Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 300 The Truth of That Year

The mischievous kids in Sunagakure are growing up healthily, and so are the Konoha 11.

Several years have passed since the truce of the Third Shinobi World War—now most of the major ninja villages have recovered, including Kirigakure, which was the slowest to recover. With Yubi's help, Kirigakure has completed its renovation and reconstruction.

Next, the major ninja villages imitated the system and structure of Sunagakure, developing in accordance with the conditions of their own countries and villages.

In this regard, Konoha has made the fastest progress.

Although the ninja academy in Konoha has not changed much, some of the village's public facilities and institutions have been expanded in the same way as those in Sunagakure.

For example, hospitals and specialized schools that train people other than ninjas.

These things cannot be hidden by Sunagakure.

However, there are some aspects that other ninja villages can learn from, but there are also some resources that other ninja villages cannot obtain.

For example, the surge in population within the Land of Wind in recent years—the village of Sunagakure has maintained excellent secrecy regarding the drugs used to promote fertility and increase the birth rate.

Even though the pharmaceutical industry is now extremely mature, with various generic drugs emerging one after another, there are still some special drugs that are very difficult for other countries and villages to obtain samples of.

Following Konoha's imitation of Sunagakure's medicines, in recent years, many small countries and villages have begun to research and follow the path of imitation—because Sunagakure still earns the top profits in this industry.

It relies on some special drugs with extremely tight secrecy measures and not widely available on the market.

This made many forces realize that the pharmaceutical resources industry wasn't devoid of profit; rather, the key was to develop new drugs that others didn't have—in which case they could make a fortune, just like Sunagakure.

Therefore, many small countries and powers have also begun to invest in drug research and development.

This has also spawned a large counterfeit industry chain.

"The new system has now been implemented in each village—the effects of the last Shinobi World War have been largely eliminated. The development of the remaining ninja villages is now focused on preparing for potential future wars."

After finishing his meal, Yubi put down his chopsticks and pondered the current situation in the ninja world. He then said something to Yekura.

"With you here, our village will be fine."

Ye Cangdao.

"This has always been the prevailing sentiment in the ninja world," and peace cannot last too long.

It's always a cycle of fighting for a while, then resting for a while.

The current prosperity and tranquility of the ninja world are only temporary.

"Besides, the outbreak of the Ninja World War is also beneficial to the children of our village. They must experience the cruelty of war to grow and shoulder the future of Sunagakure. Otherwise, it's not good for them to always be protected by the village."

"We need to make them understand the reality and true nature of the ninja world, and why they are able to enjoy this situation right now—"

"Strength is the key."

"After all, that's how we grew up too."

Yekura added.

Don't let Yekura's current appearance and gentler personality fool you.

But when it comes to the topic of war, she immediately reverts to her usual assertive demeanor.

Yubi chuckled silently.

"I'll go check on the school; you should go home first."

Upon hearing about these children, Yubi felt a sudden urge to visit the ninja academy.

"Um."

After packing up the lunchboxes, Ye Cang leisurely left the office.

A short while later, Yubi and Yura arrived at the Ninja Academy.

At this moment, on the school's spacious training ground, students from many classes are exercising.

The ninja academy is now more than twice the size of what it used to be, so even though the number of children in the village with the potential to become ninjas has surged, it is still enough to ensure that the school's activities and teacher-student system can function normally.

Inside the venue, several classes were engaged in outdoor practice, and they were not from the same graduating class.

Some were older, while others had just entered the Ninja Academy.

Yubi and the other person stood far away outside the field, so as not to disturb the teachers and students.

The courses that the new ninja academy students are learning are clearly the most basic taijutsu and the skills of using ninja tools and hidden weapons, which do not involve chakra for the time being.

Even so, at a glance, you can see which children are more outstanding and which are more ordinary.

Some students still need their teachers to teach them how to use weapons like kunai and shuriken, but others can already use them skillfully.

Take Kimimaro, for example, with his white hair. Despite his small stature, he could accurately shoot his shuriken far away with incredible agility.

The targets were all on the red circles.

Another small figure skillfully swung the senbon in his hand, piercing all the targets that the teacher had thrown into the air.

There was another figure, whose physique didn't seem like that of a six-year-old child, carrying a heavy load that even an average adult might not be able to lift, running at high speed.

The world of ninjas is just that cruel.

Who has potential and who doesn't—that's predetermined from birth.

Compared to other children of the same age, Kimimaro and others have already far surpassed the starting line.

Kimimaro, Jugo, and Haku are all freshmen who just enrolled this year.

Of course, they weren't the only ones who performed exceptionally well in the lower grades—there were several other children who also achieved perfect scores.

"The Uchiha clan, huh—"

Yubi murmured.

It must be said that the bloodline of the Uchiha clan is indeed powerful.

Even if a child of this clan hasn't awakened their Sharingan and has poor aptitude, their talent as a ninja cannot be concealed.

Putting everything else aside, the feel of manipulating ninja tools and using hidden weapons is like something he was born with.

Although still a bit rusty, the skill level is quite good for someone of this age.

"How many Uchiha clan members are there in the village now?"

Yubi asked Yura, who was standing next to him.

"There are forty people in total—their descendants, the oldest being seven years old and the youngest just born this year."

Yura replied.

The "they" mentioned here naturally refers to Uchiha Himeki and the others who were brought back to Sunagakure by Yubi.

Yubi nodded.

From the initial five people to the current forty, they have basically maintained a rate of one child per year.

After a period of development, it has begun to take shape.

It didn't disappoint him.

The "childbearing" task has been completed.

"These children—"

Yubi narrowed her eyes, her gaze pointed: "From what I can see, everyone identifies themselves as belonging to Sunagakure, right?"

"Rest assured, Lord Kazekage, we are intentionally keeping them away from any information regarding the Uchiha clan of Konoha—moreover, we have a pact with Konoha, and their lineage migrated from Konoha normally. As for the truth of what happened back then—at least they won't know before they leave the village."

Yura said.

"It's okay—when they're a little older, if anyone asks, we can tell them the truth; there's no need to hide it."

Yubi chuckled softly.

"Yes."

Yura responded.

The Uchiha clan is about to be wiped out.

Regardless of the truth of what happened back then, Sunagakure did indeed preserve the bloodline of the Uchiha clan.

They were saved, in a way.

If you want to hate, hate Konoha!
