Chapter 5 Good Man Danzo

"Lord Raikage, the strategy we set before is no longer suitable."

Tottori's face became more serious. They had already set strategic goals for the upcoming Ninja World War, and there would be no shortage of sacrifices.

But the emergence of that kind of firearm now gave them a better choice.

"It is indeed not suitable!"

The third generation Raikage also understood this and had to change it.

"And that kind of firearm has very low conditions for use. Anyone who has slightly refined chakra can use it, and it can be mass-produced with sufficient resources and manpower.

I am afraid that the daimyo will have some ideas..."

Tottori stopped talking here. This was not something he could decide, and Lord Raikage had to decide.

The third generation Raikage looked more and more solemn, thinking about the pros and cons, and spoke after a while.

"Back then, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha established the Hidden Leaf Village with absolute strength, opening the era of ninja villages.

Our Daimyo of the Land of Lightning was forced to support the establishment of the Hidden Cloud Village, and was more afraid of our ninja village..."

The Third Raikage had a complicated expression while talking about what happened back then.

He had experienced the Warring States Period and witnessed the beginning of the era of ninja villages. At the same time, he also understood the many problems between ninja villages and Daimyo Prefecture.

To be honest, he couldn't figure out why the First Hokage would establish such a weird system, which made Daimyo Prefecture and their ninja villages very embarrassed with each other.

And at that time, both the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha had god-like power, and the First Hokage was also called the God of Ninjas, not to mention that the two of them joined forces, which was enough to sweep the entire world and unify the entire ninja world, so there would be no more wars.

The four major ninja villages only dared to launch the Ninja World War after the death of the First Hokage, and the outbreak of the Ninja World War also proved the error of the Ninja Village system.

Now the Second Ninja World War has already shown signs, and there will definitely be more in the future. Such wars continue, and the pain they bring is, to some extent, worse than the Warring States period, and the scale of the war is also expanding.

Although there are conflicts between their ninja villages, there is also the secret instigation of the daimyo's mansion.

If possible, the daimyo and many dignitaries would like their ninjas and ninja villages to disappear.

He also knows this very well. In the past, the daimyo's mansion was also very strict in the financial allocation to the village, just not wanting their ninja villages to grow.

Both of them were embarrassed about this, and they were also wary of each other.

But the ninja village system has been formed and checks and balances have been established. They are powerless to change, but now they see an opportunity, an opportunity that cannot be missed.

"If only one of the daimyo's mansion and the village can exist, I naturally hope that the village will be the only one."

At the end, the third generation Raikage looked more resolute and decisive.

He is the Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village, and he stands on the side of the village. This is the most fundamental position and will never change!

Tutai was not surprised by the decision of the Third Raikage. This was the Third Hokage he knew.

"Then the development of firearms needs to be kept more secret. It is definitely not possible to leave it in the village. I am afraid it has to be moved to Turtle Island. The staff must be absolutely trustworthy. It is better to have less than less."

Tutai talked about the confidentiality measures for the development of firearms, hoping to put it on Turtle Island.

Turtle Island is formed by a huge sea turtle. It can move freely on the sea and even dive into the sea. It is very hidden and very suitable for this kind of top-secret research.

"You will arrange this matter!"

The Third Raikage approved this proposal. This matter really needs absolute confidentiality and no leakage at all.

"And the ideas he proposed are not easy to realize, and they must be assisted by comprehensive sealing techniques."

Tutai talked about the development of firearms. It is definitely not possible with the existing foundation of their Hidden Cloud Village, mainly because they have no foundation in this area.

"Then increase the investment in the Whirlpool Country plan. I will lead the team there personally."

The Third Raikage agreed with him and understood that Tutai was talking about the Whirlpool Clan of the Whirlpool Country.

They originally wanted to attack the Whirlpool Country in order to obtain a high-level sealing technique to complete the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki plan.

The end of the First Ninja World War was due to the wife of the First Hokage. The other party showed a terrifying destructive power in the form of Tailed Beast Jinchuriki that was not inferior to the First Hokage.

After seeing the power of the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, all the major ninja villages were interested in it.

Although they bought the Tailed Beast from Konoha at the first Five Kage Conference, the Tailed Beast could not be tamed at all, let alone effectively used.

On the contrary, they were also tied up by the Tailed Beast to take care of a large part of their power. If the Tailed Beast ran away, it would cause huge losses.

They have been distressed about this, and the wife of the First Hokage gave them an idea.

It turns out that the Tailed Beast can be used in that way!

It’s just that it’s not easy to seal the Tailed Beast for a long time and stably. It requires top-level sealing techniques to assist. In the Ninja World, only the Uzumaki clan has the strongest sealing technique.

The wife of the first Hokage is a member of the Uzumaki clan and the strongest person. She can even control and use the strongest Nine-Tails, which shows how powerful her sealing technique is.

"According to the information we have obtained, the third Hokage of Konoha has sent people to invite the Uzumaki clan to join Konoha three times. The wife of the first Hokage is old, and it must be very difficult to suppress the Nine-Tails now. His patience should have run out."

Touchai revealed a piece of information and had a new idea about the strategy for the Whirlpool Country.

The third Raikage didn't say much, waiting for Touchai's next words.

Touchai did not keep the secret and continued: "Sealing techniques are not easy to learn or use, and most of the high-level sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan are developed based on their own characteristics, especially the consumption of chakra is amazing.

If we want to make better use of sealing techniques, we need to get the Uzumaki clan, and if we want to get the Uzumaki clan, we must find an opportunity to sever the ties with Konoha.

This matter may be able to use the identity of the disciple of Master Raikage to get Konoha to cooperate."

Originally, they just wanted to obtain a sealing technique that could perfectly seal the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails, but now there are higher and more requirements, and the goal must be expanded.

"You arrange it!"

The Third Raikage understood and handed the matter to Touchai.

Although Touchai is young, he is very good in wisdom and strategy, and he is also his confidant, so he is most suitable for doing these things.

"Do you think the idea of ​​these firearms is related to Shimura Danzo and Konoha?"

He suddenly asked. Some things must be guarded against. If these are all Konoha's conspiracies, and Konoha already has a large number of firearms, and they are more advanced and powerful, the next war will inevitably be a disaster for their Cloud Village.

"It is unlikely. Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo are unlikely to have such courage, and we only need to monitor the circulation of steel in various places to confirm it."

Dodai shook his head slightly. He had read the intelligence materials of Konoha's high-level officials. Except for Shimura Danzo's radical thinking, the others were conservative.

And Konoha was not calm inside.

"That means our Cloud Village has picked up a treasure!"

The Third Raikage laughed again, laughing heartily.

Shimura Danzo is such a good man!
