The network of relationships among wealthy businessmen and powerful people is complex and huge.
At first, it may only be some upper-class people who have power or wealth who speak out, but when this point and this pole begin to explode, some close friends, families, financial groups, and political groups associated with the speakers also begin to express similar opinions. manner.
After all, they all represent interest groups and maintain a common attitude of advancing and retreating on many matters.
Besides, there is nothing wrong with the reason for speaking out this time.
Let me ask, before and after every large-scale ninja war, who is paying for it?
Before the war, they purchased ninja tools, large offensive and defensive equipment, many wartime medicines, etc.
Compensation for those who died after the war, the reconstruction of damaged homes, the training of a new round of ninjas, and so on! !
Aren’t they, the powerful people, and these wealthy businessmen paying for all of this?
But what about the rewards?
What kind of reward did they get?
No, nothing!
If this is a just crusade and a battle to protect the Kingdom of Thunder, then that's it.
However, according to the question from Daimyo Nishitani of Yuno Country, it was clearly Kumogakure Village who was the first to send ninja troops into the territory of Yuno Country this time, and in turn caused the casualties of the [Thunder Light Regiment]! !
The current actions of Yunyin Village are fighting for their own dignity and revenge after the intruders were destroyed, and have nothing to do with the interests of the Kingdom of Thunder.
Isn’t it funny that this unfounded battle still needs huge financial support?
Or do they really think that their money was blown by the strong wind?
Of course, the original instigator of this condemnation was Huang.
In the past,
Most of the dignitaries and wealthy businessmen who lost everything in the [Battle Arena] came from the Kingdom of Thunder, Kingdom of Frost, and Kingdom of the Sea, which are located near the sea.
As for the rare power ministers and wealthy gentry of the Water Kingdom, it was because Kirigakure Village was still under the control of Uchiha Obito at that time. In the whole cruel and infighting environment, there was not much accumulation of wealth at all. Not to mention leaving the Kingdom of Water to go to such a [rich man’s paradise] for enjoyment and indulgence.
And on that black night, all the powerful businessmen who lost not even a single steel penny were left under his control and control. This is why he has been able to support the entire Uchiha clan and hundreds of people in these years. The most fundamental reason for blood inheritance limiters.
This time, the conditions for Huang to mobilize this hidden thread are:
In the future, the assets they obtained from their operations no longer need to be handed over directly to Oya Shiroyan for distribution, and all the debts they lost in gambling in the past have been written off. Whether or not to cooperate in the future is entirely voluntary.
And the person who made the biggest push and contributed the most to this incident can directly terminate the unilateral death contract concluded and regain true freedom! !
Such conditions are undoubtedly very attractive to those powerful people and wealthy businessmen who are used to being high and now have nothing.
The money is gone, but they can make it again according to their methods and channels.
Their status is gone, but relying on the legacy of their ancestors and the strength of their families and groups, they can still stand above ordinary people.
But once freedom and life are gone, then they are nothing! !
Therefore, after four or five years of living in fear and conscientiousness, they finally waited for such a glimmer of hope.
Originally, according to Huang's wishes, as long as such a war-ending outcome could be achieved, all the freedoms of those powerful merchants would be directly returned.
After all, after the ninjas from Yuyin Village joined the Kingdom of Yu, the [Thunder Light Group] has gradually formed the prototype of a second-line force, and it can also have enough strength and numbers to begin to accept and carry out some tasks to maintain its own existence and operation. .
However, such a proposal was directly rejected by Oya Chengyan.
And his answer was:
[Human nature cannot be controlled at all! 】
[Such a gift is laying greater hidden dangers for yourself and the forces behind you! 】
If all the people who participated in this matter were directly released from the unilateral death contract, then they might not only not be grateful, but more likely to beat them up after they are truly liberated, and plan an even more cruel incident. Revenge!
Because after all, these guys were once a group of superiors, how could they tolerate being dominated by others for so long?
Once those guys get rid of the threat of death, it will be terrifying to go crazy.
Therefore, it is a great gift to cancel their debts and return their assets to themselves.
The unique quota to relieve the death crisis is a gimmick to mobilize the maximum energy and potential of those guys! !
Only the unique ones are the most precious, which is also in line with the psychology of those powerful people and wealthy businessmen.
Huang did not express any objection to this.
He was not good at dealing with those guys, otherwise he would not have handed over hundreds of power dealers to Oya Chengyan to control.
Professional people do professional things.
And such a denunciation has become more and more intense after fermenting for most of the day, and has almost become a confrontation between two camps: on one side is the Cloud Hidden Village headed by the Raikage, and on the other side is the upper class dominated by many powerful businessmen. person.
And the latter is also constantly trying to influence the name of the Kingdom of Thunder, and intends to use it as the 'flag', or spiritual node, to benchmark the Rain Hidden Village Raikage.
In fact, such a camp confrontation has appeared more or less in several other major countries.
The only difference is that the Kingdom of Earth has now been completely reduced to Onoki's one-word palace, the Kingdom of Wind is the lifeline of the Daming Prefecture's economy that has nearly controlled the economy of Sand Hidden Village, and the Kingdom of Water is a country where civil strife has just subsided and everything is in ruins. Waiting for excitement.
Naturally, the Fire Country Daimyofu and Konoha also had such conflicts.
In the past, the twelve guardian ninja warriors of the Land of Fire once fought over whether this country should only be dominated by the daimyo, or whether the daimyo and the hokage should coexist, and they were reduced to the original twelve people with only the last three remaining. The miserable state of man.
In the eyes of both parties,
Most power businessmen only think that ninjas are tools to be hired at will. As long as they have money, what kind of ninja and what kind of power cannot be hired?
On the contrary, most ninjas only regard those powerful people and wealthy businessmen as ordinary employers. To say that they have respect from a class level in their hearts, there is no such thing as respect.
They will only respect their seniors, their own [Shadows], and beings more powerful than themselves.
Such an outbreak was obviously unexpected by the entire Yunyin Village.
Because in my impression, those powerful people and wealthy businessmen never come to trouble, including in the previous few wars of ninja. Only with their support can we be undefeated in such an unprecedented war, and even gain a lot of victory. Profit and prestige.
Moreover, in the previous ninja wars, the warring countries were of equal strength like Konoha and Amegakure, and those guys didn't say much.
However, this time the target is only a new country of Tang, and the two sides are simply two worlds apart!
What happened that caused those helpless guys who had been protected by Yunyin Village in the Kingdom of Thunder to make such a change?
You must know that the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder who previously reigned almost acquiesced. They only cared about the follow-up and whether they could achieve a complete victory.
In the end what happened?
how so!
As the fourth generation Raikage, Ai didn't understand, nor did he want to understand.
"Get out of the way, get out of my way!"
"I'm going to go find those bastards myself and tell them all!!"
"Who is protecting the Kingdom of Thunder these years? Who is maintaining the image of the Kingdom of Thunder as a great country?"
"Now, hundreds of our people have died in a foreign land, and there are no bones left. How can those bastards say these things with peace of mind!!"
I'm really angry,
But this anger is entirely due to the negative decisions made by those powerful people and wealthy businessmen on this crusade, not because of the slander and stigma imposed on themselves by those bastards.
Now, he just wants to go to the Kingdom of Tang immediately to avenge his subordinates who can never return.
However, those Kumogakure ninjas have one more point of anger:
How dare those so-called employers disrespect their own Raikage-sama! !
This is simply a lack of respect and ignorance! !
"Calm down, you must calm down, Raikage-sama!"
"The situation in the Kingdom of Thunder is very chaotic now. If you go out to disrupt the situation yourself, the consequences will become uncontrollable!"
As one of the think tanks of Yunyin Village, Nozomi held Raikage's arm tightly. Even though his body could be described as strong, it was still far behind the former's fleshy appearance.
Especially when blocked, his whole body is like a large pendant hanging on the opponent's arm!
It's just that such a voice didn't seem to be accepted by the Fourth Raikage. The anger in his heart was like an erupting volcano, which was unstoppable and unstoppable!
"I don't care what those guys mean, but the blood of the ninjas of Cloud Hidden Village cannot be shed in vain!"
"Go away, don't force me to do it, Xi!!"
Ai roared angrily, Kong's powerful face filled with clear fury, and his pair of eyes that protruded out of anger were like a pair of huge copper bells, staring at the subordinates beside him.
However, such voices and threats did not make the former let go, because they could clearly predict what kind of irreversible situation would result once the conflict deepened.
Although, from a short-term perspective, the powerful and wealthy businessmen who did not have much force value could not pose any threat to Yunyin Village in a short period of time.
But in the long run, this is a crack that cannot be easily healed, and a deep rupture in the relationship between the two parties! !
To know,
Those power businessmen are not only their sponsors, but also their biggest employers!
Once this incident causes major conflicts and divisions between the two parties, even if they can successfully conquer the Kingdom of Tang this time, how will they get along with each other in the future?
As the complaint notes say,
Before the war, during the war, and after the war, the other party was required to provide huge funds. This was a completely unrewarded investment. What reason did they have to provide unconditional support?
The most important thing is that tracing the whole story of this incident, it is indeed their side that took the lead in launching an unjust invasion of Tang Country.
I just didn't expect that it would hit the iron plate and cause such a big loss.
And in fact, I don't know if someone is deliberately instigating it, or if the ninjas of Kumoyin Village already have the character flaw of being irritable.
[A bunch of trash who need to be protected, how dare they talk about the great Raikage] Such voices have become louder, especially in the towns of the Kingdom of Thunder outside the village.
It's like a pair of black hands, silently promoting the spread of such remarks, exacerbating the conflict between the Ninja Village and the financial groups and political groups.
There have even been violent conflicts in a few areas.
There is no doubt that the party being beaten is the employer and the employer's guard. After all, ordinary people cannot fight against well-trained ninjas.
Although the impulsive Kumogakure ninja was controlled after the incident, he also expressed his confusion about his behavior, as well as his regret and regret, because he was overwhelmed by anger.
But such an incident is really too bad!
Naturally, such bad behavior could not be forgiven, and it even suddenly elevated the opposition between the two camps to a new dimension.
At the same time, the opposite voice to "Walking about the Raikage" soon emerged, that is, "the threat theory of ninjas with absolute force", or more accurately, the threat theory of "Kumogakure ninjas" began to burst out!
At least, Konoha, which belongs to the five great ninja villages, has never encountered such a situation, and there is no precedent of starting a war without any reason!
But in this case, this situation really means nothing in the eyes of the Fourth Raikage.
At this moment, there was only one order in his mind, and that was to avenge the dead Pao Ze!
The rest of the matter and the subsequent results will all wait until he gets his revenge.
"Let go of Raikage-sama, Nozomi."
"Our persuasion is useless."
"Anyway, he can't hear the public opinion outside: Yunyin is the intruder in this incident; he can't see that several major consortiums have cut off our daily funding; he can't see that some powerful people have blocked the supply of supplies to us by arms dealers. ; I can't see that the army of Amegakure Village has completely settled in the country of Yu and entered a state of coordinated defense; I can't see what kind of withdrawal it means that Konoha has sent out the message that "Shimura Danzo" has rebelled against the Ninja Village; see The daimyo of the country of invisible thunder have begun to express their dissatisfaction with our behavior."
"We can't even imagine how many people will perish in this war!"
"All he saw at the moment were the hundreds of companions lying dead in the soil."
"So, let it go!"
"Perhaps, only when Kumogakure is truly surrounded by enemies, only when the Akatsuki organization, Konoha, and the forbearing Yugakure launch a new round of attack on us after the war, will our Raikage-sama be able to Only when you can recognize the current situation clearly can you feel the slightest regret."
The cold voice penetrated the ears of everyone present like the ice of winter.
