Konoha's task master

The next day, early morning.

Yakumo sat up from the bed and looked at Masako Mori on the grass through the glass. A ray of celestial chakra had quietly formed in her body, but she was still a few steps away from the appearance of the celestial mark.

Not long after, the magic chakra dispersed and failed.

Throughout the night, Masako Mori conducted more than a dozen experiments, and the result was more than a dozen failures.

Masako Mori still gritted her teeth and persisted.

She has shown great resilience in the face of failure, and it is this indomitable spirit that brings her closer to success.

Yakumo got up, washed briefly, used chakra to shake off the moisture from his wet hair, then put on an apron and prepared breakfast.

After dinner, Yakumo went to the Hokage's office.

Last night, I promised Uchiha Obito that there needs to be a more perfect solution.

Masako Mori went to Ryūchi Cave to practice the sage mode.

Inside the office.

Hatake Sakumo sat behind a huge pile of documents, writing furiously, occasionally raising his head and patiently listening to the details of Yakumo's words.

"Uncle Hatake, that's probably what it looks like."

For more than ten minutes, Yakumo recounted the general details of the incident, including a brief explanation of the man's sinful experience.

That man took over and owned three caravans, and his job was to sell specialties and food among major countries.

But his wealth far exceeds the limits of this business model.

Even if the caravan was robbed halfway, the profit from one trip would be dozens of times that of others. After Uchiha Obito's investigation, it was found that he was secretly engaged in the business of smuggling babies and children and selling human organs.

It took only a few years for him to accumulate a huge net worth. Perhaps he knew that he had done all the bad things and would never end well. Although he had five or six mistresses, he did not get married or have any children.

Hatake Sakumo nodded.

"I'll let the ANBU finish this matter."

From an emotional point of view, there is nothing wrong with the way Yakumo and Obito handled this matter, but from a rule point of view... it is indeed a major violation of the ninja code.

"Thank you, Uncle Hatake."

"Next time you encounter something like this, remember to report it first. As a ninja assassination employer, this kind of thing is not in line with ninja standards."

Hatake Sakumo said in a harsh tone at the end.

"Credibility and security are the cornerstones of Konoha's missions. Things like attacking your employer must not be known to too many people."

"Don't worry, I've already told Obito."

"That's good."

Seeing that the matter had been perfectly handled, Yakumo wanted to quit.

During this period of time when Masako Mori was practicing in Sage Mode, she did not experience the power of nature going berserk, but after all, it was not 100% safe.

"If nothing happens, I'll leave first?"

"Actually, there is still something."

Hatake Sakumo put down the pen in his hand, a serious look on his face.

"I plan to open an additional swordsmanship class at the Ninja Academy and select a group of civilians or orphans who are physically strong but have poor ninjutsu talents as the first group of members."

Yakumo asked, "Are you using the Hatake Secret Code as a teaching material?"

"That's the intention, but the core content will be controlled."

This is the conclusion that Hatake Sakumo came to after thinking for a long time. Anyway, there is only one seedling left in the Hatake clan, so it is better to use inheritance as a public resource to provide some benefits to the civilians in Konoha Hidden Village.

"If Uncle Hatake wants to do this, I will support it."

Yakumo replied.

"I plan to proceed step by step and first find four or five similar children to pass on the Hatake Secret Code. If the results are good, I will officially establish a swordsmanship class."

"After establishing the swordsmanship class, I plan to relax the conditions for obtaining advanced ninjutsu and lower the conditions for obtaining S-level ninjutsu."

“Build talent, build additional channels and spend.”

Hatake Sakumo confessed to Yakumo.

Each major ninja clan in Konoha has its own inheritance and has not chosen to make it public. That is because if it were made public, many geniuses would emerge among the common people.

His policy will indeed strengthen civilian geniuses, their ability to protect themselves, and their growth rate, but it will also have an impact on the members of the ninja clan.

These civilian geniuses will inevitably establish a new ninja clan in the future and divide their interests with the original ninja clan.

This is Hatake Sakumo's plan to destroy and rebuild Konoha's inherent system, weaken the privileged class, and increase the opportunities for civilian ninjas.

If interests are put aside, secret techniques are the foundation of the ninja clan.

When a secret technique is known by many, it will be difficult to maintain its mystery. When it is no longer mysterious, it will be easy for enemies to find loopholes to crack the secret technique.

High-end knowledge is difficult to obtain in Konoha Hidden Village, and Namikaze Minato also spent a lot of effort... to obtain the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The Hatake Secret Code is a secret code that directly refers to the shadow level and is very precious.

If it is made public, it will definitely impact the status of other ninja clans. This move is an enemy of the huge interest groups within Konoha Hidden Village.

"You also know what it means. Are you sure you want to support me?"

After a few seconds of silence, Hatake Sakumo asked Yakumo sincerely.

"Of course, what you do is beneficial to most people in Konoha, and this alone is enough to support you." Yakumo said immediately.

"Thank you, but most people actually don't have the right to speak."

Hatake Sakumo stood up and looked down at the entire Konoha through the glass, his eyes deep and distant.

"Konoha is beautiful now, isn't it? It's stable, prosperous and rich."

"Yes, Uncle Hatake manages things very well."

"In the prosperous area in the center, almost 90% of the shops are occupied by ninjas, and the civilian industries are probably located on the fringes."

"This prosperous Konoha belongs to the ninja clan, but not to the common people."

Hatake Sakumo's voice was very soft, but very firm.

"Back then, the Ninja clan founded Konoha to provide shelter for civilians. Since they were the founders, they were naturally assigned the land deeds in the core area."

Yakumo walked to Hatake Sakumo and said softly.

The Hatake clan was one of the ninja clans that founded Konoha back then. The current location of the Hatake mansion is also in a relatively central area.

Yakumo was a little puzzled. Hatake Sakumo was born in the privileged class and enjoyed many advantages brought by the privileged class, but now he wants to become the enemy of the privileged class.

But soon, Hatake Sakumo answered Yakumo's doubts with his words.

"Originally, the ninja clan was the protector of Konoha, but as more and more civilians poured into Konoha, they formed the grassroots of Konoha and shared many responsibilities for protecting this ninja village."

"They died to protect Konoha, but those ninjas only shared their responsibilities with the civilians, but did not share their privileges with others."

"When I saw my former comrades, after sacrificing their legs for Konoha, they were living a life that could barely fill their stomachs."

"When I saw that my senior had sacrificed his life for Konoha, his son couldn't even buy new clothes for the New Year."

"Suddenly, it became clear to me that I needed to make some changes."

Hatake Sakumo's voice became passionate and loud, as if he was expressing the flame that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.

"Now that various protections have been increased and pensions have been increased several times, the situation you mentioned will no longer occur."

These problems do exist, but they have been greatly improved after Hatake Sakumo became Hokage, especially in terms of subsidies and pensions.

"Even the ninja representatives did not stop the implementation of the executive order."

"That's because they know that I can't always be Hokage."

Hatake Sakumo's tone suddenly changed, with a hint of chill.

"The third generation hopes to conduct the Hokage selection as soon as possible and recommend Namikaze Minato as the fifth generation Hokage."

The question in Yakumo's mind was answered. "I see."

"Minato is an orphan, so he will strongly support the government orders that benefit the grassroots ninjas."

"We can influence the Fifth and Sixth Generations, but we cannot influence the Ninth and Tenth Generations. This method cannot eradicate the problem."

"The privileged class should share some privileges with the lower class ninjas."

"That's only fair."

If Sakumo Hatake wants to get justice for the lower-class ninjas, he will inevitably have to have conflicts with the ninja clan, and even civilian ninjas may not stand behind him to support him.

Those successful changes unite the majority of people to overthrow a small number of people, but Hatake Sakumo's idea is... to fight alone.

Yakumo and Hatake Sakumo talked for a while and then left the Hokage's office on their own initiative. Their steps were no longer diligent and even a little heavy.

It was Yakumo, together with Tsunade, Jiraiya, and the Uchiha clan who promoted Hatake Sakumo to the position of Hokage. It was originally intended to serve as a transitional board for Namikaze Minato to become the Hokage.

Unexpectedly, Hatake Sakumo would have such an ideal.

Such a great and dangerous ideal.

In Hatake Sakumo's eyes, there is perseverance and determination to sacrifice his life for his ambition, but there is no fear.

Hatake Sakumo will open the Hatake Secret Code, create a swordsmanship class, lower the exchange conditions for advanced ninjutsu, and create a genius training program.

This will make all ninjas enemies, just for the ideal in their hearts...or to alert the world.

This is a big deal.

Anyone who intends to achieve great things will inevitably have martyrs.

Hatake Sakumo was already prepared to sacrifice at any time.

Yakumo also confessed that he would be away from Konoha for a long time in the future. Without his suppression, monsters and monsters would appear all at once.

This is the real test for Hatake Sakumo.

In fact, Yakumo knew that if he was willing to join, the resistance Sakumo Hatake encountered would no longer be a problem, but he knew better that this was a huge whirlpool of trouble.

Yakumo doesn't like trouble.

Hatake Sakumo hopes that Yakumo will take Kakashi with him so that he can devote himself to his ideals, but he does not want to implicate Kakashi.

Yakumo chose to agree to Hatake Sakumo's request, but he did not want to use deception to bring Kakashi to the world of One Piece.

Hatake Sakumo planned to walk an extremely difficult road alone. Although Yakumo offered support, he did not actually help.

"Fairness, there is no real fairness in this world."

Yakumo sighed softly, with Yahiko in front of him and Sakumo behind him, they all have to create fairness for the disadvantaged groups, even if they risk their lives.

The silver key appeared on the fingertips, and the body was transported to Longdi Cave.

Yakumo's shadow clone went to the Uchiha clan. He wanted to find an amulet for Hatake Sakumo so that Uchiha Fugaku could protect Hatake Sakumo's life at the critical moment.

If you include Uchiha Crane, it is enough to ensure safety.

Longdi Cave.

Qianxue Qianxue and Masako Mori are still practicing the sage mode.

Kakashi was practicing sword skills not far away.

Early this morning, Yakumo's shadow clone sent him the key to Ryuji Cave. Judging from the way he kept stealing glances at Qianxue Qianxue, he probably wanted to challenge him.

Not long after, the worried Qianxue stood up. The immortal mark on his forehead was like flowing black flames, adding a different kind of mystery.

"Come on, let's discuss it."

"good."

Kakashi immediately attacked him, his white fangs slashing through the air like a roaring silver dragon. He had indeed become much stronger after half a year.

The two collided in the square, and when the scattered swords fell to the ground, only a few insignificant scars appeared, which were automatically repaired in an instant.

Not long after, Kakashi was defeated.

This is also expected. After experiencing the improvement after the double dungeon, as well as the increase in the immortal mode, Qianxue Qianxue has the combat power to crush the shadow level, and is only a hair away from the super shadow.

Even Worry Bone Qianxue did not use the death energy.

Yakumo looked at the somewhat unwilling Kakashi, and then thought of Hatake Sakumo's instructions to him. How should he choose?

If this matter was told to Kakashi, he would definitely choose to return to Konoha to face it with his father, which would... also violate Hatake Sakumo's instructions.

But...if he didn't tell Kakashi, if Hatake Sakumo really had an accident during this period, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"It's really annoying."

Yakumo's trouble is that he is caught between the two, and if he makes a judgment, he will inevitably break a promise.

If you are in doubt, you can ask Masako Mori.

After lunch, Yakumo mysteriously pulled Masako Mori to a corner and spoke about what happened today and the judgment he had to make.

"Why are you worried about something like this?"

Masako Mori asked with some confusion.

Yakumo asked: "Then what do you think we should do?"

"You have the power to change the rules. If you think Uncle Hatake is doing the right thing, you can let him implement the plan in your name. No ninja will risk being exterminated to harm Uncle Hatake."

"I actually think what you said makes sense."

Yakumo nodded and said that he had also thought of this method, but in a sense he did not want to participate in such a troublesome incident.

"But I think..."

His instinct is to refuse and stay out of trouble...

After all, Hatake Sakumo can bear the price for his choice, and he is not his bodyguard, so he can show off a little when the time comes.

But Masako Mori's words are very meaningful, he can change the rules.

Suddenly, the game prompt suddenly came to mind.

"Ding dong, congratulations to the player for triggering the mission: Changemaker."

"Task time, no limit."

"The mission goal is to help Hatake Sakumo implement the plan."

"Task reward, Taoist scroll, six free attribute points."

"Extra rewards, extra privileges from the copy."

The game system suddenly triggered a mission, and Yakumo no longer had any reason to stay out of it. In other words, the game system seemed to like getting him involved in all kinds of troubles.

"I know what to do."

Yakumo immediately changed his attention, created a shadow clone at the same time, and returned to Konoha to inform Hatake Sakumo of his decision.

He will officially join this revolution.

Of course, the mission was only part of the reason, and the more important thing was Masako Mori's words that successfully moved him.

Yakumo will not be forced by the general trend to make a choice, he is the general trend!

Masako Mori chuckled and said, "Your transformation is quite fast."

"The main reason is that it gives too much." Yakumo thought.

That's six free attribute points. These six attribute points will directly help increase the agility attribute to more than sixty-eight points.

Taoist-level swordsmanship is right in front of you!

"I plan to tell Kakashi about Uncle Hatake's plan, let him make his own choice, and suggest that Uncle Hatake's plan be postponed until after we take the risk."

Yakumo thought for a while and told Masako Mori his new plan.

"Just decide."

"Any decision you make...I will support it unconditionally."

Masako Mori answered with a smile.

"Brother Shen!"

"Um!"

When Shen Changqing walks on the road and meets familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.

But no matter who it is.

There is no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they are indifferent to everything.

Regarding this.

Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, it also has some other side jobs.

It can be said.

Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.

The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.

Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.

Anyone who enters the Demon Slayer Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.

Then he will be promoted step by step, and eventually he is expected to become a guardian envoy.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.

Possess the memory of the previous life.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.

Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that are full of chills, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.

At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.

Enter the attic.

The environment just changes in vain.

The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, causing him to frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.

There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Zhenmo Division.
