become a qualified bureaucrat, it is basically not a problem.

Just like Hatake Kakashi, whether he is the current leader of the Quick Rescue Team or the future Hokage Sixth Generation, he actually does a good job, but this does not affect his mentality of staying away from these troubles at all.

It is not a problem for a man to hold power in his hands while he is still alive, but taking power is not to be a servant of the people, but to enjoy the pleasure of controlling the destiny of others, or the sense of accomplishment that the world revolves around him.

Most people actually have the instinct to be a foolish king, and very few can truly be self-denial and serve the public. Kakashi Hatake has the ability to be a good leader, but when he wants the freedom and freedom of an ordinary jounin, he margin.

After hurriedly handing over the work to Daimaru, without much perfunctory, the famous copy ninja left in a hurry to enjoy his rare vacation.

The headquarters of the Rescue Team is located in the northeast corner of Konoha Village, far away from residential areas and commercial areas. It is surrounded by workshop areas such as water plants and thermal power stations. There is an unpleasant smell of mild pollution in the air. Especially the adjacent rough processing base for medicinal materials is a place where people stay away from each other. Staying here for a long time will make your throat slightly uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the pollution is not serious, and it’s okay once you get used to it.

I have been to Konoha Village several times before, but I have never been to this relatively remote place. Accompanied by a guide, Daimaru walked around and didn't find many valuable things, but...

That must be the old residence of the Uchiha family. It's really dilapidated! 』

Seven or eight years have passed since the night of genocide. The last orphan, Uchiha Sasuke, has also defected for almost three years. Due to certain considerations, Konoha Village has not taken back this residential area, but all valuable things in it have been taken back. It has been plundered, leaving only the dusty and elegant houses that have not been cleaned, and the mottled walls, which still show how prosperous the families that dominated this place were in the past.

In Konoha Village, which is prosperous all year round, this small area is like a scar on Konoha Village. People don't want to mention it, but they can't get rid of it. They just let it rot here.

A good piece of land was wasted...

Although the location is a bit out of the way, the area is large and it is a well-developed mature land that can be restored to life with a little tidying up.

The accompanying Konoha ninjas were not idiots who knew nothing. They did not agree with Daimaru's sentiments and kept focused on taking Daimaru away from the place.

Humiliation, embarrassment, and maybe a little bit of shame, no matter what, it is not a glorious thing to expose a family scandal.

In fact, Daimaru didn't want to poke the scar, but had a special reason.

Previously, I asked Koyamabuki to open up a secret place in Konoha Village to place a few filthy earth bodies. After Nagato attacked Konoha Village, he could use the benefits of a wide range of forbidden arts, heretics, and reincarnation. .

Although now because of Daimaru's actions, future development may not proceed as expected, but as long as the general trend does not change, some details are not enough to completely reverse the fate of the ninja world.

Everything is ready, just waiting for Orochimaru to be bitten by Uchiha Sasuke and go to divide the inheritance. 』

Half a day later, when the working hours were over, Daimaru and the gravel jounin who had been dealing with the Leaf Village for a long time found a secluded place to discuss the next plan.

As the new leader of the Rescue Team, Daimaru proposed that the Sand Gravel Jonin be the deputy commander to act as the deputy commander in daily affairs. In more than two years, he became a familiar face, his ability was recognized, and he made many achievements. , so no one objected. As for the personal secretary, let Yuno, one of the first three cadres of the air combat unit who followed Daimaru, give it a try.

In addition, there are two deputy secretaries, namely Iwa ninja Kurotsuchi and Konoha ninja Nara Shikamaru.

The granddaughter of the Third Tsuchikage has good abilities and a prominent family background; Shikamaru Nara is a well-known and smart ninja with a good brain. He is now in charge of the overall design of this year's Chunin Exam and the examiner of the first test.

The two young deputy secretaries are also reassuring.

Daimaru, you asked me to be the secretary-general. Although I feel a little uneasy, I will do my best, but Yuno is too young. Is it inappropriate to designate her as your personal secretary?

After drinking a few glasses of draft beer, the gravel jounin asked Daimaru carelessly.

Are you still worried that there is something wrong with the master and apprentice leading the 'quick rescue team'?

Daimaru chuckled lightly,

Don't worry, senior. I'm just a hand-off shopkeeper here to be the mascot. All matters are up to you. If you really can't handle it, leave it to me...

That's good. With you taking care of things, there should be no problem...

What are you shutting down...

Daimaru smiled,

I'm too lazy to take care of these nonsense. It's difficult for the 'Quick Rescue Team' to handle, so I'll submit an application and convene a Five Shadows Conference to decide...

The final decision will never be taken. Sitting in this position is too conspicuous. No matter what you do, you will not satisfy everyone. Anyway, the basic order of the Relief Team has been established, and there are experienced The management of the Gravel Jounin should not be a big problem, plus the nominal representative of the leader - Yuno, despite her young age, is also a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing. She is not required to do practical things, as long as she smoothes the relationship between the characters.

Isn't this too hasty? Let the Five Shadows Conference discuss a trivial matter. I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future...

After hearing the worries of the gravel jounin, Daimaru sneered:

Today's 'Quick Rescue Team' is not only an international organization that deals with tailed beast matters, but also a vanity fair for all parties to try and test. You can understand it if you look at the two deputy secretaries, one an Iwa ninja and the other a Konoha ninja... …”

Although Yun Ninja was very interested in getting involved, he didn't want to invest too much energy, and he wanted to get more benefits, but there was no such thing as such a good thing. None of the several great ninja villages agreed.

Kirigakure Village is too weak to be on this big stage. Not to mention the main role, it can't even choose a supporting role. It is better to quit altogether in exchange for other benefits and support, such as joining forces with Sand Ninja, and in certain matters. Advance and retreat together to avoid being coerced by Konoha Village and losing the initiative.

The Iwagakure Village originally didn't want to get involved too deeply, but unfortunately the five-tailed jinchuriki Han had been captured by the Akatsuki organization, and the four-tailed jinchuriki Lao Zi was forced to stay in Konoha Village as a meat ticket, so he had to join forces. Invest heavily to show sincerity, lest ownership of the last tailed beast be taken away from you.

In the past, there was only one commander and a few officers, and they were very efficient. Now the manpower has expanded and the overall strength is stronger. However, the entire 'rapid aid team' has also become bloated. In the top-level design, there are four more standing secretaries who hold real power. That’s proof…”

The more people talking, the less likely it is to reach an agreement. It is inevitable that people will talk too much and have mixed thoughts.

And to be honest, at this point in time, no matter how hard we try, whether it is the Relief Team or the Sniper Team, they cannot change the general trend.

So, you are just here to show off, rather than trying to achieve something like Hatake Kakashi?

This is Konoha Village, what can we do?

Daimaru smiled and shook his head,

It's just the result of the exchange of interests! Senior, you are good at practical things and may not be too sensitive to the reasons for changes in power! Although the headquarters of the 'Rescue Team' and the 'Sniper Team' are both in the Country of Fire, they are not any ninja village. The forces under its jurisdiction are only responsible for the Five Shadows Conference. They were born because they have specific needs and tasks to be completed. But in fact, doing things is secondary. Fighting for power, demonstrating influence, and exporting soft and hard strength and values ​​are the top priority. The weight...

No matter in the past life or in this life, there is no exception. An international organization that is too democratic will basically be unable to accomplish anything without strong enforcement.

The changes in the top management of the Quick Rescue Team reflect the power structure of the ninja world to a certain extent. Konoha Village is firmly on the Diaoyutai, but its right to speak has been impacted, but they have the ability to overturn the table, and only they have it.

The Sand Ninja and the Mist Ninja recognized the leadership authority of Konoha Village, but they did not want to be too deeply affected. The Iwa Ninja fell into a serious drought and obviously lacked stamina.

As for the Kumo ninja, they still ignored everyone except the Leaf Village, and were always ready to challenge the boss and take the position themselves.

Because they grasp the righteousness authorized by the Five Kage Conference, the Rescue Team and Sniper Team are still strongly restricted by the major ninja villages, but they also have a certain ability to borrow strength to resist.

To put it bluntly, this is a literary fight recognized by the Five Kage. It is more formal and a step forward than the so-called peacetime war in the Joint Chunin Examination, but it is still the same in essence, allowing all major ninja villages to Keep your eyes open and don't misjudge the situation and provoke unnecessary wars. If anyone disobeys the rules, he will probably be boycotted unanimously.

The established rules, no matter whether everyone is unhappy or not, must abide by and play together. If one day this routine cannot continue and literary fighting collapses, the Ninja World War, which symbolizes martial fighting, will begin. At that time, the major ninja villages completely broke up and fought for their living space with hard power.

Daimaru and the Grit Jonin chatted for a long time until they added drinks twice. The slightly tipsy Grit Jonin asked with a red face:

Why didn't this happen before? We sand ninjas are still suitable for using knives. I may not be able to play this brain-testing game...

So, I am the leader. Senior, you are just a 'deputy chief' and a tool to handle things. Don't think too much. Just follow the existing rules and do things according to the rules...

The duty of Daimaru, the boss, is to shield and escort the Relief Team from the treacherous overt and covert struggles, raise funds, expand influence, and profit from Suna Ninja. The actual internal affairs are not planned. How did you get involved?

From now on, the village needs not only ninjas who can fight, but also a guy as thick-skinned and greedy as you to take the helm...

The gravel jounin expressed sincere emotion that his long-term business trip to Konoha Village in the past two years had allowed him to see a lot.

Just being powerful is not enough. Unless one is almost invincible like Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, otherwise, a truly smart leader is needed to point the way forward for the village.

The harm caused by mistakes in strategic direction is much greater than that caused by people.

Daimaru shook the sake in the small porcelain bottle in his hand and lowered his voice and said:

Seniors must already know about the drastic changes in the Kingdom of Wind. Others may be ignorant, but senior village leaders like you and me must understand that the trend is irreversible. The expansion of power in the Ninja Village is inevitable. Just being a The road of being a mercenary organization that is hired by others has come to an end. Before the big wave of change hits, we sand ninja must take advantage of others not to react and follow the undercurrent to change quickly. Only in this way can we stand firm. The place of defeat. Whether it is the 'Rescue Team' or the 'Sniper Team', the various tailed beasts and winged armors, or even the hostile Rain Country and the 'Akatsuki' organization, they are all just thrown out by us actively or passively to attract others' attention. The 'bait' of force...

Temporary ups and downs and gaps can be made up for by the efforts of a very small number of geniuses. In the competition of comprehensive strength, especially the accumulation of the country and the Ninja Village, there are really not many shortcuts. If it were not for the imminent threat of the Akatsuki organization, there would be no shortcuts. Ye Cun probably already wielded the big stick of sanctions and dealt with Sunagakure Village.

The next two or three years will be an excellent opportunity for us sand ninjas to 'leap over the dragon gate'. If we miss this time, we will never have the chance to 'grow barbarically' unscrupulously...

Although I don't understand much, I understand roughly what to do...

The gravel jounin nodded and responded in a low voice,

The overall strategy is to maintain calm and maintain stability, but we cannot do nothing. Instead, we must appropriately cause some disturbances, disputes and even small conflicts, and involve the energy of Konoha Village at critical moments...

It's generally good, but you don't need to do it deliberately...

Daimaru nodded,

The ninjas from the five major ninja villages are gathered in one department. There are already many conflicts and it is impossible to live in harmony. What's more, there are tailed beasts and jinchūriki mixed in, which makes people even more jealous. If we can create a tailed beast is a ninja The common property of the world', 'Tailed beasts are also good partners of human beings', 'Jinchūriki are not tools, but the guardians of human beings' and other trends, nothing could be better...

The louder the high-sounding slogan, the better. No matter whether it is a ninja or an ordinary person, no one can find a reason to refute it openly. However, the person who implements it cannot be a saint with no selfish desires. The despicability of human nature will always make those who are bent on digging into the camp The guy found a loophole that could be exploited, and ultimately twisted the great ideal beyond recognition.
