Chapter 389: The Rock Village May Have to Start a War

He would also have wild thoughts and wonder if there was any conspiracy behind this.

For example, the village wants them to die, and other strange ideas like that.

If we put aside the possibility that children speak without restraint and that they speak nonsense due to nervousness, and since more than one child said this, they must have been influenced.

This is worth checking.

Although espionage has been repeatedly banned and has continued to occur, batch after batch has been investigated and arrested, but those who should be investigated still have to be investigated, and those who should be arrested still have to be arrested.

If left unchecked for a long time, it will definitely cause some big trouble.

"Yes, my lord assists."

The Anbu ninja took the order and began to arrange the investigation mission.

What Yan didn't expect was that through the investigation of the Anbu, a group of spies were actually implicated.

In just a few days, many people were arrested.

When the identity list was sent to Yan, his eyelids twitched and he couldn't help but exclaimed, "Wow!"

I just asked the Anbu to investigate just in case, but ended up uncovering a nest of spies?

It’s right to think about it!

After all, who among the people of Konoha would have nothing better to do than instill in their children the idea that after graduation they have to go to the battlefield and that graduation means sacrifice and death?

Only spies like to do this, to mislead people while collecting and spying on intelligence.

"You sent people to capture a lot of spies?"

Tsunade wouldn't care too much about catching a few spies.

But after just a few days, they arrested more than a dozen people, which was a bit strange, even though they were all ordinary spies.

Just then, Tsunade ran to Yan's office.

"If I say this is all a misunderstanding, do you believe me?"

Not to mention Tsunade, even Yan himself was a little confused.

I just wanted to be on the safe side and prevent the new generation of the village from being led astray, so I made a special effort to check it out. As expected, I found out a lot of information.

Although they are all ordinary spies, it is not easy for ordinary spies to successfully take root in Konoha.

Catching more than a dozen people at once can be said to be a major loss to the espionage industry.

Yan told Tsunade what happened in the ninja school, and Tsunade looked at him strangely after listening.

After hesitating for a moment, Tsunade teased him directly:

"I think you could pay more attention. Who knows, you might be able to wipe out all the spies in the village."

An unintentional act could have led to the arrest of so many people. If a thorough investigation was conducted, would there still be spies able to take root in Konoha?

You really dare to think so!

Yan was so speechless that he was completely speechless.

The reason why so many spies were caught at once is that education is the foundation, so it is easy to be targeted by spies.

If you try other departments, I guarantee that you may not be able to catch one or two spies even after a thorough investigation.

"Tsk, the Cloud Ninja Village is really a thief with a will."

After looking at the information of these spies, Tsunade snorted unhappily:

"It seems that we need to take this issue seriously. The fact that they sent so many spies here shows that the Cloud Ninja Village is still keeping an eye on us.

They wouldn't mind starting a war if they were given the chance."

More than a dozen spies were captured, and more than half of them were from the Cloud Ninja Village. How could this not make people alert?

Even if these spies were planted during the reign of the Third Hokage, it is enough to show that the Cloud Village has not given up its evil intentions.

Yan didn't care much about this. The Cloud Ninja Village had planted spies in Konoha, and Konoha also had many spies planted in the Cloud Ninja Village.

In comparison, it is easier to plant spies in the Cloud Village than in Konoha. After all, their village's economy relies heavily on tourism and commodity sales.

"We need to be vigilant, for sure, but we don't need to take it seriously, as these spies have been planted for quite some time.

In the past, the Kumogakure would definitely not mind fighting us, but now, the possibility is very small."

"Oh?"

Tsunade was a little surprised:

"Are you so sure that the Kumogakure won't attack the village?"

if not?

Yan spread his hands:

“The Raikage just has a bad temper, that doesn’t mean he’s stupid, if we’re weak, he definitely wouldn’t mind taking action.

If we are too strong, even the hot-tempered Raikage will become docile.

And the Kumogakure Village takes the existence of Akatsuki organization more seriously than we do, so I conclude that the possibility of the Kumogakure Village launching a war against the village is too small."

"It is the Iwagakure that needs attention."

"Why? Ohnoki's ambition should not be as big as the Raikage's. Compared with the more powerful Kumogakure, the Iwagakure should not be so stupid."

"What if he has to fight?"

"What do you mean?"

"See for yourself."

Yan handed the information he had sorted out to Tsunade, who took the information and read it carefully, full of doubts.

In her opinion, the probability of the Iwagakure attacking Konoha is much lower than that of the Kumogakure, mainly because the Kumogakure is extremely powerful both economically and militarily.

It is precisely because they have enough confidence that the Cloud Ninja Village dares to attack Konoha.

On the contrary, the Iwagakure is somewhat lacking.

It’s not that the Iwagakure is not strong, it’s just that compared to the Kumogakure, the Iwagakure is somewhat inferior.

The information compiled by Yan recorded in detail the economic, military and other power distribution of the Iwagakure and Kumogakure.

In terms of military strength, the Cloud Village is slightly stronger than the Iwagakure. If we follow the official star rating given by Naruto, then the military strength and economy of the Cloud Village are both at five-star level.

The military strength of the Iwagakure is only four stars, and its economy is even worse, only three stars.

On the other hand, Konoha's military strength can also reach five stars. If some trump cards are added, it can even reach six stars, or even exceed six stars. As for the economy, it is barely four stars.

“The statistics are pretty good.”

Looking at the information in her hand, Tsunade couldn't help but give Yan a look of praise.

"Although the summary is a little unclear, the statistics are very good. Compared with the Cloud Village, the overall strength of the Rock Village is a bit weaker."

"Plus this one."

Yan handed the last piece of information to Tsunade, who took a glance at it and her expression changed immediately.

Because the information collected tonight was about the proportion of military expenditure and population ratio of the three villages of Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Konoha.

In terms of the ratio of expenditure on military development, Konoha spent the least, Iwagakure was second, and Kumogakure was first.

In terms of total population and proportion of ninjas, Konoha ranks first, Kumogakure ranks second, and Iwagakure ranks third.

If you only look at the military strength and economy, you still can't see the problem, but adding this information is enough to explain the problem.

The problems in Iwagakure are too huge.

Can you imagine that the Iwagakure, a village with a medium population and a medium economy, ranks first in terms of expenditure ratio on military development?

"Iwagakure's spending on military development is a bit biased, even a bit distorted."

Tsunade had to admit that the development model of Iwagakure was flawed.

"You are right. This military development model does make the Iwagakure look very powerful, but their own economy cannot support it for too long. If it continues for a long time, there will definitely be problems."
