Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 320 Accident? No, story!

When Yuya announced that Konoha Village would also send people to heaven, the entire village instantly became excited.

Many people are spreading the word, emphasizing that Konoha Village is not as cowardly as Kumogakure.

Since the Hidden Cloud Village has sent someone to heaven, our Hidden Leaf Village naturally cannot back down. We must show the Hidden Cloud Village what it means to be the number one village in the ninja world.

When the news reached the Third Raikage, he was somewhat bewildered.

No, don't you understand why we send people to heaven?!

We just want to find out if the world is really a sphere!

What's wrong with Konoha? Why would you compare this to Kumogakure?

but……

Considering Konoha's current strength, Yua doing some seemingly insignificant things is tantamount to dragging Konoha down.

The Third Raikage was pleased with this outcome.

Since your Konoha Village is so powerful, you'd better invest a lot in this area.

It would be best if we could bring down Konoha.

The Third Raikage secretly thought this to himself.

When this news reached other ninja villages, the other Kage immediately reacted!

The Third Hokage...

Did they make a foolish move?!

Youya has always performed exceptionally well. Even if you don't see the meaning at the time, you can later discover that it has a deeper meaning.

As is customary, this guy is probably up to something secretly again, and they'll find out later.

But the shadows of these villages pondered and pondered...

What's planned for this trip to Asia?!

After making some inquiries, it was discovered that many people in Konoha Village were very happy, as Yua's reputation in Konoha Village had reached its peak.

But what's the point?

Yuya's reputation, prestige, and status were already number one in Konoha, having transformed the village from poverty to wealth!

Given this situation, does Youa need to resort to such methods to enhance his reputation?!

That's unnecessary...

However, just like the Third Raikage, the other Kage were happy to see Yua's "foolish move" happen.

Yuya's Konoha Village is developing too fast.

To other villages, Konoha now looks like a city of the future!

Simply put, Yua moved things forward by more than thirty years, bringing forward the changes that Naruto had made after taking power to the present day.

However, Youya was not satisfied with this.

Putting everything else aside, 4G isn't fully implemented yet, so there's no way to bind all devices to one phone.

For Youya, that was the future he wanted.

It should at least come to that point.

Now...

Let's take it one step at a time.

……

When asked about the opinions of other villages, You Ya smiled but remained silent.

If his thoughts were so easy to guess, then he would have wasted his time as Hokage.

not to mention……

These guys are all no good either.

They just lacked a template from another world; what they could copy was Konoha from this world.

The development of this world is simply copying a country that is more developed than yourself, whether in terms of reality, spirit, or even the entire civilization.

Of course, achieving that level of civilization is basically impossible.

Ultimately, some local modifications are needed.

However, discussing these things seems a bit too far ahead.

Youya focuses more on practical matters.

At the end of Konoha 48, Nara Shika was responsible for compiling the year-end data, reviewing, and managing the various year-end regulations.

As for Youya...

He went to the research institute in Konoha and stayed there for more than a month.

Tsunade would visit Yua every day.

However, Tsunade was puzzled by the fact that Yua and the researchers had created a huge underground space, but she was more concerned about Yua's body.

She certainly didn't want Youya's health to be ruined.

Of course, unless absolutely necessary, You Ya would never stay up all night every day.

He's forty years old now, and he's starting to feel the strain.

But in the end, hard work pays off.

At the end of Konoha 48, on an ordinary year-end day in Konoha Village, Yuya happily announced on the nightly news that the first-generation wind tunnel had been completed and the next step was to build the power engine. Once the power engine was successfully manufactured, people could be sent into space.

This news was immediately sent back to Japan by representatives from other villages in Konoha.

People from other villages were even more puzzled when they found out.

Even the Third Raikage wouldn't just slam his fist on the table and declare that Yuya is too weak because he hasn't sent anyone to heaven yet.

If Konoha really wanted to send people into the sky in hot air balloons, they definitely could do it.

However, Youya has spent more than half a year working on this wind tunnel and this engine...

Even an idiot would understand that Yua must have some kind of conspiracy, right?!

The Third Raikage was conflicted. He wanted to send someone to steal things from Konoha, but that was a complicated matter.

If it succeeds, that would be the best, but the problem is...

Is it that easy to succeed?

Yuya himself spent more than half a year working on this wind tunnel and engine.

Youya must value this very much!

Naturally, it's obvious that the guard force couldn't be weak.

Yuya would never allow a large number of Kumogakure ninjas to enter Konoha, just as Kumogakure would never allow a large number of Konoha ninjas to enter.

This is also why most trade between the various ninja villages is conducted by ordinary merchants with very little participation from ninjas.

If you were a ninja, you wouldn't be able to enter their core business district, let alone sell goods.

So what can those few dozen Hidden Cloud Villages in Konoha do?

Let's not even talk about the extremely unlikely possibility that they actually succeeded in stealing it.

Can you bring it back?

not to mention……

This wind tunnel... engine...

Is it really that important?

The Third Raikage remained skeptical.

In the end, he did not take action.

The other villages probably didn't take action for the same reason.

The last day of December in Konoha Year 48.

This day was supposed to be celebrated as Konoha Village's New Year.

Youya decided to test fly on this day.

And it was on this very day.

The first aircraft made its official debut.

When people from other villages saw the plane on live television, their expressions were filled with astonishment.

Youya spent so much money and time, and this is the thing they came up with?

To be fair, if we're just talking about flying, many ninjas actually have the ability to fly.

For example, Sai's Super Beast Imitation Drawing.

For example, Deidara from Iwagakure.

Oh, by the way, the kid has already been born, but he's not even a year old yet. Back in Iwagakure, Onoki was overjoyed for a while because of the birth of his grandson.

Therefore, if this thing can only carry people into the sky, it seems...

It's not that important?

But that's not the point.

The key point is that there was an accident during the live broadcast that day.

The engine was never fully developed. While the plane was still climbing at an altitude of over 100 meters, the tail suddenly shut off and billowed thick smoke.

The plane then crashed straight down.

However, because the ninjas inside had the substitution technique, there was no accident in which the pilot died.

You Ya didn't feel sorry for him.

It's just a plane crash. What country hasn't had one in its past life?!

The fact that it can take flight and successfully ascend is important enough.

History will remember this day.

Remember this day, the first airplane was officially born.

Even though it eventually crashed, it still marked the official birth of the king of aerial combat.

This is a story that belongs to the sky.
