Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 379 Status Quo
Makoto’s so-called cleansing plan includes a series of means to control power, which can be roughly divided into several aspects:
One is to use the political show a few days ago to win over and divide the direct lineage forces including the former whirlpool patriarch and the original elders.

Among them, those who are willing to cooperate will be received by Wei Weicheng and prepared to observe for a period of time.

Those who are unwilling to cooperate, even those who question the "truth" he gave, are squeezed out by Wei Weicheng.

This kind of exclusion and suppression is specifically manifested in:

Those with employment agencies were pushed to the end, and those without employment agencies were moved out of their original residences on the grounds that the housing was tight, and they were squeezed together, and they were also prepared to observe for a period of time.

The second is to use the pretext of swirling away from this "traitor" to violently recruit his subordinate forces.

Needless to say, those who are willing to cooperate.

Those who were unwilling to cooperate were decisively executed by Uzumaki in the name of "conspiring with Uzumaki to kill the former patriarch".

The third is to appease and win over the last commander in Uzumaki Village, except Uzumaki Makoto and Uzumaki Koichi, in an attempt to peacefully take power.

At the same time, in the name of the patriarch, he secretly contacted the unstable elements under the command of the commander to find out if there was any black information about his past, which was a two-handed preparation.

The fourth and last aspect is to vigorously recruit some ordinary clansmen without factions, and to expand the power of the direct line as much as possible by opening up the reading authority of some sealing materials.

After such a series of actions, the power under Uzumaki's hands is rapidly growing, and he has more and more majesty of a ruler.

That kind of feeling can be said to be self-defeating without anger.

Even sitting at the wine table now, with a gentle smile on his face, none of the Uzumaki clansmen present dared to underestimate Uzumaki, let alone make an overreach.

Flattery, flattery, admiration, taking the opportunity to show loyalty, all kinds of words are endless.

Whirlpool heard it in his ears, although he had a smile on his face, but there was no wavering in his heart. Instead, he secretly observed these people to see who could be promoted to be his confidants in the future, and who needed to be kicked out as soon as possible.

Putting down the wine glass, Xuan Wucheng smiled and pressed his hand, motioning for everyone to be quiet, and then he said: "Everyone, you are willing to believe in me and follow me, the patriarch, this is my honor for Xuan Wucheng."

"In the days to come, I hope that you will work together to do your best for our Uzumaki clan, so that all the clansmen will become prosperous together, so that Uzumaki Village will truly become an existence that is not inferior to the Five Great Ninja Villages."

"At that time, presumably the rats in Wuyin Village will no longer dare to covet our clan, and there will be no more treacherous villains like Whirlpool Yuan in our clan, who will do desperate things."

The whirlpool spoke truthfully, and everyone echoed in unison:
"The patriarch is right. As long as our clan grows stronger, those scumbags like Wuyin will not dare to underestimate us!"

"That's right! A bastard like Uzumaki, if he hadn't seen our clan falling into a disadvantage in the war with Kirigakure, he probably wouldn't have done such a beastly thing!"

Seeing that these people quickly understood the meaning of his words, Xuan Wocheng didn't say any more, but stretched out his hand to pick up the chopsticks, and after raising the other hand, he quickly swept around, smiling Undiminished:

"Okay, after talking for so long, are you all hungry?"

"Let's start now."

After the words fell, Xuan Wocheng moved his chopsticks first, stuffed a piece of salmon fillet into his mouth, and began to chew slowly.

When other people saw this, they started to move one after another. For a while, the field was full of gobbling sounds, and the atmosphere was very warm between pushing cups and changing cups.

Whirlpool Cheng had a calm expression on his face. Seeing that everyone was eating somewhat rudely, he couldn't help but sighed slightly in his heart:
These people promoted from the bottom, although their abilities are not bad, but they have never seen anything in the world, and their words and deeds do not have the elegant demeanor of the power class.

If they really follow Lei Luo to Konoha in the future, the kind of virtue these people are showing now will inevitably make foreigners laugh at the whirlpool clan.

"Looks like I still need some training..."

The thoughts flashing through his mind made Xuan Wocheng secretly make up his mind that he must persuade Lei Luo well and persuade the other party not to act too hastily.

Lei Luo needs time to develop, and he, Whirlpool, also needs time to develop. The patriarch and elders are dead, and the existing power class is swept away.

Whether it's placing his own people inside the new leadership system, cultivating confidantes, promoting capable tribesmen, implementing the policies he formulated earlier... none of these things can be accomplished overnight.

Konoha must go, but not now.

At this moment, while whirlpool Cheng was slowly tasting the delicacies on the wine table, while silently thinking about the various follow-up development plans of whirlpool village, a deep voice suddenly came from outside the door:

"Whirlpool Cheng, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you."

A trace of surprise flashed across his brows, Xuan Wucheng stopped his hands, and looked towards the door, only to see a black shadow flashing across the curtain on the door.

After thinking about it, Xuan Wocheng turned around, first apologized to the people who were looking at each other, then stood up and walked towards the door.

Opening the shutter door, Whirlpool Cheng saw Lei Luo as no surprise.

After the two exchanged in low voices, Xuan Wucheng immediately suggested: "Your Excellency Lei Luo, why don't we go out and talk?"

Hearing this, Lei Luo couldn't help but glanced around, and saw that the room where Makoto was, there were not only some Uzumaki ninjas waiting not far from the door, but also some waiters walking back and forth, and from time to time, they glanced at him. side.

Thinking that there are so many people here, and the walls have ears, Lei Luo didn't object, and nodded slightly in response.

After all, there are certain things that are better not to be known to too many Uzumaki people.

In the next few minutes, Makoto first went back to the room to give instructions, then changed his shoes, and followed Lei Luo out of the izakaya.

The two walked side by side on the street of Uzumaki Village, gradually heading towards the ruins outside the central area, intending to find a place with someone to discuss some confidential matters.

Wherever they passed along the way, the Uzumaki clansmen on the side of the road greeted Uzumaki and Lei Luo one after another. Uzumaki responded with a smile one by one, while Lei Luo nodded slightly and let it go.

On the surface, the patriarch Wu Wucheng is quite popular, either because his past reputation is at work, or because his political methods have been gradually revealed in the past few days.

In short, after walking this way, Lei Luo found that most of the people of the Vortex tribe had no panic, neither as if they had just experienced a big war, nor did they seem to be affected by the change of the ruler.
