Chapter 416, Current Situation of Sand Hidden Village
"After they settle down, we will have more time to develop. We, the Fire Nation, are located in the richest place with the richest resources and the best climate and geography in the ninja world. Our development speed is several times that of other countries. Peaceful The longer time goes by, the wider the gap between us and other countries will be. Later, we will be able to drag them to death just by relying on resources."
Among the five major countries, only the Kingdom of Thunder can compete with the Kingdom of Fire in terms of resources. Although the Kingdom of Wind is the largest, it does not have much arable land. It has to be harassed by sand and dust all day long. In times of difficulty, there is not even water.
Although the situation in the Kingdom of Earth is much stronger than that of the Kingdom of Wind, its strength is limited. The cultivated land is also very scarce, and there are still few beauties. They are all a group of passionate strong men who are very good at inheriting and expanding the population. disadvantage.
Although the Kingdom of Water has a lot of arable land, it has a small territory. An island surrounded by the sea cannot develop outward at all. They like internal fighting and cannot unite their forces into a rope, so they can only fight in the subsequent war. Small and medium-sized people fight against each other. Until there is no single hero who can suppress all ninja families, the Kingdom of Water will not be a concern.
Senju Tobirama thought for a while and couldn't help but nodded and said: "Well... it is indeed a good idea, then do it according to your wishes! Arrange people to send messages to other ninja villages and let them come Participate in your succession ceremony, but before that, the village still needs to hold a Jonin vote before it can be confirmed that you will be the Hokage."
"This is no problem at all!" Yamamoto Ryusei smiled confidently. Yamamoto Ryusei thought that his popularity in Konoha was not too bad, his strength was quite strong, and he handled government affairs well. With the addition of Senju Tobirama recommendation, then there would be no problem at all for him to pass the Jonin vote of confidence.
Sure enough, the news of Senju Tobirama's announcement of his abdication caused an uproar in Konoha...no...in the entire ninja world. The fact that the successor of Hokage is Yamamoto Ryusei did not exceed many people's expectations. Yamamoto Ryusei is the most suitable candidate to succeed Hokage in terms of strength and merit. Even the proud Uchiha clan has to admit this.
In the end, Yamamoto Ryuusei passed the Jonin vote of confidence with an approval rate of 80% and was confirmed as the third generation Hokage. Now he can only wait until the succession ceremony before Yamamoto Ryuusei can become the Hokage.
The Country of Wind, Sand Hidden Village!
The yellow sand in the sky is slowly drifting into the distance in the breeze. The temperature of the yellow desert is astonishingly high under the baking of the sun. If you go barefoot, a layer of skin may be baked in a few minutes, and the sand will be burned. Ninjas or civilians in the Hidden Village all wear clothes that are enough to completely cover their bodies, so that their skin is exposed to the sun as little as possible to avoid sunburn.
But even in such a hot desert, there are still some cool places, and the Wind Shadow Building is one of them. The second-generation Kazekage Samana is playing with some wooden puppets in the Kazekage building. Some of these puppets have six arms, and some are covered with knives. Some of them don't even have normal limbs. They are just made of a chest. These puppets were specially developed by Shamen to solve the shortage of sand ninjas.
With these puppets, both the number and survivability of sand ninjas have been greatly improved. They no longer need to fight hand-to-hand during battles. However, the only drawback of the puppet technique is that it is extremely expensive. Now only sand ninjas can do it. There are some ninjutsu in the village that only rich people can afford.
clap clap...
A sound of heavy footsteps came from outside. A black-haired ninja pushed the door in from the door with a solemn expression. He quickly walked to the second generation Kazekage Samana, handed over the scroll and said: "Kazekage-sama! Mu! The news came from Ye that Ryuusei Yamamoto is going to inherit the position of Hokage, and he asked us to go and watch the ceremony."
"Oh?!" Sha Men put down the puppet, took the scroll, and looked at it. Then he asked the ninja in front of him without any expression: "Chen Sha, do you think we should go?"
The ninja in front of him was Chensha, the future Third Kazekage and the successor of Magnetune. Chensha was silent for a while and said: "We should go. If we don't go, if the other people from the Ninja Village go, they will have reached some kind of goal in Konoha." Alliance, that would be extremely detrimental to our Sunagakure Village."
"However, even if we want to go, we can't let you go, Kazekage-sama, as the letter says. If Konoha doesn't respect ninja and turns against us and surrounds us, we really won't be able to escape from Konoha, so Kazekage-sama , let me go for Sunagakure Village!"
"There is no rush for the candidate at the moment." Shamen waved his hand and said: "Konoha will not do anything shameless, but we have to guard against going deep into other people's hinterland. By the way, Chensha, that ninjutsu you developed was how's it going?"
"It's almost done!" Chensha said with a somewhat pleased and proud expression: "My ninjutsu has been almost developed. Now it has the power, but it's just a matter of control. As long as the control is satisfactory, I can solve the problem of Shan Yuan by then. Dragon Star is also a matter of a flip of a switch."
"Don't be so careless!" Samana scolded Chensha and said: "Sanmoto Ryusei is not an easy person to deal with. No matter how cautious you are with him, the most important thing for you now is to fully develop that ninjutsu first. I beg you to kill Sangen Ryusei, I just hope you can block him when Konoha attacks, that’s already very good.”
Chensha, who felt that he was being underestimated, couldn't help but curl his lips, and then said to Samana with some confusion: "Master Kazekage, will Konoha attack? I don't think Konoha is very aggressive. During the war, , they didn’t choose to continue attacking even though they had such a huge advantage. I think the possibility of them attacking is very small, and most of our Country of Wind is desert, so they won’t have much advantage to gain if they attack. On the contrary, it’s not cost-effective!”
"Hmph! This is not the idea of a qualified Kage!" Shamen snorted angrily, and immediately scolded Chensha: "You can't place your hopes on whether others are willing to attack, but you should always be prepared, regardless of whether they Whether we attack or not, we have to prepare for the worst."
"Also, although most of our Country of Wind is desert, it does not mean that our Kingdom of Wind is scarce in materials. After all, we are a big country. No matter how poor we are, we can still squeeze out some oil and water. And our Country of Wind can still squeeze out some oil and water. There are many mineral veins in the Kingdom, and those mines alone are huge strategic resources. No country will think that its own mines are too much. Especially the poor guys in the Kingdom of Earth. Once we are weak, they will definitely attack us. Come up and bite us."
Is the Earth Kingdom a bunch of poor people? So isn't our Sand Hidden Village even poorer? What should we call it? !
"Furthermore, do you think Konoha is not aggressive? If Konoha hadn't been besieged by the other three ninja villages, do you think Konoha, which has already attacked our Sunagakure Village, would not have destroyed us?! Hmph... they The reason we stopped back then was so that we could contain the other ninja villages so that they could not attack Konoha with all their strength. If not for this, Konoha would have swallowed us up long ago."
Samana sighed and said: "Konoha now is no longer the good Konoha that Senju Hashirama was before. Although Konoha at that time had the most powerful combat power in the ninja world, its temper was unexpectedly gentle. As long as you don't provoke him, he won't attack you. Later, after Senju Hashirama died, the war broke out. Senju Tobirama led Konoha to win the war, and at the same time released Konoha's wild nature. , now Konoha is not at peace in the border areas. There are often frictions in the border areas. "
"But... Senju Tobirama was deeply influenced by Senju Hashirama. Although he is tougher than his brother Senju Hashirama to the outside world, he still stays peacefully in the Land of Fire despite being so powerful, and treats us It’s still a good neighbor.”
"But Yamamoto Ryuusei is different. Yamamoto Ryuusei studied under Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama, and Uchiha Madara. He inherited Senju Hashirama's powerful strength, Senju Tobirama's wisdom, and Uchiha Madara’s domineering! If Konoha is in the hands of Yamamoto Ryuusei, Konoha will definitely be more aggressive than before, so Chensha, life in our Sunagakure Village will not be so easy in the future."
After hearing this, Chensha was silent for a while and then said: "Isn't there any solution? For example, assassinating Shan Yuan Ryuuxing?"
Shamon laughed angrily at Chensha's words, and then said speechlessly: "How can you kill their next Hokage in Konoha, which is heavily guarded and full of masters? And even if Ryuusei Yamamoto is not in Konoha, how can you kill him?" Have you ever beaten him? I don’t want his ‘antenna-cutting’ technique to fall on our Sunagakure Village and cause our Sunagakure Village to stage the tragedy of Kirigakure Village.”
Shamen patted Chensha on the shoulder and said: "You'd better develop your ninjutsu as soon as possible. Don't think about these little tricks. Only strength is the most important. Only your strength surpasses Shangen Ryuusei and Sunagakure. The village will truly not be suppressed by Konoha."
Chensha nodded to Shamon and said: "Master Kazekage, I understand! I will continue to develop ninjutsu."
Shamen looked at Chensha who hurriedly ran out and couldn't help but shook his head. Chensha was still too young, had too little experience, and had very simple ideas. Apparently, let Chensha go to the Land of Fire to attend the ceremony this time. He opened his eyes and gained insights. When he came back, he was arranged to take over the government affairs of Sunagakure Village and prepare for his future role as Kazekage.
Samana looked at the puppets around him and couldn't help but think of the time when he and Sangen Ryusei went to other ninja villages to play games. Part of the credit for the development of these puppets was also attributed to Yamamoto Ryusei. If those unkillable evil cultists had not been captured at that time, then The Samana would not think of developing puppetry to make up for the lack of numbers, but the evil god's followers were full of lies, claiming to be immortal, but wouldn't they still die in the end? However, being able to obtain so much precious data from that evil god's cult member is not in vain for the monks who have put so much effort into him.
But this is too useless. It seems that we have to run to catch a few. Damn it, we used too much force when we wiped out the Evil God Cult last time and eradicated all the Evil God Cult in the Kingdom of Wind. Now we can only run to other places. The state went to catch it. I hope that the evil cultists caught later can be more durable, preferably for a few more years.
