Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 300
"Is it fair?"

The words he heard in his ears were quite beyond Lei Luo's expectations. He looked at the flushed face of Vortex, and noticed that the other party's eyes were extremely serious. Presumably, this request should come from the other party's sincerity.

After a little thought, Lei Luo roughly understood what Makoto's motivation was:
Judging from the other party's previous complaints about the elders of the Uzumaki clan, Uzumaki, this ninja group that monopolizes a country with a family as a unit, the internal class solidification may be far more serious than he imagined.

Seniority, seniority, age... No matter which power organization you are in, these important factors that determine whether you will be promoted or not still exist. This world is no different from his previous life. This difference is not only reflected in the ability of ninjas to escape. superior.

More importantly, the difference between thought and culture.

A capable ninja may be able to gain a certain status, but if there is no background, blood, and similar political resources to support, then there will still be no bright future in the Ninja Village system, and it will always be just a part-time job.

Konoha may do better than other ninja villages in this regard, but in fact the goodness is very limited. It can be seen from the long-term occupation of the top level of power by Hiruzaru Sarutobi and others until the beginning of the plot of later generations. .

Even if there is an example of Minato, let’s not talk about whether Hiruzaru Sarutobi supported the shallow ninja in the upper position of Minato, and continued to control the overall situation behind the scenes. Let’s talk about the period after Minato’s death...

In this process, did Konoha really have no ninjas who could bear the name of Hokage?

You know, Tsunade is still alive all the time, why didn't Sarutobi Hiruzen consider calling Tsunade back to the village to succeed Hokage, instead he stood up again to play the remaining heat, and regained the power of Konoha for so many years?

In Lei Luo's view, what is for the village and what is for peace and stability are nothing more than excuses at best. In the end, Hiruza Sarutobi couldn't let go of his desire for power.

If Konoha is like this, let alone the country of Uzumaki, Uzushio Village.

Lei Luo has always been unafraid to speculate on others with the greatest malice. In his eyes, the form of existence of the Ninja Clan and the right to speak within the clan are basically controlled by the patriarch, elders and other people. They are unwilling and impossible will let go.

As for the patriarchs and elders, unless you are a ninja in your own faction, even if you are capable, you want to be in power and really hold power?
Dream it.

After pondering for a long time, Lei Luo just opened his eyes again. He glanced at Whirlpool Cheng lightly, and saw that the other party was still staring at him intently, as if he was waiting for his answer.

So Lei Luo said without hesitation:
"Fairness is relative. I can't say that everyone is treated equally, but at least, for my confidantes and those who take the initiative to come over - capable subordinates, I will not be stingy in giving them a promotion channel."

"On this point, even if the Whirlpool Clan is disbanded in the future, as long as all the Whirlpool Clan are obedient and obedient, it will still not change."

"Makoto Makoto, this is my promise to you."

As Lei Luo's last words fell, Whirlpool Cheng breathed a sigh of relief as if his whole body was exhausted.

For Makoto, although the interests of the ethnic group are not as good as his own, since he was born as a member of the Uzumaki clan, it is reasonable to put conditions on Lei Luo for the future development of the Uzumaki clan.

As for whether disbanding the vortex family will have some adverse effects on him?Makoto is not worried at all:

Probably because Lei Luo is going to implement that set of policies, in the final analysis, it is just to prevent the whirlpool family from gathering together, so as to prevent what may happen-the pattern of a country within a country.

It's not that the other party wants to eradicate their whirlpool clan, nor does it mean that they are not allowed to communicate with each other, but they don't live together, and they want to intermarry with foreign races, which is not unacceptable to whirlpool.

Anyway, as long as he succeeds in usurping the throne this time and has served as the head of the Whirlpool Clan for a while, then no matter where the Whirlpool Clan people are in the future, or whether they still act in the name of "clan", as long as they still exist...

Then, his power in the whirlpool will not be affected in the slightest.

After all, since the superior can become the political resource of the subordinate.

Then the subordinates, even the former subordinates, can also become the political resources of the superior. As long as he is capable, it is not difficult for many Uzumaki people to remember him as the "former" patriarch.

With the current number of Uzumaki people, after joining Konoha, even if he directly integrates into the village like Senshou back then, his influence will not dissipate without a few generations down.

Of course, there is also a prerequisite for this, that is, Lei Luo will not suppress these scattered vortex tribes, and deliberately target them, so as to reduce the voice that the huge vortex tribe can bring to occupy a place in the village.

Therefore, whether it is high-sounding or for the sake of its own interests, Makoto must ensure the minimum "fairness".

As for whether Lei Luo will go back on his word, it depends on his follow-up methods.

"That's enough." Responding to Lei Luo's promise very clearly, Uzumaki no longer hesitated, and decisively began to state his plan:

"Including the current whirlpool patriarch, there are a total of thirteen elders. These power classes are the ones I plan to eradicate."

"My idea is to use this war between our clan and Kirigakure to find a way to make these old guys disappear, and then push the blame to the Kirigakures."

"At that time, Your Excellency Lei Luo, you just need to stand up in time and declare that you support me as the whirlpool patriarch."

"I believe that with your reputation in my clan at this time, my chances of success will be greatly increased."

Wei Weicheng talked eloquently, and when he talked about excitement, his eyebrows were a little beaming, obviously he had been thinking about it for a long time.

Lei Luo listened silently to the other party's plan, and seeing that whirlpool had finished speaking for the time being, he asked a question: "How much power do you have in your current lineage?"

Hearing this, Makoto replied without hesitation: "There are about 300 people, and I can command them right now."

"As long as the elders die, they will definitely become my confidantes and only obey my orders."

"More than 300 people? It's enough to maintain order afterwards..." After pondering for a moment, Lei Luo asked the next question:
"Besides the elders, don't you have any other competitors?"

Makoto thought for a while, but this time his answer was a little less certain:

"I am the commander-in-chief of the Western Wall. Besides me, there are three candidates who are qualified to compete for the patriarch."

Hearing this, Lei Luo asked curiously: "Are you planning to make these people disappear?"

"Then it shouldn't be..." Wei Wucheng smiled slightly: "After all, they have a good relationship with me, and I will have a good talk with them beforehand."

"Of course..." Noticed that Lei Luo's expression was a little noncommittal, Whirlpool paused for a moment, and said in a tone that I understand: "I will neither reveal your future plans, nor do I do anything benevolent. "

"I am the only one who can become the patriarch of the whirlpool, and I am the only one who can cooperate with you and help you achieve your goals in the future."

"Only about this point, I will not back down."

Speaking of this, Xuan Wocheng's tone was extremely serious, and there was a slight hint of ferocity in his expression:
"I'll kill whoever gets in my way."
