Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 321 Konoha's 49th Year and Rolling Up!

The news of the plane that Youya built crashing quickly spread to other villages.

This made the villagers of Kumogakure very happy.

They felt this meant that Konoha Village had not successfully sent people into the sky.

This is very important for their self-confidence.

Since Konoha Village failed, doesn't that mean only Kumogakure Village succeeded?!

How could this not be exciting?

You Ya ignored these similar comments.

Yes, similar voices were heard in Konoha Village.

But Youya didn't care.

For him, if the aircraft for Konoha Village could be successfully developed, then the future would be bright.

Airplanes are undoubtedly the kings of aerial combat.

Moreover, the aircraft is capable of carrying chakra cannons.

Of course, some people might say that people in other villages can do the same thing.

For example, having Deidara carry a chakra cannon to attack.

Strictly speaking, this is indeed feasible.

To be even more precise, this is the correct way for ninjas to operate in wars within the ninja world.

Armed with a chakra cannon and his own clay bombs, Deidara is essentially a humanoid, mobile, and flying automatic turret.

Even so, don't forget that Deidara is special.

How many ninjas are there in the entire ninja world? How many people are there in the entire ninja world?

How many people in the entire ninja world possess the ability to create clay bombs like Deidara?

But airplanes...

Once the engine technology is mastered, mass production is possible.

……

In the 49th year of Konoha, many villagers in Konoha Village were not very enthusiastic about the New Year.

Because of the plane crash, they felt they had lost to the people of Kumogakure.

You Ya smiled. To encourage the villagers, You Ya released a movie.

It's a movie that he had someone film several years ago, but it's been shelved and never made.

Its name is "Soaring Ambition," but it was modified by You Ya.

In short, it tells the story of two Konoha ninjas who gradually grow into the village's ace pilots.

The text focuses on explaining the scenes of aerial combat.

In the movie, the two pilots, one the lead pilot and the other the wingman, followed the flight formation and first dropped bombs from thousands of meters in the air, and then directly used the chakra cannon they were carrying to bombard the enemy.

The villagers of Konoha were thoroughly entertained, and they also gained an understanding of the capabilities of Yua's plane.

But the shadows from the other villages turned green with rage.

Okay! Okay!

You damned Third Hokage!

Damn it, God Jinyouya!

So you built those planes to fight this kind of war?!

If you guys actually manage to manufacture this, then what's the point of even trying?

Let's just throw it!

The scenes in the movie have been artistically rendered and are not actually that gory.

But if war really goes like this, then what else is there to say?

It's important to know that both sides in the movie need to have this kind of thing to be evenly matched.

But they don't even know how to build an airplane!

Oh, strictly speaking, Konoha Village hasn't even cracked the engine technology yet...

No! Doesn't this mean they're about to succeed?!

What else is there to say? We can only keep up.

Ōnoki from Iwagakure spent the entire day in his office berating Yua.

Youya didn't care about this.

He's just being scolded. The Third Raikage is the same; he's always scolding himself.

If these people stopped targeting Konoha after being insulted a few times, Yuya would be more than happy to be insulted.

Unfortunately, that's impossible.

Other villages were swept up in an arms race after watching one of Yuya's movies.

It sounds a bit outrageous, and it really is.

But that's just how it is.

Why didn't Youya wait until the plane was successfully manufactured before releasing the movie?

Naturally, it's because Youya is now playing the strategic deterrence game.

In short, Yua went to Kumogakure this time because she was invited.

However, Yuya has already been able to discover the development potential of Kumogakure.

Simply put, although the currency of Kumogakure was not strong, Kumogakure did not care about its own currency, and the Third Raikage was not aware of this, so he pretended that it didn't exist. In this strange tacit agreement, the currency of Kumogakure depreciated to a ratio of three to one with that of Konoha.

Simply put, 300 taels of Cloud Village paper money can only be exchanged for 100 taels of Leaf Village paper money.

It's definitely not something the Third Raikage did intentionally; he doesn't have the brains for it. It's also impossible for someone else to help him, because his brains are limited, and he can't accept this fact.

But in reality, this is a good thing for Kumogakure.

If it weren't for the discovery during this trip to Kumogakure that the village's currency had been devalued compared to Konoha's, Yuya wouldn't have noticed the large number of Kumogakure goods now available in Konoha.

Although most of them don't involve much technical skill, why does this route look so familiar?

However, the rabbit in the previous life wanted to do research and development and was desperate to develop technology. But the Hidden Cloud Village in this world simply didn't have the strength, and because of the currency devaluation caused by the Raikage's messy actions, they didn't have the idea of developing technology at all.

You could say that fools sometimes have good luck.

However, you won't know until you check, and what you find will shock you.

Yuya checked and discovered that of Konoha's annual GDP of over 500 billion ryo, more than 100 billion ryo was generated through transactions with Kumogakure.

That won't do, damn it.

What does it mean that I spend money while you save money?!

Roll it up for me!

No stopping!

Therefore, Yu Ya chose this time to release the movie.

Of course, boosting the morale of the people in Konoha Village is also very important.

However, in the eyes of the other villagers, Yuya announced this movie to boost morale.

As for the real purpose of Youya, which was to get them all involved and spend money, they couldn't even imagine it.

No normal person would think of that.

If I really had to say...

Few of these people actually have any political acumen.
