Hinata Hyuga, the Great Orator

The meeting room was silent.

Hinata didn't say anything more.

These figures have always been high and mighty, and now that they have encountered such a great change, they need to be given some time to consider things.

The Five Kage remained silent.

Everyone knows that once some words are spoken, there is no going back.

Hinata wasn't in a hurry. She looked around and casually sat down on a chair.

The unification of the Shinobi World and the Infinite Tsukuyomi Plan are different; the former still has a chance of survival, while the latter has no hope at all.

If the two sides were evenly matched, or their strengths were not too different, then the four Kage would not have hesitated for so long and would have simply joined forces with the major Shinobi Village to fight against Konoha.

However, the gap in strength between the two sides is too great!

Consider Hinata's record over the past few years; she's truly killing Kage like dogs. No matter which village's Kage you're from, being able to last ten moves against Hinata is considered impressive.

If you think about it carefully, Hinata's achievements were mostly due to defeating Orochimaru.

Especially the Sand Village Collapse Plan of the previous two years, which was almost a grand drama directed by Hinata herself.

Besides Hinata's personal strength, the major Shinobi Village are even more wary of the power of the Tailed Beasts.

All signs indicate that the Akatsuki has gathered Nine Tailed Beasts.

Even though there is still some controversy surrounding the Nine-Tails, Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Hinata has now returned, and although she hasn't mentioned the Akatsuki, judging from her Hinata, it's safe to assume that the Akatsuki has been destroyed by Hinata.

This means that if Naruto is included, Konoha has gathered Nine Tailed Beasts, and its strength is now vastly different from what it used to be.

This is only the surface strength of Konoha.

Let's take a look at the other ninja villages.

After Sunagakure 'Orochimaru attack, Sunagakure lost nearly half of its strength and has yet to recover.

Moreover, Sunagakure has no Kage Level powerhouses at all.

The Kumogakure was originally extremely strong, but after being attacked by Pain, its strength was second only to the Sunagakure, and the village could no longer produce any decent strongmen.

While Kirigakure and Iwagakure are relatively strong, a closer analysis reveals that they are essentially supported by the Mizukage and Tsuchikage.

There aren't many strong individuals in the village, but the core strength is still quite stable.

However, even if all the strongest ninjas from the major Shinobi Village were combined, they still wouldn't be enough to defeat Hinata alone.

You can tell by looking at the situation in the meeting room.

Space frozen!

This is a derivative ability that Hinata gained after years of hard training in Gentle Fist and cultivating Sage Body.

After several years of development, Hinata has mastered the technique to perfection. Simply by standing there, she can mobilize Natural Energy to make the space feel stagnant and heavy.

It wasn't gravity, but it felt like a ton of weight pressing down on everyone.

The air has become solid, and every movement breaks this 'solid state' of the air.

After waiting for a short while, Hinata raised her head, no longer intending to give them a chance to think.

"Warring States Era, ninjas were divided into clans and fought against each other constantly. Even children as young as a few years old had to go to the battlefield!"

"It wasn't until Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha established Konohagakure that the Land of Fire was able to end its war."

Hinata paused, glanced around, and continued:

"However, although the war between clans ended, the establishment of the ninja village spurred wars between nations."

"The civil war among ninjas did not end with the establishment of ninja villages; on the contrary, the expansion of ninja villages further increased the scale of the war."

"In just sixty years, three wars broke out between ninja villages."

"Hmm... In the three wars, the casualties among ninjas were actually not that great."

Hinata comes from the 21st Century, so she has naturally heard of real world wars, in which tens of millions of people have died.

In comparison, the casualties of tens of thousands of ninjas in the Shinobi World War were nothing compared to the world war in Hinata's previous life, and could hardly be called a "great war".

Although ninjas possess extraordinary power, they are, after all, a minority group.

The people who suffered the most casualties in the Shinobi World War were actually the civilians of this world.

"I've done the statistics!"

Hinata continued, "The three Shinobi World Wars resulted in the deaths and injuries of millions of civilians, and caused countless economic losses."

"After all..."

"Ninja villages earn commissions by completing missions. If the world is at peace, ninjas will have no missions and will lose their means of survival."

The so-called Three Shinobi World Wars were actually not very large in scale; they were more like a tacit understanding between the Five Great Shinobi Villages.

When Sunagakure cause trouble in the Land of Fire, Konoha Ninja can receive missions. When Konoha Ninja retaliate, Sunagakure ninjas can receive missions.

Why did Sunagakure Orochimaru years ago to carry out the Konoha Crush Plan?

It's all because the village is poor!

If the village is poor, then let the world be in chaos.

When the world is in chaos, ninjas can receive a large number of mission requests and earn a lot of commissions.

Unfortunately, Sunagakure's plan to instigate the Fourth Shinobi World War failed.

Back then, Orochimaru killed the Kazekage and Hokage with a single move, forcing Konoha and Sunagakure to put aside their differences in order to stop other ninja villages from eyeing his territory.

This has always been the way ninjas survive.

"The Shinobi World has reached a point where change is imperative!"

Hinata's face was stern, and her tone was serious!

"Ninjas are not weapons of war!"

"If ninjas want to survive, they must abandon their past ways of life and establish a unified regime that belongs to the ninjas!"

"Only by seizing power over the nation, or even the world, can a ninja achieve financial freedom."

"..."

Hinata had long disapproved of the ninja way of life and didn't even want to identify herself as a 'ninja'.

Isn't cultivating immortality appealing?

Hinata said a lot, and these were all Hinata true feelings.

This includes perspectives on the past and outlooks on the future.

Hinata has read countless novels, especially fantasy novels and even Xuanhuan novel.

Especially in Xuanhuan novel, the number of cultivators far surpasses that of the Ninja World.

With just a little reference, one can formulate policies and systems suitable for the Ninja World.

To put it bluntly...

If a unified regime is established based on ninjas and the tax revenue of the world is controlled, the ninjas can simply receive their wages according to their abilities. Why should they have to work themselves to death to complete missions?

At first, the Five Kage didn't take Hinata's words to heart, but as Hinata described, they could naturally imagine what the future world would look like.

Although the future remains uncertain, no one can deny that if Hinata's words could come true, the ninjas' living conditions would be far better than they are now.

"Uh-huh!"

Hinata cleared her throat, gulped down a large glass of water, and then continued:

"If the Shinobi World is unified, then we can gather all our strength and look beyond the world!"

"As you may all know, the world we live in is a planet, and beyond this planet, there are countless other planets waiting for us to conquer."

"Instead of wasting our strength on internal strife, we should unite all our forces against external threats and conquer more habitable planets!"
