Chapter 376: Double Jade!
The southernmost port in the land of water is not so much a port city as a small fishing village with a port foundation!
Originally, it was the first foreign port established by the Land of Water, but due to the increasing trade with major countries, the original port gradually began to be overcapacity. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Eventually, the Daimyo of the former generation of the Water Country chose a site in the southwest of the Water Country closer to the mainland, and established a new huge harbor city.
Because of this newly built harbor, both the planning, the throughput, and the distance from the most prosperous and caravan country are far above the original port!
As a result, a large number of caravans chose the new port as their base camp, and as a result, this once prosperous port began to weaken day by day, and today, it has gradually become the size of an ordinary fishing village a few decades later.
However, the foundation that was originally used as a port is still alive, and there is enough space on the dock to park a huge sea ship that can load the Fog Hidden team, so the Fog Hidden team chose to board the ship in this place.
The reason why this port was chosen instead of the even larger seaport in the southwest was naturally for reasons of secrecy, that huge seaport was full of people, and Wuyin had no way to ensure the secrecy of his team.
Although it is impossible to hide the itinerary of the troops from others with such a large force, the number and composition of the troops, the main ninja who will fight, the well-known ninja squad, etc., must still be ensured that the information of the combat power is not obtained by the spies!
The second is that the city in the southwest, which is the largest trading port in the Water Country, does not have enough influence and control at all to let that city cooperate with him to complete the military operation!
If it was a few decades ago, when the first generation of water shadow and the second generation of water shadow, the fog hidden still had a strong enough ability to dominate the land of water, and the identity of the water shadow was on par with the daimyo of the land of water, and even faintly above the daimyo!
Mizukage's order can easily make all the cities and seaports in the land of water cooperate with their military operations!
If it was ten years ago, in the era of the Blood Mist ruled by the Four Generations of Water Shadows, the Four Generations of Water Shadows would also be able to rely on the notorious and terrifying name of Blood Mist to turn the entire city into an empty city in an instant to complete their military operations.
But now, in the era of the five generations of water shadows, a large amount of Wuyin's combat power has been lost in the civil war, and even the tailed beast, which is the most core weapon of the ninja village, does not have enough energy to seal it.
In order to revive the entire ninja village, the fifth generation of Mizukage had to apply for a huge amount of loans from the daimyo of the land of water, this is not the era of the grandfather who owes money in a harmonious society, but the era of grandson who borrows money!
Since the Daimyo of the Land of Water is willing to give these loans, he naturally has certain requirements for the fog in other aspects, the most obvious is that in terms of political status, the Daimyo naturally occupies a dominant advantage!
In this era of twin jades where daimyo and shadow exist at the same time, the relationship between daimyo and shadow is like the two poles on a seesaw, when the power of the ninja village is strong, the daimyo's voice is reduced, and when the power of the ninja village is weakened, the daimyo will naturally rise!
In fact, except for the time when the major ninja villages were just established, when various countries were established with the support of ninja villages, Kage's status was much higher than that of the daimyo at that time!
This can be seen from the names of the five ninja villages, which are the names of the ninja's most basic five escapes, in fact, in the first Five Shadows Talks, in addition to the matter of the first Hokage distributing tailed beasts, the biggest matter is to discuss the establishment of the five major powers!
The border division of the five major countries is very interesting, in order to prevent friction between countries, except for Wuyin and a few countries across the sea, other large countries have set aside a special separation zone to prevent friction between large countries.
This method of dividing the country has proved to be very successful in a sense, at least there has not been much fighting between countries in the past few decades.
But when the two sides rise to the level of the ninja village, this division does not make much sense at all, or it is a very failure!
For ninjas, the ninja world is too small, and it only takes two or three days to reach other ninja villages from Konoha!
Even if you have just put in the foot, you can get there within a week, so that the villages are no different from each other to each other!
As a result, there was constant friction in the ninja village, and the first, second, and third ninja wars broke out, but each major country developed its own economy at a high speed in peace!
And as time slowly goes on, the power of the government departments of the various large countries with a hundredfold income and ninja village has swelled rapidly!
This led to, in addition to Konoha under the sophisticated wrist of the three generations of Hokage! The status of the other ninja village kages is not as good as that of the daimyo!
And in the original timeline, after Orochimaru and Sand Shinobi held a grand [Konoha Collapse Plan] together, the Hokage's political status also dropped a lot!
In the First Ninja War, the Hokage's rights were alternated, which was just a password from the second Hokage, but in the original timeline, Tsunade needed to recognize the Hokage's position, and he had to report to the Daimyo of the Fire Country, and the Daimyo of the Fire Country agreed before he could succeed to the throne!
Although it still maintains its independence as a separate political group and has the right to appoint the supreme leader freely, in a sense, it represents a change in the strength of the two sides.
Therefore, the current Wuyin's influence on the Water Country is already very weak, as the most critical commercial lifeline of the Water Country of the island country, the commercial port that swallows a large amount of goods every day, and cooperates with the military operations of the Wuyin?
The government officials of the port said, OK! First take the official documents of the Daimyo of the Land of Water, and then make up for the losses in the suspended port, and then I will have my people cooperate with you!
Not to mention the documents of the Daimyo of the Land of Water, for the Wuyin Village, which is in ruins, it is absolutely impossible to bear just to make up for the losses of a few days of the port strike!
This is not the era in the blood mist, under the leadership of the four generations of Mizukage controlled by Obito's illusion, the first goal of completing the task is to complete the mist, and in the face of such an administrative official who hinders him, he will be hacked to death with a knife!
Deeply aware of how important peace and stability are to the development of the village, it is absolutely impossible for the five generations of water shadows to give such an order, so in desperation, the five generations of water shadows can only find this small fishing village that is farther away from Konoha as a place for the troops to board the ship.
