The Real Shinobi World! The Real Ninja Clans!

"So, you still insist on your ideas?"

Shikaku Nara stared fixedly at Naruto Uzumaki, truly hoping he would change his mind.

"Yes, Mr. Shikaku. I hope the Ninja Academy graduation age can be postponed until fifteen,

and that they can be taught some other Ninjutsu besides the Three Jutsu, increasing their chances of survival after graduation;

that some C-rank Ninjutsu exchange privileges be opened to all Genin of Konohagakure, and some B-rank Ninjutsu exchange privileges be opened to all Chunin,

so long as they complete a certain number of missions of each rank, they can gain the qualifications to learn the corresponding Ninjutsu;

if possible, I also hope that as long as someone becomes a Registered Ninja of Konohagakure, they can first choose one C-rank Ninjutsu to learn for free.

Besides that, I hope Konohagakure can establish clear rules stating that children under fifteen are not allowed to participate in battle until the number of adult ninja deaths exceeds one-third,

and that children under ten are not allowed to appear on the battlefield until the Hokage dies in battle.

Of course, I came up with all of this by myself, so there may be problems. Mr. Shikaku, we can discuss them one by one and revise them gradually..."

Naruto Uzumaki pulled out a sheet of paper from the desk, covered in suggestions and hopes he had carefully written down one by one. As he explained, he handed it to Shikaku Nara.

Shikaku Nara rubbed his brow in frustration and did not even take the paper. He knew this seven-year-old Lord Hokage was unreliable, but he had never expected his ideas to be this outrageous.

Just from hearing these few proposals, he could already picture the scene of every Ninja Clan flying into a rage.

As a relatively open-minded Clan Head himself, even he could not help harboring some reservations about these proposals. That was not to mention those old-fashioned Ninja Clan diehards who only wanted to take more for themselves and still regarded all Civilian Ninja as household servants!

"Lord Hokage, this is very, very difficult! The vast majority of Jonin will oppose it..."

Shikaku Nara tried to persuade him once more.

"I know. That's why I need your help!"

Naruto Uzumaki gave him an embarrassed, "honest" smile, pressed his palms together, and pleaded sweetly with Shikaku.

"Mr. Shikaku, how much do you think these need to be changed before everyone can barely accept them?

Let's discuss it. We can change a little this time;

then change a little more next time after some time has passed. We'll take it slowly and let everyone adapt gradually. We can always make it happen...

I'm only seven right now, so I'm not in a hurry!"

???

Shikaku Nara froze for a moment, then nearly laughed in anger at this seven-year-old brat.

Was this some kind of joke? He was the head of the Nara Clan! The Nara Clan was one of Konohagakure's major Ninja Clans too!

"Please! Mr. Shikaku..."

Seven-year-old Naruto squirmed about in his chair as he acted cute, gazing at Shikaku Nara with pleading eyes. At this moment, he did not look like a Hokage at all!

"..."

Shikaku Nara slapped a hand against his forehead, his expression as bitter as a gourd. This was far too unexpected. Could this guy have even a shred of Hokage dignity?

Deep and calculating, cunning and vicious, sincere and kind, childish and innocent... and shameless besides. Which one was the real Naruto Uzumaki?

"All right, all right, sit properly!"

Shikaku had a headache. After thinking seriously for a while, he finally said slowly,

"No matter how the Ninja Clans obstruct it, because of their numerical advantage, the gradual rise of Civilian Ninja is unstoppable in the long run. As Hokage, you have a responsibility to mediate the relationship between Ninja Clans and Civilian Ninja.

I hope that in Konohagakure's future, the powers of these two camps can gradually merge into a single whole, rather than letting their conflict constantly intensify and brew the bloody tragedy of a Civil War."

"You've decided to help me?" Naruto revealed a brilliant smile.

"Hmph!"

Shikaku snorted and defended himself.

"I'm not helping you. I'm helping myself, considering the Nara Clan's long-term future!"

"Hahaha, it's fine. Also..."

Naruto laughed heartily while scratching the back of his head, then immediately pushed his luck.

"Also?"

This time, Shikaku Nara really could not hold it in. He nearly slammed the table.

"This shouldn't be a major problem. It's just a little strange. A few days ago, I discovered that a huge number of all sorts of assets had suddenly appeared under my name.

I went to ask about it, and they all said it was a perfectly normal transfer of assets. For the details, they told me to consult the Hokage's Office."

Remembering the astronomical figure represented by those assets, Naruto felt slightly dizzy despite his personality of not caring much about money or profit.

"You mean those assets?" Shikaku Nara smiled and asked him,

"You should know that the various Ninja Clans do not rely solely on mission rewards to make a living, right?"

Naruto Uzumaki nodded. "Of course I know. I know the Nara Clan deals in medicinal herbs, the Yamanaka Clan runs flower shops, and the Akimichi Clan has barbecue restaurants!"

"What about the other Ninja Clans? The Uchiha Clan, the Hyuga Clan, the Sarutobi Clan, and so on?"

With a sigh, Shikaku Nara lifted another veil from the real world before Naruto Uzumaki. It was also his final attempt to persuade him.

"As Ninja Clans large and small that have controlled the Shinobi World's strongest and only armed force since ancient times, they rarely operate industries themselves.

However, merchants engaged in every kind of industry must obtain the protection of one or more Ninja Clans, and pay the corresponding share of their income to the Ninja Clans protecting them.

This stable income is another foundation for the development and continuation of the Ninja Clans.

In theory, it is protection. But in essence, merchants in every trade pledge themselves to Ninja Clans and rely on their unparalleled military power to gain the right to operate monopolies.

So long as a Ninja Clan does not fall, the corresponding merchant family can also pass down its legacy forever.

Their relationship is like that between Konohagakure and the daimyo and nobles of the Land of Fire!

With Chakra, a power that ordinary civilians have absolutely no means of resisting, serving as protection,

the children of Ninja Clans grow up to become ninja, the children of merchants grow up to become merchants, the children of daimyo grow up to become daimyo, and the children of nobles grow up to become nobles...

It is not that Ninja Clans cannot directly replace daimyo, nobles, and merchants of every kind. There is simply no need. As long as they control the power of Chakra, they are the irreplaceable absolute core.

On the contrary, some Ninja Clans in history spread themselves too thin in other fields. Because they neglected training, the ninja strength within their clans declined, and they were ultimately destroyed and replaced by other families that focused solely on the path of ninja.

That huge batch of assets of yours came from this. You defeated Hiruzen Sarutobi head-on and replaced him as Hokage. This is what you deserve, and it is also one of the foundations for the future development and continuation of the Uzumaki Clan...

Who Chakra and Ninjutsu are taught to determines how benefits are distributed across the entire Shinobi World.

Lord Hokage, you may have thought that your previous proposals and ideas only needed to face some old-fashioned, outdated Ninja Clans.

But in reality, you are challenging the world order that operates around Ninja Clans.

What you need to face is the entire world!"

A person's creations cannot escape the influence of the real world. The true rules governing the world hidden behind the Naruto World are essentially close to those of a modern island nation.

Such supplementary background settings are perfectly reasonable, right?
