Some people set up ladders to repair houses, some carried various construction tools through the streets, and some set up stalls by the roadside to sell food directly on the roadside.
The adults were either working hard or chatting casually, the children were playing and playing, or some sensible people came to help. Judging from the atmosphere, everything seemed to be no different from before.
The Uzumaki Village now feels like a waste to Lei Luo. All the Uzumaki tribe members seem to have forgotten the pain caused by the war and are rebuilding their homes with a cheerful and optimistic attitude.
If you zoom out further, you can see the fragments of the wall in the distance. There are scattered whirlpool ninjas using various earth escape ninjutsu to clean up various ruins.
Then, the construction workers of the Whirlpool clan took over, either laying the foundation or transporting building materials back and forth, it was a lively scene.
While walking forward, Uzumaki Cheng glanced at the surrounding scene, and at the same time said to Lei Luo with a little emotion:
"After these few days of rest, the mentality of the tribe has gradually eased. The look you see in your eyes now took a lot of thought from me."
As he spoke, Uzumaki Cheng pointed into the distance and said with a smile:
"With the participation of the ninjas, the construction team expects to clear all the building debris in about half a month."
"If everything goes well, Uzushio Village should be able to return to its former appearance in about three to five months."
"When the time comes, you must come and take a look."
Lei Luo pondered for a while and inadvertently glanced at Uzumaki Cheng, only to see that the other person had already put on the white kimono that symbolized the identity of the Uzumaki clan leader. His expression was natural and peaceful, and he was filled with a faint sense of confidence.
His red hair swayed in the wind, his beard was cleanly shaved, and his white kimono was fluttering. If combined with his pretty good looks, he looked quite talented.
At this time, Uzumaki Cheng, no matter in appearance, demeanor, or behavior, had the demeanor of a general. Unknowingly, it was completely different from the impression he had given Lei Luo in the past.
Is the change that power brings to people really that big?
Recalling a previous conversation with the other party, Lei Luo withdrew his gaze and did not look at Uzumaki Cheng. Instead, he looked at the scene on the street and asked seemingly casually:
"Three to five months... Uzumaki Cheng, do you think it will take this long for me to build my own power team?"
Sensing the deep meaning in Lei Luo's words, he seemed to be dissatisfied that it would take him three to five months to start his next plan. Uzumaki Cheng unconsciously slowed down. He frowned and thought for a while, and then
Just now he pretended to be helpless and spread his hands and said:
"Sir Lei Luo, no matter whether our clan wants to move to Konoha or not, I will not give up Uzushio Village as a place."
"After all, this has been the ancestral land of my clan for thousands of years. Just leaving without caring... Let alone me, the clan leader, it is impossible for all the clan members under me to accept it."
"At least, if we repair this place before leaving and leave some old people who don't want to leave, I believe the rebellious mood among the tribesmen will be much lower."
"I think this will also be beneficial to the cooperation between you and me, including the implementation of the subsequent third and fourth steps of the plan."
Although Uzumaki Cheng seems very helpless on the surface, Lei Luo now understands him somewhat, so...
After thinking about it, Lei Luo decided to change the topic:
"How much time do you think it will take for me to have enough power to complete it, like you, um..."
A slightly unnatural glance at the few Whirlpool tribesmen not far away, and seeing them greeting him, Lei Luo subconsciously nodded in that direction, and then continued what he said before, and whispered to the two
Word question export:
"action?"
Knowing what Lei Luo was referring to, Uzumaki Cheng smiled and replied calmly: "In my opinion, you need at least three to five years to accumulate your connections and power."
"Otherwise, if we want to compete with Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, even with the support of our clan, the combined strength of both of us is still not enough."
"Oh?" Lei Luo curled his lips disapprovingly, turned his head to look at Uzumaki Cheng, and retorted:
"In terms of high-end combat power alone, I think I have now surpassed Hiruzen Sarutobi and those advisor elders."
"So, as long as I directly carry out the beheading operation, quickly make everything final, and give a speech like yours, the power of Konoha will definitely fall into my hands."
Noticing the cold glint in Lei Luo's eyes, he obviously really thought there was nothing wrong with doing this. Although Uzumaki Cheng secretly complained in his heart, he still maintained a peaceful smile on the surface and said calmly:
"Sir Lei Luo, there is one thing I must remind you. Whether in the short term or in the long term, if you want to successfully achieve your goals, it is far from enough to have a few high-end combat forces."
"There are actually many internal reasons why I am successful. It is not just about going up and saying something, nor is it just about inciting people's emotions."
Seeing that Uzumaki Cheng was speaking clearly and clearly, and his expression was even more confident, as if everything was under his control, Lei Luo couldn't help but become a little curious, and immediately asked:
"So...what's the difference between us?"
At this time, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians around Lei Luo and Uzumaki Cheng, and there were more and more various building debris.
It turned out that they had unknowingly arrived at the ruins of Uzumaki Village. This place was sparsely populated and was covered by pieces of collapsed houses and messy rubble. It seemed that some things could be said freely.
Uzumaki Cheng looked around calmly, and when he saw that there was no longer a clansman in his field of vision, he slightly suppressed the faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and his face became a little more serious.
"First of all, the situation in Uzushio Village is completely different from that of Konoha."
"We are the only Uzumaki clan here. The conflicts of interest are relatively simple, and the characters of the clan members are relatively simple. As long as I win the majority of people's hearts, the power of Uzushio Village, and even the country of Uzumaki, will be in my hands."
"But that's not the case in Konoha. There are many, many ninja clans in Konoha, including many great ninja clans like Hinata and Uchiha, who were once as famous as us Uzumaki."
"How difficult are these ninja groups? I think the situation in Kirigakure Village should set a good example. I believe you, Mr. Lei Luo, have some understanding of the grudges between Shuoyue and Shuangyue?"
