Hokage: This Naruto is super ambitious

Chapter 128 Occasionally look at your feet

Look at Jiraiya's confused eyes.

Naruto asked: "You were once a genin, and you should have received D-level missions. Why don't you know these basics?"

"This is just a ninja's experience before actually carrying out dangerous missions."

Jiraiya felt a little embarrassed. He was originally here to inspect people, but instead he was inspected.

In response, Naruto shook his head slightly: "No, this is not only the so-called experience, but also an attempt at peace since the establishment of Konoha Ninja Village."

"An attempt at peace?"

I don't understand.

while they are talking.

A farmer appeared in the distance, seemingly trying to drive away the new stranger. However, after Naruto waved to him, the man happily greeted Naruto and asked him to be careful not to step on the newly sown seedlings. Just leave with peace of mind.

He can be said to be a Konoha person, or a person from a neighboring village. In the eyes of people from other countries, people from the Fire Country can be considered Konoha people, even if the main buildings and covered areas where Konoha's families and civilians gather are The site area is not large.

But once the armed force of Konoha really starts to move, no one in the entire Fire Country can stop this armed force group.

This is also the reason why other great ninja villages regard Konoha as the entire Fire Nation.

No matter how much you pretend to be poor and happy, the actual military power is there and cannot be ignored.

After greeting the local fellows, Naruto looked at Jiraiya again and said: "Legendary figures like the Sannin think about grand narratives such as large-scale military wars and family and national affairs. For D-class The task may have been ignored and ignored very early!

"But if Jiraiya-senpai is patient, I still hope that you can re-understand the content of D-level missions, and occasionally look at your feet and these fields. These are the real cornerstones of the entire country's operation."

"Occasionally take a look at your feet..."

Jiraiya was not very lucky about this. He traveled all over the ninja world and was used to the suffering of war, so he wanted to find a peaceful future.

He performed many S-level missions, A-level missions, etc., experienced hundreds of battles, and eliminated many evil ninjas.

He understood the current prophecy of the giant toad, gave up his treatment as a top ninja, and gave up his position as Hokage, wandering around the ninja world, existing as a hero, and living a chivalrous and righteous life under the surface, he is a relentless exploration of the road to peace.

What does the kid in front of him know about what he has done?

But after reflecting on some of the details in the other person's words, Jiraiya discovered that such a grand narrative-like thing, even if he had actually done it, seemed to be playing into the other person's hands at this time.

More like a big talker!

When Jiraiya was thinking about how to regain the initiative.

Naruto jumped off the earth wall, landed on the ground, and explained: "The process of opening up wasteland is not complicated, especially in the Land of Fire, which is rich in products.

“But the food we need requires far less environment than these weeds. They are deeply rooted in the ground, soil, rocks and other places, competing for the nutrients needed for food growth.

"If we don't deal with these weeds, bushes, etc., humans will have to learn from some special animals and eat herbivores.

"And simply trying to deal with these weeds, pulling them out is of no use. Even for a growing teenager with unlimited energy, the speed of pulling weeds cannot keep up with the growth speed of weeds, not to mention that many grasses are either tough or rooted in hard dry soil. "

While explaining this point, Naruto immediately chose a piece of grass, reached out and gently pulled out, and immediately pulled out a large piece of soil with some rocks on it, and many intricate root systems were directly disconnected.

"With the support of sufficiently precise chakra control, the power I exerted just now is many times greater than that of an ordinary person. But what should an ordinary person do if he does not have the extraordinary ability of a ninja?"

Jiraiya originally thought that Naruto wanted to prove that pulling weeds was not that difficult, but considering the force and unique chakra control that Naruto had just used to pull weeds, it was indeed impossible for ordinary people to do it.

He frowned and said doubtfully: "I have never understood how difficult it is for the civilians of the Fire Country to open up wasteland before, but if every piece of land is so difficult to cultivate, how can the Fire Country come up with so much land?"

"So after the continuous wars, the land was deserted, and many farmers' lives were much more difficult than before. The most basic core economy of the entire Fire Country was declining. Senior Jiraiya has been on missions for many years, shouldn't he have discovered it earlier? ?”

Naruto said matter-of-factly.

This made Jiraiya silent.

He really doesn't care much about these things. After all, since the source lies in the war, he has been pursuing his destiny and working hard for half his life. He also writes books from time to time. It would be good to learn more in his spare time.

Agriculture, the primary industry, is obviously not something that people like him who have saved nine figures need to consider.

He spent more and more money drinking and drinking over the years.

Only a gambler like Tsunade who always loses every bet can become a dignified Sannin and run away in debt.

"If there are ready-made fertile fields that can be used, no one would want to cultivate wasteland. Weeds are just the first obstacle!" Naruto said quietly, "Corresponding to the weeds, there is also the hard land that cannot be used directly. And the accompanying sand, gravel and debris that need to be removed.

"Especially the villages sheltered by the Konoha Ninja Village. Because Konoha is located in the mountains, the geographical location of many villages is not much better. Every piece of fertile land was just wasteland at first, and they have to go through such a round of setbacks.

"Renovate the land, burn the weeds, and clear away the garbage. Even if it becomes fertile land, you cannot stop these operations. Fortunately, the rain in the Fire Country is not as rare as in the Wind Country, so if you survive for ten or eight years, you can still get a fertile farmland. .”

"Ten years or eight years! How many ten years can a person have in his life?"

Even Jiraiya, who chose to run away for half his life for a prophecy, felt that this timeline was long.

"There is no way around it. The Country of Fire has abandoned some of its fields, and the remaining good ones are all owned by people. Of course, this is another matter. In short, the situation is that there is nothing you can do if you don't do it. You can't keep eating wild vegetables!"

Naruto spread his hands, and after telling Jiraiya about the farmers' difficulties, he continued, "The power of the ninja itself can shorten this process to a great extent, and the power of the ninja is not only Restricted to this.

"Regarding the restoration of the most basic industries of the Fire Country, no matter which link it is, the extraordinary power of the ninja can directly speed up its progress. This will help everyone at the bottom of the Fire Country survive and liberate part of their bodies. .

"Of course, the above is my current attempt. Traditional ninjas don't do that, so the traditional bottom farmers of the Land of Fire have nothing to rely on.

"As the lowest level of existence, a large number of people were forced to live in the fields throughout their lives. During the period when commerce was developed, another group of people flowed into cities and towns and became screws at the bottom level. They did the most repetitive and arduous work. It supports the operation of the entire Fire Nation system, but it is almost impossible to enjoy all the benefits of this system.

“Every link is asking, so this lowest part can only give.

“Even the high remuneration for ninjas, in the final analysis, comes from the blood and sweat of the people at the lowest level in the Land of Fire.

“However, ordinary people have limits after all, and there can be no endless risks.

“It is difficult to open up wasteland, farm prices are low, good land is owned, and demands are excessive. When accumulation reaches a certain level, the bottom string will naturally collapse.

"The collapse of order was foreshadowed from the moment it was born, and it was only revealed when the war broke out!

"The most basic and important production link has been destroyed. There is something wrong with the entire Fire Nation system. The emergence of conflicts is natural. War is just a superficial appearance. Without war, many people would die——"

"Is war just a facade?"

Jiraiya was a little confused. He always felt that Naruto had skipped a lot of things before. At the same time, he said: "You may have never experienced war. In fact, war itself is a very cruel thing..."

In this regard.

Naruto replied faintly: "I am not denying the cruelty of war, I just want to say that people can not only be killed, but also starve to death.

"Of course, this situation is less common in the Fire Country now. The partial recovery of production makes famine seem like an extremely distant memory.

“But I still want to say that if people don’t eat, they will starve to death.

"Since Jiraiya-senpai understands the difficulty of opening up wasteland, you should also be aware of one thing, and that is the destruction of production by the ninjas themselves, and the... burden of production."

"burden?"

Jiraiya stopped questioning and thought about Naruto's words.

Then there were a lot of things he didn't agree with.

But when he really walked with Naruto to the place where the lower class people lived, he no longer used the mission logic of ninjas and the perspective of looking for prophecies, but he still felt some power of the other party's language.

Naruto didn't want to talk anymore at this time.

He waved his hand and said: "The burden that traditional ninjas place on ordinary people can be discussed later. In fact, I think the previous words are enough.

"According to the ninja's insight, how could Senior Jiraiya not have seen those things? What's surprising now is that I'm afraid he never took those things to heart. After all, you are a hero wandering the world, and they are just trapped in the fields. Untouchable.

"As for me saying that what I do is related to peace, I have my reasons.

"It's not better to starve to death than to be killed, is it?"
