Extra 1: If there was Ugetsuki during the creation period (XII)
Senju Tobirama almost wanted to throw everything away and fight with him regardless of the consequences.
Indeed, the information provided by Ms. Ugetsuki had given him quite a bit of information as a reference, allowing him to have a general idea of the situation of these ninjas.
However, it is still unknown what level of strength can be reached and whether the direction of expertise is real.
Some famous families can even use their names to know whether the other party has secret techniques or bloodline limits.
But there are even more things that we don’t know and don’t understand.
Those can basically only be guessed.
Plus there's the question of 'what kind of work do you want to do'... Ninjas don't have so many choices, a mission is a mission.
You have to weigh the abilities of these people, investigate the mission content and the risks that may be encountered at the mission site, and then align it with the "direction you want to pursue."
In addition, we had to make up some "false commissions" that Miss Yu Yue needed - in fact, they were not completely false, but the client became Miss Yu Yue, and the funds were also from the investment she had obtained.
This way, if something unexpected happens, you can cancel it . If the ninja is really reliable and can perform the task, you don't have to worry about the false commission causing the ninja to be unable to work and thus be exposed.
But even if it is a 'false commission', it has to be made to look real.
For example, if there is an exploration commission, they have to find places where there are suspected ruins or confirmed ruins in advance and send people there, so as not to let the ninjas who go there come back empty-handed.
The other tasks, whether it is escorting or clearing out bandits and robbers, are the same.
First we have to make sure that such a thing exists, and then devise a mission that cannot be wrongly assigned to the ninja.
This is a very troublesome and huge workload, especially since they cannot ask their tribe members to help them like they can with their own work...
In particular, this "commission" is not limited to the area they are familiar with, but should be expanded to all parts of the country.
Plus a myriad of other problems...
If it wasn't him who came, there would be no chance of getting the job done.
However, Uchiha Madara continued to stare at him as if he had no idea of his hard work.
Senju Tobirama's lips moved several times, but in the end, he only said one sentence:
"Bring it over tomorrow."
"Tomorrow is too slow..."
"It's already the result of my overtime work to finish this much content tomorrow!"
Senju Tobirama was angry.
"Do you know how difficult this is?"
"No, you don't know. You only know how to urge her. Miss Yu Yue has never urged her!"
Senju Tobirama spoke angrily.
At the end, she glared at him hatefully and turned back into the house.
——So there was a reason why Yu Yue asked someone to convey the message even though she could have contacted him directly.
This kind of hateful job should be left to someone else.
And people are just so strange sometimes.
It is obvious that the task was assigned by the boss, but the pressure was given by Party A (the leader).
But the one who gets hated is often the one who conveys the message directly.
So, Uchiha Madara was recorded in the notebook by Senju Tobirama again.
Of course this is just a small episode.
On the other hand, Yu Yue was not idle either. Ninjas like Iwaki who filled in their desired career directions with impure motives were not isolated cases.
So after the tasks were distributed one by one, Yu Yue's temporary office became quite lively during the past two days.
In addition to the ninjas experiencing a workplace baptism that did not belong to this world, the handkerchief inventory here in Yu Yue was also rapidly emptied.
Tears, sweat and blood...
In short, Yu Yue simply took this opportunity to establish close ties with the cloth merchants in the city, selected the best suppliers from them, and established a long-term supply relationship at a very attractive price.
Handkerchiefs are inexpensive and practical.
Even if no one sheds blood and tears after a while, it can still be treated as a business... and welfare benefits can be distributed.
At that time, adding the entire logo or directly printing the words "Ninja Alliance" can also increase people's sense of belonging and honor.
——Think about those membership cards and gifts with various logos printed on them.
Isn’t the purpose to promote and increase a sense of belonging?
'We are all users of XXX, and we are different from others'
With this understanding, are you still worried that people will not be sticky?
Anyway, for now, the ninjas who left her office with handkerchiefs were still very satisfied.
In fact, those ninjas were more than satisfied.
They wish they could devote themselves to repaying the kindness of their mentor.
As the humble second party who will die if they don't live, ninjas have always been like a brick.
Being moved around by employers.
Internally, he was ordered around by the tribe's top leaders.
Those who can have a say must be elites.
Those who can participate in decision-making are either those with long experience or the elite among the elites.
There are very few people like Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha who can be so "willful" as to act as their own team leader.
Not to mention one or two years, it may not even come out in one or two generations.
Therefore, being 'respected' and 'given the right to choose' (although only in a small scope) like this is 'unique' to the vast majority of ninjas.
Especially since most of the ninjas sent out to spy were not the most important people in the clan, they felt this even more deeply.
Of course they still remember their mission, but if they want to gather intelligence, they have to gain people's trust first, right?
If you want to gain people's trust, you must first infiltrate the enemy.
What they are doing now is for this purpose!
Moreover, you can get money by taking tasks here, which is equivalent to saving money for the tribe...killing two birds with one stone, right?
It’s a win-win business, so it’s normal to delay a little and report later... right?
It's better to get more information later and report it later than to get no information at all and only be able to report some irrelevant content.
After figuring it out, the ninjas started working with peace of mind.
The thinking of ninjas is so straightforward.
Either you can't understand it or you don't accept it.
I accepted it reluctantly, but with my head down.
However, once they accept the new settings, they will be more active than anyone else.
I will just want to stick to it to the end, even if I hit a wall.
Even if the east wall, west wall and north wall were stacked together behind the south wall, they would definitely not retreat.
Ninja, what a strange and stubborn person.
Employers are of course very satisfied when they see that the work they commissioned is actually completed at a more favorable price and at a faster speed.
You can get commissions just by walking around the city. Isn't that much more convenient than going up mountains and down seas and valleys to look for commissions from the ninja clan?
What's more, in addition to more favorable prices, there are also thoughtful services and nice-speaking staff.
Of course they loved it.
Both the ninja and the employer were satisfied.
But for the ninjas...it's not the case .
They just felt that the ninjas they sent out were like meat.
Throwing a bun at a dog - it's gone and will never come back.
Everything was fine at the beginning. He would report his situation and the intelligence he had obtained from time to time.
So the ninjas knew about Hashirama Senju's house, and the Uchiha boy with the Sharingan (which Shisui showed himself) in the house, and they also knew that they seemed to be doing some secret activities, and that many businessmen and nobles had joined in.
And they seem to have prepared some tasks for the ninjas who come to register...
So far, everything is normal.
But when they say they've accepted the mission...
That would be like a kite with a broken string.
"hateful!"
A fist as big as a bowl slammed down on the table.
Everything on the table shook three times.
"This is outrageous! Even if we tried the mission there, it's too much to not get a single word back in a week."
"Maybe the mission is more troublesome."
The middle-aged man next to him was much calmer.
"It's already this time and you're still speaking for him?"
The burly man who had smashed the table earlier turned his head suddenly.
"Even if the mission is troublesome, it is not our family's mission. So what if we fail? Shouldn't the key be to get the intelligence first?"
He paced around the room in a rage.
His hands also shook as he spoke excitedly.
He was really annoyed.
This is the time when we need intelligence the most, but there is no movement from the other side.
"I know you're anxious, but have you ever thought about it?"
Another woman who had been silent all this time spoke up.
"If he fails on his mission, how will others view our family?"
"Then follow us..."
"Don't forget, that's the Senju and Uchiha's territory. Do you think if they want to investigate, they won't find us?"
"this……"
"Besides, everyone else was able to do it, but our people failed... What do you think others will think of us?"
Stop talking, calm down completely.
No matter which era, one of the things that ninjas care about most is definitely "comparison with others."
Between ninjas and ninjas, between ninja villages and ninja villages.
Although there is no clear ranking yet, ninjas or ninja clans of similar level always
will be compared.
The most classic ones are Senju and Uchiha, as well as Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.
...It can probably be said to be the Ninjago world version of 'peer comparison anxiety'.
When this was mentioned, the ninja who had a hot temper at first fell silent.
The failure of a mission is not terrible; what is terrible is the success of others.
If this gets out, their entire family will have a hard time.
“…What should we do then?”
He finally sat back in his original seat.
"We can only send more people to investigate."
If one isn’t enough, try two. If two aren’t enough, try three or four.
With so many people, there will always be someone who can come back to report.
——He just didn’t believe that there were really so many commissions available for people to do!
Are you kidding? The number of commissions that their clan can get is limited!
Then, the ninja clan sent more people.
Of course, in order to remain secretive, they didn't send many people at once.
Instead, they entered one at a time, inconspicuously, following the others who had run away to seek refuge or to test the waters, and entered in different batches.
Yes, yes, they are all from the same ninja clan.
But two or three people among dozens of people are not very conspicuous!
You see, most of the small ninja tribes have gone there. In comparison, we are really not many.
These newly assigned ninjas reported with the others, completed the questionnaire, and then waited to be assigned work.
This should be fine now.
The elders of the ninja clan felt a little relieved after receiving the news that the last ninja sent out had successfully completed the "registration process".
Then they waited and waited... until all the flowers wilted.
The two people standing in the clan land, looking far in the direction where they left were silent for a long time, and finally someone spoke first.
"I say, what on earth are they..."
"I don't know either."
"Will you really come back?"
"I don't know even if you tell me!"
