Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide! - Chapter 245
c244 Supplies are abundant, soldiers are strong, and we will take the initiative to attack!
“You are progressing so fast now. A ten-year-old jounin has already set a record for jounin promotion. Although there is a training plan specially formulated for you by the Chakra Research Institute, it is still a bit difficult for you to master such strength at your age. Vain.”
“So in the next period of time, your goal is to lay a solid foundation as much as possible and stabilize your strength.”
In Kirigakure Village, Mizukage Building, Ghost Light Crescent Moon is educating his adopted son Yakushi Kabuto.
Six years have passed, and the twenty-four-year-old Ghost Light Xinyue has now fully grown. With a height of over 1.8 meters and a heroic face, coupled with the magnanimity developed from long-term control of Kirigakure Village, he is no longer the same as before. That young man looked like a leader.
With such a stature, he stood in front of Kabuto Yakushi, and with his similar white hair, let alone his adoptive father, maybe some people would believe him if he said that Ghost Light Crescent Moon was Kabuto Yakushi’s biological father.
“Okay, Lord Xinyue.”
Kabuto Yakushi nodded meekly as he faced Ghost Light Crescent Moon’s teachings.
Six years have passed, and Yakushi Kabuto has long since given up his hostility to Kiden Crescent Moon and regarded himself as a true Kirigakure person, thanks to various schemes and tactics of Kiden Shinetsu and Yakushi Nonou’s constant persuasion. . .
People in the ninja world are already precocious, let alone a rare genius like Kabuto Yakushi.
Even if he doesn’t reach the level of Uchiha Itachi who had the Hokage mind when he was three years old, at this age, he still knows who is good to him and who is not good to him.
Knowing which place is more beneficial to the development of yourself, the pharmacist Nonoyu, and everyone in the orphanage.
Not to mention experiencing the legendary “Will of Fire” during his years in Konoha, he couldn’t even guarantee the funds for the orphanage. How could he, who had lived in Kirigakure Village for six years, fall in love with Konoha?
What’s more, in the past six years, Gui Deng Xinyue really had nothing to say to him.
From time to time, he would drag him to the Chakra Research Institute, introduce him to many highly confidential projects, and order people to systematically tutor him about chakra research and science and technology.
In terms of ninja practice, he not only taught him the water escape chakra mode he created, but also often took him to experience immortal arts and learn about the immortal mode.
Although Kabuto Yakushi has not truly mastered the sage mode due to his physical development and chakra capacity, his expanded understanding of chakra, coupled with Ghost Light Crescent’s unwavering support for him, was enough to enable him to achieve success at the age of ten. Become a Jonin.
Hearing Yakushi Kabuto’s name, Gui Deng Xinyue couldn’t help but frown.
“Kabuto, you don’t even want to call me foster father… Is it possible that the relationship between us is already like this?”
Under the forcing eyes of Kiden Xinyue and the snickers of Terumi Mei and others around him, Yakushi Kabuto looked stunned, and finally called out his adoptive father.
“Well, very good… I have already told you all the unnecessary words during the Jonin Promotion Conference and in our relationship over the years, so I won’t repeat them again.”
Ghost Light Crescent looked at the people who were promoted to Jonin standing in a row in front of him with a serious look on his face, “I only want to remind you one thing.”
“What I said at the Jonin Promotion Conference before, ‘Give up your illusions and prepare for war,’ is not groundless.”
Under the watchful eyes of all the geniuses of Kirigakure Village, Gui Deng Xinyue revealed his judgment completely.
“The situation in the ninja world is getting more and more tense now. The strength of the anti-Konoha alliance here continues to grow as time goes by, and the overall strength has already surpassed Konoha’s geometry.”
“So whether it’s our side that can’t restrain its desire to pull Konoha, the number one in the ninja world, into sedition and wants to take the initiative to start a war, or Konoha’s side that doesn’t want to sit back and wait for death and wants to preemptively provoke a war, this war is already inevitable. ”
“So I ask you to try to avoid going out on missions alone during this period of time.”
Gui Deng Xinyue looked at the group of Kirigakure essences that she had worked hard to cultivate for nearly ten years before her, and warned them in a serious tone.
After all, for him, loyal people are easy to find, and capable people are easy to find, but people who are both loyal and capable are not so easy to find.
It took him ten years to cultivate such a group of elites who truly belong to him. Naturally, he didn’t want anything to happen to them at this sensitive time.
He didn’t want anyone present to become Archduke Ferdinand, nor did he want to become Franz Joseph, the trigger for the Third Ninja War.
And thanks to the various grievances between him and Konoha, Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha, if Konoha chooses to take the initiative to win the initiative, the probability of Kirigakure Village being selected as the trigger can be said to be very high .
Everyone present was trained by Gui Deng Xinyue, so naturally they would not object to Gui Deng Xinyue’s opinion at this time, not to mention that they also knew that Gui Deng Xinyue was protecting them, so they simply agreed.
“Lord Xinyue, Lord Goju Yagura is back.”
Just when Kiden Shinetsu finished talking to the new jonins and they filed out, Akiba Masanobu walked quickly to Kiden Shinetsu and lowered his head to report.
Gui Deng Xinyue raised her head in surprise, and then saw her childhood friend who had been away for many years standing proudly at the door of the office, looking at him with a smile on his face.
“Haha, Yagura, it’s been so long!”
Without asking about the East Continent in a hurry, Gui Deng Xin Yue showed a look of surprise, and hugged Gou Ju Ya Cang to express his excitement at the moment.
“Count the time, since you went to the East Continent, we haven’t seen each other for almost six years, right? Time flies so fast!”
Facing Gui Deng Xin Yue’s true feelings, Gou Ju Ya Cang was naturally full of emotion.
The rest of the people in the office saw this scene, and naturally knew what the two were going to talk about next, so they all quietly left the office tacitly, leaving enough space for the two to talk.
“Yeah… I didn’t expect you to be married after six years.”
Gou Ju Ya Cang also sighed, “At that time, the natives of the East Continent happened to be connected together and launched a large-scale guerrilla warfare, which led to my failure to come back in time to congratulate you. You won’t blame me, right?”
“How could it be… You also worked hard for the village, how could I blame you!”
In these six years, the biggest change of Gui Deng Xin Yue is that she has changed from an unmarried person to a married person.
As the saying goes, when flowers are in bloom, they must be picked. Six years have passed, and Uzumaki Kushina is no longer the red-haired girl who stood up for others in Uzushio Village.
Now Uzumaki Kushina has grown into the image in the mind of Kizuki Shingetsu. The long red hair tied into a ponytail is really too much to poke Kizuki Shingetsu’s XP.
So when Uzumaki Kushina turned 18, the two held a grand wedding under the witness of everyone in Kizuki Village.
Well, it is worth mentioning that Uzumaki Kushina’s bridesmaids were not from the Uzumaki clan, but she appointed them herself.
And I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the bridesmaids she appointed were Yuki Nagi, Sarah, and Yakushi Nono.
So objectively speaking, there was actually a lot of fun at the wedding of Master Kizuki.
After the two of them exchanged a simple greeting, Goji Yagura began to report to him the current situation of Kizuki Company in the East Continent with a serious face.
“Militarily, we have occupied all the major cities in the East Continent so far. In other words, we have controlled about 80% of the population in the East Continent.”
“Under our attack, the guerrilla forces loyal to the former royal family or those ambitious people have lost their scale and can only survive in remote places. The East Continent is now firmly in our hands.”
Ghost Lantern Xinyue nodded. After all, the population and area of the East Continent are not inferior to the Ninja Continent. It is unrealistic to rely on the thousands of people sent by the Hidden Mist Village to completely control this continent.
Even under the planning of Ghost Lantern Xinyue, the establishment of the Mist Association Army and the Second Devil Corps is unrealistic. There are always some ravines or dangerous places where people live. It is enough to control all the large and medium-sized cities and traffic arteries.
After all, the purpose of the Hidden Mist Village is not to occupy, but to dump goods and plunder raw materials.
But Goju Yakura did not stop talking, but continued to introduce:
“In terms of resources, thirteen large gold and silver mines and dozens of small and medium-sized gold and silver mines have been discovered in the East Continent. Large minerals such as copper, iron, and coal have also been discovered in many places… Thanks to the successful development of iron-framed warships in the past few years, the natural barriers between the two continents can no longer hinder the communication between them. The East Continent is now able to bear the responsibility of supplying local raw materials and selling goods in the village.”
Speaking of this, Goju Yakura’s face was full of pride.
After all, to be honest, it is not difficult to open up colonies. After all, the strength of the Kirigakure ninjas is here. The generation gap in combat power between them and the East Continent is enough to allow them to snatch large tracts of territory like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.
The difficulty lies in how to ensure the operation of the colony and maintain the colony’s continuous blood transfusion for the Kirigakure.
The Kirigakure is located in the Land of Water, and the characteristic of an island country is the lack of mineral resources.
When we were living a peaceful life, we plundered countless mineral resources from the land of flowers and sank them all to the bottom of the sea near the main island. Wasn’t it for the long-term plan in the future?
The Third Ninja World War was a siege against Konoha. With the support of the three countries of wind, land and thunder, the Hidden Mist Village was naturally not afraid of the overseas resource channels being cut off.
However, according to the idea of Kizuki to unify the ninja world, as the strength and ambition of the Hidden Mist Village increased, the Fourth Ninja World War would inevitably be an invasion of the Hidden Mist Village.
By that time, the Hidden Mist Village, which was isolated overseas, would inevitably be cut off from the resource supply of the Ninja Continent by the coalition forces, so Kizuki must prepare for a rainy day and ensure that the East Continent can provide sufficient raw materials.
Although Kizuki has enough confidence in his personal strength, he will never underestimate the heroes of the world. After all, there are too many times in history when such resources are exhausted and defeated.
The German in World War I and World War II are the biggest examples.
So for Goji Yagura, Kizuki certainly has no reservations about praise.
“Then there is education. With our strong support and publicity, all cities in the East Continent are now covered by ninja schools.”
“After six years of hard work, according to statistics, the number of people who can refine chakra in the East Continent has reached more than 100,000 (they don’t know ninjutsu but only know how to refine chakra). And according to the standard of each ninja school recommending one genius every year, the East Continent can now send 97 outstanding ninja students to the Hidden Mist every year.”
Kizuki nodded, very satisfied with this number.
With the Kirigakure in control of 80% of the population of the East Continent, this can be roughly regarded as selecting these 97 talents from tens of millions of people in the East Continent every year. The probability is more than one in ten thousand?
It is simply one in a million!
Combined with the ninja schools opened in various places in the Water Country, it is not polite to say that any person picked out of the Kirigakure Ninja School will be treasured by the leaders of those small ninja villages. It can be said that it is a genius that only appears once in ten years in each small ninja village.
In other words, the time is still short. The first batch of students just graduated this year. If it takes more than ten years, Konoha will be a small trash in front of Kizuna Shingetsu, and there is no need to pretend to be with the Hidden Cloud Village, the Hidden Rock Village, and the Hidden Sand Village, and to form an anti-Konoha alliance in a roundabout way.
At that time, the Hidden Mist Village will be able to fight four with its hard power, and directly shout that everyone present is trash.
At this point, the basic situation of the East Continent has been basically described, but Yagura Kujitsu has one last item left to talk about, which is the bloodline limit birth plan.
“Under the effect of the concubine birth order, the ninjas who went to the East Continent, as well as the bloodline limit holders that you, Xinyue, have been sending to the East Continent over the years, basically, except for eating, sleeping and necessary training, they are all mating with native women, giving birth at an average rate of ten births per person per year.”
“In the past six years, the East Continent has added eighty-six bloodline ninjas.”
Yagura Kujitsu couldn’t help but flash a hint of excitement on his face when he said this.
Bloodline limit ninjas are already rare, and these eighty-six bloodline ninjas are enough to rival the large and medium-sized ninja clans in the Hidden Mist Village.
It is equivalent to having one more large and medium-sized ninja clan every six years in the Hidden Mist Village. How much of an enhancement will this be for the improvement of the combat power of the Hidden Mist Village?
In fact, this last item also involves the plan to divide the ninja clan, but facing a war, and the plan has just been launched, the newborns have not grown up yet, so the two tacitly did not mention this matter.
“Eighty-six…”
Hozuki Shingetsu muttered to himself, and soon calculated the current strength of the Hidden Mist Village.
“The total number of ninjas is more than 20,000, 890 jonins, more than 3,000 chunins, and 20,000 genins… Among them, there are more than 500 bloodline ninjas, and more than 360 people with combat effectiveness…”
“Now the village has a surplus of 50 billion taels, and the stored materials are enough for the village to fight for four years…”
Hozuki Shingetsu silently recited this number in his heart, and a trace of pride flashed across his face.
“Now everything that should be done has been done, and there is no point in waiting any longer… In this case, let’s take the initiative!”
Hozuki Shingetsu turned around and looked at the location of Konoha in the west, with a fierce look on his face.
“After 24 years, the plan to unify the ninja world has finally become a reality… Then it’s time to start with Konoha!”
