Chapter 228 The progress of the Eastern Continent strategy and the formation of the puppet army

"Danzo, you will regret it!"

"Hiruzen, I am the Hokage!"

boom!

After the two had a tit-for-tat confrontation, the sound of the Hokage's office being slammed shut was heard.

Cool!

After Shimura Danzo said these words in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, his whole body seemed to have lost a few pounds, and he was so excited that he seemed about to take off.

This ever-changing conversation has been imagining in his mind for decades, and now that it's finally come true, it feels like eating Xuan Mai.

My whole body is really high.jpg.

However, before Danzo Shimura could fully savor the thrill of victory, he was spoiled by the words of Mito Kado and Koharu.

When they heard the specious conversation between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, some buttons seemed to be turned on in the bodies of Koharu and Mito Kadoen.

After hearing the key words "you regret my shadow", the two of them started to reconcile conditionedly like they were suffering from PTSD.

"Oh, Hiruzen, don't argue with Danzo, he is like this..."

"Yes Hiruzen, Danzo also has his own considerations. Don't you understand him yet? He just doesn't care about the situation and the person..."

"……Um?"

As he said these smooth words, Koharu and Mito Kadoyan suddenly realized that something was wrong.

What did we just say?

Let Hiruzen forgive Danzo?

But isn't the current Hokage Danzo Shimura?

So the person who just left was Sarutobi Hiruzen?

So is the person we just smoothed over the other way around?

The two looked at each other, carefully recalling what they had just said, and their faces were gradually filled with the word embarrassment.

In the silence, a deathly silence filled the Hokage's office.

"Say, keep talking! How is Danzo doing?"

Danzo Shimura slowly sat back on his seat, placed his crutches across his knees, and looked at Mito Kado and Koharu with an expressionless expression, seeming to be extremely interested in the conversation they had just finished. interest.

"Oh? Haha, I say Hokage-sama has great opinions... Danzo, what are the specific reforms you just mentioned?"

After going to bed, Xiaochun laughed and changed the subject very abruptly.

Shimura Danzo secretly scolded his two old teammates for being useless, but he also knew that if he wanted to implement this plan, he could not do without the help of these two people, so he immediately patiently used various means to deal with them. stand up.

The new reform plan of Konoha Village, as Danzo Shimura, the first of the three firebrands in the new official's appointment, must be invigorated no matter what.

However, these are only superficial phenomena after all.

"When I have followers of the Maitreya Sect all over Konoha, it will be the day when you old guys will step down!"

Shimura Danzo looked at the two people who were constantly pulling each other in front of him, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and vented his anger in his heart like this.

Shimura Danzo is naturally not a fool. He also knows that this reform plan touches the interests of most ninjas and will encounter great resistance.

The reason why he implemented this reform is also very simple. First, he wants to show his strength at the beginning of taking office.

He has been at the root for many years, and his style of conduct is domineering and unscrupulous. Naturally, the new Hokage will not change his style.

The second is to use the reform plan that only exists on paper as a bargaining chip to make a deal with the major ninja clans, forcing the major ninja clans to hand over more of their elites to his control.

Do you want to not give more ninjutsu authority to civilian ninjas?

Okay!

The purpose of this reform plan is to enhance the strength of the village. Since you don't agree, then send more elite ninjas from your clan to the ANBU. In this case, this plan will naturally need to be discussed, otherwise... hum. !

And the most critical third point is to use this reform plan as a cover to secretly develop the Maitreya religion.

The Maitreya Sect has been developing rapidly among civilian ninjas. As the living Buddha of the Maitreya Sect, Danzo Shimura has become the Hokage, so the Maitreya Sect must naturally expand accordingly.

Over the past twenty years, Danzo Shimura's fundamentals have been his roots.

It is undeniable that under the training of Danzo Shimura, the members of the Roots are all elites. However, since the essence of the Roots is the ANBU ninja training institution, it is destined that the number of Roots ninjas who can be mastered by Shimura Danzo will not be high. too much.

And Danzo Shimura wants to be a Hokage with absolute power. It is absolutely impossible to control Konoha with these root ninjas alone.

In this case, the Maitreya Cult is a good tool for Shimura Danzo to control Konoha.

As long as all civilian ninjas or those frustrated ninjas join this sect, it means that Shimura Danzo will gain actual bottom-up control of power.

Although Maitreya Sect was originally founded by Ghost Light Crescent Moon, the unique teachings of Maitreya Cult determined that Shimura Danzo was not afraid of Ghost Light Crescent Moon picking peaches at all.

"However, the Maitreya Sect is getting stronger and stronger. After all, we still have to choose an agent from the sect..."

Shimura Danzo was thinking while dealing with Koharu and Mito Kaden who had moved to another dormitory.

In fact, if Ryoma Aburame was still here, this guy would be a good choice.

It is a pity that Ryoma Aburame was killed in Uzushio Village by Kiden Shingetsu as early as six years ago when Danzo Shimura sent him to deal with Kito Shingetsu. At this time, most of his bones were probably rotten. Maybe he came out to help him master the Maitreya religion.

"Orochimaru... No, Orochimaru still needs to conduct wood escape experiments and improvements in the art of reincarnation, so he is not a good candidate..."

Danzo Shimura then thought of Orochimaru. Since he became Hokage, Orochimaru could finally conduct experiments openly and no longer feared being randomly inspected.

Because of this, Orochimaru's related research is progressing smoothly, and he cannot spare time to help him manage the Maitreya Sect.

But aside from these two people, he really couldn't find a few capable and loyal people for a while.

Suddenly, Danzo Shimura thought of Kakashi Hatake's dead eyes just now, and he suddenly had concerns in his heart.

"Hmm...but after a few years, Kakashi will be a good choice."

After experiencing the death of his parents and his shattered faith, it can be said that Kakashi is now a perfect tool.

With outstanding talent, no worries, a despairing heart, and focusing on tasks... Kakashi like this will really be able to help him manage the Maitreya Cult in a few years.

In Kirigakure Village, Ghost Light Crescent Moon had just finished reading the Eastern Continent strategy report sent back by Goju Yagura.

Two months have passed since Ghost Light New Moon established the Eastern Continent Kirigakure Company, and gave full authority to Goju Yagura to ride in the air fortress and lead the first batch of hundreds of elite ninjas to take charge of the Eastern Continent colonization plan.

Forgetting the half month on the road, Goju Yagura has been in the Eastern Continent for one and a half months.

In the past month and a half, relying on the great level of chakra utilization between the Eastern Continent and the Ninja World Continent, as well as the crushing combat power of the elite ninjas of the Kirigakure Village, coupled with the rapid support capabilities of the air fortress, Gouju Yagura's offense can be said to be overwhelming.

According to the early deployment and planning of Ghost Lantern Crescent, the first time Goju Yagura arrived in the Eastern Continent, he carried out targeted attacks on the capitals of the seven original indigenous countries in the Eastern Continent.

Using the high mobility of the air fortress and the powerful assault capabilities of the ninjas, they captured the capitals of seven indigenous countries in just three days.

All the high-ranking officials and royal members of these seven countries were caught by Goju Yagura without falling to the ground.

I originally thought of using the name to control the princes, but I didn't expect that as soon as the cities in these countries heard that the royal family members were under control, they were more like intruders than Goju Yagura, and they raised their heads in front of the envoys from the capital. The flag rose to resist.

To be able to alienate the people at the bottom to such an extent, it has to be said that the top leaders of these countries are all talented people.

In desperation, Goju Yagura could only change his strategy from indirect control to direct control, allowing his ninjas to directly take over the cities of the Eastern Continent.

In this era, don't expect the people in the Eastern Continent to have any national consciousness and feelings for their country. Basically, as long as they fall and the exploitation is not too excessive, the people here are not in the mood to avenge the former masters.

After all, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhao are gone. Which one of them will pay taxes differently?

In this case, under whose hands would it not be done?

And since the ultimate goal of Ghost Lantern Crescent is to use the Eastern Continent as a source of cheap raw materials and a dumping ground for goods, they will naturally not do anything to these poor people below.

If you really want to take action, you will only find excuses to kill a group of rich households. After all, how many ounces of money do poor people have?

Without falling into the vast sea of ​​​​people, the Eastern Continent Kirigakure Company often only needs a few ninjas to guard a city.

After all, even the rotten countrymen in the previous life were able to suppress the entire India with less than a thousand troops. Although limited by road traffic problems, several ninjas working with the shadow clones were enough to guard a city.

So under this situation, the entire Eastern Continent strategy plan can be said to be in a good situation.

However, while the overall situation is improving, due to the rapid advancement of the front line, this is the first time that this kind of combat method with generational differences has appeared in the entire ninja world. Goji Yagura does not have any experience to learn from, and some problems still remain. exposed.

"Is it mainly a matter of numbers..."

Ghost Light Xinyue quickly browsed the entire situation report, focusing on the last issues mentioned by Goju Yagura.

Because the advancement speed is too fast, the area occupied by the Eastern Continent Kirigakure Company has exceeded expectations.

Although it only takes a few ninjas to occupy a city, the Eastern Continent is after all a continent about the same size as the Ninja World Continent. Under the continuous division of troops, the strength of Goju Yagura's troops on the front line is no longer what it used to be.

And the sequelae of this division of troops are gradually becoming apparent.

Although the natives of the Eastern Continent could not win on the frontal battlefield, with their numbers far exceeding that of the ninjas, and under the leadership of some generals, they actually learned to fight guerrillas without any teachers.

"Although the people led by Lord Yagura are all the elites of my Kirigakure Village, and their combat power is enough to crush the group of Eastern Continent natives, the number of them is too small after all."

After following Gui Deng Xinyue for many years, Qiuye Masanobu's ability to talk on paper has naturally improved by leaps and bounds, and he has naturally seen this flaw.

"But Mr. Xinyue, the current group of ninjas are all the elites of the ninja clan. It is estimated that under the current situation, the major ninja clans are not willing to select people from the clan... If they want to support, I guess they can only support some. Genin and recent graduates from ninja school."

As the chief steward of Kirigakure Village, Akiba Masanobu naturally knows the current military situation of the village very well.

The total number of all the ninjas in Kirigakure Village is probably only a few thousand. Now one-third of them have been mobilized. Not to mention whether those ninjas are willing to continue to be mobilized. The key is that Kirigakure Village also needs to retain a considerable number of ninjas. Elites carry out commissioned tasks such as fulfillment and alert and prevention.

Although this is a truce period, we still need to be prepared just in case.

Regardless of the fact that the resistance forces in the Eastern Continent were like lost dogs under the attack of the elites of Kirigakure Village, the Eastern Continent is also a vast continent after all, and its armed forces still have merit after all.

If civilian genin and ninja school graduates were to deal with mechanical puppets that were different from the ninja puppets in Sunagakure Village, huge casualties would inevitably occur.

"Inform Gouju Yagura and have someone bring the air fortress back."

After Gui Deng Xinyue thought for a while, he finally began to issue orders.

"Select a thousand civilian ninjas to follow the air fortress to the Eastern Continent!"

It is true that Ghost Light Crescent wants to support the power of civilian ninjas, but this does not mean that he is a good old man and will only give away ninjutsu to them for free. This is the ninja world after all, and what he needs are the elites among the civilians.

What's more, since ninja academies have been built in all villages in the Kingdom of Water, civilian geniuses from the entire Kingdom of Water are pouring into Kirigakure Village continuously.

Therefore, Gui Deng Xinyue just took advantage of the Eastern Continent to raise Gu and sharpen the momentum and combat power of these civilian ninjas.

He has always believed in a principle, that is, an iron-blooded army must be tempered in the flames of war.

"Also, secretly modify the rules for the graduate preparatory period! All graduates must be stationed in the Eastern Continent for two months before they can become official genin!"

Ghost Light Crescent naturally did not forget Tsunade and Ye Cang who were active in the village. In order not to expose the existence of the Eastern Continent, this order was naturally not known until the graduates graduated from the Ninja School.

"Then notify the Eastern Continent Kirigakure Company that the contribution points earned from all tasks completed in the Eastern Continent will be doubled!"

Since they are far away from the mainland, these ninjas must be treated with high standards. Ghost Lantern Crescent will naturally not be able to tell the horses to run without giving them grass.

"Finally, use the psychic beast to hand this note to Gouju Yagura!"

Ghost Light Crescent Moon wrote a few lines of words on the paper, and while writing, he cursed Gouju Yagura:

"What a pig-brained person. He has such crushing combat power that he can still be trapped by human hands."

Akiba Masanobu took the note and glanced at it out of curiosity, only to see a few big words written in the first line:

The formation and use of the puppet army (Kirigakure Co-Prosperity Army).
