Is this what the teachers at the Ninja Academy are teaching now?

Madara Uchiha was a little confused. In the years he'd been away from Konoha, had Konoha even changed the textbooks for the Ninja Academy?

Productivity, mathematics, physics, and chemistry. What are these terms? He'd never heard of them before.

"They're not even teaching Shuriken throwing anymore?"

"Don't the teachers at the Ninja Academy teach you ninja combat techniques? How will you carry out mercenary missions in the future? This Ninja world is very dangerous, you rogue ninja, you wandering samurai."

"When I was young, I was already using Shuriken age."

Madara Uchiha wanted to curse, "What kind of system is this? They don't teach this, they don't teach that! Can the students produced by this Ninja Academy even be called ninjas?"

Did they only teach you a method for refining Chakra?

"Wow, that's amazing. Is Grandpa a powerful ninja?"

Madara Uchiha began to recount his glorious achievements in his youth. Itou Sousuke listened with rapt attention. He too longed to become a powerful ninja, capable of protecting Konoha in the future, but unfortunately, his talent was simply too poor.

The Ninja Academy now implements a ninja stream system, initially selecting those with poor talent, no Ninjutsu talent, low combat awareness, and low Chakra capacity—those who can only become low- Genin —and having them refine their Chakra for a few years, learn theoretical knowledge such as basic mathematics, physics, chemistry, and most importantly, ideology and politics.

As for Ninjutsu, learning the basic Three Techniques — Clone Technique, Transformation Technique, and Substitution Technique —and adding an advanced version —Shadow Clone with a physical form—is enough.

Even after graduation, at the very least, they can work as laborers on construction sites or as skilled workers in factories. These people will be the cornerstone of Konoha's future expansion and development, and can be readily transitioned into grassroots management positions within the country—each one is literate, resolute, and possesses rich experience in grassroots work.

In the future, Konoha will inevitably have to turn against those insects from the Land of Fire. Overthrowing the old world cannot rely solely on Konoha's few powerful ninjas.

These weak Genin will certainly play a role no less significant than Konoha's jonin in the future. They constitute the vast majority of Konoha, and even the entire Ninja world; they are the foundation of the ninja world.

A single spark can start a prairie fire.

As for the Shuriken used by ninjas in combat, what use are they, who can only become Genin ninjas, to learn this stuff? It would be better to let Tobirama Senju spend his time developing firearms and mass-producing them for low-level combatants. Using guns is more practical. They can't fight high-level combatants, but they can Chunin Genin one by one.

"Hmph, of course. Back in my day, I was a Jonin, and I didn't even put him in my eyes. It was that Hashirama, cough cough cough."

Itou Sousuke's eyes sparkled. For some reason, Madara Uchiha seemed to enjoy the praise from a child, and he became more and more enthusiastic, omitting some names that shouldn't be mentioned. Madara Uchiha himself was a legend, and simply recounting his life story was enough to impress the little boy Itou Sousuke.

"It's such a pity about my talent."

"When I enrolled, the Ninja Academy had already examined the students' talents. Only those with those talents were qualified to receive professional ninja training."

Which boy doesn't dream of being a hero? But life is always cruel. Not every Genin can become Might Guy. Itou Sousuke was a little dejected. Faced with Madara Uchiha's question, he explained the current system of the Ninja Academy.

After listening, Madara Uchiha's eyes showed curiosity. As an old man from the Warring States Period, he was a true old fogey and couldn't understand the meaning behind Uchiha Nan's actions at all.

Wasting precious resources training Genin ninjas is a losing proposition.

"Wasting precious resources to train Genin, the Third Hokage of Konoha, huh?"

Madara Uchiha didn't finish his sentence, but the implication was clear: the Third Hokage, Uchiha Nan, was an idiot in this regard.

"Grandpa, the Lord Hokage said that the Ninja world needs a revolution. Every ninja in Konoha will be given a different revolutionary mission because of their different abilities, but there is no distinction between big and small revolutionary missions."

Itou Sousuke's face showed a defiant expression. Clearly, Madara Uchiha's words had hurt Itou Sousuke's pride, so he quoted Uchiha Nan's words from the Little Red Book to retaliate against Madara Uchiha.

"Interesting. Revolution."

Madara Uchiha Madara Uchiha savored the words carefully Madara Uchiha. The word "revolution" was one he had never heard before, but he understood its meaning.

Revolution, revolution against whom?

Is this the fate of a ninja?

Madara Uchiha had already heard the rumors that Uchiha Nan had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan before he came to Konoha.

The earth-shattering battle in which Uchiha Nan became the Third Hokage of Konoha was so famous that it was impossible for him not to be remembered.

What interesting things is the Third Hokage doing? Is he trying to overthrow the entire Ninja world?

Uchiha who awakens the Mangekyō Sharingan —wouldn't that be a bit much?

Madara Uchiha knew all too well the darkness one had to endure to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan. This was one of the sources of Madara Uchiha's confidence that he could persuade Uchiha Nan to join the Moon's Eye Plan. Having experienced extreme pain, the Uchiha found it very difficult to resist the temptation to build a perfect world.

Perhaps Uchiha Nan was also plotting something. It's unknown whether he had even seen that stone tablet.

Madara Uchiha with a myriad of thoughts, wanting to take this opportunity to learn more about Uchiha Nan.

"What else did your Third Hokage say?"

"Lord Hokage once said, contradictions are universal and are the fundamental driving force of the development of things."

The biggest contradiction in the Ninja world is its underdeveloped productivity, which cannot meet the people's needs. New-era ninjas cannot be confined to the old-school style.

Itou Sousuke took out the textbook issued by the school. The red cover had the four bright gold characters "Will of Fire" on it that were particularly eye-catching. He liked the book very much. Although many of the theories in it were too profound for him to understand at the moment, this did not stop Itou Sousuke from regarding the theories in this little red book as truth.

"Grandpa, this book was personally written by the Third Hokage."

Can I take a look?

Madara Uchiha took the little red book from Itou Sousuke and eagerly flipped to the first page. To persuade Uchiha Nan, he had to thoroughly understand Uchiha Nan's thoughts, find flaws and loopholes in his thinking, and finally completely break through his worldview. This would be the best time for him to reshape Uchiha Nan's thinking.

"The future of the Ninja world rests on your shoulders; I will move forward. The road is winding, but the future is bright."

"."

"Peace in the Ninja world is a long-term goal, one that we may not be able to achieve in fifty or a hundred years. Or perhaps it is an eternal topic, but we need not believe that humanity's desire for a better life is always endless."

The most important thing is the road problem: a road is essential for developing productivity.

"Ninjas of the old era."

"."

Madara Uchiha sat on a stool eating a roasted sweet potato, his mind and body unknowingly drawn to the little red booklet in front of him.

"Chiyo, how's the big restaurant in Konoha? Is the food really that good?"

"It's absolutely delicious!"

As soon as Uchiha Nan got off work, he took Chiyo straight to the most luxurious restaurant in Konoha. The company-funded food and drink was really great. Nowadays, consumerism is rampant in Konoha, and the atmosphere of the hotel has been corrupted by those nobles. In order to show off their wealth and extravagance, they keep throwing money away.

The hotel owner naturally accommodated them, and following Uchiha Nan's example, he also implemented a VIP system. Only VIPs were qualified to use the top-floor private rooms, and the price of each dish was increased by a zero. Whether it tasted good or not was secondary; the price was too low to be of any interest to those nobles.

As the Hokage of Konoha, the head of a powerful Clan Head with a strong bloodline, and a hidden tycoon in Konoha, Uchiha Nan even felt the pinch of spending money on a meal in a private room. He had become rich too quickly, and his demeanor hadn't kept up. He should have remained as frugal as before.

When receiving Chiyo, a high-ranking foreign guest from Sunagakure, it's natural to be particular about the pomp and circumstance, and a private room for dinner is a must.

It doesn't matter, though, since Konoha is paying for it this time, so it won't cost me any of my own money.

Hmph! These hotel shady dealers are raising prices, Uchiha Nan has a good plan: increase taxes. In the end, they'll have to hand over a portion of all the money they make to Konoha!

Chiyo was slightly tipsy, her steps were slow and a little shaky. The bill that Uchiha Nan had just paid had almost scared her to death. If Uchiha Nan hadn't been paying today, Chiyo felt that she would have definitely skipped out on the bill and never set foot in this hotel again.

After settling the bill, the hotel owner personally saw her off and respectfully handed Chiyo a black card. Lord Hokage must be a big shot in the Ninja world; how could they be short of money?

Chiyo smiled as she accepted the black card, saying, "Next time for sure, next time for sure."

Sigh, it was delicious. It's just a shame I don't have the money. This was my first time eating it, and probably the last.

"This is Konoha's most bustling night market, still brightly lit up, and it probably won't quiet down until midnight."

The grand hotel was naturally located in the area with the highest foot traffic, and right outside the door was a bustling scene of cars and people. Uchiha Nan thoughtfully gave Chiyo a brief introduction.

"That's really something."

Chiyo walked along, muttering something to herself, her eyes darting around.

Neon lights illuminated the night sky of Konoha.

The streets were bustling with people, filled with the cries of vendors and the laughter of customers. The shops were beautifully decorated, their glass facades gleaming under the lights, making even Chiyo, a Jonin from Sunagakure, feel somewhat ashamed. She thought the things sold here must be incredibly expensive. Not being able to afford them, and remembering the exorbitant bills at the restaurant, Chiyo decisively abandoned the idea of going inside.

But women are naturally inclined to go shopping, Chiyo kept looking around as she walked, always thinking about buying something. She just regretted that she didn't have enough money.

When could one ever see such a scene in Sunagakure? Chiyo thought of the nights in Sunagakure, when it was pitch black. Every now and then, a dry, cold wind would whip up fine sand outside the door, which would creak and groan against the wooden door, as if some creature was lurking outside.

It's true that powerful desert beasts would occasionally attack the village. After all, this is a ninja world with extraordinary powers. When Hagoromo Otsutsuki traveled the Ninja world, he eliminated many evil monsters that threatened humanity.

Desert nights are always cold, silent, and dangerous. People struggle to survive in this extreme environment, and even ninjas band together to form villages like Sunagakure.

This is the difference between heaven and hell. Chiyo sighed inwardly; the gap between Konoha and Sunagakure was indeed vast.

Chiyo was there, lamenting the passing of spring and the coming of autumn, recalling the tragic past of Sunagakure, when Uchiha Nan's attention was drawn to a ding-dong sound in his mind.

"Ding-dong!"

[Long-term mission: A prodigal son's return is more precious than gold. Help Madara Uchiha see through the lies, genuinely repent for his mistakes, and become a member of Konoha again.]

Cough cough cough!!

What kind of crazy mission is this?!

He wasn't Hashirama Senju; he simply didn't have the strength to defeat Madara Uchiha Madara Uchiha. Why should he reason with him if he didn't beat him up first?

Uchiha Nan really understands the nature of the Uchiha; your logic is directly proportional to your fighting strength.

If you can't beat me, it means your reasoning isn't as sound as mine, and everything you say is wrong. If everything you said were right, you would definitely be able to beat me.

It's a very simple and unadorned set of values: might makes right, and force is justice.

What worried Uchiha Nan the most was—had Madara Uchiha already arrived in Konoha?

After so much time and effort, Uchiha Nan had already realized that the system wouldn't issue tasks casually.

Generally, the system will only issue quests when you encounter special characters or trigger special story prerequisites (of course, sometimes it will issue some ridiculous or shameless quests).

For example, as soon as I transmigrated here, the system gave me the mission to become Hokage. After becoming Hokage, it gave me a series of missions to develop Konoha. And when I met Mosa last time, the system gave me the same mission about improving the environment of Sunagakure.

This was truly a hellish experience.

Uchiha Nan grew increasingly fearful as he thought about it. If he were to face Madara Uchiha at this time, he would definitely be instantly killed, even though Madara Uchiha was now old and had already gone blind in one eye.

But when it comes to dealing with oneself, what difference does it make whether one has one more eye or one less?

If Uchiha could Susanoo Shisui only one eye, then Madara Uchiha would be even more capable. It wouldn't be surprising for Uchiha Nan to activate the complete Susanoo with only one eye.

Who told him to call himself Madara Uchiha?

This master brought the Uchiha to an unprecedented peak. In thousands of years of history, perhaps only Indra, the ancestor, could rival Madara Uchiha.

Madara Uchiha even has the image of his lover, Hashirama Senju, tattooed on his chest. The bonds of love are finally complete! He's shouting "For the future of the Ninja world, Hashirama! Ahhhhh!!!!"

Behold my Susanoo a giant Buddha. Using this against myself would be utterly horrific.

We can't fight them, we absolutely can't fight them!

After a moment's thought, Uchiha Nan realized that surrendering was the only option left, as there was absolutely no hope of winning.

It's nothing, it's nothing. These are just my own guesses and wild thoughts.

Uchiha Nan comforted himself, thinking that at this time, Madara Uchiha would definitely still be in the dark underground cave trying to awaken the Rinnegan, so why would he casually run into Konoha?

The butterfly effect couldn't possibly be this ridiculous!

I went fishing yesterday afternoon, but came up empty-handed the whole afternoon.

I was so tired last night, physically and mentally exhausted. I had no energy to write. I had to get up early this morning to write, what a miserable experience.

And a special thank you to Emperor Dark Star for the 500-point donation!!

I'm still working hard on the front lines of writing during the National Day holiday, Seeking Subscription!
