The Natural Order of Things

The moment the number of five thousand Combat Ninja was mentioned, the Genji immediately began to calculate.
According to the current organization of Kirigakure, the total number of Combat Ninja is less than three thousand. In just ten years, it will not be a problem for the total number of Combat Ninja to exceed five thousand.
But that's not how the accounts are calculated.
At first glance, it seems that Kirigakure suffered a loss, but after a moment's thought, Genji realized that the benefits of Kirigakure transforming into the Capital of Water were also obvious.
This is equivalent to transforming from a local private enterprise into a central state-owned enterprise.
Behind them, they now have a powerful backer, giving them a strong support to rely on when facing stronger opponents they can't defeat by sheer numbers.
There's no need to worry about waking up one day to find Konoha's Ninja Army at the city gates, with your subordinates offering their heads as a celebratory gift to welcome the royal army.
With the elder brother of Konoha lying low, the other ninja village leaders, after a moment's thought, stopped pondering.
The development of Konoha over the years has completely dispelled their thoughts of resistance.
Even those within the village who resented Konoha's domineering ways were ousted from the leadership and subsequently disappeared without a trace.
Whether they live or die, only heaven and earth know.
The leadership doesn't want to be reported to Konoha right now.
Those ravenous Uchiha ninjas were all incredibly eager for merit. Before discovering the Mana Continent, they hadn't earned any merit for a long time and were so bored they were practically lying down.
Over the past few years, thanks to the Uchiha ninjas' active patrols to investigate "voices of injustice" in the Ninja World, the area has been peaceful and tranquil.
As the Ninja World's economy rapidly develops, darkness is also rapidly spreading.
Many local criminal organizations were destroyed by the spontaneously formed Uchiha squad. With the Sharingan's powerful intelligence gathering ability, they followed the clues and cleaned up many evil ninja village leaders.
The Uchiha, who disdained bullying the weak and cherished their reputation, truly earned a good name in the region.
In many villages and towns, the Gunbai Clan Crest, the fan, was enshrined. Seeing this, Uchiha Shrine of all sizes sprang up like mushrooms after rain, spreading across the Ninja World Continent.
This further fueled the Uchiha squad's enthusiasm, making them treat the Ninja World Continent as their own backyard, and seeing all the parasites as simply dead!
Ignorance can be blissful, but knowing the strength of the Uchiha and still acting arrogantly will only attract the wrath of those stubborn Uchiha guys if someone reports it!
Debts must be repaid, and murderers must pay with their lives—this is a matter of course!
The ninjas sitting in the conference room now are all impeccable, strong individuals who are dedicated to their duties.
"Now that everyone has no more questions, let's move on to the next thing."
Uchiha Takeyasu looked at the silent group, nodded in satisfaction, and continued.
"Of course, your villages won't completely disappear; they will exist in the Ninja World in another form."
"Within your respective provinces, you are permitted to establish your own Ninja Academy. At the same time, within Konoha, you are also allowed to come and establish Ninja Academy to spread the will of each village."
Upon hearing this, the disheartened man suddenly raised his head, his eyes burning with hope for the future.
As long as he can establish Ninja Academy, the Will of Stone passed down through generations of Iwagakure can continue to be passed down, and he can say that he has done right by the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure.
Han wasn't the only one who thought of this; the other ninja villages did too.
"However, isn't His Leader worried that the system will become too deeply entrenched and difficult to control?"
Hanzo of the Salamander didn't believe that future ninjas would act dutifully. However, when he looked up and saw the twenty or so Uchiha bearing the Uchiha Gunbai Clan Crest, all of them at least belonging to the Morning Star Uchiha, all his doubts were resolved.
Having great strength is truly remarkable!
He could even imagine that when they were promoting the Will of Rain and the Will of Wind, the Will of Fire would most likely jump out from the sidelines.
Furthermore, Konoha's Education Department is not just for show; while it permits them to establish Ninja Academy, it does not say that they are not subject to the Education Department's jurisdiction.
As long as a few Uchiha are sent out, all schemes and tricks will be a joke.
