Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit.

In a dark underground space.

Danzo Shimura sat in the main seat with a calm expression.

At this moment, a total of four elders of the Shimura clan, the factory managers of the Shimura clan's three factories, and seven people who served as managers in the Konoha Ninja Army and the Hokage's office building gathered here.

An old man was the first to slam the table and said, "For so many years, the Shimura clan's annual dividends have not only not increased, but have been getting smaller every year!

You threw away this opportunity! Danzo! Don’t you have anything to say? ! "

Shimura Danzo raised his head slightly, looking at the elders of the Shimura clan in front of him, and said expressionlessly: "Blame me? In the past ten years, when have you ever really implemented my plan?"

What Shimura Danzo said was correct.

The problem is still the same as mentioned before.

It’s not that Youya didn’t offer generous conditions to the ninjas in Konoha Village.

For example, the Shimura clan.

After Danzo Shimura failed in the competition with Yuya for the position of Hokage before it even started, Yuya used the year-end dividends to tie all the ninjas of Konoha Village to his side, and naturally some people in the Shimura clan did not want to go against Yuya.

Afterwards, the factories owned by the Shimura clan gradually lost their profits, which made Danzo very anxious, but the fact was that he could not use his abilities to turn losses into profits.

As a result, the Shimura clan experienced some turmoil at this time.

Danzo naturally wanted to go against Yuya at this time.

In other words, he has never stood with Youya.

When Youya insisted on pushing forward the so-called moon landing plan, he wanted to take this opportunity to accuse Youya of acting on his own initiative and wasting the tax money paid by the villagers of Konoha Village.

But at that time Youya opened a gap.

In other words, it also gave the Shimura clan an opportunity.

Do you remember the Shimura clan members that Danzo Shimura spent a lot of effort to train in order to make a splash in the civil service exam organized by Youya?

If Yuya hadn't discovered something wrong with the list that year and changed the last question into an extremely difficult math problem, Shimura Danzo's plan would have succeeded.

Although Danzo Shimura's plan did not succeed, these people are undoubtedly capable.

When hiring people, Youya never considers which family they belong to - after all, it's useless to do so, and they have to be hired - well, in short, since these people from the Shimura clan who passed the civil service exam have passed, Youya is not going to leave them unemployed.

Such great cattle and horses, wouldn’t it be a pity not to use them?

After so many years, the kids who were teenagers before are now in their thirties.

And they were also promoted to management positions by Youya.

Simply put, each area of ​​Konoha Village now has a district chief, and there are fifty-seven districts in the inner city alone, not to mention the outer city.

The district chief is undoubtedly a big leader.

After all, the population of Konoha Village combined is more than 8 million, with more than 6 million people in the inner city. A district has at least more than 100,000 people. No matter how you look at it, a district chief is a very important position.

And these district heads You Ya will certainly not target them.

Unless they make mistakes or lose the struggle.

However, these don't matter to the people of the Shimura clan.

After all, whether they make mistakes or not and whether they succeed or fail in the struggle depends on their own abilities.

There is nothing to complain about if you don't have the ability.

As for the Shimura clan's meetings, these district heads are now naturally qualified to attend and even discuss them.

Then the problem is coming.

Where do these district heads get their power from?

Yes, it was given to them by Youya.

This is different from the fact that the elders of the Shimura clan are dissatisfied with the current situation of their family's gradual decline and the decreasing profits every year.

They very much agree with Youya's rule.

Therefore, in fact, in this moon landing event, they agreed that the Shimura clan would provide Yuya with land, funds, personnel and other support.

It’s just that the elders of the Shimura clan disagreed, and neither did Danzo Shimura, who made the final decision.

This is very similar to the voice within the Uchiha clan.

They all have the same powerful elders, and the same young generation has no ill feelings towards You Ya and can even be said to be very supportive of You Ya.

But after all, these people are old and have a lot of experience, and Uchiha Itachi has not grown up yet, so there is no way he can kill these old guys one by one.

Uh-huh, well, counting on Uchiha Itachi is a bit of a joke from hell.

and……

The internal instability of these families is what best suits Youya's hopes.

If these families are united as one, how can he weaken them and make them abandon their own families and focus on the overall situation of Konoha Village?

The only difference between the Uchiha and Shimura clans is that clan leader Uchiha Fugaku agreed to carry out reforms in Yuya's way - he had no choice but to agree, as all the young people in the clan had run away.

The younger generation of the Shimura clan had received sponsorship from their family before, so their food, clothing, housing and transportation were all provided by their family. They only needed to study every day, so they could not just walk away like the previous young people in the Uchiha clan.

The young people of the Uchiha clan do not owe the clan anything, but the young people of the Shimura clan do.

This is why they have to endure every time even if things are not to their liking.

But they have a solution:

Boil it.

All of you are so old. Within ten years, most of you will be dead. By then, we will be only in our forties, the best age to be officials. It will be just right for us to take over the family power.

So they remained silent this time.

But what they didn't expect was that the elders and the patriarch started arguing.

It is not difficult to understand what Danzo Shimura said. Although he always expressed his intention to completely oppose Yuya, the elders of the Shimura clan always felt that at least they could get an income at the end of every year, and it was not a small amount. In addition, in recent years, the Konoha Ninja Army has also opened up to their big families. Maybe Yuya just wanted to give in?

So every time they proposed something completely contrary to the will of Danzo Village and Yuya.

But now they no longer understand that it was because You Ya had been trying to appease them while pursuing his own plans over the past few years that this was possible.

If You Ya really didn't give anything, they might really start targeting You Ya.

But it’s too late to regret now. They did not participate in the moon landing, so they can’t even have a seat at the table for the subsequent profit sharing!

This is absolutely unacceptable to them.

So, they argued for a long time that day, and finally Shimura Danzo stopped them with a gloomy look on his face:

"Stop arguing! I have a plan..."
