Kurosaki Ichigo in Konoha

Because they were unwilling to participate in the war, the Moon King's royal family was expelled to Mikazuki Island by the Kingdom of Thunder, and the territory was also occupied by the Kingdom of Thunder.Therefore, after Mikazuki Island developed, many people hoped that the royal family could redeem the original territory from the Kingdom of Thunder.After all, it is a land where people have lived for hundreds of years. The sense of security and belonging that can bring them is definitely not something that an island like Mikazuki Island, which is prosperous on the surface but even needs fresh water from the mainland, can provide.

As the new king of Moon Country, Yuesheng naturally has this meaning. However, although he made a lot of money from tourism and gambling before, he has invested all this money in the construction and promotion of Mikazuki Island. Until recently, It took a while for the general plan to be completed, and I had some spare money in hand, and I was preparing to make a request to the Kingdom of Thunder to redeem the territory of the original Moon Kingdom.

Therefore, Yuesheng understood the first half of Kurosaki Ichigo's suggestion very well, but what puzzled him was Kurosaki Ichigo's suggestion later on seeking the status of an absolutely neutral country, so he directly asked, "Absolutely neutral country now?" Don’t rush to seek such a political status. After all, the ninja world is in a period of peace. I think we can wait for about ten years before pursuing the status of an absolutely neutral country."

Kurosaki Ichigo shook his head, "Do you think the ninja world is peaceful now?"

Yuesheng asked doubtfully, "Isn't it right? Now the entire ninja world is developing prosperously. You see, the number of tourists accepted by us and the country of Yu is also increasing year by year. Doesn't this mean that the ninja world will be in a long-term peaceful era?"

"No, you still haven't discovered the essence, Yuesheng." Kurosaki Ichigo rejected Yuesheng's idea mercilessly, "You haven't discovered that most of the dignitaries who come here to gamble are concentrated in the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Thunder. "

"What's so strange about this?" Yue Sheng still didn't understand. "Mariyue Island is located in the eastern sea of ​​the mainland, adjacent to the Land of Fire and the Land of Thunder. There is nothing wrong with more dignitaries and rich people coming here."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked like a child who cannot be taught, which made Yuesheng a little uneasy, "Mikazuki Island's publicity is so strong, even if it is far away, it is impossible for the powerful and wealthy people of the Three Kingdoms to account for such a low proportion, then There is only one reason”

"what reason"

"That is, among these three countries, fewer people can come to Mikazuki Island. Under the oppression of the Country of Fire and the Country of Thunder, the three major countries of wind, earth, and water have fallen into a plight of poverty."

"This is a bit far-fetched," Yuesheng stammered in retort.

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded, "It is indeed far-fetched, but not unreasonable. You should also know that the current Fire Country and Thunder Country have become too powerful in deterrence after forming the Iron Alliance, and many small countries have turned to them. On their side, the Water Country, which has unique resources and is isolated overseas and can be self-sufficient, is okay. The environment is already harsh, and almost most of the land is desert and Gobi. The two countries are losing their customs like the Country of Rivers and the Country of Rain. After the water source becomes important, it will be difficult to maintain the current scale, let alone continue to develop.”

Even after listening to so much of Kurosaki Ichigo's analysis, Yuesheng still didn't quite believe what he said, "However, I heard that the Third Hokage is a very good and gentle person. Under his leadership,"

"It is precisely because Sarutobi Hiruzen is a very gentle person that the current consequences have occurred. I know Konoha and Hokage better than you do, Yue Sheng." Kurosaki Ichigo raised his voice and interrupted Yue Sheng's words.

Seeing Yuesheng stop talking, Kurosaki Ichigo's voice lowered a little, and he didn't sound so excited anymore, "I always thought Senju Tobirama was the most qualified Hokage, do you know why?"

Yuesheng shook his head.

"Because he is a ruthless man."

"Ruthless" Yuesheng was a little puzzled, "Shouldn't this be a flaw?"

"For ordinary people, it is a flaw, but for a leader, it is an advantage. Because he is ruthless, he can be fair and just."

"Fair" Yuesheng tasted Kurosaki Ichigo's words carefully, "Fair"

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded, "Yes. Because of this, he is always able to eliminate any interference when making decisions and make the best choice. That's why Senju Tobirama was able to completely eliminate the obstructive Council of Elders in just two years." , greatly reducing the influence of the family power and strengthening the Hokage's power in the form of an advisory group.

"Under his governance, Konoha has broken the restrictions of family. Whether it is a wealthy family like Senju and Uchiha, a small family like Izumo or Shiranui, or a commoner without a family, they all receive unified education in school. Training and education have cultivated in the new generation the idea that the village is greater than the family

"I can even say unceremoniously that Konoha was truly established during the era of Senju Tobirama, and became a nation that truly included the ninja clan and ordinary people, was united, and had its own glory and beliefs. The country of Konoha before that, I can only say that it was a relatively close-knit ninja alliance."

Kurosaki Ichigo took a breath before talking about the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen again, "So I say that Sarutobi Hiruzen's gentleness will lead to war, because he will mix personal emotions in handling government affairs. With personal emotions, It can't be fair and just

"If you don't want to talk about anything else, let's talk about the roots that have been spreading in the ninja world recently." Kurosaki Ichigo mentioned a very eye-catching thing recently, that is, a part of the dark part of Konoha was separated, and it was led by the Third Hokage. Led by Danzo Shimura, his best friend, a more mysterious department was formed.

It is said that even the Hokage cannot command this root, and all members are only loyal to Danzo Shimura, a hawkish figure. This has aroused the concerns of many people in the ninja world, thinking that Konoha is delegating power to the martial arts faction, which may affect Konoha. Ye followed up with a series of diplomatic attitudes.

However, Kurosaki Ichigo, who had worked under ANBU and Danzo Shimura for several years, disagreed with this: "Do you really think this represents Konoha's tendency to be a hawk with a strong diplomatic attitude? No, this is just the scruples of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura." It's just Danzo's friendship

"Many people can see that Danzo Shimura has been the head of the ANBU for many years, and has already formed a situation where he can't be replaced. If it were Senju Tobirama, he would definitely remove or transfer Shimura Danzo with thunderous means, and then carry out executions on all ANBU members. Examine one by one, detain or brainwash those who fail, and strive to erase all traces of Shimura Danzo in the shortest possible time, and implement the Hokage's will to the end.

"And what did Sarutobi Hiruzen do? Yes, he purged the ANBU, but the purge was not thorough. Moreover, those members who were originally loyal to Shimura Danzo did not divide and brainwash them, but instead Centrally handed over to Shimura Danzo, allowing him to establish a root that was not under his own command

"Haha, it seems that this method has indeed eased the relationship between him and Shimura Danzo, but in fact it is just covering up the contradiction. When the roots are really strong, the Hokage's power will be greatly restricted. At the same time, the internal struggle within the village will become more serious. Konoha, which is caught in internal strife, is nothing more than a paper tiger that looks huge but weak in the face of powerful enemies."

Yuesheng didn't speak, but quietly listened to Kurosaki Ichigo's views on Konoha and the ninja world, with a thoughtful look on his face. It was obvious that he thought of many things from Kurosaki Ichigo's words.

"So I say that Hiruzen Sarutobi's gentleness is more likely to lead to war," Kurosaki Ichigo explained in depth. "Because of his character, he will be shaken, accommodated, and changed by external things, and will eventually be shaken by him. The senior management and the ninja who could not be suppressed were tied to the chariot.

"He himself may tend to be moderate, but the ninja clan, which has been severely weakened after several years of ninja wars, will not control themselves from expanding. On the contrary, they urgently need to plunder a large number of interests that originally belonged to other countries to enrich themselves. Even the Sarutobi clan got involved and grabbed huge amounts of resources from Kawa no Kuni.

“At the same time, the imbalance of economic development has caused Sunagakure and Iwagakure to fall into severe poverty. Seeing Konoha seize a large amount of interests that originally belonged to them, they will feel dissatisfied in their hearts.

"Furthermore, a serious economic crisis will greatly shake the foundation of rule of both parties. Therefore, in order to divert the conflict, I can be sure that the two countries of Wind and Earth will and will definitely incite hatred against the Fire Nation in the country. When the time comes, huh, even if they don't want to fight, Impossible”

"Then when do you think the war will start?" After hearing Kurosaki Ichigo's explanation, Yuesheng no longer refuted, but asked humbly.

Kurosaki Ichigo paused for a moment, and then slowly said his guess, "Recently, on Mikazuki Island, conflicts between guests from the Land of Wind and Earth and the Country of Fire have gradually increased and escalated, and even killed people. This shows that The two countries have begun to incite hatred. So according to my opinion, within three years, another ninja war will come. At that time, if it does not obtain the status of an absolute neutral country, a piece of fat like the Moon Country is doomed. Will be involved in the war, and then be torn into pieces by the big powers that are already eyeing them."

This is not nonsense from Ichigo Kurosaki, but a conclusion he came to after thinking for a long time.In his original world, shortly after the end of a war that engulfed the whole world, the economic crisis caused extreme poverty in the defeated countries, which eventually led to the outbreak of a world war of even greater scale.

Kurosaki Ichigo's country also participated, but played the role of a crazy and brutal invader, and was eventually defeated and punished.It was precisely because he knew this period of history that he was so convinced that the Second Ninja War would break out soon.

After hearing Kurosaki Ichigo's guess, Yuesheng was horrified. Although he accepted the idea that the Ninja World War would break out soon, he believed that it would take at least five years before the second Ninja World War happened. During the battle, I didn't expect that Kurosaki Ichigo's answer would be more radical.

However, after thinking about Kurosaki Ichigo's evidence, Yuesheng could not help but agree with his idea, so he immediately stood up, "I know Kurosaki-kun, and I will give priority to obtaining the status of an absolute neutral country." Speaking of which, please excuse me now to deal with these matters."

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded and watched Yuesheng leave in a hurry. He lay there for a while before getting up and continuing to practice.
