Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja

Yeshan had vaguely guessed that the Fire Country Daimyo was secretly trying to weaken Konoha Village, but he didn't take it seriously. The current post-war construction of Konoha Village needed the support of the Daimyo, and Sarutobi Hiruzen was unlikely to have the intention to kill the Daimyo at this critical moment. At most, he would give him a warning, which would not hurt him much.

Although Konoha Village has its own businesses, most of them are controlled by civilians and ninja families. The annual tax revenue is pitifully small. The funds earned by ninjas from performing missions are not enough for post-war pensions alone, not to mention the establishment of a complete medical system. The money needed is calculated in billions, and it is completely inseparable from the support of the daimyo.

After the Wind Country and the Fire Country signed a treaty, the Hidden Mist Village, which lost four ninja swordsmen and the Three-Tails, also announced a ceasefire. At this point, the large-scale war in the ninja world was basically over. Although the remaining small-scale battles continued, the Second Ninja World War was definitely over.

The Second Ninja World War lasted for decades and spanned Yeshan's teenage years, from his graduation from the Ninja School to his early adulthood. He was promoted from a small Genin to a Jonin, successfully survived and became famous among the civilian ninja community. But Yeshan never felt that he gained more than he lost in the Ninja World War. At least, he was the only one among his classmates who survived until the end of the war.

The same is true for Konoha. The pain brought to the village by the war will take time to heal. The dead will become the objects of remembrance, while the living have to actively prepare for the next war that may break out at any time. It has to be said that this is a great irony.

From the beginning to the end, the war brought Ye Shan only unspeakable pain, without a trace of pleasure. He now just wanted to return to the village to have a good rest for a while, adjust his mentality, and carefully plan his future.

But things always go against one's wishes. Yeshan was transferred from the Minato team that returned to the village to rest, and stayed to stand guard at the border of the Fire Country. The reason given by the command was very reasonable. The war had just ended, and the border needed strong senior ninjas to be stationed to guard against emergencies.

A few days later, the Konohagakure returned to the village under the leadership of Sarutobi Hiruzen, leaving about 300 ninjas stationed there, and Hayama was one of them. As one of the jonins left behind, Hayama had the right to make some demands, so he asked the headquarters to transfer Yamashiro Tatsuichi as well. He thought there would be some twists and turns, but he didn't expect the headquarters to agree to his demands on the spot...

So, two years later, Ye Shan formed a team with Yamashiro Tatsuya again. It must be said that Ye Shan trusted Yamashiro Tatsuya very much, but he felt a little guilty for interrupting his plan to return to the village.

After the ninja army withdrew, the camp became empty. Ye Shan unceremoniously occupied an unusually spacious tent and waited for Yamashiro Chen's arrival.

The sky gradually darkened, and the peculiar boredom of summer disappeared with the setting sun, replaced by the refreshing evening breeze and the chirping of insects. Ye Shan leaned outside the tent, his hands clasped on his chest, quietly looking at the stars in the sky, his mood rarely relaxed, thinking about the ordinary life in his previous life.

"It's time to get off work at this time."

A smile appeared on Ye Shan's lips. In his previous life, he was a young man who lived a life of idleness and waited for death. What he loved most was to call three or five friends after get off work, go to a lively barbecue stall, order some skewers, a plate of cucumbers, and most importantly, a bucket of draft beer, and vent the depression in his heart. The cool girls who passed by from time to time, international disputes, the exciting moments of games, and even bragging about slacking skills were all the topics that Ye Shan and his friends talked about most.

However, in the world of Naruto, Ye Shan had to bid farewell to the leisurely life of his previous life and took up arms to fight. The ordinary person's thinking in his bones made him yearn for a comfortable life. He was unwilling to participate in the battle, nor was he willing to be involved in the vortex of power games. He just wanted to live a simple life.

Now that the war is over, Ye Shan plans to go back to the village and use the mission money he has saved over the years to renovate the old house. The Japanese style inside the house will be completely replaced with Chinese style. The land in the yard cannot be wasted, so he can grow vegetables. He can also raise a cat and a dog so that he can relax after his daily practice.

Thinking of this, Ye Shan couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his bald head, and his mood became better. As for the high-risk profession of ninja, Ye Shan planned to retire at the age of 30, open a hot pot restaurant, and live a good life in the second half of his life.

Ye Shan is not unaware of the plight of civilian ninjas, but he is powerless to change it, nor does he want to make a change. The difficulty is very great, and it is tantamount to a foolish dream for him to change the current situation alone. Perhaps, when Minato truly becomes the Hokage, he will truly make up his mind to reform all this.

Ye Shan’s dream is so simple, to survive in the ninja world, to survive in the village, and to live until the day he dies. That would be enough.

A cool breeze blew by, interrupting Ye Shan's thoughts. It turned out to be Shan Chengchen who had arrived.

Even though they hadn't seen each other for two years, their feelings had not faded, and had even become stronger. Ye Shan opened his arms, hugged Shan Cheng Chen, and patted him hard on the back a few times, then pulled his arm and looked at him carefully.

"Chen, you've worked hard all the way."

Previously, Yamashiro Tatsuya had fought against Kirigakure on the eastern front of the Land of Fire, while Hayama had fought against Sand Village in the west. There was the Land of Fire in between, so the distance was not short.

Shan Chengchen's face was filled with excitement, and he said emotionally: "Captain still remembers me, so it's not hard no matter how far away I am."

Ye Shan smiled and said, "Let's talk in the tent. Have you eaten yet? I'll go to the cafeteria and get you some."

Shancheng Chen waved his hands repeatedly, indicating Ye Shan not to rush, and the two of them walked into the tent one after the other.

Although the tent was large, there were not many furnishings. There was only a low table that Ye Shan had brought from somewhere else. On the table were two teacups and a kettle. It looked extremely shabby.

Inviting Yamashiro Chen to sit down and rest, Ye Shan poured two cups of water from the kettle and handed one to Yamashiro Chen.

"Chen, you are 25 years old this year, right?"

"It's after August 26th." Shancheng Chen said after taking a sip of water.

"Have you ever thought about getting married?" Ye Shan asked with concern.

Being unmarried at the age of 26 makes him a typical bachelor in the world of Naruto. Being a ninja is a physically demanding profession, and if he doesn't get married, it will be difficult for him to marry a good girl.

Shancheng Chen didn't want to hide it, and said seriously: "No, I still have a younger sister. Over the years, I have saved a lot of money, enough for her to live a stable life."

Ye Shan put down the teacup he had just picked up, frowned, and said unhappily: "She is her, how can you not get married? Don't worry about money, I have saved a lot."

Shancheng Chen felt a warm current flowing through his heart, but he still refused: "Captain..."

"Call me Ye Shan!"

Shancheng Chen opened his mouth, but couldn't call out the name after all, and said helplessly: "Captain Ye Shan, I really don't want to get married."

"Why? What's the difficulty?" Ye Shan continued to ask.

But Yamashiro Tatsuya did not answer his question, but said something that surprised Ye Shan.

"Captain Yeshan, how long do you think the ninja world will remain peaceful?"

Ye Shan groaned and said, "About fifteen years."

In fact, according to Ye Shan's estimation, peace would only last less than ten years, but he still deliberately said more, wanting Chen to get married first.

After all, the worst of the three unfilial acts is to have no descendants, and housing prices in the Naruto world are not expensive, so people can still afford to get married.

Shancheng Chen smiled faintly, and did not refute, but said: "Fifteen years, my child is old enough to go to the battlefield."

There was silence in the tent. Ye Shan pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Not to mention fifteen years, in just ten years, Yamashiro Tatsuya's child could go into the war as a Konoha cannon fodder, and there's a high probability that he'd die inexplicably at the hands of a ninja, or even lose his corpse if he's unlucky.

As someone who crawled out of a pile of corpses, Ye Shan naturally knew how horrible the death rate of low-level ninjas was. Being able to survive depended not only on strength, but also on the illusory luck.

"Captain, what's wrong with your hair and eyebrows?" Shancheng Chen asked to change the subject.

Ye Shan touched his bald head, smiled bitterly, and briefly told the other party about his miserable experience, and then asked: "Chen, is Yamanaka Yuura okay?"

In the Hayama team, Yamanaka Yuura has never been truly trusted by Hayama. The reason is simple: she is a ninja from the Yamanaka clan, and the Yamanaka clan is a die-hard supporter of the Third Hokage. However, despite the distrust, the three of them still have some feelings for each other.

Shancheng Chen's eyes flashed with gloom, and he said bitterly: "Yuuluo had her entire calf chopped off by the Mist Ninja on the battlefield. When I went to visit her a few days ago, she looked very bad."

Ye Shan squeezed the cup in his hand and said with a forced smile: "It's good to be alive."

The war brought only bad news to Ye Shan, but never any good news. After counting in his mind, Ye Shan found that there were not many people he was really familiar with. In front of him were Yamashiro Tatsu, Konishi Kakuei and Hatake Sakumo who had returned to the village, plus Namikaze Minato and Yamanaka Yuura, and that was it...

One by one, familiar people died on the battlefield, and Ye Shan seemed to be accustomed to it all.
