Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 337

Lei Luo did not lie about this matter, but he slightly distorted the nature of the banquet held by the vortex patriarch in an attempt to increase the persuasiveness of his words.

Whirlpool Zhishu didn't know the way to do this, but he looked calm when he saw Lei Luo's statement. Besides, just ask any Whirlpool clansman to find out about this kind of thing, and lying is meaningless.

Therefore, his heart couldn't help but fell into a tangle for a while, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Seeing that Uzumaki Zhishu stopped talking, Lei Luo withdrew his gaze from the other party, turned his head to look at the others, and said casually:
"Uzushio Village is our Konoha's ally after all. Since there is a situation in their village, then I think we Konoha have the responsibility and the obligation to help them solve the problem."

"In this matter, I tend to support my friend and help him obtain the position of the patriarch of the Whirlpool Clan—for a better tomorrow of the Whirlpool Clan."

"And you..." Slowly scanning the faces around him, Lei Luo raised his hand slightly, pointed his palm straight ahead, and made a "follow me" gesture in the direction of everyone, and slowly spit out the last words. In a word:

"Would you like to support my friend and participate in this just action like me?"

The reason why he used euphemistic words to prepare so much before is because Lei Luo wanted to create a feeling of "we are justice" for his teammates, and we are saving countless vortex people, "beautifying" the process of usurping the throne , or even "legalization".

That being said, it seems meaningless to do so, after all, none of the people present is an idiot, but there is still a difference between "taught by a well-known teacher" and "by an unknown teacher".

After all, human beings are such hypocritical creatures, no matter how barbaric and cruel the things they do, they still like to put a layer of beautiful clothes on them to cover up all the evils in them.

In this regard, whether it is Lei Luo, Yume Shiguro, Hyuga Tamaki, or Namikaze Minato, it is the same, and this guy Orochimaru pursues the truth in everything, and disdains to engage in these twists and turns.

Therefore, Orochimaru is more like a beast in the eyes of others, more like a cold-blooded snake, which seems a bit ironic.

Although Lei Luo is no different from Orochimaru in essence, he has always been good at disguising, and he has never resorted to unscrupulous means to achieve his goals.

For Lei Luo, these teammates in front of him are precious combat power. In order to let them support him, Lei Luo doesn't mind putting on a little bit, so that he looks good and everyone can get along.

Otherwise, if Lei Luo directly said nakedly: "I just want to kill the whirlpool patriarch, I want to get all the sealing data of the whirlpool clan, and even want to manipulate this clan to fight for myself."

So……

Among the people present, it is very likely that some people will not buy it—for example, Uzumaki Tomoki, who is originally from the Uzumaki clan, or Namikaze Minato, who still has a sense of justice in his heart.

With the first one and the second one taking the lead, the resistance of other people will also increase, which eventually leads to the result that no one wants to do it with him.

Oh... Orochimaru may not care, but Lei Luo's focus is not limited to Orochimaru, what he values ​​more is the attitude of Yume Shiguro and Hinata Ring.

That's why I have to say so much, let's do a test.

And the result of this trial will also determine what kind of attitude Lei Luo will have towards the two of them in the future.

Is it cited as a confidant, or...

"I support." Without any hesitation, the first one to raise his hand was Hinata Ring, his expression remained unchanged, as if what he was about to do was just an ordinary D-level mission.

After saying these three short words, he immediately shut his mouth, apparently not having the slightest interest in explaining—the reason for his support.

Orochimaru was the second to express his opinion, still without hesitation, and still without any nonsense, after uttering the three words "I support" briefly, he also closed his mouth.

After Hinata Ring and Orochimaru expressed their opinions one after another, no one continued to speak for a while, and the atmosphere was quite cold.

Namikaze Minato looked back and forth at the faces of his companions, but found nothing, so he thought for a while, then turned his eyes to Lei Luo, and smiled somewhat reluctantly: "That... I also support it."

Lei Luo nodded, indicating that he felt the emotion conveyed in Namikaze Minato's eyes, and expressed with his eyes that he understood the meaning.

Now, the number of supporters is three, and the other three have not expressed their views.

Younv Zhihei pondered for a while, and didn't express his support or disapproval for a moment. It was not until a few minutes later that he looked at Lei Luo and asked:
"What's the name of your friend?"

Hearing this, Lei Luo was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect Younv Zhihei to ask such a question, but there was nothing to hide, so he simply replied:
"His name is Makoto."

"Whirlpool Cheng? This name..." Laughing, Younv Zhihei paused for a moment, and then said to himself: "I don't know if this name is a true portrayal of him."

Based on Lei Luo's one-sided remarks, Younv Zhihei can't judge how the whirlpool clan is doing now, and whether the whirlpool clan leader and the elders are as miserable as Lei Luo described.

For Yume Shiguro, this matter is complicated and complicated, and simple and simple, it is nothing more than a matter of position.

Choosing to support Makoto is choosing to support Lei Luo, which he quickly understood.

So, should he choose to support Lei Luo?
Uzushio Village is an ally of Konoha, wantonly interfering in the internal affairs of the ally country, this kind of thing is definitely not a trivial matter if you think about it casually.

They did such a thing here privately, what would the high-level Konoha think?Will he just treat them coldly, or even... directly kill their gang of rebellious officials and thieves who conspired to usurp the throne?

As soon as Lei Luo stated his purpose, Younv Zhiguo had anticipated this possibility, and he also believed that it was impossible for Lei Luo not to consider this point.

In other words, if you don't want to take a little risk to complete this matter without being known by Konoha's senior management, then all the insiders—all the insiders who don't cooperate with Lei Luo, I'm afraid the end will not be very good.

If it is said that the assassination of Mizukage was to support the allies, it is still excusable. Danzo's power and Uzumaki Mito's reputation can suppress this matter.

Then, arbitrarily manipulating the internal affairs of Uzumaki Village, and even... using force against the current Uzumaki patriarch and elders, this is not something Danzo and Uzumaki Mito can suppress.

What's more, will Danzo and Uzumaki Mito allow them to do this?

Obviously not possible.

In Younv Zhiguo's view, although the matter of the whirlpool clan is the main contradiction at present, he has faintly seen the deeper things behind it:

Lei Luo, seems to be forcing them to stand in line...

If you choose to support Lei Luo, if you take this step, you may not be able to turn back...

"Lei Luo, I want to ask you a question."

Seeing Younv Zhihei's serious expression, Lei Luo also straightened his face:
"go ahead."

"Is your goal to become Hokage?"
