The five hidden villages reacted differently to the "Chakra Refining Method" flowing into the civilian population!
Except for the Water Country, they are all very resistant to civilians practicing chakra.
The Lightning Country is the most domineering. The internal unity of the Cloud Hidden Village and the strong Raikage even suppress the secular king of the Lightning Country, but they don't have a good temper with ordinary people. They directly impose a "ration system" on the civilians, and also extend high-yield crops produced in the north to ordinary farmers, but the results must be handed over in full, leaving only enough food and clothing, eliminating the possibility of civilians practicing chakra...
The Fire Country is the most moderate, using other rewards, such as some spiritual and cultural products, entertainment products, in exchange for excess grain production among civilians, and once the behavior of civilians refining chakra is discovered, an additional "chakra tax" will be charged.
The Earth Country is the most conservative, directly prohibiting civilians from privately planting high-yield crops, and at the same time increasing corvée labor, forcing civilians to cultivate official fields, and the official fields are planted with high-yield crops, and the results belong directly to the Earth Country and the Rock Hidden Village.
The Wind Country is the most miserable...
In February of the same year, the internal struggle of the Sand Village came to an end, and Ye Cang succeeded to the Fifth Kazekage. Luo Sha's old subordinates were completely suppressed, and Ye Cang even intended to completely deny Luo Sha and directly appointed himself as the Fourth Kazekage!
However, considering that Luo Sha had signed many important agreements with other countries and hidden villages, completely denying the legitimacy of Luo Sha's position of Kazekage would make the effectiveness of these agreements ambiguous, so Ye Cang reluctantly became the Fifth Kazekage, but he wrote a lot about Luo Sha's deeds during his lifetime...
The high-yield crops studied by Orochimaru mainly have three directions-short maturity period, high yield, and cold resistance that meets the characteristics of the northern region!
However, in terms of drought resistance... The Update Alliance is not so kind as to consider it specifically for the Wind Country!
After Ye Cang took office, he personally negotiated with the monarch of the Wind Country. In terms of policy, the Wind Country was close to the Fire Country, and was even more open than the Fire Country. However, the dividends obtained were not as good as those of the Fire Country...
It seems that the Fire, Earth, and Thunder Countries probably still think that the Renewal Federation is doing a good job for them, which greatly increased their annual production of Bingliang Pills, while the Renewal Federation stupidly dispersed its power among those mud-legged people.
The Water Country, which had just reopened from isolation, had a big change!
When the Federation was established in January, the reformists headed by the Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village suddenly announced that the new monarch of the Water Country was suspected of murdering his own people and his status was illegal, and they brazenly attacked, or rather, raided the Water City Palace.
Many of the Water Country's guardian ninjas also turned against the Kingdom, and the new Water Country monarch was captured directly. Immediately during the negotiations between Zabuza and the Water Country royal family and conservatives, the Renewal Federation announced resolutions such as "chakra civilianization"...
Zabuza would always announce his response to the Federation's call the next day.
He also immediately took out the seeds of "high-yield crops" to win the hearts of the people in various places, as well as the support of grassroots and local secular forces.
In the end, the secular nobles of the Water Country and the conservatives of the Hidden Mist Village realized that Zabuza had basically discussed with the Renewal Federation and was going to take action against them while the countries were attracted by the north. It was not as imagined that he was just dissatisfied with the new monarch...
The reason why they were still negotiating was just a delaying tactic. While using the Renewal Federation to stir up trouble, he was also winning the hearts of the people in the Water Country!
However, they realized it a little late. The reformists led by Zabuza also decided to "break before you build". The two sides broke up and the civil war in the Land of Water could not be avoided after all...
In the end, Zabuza won the support of grassroots secular forces under the banner of "supporting the practice of chakra by all people" and "promoting free cultivation of high-yield crops". The local small nobles were not of the same mind as the royal family and the great nobles. In addition, the reformists' military strength advantage occupied the main island of the Land of Water and the islands in the northeast.
The royal family, great nobles, and the conservatives of the hidden villages of the Land of Water were driven to the islands in the southwest, closer to the mainland.
Because of the mediation of the Land of Fire, Zabuza was unable to complete the work, and the Land of Water was divided into two...
Zabuza also realized that it was the conservatives who colluded with the forces of Konoha, and the Konoha roots headed by Danzo were secretly protecting the Land of Water.
In April of the same year, the Water Country moved its capital to Wind Bell Island near the coast of Konoha, and the Hidden Mist Village moved to Shalo Island, which was also close to Konoha. At the same time, the Hidden Mist Village formed an alliance with Konoha... and it was a closer alliance than Konoha and Sand Village!
As for Zabuza, he didn't bother to care about them. He stole the name of "Hidden Mist Village" and announced to join the "Renewal Federation" on the original site of the other half of the Water Country. At the same time, the Renewal Federation also announced that considering the special situation of the Southeast Islands, "One State, Two Systems" would be implemented. The former Hidden Mist Reformists headed by Zabuza established the Federation's "Overseas Southeast Branch" on their own and divided the counties.
In May of the same year...
The Ice Palace reappeared near the border between the Eastern Lightning Country and the Southeast Branch of the Federation. At the border between the Renewal Federation headquarters and the Lightning Country, the Federation Army was frequently mobilized to strengthen the Federation's "Overseas Southeast Branch" and deter the Lightning Country who wanted to take the opportunity to get a piece of the pie!
While the Renewal Federation was in the limelight, the Fire Country also "took down" half of the Water Country without bloodshed, and the New Mist Village became a vassal of Konoha.
Although Zabuza and Guan Liyuan both felt that they were taken advantage of... After all
, they were fighting with real swords and guns. In order to deter the Lightning Country, the Renewal Federation was not just a "troop mobilization" as the official statement said, but a contact war had already occurred!
In the end, Konoha did nothing and directly took away 30% of the fruits of the Water Country, which was really unpleasant.
However, at this time, both the Federation headquarters and the overseas southeastern branch were no longer in good shape, so they had to temporarily acknowledge the existence of the Water Country and the Mist Village, and not provoke Konoha for the time being...
And in the turbulent months, many small countries have also emerged.
Most small countries follow the policies of the big countries behind them, but some are independent. The western countries are in chaos due to the influence of the Rain Country and act more radically. The southern countries bordering Konoha are mostly more open, close to the Federation in terms of policies, and even have some contact with the overseas southeastern branch of the Federation.
What is also surprising is that the "Land of Grass" started comprehensive reforms faster than the Land of Water!
After the defeat of the Bamboo Clan, many radical reformists emerged in the Land of Grass. After Konoha ignored them, the top leaders of the Hidden Grass Village have been replaced twice... In
March, the three strategies of the Grass Ninjas, which proposed "enriching the country, strengthening the people, and connecting to the sea", were one of the few small countries that fully supported the "universalization of chakra". At the same time, they also contacted the overseas Hidden Grass Village. However, due to Konoha's attitude, there has not been much open communication.
Other small countries like the southern Sanriku Island also unexpectedly performed surprisingly well after the "Renewal Federation" took the lead. They did not panic like other countries, but regarded this as an opportunity.
This is also what Guan Liyuan hopes to see...
In April of the 61st year of Konoha, a "strange event" that no one paid attention to occurred. Someone in the southern part of the Land of Fire witnessed a city emerging from the clouds and flying north.
In May of the first year of the Federation, because of the decree prohibiting ninjas from entering the country without reason and prohibiting anyone from engaging in illegal activities such as "hiring murder" within the country, the Renewal Federation broke out in conflict with the Land of Thunder and the Land of Earth!
Therefore, near the three major countries, the ninjas of the Cloud Village, the Rock Village, and Konoha often perform missions in the north. Among them, Konoha has not come for a long time because of the agreement with the Field Village. Moreover, the attention of the Hokage Itachi is now on the Land of Rain, and the attention of the Root Danzo is on the interests of the southeastern sea area, and it is not involved in this incident...
The Cloud Village and the Rock Village claimed that the Renewal Federation attacked the ninjas of the two countries, demanded the surrender of the murderer, and threatened with war!
In fact, Guan Liyuan had long known that the two countries had sent ninjas to enter the country privately, and even from the beginning they were tempting the Renewal Federation to take action... Either
give them a reason to coerce war, or sit back and watch the new federal law exist in name only. Guan Liyuan's choice for this is naturally "not polite".
Facing the threats from the two countries, the Federation's response was also very tough...
"Since the technology tree has been climbed almost to the top, it's time to show it off!" Under the order of Guan Liyuan, the first Grand Speaker of the Federation, the Federation army gathered at the borders on two routes, one heading west and one heading east.
It was also announced that the two countries must give explanations and compensation for the illegal entry of ninjas, otherwise the Federation will declare war on the two countries!
The Land of Lightning, which has always been soft-hearted and has been most constrained by the Hidden Village, immediately decided to go to war, while the Land of Earth, which has the most harmonious relationship between the Hidden Village and the royal nobles, played Tai Chi after the Federation took a tough stance.
However, Guan Liyuan knew very well that Ohnoki was waiting to see the outcome of the war between the Federation and the Land of Lightning. If the Federation was weak or gave him an opportunity to take advantage of in the west, he would definitely not miss the opportunity to take a bite!
In June of the first year of the Federation, Konoha was ambushed in the Land of Rain. Many elite jonins and a large number of chunins were attacked and sacrificed, and even the copy ninja Kakashi lost an eye... The
Fifth Hokage, who advocated the annihilation of the Hidden Rain Village, was criticized by Konoha.
Seeing that Konoha's strength was damaged, and it had to invest more manpower in the Land of Rain, the Land of Thunder was completely unconstrained.
The Northern War was about to break out, and the Fourth Ninja World War was about to break out...
But for Guan Liyuan, this was "a year later", and the time to stay in the Naruto world this time was up!
"After the announcement of the 'Chakra Universalization' bill, my Corpse Bone Vein was promoted to 'Killing Gray Bone', and the career rune was directly changed... This should be considered a career advancement, right? Jiang Ruonan's 'Overlord Soul Chaser' is a fusion of two advanced professions, and my current 'Killing Gray Bone' is an advanced fusion profession... I wonder which profession is stronger?" Guan
Liyuan muttered to himself, and his consciousness left the Naruto world!
As for the Naruto world, Guan Liyuan was only away for three hours, but for Guan Liyuan, the next time he would enter the Naruto world would be one year after the main world...
