Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit

Chapter 106 Konoha’s 25th Year and the Chunin Examination

In the 25th year of Konoha, after Konoha celebrated the New Year, Senju Tobirama sent Yua's name to the Fire Nation Daimyo.

Although the final decision-making power still lies with Konoha, notification is still necessary.

After all, if nothing else, Konoha Village is located in the middle of the Country of Fire. In the hinterland of the Country of Fire, such a large country gives you its territory as a strategic capital, although Konoha also gives it to the Fire Country. The country brought force to protect both sides, and the cooperative relationship was an equal one. However, it was precisely because of this that Senju Tobirama sent Yuya's matter to the Daming Mansion of the Fire Country.

As for whether it will be rejected...

To be honest, Senju Tobirama never thought about this possibility.

The Fire Nation, who has come from the war years, knows very well what Konoha Village can bring to them.

Especially Senju Tobirama is Senju Hashirama's younger brother, and Senju Hashirama...

This is a man of God who can force the entire Naruto world to make changes.

Well, a god-man in a literal sense.

Not to mention that Konoha has been at war with Kumogakure Village in recent years.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the Daming Palace to reject the nomination given by Senju Tobirama.

Of course, despite this, Daming Mansion also has power that belongs to them.

They can also put forward names in every selection of Konoha Hokage.

And unlike Konoha, which can only nominate one person, the Daming Mansion has the right to nominate two people.

Although the Hokage candidate proposed by Konoha Village is basically a sure thing, giving the Daming Palace two places can be regarded as giving the other party some face.

Daming Mansion did propose two names this time.

Mito Kabuto and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The reason they really dare to nominate is that Senju Hashirama is dead, and they want to see if Konoha is still under their control.

In the past few years of war, Konoha, instead of weakening, has become stronger, which gave some people in the Daming Mansion a bad feeling.

They were afraid that Konoha would eventually choose independence.

In fact, Yuya and Senju Tobirama discussed this issue, and finally came to the conclusion that Konoha cannot be independent.

At least not now.

Apart from anything else, once Konoha chooses to be independent, the Fire Nation, which was originally a cooperative party, will immediately become a hostile party. At that time, maybe it will join forces with other ninja villages to fight Konoha.

The independent Konoha Village has no strategic depth. When a war is fought, it must win and cannot accept a single defeat.

Compared with the possible impact after independence, it is acceptable for Senju Tobirama to be slightly hampered by the Kingdom of Fire.

Besides, the Fire Country allocates billions of taels of money to Konoha every year. Although this amount of money is just that to Yuya, it is better than nothing.

If half of these billions are used to distribute dividends to these families in Konoha, there is still half left. Then rounding up, the annual profits of Konoha Village can be invested in the development of the next year.

This is really great.

……

Konoha 25 years.

The villagers of Konoha discovered that the boy who had set up a platform a few years ago to express the hope that the villagers of Konoha Village could donate money and materials appeared in their field of vision.

Compared with the youthful appearance of a few years ago, Yuya, who is now 18 years old, is not only taller, but his face has also changed from youthful to youthful that is unique to just adulthood.

Coupled with the rumors that Yuya has always been in Konoha Village...

Well, it's not a rumor, Konoha is what it is today because of Yuya.

Yuya has always been mysterious in Konoha Village.

Now, Youya, who has been rumored for a long time, has finally appeared, and many people are curious about what Youya will bring.

In fact, Yuya didn't do anything false. He just publicly stated that Konoha will conduct a wave of chuunin exams this year. By then, ninjas from the four countries of wind, water, thunder, and earth will come. Our Konoha Village will definitely come by then. We must show the style of Konoha, and don't let others look down on me, Konoha. Every move everyone makes at that time will represent our Konoha.

After that, Yuya emphasized that people would come to Kumogakure Village at that time. Although he knew that many people in Konoha Village would be unhappy with Kumogakure Village, this was Konoha's public appearance to the world. I hope everyone will come. time to be restrained. Although Youya knew that even if he said so much, someone would definitely make trouble, it was definitely better to say it than not to say it.

And when envoys from other countries came to Konoha at the end of January, something went wrong as Yuya expected.

It's nothing like other countries, but when the envoy from Kumoyin Village came to Konoha, they were thrown rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves...

Youya smiled and shook his head while looking at the report.

What can he do?

We can only ask the people of Cloud Hidden Village first how they react. They won't take action against the Konoha villagers.

Fortunately, Nara Shikaya told Yuya that the messenger from Kumogakure was very restrained.

Youya thought for a moment, then packed up his things and went to find the envoy from Yunyin Village in person to apologize.

At the same time, Nara Shikama also arranged for someone to take a photo, which was published on the front page of the newspaper the next day.

This incident has just passed, but the impact is definitely still there.

If nothing else, every household must know Youya's name.

As for Yuya's response, the ninjas were fine with it, but the villagers were the first to get angry.

……

"Yuya, what is he doing!" Tsunade held the newspaper in her hand with an angry look on her face.

Jiraiya and Kouchimaru were also reading relevant newspapers.

"How could he surrender to those bastards in Hidden Cloud Village!" Tsunade was furious.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru looked at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

They didn't feel that this decision made by Youya was too outrageous.

Throwing rotten eggs or rotten vegetable leaves at others is really a slap in the face.

After all, the other party also represents Yunyin Village of the Kingdom of Thunder, so it is indeed a bit excessive to be treated like this.

And Yuya apologized in the past. To be honest, just because the person who apologized was Yuya, people like Jiraiya and Orochimaru who didn't understand politics knew that there should be meaning in it.

Otherwise, why would it be Youya who apologized? Sarutobi, where are the Shimura people? Why didn't they do this?

The representative of Konoha Village who was face to face with the Kumogakure Village delegation represented the entire Konoha...

But it is definitely impossible for them to say such words.

"Tsunade! Jiraiya! Come here quickly!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved to them from a distance while holding a pot of roasted sweet potatoes.

Jiraiya and Kouchimaru's eyes lit up.

I didn’t think roasted sweet potatoes were delicious before, because when I was a kid, I couldn’t eat enough, so I had to rely on roasted sweet potatoes to satisfy my hunger. Many times, they even ate raw sweet potatoes.

But now that I don’t have to worry about eating or drinking, roasted sweet potatoes feel inexplicably delicious.

Especially when it is burned in a stove made of firewood ash, it is really unique.

It's a pity that now that life is getting better, not many people are willing to grow roasted sweet potatoes (it's not profitable), and whether they can eat it really depends on their appearance.

Of course Tsunade also liked food. She put away the newspaper, muttered a curse word, and then skipped off to find Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Against this background, this year's trade cooperation between Konoha Village and other villages has come to an end.

Later, in May, people from other villages came to Konoha Village with their children who were participating in Konoha's Chunin Examination.

The first chunin exam...

In the summer of Konoha's 25th year, it was officially released.
