Chapter 226 Jiraiya Travels to the Hidden Rain Village
"Jiraiya-sensei?"
Even though Jiraiya was wearing a hat and using transformation techniques to disguise himself.
Nagato recognized the other person's identity at a glance. It was none other than his teacher, Jiraiya, one of the three great ninjas of Konoha.
However, Nagato didn't quite understand why Sensei Jiraiya had to hide his identity and sneak into the Land of Rain.
When they heard Nagato say Jiraiya's name, the Rain Ninjas behind Nagato all turned their eyes to Jiraiya.
The Rain Ninjas are no strangers to the name Jiraiya. Jiraiya is not only one of the three powerful ninjas of Konoha, but also the mentor of many senior officials in the village.
After seeing his fakery exposed, Jiraiya simply canceled the transformation technique, scratched his head awkwardly and said: "Nagato, I didn't expect to see you so soon, I thought I had to wait a few more hours."
At this point, Jiraiya looked behind Nagato and asked with some confusion:
"By the way, Nagato, are you carrying out a secret mission with so many ninjas? If the situation is urgent, I won't bother you."
Nagato shook his head slightly, and then said, "Not really. I am leading my men to maintain the roads in the nearby area and build a flood discharge channel nearby."
"So the cement road around here was built by you guys?"
Jiraiya was surprised, and then said with some envy: "It seems that the Daimyo of the Rain Country is a good man. He is willing to build an expensive road in the border area."
"Daimyo?" Nagato frowned and said, "What does the construction of roads have to do with the daimyo? The roads in the Land of Rain have always been the responsibility of the Hidden Rain Village."
Hearing this, Jiraiya was slightly stunned, and then said: "Without the authorization and funds of the Daimyo, where would you get the money to build roads in the Rain Country? Ninjas must have commissions before they can work, right?"
Now it was Nagato's turn to look surprised. He asked in confusion: "Why do ninjas have to be hired by others to do their work? Can't we do it ourselves?"
"Besides, the Rain Country has long lost its name."
Jiraiya was silent for a few seconds. He realized that the relationship between the Hidden Rain Village and the Rain Country might be different from what he imagined.
Konoha and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire have a cooperative relationship, but there is no Daimyo in the Land of Rain.
After a moment's silence, Jiraiya said, "There is no Daimyo in the Land of Rain. Do you mean that the Daimyo has disappeared, or that he has been…"
"That's not the case..." Nagato paused, then said, "After Bai Ye went to the Daimyo's mansion, the Daimyo of the Rain Country seemed to have voluntarily abdicated and handed over all power to the Hidden Rain Village."
"However, without the daimyo and nobles coming here, the Rain Country has developed much faster."
After hearing Byakuya's name, Jiraiya immediately understood everything. The daimyo must have abdicated because of Byakuya's threat.
Similar situations are not uncommon in the ninja world.
However, generally after the position of daimyo is abolished, a new noble will take the position. It is very rare for a place like Rain Country to have no nobles at all.
At this time, Nagato seemed to remember something and said to Jiraiya:
"By the way, Mr. Jiraiya, you haven't told me the purpose of your visit to the Land of Rain. Is there something important in Konoha that requires cooperation with the Hidden Rain Village?"
"That's not the case. After the war, I have been traveling in the Ninja World. Recently, I happened to travel to the Land of Rain, so I wanted to go see you. I didn't expect to be discovered by you. I missed a surprise..."
After saying that, Jiraiya looked at Nagato again, sighing in his heart.
As time goes by, Nagato's strength becomes stronger and stronger. Even when he deliberately disguises himself, he can see through his fakery at a glance. He is indeed the son of prophecy who possesses the Rinnegan.
Nagato noticed Jiraiya's look and said with a smile:
"Since Jiraiya-sensei has nothing urgent to do, just join the rest of us. After we have patrolled the nearby area, we will return to the village together."
Jiraiya nodded, he also wanted to see how Nagato worked.
The patrol work lasted for most of the day. During that time, Jiraiya saw how Nagato led his subordinates to use ninjutsu to open channels and how he used cement techniques to pave roads.
It's not like he had never seen Konoha ninjas perform similar ninjutsu before.
However, the area managed by Konohagakure is limited to Konohagakure. However, they intervene in the affairs of the Land of Fire almost on a voluntary basis, and will not build cement roads in the streets and alleys of the Land of Rain.
A few hours later, Nagato completed his work and returned to the Hidden Rain Village with Jiraiya.
The Hidden Rain Village is a city full of steampunk style. Compared to the sunny Konoha Village, it looks more like a huge steel factory.
After entering the Hidden Rain Village, Jiraiya was surprised to find that almost all the residents here knew how to perform ninjutsu, so it was not an exaggeration to say that all the residents were ninjas.
Jiraiya frowned when he realized this.
In the ninja world, it is not difficult to become a ninja. As long as you learn how to refine chakra and master the three-body technique and kunai throwing skills, you can become a Genin.
However, such a Genin will only become a cannon fodder in a war and will not be able to handle professional commissions in peacetime. The increase in the number of ninjas will instead reduce the income of each ninja, thus making the gain not worth the loss.
Therefore, among the five major ninja villages, except for the Iwagakure, the other ninja villages will control the number of ninjas and keep the number of ninjas within an appropriate range.
The Hidden Rain Village's decision to make everyone become ninjas made him begin to doubt whether the Hidden Rain Village was going to expand outward. After all, the land of the Rain Country could not support so many ninjas.
But it is impossible for someone like Yahiko to start a war against other countries.
Not long after, Jiraiya arrived at the Hidden Rain Village building. Yahiko and Konan personally welcomed Jiraiya to the reception room and treated him as a VIP.
After some pleasantries, Jiraiya expressed his doubts: "Yahiko, why are there so many ninjas in the Hidden Rain Village?"
In Jiraiya's opinion, it would be better to ask Yahiko directly instead of having doubts and guesses in his heart.
Yahiko was stunned at first, then he smiled and said, "Teacher Jiraiya, you mean those villagers who have mastered one or two ninjutsu. They are not ninjas in the village, but just ordinary people."
"An ordinary person? Can he still be an ordinary person after mastering ninjutsu?" Jiraiya frowned.
Yahiko nodded and went on to explain, "Of course they are ordinary people. Ninjas are mercenaries, and they are just a group of merchants and workers."
"But in the ninja world, those who master ninjutsu are called ninjas."
After a short pause, Jiraiya said earnestly: "For these ordinary people, mastering ninjutsu may not necessarily be a good thing."
