"Those small lords almost all live in towns on the edge of farmland, and their vassals often appear in the fields."
"I just don't care."
If it was the size of an ancient Eastern country, it would be fine if the emperor of the central government didn't know about it. But this famous city in the Rain Country... It's farmland half an hour away, how could he not know about it?
If they really didn't know, how could they possibly set the kind of taxes that just keep people from starving but also keep them from getting full?
"You don't really think that this kind of contract responsibility system is something that ordinary people can't think of, right? After so many years, there will always be similar things."
"It's just that... tenant farmers are not important. It's so stable for generations to honestly bury their heads in the fields and beg for food."
"Even if some people suddenly don't want to work anymore and want to eat more, the samurai class is the first to not allow it. Now the ninja class is the same."
Yahiko was silent for a while, and suddenly thought of a sentence he had heard in class before.
There are only individuals who betray their class; there is no class that betrays its class.
Just wanting to feed the lower class people would cause the whole world to start opposing it. It's really powerless...
"No one can accomplish all the actions with words alone, and now is not the time to confront the de facto managers of this country.
We must stabilize the war and develop rapidly during this window period. Only after the war will the battlefield belong to us."
Yahiko seemed to understand something. He could feel that what the teacher had been doing during this period of time was to save the country from the root, but it also seemed to be destroying the country at the root.
Changes in the land exacerbated the conflict between nobles and commoners, and changes in power attempted to create a divide between daimyo and nobles.
What about intention?
I always feel that although the teacher gets along well with the daimyo, he is also kind to the lesser daimyo.
But in the deserted corner, Yahiko saw that when the teacher looked at these people, it was no different from the way he looked at the pigs raised in the camp. That ruthless look was full of blood.
He even seemed to see that when the teacher clashed with the nobles, this mysterious teacher would not hesitate to raise his knife and hang all those... in the teacher's words, unproductive waste, on a tall flagpole.
When they were almost at the camp, Yahiko suddenly came to his senses and asked a few questions.
"Teacher, what would it take for the Rain Country to become good?"
"Let's set a small goal: everyone can have enough food to eat and children can have books to read."
"There will be a lot of people who object, just like today. Maybe they... don't want everyone to live like this."
The child first felt hope for this bright future, but then felt sad about being scolded by the daimyo.
"Yahiko, think about it before you do anything. Is this a good thing to do? Is it good for these ordinary people? Is it good for ninjas?
It's good for everyone, except for a few nobles.
So the question is, does this world belong to them or to us?"
The division of class standpoints made Yahiko suddenly realize that there was such a way to understand that sentence.
And he also had the same idea as his teacher, that the death of a few nobles seemed insignificant to this world.
And... I really wanted to give that idiot a sword just now.
The scene of Daimyo constantly saying no kept replaying in his mind.
Noah saw that it was almost time, so he started his best push.
"You are actually the bravest one among the three, but you started to get scared after seeing only part of the truth."
"I have a friend who was destroyed by pirates when he was young. He was then sold as a slave. After escaping, he was faced with a strong man who could have crushed him countless times, and he awakened his will."
"I resolutely embarked on the journey to change the world. The difficulties and obstacles I faced were countless times more tragic than now. Even the sword in my hand was broken."
"Even though he faced death nine times, he never regretted it. He carried the faith of hundreds of millions of people without fear and finally fulfilled his ideal."
"The Frost Moon Sword Art that I taught you comes from this. It is not for people without courage."
The unfolding of the myth shocked Yahiko to the core. Is this person who can do something like this really a human?
Even the story of the Six Paths Sage that is popular in the ninja world does not have such a passionate story.
He felt guilty, extremely guilty, because he had put down his sword during this period of time.
“When you are confused, start practicing swordplay. When you have mastered the swordplay and know when to strike, then you have mastered it.”
When they reached the camp gate, Noah uttered his last words.
If Yahiko still fails the test, he will consider training a new leader for the organization.
Xiaonan is a good choice.
After returning to the camp, Yahiko first looked at his study notes, feeling the power of the sentences therein.
"The distribution of productivity, value, the meaning of life, the future, fairness, how come there are so many things that I haven't seen before."
Yahiko seemed to see the answer given by the teacher. There was no place for nobles and daimyo here either.
As for the rules that we have to face in every corner of this world...what about our own choice?
Looking at those ordinary people with smiles on their faces and the children attending literacy classes from the window...it's not that difficult.
Picking up the sword, I felt the different feeling on the hilt, and there was a power of telepathy running through it.
The so-called strongest sword should be able to protect what you want to protect and cut off what you want to cut off.
"Maybe I don't know where the future will lead me, but in Akatsuki, in the Land of Rain, I know what my sword will do."
Yahiko walked outside the camp.
He did not pause at the stake, but aimed at the forest itself.
Daimyo, nobles, ninjas, rules, bloodline... there are so many enemies, Sensei.
The boy draws his sword!
Chapter 33 The Differences between the World and Kendo
The reason why we think the flowers on the cliff are beautiful is only because we stop at the cliff, instead of taking a brave step towards the sky like the fearless flowers.
Yahiko took this step.
His spirit, energy and soul were united as one, and he recalled the scene of his teacher slashing his way out of the canyon and he suddenly realized it.
So this is Kendo!!
Swing your sword!
After a while...
The person is still the same person, the tree is still the same tree, the forest is still the same forest, and even the small animals in the forest have not changed at all.
There was no sword energy that flew dozens of meters long like a waterfall, nor was there any magnificent aura that could cleave the sky and split the earth.
"Is this the effect of you drawing your sword?"
Noah's question appeared in Yahiko's ears.
The two friends following behind him looked at their good friend who had regained his vitality with surprise.
The boy with the sword drawn felt a little embarrassed at this moment.
Noah, Nagato and Konan watched from behind for a long time, watching the boy awaken himself. The moment he drew his sword, everyone was shocked and happy at his condensed spirit and aura that was visible to the naked eye.
In the end, nothing happened after the sword was swung. Not even a fallen leaf was picked off.
Not to mention the sword wind, it's just very powerful.
"I also thought there would be a hundred-meter-long sword energy or something, but in the end there was nothing, hahahahahaha."
As expected, this guy is a fool. Noah feels that this child's mind may take a completely different path from that of a dragon.
It seems that the guy has never been seen in the pirate world in a miserable state. No, there was one time when he was hit by two punches from Cap Bang Bang.
but……
"Yahiko, why don't you add chakra to it?"
"Because you didn't have any chakra when you drew your sword, Sensei."
……
I, the great swordsman, ah~~ Even if I don’t have domineering power, as long as there is supernatural power in this world, I can forcibly draw it out, and I can chop a hundred or eight thousand meters of sword energy for you to see in minutes.
Do you understand the value of the pinnacle of swordsmanship? In the past few hundred years in the pirate world, there are no more than five great swordsmen of the same era. Even at the end of the era, few people can reach the top.
Do you really think that sword is easy? The power of nature is coordinated and mixed into one's own will to control it. The difficulty of that moment is no less than using the power of the universe that combines Yin and Yang.
Black Zetsu was so severely injured by such sword light that he was unable to do anything.
Are you, a little Karami who has just learned sword for a short time, having your brain blocked?
After a moment of silence, Noah raised his hand slightly, then chopped down on Yahiko's forehead.
Not fast, not slow, just like cutting through the canyon that day.
No matter how the child tried to hide, he could feel the hand right above his head. The feeling of being unable to avoid or resist made cold sweat break out on his back.
The knife hand gradually became bigger in Yahiko's eyes, and the threat of death was always there.
boom!
"This is the realm. Use chakra to practice sword skills for me from now on."
Each world must follow its own rules. Since Chakra is so popular in the Naruto world, there must be many reasons for this.
This power extracted from the human body is very simple and easy to use, and... omnipotent.
The ninjutsu, physical techniques, illusion techniques, sealing techniques, etc. developed on this basis have flourished and borne countless fruits.
Chakra swordsmanship is very useful in this world.
Think about it, after the Uchiha clan opened Susanoo, it was not uncommon for them to flatten mountains with one sword. There is a sense of beauty of great power and flying bricks.
And things like the Crescent Moon Dance, White Fang's Hatake Sword Technique, and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki's Aragaki Sagittarius Sword are all excellent combat skills.
There is also the peculiar warrior country of the Land of Iron, and Mifune's Iai Slash... It seems simple and unpretentious, but it is actually very simple.
Anyway, there are quite a lot of people in the ninja world who play with swords, probably to save chakra.
Most ninjas never learn a few ninjutsu in their lifetime, so the ancient and efficient skill of chopping people with a knife has always been popular. Even Uchiha Itachi likes to carry a small knife and wield it randomly.
Using chakra as the basis, developing the Shimotsuki Kendo of the Naruto world is also a good choice.
Yahiko is already a strong jonin, and his control of chakra is almost instinctive, with Noah teaching him swordsmanship.
This combination is equivalent to using the grandfather's plug-in.
Some cheats are good and some are bad for practice. If you ask Noah... they are good, very good.
If I had been strong enough back then, many regrets could have been redeemed, especially the magical skill of Shadow Clone.
For Yahiko, whether it is the pure sword energy without attributes, or the water attribute chakra that he is good at, they can be mixed into his own swordsmanship.
For example, what is the combination of form change and property change plus swordsmanship? Similar to the gorgeous breathing swordsmanship in Demon Slayer?
In the future ninja world, where people would feel embarrassed to greet others if they don't have a few special moves, you will have both face and substance.
At least there would be no problem in entering the Kage level with his swordsmanship. Of course, it is not something a novice swordsman can comprehend now.
After being hit hard by Noah, Yahiko felt that he had indeed made a fool of himself, and then began to combine chakra with Shimotsuki Kendo.
Although the development was difficult, under the great swordsman's high-level guidance, the progress was quite fast.
In fact, Noah just has no chakra, otherwise he could adapt a set of sword techniques based on chakra as the energy source in minutes.
This is the unique power of the Great Swordsman realm after its concept is sublimated in the Type-Moon world.
At this moment, this force is cooperating with his will to continuously wear down the Yin-Yang Seal. Liudao really underestimated him.
Sooner or later, Noah will have to go talk to that bastard. Of course, it’s not a personal vendetta, but there is something that needs to be communicated.
Seeing that the three disciples had found their own paths and started to grow rapidly, Noah felt a little relieved about the basic situation.
Compared to his strength, Yahiko's mentality has been reoriented, and he must have the foundation for further improvement.
Then he could start the class with peace of mind, as the previous lessons were too gentle.
This is not the true level of revolutionary lighting. You have to know that before, whenever he said something, it would make people tremble.
The boy, now that his heart knot has been untied, has regained his former vigor.
