Dark Naruto's acting life

March Rain City will be Naruto's bridgehead for completely recovering the Whirlpool Country, so the Thunder Gods stationed here are destined to tragedy.

More than 10,000 people outside the city were eliminated one after another.

The people of the Vortex Clan thought they were somewhat useful, but when the critical moment came, they were actually of no use at all.

The initial battle to annihilate the Thunder Camp was enough to shock them, but after Naruto took action, they realized what immediate results meant.

As soon as several clones appeared, the Sage Mode was activated, and several large-scale combined ninjutsu were launched at the same time with an astonishing momentum, burning mountains and boiling seas. The army of thousands of people was directly annihilated without even a scream.

Soon, all the Thunder Gods outside the city were cleared out.

As for the thousands of people in the city, there are some problems.

The troops outside the city are gathered together, and most of them are usually in the barracks. The people inside the city are mainly responsible for public security, so they are stationed in scattered locations.

But this did not matter. Naruto asked Zabuza and others to use transformation techniques to transform into the appearance of Inui Hirofumi and issue false orders, saying that there was an enemy attack and asked them to gather and prepare to fight. When they lined up and prepared to set off, Naruto descended from the sky and killed them with a single Wood Release.

At this point, all the Thunder Gods in March Rain City were cleared out.

Only a few lucky ones survived, accounting for no more than one percent of the 20,000 Thunder Gods.

These people were terrified and angry when they realized that someone had destroyed the Thunder Gods. Over the years, they had been sitting on the heads of the people of the Whirlpool Country and doing whatever they wanted. They had long considered themselves the superiors and the rest of the people were their slaves.

I never expected that this day would come.

But even though they were angry, they did not dare to track down the culprit behind all this, but instead found their own way to escape.

Some people went to join the defenders of other cities, while some smart people realized that this matter was no longer something that the army stationed in the Whirlpool Kingdom could resolve, so they hurriedly fled the Whirlpool Kingdom and returned to the Thunder Kingdom to report what had happened there.

Naruto ignored these small fry.

Although Naruto and his team acted quickly, they were not secretive, so what happened today quickly spread throughout the city.

The news that tens of thousands of people were wiped out in a short period of time caused panic among the people.

Some people want to escape from March Rain City.

More people are staying at home waiting for the situation to become clear.

No matter what, most people in the city didn't dare to go out, and the bustling streets suddenly became silent.

The bustling port city was as deserted as a ghost town.

More than 20,000 troops died suddenly, and no one knew what happened. This situation was normal.

Naruto and the others had already expected this result.

But Naruto needed the city to return to normal.

So not long after, the lord of March Rain City, Kaoru Ichijo, and the elder of the Uzumaki clan, Jungoro Uzumaki, took to the streets together and began to speak out.

The general content is to enumerate the numerous crimes of the Thunder Gods, such as burning, killing and looting, and to publicize the return of the Whirlpool Clan.

At the same time, they also announced that they would liberate the entire territory of the Whirlpool Kingdom as quickly as possible. By then, the entire country of the Whirlpool Kingdom would relax taxes and reduce levies, so that the residents of the Whirlpool Kingdom would no longer be second-class citizens under the tyranny of the Thunder Gods.

The people who got the answer suddenly realized.

Some people were rejoicing.

Some people are full of doubts.

Although the Uzumaki clan is the old master of this land, who knows if they will lie on their heads and suck their blood like the Thunder Gods did?

You know, the supplies and pay of the Thunder Gods are almost all taxes paid by the people of March Rain City.

The Vortex Clan has the power to wipe out these 20,000 people, which means they are a more powerful force. If such people exploit them, the people will have no way out.

Just when everyone was worried, another news came out soon, that is, tax exemption.

From now on, local people will not need to pay any taxes for one year.

The tax rate one year from now will be significantly lower than it is now.

This decree takes effect immediately.

Hear this.

Some people even danced in the streets.

Some elderly people were so excited that they burst into tears, lamenting that the Uzumaki clan still treated them as human beings.

……

Naruto and his subordinates were currently recuperating in the city lord's mansion.

The cheers from the city soon spread here.

Ballroom.

Naruto and his group were having dinner.

Naruto raised the corner of his mouth when he heard the cheers, but didn't say anything.

The rest of the people had different thoughts.

After a moment, Zabuza said, "Master Naruto, is it really okay to exempt taxes for a year? It's okay for other small cities, but as one of the three largest cities in the Land of Whirlpools, the annual tax revenue of Sanyueyu City is an extremely huge number. It's a pity to give it up like this."

Naruto did not answer, but looked at Gaara who was only one meter away from him and said: "Do you think so too?"

Gaara was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Naruto to ask him a question.

Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, Gaara wiped his mouth and said: "If I can use one year's tax revenue in exchange for the support of the people, I think it is worth it."

Naruto nodded secretly.

Gaara is worthy of being the Kazekage for decades. Although he is still young, his choices and judgments are quite good.

Naruto nodded and said, "That's right. Compared to the people's will, one year's tax revenue is nothing. Moreover, I not only gained the people's will in March Rain City, but also took this opportunity to send out a signal. That is, the Uzumaki clan has made a comeback, and the people of the Whirlpool Kingdom no longer have to be oppressed by foreign races. They can stand up straight and live a better life. I want to let them know that we are here to help them cheer up. In this way, I, who have the support of the majority of people, can overthrow the rule of the Lightning Kingdom that has taken root here as quickly as possible and reshuffle the entire Whirlpool Kingdom."

"I see," the others nodded when they heard this.

Gaara: "But, using tax exemption to win people's hearts also has its drawbacks. The beneficiaries of taxation are the aristocracy. Our tax exemption will undoubtedly anger the inherent interest circles of the Whirlpool Country. Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. They will do their best to hinder our progress. This may be very troublesome."

Naruto: "What I want is for them to go against me"

Gaara was confused at first, but then he understood what Naruto meant.

Naruto said that the Whirlpool Country will become an ideal country, and an ideal country does not need the existence of those nobles.

It would be fine if those exploiters just accept the changes obediently, but if they resist, I guarantee they will die a miserable death.

Naruto's tax exemption system is probably intended not only to win the hearts of the people, but also to force those vested interests to rebel.

It will be easier for them to clean up the garbage if it is gathered into one pile.

The little strong men of Konoha are also here, and their expressions are extremely complicated.

Even though they only understood half of what they heard, it did not prevent them from refreshing their understanding of Naruto.

In the past, Naruto gave them the impression of being a taciturn boy who devoted himself to training and admired the Hokage. After the destruction of Konoha, they labeled Naruto as forbearing and ruthless. Now, there is another label.

——Old bitch.

……

That night.

Gaara found Naruto on the rooftop looking at the moon: "I thought I was the only one who came up to look at the moon when I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night."

He came up to Naruto.

Naruto smiled and said, "I'm a little homesick."

Gaara: "Home? Konoha?"

Naruto shook his head but didn't explain, "Speaking of sleeping, I want to discuss something with you."

Gaara: "Go ahead."

Naruto: "I'm going to pull the One-Tail out of you."

Gaara: "Yeah."

Naruto raised an eyebrow, "Why are you so calm? You should know that extracting a tailed beast will lead to death. You should be looking at me with an expression of disbelief right now."

"Hmm?" Gaara asked curiously, "Will you kill me?"

Naruto: "No."

Gaara: "Do you think I can beat you?"

Naruto: "I can't beat him."

Gaara crossed his arms and calmly replied, "That's it. You won't kill me. If you want to kill me, I can't escape. So what should I worry about?"

Naruto smiled and said, "As expected of you, you are so calm and calm. Don't worry, as long as you leave a small amount of the tailed beast's chakra in your body and use the technique I have researched to extract it, you will be fine. I have already tried it myself."

Experiment on yourself?

Gaara frowned slightly, and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You are taking too much risk."

Naruto didn't explain much, just said: "I succeeded."

The two stopped talking.

After a moment, Gaara continued, "Today's operation was very successful. The residents of March Rain City have basically accepted the return of the Uzumaki clan. But I don't understand why you don't go to the streets to issue a statement yourself, make a name for yourself, and accumulate more reputation. This will make your position as the king of the Utopia more stable and reasonable."

Naruto shook his head slightly: "There will be no king or daimyo in the ideal country. In the future, I will not hold any position in public, because my mind and ability are limited, and I am not good at leading anyone. After everything is settled, I will focus all my attention on improving my own strength."

Naruto looked at Gaara solemnly: "My friend, in my expectation, you are the first leader of the ideal country."

Gaara looked at Naruto in surprise. He never thought that Naruto would entrust him with such a big task.

……

Time flies by.

In the blink of an eye, it was two days later.

The Land of Thunder, beyond the Hidden Clouds.

Obito stood tall.

Space and time are distorted.

A half-black figure emerged from the distorted space.

The person who came was Black Zetsu who possessed Obito's body.

Black Zetsu: "Obito, the Land of Whirlpools has been in complete chaos. Uzumaki Naruto and his people have re-established the Uzushio Village and announced that the entire Land of Whirlpools has returned to the control of the Uzumaki clan. He has spread the news that all Thunder Gods have to withdraw from the Land of Whirlpools within three days, otherwise they will be killed without mercy."

Obito nodded and said, "It seems that the storm in the Whirlpool Country is almost brewing. It's time for the Raikage and his army to appear."
