Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 381 Goal
"As for Sarutobi Hiruzen...Although he doesn't seem to belong to any ninja faction, since he can sit in that seat, it shows that he is essentially the spokesperson for the interests of the ninja."

"Using Sarutobi Hiruzen is equivalent to making enemies with all the ninjas of Konoha at the same time. This is not a problem that can be solved with just a few words."

"Even though you, Lord Lei Luo, are invincible and kill Hokage silently like you killed Mizukage, you are not a member of the ninja clan, and you have not established the slightest relationship with Sarutobi Hiruzen."

"In this case, Konoha's ninja will not trust you, and will not rest assured to hand over power to you. In other words, what you lack is an orthodox position."

"If you act rashly, the best possibility is to let others pick the peaches, and the worst possibility is to force yourself into a traitor."

As he said that, Whirlpool Cheng let out a long breath slowly. Seeing that Lei Luo was listening intently, he considered his words for a while, pointed to his chest, and continued:

"But I'm different. I'm originally a member of the Uzumaki clan. I have a group of direct lineage forces to support me, and I have an ally like Uzumaki Koichi outside, and my reputation in the village is not low."

"The most important thing is that I have a very close relationship with the previous patriarch. Many people in the clan know this."

"So, let me be the next patriarch, the clansmen don't reject it in their hearts, otherwise..."

Having said that, Whirlpool Cheng unconsciously showed a smile that was not a smile. He looked at Lei Luo, who was concentrating, and slowly said:

"How can I let the whirlpool turn away from relatives and build up my own prestige just by relying on words that confuse black and white?"

At the end of the sentence, seeing that Lei Luo didn't mean to speak, Xuan Wocheng shrugged his shoulders first, and then stretched his neck to relieve a little bit—the physical fatigue after talking so much.

After a while, Whirlpool seemed to have rested, and immediately continued:
"There were actually quite a few loopholes in what I said at the time, and there must be loopholes upon further investigation, but the clansmen selectively ignored them."

"This is not only because of the cooperation of the whirlpool Haoyi and others, but also because the patriarch is dead, and the clansmen urgently need someone to vent their anger on."

"That's why, with the corpse of Kaguya Skeleton, and under the circumstances that I would not fail no matter what, I made the best use of the situation to direct the fire to Uzumaki Yuan."

"In the end, with the help of Whirlpool Yuan's death, I won."

"If any one of these is missing, I may still be able to successfully become the patriarch, but it will definitely not be as fast as it is now."

Having said that, Makoto paused for a while, as if waiting for Lei Luo to understand the meaning of his words.

And Lei Luo is indeed rapidly absorbing the issue of ninja forces that Makoto Uzumaki said at the beginning, as well as the various political wisdom displayed by the other party in this incident.

After a few minutes, Lei Luo raised his lowered head again, staring intently at the whirlpool, his eyes flickering slightly.

Whirlpool Cheng spent a long time clarifying the difference between himself and Lei Luo, and also explained clearly why Lei Luo could not directly seize power with arms like him.

There are three main reasons:
One, the ninja issue cannot be ignored.

Second, the difference in trust derived from orthodox status.

Three, lack of prestige.

Perhaps...a fourth item is to be added, which is what Lei Luo plans to do when he returns this trip:

Control the ninja army, form allies, make up for the shortcomings of his direct lineage, and reach the level of being as responsive as Uzumaki Makoto.

It is Lei Luo's goal to become Hokage and control Konoha.

But... If the goal is just a goal and does not rise to the operational level, Lei Luo may spend a lot of time and even take a lot of detours if he wants to achieve it.

But now, with the help of Makoto's wisdom, Lei Luo has gradually transformed his goal into a plan in a real sense, a practical plan that is no longer like a castle in the air.

But...Looking at Xuan Wucheng, seeing that the other party was just watching him, Lei Luo pondered for a moment, then straightened his face.

He lowered his head slightly, and with a cautious attitude, said the words that implied asking for advice:

"Whirlpool, I admire your wisdom."

"I don't know, can you give me some pointers?"

At this moment, Lei Luo rarely lowered his stance, because Makoto Makoto's performance was enough to make him respect him, even though the other party was a complete conspirator, he was quite afraid of him.

But it is undeniable that Wu Wucheng is stronger than him in terms of political struggle, conspiracy and calculation, and power struggle, and he is much stronger.

Therefore, Lei Luo doesn't mind learning from Makoto, nor does he mind asking him for advice.

Whirlpool really felt the attitude Lei Luo showed.

So, he thought about it, and then said in a solemn voice:

"Your Excellency Lei Luo, if you want to drive Hiruzaru Sarutobi and others from the stage like me, and let yourself firmly sit in the position of Hokage, then I advise you to give up as soon as possible——Thinking of using violent means in everything style."

"Violence can only make people fearful, but it can't make people submit, let alone make everyone worship you from their hearts and obey all your orders willingly."

"By simply relying on violence, even if you gain power by virtue of your invincible strength, there is no doubt that there are extremely serious hidden dangers hidden."

"As long as it is a hidden danger, it may explode at any time."

"Even if you kill batch after batch of opponents, it will only take you further and further away from your goal."

Makoto's words seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, as if he had seen through the essence of Lei Luo, and this also made Lei Luo fall into deep thought:
Thinking about him, Lei Luo, from the beginning of time travel to the present, on the way of continuous progress, the first solution he thinks of when he encounters a problem seems to always be killing, killing, or using force to make others submit.

If the transaction fails, it will be robbed, and whoever is disobedient will do it.

This is not only determined by his personality, but is it not because of his own extremely strong strength that he can act so recklessly?Anyway, no one can control him?
But going on like this, can he really achieve his goal?
Lei Luo knew in his heart that his goal was to set foot on a higher realm and master the power beyond the ordinary, which can also be called the ultimate power.

In this process, ninjutsu, secret technique, sealing technique...blood, ability, chakra...all belong to his looting target, and belong to the strategic resources in his eyes.

But will he be able to achieve his goal if he continues to plunder blindly?
Relying on the scientific concepts of his previous life and the power of time, he may be able to go fast in a short time by constantly absorbing the knowledge of his predecessors, but what about after all the resources are in his hands?
At that time, what will he rely on to improve himself?
