Chapter 97 The Way of Peace (Part )

"There are too many ninjas and resources are unevenly distributed. The per capita income of ninjas has decreased, which has led to them having to do more missions to survive."

"But there are only so many missions in each country. After completing the domestic missions, we can only do foreign missions to make a living."

"For example, the nobles of the Wind Country like to let Konoha's ninja take over their missions."

"This behavior exacerbated the conflicts between the ninja villages. Coupled with the imbalance of resources among the countries and the hatred that had already formed, the war broke out."

"Think about it, the Fire Nation is vast and rich in resources. Its food production alone can supply several surrounding countries."

"For example, the Wave Country is close to the sea and has many mountains and insufficient arable land, but it can rely on importing food from the Fire Country to sustain the lives of its people."

"For example, the Rain Country has almost no arable land, but it also feeds almost the entire country's population."

"And the Kingdom of Wind is full of yellow sand and is barren."

"The Land of Earth has a lot of loess, so there isn't a lot of land suitable for farming."

"The country of thunder is mountainous, and the arable land is even less."

"As for the overseas water country, it is foggy, the sun is not abundant, and the food production is insufficient."

"Think about it carefully. The Fire Nation is such a big piece of meat right at your fingertips. Who wouldn't want to take a bite?"

Yahiko and the other two listened thoughtfully, but a question came to their minds.

"Haneda, doesn't Konoha win every war? Why do wars still break out?" Yahiko asked.

"You've got one thing wrong, Yahiko. There are no winners in war."

Haneda said calmly.

He drank some water to moisten his throat, and then said:

"If we go back to the beginning, the number of ninjas and the number of missions."

"The number of missions per country each year does not change much overall, and the demand is only so much."

"When a war breaks out, the number of ninjas in each country will drop significantly, which means that the number of missions that ninjas can accept will increase, and there may even be an overflow of missions."

"In this situation, the ninjas will naturally not worry about their livelihoods. Each country will do its own tasks, and conflicts will naturally decrease."

"In addition, the major ninja villages were less likely to start a war in order to recuperate, so a brief peace appeared."

"But the imbalance of resources still exists. That is, the Wind Kingdom, the Earth Kingdom, the Thunder Kingdom, and the Water Kingdom all want to take a bite of the Fire Kingdom."

"In this way, the arms war has begun invisibly."

"The major ninja villages train more ninjas for their own development so that they can surpass other major powers militarily and invade them."

"And for their own safety, the other ninja villages had no choice but to follow suit."

"The result is that the number of ninjas is growing rapidly, while the per capita income level is declining."

"In order to make a living, the lower-level ninjas had to do more missions, while the higher-level ninjas wanted the village to develop and tried to launch an invasion. So the two of them clashed and the war broke out."

"This is the underlying logic and has nothing to do with the outcome of the war."

When Haneda finished speaking, Yahiko, Konan and Nagato were stunned.

What about the lower-level ninjas doing missions to make a living, what about the uneven distribution of resources, what about the higher-level ninjas wanting the village to develop...

They could understand each word individually, but were confused when they were put together.

To be honest, it's really hard to talk about this to a group of people who are learning to kill.

Just like liberal arts students learn science, sports students sit in the classroom and study.

But even though they didn't understand, they were still shocked in their hearts.

And the more I think about what Haneda said, the more I feel that he is right.

As long as this underlying logic exists, war is bound to break out!

Just like now, Sand Village and Konoha are confronting each other at the border of Rain Country.

On the surface, the Third Kazekage disappeared, but in reality, the daimyo cut military spending and the number of ninjas increased. In order to ease domestic conflicts, the Sunagakure high-level officials had no choice but to start a war.

By the way, the war was used to select and establish the prestige of the Fourth Kazekage.

"Then how can we completely end the war and achieve peace?" Yahiko looked into Haneda's eyes and asked very seriously.

"As I said, as long as there is only one country and the writing system is the same and the wheels are the same, war will never break out. Only secondary conflicts will occur," said Haneda.

Yahiko felt that there was almost no hope of unifying the ninja world.

He wanted peace in the ninja world so much, so he asked pleadingly:

"Is there no other way, Haneda?"

Haneda said: "Like what the First Daime did, distribute weapons of mass destruction, and deter each other among countries, so that they dare not start a war."

"But the key point is that there are no lethal weapons in the ninja world that can make all countries fear each other, let alone the tailed beasts. The tailed beasts are nothing at all."

"But in this case, if the big countries have lethal weapons and the small countries do not, then the struggle between the big countries will be staged in the small countries again."

“Local wars still exist, but their scope has been reduced a lot.”

It's an unrealistic idea...

Yahiko sighed. Both methods given by Haneda made sense, but the reality was...

hey~

All I can say is that dreams are out of reach.

But is this really the case?

Yahiko's gaze turned to Nagato, his Sage Eyes, the child of prophecy that even Sensei Jiraiya believed in.

Yahiko clenched his fists and smiled confidently:

“As long as you can see the road clearly and the road still exists, you will definitely reach the end!”

After saying this, he turned his gaze to Haneda again:

"Thank you, Haneda, for helping me see the path to peace."

Haneda smiled faintly.

There are many things that he hasn't said yet, but he has hinted at them, but Yahiko and the others didn't seem to hear them.

That is, even if there is peace in the ninja world, conflicts will still break out.

As long as the ninja system still exists.

This conflict will take the form of a conflict between ordinary people and ninjas.

But what does this have to do with me?

Compared to Yahiko's dream of achieving peace in the ninja world, Haneda's dream is just to protect the people he wants to protect.

Konan and Nagato looked at Yahiko's sunny, cheerful and positive appearance, and sincerely believed that he would definitely achieve peace in the ninja world.

And Haneda is undoubtedly a beacon of peace.

[Ding! Yahiko's impression +13]

[Ding! Yahiko's impression +15]

[Ding! Xiaonan's impression +17]

[Ding! Nagato's impression +12]

……

[Host's favorability with Yahiko reaches 141, obtains 0.3 card of chakra, Chunin-level water escape comprehension, water escape - water chaos, partial Samsara eye pupil power]

[Host and Konan's favorability reaches 123, gain 0.2 card of chakra, and experience in developing Paper Style]

[Host's favorability with Nagato reaches 89, gaining 0.6 card of chakra and part of the power of the Samsara Eye]

(Note: The quality of the Rinnegan pupil power is higher than that of the Sharingan pupil power, and can be used to promote the evolution of the Sharingan)

Can Yahiko also obtain the power of the Rinnegan?

Does it count if the corpse is made into a super brother?

Haneda ignored Konan and looked directly at Nagato, who had the lowest favorability, but gave good benefits.

He secretly guessed that at least half of the reason why Nagato's favorability improved was because of Yahiko and Konan.

The love for the person and the theory he put forward contributed to the increase in his favorability.

I have to say, it is very difficult to get into the heart of a shy and autistic boy.
