People in Naruto: Hinata's family split? Just open it up!

Anyway, ninjutsu can kill people, and so can swords. What's the difference?

The initial reason for this policy was that the Kingdom of Rain captured the Kingdom of Iron.

There are so many warriors in the Iron Kingdom, so they can't be without treatment, so there is such a rule.

As a result, not long after the Iron Kingdom was acquired, other countries came over, and then the connection between the Rain Kingdom and the Iron Kingdom was severed.

This policy did not affect the Kingdom of Iron, but instead affected the Kingdom of Rain itself.

Out of the 20,000 people in the Akatsuki organization, 10,000 people with chakra would be good, but less than 1,000 people could know a single three-body technique.

As for quantity without quality, don't worry about it.

What Sarutobi Hiruzen cares about is that if his power can expand tenfold in two months, then in another two months, one year, or even two years, will he be able to unify the Rain Country?

"What are your thoughts?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, "Unite with the Country of Rain and suppress the Akatsuki organization?"

After all, Danzo knew that Hanzo was out of business, so he must have been contacted.

"That's indeed what I think!" Danzo nodded: "A Hanzo who has seen the power of a great country and has lost his fighting spirit is more beneficial to us!"

"If the Akatsuki organization, which is full of expansion desires, comes to power, he may unify the Rain Country on the first day and launch the Third Ninja War the next day!"

Danzo didn't know that the Third Ninja War had already begun.

No one thought that the war between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind was the prelude to the Third Ninja War. Many people thought it was just a conflict between two villages.

"Then you can just give Hanzo some advice!" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

Even if he loses his fighting spirit, most of the power of the Kingdom of Rain is still in the hands of the Hidden Rain Village. As long as Hanzo wants to, he can wipe out all organizations.

"That's the problem!" Danzo said: "Hanzo doesn't want to take action against the Akatsuki organization, because the Akatsuki organization was founded by a few teenagers, and Hanzo believes that these young people are the future of Amegakure Village!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless, what kind of future? Aren't you afraid that these people will grow up and steal your position as village chief?

This is how people who grow up as orphans have no sense of crisis at all.

"Keep in touch and persuade slowly!" Hiruzen Sarutobi said: "Our power is not suitable for the moment!"

"What happened?" Danzo asked.

It's just a country of wind, it's not worth Konoha's shrinking strength.

"You'll know just by looking at it!" Hiruzen Sarutobi handed over the second half of the battle report.

The content about Minato chopping melons and vegetables is omitted, so that when Danzo gets the unclear content, he may misjudge Minato's strength and then take action against Minato.

Winning is certainly the best, but it doesn't matter if you don't win, it's just a test of Minato's strength.

If Minato comes looking for him, he can throw Danzo out and take the blame.

Kill three birds with one stone, perfect!

"Xitang Town formed a militia, and relied on bows and arrows to repel the attack of the puppet troops of Sunagakure Village?" Danzo's eyes widened as he looked at the description in the battle report: "There are more than 5,000 militiamen? They also kill wild boars themselves. , fight bandits?"

Wild boars will overrun as long as they are ignored. Both China and the United States are deeply troubled by the overpopulation of wild boars. Even military phased radars are used to prevent wild boars.

The key point is that wild boars are rough-skinned and thick-flesh, and they come in groups. If they don't have guns, ordinary farmers really can't do anything about them.

The Land of Fire also has the problem of wild boar overpopulation, and driving wild boars has become a mainstream task type for Konoha ninjas.

The key to this mission is that it makes a lot of money, is safe, and you can take wild boar meat back with you after it's over, so there are all ninjas who don't like this kind of mission.

Now, the villagers have found a way to deal with the wild boar. Is this okay?

Like Jiraiya and Sarutobi Hiruzen, as a traditional ninja, Danzo's first thought was that doing so might affect the interests of ninjas.

The money that should have been earned by me can no longer be earned. Isn’t that a loss?

If every town in the world behaves like you, how can our Ninja Village survive?

"Danzo obeys the order!"

"Yes!"

Although he quarreled with Hiruzen Sarutobi on weekdays, he still had to obey orders on formal occasions.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen is the Hokage.

"Send your base to investigate across the country to see how many towns have formed their own militia!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Don't act rashly after the investigation. When the results are summarized with me, I will discuss it with the daimyo. , handle it uniformly!”

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know if this was a personal behavior in Saitou Town, or if it was also practiced in other towns.

If there is only one Xitang Town, then there is no need to say anything, just send a ninja to disarm it.

But if other towns also have it, it may not be a problem in these towns. It is very likely that the leader behind it is actually the daimyo himself.

If this is the case, Sarutobi Hiruzen will have to consider changing his name.

After sending Danzo away, Sarutobi Hiruzen started smoking again.

For a moment, the Hokage's office was filled with smoke.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of a question. Every year, every month, or even every day, there were so many ninjas going out on missions. They wandered around various towns. Why didn't they find that these towns were training militia?

Or is it discovered but not reported?

"These ninjas have such poor political vigilance!" Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head. It's not the fault of these ninjas. They have not received education in this area since they were young, and they probably won't think much about it when they see the militiamen.

It had to be Jiraiya, it was a big help!

How could the militia, Akatsuki organization, and Uchiha Obito let him graduate early?

Unfortunately, the war was not urgent at this time, and there was no reason to want a group of students to graduate early.

Let's take another look, don't be in a hurry.

Chapter 170 Planning for the Great War

Sarutobi Hiruzen's level lasted three months.

In the past three months, Sunagakure Village has not attacked again, but has stabilized the border.

But everyone knows that this is just the tranquility before the war.

Sunagakure Village should be researching ways to break Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique. Once they think of a solution, they will immediately launch an attack.

At this time, Konoha's vanguard troops and follow-up troops have arrived. It stands to reason that the opponent has not yet found a way to deal with Minato, so it is a good time to take the initiative to attack.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen sent a letter stating that Konoha cannot take the initiative to enter the Kingdom of Wind and cannot bear the responsibility of invading other countries.

No child would believe such nonsense, but Jiraiya was also a pacifist, so he actually agreed.

As a result, the Konoha army and the Sand Hidden Village troops came to a stalemate at the junction of the Kawa Country and the Wind Country.

The results of Danzo's investigation have also come out.

"Not all towns have formed militia units. After investigation, I found that a total of 27 towns have formed militia units!" Danzo sent the survey results to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "The number of militiamen in these towns ranges from one to two thousand. , as many as seven or eight thousand, generally equipped with wooden armor, leather armor, rattan armor, and some are also equipped with iron armor. The weapons they use are mostly bows and arrows, as well as spears, machetes, kitchen knives, hoes and the like."

"So many?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the summary data. The total number of these militiamen was nearly 20!

"Don't worry, just look at the map!" Danzo said.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and marked these towns on the map one by one.

He didn't know if he didn't mark it, but he discovered it as soon as he marked it.

"Are they all border cities?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"Yes!" Danzo nodded: "These cities are mainly located in the northern part of the Land of Fire, the border area of ​​the Land of Sichuan and the Land of Rain. After investigation, I found that the first city to form a militia was this Red Flower Town."

"Because the Kingdom of Rain is less than 20 miles away from Honghua Town, and there are often scattered ninjas from the Kingdom of Rain who often come to Honghua Town to rob. It happens that there are continuous bamboo forests near Honghua Town, so the residents of Honghua Town He made bows and arrows out of bamboo to protect himself, and the effect was very good. So other towns suffering from wandering ninjas followed suit and formed militia units."

Sarutobi Hiruzen touched his chin, so this is it!

So the border militia was actually forced out by the homeless ninja problem?

Border cities are indeed areas with a high incidence of wandering ninjas. They commit crimes in the Land of Fire and then hide directly in neighboring countries.

There is no one versus four in Konoha now, no treaty has been made, and it is not convenient for ninjas to go to neighboring countries to perform missions. Facing these wandering ninjas, although they are not helpless, the procedures are really troublesome.

We can't station a ninja in every city just to fight against wandering ninjas.

After all, wandering ninjas can communicate with each other. If there are fewer of you stationed, they may gather together and kill this ninja.

If there are more ninjas stationed there, there will be fewer ninjas available in the village, which is also a problem.

It would be a good idea if each town could form a militia to protect itself.

However, if this is the case, it would be hard for Hiruzen Sarutobi to write to the Daimyo to disband these troops.

After all, without the militia, who would fight against the wandering ninjas?

But no matter what, today is the border, and tomorrow it will be the inland's turn. The day after tomorrow, the village next to Konoha may have to form a militia force.

Form a militia?

you can!

But these forces need to be limited and regulated.

For example, there are currently a total of 27 towns with militia, so that’s it. Don’t add any more.

In addition, these militiamen are not allowed to practice chakra extraction methods, their annual training must not exceed two months, and they are not allowed to wear iron armor.

Every month, Konoha will send ninjas to patrol these 27 towns to help control the problem of wandering ninjas. The expenses incurred during this period will be borne by these 27 towns.

Sarutobi Hiruzen wrote down more than a dozen precautions, sorted out the wording, and then handed it to Danzo: "Look, is it feasible to deal with the militia in this way?"

Danzo glanced briefly, then nodded: "Okay!"

Although the militia might affect the ninja's income, Danzo didn't really care.

Anyway, we don’t live by these things at all.

He was willing to do good things just for political exchange with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

I help you, should you help me too?

Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned the ANBU ninja: "Send this to Kyoto, give it to the daimyo, and come back when you get a reply!"

"Yes!" Anbu nodded and left.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo: "Tell me, is there anything else?"

"The Akatsuki organization has grown to nearly 50,000 people, and has occupied nearly one-fifth of the towns in the Land of Rain!" Danzo said: "I have also convinced Hanzo, so I have to take the roots out, but The opponent is powerful after all, so I still need your help!"

This version of the Akatsuki organization has been strengthened too much, and the roots that have not been updated are naturally not enough.

"Fifty thousand?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked by this number and asked curiously: "How did they expand and why did they expand so fast?"

"Take care of food and pay wages!" Danzo said.

"What do you mean?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned and asked.

"In short, the core members of the Akatsuki organization are provided with one meal a day. In addition, the Akatsuki organization pays wages to each core member." Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's confused look, Danzo had to add: " It’s a ninja subsidy!”

"Ninja subsidy?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was dumbfounded: "Everyone gets it?"

"Yes!" Danzo nodded.

"How is this possible!" Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up in shock: "That's 50,000 people. How can a mere Akatsuki organization afford it? We in Konoha don't even dare to do that!"

"Can't afford it?" Danzo asked.

"Ah this." Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then sat down again.

For 3 people, a monthly subsidy of 15 taels is only billion per month.

In fact, you won't be able to give out that many. This must be based on your strength.

Fifty thousand jounin, thirty thousand chunin, ten thousand genin, and five thousand for ordinary people is about the same.

The number of ninjas is far less than that, and there are more ordinary people.

On average, one person can earn less than 6,000 yuan.

Fifty thousand people, that’s 3 million taels.

The Akatsuki organization occupied one-fifth of the towns in the Kingdom of Rain and spent 3 million taels of money every month.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is calculated according to Konoha's standards.

Konoha also provides subsidies to ninjas, but not all ninjas, but the civilian members working in the Hokage's office building, the medical ninjas at Konoha Hospital, the ninjas in the Intelligence Department, and all other ninjas working in Konoha.

They couldn't go out to perform tasks, and it was inconvenient to record office work or medical treatment as tasks, so they might as well change their wages to ninja subsidies.
