How to control a country without the use of force?

Is it the finance that masters it? Or is it the public opinion that manipulates it?

These methods may all bring great chaos to a country, or even disintegrate it from within.

But there is a more direct, invisible and deadly way, and that is to control the country's food.

People have to eat, and if a country's food output cannot meet the most basic survival needs of its citizens, then the country will naturally become turbulent and even riotous.

The people can't survive anymore, and who cares about your officials and nobles, selling everything for a bite to eat is just normal.

The method that the yellow ape was about to use was a reference to the means of a certain great country in his previous life.

It was by controlling food that that country had made a continent its backyard.

The Yellow Ape plans to plant a large number of improved seeds of wheat and rice developed by the Rope Tree in the territory of the Fire Country, especially in and around Konoha.

After the bumper grain harvest, in the name of charity and aid, the grain was sold to several other large countries at low prices.

The influx of large quantities of low-priced grain will bankrupt the landed aristocracy and agricultural chambers of those countries, as well as the common people who farm the land, because of the sharp drop in food prices.

At that time, the yellow ape can not only get the Konoha Chamber of Commerce to go to these countries to acquire land, but also promote the improved cash crops of rope trees to these countries in a win-win model, and induce local nobles and individual farmers to switch to cash crops through high profits.

As long as the yellow ape continues to supply these countries with low-cost grain, the short-sighted aristocracy will give up grain cultivation for the sake of money, and switch to more profitable cash crops.

At this point, the yellow ape's plan will be considered a preliminary success, and then he only needs to suspend the supply of food and the purchase of cash crops, and the country will be in chaos from within.

Taking advantage of the fact that these countries are bankrupt due to lack of food and fall into civil strife, Konoha with a large amount of grain in hand can turn into a righteous army in the name of rescue, enter these countries, harvest the people's reputation, and even annex them.

In this plan of the yellow ape, force is the basic guarantee, and food is the weapon in the hand, which can be described as a real killing invisible.

Of course, this plan is still in the preparation stage, and the Yellow Ape's focus is still on the Ninja Village Alliance.

In the next few days, as the ninjas of the three ninja villages of Sand Hide, Fog Hide, and Rain Hide arrived one after another, the ninja village coalition army was assembled.

For the management and command of the ninja village coalition of tens of thousands of people, the yellow ape, who hates trouble, is fully entrusted to the second Hokage Kazuma.

Yellow Ape's lazy behavior, others have no opinion, after all, this lord is the main force against Madara Uchiha, and his strength is the greatest help to the Ninja Village Alliance.

While the Ninja Village Alliance was steadily advancing, Madara Uchiha, who was located in the country of grass, was also making his own preparations.

Using Bai Jue as a material, Orochimaru, who was already well prepared, created a filthy earth reincarnation army of thousands of people for Madara Uchiha.

After the acceptance, Madara Uchiha was very satisfied, and met Orochimaru's needs, opening up a separate laboratory for him in the base, and providing a large amount of Hakumaru for his use.

For the 100,000 Bai Jue stored in the underground base, when he saw it for the first time, Orochimaru was shocked and greedy.

A whole 100,000 white absolutes! If this is used for experiments, what materials do you still lack?

Even in Konoha, Orochimaru had never experienced such an abundant supply of experiments.

The first time he saw these white absolutes, Orochimaru made up his mind, and after the yellow ape defeated the Uchiha Madara, these white absolutes would all be pulled to the scientific research institute.

Over the next few days, both sides were preparing for a real big battle.

Madara Uchiha's side is mainly to continue to build the ninja army reincarnated in the filthy earth.

On the side of the Ninja Village Alliance, thousands of reconnaissance ninjas were dispatched, with a team of three people, searching for the location of Madara Uchiha everywhere.

Five days passed, and as the coalition ninjas continued their relentless search, a search team composed of Hinata and Oil Girl ninjas discovered Madara Uchiha's traces in the country of grass.

As soon as the news reached Konoha back, the top leaders of the entire Ninja Village Alliance became excited.

Tsuchikage Onoki and the third generation of Thunder Shadow even proposed at the first time to send troops to the country of grass and gather all their forces to eliminate Madara Uchiha.

"Four generations of Hokage, this is our best chance! Madara Uchiha didn't know that his location was leaked yet, so he must not have taken much precautions. Onoki said sincerely.

Sitting on the main seat, the yellow ape maintained a surging smile, and he looked up at the front, "Everyone's opinion?" ”

"I'm in favor of Tsuchikage's proposal." Three generations of Thunder Shadow supported.

After the three generations of Thunder Shadow spoke, the room was quiet again, and the others did not post their opinions at random, but looked at the yellow ape.

Seeing the situation at the scene, Onoki sighed in his heart the great influence of Konoha while continuing to look at the yellow ape, and continued: "Uchiha Madara doesn't get rid of it for a day, and the ninja world is restless for a day, what are you hesitating about? ”

"Of course Madara Uchiha has to be removed, but we also have to be on guard, this time his exposure may be a trap." It was the four generations of Kazekage Chiyo who spoke.

"So we'll be okay waiting here? Madara Uchiha himself will perish? Onoki looked at Chiyo and asked a little angrily.

"Three generations of Tsuchikage! What do you mean? If we fall into the trap this time, can you be held responsible? Not to be outdone, Chiyo asked rhetorically.

"I can!" Either way, Onoki didn't want to drag it out any longer.

The longer this time drags on, the more Konoha can expand his influence through the threat of Madara Uchiha, which is something that Onoki never wants to see.

"Huh!" With two sneers, Chiyo said disdainfully, "What guarantee do you take?" ”

"Four generations of Kazekage! You...."

"Alright, everyone!" Interrupting the argument between Onoki and Chiyo, Yellow Ape said, "According to the words of the three generations of Tsuchikage, we will lead the ninja village coalition to the country of grass together. ”

Seeing that the yellow ape agreed to his suggestion, Onoki turned his anger into joy and happily sat back in his seat.

With the decision of the Five Shadows Council to send troops to the country of grass, the ninja village coalition led by Konoha is like a sophisticated machine, running at high speed.

The strong in the ninja world are respected, and now Konoha has two ninja gods in charge, although there is hatred and contradictions between the ninja villages, but under the pressure of the two ninja world's strongest people between the yellow ape and the thousand hand pillar, the ninjas in each village, at least on the bright side, are still very obedient and do not dare to cause conflict and chaos.

Of course, there are also shadows from various villages, many warnings, and even the reasons for the subordinate ninjas who spread hate speech with their own hands.

On the night of the order to send troops, tens of thousands of coalition ninjas, under the leadership of the commanders of the major teams, left Konoha Village one after another.

Yellow Ape, Onoki and other five shadows plus Hanzo also set off with the large army.

Konoha Village, the base camp of the Ninja Village Alliance, left only the two masters and apprentices of the second Hokage and Sarutobi Hizashi to stay behind and be responsible for preventing the enemy's sneak attack.

At the same time that the Ninja Village Alliance sent troops, in the underground base of the country of grass, Madara Uchiha also made his own response plan.

Just as Chiyo had guessed, the exposure of Madara Uchiha's location was part of his plan.

The yellow ape is too difficult, and the five major ninja villages are gathered in Konoha Village, and in the face of this force, even Uchiha Madara is not easy to start.

For this reason, Madara Uchiha plans to lure the snake out of the cave once and lure the main force of the Yellow Ape and the Five Great Ninja Villages to the Land of Grass.

When the Yellow Ape and the Allied Ninja come to the Land of Grass, he will leave an entity clone made of White Jedi in the base, and cooperate with Orochimaru's Tainted Earth Reincarnation Legion to drag the Allied Army.

The Uchiha Madara's body will infiltrate the hinterland of the Fire Nation and launch a surprise attack on Konoha Village, snatching all the tailed beasts left in Konoha .

There are two most difficult points in this plan, one is whether the coalition forces will be fooled and choose to attack rashly? The other is Orochimaru's Filthy Earth Reincarnation Legion, how long can it hold back the Yellow Ape and the coalition forces?

Madara Uchiha is not very demanding, and Orochimaru only needs to be able to last for half an hour.

In this half an hour, plus the time for the yellow ape to return to Konoha to hurry, Madara Uchiha was absolutely sure that he would capture all the tailed beasts hidden in Konoha.

After making arrangements, leaving behind the entity clone that confuses the enemy, and admonishing Orochimaru and Kuro Jue, Madara Uchiha left the base.

For the time being, it is unclear whether the coalition forces have sent troops, so in order not to reveal their whereabouts, Madara Uchiha restrained his breath and chose to sneak into the hinterland of the Fire Country first while it was dark.

Time flew by, and the night passed quickly, and by the time the allied forces of the Ninja Village, which had marched hastily all night, arrived at the border of the Fire Country, the sun was already high in the sky, and Madara Uchiha had begun to approach Konoha Village.

In the entire coalition army, except for the yellow ape, no one found Madara Uchiha's traces, and even the several reconnaissance teams that had been monitoring near the underground base of the country of grass had always believed that Madara Uchiha was still in the base.

The yellow ape was able to spot Madara Uchiha's trails, all relying on his own wide-area perceptual ability.

After determining that Madara Uchiha was approaching Konoha, Yellow Ape did not choose to reveal information to the coalition forces, but thought about how to maximize the benefits of the attack.

When the coalition stopped at the border of the Fire Nation and began to camp and rest, Yellow Ape left a shadow clone in his tent and asked Tsunade and Tsuruma to help him cover it, and then secretly left the camp.

In a forest about three miles away from Konoha Village, the yellow ape that came to Konoha to help him stopped Madara Uchiha here.

Faced with the sudden arrival of the yellow ape, a hint of disappointment flashed in Madara Uchiha's eyes, but his expression was still as cold as ever.

"How did you find me?" Standing opposite the yellow ape, Madara Uchiha asked.

"My perception can cover the entire Fire Country." The yellow ape said with a smile.

The pervert who was surprised by the yellow ape's perceptual ability in his heart, knowing that neither side could help the other's Madara Uchiha, was not prepared to waste time here.

"Senior, are you leaving?" Seeing Madara Uchiha's retreat, Yellow Ape said with a smile.

"Do you want to fight?" Looking at the yellow ape calmly, Madara Uchiha's emotions did not fluctuate in any way because of the failure of the plan.

"You came to Konoha to capture the Tailed Beast!" As he spoke, the yellow ape walked up to Madara Uchiha and sat down on the ground very casually.

"Shall we make a deal?" Sitting cross-legged, Yellow Ape looked up at Madara Uchiha and said.

With an interested look, Madara Uchiha wondered what kind of deal this genius junior wanted to make?

Learning from the yellow ape, Madara Uchiha also sat down, waiting for the yellow ape's words.

"Except for the one-tailed, two-tailed, and nine-tailed, I can give you the other tailed beasts."

"What do you want?"

The smile on his face was even bigger, and the yellow ape said the most ruthless words in the most ordinary tone, "Help me kill all the daimyo and nobles left in Konoha Village." ”

"What do you want to do?" Intrigued, Madara Uchiha asked curiously.

"In my own way, to bring peace to this world." In this sentence, the yellow ape said very confidently.

"You want to unify the world by force." Madara Uchiha quickly figured out what the yellow ape was thinking.

There is nothing to hide! Yellow Ape smiled and nodded.

"It doesn't make sense! When you die, the unified country you have built will still be torn apart, and hatred and war will reappear on the land. Your peace is only a short-lived false peace! Madara Uchiha commented with certainty.

"So I'm not going to die." The yellow ape spread his hands and replied with a smile.

"Hahaha!" Laughing, Madara Uchiha didn't believe that there would be immortal people in this world, even if it was him now, even if he was a former Six Dao Immortal, there would be a day when he would die of old age.

"The immortals of the three holy lands have all lived for thousands of years, why can't I?"

"Just because you practice immortal arts doesn't mean you can live that long like those animals."

"I can!"

"You can't!"

Looking at the yellow ape in front of him, Madara Uchiha felt that the junior in front of him might have gone crazy.

Keeping the smile on his face, the yellow ape stopped talking, but stretched out his right hand and handed it to Madara Uchiha.

Facing the yellow ape's outstretched right hand, Madara Uchiha looked puzzled.

"Didn't you notice that I don't have any chakras in my body?" Yellow Ape reminded.

"What the hell are you trying to say?" It's normal not to refine, no chakra, Madara Uchiha asked a little impatiently.

"Hold my hand." The yellow ape didn't care, and said with a smile.

Puzzled, he reached out and held the yellow ape's hand, Madara Uchiha always felt weird.

Under Madara Uchiha's gaze, the yellow ape injected the natural energy from his body into his body.

Feeling the entry of natural energy, Madara Uchiha looked at the yellow ape in surprise, this guy can directly use pure natural energy?

Madara Uchiha didn't know much about senjutsu, but he knew at least one thing that ninjas used senjutsu by mixing chakra and natural energy to form senjutsu chakra.

"How did you do that?" Madara Uchiha asked curiously.

"I gave up the cultivation system of Chakra and instead practiced the immortal art of the Holy Land, and I can live for a long time like those immortals." The yellow ape replied.

This time, Madara Uchiha's expression was out of shape for the first time, he looked at the yellow ape in surprise, he didn't expect this junior to dare to make such an attempt, and he also succeeded.

"That's just a thousand years of false peace, and you'll die one day. My plan is to bring lasting peace to this world. Madara Uchiha insisted.

"Aren't you going to die too? After you die, can you guarantee the continued existence of infinite monthly reading? The yellow ape asked rhetorically.

Asked by the yellow ape's question, Madara Uchiha's understanding of the Infinite Moon Reading mainly came from the stone tablets left by the Six Dao Immortals, and he didn't know if the Infinite Moon Reading would continue after his death.

"So, let's take a gamble! I acquiesce that you take away the tailed beasts other than the one-tailed, two-tailed, and nine-tailed, and you help me kill all the daimyo and nobles, and we will work together for a win-win situation. The yellow ape said with a smile.

"What about the rest of the tailed beasts?" Madara Uchiha asked.

"When I establish a unified country, we will have a decisive battle, and whoever wins will take the tailed beast." The yellow ape replied.

Silence, then laughter, after laughing enough, Madara Uchiha looked at the yellow ape seriously, "You're using me. ”

"Yes!" Yellow Ape admitted.

"Are you so confident you can beat me?" Madara Uchiha asked.

"A little!" The yellow ape raised his hand and said.

Smiling again, Madara Uchiha stood up.

"How many years?"

"Three years."

"Okay, I promise you!"

After speaking, Madara Uchiha walked in the direction of Konoha Village.

Standing up and looking at Madara Uchiha's back, the yellow ape finally said: "No matter how beautiful a dream is, it's just a dream, no matter how bitter the reality is, it's reality after all!" ”

"So what? I want to make all the people in this world have a good dream! Without looking back, Madara Uchiha said calmly.

Everyone has their own ambitions, and the yellow ape no longer speaks, but just watches Madara Uchiha fly away.
