Chapter 208: Outrageous Countries and Old Friends
The two continued on their way in silence, and Shizune questioned with a puzzled look.
Is this the Rain Country that Lady Tsunade mentioned?
Tsunade is very irritable, and he will lose his image as a senior.
How could a ninja be like this? Shouldn't he stab a kunai in front of the foot and then ask coldly?
And public transportation. This concept is a bit ahead of its time.
Isn't a carriage a symbol of nobility? When did it become a means of transportation that everyone can ride on?
Now, in addition to seeing a doctor, Tsunade has developed new interests. She is particularly curious about everything from the quality of ninjas to the concepts emerging from the Rain Country.
The square farmlands and various mechanized farming scenes she saw along the way made her a little confused about whether this was the country that had been crying all the time or somewhere else.
The spirit of ordinary people is different from that of the civilians I have seen before. They have an upward spirit that farmers in other countries do not have.
It was normal to be naked in the countryside, but the fact that these laborers were wearing coarse linen clothes was already a very remarkable thing.
What looks even more familiar are the farm tools simplified by puppetry. It would be interesting if we reverse the process.
She had fought an old witch for 300 rounds in the Kingdom of Wind and was very familiar with puppetry.
After all, the Kingdom of Wind was considered a powerful country among the five major countries during the Second Ninja War.
If the Chiyo old woman saw that someone simplified the puppet technique for farming, what would she think?
Is it that the Wind Kingdom is deserted, or is it that the Rain Kingdom is better?
Entering the town, it is a completely different scene compared to the Fire Nation.
The whole village is built very neatly and hygienically.
There were slogans on the wall, which made her very confused. Even if there were slogans on the wall, could they recognize the words?
As a result, I was slapped in the face again. The school here is divided into adults and children, and occupies the best location in the center of the town.
Most ordinary people only know a few words.
Even Jingyin, a girl who had never seen much of the world, found it outrageous. She had never felt such an atmosphere before.
"Tsunade-sama."
"I know. Let's take a closer look. If there is any problem, we will immediately withdraw from the Rain Country."
Although the current performance is good, for Tsunade, accidents mean risks.
Passing through several towns, I found that the houses were all built with uniform standards, and there were also schools and places for distributing farm tools, which shows that the entire country was under this kind of coordination.
And as a doctor, I was very sensitive to the fact that the population of this country had become very large.
The number of newborns is beyond imagination, even more than the baby boom in major countries after World War III.
Reproduction while having enough food and clothing is one of the instinctive desires of human beings, but it is not easy to achieve this.
All these abnormal phenomena made Tsunade frown.
Based on her understanding of the nobles, the Daimyo of the Rain Country is not such a person.
The small owners would not agree with this way of farming and dividing the land, but the reasons behind this are different.
Senju was also considered a great noble, so he naturally understood the political implications behind this.
Unlike Orochimaru who only focused on the perspective of scientific progress, the term Princess Tsunade is not called that for nothing.
As we walked further, we saw road construction troops rebuilding the compacted dirt road. Were they not considered regular roads before?
The engineering team is still digging deeper and adding some gravel and stones.
Moreover, along the two sides of this newly built road, there are actually telephone poles paved all the way to the outside world.
In any case, what Tsunade saw from this was a country's war potential.
Food, roads, population, energy, and machinery.
If we unite them, we can form an army in a short time.
If this world had not already entered the age of ninjas, the Rain Country's actions in the past would have made it possible for them to capture several cities and parts of territory.
Finally, when they saw a construction site in the distance, they were stopped.
"Sorry, the new town is being built ahead of us. If you need to go to Daimyo Castle, you can go west along the road or take the rail car."
……
What Tsunade didn't know was that Noah had already known about her before she entered the Rain Country, and he had issued Tsunade the highest pass.
All the previous ones were product display sessions, so these two people were able to see so many things.
However, in the temporary gathering place near the new town, there are many impoverished ninjas and the Uzumaki clan.
This part is not convenient to display, so it needs to be blocked.
In the end, Tsunade took Shizune on a rail car, which the child had never ridden before, and neither had Tsunade.
Out of curiosity, the two of them got in the car and drove towards Daming City at lightning speed.
There weren't many people on this rail car. In addition to the two outsiders, there were a few ninjas and a few scholars.
The most eye-catching one was a ninja without eyebrows. He had a strong aura that made Tsunade take a second look at him.
At least he's a decent jonin, but why does this guy look a little bit like a Mist Ninja?
Zabuza said nothing, still immersed in his own world.
After arriving in the Land of Rain, their vigilance gradually declined, and also because of Tsunade's strong perception, they did not notice that they were being observed.
I still remember that when I was in the Kingdom of Waves, I would not be changed when I said that I would not be changed. After coming here, I have been sticking to the principle of my blood mist origin.
Not all the most difficult tasks are looked down upon.
This time, he was entrusted by Lord Kyuubi to go out and carry out a very difficult task - to go to Daimyo Castle to buy food.
Jiuwei said that he had been overworking his brain recently and needed to eat some delicious snacks to replenish his energy. I was a little excited when I heard that a new food court in Daimyo Castle was being inspected.
It was training in the forbidden area of Rain Village and it was inconvenient for it to go out, so I asked Zabuza to buy some and bring them back.
It's really sad that Zabuza, a demon, is doing errands. If it weren't for a C-rank ninjutsu, he wouldn't do it!
But just by running some errands you can get a C-rank water jutsu, that's really nice.
When they were almost at the station, Zabuza realized that the person opposite him looked like Tsunade as described in the intelligence.
But it doesn't matter. He has realized that it will be difficult for people who have entered the Rain Country to leave.
We have arrived at Daming City.
The rail car stop is just outside the moat, and after getting off the rails, it’s only a few steps to the new Daming City.
This is still the political and cultural center of the Rain Country, and the people coming and going seem to be very busy.
There are ninjas, there are scholars, there are businessmen.
The Rain Country's isolationism mainly targets foreign ninjas, but ordinary merchants can still come to Daimyo Castle.
Tsunade and her companion followed the crowd in and looked at the renovated Daimyo Castle with great emotion. This country had built something special.
Not only are constructions being built everywhere outside, but even Daming City has expanded a lot.
There were actually quite a few more vendors on both sides of the road, and some of their snacks were completely different from those in the ninja world and smelled very fragrant.
Since you're here, buy some for Jingyin. Even though she owes a lot of gambling debts, it's not a problem to deduct some money to get by. After all, besides this, she also likes to drink.
She could owe money to the casino, but Lady Tsunade couldn't owe money to the small vendors.
Then I met the ninja without eyebrows again.
He was sweeping through the stalls with a list in hand, and soon he had packed a lot of things.
This heroic behavior caused the children on the street to look at him with envy.
Tsk tsk... The ninjas from the Rain Country are so weird, letting a guy who is suspected to be a jonin buy snacks here.
Tsunade's stare made Zabuzhan hurried to another stall to continue to sweep.
He is a principled ninja, and he will complete any mission he is given!
Tsunade continued walking along the street and suddenly saw a casino.
The decoration style is magnificent and magnificent, and you can tell at first glance that it is a very powerful one.
Although it was new, it just showed that the dealer needed a lesson. His eyes lit up immediately and he was about to go in for the lesson.
At least he was stopped by Shizune, who said that he didn't have the money to attend the class.
It is better for us to go and treat the patients first, and then we can go and kill them all after that.
Tsunade went to the address in the letter with regret, a quiet courtyard in Daimyo Castle.
The style is very simple but the cost is definitely not cheap. Aesthetics is something that is linked to money.
There was no servant, and the door was opened by the young man who followed Adam.
"Hello, Lady Tsunade. Please come in."
As I walked further in, I saw two people sitting in the courtyard drinking tea. Coincidentally... I knew both of them.
One is the patient Adam he is going to see this time, and the other is his old friend Orochimaru.
"So what was the reason for that win?"
Chapter 209 Akatsuki Recruitment
Orochimaru was in a good mood. Noah said that there were new members in our organization today.
What’s even better is that the other party doesn’t even know he’s joining the group, which means he’s just a passive member.
This immediately aroused his curiosity. Anyone who could make Noah take personal action must be an extraordinary figure in the ninja world.
Not to mention himself, the top scientist of the Fire Nation, the others are also of great background.
The former boss of the Rain Country, the top puppet genius of the Wind Country, the undead mercenary of the dark world, the fairy eye, the little girl whose test paper technique is getting more and more perverted, the former master of the Nine-tailed Jinchuriki's sealing technique, the non-human race and the nine-tailed demon fox, and the really useful Xiaobai. Oh, and an ordinary little yellow-haired boy.
These leaders and core members who were personally recruited all have strong abilities and are highly irreplaceable.
Now Noah wants him to cooperate in recruiting people... Even if he is busy with work, he can still spare some time to see the world.
It's just a little strange that Leng Jun's face is quite famous in the ninja world. When the other party sees him, will they really not suspect that there is something illegal about this organization?
"Don't worry, I'm half yours."
I understand. It’s from Konoha.
The relationship between Akatsuki and Konoha is very delicate. To a certain extent, the framework, personnel, funds, materials, etc. can be said to be sponsored by the Fire Nation.
It is not excessive to add some more people, because Konoha Village is known as the cradle of geniuses.
Noah's answer made Orochimaru's mind start spinning wildly.
In fact, the way of communicating with Orochimaru has always been to ask questions and think about the answers.
Smart people like Uncle Snake like this more strenuous way of communication to satisfy their little quirks.
Noah has a different way of communicating with each person.
For example, Xie likes to be direct and straightforward. He can just throw the drawings and make requests, and the other party will definitely find a way to complete it.
For a financial director who believes in the god of wealth, simply paying the money is more effective than saying anything.
When it comes to human nature, Noah has a very good grasp of it.
After a moment, Orochimaru did think of that candidate. This guy took into account the recent developments in the Rain Country, such as the hospital that was completed ahead of schedule and the purchase of some medical equipment.
Of course, the iconic casino almost makes it clear who is coming.
There are strict regulations on the construction of some entertainment venues in the reform of the Rain Kingdom. Noah has always been very averse to places like casinos.
There are plans just to maintain the attraction, and additional standards are set to prohibit citizens of the Rain Country from entering.
But some time ago, the issue was suddenly raised to a higher level, and the answer became clear.
