Chapter 58: Half a Year
In a trance, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye.
In the past six months, the situation in the ninja world has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Half a year ago, Konoha Village, which is ranked first in the ninja world, suddenly underwent a mysterious change, and its strength was greatly damaged after the upheaval.
It is rumored that this upheaval is related to the Hyuga family, and it seems that the Hyuga family intended to seize the power of the Hokage, and was destroyed by the Konoha Shadow Department with the power of thunder. I don't know if this news is true or not, but in short, it gradually spread.
And on the battlefield, Konoha's performance seems to confirm this.
The white eyes that swept through the ninja world in the past and kept the other four ninja villages awake at night have never appeared on the battlefield of the third ninja war!
Hinata's white eyes are responsible for the reconnaissance mission of the Konoha troops, and with the cooperation of the Yamanaka clan, they can easily control the entire battlefield, which is equivalent to playing MOBA games now, and one side of the map is fully bright!
But now, Konoha's eyes have disappeared, the huge information asymmetry between the two sides of the war has been eliminated, and the two sides have been pulled back to the same level in intelligence, and the strength of the army has become the only indicator that determines the outcome of the war.
With the power of Konoha Village, how can it compete with the four major ninja villages? Is there a way to do this? Yes, the popularization of chakra refining techniques, the popularization of ninjutsu, and in five and ten years, one village of Konoha will be enough to fight against the four major ninja villages.
Does Ape Fei dare? Do ninja clans dare? Don't dare, they don't dare.
There is no absolute advantage in the system, even if the three generations of Ape Fei are on the front line, even if the Konoha White Fang, who has died in the original history, is still alive, even if Tsunade broke through the shackles and broke into the Super Shadow due to the mutation half a year ago, even though Konoha is full of talents, it is still difficult to fight against the other four ninja villages. In the past six months, Konoha has experienced the process of stalemate to defeat on the four main battlefields, and there has not been even a good news in the recent period.
At the same time, the meeting between the daimyo of the five great powers was not affected by the war in Shinobu Village, and the five daimyo jointly issued a statement: "The battle in Shinobi Village is their individual behavior, and it will not and should not affect the peaceful coexistence of the five major powers, and the ninja world is only the ninja world, not the world." The five major powers will continue to maintain close cooperation and maintain peaceful and friendly exchanges. ”
The other daimyo of the four countries also expressed their condemnation of Konoha Village, and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire apologized to the other four daimyo with apologies, and at the same time said to the newspaper reporter with a little helplessness: "Ninja Village is a ninja village after all, although I am a daimyo, I don't know their specific actions." For example, the fuse of this war, it is believed that Konoha and the theft of Sand Ninja Village are inseparable, but as a daimyo, I can't know the details at all. I'm ashamed to face the people of the Fire Nation! “
"I think all I can do now is try my best to put an end to Konoha Village's actions and keep the economy of the Land on Fire stable. At the same time, I also implore the people of the Fire Nation to look at the war sensibly, not to be fooled by others, and that peaceful coexistence is the common understanding of the five great powers, and should not be broken by the actions of Shinobi Village. “
Tokugawa Hidetada's words were sincere, and his helpless feeling was brought into full play.
As soon as the announcement of the meeting of the five masters came out, the dissatisfaction of the people of the Fire Country due to the economic decline was immediately adjusted, and Konoha was the object of the people's dissatisfaction.
"Because of the war they provoked, our industry was suddenly sluggish."
"It's them, I heard that they stole something from other people's ninja villages, and as a result, they were jointly defeated. The affairs of the ninja world are going to implicate us! If you have the upper hand, forget it, but now you are still defeated! ”
"Isn't it because Konoha Village doesn't let the daimyo interfere at all? If it was under the jurisdiction of the Daimyo, how could such a thing happen?! How big is Konoha place, and what Hokage is used to govern it?! Why do they still have the right to wage war on their own?! It's ridiculous, and all the power should be attributed to His Excellency! ”
Such remarks began to circulate among the people of the Land of Fire, and Tokugawa Hidetada laughed heartily at this.
Are he and Konoha on the side? Of course not, he and the other four daimyo are on one side!
Are Konoha and the Four Great Ninja Villages enemies again? Of course not, they are in the same camp!
The five daimyos and the nobles attached to them are one faction, and the five great ninja villages and the small ninja villages attached to them are another faction.
The daimyo are wary of each other, and they don't want any country to significantly surpass the other four countries in terms of national strength, but they cooperate with each other in their attitude towards the ninja village, and they will never let the ninja village become bigger, and they even have the idea of destroying the ninja village!
And the relationship between the ninja villages is the same, they will join forces to suppress a certain strongest ninja village, but they will not really fight until the alliance ninja village is destroyed, and always maintain a balance between the five ninja villages, and at the same time unite against the power of the daimyo!
The intrigues between these two camps are the source of the turmoil in the whole world. Only when a certain camp is unified internally and the unification of the two camps is completed at the same time, will such a situation be broken, and the peaceful and prosperous era may really come!
……
Look back to the Land of Rain.
At this time, after half a year of ups and downs, the situation in the country of rain has finally undergone subtle changes.
Hanzo still occupies the north, Akatsuki occupies the land in the east, and the Glorious Society occupies the south, and in terms of spheres of influence, it seems that the three sides have not changed much. What is that thing that has changed? The hearts of the people have changed.
Half a year ago, in order to fight against the army suppressed by Hanzo, Wisteria brazenly asked for help from Cloud Ninja Village, and promised to open a stable supply channel for them in the territory of the Land of Rain, and this agreement lasted for decades!
Wisteria, who secretly made such a promise, concealed the fact that he had betrayed the national territory, falsely claiming that it was he who had worked hard to convince Thunder Shadow to send troops to support their liberation cause.
The unknown people enthusiastically celebrated the arrival of reinforcements and the support of the Land of Thunder for their liberation cause, but the good times were short-lived. Gradually, the people noticed that something was wrong.
These Yun Ninja didn't show much of a friendly attitude towards them, but more like, more like the invaders who invaded the Land of Rain!
In the past six months, Yun Ren, who came to "support", embezzled countless people's assets and property, ran rampant, and even had a scandal of their humiliation of women in the Land of Rain! And all this, although the Glorious Society spares no effort to suppress these scandals, how can the paper contain the fire?
This group of Yun Ren has become the object of hatred of everyone, and the prestige of the Glory Society, which helps Yun Ren everywhere, has also changed from the original to the current notoriety.
In addition, the upper beam of the wisteria is not right, how can the lower beam of the glorious meeting not be crooked? The extravagance and erosion prevailed in the Glorious Society, and it was not like an organization fighting for the people, but it was more preying on the people than the government led by Hanzo!
When the news of Yun Shinobi's bad deeds spread, Xiao announced the end of the alliance with the Shining Society, withdrawing all reinforcements to the territory, and taking with them the only remaining pure organization affiliated with the Shining Society.
Unlike the Guangyaohui, where party discipline and party rules are not strict, Xiao's development can be said to be in full swing, and the entire organization maintains a high degree of enthusiasm and purity. In the past six months, Xiao has completely replaced the Glorious Society, becoming the only reliable revolutionary organization in the hearts of the people of the Land of Rain, and has become a savior-like existence!
A large number of people fled from the territory of the Glory Society and moved into Xiao's territory, and Wisteria was naturally very dissatisfied with this, but he didn't have many good solutions. Fortunately, the manufacturing technology of the war puppets that I learned there half a year ago has been transformed into factories, and a large amount of steel and manpower has been transformed into steel puppets one after another.
"According to that hairy boy, the origin of energy ore is only available to them...... Wisteria sneered, "Then don't blame me, except for the ore, your population, your weather changing technology, I want it!" “
Wisteria sent out an order, set up a lavish feast, and invited the leader of Yun Ren to come to the meal. And in his tent a heavy chest of gold was ready.
"Heh, Xiao, did you do a good job. It's a pity that these are all ours, in front of the Yun Ren we rely on, what kind of wind and waves can you stir up?! “
"As long as we rely on the big country, what can the people do if they are dissatisfied? The Land of Rain will definitely be ruled by my wisteria! “
……
Akatsuki's territory.
Ming Yuan sneered: "Wisteria is going to do it." ”
"It's okay, it's going to be a fishing moratorium soon, and it would be strange if the people in the Glorious Society's territory still had surplus food. Destroy the Glorious Society as soon as possible, then crush the Hanzo government, establish the power of the Land of Rain, and lead the people of the whole country through the fishing moratorium. ”
"Pass the order down and prepare for war!"
