No matter how it develops in the future, the improvement of personal strength must not be ignored.

At this point, the development of the situation in the ninja world has been quite different from the original timeline, not to mention anything else, the resurrection method of Madara Uchiha, and even, whether this person is still resurrected or not, is unknown.

For Otsuki Kaguya, whether it is Madara Uchiha, or Uchiha Obito, or someone else, becoming a ten-tailed human pillar force is almost the same, as long as you can perform the Infinite Moon Reading and the Birth of the God Tree Realm, absorb the ninja chakra, and complete the missing part of the Divine Tree, you will be qualified to become a sacrifice.

To this extent, Nagato, Uchiha Itachi, and Uchiha Sasuke are all alternatives.

As for what will become, it depends on the choice of Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki.

For Gu Sugi Bushui himself, as long as he supports his family and friends through the Fourth Ninja World War, and by the way, strengthens his control over the ninja world, especially weakens the independence of Konoha Village, it will be even better.

The former must be done, as for the latter, do your best, don't be noticed by the six immortals who are already dead and still tossing, or be calculated by the three major psychic beast holy lands, the big barrel wooden house people, or visitors from outside the world.

After thinking about it for half a night, there was nothing special to gain, but I just got a bunch of specious speculations about the ancient cedar water, and in the next few days, I stayed in Konoha Village, tested the practice of fragrant phosphorus, and took the time to accompany Xiao Hiiragi, Xiao Jing and Xiao Si.

In terms of cultivation, the three little guys are obviously stronger than the students of the same level, especially the second daughter Hiiragi, her advantages are great, comparable to Kakashi Hachiki and Itachi Uchiha of the same age, and when the eldest sister Kazo was in school, there was also an Uchiha Sasuke competing with him on the same stage, and Hiiragi really couldn't find a classmate who could be compared.

In terms of basic quality and learning ability, her peers are too far behind her, and only the two younger sisters Xiaojing and Xiaosi can barely keep up with her rhythm.

Xiao Hiiragi, who has shown an extremely strong talent for water attributes since he was a child, has made great progress in mastering Feng Dun and Lei Dun in the past two years.

If it weren't for Gu Shanbushui's father, who deliberately didn't teach her any advanced ninjutsu, and kept strengthening her basic abilities, she might have been able to apply for early graduation.

"Going to school is not only about learning knowledge, exercising, and improving ninjutsu, but more importantly, about mastering how to get along with people, and for you, this experience may be even more important."

The three sisters, who have never experienced any setbacks since they were children, how to let them understand the real life conditions of all levels of the ninja world, and not become an arrogant lady who "why not eat minced meat", is much more important than mastering one or two advanced ninjutsu and defeating a few masters.

Father's admonition, Xiao Jing and Xiao Si should listen to it more, Xiao Hiiragi is full of promises, whether he can do it, it is really unknown.

Looking at the little guy who was talking about the interesting things in the school and what he had seen and heard in Konoha Village, Gu Shanbushui didn't really say anything harsh.

Before experiencing and empathizing, it is difficult for children to truly appreciate the true meaning and weight of some words.

In contrast, it is more important for parents and eldest sisters to teach by word and deed, and imitating their elders is the best way to cultivate their sentiments.

Later, Furusugi Bushui and Hinata Hinata Foot, who had finished socializing, made an appointment for an informal meeting.

Unlike Uchiha Fugaku, who had gone to the appointment, this time Hinata Hinata did not go to the Myojinkan to soak in the hot springs, but chartered a teahouse, and enjoyed the flowers and fed the fish and drank tea in the small courtyard with the ancient sugi water.

Simple stone tables and chairs, two people sit opposite each other.

"I'm old, I'm not used to talking after drinking, and my thinking is far less sharp than that of the young governor. Young...... It's nice."

"I'm also in my thirties, it's too much of an exaggeration to say that I'm young, and looking at those juniors in their prime, I feel like I'm a little out of step with the times. People, they begin to remember the past, and they keep telling the stories of the past, which proves that they have begun to lose hope for the future."

"So, I'm not too old for a guy like me who is still on the go?"

"Whether you are young or not does not depend entirely on the passage of time, and it also has to do with your mentality. We're not old enough to joke about our age......

Gu Shanbu Shui grabbed the bait snacks at hand and threw them in the fish pond, a group of colorful ornamental fish grabbed food, splashed everywhere, and it was completely subsided after half a minute.

Gazing at the fish swimming in search of scattered food, Hinata asked thoughtfully:

"The young governor likes to raise fish and feed them fishing?"

"It's just a bit of a feeling of being in control of how things go, but ...... Not addicted."

Gu Shanbu Shui gently took a sip of fragrant tea,

"After all, I'm just a fish lured by the bait of the Weaver of Destiny myself, and it's hard to say that I've broken free."

"In my opinion, it's already terrible. Perhaps, only from the position of the young governor can we experience this feeling."

is also the person in charge of the family's strategy, and the Hyuga patriarch is not necessarily more difficult than the young governor of Gusugi, but in recent years, the prestige of the Gusugi clan has obviously opened up the gap with other forces.

If it weren't for the Hyuga family's status in Konoha Village, the status of the ninja world, and the union of the two sides, it would not be equal.

Of course, unless it is when Madara Uchiha and Senju are still there, Uchiha and Senju can still be on an equal footing with the current Gusugi, and it is difficult to find a family in the ninja world that does not look up to Gusugi.

Even Konoha Village, which has always been strong, has to carefully handle the relationship with Gu Shanbu Shui, which shows that the trend of strength and weakness has been completely reversed.

How the hell did it get like this?

It seems that unconsciously, Gu Shanbushui and his family have become stronger, and in the past ten years, Konoha Village, which has experienced several large and small changes, has fallen to the current point without anyone noticing.

It's not that Konoha Ninja and Hokage and others are afraid of Furusugi Busui, but they don't dominate like before.

The most fundamental reason why there was no direct conflict between the two sides is that the competition between Gushan and Konoha Ninja is unequal and misplaced, and Gusugi Bushui has never sought to fight the hegemony of Konoha Village at the level of Ninja Village, but at a higher level, to enhance the influence of the entire ninja world.

To use an inaccurate, but relatively appropriate analogy, it is as if humans did not directly grab the territory of jackals, tigers and leopards, but surrounded lakes to create fields, destroyed forests and cleared up wasteland, suppressing the living space of all wild animals.

In the absence of direct conflict, the bottom of the food chain collapses, and the foundation for the survival of the beasts that occupy the upper layer becomes weak.

Unless the Ninja Village personally ends up and competes with the Daimyo and the Kosugi family and other nobles for "righteousness", and becomes a real political entity and fights in an all-out confrontation, otherwise, the ninja will not be able to compete with the Daimyo and the Kosugi family at all.

The order of one village and one country is the foundation of the existence of the ninja village, if the Konoha ninja takes the initiative to break it, the mercenary group that exists as a ninja union will not be able to maintain it for a long time, and now there are no two super powerhouses between Madara Uchiha and Senju Pillar to suppress discordant opposition.

Without declaring, it is the ninja village and the death hole of the ninja clan, whether it is justified or not, whether it has the ability or not, if you want to inherit it for thousands of years, or even more distant times, the "descendants of the divine blood" who will begin to become the rightful owner of this land are more than the degree of people's hearts, and the Konoha ninja still has a long way to go.

Almost engraved into the genes, the respect for righteousness passed down from generation to generation, even if it is in name only, the ninja wants to occupy it, it is not enough to conquer the flesh, but to conquer the human heart is the key.

Correspondingly, the Daimyo and Furusugi will not really actually control Konoha Village, and at most support the "White Gloves", or fight a dozen proxy wars.

Because of this, in Konoha Village's view, the status quo is only a difference between "the east wind overpowering the west wind" or "the west wind overpowering the east wind", and the two sides have never been enemies.

Maybe there will be another big war with a wide impact, and the Warring States period will be restarted, and the golden age of ninjas will come again?

Besides, with the investment of the Gusugi family, although the ninjas have declined since ***, the risk has also been reduced, and the existence of the "infrastructure ninja" proves that even if you don't fight and kill, you can live well.

"I don't know, what is the future of the Hyuga family......

After greeting for a while, Hinata Hinata asked sideways,

"The daughters of the Gushan family, one is more powerful than the other, the eldest daughter is already very good, and the momentum of the second daughter is even more exaggerated, has the young governor thought about how to arrange it in the future?"

"Teach them according to their aptitude, and then let them do what they want, and it would be better to be parents and give their children more choices."

Gu Sugi Bushui looked at Hinata's old-fashioned face and responded leisurely,

"As for Hinata, I have to say that my predecessors and your children are relatively lucky to be in an era of rapid change."

Hinata Hinata was born decades early and died inexplicably, but Hinata Hinata and her two younger sisters don't have to repeat the mistakes of the past.

"Change?"

Hinata Hinata frowned.

For the vested interest groups that actually occupy the top of the ninja world, Hinata Hinata is actually more repulsive to this term, although he himself out of compassion, arranging for his children, and the separation of the clan, and the cage bird system is about to maintain the subsidy, he still doesn't like to push the big change to start over.

"I'll just get to the point."

Gu Shanbushui put down the teacup and said seriously,

"The Land of the Wind is too big, once the infrastructure construction is completed and the livable conditions are greatly improved, its strength will be greatly improved, which will actually affect the pattern of the ninja world."

"Divide the Land of the Winds?"

Although I estimated it in my heart, it was actually quite shocking to say it from the mouth of the young governor of Gushan.

"Is this okay?"

Gu Shanbushui waved his hand and said nonchalantly:

"If it weren't necessary, the country of grass, the country of rivers, the country of fields, and the country of birds, these buffer zones would not exist at all, the balance of power on the continent is necessary to maintain the pattern and prevent the occurrence of a war of destruction that engulfs everything, a country of thunder, it's already a headache, I don't want to see a strong, unruly country of wind born."

"Can't you suppress it, don't build a canal in it, and open up a farm?"

"There are some things that can't be stopped, I won't do it, Sand patience will slow down, I will do it myself, sooner or later."

The lessons of his previous life have made Gu Sugi Bushui realize that the torrent of the times does not depend on personal will, unless he completely controls the ninja world like Otsuki Kaguya more than a thousand years ago, and destroys all risks that may cause the foundation to be shaken, otherwise, accidents will come sooner or later.

One by one, the big bosses behind the scenes overturned, proving that the water in the ninja world is too deep, and having a reincarnation eye, or even mastering the sacred tree, may not be able to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

It is better to guide the risk appropriately according to the situation, rather than forcibly suppressing it.

"It's better to be sparse, Hyuga Patriarch, I'm afraid I also think so, otherwise, I wouldn't want to change the family."

There is some truth to this, but Hinata Hinata does not want to admit his weaknesses easily.

After being silent for a while, the old-fashioned senior asked tentatively:

"Dividing the Land of the Winds, a new country that is about to be formed, and the Young Governor wants to give us a piece of the pie?"

"Exactly. Since ancient times, the Gusugi clan has not had a reputation for eating alone, and this world is big enough for us to live together peacefully."

"What if someone doesn't want to live together peacefully?"

Gu Shanbu Shui smiled indifferently.

"The world where everything goes well does not exist, at least the ninja world is still far away. If you look at many things from a higher perspective, you will find that the real key is never the trivialities."

"Trivia?"

Hinata Hinata was a little dissatisfied, feeling that Gu Shanbushui's tone was too big. The Hyuga family is indeed well versed in the ability to "stand in line", but it is not the kind of fool who will be fooled by a few big words, and the Thousand Hands Pillar and the Uchiha Madara teamed up back then, but they did not let the Hyuga family surrender at the first time, and the weight of the ancient sugi water in front of them seems to be a little worse.

"I'm not asking Hyuga to turn his back on Konoha Village and join me, but ...... Now that you have made up your mind to break down the barriers between the clan and the clan, and no longer bind your clan with a caged bird, then don't take all the fruits

It's all in one basket, just in case...... Like the Uchiha family, if someone serves it in a pot, I'm afraid it's not beautiful."

Hearing this, Hinata Hinata looked a little better, ninjas were not treated well in the secular world, even if they were supported by Gushan Bushui, it was estimated that it would not be easy to mix, and it would be too risky to give up the transcendent status of Konoha Village and be the dog leg of the Gusugi family.

Gu Shanbushui and his children seem to be talents, but what about the next generation?

Who can guarantee that they will be able to maintain a strong position?

If you just open a branch, the risk is much less.

"So, in principle, I agree. But ......"

After hesitating for a while, Hinata Hinata considered and said,

"Can you give us a reassurance pill that Hinata's bet will be assured?"

Gu Shanbushui smiled slightly, and made a simple seal with one hand, the pond in front of the two of them rippled slightly, and a figure appeared along the vague space chakra fluctuations, and the burly figure opened his eyes, revealing a circle of ring-shaped pupils.

"It's ......"

Hinata, who was surprised, swallowed the three words "reincarnation eye" and sighed convincingly.
