Extra 1: If there was Ugetsu during the creation period (Part 7)
“How did you do that?!”
Collaborators who couldn’t wait until the first day rushed into the room at midnight.
"Although we are partners, don't you think it is rude to suddenly run into a lady's bedroom in the middle of the night?"
Yu Yue, whose hair was still dripping with water, looked at the visitor, whose expression was a mixture of confusion and excitement, and said unhappily.
"I'm so sorry."
If it was the Sannin or a senior employee - someone familiar like Kakashi, they would definitely say something like "You don't look like a lady at all".
But the person standing here at this moment was someone who was willing to pull Yu Yue from another time and space in order to achieve his goal, so naturally he was not close to this extent.
Of course, they are not the type to make such jokes.
"It's just that we really want to know, is it true?"
Senju Hashirama couldn't wait to speak.
"It's just that there are ninjas coming to give gifts as a gesture of friendship."
Although he had seen the other world in his dreams, he was excited and incredulous that it could happen so easily in this world.
"Of course it's true."
Yu Yue raised her hand and pointed to the side as she spoke.
"The stuff is still in the warehouse."
"Let me ask you one question. You are not tempted by the money and want to take it away, are you?"
"No, no, no, how could that be!"
Senju Hashirama quickly waved his hands.
"Those were received by Miss Yu Yue. You can do whatever you want with them." If paying money could make dreams come true, he could even give her more.
Or she would go find whatever she wanted.
Even if he had to search the entire world for this, Hashirama Senju didn't mind.
He paused, and seemed to finally calm down a little.
"I'm just curious about how Miss Yu Yue did it. After all, we didn't do anything, but those people came to show their goodwill..."
No matter how hard I try, I just can’t figure it out!
If it were really that simple, why would they have been killing each other for so many years?
"How can you say that we did nothing? We built the house and delivered the most important news."
That’s what they said, but they just built a house and spread some rumors. How could this be the result?
The practical ninjas really couldn't understand the rumors.
How could something that is intangible and not correct lead to this result?
You have to know that in the past, even if they could defeat a ninja clan, it would be difficult for that ninja clan to come up to them on their own initiative, or even to show goodwill.
"this……"
"Ms. Ugetsu, please don't walk around without drying your hair."
As soon as Yu Yue opened her mouth, Uchiha Shisui walked in holding a towel. He stood behind Yu Yue very naturally and used the towel to wipe her hair, which was still dripping with water. He was careful and gentle, taking care of every corner.
The movement was extremely skillful, as if it had been done thousands of times before.
The person receiving his service also had a natural and calm expression.
It was like the most normal thing at the time.
——It seemed that I was the abnormal one because I was shocked by this scene.
But except for Hashirama Senju who was determined to know the answer, the other three knew that this was not the case.
At least for a moment, Senju Tobirama almost forgot about the important matter.
After all, that's Uchiha!
He opened the kaleidoscope! Look at what he is doing now?
This is beyond the work of an ordinary assistant and is more like "serving", right?
His gaze also slid to the other two Uchiha's faces for a moment, wondering what expressions they had when they saw an Uchiha with a Mangekyō do such a thing.
But they were all experienced warriors, and even if they were shocked, it only lasted for a moment, so Senju Tobirama could not see any reactions from the other two Uchiha.
But whether or not they have wavered... only the person involved knows.
Uchiha Shisui, who was the focus of attention, was still doing his job skillfully - if they lived in a world where hair care could be done with the new product hair dryer.
But in the Warring States Period, the only primitive method was to wipe it with a towel.
"It will do its job anyway if you leave it alone."
Yu Yue said this, but her voice became a little weaker amidst Uchiha Shisui's silent smile, and it was obvious that she lacked confidence.
"Ahem, let's get back to business."
Yu Yue chose to change the subject.
"In fact, I have found the pain points of some people in the ninja industry."
In the ninja industry, although everyone seems to be very strong and the hatred between them is very strong,
They will continue to interact with each other until death.
But in fact, if the scope is broadened, there will not be so many families that have irreconcilable feuds with each other.
Plus, in the ninja world, the strong are respected.
If a ninja is killed during a mission simply because he is not strong enough, most of the time the only ones who are truly sad about it are his direct blood relatives.
——In other words, people like the Senju and Uchiha who really seem unable to break the cycle of hatred are actually a minority.
Therefore, the ninja village appears in the world where Ugetsu lives.
After all, if the ninjas were really hostile to each other and would never stop fighting, there is a high probability that they would have died in internal fighting before forming a ninja village.
In fact, for these ninjas, the continuation of the family is the most important and most worrying issue compared to personal hatred.
What Yu Yue did at this time was to artificially create an "industry crisis" for them.
"To you it's just gossip, but to them it's big news, a matter of life and death."
"The Uchiha and Senju are going to cooperate! They are going to monopolize the market! Life will be difficult for others... I guess that's it."
"Then how can you be sure that they will come to show their good will instead of choosing to unite to fight against us?"
“Well.”
Yu Yue smiled.
"Who will take the lead then?"
"An alliance or an organization cannot be established on a whim - even if it is established in a muddled way, who will take the lead, who will make the decision, and convince others?"
"If there is no one who can make the final decision, then who will decide whether to negotiate or fight? If we can't even decide on the initial policy, it will be impossible to accomplish anything later, right?"
Ugetsu shrugged while keeping the posture of having his hair wiped.
"And as far as I know, there aren't many ninja clans that can be compared to the Senju and Uchiha."
——Not just a few, it should be said that there are only three or two in total.
And they are scattered far away...
"I see."
"You can't fight back, so you choose to show your friendship to avoid the worst-case scenario...right?"
The four of them were not stupid, and they quickly grasped the key point after turning the corner.
"That's right, as the saying goes, 'If you can't beat them, join them'!"
——Although I don’t remember such a saying, it is indeed very appropriate for the current situation.
It’s over.
"And this house gives them the opportunity to 'join in'."
"If it's in the Uchiha or Senju clan's territory, then even if they want to, I'm afraid it's inconvenient or they don't dare to come alone, right?"
"On the other hand, if it is placed in the town, it means that it is not an absolute secret between the two tribes, and there is still a chance...right?"
Uchiha Izuna raised his hand to his lips and thought.
After all, the clan's land is the most important "base camp" of the ninja clan. For the safety of the clan's land, they may do anything.
Therefore, for the ninjas, exploring the clan territory of another ninja clan is itself an offensive act.
But on the other hand, if it is just a place like a contact point, the risk factor will be reduced.
In other words, setting up such a place means that "we can talk"... something like that.
"That's right."
Ugetsu nodded approvingly.
——Otherwise, why does she like to use Uchiha?
My brain works so fast.
Although they can easily reach a dead end.
But the problem is not big and it can be solved after all.
Although I still had countless questions in my mind, it was already very late and it would be rude to continue disturbing him.
The four of them had no choice but to say goodbye first.
Anyway, people are here, so with subsequent developments... they will always know the answers to these questions.
The four people left, but the room did not become quiet late at night.
"Although Ms. Yu Yue explained a lot, the content should not be that simple."
It is true that crisis can motivate people to take action, but it can make people take such certain actions... Uchiha Shisui does not think that it is just as simple as the 'industry pressure' on the surface.
"Of course."
Yu Yue leaned back and her head hit the chest of the man behind her.
"How can it be that simple?"
"Sure enough, can you please teach me, Miss Yu Yue?"
Uchiha Shisui asked sincerely.
"Originally it's not possible...but who made you my Shisui?"
Yu Yue kept looking up at the other person and blinked.
"First, let's start with the house."
The 'house' that Ugetsu and Senju Hashirama wanted was not just a simple place to live.
It is a key to complete this plan.
Tool'.
The purpose is to allow people to have a way to go when they move.
It's like you want to renovate your house, but if you don't even know where to find designers and decorators, how can you even start?
Therefore, in addition to being able to "recognize that it is Hashirama Senju's Wood Release", the location of this house cannot be too remote, and of course it cannot be too close to the city center.
And it also has to achieve the effect of 'requiring people to make a little effort to lock on'.
After all, if it can be found easily, people will inevitably become suspicious.
Then, thoughts like: 'It's too easy to find it - would the Senju and Uchiha really make such a mistake? ' would arise.
Therefore, it is very important to maintain a certain sense of mystery.
Only when people have gone through a lot of hardship and effort to find you will they pay special attention to it.
In this way, even though this is just a silent house, it can convey quite a lot of information to those people who have worked hard to find it.
As for how those people interpret the information on this house...that's a matter of opinion.
And since people have already preconceived a cause and effect for their own identities and actions, Yu Yue's job becomes even simpler.
It's enough for her not to deny it.
The rather ambiguous expression of "not denying" not only leaves a lot of room for others to imagine, but also leaves a lot of room for maneuver for oneself.
“…That’s probably it.”
After all, he was Shisui, so Ugetsu explained it carefully.
It's a psychological warfare though...but Shisui's words are understandable.
"So the key is 'what they believe' rather than the actual truth, right?"
Uchiha Shisui did not disappoint Ugetsu's expectations and figured out the key.
"That's right - after all, humans always take themselves for granted and scare themselves."
In the face of a crisis, no matter what the actual truth is, people tend to only believe the news they think is correct.
Especially when people really feel that there is something wrong with this matter, or that this matter may endanger their own safety.
That kind of thought and imagination can really fly into outer space.
Not to mention the existing clues, even some things that seem unrelated but seem to be related will make people sigh "it's terrifying when you think about it carefully."
Everyone will speculate and supplement based on the existing conditions - until the logic of the matter is smooth and consistent with people's (their own) cognition.
Once this situation occurs, even if someone later reveals the truth, it will be difficult for others to believe the other party's explanation.
Yu Yue stretched and made a final summary:
"So, never underestimate the power of 'public opinion' and 'people's hearts'."!
