Konoha Tatsuno

Half a month later, in a small village on the northern border of the Land of Fire, Tatsuno and Ye Cang, wearing bamboo hats, were walking through the village.

This place is located on the northern border of the Land of Fire, not far from where Kumogakure and Konoha fought.

In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, both Tatsuno and Ye Cang had changed into the costumes of wandering ninjas.

"Right now, a fierce battle between Konoha and Kumogakure is going on. Do you really not need to go back quickly?"

Ye Cang glanced at the dilapidated village and said to Tatsuno.

"I'm just a young chuunin. It's normal for me to be injured during the mission and take a period of rest."

Glancing at the deserted village, Long Ye said calmly.

Since Jiraiya and Orochimaru brought a large number of Konoha elites to the northern border for support in January, Kumogakure and Konoha's troops have been in a stalemate at the border of the Land of Fire.

The two sides fought back and forth, but no one took advantage.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru, who are both one of the three ninjas, are already at the top of the ninja world. The young eight-tailed Kirabi and two-tailed Yukito can't get any advantage at all in front of them.

However, since it was Kumogakure who launched the surprise attack first, and the battlefield was within the Land of Fire, Kumogakure had the initiative on the battlefield, and Konoha's ninja army could only be in a passive defensive situation.

Both sides had their own advantages, which led to a stalemate in the war.

The dilapidated scenery of the small village where Long Ye and the others are now is caused by the war.

The entire village was almost empty, and all the people had fled.

After spending a few days recovering from their injuries on the western border of the Country of Fire, Tatsuno and Ye Cang rushed over non-stop.

Hearing Tatsuno's words, Ye Cang smiled slightly and said, "Little chuunin, you Konoha chuunin are quite extraordinary!"

"Haha, you are wrong! Our most powerful genin in Konoha are!"

Hearing this, Tatsuno couldn't help but think of the joke in the original book about not provoking Konoha genin, and said with a smile on his face.

Not to mention what happened recently, Matt Daiko, who turned Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen into the Lucky Three in the Third Ninja War, is a genin who has been a genin for more than 20 years.

"Konoha Shinobi?"

Ye Cang looked at Tatsuno doubtfully, not knowing why.

Long Ye smiled: "You will know later!"

Seeing this, Ye Cang didn't ask any more questions, and instead asked, "What are you going to do when you go to Tian Country this time?"

After recovering from the injury, Tatsuno took her to Tianzhi Country, but he never revealed to Ye Cang what he was doing here.

Along the way, the frustrated Ye Cang didn't ask any questions.

However, now that they have arrived at the northern border of the Country of Fire and will soon enter the territory of the Country of Fields, Ye Cang also wants to ask questions so that he can prepare early.

Tatsuno stopped, turned to look at Ye Cang, and said solemnly: "I am planning to establish a force in the Kingdom of Tian, ​​and you will help me manage it."

There was a hint of shock on Ye Cang's face: "You want to build a ninja village?"

Ninja Village cannot be established casually, it requires a lot of manpower and funds.

Hagura didn't think that just the two of them could build a shinobi village.

Tatsuno shook his head: "It is not necessary to establish a Ninja Village, but it is possible when conditions are mature."

The look on Ye Cang's face became solemn: "What exactly do you want to do? Are you planning to betray Konoha?"

Tatsuno's eyes slowly swept across the deserted village and said: "This ninja world is very dangerous. I just want to do my best to protect the people and things I care about."

Ye Cang also turned his gaze to the houses on the side, and said in a deep voice: "You Akimichi clan are Konoha's wealthy clan, and such danger should not befall you."

Tatsuno: "No one can say for sure about this kind of thing. Maybe one day Konoha will be directly destroyed."

Ye Cang was silent after hearing this.

Although Konoha Village has been slightly weakened in recent years, its strength is still the first among the five major ninja villages. If it cannot gather the strength of several major ninja villages, it will be impossible to win.

Judging from the entangled interests among the major ninja villages, it is difficult for such a situation to arise.

Although Ye Cang couldn't understand it, he could really feel Long Ye's worry and determination.

Is there really any force that can directly destroy Konoha?

Next, the two of them didn't say anything more and continued on their way.

Crossing the border of the Country of Fire, Tatsuno and Ye Cang soon entered the Country of Fields.

The Kingdom of Tian is a small country bordering the Kingdom of Fire. The Kingdom of Tian has not established a ninja village, and there is no decent ninja force in the territory.

In the original work, Orochimaru came to Tian Country after leaving the Akatsuki organization, and then bribed the daimyo of Tian Country to establish an Oto Ninja Village in his country.

After the establishment of the Sound Ninja Village, Tian Country became Orochimaru's main base.

In Tatsuno's original plan, he was not prepared to establish his own power so quickly.

But after accidentally saving Ye Cang during this mission, Tatsuno couldn't help but have this idea in his mind.

Based on the contact during this period and the characterization in the original work, Tatsuno has already made a rough judgment on Ye Cang's character and ability.

At this time, Ye Cang has a strong desire for revenge against the senior officials of Sunagakure Village who persecuted her, and needs to use Tatsuno's power to take revenge on the senior officials of Sunagakure Village.

Coupled with the life-saving grace he had given her before, Tatsuno was confident that he could entrust matters to her.

With Ye Cang's strength, it is enough to control a small ninja force in the early stage.

As for choosing the country of Tian as the foothold of the power, there are three reasons.

First of all, Tian Country is a small country. There are no other powerful ninja forces in the territory, and their presence in the ninja world is also very low. Placing Ye Cang and the others here can avoid people's eyes and ears, and will not easily attract the attention of others.

At the same time, without the interference of other powerful forces, the early development of the force can be smoother.

The second point is that because there is the Oto Ninja Village in the original work as a reference, Tatsuno is relatively familiar with the situation in Tian Country, which makes it easier to recruit talents and expand power.

At least there won't be any surprises here!

The third point is that Tatsuno has acquaintances in Tianzhi Country, and his money-making plan is also going to start from Tianzhi Country.

It is impossible to form a ninja force without the support of a large amount of funds.

In Tian Country, the richest man in Tian Country, Jin Yoshida, whom Tatsuno once rescued, is his acquaintance.

When he rescued Jin Yoshida, Tatsuno used the disease-sealing seal to improve his body.

At that time, Tatsuno just did it casually, hoping to form a good relationship, but he didn't want to have unexpected results in the end.

Under the transformation of the disease-sealing seal, Jin Yoshida's body not only improved in shape, but also greatly improved his physical fitness, and his skill in clapping for love became much better.

This kind of thing is simply not very attractive to a wealthy man like Yoshida Jin.

Therefore, after completing the mission and returning to Konoha Village, Yoshida Jin sent people to Konoha many times to deliver news, hoping to have further contact with Tatsuno.

Tatsuno has never refused to this, and now he just wants to go to Tian Country to ask Yoshida Jin for help.

With Ren Yoshida, a local snake, Ye Cang and the others can avoid a lot of trouble if they want to gain a foothold in Tian Country.

Moreover, Tatsuno's money-making plan is also going to fall on Yoshida Ren.
