Konoha: At the beginning of the six library immortal thief, apprentice Orochimaru

"We still need to retain personnel, is it so troublesome?" Hoshino Kaze squatted on a big rock and complained to Bai Jue.

Loquat Juuzang said: "After annexing a country, the most valuable things are land and population. If these two things are gone, then what is the point of eating that country?"

"Oh, of course I know that. Just destroying their economy without letting too many people die?" Hoshino Kaze felt a pity that he couldn't wipe out the ground with artillery fire like Deidara.

"It just takes some time, as long as it doesn't cause too much damage to the labor force." Bai Jue said, "Okay, let's set off!"

It just so happened that the other country held a Big Eater Competition today. It was at this time that ordinary people could freely enter and exit the royal city.

The reason for this competition was because their young master, the daimyo's son, didn't eat well, so the daimyo thought of using this method to increase his appetite.

The counselors around him gave him an idea, saying that he should try to let the young master watch these people eat, and see how those people wolfed down their appetites, and maybe there would be some changes.

When the Daimyo heard this, he thought it made sense, not to mention that he probably didn't have to spend any money to organize the competition. He found a few shops selling pastries and food, and then told them that the Daimyo planned to hold a nationwide competition in the name of his country. Big Eater Competition.

It is said that we need several delicious and representative foods to be put on stage as food during the competition.

By then, people in most of the country will see that the players on the court eat their food so well. It will be a perfect advertisement. It is impossible for them not to cherish such a good publicity opportunity.

This time the daimyo not only solved the food problem during the competition, but also collected a wave of sponsorship fees. The most important thing was to have some fun and solve his son's appetite problem. It was like killing three birds with one stone.

Hoshino Kaze and the others also took advantage of this opportunity to enter the other country in a grand manner. Taking advantage of the period of their opening up, through this period of research, they found out clearly the economic pillar industries of the other country and the signs of spiritual sustenance. Sexual buildings, as well as the residences of dignitaries.

"The Big Stomach King Competition, Ah Feng, are you going?"

"Hey, a group of mortals, how can we join in the fun with them." Hoshino Feng held a leftover stick in his mouth, wearing blue and black coarse cloth clothes, with his hair tied back, and a knife at his waist. Rather like a wandering warrior.

"Assassinate the Daimyo by the way."

Hoshino Kaze spat out the stick in his mouth and said, "Why do you need a chance to kill him?"

"Try to be as hidden as possible. It's not convenient to do this kind of thing too much." Loquat Juuzang was still conservative and cautious.

Previously, because of Hoshino Kaze's Wood Release, the two of them became the target of public criticism, which made him very annoyed. If the ninja world knew that Akatsuki was such a dangerous organization, there would be more pursuits and defenses in the future. .

"Juzou is right. At present, our organization still needs to keep a low profile." Bai Zetsu, who transformed into an ordinary person next to him, also said.

"Okay, then are you going to destroy other economic zones?" Hoshino Kaze asked. He had doubts about whether Loquat Juzo could destroy all the places by himself. "Do you need my Gunpowder Crow?"

"If you are willing to lend it, that would be even better."

Then in a secluded place, Hoshino Kaze called out the crow and asked him to stand on Loquat Juuzang's shoulders, and they separated.

Hoshino Kaze went to participate in the competition and took the opportunity to assassinate the daimyo in the audience. It would be best to take his advisers with him, leaving only his young son for easy control.

Loquat Juzo scattered explosive feathers in the explored industrial centers, such as the famous paper mills, weaving workshops, and handicraft stores here.

Anyway, it's not an ordinary detonating talisman, it's just a few feathers, no one will care about it, and the worst case scenario is that Bai Jue will be buried underground.

When Hoshino Kaze's operation to assassinate the daimyo began, he also started to kill those officials who had not been infiltrated by the Earth Kingdom.

"Oh, is this some kind of imperial contest?" Hoshino Kaze muttered to himself as he stood at the registration desk and looked at the field inside.

"Hey, is this samurai brother participating in our royal meal competition?" the receptionist greeted someone when he saw someone coming to the registration point.

"Ah, that's right. Is there a registration fee or something, and when does it start?"

"There are still two hours left, little brother, register here, pay the registration fee of 1000 taels, and enter the internal venue to wait for the qualifying competition to begin. The top three will receive generous rewards."

Maybe the person in charge of registration saw Hoshino Kaze's samurai attire, so he was very respectful to him.

"Is that so?" Hoshino Kaze took out a 1000 tael banknote and then casually made up a false name.

"Oh! Mr. Yuyue, please!" The receptionist made a greeting gesture to Hoshino Feng.

Hoshino Feng walked into it, "Haha, this courtyard is pretty good. Although it is a simple royal city, it is much better than an ordinary courtyard."

He looked around the entire competition venue and carefully looked at the VIP seats one by one. The daimyo and his son had not arrived yet.

There are only some staff laying out cakes and tea, and people who look like nobles and ministers are sitting there. They can't come later than the daimyo, right?

Of course, there were a lot of guards, most of them were ordinary people. They didn't have any chakra reaction in their bodies. Judging from their bodies, they should be just mortals who had undergone ordinary training and were equipped with weapons, but they were not allowed to stand too close to the daimyo's seat.

Hoshino Kaze sat on his seat. During this period, he kept launching flying mosquitoes to carry poisonous insects to the assassination targets, waiting for the daimyo to come and give him a bite. Of course, this would have to wait until Hoshino Kaze left after the game was over.

The poisonous insect this time has a different effect than the last time to prevent it from being contacted by others.

Last time it was heart paralysis, this time it was a rupture of blood vessels in the brain. Of course, the control may not be so precise, and blood vessels in other places may also rupture, but it doesn't matter, just die anyway.

Two hours later, the competition officially started. A man with a mustache and glasses came out to preside over: "Welcome everyone to participate in our first imperial meal contest! The winner will receive honors and rewards from adults. Please show your best in your daily life." The strength, style and level of eating, the first qualifying match, a steamed bun showdown!"

"Steamed buns?" Hoshino Feng said, looking at a large plate of sugar buns in front of him, "You call buns steamed buns here?"

As for the host, he didn't hear Hoshino Kaze's words now, and then came the advertisement part: "The steamed buns used in this competition are provided by Tiantianan, a famous store in the castle town. Special thanks!"

"Oh my god, this famous person is so financially savvy!" Hoshino Feng didn't expect that there would be such a sleeping dragon in this small world, and he would hold a competition, entertain the people and make money?

At this time, the daimyo, his son and personal guards also arrived at the center seat with the best view, and Shi Shiran sat down.

Hoshino Kaze's attention was also attracted. He grabbed the steamed bun and bit it. He ate at a decent speed. Anyway, as long as he finished the plate within the specified time, he could enter the next round of the competition.

As long as he wins the championship, a big name will personally award him the award. Then his bodyguards can't follow him closely, right?

"The daimyo is different. His guard has blood and chakra in his body. He looks like a samurai in his attire." Hoshino Kaze thought to himself, "Is he from the Kingdom of Iron? I didn't expect them to do this. Export business."

"Huh?" The Daimyo's guard noticed that Hoshino Kaze's eyes were always looking at the Daimyo, and they realized something was wrong.

"Oh? Sora, what's wrong?" the daimyo heard his voice and asked.

"The guy in black clothes below always looks at you, and there's something strange about that guy. He's obviously a samurai, but I can't feel any breath from him, whether it's blood or anything." Sora replied.

It's no wonder that he can't feel it. The Immortal Thief Liuku can eliminate all smells and breaths on his body. Even if Hoshino Kaze kills someone, there will be no blood left on his body in the traditional sense.

The daimyo didn't care much, "It may be normal to have no blood. Looking at his age, he may be just a young apprentice. Who can a samurai kill at such a young age? As for always looking at me, as a daimyo , my people don’t have anything to look at me.”

After all, the guards here are only for emergencies. There is also the daimyo's private army outside. It is more appropriate to call him the imperial army. He is just a samurai. Even if he breaks out, can he deal with so many people?

In fact, for regular ninjas, the army is still an insurmountable mountain. Otherwise, Sasuke's record of being able to face hundreds of people without getting hurt during the Orochimaru era would not have made Guren so afraid.

But it's a pity that the daimyo made a wrong assessment. Hoshino Kaze is not one of those ordinary ninjas. This time the daimyo may have to pay with his life for his wrong decision.

After a while, the host announced, "Okay everyone, that's it!" Then with a wave of his hand, he began to eliminate the contestants: "Those who haven't finished eating will leave quickly!"

"Let's move on to the second round of the ramen competition. This ramen will be provided by the famous Ayuutei restaurant in Castle Town!"

"This big bowl of ramen has a lot of oil." Hoshino Feng saw that the big bowl of ramen was full of oil. It was as good as the name of the store.

"Suck it!"

Everyone also used their chopsticks. This is more convenient in the ninja world. You can use chopsticks for everything, so you don't need to learn new tableware.

This time Hoshino Kaze sped up slightly and finished fifth in line, finishing all the ramen.

The daimyo on the throne watched them wolfing down their food, and his appetite aroused, but he first asked his son next to him, "Xiu, how are you? Is there anything you want to eat?"

"Ah, people nearby, I'm quite interested in that ramen." The young master of Bizhiguo asked his servant to bring him a bowl of ramen.

The daimyo specifically told the servant who was taking the meal: "Remember to keep it light and not have so much oil."

He is such a loving father and a benevolent name. What a pity. In such troubled times, his benevolence cannot stop the ambition of a big country to annex his country.

Among the hundreds of schools of thought, in the final war, Legalism dominated the world, and in the long-term peace, it evolved into Confucianism and Legalism. As for the Mohist school, which loves people and the people, his universal love and non-aggression disappeared in the vast years. There is no room for survival in the long river.

It seems that the ninja world is also following this path. The third generation who does not want to cause more wars has caused Konoha to decline day by day. The fifth generation is even more indecisive and lacks sufficient decision-making power. The Fire Nation is the boss of the ninja world in name, but in reality, even the horse belt All three of them almost destroyed Konoha.

Only the thick black Earth Kingdom and the Thunder Kingdom, which aggressively expanded and prepared its army, became the most powerful countries.

As for this benevolent and peaceful small country, it will be annexed sooner or later. Even if there is no Hoshino Wind coming today, the other country that is coveted by the Earth Country will be cannibalized sooner or later.

Of course, war is not a cause, but a consequence. In the ninja world, it is essentially because a piece of land cannot carry enough population or there are too many bad factors accumulated, and it must be exported or confronted with another country. Consumption, as an alternative surgery, removes those unfavorable things.

For example, in debt crises, economic bubbles, food crises, etc., there are either fewer people or sufficient resources.

This has nothing to do with how many countries there are in the ninja world, nor is it a war that people cannot understand, or a war caused by people's constant accumulation of hatred.

Even if Nagato wants to intimidate the entire ninja world with enough pain, the constant suffering caused by the "entropy increase" of the closed system of the ninja world will one day cause people to be unable to tolerate this situation and start to be cruel. of fighting.

For example, the gap between the rich and the poor is too large, the flow of wealth is seriously insufficient, and the entire society is like a pool of stagnant water. Ordinary people or ordinary ninjas live a cyberpunk-like life. How can they endure this?

Therefore, Hoshino Kaze does not intend to bring any permanent peace to the ninja world at all, nor does he intend to unify the world and end the troubled times.

The difference between the current situation and the unification of the five major countries is nothing more than the difference between a series of small forest fires burning the combustible materials accumulated in the mountains and leaves, and the long-term accumulation of dead branches and leaves that erupts into huge wildfires under accidental sparks.

There will still be wars when they should be fought, whether they are a series of small and medium-sized wars or a large-scale war that overturns the entire ninja world.

And the most important thing is that if the ninja world is unified and peaceful under pressure, then the entire ninja world will have only one thought, for example, Danzo's approach of training all ninjas into tools. Anyway, it is to suppress Inhabited by everyone.

It is even less likely that Hatake Sakumo or later Kakashi would have the idea that companions are more important than rules.

Danzo: "Now you dare to put your companions, relatives and friends above the rules. I can't even think of what you are going to do in the future!"

Not to mention Orochimaru is a rebellious person who is only loyal to himself and devotes himself to researching forbidden technologies and exploring other organizational methods. By then, he will not even be able to leave any living space in the cracks between countries.

Maybe by then, only nobles will be allowed to practice ninjutsu, and the flow of chakra among civilians will be absolutely prohibited, so that the power of chakra will be completely monopolized by high-level officials.

Reach the true ninja world cyberpunk.

Don't doubt the power of time. The way of man is to make up for the loss. Under the influence of long-term time, the accumulated advantages will be magnified step by step, and eventually it will be greatly differentiated. At that time, it will either explode and reopen, or turn into a pool of stagnant water.

Therefore, in Hoshino Kaze's view, it would be best for the ninja world to maintain its status quo, unless interstellar colonization in the future can export negative factors to the outside world.

In fact, compared to Nagato, Hoshino Kaze supports Infinite Tsukuyomi more, at least it can make people achieve permanent happiness and bring permanent peace to the ninja world.

It would be perfect if this technique didn't turn people into White Zetsu.

Unfortunately, that was just Kaguya's trap.
