The alarm clock on the table pointed to two in the morning. This was a rare experience for Naruko to wake up in the middle of the night because of a nightmare.
That's what dreams are like.
The character collapses, there is no logic, and it is out of touch with the facts...
But is this really the case?
After a few minutes, she recovered, covered her chest with her hands, and looked at me with sharp eyes, as if she had made a decision.
However, love troubles are only the privilege of these boys and girls in Konoha.
Having never seen darkness with her own eyes, it is not an exaggeration to describe Naruko as being as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
He doesn't have the leisure time to deal with the twisted fox boy and the extremely evil and dark nine-tailed imp.
Whenever there is a mission, Menma always sneaks away alone...
Ninjas do not have the right to enter and leave the ninja village freely. Any outbound activities must be reported and approved.
Mission trips are a rare opportunity for free time and to get to know the outside world.
It seemed that the boy was being lazy, and he never hid this fact.
In fact, he was investigating the local conditions and customs of the mission area in the name of laziness.
Whenever he arrives in a new place, Menma goes deep into the grassroots to experience people's livelihood and gain real intelligence.
The mind is the principle, study things to gain knowledge, and integrate knowledge and action.
This is the life of the poor and ordinary people in the countryside of the Land of Fire that Menma investigated. This is how they eat, wear, live and travel:
Poor people wore coarse linen, a material with particularly rough texture. Most of their clothes were gray-brown in color, and they usually had only a few sets of clothes to change into.
Except for wearing a thicker coat in winter, I wear the same clothes in the other three seasons.
There is even a saying: "If someone's wife has five sets of clothes, she has no moral integrity."
For them, five pieces of clothing are a luxury.
This is clothing.
Farming depends entirely on manpower.
There are very few factories in the Fire Nation, and fertilizers and pesticides are still a long way from becoming widely available.
The lack of pesticides and fertilizers results in low per-acre yield.
As for the grain you get? You give 40% to 50% to the landlords, and 10% to the government. How much grain is left for your family?
Fortunately, they will replace fine grains with coarse grains so that they can have a little more food.
Farming is physical work, and manual farming is very hard work. Those who are too weak to work will most likely starve to death.
If a famine occurs, the poor will be even more pitiful. They can only eat leaves, dig wild vegetables, and use the bran fed to pigs to fill their stomachs.
The poor who cannot even get these can only become beggars and walk dozens of miles to places with better conditions to beg for food.
If they can't survive this, they will starve to death on the way and their bodies will be eaten by wild beasts.
Many, many people died in this way.
This is food.
They live in houses made of thatch and loess.
There is no running water or alternating current in the room, let alone air conditioning, toilets, or various household appliances that are common in Konoha, and the room is also very poor in terms of resistance to wind and rain.
In July they are in the wild, in August they are in the house, in September they are outside the house, and in October they go under the bed.
Rats, cockroaches, and all kinds of insects are frequent visitors to the house, and the sanitary conditions in the house are extremely poor.
In summer, the buzzing of flies and mosquitoes makes it difficult to fall asleep.
The winter was extremely cold, and there wasn't even a quilt to keep the beds warm. Some poor people even froze to death in their beds.
The roads are mostly muddy. Just imagine wearing tattered straw clogs and walking on the bumpy yellow earth. Your feet will already be dirty.
This is residence.
Ordinary people are not ninjas, they have not gone through the training of refining and using chakra, nor have they strengthened their bodies.
The roads are mostly muddy and there are sharp stones that hurt your feet and pierce your flesh.
Just imagine wearing tattered straw sandals and walking on the bumpy yellow soil, your feet would have been dirty long ago.
My feet would ache after walking less than two miles, and it would be dark after walking only a few dozen miles. It was very inconvenient to go out and do things.
Therefore, traveling is very tiring for the poor, and most of them never leave their village in their entire lives.
Even when traveling on horseback, a good purebred horse can run at around 40 kilometers per hour.
Riding a horse is very physically demanding, and it is even more painful when it is cloudy, rainy, and the road is muddy.
Moreover, horses need to eat horse feed, which most people simply cannot afford to raise.
Therefore, even if one could afford a horse, one would not travel far unless there was something special.
This is the line.
They cannot avoid the cold in winter or the heat in summer, and they work hard for most of their lives but still cannot get enough to eat.
Life is so hard.
For this world, life in Konoha is an aristocratic life that people can never even imagine.
If you die in battle, there is a tomb. If your body cannot be found, there is a cenotaph with your clothes and hats, and your name is engraved on the tombstone.
Also, regarding last names...
The origins of the surnames in the Fire Nation can be traced back to the aristocratic class. Some of the surnames were granted by official positions, while others were taken from the place names of their residence.
To this day, surnames are a symbol of nobility and a sign of family distinction.
It is a class symbol that only landlords, literati, wealthy people, tycoons, big landlords, and even ninjas have.
Common people are not allowed to use surnames; this is written into the law.
Those who do not have a surname may not be poor, but those who have a surname are definitely from a certain family, and a poor family is also from a certain family.
Most people don't have surnames, so it is customary in this world to call each other by their first names.
In addition, throughout their long history, all the ninja clans in Konoha, regardless of size, have fought for surnames that symbolize their class status.
From day to night, Menma is always in such a hurry every day. He is growing all the time, but he is also too busy to take a break.
How can we sit idly by and watch the dangers in the world?
Be angry and change the world.
Even during his vacation when he had no field missions, the boy couldn't stop.
At six o'clock in the morning, in the forest of Konoha's Nanga River, a blond boy was carrying out a training program to improve his basic physical fitness.
The surroundings were in a mess and he looked a little disheveled, as if he had not been at peace the entire night.
However, what is the girl who has the same blood as the boy doing now?
At 6:33 in the morning, in the residence, Mingzi was yawning while eating breakfast.
The maid, who had read out the schedule, was tidying up her room upstairs.
The living room has been tidied up and the bookshelves are filled with books, among which the photo of the couple is particularly eye-catching.
During the day, the blond boy allocates his time like this: training, practical projects, socializing...
1. Cultivation: This is easy to understand, it is what we did before...
It can be theoretical practice through reading books, or physical practice.
The learning efficiency with a master and without a master is different. Menma knows this pain very well, so he believes so firmly in the "master omnipotence theory".
It's one thing if you can learn it, but if you can't get access to these ninjutsu, how can you learn it?
It is easy to say that creating one's own ninjutsu, but the talent, time, energy and risk required are more than ten times that of learning ninjutsu.
Therefore, he had to please Tamamo to help himself recover his strength and reduce the necessary rest time as much as possible.
2. Practical projects: This is easy to understand. Test results and accumulate experience in battle, learn in battle, and grow in battle.
He went to fight with the children of Konoha's famous families in the name of being brave and righteous and helping the weak.
If you really can't find it, then use high-difficulty pranks as tactical goals and serve as your own actual combat exercise subjects.
For example, Menma once did: pouring gold water on the door of the Uchiha clan, and then framing the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan, and vice versa (the reason for the extermination of the Uchiha clan +1)
Actual combat drills aside, this seemingly meaningless behavior has other benefits: it soothes the body and mind, cultivates sentiment, adjusts emotions, and avoids mental problems under high-pressure environments.
The smile doesn’t disappear, it just shifts.
Since the Uchiha, Sarutobi and other aristocratic families have lost their smiles, then the smile will naturally be on me.
3. Social: social interaction and intelligence gathering.
Using connections and backdoors may seem shameless, but they are very useful.
For example...
As long as little Loli Hanabi is happy, she will tell you all the weaknesses of the Byakugan on a whim.
For example...
As long as the beautiful little loli from Konoha is happy, she can steal the Fire Release Scroll from the Sarutobi family and show it to you.
What is a shortcut? This is a shortcut!
The galgame mode's casting-net-style operation is well understood by those who know the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series. Once the favorability level reaches a certain level, people will give you skills.
Cast a wide net, make good connections, and build connections...
He is magnanimous and generous, knows how to treat people, has the spirit of Emperor Gaozu, and is a hero...
A capable minister who governs the world, a traitor who is a traitor in troubled times.
With desires that are too high and ideals that are too ambitious, Uzumaki Menma is bound to become physically and mentally exhausted.
What about Naruko Namikaze?
Naruko's schedule was arranged by the Sandaime Hokage himself: what time to report to which jonin teacher and what to learn were all arranged clearly.
Occasionally, the Hokage would take some free time to personally check her training results and point out her mistakes.
Sometimes when Jiraiya came back, he would teach her a few tricks.
Of course, in addition to these, the most important point is that the Third Hokage is very concerned about her mental state.
The Hokage has always been upset about his disciple's defection, and believes that he did not notice her change of mind in time.
Therefore, even though the Sandaime Hokage has high hopes for Naruko, he will not put too much pressure on her, and she has plenty of time for entertainment and rest.
By late night, the girl had already rested, but the boy was still practicing.
Maybe this would make it seem like he was having a miserable life?
However, Menma never thought that his life was bitter or tragic.
Konohagakure: The scale of the ninja village is not large, but not small either. Although it is a village, it is more like a small town, or a garrison that combines farming and warfare.
The living standard is extremely high. The entire ninja village has been electrified and people live a life with "electricity and telephones upstairs and downstairs".
According to Menma, "This ninja village seems to be a bit urbanized."
The Uzumaki family is a famous family among the ninjas. In other words, no matter how bad you are, you can just take a step back and become a son-in-law, and the landlords and rich people outside will all be vying for you.
What is the identity of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?
There are hundreds of millions of ordinary people in this world...
There are only about 100,000 ninjas at most, right? How many people don't have the chance to become a ninja...
99% of ninjas are Chunins their entire lives...
Only a handful of the best among the jonin can grow into legendary ninjas like the three ninjas or the five kages...
However, the lower limit of the growth of the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki is guaranteed to be an elite jonin.
As for being discriminated against and treated like a monster, I don't feel any pain at all.
Konoha is Rome, and I was born in Rome. I was born with these resources that others cannot obtain even if they work hard for their entire lives.
