Okami suddenly said after a long silence.
"It's not a problem for me to succeed the fifth generation Naruto, but you must help me manage the Dark Group!”
Ye Ying was slightly startled. Dark Group?
They were Naruto's direct troops.
"Are you kidding me? Do you want to be a commander without an army?”
Okami shook his head seriously.
" I'm not joking. The Dark Group is under Naruto's direct command, but you're different. You're my husband, Okami, and the candidate for Naruto's position. You're also the person who holds the real power in Muye's hands. The Dark Group can only play its true role in your hands, and I can also do other trivial things.”
Ye Ying shook his head.
"I've already stepped down from the position of the Elder Group. If I were to take over the Dark Group again, it would inevitably attract the dissatisfaction of Men Yan and Little Chun. Even Yuan Fei would have opinions. This would be detrimental to Muye's stable development.”
Okami shouted.
"I don't care about them. If you want me to be Naruto, fine, but you, Ye Ying, have to help me manage the Dark Group. Otherwise, there's no need to talk about it!”
Ye Ying curled his lips into a smile when he saw Okami's unyielding attitude.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Of course."
"Aren't you afraid that I'll become the second team trove?”
"You won't."
"There's nothing wrong with being in the Dark Group. Fighting is dark, and once I take over the Dark Group, it might be just as dark.”
"I'm willing!"
"Alright then. Since you're so insistent, I'll accept it.”
"Eh? You can't have been waiting for me to say this, right?”
Ye Ying smiled faintly.
"What do you think?"
Okami sat down in a huff.
No one could figure out what Ye Ying was thinking.
Every time someone thought that they had the upper hand, they would be surprised to find that it was just a net that Ye Ying had prepared for them.
"You bastard, did you already expect that I would be the fifth Naruto? So you joined the Elder Committee, got rid of the group treasury, then dismissed the Elder Committee, and even cleaned up the conflicts between the few big families, all to wait for me to return, right?!”
Ye Ying didn't say anything. He just gently shook Naruto in his swaddling clothes.
Tsunei suddenly felt that she was silly, but she was very happy.
It felt good to be remembered by someone who had done so much for him.
"Ye Ying, can't you make Naruto yourself?”
Ye Ying replied calmly.
"I'm not suitable. I'm not that broad-minded. People like me are more suitable for expanding our territory and killing everything.”
"Then why does it have to be me?"
"Because only when you become Naruto can I truly do what I want without any scruples.”
"You bastard, what do you want to do?”
" Although the Nine-Tailed Incident has happened, the hidden problems within Muye have basically been wiped out. To outsiders, this is the time when Muye is at his weakest, but in reality, this is the beginning of Muye's revival.”
"Hiss, are you thinking of unifying the entire Ninja Realm?”
Ye Ying glanced at the stunned Okami and chuckled.
"Unify Ninja Realm? " I'm not interested. Instead of exhausting the village's resources to fight such a huge war, I might as well nurture people who can shock the entire Ninja Realm and make them submit to me on their own.”
"Actually, aren't you..."
"After all, I've been hiding for more than 20 years. Many people and many things have already been forgotten by others. Moreover, I don't want to work myself to death alone. You understand that I'm actually quite lazy.”
"Whatever you say. I'm taking the oath of office tomorrow.”
"I think you'd better communicate with Yuan Fei first.”
"Hmm? Why?"
Facing Okami's confusion, Ye Ying explained.
" Yuan Fei is still the third generation Huoying after all. Although he retired, the influence and clan power he actually possesses is not the slightest bit weak. Hence, obtaining his support is very necessary.”
"You care?"
" I don't care, but Yuan Fei is my fellow disciple after all and is also your teacher. He has paid for Muye for so many years. Although he didn't make any great contributions, he didn't make any major mistakes either. There's nothing wrong with taking care of his face.”
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
The person did not need to be mentioned. A knock sounded on the door. Yuan Fei actually came already.
When he saw that Ye Ying was around, although Yuan Fei was surprised, he did not find it strange.
"Looks like I came at the wrong time.”
Ye Ying rolled his eyes at Yuan Fei who had a strange smile on his face.
"Since you're already here, there's something I want to tell you.”
"Oh? What is it?"
After Yuan Fei sat properly, Gang Shou told Yuan Fei about his arrangements for the Dark Group.
Yuan Fei was stunned for quite a while. He looked at Tsunami and then looked at the indifferent looking Ye Ying. He immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Men Yan and Xiao Chun will probably hate you for the rest of their lives.”
Ye Ying replied nonchalantly.
"It's okay. They'll die earlier than me anyway. Their lives aren't long.”
“...”
Yuan Fei was helpless to the extreme.
All of them were his old friends, but no matter what, Ye Ying's arrangement was not wrong for the sake of the village.
"Then, let's do it. I support you.”
"I knew you would support me."
"You're always like this, you haven't changed at all. I'm old, maybe you can inject new vitality into Mu Ye.”
Okami glanced at Yuan Fei. After hesitating for a moment, he still spoke of Ye Ying's intention to recall Orochimaru.
After all, they were all Yuan Fei's disciples.
"What is it? Orochimaru? No, this is definitely not possible!"
Yuan Fei jumped in fright. He never would have thought that Ye Ying would actually want to summon Orochimaru back.
If Orochimaru were to cause any trouble after he returned, things would get out of hand.
Seeing Ye Ying's dissatisfaction, Okami lowered his head in embarrassment.
Ye Ying did not blame Okami for acting on his own accord. It was just that it was still too early to mention the Orochimaru matter to Yuan Fei now.
But since he had already said it, there was nothing to hide.
" Yuan Fei, you're about to step down. There are some things that you better not get too involved in. I know what I'm doing with Orochimaru's matter.”
" No, Ye Ying, you don't understand Orochimaru. What you're doing will only bring greater danger to the village. As the third generation Naruto, I will never allow Orochimaru to return!”
Ye Ying sneered.
"You won't allow it? You understand? Then do you know anything about the group trove? You've been Naruto for so many years. Has the village grown stronger or declined?”
"I..."
"Since you have chosen to retire, you should live your retirement life well. I don't mind you coming to play chess with me every day, but I will never allow you to participate in the affairs of the village again.”
He didn't expect Ye Ying's words to be so serious, so Tsunete was a little worried.
But she did not understand the friendship between Ye Ying and Yuan Fei.
Yuan Fei fell silent and smoked non-stop. Amidst the lingering smoke, Yuan Fei seemed to have aged another ten years all of a sudden.
"Phew, you're right. It's indeed time for me to completely retire.”
