What Luo Cheng needs to do is to push forward the Wood Release food industry improvement plan before the time comes when they think they are strong enough. Once this plan is pushed forward, his power will enter an endless positive cycle just like in Terra!

By then, I will have the final say on whether the ninja world will be in chaos or not!

Of course, we can't say the same thing to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who still has to keep talking about world peace.

"Okay, I understand your idea. I'll think about it." Although he said he would consider it, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had no intention of acting according to Luo Cheng's plan completely.

First of all, in his eyes, the biggest loophole in Luo Cheng's plan was the crucial step, the grain improvement plan, which no one knew whether it could succeed.

Luo Cheng couldn't tell Sarutobi Hiruzen that he could download data from the source of the other world, so in Sarutobi Hiruzen's view, this was like the country making major changes to its national policy, and the core of the change was that someone said he could achieve controlled nuclear fusion within ten years, but he has no results yet, only an idea that seems to be plausible!

Anyone with a normal mind would not make such a decision!

But what Luo Cheng said was not completely useless. At least he kept in mind the fact that Luo Cheng and Orochimaru had a very powerful move but one with a long pre-swing.

The short break was over, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Luo Cheng left the reception room and returned to the meeting room for the Jonin meeting.

After a period of calm, they were obviously in much better shape and had clearer logic when conceiving strategies. In the following meetings, they put forward many useful strategic ideas.

After the jonin meeting ended, the Hokage did not leave work, but instead convened the staff headed by the head of the Nara family to work overtime overnight.

After the decision to go to war was made, he had to sort out a framework for Konoha's overall strategy and the strategic deployment after the war.

"Are you back? I heard that you had a secret talk with the Third Hokage for a while. How was it? Did you gain anything?" asked Orochimaru who was lying on the hospital bed.

Because he had just undergone brain surgery, it was not very convenient for him to move around, so he did not attend the Jonin meeting this time.

However, Orochimaru had been on the battlefield for many years, and some of the senior ninjas attending the meeting had close relationships with Orochimaru. Before Luo Cheng arrived, the relevant information had already been delivered to him.

Luo Cheng did not react to Orochimaru's "Knowing what's going on in the world without leaving home", but just said: "I didn't gain much. It seems that the Hokage does not approve of my strategy."

As he spoke, Luo Cheng did not feel any frustration. He had long been accustomed to ordinary people being unwilling to accept his plans. It was the same when he was in Terra. When he first started promoting the Holy Healing Potion, he also encountered many obstacles.

The most critical point is interest. Some of Luo Cheng’s plans are good for everyone, but precisely because they are good for everyone, they are opposed by others.

Just like after Luo Cheng increased the survivability of all Terran people, those Terran countries that had always been unkind became unhappy and began to boycott the Holy Healing Potion.

The same principle applies to the ninja world.

Although the Fire Nation is now surrounded by powerful enemies on all sides, the reason why the Fire Nation has become like this is because this country has had a long-term trade surplus, and it is almost draining the blood of the surrounding countries!

People beat you because they can't stand it anymore.

Otherwise, why don’t people go fight the Sand Village who has to eat dirt and drink wind every day?

Although Luo Cheng's strategy will achieve peace, if Luo Cheng's strategy is really successful, the Fire Nation will lose their international trade advantages.

Sacrifice the self to achieve world peace? Stop it!

The merchants of the Fire Country want to make money, the daimyo of the Fire Country want to make money, and the common people of the Fire Country want to make money. How can you, a hidden village, do whatever you want?

Before the Fire Nation falls into a slump in the war, no one in the Fire Nation will agree to do this.

"Luo Cheng, your path is not easy." Orochimaru was not surprised by the result.

He could understand Luo Cheng's technical theories, and he believed that Luo Cheng could really improve grain varieties. However, he felt that this plan was not feasible in the short term, not to mention the Third Hokage who could not understand Luo Cheng's theories and could not even tell whether he could succeed.

The possibility of Sarutobi Hiruzen agreeing was close to zero from the beginning.

"I know, but I always have to give it a try." Luo Cheng said.

When he was in Terra, Luo Cheng was also actively communicating with various countries. Later, he found that verbal communication was not feasible, so Luo Cheng started by giving Casimir a hard time, and then challenged each country one by one until everyone was convinced.

Using courtesy before force is Luocheng’s tradition in doing things.

After trying the text and it didn't make sense, then...

Some things need to be put on the agenda.

"Lord Orochimaru, I wonder if you are interested in doing something big with me?" Luo Cheng asked Orochimaru who was lying on the hospital bed.

"What's the matter?" Orochimaru didn't know what Luo Cheng was thinking.

Luo Cheng pulled out a piece of white paper from the bedside table and drew the outline of a map of the ninja world on it.

The Fire Kingdom is located in the center of the earth, while the Thunder Kingdom is in the northeast corner of the map.

The Fire Nation borders nine countries, large and small, while the Thunder Nation is surrounded by the sea on three sides and only borders one country. Its geographical structure is somewhat similar to the Korean Peninsula in Luo Cheng's previous life in reverse.

There are two small countries between the Fire Kingdom and the Thunder Kingdom as a strategic buffer zone.

Luo Cheng stretched out his finger and drew a thick line on the land border of the Land of Thunder.

"Lord Orochimaru, what do you think would happen if we 'cut' this line?"

"...How do you want to break it?"

"Literally, the land along this line will be destroyed using ninjutsu, making it difficult to pass through, and interrupting the land route between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Fire. The Land of Fire can only go out to the sea in the northwest. If you want to go from the northwest to the Land of Lightning in the northeast, you need to cross half of the ninja world, which is extremely inconvenient."

Orochimaru thought for two seconds and didn't understand what Luo Cheng wanted to do: "No matter how damaged the terrain is, for ninjas, there is always a way to cross it. There is no point in this."

Looking at Orochimaru who was still trapped in the ninja mindset, Luo Cheng shook his head and said, "This is not to stop ninjas, but to stop businessmen."

"merchant?"

Luo Cheng continued, "I want to cut off the commodity trade between the Lightning Nation and the Fire Nation."

"I think that only by creating a trade island in that environment can some of my ideas be implemented."

"Lord Orochimaru is a smart man. He should have realized long ago that the Fire Nation will not agree to my plans, unless Konoha Village ignores everyone's opposition and forcefully implements them politically. Otherwise..." Luo Cheng didn't finish his words. Some things are better understood by everyone and there is no need to say them out loud.

"So, you set your sights on the Land of Lightning?"

"Yes, I plan to use the Land of Thunder as my experimental field to test the feasibility of my plan."

"Lord Orochimaru, you have seen the results of the jounin class's vote just now. The war is expected to officially begin in the near future, and you will probably be sent to the front line as the commander-in-chief."

“It will be convenient to do something then.”

After listening, Orochimaru looked into Luo Cheng's eyes and said, "So what good will this do for me?"

Orochimaru is more concerned about his own life and death, and at most adds Jiraiya, Tsunade and others to the life and death of his bonds.

To be honest, I'm not particularly interested in whether the ninja world is peaceful.

He could cooperate with Luo Cheng to do this, but he had no reason to do so.

Now, Orochimaru is waiting for Luo Cheng to give him a reason.

To this, Luo Cheng’s answer is very simple.

"Lord Orochimaru, are you interested in surpassing the ninja? Don't you want to see the scenery above the sky?"

Luo Cheng didn’t believe that a person who was interested in scientific research would not be interested in the universe!

Finally finished writing, it's too late today_(:з」∠)_

Chapter 19: Do you know the Sage of Six Paths?

"You're impatient."

After hearing the reward offered by Luo Cheng, Orochimaru did not accept it directly, but looked at Luo Cheng and said these few words.

"Luo Cheng, you are a very talented person. I don't like lies. Your talent in scientific research is better than mine."

"Your talent in scientific research is also affecting your practice. I still don't know anyone in the ninja world who can surpass your speed of growth in strength. In less than a year, you have risen from a Genin to an elite Jonin. I'm afraid even the legendary Sho-daime is not so exaggerated."

At this point, Orochimaru paused, and then continued meaningfully: "You are only 10 years old, you have an infinitely bright future. As long as you are willing to endure hardships and humiliate yourself in practice, I think in 10 years at the shortest, or the longest, it won't be too long. By then, you can completely replicate the great achievements that the first generation has accomplished!"

"Even better than what he did!"

"Because you have your inventions and creations that can solve some problems that the first generation of adults cannot solve."

"You, what are you in a hurry for?"

Why, when you are still weak, do things that put yourself in danger?

Orochimaru didn't ask this question, but Luo Cheng understood what he meant.

Although the will of fire of the Third Hokage is to sacrifice the minority to illuminate the majority.

But Luo Cheng represents an infinite future.

Compared with the countless Konoha people in the future, the contemporary Konoha people have become a minority.

Orochimaru believed that as long as Luo Cheng wanted, the Third Generation would most likely not send Luo Cheng to the battlefield.

This is like asking the five-star emperor MacArthur to be a filler baby. In theory, it is possible, but it would be a waste to do so.

The Wood Release Food Transformation Plan is a plan that will benefit the Fire Country at the expense of all living beings in the entire Ninja World.

In Orochimaru's opinion, this plan should not be brought out now. This is one of the reasons why Orochimaru did not tell outsiders after knowing Luo Cheng's plan.

But unexpectedly, Luo Cheng revealed it himself.

Orochimaru felt that with Luo Cheng's intelligence, he must be aware of how many people in Konoha and the Land of Fire would oppose this plan.

Now Luo Cheng has not produced any results and only has an idea.

If he has achieved some initial results, some assassination teams are probably on the way.

And Luo Cheng’s remarks just now also confirmed that he knew how much resistance there would be here, so he planned to use some means to start with the Land of Thunder.

Then the question goes back to the beginning. Since this plan would be more appropriate to be carried out after achieving success and sweeping the ninja world, why did Luo Cheng bring it up at this inopportune time?

Orochimaru thought about it and felt that there was only one answer.

That is, Luo Cheng knows some information that he doesn’t know!

Some very important intelligence that could have a very wide impact!

And this is the question Orochimaru really wants to ask at this moment!

Orochimaru is a smart scientific researcher, not a mercenary businessman.

Rather than Luo Cheng’s so-called compensation, he cared more about why Luo Cheng insisted on doing this.

Looking at Orochimaru's serious eyes, Luo Cheng knew that it would not be easy to get through this level.

Luo Cheng opened his mouth and closed it again.

He wanted to tell a lie.

But the endless cycle of one lie within another, using one lie to cover up another lie, made him feel a little tired.

Forget it.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Cheng decided to say something practical.

"Don't ask me how I know what I'm going to say next. I won't answer you until the time comes." Luo Cheng said a preface.

Then he asked Orochimaru a question.

"What kind of person do you think the Sage of Six Paths is?"

"Huh?" Orochimaru was stunned by Luo Cheng's question.

It's like when two people are discussing world peace and the modern international situation, one of them suddenly says, "What do you think of Huangdi Xuanyuan?"

It's inevitable that it feels a bit off topic.

"The man who founded the Ninja Clan according to legend, the ancestor of all modern ninjas." Orochimaru answered with some uncertainty, using a 'standard answer' that most ninjas knew.

After thinking for a while, Orochimaru added: "Legend has it that the Sage of Six Paths defeated many evil demons and turned the ninja world from chaos to peace."

Orochimaru's ideal is to learn all the ninjutsu in the world, unravel all the truths in the world, and obtain the "truth".

The pursuit of eternal life is simply because fragile human beings cannot realize the ideal of obtaining truth in a short life, so they pursue eternal life.

He wants eternal life for the sake of truth, not pursuing truth for the sake of eternal life!

With such an idea, Orochimaru would naturally be interested in the Six Paths Sage, the founder of this world's ninjutsu, but he did not have much information about the Six Paths Sage.

When he was a teenager, he was overwhelmed by the amount of ninjutsu that Konoha had to learn. When he was in his twenties, he had roughly learned many ninjutsu. When it was time to pursue a higher level, the Rain Country War broke out again. He was stuck in the quagmire of war for four years and had no time to pursue his ideals.

So up to now, his understanding of the Six Paths Sage is still at a relatively superficial stage.

Luo Cheng nodded, and then continued: "The answer is correct, but it is too general."

"The Sage of Six Paths founded the Ninja Clan. So was he the first person to use the power of chakra?"

Without waiting for Orochimaru to answer, Luo Cheng gave the answer.

"No, the Sage of Six Paths is not the first person in the ninja world to use the power of chakra."
