Chapter 227 The Return to the Origin Immortal Kingdom: Rule by Gods and Humans

1500 kilometers east of the Land of Lightning lies a country called the Land of Hot Springs.

1500 kilometers further east lies the land of water.

The shape of the Land of Fire is that of a fish, and there is a country called the Land of Bears at the tail of the fish. In the Land of Bears, there is a ninja village called the Star Ninja Village.

Further south of the Bear Country, 2500 kilometers out to sea, lies a country called the Rainbow Country.

The land of rainbows is no less large than the land of water, but it has a smaller population and no ninjas. Its development is extremely backward, and it is still in the agricultural era, with its people making a living by farming.

As for fishing?

Their shipbuilding technology is inadequate, and they don't have the courage to go out to sea; they can only fish in coastal waters.

Such a country is naturally easy to conquer; a landing force of two hundred men is sufficient.

Finally, only Kirigakure remains.

Kirigakure is not very strong. Among the five great ninja villages, it is comparable to Iwagakure in strength, ranking either third or fourth.

Such strength was naturally a problem before the ninja world was unified, because it would be very difficult for any village to deal with Kirigakure on its own.

If too few people go, we can't win; if too many people go, our supply lines will be attacked.

But after the unification of the ninja world, Kirigakure was no longer a problem.

Because Kirigakure, and even the Land of Water, no matter how large its area, is still an island nation with scarce resources and little arable land, a large amount of supplies need to be imported from the mainland.

Previously, neither the Land of Fire nor the Land of Lightning had a strong government to control them, so blocking the Land of Water would have been a joke.

But now, Ning's organization has arrived.

After the Guining Army entered the Land of Lightning, Konan led her 20,000-strong main force to blockade the docks and ports along the coastline. She could also fly high in the air with binoculars to scout and ensure that no ship could leave the port.

The Ning organization doesn't actually prevent fishermen from making a living; it just requires them to register.

Fishermen can go out to sea, while merchant ships need to register their destination. If they are going to the Land of Water, they need to change course. They can go to the Land of Fire or the Land of Rock.

Even if there are no buyers, it doesn't matter. Ning's organization is currently engaged in large-scale development around the world, and there is a shortage of everything. They certainly won't let merchants lose money.

Merchants would generally cooperate, because illegal merchants had been killed by the Guining Army time and time again, and those who remained, even out of fear, dared not disobey the orders of the Ning organization.

Moreover, Ning organizes fair trade, does not set up arbitrary checkpoints, and does not extort merchants.

Any legitimate merchant who has dealt with the Ning organization twice will immediately realize that dealing with the Ning organization is far more comfortable than dealing with those nobles.

Of course, some business owners will complain that business is getting harder.

These people must have been monopolizing businesses by relying on the power of the nobility. Now that their backers have fallen, their true management skills have been exposed.

Not only did the Land of Lightning begin to blockade the Land of Water, but the Land of Rock, the Land of Wind, the Land of Fire, and even the Land of Rainbows also took action under the organization's orders.

Every country with a sea outlet has imposed an embargo on the Land of Water.

Meanwhile, a newly compiled "Ning Organization Popular Education Manual," which also included the Ning Organization's exploits in taking over the Land of Lightning, the Land of Rock, and the Land of Wind, was sent to Kirigakure.

The meaning is clear: four of the five hidden villages have already fallen. Hidden Mist Village, what will your choice be?

The incident involving Kirigakure is a major event for any ninja village, but for the Ning organization, it is a minor matter.

Sending one unit to deal with it is sufficient.

The Ning organization is currently busy with matters related to the establishment of a nation.

After all, the entire ninja world continent had been unified, but the one that ruled this continent was not a country, but an organization.

It's certainly possible to govern a country with an organization at its core, but whether from the perspective of boosting morale or from the perspective of foreign exchanges, this continent needs the birth of a nation.

This matter had been discussed since the beginning of December when the Ning Organization officially announced it, and by mid-December, all newspapers and magazines under the Ning Organization's jurisdiction had begun to discuss it publicly.

What should our country be called in the future? What kind of flag and emblem should we use? What kind of system should we adopt? Should the leader still be called by his full name? Or should we continue to use the current organizational title for the leader and still call him "leader"?

On December 21, Ning organized a nationwide call for flag designs, requiring designers to include their design concepts.

On January 1, 1947, officials and representatives of the people from all levels of the country who had arrived in the capital went to the capital, and the National Assembly was officially convened.

At the meeting, the delegates first confirmed the calendar.

Currently, the five major nations are each going their own way, and there is no unified calendar. As a result, they are using the so-called Konoha calendar to record years.

How absurd!

After extensive research and deliberation, the Ning organization ultimately adopted the Goddess of Rabbit Chronology, or simply the Rabbit God Chronology.

Since its inception, the Ning organization has upheld the ideal of unifying the ninja world, and the last person to unify the ninja world was the goddess of the burial. The burial year system is a system of year system that takes the year when the goddess of the burial was born as the first year of the burial year.

According to the research of academician-level historian Hei Jue, the Goddess of Rabbit descended to earth 1020 years ago and took 7 years to unify the world. Therefore, this year should be the 1027th year of the Goddess of Rabbit!

On January 1, 1027 (the first day of the founding conference), the first thing to be decided was the establishment of the capital city by Ning.

Ning organized five alternative capital cities.

Kyoto, the former capital of the Land of Fire.

The birthplace of the Ning organization, Mingchuan Town, now Mingchuan City.

The capital of the land of rain, the Rain Capital.

The capital of the Grass Country, Grass Capital.

The capital of the Iron Country, the town of the general.

Kyoto was the first to be eliminated.

Kyoto is actually a good choice, and after three years of development, it has been built quite well.

However, the city's geographical location is too far south, which is not conducive to the development of the north.

As for Mingchuan Town, it's even further south.

The third city to be eliminated was Rain City, which is located in the center of the map and is convenient to go anywhere.

The problem is that it rains all year round here, and it is currently classified as a heavy industrial city.

It is suitable as an industrial center, but not as a political center.

After some discussion, Jiangjunyi was also ruled out.

General's Town is also a good place. To the north is the Land of Thunder, and to the south is the Land of Fire. It is very close to the sea and its geographical location is very similar to the capital city of Beiping in the previous life.

However, General Yi has a fatal flaw: it has many mines!

There are many iron ore mines and many coal mines here.

The iron mines in Jiangjunyi are so plentiful that even a simple mountain dweller could dig up ten kilograms a day by carrying a bamboo basket up the mountain.

This is also the economic foundation for the large number of samurai in the Land of Iron. Because there are iron and coal mines nearby, the iron sword forging industry in the Land of Iron is thriving, and the cost of iron swords is also low.

Swords were inexpensive to produce, so many people could afford them, and the Land of Iron naturally became the land of warriors.

Having plenty of iron ore is a good thing for an ordinary city, but not for a capital city, since the steel industry is notoriously polluting and water-intensive.

If you use the water, what do the golf courses in Beijing use?

Moreover, there are coal mines nearby. We can't do without coal, but we can't let Grandpa Jing breathe coal gas every day!

After eliminating four, the last one left was actually the Land of Grass!

The group of experts and professors immediately began to study the situation in the Grass Country.

First of all, the Land of Grass is located between the Land of Rock, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Fire, making transportation extremely convenient.

Secondly, the Land of Grass is adjacent to the Land of Rain and the Land of Waterfalls, so it has no shortage of water.

Third, as long as a railway is built in the Land of Waterfalls, the Land of Grass will essentially have a sea outlet.

Fourthly, the Land of Grass is actually a country with favorable weather, otherwise how could it be so lush with water and grass?

This place actually has the potential to become the Land of Rice Fields, but because it is sandwiched between several major powers, coupled with the local daimyo's incompetence in governing the country, and the presence of the Hidden Grass Village attracting hatred, the Land of Rice Fields has failed to develop and instead has become rife with bandits and roaming ninja.

It would be a miracle if farming were possible in such an environment.

If no one cultivates the wasteland, then all that's left is grass.

Under the designer's planning, a sketch was gradually developed.

All the hills and mountains in the Grass Country that were unsuitable for farming were leveled to build a city, and the adjacent plains could be used for farming and growing vegetables, which could meet the needs of the people of Kyoto to some extent.

The industrial wastewater from the Land of Rain flows away through the Land of Rivers and does not pass through the Land of Grass. The Land of Grass can build an artificial waterway connecting to the Land of Waterfalls and draw water from the Land of Waterfalls, thus solving the water source problem.

Building materials are readily available, as the lands of earth and wind are right next door, where sand and stones are plentiful.

From a governance perspective, the influence of the Grass Country can easily extend to the Wind Country and the Earth Country.

From this perspective, the Land of Grass really is a suitable candidate to become the capital of the new nation.

After some discussion, the matter was settled.

Of course, the name "Land of Grass" is definitely not allowed.

Given that the Land of Grass is located in the center of the continent, at Ningyuan's suggestion, the entire country was ultimately named: Zhongjing City, which will exist as the first municipality directly under the new country.

The calendar for the year of Mao was established, and the capital city was also established.

The next topic of discussion is the national system.

The feudal imperial system had been in place for over a thousand years on this continent, and the people of the ninja world had never seen any other system. Therefore, they habitually wanted the new country to continue the imperial system and for Ning Yuan to become the daimyo of this new country.

Then Ning Yuan decisively declined, as he wanted to cultivate and achieve immortality.

When an emperor is exhausted like a dog every day, where would he find the time to cultivate himself?

But simply copying the modern system won't work either; China doesn't have any practitioners who can achieve immortality.

After much thought, Ning Yuan came up with a system that was similar to the modern system and also suited the situation in the ninja world.

This is based on the system of Liyue in Genshin Impact: co-governance by gods and humans!

In Liyue, the Geo Archon reigns supreme, controlling order. Below the Geo Archon are the Liyue Immortals, some detached from the mortal world, others deeply involved.

Below the Rock God and the immortals are the administrative departments for ordinary people.

This system can be copied into the ninja world, with Ning Yuan as the deity. If a cultivator achieves success in cultivating immortality, he can be granted the title of immortal. Those who wish to participate in politics can do so, while those who do not wish to participate can find a place to cultivate immortality.

Ningyuan will designate several areas on the mainland that cannot be developed, and give them to the immortals for cultivation.

Of course, Ning Yuan is not a god yet, so he adopted the system but not the name.

After much deliberation, Ning Yuan adopted the name "Six Paths Immortal" and called himself an Immortal, while those below the Immortal level adopted the names of the leaders of the five hidden villages and called themselves Shadows.

This approach was immediately approved upon its proposal.

Firstly, Ning Yuan's prestige is too high. Let alone saying he wants to become an immortal, even if he said he wants to be everyone's father, probably no one would object.

Secondly, there is already a precedent of the Sage of Six Paths. Since people a thousand years ago could call the person who unified the ninja world a god or immortal, people a thousand years later can naturally do the same.

Besides, ninjas who have mastered Sage Mode in the ninja world can indeed call themselves Sages, and Ning Yuan could be called a Sage in this world.

After some research, Ningyuan's immortal title was also determined.

The Sage of Six Paths is called the Sage of Six Paths because he possesses the Rinnegan.

Ningyuan has a pair of white eyes, but it is neither the first nor an isolated case, so it cannot be called a white eye.

As for the Paper Escape Technique, Ning Yuan is indeed number one, but others don't know that.

Ningyuan possesses many abilities that are both first-of-its-kind and unique, but these abilities have not been revealed and are unknown to others.

After much deliberation, since Ning Yuan's achievement was unifying the world, everyone decided to name him after his achievements, calling him: Guiyuan Immortal Lord.

Since Ningyuan determined the title based on merit, the original plan to determine the title based on strength was no longer applicable. In the end, it was decided that the title would also be determined based on merit.

Below the Immortal Lord Guiyuan, those who have been granted the title of Shadow include

Tsunade, the physician.

Orochimaru, Feng Keying.

Yakushi Nono, Feng Renying.

Minato Namikaze, sealing off light and shadow.

The flag trees are lush and verdant, their shadows like the seal of law.

Although Kurenai Yuhi and the Amegakure trio are very strong, they haven't accomplished enough to qualify as Kage. They can only try harder in the future.

With the form of government established, the name of the country was naturally determined: Guining Immortal Dynasty.

Guining Immortal Dynasty is a nation centered around the Ning Organization, where cultivators and ordinary people are equally valued. The country is a place where immortals and mortals coexist, and gods and humans govern together.

The Great Lord of Guining Immortal Dynasty is the Immortal Lord of Guiyuan.

The Guining Immortal Dynasty has the following subordinate units:

The seven star committees—Science and Technology, Medical and Health, Discipline Inspection, Organization, Military, Politics, and Culture—are led by leaders who can be referred to as the Seven Stars.

The seven major star committees are:

Science and Technology Star Committee: Orochimaru; Medical Star Committee: Tsunade; Discipline Inspection Star Committee: Sakumo Hatake; Organization Star Committee: Nono Uta; Military Star Committee: Minato Namikaze; Political Affairs Star Committee: Yahiko; Culture Star Committee: Kurenai Yuhi.

Under the Seven Great Star Committees, there are further divisions:

The curriculum comprises fourteen disciplines, including science and technology, industry, transportation, food and medicine, environment, medical and health care, discipline inspection, organization, military affairs, Taoism and diplomacy, commerce, taxation, culture, and education.

Both the Star Committee and the Gate Committee are national-level units, with their offices located in Zhongjing. Their organizational levels are: Film-level and Gate-level.

Below the gate is the state-level administrative division, with the offices of each state, and the organizational level is: division level.

Below the outline are the municipal levels, with the offices of each municipality, and the organizational level is: Level 1.

Below this level, it is under the jurisdiction of the county, with the offices located in each county; the organizational level is: subordinate level.

Below this level are the townships, with their offices located in the respective counties. The organizational level is: township level.

Below the seed level, the administrative units are the villages, and the organizational level is: village-level.

After the departments, the next issue to be discussed is the administrative division.

The names of the five former major countries have been completely abolished and replaced with city and county-level cities based on geographical features.

The Land of Wind is a desert, so there's no need for detailed division; it should be renamed the Wind and Sand State.

The Land of Earth is also a poor land, and the more it is divided, the poorer it becomes. Therefore, it is divided into North Rock State and South Rock State, with only a mountain range in the middle as the boundary.

The Land of Lightning wasn't wealthy either, but it was still richer than the Land of Rock. After pondering for two or three hours, the group finally drew two lines across the Land of Lightning, dividing it into three regions, which they named Northern Cloud State, Central Cloud State, and Southern Cloud State.

The Bird Kingdom and the Bear Kingdom merged, and because the area was covered with mountains and forests and had a long and narrow terrain, it was renamed Shanlin Prefecture.

By the way, this Bear Country isn't the Bear Country at the tail of the Fire Country. It's the Bear Country between the Earth Country and the Wind Country. The two countries share the same name.

Because of its small size and its status as a core city of heavy industry, the Rain Country was eventually designated as a municipality and renamed Rain Dawn City.

The land of Chuan remains unchanged in size, but its name is changed to Nanchuan Prefecture.

The lands of Taki and Frost were merged and renamed Kitagawa Province.

The disputed area between the Iron Country, the Field Country, the Fire Country, and the Thunder Country was merged and, because it resembled a beam supporting two seas, it was named Lianghai Prefecture.

The Kingdom of Tang was renamed Yangquan Prefecture.

The former Whirlpool Country, now the Wave Country, has been renamed Seawave State, but it is still a city-level administrative unit.

The Rainbow Kingdom was renamed the South Sea Prefecture.

Then comes the Land of Fire.

The Land of Fire is vast and prosperous, so it's only natural that it needs to be thoroughly demolished.

After a long period of research, the group finally decided to divide the Land of Fire into five parts.

With Konoha Village as its capital, the northwestern part of the Land of Fire was designated as: Konoha Prefecture.

With Kyoto as the prefecture capital, the northeastern part of the Land of Fire was designated as Beining Prefecture.

With Mingchuan Town as the prefecture capital, the central part of the Land of Fire was designated as Qiansen Prefecture.

With Xinkang City as its capital, the southern part of the Land of Fire was designated as Nanning Prefecture.

The tail region of the Land of Fire, formerly the Land of Bears and part of the Land of Fire, was grouped together and designated as Guangyue Prefecture.

At this point, the country's name, capital, system of government, organizational structure, and regional divisions have been basically established.

Only the national flag and national anthem remain to be decided, and both are undergoing a tense but orderly selection process.

Once everything is settled, the founding ceremony can be held!
