Chapter 59 Chapter 59 Sect Meeting
The originally empty hall now had two rows of tables on both sides. Besides a few familiar faces, dozens of people were sitting cross-legged nervously on the cushions beside the tables, not knowing why they were called here.
"Don't be nervous." Ali casually sat cross-legged on a raised platform in front of the hall, looking at the crowd below, and chuckled softly:
"As the earliest group of management members of the sect, we are here today to discuss the sect's current situation, decide on its future actions, and discuss future developments. This way, we won't leave you aimless and following us around like headless chickens."
"As the sect's senior leaders, you should also be aware of the most basic situation of our sect right now, including personnel distribution, cultivation status, capital flow, and the inheritance of Taoism."
Ali looked at the Da Niu and the others sitting on the right and asked, "What do you think is lacking in the current operation of the sect? What can be improved?"
The big cows sitting on the right looked at each other.
Shui Cang nodded to Ali first and reported the current situation. "The sect is currently developing well. A total of 867 disciples have officially joined the sect. The villagers who came here yesterday, plus those who haven't passed the formal disciple assessment yet, total 1,701 people."
"The addition of these villagers has greatly alleviated the sect's food and clothing problems."
Shui Cang explained to Ali:
"Before, we had to regularly stop by some large villages to buy supplies to meet our daily needs. As for food, except for those reserve members who hadn't yet entered the sect, most of the disciples relied on fasting pills."
"As for now, from yesterday's statistics, we can see that the living system within the mountain village is very complete. Relying on this mountain village is enough for us to be self-sufficient."
Shennong, standing by, pointed out a systemic problem within the sect: "But in this case, our internal trading system needs to be improved."
"Those villagers still use currency more often, while we now use the points distributed to us. However, since we use their supplies, we naturally have to give them corresponding compensation."
Shui Cang nodded in agreement: "Yes, there is also the issue of the sect's internal disciples entering and leaving. Although it is not obvious now, but when Village Chief He came up yesterday, he asked me if I could continue to do business in the future."
A Cui on the side listened attentively and agreed from time to time.
"Trade?" Ali pondered, and she suddenly remembered the technology department and the issue of laying out in the ninja world that she had considered before.
The research can indeed be handed over to Shennong, so the following transaction layout, a caravan that has had long-term cooperation with the surrounding ninja villages, should not easily arouse the vigilance of the surrounding ninja villages.
She really felt like she had been struck by an unexpected surprise...
"Okay, then invite Mr. He over and we'll discuss the sect's internal transactions and outing-related issues in detail." Ali nodded and approved the proposal.
Daniel scratched his head, a little embarrassed to speak, and reported on the recent situation:
"As for training, there are currently 86 disciples who have entered the Qi training stage, and there are about 200 disciples who are about to enter the Qi training stage. This number is still rising. The one with the highest level of training is Obito, who has already reached the tenth level of Qi training. The next four are us, and the rest are all at the first level of Qi training."
Now he is also the lowest among the four people in the disciple management. Since he came out of the top-grade spiritual vein last time, perhaps it was the first time he stepped into the position of Qi training and was blessed with the skills that could improve his qualifications. All four of them have made very obvious improvements.
His gold attribute, Shuicang's ice attribute, and Shennong's earth yin attribute have all officially entered the heavenly level from qualifications close to the heavenly level. Shennong's physique has also awakened, and Atrela's fire attribute has also leaped from 37 directly to 61.
But even though they were all at the Heavenly Rank, he was the worst among the four of them. He practiced almost day and night before he could barely be on the same level as the other three.
Shennong and Shuicang had already reached the seventh level of Qi training. Shuicang could break through at any time, and Ah Cui was also about to break through the seventh level barrier. However, as the eldest disciple, he had only just broken through the sixth level, and four of those levels were cultivated in the ultimate spiritual vein...
The difference in cultivation progress is quite significant.
Daniel suppressed the urgency in his heart and continued to report the current situation: "As for the choices of mental methods, most of them use basic breathing to enter Qi training. Currently, most of the disciples in the Qi training stage are trying to reach the third level of the Longevity Ladder and want to switch to a higher mental method before continuing."
Shui Cang also added at the right time: "As menial disciples, their path to advancement is not clear, and they currently do not have higher authority to choose better mental methods, so their progress after entering Qi training is relatively slow."
"The standards for these disciples' advancement assessments also need to be more clearly defined."
Ali nodded. She had been suddenly teleported to the world of spells and had not been able to determine the standards for advancement in time.
According to her previous idea, the four stages of advancement from menial servant to core disciple can be carried out in a streamlined manner. In addition to cultivation, subsequent education assessments will also account for a certain proportion.
The subsequent positions of direct disciples, elites, and chiefs will depend on the affinity between the elders and disciples developed in the sect.
"We'll discuss this in detail later." Ali nodded. She and Madara had already considered this aspect yesterday.
"What's the situation like outside during the days I've been away?"
Shui Cang frowned slightly and said, "Orochimaru of Konoha Village left Konoha a month ago. Large-scale friction has begun on the borders of the Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, and Konoha, but the Land of Water hasn't heard any news."
"The situation in the ninja world is becoming increasingly intense. Our information channels are limited, and most of the information we can obtain has already spread throughout the ninja world..."
Ali's eyes lit up: "Orochimaru defected?"
Although it was called running away, it was more of a means for Konoha to save its reputation. Everyone knew that running away at such a critical moment was a blatant betrayal of the village.
Obito, who had been silent, snorted softly, "Not only did you defect, but Konoha actually put the blame directly on you."
"Wuwei of the Land of Grass can be considered a special case, but Orochimaru is the backbone of Konoha, a true Kage-level powerhouse."
"Hokage's disciple, Konoha's Three Ninjas, Konoha's Cold Lord Orochimaru, there are so many labels about Konoha, and he defected without hesitation. Apart from his previous contact with you, Konoha can't find the real reason why Orochimaru left."
"After hearing the news, Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninjas, almost retreated from the front line of the Land of Lightning to chase Orochimaru, but he didn't dare to leave easily due to the situation."
"Now that the five great nations have learned of this news, they all regard you as a scourge and are extremely concerned about your information. Even the people like Da Niu who initially followed you have had their bounties increased."
“Even a simple piece of information can earn you a lot of money.”
"Besides, you better get ready."
Obito's tone was a bit gloating: "That guy Orochimaru also kidnapped a little Uchiha genius. The child thought you controlled his brother's soul and was trying every means to come to you. If Orochimaru brought the child here and didn't see his brother..."
Ali:???
"When did I control his brother's soul?" Ali's head was full of question marks, and then he saw Ban beside him and suddenly understood something.
Ali: ...
I guess it happened when we first faced off against the Konoha Iwagakure, right?
But where did they randomly assign this victim? They couldn't even identify the specific person?
"Are they imagining things a bit too much?" Ali was speechless.
"Can't you do it?" Obito snorted.
Ali was speechless.
As long as she knew the place where the other person died, she could really do it...
Shui Cang, who was standing by, looked at the interaction between Obito, who was wearing an orange mask, and Sister Ali with some surprise.
The other party has been on the Ladder of Immortality these days, how come he knows more than them?
He echoed:
"Yes, according to the news released by Konoha, the reason for Orochimaru's defection is unknown, but Konoha puts the blame on us, suspecting that it was Sister Ali's inducement. And the information they released also suspected that a middle-aged Uchiha in their village was controlled by Sister Ali."
"Last month, when we went out shopping, we also discovered that the bounty on us from the five major ninja villages had increased significantly..."
"If we plan to operate in the Ninja World next, in addition to the necessary disguise and information security, intelligence gathering must also be accelerated as soon as possible."
"As for the matter of that Uchiha child, our previous information channels were mostly from some wandering ninjas and civilians, so we haven't heard of it."
Shui Cang nodded to Obito: "Originally, I thought our sect hadn't considered this aspect of the problem yet, but I didn't expect Sister Ali to have already handed it over to Brother Obito. No wonder Brother Obito hasn't been back to the sect much. It must be very hard, right?"
Obito froze.
'What does this have to do with me?' he wanted to say.
But looking at Ali who was sitting on the platform right in front of him, and Uchiha Madara who was looking at him from the left front of Ali, he snorted, but finally did not refute.
White Zetsu belongs to Madara, and even without him, A Fei can still take on the role of the messenger. After all, he can get information directly from White Zetsu's message without even arousing Black Zetsu's vigilance.
But he is different. He hasn't been back for nearly two months. Black Zetsu might even think he is dead...
Ali glanced at Obito, who seemed to be daydreaming, at the bottom left.
Indeed, Obito is a very good candidate for the Intelligence Department. Based on her understanding of Obito, he has been reincarnated so many times in the illusion and has seen all the sufferings in the ninja world. The kindness deep in his bones will eventually prompt him to choose to stand on her side.
However, the White Zetsu's information network is still unstable, and it is a question whether these White Zetsu can stay in the future. Their sect naturally needs to establish its own intelligence system.
Now, there is no need to rush to arrange for him immediately...
As a result, in addition to the preparations for the education system, scientific research department and discipline hall that she had originally planned, the promotion system within the sect, the transaction and exchange system between the sect and the outside world, and external intelligence collection all need to be improved.
This is also the benefit of the management system.
A sense of relief rose in Ali's heart.
"You all did a great job." She said with some emotion.
"Not bad." Madara looked at the people below who had grown huge in just a few months. He had to admit that the kid had a pretty good vision.
"Well then, let's get to the point."
Ali and Madara looked at each other and their expressions became serious.
The two of them placed their system screens back to back in the center of the hall so that people sitting on both sides could see them.
The above is the sect's pilot plan that the two people have discussed for a long time.
From the sect's internal education system, the sect's new internal assessment system, the proposal for the sect's laws, the trial of the Discipline Hall, and the subsequent plan for the expansion of ninja forces...
At this moment, Ali, looking at the management members below with different expressions, couldn't help but feel a little emotional: "I know that you may have various reasons for joining the sect. Some seek power, seek revenge, and some simply seek a way out."
"Everyone gathered together because of the darkness in the ninja world, but they never knew what to do next. They just blindly followed the rules of the ninja world that the strong are respected, trying to make themselves stronger and stop themselves from getting hurt."
Ali looked at Shennong, whose expression was a little fluctuating below him: "I have told Shennong before that I want to bring peace to the ninja world, but even Shennong probably doesn't know how to implement it specifically, right?"
Shennong looked at the densely packed planning measures on the blue screen in front of him, and only he knew the trembling in his heart.
He had never felt so clearly that they were truly working towards 'peace', an almost impossible goal.
As Ali read, he watched the management below, who were staring at the words on the screen in amazement. He remained resolute in his heart, "The sect's purpose has always been only one, to bring lasting peace to this ninja world."
For the first time, she told these people the sect's clear goals:
"Eliminate the old system of the ninja world, eliminate the profession of ninja as a tool of killing, abolish the oppressive rule of the daimyo over the common people, unify all countries into a complete, people-led nation, contain all wars internally, and punish crimes with strict laws."
"I've told Elder Madara before that I hope to build an ideal country in the ninja world where the elderly can have a place to rely on and the young can be taken care of."
"And now, I will also tell you this. Next, we will first try out our plan from within the sect."
"I hope that as members of the management team, you can lead by example and work together to lead our sect towards our set goals!"
Except for Madara, almost everyone present felt a tingling sensation on their scalp.
Obito looked at Ali, who was sitting at the head of the table, and Madara, who was sitting in front of her. Seeing the resoluteness in their eyes, he remembered that he had been reincarnated dozens of times in the illusion, the most oppressed civilians at the bottom of society and the ninjas who thought they were their protectors...
This time, I won't make the same mistake again...
Shennong felt his mind went blank.
Eliminate ninjas, abolish daimyo, unify the entire ninja world, and establish a perfect country...
Isn't this an even crazier goal than their previous idea of revenge against the five major ninja villages?
And the look in Da Niu's eyes when he looked at Ali became brighter and brighter.
A world without war?
If it was the big sister, if it was her...
It will definitely be possible!
