The current situation in the Rain Country is not only our achievement. The farmers have also paid a lot and the Rain Village has also made great efforts.
Shouldn’t the benefits be distributed reasonably after joint construction?”
After Noah's explanation, some members of Akatsuki were able to let go of some of their worries.
They find it hard to accept that they have a lot of resources but they are divided among many parties.
It is also because the Akatsuki organization is too young and is distracted by these external things. Noah is telling everyone that we have paid a lot, but many people have paid at the same time.
The distribution system for production must be clear and not be ruined by greed.
This cold water calmed everyone down again. A ninja organization that is mainly a military organization is bound to encounter problems when moving towards a comprehensive system.
The One Piece world also made mistakes in the early days, but Noah's existence was to correct them and lay the foundation.
"By the way, please also send a copy of the data record booklet along with this letter."
The ninjas from Rain Village escorted a batch of supplies to the village.
Hanzo felt a little relieved when he saw the delivery of these supplies.
In fact, Rain Village does not need these for the time being, because there are relatively few ninjas in the village and there is no war to fight, so the funds are still sufficient.
If it wasn't enough, there wouldn't be enough to support the Akatsuki camp.
But Noah's actions conveyed an attitude, and this attitude of growing together made Hanzo feel very comfortable.
He also looked at the small account book in his hand several times.
After calculation, if it can be promoted, the strength of the entire Rain Ninja will expand unprecedentedly.
There was no need to plunder externally or extract internally. Hanzo was a little overwhelmed by the fact that just increasing productivity could bring about such a big change.
If the Rain Nation can do this, then the Fire Nation and other great nations...
No! They can't. The Rain Country is a small country in the Three Wars. But the bloody storm after the war is inevitable.
It seems that what Noah said to him when he came to the tower for the second time was not false.
I have been in a state of hesitation ever since my second meeting with Akatsuki.
The young man, so dazzling that he made people jealous, formed a peaceful organization, and then he was assisted by a powerful man with terrifying abilities.
The Akatsuki organization is growing visibly and is influencing the entire Rain Country.
From ninjas to civilians, it seemed that no one needed him as their guardian angel anymore.
The murderous intent really arose from time to time under the provocation of the outside world, but the Akatsuki organization continued to promote Hanzo's name in later times.
What a great hero who protects the Rain Kingdom, a bridgehead for maintaining peace, and a pillar who is willing to support others.
After he was really put up there, he kind of... didn't want to come down.
In addition, the material feedback after the autumn harvest really overwhelmed the murderous intent, and it seemed that this transition was quite good.
He worked hard to protect the Rain Village and the Land of Rain from wind and rain, and his followers will inherit his will and continue to do so.
The infectious energy of a thriving country affected even this cold-blooded ninja leader.
It seems that the ideals of the past have revived a little...
Hanzo gave up his intention to kill, and the Daimyo of the Rain Country was very unhappy.
As the combined identity of the guardian daimyo and daimyo master, after knowing that Akatsuki and Hanzo were at odds, he also sent a lot of supplies to aid that place in an attempt to alert Hanzo.
As a result, the other party cooperated with Hanzo again and even sent supplies. This was simply too much.
Even some of the occupied farmland could not be reclaimed because of the war, but there was not even a single letter of condemnation due to the confrontation between the ninjas.
Who knew the Akatsuki organization was so rude.
You have to know that even those temporary unowned lands are theoretically the property of the minor masters of the big and famous families, which is a very taboo thing.
Those petty nobles had come to me for justice, but I had suppressed them all.
Is it because of these things that Akatsuki has given itself the idea that it is weak?
Chapter 31 Yahiko's Anger and Powerlessness
The daimyo felt that ninjas were dogs that could never be tamed.
What the daimyos from the five major countries said at the gathering turned out to be true. The tools called ninjas still need to be restricted by more means.
Before the Daimyo of the Rain Country could roar with wrath, Noah came to pay his respects first.
Moreover, this time he brought along his disciple Yahiko, who was still suffering from autism, for a rare occasion.
On the road, Yahiko pushed the cart silently, and Noah lay leisurely on it admiring the scenery along the road.
"Teacher, why did you bring me here? Didn't Nagato and Konan handle it well?"
He didn't know that Noah didn't have much patience to continue giving to the autistic boy, and that awakening still required a little bit of external assistance.
This meeting with the daimyo is a great opportunity.
"Being locked up in a tower is just a way of escaping. Sensei, I am a very cruel person."
“Is it painful to see part of the truth about the world?”
"Do you think that world peace is not that meaningful anymore?"
"After the war is temporarily eliminated, will you be happy to see those silent people still living in poverty and hunger?"
"The Akatsuki organization doesn't have much time left to help them...it will be over in about a year."
"That means the beautiful dream of Akatsuki and those people can only last until the second harvest."
"After the war, Hanzo may not have the courage to continue to support such things, and the daimyo and nobles will definitely become more aggressive in recovering their "losses."
The words he spoke kept throwing what Yahiko wanted to escape into his disciple's heart again and again.
And it didn't give any hope.
……
Yahiko wanted to push the car off the cliff. This teacher has such a vicious tongue.
And the unvarnished truth was indeed very powerful. It hurt him so much that he wanted to get angry.
The journey was truly a torment for the young man, and it came to a temporary end when he arrived at Daming City.
Seeing the daimyo in the city sitting in the main seat, he expressed his dissatisfaction in a neither positive nor negative manner.
In an age when personal power can change the world, these once noblest people have lost most of their deterrent power.
If you want to punish a ninja organization, you can only use economic and cultural means. Unless Hanzo takes down Yahiko, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, the daimyo will be in a bit of an awkward position.
Noah had been mentally prepared for this level of responsibility.
He used Hanzo's threat to get supplies, but then he turned around and cooperated with Hanzo. It would be embarrassing for any superior.
So the Hanzo threat theory continued to be online, which was nothing more than the Rain Village threatening the Akatsuki organization to hand over protection money. This also gave both sides a way out.
At the same time, a new Danzo threat theory was released, saying that the Fire Nation might try to drag the Rain Nation into the water, so it has been looking for opportunities to disrupt this country.
The war may not end with a war between great powers, and the Akatsuki organization still needs the long-term support and maintenance of the daimyo.
For this purpose, he is willing to provide Daimyo Castle with certain military forces, such as guardian ninja.
This attitude made the daimyo feel much better, but he still politely declined.
He would rather train some ninjas and guards of average strength than accept the "good intentions" of the Akatsuki organization.
If loyalty is important to the ninja community, then yes, but a Daimyo with little fighting power is not something that ordinary ninjas are willing to accept.
And the daimyo is the iron rule of the entire ninja world, no one will harm him, unless that guy is a crazy person who is determined to fight against the whole world.
Noah did not stop here, but talked about the fields.
Yahiko is still watching, so we have to let the Daimyo add to the fire as well.
Seeing that the land under the management of Akatsuki has increased so much, it is surprising to see that the daimyo are also surprised. As for the land contract distribution method handed over by Akatsuki...
"No."
"Why?!"
These words made the young man at the side unable to control himself and asked back.
Yahiko was a little puzzled. Isn't this something that can enhance the national strength of the Rain Country? Teacher Noah doesn't care about such a precious thing leaking out, so why don't these people who can enjoy more resources want to?
"Whether there are these rain countries or not, they are all rain countries. The increase in production only shows that these tenant farmers have not worked hard to cultivate the fields in the past, and they need to be severely punished."
Yahiko was suddenly filled with chill, wondering how he could have such a weird idea.
Thinking of the peasants who were looking at him pleadingly, he tried to explain to the daimyo the superiority of this system, the benefits of implementing the principle of distribution according to work, and the future development prospects.
But the daimyo was already very impatient.
"Even without this thing, the resources of the Rain Country are sufficient, and the land belongs to the small masters. How can we let those lowly people infringe on the things of the superiors?"
"Is Akatsuki going to teach me how to govern a country?"
This is almost a very stern warning.
Power is a very sensitive matter. As long as the Akatsuki organization has the slightest desire to get involved, don't blame the Daimyo for punishing them in a very severe manner.
Yahiko could only retreat helplessly, as if some strange force was suppressing the young man.
The urge to punch this bastard hard never came up.
Noah understood that this was the power of the thousand-year-old rules. Growing up in this world, being exposed to the world around them, no matter if you have culture or not, you will continue to be tamed by this power.
He gave a meaningful smile and then changed the tense atmosphere.
Instead, it recommended a centralized approach to the daimyo, still based on data and prospects.
But it's not guidance but seduction.
To put it simply, this country actually does not need so many nobles. Just one daimyo is enough, and the fields and assets of this Rain Country will all be yours.
The ties brought by marriages between nobles were not strong, and the inherent rebellion of the lower classes had overthrown countless upper nobles.
He also made crazy promises to the other party and explained the benefits and advantages of being a daimyo after the concentration of power.
In short, the goal is to completely destroy the aristocratic feudal system and bring the Rain Kingdom under one's own control.
This is also a deep pit that was dug by chance. The fight between the daimyo and the nobles can also divert some of the attention of this group of people. Don't always focus on the Akatsuki organization and the ninja village.
Even a little bit of estrangement is good.
Fighting is impossible. The tacit understanding formed over so many years cannot be changed by just his words.
So before leaving, he implicitly expressed his willingness to be a sword in the daimyo's hand, to help deal with those disobedient nobles and maintain the daimyo's rule.
In short, although no better progress was made after all the sweet talk, the daimyo also expressed his understanding of the behavior of the Hollows and Pseudo-Snakes between the Akatsuki organization and the Rain Village, and asked them to withdraw.
Yahiko once again witnessed the power of his teacher, who was like a bewitching demon.
Chapter 32 The boy draws his sword!
On the way back pushing the cart, the boy was as silent as when he came, or even more silent.
"The daimyo are intelligent people. They are politicians who are not distracted by things like power and blood. They know clearly what they want and what they don't want.
He just wants to use my power to crack down on the Rain Village and the disobedient nobles. There won't be any major changes in this country.
If nothing unexpected happens... it's the same cycle for the past few hundred years... it's a good thing for the Akatsuki organization at this stage."
This was not the analysis that Yahiko wanted to hear, he was still very angry about the field matter.
"Teacher, do those poor farmers really have no chance?"
"Do you think the nobles will give up their own interests? Do you think that even if the farmland is distributed, the final fee will still be ours?"
"Have they never seen how miserable the people at the bottom of society are?"
Noah looked at his disciple in surprise.
"Yahiko, how can you have such a naive idea? How can a place as small as Daimyo Castle not know what life is like for the lower class?"
