Daily Life of the Third Hokage

After work, Hiruzen Sarutobi went home for dinner and went to the study as usual to deal with the documents he brought back. Soon, he found that someone outside had triggered the barrier. Someone was looking for him. Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't care. There were apprentices at home. The two jonin apprentices were back. They would also participate in the jonin meeting tomorrow. After a while, someone knocked on the door of the study. When Hiruzen Sarutobi opened the door, it was Yuhi Shinku and Shimura Danzo. Yuhi Shinku said, "Master, Danzo is looking for you." "Well, Shinku, go make two cups of tea." Hiruzen Sarutobi invited Danzo to enter the study. After the two sat opposite each other, Danzo couldn't wait to speak. Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile: "Danzo, you are confused. Is this still the decisive Danzo in my mind? Don't worry, drink some tea first."

Soon, Yuhi Shinku brought a tea tray with tea sets and two cups of tea. After putting the tea tray away, Yuhi Shinku turned around and closed the door and went out.

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved at the tea tray, and one of the cups flew directly to Danzo's side.

"Come and try it."

Danzo's somewhat confused heart slowly calmed down as he drank the cup of tea.

He sighed and said, "Hiruzen, no wonder the teacher chose you in the end. I am indeed not as good as you. Between the village and the family, I can't completely favor the village. I was still hesitant about the matter of the Fire Trade Company until the last moment. I could hesitate on such a big thing for the Shimura family, but the Shimura family pushed everything to me without hesitation."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly asked, "Then what do you think of the ninja clan?"

Danzo was not surprised by his friend's question. After all, in his eyes, the ninja clan was a hidden danger to Konoha.

Danzo thought carefully and said, "The ninja clan is a roadblock to the development of the village. For the development of the village, we must crush this roadblock..."

Listening to Danzo's boasting, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt an indescribable disappointment.

In this world, people will kill and exterminate the clan if they disagree with each other. Danzo and the original body did the same thing in the original work. The ninja clan disappeared and Konoha's strength plummeted.

These ninja clans are just like the noble families in ancient Chinese history. Anyway, they are just sucking blood from the main body of the regime, but it is really difficult to move them because there are external enemies.

In ancient Chinese history, there were invasions by grassland tribes. Every struggle with the noble families started when the country was at its peak. In the struggles, they declined and finally changed dynasties. The struggle with the noble families lasted for thousands of years and was not completely eliminated.

That is because people are group animals and will keep each other warm. Therefore, as long as people have selfishness, similar existences cannot be eliminated. They just change a way to continue to exist.

Thousands of years of Chinese history tell us that killing is not a complete killing. After killing a batch, there will be another batch a few decades later.

Only that great man who shocked the world, fought against the local tyrants, distributed land equally, and redistributed resources. He curbed the development of the group.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not have the hobby of exterminating a clan at every turn. He exterminated his own ninja clan and weakened his own strength. Did he really think that the other four ninja villages were vegetarians?

His plan has always been to promote education and spread the knowledge of ninjutsu to dilute the power of the ninja clan in the village. When civilian ninjas account for the majority, we can deal with the ninja clan step by step.

"Huruzen, we can directly destroy a few small clans involved in the matter first, and then..." Danzo became more and more excited, as if he wanted to destroy all the ninja clans immediately.

"Danzo, have you ever thought about it? If all the ninja clans are destroyed, what can we use to resist the other four ninja villages?" Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand to interrupt Danzo's self-YY.

"Huruzen, I'm not saying to destroy these ninja clans at once, but to destroy them slowly, a few at a time, slowly... In addition, we will force each ninja clan to contribute excellent talents for us to drive." Danzo also has his own ideas, and he tried to persuade Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not surprised at all after hearing these words. After all, this is what Danzo did in the original book. Sarutobi Hiruzen followed his words and said: "Danzo, assuming that you can succeed, and all the ninja clans in the village are eliminated, then what? Will the ninja clans no longer appear? After a few decades, the descendants of those civilian ninjas will become the second generation of ninjas, the third generation of ninjas, and if time is extended a little longer, there will be more descendants, and these ninjas with the same name and surname will gather together to form a new ninja clan. What should we do then?"

Shimura Danzo showed no intention

The attitude of taking human life seriously "When the time comes, we will kill another batch. People are like leeks. If we kill a batch, they will grow again in twenty years. Besides, we will be gone by then, and that will be something that the younger generation of ninjas need to deal with."

"I think this is inappropriate. People are selfish. They will subconsciously favor those who are close to them or have blood relations with them. For example, for something like what Koharu did, do you think he should be sent to prison and sentenced to death? However, I only dismissed him from his position as assistant to the Hokage.

In the primitive society, they took the family as the unit, and humans huddled together for warmth, forming groups of varying sizes. This was the clan, which was the prototype of the ninja clan. The widespread spread of chakra made the clan's ability have a prominent external manifestation in a certain direction, and also made this most primitive form of organization always exist in the history of the ninja society. This stable existence made the clan gradually become a social unit with certain capabilities in terms of economy, politics, will, etc.

In the ninja world, people were divided into different clans according to their blood relationship, and after the spread of chakra, the powerful clan The ability of the clan has a certain direction of outstanding external manifestation, that is, relying on the technique to show different abilities, which has become the basis for distinguishing powerful clans and the most distinctive feature, which is the ninja clan.

Those powerful ninja clans, not satisfied with their current status, or insufficient resources, began to attack other weak ninja clans, which is the origin of the war.

Until the first generation of adults and Uchiha Madara founded the village, the ninja world changed from the ninja clan era to the ninja village era. In this transitional period, the ninja clan is both a part of the ninja village, but it is not dissolved in the ninja village. And we What this generation has to do is to make the ninja clan merge into the ninja village and turn the power of the ninja clan into the power of the village.

If we wantonly kill the ninja clan, it will contradict the first generation's ideas, and it may weaken the ninja clan, the backbone of Konoha, and other ninja clans will be alienated from the village. At that time, war will come, and Konoha will lose the power to resist war and may cease to exist. "

After popularizing the origin and changes of the ninja society to Shimura Danzo at one time, he was a little dry-mouthed. Sarutobi Hiruzen grabbed the teacup beside him and drank it all.

"Then are we helpless against the ninja clan? Many ninja clans have developed to the present, exploiting the ninjas of the lower-level families, and destroying and blocking the policies of the village in various ways. It has become a cancer. "Shimura Danzo was a little unconvinced. What the Shimura family did to him this time really chilled him.
