The morning sun broke through the thin mist, illuminating the newly renovated Konoha.
The darkness that had Danzo and the greed of his advisors for decades was now gone.
Under the thunderous force of the public trial, they were completely wiped out.
On the street, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, dressed in coarse cloth sanitation worker vests, were sweeping up gravel with large brooms, their foreheads covered in sweat.
This drew laughter and vegetable scraps from passersby and children.
All of Konoha's internal and external troubles vanished into thin air under Senju Kenya's unreasonable Iron Fist!
However, destroying the old order is easy; establishing a new order is where the real test lies.
Inside the core operations conference room on the top floor of the new Hokage Building.
A massive, three-dimensional sand table depicting the entire Konoha region, spanning tens of meters in length, was placed in the center.
Tsunade, wearing the Hokage's robes, rubbed her throbbing temples and looked at the two people beside her:
" Danzo's more than 3 billion in illicit funds, as well as the funds allocated by the Chamber of Commerce, have all been deposited into the accounts."
"The resettlement of civilians and the expansion of hospitals are also progressing steadily."
Tsunade turned her head, her beautiful eyes falling on Kenya:
"You little bastard, you have enough money, but what's the next step for the village's development?"
"Are we supposed to keep making ninjas spend their Tenten finding cats and weeding for the daimyo, living off low-level missions and a few bounties?"
Shikaku Nara, standing to the side, also unfolded his folding fan and nodded solemnly.
"The mission-based mercenary model during the Third Hokage's era essentially treated ninjas as expendable mercenaries."
"The major ninja villages engage in cutthroat competition and cutthroat rivalry, with even the slightest friction triggering a major war, making them backward and vulnerable."
"A completely new way of life is needed, one that breaks free from dependence on outside nobles and daimyo."
Faced with the confusion and expectations of two Konoha High Command.
Senju Kenya casually spat the toothpick from his mouth into the trash can.
He sauntered over Earth Flow the huge Konoha sand table, wearing flip-flops, and picked up a Black Iron Wood pointer.
"Smack!"
A heavy whip lashed down on the Hokage Building in the very center of the sand table!
"Looking for a cat? Weeding? Or being a watchdog for those bloated, fat lords?!"
Kenya chuckled, his eyes gleaming with an ambitious and unrestrained light:
"I have money, I have connections, and I even have Black Iron Wood that's hard enough to shatter Amaterasu!"
"Why do we have to follow those bumpkins and practice this small-scale farming and self-sufficiency?!"
Kenya picked up his pointer and drew a huge circle on the sand table, between the Naka River basin and the surrounding wilderness:
"Times have changed, everyone!"
"Since the entire Shinobi World lacks indestructible building materials and equipment that can cut through iron like mud!"
"Then I'll turn Konoha into the sole industrial manufacturing and military monopoly core of the entire Shinobi World!"
Kenya's lips curled into a domineering, maniacal laugh, each word deliberate and forceful:
"I hereby declare that Konoha's premier comprehensive monopoly entity— 'Iron Fist Heavy Industries' —is officially established today!"
Iron Fist Heavy Industries!
Upon hearing this brand-new term, which resonated with a metallic, hardcore feel, Tsunade and Shikaku were simultaneously jolted!
" Lord Kenya, how should this heavy industry be integrated and operated?" Shikaku's eyes flashed with a sharp light, keenly sensing the aura of a revolution.
"Simple! Let professionals do what they're good at!"
With a flourish of his coaching staff, Kenya instantly finalized a blueprint for industrialization that was ahead of its time:
"First, our Senju Clan will take full responsibility for providing an unlimited supply of top-grade Black Iron Wood!"
"This wood is not only fireproof and waterproof, but when infused with Armament Haki, it becomes ten times harder than steel, making it the best material for mechanical frames and armor!"
"Second!"
Kenya's pointer slammed down on the model of the Uchiha Clan's stronghold:
"The entire Uchiha clan has moved into the heavy industry forging department! Fugaku is personally in charge!"
"Aren't they Tenten bragging about how their Fire Style is the best in the world? Then all of you go and set up a blast furnace to smelt alloys for me!"
"Using the highest temperature Great Fireball and Chakra Metal to forge Black Iron Wood, we will create the most durable alloy battle vehicle and blast-proof armor in the entire Shinobi World!"
"Third!"
The pointer slammed down on the Akimichi Clan's territory:
"The entire Akimichi Clan multiplies! They transform into humanoid heavy cranes and steam rollers!"
"He's in charge of heavy material handling and foundation compaction. Anyone who slacks off will have their 'secret recipe barbecue' quota docked!"
"Fourth!"
Kenya looked at Kato Yosuke behind him:
" The Iron Fist Chamber of Commerce is responsible for nationwide dumping and supply chain coordination!"
"Sell our heavy engineering vehicles, alloy armor, and black iron barricades to the Land of Fire, the Land of Water, Land of Wind at a hundred times the exorbitant price!"
"Drain their national treasury and make them beg us to buy their equipment!"
This is a berserk concept that completely combines Ninjutsu, Kekkei Genkai, and modern industrial assembly lines.
This completely shattered Tsunade and Shikaku's traditional values!
Do they think the Uchiha are skilled welders?
Are they treating the Akimichi Clan like human-shaped heavy excavators?
Using the Senju Wood Release as a raw material supply chain?
This idea is so outrageous it's practically out of this world, but upon closer examination... its feasibility is actually 100%!
"Genius... This is simply a groundbreaking achievement that will reshape the landscape of the Shinobi World!"
Shikaku Nara excited that he was trembling all over, and his folding fan was almost smoking from shaking.
Once Iron Fist Heavy Industries is operational, Konoha will completely control all the industrial high ground and the lifeline of the arms trade in the Shinobi World!
Just three days later.
On the vast wasteland of several thousand acres along the banks of the Naka River.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The deafening roar of machinery and the powerful howls shattered the tranquility of Konoha!
Dozens of enormous, multiplied Akimichi Titans were running and crisscrossing, carrying massive steel beams weighing tens of thousands of kilograms on their shoulders.
Hundreds of Uchiha ninjas, shirtless, stood in unison before a massive blast furnace, spewing forth raging flames that soared into the Kakkō!
Thousands of towering black chimneys and heavy forging workshops rose from the ground!
Thick smoke billowed, metal clashed, and heat waves surged into the sky!
Konohagakure has completely bid farewell to the backward agricultural ninja era and stepped into the era of heavy industry with a domineering and arrogant attitude!
Kenya, wearing brightly colored floral shorts, leaned against the newly assembled First heavy-duty stamping press.
He puffed on his white jade pipe, gazing contentedly at the bustling industrial wonder before him.
However.
Just as Kenya was about to happily take a puff of smoke...
"Call--!"
Amidst the billowing dust of the distant construction site, a blindingly bright green storm, accompanied by an extremely loud roar, tore through the air and hurtled towards us!
Might Guy's figure, flashing with gleaming white teeth, shot down from mid-air like a green meteor!
