Escape From Konoha

"Is this the land of ghosts?"

In Tsunade's impression, the country of ghosts is just a neutral country in a secluded place in the ninja world. Its territory is not enough, but it is more than lower. Among the small countries, the territory is considered to be of an upper-middle level.

But because it is a neutral country, this is one of the few pure places in the Ninja world.

In Konoha's records, it has a similar meaning.

Peaceful, but I didn't have much presence in the ninja world before.

To say that it is different from the countries in the ninja world, this is a country without a name.

The daimyo and aristocracy have existed for thousands of years and are still being followed today.

A country with no daimyo jurisdiction, like the country of ghosts, can be said to be a maverick in the ninja world.

And the root of all this lies in the past shrine maidens of the land of ghosts.

According to legend, every witch leader in the land of ghosts has the mysterious power to suppress monsters and predict the future.

Monster? From Tsunade's point of view, it might be an existence similar to a tailed beast.

After all, tailed beasts are also called monsters by the world.

The monsters in the land of ghosts must be similar to tailed beasts.

The so-called suppression of monsters by the witches of the land of ghosts should be to seal the monsters in the body, and become a sealing method similar to the human pillar force.

However, after coming to the land of the land of ghosts, Tsunade learned that the records about the land of ghosts in Konoha should be completely updated.

With the road extending in all directions, there is an endless stream of business travelers.

Even civilians walking on the road can wear bright and clean clothes.

Naturally, this is nothing in Konoha, but looking at the whole country of fire, most of the commoners are wearing coarse clothes, their faces are sallow, their taxes are very heavy, and their faces are mostly lifeless and lacking vitality. And once a place becomes rich, it will be attacked by bandits. Even if people continue to entrust tasks to Konoha, the task of destroying bandits will appear thirty or fifty times a year in Konoha.

The country of ghosts is different. The towns and towns here are well planned, with many shops, and the residential and commercial areas are neatly arranged, giving people a feeling of pleasing to the eye.

The most important thing is that every township has guards, armed with sophisticated weapons, strong physique and full of energy. Obviously, they have undergone militarization training, not a guard agency that is pulled up at will.

There is no shortage of important institutions that are beneficial to people's livelihood, such as schools and medical care.

In terms of resources, it cannot be compared with Konoha, but the integrity of the organization, compared with Konoha, does not seem to be inferior.

But this is just a township, not a city in a country of ghosts, nor a capital.

Even the towns and villages, those more prosperous cities, Tsunade can't imagine what the scene will be.

"Sir Tsunade, the food here is delicious. Should I buy some more and take it with me? It's still a long way to Ziyuan City."

Mute, who followed Tsunade, was holding the takoyaki bought from the roadside and eating it beautifully.

She is already a girl's mute, and her appearance is long. She has followed Tsunade to learn medical ninjutsu over the years. It can be said that she has mastered the true teachings of Tsunade. Among the many medical ninjas in Konoha, few can surpass her.

This time Tsunade went out to Konoha on business, and she was the only entourage.

Originally, Minato wanted to send two more guards to follow him, but Tsunade refused.

"You can eat it by yourself."

Tsunade's focus is not on the delicious snacks of the country of ghosts, but also on the gorgeous luxury goods.

Her original purpose was to ask the witch of the land of ghosts to ask about the prophecy.

In addition, I want to visit the Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company in the Kingdom of Oni, and I hope to verify my knowledge of medical ninjutsu, or I hope that the Kingdom of Oni will further cooperate with Konoha in this regard.

This desire became stronger after coming to the land of ghosts.

So much so that there is a serious look in his eyes.

This country is... strange and powerful.

But what is the specific strangeness? Compared with the country of fire, what is the difference in essence, Tsunade couldn't understand for a while.

It can only be said that a country without a big name is just so maverick.

"What's on your mind, Tsunade-sama?"

Silence slows down the action of eating.

"No, I'm just surprised that the system here is so perfect."

"Really? Isn't this normal? Konoha is more prosperous than here."

Mute didn't find it strange.

Although this town is good, it is still a lot worse than Konoha.

Whether it is size or population, it is far less prosperous than Konoha.

Tsunade was a little speechless and smiled bitterly.

Over the years, she has always brought Mute by her side, and she has not gone out to perform a few tasks. She is only interested in teaching her medical ninjutsu, but has forgotten the most important social practice.

Comparing the prosperous Konoha Village in the country of fire with a little-known town in the country of ghosts, Konoha has already lost.

"How about a comparison with the towns in the Land of Fire?"

"Uh……"

Mute is not stupid, and he quickly thought of the key.

The prosperous areas of the country of fire are limited to a few places, and wood is only one of them.

And along the way in the country of ghosts, no matter any area, there are no bandits running rampant, and the streets are occasionally chaotic, and soon guards come to stop them and suppress the offenders.

"Remember when we entered the land of ghosts?"

"Remember."

Silent nodded.

The gates into the country of ghosts are strictly controlled by soldiers.

Extremely harsh inspections are carried out on the people who come and go.

If there is no clean identification, it will be blocked and impassable.

She and Tsunade also went through a series of strict examinations before they were allowed to enter. They were also stuffed with two short-term residence permits, valid for one month.

After more than a month, they will be 'invited' to leave the country.

If you want to continue to stay in the country of ghosts, you must go to the corresponding official agency to apply for a long-term residence permit.

If you enter illegally, or do not leave after the expiration date, special personnel will come to invite you to drink tea.

Residence, entry and exit are all strictly managed.

This also means that there will be no unidentified people in the land of ghosts.

A wanted ninja who defected could not survive in such a country.

"Let's go."

"Oh."

I don't know what Tsunade was thinking, Mute hugged a lot of snacks and snacks, and trotted after him.

◎

It will take half a day to arrive at Ziyuan City by carriage.

As the capital of the land of ghosts, it is naturally more prosperous and majestic than the towns encountered on Tsunade Road.

The planning of the entire city, the arrangement of buildings and greenery are in an orderly manner, without the slightest clutter, and it looks clear at a glance.

Unlike Tsunade’s attention, Mute was completely attracted by the food on the roadside and the tall and tidy buildings, making him dizzying.

Tsunade took a deep breath.

I underestimate this country a bit.

No, it should be said that all countries underestimate the country of ghosts.

Tsunade has never been to the country of ghosts before, and his knowledge of the country of ghosts is limited to the things in books and some bits and pieces of information obtained in recent years.

With the rise of Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company, people's impression of the land of ghosts is no longer limited to the word witch, and the pharmaceutical industry is developed.

Now, it's not just that.

In other aspects of development, the country of ghosts is not far behind, as evidenced by those big businessmen who come and go.

Due to some personal reasons, Tsunade has very close contacts with businessmen from all over the world. Many stores in Ziyuan City are marked with the famous brands of large international companies. Behind these companies, those well-known big businessmen are behind the scenes.

Businessmen are mercenary. If they can't get any real benefits in the country of ghosts, it will be extremely difficult for them to stay in the country of ghosts.

Now they are gathered in the country of ghosts, there is only one reason, the country of ghosts can bring them huge benefits, so they have to come here and cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce in the country of ghosts.

Therefore, Tsunade is not surprised that the country of Oni will surpass the Country of Fire one day economically.

Perhaps, the gross domestic product of the land of ghosts in recent years has been very close to that of the land of fire.

Through the third Ninja World War, Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. expanded its branches aggressively, and its brand was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. A large amount of funds were collected from various countries in the Ninja World. Even Konoha, which has a relatively complete medical structure, has become When I become lazy, I have to buy a lot of medicines from Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company every year.

This is the case with Konoha, which has a relatively complete medical structure, not to mention the rest of the Shinobi village. I am afraid that inertia is more serious than Konoha.

If the Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company stopped supplying medicines one day, just thinking about the consequences, Tsunade broke into a cold sweat behind her back.

Fortunately, the Kingdom of Ghosts is a neutral country, not a member of the Five Great Powers.

It is better for such a country to remain neutral. Tsunade thought secretly.

From a personal standpoint, she appreciates the country's various unrestrained policies, but she is a Konoha ninja, and the whole country of fire is standing behind her.

If the country of ghosts continues to develop at such a terrifying speed, sooner or later, it will affect the country of fire, affect the gross domestic product of the country of fire, and then affect the development of Konoha.

Once the GDP of the Fire Country decreases, the funds supplied to Konoha will decrease, which is something Tsunade does not want to see.

However, how to report this matter to Konoha, Tsunade thinks it is better to report it to the newly appointed Hokage after seeing the Miko.

Tsunade found a foreign official from the Kingdom of Oni who met him in Shion Castle.

Tsunade came to the country of ghosts this time, with an official document from Konoha, and it was a diplomatic matter.

If you don't do this, Tsunade will never be able to see the witch in the land of ghosts herself.

The witch of the land of ghosts is no less noble than the daimyo of a country, and she is the king of a country.

The process of meeting the witch is very complicated.

Tsunade is not a native of the country of ghosts, so if you want to see the witch herself, you can only see the other person's mood.

Even if the other party didn't want to meet him, Tsunade couldn't find a reason to refute it.

With Konoha's official documents, you don't need so many troubles.

"Your Excellency Tsunade, I'm very sorry, His Highness Maitreya is temporarily unable to meet anyone."

The diplomat of the country of Oni handed back Konoha's documents and replied to Tsunade with an apologetic expression.

"What does this mean? Why do you say that you can't see anyone for the time being?"

Tsunade was taken aback.

"His Royal Highness Maitreya has evacuated the maids and guards from the shrine palace since May of the previous year, and issued an order that for the next nineteen months, no one will be allowed to approach the shrine where she is."

"Did something happen?"

"People in the military might know that, after all, as soon as the order is issued, the army will surround the shrine and prohibit anyone from entering. But in my opinion, it should be related to monsters. The disaster of monsters that His Highness Maitreya does not want will spread to ordinary people. "

The diplomat replied.

Monster? Tsunade frowned.

Is it a monster that has been passed down from generation to generation in the land of ghosts?

In Konoha's books, it is indeed recorded that every few decades in the land of ghosts, there will be disasters caused by monsters, and every disaster is sealed by the witch herself.

Could it be said that the kingdom of ghosts has reached the moment of a monster disaster once again in decades?

It doesn't seem like the time has come. Tsunade sighed inwardly.

"If Your Excellency Tsunade has anything important to discuss with His Highness Maitreya, please come back after the ban is lifted by His Highness Maitreya in a few months."

"Is that so. However, I heard that the country of ghosts is now ruled by the military. Is there such a thing?"

"I don't know much about this, but the actions of the military have always been dictated by His Highness Maitreya."

The diplomat answered without leaking.

"Then can I go visit?"

"This requires the advice of His Highness Maitreya. The military's will is determined by following His Highness Maitreya."

To put it simply, it means refusing Tsunade to investigate the military of the country of ghosts.

As for the military's will, whether it is determined by the witch Maitreya, Tsunade is not an insider of the country of ghosts, and naturally he does not understand.

It's just that many places in this country reveal a mysterious sense of eccentricity.

Tsunade wanted to collect more information about this country.

She already knows about the prosperity and benefit system of the country of ghosts.

The most important remaining military forces need to be carefully understood.

But at present, the people of the country of ghosts will not let her use the official identity of Konoha to investigate the truth of the military.

That's right, how could a country's military power be easily known to outsiders.

At present, I don't know more about this country, so I'll investigate it slowly in the future. Anyway, neutral countries are destined to be unable to become enemies of the Fire Nation.

"Let's go, mute."

After leaving the residence of the diplomat, Tsunade said something to Mute.

"Don't you go to Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company, Tsunade-sama?"

"No."

It is no longer necessary.

The Kingdom of Ghosts has strict scrutiny on all aspects, and the technical protection of Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company is even more stringent. So far, there has been no theft, which shows the protection power there and the degree of technical preservation of Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company by the Kingdom of Ghosts.

Otherwise, the savages in Yunyin Village would not have been inactive until now.

It may have been tested early, but the people who sent it have probably evaporated from the world.

"Are we going to another country next, Tsunade-sama?"

"Well, before you go to another country, you need to go somewhere."

Tsunade smiled.

"Where?"

"The headquarters of the Ziyuan Flower Chamber of Commerce."

"Shiyuan Flower Merchant Association? What are you going to do there?"

Mute looked bewildered.

There is a place where businessmen only go when they talk about work. Tsunade is not interested in doing business. Going to the headquarters of the Shion Flower Merchant Association is of little significance in Mute's view.

"As one of the few super-large chambers of commerce in the Ninja world, I have studied the Ziyuan Flower Chamber of Commerce, especially in terms of loans. The business chain is complete, the interest is not high, and it has an excellent reputation in the industry."

"Loan, loan!? Tsunade-sama, don't you think..."

Mute suddenly thought of something, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

"That's right!" Tsunade showed a brilliant smile on his face: "After the business is done, it's my turn for personal affairs. This is the top priority, mute, don't say something depressing at this time, otherwise I'll throw you back to Konoha."

"But then, why do you want to take out a loan? Mizumo-sama, didn't you give us 500,000 taels of public money?"

And what is the most important thing, in Mute's view, it is just gambling that is easy to teach bad children.

I really don't know where Tsunade-sama's bad habits came from. I really should teach the source of all evil.

Silent thought angrily.

"Cut, what is 500,000 taels enough? Throw a few dice and it's gone. That kid at Minato is really, he only paid me 500,000 taels. I will definitely chew his ears at Kushina in the future. "

Tsunade complained about himself on the street, caring for no one.

Mute's face was dumbfounded, she didn't know how to say Tsunade was good.

Now Konoha is in vain, and has not yet been buffered from the shadow of war. Where can there be so much money to squander.

Besides, 500,000 taels is not a lot. Usually they eat frugally, enough for them to travel for a long time.

◎

Tsunade left after less than a week in the country of ghosts.

Afterwards, Tsunade also wrote a letter, detailing what he saw and heard in the land of ghosts, and sent it back to Konoha through a secret channel.

Within a few days, Minato received a letter from Tsunade.

"The country of ghosts..."

Although Tsunade wrote a lot of opinions about the country of ghosts in the letter, Minato, who lacked sufficient knowledge, still didn't understand what Tsunade's focus was.

However, Minato could see that Tsunade attached great importance to the country of ghosts.

So, Watergate sent someone to find Lu Jiu.

The other party was from the Nara clan, with a flexible mind and a good grasp of the overall situation.

During the Third Ninja World War, and at the meeting, many refreshing strategies were put forward to reduce Konoha's losses.

Shikahisa picked up Tsunade's letter and quickly scanned it.

"How is it, Shikahisa? What do you think of Tsunade-sama's proposal?"

"Well...how to say, although I can't imagine the specific intention of Tsunade-sama, there are some areas that are worth learning from. For example, this kind of children's mental hospital can help children's physical and mental health and prevent children from being too traumatized. , going astray in the future.”

Lu Jiu gave a sharp answer.

At the same time, he also fell in love with the land of ghosts.

Children's psychiatry, there are medical ninjas as powerful as Tsunade in the country of ghosts, and they see the essence of things that many people have not noticed.

Those children who have not grown up are the real future of the country and the village.

It can be said that child psychiatry is very important to the profession of ninja.

"Is that so? Then I'll ask the daimyo for instructions."

Konoha's development funds all come from the daimyo and nobles of the country of fire. Without their assistance, Konoha's development cannot be said to be completely stagnant, but most industries will be stagnant.

For example, during the Second Ninja World War, the medical reform proposed by Tsunade would not have been possible without the support of Daimyo.

It just so happened that he also needed enough performance to stabilize his position and make more ninjas in the village trust his ability to govern.

"Wait, not now."

Lu Jiu interrupted.

"why?"

"Because the funds involved are too huge. Konoha currently has a lot of funds, because of the follow-up effects of the war, they are all invested in cultivating ninja strength and pensions, and there is not much development funds anymore."

"How much do you need?"

Minato paused for a moment and asked Shikajiu.

"The initial investment is the sum of Konoha's ten years of military spending."

Lu Jiu gave an almost hopeless figure.

Minato's hand trembled as he picked up the pen.

"so much?"

"To complete the restructuring mentioned by Tsunade-sama in the letter, the initial investment is only a lot more. As for the later stage, that is an astronomical figure. Moreover, money alone is not enough, and appropriate systems and professionals are needed. These Konoha are all No, it would be another huge expense."

Shikaku's face was heavy.

Konoha needs to cultivate and rest now, but now Konoha is struggling because of the influence of the war, how can he have any spare money to develop other industries.

"Neutral country, the country of ghosts, turns out to be so rich."

"It should be related to the previous war."

Kakashi thought about the answer for a while.

"War?"

"Yes. Within our Konoha, there are now six branches of Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company. The medicines are of excellent quality and a complete range of medicines. Whether it is medicines for ninjas or medicines for ordinary people, they have everything. Take breast enhancement. In terms of medicine and beauty medicine...ahem."

Lu Jiu gave Minato a look.

With the Ninja World War to open up the market, from military to civilian use, Shiyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company has completed all the layouts, thoroughly rooted in the Ninja World, and has become a giant in the pharmaceutical industry.

Even Konoha should be polite to Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company.

Minato smiled bitterly.

Indeed, the so-called breast enhancement and beauty drugs are not very attractive to men. However, for women, even many female ninjas in Konoha have become obsessed with this medicine, which is evident.

Body and face are the lifeblood of a woman.

In his family, Kushina bought several bottles of these high-end medicines to contribute to the construction and development of the land of ghosts.

And this is only Konoha, the other four Ninja villages, and other important towns in other countries are similar.

"I see. The restructuring will be discussed at the Shangnin meeting in a few years. The daimyo also needs to get consent."

After taking the seat of Hokage, Minato understood how heavy the burden on Hokage was, which was completely different from what he thought when he was a child.

Hokage doesn't just do whatever he wants, especially the pressure exerted by the daimyo, which can make Konoha unable to move an inch.

Moreover, the interior of Konoha is not calm now.

Although he had successfully restrained the movements of Gento and Danzo before, Minato knew that he and Sandai Mehizan had already torn their faces.

The recruitment of Anbu's personnel has not been effective for a long time.

There are still very few people who can use it.

Pig Ludie needs to stay by his side to guard against the counterattack of the three generations of Hokage, and the only thing that can be used is Kakashi.

Now he can't even solve the internal problems of Konoha. The various attractive restructuring policies mentioned in Tsunade Letter may not be officially implemented even after a few years.

Because dealing with the internal affairs of Konoha, it takes a long time to fight with Daimyo, which is more difficult than dealing with the chaos inside Konoha.

Watergate began to have a headache.

Seeing Minato's distress, Lu Jiu was about to speak to relieve himself when there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Minato packed up his mood and let the people knocking on the door come in.

A Chunin entered and presented a scroll.

"Lord Naruto, this is an urgent letter sent from the Snow Country."

"The Land of Snow? Where is the messenger?"

Watergate reacted~www.readwn.com~ was in the hospital for emergency treatment. When he came, he was covered in injuries. "

Chunin replied.

"Looks like something happened in the Snow Country."

Lukisa touched his chin and guessed.

Minato opened the scroll, and after reading the contents above, his face became solemn, and he said to the chunin:

"Call Kakashi Junin who is on vacation, I have an important task for him."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

That chunin went down respectfully.

"It seems that Kakashi's vacation is in vain again, and his injury has just recovered."

A smile appeared on Kazuya's face.

Minato sighed and looked at the view of Konoha outside the window.

"No way, there are too many restrictions on me, Kakashi is the only candidate."

"Indeed. But the country of snow is adjacent to the country of ghosts. After Kakashi completes the task, let him go to the country of ghosts to investigate. I am also curious about this country."

Hearing Lu Jiu's suggestion, Minato nodded, and he thought the same.
