Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide! - Chapter 233

c232 The great construction of the Water Country

“Looking at the village that your grandfather built with one hand, what would you do now?”

Hozuki Shingetsu thought with interest as she looked at Tsunade, whose eyes were faintly filled with sadness.

To be honest, it was Shingetsu Shingetsu who revealed the information between Shimura Danzo and Kirigakure to Tsunade.

After all, now that Shimura Danzo has successfully become Hokage, the various contracts between the two have also ended, and this information is of no use to Shingetsu Shingetsu.

Because it is unlikely that Shimura Danzo can be overthrown with just one piece of information.

People only need to say that this is a conspiracy of Kirigakure, including photos and other things are disguised by Kirigakure ninjas using transformation techniques, and they can easily escape this accusation.

There is no way. After so many years of persistently fleecing Konoha, Shingetsu Shingetsu’s reputation in Konoha is now comparable to Shimura Danzo in the ninja world and Tosaka Tokiomi of Type-Moon.

What?

Someone is against Konoha?

That must be the work of the naturally evil Hozuki Shingetsu!

So in this case, if Tsunade returns the document to Konoha, it would be the best; if she does not return the document to Konoha, that is also good.

Because that means Tsunade, the granddaughter of Hashirama Senju, is truly heartbroken for Konoha and has lost hope for the village built by her grandfather.

In this case, even if the Hidden Mist Village does not have the opportunity to recruit Tsunade, it will not be a loss.

After all, the granddaughter of the founder of this village has been wandering outside for many years and refused to return to the village. There are many reasons for this.

Is it because of the personal wishes of Princess Tsunade, or because… the darkness of Konoha can’t even stand the granddaughter of the God of Ninjas?

Hozuki Shingetsu is looking forward to it.

Objectively speaking, although the current Konoha has suffered a great loss in strength due to the consumption of the Second Ninja World War and the successive planning of Hozuki Shingetsu, it can still be regarded as the first in the Ninja World in terms of overall strength.

There is no way. Konoha has the largest number of bloodline ninjas in the ninja world, and the number of middle and high-level ninjas is also the largest in the ninja world.

It is now the 40th year of Kirigakure, which is the 41st year of Konoha.

Kirigakure has only been in charge of Kirigakure for eight years. If calculated according to the number of graduates from the ninja school, there are only eight more ninjas than before.

Although Kirigakure has secretly controlled the Water Country, he ordered the establishment of ninja schools in various villages, selected talented talents from the civilians of the entire Water Country and sent them to Kirigakure, and even planned to establish a ninja school in the East Continent.

But after all, the time is too short, and the ninja school has just been established, and it has not fully integrated the huge population and territory of the Water Country and the East Continent.

So the source of new ninjas in Kirigakure is mainly from the annual ninja school graduates in the village.

And due to the talents of civilian ninjas and the previous training model, only one-fifth of these eight batches of ninjas have been promoted to Chunin.

If we only talk about the strength of Genin, then the current Kirigakure is undoubtedly the best in the ninja world.

If we talk about individual strength, the current Kirigakure Shingetsu can almost be said to be invincible in the ninja world.

However, under the premise that there are no strong people who have been separated from each other, the ninja villages still compete with each other in terms of overall strength. For now, Konoha is still the primary enemy that Kirigakure must target now and in the short and medium term.

So whenever there is an opportunity that can make Konoha unable to take care of itself, Kirigakure Shingetsu will definitely not let it go.

Tsunade did not notice the look in Kirigakure Shingetsu’s eyes. After obtaining Kirigakure Shingetsu’s consent, she seemed to have lost her mind and stumbled out of the Mizukage’s office, causing the clerks downstairs in the Mizukage building to speculate.

If it weren’t for the fact that Tsunade was just in a trance instead of being ragged and inconvenient to move, these clerks who were used to the “world” almost thought that Kirigakure had opened a “foreign meat” today.

“The Second Ninja World War has ended for nearly three years… The current history of the Ninja World has deviated from the original due to my participation.”

“However, considering the inertia of history and the speed of recuperation of various countries, it is estimated that the Third Ninja World War will start in five years at the fastest and eight years at the slowest.”

Hozuki Shingetsu stood up and looked out the window. Tsunade, who was walking away in a daze, kept thinking about the various developments of the Hidden Mist Village in her heart, and did not notice the quiet departure of Yuki Nagi.

“Now the East Continent has just begun to develop, and the Hidden Mist Village is still in the accumulation period and has not yet ushered in the outbreak period. Even if it ushered in the outbreak period, as long as the Hidden Mist Village cannot fight four alone, then the plan to unify the continent is doomed to fail.”

“So the main goal of the Third Ninja World War will eventually be set on Konoha, and all countries will unite to occupy Konoha, or at least split it.”

“Well… If this is the case, we need to grasp the news of Konoha’s Samsara Eye. This is a good opportunity to destroy the “coalition” of fire, earth, and thunder and gather the four-nation alliance…”

Bang!

Just when Hozuki was lost in thought, he suddenly heard the sound of the office door opening.

He turned around and saw that it was Tsunade who had just left.

“Strange… When did she come back? I just saw her going far away…”

He had been looking at the street, but Tsunade left his sight and came to the Mizukage’s office, which made Hozuki curious.

But even so, Hozuki hid his curiosity and asked Tsunade the purpose of her return in a gentlemanly manner.

But Tsunade didn’t say anything, just stood there and gasped.

Under the influence of the universal breast power, Hozuki Shingetsu’s eyes inevitably fell there.

Tsunade ignored Hozuki Shingetsu’s sight, and continued to walk towards Hozuki Shingetsu without saying a word.

And from this swaying gait, Hozuki Shingetsu finally saw the clue.

“You are… Yuki Nagi?”

Hearing the words, Yuki Nagi, whose identity was revealed, a look of disappointment suddenly appeared on her face, and she straightened her back with the help of her hands.

“Damn, I thought I was already very proficient in this transformation technique, how did you find out?”

Hozuki Shingetsu looked at her originally flat but now towering place with a pitying look. This part suddenly had a few pounds of fat, even a senior ninja would have to adapt for a few minutes. Just now, Yuki Nagi’s walking posture was obviously different from Tsunade, and he also saw the clue from this point.

However, this flaw could not be told to Xue Nagi, so Hozuki Shingetsu immediately took the initiative and asked her why she pretended to be Tsunade.

“Isn’t it because you kept glancing at that place intentionally or unintentionally just now…”

Xue Nagi pouted in the manner of Tsunade.

It’s true that this unusual look really gave Hozuki Shingetsu a different kind of stimulation.

So Hozuki Shingetsu rolled his eyes and immediately had a new idea.

“Really… I have portraits of several people here, just in time to test your mastery of transformation techniques today.”

Xue Nagi was pulled over by Hozuki Shingetsu and watched him take out a large stack of portraits from the drawer of the office.

“Who is this?”

Looking at the pile of beautiful girls with different styles and faces on the table, Xue Nagi’s face rarely showed a curious look.

“This is Sawamura Eri, this is Yukinoshita Yukino, this is Tomokazu Nao… and this one, this is Kaguya Otsutsuki.”

Hozuki Shingetsu introduced her paper wives in her previous life to Yuki Nagi one by one.

Then, looking at Yuki Nagi who wanted to ask something else, she said to her anxiously: “No time to explain… Change for me!”

So under Hozuki Shingetsu’s strong request, the clerks downstairs put on their earmuffs again skillfully.

Just when Konoha Shimura Danzo was proudly ascending to the position of Hokage, the East Continent Goji Yagura was constantly conquering the local natives, Tsunade of the Hidden Mist Village was sad, and Hozuki Shingetsu’s gun was like a dragon, the great construction of the Water Country was in full swing.

Since Mizutsu Tomo became the daimyo of the Water Country by killing his father and brother and slaughtering all the male members of the royal family, Mizutsu Tomo has changed his previous arrogant and domineering appearance of enjoying himself.

Since the day he ascended the throne, Shui Dufu has issued many decrees in succession after proposing the solution of “building ninja schools in villages” to solve the decreasing food benefits and increasing bandit problems in the country of Water.

These decrees include large-scale domestic road construction, proposing to increase the mileage of domestic high-quality roads tenfold in the next five years and complete the construction of the railway from the capital of Water Country to the Hidden Mist Village;

Water conservancy construction, the number of water conservancy facilities will increase threefold in the next five years;

Urbanization construction, doubled in the next five years;

Tax reform, all taxes and corvée for civilians are classified into one category, called “One Whip Law”. Tax items such as inheritance tax and rich tax are levied on specific groups with more than a certain amount of property;

Build civilian schools and colleges of higher learning in specific disciplines to encourage civilians to receive education;

A few positions are open to civilians through examinations, etc.

These decrees are also collectively referred to as the first five-year plan of the country of Water, referred to as “the first five-year plan”.

It is not difficult to see from the above decrees that this “Li Shimin” of the country of Water wants to improve the lives of the people and improve their living standards.

Compared with his previous image, it can be said that he has changed his previous image of a dandy boy. In a sense, he looks like a wise ruler.

Therefore, among the people of the Water Country, the reputation of the former second prince who killed his father and brother has reversed instantly, surpassing his father and being loved by the people.

However, according to the law of conservation, this is loved by the people, and naturally it will be hated by another part of the people.

This other part of the people is naturally the nobles and wealthy businessmen of the original Water Country!

Not to mention the inheritance tax and rich tax that directly hit their heads, just agreeing to let the common people receive education and allow the common people to enter the officialdom is enough to make them feel uncomfortable and dissatisfied with the rich of the Water Country.

After all, since ancient times, how can we collect taxes from the nobles?

And those mud legs are also worthy of literacy and reading books?

Are they worthy of being officials in the same palace with us?

However, no matter how much dissatisfaction these people have in their hearts, they can only hold it in their hearts.

After all, Shui Dufu had only usurped the throne not long ago, and the blood of the royal family members he killed had not been washed clean, so naturally no one dared to jump out and stab him at this time.

Moreover, the above items were not intolerable. Although they were unhappy, they were not to the point of being unacceptable.

In this case, all the nobles regarded this as the three fires of the new king’s accession to the throne, and they all thought that they could just endure it.

And this was exactly why Gui Deng Xinyue did not kill Shui Dufu as originally planned, but instead used the blood dragon eye to control him.

After all, where can you find such a good scapegoat?

With Mizutsufu in the front, Kizuki Shingetsu secretly governs the country with his will, suppresses the nobles, and waits until the nobles can no longer bear it, then stands up at their request to kick out Mizutsufu, and is forced to support the princess as the female daimyo. Isn’t this a win?

After all, Master Kizuki is kind-hearted and can’t stand seeing death and injury, so this kind of cleansing of the nobles should be left to others!

——

Somewhere in the Land of Water, in front of a dense forest, the First Construction Company of the Hidden Mist Village is carrying out road construction.

A Mist Ninja stood in front of the dense forest, made seals with his hands and took a deep breath:

“Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!”

In an instant, a ball of strong fire spewed out of his mouth, and under his control, it burned straight towards the trees in the predetermined direction of the road.

Crash!

Boom!

The dense trees could not withstand the raging fire at all, and collapsed one after another under this fire style ninjutsu.

And seeing that the trees were almost burned, another Mist Ninja stood up.

“Water Style: Water Wave!”

Instantly, a highly compressed stream of water sprayed out from the air of the Mist Ninja, and soon, under his precise control, the forest fire was extinguished.

At this time, another Mist Ninja stood up and slapped the land with his hands.

“Earth Style: Hardening Technique!”

Boom!

Under the control of the Mist Ninja, the land in front of him seemed to be crushed by an invisible thing. A rectangular flat land with a width of six meters and a length of fifty meters instantly appeared on the uneven land.

After the Mist Ninja finished leveling the land, someone else took out a seal scroll from his pocket and spread a large amount of sand and gravel and other building materials sealed in the scroll on the land.

“Earth Style: Clay from the Sky!”

The previous Mist Ninja appeared again, and with his hands forming seals, a different space with a diameter of about five meters suddenly appeared about ten meters above the road.

Crack!

From this different space with a deep blue light, clay kept falling.

Under the control of the Mist Ninja, these clays were fully bonded with sand and gravel and other building materials. Suddenly, these originally loose building materials became extremely solid under the action of this clay from another space.

So a high-quality road with a width of six meters and a length of one hundred meters was built.

The above four people kept repeating this process, burning the forest, extinguishing the fire, leveling the land, placing building materials, summoning clay…

Before the chakra was exhausted, it was only with the power of these four Genin that a 600-meter high-quality road was built in a dense mountain forest in less than half an hour.

Compared with the previous use of manpower, its efficiency is more than several times faster?
