Qing Shui motioned for the next Root member to come forward: "Yan Zhong Feng? What a good name..."
Just like that, one by one, Qingshui removed the curse on all the root members.
"As a greeting gift, I can fulfill one wish of each of you that is not excessive."
Qing Shui raised a finger and whispered, "Does anyone want to be the first to speak?"
Yakushi Nono looked at Qingshui nervously. The orphanage that she supported independently had always been extremely short of funds, and Shimura Danzo had been using this as a threat to control her.
This Konoha may be the best intelligence ninja, Yakushi Nono, who tried hard to analyze Qingshui's personality.
Are they setting a trap for them?
Or do you really want to change the roots...
Pharmacist Nono looked at Qing Shui's gentle smile, felt the relief of having no curse seal on his body, and pursed his lips:
"Lord Qingshui, I would like to request a sum of money to aid the orphanage in Konoha. I am the director there."
All the members of the original root were silent. This stupid woman, did she really mention it?
"Reasonable. Approved."
Qingshui waved his hand: "This is something that has the will of fire, and it is just right for the members of the root to do it..."
Qingshui took out his wallet and threw it at her casually.
Under Qingshui's encouraging gaze, Pharmacist Nono opened his wallet and looked at the stack of one million taels of silver notes inside. His pupils trembled.
"Thank you, Master Qing Shui. Nonoyu swears to die..."
"It has nothing to do with me. This is all for Konoha, to make every companion's life better, Nono."
Qing Shui interrupted Yakushi Nono's speech of loyalty and said softly, "Anything else?"
Aburame Shiguro looked at the red-faced pharmacist Nono and raised his hand: "Master Qingshui, I want to go home."
In Shimura Danzo's roots, since they were all nameless people, they naturally had no family or family members to speak of.
As a tool, it only needs to stay in the showroom.
"Yes, you can come back every day after completing the task..."
Qing Shui shook his head and said helplessly:
"Let me make it clear. The New Root is an elite force to protect Konoha and eliminate the enemy. It is not a tool for me, Uchiha Qingshui, to use your power to gain fame. Each of you is a Konoha ninja with a name that deserves to be remembered, and you have the same rights as normal people..."
"If you don't understand, just learn from the Anbu. When you take off the mask, you will be yourself."
The members of the original root were silent. They no longer avoided Qingshui's gaze, but looked at him blankly.
It seems to be wondering, why would anyone want to turn a tool into a person?
"Go ahead and do what you want to do, but don't forget to practice..."
Qing Shui slowly looked at all the Root members and engraved the illusion into their hearts, silently erasing their impression of Shimura Danzo and stimulating their emotions.
In Qingshui's opinion, Shimura Danzo's control over the Root Ninjas is divided into two parts, and his methods are not very sophisticated.
Whether it was Yamato who was still a child, Sai who was close to adulthood, or Yakushi Nono who had already reached adulthood, these Root members had all done things that violated Danzo Shimura's orders under different emotional triggers.
Part of Shimura Danzo's control is through the oppression of curse seals, which control their personal freedom, deprive them of the ability to resist, and impose physical punishment.
The other part uses mental brainwashing, similar to Stockholm syndrome.
He used power, ninjutsu and rhetoric to make these ninjas who were captured from the Root develop a psychological dependence on him. Shimura Danzo controlled their life and death, and as long as he could keep them alive, they would be extremely grateful.
Coupled with the brainwashing of the so-called will of the root, he found a plausible excuse for the dirty things done by Shimura Danzo, and also made the fate of the root members bound to him when they executed his orders, and regarded Shimura Danzo's future as their own future.
It is not difficult for Qingshui to resolve these two issues.
The curse can be easily removed, and as for Shimura Danzo's brainwashing, Qingshui only needs to express that he will let bygones be bygones, and then have a certain respect for them, and finally use the illusion of the Sharingan to eliminate the last trace of fear of Shimura Danzo in their hearts.
But at the same time, Qingshui also showed his muscles, and the sense of oppression that was several times greater than that of Shimura Danzo replaced the fear in their hearts, and they subconsciously did not dare to betray Qingshui.
With a carrot in one hand and a stick in the other, no one wants to be a dog if they are human beings...
The members of the Root slowly stood up and looked at Qingshui with complicated eyes.
But starting from Yakushi Nono who was the first to pass by Qingshui, the Root members greeted Qingshui one by one, and finally, with excitement and a little fear in their hearts, they took off their masks and walked towards the gate of the Root.
Some of them want to go home, some just want to wander around the village freely...
It sounds ridiculous, but it is the most real appeal in the hearts of these poor people who have been trained by Shimura Danzo since childhood.
Qing Shui looked at the back of Yakushi Nono, chuckled and said, "Smart guy."
From answering Qingshui's name to being the first to raise her hand and make a request, Yakushi Nono used her identity as a member of the Root to skillfully coordinate with Qingshui's power and rhetoric, helping Qingshui break down the defenses in the hearts of others.
"As expected of the Root, there are so many talented people here, Tobirama..."
When Qing Shui was talking to Tobirama, he changed his tone to an excited one: "Look at the information of these ninjas!"
Senju Tobirama snorted: "Little boy, don't get carried away, the mission of the Root is not easy to accomplish..."
But Tobirama Senju felt very happy in his heart. When Qingshui burst out with chakra and eye power just now, the deep feeling of oppression even made him feel a little palpitated, and he even had the illusion of facing Uchiha Madara.
But so what?
Qingshui is just a little kid who knows how to show off in front of him!
Qing Shui ignored Tobirama and picked up a document, muttering: "Yamano Feng is good at the art of mind-transforming puppet seals. He attacks the enemy through the puppets under the spell. Once the puppet is attacked by the enemy, the enemy's mental power will be sealed, and the caster can take over the body."
"What a great technique..."
Senju Tobirama frowned: "Qingshui, this technique can only control the enemy for a short period of time. It has no killing ability. At most, it can cause chaos on the battlefield. Don't overestimate this technique."
"No, Tobirama, this is a better technique than your Impure World Destruction!"
There was a light in Qingshui's eyes, which seemed to blend into the darkness at the root:
"You just need to seal the detonating talisman in the puppet. When the enemy is possessed, pretend to be injured and call for support. Then you can kill multiple enemies by self-destructing!"
"And this move can cause panic in the enemy. It only takes a few times to make them panic. Who would dare to rescue the wounded?"
"Once there is a breach in trust, morale will become extremely low!"
"Compared to Impure World Reincarnation and Multiplication Detonation Talisman, this move is more popular and more economical and practical."
Qingshui thought: "Perhaps, we can capture some prisoners, imprint the Four Symbols Sealing Technique on them, and then manipulate them back to the enemy camp. What do you think?"
Senju Tobirama was silent. Although Qingshui's idea was not wrong, why did it sound so extreme...
Is it really that there is something wrong with the feng shui at the root?
"And this pot of poison technique is even more powerful!"
Qing Shui sighed sincerely: "Gather the corpses together and spread the poisonous insects among them, activate the barrier to make the poisonous insects reproduce rapidly, make the dead cells produce poisonous gas, and use the explosion to spread the poisonous gas to attack all creatures that come into contact with the poisonous fog..."
"The biggest problem with this move is that the explosion radius is still limited and cannot be moved. In addition, the poisonous fog will be restricted by the wind escape technique and may be blown away before entering the rapid infection period. It may even affect our own side."
Senju Tobirama nodded silently.
Fortunately, Qingshui still has his sanity...
"However, my medical ninjutsu is not afraid of this poisonous insect. My attainments in sealing techniques should also be able to move the poisonous insect barrier. If I quietly carve the Flying Thunder God Seal on the enemy and launch a surprise attack in the middle of the night, I can teleport to the enemy's formation with the barrier of this pot of poison technique and detonate it..."
Senju Tobirama took a deep breath. How on earth did this kid learn to be like this?
Senju Tobirama interrupted Qing Shui's thoughts and said solemnly:
"Qing Shui, you are being a little extreme. If you do this, Konoha will fight to the death with the other hidden villages. Don't do this unless you have no choice. You will regret it..."
Qing Shui waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Tobirama, I am the leader of the Root!"
"If there is darkness, let me bear it. This is the duty of the Root of Konoha!"
Senju Tobirama covered his face. At this moment, he felt that Qingshui's thinking was a little too similar to his.
But Qingshui's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he kept muttering:
"Inside: Four Symbols Sealing Technique, Pot of Poison Technique, Impure World Reincarnation, Mutual Multiplication of Explosive Talisman Technique..."
Senju Tobirama hesitated to speak. He wanted to say something, but it seemed that all these ninjutsu were invented by him...
But he also had a vague expectation in his heart.
What would be the enemy's expression when his forbidden technique appeared on the battlefield without restriction?
At that time, he was still subject to the restrictions of Hashirama Senju and Mito Uzumaki...
But Qingshui, no one can stop him.
Senju Tobirama coughed lightly: "Qingshui, I have an idea, listen to it..."
Senju Tobirama followed Qingshui's rhythm!
Second update! Good night everyone!
Another day in Japan...
Chapter 122: Konoha's Notice of Taunting the Ninja World
The country of bears, the place for exchanging gold.
Kakuzu was carrying a box full of banknotes and a stack of newly purchased information in his arms, and he was walking and thinking.
"The situation in the ninja world has really become turbulent since the death of Uzumaki Mito..."
"The poor economy of Sand Village, the ambitions of Cloud Village, the undisguised arms race of Iwagakure, the internal cleansing of Mist Village, and Hanzo of Rain Village do not seem to be honest. With the accumulation of these fierce internal and external contradictions, Konoha, which is immersed in peace and abundance, will be the first to be cut..."
Kakuzu, who is extremely experienced in the black market, has already smelled the scent of war from various intelligence reports.
The entire ninja world is like a powder keg. Whether due to hatred for defeat, internal collapse, or external ambitions, capable hidden villages are waiting for an opportunity to start a battlefield and reshuffle the landscape of the ninja world.
After agreeing to work for Qingshui, Kakuzu wanted to work diligently, but the problem was that his boss never contacted him actively, let alone assigned him any work.
This made Kakuzu very uncomfortable, and he could only spontaneously kill some stray ninjas to make money and collect some information for Qingshui to show that he did not break his promise and was working seriously.
But the strange thing is that the more Kakuzu immersed himself in working for Qingshui, the more fulfilled he felt.
After betraying Takigakure, Kakuzu's pursuit of money was pathological. For a ninja who no longer had a home, the stable employment relationship in the money exchange office and the black market, and the universal exchange function of money, all made him feel a sense of belonging that he was still alive, filling the emptiness in his heart.
The betrayal of human hearts is what Kakuzu is most reluctant to face, and it is also the shortcoming he is trying hard to make up for.
And what Qing Shui said after defeating him——
