With the imprisonment of Asuma and Konoha's two advisors, a big obstacle inside Konoha was swept away.
Kakashi held a second special meeting overnight!
This time, the discussion was no longer about whether or not to support Konoha joining the Hidden Ninja Kingdom, but what kind of time and how to do it!
Konoha has been rooted in the Land of Fire for decades, and it's not as simple as just leaving.
There are three most realistic problems in front of them.
First, many ninjas in Konoha have their own relatives and family in the Land of Fire!
If they leave like this, it will be regarded as a betrayal. In the future, the two countries will fight, can they accept it emotionally?
Take them with them? This trip … Even if they are willing to take the risk, who is willing to let their family take the risk with them?
Second, the civilians living in Konoha, most of them came to the village to make a living. This big change is bound to have an unprecedented impact on their livelihood. Are they willing to follow?
Third, and also the biggest problem, the Land of Fire is far away from the Hidden Ninja Country. The Land of Fire has too many ways to deal with the migration of tens of thousands of people. They can set up ambushes and intercepts on the way. Once a conflict breaks out, there will be heavy casualties, and even the entire army will be wiped out!
This is very realistic. Ten thousand ninjas are absolutely no match for millions of soldiers!
How many people will die if a huge wave of arrows falls? The first wave was stopped, what about the second wave, the third wave … What about the N wave?
If these three problems are not solved, Konoha's separation from the Land of Fire will become a dream!
With Shikaku as the representative, the Jonin discussed these three problems one by one.
"If they have family in the Land of Fire, let them choose voluntarily. If they don't want to go together, the village will not give them any punishment, nor will it be regarded as a betrayal. In the future, the door of Konoha will be open for them again."
"They can come back again … That's not good, right? In case there are people who deliberately choose to stay and try to avoid harm, the order will be disrupted, right? "
At this time, Shikaku said: "Then we will strictly verify the situation. If there are family members who can't be separated, we will keep the friendship and welcome them back in the future."
"If you don't have any family members outside, you can also leave first. However, we will record this in our records. These people will not be able to return for any reason in the future …"
"In addition, if you do not choose to leave in advance, you will be regarded as following Konoha to the end. If you leave halfway, you will be attacked! Although it is a little cruel, if we don't do this, we won't be able to stabilize the morale of the army! "
"I agree. Let's do as Lu Jiu said. I have no objection!"
"By the way, such a large number of household registrations will be checked one by one, the ninjas responsible for the relevant work will be under a lot of pressure, right?"
Shikaku said, "Let's get some people from my Nara Clan. I'm not boasting, but the members of my clan are quite smart. They should be able to simplify the work."
Inoichi said, "Send someone from our Yamanaka Clan. Our clan's spiritual power has been greatly developed. We have strong resistance to pressure and work carefully. We should be able to help."
Ding Zuo said, "If you have the strength to do it, then let the men of our Qiu Dao Clan do it!"
"Then the pressure on the kitchen will be huge!"
"Hahaha …"
I don't know who joked, but the venue was filled with cheers, and the somewhat depressing atmosphere eased a lot.
"Everyone will work hard, stay up late, and try to implement it in three days!" Shikaku said, "The first problem, for the time being … let's discuss the problem of the people."
The venue fell into silence again … because the people of Konoha have been a headache for a long time. If they are not properly settled, something will happen.
"Let's just dismiss the people …" After a long silence, Kakashi suddenly spoke.
"Dismiss?? Hey, Kakashi, are you serious? "People were taken aback," You shouldn't be thinking about Minato's family … "
"I am the Hokage. I won't let personal grievances affect my judgment on official matters. This decision is carefully considered." Kakashi said, "Think about it, we have a long journey, crisis, and we are responsible for protecting people who are several times more than ninjas. This is a burden, and a burden!"
Everyone was shocked, this is indeed a problem that can't be ignored, no, it's enough to determine success or failure!
"But the people of Konoha are mostly dependent on the village for their livelihood. If we directly dismiss them, they will lose their livelihood. At that time, they will say that we are killing the donkey after it has outlived its usefulness. Can we just drive them away?"
"Just drive them away, I've been looking at them for a long time!"
"No!" Kakashi said otherwise, "The secular world thinks that we ninjas are barbarians who only use force. If we really do such a thing, wouldn't it confirm this point and make them look down on us from the bottom of their hearts? It will also bring shame to the Dark Ninja Kingdom that we are about to join! "
Kakashi also had a sentence hidden in his heart, "That will bring shame to Obito."
"So, in the end, what should we do?"
"Ugh." Kakashi sighed softly and stood up with his hands on the table. Bang! Just when everyone was puzzled, Kakashi's head slammed on the table …
"Hey … Kakashi, what are you doing!!" Everyone was surprised.
"I'm sorry, if I don't do this, I really can't express my inner apology and guilt!!"
"If you have something to say, say it! We have survived all kinds of storms, you can rest assured and say it boldly! "
"I hope that everyone ….. will gather money again. This time, we will contribute all of our assets and distribute this money to the people as their resettlement fee!!!"
A year ago, the reconstruction of Konoha peeled off a layer of skin of all the ninjas in the village. It was Minato who put down his face and borrowed money from the Dark Ninja Village.
After the reconstruction, because of the pressure of reputation and public opinion, the number of tasks assigned by the Fire Country sharply decreased, and the village's finances were severely reduced. In this year, the village almost didn't accumulate any wealth, including the Ino-Shika-Cho and the Hyuga Clan.
Genma said, "What is it? That's it, I thought it was something serious … "
Inoichi said, "Oh, it seems that the dowry I prepared for my daughter can't be kept."
Choza Akimichi said, "Fortunately, I hid it from my wife and saved some private money."
Shikaku also said, "This action is a matter of life and death for us. If we fail … we can't bring the money to the Pure Land. It's better to distribute it to the people, and we will go to the Dark Ninja Country. It's the dawn of hope!"
Shikaku said, "Kakashi, you are our Hokage-sama, you represent the face of Konoha. Raise your head and speak …"
Kakashi buried his head on the table and clenched his fists, "Everyone … Thank you!"
Imperial Feather City.
No one knew that the scene in Konoha's meeting hall had been seen by the big shots using the Crystal Ball Technique.
It was a crystal ball so big that it filled half of the room. Only Lin Yu had the means to see the image thousands of miles away …
Minato said, "Kakashi, I am proud of you …"
Tobirama: "This scene, it seems familiar ah …"
Intercolumnar Space said, "Yes, it reminds me of myself … It seems that the hope of the village has not disappeared!"
"Huh?" Lin Yu, who was silently watching, suddenly felt a calling, "Everyone, please excuse me …"
Whoosh! Lin Yu disappeared in the vortex between time and space.
The scene changed, and in front of him was Jiraiya. The Dynamic Kamui Imprint on his palm dimmed. It was left by Lin Yu when they parted at Mount Myoboku.
Jiraiya wasn't a casual person who liked to disturb others.
"Shadow, Great Toad Sage, there is a new prophecy to announce, let's go immediately …"
