After all, their constant little moves in private were not completely brought to light. No further conflict broke out between Kumogakure and Iwagakure. Kirigakure and Sunagakure were still in a movie-watching mode.
Here, Konohagakure, under the order of Sarutobi Hiruzen, also chose to wait silently. The current Shinobi World situation has become more complicated due to the intrusion of Obito. In Five Great Shinobi Villages, now only Sunagakure and Kumogakure are still in a situation of 100% disbelief.
Not to mention Iwagakure and Kirigakure.
Konoha here also confirmed the survival of Obito through Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, but based on this, Sarutobi Hiruzen has a better grasp of the situation. To add to the uncertainty, if Uchiha Obito has a reason to be hostile to Konoha and Kirigakure, why not join forces with the Uchiha Clan?
No matter which way you think about it.
This is the most reasonable approach.
Why Danzo keeps insisting on this point is because it is the easiest possibility to consider.
But what is the reality?
Sarutobi Hiruzen personally prefers Obito to hate Uchiha Clan, and wants to destroy Konoha including Uchiha Clan. Taken together, everything makes sense.
But in this way, there are still things that can't be figured out, making Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's Attack, which was already full of doubts, even more complicated.
That's why.
Sarutobi Hiruzen needs some time to sort it out, and the most important thing is to collect more accurate information.
Only in this way can he make the most correct choice in the next situation.
And Konoha has this quiet and silent posture.
From the perspective of the outside world, it is also normal.
Don't say that Kumogakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure can see anything, even Iwagakure including Shōji can't see anything strange.
Because there is no example in Original Work of someone from Konoha using Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, so it is impossible for Shōji to think of this subconsciously, but Sarutobi Hiruzen actually directly used Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu to verify the previous news.
But that's not important.
As I have said before, Obito and Akatsuki are just chess pieces that can be used in Shōji's ambition plan. Although this chess piece is powerful enough to backfire on him at any time, it does not prevent Shōji from unfolding it according to his own wishes.
The same is true for Konoha.
The Sharingan on Kakashi is naturally the best that can be obtained, but if it really doesn't work, Shōji will not deliberately force it. Again, the current dominance is barely in the hands of Shōji.
His current strength is also good.
No matter what information you have.
Compared with Four Great Shinobi Villages, Obito, and Nagato, they are all one step ahead of them. Shōji can be considered to be able to arrange the layout with ease. To put it bluntly, as long as Shōji makes no mistakes, the probability of final victory is still quite high.
Of course, it's easier said than done without making mistakes.
Therefore, Shōji will pay attention to information and feedback from the outside world, but it will focus more on its own efforts.
Especially after receiving the order from Ōnoki to supervise the development of new equipment and command new troops in his ninja village, Shōji needs to focus on internal affairs. In the past, it was more or less because he avoided suspicion, so he didn't pay much attention to his village. Chakra Armor in it, as well as the development process of some new weapons (this point was made by Shōji when Chakra Armor was obtained before, instead of waiting until Land of the Sky's scientific research technology was obtained before making suggestions.)
Now under the instruction of Ōnoki.
Shōji participated in it openly.
It was also through the understanding in the previous few days that Shōji had a very detailed grasp of the extent to which his Ninja Village had achieved in the research and development and manufacturing of these new equipment.
The new weapons are still a little less interesting, but after two years of hard work, Chakra Armor has not only developed a third generation with a more complete mechanism and lower cost, but also can finally achieve assembly line production. Even if it is still limited by technical issues and cannot be truly large-scale batch production, there is still no problem in initial installation!
At present, the first batch of Chakra Armor has been installed. Although there are not many people, only two hundred people, the two hundred people equipped with Chakra Armor can be used as the previous five hundred people or even more combat power!
Because of the new Chakra Armor.
It can already be the same as the armor equipped by Nadare Rōga and others in Original Work. It not only achieves the goal of absorbing ninjutsu Chakra for defense, but also strengthens the wearer's spell strength and reduces the consumption of Chakra!
To put it bluntly, a Elite Chūnin equipped with a Chakra Armor can compete head-on with a Special Jōnin without being at a disadvantage!
"Wind Release!"
"Lightning Release"
"Fire Escape!"
"Water Release!"
"Earth Release!"
In the fifth series Ninjutsu, apart from the fact that some techniques that change the terrain cannot be effective, Chakra Armor can perfectly resist other techniques that directly affect the enemy's body, as long as the intensity is not above A-level ninjutsu.
When seeing the test scene.
Shōji also showed a look of great joy on his face.
"Very good. This intensity is enough. How is the productivity now?"
Shōji looked at Jōnin who was standing aside and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, Lord Shōji. If the current production level is made according to the highest standards, it can still only reach an average of one hundred and twenty-three pairs per month. Although there is no need to worry about the raw materials, there is still a large gap in specialized technical personnel, and the process is relatively complicated. According to the requirements of Lord Tsuchikage, it is necessary to separate as many procedures as possible. Finally, a combination, testing and inspection procedure is added, which is very troublesome."
The name Jōnin said with a hint of respect.
Hear such a yield.
Shōji made an estimate in his mind and frowned slightly. After one year, he would not be able to achieve even two thousand pairs. Judging from the current situation of Shinobi World, it may be difficult to fully equip them before the next war breaks out.
But only a second later, the brows relaxed.
It should be said that it is rare to have such an output. The reason is that the number of technical personnel is small, and there is also the process problem just mentioned by Iwagakure Ninja. In order to prevent leaks, try to ensure that Chakra Armor is not known to others as a highly confidential product, and there is an extra layer of insurance. Even after being learned, foreign enemies can not obtain all the information.
The complexity of manufacturing Chakra Armor in their village is far beyond imagination.
Division of labor is one thing, combination is another, and there is also the deliberate use of tricks in the armor. After all, in future wars, it is 100% certain that one's own ninja will die in battle, and then the armor will be obtained by the enemy.
These foreshadowings laid in advance can greatly delay the enemy from cracking and copying Chakra Armor's technology in a short period of time. This is also to ensure the interests of the own ninja village as much as possible. If we really let go of everything to manufacture, there should be no problem in doubling the output of Chakra Armor, not to mention too much!
But the current output is enough!
Anyway, it is impossible to really expect that all Iwagakure Ninjas will be equipped. As long as four or five thousand Iwagakure Ninjas are equipped with Chakra Armors, just these five thousand Iwagakure Ninjas, without the participation of high-end combat power, can at least easily push Sunagakures or Kirigakures.
You must know that the current Sunagakure is the worst period in history in terms of quality and quantity, and Kirigakure's mid- and low-level combat power during the Third Shinobi World War period was originally comparable to Konoha and Kumogakure, Iwagakure, but after the Kaguya Clan, Yuki Clan, and some small Ninja Clan were destroyed by Obito, the quality of Kirigakure also plummeted!
The strength of Chakra Armor is fully demonstrated in the plot of Snow Country in Original Work. Geniuses and strong men are only a minority in this world after all. It is even more impossible for anyone to have the halo of the protagonist. With the Iwagakure Ninja army blessed by Chakra Armor, they can definitely belong to the first sequence of existences in Shinobi World.
"Well, you don't need to pay too much attention to the output, but you must pay attention to ensuring the quality and the correctness of the process. There cannot be any deviation, and you must keep track of the whereabouts of every scientific researcher anytime and anywhere. Do you understand?"
Although some people in the scientific research team are Iwagakure Ninja, the vast majority of them are just ordinary people. In this world, when the most loyal ninja may betray the village, ordinary people need to be strictly controlled!
What needs to be more vigilant are the spies lurking in the major ninja villages in their own villages. Now that Chakra Armor has not been exposed, the major countries will naturally not pay too much attention. However, as long as Iwagakure is put on the battlefield in future wars, it will definitely attract the attention of the leaders of various countries. This is a key equipment factor that can change the situation of the war.
Some scientific researchers who have only mastered some of the technologies and processes may not need to pay too much attention. Even if they are seduced or captured by hostile people, it will be difficult to truly crack the technical difficulties of Chakra Armor. However, those cutting-edge scientific researchers who have truly mastered all the secrets of Chakra Armor must be 100% supervised and protected.
Whenever something unexpected happens to these people.
With the scientific research technology of other ninja villages, it can be easily copied in a short time. Even if it is not perfect, there will be a certain gap in quality, but it can also offset the advantages brought by their Chakra Armor.
This is a situation that Shōji cannot tolerate.
It doesn't need to be too long, as long as it can ensure that the technology is not leaked in the next few years!
"Yes, Lord Shōji!"
"By the way, there is also the choice of installation personnel. Now let's pause the progress for a while. I will make a corresponding report at Lord Tsuchikage!"
"Yes!"
Although the technology is very special, in terms of operation, this is not a particularly high-end or difficult-to-understand equipment. It does not require the equipment user to spend a long time to adapt and learn. Almost as soon as you get started, you can use it skillfully in just a few days.
From the perspective of Shōji, the installation time can be pushed back. If a batch of Iwagakure Ninja is produced and equipped, it will be easy to leak the news in advance, because once the range of personnel is expanded, you cannot ensure that these people are 100% from your own village, and there may be enemy spies among them!
This is very likely to expose Chakra Armor in advance, which will cause a lot of trouble, so the best way is to limit the Chakra Armor experiment to the two or three hundred people in front of you who are almost 100% guaranteed to be the most trustworthy Iwagakure Ninja in the village.
For the rest, when the production quantity is increased and the own ninja village is relatively ready for war, it will be completely late to equip the Iwa ninjas in the village with chakra armor on a large scale. By that time.
With the intelligence advantage in hand, the leadership of the war can be held in one's own hands!
Although the progress of Chakra Armor is not very fast, it can be said to be very smooth. In terms of new weapons, there were some troubles before. After all, Shōji is only a pure theorist who has "seen pigs running but never eaten pork". Even theorists can be considered as putting gold on Shōji's face!
At most, some effective opinions can be put forward in terms of cannons and bombs. The rest can only be figured out by the scientific researchers in the village. Shōji really only has "utopian remarks" without any support from actual theory and structure. The previous research on new weapons is really very slow.
But after Shōji brought back the scientific research results of Land of the Sky two or three months ago.
The research on new weapons suddenly opened up new ideas. Not only could they be perfectly reproduced, but they could also be further improved to create the flying equipment used by the Sky Ninjas back then, and the first generation cannons and highly destructive portable bombs were created in a very short period of time!
There is no 'ninja factor', it is purely a military technological achievement!
The blessings of these weapons and equipment may still seem very useless or even meaningless at the Jōnin level, but at the Chunin, especially Genin level, such equipment is effective!
Too many to mention.
My own Genin can fly.
And you can throw out many bombs from your arms at any time that are cheaper and easier to use than Exploding Tag.
In addition, it does not require any Chakra and technology, but it can carry out large-scale regional bombardment. You can tell me which ninja village can withstand such a bombardment in a war in which Genin and Genin are also dispatched as the main force!?
Don't think that there are so many bosses in Original Work, but looking at the entire Shinobi World, ordinary medium and Genin are the norm. It is impossible for these people to withstand the bombardment of this new weapon, and this is only the first generation. With further research and manufacturing, more stable and powerful cannons and bombs can be developed!
In addition, the weapons and equipment such as smoke bombs and flash bombs used by ninjas before can be further improved. In addition, under the suggestion of Shōji, Iwagakure Ninja will be equipped with some other specialized defensive equipment to cooperate with Chakra Armor.
What we want is to arm the Iwagakure Ninjas to their teeth!
"That means it's still a little stable now, right?"
Shōji asked while stroking the cold steel cannon in front of him and looking at a scientific researcher whose body was covered with grease.
"Yes, Lord Shōji. The biggest problem with the cannons at this stage is that they tend to explode after being fired several times. However, this is a problem of heat. We are already trying a variety of cooling methods, and some of them are already showing initial results. It can be foreseen for up to a month. Even if the problem of exploding chambers cannot be completely solved, the life of the cannon can be delayed to a great extent!"
This scientific researcher also had a respectful look Responded.
"Well, there is no need to rush, take your time, and the most important thing is to ensure stability. If the current power cannot be improved, it doesn't matter. This stage is already enough!"
Shōji nodded and said.
From the test just now.
Shōji can already clearly understand the power of this first-generation cannon. Although it is slightly stronger than the C-class Ninjutsu, compared with B-rank Ninjutsu is a little weaker, but these weapons and equipment, Shōji, have never been expected to be used against Jōnin level existences. As long as they can deal with large-area medium and Genin legions, it is enough!
C-level Ninjutsu is ready to kill!
Once they Iwagakure can pull out hundreds or even thousands of giant cannons in a positional battle where large armies are fighting, the terrifying level of fire suppression they can cover is not something that ordinary people can compare to!
And the most important thing is.
This thing does not need to consume any Chakra!
It's just pure military technology bombardment!
Taking a step back, even if the opponent has a correspondingly strong defensive Ninjutsu to block it without causing much damage, it only consumes a little resources on one's own side, which can be exchanged for the fact that the opponent's ninja army must consume a round of Chakra in advance, which is already a blood-earning result!
What Shōji has to do is tell other great powers Ninja Village.
Times have changed!
At least this is the case in mid- to low-end battles!
"Yes, Lord Shōji!"
"By the way, as for the flying equipment, what about the giant floating war fortress Land of the Sky? Can it be copied?"
"Yes, there is no problem with the single-person flying equipment. The samples have been manufactured and the corresponding tests were carried out some time ago. However, some minor instability problems are still prone to occur, such as misfiring and crashing. However, they are still in the estimated position, that is, that giant fortress. I am very sorry, Lord Shōji. At present, our technology cannot be reproduced. The technology involved is too complicated, and some important structures are difficult to overcome immediately even if there is corresponding analysis. The most important thing is the issue of flight power. There is no very detailed record in it. It only says that it is a special kind of ore burning energy, but it can be tested. We have tried it, but it cannot be supported. At present, we have not found a suitable energy source to replace it!"
For the first time, this scientific researcher looked distressed, shook his head, and said with a hint of apology.
"Motivation?"
Shōji raised his eyebrows when he heard these words. This is indeed a big problem. If the energy problem required for power cannot be solved, even if a giant fortress is created, it will be useless if it cannot fly.
'It seems that we still need to find a suitable time to bring back that ready-made flying fortress! '
Shōji thought secretly in his heart.
If there is a specimen that can be decomposed and analyzed, it will be easier to understand and understand other people's techniques.
'Or that Star Stone can also be used to try it out, but I don't know if adaptability and stability will be a problem! '
Shōji touched his chin and considered it silently in his heart.
If only this could be done.
It can be regarded as making the best use of everything.
However, it is just an idea now. Whether it can be implemented later depends on the specific situation and operations.
"Then there's more to come..."
For more than half a month, Shōji was very rare and did not conduct his own training and experiments. He stayed near the scientific research base in his Ninja Village and focused on this aspect of work.
This is a stage where time is needed.
If they can prepare a little more, they Iwagakure can have a better chance of winning in the war that may break out next.
Chakra Armor.
New weapons such as cannons and bombs.
Flying equipment and giant floating fortresses.
There are also other specialized defense equipment.
After receiving and absorbing the scientific research and technological achievements of Land of the Sky, the scientific research level of Iwagakure also directly entered the stage of take-off.
in the coming time.
Shōji's own life has also become three points and one line, scientific research base - laboratory - training ground!
Make corresponding work reports to Ōnoki from time to time.
The entire Iwagakure also entered the precipitation period.
As for Shinobi World, it is also because each major country has its own goals and intentions, and has also entered a temporary period of peace.
ushered in a rare peaceful phase.
On the contrary, it makes those small countries scattered around the world feel a little bit uncomfortable, but this is exactly what they expect to see, even though they know very well that this is only a temporary calm before the storm, just like the previous three Shinobi World War, the longer the peace lasts, the more intense the war that will break out, but these are not what they can control in the first place.
Being able to enjoy a more stable period of time is the best result.
No one will deliberately cause trouble during this period of time.
Akatsuki, including Obito and Nagato, has also entered a period of silence. Nagato must seize this period to make himself more proficient in Rinnegan. Obito must also try its best to provide some personnel and material assistance to the organization.
The capture phase of Tailed Beast in the 'Eye of the Moon' project can no longer be postponed to such a later time as in Original Work!
Plans that must be carried out in advance.
in the next few months.
Obito also goes all over the world to find people who can be supportive and recruit them into the organization.
This includes Original Work, which is Hidan who became a formal member.
There is another Original Work who did not join the organization, but in this life, due to the scarcity of personnel, Hiruko was absorbed into the organization by Obito!
That's right, it's the scientific madman who is friends with Konoha Sannin and developed Chimera Technique, whose scientific research level is only inferior to Orochimaru!
