Shimura Danzo is actually a good guy

Chapter 334 City Lord (Part [-])
Is there a shortage of talents in Danzang now?

Of course, he needs talents to help him manage this chaotic ninja world.

But is he in a hurry?

Not in a hurry.

"Although there may be a shortage of personnel in the short term, new and capable people will appear soon." Danzo explained with a chuckle, "Do you know how many schools there are in the country so far? "

Terumi Mei shook her head, although she knew that Orochimaru had already stated the approximate number, but there was no complete statistics.

"There are a total of 91 ninja schools. No, you can't use the word ninja to limit schools, just call them schools." Danzo replied, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong.

Because the current school not only teaches ninja issues, but also has responsible personnel to guide all aspects of politics and business, but most of the time it can only teach basic things like the previous schools.

On a deeper level, unless the students ask for advice on their own, the teachers in the school will have reservations.

The basics are compulsory education, but the deeper things are not completely free.

Each school has specific rules for the teaching of deeper knowledge. For example, the occult families such as Zhuludie will conduct very formal apprenticeship ceremonies, or recruit excellent students through methods such as marriage.

And some blood successor families maintain their recruitment purely through the relationship of apprenticeship.

Danzo did not stop their behavior. Although he could completely keep those families from hiding their personal interests, no one would be willing to selflessly dedicate the things they have passed down for many years.

He also knows very well that the struggle between people cannot disappear, and as long as the human race exists, the struggle cannot stop.

Blocking is not as good as sparse. On the original basis, he corrected it with a tough attitude, and reduced large-scale war incidents of bloodshed and death through competition.

"91 schools have been built, and 59 schools are expected to have yet to be built, including the current Water City area and the Earth City area."

"And among them, the total number of new students enrolled in most of the well-established schools has reached [-], and some schools have just started and completed and have not yet been counted. This is the time of last year."

"The normal school graduation system is a six-year system, but we don't force students to complete six years of study. In the case of outstanding talents, they can apply for an examination in advance to graduate."

"That is to say, judging from the normal time plan, there will be about 9 ninjas participating in the work five years later, and among them, whether they are engaged in business, agriculture, industry, or official work Yes, they're going to be a huge force."

"This force will continue to increase, so when the rules and systems are established in the whole country, there will be no shortage of people who can manage it."

As Danzo explained, he dipped his fingers in tea and drew pictures on the table, so that Terumi Mei could clarify his thoughts, "However, this whole set of rules may still be flawed, so I will call the original countries to discuss the situation. Let’s discuss together at the top.”

Terumi Mei was stunned, listening to Danzo's words with his ears, and staring at the simple picture on the desktop with his eyes. After a long time, he praised: "It's amazing."

The system of rules is completely displayed in front of her, very perfect, she can be sure that these things are things that neither she, Yuanshi, nor Mizukage of past dynasties have thought about.

No ninja would put the management system first. They have always paid more attention to the strength and balance of the village.

"correct."

Having finished lunch, Danzo, who was resting in his seat, suddenly thought of something, looked at Terumi Mei and asked, "Do you know why the deployment with other countries changed in the strategic plan for the country of water? "

He refers to going to the country of water alone to negotiate, instead of mobilizing the ninja army to directly launch a war like other countries.

"His Highness Tokugawa once said that you think he is a good monarch who loves the people like a son, so he is willing to come to the country of water for negotiations instead of directly mobilizing troops." Terumi Mei replied.

This is also the reason why Tokugawa Momomo continued to intervene in this war, and she and Yuanshi did not reject it, because they both believed that this opportunity was brought by Tokugawa Momomo.

Danzo shook his head and said with a smile: "No, I actually chose to have a peaceful settlement with the country of water because of you. It was just an accident that I met Tokugawa. He was not in the original plan."

"because I?"

Stretching out a finger and pointing at herself, Terumi Mei was a little puzzled.

"Compared to the shadows from other countries, I think you will be relatively gentle in character, especially when you sacrifice your life for your own people, you will be much more humane than other shadows." Danzo replied.

And hearing his unabashed praise, Terumi Mei blushed a little. It was the first time that the word gentle was mentioned so bluntly by a member of the opposite sex.

"A peaceful era, an era without too much blood, is not only what I yearn for, but also many people in the entire ninja world yearn for it. Among them, I think you, who just took the position of Mizukage, will be the most suitable for me. ally."

"However, because of the old guy Yuanshi, I didn't come to visit immediately. Instead, I observed the country of water for a period of time, and then I met Tokugawa Momo."

"Later I found out that he is very suitable as an entry point. I feel that many of his ideas are similar to yours."

Danzo slowly introduces the conversation that seems to be chatting in a suitable direction.

"At the beginning, I also felt that many of his ideas coincided with mine. At that time, I thought that if Tokugawa Shigeru could become a daimyo earlier, maybe our country of water would not be in the current situation."

Terumi Mei nodded, she also agreed with Danzo's evaluation, but because of Danzo's words, she had a different idea in her heart, "Does Danzo-sama want him to be the next City Lord of Water City? "

There was already a doubt in her heart, but now that Danzo took the initiative to say this, she took advantage of her current status as an apprentice and asked without hesitation.

"Have the idea."

Danzo tapped his finger on the table, "I've already said that you were my favorite target at the beginning, and I came to the country of water to negotiate because your personality is more suitable for my next arrangement."

"But now that you have worshiped me as your teacher, and you are willing to study by my side, then I can only settle for the next best thing and focus on Tokugawa. After all, that old guy Yuanshi is definitely not suitable. Yes, you really don't have any good candidates here."

Following Danzo's words, Terumi Mei fell into silence.

If it was before, she would of course agree with Danzo's decision, but it is different now.

Ever since Tokugawa urged herself and others to launch an attack on the Land of Fire, she felt that that guy was a cunning fox, and she couldn't see the other party's true thoughts clearly.
