Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit

Separated from the three little ones, Yuya hummed a song and came to Senju Hashirama's mansion to find Uzumaki Mito.

It's the end of the year and it's time to pay New Year's greetings.

By the way, please also ask Mito Uzumaki to contact the people of the Uzumaki clan. The war cannot continue. The war must be ended next year. You can negotiate the specific conditions yourself. It must be ended! Otherwise, I will give you the aid I gave you!

Mito Uzumaki agreed.

People from the Uzumaki clan are dying every day.

Don't think that naval battles are not dangerous if everyone has ships. In fact, this is the most dangerous thing.

When the boat capsized and was hit by other rampaging boats, the man was instantly killed.

Therefore, every time a person dies in a naval battle, a whole ship will be killed.

Of course, this is true for both the Uzumaki clan and Kirigakure.

What Uzumaki Mito is dissatisfied with is the people in power of the Uzumaki clan. Now they are staying well behind the country of Uzumaki. Is it all him who has to sacrifice his life? The civilians and low-level ninjas of the country of Uzumaki do it. Are they human?

Why are you so cruel!

Those who died were all members of the Uzumaki clan!

However, there was one thing that Uzumaki Mito cared about.

"But little Yuya... you have been selling weapons to Kirigakure Village behind your back. This may make the Uzumaki clan have a bad opinion of you..."

Youya waved his hand: "It's okay, I don't care what they think of me. In my opinion, there is a problem with the way he handles his own position in the Country of Whirlpool.

What I say next may make you unhappy, but it is the truth.

Among the largest countries in the entire ninja world, the Country of Uzumaki is adjacent to Konoha, and it is also the only country with the shortest distance between Kirigakure Village and Konoha's maritime trade route.

If the Kingdom of Whirlpool continues as before...

Then their ending will definitely be miserable. "

You Ya originally wanted to say something like overestimating one's capabilities.

But after thinking about it, Uzumaki Mito was also a Uzumaki clan member after all, so he let it go.

Even in the original Naruto Chronicles, the Uzumaki clan did not have good relations with other countries except Konoha.

In fact, even Konoha did not send troops when the Uzumaki Kingdom was attacked. This led to the Uzumaki clan members preferring to go to the Rain Country rather than Konoha when they fled. (Nagato’s parents: Who will cue me?)

Although there may be many reasons for Konoha at that time, if you really want to say it, even if Konoha, controlled by Sarutobi Hiruzen, does not support the country of Uzumaki with force, even if it sends a ship to pick up people for retreat, the Uzumaki clan will not be Only those three or two were killed, and she and her mother would not have to leave their homes and go to the Country of Grass to be used as blood packs by the beasts of the Country of Grass.

It's impossible for you to say that Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't consider this.

One of the most typical examples is...

Naruto and his mother Kushina were taken to Konoha from the Country of Uzumaki.

Of course, it may also be related to the fact that Uzumaki Mito was too old at the time and was about to reach his end.

In short, because of its geographical location and size, Whirlpool Country cannot follow the development route of a great power like Konoha.

In total, it's just a place with a bigger butt. Where can it develop further?

But again, the Kingdom of Whirlpool cannot be destroyed.

The country of Uzumaki is the buffer zone between Konoha and Kirigakure.

There was no way Yuya would let them be captured by Kirigakure Village.

Of course Uzumaki Mito also knows this, but the problem now is...

Those bastards from the Uzumaki clan didn't listen to what she said...

They were thinking about how to get more weapons, get more big ships, and send more people to the sea to fight Kirigakure all day long.

There is even a feeling that the Uzumaki clan will gain great benefits if they win this war.

Mito Uzumaki was also dissatisfied, but what could she do?

It was impossible for her to leave Konoha after Senju Hashirama's death. Her influence was greatly reduced after Senju Hashirama's death. Why did the Uzumaki clan come here every year in the past? Why didn't they come here in the past few years except when they wanted to ask for something?

Because Uzumaki Mito no longer has any influence on Konoha.

Even if she is the Jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi, if she does not have the ability to decide the direction and direction of Konoha, not many people will take her seriously.

Uzumaki Mito sighed helplessly. Her situation was not good either. Although she also wanted to end the war...

She didn't know what to do.

Yuya raised his head and looked at Uzumaki Mito and asked, "Do you really want to end this war? I can help you."

Uzumaki Mito became more energetic: "Are you willing to give up aid to Kirigakure Village?"

Youya smiled and shook his head: "Master's wife, you have always been very smart, why are you so naive now?

I sold weapons to Kirigakure Village purely because I wanted to stock them, and those weapons were all sold at a discount.

If I don't sell to Kirigakure, Kirigakure's people will use their own resources to produce weapons.

After all, it is also a shinobi village in the Kingdom of Water, so there will be no shortage of basic resources. "

As soon as Yuya said this, Uzumaki Mito understood that instead of Yuya's help from both sides, Kirigakure Village did not need Yuya's assistance at all.

It's just that the price of Yuya is lower than the price of the ninja produced by their own village in Kirigakure, so Kirigakure just buys it.

If Yuya withdraws these weapons, Kirigakure will use his own, and the situation will not change.

Uzumaki Mito was curious: "How are you going to end this war?"

Yuya looked at Uzumaki Mito and fell silent. Uzumaki Mito looked confused, why didn't he say anything?

And the atmosphere gradually became weird.

Mito Uzumaki is indeed as smart as Yuya said.

Even if Youya didn't say a word, she thought of the key...

"You, you want...you want to assassinate those elders of the Uzumaki clan?!" Uzumaki Mito looked at Yuya in surprise.

Yuya pursed his lips, adjusted his posture and bowed his head to Uzumaki Mito: "This is the fastest, has the least subsequent impact, and is... the best way for Konoha."

It's not that the Kingdom of Whirlpool cannot survive, but for Youya, this war is actually unnecessary.

Even if you don’t charge tolls in the Kingdom of Whirlpool, I can take you away. It’s not like you don’t have no resources in the country. As long as you hand over your military, public opinion, people’s livelihood, infrastructure, and the right to use resources, I will take you to the Country of Whirlpool. It's not impossible to make a fortune.

I think about your ridiculous toll every day. How much can you earn from this toll? !

But it was impossible for Youya to say that openly.

Because Konoha itself is still fighting, and Konoha itself is not at peace, then Yuya can't do many things.

To put it more bluntly, those large-scale infrastructure projects require large-scale manpower and material resources.

And one ninja is worth at least hundreds of people.

Now that such a large force of manpower is trapped in the battlefield between Konoha and Kumogakure, large-scale infrastructure construction cannot be started.

Not to mention what if other villages take the opportunity to attack once construction begins?

Therefore, many things can only be done in peacetime. As long as the war lasts for one day, many things cannot be done.

Of course, although he wanted to stop the war between the Country of Uzumaki and Kirigakure Village, Uzumaki Mito was a member of the Country of Uzumaki and the Uzumaki clan anyway.

Although Yuya could not say hello to Uzumaki Mito and let Uchiha Kagami lead the ANBU to assassinate the elders of the Uzumaki clan, Uzumaki Mito would definitely feel very resentful afterwards.

It would be better to point it out directly from the beginning.

Yuya lowered his head and apologized to Uzumaki Mito: "This is the way to solve the war in the shortest time..."

After saying that, You Ya sighed helplessly and said, "It's okay if you don't want to, Master. I won't force you."

Uzumaki Mito's expression was uncertain. She really didn't expect Yuya to give her such a difficult multiple-choice question.

but……

As Youya said...

This method can indeed end the war in the shortest time.

However……

Her last name is Uzumaki too...

In the end, Yuya still didn't get Uzumaki Mito's consent, so Yuya could only sigh helplessly and left the mansion.

It's the 21st year of Konoha, and this year's New Year's Eve is still nothing major. Until Yuya is not ready to focus on culture and entertainment, New Year's Eve is just an ordinary day for many people in Konoha.

At most, eat more good food on this day.

When technology advances in the future, wireless signals are spread, and everyone has TV for entertainment, New Year's Eve will become lively.

Now...

Let’s think about what to do in the new year.

After Yuya completed the year-end accounting, he directly announced that except for the ninjas of the Shimura clan, everyone else would receive a year-end bonus.

The Shimura clan and their ninjas had all their salaries and bonuses deducted this month.

You said it was a coincidence, but the amount happened to be more than five million.

The Shimura clan and other clans don't know that the golden shoes that Yuya gave you before were not a sign of cowardice at all, but a real sign to tell the Shimura clan that I will give you a gift. This is a courtesy, but I won't do it next. It will give you face.

Everyone knows that you should be polite before fighting.

Just when the Shimura clan thought that Yuya would deal with them like he dealt with the Sarutobi clan, Yuya did not summon the businessmen, but wrote an open letter to Senju Tobirama.

What is an open letter?

It is a letter that will be registered in the newspaper and be read by all the people in Konoha.

In the letter, Yuya used gorgeous words to praise Shimura Danzo's spiritual attack, and also affirmed Shimura Danzo's achievements.

Therefore, Yuya applied to let Danzo Shimura lead a brigade of the Konoha Ninja Army.

To put it simply, Yuya said that you Shimura Danzo did a good job this time. If you think the second generation has made such a big contribution, why don’t you get a promotion or something? !

As soon as this open letter came out, other families didn't understand it yet, but the Shimura family understood it first.

Since the letter is public, Danzo Shimura is now...

Wasn't he picked out alone?

There is nothing wrong with the letter itself.

The only problem is...

The entire article praises Shimura Danzo as a person.

Even when he asked for promotion, he only named Danzo Shimura.

What about the rest? Did Danzo Shimura lead the attack on Kumogakure alone?

no.

But Youya only named him.

There is no need to ask more about what you want to do.

But how will the Shimura clan take over?

People are praising you, and they are also talking about promoting Danzo Shimura. If you target Yuya, you can't justify it.

Speaking of which, I would also like to thank the Hyuga clan.

The old guy posed a difficult problem for Youya and wanted to play marriage politics, but Youya was forced to give in.

Because of this, Yuya couldn't take advantage of the situation and slap Hinata with his backhand.

This inspired Yuya to choose to retreat in order to advance and break through at a single point this time when playing against the Shimura clan.

Can't you Shimura Danzo do that?

OK~

Let you lead a team alone and get promoted!

There's nothing wrong with that, right? You, Shimura, can't say bad things to me just because I praise you or flatter you, right?

That doesn't make sense, right?

This move was disgusting, but Yuya felt very comfortable.

There is actually one bad thing about flattery, that is, if the person you are flattering has real qualities, it may be self-defeating and make the person you flatter him turn all the pursuit of him into reality.

To put it simply, Yuya said that Shimura Danzo was too awesome, and such an awesome person should directly command an army!

Then Danzo really caught on, and after leading the army, he really consolidated his position, and achieved corresponding results or even better.

Then all the admiration for Shimura Danzo now is what he deserves, and his reputation will reach an extremely terrifying level in Konoha.

When the time comes, with the push from the Shimura family, Danzo Shimura may be able to take over directly.

Doesn't it look wonderful?

Doesn’t it look like Yuya might screw up this move?

Not really.

Putting aside the fact that Danzo Shimura went to attack the Kumogakure village, it was not his fault alone. He just led the team, and there were also high-ranking figures like Koharu and Mito Monobu in the team. .

Just talking about the nature of this matter, Danzo Shimura wouldn't be able to praise Yuya enough.

If Shimura Danzo really led a team alone when he attacked Kumogakure, then you can think about the team led by Senju Tobirama and the team led by Danzo, which one is more attractive to Kumogakure. The third generation Raikage who has just taken office will determine which team he will target as his main attack target.

Once Yuya's flattery works, let's not talk about Danzo Shimura's coveting of the position of Hokage~

First think of a way to survive under the Third Raikage.

What's more, since Youya has decided to win, he will definitely do more than just this one thing~

In mid-January of Konoha 21, after Yuya wrote the open letter praising Shimura Danzo in the newspaper at the beginning of the month, Yuya once again drafted and published a paper called "On the consequences of Danzo-sama's raid on Kumogakure." "Significant Impact" article.

I won’t mention the content of this article for now, but the beginning of the article is very interesting. It directly puts the decision-making, determination, goals, routes, surprise attacks, and a series of decisions to deal with this raid in the Shimuradan hideout. superior.

Yes, he made all the decisions alone, so the credit belongs to him alone.

The so-called analysis later is just a smoke bomb to attract the villagers of Konoha to watch the discussion and praise and kill Shimura Danzo.

The key point is the opening paragraph, which directly attributes this incident to Shimura Danzo alone.

Therefore, when the Shimura family was still hesitating whether they should come out to clarify, and then contact the families in the village to lower their stance and express that everyone deserves the credit for this incident, Yuya directly blocked their escape route.

In late January of the 21st year of Konoha, Kumogakure Village attacked Konoha's front line. The Third Raikage went crazy and led a group of Kumogakure madmen to desperately trade their lives with Shimura Danzo.

Senju Tobirama kept trying to stop him, eventually resulting in a casualty ratio of 800:1,000.

Konoha lost more than 800 ninjas. The clothes of Kumogakure's madmen were all filled with detonating talismans. Their main purpose was to take away Shimura Danzo even if their hands were dead.

Senju Tobirama was finally convinced.

This group of people in Yunyin really don't take their own lives seriously.

But they Konoha can't play like this.

Why are they in Konoha fighting so hard with Kumogakure?

Wouldn't it be better to retreat? !

All Konoha troops withdrew from the Kingdom of Iron and returned to the border of the Kingdom of Fire.

The Third Raikage's desperate attack also achieved results, forcing Konoha back to its own country.

The Third Raikage instantly became famous in Kumogakure.

But this time the news came back to Konoha Village, Yuya smiled slightly, knowing that this would be the case.

So, when the news that those Kumogakure ninjas tried their best to kill Shimura Danzo, resulting in the death of hundreds of ninjas on the front line, spread back to the village, all the previous publicity turned into a boomerang.

Although Yuya knows that the reason why the Third Raikage is so desperate is because Kumogakure Village is currently in chaos. It has just experienced civil strife and was attacked by Danzo Shimura. He is in urgent need of someone who can boost domestic morale and bring everyone in Kumogakure Village together. The events condensed into a strand to stabilize the interior of Kumogakure Village and also stabilize his position as the Third Raikage.

Therefore, this lifeless war will definitely be fought.

But the villagers of Konoha didn't know that.

They only knew that Danzo Shimura's sneak attack on Kumo Hidden Village caused the madmen in Kumo Hidden Village to fight for their lives with Konoha, and hundreds of ninjas died in Konoha.

God knows if any of their own family members are in here.

Suddenly, there were many more voices discussing Danzo in the Konoha village.

However, because of Yuya’s previous publicity, now we can only say that Danzo’s merits outweigh his faults.

But it was enough for Youya.

After vigorously promoting your deeds, you ended up like this? How funny.

The best way to defeat the trick of flattery is to catch the flattery and then do better.

The next best thing is to immediately publicly announce that you are not that good. Don't have too high expectations to reduce the popularity.

The worst option is to ignore it and allow public opinion to ferment.

It’s not that the Shimura clan doesn’t want to cool down the heat.

Just when he was still hesitating, Yuya put Shimura Danzo on the fire.

In the end, Yunyin Village went crazy for some reason and fought a life-threatening battle. The slogan was to kill Shimura Danzo.

This was going to end in death. There was no need for Konoha to fight hard in this tough battle, so they retreated strategically.

But the villagers of Konoha don't care about this. If you retreat, Konoha will lose this game.

They are diodes. Danzo Shimura makes a sneak attack. If he succeeds, he wins.

Now that Konoha's large forces have retreated, they have lost.

If you praise it, it will backfire.

Where have these families who came from the war years seen this kind of method?

They suddenly knew more about Youya.

And in Yuya's "one chat", he told Nara Shikaya that he got the inspiration from the fact that the Hyuga clan wanted to disgust him, but he couldn't retaliate, and the Hyuga clan became paralyzed.

Why didn’t we think of this inspiration?

Other families are also glaring at the Hyuga clan, looking at the good things you have done.

You Ya was watching the fun from the sidelines with a chuckle in his heart.

If you Hinata likes to disgust me, then I will disgust you too~ Let’s see who is more disgusting.

…

In early February of the 21st year of Konoha, another naval battle broke out between Kirigakure Village and Uzumaki Country. Kirigakure Village sank five large ships, and Uzumaki Country silenced three ships. In Uzumaki Country, more than 300 ninjas died, and in Kirigakure Village, more than 100 people died. Ninja.

When the news came back to Konoha, the villagers of Konoha felt nothing, but Mito Uzumaki couldn't sit still.

In the middle of the same month, Uzumaki Mito made a public statement in the Konoha Shinobi Newspaper, saying that the country of Uzumaki could no longer continue to fight Kirigakure Village.

He publicly scolded the elders of the Country of Whirlpool, saying that most of the people who died in the Country of Whirlpool were ninjas with civilian backgrounds.

Not many of the nobles of the Uzumaki clan died.

If the elders of the Uzumaki clan want to continue fighting, they should let their children go to the battlefield to fight the people of Kirigakure Village.

Once this article was published, it caused an uproar—in the country of Whirlpool.

Although Mito Uzumaki has little influence in Konoha, he still has influence in the Country of Uzumaki.

After all, he is married to the God of Ninja, and the God of Ninja who established the Kingdom of Whirlpool is like a god to the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

Now God's wife is speaking out publicly and what she says does make sense.

You have always disagreed with ending the war, but why didn't your children go to the battlefield? !

We are the ones working hard, and I don’t see you sharing a portion of the tolls with us!

At the end of February, Yuya came forward and invited the third generation Mizukage of Kirigakure Village to Konoha.

The Third Mizukage decided to give Yuya the face (mainly because the annual transaction volume of hundreds of millions is indeed worthy of this face) and came to Konoha.

Afterwards, Youya invited the leaders of the Whirlpool Kingdom.

Under Yuya's mediation, the two sides reached an agreement in early March of the 21st year of Konoha. The country of Uzumaki would compensate Kirigakure Village 100 million taels of war compensation, and the toll fee would be charged from a proportional rate to a large ship charging one hundred thousand taels. Tolls.

The two sides ceased fighting and restored peace.

The Third Mizukage won the war and gained prestige in Kirigakure Village, so he could concentrate on cleaning up the situation in Kirigakure Village.

As soon as the final results came out, many villagers in Konoha Village "suddenly" discovered...

Before it was Sunagakure and Yunin Village, now it is Kirigakure and the Country of Whirlpool...

Under You Ya's mediation, both pairs stopped fighting.

Is it possible...

And the fact is indeed what they thought.

In April of the 21st year of Konoha, Yuya invited Onoki, the third Tsuchikage, and the leader of Takigakure Village to come to Konoha for friendly negotiations.

The third Tsuchikage came to save face, but the Taki Ninja Village did not come.

Onoki was furious, but Yuya said it was okay, it was a small scene, a small scene.

Then he took out 100 million taels and sent people to the Country of Grass to find the leader of the Grass Ninja Village.

The temptation of 100 million taels was too great. The leader of the Grass Ninja Village did not resist and sent troops to sneak attack the country of Taki.

The two fronts of Taki Country were under pressure and had no choice but to send people to Konoha and Onoki for peace talks.

Later, the two sides reached a settlement, and the Third Tsuchikage Onoki did not back down. The country of Taki changed the toll to 500,000 ryo per trip.

Under this condition, Takino Country retreated quite a bit, but Takino Country also signed a memorandum with Yuya. When the war is over, Yuya needs to invest in the construction of a steel plant in Takino Country.

Of course Youya didn't refuse.

Investing in building a factory and using Takino Country's resources for production is such a good thing. Whoever refuses is an idiot.

As a result, in the entire ninja world, suddenly only Konoha and Kumogakure Village were still arguing, while other places stopped arguing...

From this time on, Yuya was paid attention to by Konoha and even all the countries in the ninja world.

Because they discovered that Youya had called the leaders of the two villages together, and they suddenly became unwilling to fight any more.

Later, after many conflicts were resolved by Youya, Youya gained titles such as "Messenger of Peace", "Son of the Sun Bringing Warmth", and "Spokesperson of the Goddess of Peace".

Youya was noncommittal about this. Just get used to nicknames.

This time the war between the Country of Uzumaki and Kirigakure Village can be resolved by Uzumaki Mito.

Because after Uzumaki Mito gave that speech, she changed Yua's previous proposal into her own proposal, saying that when necessary, she would arrange for someone to assassinate the leader of the Uzumaki clan.

Forcing the other party to come to Konoha and Kirigakure Village for peace talks.

Yes, what Uzumaki Mito did was to show that Yuya had never suggested using assassination methods against the elders of the Uzumaki Country. All of this was my suggestion, Uzumaki Mito.

For this, Youya could only feel grateful in his heart.

And Uzumaki Mito also smiled with relief after confirming that the war had really stopped.

It was just some insults, she didn't care.

Many years later, when it came to Uzumaki Mito who proposed the dark proposal of assassination, many historians believed that it was not Uzumaki Mito who came up with it himself, but someone must have been behind it.

Although various clues indicate that he should be one of the greatest Hokage in Konoha, second only to the work of the third generation Hokage Jinyuya of Senju Hashirama who changed the ninja world.

But as soon as this argument came out, the ancestors of the scholars who proposed this argument were greeted all over the world for eighteen generations.

How could our Third Hokage, Bai Yueguang, the protector of peace for everyone in the ninja world, be such a villain with a dark psychology? !

You must be mistaken!

Scholars argued hard, and even produced a bunch of evidence to prove that Uzumaki Mito was not the type to play conspiracies, and someone must have pointed her out.

In the end, the discussion went back and forth and a unanimous answer was reached.

It must have been the move that Senju Tobirama, who was still on the front line at the time, came back to give Uzumaki Mito.

What? How do you think Senju Tobirama can get back to the rear from the front line? !

Find out more about the clone technique and flying thunder god.

Well, it must be the Second Hokage, definitely not our sunny, gentle Yua-sama.

This chapter has 6700 words. I’m too lazy to divide it into chapters. Let’s just leave it at that. I thought I could finish the war today, but it seems I have to wait until tomorrow. [I haven’t saved the manuscript because I didn’t have time to type when I went to the factory. From now on, there should only be two updates a day. I’ll try my best to make three updates better, try my best]
