Konoha: Start with omniscience and omnipotence

Chapter 64 [064] Ninja Village and Daimyo

Clean up the bodies and traces of burning.

After all traces of the battle were eliminated from the battlefield, they returned to the trading company's convoy staying at the rear.

"Crunch, crunch."

Akimichi Choza had just killed someone, but he took out a bag of potato chips from his backpack without caring, chewed it, and asked casually: "Since we have dealt with Kusagakure who was disguised as a wandering ninja, what about

This mission should be considered safe, right?"

"uncertain."

Nara Shikaku carefully cleaned the dirt between his fingers with a wet handkerchief, and said calmly: "The internal operating logic of small countries is completely different from ours."

"Don't predict their actions based on Konoha's business procedures."

"Why? Is there anything different?"

Among the few people, only the uneducated Hinata Yuna mentioned something, and Choza and Haiichi also looked at Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku pondered and concluded: "If we in Konoha maintain operations through missions, intelligence, trading companies, and daimyo funds, then most of the small shinobi villages will be shabby."

"It's common for them to disguise themselves as wandering ninjas and come out to rob people like this."

"Normally, if they die, they will die."

"But, if this goal is related to their leap from the Minor Ninja Village to the Great Ninja Village."

"The ninjas of Kusagakure will most likely fight to the death."

At the end of the sentence, Nara Shikaku took a deep look at Aida Masaki in front of him.

Aida Masaki also smiled helplessly.

Now, he suffers only from his civilian status and the power of his spells.

You must know that Tianzhen Zhenxing is a powerful ninjutsu that even Sarutobi Hiruzen covets, and he, the developer, is a civilian ninja without any training.

The first one means that there is no force behind him, the second means that the technique itself is very likely to be learned by a normal genius ninja, and the third means that there is a huge reward behind this incident.

Is the bounty on Aida Masaki so high because he is really that strong?

This is not impossible.

But to outsiders, a 'skill' that is possible to learn and allows many people to transcend social classes is the real reason for his high bounty.

"If you say that, isn't Jiang Hui completely targeted?"

Hinata Yuna suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter.

"not completely."

Aida Masaki interrupted softly and explained: "The political situation in the small country is chaotic, and the interests of Kusanagi Village and the daimyo of Kusano Country are not exactly the same."

"And this time we are sending these tributes in order to, in the name of a trading company, open up channels to the Daimyo of the Country of Grass, not the Daimyo of the Country of Grass, not to the side of Kusagakure."

"As long as we get enough permission, then small ninja villages like Kusagakure will not be a problem."

"."

Hearing this, all the ninjas present couldn't help but fell silent.

Even Yuna, who is usually the most energetic, did not say a single word on such a sensitive topic.

Aida Masaki was startled for a moment before reacting.

The intersection of interests between the daimyo and the ninja village has always been a taboo among all ninjas.

In fact, as early as the early days of the first generation of the village, some people saw the high degree of independence of the ninjas themselves. They could survive on their own without relying on anyone's help, and they also mastered terrifying force far beyond that of normal people.

Therefore, very early on, the proposal of 'unifying the ninja world and dominating the world' put forward by a certain unexplainable Shura of Konoha was still very popular among some ninja clans.

However, the daimyo and the nobles are not fools and will wait obediently for the butcher knife of the Ninja Village to fall on their necks.

In addition to winning over samurai on their own, nobles from many countries and daimyo joined forces to formulate a normal plan to suppress the development of ninjas. They took into account the conflicts between ninja villages and used their economic and cultural advantages to win over them.

To put it simply, the nobles of each country are one family. If any ninja dares to take the lead, then pay ninjas from other countries to eliminate them.

In short, ensuring the noble status comes first.

In addition, the ninjas themselves have not established an effective system of division of power, cultural propaganda, etc., so that ordinary people who do not have enough to eat and do not have the conditions to practice can also rise in class.

A country with a population of tens of thousands is too small compared to a big country with hundreds of millions at least.

The main population of this world is still ordinary people after all.

Over time, ninjas gradually replaced the country's original 'military' functions in the process of historical development, choosing to integrate into the country and becoming an integral part of it.

They are mercenaries in their spare time and conscripts in wartime.

Originally, the overt and covert fights between daimyo and ninjas should have become history, and everyone should not be so sensitive anymore.

But as luck would have it, something happened in the ninja world just after World War II.

The strategic ally of Konoha Village, the partner engraved on the forehead protector ninja emblem, Uzushio Village, was united by many countries, and the clan was wiped out in one night.

The reason is also very simple. In the process of inheriting the name of the Kingdom of Whirlpool, there was a usurpation of the throne.

Uzushio Village, which should not have interfered randomly, became ambitious, but it took the wrong position in it.

Therefore, after the new Daimyo of the Kingdom of Whirlpool was seated, a joint arrest by nobles from many countries was launched.

Politics is the most delicious poison.

Such a powerful ninja clan was torn apart in the constant pursuit of many countries.

In this process, not even Konoha dared to intervene.

The thunder here is really too big.

"That's the capital over there, right?"

Just as he was talking, Uchiha Shinya suddenly interrupted and pointed to the city outline on the edge of the horizon in the distance.

"Coming."

On the entire road that followed, no one found any trace of an ambush.

The convoy entered the city safely.

However, what they saw next was an eye-opener for these young ninjas.

Behind the tall and thick city wall, there are dense thatched houses built on the edge of the city wall. Occasionally, you can see figures walking in the alleys between the rows of thatched houses. Most of them are skinny and with shriveled skin.

It wasn't until we passed through the second doorway of the city wall that the general appearance of the house seemed to be inhabited by humans. It was different but equally dilapidated and decayed.

For these young people who have lived in Konoha Village for many years, this kind of scene is extremely rare to see.

The Fire Nation, with a population of over 100 million, gives Konoha nearly one percent of its annual financial expenditure as fixed military expenditure to feed Konoha's population of hundreds of thousands.

Due to the developed economy and long working hours, Konoha Village with only a small population has complete Kabukicho, casinos, and pubs, and the advanced facilities are far more advanced than other places in an era.

This makes these young people who make a profession of killing gradually forget that people in most parts of the country are still farming and weaving to support their families.

Even more than twenty years later, the house where the master bridge builder of the Land of Waves, ‘Tatsuna’, lived was just a thatched hut.

The gap between rich and poor is ridiculously wide.

And when they entered the palace city and saw the entire luxurious and beautiful palace, this feeling became even stronger.

"oh!"

Hyuga Yuna lowered her voice and leaned into Jiang Hui's ear: "This palace is about to catch up with the Hyuga clan."

"Is it that big?"

Aida Masaki was also a little curious and turned around.

Suddenly, he grabbed Yuna's hand.

"Um?!"

Uchiha Shinya's sharp eyes swept over him instantly.

Then, I heard Aida Masaki lower his voice: "Yuna, look at the carriage that just passed by, and the signs inside it."

"carriage?"

Hinata Yuna quietly opened her eyes and frowned as well.

"The sign on that carriage seems to be"

"Iwagakure?"

Hearing her voice, the bodies of the people surrounding her tensed up instantly.

"Ah, I saw it."

Hinata Yuna lowered her voice: "The people from Iwagakure are talking to the daimyo in the room to the east of the palace."

The faces of several members of Aida's team were not very good-looking.

They have some idea of ​​what this means.

As expected, not long after they submitted their names, a Jonin, a guard from the Kingdom of Grass, walked out quickly and said calmly:

"The noble lord is waiting for guests."

"Please take some rest."

"Until tomorrow, His Majesty the Great will receive all the envoys."

After saying that, the Jonin stretched out his hand to the side with a cold expression and gestured:

"please."
