Chapter 324: Their Respective Means
For a long time to come, the world of ninjas fell into an eerie silence...
Needless to say, Konoha didn't have to talk about it, although he secretly returned to Konoha and didn't alarm too many people, but the fact that Zhenyong was injured still spread through some obscure channels... To put it more easily to understand, the current Konoha is, at least on the surface, at the weakest moment in the last ten years, temporarily losing the protection of Mu Dun, although it is still the most powerful group in the ninja world, but at least in the eyes of other interest groups, it has temporarily lost its former absolute hegemony...
Such a sensitive news, in the past history, is often a symbol of the beginning of the war, Konoha has prepared a plan to deal with emergencies from the very top, and the first step of the plan is to rein in the power that spreads in the ninja world, in addition to the most basic information access channels, Konoha has been completely on the defensive.
On the other hand, the other big countries in the ninja world did not directly wage war against Konoha like they did after the death of Hatsuyome, but all adopted defensive strategies similar to Konoha and in this way, not to mention war, that is, the normal contacts between the various ninja villages in the ninja world began to be gradually blocked, and even the trade of ordinary people was affected!
There is no place in the entire ninja world where there is still a battle, but everywhere is filled with the smell of gunsmoke...
You don't need a keen political sense, this kind of obviously unreasonable thing doesn't happen every day! To be precise, even in the previous wars, trade between countries and villages was never interrupted - politics sometimes had to yield to the economy, and the great powers knew very well that such wars could not lead to the destruction of either side, which meant that the loser of this war was likely to be the winner of the next war... In fact, the practice of leaving a way out in this way has been a common method used by various major countries.
β¦
True, this obviously unjustified lockdown caused panic among the people, and all countries, including the richest of the Fire Nations, were inevitably affected...
So, everyone felt that something frightening was about to happen...
The calm before the storm is suffocating and shivering.
Ninjas, cultivators, merchants, pawn peddlers... All the common people are like the forces that stand at the top, or rather, like worms hiding in caves, waiting for destruction or survival...
β¦
But things are going differently than everyone expected.
After doing this, the ninja world fell into a long silence, and the night seemed to be invisible, which made people frightened and uneasy, but helpless... Even if he knew that he would usher in destruction, he still didn't want to linger in this confusion.
Time began to pass in such torment, and with silent footsteps towards a future that no one knows.
And as the leader of the Fire Country, Ritsuko Fujiwara, the fire daimyo, began to choose reform at this moment!
That's right, at this very sensitive moment, the Fire Nation publicly announced that it has officially formed a partisan alliance with the Konoha Ninja Village under the Fire Country, and from the date of the declaration, the military power of the Fire Country, as well as all foreign policies, will be decided by the Fire Daimyo and the Konoha Village Hokage.
And this announcement also means that the default rule that has been maintained in the ninja world for many years, and the politics of the great power and the ninja village do not affect each other, will officially collapse from today...

Ritsuko has never been a woman who only thinks about immediate interests.
Therefore, after she came to power, she once behaved cautiously and cowardly, which was not only a political search for common ground while reserving differences, but also a deliberate external weakness... Until everyone thinks that she is just an ordinary woman.
And before the other big powers in the ninja world reacted, the Fire Nation had already implemented a series of reform measures!
Agriculture, commerce, services... Even an industry that has never been taken seriously!
It is true that the sudden reform did cause quite a stir within the Fire Nation, but with the help of Konoha's powerful military power, this little bit of discord quickly disappeared...
The action is so fast that people have to speculate that this operation is not only a reform of internal affairs in the Fire Country, but also a test of the current situation in the ninja world...
Any well-informed politician has already sniffed something out of this series of means...
Some kind of powerful and terrible ambition!
