"Lord Jin, thank you!"
Seeing everyone leave, Rin Nohara breathed a sigh of relief, then solemnly expressed her gratitude.
In response,
Uchiha Jin simply waved his hand: "It was actually just a coincidence. After all, your strength when you sacrificed yourself wasn't high, so it didn't require too great a price. Otherwise, the leader of the Akatsuki Organization wouldn't have agreed so easily."
"And to be honest, I also have a bit of a selfish motive. Due to the special circumstances of the Village now, I need those Edo Tensei Strongn to be more proactive."
"Although everyone currently seems willing to work for the Village, this situation is actually not very stable. I can see that everyone actually wants to return to the Pure Land as soon as possible, and for a group of dead people, I really have no way to win them over."
"This Rinnegan having revival abilities just gave a possibility to win everyone over!"
Uchiha Jin spoke eloquently.
He didn't over-package his righteousness, choosing to be honest with Rin Nohara.
Upon hearing these words, Rin Nohara's mood was actually a bit low, but she quickly recovered: "Wouldn't doing this seem a bit too utilitarian? Shouldn't everyone talk more about the Will of Fire?"
Yes!
Although Rin Nohara had lived for a while in her Edo Tensei state and was very satisfied with all aspects of the current Village, she still felt a bit uncomfortable with Uchiha Jin's overly utilitarian remarks.
In response,
Uchiha Jin was not disappointed. Clearly, he knew very well that Rin Nohara was, after all, a person from Hiruzen Sarutobi's era.
At that ti, the entire Konoha emphasized dedication to the Village, and would absolutely not talk about benefits or anything like that, as if talking about benefits was sothing to be deeply ashad of.
And why was Rin Nohara able to beco Minato Namikaze's disciple?
Besides her good relationship with Kakashi and Obito, it also had a lot to do with her strong Will of Fire. Otherwise, a Civilian like her wouldn't have been able to get into the Hokage's core faction.
She was too deeply influenced by the Will of Fire, and things related to ideology couldn't be changed in a short ti.
"Rin, you're mistaken!"
"New Konoha doesn't care about the Will of Fire; instead, it values fairness, justice, and openness!"
"If soone is asked to make a sacrifice, they must be given corresponding benefits. The principle is that effort and reward should be proportional."
"Why did so many ssed-up things happen in the Old Konoha? To put it bluntly, wasn't it because Hiruzen Sarutobi controlled the definition of the Will of Fire, and then used his power for personal gain to greatly benefit the Sarutobi Clan?"
"So I don't play those empty gas. If I want people to work for , I will definitely give them benefits."
Uchiha Jin's tone was calm.
These were truly his heartfelt words. Whether it was his trusted subordinates or ordinary people, even enemies, he was willing to offer benefits.
People can talk about friendship and ideals, but interests will always be the core issue.
Only by clearly distributing interests as a foundation, will talking about sentint and ideals be truly convincing.
To put it simply,
sentint and ideals are the mansion, but interests are the true foundation.
Rin Nohara looked stunned.
However, after much thought, she had to admit that Uchiha Jin was right. The original Will of Fire was indeed a good thing, but it had long been corrupted by Hiruzen Sarutobi. It was just that back then, due to Hiruzen Sarutobi's power, everyone rely pretended it didn't exist on the surface.
Why did everyone support Uchiha Jin back then? To put it bluntly, wasn't it because everyone was fed up with Hiruzen Sarutobi?
Since the Uchiha were taking the lead, and it seed there was a possibility of success, that's why countless Ninja Clans flocked to the Uchiha's banner once the Uchiha had gained a foothold and had only won twice against the Old Konoha High Command.
To put it simply,
everyone wasn't stupid; they all had a scale in their hearts.
Conversely,
although the current New Konoha doesn't clamor about the Will of Fire, precisely because Uchiha Jin acts fairly and justly, everyone is now naturally willing to die for New Konoha.
"Lord Jin, I understand!"
"What you said indeed makes sense. The Village's credibility has been ruined by Hiruzen Sarutobi. Now, even if we genuinely raise the banner of the Will of Fire, it would be useless; on the contrary, it would only make everyone more wary and cautious."
"Instead, the fairness you've established, Lord Jin, is sothing everyone is very satisfied with."
"After all, you get what you put in."
Rin Nohara sighed softly.
Honestly, she felt truly helpless in her heart. After all, in a sense, she still quite liked the old atmosphere, where everyone gathered under the banner of the 'Will of Fire,' willingly giving everything for the Village.
Although she now knew it was fake, and she herself had been completely deceived back then, she truly hoped that the Village could genuinely possess the Will of Fire in the future.
Not the kind corrupted by Hiruzen Sarutobi, but a true, genuine Will of Fire!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask, "Lord Jin, is the Will of Fire really possible?"
"Impossible." Uchiha Jin was a bit startled, but still shook his head directly: "Very, very difficult!"
"At least in my opinion, we won't be able to achieve it in our lifeti."
"Because everyone has selfish motives, at most, it's just a matter of degree."
"Take yourself, Rin, as an example. Imagine if you have your own child in the future. Because you are a dical Ninja and the Fourth Hokage's disciple, you can naturally provide a very good living environnt for your child."
"You can let your child co into contact with Ninjutsu before entering the Ninja Academy, undergo various targeted trainings in advance, and even take dicinal baths and so on to lay a foundation for your child..."
"Under these circumstances, as soon as your child enters the Ninja Academy, they will naturally be far ahead of Civilian children."
"So—Rin!"
"Are you willing to give up all of this, to truly let your child stand on the sa starting line as others?"
Uchiha Jin was quite direct.
If it were anyone else, unless he could gain benefits, he wouldn't be interested in arguing.
Rin Nohara, however, was different!
Although he hadn't officially established a romantic relationship with Rin Nohara yet, he had actually long regarded her as his woman, and he also believed that Rin Nohara was actually quite similar to him; it was just that at this stage, they were missing a suitable opportunity to break through that barrier.
Therefore,
since Rin Nohara wanted to chat with him, he didn't mind explaining things to her.
anwhile,
after hearing Uchiha Jin's words, Rin Nohara couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
