Chapter 567 Shogunate

Rope Tree has led the Western Expedition Ninja Army to stay in the country of Kawanoku for three days, and during these three days, he drove the Tianxing Fortress to carefully search the entire country of Kawanoko, but he has never found any trace of Madara.

In fact, the reason why he led the army into the country of Sichuan before was not all false, in addition to annexing this land, he also wanted to try his luck by the way, to see if he could find the seriously injured Madara and Heijue. He concluded that the other party must not be his opponent now, even if he couldn't kill the two of them, if he could grab the Outer Dao Golem, he would make a lot of money!

It's a pity that the country of Kawanoku has a vast area, the terrain is complex, and the absolute is good at stealth reconnaissance, and the search of Tianxing Fortress in the past three days is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and no clues have been found.

However, it was not for nothing, in the past three days, he wrote down all of the Kawanokuni through the system and made a detailed map, and the mountain people scattered in the mountains were all taken by him to live in the Tenkado Fortress.

These mountain people have developed a belief in the sacred tree because of the Tianxing Fortress, and they can provide a lot of wish power every day, but their physical fitness is very strong, and they can become ninjas with a little cultivation, which is both central and potential, and they are simply the most ideal believers. Each of these mountain people is very valuable to the rope tree, and after the establishment of the new ninja village, they are the backbone of the villagers, and they are also the cornerstone of the rope tree's maintenance and rule.

The environment of the country of Kawanoki is harsh, and the rope tree will make a big move here next, these precious mountain people are still safer in the fortress, and there are only more than 10,000 people around them, so it will not cause too much burden.

On the fourth day, Nayuki received a reply from the Daimyo, agreeing that he would establish a second ninja village on the new western border, but after the war, people's hearts were unstable, materials were scarce, and the government was unable to preside over the construction of immigrants and new territories, so all administrative construction was solved by Namoki himself, and he did not have to pay any taxes to the government!

This reply was the result of a discussion between the daimyo and the top management of the Konoha headquarters.

In their opinion, the so-called Second Ninja Village is just an excuse for Rope Tree to keep his military power and build his own power.

The two newly acquired border territories are not only barren and barren, but also inaccessible, and have no construction value at all, but these two territories are huge, adding up to at least a quarter of the size of the original Fire Country, and in order to maintain the sanctity of the territory, other countries cannot be allowed to enter and leave at will.

However, this vast frontier is difficult to defend, especially since the westernmost desert region is a complete enclave that could be conquered by the Wind Nation at any time.

The daimyo and the high-level leaders of Konoha thought about it, and only the Celestial Fortress of the Rope Tree in the entire ninja world could hold such a large no-man's land under the difficult logistical supply.

Don't forget that Skywalker Fortress is the personal belongings of the Rope Tree, and no one else has the right to transfer it, so they simply threw these two chicken-ribbed territories to the Rope Tree as a burden.

Seeing that the Daimyo's reply was indeed not much different from what he expected, or even better, Rope Tree quickly sent the second letter of request to the Daimyo that he had prepared a long time ago.

In the letter, he expressed his understanding of the difficulties in the country, his willingness to take on the responsibility of guarding the border, and thanked the daimyo for his trust. However, his name for being in charge of both government affairs and military affairs at the top of Konoha was not right, so he asked the daimyo to appoint him as a general.

After the daimyo got the rope tree's request, he was very happy instead of angry, and in his opinion, the rope tree was determined to split with Konoha. The position of Shogun is an important official position belonging to the Daimyo government, and once the rope tree is appointed, it is equivalent to being subject to his control!

So he simply issued the appointment this time, without even consulting with the Konoha higher-ups.

In the afternoon of the same day, Naruki was officially appointed as a shogun by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, allowing him to open the shogunate and take charge of all military affairs in the western two regions.

In addition, at the request of the rope tree, the two new territories in the west were transformed into two provinces, named Xichuan and Xilin.

Nishikawa is the original country of the river, and Nishirin is the desert area ceded by the country of wind. This Xichuan is just that, the name of this Xilin is a bit unworthy of the name, it should be called Xisha. However, no one cared about these details, and when the news of the appointment spread, the entire ninja world exploded.

The position of general has never been held by a ninja, let alone the high-level ninja village leader who has mastered an army of 70,000 people?

This special appointment marks that the Daimyo of the Fire Nation has reached into the interior of the Ninja Village, and the Rope Tree, with the name of righteousness, can firmly grasp the 70,000 ninja army in his hands.

That's a full 70,000 elites, including almost all the patriarchs of Konoha ninja families! How big is the impact?

In everyone's opinion, after Konoha has undergone this split, his strength will definitely be greatly weakened!

Because no one thinks that the rope tree can really develop the ninja village in a barren land.

Everyone knows that the development of ninja villages is inseparable from civilians and cities as a foundation, without these ninjas who are not productive, there will be a source of funds, and these 70,000 elite ninjas who serve as defense tasks will only be trapped and killed by the vast western border, and a lot of resources will be wasted in vain, even the income of the Konoha Foundation will not be able to sustain it.

The high-level management of Konoha also took these into account, so they agreed to the request of the rope tree so simply, and when the financial affairs of the branch could not be sustained, they would naturally put the ninjas under their command back to the Konoha headquarters.

But everyone didn't think that the rope tree had always been far-sighted, how could it be possible to put itself in a predicament?

The predictions of the high-level ninja world are not wrong under normal circumstances, but there is a prerequisite for all this, that is, the environment of Xichuan and Xilin is harsh and the population is sparse, if these two problems are solved, this large area of land will not be a dead place to trap the rope tree, but a treasure land no less than any big country!

As for the issue of population, the rope tree has already begun to prepare in the previous war, and now there should be 20 million civilians in the Wind Country in the Tianxing Fortress and the Divine Tree Cave, which may still be a little scarce for the area of Xichuan and Xilin, but there is no problem at all in carrying out preliminary development and construction, and when the two places prosper, they can naturally attract more immigrants.

As for the most important environmental problem, in fact, the rope tree has already thought of a countermeasure!

Rope Tree has been planning a big plan for several years, which is to obtain a territory that belongs entirely to himself, realize the ninjutsu civilization plan, and further seize the full power of the entire Fire Country.

He never thought of splitting with Konoha, and even the name of Shinnin Village is the second village of Konoha and belongs to Konoha's subordinate branch! When he completes his plan, he will return to the headquarters and continue to fight for the position of Hokage! And after Konoha got the military and political power of Xichuan and Xilin, he no longer had to be controlled by the daimyo, and he could vigorously develop without any care.

And once Rope Tree holds both the positions of Hokage and Shogun at the same time, he can gradually intervene in the power of the entire Fire Country through the power of the shogunate!

In Rope's memory, the shogunate was once above the emperor and daimyo in the history of an island nation.

Now Rope Tree can gradually seize power from the daimyo in the same way, and when the three powers of military, government, and commerce are all in his hands, he will naturally be the sole ruler of the Fire Country!

After obtaining the position of general, now the plan of the rope tree has reached the most critical part, that is, to move mountains and seas and change the world!
