Chapter 95 about the brain hole of World War II
In the face of Rope Tree's more and more acute questions and more and more spicy words, the expressions of the high-level people present gradually became difficult to see, and the entire conference room was furrowed except for Uzumaki Taketori.
What Rope Tree said is not alarmist but reasoning based on reality, and it is likely that Konoha in the original book had to strike first in order to deal with the increasingly severe situation, and took the lead in provoking the war against the Land of Rain, which led to the Second Ninja World War, which directly led to the death of Nagato's parents, Rope Tree, Kato Broken, and Scorpion's parents, causing a series of later tragedies.
Even if Konoha won the victory in the Second Ninja World War and temporarily survived the crisis, the hidden danger had been buried, and Konoha was still besieged by the four major ninja villages during the Third Ninja World War. If it weren't for the fact that Konoha was a genius with a golden flash, and was born in an instant, coupled with the support of the backbone of the parents of the twelve little powerhouses and the three ninjas of the older generation, it would be difficult for Konoha to win the three battles.
It was explained in the original book that the reason for the outbreak of the Second Ninja World War was the imbalance in the economic development of various countries, which led to the rise of martial arts factions and led to war.
But why did the Fire Nation, which has the strongest resources and economy in the ninja world, take the lead in starting a war? And why is the target of the attack a small country like the Land of Rain with a harsh environment and lack of resources?
You must know that the leader of the Rain Ninja Village at that time was Hanzo, who was known as a demigod, and attacking the Land of Rain was not worth the loss to Konoha at all, and the Sand Hidden Village and Iwain Village, which were adjacent to the Land of Rain, had no deep hatred with Konoha at all.
To the north of the Fire Country, the Land Country and the Iron Country are not only fertile and rich in grain and minerals, but also adjacent to the village of Yunyin, Konoha's biggest enemy. Why didn't Konoha put a piece of fat at the door of the enemy's house and didn't bite it, but chose to gnaw a hard bone?
The reason is most likely that the Rain Hidden Village played some kind of important role in the fall of the Vortex Country! Otherwise, why did Uzumaki Nagato end up in the Land of Rain, and why were his parents killed by the Konoha ninja as enemies? The red hair of the Uzumaki should be a recognizable feature. Why did Nagato's parents prefer to cross the land of fire to settle in the land of rain after the fall of the country of vortex instead of going to Konoha to join the princess of the country of vortex, Mito Uzumaki? All this must be inseparable from Yuyin Village!
Rope Tree himself speculated that all this was probably due to the fact that after the Vortex Village asked Konoha for help to no avail, there was a serious division within the Uzumaki Clan!
Seeing that the demise of the country was inevitable, the Uzumaki clan naturally wanted to flee, and the four major ninja villages and neighboring countries were enemies and it was impossible for them to let them go, so they could only choose the only forces left in Konoha, the Land of Rain, and the Country of Grass.
As the patriarch of the country of the vortex, the first line is of course the elder Uzumaki Mito who advocates the clan to go to Konoha to join his own lineage. However, the other branches resented Konoha and Mito for not saving them from death, and were angry with the clan chiefs, so they did not obey their orders and suggested taking refuge in the other two countries.
The patriarch felt that his position was threatened, so he naturally insisted on his decision, and then the contradictions between the two sides became bigger and bigger, and finally they even killed each other.
And the ninjas of the rain ninja village are likely to be invited by the branch of the whirlpool clan to be foreign aid, and in the end, the patriarch of the whirlpool clan suffered heavy casualties, and only Kushina was rescued by the Konoha ninja, and the branch was only Nagato's parents and Xianglian's grandparents, who went to the land of rain and the country of grass to settle down.
Otherwise, with the strength of the Uzumaki clan, even if they are besieged by the surrounding countries and there are ninjas from the four major ninja villages secretly attacking, if they are bent on escaping, they should be able to keep a certain number of clansmen alive, and it is impossible that there are less than 10 people left. And the reason why Konoha wants to attack the country of rain is probably because the rain ninja village harbors the traitors of the Uzumaki clan, and they are the culprits who caused the extinction of the Uzumaki clan!
Of course, the above is just the brains and speculations of the traverser, and the rope tree can't be sure whether his guess is correct before it happens. However, these speculations are not completely useless, and they also have some guiding effect on the actions of the rope tree. In order not to affect the development of subsequent events and cause the plot to change greatly, Rope Tree is not ready to change the general trend, so he will not prevent the destruction of the Vortex Country and Nagato's parents from going to the Land of Rain.
The main purpose of the rope tree is to rescue more whirlpool people into Konoha, they are close relatives of the Thousand Hands Clan and the bloodline is pure, if they can marry the Thousand Hands Clan, they will definitely be able to greatly increase the bloodline concentration of the Thousand Hands Clan, plus the Rope Tree's bloodline fusion ability, the Asura bloodline concentration of the Thousand Hands Clan will soon be able to rise again, and the bloodline fusion plan will be successfully completed in the future.
The reason why Rope Tree talked so much to the top executives before was not only to gain Konoha's support, but also to be able to personally lead this rescue mission. Only then will he be able to better control the development of subsequent events.
"As the Rope Tree Patriarch said, if Konoha does not support the country of Vortex, the consequences may be even more serious in the future...... It's just that now the village is developing at a high speed, and if you get involved in the war rashly, it will interrupt the good situation, and it is difficult to get the support of the villagers, which is really a difficult choice......" The three generations of high-level leaders were dumbfounded by the rope tree, knowing that they had changed their minds like themselves, and it was difficult to choose if they couldn't find a solution for a while.
"What is Sarutobi-sensei worried about is that the business of the Konoha Foundation will be lost because of this incident, which will affect the economic development of Konoha and then be opposed by the villagers? I don't think there's any need to worry about that!
First of all, the four major ninja villages and countries are the ones who provoke the war, and it is a great righteousness for us to support as allies, and we can get the support of the people as long as we publicize it carefully!
Secondly, now that Konoha has become the economic center of the ninja world, the economies of all countries have a certain dependence on Konoha, as long as we do not terminate trade exchanges, countries will not take the initiative to carry out economic blockades. This is because there is no formal alliance between the countries, but only some tacit understanding has been formed on the matter of destroying the country of the vortex.
If it is just a certain country unilaterally severing trade with Konoha will not have much impact on Konoha, it will be them who will suffer at that time. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if all countries cut off trade with the Fire Nation at the same time, we can still be self-sufficient, at most, the economic development will lag behind, and the other countries will collapse economically due to the imbalance of resources!
In the end, although the war requires the consumption of resources, it also has a certain role in promoting the economy, and the Konoha Foundation will not only not have losses, but can rely on this war to make a lot of money! Rope tree's words dispelled everyone's biggest concerns.
