The next morning, the Daimyo Mansion suddenly posted a notice to recruit one hundred ninjas.
This immediately attracted the attention of countless ninjas.
Becoming an imperial ninja of the Daimyo Mansion was a good job with few risks.
However, despite this, not many ninjas gathered in the recruitment interview house.
But this situation changed after ten minutes when the Daimyo Mansion spread the news that the Daimyo would be engaged to the Fourth Kazekage Rasa.
Certain bad rumors collapsed on their own.
A large number of ninjas dressed differently immediately put down some concerns in their hearts and gathered in the house specially used for recruitment.
After several simple tests.
All those who were finally selected were suddenly told a very strange requirement.
They were required to attach their photos on a piece of paper, and then write down their simple origins and what they were best at.
This form, very novel in the ninja world, instantly stumped a large number of ninjas.
An hour later, dozens of thin sheets of paper were delivered to the Daimyo's office.
Rasa sat on the chair in the Daimyo's office, with Ten'i sitting on his lap.
Ten'i pressed her ample chest tightly against Rasa's chest, burying her whole person in his neck, quietly inhaling the scent on his body.
Rasa was flipping through the list of ninjas who were finally selected after several tests in his hand.
Suddenly, Rasa stared straight at the photo of a woman on the paper in his hand.
A trace of strangeness appeared on his handsome face.
Ten'i felt Rasa's body stiffen slightly. She moved her face away from Rasa's neck and looked curiously at the paper in his hand.
When she saw the photo of the blonde gentle beauty on the paper, a trace of strangeness also appeared on Ten'i's dignified face.
"Rasa, although this wandering ninja looks quite beautiful, you wouldn't be interested in her, would you?"
Rasa restrained his expression and shook his head:
"How is that possible? I'm not a lecherous ghost who jumps on every beauty he sees."
Ten'i gave a noncommittal "Mmh" and casually scanned the female ninja's self-introduction.
Originally just glancing casually, but just a casual glance, Ten'i couldn't take her eyes off.
She murmured:
"Nonō Yakushi, from a ninja family, has rich experience in managing young children and is proficient in medical ninjutsu, with a particularly good temper?"
Rasa looked at the blonde woman with a gentle smile in the photo and said with strange eyes:
"Nonō Yakushi, a very good talent, right?"
Ten'i agreed, but soon she wondered:
"With her conditions, does she need to enter the Daimyo Mansion?"
Although the treatment of imperial ninjas in the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Wind was quite good.
But it was only relative. The treatment of top-level ninjas couldn't compare with big ninja villages at all.
And no big ninja village would dislike medical ninjas.
Especially since this woman claimed to be proficient in medical ninjutsu, and now war had started.
Even the five major ninja villages would consider letting a ninja like her, who switched careers halfway, join as an exception.
So wouldn't it be better for this woman to join a rich big ninja village like Konoha directly?
Why did she have to enter the poor and remote Land of Wind?
"Who cares? Arrange her directly to your side, let her be responsible for helping you process documents."
"The Sand Village will build an orphanage soon. Since she has rich experience in managing young children, let her be the orphanage director."
A smile of interest hung on Rasa's face, and he made the final decision directly.
Ten'i looked hesitantly at Nonō Yakushi, who was a great beauty in every aspect.
"This... don't we need to investigate her background?"
Rasa immediately denied it flatly:
"No need. Let this woman stay by your side to help you process documents and guide you in ninjutsu by the way."
"Talents should be used in the right place."
Of course, Rasa knew who Nonō Yakushi was.
But he didn't expect that Kabuto Yakushi's adoptive mother in the original work, the former strongest spy of Root, Nonō Yakushi.
She would actually infiltrate the Land of Wind personally and come to the door miraculously to be an imperial ninja.
But considering that at this time, Nonō Yakushi hadn't completely retired yet, it was quite normal for her to appear here.
Presumably, the rumor that appeared inexplicably was also spread by her.
This was very consistent with Danzo's style of playing dirty tricks behind the back.
But since Danzo suddenly went crazy and let her infiltrate the Daimyo Mansion as an imperial ninja, he would accept it unceremoniously.
As for the possible conspiracy?
Rasa had plenty of means to subdue her directly.
Wearing old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses, dressed in ordinary ninja clothes, with a curvy and voluptuous figure, Nonō Yakushi stood at the door with a gentle expression.
Thinking back now.
Nonō Yakushi began to regret writing down her real name rashly and attaching her real photo.
Although when she was in Root, she always wore a mask to show people.
Except for Danzo and a few top leaders of Konoha who knew her true face.
Other Root ninjas didn't know her true face at all.
When executing other missions, she also used various aliases and never used the real name Nonō Yakushi.
Therefore, the possibility of being discovered by the Land of Wind was negligible.
But Nonō Yakushi still felt a little regretful.
As the best spy of Root, she shouldn't use her real name and true face when executing any mission.
But facing that novel self-introduction requirement.
She actually wrote down her real name and what she was really good at without much thought, and took photos on the spot.
"Is it Nonō Yakushi? Daimyo Ten'i invites you in."
Suddenly, the heavy wooden door of the office was pushed open.
A man wearing an iron mask walked out and said coldly.
As soon as Nonō Yakushi saw this man wearing an iron mask, she became tense instantly.
Years of spy career, the instinct honed by walking between life and death repeatedly told Nonō Yakushi.
The man in front of her was very strong!
Nonō Yakushi became nervous in her heart.
She never expected that there would be such a strong existence among the imperial ninjas of the Daimyo Mansion!
Although nervous inside, Nonō Yakushi, with very high professional qualities as a spy, showed no abnormality on her face.
She narrowed her eyes, showing a standard gentle smile.
"Yes, My Lord."
Rasa looked at Nonō Yakushi in front of him, who had a petite figure but was very coordinated overall, looking both petite and slender.
"Is that so? Then please."
After the two walked into the office.
Rasa stood aside properly, acting as a guard.
Nonō Yakushi glanced at the man wearing an iron mask standing not far away from the corner of her eye.
No wonder Daimyo Ten'i, who had only been in office for half a month, was so confident.
She actually just arranged for a few female ninjas to ask some simple questions, and then let them come in for interviews.
Not worried at all that some spies would sneak in to assassinate her.
With such a powerful existence guarding her, of course she was assured.
Thinking this, Nonō Yakushi looked at the noble white-haired girl dressed in gorgeous clothes sitting behind the desk.
The noble white-haired girl spoke unhurriedly, with a calm smile on her face.
But contrary to Nonō Yakushi's expectation, she began to ask her some strange questions.
For example, a very naughty child often did various mischievous things.
What was the psychology behind his actions, and how to make him stop being naughty?
Relying on her rich experience in adopting orphans, Nonō Yakushi answered these strange questions cautiously.
The girl sitting on the chair immediately clapped her hands, showing a reserved smile on her face:
"Not bad. It can be seen that you have very rich sympathy and carefulness."
"From now on, you will stay by my side and be responsible for helping me categorize and manage daily documents."
"As for the salary, let's say 300,000 ryo a month first, how about it?"
Nonō Yakushi's expression flickered.
She thought that gaining trust would require months of secret observation and probing by the Daimyo Mansion.
But she never expected that she would gain the Daimyo's trust so easily.
Starting to help her process documents as soon as she joined? This was too easy, right?
As for the salary of 300,000 ryo a month, for a Jonin like her, it could only be considered average.
But Nonō Yakushi came here to execute the Root spy mission.
In a sense, was this remuneration her part-time income?
"Alright, Nonō, I can call you that, right? You can start helping me process documents now."
Nonō Yakushi responded gently.
Subconsciously adjusted her glasses and walked quickly to the desk.
Nonō Yakushi, as the strongest intelligence ninja of the spy organization Root.
Her cultural literacy was also among the best among many ninjas in Konoha.
Simply classifying documents and processing documents was a piece of cake for her!
Rasa stood straight properly not far away, observing Nonō Yakushi from the corner of his eye.
Seeing her neatly classifying various documents, Rasa praised in his heart.
Not bad, this was the secretary he wanted.
Must have both outstanding ability and outstanding beauty and figure!
If there's something to do, the secretary does it; if there's nothing to do, do the secretary. This was the life he wanted.
"Exchange for High Grade Affection Doubling Fruit to use on Nonō Yakushi!"
Nonō Yakushi, who had safely devoted herself to the identity of a secretary.
Suddenly felt a shudder all over her body, then continued to process the documents in her hand nonchalantly.
Half an hour later, all the ninjas who entered the final selection had been interviewed one by one.
When Nonō Yakushi looked up, she found that the man wearing the mask was no longer in the room.
But there were a dozen more Chakras equivalent to Chunin in the room.
Several devastatingly beautiful female ninjas also sat around, closing their eyes to refine Chakra.
Nonō Yakushi recognized at a glance that these female ninjas sitting on chairs, seemingly having high status.
Were the female ninjas who interviewed her initially.
As for Rasa, he was currently in the Land of Grass responsible for dealing with some aftermath matters.
After a period of time.
The Grass Ninja Village completed unification.
The news that the new Grass ninja leader Yoshina led Grass ninjas.
To sweep away all wandering ninjas and bandits hovering everywhere in the Land of Grass also spread.
Soon, the intelligence of the new Grass ninja leader Yoshina was first obtained by Konoha, which was closest.
"Red hair, in her twenties, weird means, can make people commit suicide."
The Third Hokage murmured these keywords.
Finally, his expression moved slightly, and he said uncertainly:
"Is this new leader of the Grass Ninja Village, Yoshina, a member of the Uzumaki clan?"
Tsunade, who had just returned to Konoha, sat next to him and said snappily:
"Nine out of ten. Such dazzling red hair."
"Let's ignore her. It's also a good thing for us that the Grass Ninja Village ends its long-term civil strife."
"And we have to win her over!"
The Third Hokage nodded cautiously. The Land of Grass bordered the Land of Fire.
Most importantly, the Land of Earth was also on the other side of the Land of Grass, also bordering the Land of Grass.
If the Stone Village wanted to attack Konoha at the fastest speed.
Then passing directly through the territory of the Land of Grass was the best way.
If they could win over the unified Land of Grass, even if only passing intelligence.
Even if the Stone Village really wanted to pass through the territory of the Land of Grass.
With advance notice from the Grass Ninja Village, they could also prepare in advance.
The Third Hokage clapped his hands gently, and a masked female ninja instantly appeared in the room.
This female ninja knelt on one knee, lowering her head, with smooth long black hair.
Even if the black pupils revealed in the mask had no emotional fluctuations, one could see the gentleness itself.
The Third Hokage wrote a full page of paper with vigorous strokes and folded it.
"Qin, deliver the letter to the new leader of the Grass Ninja Village."
Qin stood up respectfully, took the letter with both hands, put it carefully into her bosom, and immediately performed the Body Flicker Technique, disappearing from the room.
"Old man, was that female ninja from Anbu just now from the Uchiha clan?"
Tsunade asked only after the female ninja disappeared.
The Third Hokage looked emotional:
"You should have also heard about what happened in the Stone Village a few days ago."
Tsunade nodded knowingly.
The Stone Village Jinchūriki lost control, and they thought it was a good deed done by Uchiha people.
Konoha refused to admit it, so they went to war with the Stone Village.
This matter had long spread to every place in the Land of Fire.
Konoha went to war with the Stone Village because of this, so Uchiha naturally couldn't have no compromise.
The Uchiha female ninja just now was probably one of the compromise prices of the Uchiha clan.
Sending the younger generation of their clan to work under the Hokage.
Thinking of these dirty political compromises, a look of boredom immediately appeared on Tsunade's exquisite face.
She stood up and walked out the door, saying as she walked:
"Send someone to find me if there's anything. I even thought the war had already started and rushed back to the village overnight."
Watching Tsunade's departing figure, the Third Hokage looked somewhat relieved.
Although due to some past events.
Tsunade had a lot of opinions about the village and usually didn't stay in the village.
But approaching the war, she would still actively rush back to share the worries for the village.
This was the good disciple he cultivated.
At this time, in another underground building.
Danzo opened the letter in his hand and read it quickly. After reading it, he snorted coldly:
"Why be so polite to the leader of a small ninja village? This will only make others think Konoha is easy to bully."
"These guys from small ninja villages have always feared power but not virtue. Speaking nicely will only make them more arrogant!"
"But since this woman is likely a survivor of the Uzumaki clan, she must be used well."
"Qin, you find a chance directly to control Yoshina with the Three Tomoe Sharingan and make her obedient."
"Although the Grass Ninja Village is extremely weak, with less than a thousand ninjas, if used at the right time, it can also play a significant role."
The female ninja with long straight black hair nodded slowly.
Because of Rasa's actions in the Stone Village.
The butterfly began to flap its wings, and the butterfly effect also began to occur in Konoha.
Things that didn't happen in the original work were starting to happen now.
A large number of young talents from Uchiha joined Anbu and Root as a price for political compromise.
Among them, there were naturally double agents.
Just like Sai and Yamato in the original work, serving under the Hokage and also working for Danzo.
"Wait, this new leader of the Grass Ninja Village, Yoshina, actually possesses the ability to control others' actions."
"This doesn't seem like an ability possessed by the Uzumaki clan. Maybe it's some undiscovered precious Kekkei Genkai. You also have to find out whether it is activated by dojutsu or some other way."
Speaking of this, Danzo's only revealed eye flashed with traces of greed.
Qin's eyes flickered a few times, and she nodded slowly.
Danzo looked at Qin's receding figure, trying hard to suppress the greed in his heart. Now was not the time to fall out with Uchiha.
Orochimaru's research was not mature yet.
And Hiruzen hadn't made up his mind at all.
Just wait a few more years, until the new generation of Uchiha takes power, the relationship with Konoha will definitely deteriorate.
Hiruzen would also make up his mind because of this. At that time, he would get a large number of Sharingan!
