Chapter 496 Meeting and sharing!
Delegations from major ninja villages!
Except for the "closed-off" Kirigakure, the remaining four major ninja villages are all present.
The envoys from the nobles and daimyo should not expect such a quick response.
And this time they were talking about a diplomatic mission, but in reality there were only a few people coming, at most important figures from each village.
The meeting place is naturally the office.
Anyway, the area is hundreds of square meters, so let alone a few people, even hundreds of people can be squeezed in.
There is another advantage to choosing a place like this to meet.
There is only one seat!
That is, behind the huge desk, everyone else has to stand, thus highlighting the noble status of the person sitting.
Of course, it was impossible for Tang Ping to meet with these people alone, so he called several senior executives.
However, people with sensitive identities like Nono, Uzumaki Kasumi, Nohara Rin, Hozuki Mangetsu, Aburame... are not included.
Finally, Dohei sat on the chair, with Uchiha Mei and Hyuga Sogetsu standing on his left and right, followed by Uchiha Shizuka, Ashia Kiyomi, Yasiro, and Yekura.
Well, although Ye Cang wanted to continue training the students from the Wind Country, he was rejected.
Because Dohei knew very well that once she did this, it would be easy to create a "Sunagakure faction" inside the castle tower.
It's not that factions are not allowed. After all, if there are no factions in a large force, the people in the upper echelons will be worried.
The problem is that it is too early to form cliques now.
Anyway, Tang Ping's attitude is very clear. No matter what happens after graduation, sooner or later they will be divided into small groups based on their backgrounds, relationships, etc.
But don't even think about it while you're in school, just try your best to feel the baptism of the 'will of the scorching sun'.
Closed-door teaching and all-round brainwashing!
If it is used on an adult ninja, the effect will definitely not be very good, but for ninja school students, this trick is a bit too shameless.
As for the effect, you only need to look at the fact that most of the Konoha ninjas believe in the "Will of Fire" and dream of becoming Hokage to know how great the brainwashing effect is.
I have to say, although Sarutobi Hiruzen is not good in other aspects, he is really good at brainwashing and can be said to be the strongest in the ninja world.
Even Tang Ping borrowed a lot of methods from the other party, and combined them with some methods he had seen before traveling through time, he came up with an enhanced version.
He couldn't guarantee that there wouldn't be any rebellious ninjas in the future, but the proportion would definitely be pitifully small.
The Will of the Fiery Sun can not only greatly increase the loyalty of faction members, but most importantly, it can enhance cohesion.
Since everyone has the same ideas, how can the centripetal force not be strong?
Anyway, Tang Ping can be careless in other aspects, but he is completely obsessed with propaganda and brainwashing.
And Ye Cang had no objection to Tang Ping's arrangement.
Now she has already turned into Tang Ping's shape.
The curse seal of heaven!
The effect is really overbearing.
Of course, the curse is not just for brainwashing, it can also greatly enhance your strength. If it is fully activated, it can definitely take your strength to a higher level.
The difficulty of an ordinary ninja advancing one level is completely different from that of a Kage-level ninja advancing one level.
Anyway, Ye Cang treasures the Heaven's Curse Seal very much.
Step, step!
Several people came in led by two Uchiha.
Maki from the Sand Village, Huangtu from the Iwagakure Village, Dodai from the Kumogakure Village, and Nara Shikaku from Konoha.
Well, other ninja villages did send people, but how could they possibly see Dohei?
Never mind the past, but now the castle tower is definitely only one level lower than the five major ninja villages.
There is no way. The population of the castle tower (only within the territory of the Land of Fire) is hundreds of thousands, which is no less than that of Konoha.
As for ninjas, they are no longer just a few in number like before. They have absorbed a large number of ninjas, and with those trained by themselves, the number has now exceeded two thousand.
Yes, that's the number of registered ninjas in the castle tower now.
This is without taking into account the Mist Ninjas. If the Mist Ninjas are included, the number of registered ninjas is at least over 6,000.
The trend is achieved!
At this time, the castle tower is already qualified to challenge the Sand Ninja, the Rock Ninja, and the Cloud Ninja. As for Konoha, even if the flying troops are included, it cannot be a match.
If we launch an attack now, the entire ninja world will surely besiege us, so Dou Ping divided the territories into several pieces to avoid being exposed at all.
Even if we don't count other forces, the two thousand ninjas and five thousand flying troops in the Land of Fire are enough for him to act like a superior in front of the four people.
"Master Tang Ping!"*4
The four of them greeted at the same time, even though Tang Ping was younger than three of them.
In the ninja world, status is never determined by age, but only by strength.
Even Nara Naku, the Konoha military strategist, called him "Sir" at this time.
Because this is not Konoha, and he is negotiating with the castle tower on behalf of Konoha, not as a Konoha ninja from either side, so it is not strange to address him like this.
If both parties were Konoha ninjas, perhaps just saying "Dohei-kun" would be enough.
After all, Nara Shikaku is Konoha's military strategist and the leader of the senior ninja squad, so he still has some power.
"I already know why you're here. You're here for the airship, right?"
Tang Ping was too lazy to talk nonsense and exposed the previous nonsense.
"Then I wonder if you are willing to hand it over, Lord Tang Ping?"
Tutai, the old fox, spoke first.
The four people's right to speak is naturally linked to the strength of their own village.
Just like Maki, he is not only the youngest but also the least confident.
If the Sand Ninja had not tied with the Rock Ninja in the Land of Birds some time ago, they might not even have the qualifications to come with the others.
Although Sand Ninja is also one of the five major ninja villages, the other major ninja villages look down on them.
It was precisely this kind of concept that caused the Rock Ninjas to not go all out in the early stages of the Guano War, and to be restrained by the Cloud Ninjas when they wanted to go all out later.
If they all came out in full force from the very beginning, the Sand Ninjas really wouldn't be able to hold on.
After realizing that they had no chance to gather manpower to defeat the Sand Ninjas in one fell swoop, the Rock Ninjas resorted to a war of attrition, preparing to bully the other side's logistical supplies.
But they didn't expect that the Sand Ninjas were secretly importing all kinds of supplies from the River Country.
Even though the price was not low, it would be extremely costly to transport it to the front line, but this could directly drag down the Rock Ninja and result in a "tie".
Now you understand how difficult it is for the Sand Ninja to tie, right?
Anyway, even though Maki lost to Douhei in the Chunin Exam, he still has a very good impression of him now.
Well...no matter who you are, you will probably have this attitude when you meet a financial sponsor.
Among the current Sand Ninjas, many of them rely on the castle tower for their livelihood, and the two sides can even be called "allies", without having signed a treaty.
As for Nara Shikaku?
Knowing that Tang Ping was a rebellious person, he gave up the right to speak to avoid offending him.
"The technology cannot be handed over!" Tang Ping flatly refused, and before the four people could change their expressions, he added, "But the finished product can be sold!"
His words also made the four of them relax.
It's good to have something to talk about. The most worrying thing is that it will be like the previous aircraft, where there is nothing to talk about at all.
“Don’t know how to sell it?”
Huang Tu spoke.
It is impossible for him to just be a decoration forever and give the right to speak to Tutai, the old fox.
"Shares!", Dohei said the plan in his mind, "Half of the airships produced by our castle tower will be used by ourselves, and the remaining five major ninja villages will each purchase a 10% share. If you don't buy, it will be deemed that you have automatically given up your share!"
Yes, he was planning to pull the five major ninja villages onto his chariot.
This cake is so huge!
If you dare to take the castle tower for yourself, believe it or not, the entire ninja world will come to besiege it in a matter of minutes.
The impact of ironclad ships was not so great.
This is because ordinary ships can also sail on the sea, at most they are much worse in all aspects. At the same time, they can also produce sanctions themselves. Finished products already exist, at most they are much worse in all aspects.
But airships are different.
This is an exclusive monopoly, there is no similar product at all. If you want to keep the castle tower all to yourself, you are totally thinking too much.
Even Konoha, the strongest village in the ninja world, wouldn't dare to play like this.
So Dohei was also very cunning. He directly pulled the five major ninja villages onto his chariot and let them share the pressure with him.
Even though they only account for 10% of the purchase share, the ninjas are not stupid. They have naturally thought of the large-scale use of airships a long time ago and understand how great the impact will be, so they attach so much importance to it.
A subversive product!
This is the consensus among all major ninja villages.
After getting a 10% purchase share, it can bring huge benefits whether you buy it for your own use or for resale.
