Konoha, I have the Herrscher of the End core in my body.

There are many unknown unspoken rules in the ninja world. Due to the limitations of the world's technological level, the absence of the Internet, cameras and the like, as well as the suppression of certain people, these things will naturally not be spoken openly. For example, wandering ninjas stealing countries, and Genin being cannon fodder.

But Naruto doesn't care about these things. The same goes for Nagato and Konan. So they start to expose these things on TV. Of course, this is just a side effect. This exposure is mainly aimed at the privileges of nobles, daimyo, and samurai, especially samurai. This is the first privileged class that Naruto wants to fight.

It's not that Naruto is targeting the samurai intentionally. It's just that the samurai group has no need to exist now. Ninjas still need to complete missions to make money, but when have samurai ever done missions to make money? They rely entirely on the state for support, not to mention the privilege of killing or revenge. Ninjas will at least respect the law on the surface and will not kill people openly.

Naturally, not all powerful ninjas abide by the law, otherwise there wouldn't be so many bounty hunters in the underground. But ninjas at least have some scruples and rarely take action in towns.

These are the privileges that samurai had after the ninja world came onto the historical stage and became weak. In the era when ninjas still established ninja villages, the privileges of samurai were much greater than they are now. They could really kill people at will on the street, which is the so-called sword-testing.

In fact, the rise of ninjas was also related to the support of daimyos from various countries. They used them to check and balance the samurai. After all, ninjas were obedient and had no ambitions, so they were much easier to control than samurai.

Don't think that the samurai today are very loyal to the so-called daimyo and that they will always be loyal to the daimyo. If that were true, there would be no so-called shogunate. It can be said that in this world, if the ninjas had not appeared, the samurai would probably have to carry out the tradition of defeating the strong with the weak.

The daimyo of the five major ninja countries are not as stupid as they seem. In fact, they are all extremely shrewd, otherwise they would not allow the five major ninja villages to be used by them.

The Daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind has been weakening the expenses of the Sand Village. If viewed from another perspective, this may also be weakening the strength of the Sand Village.

"Kakashi, it's so rare that you come to see me." Naruto's residence was originally the Land of Hot Springs, now it has become the Village of Hot Springs. Here Naruto met Kakashi whom he had not seen for a long time.

The Whirlpool Kingdom established by Naruto only existed for a few months before it was ready to withdraw. The next thing was the Kingdom of Akatsuki. Although Nagato and Konan had no obsession with the name of the future country, Naruto also had no obsession with the Whirlpool Kingdom. In addition, the name of the Whirlpool Kingdom seemed to be tied to the Uzumaki clan, so the Kingdom of Akatsuki was a more suitable name for a unified country.

Now Akatsuki is on the right track and will develop step by step. Only the leadership's determination has not wavered. It is only a matter of time before the ninja world is unified. Except for occasionally showing up, Naruto spends the rest of the time in Yu-no-Mura. After all, the scenery here is beautiful, there are many hot springs, and it is close to the sea, so you can taste fresh seafood. The resort in the ninja world is not boasted. In terms of the environment alone, even Konoha is slightly inferior to here.

Not to mention that Naruto also made relevant renovations to Yu Village, adding a cherry blossom street to the original rose street.

"Naruto, what do you want in exchange for letting Konoha go?" After staring at Naruto for a while, Kakashi directly told Naruto the purpose of his visit.

"Let Konoha go? Where do you come from? I don't understand. I don't seem to have any feelings for Konoha recently. In fact, after the Sarutobi clan was wiped out, my Konoha's grudges have been settled." Naruto showed an expression as if he didn't understand what Kakashi was saying at all.

"You should understand what I mean." Kakashi stared at Naruto and said seriously.

"Are you talking about those blockades? Then you shouldn't come to me, you should go to Akatsuki. I believe you have heard the news that I have resigned as the daimyo." The Whirlpool Country is about to be incorporated into the Akatsuki Country, and naturally he will lose his position as the daimyo of the Whirlpool Country.

Hearing Naruto say this, Kakashi immediately fell silent. It was undoubtedly a huge irony that the daimyo of a country, even the position of daimyo of the Fire Country, which was one of the five major countries, was abandoned so easily. Even he had to admire it, especially when compared with Konoha's unwillingness to give up tradition.

"Well, you are my father's disciple and my former teacher. Let me get straight to the point. The dilemma Konoha is facing now is not because of what I have done, but because you are still stubbornly clinging to tradition and unwilling to change."

The traditional mission system of ninjas in the ninja world has begun to collapse after the expansion of Akatsuki, and a new system has been established. Especially for those businessmen traveling in Akatsuki's sphere of influence, if you ask who they support more, the vast majority of them will definitely support Akatsuki.

In Akatsuki's sphere of influence, one only needs to pay taxes once and then one can move freely without any obstacles, and no longer needs to spend the high ninja hiring fees. This convenience has made some businessmen wish Akatsuki would unify the ninja world immediately, because then they don't have to go to other countries and pay taxes again.

"Look at what you have in Konoha. The Rock Ninja of the Iwagakure can build roads and bridges across water. The Mist Ninja of the Mist Ninja can build reservoirs, dredge waterways, and solve droughts and floods. The puppetry of the Sand Ninja Village is now a must-have for manufacturing various industrial products. What about Konoha? Besides killing people, what else can your ninjutsu do? Have you ever thought about improving people's lives?"

Without waiting for Kakashi to speak, Naruto continued, his sarcastic remarks made Kakashi not know how to refute. Although Naruto's words were a bit biased, Konoha was not without people who knew earth jutsu, water jutsu, and puppetry. Even the function of fire jutsu was not necessarily to kill people, it also had its unique uses. However, generally speaking, Naruto's words were not wrong.

As for the Cloud Village, their Lightning Release actually has many uses, but since Naruto hates them, there is naturally no place for them in the new Akatsuki Country. Yes, he just holds a grudge like that.

Even if Nagato and Konan were willing to treat everyone equally, it would be of no use because among the five major ninja villages, Konoha and Kumogami Village were the two least likely to compromise.

Back then, Konoha was the founder of the ninja village system, but now they have become conservatives. Even though they keep saying that they are doing this for peace in the ninja world, this peace can only be the peace created by Konoha.

As for the Cloud Ninja Village, the situation there is even simpler. They only care about their own village. They have never thought about peace in the ninja world. In the original work, if there was no greater threat in the form of Uchiha Obito's Infinite Tsukuyomi, and if there were no two super powers, Sasuke and Naruto, who dominated the ninja world, the so-called peace would have been nothing but a joke.

"By the way, Kakashi, are you interested in coming to Akatsuki? You should know that Akatsuki is the one that truly strives for peace in the ninja world. There have been fewer disputes in the ninja world recently. There are no bandits or robbers in Akatsuki's territory. Sometimes I even wonder if you, the ninja village, allow them to appear just for the sake of the mission."

Akatsuki has been carrying out the elimination of bandits and robbers in its sphere of influence, with Kisame, the new chief of the security department, leading the operation. Although there are no convenient means of communication such as telephones, some bandits and robbers hiding in the mountains cannot get the news in the first time.

However, Xiao did have a way to deal with the situation. They added more ordinary people to the security team and asked them to patrol around on bicycles or electric vehicles.

The system of the ninja world is also very strange in this respect, that is, no matter what the matter is, it relies on ninjas and completely abandons the team of ordinary people. In fact, there is no need for this. The number of ninjas is still too small compared to ordinary people. Some things can be handled by ordinary people and there is no need for ninjas at all.

"Konoha has never done this." Kakashi immediately and flatly rejected it. It is not a good reputation to keep the enemy as one's own.

"Really? I clearly remember that there were many bandits and robbers gathering in many places near Konoha, and Konoha never thought of exterminating them. They always waited for the people there to issue tasks before sending people to deal with them."

Naruto's words made Kakashi silent again, because these were words he could not refute. Naruto had carried out a related mission in the past, and according to the common sense of the ninja world, this was not without problems. However, now after Naruto revealed the surface, there was bloody darkness inside.

Considering the situation of Konoha's Anbu organization, it would be fine if it happened in other places, but it would be too unbelievable if they didn't know about it in a place so close to Konoha.

"Kakashi, Akatsuki is expanding right now. If you join now, you can still enter the core management. Once Akatsuki completes the unification of the ninja world, it won't be so easy. To be honest, I actually hope that Konoha will take the initiative to attack Akatsuki. Konoha claims to be fighting for the peace of the ninja world, but in the end, it took the initiative to start a war for its own interests. It's interesting to think about it, isn't it? And in this case, even if I take action to destroy Konoha, I have a legitimate reason. I'm sure my father, the Fourth Hokage, won't blame me."

When seeing Kakashi looking at him with an expression of disbelief, Naruto ordered him to leave with a smile on his face. He liked shrimp and pork heart more and more.

"Teacher Kakashi." When Sakura saw Kakashi walking out of the room, she immediately went to greet him. This time Kakashi brought Sakura with him. To be precise, Sakura wanted to see Sasuke and begged Kakashi to bring her here. Unfortunately, she did not see Sasuke because he was not there at that time.

Unlike Naruto's leisurely life, Sasuke is now on the front line against the Cloud Village. Unlike the Konoha Village which will not take the initiative to attack Akatsuki, the Cloud Village has been provoking him, so Sasuke leads the Rain Ninjas to fight against them.

Although war is not a good thing, we have to admit that war can make people stronger. The Twelve Warriors of Konoha became powerful only after experiencing Orochimaru's Konoha collapse plan.

Don't think that the Kumogakure is weak just because Naruto can break into the Kumogakure alone and capture the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki. Under normal circumstances, if Nagato doesn't take action on the Akatsuki side, it would be very difficult for the others to destroy the Kumogakure even if they joined forces.

At this stage, Akatsuki mainly focuses on the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth. The Land of Lightning and the Cloud Village are not the main targets, so they turned them into places for training troops.

"This bastard." After Tsunade received Kakashi's report, the desk in front of her was scrapped again. After venting for a while, Tsunade's expression finally calmed down.

"I didn't expect that he would do this for this purpose. It seems that he hasn't given up his previous hatred. Now we are in trouble." Nara Shikaku on the side couldn't help but sigh. As Konoha's think tank and military strategist, he could be said to be the smartest man in the ninja world. Facing Konoha's current situation, he was also at a loss. The power gap between the two sides was too big and it could no longer be made up by wisdom. And judging from Naruto's behavior, he was not a fool either. Konoha couldn't even find an ally now.

The situation in the Cloud Village was the same as that in Konoha. Both sides had a common enemy. Even the newly appointed Fifth Raikage sent people over to join forces with Konoha to deal with the threat of Akatsuki, but Tsunade did not agree.

What they are facing now is not the Infinite Tsukuyomi like Uchiha Obito who threatens the survival of the entire ninja world. If Tsunade dares to reach an alliance with the Cloud Village, believe it or not, the Hyuga clan will collectively betray Konoha in the next moment. The relationship between Naruto and Hinata is no secret in Konoha, but no one dares to make a fuss about it. On the one hand, it is the deterrence of Naruto's strength, and on the other hand, this will undoubtedly push the Hyuga clan to the enemy's side. The Hyuga clan had no choice but to stay in Konoha before, but not now.

"That old immortal, even after his death, he still left me so much trouble." Everyone present knew very well who caused Naruto's situation, but now Sarutobi Hiruzen is dead. Although there are still survivors of the Sarutobi clan, it has completely declined. Talking about this, there is no way to change the current situation in Konoha.

Jiraiya on the side rarely drew Tsunade's attention this time. After all, no matter what, Sarutobi Hiruzen was their master and he was already dead. As the saying goes, the dead are the greatest. Some things are difficult to pursue. However, who made this guy leave such a mess for Konoha?

"The Genin below are in a panic now. If this continues, some of them may betray me. Also, many ninja families have begun to contact Akatsuki." Nara Shikaku reported the current situation of Konoha to Tsunade.

No matter how strong the will of fire is, if you can't fill your stomach, everything you say is meaningless.

"I understand." In the end, this negotiation still ended in failure. Without sufficient strength, everything is empty.

"Is this world this time? Ice Queen Esdeath is really beautiful in person. I'm lucky this time."

Looking at Esdeath who was standing not far from him, with long flowing blue hair, tall figure, and graceful figure, Naruto couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. Hinata was naturally very beautiful, but Esdeath's temperament was completely different.

After staying in the Ninja World for a while, mainly training and accompanying Hinata, Naruto continued his journey in the Quantum Sea, and then came to an ice battlefield. The entire battlefield was filled with frozen corpses with terrified faces.

Naruto, who emerged from the Imaginary Gate, quickly attracted the attention of Esdeath, who was showing her prowess on the battlefield, and then the two confronted each other.
