Chapter 834 A rope tree that exposes its nature?
In the spiritual network, after listening to the reason for Yoshiki's narration, Konoha's senior management rationally admitted that his analysis was very correct, but he was completely unbearable in terms of emotions!
Because the rope tree has always been a perfect and bright image in the eyes of everyone. However, the argument he just said was completely based on the perspective of interests. The civilians of various countries were measured on the scale like bargaining chips. It was so rational that it was scary and completely subverted everyone's reflection of him.
A strong chill rose in the hearts of all the Konoha high-level officials, as if they fell into an ice cave, because they suddenly found that they could not see the rope tree clearly. Which one is the real person, the light of the past or the ruthlessness of the coldness just now? You must know that the rope tree will soon become a Hokage. If everything before was a disguise, it would be terrible!
Most people silently thought about their own thoughts and dared not express them at all. At this time, Tsunade, who was the eldest sister, spoke up and scolded: "Rose Tree! How could your thoughts become dangerous! Was it affected by that guy Orochimaru? Those civilians are flesh and blood lives, how can you treat them as bargaining chips for war? Are you worthy of the title of Skywalker like this?"
"Roshiki-kun!" Kushina said in a worried tone: "Those who were definitely not your true thoughts just now, right? I know that Roshiki-kun's personality is as warm as the sun, and she will never have such ruthless thoughts!"
Roseki has long understood the emotions of everyone in the spiritual network through the secret technique of perception. In this direct connection, his perception is more acute and even able to capture the other party's deep thinking. He only knows that because his past disguise was too perfect, the remarks just now had a great impact on Konoha's top leaders.
He believed that even if his nature was exposed, he would not betrayal to his relatives. Tsunade, Kushina's three-girl Orochimaru and even Shirata would not betray him. However, Jiraiya, Kato, and Hatsuki Mizuno and those who are not bound by their own ties and who are morally obsessed with cleanliness are likely to stand opposite him. Now he must say something to cover up the problem, otherwise the establishment of the person he runs will immediately collapse and even cause a significant blow to the political faction he has established.
Rope Tree does not change its tone, it will be regarded as a sign of guilt and will be more suspicious. He said firmly: "No! I am not influenced by anyone! What I just said is what I have always thought!"
The senior executives present heard Rose Tree's determination, and their whole heart sank down, as if they were falling into the abyss. They felt that the final judgment was coming.
Yoshiki ignored everyone's reaction and continued: "I have already expressed my position a long time ago about my nature and attitude towards others!
I remember when I led a team to conduct a bandit suppression mission for the first time, I used the ten tortures of the Ancient Ministry to force confession. Someone asked me if this was too cruel, and I answered him in one sentence! Some of you were there at that time. I wonder if you still remember it?"
"I was there at that time! The impression was very profound." Jiraiya said thoughtfully: "I remember what you said: we should treat our companions as warm as spring, and we should treat our enemies as cruel as winter!"
"It's totally correct! I didn't expect Jiraiya to have such a good memory. It's almost twenty years passed, and I still remember it so clearly!" Shengshu teased in a gentle tone: "So this sentence is my attitude and position towards people and things! It was like that more than ten years ago, and it's still the same now! It has never changed!
Protect the civilians in other countries because they will become their own people, so I will naturally be as warm as spring.
But for the civilians of the Water Kingdom that cannot be conquered, we must be as cruel as the severe winter!"
The Konoha senior management present vaguely understood the meaning of Rose Tree, but some people still think it is wrong, such as Fengbo Minato, who has not spoken, instinctively refuted: "But..."
"But those civilians are not our enemies? Is this what you are going to say right? Master Nephew of Mizuno?" Shengshu interrupted the other party with a serious tone: "No! On the contrary! Under the premise of being unable to conquer, the civilians of the Water Country are our biggest enemies! They will support Mizuno to carry out guerrilla tactics, provide them with a steady stream of resources and reserve forces, and drag our main force firmly to the land of the Water Country!
And the ninja army of Mizuki will rage unscrupulously on our territory, massacre our people and burn all my city, without any mercy! Because they have done the above things countless times in the Kingdom of Wind!
In this kind of life-and-death situation, should we choose to protect the civilians of the Land of Water or the people of our own country?”
All the Konoha senior executives present were speechless, and the answer was already obvious.
"But we must continue to attack the Land of Water. We can withdraw our country, defend against the land of the Land of Fire, and even wipe out the Ninja Army of Mizuki!" Kato, who was thoughtful, said calmly, thinking that Rope Tree was changing its concept.
"What then?" Shengshu asked in a cold tone: "War is going to kill people! We cannot lose without losses in the face of the 180,000 Wu Ninja attack! What will Sai Yin, Iron Yin and even Yun Yin react? Will they watch us swallow all the fruits of victory, or take the opportunity to counterattack?
Even if we wipe out the main force of the Fog Ninja, what should we do later? Should we exchange prisoners for a bargaining chip that will allow them to continue to attack our southern coast in the future, or to attack the land of the Water Kingdom again?
In this way, how much casualties and expenses will Konoha have to pay to completely end the war?
On the contrary, if I directly attack the center of the Water Country according to my plan, not to mention the comprehensive occupation of the Water Country, at least I can destroy the order here, at least I can make them never threaten Konoha. After the fall of the land, the morale of the lonely Mizuno will definitely be greatly reduced and the combat power will be greatly reduced, and we can easily solve them!
Since you can win at the lowest cost, why sacrifice your country's ninjas for the civilians of your enemy?"
This time, Kato Duo was completely speechless. Roseki plotted everything clearly. This plan was indeed in the interests of Konoha. As a senior executive, he could not sacrifice Konoha's ninja to take care of the civilians of the enemy country.
