Chapter 320: Great Reform of the Ninja World
Chapter 320: Great Reform of the Ninja World
The following days began to enter a period of stable development. Both the North and the other ninja villages were secretly accumulating strength.
Since the North formed an alliance with the Iwagakure Village, the economies of both sides have experienced explosive growth.
The most direct manifestation of this phenomenon is that the scale of Beidi Village has now grown to be no worse than that of Konoha, and is even more prosperous.
The village has been connected to trams and buses have also been arranged.
Every household has access to electricity, and we have entered the electrical age.
Iwagakure Village has also undergone tremendous changes. It has a history of hundreds of years and abundant accumulated resources. It only lacks the motivation for reform.
After the two villages opened up to trade, the wealth of the villages began to circulate, and Ohnoki was surprised to find that his own funds not only did not decrease but increased.
Moreover, the lives of the villagers are getting better and better. For Ohnoki, who is only focused on developing ninjas and has never thought about developing the villagers, this situation is simply a pleasant surprise.
Because his policies have improved people's livelihood, the people's love and support for him have reached a new level.
The other ninja villages seemed to have noticed the benefits that the North brought to the Iwagakure Village, and each of them wanted to strengthen trade with the North.
Because there was no order from the top, many supplies were limited to other villages, and some technologies were also blocked.
Things like the supply and manufacturing of automobiles, the supply of chakra armor, etc. will only be gradually opened up after in-depth cooperation.
There are many people who have ideas, but few have the courage to take this step. However, there are some.
Tsunade, the fifth Hokage of Konoha Village, expressed her intention to cooperate with the North.
This scene surprised the rest of the ninja villages, because the Land of Fire and the Land of Gold are neighboring countries, and the biggest threat to Konoha is the North.
The fact that Tsunade had the courage to take this step proved that she had changed the direction of her hostility, or changed her policy towards the North, and was trying to cooperate with the other side.
When the cooperation just starts, it will definitely not be as drastic as what the Iwagakure Village did, which was to build tracks, run trains, and connect the two places.
However, it is certain that several roads will be built leading to the North. The first ones put on the agenda are the roads from the Fire Nation's capital to the North and the roads leading to the Gold Nation's capital.
At the same time, the North also agreed to send technicians to help the Fire Nation build local railways.
Of course, the entertainment industry in the North, and the food industry have also settled in the Kingdom of Nations. Konoha's Ichiraku Ramen also opened a branch in the North.
The negotiation of these businesses was handled by Ye Cang and Hongdou, while Konoha Village sent Nara Shikaku and Asuma.
In this way, the two villages began to establish preliminary cooperation. Seeing that Konoha boldly took this step, the other ninja villages became even more eager to move. The first to jump out was not the Land of Lightning and the Land of Wind, but the Land of Water!
The power of the Water Kingdom is now in the hands of the elder master of the Hidden Mist Village.
Ever since Yagura went into seclusion, Yuanshi has taken over the power, but because he is old, he lets Mei Terumi assist him.
The reason why she was able to climb to this position was that after Mei Terumi discovered that Yagura was under an illusion, she led a group of ninjas to suppress the other party, and Kitachi contributed to this.
The Hidden Mist Village has since entered an era without shadows, but the village has just lost its Mizukage, and the impact of the Blood Mist Ritual has not yet passed.
For the sake of the village's stability, the master did not rush to hand over the position of Mizukage to Mei Terumi, but let her take over the power step by step.
"I didn't expect Mei Terumi to be so courageous. It looks like the Hidden Mist Village is about to usher in a new life!"
In Kanekage's office, Hozuki Mangetsu sighed, and beside him were Kisame, Ringo Ayuri and others.
Because Orochimaru was still in seclusion, this general meeting was chaired by Ye Cang. She also wanted to see what these cadres from the Hidden Mist Village thought.
"We had a verbal agreement before that we would cooperate only if we helped each other take the position of Mizukage. Are we rushing into this now?"
Kisame also spoke at the right time, and his words also caused everyone to ponder.
"We are only cooperating with them initially. It will take some time for Mei Terumi to take the position of Mizukage. We cannot ignore their goodwill!"
Ringo Yuuri, who also came from the Hidden Mist Village, also spoke up and said that they were very happy to see cooperation with their former village.
Just like those who travel away from home all hope that their hometown will become better and better, even if they have moved into the city, this original intention has not changed.
"I plan to strengthen the transportation between the two places first. Both sides will set up a shipping company, and the commodity trade between the two places will also be more convenient!"
Seeing that no one else had any objections, Ye Cang also expressed his own opinion.
Apart from the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, no one would have any objections, but Kakuzu still expressed his own views.
"The business has grown, but I'm a little too busy here. I must get an assistant!"
Now he is using his shadow clone to count money, so you can imagine how busy he is at work.
"Don't you enjoy counting money? And you don't let others interfere with your work. What? Do you want to relax now?"
Bai teased his money-grubbing appearance, and everyone smiled when they heard it.
Kakuzu, who was already quite old, did not feel embarrassed at all, but continued to complain:
"If it's just counting money and doing accounts, I can handle it by myself, but I also have to make reports and statistics! I don't even have enough time to count money now, how can I have time to do these!"
After hearing this, the others suddenly realized that it was because too many trivial matters affected his ability to count money.
"Then let's see who here is not busy with work..."
Before Ye Cang finished speaking, everyone rushed to say that they were busy, and finally Bai thought of a suitable candidate.
"We are all busy, why don't we let Xiaoxue or Longshe help you share the burden? It's time for them to take over more work!"
The others' eyes lit up when they heard this. Yes, why didn't they think of that?
Neither of them likes fighting and killing, and they just complete their tasks on time and in quantity every year.
"Sure! I have no objection!"
Kakuzu immediately agreed, and after this episode, they discussed the details of cooperation with the Hidden Mist Village.
Not long after, the North once again reached a cooperation with the Hidden Mist Village, and the Kingdom of Gold and the Kingdom of Water established several large trading ports.
The transportation between the two countries has also been upgraded from small boats to giant ships.
The result of this phenomenon is that the Fire Nation also joined in the cooperation with the Water Nation.
Seeing the clouds moving in all directions, the Thunder Country, which had been isolated in a corner, could no longer sit still and also sent people to negotiate with the North.
Even though they now have close contacts with Konoha, the exchanges between the two places cannot bypass the North.
The Land of Thunder also asked the North to send technicians to build railroads locally, and some unimportant technologies would also be opened up to each other.
It seems that only the Wind Country is staying out of this matter. It's not that they don't want to improve their transportation capabilities like other countries, but the desert area is not suitable for building railways.
However, if the railway cannot be built, we can build more roads. They are indeed doing so. There is no need for the North to intervene in this regard. Konoha can provide assistance.
At this point, the ninja world has ushered in new reforms, and a new pattern has gradually taken shape!
