Chapter 988 Promotion

In the late winter in Sunagakure Village, the midday sun no longer feels hot, and the coolness in the morning and evening has begun to refresh the heart.

After the sun set, gusts of cool breeze blew in, causing people walking on the spacious street to tighten their sleeves and collars.

It was time for school to end at the Sunagakure Village Ninja School. The students who walked out of the new school building also felt the coming severe cold in the Land of Wind.

The students of Sunagakure Village who are accustomed to the huge temperature difference between day and night are okay, but the new generation of Konoha sprouts who come here as exchange students will undoubtedly have a less wonderful experience.

"Konohamaru, I feel a little homesick. When will this exchange program end?"

As a girl, Menghuang can better understand the power of the wind and sand in this country. The delicate skin that was originally full of elasticity has also suffered a lot of damage. If you don't pay attention to care and don't pay attention to applying skin care products, your lips will be damaged the next day. They will all crack until they bleed.

"It's almost time. We will be able to return around the 10th of next month. We should be able to catch up with the New Year's temple fair..."

The grandson of the Hokage Sandaime family, who also felt a little tired, no longer had the innocence he had two years ago. The childishness on his face remained the same, but his eyes became much firmer.

Together with Udon, the three-person team actually does not need to be exchange students at all. The Konoha Ninja School has enough resources for their growth.

This year is the second full year of in-depth cooperation between Sunagakure Village and Konoha Village. Last year's joint teaching activities were very effective and well received, so this year's quota has begun to attract attention.

After getting some information about Sunagakure Village from his uncle Sarutobi Asuma, Konohamaru, who had never left Konoha Village and had not seen much, finally decided to come to a country thousands of miles away to see the world.

Unfortunately, this year is special. Sand Hidden Village experienced an attack by the "Akatsuki" organization. Although the casualties were not large, the village was severely damaged, which naturally affected the teaching of the ninja school.

The Konoha reserve ninjas who were a little frightened performed fairly well, but the time to return to Konoha Village was undoubtedly delayed compared to last year.

Udon couldn't help but sneeze a few times due to the cool breeze, dragging his nose and saying with a slightly bitter face:

"When spring comes, there are sandstorms every now and then. In summer, it's so hot that eggs can be boiled on the ground. In autumn, it's okay. The temperature changes greatly. Just pay attention to adding or removing clothes. In winter, it's so cold that people don't want to go out. I really don't want to be here. Stay a little longer..."

No wonder Udon complained, as the weather gets colder and late at night, children who can't stand the dry weather here may have their noses frozen into balls if they go out for a long time.

And this is not the coldest time in Sand Hidden Village.

The difference between a place with cold wind, neither rain, nor ice or snow, and a peaceful and sunny Konoha Village with four distinct seasons is really huge.

Fortunately, the energy supply in Shayin Village is relatively abundant. Although the dilemma of fresh water resource shortage has not been fundamentally alleviated, after the multi-stage flash evaporation technology matured, the recycling efficiency of water resources in the village has been greatly improved.

What makes the villagers most satisfied is that most of them can finally eat hot meals and drink clear, cold boiled water.

People living in modern society may not realize the importance of eating cooked food and drinking boiled water. Just by popularizing the daily necessity of heating the food in the stomach can almost prevent more than 90% of the patients. , to minimize the possibility of a plague.

Don't underestimate this seemingly simple act. In Daimaru's previous life, until the millennium, there were many poor villagers in vast remote rural areas who were reluctant to give up the money for firewood and drank raw water.

What's more, in an isolated desert village with almost no wood available and only relying on sporadic coal for support, it is good to have food and drink, and hot meals and dishes, which can only be enjoyed by families with mines at home.

Last year, the exchange students who came to Konoha Village had not yet experienced the huge changes in Sunagakure Village. Konohamaru and others who arrived at the beginning of this year and will leave at the end of the year still deeply realized that Sunagakure Village had made a huge leap this year. progress.

In this village that is very different from my hometown, there may not be that many ninjas, the teachers in the ninja school are not that knowledgeable, and there are not many teachers and students with good tempers from top to bottom, but the thriving vitality is still the same. .

After returning to the dormitory specially prepared for these exchange students, the three of them gathered together to complete the homework assigned by the school today. After a long time, they ordered some takeaways to be delivered, and the three of them sat relaxedly in the living room.

Not only them, but also the exchange students from the same village in groups of three or three, also greeted Konohamaru, a popular student in the same grade, familiarly.

Among them, there are also some who have been invited by the students of Sunagakure Village to go out for fun. After the expansion of Sunagakure Village, the side of the two gates at the southeast and southwest corners and the three nearby streets are designated commercial areas. Every evening, As long as the wind and sand are not too strong and the weather is not so bad that people cannot go out, it is always very lively there, especially the brightly lit theater section, which has the aura of a city that never sleeps. Even the children of Konoha, who have seen the bustling Konoha Village, Also breathtaking.

"How about we go and have a look? I heard there will be a light show in the next two days..."

Due to objective reasons, outdoor activities in Sunagakure Village are subject to weather conditions and do not happen every day. Konohamaru and Udon are not unmoved by Menghuang's suggestion, but they are not that strong in their thoughts.

After hesitating for a moment, Konohamaru, the leader of the three, shook his head and refused:

"There is a lot of classwork these two days, and there will be a practical training tomorrow. If we play too late, it will be bad if it affects tomorrow's competition. We can't let Suna Ninja underestimate us Konoha Ninjas when we are away from home..."

In the past, the boy who acted recklessly in Konoha Village has now learned restraint and tolerance, and the rewards gained from traveling thousands of miles are indeed far beyond imagination.

At the same time, in the busy commercial district of Sunagakure Village, dozens of screens and stages were showing different performances in the theaters and studios.

Because it has not yet been fully constructed and renovated, it is estimated that the capacity will be nearly tripled when it is fully opened.

For a small town with hundreds of thousands of people today, this is obviously a bit redundant. Only when Sand Hidden Village reaches the size envisioned and most residents have free time to entertain themselves can it be able to match this kind of situation. Too much advance construction.

This action is of course not the result of Daimaru having too much money and desperately spending it, but to prepare for the complete integration of Naruto Village, Awaji Village and Sunagakure Village.

Today's Sunagakure Village must take into account two huge subsidiary villages. Many of the seemingly empty and redundant settings are to reserve space for the future.

In addition, there is also a hidden arrangement that is not known to outsiders.

Among the crowds of merchants and tourists from all over the shinobi world who came to do business in Sunagakure Village, Miss Sana, who had been depressed for a while after failing the chunin exam, was practicing hard, holding her arms in a loose hakama robe. Xiao Xiyan, who was so overwhelmed, rarely came out to relax.

Miss Saya, who was finally pulled out, and Jin, who rarely appeared in front of people, came to see the entertainment area built by her family, United Daimaru, which they had spent a lot of money to build.

After material life gradually improved, cultural entertainment, which originally had little market, began to receive attention.

Not only Daimaru thought of using this newly emerged tool to serve himself, but many scheming faction leaders who had been based in Sunagakure Village for many years also realized the importance of grasping the propaganda channels and the right to speak.

With so many theaters, it is of course impossible to only screen plays such as "The Tale of Bamboo" and "The Journey of Urashima Taro Ryugu" written by Daimaru. Works by Fuji Fukitsue such as "The Princess of the Wind" are also very popular, and many There is also a market for puppet plays based on the ancient heroes of Sand Hidden Village.

Nowadays, ordinary people in Sunagakure Village who have not seen much have no artistic vision and appreciation ability, and there are not many options. They basically watch whatever is shown, which is better than a long night with nothing going on and just turning off the lights. Sleeping all the way was much better.

Of course, sisters Saya and Shanai are not here just for fun. Whenever the "artificial elves" perform a new play for the first time, they will come to cheer for the little ones.

While there was a hustle and bustle below, from the spiritual space, he looked down at Daimaru here and asked Fuyi beside him:

"How to absorb those people's complex thoughts and use them for my own purposes is not the first priority. The most important thing is to be hidden and not interfere with everyone's daily life..."

The senior who hasn’t had much sense of presence for a while said:

"Are you afraid that these people have ideas? Don't worry, the barrier I have set up is quite stable. As long as no one notices it at the beginning, no one will be able to find any clues as it runs for a long time..."

"You have to be careful..."

Daimaru sighed,

"Since we use this method, we must consider the possibility of being used to counterattack..."

Even if they are all useless mental thoughts that will naturally disperse in the air, if they are gathered together, they are a force that cannot be ignored.

Each theater is actually a simple shrine and altar. Under the arrangement of the barrier master Fu Yi, the improved techniques are imperceptibly walking throughout the newly built Sunagakure Village. The crowded theater area is actually a sacrificial ceremony. Field facelift variant.

Here is the energy center and exchange node between the "Cradle Garden" covered by the entire Sand Hidden Village formation and the real world.

Since it is to be developed into the spiritual holy land of the "Puppet Heaven", it is necessary to open up a spiritual channel in the ninja world and the "Cradle Garden". It cannot be that everyone who needs in-depth communication in the future must be led by Daimaru himself. Follow it in and out!

In addition, Miss Saya has deployed a large number of ninjas to provide chakra to the "Cradle Garden" day and night to support its existence and maintain the growth of "artificial elves". However, this has a limit. A large number of ninjas are regarded as pure "Chakra". "Carat battery" is still too wasteful, and it is better to tie them deeply to Sunagakure Village. As long as the village develops and grows, the foundation will be deeper and the "cradle garden" will be more stable. The day when Sunagakure Village will be ruined will naturally herald " The Decline of the Cradle Garden.

This path of symbiosis between one body and two sides was something Daimaru decided upon after considering it for a long time.

It is naturally good to be closely connected to the ninja world but independent of each other like Mt. Myoboku, but Daimaru worked so hard to build a heritage holy land unique to Suna ninja just for this pursuit?

If this is really the case, it would be better to build a relationship with Jiraiya and support Myobokuyama's stinky feet, or start with Orochimaru, Yakushi Kabuto or Uchiha Sasuke, and try his luck in Ryūchi Cave.

What's more, the "cradle garden" and "artificial elves" that were created out of nothing are like flowers in a mirror or the moon in the water. They have no physical existence in the ninja world. It is necessary to have a solid backing to make their foundation stable.

Having discussed this with Daimaru several times, Fuyi, who was still shocked by his fantastic ideas, could not refute:

"The young man's heart is too big, I hope you won't go astray! This is all I can do to help you. After all, I am just a dead person who has not yet died completely. Maybe one day my soul will go to the Pure Land. Unfortunately, you imagine I guess I can’t see what the future will be like…”

"There is still hope..."

"Maybe! What are you going to do next?"

"The first batch of puppet breeding equipment has been released. The 'Pretender' model currently on Gaara is very stable, but it is too strong and not representative. The performance of the 'Aerial Overlord' on my teammate Nighteye is also very good……"

"Just two cases? Is it too hasty..."

"Can't wait, senior..."

Daimaru shook his head helplessly. The potential is greater, but the "Puppet Apostle" that works for a longer time is still under internal testing. Although the effect is also very good, the Fourth Ninja World War is just around the corner, and the time is ripe. No, I just may not be able to make the trip.

"Improving combat effectiveness and survival rate will be the top priority for Sand Ninjas in preparing for war..."

"The Kingdom of Rain, can't wait anymore?"

"There are still two years at most. There is no time to dilly-dally. It would be nice to have another ten or eight years. Even if it doesn't work, five years will do..."

In the past, Daimaru was still hesitating whether to kill a lone tailed beast and buy another two or three years. Until some time ago, Daimaru witnessed Uchiha Sasuke cultivating the sage mode, and the reincarnation chakra of Indra in his body was still Become active and react.

Killing a tailed beast is useless unless you kill Uzumaki Naruto or crush Uchiha Sasuke's Sharingan.

By tampering with the tailed beasts and jinchūriki, the backlash from fate will be deeper in the future, and the consequences will probably be even worse.

For example, now, due to different changes on Orochimaru's side and those in his memory, the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, has escaped from the Shinigami. The Yin Nine Tails sealed in his body is a big bomb that will explode at some point.

Kaguya Otsutsuki is not the only one in the Otsutsuki tribe. What if Otsutsuki Toneri on the moon really feels that the ninja world is in chaos and there is no cure, so he drives the moon to hit the ninja world and destroy it?

Some people are watching how the descendants of the Six Paths Sage save the world. If they mess up, there might be a big "surprise".
