Scourge of Naruto - Chapter 681

c690 Backstory 1

More than a month has passed since the end of the fourth Shinobi War.

The villages suffered heavy losses. Compared with the previous Ninja Wars, the Fourth Ninja War rooted the cruelty of war in the people of each village in a more intuitive way.

Konoha is lucky, because most of the people revived by Ye Zi using the reincarnation technique are from Konoha. Therefore, after the four battles, Konoha is still the strongest ninja village.

After more than a month, Konoha’s reconstruction work has finally achieved significant results. The buildings in each block have been basically completed. What is left is to improve the details, such as street lights and greening. However, insufficient funds are a serious problem.

Many wars have consumed a lot of funds from the great powers. Compared with usual, the funds supported by the great powers have been greatly weakened. In addition, Konoha’s finances have been severely tested due to the need for reconstruction.

For this reason, not only Minato but also many people were worried.

“Jiraiya-sensei, ugh.”

At his desk, Minato covered his forehead and sighed, thinking of Jiraiya’s innocent expression of pursuing his dreams when he left the village a few days ago.

Well, as expected of Jiraiya-sensei, he can pretend so well that there is no trace of it.

It’s just for laziness, and that crucial reason…

Thinking of this, Minato felt sorry for Mr. Jiraiya again. After all, Tsunade-sama’s wedding was coming soon.

While he felt sorry for Mr. Jiraiya, Minato couldn’t help but feel sorry for himself. After all, like Mr. Jiraiya, he fell in love with someone who could not catch up no matter how hard he tried.

The only reason why he should be happy is that Jiraiya-sensei has no chance at all, and he still can’t tell for sure.

“Bang!”

The door suddenly opened, and Nara Shikaku walked in with a stack of information.

Minato looked at the tall pile of information in Shikaku’s hand, and his eyes suddenly became round.

Shikaku walked to the desk, but found to his embarrassment that there was no place to put it on the desk.

“Shikaku, although it’s a good thing to get so many tasks, the village doesn’t have enough manpower right now.” Minato rubbed the sun, not sure whether he should be happy or sad.

The village reconstruction work requires a large amount of funds, and a large sum of money needs to be filled in basically every day, so all available manpower must be mobilized to perform the task, but the task is not that easy. After all, every ninja village now lacks Money, so everyone is rushing for tasks.

Shikaku is very capable and always has a way to grab a lot of tasks, but he is really greedy and accepts tasks as long as they are profitable, which leads to serious stagnation of many tasks. In order to maximize the value of his manpower, he consumes a lot of mental energy. Very serious.

It is necessary to put the right people into the right tasks to maximize the timeliness. Secondly, it is necessary to construct an interlocking cycle. It is also necessary to rank the difficulty of many tasks and arrange the order…

Among so many tasks, only the tasks in the Kingdom of Whirlpool do not require a lot of thinking.

“I know too, but now the competition is fierce, I would rather delay than let go.” Shikaku said seriously.

Minato sighed quietly, and his thoughts turned to the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

After the Ninja War, although the major Ninja villages knew the cause and effect, they still did not want to let go of Orochimaru and others. Thanks to the good deeds Ye Zi did before his death, many of his companions were resurrected.

Therefore, except for the Leaf Village, the other ninja villages gritted their teeth and gathered a group of troops and sent them to the country of Taki to attack Orochimaru. However, the terrain of the country of Taki was easy to defend and difficult to attack, making it difficult for the major ninja villages to succeed.

Although he couldn’t attack for a long time, it still made Orochimaru quite uncomfortable.

Although the Snake Team members in the stronghold are all good players, Orochimaru, who promised Ye Zi to take good care of the Snake Team, did not let the Snake Team members go into battle. This was done to avoid casualties, but Orochimaru shouldered all the pressure alone, resulting in this The battle was at a disadvantage until…that man appeared again.

“call…”

Thinking of this, Minato’s expression suddenly became complicated.

“What’s wrong?” Shikaku noticed something strange about Minato and asked immediately.

“No.” Minato shook his head, threw out the thoughts in his mind, and then asked: “How is the progress of the Uzumaki Country mission that Kushina is responsible for?”

After hearing this, Shikaku immediately replied: “It will take about half a month, and I should be back in time to attend Tsunade-sama’s wedding.”

After saying this, Lu Jiu’s expression became slightly complicated, and he sighed: “Thanks to the mission issued by the Kingdom of Whirlpool, otherwise the funding gap would not be so easy to fill.”

Minato sighed, this can be regarded as acknowledgment of love, who asked other ninja villages to seek death, and to find trouble with Orochimaru in the current period of urgent need for development, forget it, who would have thought that Ye Zi was resurrected , no, it should be said that he is back.

Regarding that battle, since Konoha did not participate, the information obtained was limited. The only thing that is certain is that…the elite coalition army of more than 5,000 people was “annihilated” by Ye Zi in one encounter.

With just one face-to-face meeting, it can be said that five thousand elites were killed without any effort. The most important thing is that none of the five thousand elites died.

Perhaps it was because Ye Zi had restrained his murderous intentions, but in that battle, he did not harm anyone’s life, but only repelled them with overwhelming strength.

After that incident, the major ninja villages became shrunk turtles, which must have left a terrible shadow.

To put it bluntly, Ye Zi, who has the Rinnegan Eye and controls eight tailed beasts, can easily destroy any ninja village now, including Konoha, but Ye Zi did not pursue the matter and made a big move.

Moving the base from Takino Country to the ruins of the extinct Uzumaki Country, and restoring the name of Uzumaki Country, it can be considered that Ye Zi established a country.

Later, with the help of Muzi, the leader of the Yunhe clan in the Country of Fire, he issued a long-term mission.

The content of the mission is very simple, that is, to assist and protect Muzi in transporting a large amount of supplies to the Kingdom of Whirlpool. The reward for the mission has reached S level, which can be said to be a wealthy and the most profitable mission in history.

To a certain extent, this was entirely a matter of sending money, and this task was led by Kushina.

Yunhe Muzi, the wife of the former Fire Country daimyo, divorced peacefully from the Fire Country daimyo for unknown reasons. Later, as the head of the Yunhe family, she began to carry out drastic reforms in the Yunhe family’s industry. , moved to the electronics industry.

Regarding this money-sending mission, Minato was still very grateful to Muzi. You must know that this kind of long-term S-level mission is rare, and it only requires a small team to complete it. It is said to be rare in a thousand years. exaggerate.

For example, the reward for completing Muzi’s task is worth most of the task information on the table.

If Minato knew that Ye Zi used an illusion to get a lot of S-level mission rewards from Mu Zi, he would probably vomit a liter of blood, because he was simply obsessed with money at this time.

Instead of continuing to think wildly, he and Shikaku put into a lot of work.

The reconstruction progress will be accelerated. After all, there will be a major happy event at the end of the month, which is the wedding of several newlyweds.

……………………

In the Kingdom of Whirlpool, an epoch-making wooden village is rising.
