From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

The expanded meeting began with discussions on various systems and institutions.

This includes representatives of rulers from various countries that were formerly small nations, but are now small regions.

Regarding people's livelihood, the issues raised included the reuse of high-quality seeds, whether fertilizers would affect the land, the purchase price of crops, and whether land could be contracted out.

The questions raised by the farmers' representatives made the people in the General Political Office frown and ponder for a long time.

Because in the past few days, the central issue discussed by the General Political Office has been about the Otsutsuki clan and the countermeasures for the Ten-Tails' split forms.

Kevin's information from the Hokage's office in Konoha was naturally made public between the General Affairs Office and the Five Kage.

In comparison, the problems that have kept them awake these past few days are clearly more important.

Therefore, when asked about land and farmers in relation to people's livelihoods, the group seemed somewhat anxious.

As one of the ruling officials, Yahiko and the others were no longer the naive people they once were. After receiving education in new ideas, they were able to discern the key point in these questions... the land.

With the development of technology, light industry flourished in the Rain Region, relying on commercial centers. Various ninja villages also established research institutes. With the help of readily available technology, urban development also required a large amount of light industry.

The development of light industry has driven economic growth, which has also enabled those engaged in it to earn more money than ordinary farmers.

Neither rules nor laws can stop people from pursuing a better life.

This led to a surge in hiring in light industry factories, making it inevitable for farmers to abandon farming after comparing the potential earnings.

But is food more important, or are everyday consumer goods produced by light industry more important?

Since the fall of the Daimyo's mansion and the spread of new ideas throughout the ninja world, many problems have begun to emerge.

It was this first day of the expanded meeting that made the management of the General Political Department realize that the arrival of dawn did not mean they could rest easy.

The fact that war is unsolvable due to resource scarcity does not mean that solving the problem of resource scarcity will solve the war once and for all.

Having developed a dialectical mindset, they realized that if the many issues raised at this meeting could not be resolved, the newly arrived peace would gradually turn into chaos.

The power of technology has been revealed; even a powerful cannonball can prevent a ninja from escaping.

The domineering presence also gradually diminishes the combat strength of individuals.

If chaos were to erupt, the war that breaks out would likely not be just a war between ninjas as it has been in the past, but a war that affects the entire world.

After the first day of the meeting ended, the people from the General Political Office, several commanders of the Revolutionary Army, and the Kage of the Five Great Ninja Villages were all frowning in thought.

The problems that troubled them shifted from their former enemies to the formulation of systems.

"Land contracting could lead to the monopoly of food, a vital resource. If those merchants were to control this lifeline..."

Minato Namikaze didn't finish his sentence.

The Fourth Raikage, A, spoke up, "They dare! They'll try if they don't want to die!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi shook her head slightly: "When dealing with people from beyond the heavens, strength is the only standard. But when dealing with internal conflicts... that will only exacerbate the contradictions."

Hanzo scratched his head.

For the first time, he felt he was not suited for the position of Chief Executive of the General Political Office.

Representatives from various groups attended the expanded meeting in order to resolve the escalating conflicts in this way.

Originally, I thought that with abundant resources, these were just minor issues. The real problem was the Otsutsuki clan, and those Ten-Tails' split forms.

But it seems that before even discussing the issue of the security forces, problems concerning people's livelihoods and businesses have already emerged.

Yahiko, who in his youth believed that all problems could be solved through conversation, was now deep in thought.

The Master brought dawn to this world, enabling everyone to sit down and discuss matters, including but not limited to the Five Kage of the past.

This situation would have been unimaginable in the past.

However, the problem we face now is one that everyone knows will create contradictions in the future, but no one seems to have a solution.

At this moment, Nagato spoke up, "May I ask the master?"

Xiao Nan shook her head slightly: "In the past, regarding the adjustment of laws and some situations concerning the research institute, the master only gave the central idea of ​​putting people first."

"The master said: The ninja world has its own unique characteristics. Even if many things have similarities, copying them blindly can cause irreversible consequences. Therefore, we need to figure everything out ourselves."

"But after the emergence of domineering power, as long as the common people can firmly uphold their will for justice, they will have the means to resist."

"This world is not necessarily ruled by us. If any of us become new dragons, then the dragon slayer will also be born among the people."

……

The negotiations continued late into the night after the meeting ended.

After several discussions, the origins of this vital agricultural product were traced back to its roots.

Under the people-centered philosophy, it is impossible to prevent ordinary people from pursuing a better life, but the real concern is that agricultural products will be monopolized.

This situation leads to the hoarding and hoarding of vital survival resources. After referring to the past management practices of the Daming Prefecture, it was concluded that laws are needed to regulate the prices of survival resources.

At the same time, the contract must be time-limited to prevent the possibility of buying and selling.

Of course, this decision may also discourage businessmen from contracting land, leading to land abandonment and everyone becoming producers of light industry.

This necessitates the involvement of research institutes.

With the mechanization of crop cultivation reducing the need for manual labor, how much land area is needed to generate sufficient profits?

This issue was resolved after Orochimaru's data was obtained.

If there are profits to be made, and the profits are not low, and large-scale mechanized planting can yield far greater profits than ordinary workers, then there is no need to worry about them not doing it.

……

Soon, the expanded meeting lasted for half a month.

Many problems were raised during this period, some of which were resolved after discussion, and the laws were continuously improved.

There are also some that need to be put on hold.

Two weeks later, it was finally time for the issue of the garrison forces to be addressed.

Regarding the monster attacks on various towns prior to the expanded meeting, the General Political Office has decided to increase the strength of the security forces in each town.

They were drawn from various squads of the revolutionary army to form a reserve force of the garrison, responsible for defending against further enemy attacks.

Similarly, the Revolutionary Army commander and the Five Kage held discussions and formed a large number of reconnaissance teams to conduct a comprehensive reconnaissance of the entire ninja world.

At the same time, the research institute needs to tackle the problem of communication device delays, and must ensure that the request for help can be transmitted to the strong support team as soon as possible after it is sent.

For this reason, Kumogakure contributed the Heavenly Delivery Technique, with the General Administration of Government guaranteeing that it could not be taught to others and that it could only be handled by Kumogakure ninjas.

Covering his entire body with Armament Haki, he can instantly reach locations where support is needed.

……

However, on the last day of the conference, an uninvited guest arrived at the expanded conference hall.

He had pale skin, two horns on his head, and three curled earrings on his right ear. His eyes were white, but there were black lines resembling eyeshadow below his eyeballs.

Wearing a high-necked black suit, Otsutsuki Isshiki descended directly from another dimension to the site of the expanded meeting.

Those eyes were immediately recognized by Hanzo and the others.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The revolutionary army commander immediately surrounded them, intending to protect the representatives behind him.

At the same time, Hanzo issued an evacuation order.

The representatives, who were initially somewhat frightened, were led out of the meeting room without the other party making a move.

Soon, the area around the conference room was also cleared away.

Otsutsuki Isshiki, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up: "Having waited until now, I believe you have seen my sincerity, sir."

He didn't look at Minato Namikaze, nor did he pay attention to Hanzo or the army commanders surrounding him.

Even with Conqueror's Haki, only Kevin could make it impossible for him to win.

Kevin, who had been sitting motionless in the corner and ignored by everyone, had no choice but to stand up.

After breaking through the peak, the ability to perceive existence—a mysterious and elusive thing—can be used at will.

So far, the results seem to be good, but Kevin is very curious whether Otsutsuki Isshiki discovered him or guessed that he must be there.

"Are you absolutely certain you can leave now that you're here?"

Kevin's voice rang out, drawing everyone's attention.

"gentlemen."

"gentlemen……"

Apart from the army commanders surrounding the enemy, Hanzo and the others bowed their heads slightly.

In the next instant, Kevin arrived in front of Isshiki Otsutsuki, and at the same time, a pillar of crimson Haki descended upon him.

The immense pressure caused the wooden floor beneath Isshiki Otsutsuki's feet to shatter, and he froze in place.

"You should value your life more."

"Having been ambushed and nearly killed by Kaguya Otsutsuki thousands of years ago, and having spent so much time finding a body that perfectly suits you, you should be more afraid of death."

Kevin looked at Isshiki Otsutsuki: "What is your purpose?"

Under immense pressure, Otsutsuki could feel his abilities being suppressed to the limit, as if he were being rejected by the world.

However, having already acquired the genes of the gods, he was not forced to the ground in a sorry state.

"I've been wondering about your origins, sir, but even the Ten Directions can only see the future, not the past. The ability of clairvoyance also has a time limit for awakening, so I still don't understand your origins."

Otsutsuki Isshiki said, looking at Kevin, "But you don't understand the Ten-Tails, nor do you know how much disaster that monster would cause once it gained its own consciousness."

Kevin frowned, and at the same time understood the purpose of Yi Shi's appearance.

The awakening of the Ten-Tails' consciousness made it feel threatened.

The power of the Ten Directions allows it to see thousands of possible futures for the world to develop on its existing foundation.

None of these futures are won by him alone.

What you see may not be the truth.

Kevin shook his head slightly: "If Shifang can truly calculate all the futures, then why were you able to obtain the genetic fragments of your so-called Otsutsuki God?"

Yi Shi replied in a deep voice, "Because once the power reaches a certain level, even if one can see all the futures, there is still no chance of victory."

"Even divine techniques are fundamentally based on chakra. But the Ten-Tails is the creator of chakra."

As he spoke, he glanced at the crimson lightning surrounding him.

"Could you please reclaim this power first? I came here with sincerity, because once the Ten-Tails gained its own consciousness, we had a common enemy."

"I don't know how domineering you can be, but in the future I see, there are less than a hundred humans who will survive in this world."

Kevin shook his head slightly.

The next moment, the intensity of the crimson lightning increased once again.

In just a moment, the level of domineering aura rose once again.

"boom!"

The floorboards of the conference room shattered. Gaara, not far away, trembled all over, his hands clenched so tightly that his palms bled.

"Snapped!"

With a soft thud, the floating Onoki collapsed to the ground, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

Only after this scene did Gaara finally close his eyes and collapse to the ground.

Following closely behind were army commanders who had not yet awakened Conqueror's Haki, as well as Nagato and others.

Only Minato Namikaze, Mei Terumi, Hanzo, Guy, and others were able to persevere.

Kevin's voice followed: "The future you saw through the Ten Directions ability—do I possess such power?"

At the very center of the oppressive aura, Otsutsuki Isshiki trembled all over, his expression already slightly ferocious, but he still managed to say, "Not... much... much."

"boom……"

The crimson lightning dissipated, and Kevin looked at Hanzo and the others.

"This world belongs to you, so the decisions are yours to make."

After giving the decision-making power, Kevin woke up the army commanders, including Black Mountain and Naoki.

But everyone fell silent when faced with the decision of whether to cooperate.

The more you know, the less able you are to make a decision.

The ability of "Ten Directions" is to predict various different futures based on the existing foundation.

The problem of the Ten-Tails' split bodies seems to be more terrifying than they imagined.

At this moment, Otsutsuki Isshiki spoke up, saying, "This world is very special, containing immense power, even capable of self-regeneration. It once gave birth to all sorts of so-called wild gods."

"But compared to that, even with the power of dominance, very few of you can match the Otsutsuki in terms of life level and strength."

"And the Otsutsuki clan... my planet, our planet, has been destroyed by the Ten-Tails, which possesses consciousness."

"The Ten-Tails, having developed self-awareness, will create new chaos as its consciousnesses merge again after each evolution of its split forms."

"But the power gained through evolution made it an existence with an extremely terrifying amount of chakra. And greed and destruction are its only interests."

"Our positions and races determine our antagonism, but when facing a stronger enemy, I think we can put aside our antagonism for now."
