Chapter 39 Ninjas and Commoners

After Uchiha Tokumitsu withdrew from the border of the Land of Land and returned to the camp, he put aside his general affairs and sought a quiet practice, and the Hokage envoy who returned with him also obtained the return document signed by Uchiha Tokumitsu , he sent the file back to Konoha through the psychic beast, but he was not in a hurry to leave, but stayed in the camp of the Northwest Frontier Defense Force.

As one of the three apprentices of Hokage, Jiraiya came here as a special envoy of Hokage, and he is very powerful. It is said that he has also received the inheritance of Mt. Miaogi, one of the legendary three sacred places of psychic beasts. , on the contrary, his status as a jonin is not very prominent. If he wanted to stay in the camp, whether it was Uchiha Homon, Uchiha Tokumitsu, or staff officer Nara Kohei, they all had to pinch their noses and ask someone to find him a place to live, and let him run around.

Uchiha Tokumitsu doesn't have any dislike towards Jiraiya. After all, no matter whether he is known in the previous life or has been in contact with him in this life, he doesn't have much dislike for this person. He has a heroic spirit. Although Jiraiya came here as a special envoy to deliver the withdrawal order, people have a lot of opinions on him, but he can't help but Ziraiya has also wandered around the camp for a few days, and the ninjas in the camp. They all communicated, but it also dispelled many people's dissatisfaction with the Hokage edict.

After Uchiha Tokumitsu built a car behind closed doors in the mountains for a few days, he felt that the "Super Uchiha Fire Chakra Mode" he had been thinking about had reached a bottleneck period, and all kinds of practice materials he carried were also showing off for several days due to excessive chakra consumption. Exhausted, especially the body also felt exhausted, so he came to an end with the practice and returned to the camp with everyone in the security squad.

In various places inside and outside the camp, the patrol teams of bright and dark sentries are in order, and the ninja doctor and ninja craftsman security team perform their duties. Tokumitsu Uchiha is quite satisfied with this.

Regardless of his previous life or present life, this was his first time leading an army. Being able to hold an army of extraordinary people in his hands and make them obey orders gave him a sense of accomplishment.

When Uchiha Tokumitsu walked to the middle of the camp, he suddenly heard a commotion on one side, so he walked over curiously to see the commotion, which made him turn black all of a sudden.

It turned out that Jiraiya and a group of civilian ninjas were arguing endlessly with the security detachment's resident and the Uchiha people in charge of financial and material management. From the few voices that came over, it seemed to be because of the issue of bounty distribution. Conflict.

How can this be endured?

Uchiha Tokumitsu's anger suddenly came up.

He couldn't stand whether the clansman deducted the bounty of the commoner ninja or the commoner ninja gathered a crowd to make trouble. And the sudden bad mood also made the chakra around him unstable, and a cold and murderous aura also permeated.

"Master Deguang..."

"Director Deguang..."

A group of ninjas noticed Uchiha Tokumitsu's cold temperament, and they all bowed and saluted.

"What's the noise?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu asked coldly.

"Boy Deguang! Your people have acted unfairly, you must educate him well!" Zilai Ye yelled.

Uchiha Tokumitsu became even more angry. He was still young in this life, and what he hated the most was that others underestimated him because of this.

"Let me ask you, what's the noise?" Uchiha Tokumitsu tried hard to control his anger-ridden pupil power, his voice was extremely dark, "Doesn't my camp norm exist?"

"Jiraiya Jonin said that our military rewards were unfairly distributed, so he led the crowd to make trouble." The Uchiha tribe in charge of finances quickly replied.

"What's the injustice? Is your military rewards deducted or your pensions lost?" Uchiha Tokumitsu turned his attention to the group of civilian ninjas gathered behind Jiraiya.

'Twelve people. '

Uchiha Tokumitsu counted the heads silently, and sentenced them to death first.

"The Uchiha Ninja's bounty for battle is twice that of others, it's not fair!" Jiraiya said stiffly with his head held high.

When Uchiha Tokumitsu heard this, he became even more angry, and Sharingan could not help but light up.

"Just because of this?"

"Exactly! As the commander of a ninja army, you must be fair in rewards and punishments in order to convince the public! The post of ninja commander is not a plaything for the ninja clan to exercise power!"

"Hmph!" Uchiha Deguang was itching his teeth angrily, "Here is the commander of the Fire Gate!"

"Master Huomen was invited by the Daimyo of the Country of Grass yesterday, and led the family detachment to go out." Uchiha Ninja responded quickly.

"What about Xinping! Tell him to come here!"

"Yes!" A Uchiha ninja hurriedly saluted, and immediately went to find the staff.

"Jiraiya Jonin, are you here to disturb our army's morale?" Uchiha Tokumitsu said with a stern face, "Don't you know that the double bounty of Uchiha ninjas is due to the additional expenses of our clan?" Was it rewarded?"

"Boy Deguang! The village has its own system of rewards and punishments. How can it be changed arbitrarily? Can family ninjas be special!" Jiraiya still yelled in an unrelenting manner.

"Go talk to the old thief Sarutobi!" Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't bother to deal with the goods, and directly ordered, "Take them down! If you dare to resist, kill them on the spot!"

"yes!"

The Uchiha ninjas were already suffocating, and they all stepped forward when they heard the words. They formed a team of two, one with a sword on guard, and the other pulled out a chakra restraining rope to bind and arrest people.

Seeing this, a group of civilian ninjas who followed Jiraiya to make trouble didn't dare to move, so they turned their attention to Jiraiya for help.

"How dare you!" Jiraiya blushed with anger, pointed at Uchiha Tokumitsu and cursed, "Are you going to kill your fellow villagers!"

The Uchiha ninja ignored him, but tied up and arrested all the ninjas who made trouble.

"Joraiya Jonin, please be careful with your words." Nara Shinpei who hurried over heard Jiraiya's words, was frightened out of his wits, and hurriedly shouted.

"Tokumitsu-sama, please forgive me for being late." Nara Shinpei, who was sweating profusely, bowed his head to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"Counselor Xin Ping, in normal times, have I withheld the bounties and supplies from the headquarters' ninja army?" Uchiha Tokumitsu aimed at Nara Xin Ping with a cold Sharingan.

"Never." Nara Xinping wiped his cold sweat, "Master Tokumitsu has always rewarded and punished fairly, and never withheld..."

"Then why the Uchiha ninja's bounty can be doubled!" Jiraiya jumped out again and shouted.

"This..." Nara Xinping was already yelling in his heart, "Master Jiraiya, the Uchiha ninja's bounty is an additional war allowance given by the Uchiha clan, not the funds of the village. It's a custom for ninjas to fight."

"Then why is Uchiha's family allowance issued by the Finance Department? And other ninjas don't have it?"

"Each ninja clan has its own leader responsible for the distribution, and the camp or village does not interfere in this matter... The Uchiha clan has a large number of battles, and the financial director of the camp is the Uchiha ninja, so..."

"Like this?" Jiraiya felt a little surprised this time, looked around, and found that the other ninjas who heard the news were all watching with cold eyes and folded hands.

"Hey! Kid from the Hyuga family!" Jiraiya asked Seiji Hyuga, the ninja of the Hyuga clan, who was on the side.

Hyuga Seiji rolled his eyes at him and ignored him.

"Take them down and imprison them!" Uchiha Tokumitsu ordered everyone to take away the troublesome ninja, looked straight at Jiraiya and said, "Juraiya Jonin, I will let you go for being rude today, but please Pay attention to your words and demeanor, if there is any more indiscriminate behavior that disrupts the morale of the army and causes trouble for no reason, I will definitely kill you! Also, please leave the headquarters tomorrow!"

After finishing speaking, he led the crowd to leave with a cold face, leaving Zilaiye with an embarrassing expression behind.

After returning to the sleeping tent, Zilai also came to the door, and relentlessly argued with the Uchiha guards to go inside to find Uchiha Tokumitsu.

Uchiha Tokumitsu had no choice but to let Jiraiya enter.

"Joraiya Jonin, what's the matter with you?" Uchiha Tokumitsu still had a cold face.

"Today's incident was my fault. I didn't understand clearly and made a fuss." As soon as he entered the door, Zilai also bowed his body and apologized. "This matter is indeed my fault. I hope Deguang will punish him."

"You are not my subordinate, and it is not my turn to punish you." Uchiha Tokumitsu still had no good face, "But I will report your reckless behavior back to the village and ask your teacher for an explanation."

"What about... the imprisoned ninjas? Can you forgive them?"

"They will be incorporated into the commando team. If they don't die in the next three battles, this matter will be exposed." Uchiha Tokumitsu said indifferently, "Of course, if the village has an order to take them away, that's another matter. There is absolutely no possibility of additional immunity for my subordinates."

Zilai also sighed slightly.

This time he also figured it out, it was obvious that someone deliberately encouraged him to come out and cause trouble.

"Then... Commander Deguang, what do you think of the village?"

"A village is a village, what's there to see?" This kind of fake big question made Tokumitsu Uchiha even more impatient.

"Commander Deguang, are you dissatisfied with Hokage-sama?" Jiraiya's eyes sparkled, "Can you tell me why?"

"All the ninjas whose interests have been damaged are dissatisfied, not just me." Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned, disregarding Zirai, who is also the apprentice of the Third Hokage, "The reason why the ninjas choose Konoha is because Konoha The interests of the ninja are guaranteed, and the ninja can pay appropriately for the village, but there must be a corresponding return."

"But the civilian ninjas in the village have also made a lot of contributions to the village. Why didn't the ninja's extra allowance benefit them?"

"Send the ninja's money to the civilian ninja?" Uchiha Deguang smiled, "Then Sarutobi thinks that the ninja's money is too much to spend or is buying people's hearts? Besides, it is not my clan, and I What are you doing!"

Zilai also hesitated to speak.

"Ninja ninjas are not part of the village's ninja system. It is to defend the village that they accept the family's conscript and fight for the village. In this case, the ninja set up their own war allowances to take care of their children. What has the village to do with it!"

"But...it's not fair..."

"Is it fair to distribute the ninja's money to other people?" Uchiha Tokumitsu said unceremoniously, "Jiraiya Jonin, if you feel that the reward for combat achievements is low, you can go and give advice to Hokage, but Ninja Clan affairs, let alone you, even Hokage, don’t even think about interfering!”

"Isn't Hokage-sama the supreme leader of the village!"

"Hokage is only a representative of the interests of the village, but not a representative of the ninja. Please understand this." Uchiha Tokumitsu stared at Jiraiya, and said word by word, "I wait for the ninja to pass on for thousands of years, and I have my own rules. , any action is beyond the interference of outsiders!"

"Is this how the relationship between Uchiha and the village is so fraught..." Jiraiya had a complicated expression on his face.

"Joraiya Jonin, you are too naive." Uchiha Tokumitsu criticized mercilessly, "If you are really capable, go and let the Hyuga clan abandon the caged bird, otherwise don't come and talk to me!"

"Hey..." Jiraiya sighed, "What about the ninja ninja and the civilian ninja? Commander Tokumitsu, in your eyes, what do they represent?"

"Whether you are a ninja or a commoner, a ninja is a ninja, and strength is everything." Uchiha Tokumitsu looked at the dejected Jiraiya coldly, "Strength is the basis of dialogue and the root of equality. I think Jiraiya Shinobu, you shouldn't understand this truth."

"But...can't you understand your fellow villagers a little bit more?"

"Understand? What kind of understanding? Do we need to let the ninjas spend all their money or destroy the ninjas and divide up the family property ninjutsu?"

"Tokumitsu Jonin, you are too aggressive..."

"It's not extreme! As I said, the ninja has its own position! It's not the fat sheep of the village! You don't need to teach the ninja how to do things!"

"But as the giants of the ninja world, the Uchiha clan can't take more responsibility?"

"Responsibility is matched with rights. I think what our family has done has far exceeded the rights we enjoy."

"Commander Deguang, you are still too narrow... The Thousand Hands are also ninjas..."

"So Senju is now on the verge of extinction." Uchiha Deguang remained expressionless.

The expression on Jiraiya's face was very strange, he opened his mouth, wanted to say something but didn't know where to start, he seemed hesitant to speak but stopped.

There was a moment of silence in the tent, and Tokumitsu Uchiha repeatedly served tea to signal to see off the guests, but Jiraiya just stood there in a daze and ignored them.

Just when Uchiha Tokumitsu was still pondering whether Zilai didn't understand the etiquette of serving tea to see off guests, and was about to let him go, Jilai also straightened his face and continued to ask: "Commander Tokumitsu, if the interests of the ninja Does it conflict with the interests of the village? How should we choose?"

"You can ask your teacher about this, he is also the patriarch of the ninja clan." Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't want to answer directly.

"I want to hear your opinion." Jiraiya still refused to let go.

After entangled for a while, Uchiha Tokumitsu became more and more impatient.

"Jiraiya Jonin, do you understand what a ninja is?"

Jilai also nodded, hesitated for a while and then shook his head.

"The ninja is the sanctuary of the ninja, the carrier of the blood of the ninja, and it is the ninja that cultivates the children of the ninja. Don't you find it ridiculous to ask me this question?"

"What about the village?"

"Jiraiya Jōnin, let me just say it straight, when the interests of the ninja clan and the interests of the village conflict, the two weigh the lesser, do you understand?"

Zilai was also speechless.

After some conversation, they broke up unhappy.
