Red sand dust

"I just said casually, forget it if it doesn't work! But is the water shortage in the Kingdom of Wind really that serious?"

Nara Shikamaru asked with a frown.

Temari couldn't help but replied:

"We encountered a storm when we first arrived at Sunagakure Village, which may have given you some misconceptions. After a while, you will know that Sunagakure Village is pretty good and there is no shortage of drinking water, but if you want to do something else, just It’s more difficult…”

As long as the water is not too polluted, it is recycled.

Using the power of ninjas, Sand Hidden Village barely maintains a delicate balance, but the same cannot be said for other places in the Kingdom of Wind.

The actual conditions are so bad, it is not impossible to plant fruit trees, but in fact the gain outweighs the loss. The little money earned will be lost in other aspects along with the profits.

“Have you never thought about building dams and reservoirs?”

Umino Iruka, who was still slightly interested in these topics, asked aloud,

"With the power of ninja, it shouldn't be a problem to slightly change the terrain..."

For a very difficult task for ordinary people, a ninja may only need to perform a few ninjutsu.

Daimaru couldn't help but laugh and said:

"It's not surprising that you have this idea. In fact, the sand ninjas have tried it before. Unfortunately, the weather is not good. It never rains. The prepared reservoir has no water to store, and then it is filled up by the wind and sand..."

"So exaggerated?"

"Basically, Suna Ninja has tried every method that the human brain can think of. The power of Ninja is indeed powerful, but it is too arrogant to think that we can defeat nature. Every victory we think will be in the near future. In the future, nature will take revenge with both capital and profit..."

"Is it possible that I didn't choose the right method?"

"Maybe!"

Daimaru shrugged.

The land of Wind is larger than the Land of Fire and Water combined. If it can really solve the problem of water shortage, it will sooner or later become the strongest in the ninja world.

"Actually, what we can do now is try to regain the lost ground..."

"Recovering lost ground?"

It sounds like the sand ninja is really fighting against the sky, but in fact it's not much different.

"Due to human activities, some oases and water sources have been destroyed due to excessive development. It is still possible to restore these places into habitable places for humans. As for fundamentally changing the water shortage dilemma in the Kingdom of Wind, we still have Can't do it..."

Lack of wisdom or lack of ability are all reasons. If we really have the power to overturn rivers and seas, these problems will naturally be solved.

Haruno Sakura, who was listening quietly on the side, sighed and said:

"It is clear that heavy rains have caused disasters in the Rain Country, but the wind country next to it is so dry. Why is this happening?"

In fact, the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Fire are in the west and the other in the east. Logically speaking, the difference should not be so big, but the reality makes people have to accept that fate is sometimes so unfair.

"Probably because the sea breeze from the west and south blows all the water vapor from the Kingdom of Wind to the Kingdom of Rain and pours it down!"

“Isn’t the sea breeze supposed to bring precipitation?”

Nara Shikamaru asked strangely,

"The monsoon in the southeast of the Fire Country is accompanied by continuous rainfall every spring and autumn..."

"You have already said that it is a monsoon, and it will change direction with the seasons. The country of wind is not so convenient. There is southwest wind all year round. The difference between the four seasons is that the wind force is stronger and weaker. There are occasional exceptions. As a result, you I saw it, the latest storm..."

"That's it!"

Nara Shikamaru roughly understood what Daimaru meant.

The Kingdom of Wind is too flat, and there is no Great Dividing Range to block water vapor. The most important windward slope is within the Kingdom of Rain. The "draft" passing through the Kingdom of Wind not only leaves no rainwater, but also increases evaporation, turning the remaining A little surface water is also taken away.

What dominates the climate of the Kingdom of Wind may not be the ocean climate that everyone thinks at all, but the trade wind belt that is closely related to the distribution of hot and cold in the entire world and the rotation of the planet. Due to limited knowledge, people in the ninja world do not have the concept of "trade wind" at all, and naturally they do not understand how difficult it is to solve the water shortage problem in the Kingdom of Wind.

Even before Daimaru crossed over, in ordinary people's understanding, there was always no shortage of water along the coast, and it was a lush and fertile land.

However, few people realize that the largest deserts in the world are basically located in coastal areas. For example, the Sahara in North Africa, the arid central and western parts of Australia, southern Africa and southeastern South America.

Except for the Taklimakan Desert, which is located in the rain shadow area on the leeward slopes of the Himalayas, other naturally formed irreversible deserts are all coastal areas affected by trade winds.

According to Daimaru's observation, the country of the wind, which is dry and rainless, is most likely unlucky enough to be affected by the trade wind belt.

To completely solve this problem, one has to transform into the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki and pull up a mountain range out of thin air in the Kingdom of Wind as the windward slope of the watershed. This can intercept a little water vapor and improve the water-scarce environment of the Kingdom of Wind.

Or annex the Kingdom of Rain, use the power of ninjas to open rivers to divert water to the Kingdom of Wind, build large reservoirs, build water conservancy projects, and restore vegetation to lock in water.

But which of these is easy to do?

Such a good thing can only be thought about in dreams. It is better to be more realistic in doing things.

"Is there no other way?"

Even Konoha ninjas who know a little bit about the plight of the Country of Wind find it difficult. Nara Shikamaru couldn't help but sigh and asked.

"There must be a way, but it's too difficult and can't be realized now..."

If science and technology develop to a certain level, reverse osmosis membranes can be manufactured, or multi-stage flash evaporation technology can be used to directly desalinate seawater, coupled with the power of ninjas, the pressure of water shortage in the Kingdom of Wind can be greatly alleviated.

But is this what Daimaru can count on? It would be better to wait until after the Fourth Ninja War and find a solution directly in the Land of Rain.

In Sunagakure Village today, it is more realistic to use underground water. At least it has begun to tap some shallow groundwater for use.

"Hey, Daimaru, do you really have a way to find water?"

Temari asked Daimaru eagerly.

As long as it was about water, there was no Suna Ninja that didn't care about.

"Don't think about it, Suna Ninja can't do it!"

Daimaru chuckled and shook his head.

No one in the ninja world has really studied this problem. Even the Suna ninja, after trying many methods but failing, gradually gave up on exploring their own potential. Instead, they thought about going outside to grab territory, and then they were beaten to shame time and time again.

"I thought you really had a way..."

"You overestimate me..."

Daimaru smiled bitterly and said,

"For decades, so many seniors in the village have not solved the problem, and I can find a solution to the problem just by opening my mouth? Unless there is a ninjutsu that can make it rain instantly..."

Wait, it looks like it does!
