c224 We shouldn’t let the world’s sorrow become these children
Chapter 224 The sorrow of the world should not become the sorrow of these children (asking for monthly tickets)
In the office belonging to Menma, various sealed boxes are neatly arranged in an orderly manner. These boxes are filled with various precious books of the Uchiha clan and the Uzumaki clan.
Among them, the application books on family ninjutsu and sealing techniques occupy the majority, such as Chakra Introduction, Ninjutsu System, Ninja Combat Application, Summoning Beast System, Blood Limit Research, Code Interpretation, Ninja Experience, etc.
There is also a part of various ancient secret cultural history that only ancient famous families such as Uchiha and Uzumaki can preserve.
For Menma, the books related to various countries and clans in the ninja world from ancient times to the present are all worth reading and studying.
After all, the culture of the previous life cannot be copied to this world. The system and regulations, people’s livelihood security, quality education, etc. need to be systematically sorted out and reformed and adapted.
If you want to be a qualified ruler, then strength and wisdom are indispensable.
Over time, Menma also developed an interest in reading.
“It’s really different from the previous life…”
Menma sat at his desk, looking down at the scroll, and raised his mouth with interest.
As he lived in this world for longer and longer, he felt more and more the difference between this world and his previous life.
Some strange phenomena in the ninja world actually have proper reasons.
The native ninjas may be used to it, but Menma will not have the illusion of “darkness under the lamp”.
The human group is actually a very exclusive race, while the small group of ninjas controls most of the resources and rights. In fact, ninjas are essentially different from ordinary people.
Even if the villagers in the ninja villages are not ninjas, they are mostly descendants of a ninja, or their descendants have the possibility of becoming ninjas.
The power of ninjas can not only be used for fighting, but also for construction and production, which is also a good choice, which will definitely strengthen their own power extremely quickly.
A ninja village that combines military and civilian uses will become a self-sufficient independent force, so there is no need to rely on nobles and ordinary people.
But the entire ninja world seems to be deliberately ignoring, or even suppressing the power of ninjas for people’s livelihood.
As a semi-mercenary military organization under the control of the noble daimyo, the nobles and ninjas maintained a certain degree of balance, fearing each other but having to rely on each other.
How do ordinary people view ninjas?
——It’s just a profession that can be hired with money.
“It seems that someone is subtly manipulating the overall direction of the ninja world behind the scenes.” Menma sighed with a twinkling look in his eyes.
No wonder the Six Paths Sage would choose to “die of old age” and stay in his own pure land to watch the ninja world.
Because humans don’t need gods to descend on the earth, even if this god was once a human.
“Ninjas have always been a closed system based on blood ties, supplemented by master-disciple inheritance, and families and groups controlling power.”
Menma thought secretly: “If you want to popularize the extraordinary power of ninjas to the public, you must try to downplay the difference between the ninja army and ordinary people.”
Not only in terms of ninjutsu and secret methods, but also in terms of identity recognition.
However, this kind of thing is not like ninjutsu and biological experiments. There is no one around him to talk to, so he can only rely on himself to slowly explore and observe.
“Not only should we educate our people ideologically and culturally, but we should also export our economy and culture to other countries.”
The Snow Country has always attached great importance to cultural export education both externally and internally, and has been steadily advancing it.
As for opening the economic door to various countries…
Menma looked at the several flower pots on the balcony, which were planted with orange-yellow irises.
This was the iris variety he first cultivated. It can not only be propagated through seeds, but also has a flowering period of several years.
The purple-black irises that are popular in the ninja world are just garbage varieties that have been cultivated many times. They can only be propagated through bulbs. They bloom once in April and May every year, and the flowering period is only about ten days. New bulbs will grow from the roots around September.
Nowadays, more and more nobles are seeking to buy irises, and people’s admiration for irises is getting stronger and stronger.
But the flowering period of this kind of flower makes it not long to be preserved. Even if the price of irises is rising, those producers have no way to quickly increase the supply.
The supply quantity cannot be increased in time to meet the strong demand, which makes many people see the business opportunities.
More powerful speculators began to purchase bulbs, reducing the supply by hoarding bulbs or monopolizing the supply channels of irises.
The “consumption stage” of directly buying and selling tulips is transitioning to the “investment stage” of buying and selling tulip bulbs.
A crisis called “economic bubble” is emerging in secret.
“However, the bubble is not big enough now, and we have to let the bullet fly for a while.”
Menma shook his head, put down the secret in his hand, and looked at the scroll unfolded on the side.
This scroll records the names of people written in blood, and red blood fingerprints are pressed under each name.
In addition to the people of the Uzumaki clan, there are also people from the Uchiha clan, the Senju clan, and the extinct Snow Clan.
These are the top wealthy families and ninja clans in the ninja world.
Turning to the beginning of the contract scroll, there is another very familiar name.
——Wet Bone Forest, Slug Sage
This is a contract scroll that has been signed by all the names and comes from the “Wet Bone Forest”.
“Compared to those historical secrets, this is a surprising discovery.”
Menma had already obtained the spatial locations of the two sacred places, Ryuchi Cave and Myoboku Mountain, from Kabuto and Naruto.
He didn’t expect that the most important Wet Bone Forest Contract Scroll would be obtained by coincidence.
Looking at the names of the ninjas on the scroll, Menma gathered chakra with his hands, and then slapped the last two names.
“Contract Seal!”
As chakra flowed out of his palms, the black spell was revealed, and the color of the two names gradually became lighter, and finally disappeared completely on the scroll.
“Hehe, in this way, the secrets of the three sacred places can be revealed.”
Menma smiled, bit his finger, and wanted to sign his name in the empty vertical grid.
However, the movement of his hand suddenly stopped.
According to the records of the Uzumaki clan, the character of the Slug Sage is gentle and friendly.
His performance in the original work is also much better than that of the White Snake and the Toad.
Even if something really happened in the Wet Bone Forest, he could return to the Ninja World at any time with the psychic contract.
“No worries, maybe you can be bolder.”
Thinking of this, Menma stood up, took the contract scroll, and walked out of the office.
………………
In a classroom at Snow City Academy.
“People launch Ninjutsu by activating the chakra in their bodies. Ordinary chakra is obtained by mixing their own physical energy and spiritual energy, and the fairy chakra is…Xiaoxue!”
On the podium, a teacher with red hair was giving a lecture.
However, when he saw a “highness” who was slacking off, he said helplessly: “The fairy course is very difficult. If you fail the exam, I will tell the third wife.”
Hearing this, other students couldn’t help but laugh kindly.
Fenghua Xiaoxue, who was originally planning to pass the note, saw that she was discovered, and couldn’t help but beg for mercy with a red face: “Yes~Yes~Teacher Luming~”
However, she just sat upright for a moment, and then began to daydream in the classroom again.
Seeing this, Uzumaki Luming had to shake his head helplessly.
Although as a competent teacher, he sincerely hoped that the monarch could be more serious in class, learn some useful knowledge, and become a wise queen as soon as possible.
But looking at Fenghua Xiaoxue’s lack of interest, it can be known that she is not interested in fairy arts at all.
Come to think of it, this person has no interest in learning ninjutsu, let alone the boring basic theoretical knowledge of fairy arts.
Forget it.
Anyway, I don’t expect this prince to learn fairy arts, as long as he can pass the theoretical exam, it will be enough.
“Really, why do you still need to learn fairy arts?”
Fuhana Koyuki lazily propped up her chin and turned her head to look at Kurama Yakumo on the left: “Yakumo, you listen so carefully, can you really understand?”
“Yakumo?”
“Little Yakumo~”
Even Yakumo, who has a calm personality, was annoyed by her harassment.
“Koyuki, you almost failed the last exam.”
“If you fail the exam in a week, you will be scolded by those old men.”
After that, he stopped talking to Koyuki and continued to listen to the class seriously.
This is the knowledge of fairy arts. Although it is only the basic theory of entry level, it can’t be learned anywhere else.
As a monarch, Fuhana Koyuki can be willful, but as a member of the Kurama clan, she can’t be willful.
Seeing Yakumo ignore her, Koyuki also felt bored.
“Ah~”
She lowered her head and counted her fingers, sighed and muttered: “There are still three days before the holiday, time is passing so slowly.”
The days of becoming a monarch are not as beautiful as she imagined.
Although she has become the monarch of the Snow Country, Xiaoxue herself is still a child and does not know how to manage the country.
So, the current Snow Country is managed by the ministers of Asama Santaifu.
And Xiaoxue still needs to go through systematic learning and complete all courses like ordinary children, so that she can better manage the Snow Country after graduation.
However, when her father Fuuka Soyuki was still there, she only studied courses in the palace for two hours a day.
Now she has to spend nine hours a day in textbooks, and she has to take time to handle government affairs after returning home.
For her, who is extroverted and impetuous by nature and has poor ninja talent, such a day is like hell.
Xiaoxue sighed in her heart: “Suddenly I feel that filming is not so tiring.”
But the next work still needs to wait for Jiraiya to submit the manuscript.
I really want Sister Quan to lock Jiraiya in a small dark room and make him write manuscripts day and night!
Just when Fenghua Xiaoxue was complaining in her heart, in the corridor separated by only a wall.
“Mr. San Taifu, and… Mr. Menma?”
When the teacher standing outside the classroom saw the faces of the two people, he was immediately surprised, especially when he saw the person in front of Asama San Taifu.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t receive the message…”
Menma waved his hand nonchalantly: “Don’t worry, I just came to take a look… You continue to do your things, there is no need to care about me.”
“Yes, if you need anything, please tell me.” The teacher from the Uzumaki clan said respectfully.
Menma turned around and looked at the young faces in the classroom.
Konoha has always been called the “will of fire”, that is, where the leaves are flying, the fire will also continue.
Its meaning is that the fire will always illuminate the village, and then let the new leaves sprout, which is the earnest expectation of the older generation for the healthy growth of the young.
At the beginning, Hashirama Senju hoped that the generations of Konoha ninjas would be able to pass on this inheritance will forever.
Although he did not agree with the empty part of it, Menma had to admit that this sentence made sense.
In any case, the adults will gradually age and die, and those children are the hope for the future.
Menma, who had lived in the ninja world for many years, knew very well the strengths and weaknesses of this world.
Although the people of the five major countries were in poverty, they could barely survive.
But small countries such as the Rain Country and the Grass Country are really hell on earth.
Killing, robbery, cannibalism, moral degradation…
The nobles only cared about preserving themselves, and did not care about the lives of the people at all, and turned a blind eye to the occurrence of these tragedies.
The sins caused by the adults made the weaker ones bear all the pain.
And the weakest ones are these children.
There are too many children who have suffered in this world, so many that it is impossible to accurately calculate them with numbers.
They carry the pain and hatred of war, and when they grow up, they continue to pass on this hatred to the next generation, and then continue endlessly.
If such things cannot be solved, even if Menma uses his power to rule the ninja world, he will only get a chaotic world.
Therefore, Menma proposed the “Homeless Children Shelter Plan”.
For him, the growth of children is the first thing to be put in the first place.
After a long silence, Menma asked: “Are all the orphans here?”
“Yes…”
San Taifu paused, sighed and said: “Except for those who have died.”
Menma nodded expressionlessly.
Most of the children in this elite class are children of refugees or orphans who have lost their parents.
However, this group of children with tragic backgrounds have already mastered the most basic three body techniques, and their physical skills and chakra control abilities have also made significant progress.
Among them, the outstanding ones have even begun to learn higher-level advanced subjects such as battlefield tracking, disguised escape, and stealth assassination.
You should know that in the ninja schools of the five major ninja villages, the most basic three-body technique will not be tested until graduation. Such students from civilian backgrounds are almost cannon fodder who are not even considered as Genin.
If they go to the battlefield, they can only explore the way and consume the enemy’s ninja tools and chakra.
Menma will not allow the children of the Snow Country to become victims.
“San Taifu, you say…”
Menma asked in a complicated tone: “When these children grow up, will they use their own strength to take revenge on the world?”
San Taifu was stunned, then thought about it, shook his head and said: “Sir, to be honest, I don’t know.”
“But I only know that what we did is right, and I believe what you said.”
“We should not let the sorrow of the world become the sorrow of these children.”
“…Really?”
Menma sighed deeply: “I hope so.”
It may be right, or it may be wrong.
In the eyes of others, he may be a very kind person who has implemented many policies that benefit the people in the Snow Country.
But Menma knows very well.
He is definitely not a pacifist.
He just wants to make the world what he wants it to be.
Changing this boring world is his real purpose.
