Bai Yun Chapter 35: Resistance
The day after he became the monitor of the Shangnin class, Duanmu went to the second floor of the Hokage Building.
When passing the aisle on the second floor, Nara Shikahisa's brand-new photo was already hanging on the wall, next to his father Nara Shikama.
Oh, it's really fast.
I hope that when Nara Shikamaru grows up, he will not follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, or else the three patriarchs of the family will be hung on the wall, which would be too sad.
The 53rd year of Konoha came in peace.
A lot has happened this year.
For example, the income tax for completing tasks has been raised from 11% to 12%, and most ninjas can only complain a few words and do nothing.
For example, Yunyin Village sent a peace negotiation team headed by Advisor Guy, but because of the harsh conditions, the two villages have not yet reached a final peace agreement.
For example, Konoha's new position as the squad leader of the Ninja class and the Nara clan did not deal with them, and held on to the Nara clan.
For example, consultant Danzo and consultant Koharu made it clear that they supported the Nara family, and every high-level meeting broke up.
However, the events in these villages have nothing to do with Ruo Liang Yi, Ruo Liang is just an ordinary Chunin.
He was injured quite a bit in the Cloud Ninja War that ended last year.
He remembered what the captain said, and he must take good care of the injury, otherwise it will affect the future combat effectiveness.
He also completed a lot of tasks on the battlefield, but I heard that the village's finances were dragged down by the war, and the commissions for the tasks will be paid in three months.
So, he doesn't have much money.
Standing in front of the Mountain Clan's pharmacy, he hesitated.
He suffered a penetrating injury to his stomach. He struggled to eat for half a year. He continued to vomit and vomit acid water, and he would have a fever after a period of time.
Going to Konoha Hospital can only use medical ninjutsu to suppress the injury for a short time. The medical ninja gave him a prescription. He needed medicine to cure his disease, but he had no money to buy medicine.
Without money, he can't cure his disease, and if he can't cure his disease, he can't take the task, and he has no money.
At this time, I came to the pharmacy of the mountain family, just to try my luck.
It is said that Mr. Duanmu, the squad leader of the Shangnin class, asked the three clans of Zhuludie to come up with a solution to the high price of medicine.
Nara Masajo, the elder of the Nara clan, said that their Nara clan sacrificed too many people in the war, and both the clan chiefs sacrificed two, resulting in a serious shortage of manpower.
The production of medicines has been greatly reduced due to the shortage of manpower, so the price has become more and more high.
At the Shangnin class meeting, Lord Duanmu asked them to recruit more cultivators.
Elder Masajo Nara said that he was afraid that the secret skills of the Nara family would be leaked to other Ninja villages. You must know that the highly effective medicinal materials of Konoha Village are also part of Konoha's powerful strength.
Ruo Liangyi wondered if Lord Duanmu's repeated pressure could make the pig, deer and butterfly clan make concessions.
In this age of lack of medicine and medicine, medicines are hard currency.
As soon as Ruo Liang walks into the pharmacy, she finds that things have really turned around!
On a sign in the pharmacy, it was written that the pig, deer and butterfly tribes felt that the price of medicine was too high, and there were too many ninjas who needed medicine after the war, so they came up with a pioneering solution.
Someone came up with the genius idea that medicines can be paid in installments!
Ruo Liangyi looked at the sign carefully. After the drug is instalment, only 30% of the drug price needs to be paid for the first instalment. After that, the pharmacy will pay the rest of the drug monthly.
He did a careful calculation, the monthly interest rate was 5%, the annual interest rate was 60%, and he was required to pay it off in 12 installments within a year.
He touched his thinning cheeks and rubbed his increasingly painful abdomen. Ruo Liang gave it all away and took out all his money to buy medicines that could cure his stomach injury.
He went home beaming, thinking that the stomach injury was cured, and he would do more tasks in the future to pay back the money for the medicine.
The pharmacy keeps the agreement he signed, unless he dies or becomes a traitor, it is absolutely irresistible.
There is no one in Konoha Village who dares to rely on the money for the three tribes of pigs, deer and butterflies.
One month later, two ninjas from the Uchiha clan's security force appeared at the door of the apartment that Wakaraichi rented and knocked on the door.
"Open the door!"
Seeing that no one answered, the two found the landlord, an old man from the Sarutobi clan, who opened the apartment door.
It's not a vicious incident. It's impossible to smash the door. If you smash the door, you will lose money. In Konoha Village, there is no violence.
"The Uchiha Security Force received a report from the Nara clan, you have the right to remain silent, but you have no right to default on the payment of medicines..."
A stench interrupted the Uchiha security guards.
The two shouted a loneliness, there was only a corpse of a Chunin on the bed of the apartment.
The landlord who followed behind gave a low voice.
Two members of the Uchiha clan security force stepped forward to check.
"The gastric perforation caused by sharp instruments was not treated in time, and the condition deteriorated, and the perforation site became infected and purulent."
The two sighed and prepared to dispose of the corpse.
As for the arrears of medicines, it is not up to the two of them. They were unwilling to come to the Nara clan in the first place. Their new ally, the leader of the Nara clan, wrote his disgust for the Nara clan on his face. There is no way, otherwise they wouldn't make this trip.
Originally, it was a kind-hearted drug purchase plan by the three clans of the pig, deer and butterfly, but it encountered more and more default cases.
In the end, when the Yamanaka family sold medicines, they had to increase the interest rate, and the monthly interest rate changed from 6% to 8%.
For a time, the contradiction between medicine and patient not only did not get relieved, but it became even more acute.
In a forest to the northeast outside Konoha Village, Zhishui is discussing something with Duanmu.
Stop Water said:
"Senior Duanmu, your method really works."
"I applied magic to a Nara clan ninja, and he went back and suggested to Nara Masao that he could use the method of selling medicines in installments to gain more profits, and the Nara clan really accepted this opinion."
Duanmu was looking at the forest where the Nara clan planted medicines in the distance. There were people from the Nara clan who were haunting and collecting this year's new medicine.
Duanmu said to Shishui: "Actually, the illusion is just to add a layer of protection. Even if the illusion is not used, the Nara family will not be able to bear it when they hear this method of earning much more than before."
At this time, all the members of the Shangnin Class Office were dispatched, looking for the Nara clan's drug storehouse in the forest, trying to find out what the Nara clan's real stock is now, so that they can take the next step.
Suddenly, Gang Zitie rushed out of the forest behind him and said anxiously, "Master Duanmu, Izumo has been arrested!"
Huh? One of the guard duo who made Payne dare not walk through the front door was caught?
Zhishui asked, "Who can arrest Konoha Chunin around Konoha Village?"
Duanmu sighed and said, "It's either the dark part or the root..."
Sure enough, the three of them rushed to the site of the incident and saw Danzo and the roots of his men.
Danzo actually dispatched himself.
Izumo Kamizuki was held by the roots and could not move. Being easily arrested by the root made him very embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do.
At this time, Danzo's right arm is still the same as before, except that the right eye is wrapped in a bandage.
Danzo said gloomily when he saw the three people who came over:
"The monitor of the Shangnin class, is your hand stretched too long..."
Duanmu said:
"Following the major events in Konoha and making proposals at the Shangnin class meeting are all my duties. How can there be a saying that you have a long hand and a short hand?"
Tanzo said:
"There have been a lot of rumors going against the Nara clan recently in Konoha Village, and I suspect it's all related to your going to the ninja class office."
"Elder Masajo Nara has complained to me, demanding severe punishment for those who spread rumors."
"This sneaky chunin, I'll take it away for inspection first. You better have nothing to do with these rumors."
Gang Zitie and Zhishui were very nervous when they heard that Danzang was going to take them out of the cloud. If they were taken to their roots, they would be convicted of several crimes if they did not commit a crime.
But at this time, Duanmu was thinking about another thing.
Would you like to...
Danzo has not been transplanted into the arm made of the first-generation cells by Orochimaru at this time. Do you want to do it directly here?
Just a little thought, Duanmu's breath is as cold as an abyss.
Zhishui and Gangzitie also noticed the abnormality of the back wood.
Is this coming for real?
The ninja at the root shed a cold sweat unconsciously, and the squad leader of the ninja class on the opposite side is a ninja who is not at a disadvantage in front of the fourth-generation Megumi Raikage and Yatai Tonjuri.
Duanmu said softly:
"Lord Danzo, have you thought about the consequences of arresting me in the Ninja office?"
The temptation to kill Danzo is extremely strong at this moment. Why not kill Danzo before he reaches his full potential?
At this time, in Duanmu's perception, a team of ninjas came from a distance.
From the perspective of formation and skill, it is at least an Anbu of a squadron.
Danzo also knows that the person who arrests the person in the Shangninban office on the bright side will soon be torn apart.
Thinking about it again and again, let alone a life-and-death battle, just simply try his skills, he is not necessarily an opponent of Duanmu Baiyun.
Finally, he waved and released Shenyue Izumo.
Anbu in the distance finally arrived, and it was actually an Anbu squadron led by the Minister of Anbu.
The Minister Anbu saw the scene of the sword being drawn, and sighed that the judgment of the three generations of Hokage was really accurate.
There's a real possibility of a fight here if someone doesn't control the scene.
Duanzang Advisor and Zijin Immortal are both bad tempered.
Secretary Anbu said:
"Lord Duanmu, Lord Sandaimu, please."
Duanmu knew that he was a little aggressive just now, and now is not the time to take action against Danzang.
The Nara clan and Danzo are indeed people who can be solved by force, but what about after the use of force?
Konoha will be thrown into chaos, and Duanmu will have a bad reputation for taking action against his fellow Konoha.
The three generations can't sit still at this time. The three clans of the pigs, deer and butterflies are his most loyal subordinates. When the Nara clan was the weakest, he couldn't help but not show up.
In the Naruto office, the third generation asked:
"Duanmu Baiyun, you have to forgive people and forgive them. I know that the elder of the Nara clan, Masao Nara, once had a grudge against you."
"However, you and your team have no casualties after all. Such a long time has passed. You are already a senior executive of Konoha. How can you be so small?"
"As a senior executive of Konoha, you must have a mind that matches your identity. Otherwise, how will Konoha's future be handed over to you?"
Hand over the future of Konoha to Duanmu? I don't know how true or false this statement is.
Duanmu looked at the third generation and said:
"Sir Sandaime, you underestimate me too much. I have long forgotten the grudge with Masajo Nara."
"The bigger problem now is that the Nara clan controls the seed medicine industry."
"Due to the declining population of the Nara clan, there is a shortage of Konoha's medicines."
"The Nara family neither agrees to purchase from abroad nor to send more foreign personnel."
"The Nara family is the hero of Konoha, and the two chiefs died in the third ninja war. However, the Nara family cannot allow the village to lack doctors and medicines."
Three generations squinted and said:
"Konoha has encountered many difficult times, and we should accompany the Nara family to get out of the predicament. As long as the Nara family is given time, their seed medicine industry will surely recover quickly. Is it necessary to be so aggressive?"
There is more and more vicissitudes and exhaustion on the face of the powerful three generations.
Duanmu said:
"Sandaime-sama, have you read the report I submitted to you? It contains a list of ninjas who have recently died from deteriorating injuries."
"That's one name and one vivid life. A grain of sand of the times, falling on the head of ordinary people, is a mountain that is enough to crush the spine."
"Konoha can wait for the Nara clan to get out of the predicament, but the more than 50 ninjas who died have not waited, and the ninjas who are still suffering from pain can't wait."
"As a matter of fact, Mitsuyime-sama, if you don't agree to the purchase of medicines, then next week, nearly 20 ninjas will die."
"Lord Sandaimu, the Sarutobi family will not be short of doctors and medicines, and the Yuliu family will not be short of doctors and medicines. The people who are suffering now are the civilian ninjas who are not so well-equipped."
"Lord Sandaimu, it's not you who are persuading me to stop, but I am here to persuade you to stop."
Duanmu's uncompromising attitude made Sandaimu find it difficult.
Looking at Duanmu Baiyun's young and determined face, the third generation was a little dazed for a while.
Duanmu Baiyun is not a pure ninja like Hatake Sakumo, he will not be disturbed by rumors.
He is not a ninja like Minato Namikaze who puts the village first. In his heart, the village does not seem to be a whole, and he only speaks for some of them.
He is not a careerist like Orochimaru. After he became the monitor of the Shinobi class, he never got anything for himself.
Until now, he hadn't even asked to see Konoha's most precious book of seals.
He's a strange ninja who seems to have some strange mission that drives his constant action.
In the end, Sandaimu was defeated, Sandaimu said:
"During a special period, it is allowed to purchase medicinal materials from the capital of the land of fire or other places."
"However, the specific procurement matters must be the responsibility of the Nara family."
Duanmu was really puzzled at this time: "Lord Sandaime, why are the Nara clan so hoarding, why don't you ask?"
Sandaimu couldn't answer anything.
First of all, of course, the Nara clan sacrificed too much in the third ninja war. The two chiefs and many clan members died for Konoha.
If the Nara clan is not protected, the Yuroku clan will not be easy to lead.
Secondly, the Nara family invested huge resources in Orochimaru's experiments, and Danzo also explained to him many times that they must increase their support for Orochimaru.
As a result, the Nara clan relied on high-priced medicinal materials to make up for their losses, and the senior officials of Konoha turned a blind eye.
In the end, the third generation said nothing, and Duanmu left the Hokage office in disappointment.
Returning to the Shangnin Class office on the second floor, Duanmu's expression was very unpleasant, and it must be very unpleasant to talk to the third generation.
Similar handed over several documents to Duanmu:
"Tehisa and the others are in trouble in their investigation of the Qiu Dao clan and the Yamanaka clan."
"The roots kept shooting, blocking their actions."
Duanmu sighed:
"The roots are not like Anbu. They only follow the orders of Danzo advisors and have no responsibilities."
"We tried a lot of gentle methods, but they didn't work. The roots became the biggest resistance to all our actions."
"If the roots are not treated, the Nara family will not be able to move."
"The Nara clan does not move, and the Yuliu clan cannot move."
"Wait a little longer, we will have a chance soon. It's really not good, let's do the root first..."
