Konoha's traitor master

Chapter 111

The morning meeting of Konoha high-level officials the next day was very crowded.

Except for Orochimaru and Jiraiya, Minato also made a rare appearance at the meeting.

The third generation did not always have the idea of ​​excluding Minato from high-level meetings. After all, Minato was still his most valued successor.

Aoba specially dressed up as a root leader to attend the meeting.

Normally, he is Tsunade's assistant.

But today involves two important things related to the roots, so Aoba changed into the vest of the leader of the roots.

Originally it was only about the orphanage, but yesterday he also received information from the root, one of which needed to be discussed at the meeting.

"Does Koala have any important information for coming here today?" Sandai asked kindly, holding his pipe in his mouth.

The third generation has been in a very happy mood recently. After leaving office, he got rid of the heavy daily work. After all, Tsunade did most of it.

It's just that in his opinion, Tsunade has a lot of daily tasks that are not very detailed.

Being young, he can understand.

And the third generation also enjoys the process of checking and filling in the gaps for the younger successors.

Of course, from Tsunade's point of view, this old man is too picky and meddlesome.

If you don’t agree on big things, just focus on the little things.

"The Anbu have two things to report today." Aoba said in a different voice. This morning meeting was not a closed-door meeting. At least the ANBU guarding the meeting were actually listening.

Therefore, this is partly why Naruto's bodyguards have always been regarded as successor candidates.

"Yeah." Sandai nodded, actually feeling a little surprised.

At present, only external business remains.

After the establishment of the Ninja Alliance, the current main theme of ninjas is peace and cultivation.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any major issues that need to be discussed at a meeting so soon.

"According to the news from Sand Hidden Village and Iwagakure Village, Kawakuni and Grass Country sent envoys to the two countries respectively." Aoba first reported important external intelligence.

The reason why two small countries send envoys to two big countries is obvious.

War between big countries and suffering for small countries is the norm in the ninja world.

It's just that this time, the injuries to Kusano Kuni and Kawano Kuni were a bit serious.

The source of this pain is the trap.

During the Third Ninja War, Konoha's main tactic was to lay the ground with traps.

Among them, the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water relies on the local territory of the Kingdom of Fire to build trap positions.

In the Kingdom of Thunder, due to the tacit understanding between the two countries, the intensity of the battle is not strong, and Konoha's traps are mainly laid on the border.

But the battlefields of the Kingdom of Earth and the battlefields of the Kingdom of Wind mainly lay traps on the territories of two small countries between the big countries.

A large number of traps have paralyzed the Country of Grass and Country of Sichuan.

Ordinary people basically dare not leave the city, as there are dangers everywhere in the wild.

Among them, Ikawa Country was the worst. As the battlefield where Konoha first fought, the price of trap materials had not yet increased, so the traps were extremely dense.

After the war, Konoha troops evacuated from Kawa no Kuni in accordance with the agreement signed with Sunagakure Village.

The trap of Kawa no Kuni was not cleared.

The situation was similar in the Country of Grass. Aoba did not deliberately dismantle the trap when he withdrew his troops.

The two small countries definitely want to entrust Futu and Futu to help dismantle the trap. This is related to Konoha's border defense, so it needs to be decided by the Hokage.

"How long will it take to dismantle the traps in the country?" Tsunade first asked with concern about the situation in the country.

When Konoha fought against the Kirigakure Village, they moved a large number of civilians on the border inland to free up space to play with the Kingdom of Water, so there were many traps left in the territory.

These traps must be cleared, otherwise civilians will not be able to live a normal life.

In this world with a very strange technology tree, many civilians are still living off the mountain.

"Minato?" Sandai turned to Minato who was standing aside and asked.

Dismantling the trap also involves the border defense map, which needs to be kept secret, so the ANBU leader is currently doing it.

"It is estimated that it will take half a year to dismantle the traps left on the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water." Minato reported truthfully.

Dismantling traps is not an easy task, which is why Konoha did not remove the trap materials when they retreated.

Konoha's trap deployment map only marked a general area, and many of the specific details were inaccurate.

During the war, the buildings were demolished relatively quickly, mainly due to the large number of people and various ninjutsu.

But now is the time of peace, the troops have been disbanded, and several ANBU teams are dismantling them with the ninjas who have accepted the border defense mission.

The number of people is not large, and they cannot use ninjutsu excessively.

On the one hand, it is a chakra problem, and on the other hand, ninjutsu causes too much damage to the environment. If the traps are dismantled but the civilians are left in ruins, then Konoha's reputation will be completely ruined.

There is another key issue. Trap materials are valuable now.

Although after the establishment of the Ninja Alliance, the four countries joined forces to stabilize the price of trap materials, they are still valuable.

Moreover, wasting manpower to dismantle traps is already a very expensive thing.

Konoha also has to pay for sending missions to ninjas in the village.

For tasks with a high risk factor, such as dismantling traps, the rewards are not low.

The recovered trap materials can somewhat subsidize the rewards of the mission.

"As soon as possible, the daimyo has sent messages several times." Tsunade mentioned to Minato.

It's normal for daimyo to be concerned. The country relies on tax revenue and large areas of land are vacant, which will do great harm to the Fire Nation's finances.

Then Tsunade directly issued an order to deal with the information from Kawanoguni and Grassland.

"Koala, you send a message to the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth. Konoha does not want to see a single force with more than 100 people and a total of more than 500 troops appearing in the Kingdom of Kawa and the Kingdom of Grass."

"Minato, the ANBU will monitor the border closely and don't allow ninjas from both countries to take the opportunity to infiltrate into the territory."

"I obey," Aoba and Minato responded.

This type of matter is a routine matter for the Hokage. Of course, Tsunade has the right to give direct orders, and the third generation will generally not jump out to object.

In this matter, Tsunade did not do anything too extreme, but limited the size of the demolition brigade of Futu and Japan due to border security.

If you are more ruthless, you will directly force the two small countries to spend money to hire Konoha ninjas to carry out the demolition.

If other countries provide money, Konoha's demolition would definitely be very efficient.

After one matter was resolved, everyone turned their attention to Qingye again.

"Another thing at the root is a proposal for a Konoha orphanage." Aoba submitted the copied plan to the senior officials present.

After the plan was distributed, it quickly attracted the attention of all senior executives, and the only sound left in the office was the sound of turning pages.

Aoba pressed the switch on the mask, exposing his chin and mouth.

This was custom-made by a skilled craftsman.

He picked up the teacup, blew on it, and drank the tea slowly.

He could foresee that there would be a battle for interests later.

Aoba couldn't think of a reason why Konoha wouldn't approve this plan.

The entire plan is zero cost, high return, and risk-free.

First of all, there are a large number of children with ninja talents, and they are orphans and are very easy to train.

In addition, since it is released in the form of tasks, Konoha can also earn a lot of money from it.

Finally, once this plan is implemented, the level of the orphanage will definitely increase.

There is a high probability that it will become a unit at the same level as Konoha Hospital and Konoha Ninja School. At the same time, there will be many more positions for caring for and training orphans.

Talent, money, and power are all objects of competition among senior executives.

"This matter is of great importance. Minato will be responsible for screening the identity of the orphans." The third generation spoke first, starting the war.
