[Naruto] Cao Yawei nodded almost imperceptibly. He now controls Konoha Village, with manpower and money. The next step is to control the Land of Fire, and then he can plan to unify the ninja world.
There will be divisions after unification, but that will be a hundred years from now, and the divisions will inevitably be resolved by unification.
Compared to the frequent Shinobi World Wars currently erupting in the shinobi world, there have been three Shinobi World Wars in just a few decades, with the fourth already on the horizon. These wars have undoubtedly caused countless deaths and created numerous war orphans, making them far more brutal than any war that might occur after unification.
Because it happens too frequently.
Cao Ya from [One Piece] was somewhat envious, but Cao Ya from [Naruto] was making far greater changes in the ninja world than he was in the world of [One Piece].
Who can blame them when Cao Ya, the protagonist of Naruto, controls Konoha, the strongest ninja village? In the world of One Piece, the most powerful force so far is the World Government. The Revolutionary Army can declare war, but it still needs a long period of development to completely overthrow the World Government, which has ruled the world for eight hundred years.
Aside from those lower-level worlds, such as "The Return of the Condor Heroes," "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer," "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles," "Entertainment," and "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty," possessing peak two-star power, one can often accomplish whatever one desires.
But in higher-level worlds... even in mid-level worlds like One Piece or Naruto, there are still some things that can't be done.
In Naruto, the truly top-tier Six Paths level had not yet appeared. When the Otsutsuki crossed the starry sky to reach the ninja world, without the power of the Six Paths level, they would all be doomed.
I won't bother saying more about that lazy bum in the world of Detective Conan.
Since there were no new people, everyone quickly dispersed.
Naruto World.
The Land of Fire, Konoha Village.
"The reform conference of the Land of Fire should be convened." Cao Ya murmured, standing in his office, where he could see many streets of Konoha Village, densely populated and full of flowers.
The Hokage's hat was on the table, and he wasn't wearing the Hokage's robe either.
Because what he's doing has too much of a Naruto influence, it's actually not a good thing.
He was the Fifth Hokage, having risen to power through force. At the time, the only two people who could compete with him were Jiraiya and Tsunade, but both of them voluntarily withdrew.
Jiraiya never wanted to become Hokage; he knew he wasn't cut out for politics.
Tsunade is depressed, and without Naruto's appearance, she will continue to be depressed.
The Third Hokage died during Orochimaru's "Konoha Crush Plan," and Shimura Danzo was also killed by Cao Ya. Orochimaru then subdued Cao Ya, imprisoned him, and finally made amends by developing various public welfare projects.
With a series of achievements, strong strength, and no one to compete with, Cao Ya's rise to power was a natural outcome.
Furthermore, after killing Danzo, he gained control of the entire Root organization.
At that time, Cao Ya already had the power to overturn the table, and after thinking it over, the others could only agree.
Who could have gotten an imperial edict from the emperor?
No one dared to imagine that Cao Ya had taken control of Daming and was providing him with political endorsement.
With political support and sufficient military strength, what problem could Cao Ya possibly have with the position of Hokage?
There were indeed some obstacles along the way, but Cao Ya easily dismissed them.
Under Cao Ya's leadership, Konoha displayed remarkable vitality, which undoubtedly dispelled the doubts of the ninja clans and civilians.
Even the commoner ninjas completely sided with Cao Ya.
Who allowed Cao Ya to use most of his ninjutsu and taijutsu?
As long as you make contributions and accumulate enough merit points, you can exchange them for rewards, which is much better than before.
Most commoner ninjas used to only learn a few basic techniques like the Three Body Techniques at school. After graduation, they would follow their instructors, and if they were lucky, they might learn a couple of skills. If they were unlucky, they would lose their lives.
Why don't they support the current fifth generation's fair and just policies?
The ninja clan's goodwill? Will they give us S-rank ninjutsu, or A-rank or B-rank ninjutsu?
Cao Ya also established various departments, such as the Research Department, Ninjutsu Department, Physical Arts Department, and Illusion Department, which attracted many ninjas from ninja clans and gave them fame and fortune.
We have everything, so what's the point of rebelling?
He's not out of his mind.
In the end, ninja clans, common ninjas, and even foreign ninjas all came to believe in Cao Ya, the Fifth Hokage.
Under his rule, Konoha Village was completely freed from the control of the Daimyo. Not only was its military strength tightened, but its economy was also consolidated. In terms of politics, he also began to suppress the Daimyo's prestige and elevate the Hokage's status.
In this kind of world, strength is the foundation. Without strength, how can one control the political and economic discourse?
That doesn't make sense.
After all, truth lies only within the range of cannons, and dignity lies only on the edge of a sword.
"Fifth Hokage, are you really sure?" Orochimaru licked his lips, but his cold demeanor had faded considerably. Perhaps it was due to his position as the vice minister of the research department, who had led the development of a series of projects, most of which were livelihood projects that were promoted in Konoha and benefited many people.
This improved Orochimaru's reputation, after all, he was once one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha.
The head of the research department is Cao Ya, but he's only in name; the real executive head is Orochimaru.
For Orochimaru, as long as he can conduct research openly and honestly, there is no problem. Immortality is also something he is pursuing, but he looks down on the old methods.
Because the fifth generation offered a better, more enticing method.
This is one of the reasons why he puts his heart and soul into it.
Orochimaru chuckled:
"Abolishing the daimyo system and abolishing the aristocracy is going against the rules that have governed the ninja world for thousands of years. Fifth Hokage, you're probably doomed."
While reviewing the documents, Cao Ya said without looking up:
"What, you think I can't handle it?"
Orochimaru shook his head. In Konoha, Cao Ya's prestige was unmatched. For example, he himself was unwilling to replace him as Hokage. If that happened, would they still be able to conduct research like this? Would they still be able to pursue immortality?
If he was unsure, why did he agree?
Orochimaru also knew perfectly well that every single one of the guys in the Ninjutsu Club, Taijutsu Club, and Genjutsu Club—Kakashi, Hiashi Hyuga, Kurenai Yuhi, and so on—wanted Cao Ya to remain in the Hokage position.
Their rights were created after Cao Ya took office and established new departments.
If the new Hokage takes office and these departments are abolished, then they will have no choice but to step down as well.
Besides, denying Cao Ya is tantamount to denying their positions.
Who would allow that?
Cao Ya also firmly controls the Root and the Dark Branch. As long as these two forces are not divided, Cao Ya's position as Hokage will remain unshaken.
But Orochimaru wasn't talking about Konoha or the Land of Fire; he was talking about the entire ninja world.
He had heard Cao Ya talk about some goals and knew very well how difficult the road would be.
Orochimaru was also the leader of Konoha in the past, and had led many wars. He was also once the most promising candidate for the Fourth Hokage. He was not completely ignorant about politics.
Not to mention that after Orochimaru defected from Konoha, he established the Hidden Sound Village on his own, something that most people couldn't do.
