Chapter 205 The Black Hand Behind the Scenes

Two days later, Kakashi led several teams back to Conan and reported his investigation results.

Flipping through the documents in his hand, Conan's expression suddenly changed.

"These bastards!"

Originally, Conan thought that this incident might be due to the hostile forces of other Konohas, such as Yannin Wunin and even some opponents of Sandin, who were discrediting Konoha, and wanted to use this to destroy Konoha's plan to discredit Konoha reputation.

It's just that what Conan never expected was that the black hands behind these things were just some ordinary people, and their purpose of doing so had nothing to do with Konoha.

"According to our investigation, all these things are actually a joint plan of River Country, which is composed of some nobles and officials headed by Jingyu, and a big businessman named Hakata and other ordinary people."

"Hakata?" Jiraiya seemed to remember something.

"This name seems familiar. I remember that Konoha seems to have had a lot of transactions with him."

"Well." Kakashi nodded. This businessman is indeed very famous. He travels between countries and claims that there is no industry he does not do. From weapons to food to daily necessities, these are his trading scope, and his influence is very large. , and the relationship with other countries is also very good. This time, he actually planned it behind the scenes.

"It has already been implemented when Konoha and Sharen were fighting. They first used the power of local officials to collect heavy taxes, plunder the wealth of civilians, and then spread rumors to encourage people to leave their hometowns. Even a large number of people who were not in the war zone were also arrested They agitate, and then they take the opportunity to buy people's houses and properties at a low price."

"It's really inhumane!" Conan couldn't help sighing.

Kakashi continued: "This is actually not over yet. They will force these villagers to sign a contract of sale when they are desperate and on the verge of starving to death, turning them into their own slaves, completely squeezing out their final value, even Some people will appreciate them for that.”

Naruto next to Conan shouted angrily when he heard this.

"There is still such a bad guy. Compared with the Kaduo we met before, this guy is even more hateful. If I see him, I must kill him."

Hearing this, Conan suddenly thought of something. In fact, this kind of thing happened in the history of the previous life is actually not uncommon. Whenever there is famine or war, it is naturally the end of the world for ordinary people, but for those who have mastered wealth It can be said to be a feast for people with power, and they can easily get wealth and land slaves with only a little food.

"So they spread the rumor that Konoha will start another war this time?" Conan asked.

Kakashi nodded and said: "Well, they also spread the rumors this time. The purpose should be the same as before. I hope to get more land and slaves."

"This is too black-hearted!" Naruto shouted angrily: "Boss, let's go find them, such a guy must kill him, just like the guy named Kado last time."

Conan didn't agree immediately when he heard Naruto's words, but silently flipped through the information.

What happened this time is completely different from what happened last time. Compared with Kaduo, who recklessly tried to control the country as a businessman and provoke public anger, this guy in front of him obviously hides deeper and knows how to behave. .

According to intelligence, this guy not only has good relations with various countries, but even the major ninja villages in Konoha also have long-term employment relationships. The industry is also employing various Ninja villages for a long time, and Kado, the guy who has made money and is even reluctant to hire bodyguards, this man named Bodo is truly a top businessman.

Although all the things he did can be said to be very cruel, he did not break the law. You can say that he is despicable and shameless for making war money, but you cannot say that he is wrong. After all, not everyone is a philanthropist. As for their exaggerated facts and spreading rumors, it is not enough to be evidence at all, so it is impossible for him to find an excuse to deal with him.

So I can only choose to assassinate, but the defense around him is not very weak. Once the scandal of Konoha attacking his employer is accidentally exposed, it will be really fun.

Moreover, he is not the only person to face in this matter, but a large number of local forces in the country of rivers.

Even if I really solved him quietly, the lives of these civilians will not change in the slightest. Others will take his place and continue to do the same thing. The people are still living in dire straits, and the two escapes have already Drain their savings, and it won't be long before most of the common people in this country are bankrupt.

But once he really wants to do something, there are definitely not a few people who need to face it, and he might kill the country of the river with blood rolling.

Besides, this has already involved the internal affairs of other countries. Although the country of the river lives like a grandson between the two big countries, it still has its own sovereignty after all. Even if it wants to execute them, it has no right to do so.

Privately massacre the nobles of other countries?Then do you want your own reputation, and Konoha's reputation, and maybe if you are not careful, you will completely oppose the daimyo in advance, causing all kinds of unnecessary troubles.

"It's really troublesome." Conan couldn't help but sighed helplessly.

The legion moved on, and along the way Conan was thinking about how he should deal with this matter.

Things are indeed not as simple as I thought, just like the City of Commerce before, no matter how perfect the plan is, there will always be various small problems, and even the obstacles encountered are not the various powerful enemies I imagined , but from ordinary people who I have never imagined.

From an objective point of view, there is no need for Conan to take care of this matter. After all, the main purpose of Conan's trip is to achieve reconciliation in the country of the wind, and then slowly plot the country of the wind. The hearts of the people of the country of the river are simply It won't be of much use, not to mention that the people here may not think of you well.

It's just that Conan thought of the empty villages he encountered along the way, as well as the grief and fear in the eyes of those people. Conan couldn't persuade himself to sit idly by anyway.

Recalling the despair in the eyes of the boy he met back then, Conan faintly made up his mind.
