In fact, when Watergate said to Nangong Zhe that he needed Nangong Zhe's help to train ninjas to ensure the basic strength of Wood leaf Village, Nangong Zhe didn't believe a word of it. Over the years, as the head of the Blood-Cloak Pavilion, Nangong Zhe has also accumulated a certain amount of political experience.
Whether it's advantages or disadvantages, they can't be directly put on the surface. At least 70% of what is said on the surface is a lie to achieve one's own goals. Wood leaf Village indeed suffered a lot of losses in the previous Third Shinobi World War, and there is a trend of a lack of manpower. But Wood leaf Village wasn't the only one that was damaged in the Shinobi World War. The other four large Shinobi Villages also suffered a lot.
So what does Watergate have to worry about? At least in the next few years, these Shinobi Villages won't be able to launch a large-scale war. Why does Watergate have to be so eager to train Wood leaf Village's new strength?
After thinking about it, Nangong Zhe can only conclude that Watergate didn't do it for self-protection, but for improvement. Gathering all the high-end strength in the Shinobi Village, delaying the number of missions completed, and training more ninjas with combat ability. No matter how you think about it, it doesn't seem like something that a conservative person would do, right?
And on the other hand, all the Shinobi Villages are basically in a weak period. As long as he can become stronger, even if he isn't overwhelmingly strong, he can start with the medium-sized Shinobi Villages and swallow their strength step by step, and then if the time is right, he can even bite off a piece of meat from the other large Shinobi Villages.
Such a thing is too tempting, and even if the other four large Shinobi Villages find out about Wood leaf Village's changes, they can't do anything, because accepting and completing missions is the guarantee of their survival. Wood leaf Village has a large business, so it's not a big deal to slightly reduce the number of missions, but the other Shinobi Villages can't wait to get more missions instead of refusing to complete them.
Therefore, in order to not be involved in such a quagmire, even if he and Watergate are not happy, Nangong Zhe won't agree to Watergate's plan. In fact, what he wants is just a stable life. Since Wood leaf Village can't achieve his goal, Nangong Zhe can live without Wood leaf.
For Nangong Zhe, Wood leaf is just an ordinary place where he lives, and it doesn't matter if he changes it. But for Wood leaf, Nangong Zhe is a huge sign and a protective umbrella at the moment, they can't let Nangong Zhe go, and even coax Nangong Zhe to live a good life in Wood leaf.
"Don't worry, I already understand what you mean. I'm not a person who will force people to do things, Nangong Jonin, you just need to remember that Wood leaf is a very good place, and sometimes you need to help. "
Watergate said to Nangong Zhe as he slowly opened Nangong Zhe's hands. He didn't seem to care about Nangong Zhe at all, instead, he seemed to be very concerned about Nangong Zhe. After that, Watergate and Nangong Zhe casually talked about some common topics, and Watergate specifically asked one of his Shadow Guards to send Nangong Zhe out of Hokage's office.
After that, whether Watergate acted alone in his office, no one knows, but being treated like this by Nangong Zhe, no one would be in a good mood, right? However, Nangong Zhe didn't care, anyway, he didn't have to stay in Wood leaf.
Whether it was the action against Danzō or the act of bringing his family back to Wood leaf, in fact, Nangong Zhe did it casually, there was no need to completely sell his life to Watergate because of these things, this was simply unrealistic.
The medical ninja training program and the combat ninja training program were in full swing inside Wood leaf at this moment, the entire Wood leaf was shrouded in a positive mood, but Nangong Zhe was completely unaffected, he just stayed at home every day and didn't show up.
Every day, Nangong Zhe didn't even touch Nangong Zhe's sword, let alone practice swordsmanship day and night like before, except for some work from the Blood-Clothed Pavilion. On the contrary, Nangong Zhe bought a lot of books that had nothing to do with fighting, he just stayed at home all day and read books, it was very uncomfortable.
Nangong Rou, Mashiro, and Little Linger, who lived with Nangong Zhe, were also very curious. Nangong Zhe, who didn't like such literary things in the past, suddenly read such literary books that he usually disdained. However, they were also very happy that Nangong Zhe could stay at home like this.
After all, Nangong Zhe could be said to have become a good family man, every day he would go to the market with Nangong Rou to buy ingredients for today's meal. When it was time to eat, he would stay in the kitchen with Mashiro to prepare three meals a day, which was quite decent. When he was free, he would bring Little Linger, who loved to play, to a beautiful place to have a few cookouts. He was simply too happy.
Day by day, Nangong Zhe was as excited as if he had retired early. The most obvious change was that his originally streamlined but very defined muscles were slowly becoming soft. Her originally thin face gradually became more plump, and her entire person looked more gentle.
In the beginning, whether it was Watergate or Wood Leaf Village, some of the families who paid attention to Nangong Zhe's changes, they still observed Nangong Zhe's daily life, afraid that Nangong Zhe was secretly preparing some kind of plan. However, as Nangong Zhe continued to live like this, even his originally sharp aura began to slowly disappear. Watergate and the other families also quietly moved their eyes away from Nangong Zhe's body. After all, everyone had their own things to do. It was not worthwhile to waste their resources on a person who only cared about his daily life.
Time passed quietly, and the number of books Nangong Zhe read had increased from the original few books to the number of books that filled several bookshelves. In the past three years, Nangong Zhe had almost always maintained the life of a 'retired official'. Moreover, if one took a closer look at the books on the bookshelves, one would notice that many of the books had very obvious traces of flipping. Some of the books even looked like they were unglued, which was enough to prove that Nangong Zhe had indeed read many books.
