Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

Moreover, even Madara Uchiha is still alive; who knows if there are even more powerful ninjas hidden in the ninja world?

We are in the open, while others are in the shadows; caution is essential.

Kushina looked at the mini-Nine-Tails with a puzzled expression: "Kurama, I feel like you're becoming more and more like Shiraha."

"Hmph!" Mini Nine-Tailed Fox snorted lightly: "With that brat not here, of course I have to keep an eye on you so you can't slack off."

"Damn it!" Kushina grabbed the mini-Nine-Tails Fate by the scruff of its neck, pulled it into her arms, and roughly handled it, saying viciously, "Whose side are you on, you traitor!"

Nine-Tails: (??_??)

Kushina: "What kind of expression is that?!"

squeak~

The office door was pushed open, and Bai Yu walked in.

Upon seeing the scene inside, Bai Yu was taken aback, then smiled and said, "It seems you all got along very well while I was away."

"Bai Yu!" Kushina tossed the mini Nine-Tails onto the table, ran quickly to Bai Yu, hugged his neck like a koala, and clung to him.

"Processing documents is so tiring!" Kushina said coquettishly.

At this moment, Kurama gestured towards the documents on the table with its lip.

Shiraha carried Kushina towards the desk.

The opened file had more than a dozen vertical lines, each very short, and the trajectory appeared to be drawn from bottom to top.

Bai Yu chuckled inwardly, but feigned a serious expression on his face, saying, "Nine Lamas is really going too far! He doesn't even know how to help you with the documents!"

Mini Nine-Tailed Fox: "?"

Kushina: "Exactly! It just said that all our future children will be idiots!"

Mini Nine-Tailed Fox: "???"

Bai Yu: "Not only do you not help, but you also make sarcastic remarks! That's too much!"

"I can't stand you guys anymore!" The mini-Nine-Tails rolled its eyes at Bai Yu's coaxing tone and Kushina's coquettish manner, and returned to the sealed space.

Bai Yu sat down in her seat.

Kushina then noticed the "annotations" she had left on the document, and blushed. She closed the document, went behind Shiraha, and gently massaged his shoulders: "How did things go this time?"

Bai Yu leaned back in his chair, enjoying Kushina's massage, and briefly recounted the events involving the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and Might Guy.

"The Eight Gates Formation has such power?!" Kushina exclaimed in surprise.

"It truly exceeded my expectations. According to Senior Dai, he only recently mastered the eighth gate, the Gate of Death, but he has never used it. Given the chakra boost he received when opening the seventh gate, his explosive power upon opening the eighth gate might surpass yours. It has to be said, this is genius-level creativity to create such a ninjutsu!"

Bai Yu sighed.

"Is the Eight Gates Formation suitable for me to learn?" Kushina asked. She knew that she was inferior to Shiraha in everything except strength, so she could only amplify her original strengths.

Now that Bai Yu's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, the huge gap between them has been narrowed considerably, which makes Kushina feel a little anxious.

So when she learned that the Eight Gates could amplify one's strength to such a terrifying degree, even surpassing the explosive power of the "Red Dragon Armor," she was somewhat tempted and wanted to further increase her explosive power by learning the Eight Gates.

"Learning the Eight Gates Formation requires extreme physical training to break through the limitations of the 'gates' within the body. Theoretically, the better one's physique, the greater the boost one will receive after breaking through. However, similarly, it is difficult for such a person to break through the limits."

Senior Dai has already taught me the complete Eight Gates Formation. Perhaps I can use the Eight Gates Formation to deduce the "Crimson Dragon Calamity" to a higher level.

Bai Yu shook his head.

"The ultimate winner of this Shinobi World War should still be Konoha. However, the scale of this Shinobi World War far exceeds the previous two. The five great ninja villages have consumed a lot of manpower and resources in this war. It will take them at least seven to ten years to recover."

Now you just need to gradually master Kurama's power step by step. The ninja world should soon enter a relatively stable period of development, and you shouldn't have any more opportunities to participate in battles.

Furthermore, I will not allow other villages to recover so easily and launch another Fourth Shinobi World War.

"I'll leave internal unity to you; as for external relations, I'll handle that!"

"Okay, I understand. I'll listen to you." Kushina nodded heavily. With Shiraha's explanation, she felt at ease.

"The priority right now is to eliminate external threats. The Hidden Clouds have established diplomatic relations with us, and they have apologized for kidnapping you and made financial compensation."

Although it's impossible to forgive them so easily, for the sake of stabilizing the situation for now, let's keep this debt in mind.

The village with the greatest hatred for the Uzumaki clan is Kirigakure. This time I killed two of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, so it's inevitable that we'll have to be enemies with Kirigakure in the future.

However, they are currently at war with Konoha, and they dare not provoke us until a victor emerges.

I'll ignore it for now and deal with Kirigakure when I have time.

With the external situation relatively stable, our most important task now is to address economic issues.

Rebuilding the Land of Whirlpools will require an astronomical sum of money.

Bai Yu said.

"I've tried my best to divert funds from the Uzumaki clan's businesses, but it still isn't enough to fill the funding gap." Kushina said helplessly, never imagining that she would ever be short of money.

"For now, let's not withdraw any more funds from the industry. This money is a steady, continuous stream. If you withdraw too much, it will hinder the industry's development." Bai Yu waved his hand and said, "What we need to do now is to increase revenue, find ways to develop more industries, and then make more money."

“The Land of Whirlpools is in dire need of reconstruction, and many of its former inhabitants have not yet returned. Moreover, those who have returned are mostly ordinary people without ninja qualifications, so it will be very difficult to develop industries.” Kushina frowned slightly.

"No!" Bai Yu said firmly, "Many industries need ordinary people, who make the largest number of people! We rely on the vast majority of the people to make money."

The five great ninja villages have the most ninjas in the world, but the total number of active ninjas would never exceed 10.

Even including those who changed careers or retired, the total number of ninjas in the entire ninja world is less than 20.

But how many ordinary people are there? Konoha Village alone has hundreds of thousands of villagers.

Ninjas receive the highest salaries in the entire ninja world, making it a high-paying profession.

But when it comes to truly making money, it's not just about ability, but also about the people!

"Then we should develop commerce?" Kushina asked. The best way out for ordinary people is to go into politics or go into business. Right now, the only path to take in the Land of Whirlpools is to go into business.

“That’s right!” Bai Yu nodded and said, “On the one hand, we need to provide a good education for ordinary people who do not have ninja talent and give them a path to advancement.”

Talent is needed in many fields, including scientific research, healthcare, education, services, and manufacturing.

All we need to do is provide a basic framework and a stable internal and external environment.

If the people below receive a good education, they will certainly be able to exert 200% of their enthusiasm.

It's important to understand that people in many countries are still struggling to make ends meet and could be plunged into war or conflict at any time.

Some members of the Whirlpool Clan had been wandering for many years. Although the Whirlpool Clan has now been re-established, it is not very attractive to some Whirlpool Clan members who have a relatively stable life.

No one knows whether the Kingdom of Whirlpools will be besieged again.

On the other hand, you have proven with facts that the Uzumaki clan are excellent candidates to serve as Jinchūriki.

Therefore, if some members of the Uzumaki clan with ninja talent are found by other major ninja villages, they may not be willing to release them.

Our current situation is that we can defend ourselves, but if we want to launch an offensive against other villages, we also need to consider the safety of our people.

"I will work hard," Kushina declared resolutely. "I promise I will never slack off again!"

"While the Ninja World War is raging, we should focus on developing the economy and technology. Ninja education is not the most urgent task. We just need to establish a ninja school to educate those with ninja talent."

We don't need the brainwashing-style education of Konoha's "Will of Fire." We want to make our nation strong and our people prosperous. When everyone is proud to be a citizen of the Land of Whirlpools, there will naturally be an incredibly strong sense of unity.

Bai Yu explained.

"In the Land of Snow, we will continue to develop heavy industry related to chakra armor, as well as various new weapons, so that ordinary people may also be able to possess power comparable to that of ninjas in the future."

In addition, there is the Land of Demons, where Miroku is on good terms with the daimyo of the Land of Birds, the Land of Bears, and the Land of Frost.

These small countries are adjacent to each other. If they can unite and we provide them with strong military support, they can develop rapidly.

The technology industry should be developed in the Land of Whirlpools. Currently, there are two industries that can generate a lot of money: one is the production of medical scrolls, and the other is the research and development of medicines.

Miroku possesses the power of a priestess and has some research in medicine. At the same time, the Land of Demons itself has a pharmaceutical industry, so both of these industries can be located in the Land of Demons, with the Land of Demons as the core, radiating to surrounding countries.

The Sand Village suffered heavy losses in this Shinobi World War, and its strength was greatly diminished.

Therefore, we only need to be careful of Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village) in the northern part of the Land of Demons.

Kushina nodded: "But medical scrolls are now a strategic resource for Konoha, and many of the medicines you've researched are extremely effective. Won't this attract the covetous eyes of other countries?"

Perhaps, like the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, they will be feared by various nations, ultimately leading to an attack.

"The fact that you thought of this shows that you've grown up," Bai Yu said with a smile. "I've already considered these things. I invented the medical scrolls, so I naturally have the right to sell them, and Konoha has no right to criticize me. Most importantly, Konoha suffered the greatest losses in this great war, so they will only try to build a good relationship with us, not make enemies over the medical scroll business."

That will definitely be the case, at least until they recover.

Therefore, we can sell medical scrolls to various countries, as military strategic resources have always been the most profitable.

As for the potions, the ones I'm giving you are all extremely precious.

If I were to sell "Vitality Potion" or "Deep Blue Potion," I would only sell the diluted version.

Finally, there's the business of ninjutsu scrolls...

"Ninjutsu scrolls?" Kushina was taken aback. "Did you even invent ninjutsu scrolls?"

Konoha had researched the idea of ​​ninjutsu scrolls a few years ago, but after wasting a lot of manpower and resources, it ultimately ended in failure.

However, Kushina always had great confidence in Shiroha, so she thought of him immediately.

"Not yet, but someone gave me an idea. If we continue researching, we'll be able to develop ninjutsu scrolls sooner or later. However, this thing would have too much of an impact on the ninja profession, so we probably can't mass-produce it in the short term. You continue to stay in charge of the clan, and I'll handle things outside."

Bai Yu replied that his inspiration naturally came from Scorpion's puppetry.

Scorpion transformed himself into a human puppet, in which he could use fire scrolls to spew flames with powerful melting force and temperature from the pipes in his palms.

However, this kind of fire scroll still requires the ninja to use their own chakra to control it, so strictly speaking, it cannot be considered a true ninjutsu scroll.

For example, the flames sealed in the fire scroll are comparable to the fire release techniques of Jonin and Kage-level ninjas, but the chakra of ordinary Genin and Chunin cannot unleash the true power of the fire scroll.

Furthermore, this fire scroll is designed for use with puppetry techniques and is not suitable for ordinary ninjas to control.

"Then will you not come back for a long time?" Kushina pouted.

Bai Yu shook his head: "Of course not. Except for necessary matters that require my intervention, there are many things I don't need to do myself. Besides, I need to cultivate with you! How could I stay outside all day long?"

If Bai Yu focuses on researching ninjutsu scrolls, he will eventually be able to do so. However, that would be putting the cart before the horse. Right now, the most important thing is to strengthen himself, and everything else is secondary.

However, the normal cultivation speed is a bit slow. After becoming a first-level warlock, the second level of advanced warlock meditation has a much better effect than the first level. Within about a year of Bai Yu's advancement, his mental strength had already reached 40 points.

However, his mental strength could not continue to grow because he needed to compress his mental strength, improve its overall quality, and transform it from an intangible state to a vaporized state.

This process is not long compared to the normal training of a sorcerer; in fact, it can be said to be extremely short, taking about a year.
