The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

Not only that, there is another more important point, which is that Kiyoshi does not want the future of the Hidden Mist Village to enter the formal ninja career too early.

Graduating from the Ninja School means that they will officially become a Genin and begin to carry out tasks for the village. If it is during wartime, they will be used as cannon fodder and consumables and sent to the battlefield.

These children are the cornerstones of the future prosperity of the Hidden Mist Village. Only with a sufficient number of ninjas can more Chunins, Jonins, elite Jonins and even Kage-level ninjas be born.

Stepping into the true ninja path too early would only increase their casualties for no reason. After all, what Qingsi wants is not cannon fodder, but ninjas who can truly contribute to the construction of Kirigakure.

This is no longer the Warring States Period when children as young as 5 or 6 years old had to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. One of the purposes of establishing the ninja village is to protect the children so that they can grow healthily and prevent them from becoming official ninjas too early and going to the battlefield to fight.

Moreover, after the rapid development in recent years, the Hidden Mist Village is not short of combat power, not to mention that it is still a peaceful era. Therefore, there is no need to let these children or teenagers who are less than 10 years old enter the career of ninja too early.

In the five years since he succeeded the Fourth Mizukage, under the influence of Kiyoshi, the Hidden Mist Village has gradually formed a common belief with the spiritual core of unity, sacrifice, tolerance, and dedication.

These spiritual cores are not only reflected in the actions and attitudes of the ninjas, but are also deeply rooted in the hearts of every villager. They use unity as strength, sacrifice as honor, tolerance as mind, and dedication as responsibility to jointly protect the peace and tranquility of this Hidden Mist Village.

Early in the morning on the day before the graduation exam of the Kirigakure Ninja Academy, in the backyard of Seiji's house.

Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan were here at this moment, quietly waiting for their teacher to arrive.

Yahiko, who was cheerful and lively, couldn't stand the quiet atmosphere and suddenly asked his two friends, "Nagato! Konan! Tell me! Why did Mr. Seiji ask us to come here so early in the morning? And he specifically told us not to eat breakfast!"

After hearing this, Nagato raised his head, glanced at Yahiko with his lavender Rinnegan, then lowered his head again without saying a word. Due to his personality, he still wanted to be a quiet handsome man.

Konan rolled her eyes at Yahiko, childish! He's already grown up, and is about to graduate and become a real ninja, why is he still so impatient!

"The teacher must have his own ideas. As a disciple, we just need to obey him! The teacher will not harm us!" Xiaonan replied unhappily, but his tone was very gentle.

For Konan, Kiyoshi is the light in her heart. She does not allow anyone to question her teacher, not even such a simple inquiry, not even Yahiko, her childhood sweetheart, who has experienced countless hardships and obstacles together and grown up together.

"Ah! No, no! I'm just asking, just asking!" Yahiko explained hurriedly, then secretly glanced at Konan, his face slightly flushed. She still spoke so gently!

Just as Yahiko was frantically explaining to Konan, suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the three of them.

It’s Qingsi!

"Teacher Qingsi!" Xiaonan exclaimed in surprise. She hadn't seen her beloved teacher for almost a month.

Yahiko and Nagato also had smiles on their faces and looked at their teacher with respect.

In the past month, because the graduation exams are approaching, the Ninja School has been organizing students to make the final sprint of their studies, and all the sixth graders are trying their best to get good grades.

After all, the graduation exam not only tests their ninja strength, but also has certain requirements for the performance of cultural courses and ideological education courses.

Moreover, they are the first batch of graduates from the six-year ninja school and they must set an example for the entire Kirigakure. It is also said that the Fourth Mizukage, who is respected by the entire Kirigakure, will also attend their graduation ceremony.

Therefore, the three little ones have been extremely busy recently, concentrating on their studies. As disciples of the Mizukage, it would be embarrassing if they could not rank among the top three.

The same thing happened to Qingsi, who was also caught up in endless busyness.

Almost five years have passed since the end of the last Ninja World War. Recently, the atmosphere in the Ninja World has become a little strange. It has become a little tense and uneasy. An ominous premonition has shrouded the entire continent, as if a new storm is about to come.

The shadow of a new round of Ninja World War, like a thick dark cloud, has gradually begun to float over the Ninja World. As time goes by, this haze is getting thicker and thicker, making people feel that the breath of war is getting closer.

42 years after entering Kirigakure, the major ninja villages have launched a crazy arms race. They no longer hide their strength, but openly display their military strength. This open competition has plunged the entire ninja world into a tense atmosphere, and every ninja can feel the pressure of the impending war.

At this critical moment, relations between countries have become complex and delicate, and former allies have begun to suspect each other.

However, there is no real alliance between ninja villages.

The most reliable thing in a ninja village is always interest. There are no eternal enemies, nor eternal friends, only eternal interests. This is the truth!

As for the Hidden Mist Village, although it is far away from the Ninja Continent and isolated overseas, it is also affected by this atmosphere. After all, the Hidden Mist Village now has many interests with the continent.

Under the leadership and active promotion of the Ministry of Finance headed by the Elder Master, the business sector of the Hidden Mist Village, which has rich marine resources, can be said to have flourished.

The Ministry of Finance has formulated a series of policies and measures to encourage villagers to engage in business activities. At the same time, it has also strengthened trade with other towns in the Water Country, expanded market channels, and increased the circulation of goods. These measures have not only promoted the rapid growth of the Kirigakure Village economy, but also improved the living standards of the villagers.

In addition, the Ministry of Finance also pays attention to the development and utilization of marine resources. The output of fisheries has doubled and a large amount has been exported to other countries. At the same time, the Ministry of Finance also encourages the development of related industries such as seafood processing and tourism, further prospering the economy of the Hidden Mist Village.

Various trade activities have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, making the whole village full of vitality and vigor. Merchants have flocked in, bringing a variety of goods and resources, promoting rapid economic growth.
