Become the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

A few weeks later, Namikaze Minato met envoys from Iwagakure and Kirigakure.

The envoys from Iwagakure and Kirigakure both expressed their desire for peace, and they were willing to pay a certain price in exchange for a peace agreement with Konoha.

Naturally, Namikaze Minato would not let go of this opportunity and took advantage of it to gain a lot of benefits.

Although they failed to claim the land of the Land of Earth and the Land of Water, they succeeded in driving out all the influence of the two countries in the surrounding small countries, increasing Konoha's sphere of influence.

The only ninja village that has not expressed its stance is Kumogakure in the Kingdom of Thunder.

Kumogakure is the ninja village that Namikaze Minato finds most difficult. The land of thunder where Kumogakure is located is not only surrounded by sea on three sides, but has rugged terrain. Its leader, the Fourth Raikage Ai, is a ninja who is known for his speed and can counter the flying thunder god's technique. .

The eight-tailed jinchuriki is also the strongest jinchuriki in the ninja world currently, and can fully utilize the power of the tailed beasts.

However, as the situation in the ninja world gradually stabilizes, even if Kumogakure Village has not signed a peace treaty with other ninja villages, it will never dare to act rashly.

Although the AB combination is very strong, it is definitely not invincible.

After signing a peace agreement with Iwagakure and Kirigakure, Namikaze Minato, who gained great prestige, finally started his own reforms.

Namikaze Minato's reforms mainly focused on two aspects.

The first is to break down the barriers between the major departments in the village and allow personnel to flow. Especially departments such as the police force must be split and cannot only belong to the Uchiha clan.

In Namikaze Minato's view, the second generation Hokage's original intention of setting up the security force was good, but he did the wrong thing with good intentions, which limited Uchiha to the security force and created a gap with the village.

As a result, Uchiha had the final say in the security force, and outside the security force, Uchiha could not get any useful positions at all, and he became a complete outsider in the village.

If you want to change this situation, you must unbind the ninja clan and the department.

In order to achieve this goal, Minato Namikaze visited Uchiha Fugaku many times in private. Only by convincing the Uchiha clan leader and under the leadership of the security forces could other departments be split.

The second is to carry out reforms in education and scientific research, so that ninjas can participate in more professions and have the ability to freely choose their profession, instead of just being mercenaries of daimyo and nobles.

After confirming the direction of reform, Namikaze Minato did not waste time.

Bypassing the high-level meeting, possible future reforms were announced directly at the all-jounin meeting.

After hearing the content of the reform, the faces of the Third Hokage and other advisor elders suddenly darkened. Namikaze Minato actually bypassed them and wanted to change the order of the village.

However, considering Minato Namikaze's current prestige, they neither objected nor refused, and acquiesced to Minato Namikaze's reforms.

After hearing the contents of the reform, the Konoha Jonin also fell into deep thought.

The reforms of the Fourth Hokage are of course good and fully meet the standards of the Will of Fire, but ideals are ideals and reality is reality. How many people are willing to give up their interests and participate in the reforms of the Fourth Hokage?

Most of the Uchiha jounin disagreed, and the ninja jounin who held high positions in various departments also questioned in their hearts.

However, they also understood that they could not openly oppose it on this occasion. They could only agree with Namikaze Minato's proposal, thinking about how to obtain the maximum benefits from the reform of the Fourth Hokage.

…

The reform of the Fourth Hokage undoubtedly caused an earthquake within Konoha.

All the major forces have quietly started to take sides. They are all worried about whether their own interests will be damaged. They all want to defeat their competitors in this reform, and then add insult to injury.

But for the chuunin and genin who make up the vast majority.

The Fourth Hokage's reform is closely related to them, but it has nothing to do with them. Whether the Fourth Hokage's reform is successful or not, it will not affect their execution of commissions and earning commissions from their employers.

Both chuunin and genin were indifferent to reform.

As a child in an orphanage, Kabuto Yakushi was even less interested in the reform of the Fourth Hokage.

Instead of wasting your mind on the high-level game of the village, it is better to think about how to complete the tasks assigned by Bai Ye in exchange for more money to subsidize the family.

Two weeks ago, Kabuto Yakushi met the mysterious man Bai Ye.

On the premise of working for Bai Ye in the future, Yaoshi Kabuto received a sum of one hundred thousand taels of money.

One hundred thousand taels is a huge amount for an orphanage, enough to sustain the orphanage for a few more months.

Kabuto Yakushi will never forget the look in the dean's eyes when he received the hundred thousand taels.

The director's eyes were full of surprise at that time, and he immediately asked him where the money came from. He did not admit that the money was earned from work, but said that some kind people had donated money to the orphanage.

In the eyes of Yakushi Kabuto, Bai Ye is indeed a truly good person.

However, as the number of completed tasks increased, Kabuto Yakushi became more and more curious about Byakuya's identity. Who is this person? Why did he donate to the orphanage under the pretext of giving himself a mission?

After all, the tasks assigned to him by Bai Ye were all about inquiring about rumors on the street, and there were even meaningless tasks such as exercising and reading books.

Kabuto Yakushi once asked Bai Ye, but the answer he got was:

Your strength is still too weak to complete a task that is too difficult, so you should grow up with peace of mind. When the time comes, you will naturally be useful.

Kabuto Yakushi didn't take Bai Ye's words to heart, and he wasn't worried about being used by Bai Ye.

He is just an orphan whose parents don't even know who he is. It's a good thing that someone can take advantage of him, which proves that he still has the value of existence.

Not to mention that Bai Ye, his boss, in addition to issuing tasks, would also answer his questions from time to time.

Thinking of this, Kabuto Yakushi, who had been running around the streets for several kilometers, stopped and whispered in a voice that only he could hear:

"Senior, today's running task has been completed. When do you think the money will be available?"

Bai Ye's clone glanced at Yakushi Kabuto, and then said:

"The money is still in the same place. Go and get it when no one is around. Your task tomorrow is to go to the Konoha library to read. In addition to having good physical fitness, my subordinates' culture should not be too bad."

Hearing this, Kabuto Yakushi nodded: "Senior, I promise to complete the mission."

After a pause, Yakushi Kabuto asked curiously: "But why did you, senior, ask me to collect information on reforms? Are you very interested in the reforms of the Fourth Generation?"

Bai Ye nodded and then said:

"I am indeed somewhat interested in the Hokage's reform, but unlike gathering intelligence as you might imagine, I came here specifically to watch Minato Namikaze's jokes and learn some lessons from his failures."
