What's Up with This Puppet Master?

"Little ghost, can you change the conditions?"

At this time, the old man from the Hyuga family asked again.

Long Er smiled lightly and ignored it.

He has already promised the conditions, and whether he agrees or not is up to Konoha, and he does not accept bargaining.

The old man of Hyuga's family didn't care, and said with a light smile, "This is a favorable condition for you."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the people around him, and continued: "If, I mean if, if we promise to use the lives of 310 companions to kill them, what kind of people do you think we will take to kill them?"

Before Long Er could answer, he said the answer first.

"Someone who has committed a blunder without suffocating death, who has a bad past and who has met the minimum standard of qualification."

"What I want is to kill the murderer who killed my companions. As long as they are ninjas who are still serving Konoha, I don't care about their past."

Ryuuji finally spoke, and he emphasized the words 'ninjas who are still serving Konoha'.

It means, as long as it is a ninja that belongs to Konoha at the moment, don't care about his past or ability, but don't try to use the prisoners in the prison to make up the number.

"That's natural." The old man of Hyuga's family took it for granted: "If Konoha will agree to your conditions, naturally he won't play tricks on this point, but I have a better proposal here, do you want to listen?"

Looking at the flames of battle in the city, Long Er was silent for a moment, then said: "... Let's talk about it!"

"How about exchanging the lives of us old men for the lives of those young people?"

"no!"

Before Ryuuji could answer, the young people on Konoha's side all clamored.

The old man of the Hyuga clan ignored them, just looked at Ryuji who turned around suddenly with a smile.

"……you sure?"

Long Er's eyes trembled.

He looked around, and none of the old people who were dragged into the water by the old Hinata family objected.

"What's so uncertain about it?"

The old man of Hyuga's family said freely: "We are old bones, and we don't know when we will die. Isn't it a good deal to exchange more than 30 of our old lives for more than 300 young people's lives?"

What a bargain!

If all human lives are equal, then this is nothing.

But as sad as it is, human life is not equal.

These old people who have dominated the ninja world since before the establishment of Konoha, and have survived the end of the Warring States Rebellion, World War I, and World War II, were all masters of masters.

Their rich life experience and experience can provide valuable advice to the village, and the skills they have learned throughout their lives can enable future generations to grow up on the shoulders of giants from the very beginning.

Even at the age when they are about to enter the soil, the last residual heat can erupt when the village is in crisis, just like it is now.

Konoha can have what it is today, thanks to these old people.

The 310 Chunin with bad personalities, rusty past, and no future potential can't be compared with the more than 30 old people here.

"Okay, as long as you all commit suicide, I will stop immediately!"

After getting the answer, Long Er agreed without hesitation.

What is there to hesitate about?

Not only is the existence value of these old people far greater than the 310 ordinary ninjas, even in terms of status, the two are not the same.

Using the lives of 310 ordinary Chunin to avenge their companions and using the lives of more than 30 high-ranking old men who were regarded as treasures by the enemy to avenge their companions—these two situations, just spread, are not of the same magnitude at all of.

"No, I don't agree!"

The young people headed by Namikaze Minato stood up and stopped them: "How can we let the seniors who have dedicated their lives to the village..."

Read books and draw cash points every day!

"Shut up!"

The old man known as the little old man glared at the young people around him angrily.

"You think I've lived enough, old man, to want to die, don't you?"

"If you are more up-to-date, old man, I will not guard Konoha in this way. You are useless to guard the village, but you have the face to stop us. Do you just want to eat the old man's spittle and crutches?"

This old man with a short stature was ruthless in his words, scolding Konoha and the others so ashamed that they couldn't lift their heads.

Seeing this, he turned to Long Er and looked it over from top to bottom.

"It's such a young brat, what a frightening young man!" The little old man took a deep breath, and continued: "Little ghost, remember your promise at last, otherwise I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost."

Leaving a harsh word, he stretched out his hand and pressed lightly on his heart.

Then, his body shook and he fell straight down.

"senior!!!"

A group of young people in Konoha cried and cried.

The rest of the old people shook their heads and sighed.

"It would actually fall into the implementation of this kind of agreement without the slightest guarantee..." The old man of Hinata's family looked at Hiruzaru Sarutobi, and said: "Little monkey, and you, we must remember today's shame well. In this ninja world , If you are weak, you are guilty. You must become stronger, otherwise what happened today will happen again in the future."

"Today's shame must be remembered in our hearts, seniors go well!"

Sarutobi Hiri knelt down and bowed to the old man, and the others followed suit.

Looking at the group of young people on the roof, the old people laughed heartily.

"Sarutobi, you have to remember that only by protecting the young people can the future of the village be guaranteed. This little ghost of Sand Hidden has proved this to you, so keep it in mind!"

After saying this sentence, the old people stopped talking and tried their best to leave this world happily.

The young people who were still alive cried loudly.

Looking at this scene, Long Er felt a little complicated.

Is this the will of fire!

Traveling from his previous life, he deeply understands how important the well-recognized core values ​​and program of action are to an organization.

But it's just knowing it, and experiencing it personally, this is also the first time.

(When I go back, I will figure out the will of the sand.)

He took a deep breath and said, "Since you have shown your sincerity, let me show some sincerity too!"

As his words fell, the puppet army that attacked and destroyed the city flew back to the floating continent one after another.

At the same time, a puppet landed beside Long Er and flew up with him.

"The rest of the indemnity is limited to you to pay within tomorrow. If you can't pay before tomorrow, then your ancestors will all die in vain."

Chapter 180 Real Estate

As the clouds surged, the behemoth pressing down on Konoha quietly left.

People looked up at the sky bathed in the warm light, and the white snow drifted down, and the heavy objects in their hearts also quietly left with the continents in the sky, and they relaxed fiercely.

"woooooo"

Some people fell to their knees, covering their faces and weeping.

Then, like an infectious disease, it spread throughout the entire village.

No one can tell whether these are tears of sadness or tears of joy for the rest of the life after the catastrophe.

Or maybe both.

But Konoha's sky is surrounded by sadness.

In Hokage's office.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi saw the current situation of the village in his eyes, with a sad expression on his face.

He is also sad, but as Hokage, he doesn't even have time to be sad.

After this battle, Konoha suffered heavy losses.

More than half of the buildings in the urban area were damaged, and there were more than [-] guards, including a large number of elite ninjas. This made the advantage of the front line against Yanyin Village return to balance, and the already clear war situation became gloomy again.

Not only that, but he also has to consider threats from other ninja villages.

Leaving aside other small and medium ninja villages, the other five ninja villages, sand hidden, cloud hidden, and fog hidden

Sand Hidden doesn't have to think about it for a short time, if Sand Hidden wants to go to war, he won't retreat this time.

Although Yunyin was disabled half a year ago, he still retained a considerable degree of strength, and after another half a year of recuperation, his current strength is even stronger than that of Yanyin and Konoha.

As for Wuyin Village, they also ended the civil war not long ago.

Although their strength has been greatly reduced due to the perennial civil war, judging from the last attack on the Kingdom of Wind, their strength is still higher than that of Yan Yin and Konoha.

That is to say, Sagashi is currently the strongest in the ninja world on paper, followed by Yunyin and Kirigakure, and Konoha and Iwagakure are at the bottom.

But Konoha and Yanyin, who are at the bottom of the list, are still fighting in Jiaozuo.

In this case, Yunyin and Wuyin have a high probability of taking advantage of the fire.

Especially Yunyin Village.

This village is ambitious and aggressive.

Betrayed and failed by allies in the war half a year ago, he will definitely not let it go.

These are still things that haven't happened, just prevent them from happening.

But the floating continent hidden in the sand is a real threat.

Today, Xuanqi Ryuji can drive the floating continent above Konoha to force Konoha to bow his head and admit his mistake, and he can do the same next time.

If they do not find a solution or a way to cope, they are forever at the mercy of others.

"But how can we solve it?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked out the window, his mind immersed in the huge knowledge base in his mind, hoping to find a solution.

Then, he did find it.
