Naruto: The Tavern Speech Begins to Make the Land of Rain Great

"Mio, it's time to go to school."

Nishimura put down his finance book and adjusted his glasses.

With the recent completion of Xiaoguang City, Watanabe Tetsu's demands for banking and monetary reforms are also imminent.

The thought of this gave Nishimura a headache.

Even if he had read every book on finance and economics in the entire ninja world, he still wouldn't dare say that he could definitely succeed in the reform.

The Land of Rain has a huge economic problem.

He looked at Mio and received a response from his beloved daughter.

"Okay!"

Mio Nishimura slung her schoolbag over her shoulder, looked up at her father, and then took Nishimura's hand.

"Dad, didn't you say there were no ninja schools in the Land of Rain?"

"Oh, it wasn't there before, but it is now."

Nishimura squatted down and patted his daughter's head.

He then gave her a light kiss on the forehead.

"But I don't want to go to school. I want to stay home with my dad."

"No, you can't. You'll meet lots of other kids your age at school, it'll be really interesting."

Nishimura smiled, his gentleness shining through at that moment.

"Did your father go to school?"

Mio's question made Nishimura's smile freeze, and he immediately changed the subject.

"After you finish school, Daddy will buy you some fun toys, okay?"

That's a deliberate attempt to change the subject.

Mio pursed her lips, then said.

"Fine! I want the Supreme Golden Flash Kunai Toy!"

Several black lines appeared on Nishimura's head.

Who knows why his daughter prefers kunai to cute dolls?

Perhaps his daughter was born to be a ninja.

He had previously been worried about his daughter's wishes.

He looked away and then took his daughter's hand.

"Come on, Dad will take you to school."

As Mio walked the streets of Xiaoguang City, she didn't have many memories of the place.

Or perhaps it's because she only recently moved in and hasn't fully gotten to know the place yet.

She looked at the people patrolling the roadside; they had a strange sign hanging on their arms.

She had seen the same logo on her father's clothes.

Immediately, she saw the guards on both sides of the road salute her father at the same time.

That kind of etiquette was something Mio had never seen before.

Stand upright with your left hand raised forward.

And her father...

Mio looked at her father with curiosity.

Nishimura was nodding with a smile, saying things like "Thank you for your hard work."

But judging from their expression, they seem to be very happy...?

Adults are really strange.

When I grow up, will I have to salute my dad too?

Aside from this strange scene, Mio's only impression of Dawn City was its cleanliness and vitality.

Most of the buildings here are not as dark as the ones she used to live in.

The buildings will choose some warm colors, or even adopt a style that looks strange.

There will be no beggars or troublemakers on the streets here.

It looks very peaceful.

Although Mio didn't know the specific differences between the city she moved to and the one she had moved to before.

But she felt that this place was much better than the previous one!

And all of this...

She looked at the tall Nishimura beside her.

Sure enough, my dad is the most amazing person in the world!

A smile appeared on Mio's face, and she skipped and hopped after Nishimura.

The ninja academy is located in the city center, so they don't need to walk a long way.

Before long, a cozy yet magnificent building appeared before the two of them.

A line of large characters hangs in the very center of this building.

"Akatsuki Ninja School".

In the central open space of the ninja academy, a number of children had already gathered.

They were accompanied by their parents, who were handling the relevant procedures.

Nishimura also took Mio with him.

The enrollment procedures were completed quickly.

They were then led into the Ninja Academy building.

Following the staff's directions, they arrived at an indoor plaza.

In the very center of the square, there is a podium.

Thousands of seats were set up within a 180-degree radius of the podium.

Nishimura, following the instructions, took his seat.

"Dad, is the principal going to give us a speech later?"

"Of course."

Nishimura patted Nishimura Mio's head; what he admired most about his daughter was her wisdom.

Perhaps Mio perfectly inherited her mother's intelligence.

Thinking of this, his eyes dimmed slightly.

But when he looked at Mio, who was full of curiosity beside him, he returned to normal.

"Dad, isn't our principal amazing?"

Mio's words reminded Nishimura of a familiar figure.

He was powerful, quick-witted, and had even helped me get promoted.

"He's amazing, incredibly amazing."

Mio realized something from Nishimura's serious gaze, then smiled and poked her father's cheek.

"He's definitely not as good as you, Dad!"

Nishimura laughed when he heard the joke.

Looking at the face that was so similar to her mother's, he gently stroked Mio's black hair.

He then glanced at the watch on his wrist.

Time is almost up.

He turned his gaze back to the center of the stage.

A figure arrived as promised, and amidst applause, he walked to the center of the stage.

"Good afternoon, parents and students."

"I am Watanabe Toru, the principal of Xiaoguang Ninja School."

After this self-introduction, the entire audience erupted in applause.

The parents present all knew the name of Watanabe Toru, and their willingness to send their children to this school was precisely based on this consideration.

Who is the current leader of the Rain Country?

Without a doubt, it was Watanabe Toru.

Therefore, growing up in the ninja academy officially established by Watanabe Tetsuya is undoubtedly the best way out for their children.

Once trained, they will inevitably be associated with Watanabe Toru.

At the same time, Xiaoguang Ninja Academy is also the first public ninja academy in the Land of Rain, open to the general public.

Its allocation of resources is undoubtedly enormous.

It is precisely because of this consideration that many parents rush to send their children here.

They stared at the figure on the podium again.

"We warmly welcome parents who wish to send their children to Xiaoguang Ninja School for a six-year educational program."

"Welcome all students to join the Xiaoguang Ninja School family."

Watanabe Toru's tone was friendly.

"Next, I will briefly explain the educational philosophy and mission of Xiaoguang Ninja School."

...

Half an hour later, Nishimura left the venue with a look of surprise on his face.

Mio, who was next to him, had already gone to report to her class.

He was still immersed in the grand scheme that Watanabe Toru had mentioned.

The Akatsuki Ninja Academy recruits 500 students each year, open to all of the Land of Rain.

This means that ninja schools will cover the entire Land of Rain.

The Ninja Academy has a full three hundred teachers, all of whom are at least Chunin level.

Three hundred Chunin are skilled in various fields, which can basically achieve one-to-ten small class teaching.

The Ninja Academy provides children with two free meals a day, and members of the Akatsuki-kai and non-staff workers are exempt from tuition fees.

This can reduce the expenses that poor families have for their children's food and alleviate their financial burden.

For families who lack tuition fees, the school offers scholarships and interest-free loans.

This can completely solve the problem of struggling families not being able to afford tuition fees, and if the child performs well, it can even bring the family a considerable income.

Regarding teaching, Watanabe Tetsu frankly admitted that although Xiaoguang Ninja Academy is a ninja academy, it will not smooth out the personality of each child.

Here, instead of focusing on the child's individuality and development, we pay more attention to the child's personality and development.

To this end, Xiaoguang Ninja School developed multiple disciplines.

Such as natural sciences, sealing techniques, medical science, ninjutsu, physical techniques, and illusion techniques.

This essentially achieves full coverage of the teaching field.

Finally, and most importantly.

Watanabe Tetsu promised that as long as one graduates from the Ninja Academy with an A+ grade, one will directly gain entry into the Akatsuki.

Where will Xiaoguang be?

It is the sacred land of the Rain Country!

It is the place closest to the center of power.

Many people are now eager to join Xiaoguang Society, because the benefits of Xiaoguang Society are really numerous and good.

Of course, an A+ level is an extremely high requirement.

This requires assessing whether students have reached an extremely high level in terms of academic performance, critical thinking, overall competence, and moral character.

Perhaps out of 500 people in a class, only a handful can achieve an A+ level.

But in any case, this is an opportunity.

An opportunity for a child to reach the heavens.
