Escape From Konoha

Vol 8 Chapter 137: explore

Country of tea, hotel.

In the room where the heater was placed, Tsunade sneezed without warning.

"Do you have a cold, Tsunade-sama?"

Shizune, who was reading a medical book, heard Tsunade's sneeze, and immediately raised his head to ask.

Next to her, there was a pink piglet sleeping soundly. Its name was Gufu. It was a ninja pig she adopted. It has a very sensitive sense of smell, not weaker than the ninja dog bred by the Inuzuka clan.

"Ah, it's okay, maybe someone misses me too much."

Tsunade rubbed his nose subconsciously, but he didn't feel any discomfort in his nose, so he responded to Shizune.

After that, she once again put her mind on the various books in front of her, which were all the intelligence materials she had collected from many countries in the ninja world over the past few months, and then scanned and analyzed them.

The more he looked at it, the heavier Tsunade's heart became.

"Mute."

After a long time, Tsunade called Mute.

"What's the matter, Tsunade-sama?"

Looking away from the medical book again, Shizune glanced at Tsunade in confusion.

"What kind of person do you think Baishi is?"

Tsunade asked.

"Eh? Why did you mention Senior Brother Shiraishi at this time?"

Mute felt even more confused.

"Isn't it too boring? I just find something to talk about."

Tsunade rearranged the books in front of him and said with a smile.

"Is that so? However, I suddenly asked me what kind of person Senior Brother Baishi is... Well, I always feel a little hard to explain."

If it was Shiraishi in the Konoha period, she would be able to tell why.

At that time, Shiraishi was undoubtedly an excellent medical ninja and an excellent medical ninjutsu assistant teacher. Under Tsunade, he worked hard and was loved by many students. And he was always able to take the trouble to teach the students after class, and he didn't treat the students differently because of their weaker talents, but chose to treat them equally.

Therefore, during Konoha's third ninja world war, countless excellent medical ninjas emerged, resulting in a decrease in the sacrifice rate, and Shiraishi also contributed. Even if the other party later defected to Konoha, this achievement cannot be erased.

The strength of medical ninjas does not lie in strength, but in logistics. Every additional medical ninja saves the village from losing many ninjas. Because of this, today's medical ninjas are not as underappreciated as they were in the past, and their status is increasing year by year. There are also more and more students applying for medical ninja majors in the school.

As for the later Shiraishi, Jing Yin doesn't know how to evaluate it.

In terms of attitude, he is not indifferent to her and Tsunade. Also because of Tsunade's relationship, Jiraiya's life was spared, although there was an intention to make a deal with Konoha.

But after all, they have been divided into two different camps.

As an enemy, it should be a very troublesome existence.

In particular, various medical industries in the land of ghosts have been created. The health of its medical system is not weaker than that of Konoha, and even surpasses Konoha Village in certain aspects, such as medical research. After all, it is not a simple matter to set up branch pharmacies in various countries in the pharmaceutical industry.

At least Konoha can't do that.

As far as medical ninjas are concerned, as an enemy, Shizune also admires Shiraishi very much.

It has achieved the ultimate dream that many medical ninjas want to accomplish.

If Tsunade came up with the original concept of medical reform, then Shiraishi, a disciple of Tsunade, was the one who further improved the system. The medical system of the ghost country not only benefits the people of the country, but also reduces the mortality rate of people from all over the world.

It is precisely because of this that the medical industry in the country of ghosts can open branches in various countries. This is the success brought about by hard power, not all because of opportunism in the third ninja world war.

Tsunade also probably understands Shizune's thoughts. Like Shizune, her perception of Shiraishi also ranges from initial appreciation and trust, to later incomprehension and resentment, and finally to helplessness and complexity.

But unlike Shizune, a pure medical ninja, the scariest thing about Shiraishi is not that he has perfected the medical system of the ghost country.

"The kingdom of ghosts has many things that Konoha and even the kingdom of fire lack. If Konoha and the kingdom of fire do not make changes in the future, then sooner or later they will decline."

Conservatism is not necessarily a bad thing, but complete conservatism is tantamount to giving up hope for the future.

Just like her teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen used to use the balanced hand policy.

Use the power of Hokage to balance the interests of various ninjas, and at the same time promote Danzo and form roots to steal some of the achievements of ninjas and further stabilize the situation within Konoha.

The original intention at the beginning was good, but the problem is that this kind of policy has led to the expansion of the roots, and at the same time created obstacles for new reforms.

Uchiha... Tsunade sighed.

She didn't know what kind of mood Uchiha Itachi had to destroy her family.

It is precisely because of this conservative and unwilling to change the atmosphere, it is also the reason why Konoha Uchiha is going to the end.

If everyone is conservative, then the structure of the ninja world will naturally not change.

The five major countries will always be the five major countries, and they will still exist aloofly.

The point is that the Kingdom of Ghosts has made changes at this moment, and its influence has begun to radiate to neighboring countries.

She doesn't know what the end point of the Ghost Kingdom's final transformation is, but from the current point of view, there is no doubt that the Ghost Kingdom will become stronger.

"Why does Tsunade-sama think so? I think the kingdom of ghosts still has a long way to go to catch up with the kingdom of fire."

Shizune looked at Tsunade in surprise.

The Kingdom of Fire has been in decline recently, but it should not be so easy for the Kingdom of Ghosts to catch up with the Kingdom of Fire.

"Indeed, in terms of background, the Kingdom of Fire is not considered weak. The problem is..."

Tsunade smiled wryly.

The problem is that more than 90% of the wealth in the Kingdom of Fire is concentrated in the hands of daimyo and nobles, hoarding it and don't know what to use it for.

Most of the rest was distributed to Konoha for development funds.

In the end, what is left belongs to the common people.

Wealth cannot be circulated, and the people cannot become rich.

Tsunade, who has been to the country of ghosts, really feels that the transportation in the country of fire is very inconvenient. The planning of the town and the issue of banditry in the country are also careless. At least Konoha can receive many C-level missions to sweep up bandits every year in the country of fire, which is very problematic.

Some of those robbers were people from other countries who fled into the Nation of Fire, and some were desperate people from the Nation of Fire, who could only make a living by robbing.

These days, Tsunade did not choose to continue to study medical ninjutsu. On the one hand, her medical ninjutsu is already at the top level in the ninja world. In a short period of time, it is impossible to make any major breakthroughs. On the other hand, she wants to understand the changes in the kingdom of ghosts through more basic things, and think about the future of the kingdom of fire and Konoha, and how to go about it.

Therefore, all kinds of information she collected are related to the industrial chain, economy, taxation system, agricultural policy, military planning, national defense strength, crackdown on gangster-related industries, scientific research technology and diplomatic aspects of various countries.

Taking these aspects as a breakthrough point, she faintly felt that the country of ghosts is a very scary country.

On the premise of surpassing the big countries in these fields, it is not accidental or good luck that the kingdom of ghosts has become so powerful, but a matter of course.

It is strange that such a country does not become stronger.

It is clear that the country of fire has a larger population, a wider land, and a stronger foundation than the country of ghosts, but all aspects seem to lack stamina in dealing with the country of ghosts, and this is the problem.

Because power cannot be concentrated, whether it is human power, economic power, or military power to ensure national security, they are all in a very serious state of division.

Taking Konoha as an example, Konoha ninjas, who represent the most powerful military force in the Kingdom of Fire, can only screen ninjas in Konoha Village.

But the country of ghosts is different. Every town has established a school to test which ones are good at skills and which ones are suitable for ninjas.

Select talents from all over the country.

In terms of talent reserves, although the Ghost Country is not big, it has fully operated the state machinery. In terms of various talent reserves, it is probably not inferior to the five major countries.

But the problem is that the land and population of the ghost country cannot be compared with the five major countries.

If it is said that the kingdom of ghosts used every ounce of power of the country on the blade without wasting, then the kingdom of fire may only use less than 30% of the power used on the blade.

The rest of the power is concentrated and preserved by the upper level, and is not opened to the middle and lower levels.

The more he thought about it, the more headache Tsunade felt.

In the final analysis, it is the system, the attitude of the upper class towards the middle class and the lower class.

It's just that the structure of the five great powers that has lasted for hundreds of years has not changed. Do those big names and nobles really have the guts to touch that uncertain future interest?

On this question, Tsunade was already scared, and he became suspicious of the answer to this question.

"Jing Yin, go out and get me some dinner and come back, I want to write a letter back to Konoha."

Tsunade said so.

"Okay, Tsunade-sama."

Jing Yin looked at the time, and it was indeed almost time for dinner, so without hesitation, he opened the door and went to the front desk of the hotel to order food.

"In short, let's explain to Sarutobi-sensei the problems that Konoha currently has."

As for how to change, Tsunade couldn't think of a good way.

But there is no shortage of smart people among Konoha, maybe they can come up with a solution to the problem.

After all, she is a medical ninja. She is proficient in these, just because she is a high-ranking member of Konoha, who knows more information and can look at problems from a higher position, not because of her high political consciousness.

If it weren't for the emergence of a weird country like the Oni Nation, Tsunade felt that it would be impossible for him to think about this kind of problem in his life.

She was also a human before considering the career of a ninja.

The prosperity of ninjas is not equal to the prosperity and progress of human beings.

With "people" as the core, let the upper level fully understand the role of taking the lead and promoting the development of the human era...

"It is the narrowest view to simply define this kid as a war-born terrorist."

Tsunade sighed.

She knew that the international public opinion towards Baishi has always been mostly derogatory.

Especially in the land of fire and the land of wind, public opinion is used to render him as a heinous war madman.

This is also the case in Konoha Village.

No matter how much you hate or how hostile you are, if you can't understand the other party's thinking, don't understand the other party's motives for doing these things, then what you see will always be only the surface.

Initiating a war is not the ultimate goal, but just a means that must be sacrificed in order to achieve the goal.

Maybe, this kind of sacrifice is the one with the least price.

Tsunade knows that when the situation in the land of ghosts and the land of fire is so tense, her view of Shiraishi in such a positive way may attract criticism from some people in Konoha Village, and may even be used by Danzo. Attacking her with public opinion is an unfounded charge of colluding with foreign enemies.

For this, Tsunade did not back down.

She was just telling the truth that she had done everything she could do so far, as long as she had a clear conscience.

She believed that as the Hokage of Konoha Village, after her reminder, she must be able to understand.

This anxiety about how to develop Konoha Mirai has always been in the heart of her teacher Sarutobi Hiruzen. Otherwise, you will not always adopt a conservative balance policy to convince yourself of every action.

However, what Konoha needs now is not to be conservative, but to be more open.

Unlike the medical reform she proposed last time, if she wants to change this time, the resistance will be stronger than ever.

In fact, all the nobles in the Kingdom of Fire, including the daimyo who have a good relationship with her, will stand against her and be her enemy.

Just as Tsunade was writing the letter, Shizune also came back from the outside.

Unlike when she went out alone, when she came back, there was someone behind her.

"Master Tsunade, long time no see."

Seeing an unexpected person, Tsunade raised his head with a slightly astonished expression.

Sarutobi Asma.

It was her teacher's second son Asuma Sarutobi who came back with Shizune.

In terms of relationship, the other party can be regarded as her "little brother".

"Asma?"

"it's me."

Asma bowed respectfully, then sat down.

"Speaking of which, I have indeed heard that you and Sarutobi-sensei had a certain disagreement in philosophy, and then left Konoha. I thought you still insisted on going to the Daming Mansion to form a new guardian ninja twelve scholar."

Tsunade said quite unexpectedly when he saw Asma.

"When I was young, I was ignorant, so it was inevitable to act impulsively. However, I don't regret being a daimyo's lackey. Because I have increased my knowledge, I have seen a different world, and I have made many friends."

Asma responded.

"Then you are lost?"

Tsunade laughed jokingly.

"If this is the case, I will not leave Konoha again and go out in the name of tourism."

Asma smiled wryly.

"Then you are..."

"I just happened to pass by and saw Ms. Shizune, so I guessed that Tsunade-sama is here."

Asma explained.

Shizune also nodded, indicating that this is the case.

Tsunade nodded.

Even though it was an accident, I was still very happy to see the young juniors.

"As for the Guardian Ninja Twelve...Because there was a problem before, I may not go to the Daming Mansion again. As for my father, I still don't agree with his various attitudes. Actually, I know, no matter Whether it's you, or Jiraiya-sama, leaving Konoha in the name of traveling and collecting information is actually the result of being disappointed with your father and forced to happen."

Asma said regretfully.

"It seems that the old boy has grown up a bit. There are indeed many differences of opinion between Sarutobi-sensei and I and Jiraiya. No, it is better to say that in terms of dealing with things, Sarutobi-sensei and I, and There are always differences of opinion.”

The teacher Sarutobi Hiruza said that it was okay to say that Jiraai was also because of frustration, and to pursue what he thought was the son of prophecy to save the world.

But regarding Shiraishi, Tsunade knew that Jiraiya had always hoped to make Shiraishi correct, and denied all Shiraishi's actions.

He believes that the existence of Shiraishi will pose a threat to the hidden dangers of peace in the ninja world, and hopes that the other party will stop and stop using force threats.

This is based on the standpoint of Konoha and Fire Nation, and it is understandable.

However, Shiraishi is no longer a Konoha ninja.

Since he is a high-level executive in the country of ghosts, it is a matter of course for him to plan other countries for the benefit of his own country.

Therefore, Tsunade's resentment is the resentment that Shiraishi betrayed her trust, not the resentment that the other party used force to deter other countries.

However, when getting along with Jiraiya, Tsunade did not point out this point, and never mentioned Shiraishi-related matters in front of Jiraiya, but just fooled it with silence.

Otherwise, if the quarrel continues, she and Zilai may not even be friends.

It's like the teacher Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo.

Not only are comrades in arms fighting side by side, but also fearful and hostile to each other, wishing for the opponent's immediate downfall.

"This is the first time I've heard of it. I thought Sannin's relationship has always been very good."

Asma was surprised.

"If the relationship can really be maintained, I also hope, but the defection of Orochimaru, doesn't it just mean that Sannin may also have different ideas in terms of philosophy? Most of the time, people are individual creatures after all, and only consider their own. Benefits. I am not surprised that Orochimaru studied forbidden techniques for longevity. This is an obsession he has had since he was a child, and he respects life."

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru would use the civilians and ninjas in his own village to study, thus becoming a traitor.

This is what Tsunade couldn't understand.

Perhaps it was to completely cut off everything with Konoha, so this extreme method was used.

Asma thought about it, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you to come out and finally relax. Do you have any insights?"

Tsunade asked with interest.

She has always had expectations for the young people in the village.

For example, a brain school like Shikahisa Nara.

When Minato came to power, the opponent was the most active young man who wanted to make a difference.

However, after Minato's sacrifice, he fell silent, and his personality became offline and lazy. Recently, there seems to be rumors that he was reactivated by Konoha's high-level officials.

An excellent young ninja like Asma has always been valued by Tsunade.

After all, the future of Konoha depends on the people of Asma's generation.

"In terms of comprehension, only when I was in the kingdom of ghosts at the beginning, the senses are different. In other countries, there seems to be no difference."

Asma thought for a moment and answered in the affirmative.

Of course, the difference here is not the so-called humanities, or the difference in seasonal scenery, but the difference in the level of national consciousness, as well as the improvement system for the grassroots, which is also very different.

It caused Asma to think a lot.

"Really? Indeed, people with rebellious thinking like you are more likely to notice this."

Tsunade was not surprised.

Tsunade was not surprised that Asma had such an idea.

As the inheritor of the will of fire, questioning the legitimacy of Hokage's existence is originally a deviant idea.

It is also because of this kind of thinking that Asma had a disagreement with his father Hirizan, which led to Asma's rebellious behavior in his youth.

"Why, Tsunade-sama, do you also feel the difference in that country?"

Asma asked.

"The first time I went there was about seven or eight years ago. At that time, I just thought that the reform of the ghost country was a bit interesting, and there were a lot of things to learn from. I went there again, and it was a few months ago, and more changes came from there. , so I did some research."

Tsunade has nothing to hide, and has a showdown with Asma.

Asma nodded. A few months ago, during the war between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Wind, Konoha’s elite team was also severely damaged, and Sannin Jiraiya was also arrested. At that time, Tsunade must have entered the Kingdom of Demons It's been a round.

Seeing Asma thinking about the problem, Tsunade smiled and said, "I'll give you these things for reference."

"?"

Asma looked at the intelligence documents Tsunade pushed over and sorted them into a pile.

"This is?"

"This is some information I have collected from traveling around the world recently. There are some from the ghost country and other countries. It can be regarded as my personal opinion. I also plan to briefly write down these things and give them to Sarutobi-sensei disposal."

Tsunade smiled.

"Although I don't know what Tsunade-sama is thinking, but I think my father...may not easily admit it."

Knowing a father is like a son, Asma is very aware of her father's stubbornness in certain aspects, as well as his firm stand against the will of fire.

In Asma's view, that is completely old-fashioned thinking, which does not know how to adapt and adapt to the times.

Except for the medical reform proposed by Tsunade during the Second Ninja World War, Konoha’s internal policy has not improved at all, and it follows the one created by the Second Hokage.

Whether it is good or bad, there is no one left to execute.

As a result, the functions of some departments have become bloated and inconvenient.

For example, the functions of the Uchiha Guard and Anbu have overlapped in the past twenty or thirty years, and the roots have grown under the protection of Anbu, which has threatened Anbu's authority as a result.

Asma, who was born in the Hokage family, learned many things.

Moreover, he believes that the one-country-one-village system originally had serious division problems in terms of leadership.

The rivalry between daimyo and hokage power.

Compared with the daimyo who ruled the entire Fire Kingdom, the part ruled by Hokage is only the tip of the iceberg of the Fire Kingdom.

This made Asma question the status of Hokage, and only by maintaining the supreme ruling power of the daimyo can the Kingdom of Fire truly become stronger.

It's a pity that his deviant ideas are not supported in Muye Village. Instead, because of his identity as the son of Hokage, he is often viewed with distasteful eyes, and he quarreled with his father for this.

"Do your best to obey the destiny."

Tsunade seemed to have some concerns, and finally said this sentence.

"Thank you very much. The last time I left the ghost country in a hurry, I haven't had time to realize too much. I will treat Master Tsunade's opinion well."

Asma answered solemnly.

"It doesn't need to be so formal, it would be nice if it can help you."

Tsunade also has his own compassion.

If you can pull Asma, the son of Hokage, into your camp, maybe you can plan something in the future.

Asma's identity destined him to have unusual influence in the village of Konoha.

Her teacher Sarutobi Hiruzen is old after all. If Konoha needs to change in the future, then a young man like Asma is an absolute new force.

After chatting for a while, Asma got up and said goodbye.

"I always feel that sitting on the position of Hokage will be very hard."

Jing Yin looked at the back of Asma leaving, and suddenly said with emotion.

"Why do you say that?"

Tsunade asked strangely.

"Because both business and family affairs need to be perfect, in order to better lead the village and become a benchmark. It's just that if there is a disagreement with the family on ideas, Master Hokage will definitely have a headache."

Mute said.

"That's true, but we can only learn from the experience of our predecessors, and we can't completely copy the methods of our predecessors. In this regard, the country of fire and Konoha have already begun to lag behind, but we don't know what is happening inside Konoha. How many people can see that."

Tsunade had a worried face.

Even if they see this point, how many people are willing to change, and whether the upper level is willing to let go of their own interests and transfer to the middle level and grassroots level is still unknown.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents.

"Master Tsunade, are we going back to Konoha this time for the New Year?"

Shizune looked at Tsunade expectantly.

Tsunade glanced at Shizune and asked, "How much money do we have?"

"It's all been spent, and I still owe a lot of debt."

Silence said helplessly.

Although that Raikage-sama has borne most of it~www.readwn.com~, Tsunade's gambling skills are really 'appalling', and they are still in debt.

"Looks like it's all over."

Tsunade shook his head.

"Yes."

Mute nodded affirmatively.

"Then this year's Chinese New Year, let's go to the wet bone forest for a while to eat. It just so happens that I have something about medical ninjutsu and I want to ask the live slug."

"Is it a living slug?"

Jing Yin nodded, although it was a pity that she couldn't go back to Konoha to celebrate the New Year, but going to Shishilin to celebrate the New Year didn't seem like a bad thing.

Huolu's attainments in medical ninjutsu have benefited her a lot every time. As a medical ninja, there is nothing happier than this.
