Simultaneous Transmigration: Starting from Naruto, I'll conquer the crossover anime/manga secti

Chapter 287 The New Ninja Village Established by Yang Cheng!

The Land of the Sea in the Naruto world.

Today, the coast of the Sea Kingdom is filled with a large number of ships, and the coast is bustling with people, as lively as a festival.

Although the Sea Kingdom is primarily a fishing nation, most of the residents living near the coast are impoverished fishermen.

After all, fishing at sea is quite dangerous, even for experienced fishermen.

The weather at sea is extremely unpredictable; a moment's carelessness can lead to shipwreck and loss of life.

As for why the coast of the Sea Kingdom is so lively today, and why even some wealthy families from the inland areas of the Sea Kingdom have gathered here, there are actually reasons for this.

Today is the annual recruitment day for ninjas by the Hidden Sea Village, and the reason so many people are gathered on the coast is to become ninjas in the Hidden Sea Village on the Demon Realm Island.

That's right. Ever since the original daimyo of the Sea Kingdom was assassinated two years ago, and his illegitimate daughter succeeded him as the new daimyo, the entire Sea Kingdom has been completely transformed.

Compared to the previous daimyo who only exploited and oppressed the people, the newly enthroned daimyo, Lord Kaiyo, can be described as a benevolent and wise ruler.

Although he was only seventeen years old, he reformed the various laws of the Sea Kingdom, not only implementing various policies to benefit the people, but also encouraging the fishing industry and promoting exports.

Besides the new daimyo who possesses both ability and skill, the biggest change in their Land of the Sea is that they now have their own ninja village!

Lord Yangcheng came to the Land of the Sea two years ago. Seeing the poverty and desolation of the Land of the Sea, he eventually decided to establish a ninja village there.

Because it is located within the Land of the Sea, this ninja village is also named Umihime Village, and Lord Yōjō was the first Umikage.

As is well known, there are hundreds of countries of all sizes in the ninja world, but less than 10% of them have their own ninja villages.

Having a ninja village is equivalent to a country possessing a certain level of military strength. Even if the two countries go to war, the other side will have to think twice because of this.

This is why some small countries, despite having only a handful of ninjas within their borders, still refer to themselves as ninja villages.

When Lord Yoshinori first established the Hidden Sea Village and recruited ninjas from the Land of the Sea, the people of the Land of the Sea thought that the so-called Hidden Sea Village was probably just a small group of a few people disguised as a "ninja village".

Even Lord Yangcheng and his ilk may have been hired by the new daimyo, Lord Haiyao, to establish the ninja village in order to boost morale within the country and deter foreign powers.

After all, the assassination of the original daimyo caused some turmoil in the country, and when Lady Haiyao, a concubine's daughter, came to power, she faced a lot of opposition.

However, it was only when a pirate crew led by several rogue ninjas saw the increasingly prosperous Land of the Sea and attempted to plunder them that they witnessed the Hidden Sea Village take action for the first time.

The Hidden Sea Village was far more powerful than they had imagined, especially since Lord Yangcheng, who looked like just a child, was incredibly strong.

With a single slash, the sea was instantly split in two. The fleeing traitors and pirates didn't even have a chance to struggle; their ships and crew were cleaved in two!

Since then, the people of the Land of the Sea have begun to trust the newly established Hidden Sea Village, and under Yang Cheng's persuasion, some of their children have become Hidden Sea Village ninjas.

To the surprise of the residents of the Land of the Sea, those who were taken to the Demon Island returned as ninjas, and their strength was quite impressive. This caused an uproar throughout the Land of the Sea.

Although being a ninja is dangerous, it remains the highest-status profession in the ninja world.

If you can be a ninja, who would want to be a fisherman? What's with all the danger? Does being a fisherman mean you're not at risk of drowning at sea?

Because of the excellent example set before them, in just two years, Haiyin Village has grown from a small group of only Yang Cheng to a size of nearly a hundred people.

Among them, the number of Jonin so far is only limited to Yuhi and Akakō, who were personally bio-modified by Yōsei.

There are only about ten Chunin, who were personally selected by Yang Cheng from the Land of the Sea. They were the first batch of people to become ninjas of the Hidden Sea Village.

As for the rest of the people, they were all at the level of Genin.

Moreover, because it is a small ninja village, compared to the five great ninja villages, the number of their Jonin and Chunin is actually quite high.

Even so, it is quite astonishing that the Hidden Sea Village has grown from nothing to its current size in less than two years.

It's important to know that ninja villages with over a hundred ninjas are extremely rare in the ninja world, aside from the Five Great Ninja Villages.

The Land of the Sea, now with its own ninja village, has seen a reduction in pirate raids and no longer needs to pay annual deposits to the Land of Water, leading to a gradual increase in its national strength.

With improved living standards and the growing reputation of the Hidden Sea Village, more and more residents of the Land of the Sea now want their children to become ninjas in the Hidden Sea Village.

Ghost Island, which was once considered a forbidden area for the Sea Kingdom, has now become their annual pilgrimage site.

Because the number of ninjas in the Hidden Sea Village is now sufficient for their stable development, they only recruit a certain number of children each year for training.

Therefore, every year at this time, the coast of the Land of the Sea becomes bustling with activity, filled with people who aspire to become ninjas of the Hidden Sea Village.

Even if they didn't become ninjas, being able to visit their idol, Lord Yangcheng, in the Hidden Sea Village would be a great honor for them.

The prosperity of the Sea Kingdom today is largely due to the contributions of Lord Yang Cheng and Lord Hai Yao, and they are naturally admired and respected by the people of the Sea Kingdom.

To the five great ninja villages, the Hidden Sea Village and Lord Yangcheng are probably just insignificant figures.

However, for their sea kingdom, their achievements are enough to be recorded in history.

The Land of the Sea, Demon Realm Island, Hidden Sea Village.

Yang Cheng, who is praised and worshipped by the people of the Land of the Sea, is sitting opposite a young girl with long black hair and wearing a kimono.

If anyone from the Land of the Sea were here, they would be surprised to find that the person sitting in front of Yang Cheng is none other than Hai Yao, the daimyo of the Land of the Sea whose fame has been no less than their own in the past two years.

After eliminating the former daimyo of the Land of the Sea, the seizure of power in the Land of the Sea proceeded quite smoothly.

After all, the Sea Kingdom is just a small country. Although the Daimyo Prefecture has guards, they are obviously no match for Yang Cheng and his group.

The former daimyo relied solely on paying protection money and depended on the protection of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas; he had virtually no military power within his own country.

When selecting a new daimyo, Yang Cheng gave priority to the offspring of the original daimyo, as this would avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

The original lord also had a legitimate son, but because his style of doing things was almost exactly the same as his father's, he was also killed by Yang Cheng.

Upon witnessing Yang Cheng swiftly and decisively kill the daimyo's son, in order to protect her and her mother's lives, a girl named Haiyao suddenly knelt before Yang Cheng and volunteered to act as a puppet daimyo to assist Yang Cheng in controlling the Land of the Sea.

That's right, Haiyao and her daughter were the same wife and daughter that Yuan Daming had planned to sell to him in an attempt to survive.

Yang Cheng wasn't really interested in controlling the Land of the Sea, since he established the ninja village not out of ambition, but simply to have a backup plan.

However, since there was no suitable candidate to be the daimyo, Yangcheng eventually agreed to let Haiyao succeed him as daimyo.
