Following Iori's words, the surrounding air seemed to solidify, and only the occasional sound of wind and distant birdsong broke the silence.
A trace of struggle flashed across Minato's face, and complex emotions were revealed in his eyes.
His voice was hoarse, and every word seemed to be spoken after careful consideration. "So Mr. Iori, do you have a better way to deal with it?"
The corners of Iori's mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of evil in his smile, like the poisonous snake that tempted Adam Eve to eat the fruit of wisdom:
"Get rid of the nobles and daimyo, and let the ninjas rule Ninja World themselves. Even if there are black sheep, we can handle them ourselves, instead of reporting the daimyo and watching them be safe."
"Senior Minato can think about it for himself, how many of the tasks he received in the past were caused by nobles who were not human beings."
Minato felt a surge of complicated emotions in his heart, and he recalled the past killing missions.
Although the vast majority of people deserved their crimes, there were also many civilians who became bandits or bandits because of excessive taxes and offending the nobles.
These memories made him feel heavy. Precisely because Minato is a good person, it was even harder for him to accept all this.
At this time, Kushina stood up, with a hint of pride in her voice. "We, Land of Whirlpools, don't do that!"
Iori said without looking back, "That's because you are a small country with few people, and you are related by relatives, so you don't have many people to bully you."
"And you are not recognized as nobles, right? After being destroyed by other ninja villages, no nobles came out to condemn them. If it were another country, they would have been scolded and stopped by the daimyo of their own country."
Kushina was unable to refute, so he could only retreat angrily.
Minato glanced at her apologetically, but did not immediately comfort her, but continued to ask, "Then the noble is gone, what should we do? Will the ninjas manage it themselves?"
His tone was a little confused, and Iori's rebellious words opened a new door for him.
The ninjas had never thought about these issues in the past. They just acted according to the established rules and never questioned the authority of the nobles.
In Iori's previous life, he had always wondered why the daimyo and the aristocracy could always be so powerful. Even when Fourth Shinobi World War was destroyed, they could not show any strength.
In other words, they are stuck in the village and really just rely on money.
But it doesn't matter that Land of Fire has always been rich in funds. The unlucky ones of Land of Wind were choked by the daimyo's use of funds. Even Kazekage had to dig Gold Dust in the desert in exchange for money to support the village.
Under such circumstances, he is still respectfully treating the daimyo as a dog, Iori is really hard to understand.
It was not until Iori lived in Konoha for more than ten years after reincarnation that he was finally able to understand their thoughts. If Iori had not always had the memory of his previous life, he might have been assimilated.
For Genin, the existence of daimyo and nobles is like gravity to them. It is a natural existence and a part of the world. Under normal circumstances, no one will question it at all.
In the integrated village-state system, ninjas above the level of jounin enjoy the same rights as the nobles, so they will naturally not oppose the nobles.
A few dissatisfied ninjas will be labeled as traitors and cast aside by the entire ninja world.
The huddled aristocratic system tied up the ninjas with funds and honor, making them their own tools.
"So Mr. Iori, are you ready to subvert a country and a village?"
The two concepts collided fiercely in Minato's mind. There was a huge conflict between the deep-rooted education in the past and his own thinking, making his face look extremely ugly.
His hands clenched unconsciously, and his knuckles turned pale from exertion, revealing his inner uneasiness and turmoil.
Iori looked very satisfied when he saw Minato's expression, which means that good people like Minato and Jiraiya who care about the lower class would be touched.
If it were Orochimaru, Tsunade and others, Iori would probably not be able to make waves in their hearts.
Iori looked at Setsuna Uchiha and Fugaku next to them. The excitement on their faces was obvious, and they obviously did not fully understand Iori's intention.
In their eyes, they probably just realized that the clan leader wanted to overthrow the daimyo and rule the world by himself, and nothing else.
Shisui, on the other hand, fell into deep thought and was obviously as touched as Minato.
"I plan to study how to increase the number of ninjas so that everyone can become ninjas, or chakra users."
"Then let all ninjas with strength below jounin exist as living or industrial ninjas."
"If you want to become a ninja who specializes in fighting, then you should first become a jounin."
Iori smiled gently, but when Minato thought that there were probably only a few hundred jounin in a ninja village, and a small ninja village might even have only more than a hundred people, the cruelty in Iori's words became very obvious.
"Can Chunin be supported by missions that don't require combat? Nowadays, only D-level ninjutsu does not require combat. Are these rewards enough?" Minato asked with some worry.
"Then it depends on the subsequent development. I won't launch the plan until everything is ready. I hope that those who die during the reform will be deserving people."
"I would not be able to accept it if a large number of civilians and low-level ninjas died during my reforms. Maybe this is idealistic, but isn't that what power exists for?"
"So, Minato, are you coming to support me?"
Iori looked at Minato with a smile and stretched out his hand.
Minato hesitated for a long time, struggling and weighing in his heart.
Finally, he said to Iori, "Sorry, I don't want to change rashly. I won't object to your plan, but I won't support it too much."
Iori nodded gently. He didn't force it, but there was a hint of disappointment on his face.
Even ninjas like Minato find it difficult to accept the disappearance of daimyo, which makes Iori realize that changing the deep-rooted concepts of ninjas will be more difficult than he imagined.
Minato's rejection made Iori more determined to train a new generation of ninjas. When the concept of adult ninjas is difficult to change, training new people is the top priority.
As the registration time quietly ended, Iori turned around and said to them, "Let's go, let's see the quality of Uchiha's new blood."
Then he took the lead to set off, followed closely by Fugaku. As the competition approached, there was finally some worry on his face.
Although he believed in Itachi's talent, the current Itachi was too young. Facing the Ninja Academy student with Genin strength, he didn't know if Itachi could win.
Several people walked up to the stage. Iori stood on a high place, overlooking the Uchiha people in front of them, and began to speak.
