The three-person team led by Uchiha Hokuto acted very efficiently. As soon as they came out of the ancient ruins, they rushed to Land of Night and handed all kinds of documents found in the ruins into the hands of Yayoi.
When Yayoi took these documents from Uchiha Hokuto, he inadvertently saw Izayoi looking at him resentfully, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
You shouldn't have offended the other person, right?
Yayoi couldn't figure it out. He didn't pay much attention to such a trivial matter. Maybe it was because he was on his menstrual period.
"This is the reward for this mission."
Yayoi takes out a check for fifty million taels and can withdraw the money from any bank Land of Night.
Hokuto got the check and left Tenshu Tower with Meirou and Izayoi without too much nonsense as usual.
After watching the trio leave, Yayoi picked up these documents and started reading them with great interest.
"Zero-Tails... it turns out to be this thing."
Yayoi turned over the research information on a scroll, which mentioned a biological weapon idea called 'Zero-Tails'.
Zero-Tails, this thing is not unfamiliar to him.
This creature is not from this manga, but a Tailed Beasts-like creature that appeared in the movie version of "Naruto Shippuden: Bonds".
Judging from the remaining research data, this ancient country once tried to make biological weapons, but was ultimately limited by technology and resources and failed to successfully build 'Zero-Tails'.
Although the content of the information is seriously incomplete, it does not mean that it is unimportant.
If his guess is correct, in the future without his intervention, this information will most likely fall into the hands of Land of Sky. By then, Land of Sky will not only successfully build the powerful biological weapon 'Zero-Tails', but will also use it as an important energy source to run Sky Fortress.
It's just that in this era, Yayoi has not heard that Ninja World has a country called Land of Sky. Whether this country will be born in the future is also unknown.
Because in addition to the research materials of 'Zero-Tails', the documents brought by Hokuto also include a large number of design drawings, which are the original design drawings of Sky Fortress.
But Yayoi found that this design drawing was also incomplete. The technicians who designed Sky Fortress probably just drew the drawings first, and before they had time to put it into practice, the country perished early in the war.
This country is called 'Land of Song' and it was a country more than 400 years ago.
There is not much introduction to it in the literature, only a few strokes, but judging from these remaining research materials and design drawings, it is clear that this is a country that pays attention to scientific research and technology.
"If it is put into development, it will be two big projects."
Irori After reading these research materials and design drawings, considering Land of Night's current development, it would be difficult to invest in research.
Especially the initial investment will be an astronomical figure. Not to mention, Land of Night currently has many other projects that are also being developed, so we definitely cannot give up halfway.
"Well, put it away first. You will always need it in the future."
Yayoi also knows that Land of Night has many projects now. Although Zero-Tails and Sky Fortress are interested in them, there is no need to rush them.
First of all, these information and design drawings are incomplete, and it will take a lot of time just to complete them.
Moreover, Land of Night's technical researchers also need to be trained and expanded. Yayoi has no shortage of land, population, resources, and money, but only talent, no matter how many he comes, he feels that it is far from enough.
◎
Konoha 3 years, the end of February. (Land of Night 12 years)
The international situation tends to be stable, and the tense atmosphere between Five Great Nations basically no longer exists.
Time will smooth out all contradictions and conflicts, but it will also bring about new contradictions and conflicts.
The tension between countries and villages has disappeared, but internal contradictions and conflicts are not so simple to deal with.
The product of the ninja village is nothing more than the union of the ninja clan and the ninja clan, and as long as there are ninja clans, many of them were hostile to each other in the past.
In the short term, there may not seem to be a problem, but as time goes by, the imbalance caused by the division of various interests will arouse the resentment buried in their hearts, and then internal struggles will break out.
Land of Water Kirigakure Ninja Village, is the first one.
Due to internal interest disputes, it gradually evolved into armed conflicts at the end of last year. First Mizukage Byakuren had to resort to violent suppression, resulting in many casualties.
Some ninjas were even permanently erased from Ninja World.
Iwagakure of Land of Earth, Hidden Sand Village of Land of Wind, and Hidden Cloud Village of Land of Lightning, more or less internal conflicts began to arise. At first, it was just a verbal dispute, but in the end, the swords were directly used, causing many bloody incidents.
Only Konoha is stable, and all the ninja clan are harmonious and take the initiative to give face to the Senju Clan leader Hashirama.
Coupled with Konoha's second in command, Tobirama Senju, the balancing strategy was very good. Although the distribution of interests was not perfect, it still took care of the dignity of all ethnic groups.
There is only one thing that these ninjas are most controversial about.
That is, after Tobirama Senju built Ninja Academy last year, it not only recruited young children from the ninja clan, but also recruited a group of children from civilian backgrounds to teach them ninja knowledge in the Ninja Academy and teach them how to refine and use Chakra.
However, this matter is also recognized by Hashirama as Hokage.
Sarutobi Clan and Ino-Shika-Cho Clans also provided strong support behind the scenes and provided a lot of Ninjutsu information that was not inherited from the family. It can be said that they are the die-hard supporters of the two brothers Hashirama and Tobirama.
So all the major ninja clans suddenly felt that this proposal was very good. Since consultant Tobirama did this, he must have his reasons.
Moreover, even if mere civilians learn how to refine and use Chakra, they cannot threaten their status as a ninja clan, right?
Late at night, Konoha, Senju Clan family land.
Tobirama is sitting in his study room. Even in this month, he is only wearing a thin dark blue singlet and pants, with the window open, sitting in front of his desk, and in front of him is a planning document that he has just written.
--Special Assassination and Tactical Squad.
is the name of this planning document.
"Anbu..."
Tobirama picked up the tea cup that was still warm and looked at the handwritten and rather sloppy plan written by himself, showing a thoughtful look.
Konoha's development can be said to be on the right track. Although there are occasional frictions between various ethnic groups, it is not harmful. This kind of friction that does not lead to armed conflict is originally the result of his deliberate indulgence.
Friction is a good thing. If there was no friction and all the ninjas were harmonious, that would be the biggest problem.
Just draw a bottom line and vent some dissatisfaction and resentment.
At the same time, he was also thinking about Konoha's future.
Now that his elder brother Hashirama is suppressing him, the Gyūki snake god really doesn't dare to show his head.
However, his eldest brother will die sooner or later, including him.
So, if the village Konoha wants to have long-term peace and stability, it cannot place its hope on individuals. It must find a very reliable Hokage inheritance method.
Special Assassination and Tactical Squad, also referred to as Anbu by him... In his conception, this armed force directly under Hokage will be an important cornerstone to consolidate the power of Hokage.
Those who can join this force will be ninjas from various clans who can look beyond the family itself and pay attention to the safety of the village as their top priority, as well as... those civilian elites who are not affiliated with the ninja clan and come from ordinary families.
Power will never be in a vacuum.
If you don't do it now and someone realizes this in the future, this will be the biggest erosion of Hokage's power.
Therefore, he tried his best to support the 'common people', a seemingly very weak group, against all opinions.
What he values is not the present of these civilians, but the future after they grow up.
In the future, this group will be the most important force of Hokage.
If you are narrowly focused on one clan, it is just a blinding eye. You cannot see what the real core is, and you will not be able to become a real leader who leads the village forward.
"Work in this area requires careful planning. However, there is no need to rush to form this force now. We have to wait until the first batch of civilian ninjas are fully mature, and then propose this plan to the elder brother and promote its implementation."
The big waves are looking for gold, Tobirama firmly believes that as long as the base is raised, extraordinary talents will be born among the common people.
"Speaking of which, Land of Night's development model seems quite interesting. If it weren't for the general Land of Night, I wouldn't have realized so early that there is a huge force besides the ninja clan."
Tobirama thought of something, and a smile appeared on his lips unconsciously.
To a certain extent, he is referring to some development models of Land of Night, and then combining it with the current One Country, One Village system to formulate a development plan that is consistent with the current situation of Konoha.
As far as he knew, many of Land of Night's top executives were from so-called "mud-legged" backgrounds. They went back three generations and may not have any family background.
In the end, they were able to achieve this step, which is obviously due to their extraordinary talents.
He put away the Anbu planning book. He would not push forward this plan in the short term. He rubbed his swollen brows, stood up, and planned to turn off the lights and go to sleep.
Since Madara left Konoha, Hokage Advisor's work has been handled by him. Although Madara was still at Konoha, he did not perform Hokage Advisor's duties very well and just stared at his big brother.
"Lord Tobirama."
Suddenly, a dark shadow fell outside, and a steady voice came. It was a black-clothed ninja half-hidden in the shadows.
The opponent is a ninja from the Senju Clan, who was sent out by him before to lead an intelligence team to deal with an important matter.
"Have you found Madara's whereabouts?"
Tobirama turned his head, his eyes suddenly became sharp.
Madara left Konoha a few months ago. Although on the surface, Konoha did not take any action and seemed not to take it seriously, but secretly, he still conducted a thorough investigation of Madara's traces.
He felt that people like Madara must have some ulterior evil purpose to suddenly decide to leave Konoha.
Theoretically speaking, Madara's behavior is no different from betraying the village.
"I'm sorry, Lord Tobirama. We have been searching for a long time, but we can't find any trace of Madara Uchiha. He seems to have disappeared from Ninja World."
The ninja who came to report lowered his head in shame.
"No, this has nothing to do with you. Just leave it like that. There's no need to look for it anymore. It seems like that guy Madara is hiding on purpose."
Tobirama waved his hand and let the ninja go down.
Konoha needs to pay close attention to his future plans, but he cannot ignore Madara's whereabouts.
Compared to the rest of the Uchiha clan, Madara's existence is too unstable. Once Madara has any bad thoughts, it will be a disaster for the entire Konoha.
