From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth was panicking.

Compared to the end of the Warring States Period, he was even more panicked at this time.

Things were different back then.

The long-term conflicts between the ninja clans in the Warring States Period, where they used all means to weaken each other, resulted in the death of their loved ones in every war.

Even the descendants of the head of a clan are no exception.

At the end of the Warring States period, Hashirama Senju was the first to want to end the war and achieve lasting peace.

At that time, although the aristocratic group was in a panic when the ninja village was founded, the ninjas and civilians did not unite together.

Ninjas still need the rule of the aristocratic group over the common people in order to obtain support in terms of resources.

The common people also need the aristocratic group as their representative to restrain the conflicts among the ninjas from affecting the common people.

Due to the huge disparity in power, a ninja with the ability to refine chakra, even a child who has not yet entered ninja school, has the power to kill several adults.

In contrast, there is no way for ninjas and civilians to unite, and they are naturally two groups.

but now……

The power of the school organization called Haki can even be mastered by ordinary people, and Haki can naturally restrain chakra.

Over the years, the emergence of Haki perfectly filled the individual differences between ordinary people and ninjas.

And the most important thing is thought.

The ideological class began with the Third Ninja World War and spread from the Rain Country to the surrounding areas. The things described in it were all things that were strictly prohibited by the daimyo in the past from being circulated among the people.

Even the Kage of a ninja village is only experimenting with his political ideas within the scope of a village, which is not worth mentioning to the ninja world or a big country.

But now... new ideas are analyzing major and minor events in past history, and now even ordinary people will ask why.

This would have been unthinkable in the past.

Orders were issued, and the daimyo and nobles used their surnames as honorifics, and under the natural rule, no ordinary people would ask why, and no one dared to ask.

Now...now ordinary people have begun to question the orders of the Daimyo Prefecture. Even after gaining the power to resist, more than a dozen towns in the Fire Nation have rebelled.

At the noble meeting before this, the daimyo of the five major countries were in high spirits. Even though there were signs of something wrong in Konoha, they were not worried about not being able to suppress it.

In the past, even Hashirama Senju could only surrender. The God of Ninja was no more than that, let alone ordinary ninjas.

But starting from Konoha, intelligence from the Hidden Mist Village showed problems, followed by a coup within the Hidden Sand Village, and then the Hidden Cloud Village supported the school's entry into the Land of Lightning...

In an instant, four of the five major ninja villages stood on the side of the academy.

Therefore, even the daimyo who was once high and mighty had to come to the Iwagakure Village in person to test it.

"Why did the Daimyo come here in person? I can come over if you want."

As soon as Oonoki entered the door, his face was full of smiles, even a little respectful.

Ying is also one of the jades, so he is not called sir.

But Ōnoki still had the same attitude as before, which made the Daimyo of the Land of Earth feel relieved.

So the rebels in the school haven't arrived yet?

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth was somewhat confused, but he still spoke according to the plan: "The ninja world has become increasingly chaotic recently, and those rebels who spread evil ideas are ready to make a move. As the Daimyo, I must come and see how Iwagakure is preparing."

"There have been a lot of high-paying missions recently, and Iwagakure must take on the responsibilities of the agreement. Only when the Daimyo Prefecture and the entire ninja world are stable, can Iwagakure be stable..."

Ohnoki nodded sincerely.

"What the Daimyo said is right. These fools who only have wishful thinking will eventually fail. Iwagakure originally established the ninja village with the support of the Land of Earth, and the Daimyo also played a role in the establishment of the village."

"In the past, my teacher always told me that the fate of Iwagakure is connected to the Land of Earth."

"Those idiots in Konoha, they don't understand and that's why they are dragging the Land of Fire to hell with them. The Third Shinobi World War didn't hurt them. This time, as long as the four major ninja villages unite under the auspices of the Daimyo, they will definitely be able to destroy the entire Konoha."

After these words fell, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth was stunned.

Before coming, his staff had carefully analyzed the character of the Third Tsuchikage.

Now it seems...is it because there were no undercover agents in other villages that we were unable to obtain the intelligence in the first place?
The fact that he was able to deduce that if Konoha was destroyed, the Land of Fire would inevitably be divided up by the four major nations proves that he is not senile.

But... this is a good thing for my own purpose.

Thinking of this, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth waved his fan and said, "The Tsuchikage is right. The fate of the Daimyo's mansion and the Ninja Village is mutual, but Konoha just can't understand this."

"Now we are just waiting for the attitude of the Fire Country Daimyo. They are hesitant and afraid, but this is the rule. When it can't be delayed any longer, Konoha will be destroyed."

These words made Oonoki compliment him again and again.

But in fact, there is disdain and sneer in the heart.

The strongest power institutions of each major country have changed their positions. In this situation, what does Damingfu matter?
Even Iwagakure, because he was the last one, forgot to ask for material support, and he didn't dare to ask again afterwards.

So...Onoki, who has always been unwilling to suffer losses, naturally set his sights on the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Earth.

The daimyo prefecture has ruled the world for a very long time, since before the Warring States period.

The wealth accumulated inside is huge, and it is likely that it will be confiscated by the school in the future. But before that, if you can get a batch of it, then naturally everything you get is yours.

"Hey……"

After a long sigh, Oonoki's face became very sad.

"The Daimyo should know that during the Third Shinobi World War, in order to bite off a piece of Kumogakure, we ambushed them on their retreat route."

"The plan went smoothly, but was eventually broken by the Third Raikage. That reckless man single-handedly stopped 10,000 of my ninjas, and in the end, after paying an unknown price, he exhausted his chakra and died of exhaustion."

As he spoke, Oonoki sighed repeatedly.

"Iwagakure suffered heavy losses... and it has only been a few years since the Third Ninja World War ended, and the village has not yet recovered."

"In terms of economy, due to the recent support from the Daimyo Prefecture, there have been a lot of mission commissions in the past six months. But... this is only for six months."

Oonoki complained, his face full of worry.

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth also had an unpleasant look on his face at this moment.

This is asking for money...

After talking for nearly half an hour, Ohnogi turned around and said, "It's not that we can't fight. What I'm mainly worried about is the problem of the Daimyo Prefecture dividing the Land of Fire. If we can't have a bite of Konoha's cake and the Land of Fire's cake, then the power of the villages behind us will be even more incomparable."

"Iwagakure is the power of the Land of Earth. In order to protect the Land of Earth, Iwagakure must retain some of its power, so..."

Ohnoki stopped talking and felt a little dry in the mouth. He took a sip of tea and was about to continue.

"Snapped."

The fan of the Land Kingdom Daimyo fell on the coffee table.

"Tell me...how much do you want?"

Ōnoki smiled awkwardly: "I'm not doing this for Iwagakure..." Before he could finish his words, the daimyo interrupted him again: "Although it's rude to interrupt the Tsuchikage, the daimyo's mansion is not rich, so I want to know how much support the Tsuchikage needs."

Oonoki still smiled, but he just rubbed his hands together.

He waved his hand and a dark tribe came down.

A list of supplies that had just been prepared was handed over.

Oonoki took a glance and felt a pang in his heart.

I wrote in such a hurry just now that I forgot to print the paper needed for the subsequent ideology class in the Ninja School. In addition, I also need to ask for some student subsidies.

The new generation is the key force in the future competition with other ninja villages. After the emergence of the power of Haki, some ordinary children will also be needed to take in war orphans.

After all, being able to awaken domineering aura does not depend on physique, but on willpower.

A stack of lists was handed over, and the Daimyo of the Land of Earth's eyes twitched.

What do you want to do?
Is this a robbery?
Although it was nothing compared to Daming Prefecture, but after taking such a big bite...his flesh hurt.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

However, soon, the daimyo, whose eyes were twitching, was stunned and looked up at Ōnoki, who was smiling.

There's something wrong with this old fox.

With such a large number, according to past experience, the other party does not know the specific situation of Daming Prefecture, so naturally they would not ask for such an exorbitant amount.

So... this old fox knows the current situation?
Yes, the short old man in front of him can be said to be the only third generation in office. He has been famous for his cunning since he succeeded the Tsuchikage.

It is impossible for such a person not to have spies in various ninja villages.

The two Jade from the Land of Earth stared at each other, but Ōnoki did not back down.

He was aware of the other party's reaction, but he still didn't care.

So what if you react?
They were just meat on the chopping board. This group of nobles was just like him who had just faced the gentleman.

Is there a choice? No!
"The Tsuchikage doesn't seem to think that the fate of Iwagakure and the Land of Earth are bound together as they say."

The daimyo's voice was a little cold.

But Ōnoki still didn't care: "The losses of Iwagakure in the Third Shinobi World War were too great. They will have to start another war in just a few years. They must satisfy the village."

"Iwagakure and the daimyo made an agreement first, and those people seemed to think that Iwagakure was weak, so I am sitting here to discuss with the daimyo."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth fixed his eyes.

Do you think Iwagakure is weak?

After taking control of the four major ninja villages, they felt that the only one left, Iwagakure, was not worth mentioning, so they ignored this place.

It is precisely because of this that Daimyo Prefecture became the choice of Iwagakure.

But why... does it feel like something is wrong?
"The daimyo may go back to discuss it, but preparations for war cannot be made all at once. At present, Iwagakure needs to prepare, otherwise even the daimyo's mansion in the Land of Earth may be difficult to protect..."

Oonoki was still smiling.

But this smile seemed so evil to the Daimyo of the Land of Earth.

Dissatisfaction, anger, all these emotions were suppressed.

Things are different now. In the past, Ying, who had to be questioned by the daimyo, can now threaten the daimyo's mansion with his safety!

Moreover, they could not exercise checks and balances in the same way as in the past, and even the daimyo's questioning of the agreed agreement could not be carried out.

"I'll...think about it carefully."

Leaving behind a word, Daimyo left the meeting room.

Soon, the guards escorted the noble daimyo out of the Iwagakure Village.

In the conference room, several senior executives were discussing Daimyoji's attitude just now.

"Old man, I heard from them... If the Daimyo knows that we are aware of the situation, will he refuse to give it to us? And if we calculate the time, it is indeed a bit tight."

Ohnoki turned around and looked at Huangtu when he heard this: "Do you still use your brain?"

One sentence choked him.

But then Onoki still replied: "The daimyofu had no choice, and he also heard the final conditions I gave. After understanding, he had no choice but to give it."

"The four great ninja villages have already stood on the side of the academy. We are not strong enough to fight them. But we are the last force, and we only want to protect the daimyo's mansion. Finally, we can negotiate with the academy based on this, which is also an option."

"Hehe... Do you really think I don't know how much wealth the Daimyo has accumulated? That's thousands of years of accumulation in the entire ninja world. In comparison, how much do I want?"

Huang Tu's eyes widened upon hearing this, and he quickly said, "In that case, old man, why don't you ask for more? They have to give it to you anyway!"

At this time, a senior official nearby kindly reminded: "It's too much. One reason is that they are worried that the Daming Prefecture would rather spend money than lives. In addition, if one of the five great countries is plundered by us, the subsequent schools will definitely be dissatisfied."

Another old man continued, "Once we open our mouths, we will have no advantage against the academy. It is not impossible for us to spit out everything."

Ohnoki frowned. "The change in the system will undoubtedly lead to a redistribution of resources. We'll eat one-fifth first. What will the others eat?"

"We are one of the five major ninja villages, but we have the most schools. In the future, we will definitely be ordinary people. Don't put yourself in the spotlight for the sake of the immediate benefits."

……

Three days later. The five major countries’ nobles’ common interests meeting.

At this meeting, the five daimyos all looked unhappy.

They all knew that the situation had become a matter of life and death.

Ordinary people can awaken the power of domineering, which brings the untouchables and ninjas together. This is the most fundamental difference.

And because of this... they can even see the future being overturned at this moment.

When did it start?

five years ago?
No, it should be the time when the Rain Country used its strength to keep the three major ninja villages out.

After so many years of comfortable life, what they see first is benefits rather than crises.

They gave the school five years to develop, and even with the participation of some lower-class nobles, the promotion of the school became more convenient.

Some of those traitors had received management education.

"Tell me about it."

The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning spoke up: "It is now the final moment. Those peasants and ninjas want to overthrow us. If we don't come up with a solution now, we will end up being hanged!"

Such words made several daimyos shudder.

Fear of death, but there is nothing I can do.
