Chapter 139: New Situation! The Ninja World is in a Two-Polarity Rivalry!
Fire Nation.
No, it should be the Republic of Fire.
The new Fire Kingdom, which has implemented a new republican system, has completely gotten rid of the influence of daimyo and nobles, and has firmly grasped political and military power in its hands.
It became the first country in the history of the ninja world where both political and military power were controlled by the ninja village.
Konoha also successfully promoted from a ninja village to the capital!
The original capital of the Fire Nation is no longer the capital, but under the decision of Namikaze Mirai, it is developing into a commercial center.
Namikaze Mirai, the Fifth Hokage, is also the supreme ruler of the Fire Republic.
The power of the entire country was taken over by Konoha.
Konoha was in a state of excitement, and the villagers were smiling warmly in the streets and alleys.
The abolition of the one country, one village system did catch them off guard at first, but after enjoying the benefits of the system change, these villagers were filled with gratitude.
The ninjas who decided to get on the bus also felt fortunate.
The power of the daimyo has been consolidated by Konoha, and with such a huge amount of power, almost all the ninja clans that participated in the reform got a share of it.
The power in his hands has greatly increased, and he controls the lifeline of all walks of life in the Republic of Fire.
At this moment, they are extremely glad for their original choice.
Should we be the ninja of a village? Or should we be the ninja of a country?
The results have given them the answer.
Among these ninja clans, the only ones who felt depressed and indignant were the Sarutobi clan.
It was because on the eve of Namikaze Mirai's transformation, Sarutobi Hiruzen, as the Sandaime Hokage, forcefully prevented Namikaze Mirai from destroying the system left by the First Hokage.
After being severely beaten, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally followed his heart and gave up this plan.
But the consequences were irreversible. The Sarutobi clan was completely eliminated in this change and not only did they not get any benefits.
Even the power they originally held was divided up by other ninja clans, and they became a marginal ninja clan.
The Sarutobi people were furious.
The pent-up resentment in their hearts could only be vented secretly towards their clan leader Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The Sarutobi clan demands change. To change their current situation, they must eliminate the old forces headed by Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Such words spread among the younger generation of the Sarutobi clan.
Hokage room.
"In the future, 70% of the nobles' expropriation in the Fire Republic has been completed. After hearing about this change, most chambers of commerce have obediently separated from the nobles."
In the Hokage room, Orochimaru reported the data in his hands.
There was a hint of joy in the voice.
Establishing a new order was much easier than he expected.
Due to the death of the daimyo, the aristocratic system of the Fire Country has completely collapsed.
The nobles who remained in the country either fled or died, and these aristocratic class who wholeheartedly supported the daimyo's rule began to gradually disappear.
Most of the chambers of commerce and companies that were affiliated with these nobles, except those that were directly controlled by the nobles, took the initiative to distance themselves from the nobles in an uncommon manner.
For these businessmen, protecting their own interests is the most important thing.
As for whether the aristocracy will withdraw from the stage or not, it has nothing to do with them.
On the contrary, after the changes in the Fire Nation, some new trends will inevitably emerge. At this time, we should cling to Konoha and offer our loyalty.
Who knows, it might bring huge benefits.
"a wise decision."
Namikaze Mirai originally planned to select some merchants to make an example of them.
But now it seems that I have saved a lot of effort.
With the support of these merchants from all walks of life, Konoha can truly control the economic lifeline of the Fire Republic.
Today's Konoha no longer needs to rely on taking mission orders to survive like before.
Konoha already controls the economic lifeline of this country and also has specialized ninjas engaged in production activities. Does it rely on the daimyo to transfer funds?
Wouldn't it be nice if I killed the daimyo and everything was mine? "There is one more thing in the future."
Orochimaru's expression froze slightly.
"The four major countries issued a joint statement half an hour ago, deciding to form a four-nation alliance to impose sanctions on our country from multiple aspects, economic, military and political."
"is it?"
Namikaze Mirai felt a little interested.
He was not surprised by the alliance of the four powers.
The current ninja world is in a situation of one superpower and many strong ones. Konoha's strength is no longer something a single ninja village can contend with.
The alliance of the four major congresses is inevitable.
However, the economic sanctions did surprise him a little.
It seems that those shadows are not all idiots.
Orochimaru groaned and continued.
"The international situation in the ninja world has become increasingly tense because of the changes in the Fire Nation. Many small countries that have been oppressed by the daimyo have seen a new path, but they are afraid of the threat of the Four-Nation Alliance and dare not take action."
"Since the Four Nations Alliance wants to protect the rights of the Daimyo, we in the Republic must naturally do the opposite."
Namikaze Mirai sneered.
"Spread the news that the Fire Republic will establish the Fire Federation. Countries that dare to kill the daimyo and carry out national reforms are eligible to join the Fire Federation."
"Once you join the Fire Federation, you will be protected by Konoha, enjoy the economic mutual assistance rights of the members of the Federation, and can trade freely."
"This……"
Orochimaru was shocked.
"In the future, will this be too harsh?"
Once Namikaze Mirai makes this statement, what kind of storm will it stir up in the ninja world?
Orochimaru couldn't imagine it.
I am afraid that after getting the support of Konoha, the situation of those small countries that were originally hesitant will be in jeopardy.
With one statement from Namikaze Mirai, the necks of all the daimyos in the ninja world were directly put on the gallows!
Chaos!
The ninja world is about to be in chaos!
"Orochimaru, the era of bipolar confrontation in the ninja world is coming. These small countries have no way out. They must choose a side. This is their only way to survive!"
Namikaze Mirai's deep blue eyes revealed a deep smile.
Possessing the memories of his past life, he is not unfamiliar with the current situation in the ninja world.
In fact, it can be said to be quite familiar.
The US and the Soviet Union competed for hegemony and polarized the world.
The small countries in the ninja world had no choice: should they continue to stick to the old ways and endure the exploitation of the daimyo? Or should they rise up in resistance, overthrow the daimyo, and embrace the new system?
Different choices will determine whether they join different camps.
It will also determine the benefits they will gain in the subsequent game.
"Interesting, I can't wait to see a world like that."
Orochimaru licked his lips, and a strong look of anticipation emerged in his golden vertical pupils.
Wonderful! So wonderful!
The decadent ninja world finally ushered in a new wind.
What kind of changes will this trend bring to the ninja world?
……
Shortly after the news of the Four-Nation Alliance came out, another explosive news came out, causing the entire ninja world to boil over in an instant.
The Fire Republic issued an official statement.
Any country that overthrows the one-country-one-village system and implements a new political system is eligible to join the Fire Federation and accept the protection of the Fire Republic.
When the news came out, the ninja world was shocked!
