Chapter 244
Finally came the day when the project was to be completed.

Conan stood at the source of the upstream, waved his right hand lightly, and the huge gate of the reservoir was pulled open.

In an instant, countless rivers rushed down, like a white dragon constantly galloping.

"puff!"

"laugh!"

The white dragon moved forward all the way, and with the deafening roar, people on both sides of the river shouted after hearing the news.

"Ah! Ah!"

All the people who saw the river along the way ran after the river like crazy, even if they couldn't catch up with the speed of the river.

People kept falling to the ground due to exhaustion, but they seemed to be unaware of the pain, excitedly continuing to struggle to get up and shouting desperately.

They didn't even know why they shouted like this, why they were so crazy, some people kept laughing and shedding tears, as if they were crazy.
A flying thunder god returned to the camp, and Conan quietly looked at the excited and expectant people in front of him.

These people include the ninjas of Konoha, the ninjas of Sand Ninja, the artisans that Conan found from other countries, and the civilians from the River Country who volunteered to help.

At this moment, these people who would never have intersected at all stood here because of a common wish, and completed a project that was impossible in their imagination.

Everyone was staring in one direction intently, the entire camp was silent and there was no sound, but their eyes were all shining.

There is no doubt that they are proud at the moment.

Being able to participate in such a thing in their lifetime is definitely the most proud thing in their life.

Finally, when they saw the white silver line in the distance, the camp seemed to explode in an instant, boiling up.

"what!"

"oh oh!"

The people in the camp behaved far more crazy than those before, because they personally participated in the construction of the river.

Here they left sweat and memories, paid a lot and got a lot, this project has a greater meaning to them.

People hugged and even kissed each other, roaring wildly.

Looking at the rushing river in front of me, a feeling of happiness and pride arises spontaneously.

For most of the people present, this is probably the most meaningful thing they have participated in in their lives.

"puff!"

Accompanied by the roar of the river rushing into the sea, there was an even crazier cheer resounding through the sky.

"Oh!"

People got even more excited, and some ninjas even used ninjutsu to set off fireworks.

People can't find a suitable way to express their feelings, so they can only release their feelings as they like.

Some people laughed crazily, while others knelt on the ground and wept. For a while, the scene was in chaos, as if a group of demons were dancing.

Conan looked at the scene in front of him and felt relieved.

I have worked so hard, just for today's scene.

Suddenly, the old man who had come to look for Conan before came out with several people in front of Conan, and knelt down directly.

"Thank you! Conan-sama, thank you!"

As the old man knelt down and bowed, he was already weeping uncontrollably.

Conan quickly helped the old man up.

"What are you doing?"

Pushing away Conan's hand, the old man shouted loudly: "You must accept this obeisance, it is because of you that we can see hope, and you deserve it."

The old man looked at the river in front of him and recalled his past.

"I once had three sons, but they all died."

"Two of them starved to death. The Kingdom of Wind is such an environment. Whether they can survive or not depends entirely on God's will."

As he spoke, the old man became more and more sad, with helplessness in his eyes.

"People can barely survive when there is rain. Once the weather is bad, they can only flee with their families. Less than one in ten can survive."

The old man's words made the surrounding people in the Wind Country empathize, and many of them lowered their heads and began to cry.

"Beyond that, it's even more tragic when there's war."

"Over the years, I have seen the deaths of people in several villages because of the ninja's ninja tools polluting the groundwater. I have also seen people starved to death because of ninja wars. I have also seen people who were turned into human bombs. , the civilians being driven to fill the traps"

Hearing the old man's words, many civilians in the Land of Wind cried even harder, and the ninjas silently lowered their heads, feeling guilty.

They are also reflecting on whether what they have done has caused such consequences.

Conan couldn't help feeling sad when he looked at the crying people in front of him.

Although the ninjas suffered heavy casualties every time they fought, the number of civilians who died due to wars was definitely more than ten times that of the ninjas, especially in the small countries in the battle zone and the border areas of big countries.

Maybe an inconspicuous puppet can pollute a few kilometers of water sources, maybe the aftermath of a large-scale ninjutsu can cause countless people's homes to be flooded or collapsed.

Compared with other countries, people in the Land of Winds will undoubtedly suffer more, because they often can't even save food for their escape.

Conan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, so he fell silent.

"To be honest, I've been to many places." The old man continued.

"I've never seen any ninja who can think about us civilians like you. Every time they come, they will only cause countless sufferings."

"Only you!" The old man looked up at Conan gratefully.

"Only you are for our real consideration."

Looking up and looking around, the old man continued to shout: "And all the ninja adults who helped us, thank you, thank you very much."

Said the old man bowed again with difficulty.

Following the old man's obeisance, all the civilians in the surrounding Kingdom of Wind also wept and bowed down.

"thanks, thanks"

People’s voices were full of sobs. People who have never experienced famine and pain would not understand how touched these people are at the moment. For them, the river Conan dug is a life-saving river.

The ninjas became more and more silent, and the feelings in their hearts were undoubtedly complicated at this moment.

Many strong ninjas who can grit their teeth and not cry even after losing their most important partners couldn't help moistening their eyes quietly.

"Get up, old man."

Conan gently helped the old man up.

"Believe me, this is just the beginning, and you will have a better life in the future."

Looking at these simple people in front of him, Conan strengthened his determination even more.

I must completely change the world.
