Is this Konoha?
Looking at the busy construction site all around and the energetic people, I came to Konoha's Samurai Cloud Mountain for the first time and was quite shocked.
In the past, Yunshan's activities were basically concentrated in the towns under the rule of the master's family and the surrounding villages.
He originally thought that the town ruled by Lord Takeyama was already one of the most prosperous cities in the Fire Country, but when he came to Konoha, he realized how short his vision was.
In the construction site nearby, there is a three-meter-tall humanoid mecha carrying a huge piece of wood.
This is an industrial mecha recently launched by the Bandai Chamber of Commerce. It can be controlled by a ninja and can easily dig roads, dig mountains, and move various heavy objects.
On the street in the distance ahead, there were young children gathered together, huddled against the street wall, communicating, and playing unknown card games.
Yunshan only heard an exclamation, Golden Legend!
Walking all the way towards the central area of Konoha, Yunshan's mood gradually changed from shock to numbness.
Compared to life in Konoha, Lord Takeyama's town is simply an era behind.
"Don't look around, let's complete our mission first." He retracted his gaze and reminded the men beside him whose attention was attracted by the woman. Yunshan put on a serious expression.
Walking to the open space in front of the Hokage Building, Yunshan, who had prepared a report when entering the village, saw a Konoha ninja wearing a vest walking towards him with a smile.
"You must be the samurai of Takayama City! You have worked hard all the way here." Konoha was very happy to see nobles like Yunshan and the Takamoto clan behind him who knew the general situation.
"I, Takamoto Yunshan, pay my respects to the ninja of Konoha." As he spoke, Yunshan was about to salute the Konoha ninja in front of him.
The person in charge of this reception is Nara Shikaku. As Kizaru's permanent secretary, he focuses on cultivating talents. He has now taken over many middle- and high-level affairs of the village.
The Takamoto clan arranged for their samurai to escort the anti-Konoha thieves, which was barely considered an intermediate mission. If coupled with the follow-up publicity, it would be considered a high-level mission.
Nara Shikaku quickly stretched out his hand, stopped Takamoto Yunshan from saluting, and said with a smile: "In the Kingdom of Light, there are no adults, we are all equal! You escorted the prisoners to Konoha this time, and you have done a lot of work all the way. , no need to salute."
A trace of surprise flashed across Yunshan's face. He didn't expect the representative of Konoha to be so kind.
Yunshan, who has dealt with many noble officials, knows clearly what is for show and what is from the heart. This representative of Konoha is friendly from the bottom of his heart, without any trace of arrogance or condescension.
"Leave these prisoners to us! I'll take you to your residence to rest for a while."
"yes."
After the exchange, Yunshan handed over the 35 prisoners escorted to the ninjas of Konoha, and he took his men and followed the ninjas of Konoha to the resting place.
------------------
"These remaining nobles have all turned into turtles." Sitting on the armchair, Kizaru put his slender legs on the desk and held a document sent by the secretariat in his hand.
"Those stubborn nobles are almost dead. Danzo's roots are doing well." Hearing Kizaru's words, Tobirama raised his head.
"The leader of the Takamoto clan, in order to show his sincerity, even sent his own nephew. How cruel!" Turning to the last page of the document, Kizaru raised the corner of his mouth slightly as he looked at the information recorded on it.
"Those guys were shouting that they would cut you into pieces and wipe out the whole clan. Takamoto Takeyama must have been frightened." Thinking of the deeds of these prisoners, Tobirama instantly became happy.
How brave! Who gave these people the courage to dream of defeating Kizaru and killing him with a thousand swords?
"Death by a thousand cuts, it's really scary!" Kizaru said with a smile that turned slightly obscene.
"What do you want to do with these people?" Tobirama asked with concern.
"They actually want to cut me into pieces, why not let them experience it!" Kizaru said jokingly.
Knowing that Kizaru was most likely joking, Tobirama still instinctively advised: "This will not have a good impact."
"Oh ho ho! I'm joking! No matter how much these guys scold me, they can't hurt me a bit. Instead of killing them in vain, it's better to send them to the mine or laboratory. As for the deadline, Well... as long as it’s indefinite!”
"These are basically young people. Let's send them to the mines! They should be able to persist for many years." Tobirama suggested starting from the most efficient use of manpower.
"Then send it to the mine!" Kizaru agreed without any objection.
After writing down Kizaru's decision on paper, Tobirama asked the next question, "Do you want to receive the adopted son-in-law of Takamoto Takeyama?"
"Is that samurai named Unzan? He has quite a lot of talent. I heard that the Takamoto clan was the first among the nobles to surrender to us, and it was his suggestion." Kizaru turned the document in his hand up a page and looked at it. While saying.
"Shikaku told me that this samurai has also practiced chakra." Tobirama mentioned the key point, "We are currently short of manpower, and we can recruit such talents."
Understanding the meaning of Tobirama's words, Kizaru thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll treat him to a meal tonight!"
After saying that, Kizaru remembered something and added: "Follow the public account."
Looking at this junior who was both talented and carefree at the same time, Tobirama wanted to complain, the dividend you received from the Bandai Chamber of Commerce alone was more than one billion in a year, so you couldn't bear to pay for a meal?
"You can ask someone from the secretariat to arrange it yourself!" Tobirama was too lazy to worry about such a small matter.
Throwing the documents in his hand on the table, Kizaru pressed his entire upper body on the back of the chair, making the chair creak.
Kizaru put his feet down from the corner of the table, stretched and sat upright, "Grandpa Tobirama, how are the preparations for the founding ceremony of the country?"
"The process has been finalized. If nothing else happens, it will officially start on May 1st." Tobirama answered directly without thinking about it.
"That's good, thank you for your hard work." With a habitual expression of concern, Kizaru left the chair and stood up.
"Where are you going again?" Seeing Kizaru's posture, Tobirama knew that this guy was going to run away again.
"Let's go and see how the documentary goes. After the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China, this documentary will be released in theaters across the country."
Kizaru still attached great importance to this documentary that promoted himself, Konoha, and the idea of unity.
Now that the Kingdom of Light has just been established, there are still a large number of civilians on the vast land. They don't know that the people who manage them have changed from daimyo and nobles to Konoha led by Kizaru.
In order to shape his personal image, to promote the country and national ideas, and to gain his own conquest, Huang Yuan attaches great importance to publicity in the field of movies.
Considering that the number of theaters across the country is still very limited and only available in some towns, Kizaru has arranged for people from the secretariat to prepare for the formation of a large-scale screening team.
After the editing of the first documentary is completed, Huang Yuan will arrange for members of the projection team to take projection equipment and films to villages across the country to screen films and promote ideas.
Of course, Kizaru and Tobirama are also planning to achieve nationwide literacy.
