MTL - Escape From Konoha-v2 Chapter 31 stone soldier

In the office, Shiraishi holds a paper material in his hand.

This is what Kazuhime saw and felt in the Land of Fire and Konoha, all of which are presented in the thesis in detail.

Although in Shiraishi's view, this paper still has many shortcomings, but the more critical issues in the land of fire and Konoha are all written in the thesis by Kazuhime. Therefore, this small flaw, Shiraishi Also didn't care.

"I can see that you, Kazuhime, are very attentive to observe the various problems of the Kingdom of Fire and Konoha. From their beliefs to the institutional level, you are basically analyzing them. To be honest, it's a bit beyond my expectations."

Shiraishi put down the dissertation materials in his hand, which was good enough for a nine-year-old child.

Although it is a good thing to keep improving, Shiraishi also feels that there is no need to worry about this kind of thing.

"In other words, it's passed, right?"

Ichiki looked up and asked.

She really worked hard to make this paper. In the past two years, she has traveled the entire country of fire with the help of the channel of the country of ghosts. In addition, Konoha is also a key observation target.

In fact, there are many problems that do not need her to look for, and the land of fire and Konoha have already exposed the problem on their own initiative.

From Ichihi's point of view, this should be her habit of living in the country of ghosts, and she suddenly entered a country with a completely different system, ideology, and culture from the country of ghosts, and naturally she would soon discover those problems.

As far as the ninja system is concerned, in Ichihi's view, ninjas... From the Warring States period to the present, there has actually been no essential change.

In the past Warring States period, the way ninjas survived was to accept the employment of daimyo from various countries and help them to win the war.

Later, the head of the Qianshou clan, Qianshou Hasuma, changed the original method and advanced to the era of one country and one village, and established the first ninja village in the ninja world - Konoha.

Afterwards, it was imitated by various countries, and it also officially entered the fierce era of the five major countries competing for hegemony.

After the death of Senju Hashirama, this contradiction has deepened.

Fearing the power of Qianshou Zhujian, countries did not dare to do it, but as long as Qianshou Zhujian died, this suppressing force would naturally cease to exist.

Behind the seemingly peaceful, in fact, fundamental problems still exist.

That is the mercenary mode of ninjas, which is still the same as in the Warring States period, a group of mercenaries, rather than real soldiers belonging to a country.

It's better in Konoha. The ninjas occasionally work for the ordinary residents of the village for free, but once they are apart from Konoha Village, even the nearby villages need to pay for the help of the ninjas.

Killing the bandits also requires the residents of the Fire Country to hire ninjas at their own expense, and Konoha ninjas will not contribute their power for free.

On the surface, it was a fair deal...but this kind of deal, in Kazuhime's eyes, seemed very distorted.

Who pays for the military expenses of Ninja Village?

Noble?

No, it's not.

The military expenses of the Ninja Village are paid by the countless low-level laborers in the country of fire.

These low-level laborers have to pay a heavy tax every year, which is collected by the daimyo and the major nobles. After that, a part is distributed to the ninja village as a military fee for the ninja village to develop its military power.

Fundamentally, it is these low-level laborers who create the real wealth, not the daimyo, the nobles, and those ninjas.

Because those ninja villages do not engage in production, or rarely engage in production.

They still retain the traditional bad habits of taking people's money and people to eliminate disasters, and they are essentially no different from the bounty hunters in the underground black market.

In Ichiji's view, when the common people pay taxes, the state has the duty to protect them, instead of collecting money and adding unnecessary burdens to the common people.

Because the richer the people, the more tax revenue will increase, and the more tax revenue, the better the development of the country, which is a virtuous circle.

Kazuhime did not see these phenomena in the Land of Fire and Konoha.

The daimyo and the nobles withheld more than 90% of the country's wealth, and then allocated a small part to the ninja village to maintain the "contract" between them.

The Ninja Village, which has received development funds, will naturally not be okay to seek justice for the bottom laborers who create real wealth, and go against the daimyo and nobles.

In essence, Ninja Village is also thinking from the perspective of vested interests.

Holding the hard-earned money of the bottom-level workers, but not really serving the country's bottom-level personnel, this is not like a soldier in a country.

This is also why Kazuhime thinks that ninjas are not soldiers.

Konoha's ninjas are essentially mercenaries, living a life of taking people's money and people to eliminate disasters. Ninja Village is a symbol of a country's military power if it sounds better.

To call them soldiers is the greatest humiliation of soldiers.

If this drawback is eliminated from the beginning, the ninja world may not develop such a deformity. Unfortunately, the first generation of Hokage Senju, who established the era of one country and one village, did not realize the problem.

In other words, he simply does not have enough knowledge accumulation to support his thinking, how to build a country with a benign system.

Therefore, Yi Ji felt that the old man in his family is very powerful, and it is very important to popularize education and eliminate illiteracy.

"Of course, for you now, it is enough to be called excellent."

Shiraishi was not stingy with his praise.

Growth cannot be achieved overnight. Only by applying what you have learned can you better understand the pattern and see the road ahead.

In addition to these, Kazuhime also mentioned other things, but in general, the others are secondary issues.

"So, what do you think needs to be done to break this deadlock?"

"In what way? This kind of thing, old man, aren't you already acting?"

Kazuhime was quite disdainful of Shiraishi's form of knowingly asking.

It is nothing more than to push the times forward by means of war, and completely destroy and ravage the inherent dross.

The pattern of today's ninja world has long been solidified. The daimyo and nobles have considerable wealth, while the bottom laborers have no wealth. However, the wealth accumulated by the daimyo and nobles for generations was plundered from the lower ranks. Having plundered most of the world's wealth, they only maintained their status and authority as superiors, and did not fulfill their responsibilities.

The same is true of ninjas. Before they know it, they have become tools for daimyo and nobles to oppress the bottom.

As vested interests, they were enemies from the very beginning.

The gap between the systems, one day, the country of ghosts will not take action against the five major countries, and the five major countries will also extend war minions to the country of ghosts.

Rather than that, it is better to accumulate strength, preemptive strikes, and completely control the situation in one's own hands.

This can not only buy time, but also destroy the connection between the five major countries. The village of Wuyin is a perfect example.

"Really? It seems that you still remember what I told you about 'Xiao', and it didn't disappoint me."

Shiraishi smiled slightly.

The "Xiao" in his mouth is not the "Xiao" organization currently controlled by Nagato, but a patriotic organization that was spontaneously formed by many passionate youths from the Rain Country in the past to save the Rain Country.

They have no knowledge accumulation, no military and economic foundation, and they just rely on their blood to try their best to save their country and people.

From many years ago, Shiraishi expected that this organization would end in a bleak way.

The confusion and despair experienced by this organization are also recorded in the history books of the Oni Kingdom Ninja School, which can be said to be quite powerful negative teaching materials.

If Yiji can give such an answer, it is obvious that she also has this history in mind.

Akatsuki, led by Yuren Yahiko, is not so much a product of the war in the ninja world, but rather that the bottom has been oppressed for a long time, and naturally someone will speak for it.

When people cannot survive, there will naturally be resistance.

This is also the reason why the bandits are constantly in the territory of the five major countries.

The predecessors of these bandits were the bottom-level people who were squeezed to the extreme and could only survive in this way.

The eradication of bandits never relies on the violence of ninjas. If there is a problem in the system, using violence to solve it is just adding more resisters.

In this era, there are countless people who are not afraid of death, and they will be killed forever.

"Then rest at home for a while. After that, I will arrange for you to go to Kirigakura to study. I have already agreed with the fourth generation of Mizukage Yakura of Kirigakura, and you can study there with peace of mind."

Shiraishi said to Kazuhime.

Ichiki nodded.

The old-fashioned Konoha and the Country of Fire have already seen it. Next, she is going to see the Hidden Wu Village, which is close to the Country of Ghosts. This is an opportunity for change.

Moreover, Kiriyuki is the secret ally of the Ninja Village in the country of ghosts. She also used to strengthen the connection between the two parties, not only taking up the task of study and research.

Shiraishi put away Kazuhime's thesis materials, and was about to continue to say something when the instruments on the desk suddenly started working.

The white paper on which the words were written was swallowed out of it.

It's an urgent report.

Shiraishi glanced at the contents of the emergency report, and his face became serious.

"I wanted to talk to you about other things, but it seems that I don't have any extra time now. Yiji, don't walk around here, I'll go out for a few days and solve some troubles."

The content of the emergency report was very sudden. In the western coastal areas of the country of ghosts, the central mountains, and the southern forests, large-scale stone soldiers suddenly appeared, attacking the surrounding towns from different directions.

These stone statue soldiers even launched indiscriminate attacks on the surrounding countries towards areas outside the land of ghosts.

It is necessary to suppress this unrest before it becomes a big one.

As the mastermind behind the manipulation of these stone soldiers, Shiraishi naturally knew who they were. The monsters that have survived since ancient times, in the land of ghosts, only the sprites can do such a thing.

◎

shrine.

Only a few maids in witch costumes are waiting here, and Maitreya, the owner of the shrine, has long since disappeared.

Shiraishi also came to the shrine to know this.

Entering the side hall of the shrine, the ancient stone gate in the center of the circular altar has been opened.

The air in the side hall was also full of natural freshness, without the depression and dullness of the past, but Shiraishi was not happy about it.

This stone gate is an important tool to seal the soul of sprites.

The opening of the stone gate means that the sprite's soul is freed from its shackles.

The palm touched the open stone door.

Judging from the traces, it should have been a while ago that the sprite's soul broke free from its shackles.

The floor of the side hall, as well as the walls, have serious signs of wear and tear, with many cracks.

Apparently there was a battle going on here.

Unsurprisingly, it should be the scene of Maitreya Miko fighting with the sprite soul.

Since Maitreya Maitreya and the soul of the sphinx are not here, then there is only one place that Shiraishi can think of where the two of them can go—

Swamp country.

The soul and body of the sprite have always been sealed separately.

The soul is guarded by Maitreya Miko, while the body is sealed in an active volcano shrine in the land of swamps for isolation and disposal.

In order to be resurrected as a complete body, the sprite must obtain the body sealed in the volcano of the Numano country in order to restore full power.

And Maitreya Maitreya wants to stop the sprite, she must go to the land of the marsh, wait for the sprite to arrive, and seal it again.

After Shiraishi figured out these things, he quickly left the shrine quietly.

The order has been conveyed. In fact, in order to deal with the stone statue army that will appear sooner or later, there are actually ninja troops stationed in each urban area.

Although it is impossible to destroy these stone statue legions, there is no problem in preventing them from entering the town and causing damage.

The only problem is the sprites.

As long as the power of the sprites is still spreading, these stone statue legions will not stop attacking, and will continue to be produced and manufactured to attack towns where humans gather.

The sky above suddenly became gloomy.

One moment it was a clear sky, and the next moment it was covered with clouds.

Mighty and majestic stone soldiers showed themselves from the mountain road, holding huge stone blades with oppressive force, their eyes were red, and they took heavy steps. Every step they took caused the earth to shake.

At a glance, it seems like thousands of troops are galloping.

In the distance, a kunai shot from a distance, tied with a detonating talisman, and aimed at a stone soldier to launch an attack.

Ding!

Kunai was bounced off by the stone-like soldier's steel-like body, only sparks appeared, and then the detonating talisman burned, and the fire from the detonation instantly emerged, swallowing the surrounding stone soldiers.

When the firelight dissipated, the surface of several stone statue soldiers could not be said to be unscathed, but they only wore out some holes that did not hinder their movement. It is conceivable how solid the bodies of these stone statue soldiers were.

Body like steel, power like a giant elephant.

Such stone statue soldiers are not one or two, but a legion.

The formed military, even if the Ninja Legion competes head-on, will suffer heavy casualties.

The only thing that is fortunate is that these stone statue soldiers are cumbersome and have no wisdom to speak of, and they have no ability to automatically search for enemies. They can only rely on the magician to maintain their actions.

The fundamental way to solve these stone statue soldiers is to find the magician who controls them behind the scenes and release the control.

Ayane stood on the top of the mountain, playing with a kunai in her hand, and stared thoughtfully at the army of stone statues heading towards the town area of ​​the land of ghosts below.

These stone statue soldiers are invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire are invulnerable, even if they are detonating talismans, it is difficult to pose a fatal threat to them.

If the ninjas from the land of ghosts confront these stone soldiers head-on, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

"Lord Ayane, I brought the charms made by the nearby shrine."

A ghost country ninja rushed here in a hurry.

He held a wooden box in his arms and placed it on the ground.

The dozens of Ninjas of the Kingdom of Oni around them all focused their attention on the wooden box.

When it was opened, there were stacks of neatly cut spells in the wooden box.

These charms are made by priestesses from various shrines in the country of Oni.

Different from the explosive charms such as detonating charms, these charms can cause strong lethality to puppets such as stone statue soldiers who are indirectly affected by monsters.

Picking up a spell, Ayane rolled it around Kunai's handle, and without hesitation, fired it at a stone soldier in the mountain pass.

Ayane intends to personally test the power of these charms.

This time, Kunai was not bounced off by the stone statue soldier, but fell directly into the stone statue soldier's body.

The charm wrapped around the handle of Kunai quickly burned with blue sparks, engulfing the entire body of the stone soldier.

When the blue sparks faded from the stone statue soldiers, only a pile of broken stones remained on the ground.

This scene surprised many ninjas in the land of ghosts, who did not expect such a spell to be so powerful.

The stone statue soldiers who can't even break through the explosive talismans, and these talisman papers that seem to have no strong destructive power, can disintegrate the stone statue soldiers' bodies from the inside, turning them into useless stones scattered around.

Under the observation of Ayane's white eyes, he could clearly see the internal conditions of the stone soldier.

The blue sparks burning on the talisman paper erased the purple-black Chuck from the stone soldier's body without a trace.

Those purple-black chakras are the formation techniques that control the stone soldiers.

As long as these purple-black chakras are erased, the stone soldier will be a pile of useless stones.

Seeing the power of the talisman, Ayane nodded and said to the ninja of the country of ghosts beside her, "I'll leave it to you here, and I'll deal with the magician."

"Look at us, there's no problem now."

The Ninjas of the Kingdom of Oni are full of confidence.

With these rune papers, the threat of the stone statue soldiers is greatly reduced.

At this moment, the blood-red sword light spread from a distant place, fell from the sky, and slashed into the narrow mountain road, causing a loud bang.

A large number of stone statue soldiers rolled over in the air, their bodies and the stone blades in their hands were torn apart, and the battle was almost a one-sided slaughter.

Then, a fire like the ocean roared through the mountain road.

Most of the stone statue soldiers walking forward were affected, and were burned red by the scorching flames, and the surface of the body cracked.

The ground and the mountain roads on both sides left scorched black marks like turbidity, braving the terrifying high temperature that bends the air.

Hundreds of gargoyle soldiers who had troubled the ninjas in the country of Oni were easily eliminated.

The speed was so fast that none of them could react.

Ayane also sighed and smiled helplessly: "It seems that you are not needed here, you can go elsewhere to eliminate the stone soldiers, be careful not to damage the town, otherwise the reconstruction work will be very troublesome."

"Yes."

Now that the stone statue soldiers here have been solved, they don't need to do it themselves.

Afterwards, they disappeared one by one from the spot and turned to other places to destroy the stone soldiers.

Liuli didn't know when it appeared here, looking at the mountain road below, the hot **** that turned into a high-temperature steamer, her eyes became the shape of three-goose jade writing round eyes, her eyes were calm and indifferent.

"It's too slow. An opponent of this level would waste so much time."

Ayane turned to look at her: "No way, unlike you, I'm not very good at dealing with a large number of enemies."

This sentence is not wrong, her soft fist is more suitable for single-point breakthrough.

Even if it is a large area of ​​destruction soft boxing - Shenkong strike, in fact, the essence is a dangerous move to kill the enemy.

And it will consume a lot of chakra, so it must be used with caution.

Lily is different.

Although these stone soldiers are hard and their strength is comparable to that of giant elephants, they move slowly and do not know how to work around this. They march through the narrow mountain roads and press into the town. Good live target.

Even a body as hard as steel can't resist Susanoo's blade, nor can it block the high-temperature fire escape that is fused with the immortal chakra, which can dissolve steel.

"The national border has been blocked. Next, we just need to deal with the monsters who control these stone soldiers behind the scenes."

"The country of swamps? According to the news I got not long ago, Shiraishi-kun has already taken a step forward, and we have to leave sooner than we do here."

These stone statue soldiers are not difficult opponents for a ninja of her strength, at most they are a little troublesome to do.

The real key lies in the monster sprite. If the sprite cannot be sealed, no matter how many stone statue soldiers are dealt with, it will not help.

The country of Swamp is located in the middle of the country of ghosts and the country of seclusion. It is a small country that occupies an extremely small section on the map of the ninja world.

The body of the monster sprite was sealed in a volcanic shrine in the country of Numah.

In order to fully revive himself, sprite will definitely go to the volcanic shrine in the country of Numano.

These stone statue soldiers seem to be attacking fiercely and with great momentum, but they are just smoke bombs thrown by sprites, and they are just a means of making noise.

Ayane and Liuli were about to leave when suddenly, in the mountain road that was still hot below, a scarlet evil light lit up.

A stone blade pierced the air, and without any warning, flew towards the back of Ayane's head.

click!

The stone blade slammed into the back of Ayane's head, cracked instantly, and shattered into pieces that scattered like flowers scattered by a goddess.

The scarlet evil eyes saw this scene, and his faith was shaken all of a sudden.

Could this woman's head be made of diamonds?

Such a question inevitably arises.

Not only did he fail to leave a wound in the back of the opponent's head, but instead, it shattered the hard stone blade that was projected.

Ayane turned around casually and looked down.

A half-disabled stone soldier stood there stubbornly, with nothing in his hand.

The stone blade that was projected at Ayane was its final attack.

"A sprite?"

Stone statue soldiers have no wisdom, UU reading www.uukanshu. com only has the most basic action ability, and the action module is very rigid.

A sneak attack is not like the spontaneous behavior of a stone soldier at all.

"…interesting…"

Such words came from the mouth of the half-remained stone statue soldier. The scarlet blood light in his eyes suddenly turned black. The stone statue soldier stood there like a sculpture, motionless and let the high temperature in the mountain road bake.

"Is your head okay? It shouldn't affect the next battle, right?"

Lucy asked.

Ayane waved her hand and replied: "It's okay, I feel like I was bitten by a mosquito. There is absolutely no need to hide from an attack of this magnitude. Let's go, go to the country of Swamp and join Shiraishi-kun. I have been staying at home for the past two years. I can’t go anywhere, so now I can just move around a bit.”

Ruri nodded, and then disappeared in place with Ayane using the instant body technique.
