In Naruto, Building the Strongest Hidden Mist Village

Thirty-three.

Nagato silently raised his long knife and wiped the blood. His eyes were a little dull, and he was not happy that he had solved another guy who dared to provoke.

The Country of Grass, the Country of Taki, and the Country of Fields all look the same, not much better than the Country of Rain.

The same chaos, full of killing, full of blood.

The only advantage is that the weather is still sunny.

It's all the same, no difference.

The water country we are going to is even worse.

I heard that the weather there is not only similar to the Rain Country, but even worse.

According to rumors, the land there is much more chaotic than here.

If it hadn't been for Shu-senpai saying that there was a possibility to cure Yahiko's leg, he wouldn't have gone to such a boring land.

"Nagato."

Xiaonan waved her hand and pointed behind the mountains.

"Nagato, behind the mountains is the Kingdom of Iron!"

"That country, I heard, has no ninjas and no wars. It is a peaceful and peaceful land."

"I got it, Xiaonan."

Nagato tried his best to raise the corners of his mouth, guessing that Konan might have noticed something strange about him, and secretly warned himself not to have a similar expression again.

We can't let everyone worry.

"Everyone, let's go see the Kingdom of Iron together!"

"Let's go and see what kind of happy life we ​​live in a country without war."

Konan was not only worried about Nagato, but also concerned about the ninjas of the Akatsuki organization. She compared her hands to the shape of a trumpet and encouraged them loudly.

Forced to leave their hometown due to threats to their lives, it is difficult for everyone even with the support of faith.

not to mention.

The Shu-senpai who were previously regarded as the most reliable by members of the Akatsuki organization have already left first and went to the Kingdom of Water to prepare to take over the territory of Akatsuki organization members.

Now that people's hearts are wandering, and Nagato is not good at these things, it's time for me to work hard!

Konan clenched her fists, fed Yahiko some more water, walked to the head of the team, and continued to encourage people.

——

"It seems that everything is the same, this world..."

Walking on the road of the iron country market town, Nagato's eyes were a little confused.

This Iron Kingdom, which was rumored to be like a fairy tale, really disappointed him.

It is said that they do not accept the power of ninjas and do not exploit the power of ninjas, but the samurai who replaced the ninjas did even worse in this regard.

In this country that is covered with heavy snow all year round, warriors who snatch the last piece of firewood from civilians can be seen everywhere.

The fate of civilians is predictable.

Nagato wanted to take action and teach these samurai a lesson.

Senior Keshu is not here.

If some unmanageable force is provoked here and the Akatsuki organization is put in danger again, how should Nagato be responsible?

"Stop!"

Nagato looked towards the front of the car, where a dozen samurai were gathered, surrounding Konan.

His heart tightened and he was about to step forward. At this moment, Xiaonan seemed to have a telepathic connection, turning her head and making eye contact.

Nagato could read it, which meant, don't come over.

His lavender pupils were firmly locked on the group of samurai. He felt relieved when he saw Konan take out a wad of bills from his pocket and the samurai turned around and left.

It's just another group of guys blocking the road.

There is no difference between those ninjas from the Country of Grass and the Country of Taki.

"Can you give me something to eat?"

Seemingly seeing the sign of an out-of-town businessman, a child of three or four years old ran over with bare feet.

"Of course."

Looking at this child, he seemed to see himself when he was a child, and his heart ached.

Nagato covered his purple pupils with his long hair, groped around his body for a while, and took out a lot of bread.

"Go and eat."

The child first filled a bag, hesitated for a few seconds, and then returned most of it to Nagato.

Nagato naturally did not need to ask why the child wanted to be returned. With his rich experience in orphan survival, he could naturally understand why the child did this.

But.

There are probably too many such children.

Where the Samsara Eye is shrouded, green eyes from all directions are looking towards this place.

Behind these children are adults wearing shabby cotton robes. Nagato could see the traces of time imprinted on those dark faces, making them look old and tired.

Looking further into the distance, there are simple houses built of mud and firewood. In this world of ice and snow, it would be difficult for those houses to keep warm.

As for other daily necessities, there is no need to think about them at all.

For those people, living is already the greatest luxury.

What else should we pursue?

What went wrong with this neutral, war-free country?

Nagato was thinking in his heart as he distributed the bread to the children.

This is something he has been doing these days.

After encountering the setback of Waterloo, Nagato began to think seriously.

He wanted to find a solution.

At this time, a flash of light flashed through his mind, and Nagato seemed to have grasped an opportunity.

Is it a problem for those in power?

The Country of Rain, located in the land of four wars, has always been regarded as a battlefield by the major ninja villages. The culprits are the major powers and their shadows!

The same is true in the Country of Grass.

Although the country of Taki has relatively strong power, their ninja village is extremely chaotic, and ninjas have no trust in each other at all.

As a result, it was a country in great chaos.

What about the Iron Kingdom?

Why is this country that is covered in snow all year round, has no ninja power, is permanently neutral, and never participates in war, so poor?

Nagato was still very immature and couldn't find the answer.

Even the teachers and Shu-senpai who could help him solve the problem were not around.

Leave it to ask later.

The most important thing now is to go to the Kingdom of Water.

Can that place, whose reputation is much worse than that of other countries, really become the dream peach garden?

This cannot go on.

While Konan was watching everything in the Kingdom of Iron vigilantly, he was also very aware of the psychological changes of the members of the Akatsuki organization behind him.

The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

They originally thought that a country like the Iron Country, which had never had a war, would be a new sight for them, but they didn't expect it to be like this.

This is the most direct attack on the philosophy of the Akatsuki organization.

Their pursuit of a peaceful future looks so pale.

Maybe it will fall apart.

Konan looked at Yahiko on the stretcher, feeling very bitter in her heart.

Yahiko, you will be fine if you stand up.

I will try my best to prevent my companions from being injured or completely losing faith in the chaotic and bloody place of the Water Kingdom.

Yahiko, please rest assured.

I will definitely bring Akatsuki Organization to you in its entirety.

——

"The Kingdom of Water is coming."

Boarding the ship to the Kingdom of Water, Konan and Nagato walked side by side.

Looking at the taciturn Nagato, Konan felt a little distressed.

In the past, Nagato's silence was just out of character.

Today, his silence should also be due to doubts about his ideas.

Even she herself had sincere doubts about the path she was following.

Now that I'm like this, how can I comfort Nagato.

Xiaonan felt helpless and decided to tell everything. Nagato was not such a fragile person.

"Nagato, you said that even countries like the Land of Iron have not achieved true happiness. Where should we, the Land of Rain, go from here?"

"I have no idea."

Nagato looked a little pained.

"This time, I feel like everything we thought was wrong and we never really understood the world."

"yes."

Xiao Nan sighed sincerely.

"I also feel that what we insisted on before may be really naive."

"so."

"We need to find the answer to the problem as soon as possible. When Yahiko heals his leg, we must work hard to solve the world's problems."

"Xonan."

Nagato suddenly became excited.

"I seem to understand."

"Understand what?"

There was a hint of doubt in Xiaonan's eyes. Nagato, who had never had any opinion, had changed his temper this time.

"The truth about poverty in the Iron Kingdom!"

"What?"

"They are located deep in the mountains, covered by heavy snow all year round. There are almost no businessmen passing by, and there is no other income."

"At the same time, many warriors must be trained to prepare against possible attacks from big powers!"

"Then, in order to feed these warriors, the Iron Kingdom must drain the last drop of blood from the people there."

Xiaonan suddenly realized.

And Nagato was impassioned.

"so."

"Actually, there is only one root cause of the problem, and that is war!"

"As long as we ensure that no war will break out in this world, the Iron Kingdom will not need so many warriors and will be able to obtain more money."

"As long as we find a way to keep the whole world peaceful, everyone can usher in true happiness!"

Xiaonan clapped her hands in admiration, and her eyes showed a hint of excitement at the right time.

"I didn't expect you to grow to this point, Nagato. If everyone continues to make progress like this, our Akatsuki organization will definitely realize our dreams!"

Nagato smiled, hiding the last words deep in his heart.

After witnessing Yahiko's tragic situation, he had a way to keep peace in the entire world.

That is.

Let all big countries that dare to start war feel the pain!

As long as everyone feels the pain they felt when they saw Yahiko's legs broken off and Akatsuki's companions dying tragically one after another, no one will want to start a war again!

but.

This method is too extreme, and Xiaonan, teacher, and Shu-senpai would probably not agree.

Nagato sighed, but in his heart he hoped to find a better solution.

Because if you want to make the whole world feel pain.

Friends, we will inevitably reach a desperate situation.

"Everyone, welcome to the Kingdom of Water!"

The boatman who was ferrying the ship fiddled with the gears and shouted proudly at the same time, causing all the ninjas who were still drowsy before or who had been resting on the deck to stand up and cast their gaze towards the white mist that obscured their vision. .

Just at this time,

The fog gradually dispersed, and the sun rose in the east.

The golden sunshine shines on the busy sea, making the waves sparkle. There is an endless stream of fishing boats and cargo ships at the harbor, their sails are like clouds, seagulls are flying on the bows, and the sea breeze blows, bringing with it the fishy and salty smell.

Looking at everything in front of them and smelling the scent in the air, Nagato and Konan gradually widened their eyes.

The same is true for the members of the Akatsuki organization behind them.

He grew up in a war-torn country with only ruins and ruins. The several countries he traveled through were no different from the Country of Rain.

Where have they ever seen such a scene!

"Xonan."

Nagato swallowed.

"Tell me, are all the big countries in Konoha like this?"

As if he had found a reason for himself, Nagato continued to talk.

"That's how it should be."

"Konoha probably won't lose to him, and neither will other big countries."

"Nagato."

Xiao Nan interrupted loudly.

"Let's go take a look."

"See it with your own eyes."

Nagato closed his mouth, looked at the waves of the sea and the approaching port, and nodded slowly.

"Let's go take a look."

"Go and see what kind of country the Water Country is!"

When the ship docked, the Akatsuki organization still dressed themselves up as merchants, but their eyes couldn't stop looking around.

The large wharf here, or what can be called a port, is full of goods everywhere. Porters are coming in an endless stream, carrying and walking, with beads of sweat on their faces and a large area on their backs.

but.

Nagato looked at it carefully, it didn't look like he was faking it.

They seemed to be laughing.

Are they laughing?

"Fish, a specialty of the Kingdom of Water!"

"Come and buy, come and buy."

As soon as he walked into the port center, shouts came one after another, making Nagato couldn't help but look away.

Even more shocked.

Can anything still be sold here?

This scene, probably, enjoy it.

Nagato finally found an adjective, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

It seems really different.

It's really different from other countries.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way."

The rough voice cheered up Nagato, and seeing Kirigakure protecting his forehead made him even more energetic.

Let's get started.

Ninjas oppressing civilians, this is a familiar scene.

etc.

What is he doing?

Nagato watched helplessly as the ninja walked to a damaged road, slowly formed seals with his hands, and spurted a stream of earth from his mouth. After filling it up, he nodded with satisfaction.

Then he walked to the snack bar next to him and started eating casually.

Is this a ninja?

Is this still a ninja?

Aren't ninjas supposed to be those who shed blood and die for the benefit of a great country on the battlefield?

Why did the road start to be built instead?

Nagato felt like he was filled with doubts.

At this moment, Lang Lang's voice sounded from a courtyard.

Nagato looked curiously and saw dozens of children studying there inside the open door.

Although many are making trouble, many are not serious, and many do not know what they are doing and just follow in confusion.

But they are really learning and don't have to worry about making a living.

It's so warm.

Nagato felt tears welling up in his eyes.

Isn't this kind of life what they dream of?

"Nagato."

Konan gently clenched Nagato's sleeves.

"Nagato."

"Perhaps we can find the answer in the Kingdom of Water?"

Nagato nodded firmly.

"Yes, Xiaonan."

"We may really be able to find the answer in the Kingdom of Water!"

"Then, let's work hard together."

Xiaonan's eyes were determined.

Behind her, the members of the Akatsuki organization who had shaken their faith and suffered in their hearts also showed resolute faces.

In order for the Country of Rain to have such a life, in order for the whole world to have such a life!

They want to keep at it!
