Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

The expressions on Hiruzen Sarutobi and his wife's faces suddenly changed.

Hiruko only mentioned it casually, and he didn't want to say much about Sarutobi Asuma leaving the village to join the Twelve Guardians.

After all, Asma is their child, and it is their responsibility to educate him.

"You're going to attack the daimyo?" Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression immediately turned grim.

"No, no, no, not for now. The Land of Fire isn't very stable without a daimyo!" Hiruko said with a smile.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, the old man who dedicated his life to Konoha, made many mistakes during his tenure, but it is undeniable that he truly protected Konoha for many years.

After that, he became more cautious, even somewhat weak, and more adept at compromise.

Judging from what Minato Namikaze and Hiruko did that year.

Minato Namikaze and Hiruko clearly wanted to change the entire Hidden Leaf Village and even the entire ninja world; their words were not just empty talk.

"Since you already know that a single ninja village cannot govern an entire country, why did you attack the Daimyo of the Land of Fire?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that these words would have no effect on Hiruko, so he could only hope that his words would slow down Hiruko's actions.

Hiruko's lips curled into a strange smile, as if he had already seen through Hiruzen Sarutobi's thoughts.

"The ninja world needs change, and I'm not in a hurry. It's just that it's not good for a daimyo with no ability to govern the ninjas!"

"You!" Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to say something, but didn't know how to refute it.

It's still a long way from my ideal world.

No matter how experienced Hiruzen Sarutobi is, the basic transportation network has been largely built up, and connections between different regions are becoming increasingly close.

As long as it continues.

Although the physical distance has not decreased, the time cost for people to reach various places has decreased.

"Then next, I will launch all kinds of convenient transportation tools, and even space transfer devices."

Hiruko plotted in his heart that he would start an unprecedented revolution in the ninja world and make the whole world operate according to his will.

Moreover, electronic information networks are being deployed in an orderly manner, and distance will no longer be a problem for people in the future.

In the past, how many days would it take for a single word from the daimyo of the Land of Fire to be disseminated?

Three days, five days, a week, or even a month?

And can a daimyo really manage the entire country well?

No, they can't.

The daimyo's authority could only extend to a few cities near the capital.

The villagers in various places were mostly managed by the local clans, and they didn't even know what the clansmen looked like.

However, the ninjas of Konoha completed all the transportation routes within a year.

Everyone knows that the ninjas of Konoha Village are good people who help them.

The poor understand that Konoha is the righteous one and will help them have enough to eat.

Hiruko explained to the bewildered Third Hokage, "In this way, the poor people of the ninja world will naturally be loyal to us, and then controlling the Land of Fire will not be a big problem."

"So you and Minato started planning this a year ago."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered, finding it hard to believe that the gentle, sunny, and warm-hearted Minato could have such deep thoughts.

The changes in transportation only occurred after Minato proactively approached Hiruko, so it must have been driven by Minato himself.

Furthermore, since a country can only have one Hokage, that Hokage is naturally the current Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

Hiruko nodded slightly: "Minato, he will be the sole leader of this country."

In fact, Minato didn't think that much about it at the time; he simply felt that it would benefit Konoha.

Everything was Hiruzen's scheme, but Hiruzen Sarutobi had some misunderstandings.

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a wave of fear at that moment. Had Minato Namikaze been faking it all these years when facing him?

A sense of powerlessness arose spontaneously. What would become of Konoha in the future?

He was worried that Konoha was not yet ready to take over the entire country.

Who can become the true helmsman of the Land of Fire and lead Konoha to new glory?

The truth will come out in the next few years.

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a mix of emotions at Hiruzen's words, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

They thought that after winning this war, they would need to rest for a few years, which would take about four or five years.

Fortunately, there's still time. If we call Jiraiya back, maybe we can change Minato's mind.

Hiruko had no idea what the Third Generation Elder was thinking.

But it seems to be nothing more than the same old thing, nothing more than trying to maintain the existing order of Konoha.

They didn't want the changes he and Minato Namikaze were pushing to be too radical and break the traditional balance that Konoha had maintained for many years.

Meanwhile, Granny Chiyo had already returned to Sunagakure.

She summoned Feng Ying overnight.

The Fourth Kazekage looked quite different from before; he had short, unremarkable brown hair.

She also has a preference for dark colors, and she often wears black ninja outfits with mesh underwear underneath.

From his appearance, he was just an ordinary ninja uncle, with nothing special about him.

But it is precisely this seemingly ordinary man who has supported the village of Sunagakure to this day.

Since funding was cut, Sunagakure's income has mostly come from the Kazekage's hard work and dedication.

In this vast sea of ​​sand, placer gold is a rare treasure.

He casually acquired a rare find of placer gold in the desolate desert.

However, for a village, even if it obtains gold dust, it is only a drop in the ocean and cannot fundamentally solve its predicament.

"Luo Sha!"

"Grandma Chiyo, you're back," the Fourth Kazekage replied, his expression slightly unusual.

Granny Chiyo knew in her heart that Rasa had always been like this, not good at expressing his emotions.

So she didn't stand on ceremony and went straight into talking about what she had seen and heard in Konoha.

The reason she took so long to return to Sunagakure was because she visited many small ninja villages along the way.

Some of these visits were very fruitful, while others yielded no results.

She had already sent some of the important letters back to Sunagakure using her summoning beasts, but Granny Chiyo still felt it would be more appropriate to report to Rasa in person.

To avoid missing any crucial information.

Sunagakure is in a difficult situation now, and it cannot afford to make any mistakes no matter what happens, because it has lost its ability to develop itself.

The Sand Village now has no choice but to ally with the Leaf Village, so it is acting with extreme caution.

Grandma Chiyo then looked up at the sky and saw the stars twinkling haphazardly.

Just like the unpredictable nature of life, and as full of unknowns as the Sand Village introducing the power of Konoha.

Konoha is full of talented people; they possess what Sunagakure desperately needs most right now: resources, technology, and stable support.

The First Sunagakure probably never imagined that Sunagakure would fall into such a state of decline after it came to their generation.

Not only are they unable to develop independently, but they even have to send their daughter, a ninja, into the arms of their enemy.

Joining forces with Konoha now is practically pushing their own child into a fire pit.

but!

A ninja is someone who can endure things that others cannot.

While it's possible to act impulsively in the pursuit of revenge, Granny Chiyo believed that Rasa wouldn't allow his people to be put in a desperate situation.

The Fourth Kazekage stared at the furnace before him, his cold gaze revealing a burning flame.

Life is about enduring constant patience.

Some people persevered and became great figures who went down in history.

Some people, however, failed to persevere and ended up as mediocre, or even as discarded by the times.

Although Sunagakure is in a difficult situation and seems to have become a de facto waste, we are fortunate to still be alive.

As long as you live, there is still hope, and you can wait for the next era to arrive.

Moreover, before the ninja era, no one realized that humans could be so powerful.

In an era when samurai lords controlled all the world's resources, they never imagined anyone could overthrow them.

Fate does not favor any one person, nor does it favor any one country.

If they persevere, Sunagakure will one day be able to seize the opportunity that fate has bestowed upon them.

Sunagakure must survive until that day comes.

Luo Sha felt no remorse whatsoever for giving his daughter to Biruko; on the contrary, he took it for granted.

Although there was a significant age gap between the two, given Hiruko's abilities, marrying his daughter was not a bad deal.

but.

Chapter 89 Kissing Tsunade

It's a bit of a shame that he can only be a minor character, since Hiruko has already made it clear that he wants to marry Tsunade.

But it doesn't matter. It's a good thing for such a gifted person to marry many wives. As for Temari, he has already arranged for her to be specially trained.

A seductive female ninja could influence Hiruko's decision-making, and even a small one would be a huge gain for Sunagakure.

This time, Granny Chiyo went to Sunagakure and naturally realized that the source of Konoha's change was Hiruko.
