The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

"Hahahahahaha, happy, happy, these guys finally recognize the reality."

In Konoha Village, in the Hokage's office, Konoha's senior officials quickly learned about the changes in the three major ninja villages from the envoys stationed at the Five Shadows Conference.

For a moment, everyone quickly realized the purpose of the three great ninja villages.

It's nothing more than exchange for Konoha's protection.

Otherwise, when Uchiha Madara's plan really breaks out, Konoha may not care about their life or death.

As for what Uchiha Madara's plan is, although these people don't know it, this does not prevent them from secretly guessing.

If it was just for revenge against Konoha, controlling so many tailed beasts would not only be a help to Madara, but would be a burden.

Moreover, Madara did not seem to show a strong desire for revenge against Konoha in these several attacks. Instead, he clearly demonstrated his purpose - to collect tailed beasts.

All these things will naturally make people think too much, and it also contributed to the three major ninja villages finally bowing to Konoha.

"Okay everyone. The three great ninja villages have only temporarily bowed to us. It is not certain what benefits the village can get from this favorable situation." Hanzo seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, even though he was shouting.

Elders, but looking at the cheerful look on his face, it is obvious that the joy in his heart is no less than that of the elders.

The elders obviously noticed this, so they didn't pay attention to the Hokage's shouting. Instead, they discussed passionately what the village should do to take advantage of this.

It's no wonder that Hanzo and the elders are proud, it's actually because sometimes political inertia is a very terrifying force, which is the so-called "established law", "convention", etc. You can call it whatever you want.

Once this inertia is formed, it is not easy to break.

In fact, Hanzo is also very clear that the system of the five major ninja villages of the five major countries is a system with inherent flaws. The five major ninja villages that grew barbarically in the original time and space are the most typical example.

Although Hanzo has been promoting a series of concepts such as "development" and "restriction of force" in the ninja world, he hopes that the ninja world can maintain upward inertia without the suppression of absolutely strong force, and will not fall into the original time and space.

dead end.

But Hanzo finally used various means to tie the Kirigakure village to Konoha's chariot as Konoha's final guarantee. This is not a sign of lack of confidence.

But now, this delicate situation gave Hanzo a new idea.

"Perhaps we can also try the method of peaceful evolution and unification..." Looking at the elders discussing with each other in front of him, Hanzo secretly pondered in his heart.

The Five Kage Conference system has brought the five major shinobi villages into one system to a certain extent. Even this simple system has alleviated the struggle between the villages to a certain extent.

But now, with the three major ninja villages bowing to Konoha, Hanzo suddenly felt that he might be able to try a path from the Alliance to the Federation.

Madara's plan has now reached the final stage. Unless it is a coincidence, in Hanzo's opinion, Madara's problem can still be solved with a big battle.

It's just a matter of who the final opponent is.

If the operation is good, Hanzo only needs to face Uchiha Madara, and if something unexpected happens, the worst result is that Princess Kaguya is released.

But no matter what, Hanzo can take the opportunity to integrate the ninja world into an alliance, and after the war, transform this wartime alliance into a normal alliance.

Once the alliance is formed, Hanzo will have time to take advantage of Konoha's various advantages and penetrate other ninja villages. If done well, he can transform the alliance into a federation, thus achieving de facto unification.

Of course, by then, these five major countries, which are still nominally standing above the five great ninja villages, will naturally withdraw from the stage of history.

The federal mechanism, in terms of central power, is definitely not as unified as force, but it is worse than stability.

Hanzo has always felt that the ninja world is united purely by force, so once this power disappears, the ninja world will almost inevitably fall apart again.

This is also the reason why Hanzo has always disagreed with Madara's ideas before. Hashirama is too gentle, and Madara is too radical. In his opinion, their ideas will easily fail if they are not suppressed by strong power.

Hanzo still hopes to find the most stable path, even if the central government of the federation will gradually be sidelined due to repeated foolish moves in the future, and even exist in name only.

But as long as the concept of unity is formed, it will be difficult for this continent to fall into fragmentation for a long time in the future. Even if it splits accidentally, it will eventually reunite after a long period of separation.

But now, Hanzo feels that this is an opportunity.

"Hey, this is too far-fetched." After his thoughts wandered for a moment, Hanzo suddenly came back to his senses: "We can prepare in advance in this regard. No matter what, we must first crack down on Madara and Black Zetsu's plan.

Only then will it make sense to say this.”

Thinking of this, Hanzo immediately looked at the elders, and then pressed his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.

Seeing this, the elders who were still having a heated discussion all became quiet one by one and looked at Hanzo.

Hanzo cleared his throat first, and then said: "Okay everyone, we can discuss these things later. If you have any ideas, you can come and talk to me at any time, but don't forget, there is still a threat hidden in

It’s in the dark.”

Hanzo's words meant something, and the elders all understood what he meant.

Now Uchiha Madara is still watching in the dark. If Konoha wants to reap this benefit, it must first solve the side effects of this benefit.

"Hokage-sama, Uchiha Madara seems to have no intention of taking action recently." Kurama Solan asked Hanzo.

Before Hanzo returned, Uchiha Madara would make big news almost every few days, and he was very active.

But now, several days have passed since the battle between Hanzo and Madara, but Uchiha Madara seems to have disappeared from the world, without any movement at all, which made everyone feel uncomfortable for a while.

"Just because he hasn't made any moves doesn't mean he's given up." Hanzo chuckled, and then said: "I understand Madara's temperament. He is dormant like this, so he could only be planning a big move, and the village cannot slack off.

In the near future, the village's alert level will be raised to the highest level, and you must not be negligent."

After all, Uchiha Madara was once a high-ranking official in Konoha, and the elders present were all very aware of how terrifying Madara was. After hearing Hanzo’s reminder, some of the slightly complacent elders also woke up and responded one by one: “Don’t worry.

Come on, Hokage-sama."

Hanzo couldn't help but feel very satisfied when he saw this, and then nodded and said to the elders: "Okay, let's get here first today, everyone should disperse."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

The elders immediately stood up one by one and left the Hokage's office one after another.
