"Your Highness Hayuki, I think we should talk somewhere else."
Kushina used the low-level water escape water bullet technique to extinguish the fire ignited nearby.
Although she has two hidden chakra attributes, yin and yang, and two visible chakra attributes, wind and water, her talent for ninjutsu is average, so except for the shadow clone technique, she has no ability for other advanced ninjutsu. Learned very little.
Kushina's main fighting methods are sealing techniques and the use of physical techniques combined with "Red Dragon Tribulation".
Of course, she still knows some simple ninjutsu, such as the low-level water escape. Based on her chakra amount, the power and scale are definitely one level higher than the ninjutsu itself.
"Yes...yes! Thank you, Lord Kushina." Fenghua Hayayuki looked at the dilapidated room and nodded repeatedly.
After experiencing drastic changes in a short period of time, his mood could not calm down for a while.
He did know that his younger brother Fenghua Nutao had always had the ambition to fight for hegemony, but he did not expect that Nutao would kill him and Xiaoxue. If Kushina hadn't taken action this time, not only he and Xiaoxue would die, but the entire Snow Country would also be destroyed. Toward the bottomless abyss.
Because the so-called treasures of the Kingdom of Snow are basically of no help to the war.
"Your Highness Koyuki, please come too." Kushina looked at Fenghua Koyuki beside her.
"Dog!"
Fenghua Xiaoxue was riding on Kyuubi's body, hugging its neck tightly and refusing to let go.
Damn human brat, wait until I find a chance... Kyuubi's eyes flashed fiercely, but when he saw Kushina's glance towards it, he immediately walked out of the room obediently.
The three of them and one fox walked towards the lower level of the palace, and met a samurai and a snow ninja on the way.
"Your Highness Hayuki, are you okay?!"
"I heard that assassins attacked the palace!"
"Isn't His Highness Nu Tao here to protect you? Where are the others?!"
Hearing the words of 'concern' from the samurai and snow ninjas, Fenghua Hayayuki frowned.
It seems that Nu Tao has bought everyone around him.
He originally thought that only a few people were rebelling with the angry waves, but now it seemed that the scale of the rebels was beyond his imagination. Why did these people have to embark on the path of war?
"Kushina, tell them..." Kyuubi communicated with Kushina through chakra.
"His Royal Highness Zaoxue was indeed assassinated, but His Highness Nu Tao fought hard against the assassin, and eventually died together with the assassin, falling from the top floor of the palace together. You guys, go and find the body of His Highness Nu Tao."
Kushina looked 'sad' and answered according to Kyuubi's reminder.
"What? How could Sir Nu Tao do this? Isn't he with Lord Bengxue and the others..."
The snow ninjas had expressions of disbelief on their faces, unable to believe what Kushina said, so much so that they almost spilled the beans.
"Yes, the assassins are too strong. His Highness Nu Tao and His Excellency Beng Xue are both dead." Kushina added: "You'd better search carefully to see if there are other assassins hiding in the palace."
"this......"
The samurai and snow ninjas were stunned.
His Highness Nu Tao and Leader Beng Xue obviously went to kill His Highness Zaoxue, how could they die together with the assassin to protect him.
Then there is only one possibility...
The operation failed?
Feeling the powerful chakra emanating from Kushina's body, the snow ninjas did not dare to take action.
"Get ready. His Highness Zaoyue will convene everyone to discuss matters in the main hall later."
Kushina continued.
Fenghua Zaoyue nodded, without saying a word the whole time, and followed Kushina down to the bottom floor of the palace, and came to the next door to Bai Yu's laboratory.
After a while, Kushina informed Bai Yu and came to the next room.
When Bai Yu walked into the room, the first thing he noticed was the mini Kyuubi with Fenghua Koyuki riding on his head.
Poof!
[Jiu Lama, are you today too? ] Bai Yu teased Kyuubi through chakra.
Kyuubi said angrily: [Damn it, think of a way to get this kid away! 】
[Then you play with me for a while and I will get her away] Bai Yu said with a smile.
【roll! 】Kyuubi blocked Bai Yu's chakra.
You scumbag fox, I would rather be played by a child than let him play with it... Bai Yu complained in his heart and looked at Fenghua Hayayuki, the great name of Snow Country, who looked uneasy.
"Your Highness Zaoyue, please don't be nervous. Since we are here to help you, we don't have any ill intentions. We just want to cooperate with you."
"Cooperation?" Fenghua Zaoxue was stunned when he heard the words, but when he heard Bai Yu put forward the conditions, he felt relieved, which at least gave him peace of mind.
Bai Yu smiled and said: "You should know that we are ninjas of Konoha, and Kushina, who just saved you, was once the princess of the Uzumaki clan of the Uzumaki Country. Now that the Uzumaki Country has been destroyed, we want to rebuild the Uzumaki Country. . Before that, we need a hidden stronghold to accumulate strength."
"So you thought of the Land of Snow?"
"Yes, our original purpose was to establish an organization in the Country of Snow, gather the remnants of the Country of Whirlpool scattered throughout the ninja world, and wait until we have accumulated enough strength to establish a country in one fell swoop."
"If you want to re-establish a country, you need a strong military force. You know that I oppose the development of chakra armor in Snow Ninja Village and prohibit expansion. Why don't you cooperate with Nu Tao? If you help Nu Tao become a daimyo, he should be very willing to cooperate. You cooperated.”
Fenghua Zaoyue had completely calmed down at this time. He had basically made a decision in his mind, but he still wanted to ask clearly first.
"What Nu Tao wants is to dominate the ninja world. With all due respect, with the quality of the ninjas in the Snow Ninja Village, even if the technology of chakra armor is updated, they will be easily destroyed by any of the five major countries. I don't hate it. Ambitious people, but I hate people who don’t know themselves. What’s more, before we founded our country, what we needed was concealment.”
Bai Yu explained.
"Actually, you can kill me, and then support Xiaoxue to become a daimyo, so that the Snow Country will be completely under your control." Fenghua Hayayuki said: "Please forgive me for being frank, I just want to ask something Clearly, I completely agree with the matter of cooperation.”
"Since Your Highness Hayayuki said that we are cooperating, it will be mutually beneficial and win-win. There is no benefit in killing you. You have always been a respected name in the hearts of the people of Snow Country. To kill such a person, I There will be a feeling of guilt in my heart.”
Bai Yu said.
"I understand. You alone saved Xiaoxue and I. In order to repay your kindness, I will also agree to your conditions, but... I don't know how far you want to go, and whether you will give Xue country brings war."
The wind and flowers are as early as snow.
Bai Yu nodded: "It's very simple. We will help the Snow Country train ninjas and develop economy and technology at the same time. Chakra Armor is indeed a major invention and is worthy of in-depth research."
"This..." Fenghua Zaoxue's expression changed slightly. Isn't this the same as Fenghua Raging Tao's thoughts? Sooner or later, we will have to use the Kingdom of Snow to expand externally.
Bai Yu chuckled lightly: "Your Excellency Zaoxue, you must understand that we are doing this not only for ourselves, but also for the country of snow."
"For the country of snow?"
"Do you think this Ninja World War will end one day? It will definitely! But as long as the Ninja World is not unified, the war will not stop.
Sooner or later, a force will appear that will unify the ninja world.
By then, do you think the country of Snow will be spared due to its remote location? Will other countries not take action against the Snow Country because the Snow Country is indifferent to the world and does not expand externally?
Not expanding externally or actively invading other countries does not mean that the Kingdom of Snow does not need to develop its military.
There is no sword in your hand, and having a sword and not using it are two different things! "
"I... understand." Fenghua Zaoxue said solemnly. Maybe in his era, what Bai Yu said would not happen, but Xiaoxue is only 3 years old. Maybe he will be gone in thirty years. , but Xiaoxue has to face this situation.
Compared to her younger brother who was a rebel and careerist, Kazehana Sayaki chose to believe in his two saviors, Shiroha and Kushina.
"In this case, I wish us a happy cooperation. His Highness Hayesuki will one day feel lucky for today's wise choice."
Bai Yu stretched out his hand towards Fenghua Zaoxue.
The reason why he did not use extreme methods to directly kill Fenghua Xiaoxue, and then support Fenghua Xiaoxue to become a puppet daimyo, and indirectly control the Snow Country, was exactly what he said.
Yes, but not necessary.
Snow Country has ice and snow weather most of the year, with few warm days.
The domestic crop industry and per capita GDP are affected by weather, and the overall level is low.
However, the life of the citizens of Snow Country is quite prosperous because the tax rate is extremely low.
If Bai Yu wants to establish his own country with Kushina, even if it implements a military-political system, there is absolutely no need to kill the Daimyo of Snow Country and give a bad impression to the ninja world, let alone kill a Daimyo who is loved by the people. .
"As for the hexagonal crystal, I think as collaborators, we should have the right to know, right?" Bai Yu changed the topic and asked about the treasure of the Snow Country.
Fenghua Zaoyue nodded and explained: "The so-called treasure of Snow Country is actually a huge 'geothermal energy generator'.
The hexagonal crystal is the key, which can turn on the geothermal energy generator, release all the geothermal energy accumulated for many years, and melt the ice and snow accumulated all year round in the entire Snow Country in an instant.
In this way, the land suitable for planting and living will be greatly increased, and the population will increase accordingly.
Mineral mining will become easier, and the Snow Country's already developed heavy industry will accelerate its development.
But in this way, sooner or later it will attract the attention of big countries.
So all these years, I have never agreed to use the treasures left by my ancestors. "
"I see, this is indeed a huge treasure!" Bai Yu's eyes lit up. After staying in the Country of Snow for more than a year, he found that this country's heavy industry was indeed very developed, far ahead of other big countries.
There are railways between several major cities in the country, and trains can reach them directly. In addition, the manufacturing of chakra armor has also formed an industrial chain, but the scale is not large yet.
But as long as capital investment is increased, it will only be a matter of time before technological breakthroughs continue.
To develop heavy industry, technology and energy are issues that must be faced, and the Land of Snow has no shortage of technology.
If geothermal energy, which can melt all the ice and snow in an entire country in an instant, is used to develop heavy industry, the energy problem will be solved.
The science and technology tree in the Naruto world is very crooked, and ninja is a high-paying profession. If ordinary people cannot engage in politics and business, they may always struggle to make ends meet.
Electricity has been used in big cities. Although there are no mobile phones, computers, TVs and other electronic products are available. In some remote mountain villages, oil lamps may still be used for lighting.
Although ninjas are strong, they have high attack and low defense. The reaction speed of a strong Kage level person may be able to dodge a pistol, but that is not necessarily the case for a Jonin.
The world does not lack technology. What it lacks is the power to guide and support technological development and protect scientific research talents.
Bai Yu is willing to be a pioneer in guiding the industrial revolution in the Naruto world.
The Land of Snow is the frontier.
...
In the next period of time, Shiroha and Kushina put on the uniforms and masks of the 'Infinity Ring' organization and helped Fenghua Hayayuki completely quell the civil strife in the Land of Snow.
All the officials and ninjas of the Feng Hua Raging Tide faction were purged, and the entire Snow Kingdom regained peace.
The geothermal energy generator is not used to eliminate the accumulated ice and snow in the Snow Country, but is used as an energy source to develop heavy industry.
Before Bai Yu and Kushina returned to Konoha, they first went to Tian Country and secretly sent Korra and Naomi to Snow Country.
