I sell sweets in Konoha

what is this?Could it be that someone leaked all the recent events to her?

This is unlikely. The recent surveillance efforts, while modest, are not complete.Please report it to the newspaper. No one paid attention to these two girls, and Indra didn't go out to pry out any information.

So what's going on here?

"Analyze." Junko pointed to her brain and said, "Analyze the current situation through known things, make bold assumptions, and verify carefully. Your current expression is the best answer."

"No one has revealed any information to us, and your current situation can be said to be something that must be faced on the road to development."

Junko spread his hands and said, "Oldmoney and newmoney are born with a pair of contradictions. If you want to deal with this contradiction, you need some means. And you obviously do not have the means, knowledge and ability to deal with this contradiction."

"And let's put it this way, it actually doesn't matter what Indra's attitude is." Junko spread his hands and said, "Your current behavior is basically about to explode."

"It can even be said that the thunder has been stepped on and blown up."

"Of course I have a way to help you get through this difficulty." Junko said with a treacherous smile: "Although I may not be able to help you completely clear the mine, I can at least ensure that you get through the hurdle in front of you and then detonate the mine. The time is pushed back a long way.”

"Of course, I won't give you advice for no reason." Junko said, "You have to pay me."

"You don't need to worry now. I suggest you go back first. You still have room for maneuver after meeting us, but you won't have any room for maneuver after meeting Indra."

Is there no room for maneuver at all?Asura didn't know, he didn't understand yet but he didn't seem to need to say anything more.He didn't have any better ideas of his own, and now it seemed more like he was being led around by others.But should I just go back like this?

"Don't worry." Junko said: "I believe that you two brothers will not fight directly in the Ninja Sect at least for now. There is still a possibility of sitting down and chatting."

"As long as you are willing to go back, now is not the chance for you and your brother to meet, otherwise there will be no room for reconciliation between either of you."

"You must know that your enemy is at Honnoji Temple now."

Asura wanted to ask something more, but he thought about it and held back.

Maybe he really needed to listen to what she said. Asura didn't want to admit it but he had to admit it.

Well, I don’t understand the last sentence, but maybe...

Maybe this sentence may be very appropriate.

but...

"What does it mean that the enemy is at Honnoji Temple?"

Asura still has to ask.

Chapter 123 is gone

Asura didn't get the answer he wanted. Junko just said that he would know what the 'enemy at Honnoji Temple' was after he went back.

After the confused Asura left, Tomoko finally found the opportunity to interject: "By the way, you spoiler..."

Although I have not watched this plot, as a time traveler, don’t time travelers generally know the plot?Even if you don't know the plot, you still know the direction of future history in general terms.

It's just...

"Isn't this a spoiler?" Junko shrugged and said, "I have only read a little bit about this part of the plot, and I really don't know the rest. And what I have read about the memory den after Shippuden is really not considered a spoiler. Too many. Just a rough idea."

"Of course it does not include the history of this period~"

Spoilers and all, her Junko was really wronged!She didn’t give any spoilers!

"Then why do you say so confidently?" Tomoko said, "You can even pretend to be good at it!"

"It's just analysis." Junko explained: "You must have heard of the saying, 'You can't share wealth when you share suffering.' You wouldn't simply attribute this sentence to the word 'human nature', right?"

"Tch~" Tomoko plucked her ears and said, "Sister's small class has started teaching again."

"You guy." Junko was offended by Tomoko's nonchalant look and said, "If you had studied more, you wouldn't have been exiled as a traitorous ninja. You have such a good advantage and you can defeat me all!" "

"Let me tell you the real reason. It's because it's hard to divide the cake." Junko said seriously: "In the early stages of starting a business, there are few people and the network of interests is simple. If everything goes well, it will basically be incremental. Incremental. Many problems can be covered up, but if it develops and you start eating the remaining ones, the cake will be so big. If you take one more bite, others will take one less bite. And generally at this time, even if you want to fulfill your original promise It’s impossible, because your interests are not only your own, but also yours and your faction’s interests.”

"You want to fulfill your promise, but the people behind you don't think so. If you give up some, it will harm the interests of many people in this faction. They can eat you alive and then find a more suitable person from the faction to replace you. you."

"And even if it is an increase, it may not necessarily cover up all the problems." Junko added: "One of the problems is the old money and new money I just mentioned, the contradiction between the old rentier class and the new rentier class. "

"The cake is still only so big. The old rentier class occupies the most and may be the largest, while the new rentier class occupies the least."

"But the old class is becoming more conservative, and the new class is more radical."

"To put it simply, it is the contradiction between the 'young faction' and the 'old school'." Junko explained: "This is one of the contradictions that will inevitably occur when any group develops. For Asura, he The problem faced is that the Ninja Sect has developed to its limit. At the same time, the contradiction between the conservative faction and the young faction has quickly become acute due to the return of Indra. First of all, from the perspective of the Ninja Sect itself, the productivity of the era in which the Ninja Sect is located is not very productive. Underdeveloped, the economic prosperity brought about by trade has basically reached the sky. Without external expansion, the current Ninja Sect has reached its limit and there is no possibility of further expansion."

"On such a town-level one-eight-acre land, it cannot support too many unemployed ninjas without expanding externally."

"But the Ninja Sect itself will continue to develop and grow. The cake is so big that it will soon be impossible to divide it. Secondly, there is another characteristic." Junko paused for a moment and then said: "The class is solidified! Originally, I followed Asura to protect Ninja. The people of the sect have formed a relatively stable but still somewhat relaxed relationship network at this time. After the death of father and son, they will soon follow. The good positions have been occupied by the elders with their merits, connections and abilities. Then there are new ones who will emerge in the future. Those who have the ability but lack the position will definitely not be satisfied.”

"These people are going to hell if they don't cause trouble, and the Ninja Sect must have factions at this time. Before Indra came, there was the great god Asura suppressing him. Each faction still sticks to its own way and is safe. Destiny. But as the saying goes, the cake is so big. If you want to eat one more bite, others will eat less. People will definitely not be happy. But with Asura around, it’s hard to do anything directly. Now Indra’s appearance is tantamount to giving These people make the biggest excuses."

"Defending the Ninja Sect and defeating Indra is the greatest political correctness of the Ninja Sect, because Indra has clear hostility towards the Ninja Sect. It is useless even if Asura wants to stop it!"

"And now Indra has no obvious actions. He alone has no clear intention to destroy the Ninja Sect. So once a fight breaks out at this time, you can wave the flag and shout without making any effort. As long as your faction loses a lot and my faction retains its strength, it will be strong. . And even if the time comes when rewards will be given based on merit, you won’t be able to keep the fruits of your victory if you don’t have enough people.”

"Besides, at this point, Asura may not be able to make any correct distribution, because his naivety makes him not a very good leader."

"So for Asura, he just stepped on a thunder that could blow up the entire ninja sect to pieces at any time."

Is that so?Tomoko was not very good at politics, so naturally she couldn't offer any objections.And after all, she felt that what Junko said was somewhat true, so she said, "Then why didn't you tell Asura?"

"But pretending to be X there?"

"Even if you are talking," Junko explained, "Asura must also be able to understand. Do you think the Six Paths Sage understands this stuff? Has Asura learned this stuff?"

"If Asura had some political wisdom, he wouldn't end up like this, and if the Immortal of Six Paths knew a little bit about this, he wouldn't end up causing fratricide."

Although how to let your favorite heir inherit the throne has been a difficult problem since ancient times, but the reason why it is difficult is that you died when you inherited it. No matter how good the arrangement is, it will be because you died when you died. After that, the authority of the new heir had not reached its peak, and someone else caused trouble and destroyed it.

But when Asura inherited the throne, the Immortal of Six Paths had no intention of dying!As long as he operates better, Hei Jue won't take advantage of the loophole.

This simply means that as long as you have some political wisdom, you will not have no political wisdom at all, and your face is full of naivety.

"Let's pack up." Junko stood up and said, "Get ready to leave. Today is almost the last day we stay here."

"You mean this timeline?" Tomoko asked a little surprised.

"That's not the case." Junko touched her chest and said, "There's still a little time left, but it's not too far away. My energy has almost recovered, and I'll be able to travel through time in a few days. . But I also want to learn something before traveling through time."

"I remember that Indra had a ninjutsu that could throw a lot of balls at once, and I really wanted to learn that."

If she didn't learn anything, she would really feel sorry for traveling through this time.

"Oh~ I can give it a try, too." Tomoko also said cheerfully: "If I don't learn something, I'll always feel sorry for us to come to this timeline."

Junko happily planned with Tomoko what ninjutsu they should learn next.

But when Asura rushed back at full speed, he ran into someone he didn't want to see.

It’s not that I don’t want to meet him, I just feel that it’s not the right time to do so.

Indra.

When I went there, I watched Indra go out. After walking a few steps, I met Indra outside the hotel.

The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet, and it is quite embarrassing for these two brothers to meet!

There are never any surprises here, only inevitability.

Asura knew very well that Indra was waiting for him here, blocking him.

So do you want to fight?

Asura was confused, the blood relationship between him and his brother might have disappeared long ago.Not starting a fight when the two parties meet is already showing that the brother is very restrained. So what should he do?

"Big brother..."

Asura, who had been struggling for a long time, decided to break the deadlock by himself. He tried his best to look like he didn't mind shouting as before.

"Shut up." Indra said coldly: "I am no longer your eldest brother."

"Don't fool me with your false intentions."

"nausea!"

"Hahaha~" I didn't get as enthusiastic an answer as I expected, but it was within my expectations.Asura could only respond with a wry smile and said, "Brother, still can't let go?"

"Humph." Indra snorted coldly and said, "So what if I can let go? So what if I can't let go? There is no room for me in this place. Does it matter whether I can let go or whether I can let go? Aren’t the results still the same?”

"Then what does brother mean by coming here this time?" Asura asked.

"Come and see." Indra said: "You must have met those two girls. They recognize you more than they recognize me, saying that the Ninja Sect I founded is definitely not as good as yours. So I decided to come over and have a look.”

"How have you managed the Ninja Sect?"

"Oh..." Asura said in a polite way after hearing this: "How do you feel about this place, brother?"

how is it?

Indra gritted his teeth and said: "It's okay, but it seems that your business is not that good now. You went to see those two girls, you didn't stay there for so long, and you came out so quickly. That means they must have told you something."

"The enemy is at Honnoji Temple." Asura scratched his head and said, "I don't quite understand what that means."

"They said it's not a good time for us to meet and that I have to go back quickly."

After hearing this, Indra smiled. He had lost, but not so miserably. His brother still looked so stupid.He didn't understand the sentence "The enemy is at Honnoji Temple", but if you look at it in conjunction with the last sentence asking him to go back quickly.

The meaning is very obvious. The enemy is not outside but inside.

"You go." Indra said: "Hurry up, forget about me, there is still hope."

"Well..." Asura said nothing as he passed by Indra and prepared to return.

But after taking two steps, he stopped and stood there. After a short pause, he asked, "Brother, are we enemies forever?"

"Have you ever seen water thrown back into a bucket?" Indra asked.

It's no longer possible, not just that hatred!What's more important is that his own Ninja Sect, although it is still in the early stages of starting a business, has already passed that precarious stage.Watching it gradually grow, it is no longer possible for me to return to the current ninja sect.

There, only there are people truly worth protecting.

Asura left without saying any more words, and Indra returned to the hotel alone.

"Hey~ Have you finally lost all your money this time?" Seeing Indra Junko coming back alone, he joked: "How much did you pawn the car and the pot? Did you get your money back?"

"I can't understand." Indra did not directly answer Junko's words but asked instead: "Why is it like this?"

"Because of profit." Junko replied simply: "As long as the profit is big enough, you can sell the rope that is enough to hang the seller. The market is not big to begin with, and you don't have the means of production. As long as you can Kick them out and they can monopolize the entire market."

"There is nothing more profitable than monopolizing the business."

"Really?" Indra asked calmly: "Is he the same?"

"The starting point is basically the same, but the means and ends are different." Junko explained: "Under the premise that the opponent is about the same size as yourself, there is a high probability that a balance will be pursued. And the person who maintains this balance is the one who stands at the highest level. The one who ordered it.”

"His own methods are not very good, but if he is a maintainer who is strong enough that no one can defeat him, he will use external factors to break the internal balance and achieve redistribution of interests."

"If you don't come here and don't launch an attack here in the future, this balance of interests will remain for a long time until it expands to the point that it can no longer be maintained."

"At that time, we will either break the existing rules and rush out, or we will completely collapse in the stubborn conservatism."

"But~" Junko said again: "If you want to maintain it, you don't have to rush out completely. There is another method that can be used."

"That is to create a common enemy and use this common enemy to deflect conflicts."

So in fact, the future has been determined. Whether it is Indra or Asura, they actually have no better choice.Without wanting to challenge the old rentiers in this world, regard the other party as your enemy.

It is the only way to keep your Ninja sect growing and growing without collapsing on its own.

Chapter 124 This has to be done

What does it mean to be an enemy in Honnoji Temple?

Asura felt it as soon as he returned to his office.

Since Indra came back, his office has become lively. Some people came to ask for a fight, and some came to ask for their attitudes and opinions.It seems that everyone's attitude is different but basically the same. They all believe that Indra must be the enemy of the Ninja Sect.This visit must have bad intentions. The radical ones asked themselves to organize a force attack to drive Indra out of the Ninja Sect again, while the calm ones just reminded themselves to strengthen the investigation to prevent him from jumping over the wall.

These people seemed to be doing the best for the Ninja sect, but Asura found that everything was not as he imagined.

Whether they are radicals or conservatives, they all reveal a sense of cunning.Both sides seemed to have good reasons, and they might even get into a fight if they met in their own offices.

Even if he tried his best to stop it, moved it emotionally, and used reason to stop the quarrel, it could no longer be like in the past when both parties finally sat down to shake hands and make peace, and then exchange views peacefully.

It's obviously all about the same thing and everyone has similar ideas, but why can they keep shouting?

Even if they finally stopped arguing, they didn't just let it go. At most, they just tolerated it a little for the sake of being the leader of the Ninja Sect.

Asura didn't quite understand this. When he went to find the girl, he was persuaded to return to his office.For the first time, he understood what "the enemy is at Honnoji Temple" means.

As soon as he opened the door and entered, he saw a room full of people guarding him.
