Uchiha Jin didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Taking advantage of this war, we have completely taken control of the Land of Waves! At the same time, Shisui should already be at the Daimyo Manor right now!"
Minato Namikaze and the others were all startled upon hearing this, and then showed expressions of excitement!
Minato Namikaze suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said with a trembling voice, "Could it be that the revolution... is going to start early?"
According to their original plan, everything would only gradually begin after Minato Namikaze became Konoha's Fourth Hokage and gained core influence within Konoha!
But now it seems Uchiha Jin must have encountered something on the Konoha versus Kirigakure Frontline Battlefield!
Uchiha Jin nodded and said, "Plans can't keep up with changes. I met someone on the frontline battlefield!"
Minato Namikaze asked, "Who?"
Minato Namikaze was a little curious, wondering what kind of person could make Uchiha Jin change their long-planned strategy!
Uchiha Jin replied, "Kado!"
Minato Namikaze was startled upon hearing this, and searched carefully in his memory, but had no impression of this name at all.
Uchiha Jin smiled when he saw this and explained, "Don't bother. Kado is not a Ninja, but a merchant! He is the president of the largest shipping company in the Shinobi World!"
Only then did Minato Namikaze feel relieved. He didn't know much about things unrelated to Ninjas, so it was normal not to know Kado!
Not only Minato Namikaze, but most Ninjas in this world probably wouldn't pay attention to ordinary people!
Uchiha Jin shook his head and continued, "Kado is one of the richest people in this world. His company basically monopolizes the global shipping business, so he can be considered as rich as a nation!"
"This time he was preparing to smuggle a batch of weapons in the Land of Water and we accidentally ran into him. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for us to find him normally!"
Minato Namikaze's heart moved, and he said, "Jin, it seems you have already taken control of this Kado and his assets?"
"That's right!" Uchiha Jin nodded and said, "Controlling Kado means we hold a never-ending source of wealth!"
"With sufficient financial support, many problems will be easily solved!"
"We also have the confidence to start the revolution!"
Minato Namikaze fell silent upon hearing this, thinking about the pros and cons of the whole matter.
Akimichi Todo, who was beside him, frowned and said, "Jin, Ninjas attacking ordinary people... this seems a bit against the rules!"
In the Shinobi World, there is an unwritten rule that Ninjas must not attack ordinary people without reason!
Of course, the ordinary people here refer to those of noble status, such as the Daimyo of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, royalty, and nobles!
It is unknown when this rule was passed down, but up to now, the official Ninjas of various countries have tacitly abided by this rule!
"Rules?" Uchiha Jin smiled upon hearing this and looked at Akimichi Todo, saying, "Brother Todo, rules are dead, but people are alive! Don't forget what our ultimate goal is!"
Akimichi Todo's expression became serious, and he blurted out subconsciously, "To completely change this world!"
Since the birth of Ninjas thousands of years ago, the conflicts between them have never stopped!
From the chaotic Warring States Period with its large-scale conflicts between various Ninja clans, escalating to the current era of large-scale wars between various Ninja villages, this world seems to have never had a moment of peace!
The long-standing wars have made more and more people hate war!
Even the few final BOSSes in this world are pursuing so-called peace!
This also shows how much the people of this world detest war!
And Uchiha Jin also used this reason to gather a group of like-minded people!
Uchiha Jin looked at Akimichi Todo and explained solemnly, "But changing this world cannot succeed by just changing the Ninjas!"
"How many Ninjas are there in total in this world?"
"Even generously estimated, there won't be more than two hundred thousand people!"
"Then how many people are there in total in this world?"
"This number is likely to be counted in the units of hundreds of millions!"
"In other words, the proportion of Ninjas among the total population of this world doesn't even reach one ten-thousandth!"
Through his self-questioning and self-answering, Uchiha Jin explained the essence of this world to Akimichi Todo and the others from an angle they had never touched upon!
Uchiha Jin continued, "In the beginning, Ninjas only accepted requests and performed missions. But because of their powerful combat ability, hiring even one Genin was much more cost-effective than hiring ten samurai!"
"Ninjas were also gradually referred to as tools, mission machines!"
"Over time, Ninjas became the main flashpoint for conflicts in this world!"
"From ancient times to the present, the conflicts that have erupted between Ninjas are essentially extensions of the struggles between their employers!"
"Therefore, to stop war and completely change this world, it's useless to only start with the Ninjas!"
"If the root cause is not changed, war will never end!"
Uchiha Jin's expression gradually became serious, and he said in a deep voice, "I know this path is destined to be full of thorns, and whether we can reach the end is still unknown!"
"But whether in the past, present, or future, there will never be a shortage of people pursuing peace and change!"
"One generation's destiny is the destiny of ten thousand generations!"
"Rather than leaving all problems and difficulties for future generations to solve, I would rather one generation endure the hardships of three generations and fight the battles of three generations to pave a grand path for those who come after!"
As Uchiha Jin spoke, the expressions of Akimichi Todo and the others slowly changed from initial silence and confusion to determination!
Especially Minato Namikaze, his eyes were burning brightly at this moment, like two fiercely blazing torches!
The original Minato Namikaze, influenced by his teacher Jiraiya, would also believe in the so-called theory of causality and destiny, and would subconsciously entrust some unsolvable problems to future generations!
But now, under Uchiha Jin's influence, Minato Namikaze only felt that there were no unsolvable problems in this world, and no insurmountable difficulties!
Even if they ultimately failed, it would still be considered clearing a wrong path for those who come after! Accumulating experience for success!
This is the responsibility and accountability a senior should have!
Akimichi Todo spoke in a booming voice, "Jin, you see further than all of us!"
Minato Namikaze also said sincerely, "Jin, actually, you are more suitable to be Hokage than me and Senior Orochimaru!"
Uchiha Jin smiled and shook his head, saying, "Whether a person is suitable for a position is not just about talent; it requires consideration from many aspects!"
"Moreover, Hokage is just the beginning!"
"Our path will not stop at Konoha; our journey is the sea of stars!"
