In addition to the "Shadow Guard Organization" that Advisor Gojo promised privately, this was one of the reasons why he couldn't wait to sign up for the Kirigakure Freedom Operation.
"It turns out that Kirigakure is the strongest enemy Konoha may encounter in the future."
Bingzu Leitong was filled with emotion. At this moment, the Byakugan ninja in charge of the outpost observation suddenly shouted excitedly: "It, it appeared!"
"It really appeared! There are so many ships!"
From the perspective of an inland ninja, it is really difficult to see so many ships appear at once in a lifetime.
As far as the eye could see, dense black dots suddenly appeared on the sea level.
Ferries and merchant ships of varying sizes were rushing desperately to the Land of Hot Springs as if they were fleeing.
When you get closer, you can even observe uncontrollable fear on the faces of these refugees, as if something deadly is chasing them.
"Elbow! Go meet them!"
There was no need to issue the same order, as most of the people present were Chunins and Genins of Konoha, and they were all eager to get going. The bonus for the mission was tied to the number of heads, which meant that the more heads you pulled in the end, the more generous the reward you would get.
This kind of mission, which has little combat risk and offers generous rewards, is perfect for these Chunins and Genins.
Ninja Run! It's Ninja Run!
One by one, the Konoha ninjas stepped onto the water and completed the contact mission quickly.
When the first rescued Kirigakure villager came to his senses, he told the Konoha ninja the whole story with lingering fear:
"The village and the country are in chaos. They are completely in chaos."
"The Mizukage was also assassinated and is nowhere to be found."
More and more refugees from the Water Country arrive, and everyone talks to piece together the fragments of what happened.
After a while, they understood what had happened.
Just as described in the intelligence, civil strife really broke out in Kirigakure!
A voice of opposition that had been suppressed for a long time since the implementation of the Blood Mist Policy erupted like a volcano. And behind that opposition force were several great nobles from the Land of Water who opposed the daimyo.
Not only the ninjas were in chaos, but even the samurai were in chaos, and the entire country and village fell into horrific civil strife.
The Fourth Mizukage, the shadow of the village, seemed to have also been attacked and is missing.
The Blood Mist and Reformist Ninjas were fighting each other, while those ordinary ninjas who did not want to be involved in the trouble and suffered from the oppression of the Blood Mist took off their ninja forehead protectors and joined the fleeing crowd.
Looking around, how many people are there?
At first glance, it seemed that there were too many people to count. A rough estimate was that there were probably more than a thousand people gathered near their Konoha base. Among them were ordinary ninjas, wealthy merchants, small nobles, and ordinary citizens of unknown professions...
On the sea, there are still a steady stream of ships appearing.
A whole large oil well blew out.
"Everyone, don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss!" Akai, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, shouted in the crowd.
Such a chaotic scene almost made this well-trained physical ninja lose his footing.
As long as the mission requirements say that they want to accept pure ninjas and merchants from the Land of Water in the Hidden Mist...
Might Guy and other Konoha ninjas could only show their friendly side as much as possible, for fear that too much chakra would leak out and scare people away.
"Not good... This scene is a bit too chaotic."
Asuma Sarutobi, with a cigarette in his mouth, was struggling to maintain order in the situation.
All the plans are complete, but there is always a loophole, and problems will be discovered when they are actually implemented.
These ninjas might be good at completing D-level missions and catching random people, but it's a bit difficult to complete the resettlement work. It's easy to resettle one person, but it's a headache to resettle hundreds of people, not to mention how to filter out the right target.
It seemed that no one present had ever served as a leader or presided over the work of receiving refugees.
Only when it comes to this kind of situation can one realize the difficulty of being a leader. Asma said with emotion: "The advisor is great, no need to say more."
The chaotic relocation work at the Konoha base lasted until about two o'clock in the afternoon.
The continuous influx of refugees from the Water Country has finally slowed down.
Sitting in the commander's tent, he rubbed his brows in embarrassment. Is he the right person for this? He is just a special ninja from Konoha who doesn't have much of a role!
"Asuma, are the statistics out yet?"
"It's out." Asuma looked haggard. The lighter in his pocket was taken away by the unruly people of the Water Country while he was putting it away. What a terrible thing.
"As of now, there are a total of 3144 refugees from the Land of Water, of which more than 3000 are ordinary people whose identities and occupations cannot be counted at the moment, and dozens of ninjas from all over the Land of Water."
"The vast majority are genin, with a small number of chuunin."
Asuma reminded.
The ninja world is still quite conservative in this regard. Generally speaking, taking off one's ninja forehead protector or making a scratch on it means breaking away from one's past ninja identity.
Either leave the ninja profession and return to production, or become a rebel ninja.
When Advisor Gojo first proposed that they could try to accept pure ninjas from other villages, they were strongly opposed by the conservatives led by the elders of the Mitomon clan.
Asma also once sided with the conservatives.
But when Asuma saw with his own eyes the state of these ninjas after taking off their forehead protectors, he silently changed his previous political stance.
Although it is not absolute, but in the eyes of these Water Country refugee ninjas, Asuma only saw the desire to survive!
Consultant Gojo once said that the eyes are the windows to the soul and they cannot be deceived.
Being a ninja, after all, is a profession to support a family.
Things like "hatred" and "glory" are things that only senior ninjas consider. For these ordinary lower-level ninjas who are swept up in the general trend, there are really not so many twists and turns.
"Ah, what is going on?" Asuma shook his head, hesitating whether to use fire escape to light his cigarette: "Bizuki Jonin, how should we proceed with our work?"
"This problem... let's not talk about it for now. I have already sent an urgent distress signal to the village, and someone will be sent to deal with it."
"Let's talk about the refugees outside first. What is their attitude towards joining Konoha?"
"It's not good."
"Most people want to rest in the Kingdom of Hot Springs for a while, and then return to their hometowns after the civil unrest in the Kingdom of Water has subsided."
……
……
The Konoha stronghold was in a mess, and the Kumogakure stronghold was not much better, if not worse.
The Hidden Cloud Ninjas who advocate the use of force are like wild beasts. Under the order and the iron fist of the Raikage, they become a group of wild beasts tied with ropes.
As for the Land of Water, under the high-pressure environment of the long-term blood mist rule of the Hidden Mist Village, they are quite sensitive to unfamiliar environments. As soon as they come into contact with the Hidden Cloud Ninja, they dislike each other, and friction is inevitable.
"Damn it! It's so frustrating!"
A Kumogakure Chunin was indignant and punched the beam. They were just a group of refugees, but they dared to confront them, the Kumogakure Ninja.
Really desperate!
"If it weren't for...if it weren't for the order from Lord Raikage."
The Kumogakure Chunin sighed and stroked his ninja forehead sadly.
There are many different opinions on the interpretation of the words engraved on the forehead guard.
Some people think that this is the beginning of the village’s decline, while others think that this is the beginning of a shift in the will of the village’s top leaders.
In short, during this sensitive period, even the beast-like Cloud Ninjas are restraining their hearts and trying their best to avoid friction and conflict with the outside world.
No one knows whether he or she will become the first chicken to be killed to scare the monkeys when the political wind changes.
"It's not a good idea to keep so many people in the base all the time. The number of ration pills and medical scrolls consumed every day is huge."
"Hasn't there been any guidance from above?"
Everyone knew that something would happen in the Hidden Mist Village, but no one expected that this rebellion would not only affect the Hidden Mist military department, but would also cause unrest in the entire Water Kingdom.
The scale and scope of its influence are so large that it is simply the most annoying example since the beginning of the Ninja Village era.
The Cloud Village Chunin took off his forehead guard to clean the sweat stains on it. Suddenly, he heard his companions calling out from the tent. Without having the time to put it back on, he placed the forehead guard next to the sink and walked into the tent.
At this moment, several refugees from the Water Country passed by the sink and saw the words engraved on the back of the forehead protector.
They showed a look of surprise: "I was wondering why these apes from Kumogakure suddenly seemed to have changed their nature. It turns out there are words on the back of their forehead protectors!"
"There are words on the back of the forehead protector? What's wrong with that?"
"Look at the attitude revealed on this forehead protector... our good days may be coming! The Hidden Cloud Village will definitely treat us, the Water Country refugees, well."
The leader of the small refugee group had a shrewd light in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had some brains in his eyes.
Although they are idle in the Water Country, do not work, have not received many years of education and cannot read a few words, most of them work as zero-dollar shopping guides in the Water Country...
However, this did not prevent them from becoming a popular choice after fleeing from the Water Country to the Hidden Cloud Village... good citizens!
The astute refugees from the Water Country seemed to have figured out the profound meaning of the words behind the forehead protector.
This is to show goodwill to good citizens like him in other countries!
"I remember some brothers fled to the Konoha base? Hurry and bring them here. Our good days are coming!"
The refugee leader gave the order at a rapid speed. Coincidentally, the unbelievable voice of the Cloud Hidden Ninja came from the tent:
"what?!"
"Everyone is welcome, and we accept all of them, and we treat them well?!"
"Assigned to the southern part of the village? Isn't this ridiculous?!"
"Why would Lord Raikage give such an order? Is he serious?"
“The advisory board’s opinion? A quarrel? But isn’t this still an approved order? If it’s approved, it’s Raikage-sama’s problem…”
Inside the tent, the face of the Kumogakure Chunin, who was receiving orders passed down layer by layer, had completely darkened.
He didn't understand why the top leaders of Kumogakure would issue such a ridiculous order. The ninjas on the front line could identify the cunning and evil Water Country refugees from the refugee group at a glance.
Absorb these unproductive guys into Yunyin?
Wouldn't that ruin everything?
The Hidden Cloud Village is neither big nor small, but it is divided into several modules based on the tribes and ninja clans before the village was built.
Among them, the South District is the area where the people of Kumogakure are the most fierce, and it is also the area that produces the most elite Kumogakure ninjas.
The most wanted criminals in the Hidden Cloud Village, the brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku, came from there.
What on earth were those stupid consultants, whose brains were completely corrupted by their muscles, thinking when they stuffed these refugees into the South District? Were they expecting them to create wealth or become elite ninjas of Kumogakure?
The Kumogakure Chunin, whose skin was as black as charcoal, sighed helplessly. A foreseeable storm was about to sweep through their Kumogakure Village, but he was powerless to stop it.
He is a book lover and has also read "Oki". Sometimes he would fantasize that if he could become an advisor as a Chunin, would he be able to stop this turmoil?
Unfortunately, without ifs, he could not be Gojo Jieyue.
He waved his hand helplessly and had to order his Genin to start the work of relocating the personnel.
"May the First Kumogakure be above us, and may God bless the villagers of the southern district."
Volume 60: 6 Hold a Konoha Green Card and become an honorary Konoha citizen! (K)
"What? You said that the Kumogakure base has begun to accommodate the Water Country refugees?"
They were all walking around anxiously in the same place.
Although this action probably won't lead to bloodshed, it can be seen as an invisible test, a war without the smoke of gunpowder.
The person who asked the question was the Kumogakure intelligence department that provided the information of "the imminent Kirigakure rebellion", and the two students who answered the question were naturally Kumogakure and Konoha.
The content of the exam is to suck as much blood from Kirigakure as possible and attract more high-quality talents for the village.
This is a rare opportunity in the ninja world to suck blood from other big ninja villages. If you miss it, you don’t know when the next time will be.
"What should I do?"
"Why don't we follow the example of Kumogakure and accept them all? If it's too late, the refugees from the base will be secretly sent there."
Without Bingzu Leitong noticing, several familiar yet unfamiliar figures had quietly arrived at Konoha's stronghold.
