"Ah ah!!"

The twenty ninjas and samurai on the field were knocked down one after another and lay on the ground.

Beside him, Lan waved her hand, and the medical staff moved the person lying on the ground out of the training field to begin examination and treatment.

Meanwhile, the next group of people waiting in the corner were trembling with fear.

They're about to get beaten up.

After working for a while, Village Chief Ban was finally able to skillfully review the documents processed by Kiyoi Megumi.

Therefore, in order to show that he, as the village chief, was not much inferior to Genji, Madara Uchiha decided to personally strengthen the village's military capabilities.

"Don't just stand there!"

"Are you just going to stand there and wait to die when facing a fast enemy?!"

"Use your full senses to perceive, and don't miss any opportunity!"

"Intensify chakra control training!"

The new batch of people will also be beaten for ten minutes. During this time, Madara will use his experience to correct their combat skills.

Although the effect was limited due to the short time, the experience of fighting against a ninja like him will help these people perform better on the battlefield.

Just like when he trained Yukiiwa, if one can muster the courage to face an enemy head-on, then one can be mentally prepared to encounter a powerful enemy.

As a result, all 864 combatants in the village suffered.

Everyone had the experience of fighting the legendary ninja, the Shura of the Ninja World.

Although most of them could only last a second or two before collapsing and becoming motionless, and then being forcibly pulled up to continue being beaten.

'The numbers and the strength are both insufficient.'

Madara recalled the data on the military strength of Hatsuhi Village, and compared with Konoha, the gap was still too large.

"There are two elite Jonin, eleven Jonin, three hundred and sixty-eight Chunin, and the rest are Genin."

'The [Flowing Technique Seal] has been deployed to all combat personnel, and the [Heaven and Earth Furnace] is being set up.'

Ultimately, there are very few people who have the talent to refine chakra into physical energy, which is a mixture of physical and mental energy produced by 130 trillion cells in their body. On top of that, there are even fewer people with ninja talent.

The [Flowing Law Seal] has already raised the minimum combat strength of the initial Sun Village. Once the [Heaven and Earth Furnace] is also deployed to everyone, the army can be strengthened by consuming a large amount of resources.

However, since everyone's aptitude is different, the efficiency of absorption and transformation will naturally vary.

The Research and Development Institute (RDI) has been continuously researching new military rations to enhance the physical fitness of combat personnel, in accordance with its original plan.

But that's not enough!

Madara Uchiha knew very well that this power was far from enough.

He needs even greater strength, and Churi Village needs even more and stronger troops!

"Lord Ban, you've worked hard."

Lan handed Ban a bottle of high-energy sports drink.

With a series of "gulp gulp gulp" sounds, Ban finished the entire bottle of sports drink in one go.

"Lan, how are the preparations for maintaining the barrier going?"

Lan bowed slightly and replied.

"Thanks to Lord Madara's help, the barrier team has completed 90% of the work. After this setup is complete, the village will be completely surrounded by the barrier."

"If someone from outside the village comes in, the barrier will definitely detect it."

He nodded, then casually tossed the plastic bottle into the trash can with pinpoint accuracy.

"Then let's hurry up and finish setting up the last place."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ban strode towards the last location.

Lan quickly followed.

Over the past two weeks, Ban has proven to everyone that he is truly trying to be an excellent village chief.

Although there is still much to learn, it is clear that Ban is developing in a positive direction.

They were able to set aside their pride and strive to make the expansion of Churi Village their primary goal.

Try to unite everyone and maintain their connection as a leader.

Although it is still somewhat immature, everyone sees hope.

"Master Spot."

Ban turned around and looked at Lan with a questioning gaze.

"The cherry blossom festival officially begins tomorrow."

"Xiao Yuan would always invite us to enjoy the cherry blossoms together around this time."

Ban was taken aback, then understood what Lan meant.

"I'll call Lei Yumen and the others."

Lan nodded.

Building good relationships with one's subordinates is an essential skill for any leader.

Kiyoshi Gen did this very well.

Madara Uchiha

Although there has been some improvement, his cold, poker-faced expression is still far removed from Yuan's incredibly approachable and adorable face.

If it weren't for the fact that Yuan published Madara Uchiha's tragic story on the news headlines, some villagers would probably still be a little afraid of him.

Lan sighed as she wholeheartedly assisted Ban and tried her best to realize Yuan's ideals.

Hopefully, Madara can make a breakthrough in this area.

So the next day.

"Teacher, let's sit here."

In a corner of the cherry blossom park, Yukiiwa laid out a picnic blanket, and the group took out their pre-prepared bento boxes and various snacks.

Sulfur Fire, Bai Miao, Feng Sha, Lei Yumen, and Xing Yan are all orphans and also members of the prospective Shadow Guards, so they naturally spend a lot of time together now.

Ban looked around and saw many villagers enjoying the cherry blossoms. He also saw Izli and Lan picnicking with some guards and maintaining order.

The only regret is

Bai Miao, Feng Sha, and the other three gazed sadly at the empty space under the largest cherry blossom tree.

Nobody was sitting there.

Because every time the cherry blossoms bloom, their first village chief would sit under this cherry blossom tree with his family.

But now, neither Kiyoshi Gen nor his family has come.

"Could Sister Xiao Ai and the others have gone to Wanghai Hill?"

Bai Miao looked at the empty seat and said subconsciously.

"Probably."

Fengsha also seemed a bit listless.

"After all, they enjoy the flowers together every year."

There is also a cherry blossom tree on Wanghai Hill, although it is still a bit small.

Meanwhile, just as Bai Miao and Feng Sha had said, Miki and her six daughters laid out mats in front of Kiyoi Gen's grave and looked at the sparse cherry blossom trees together.

Numerous bouquets of flowers surround Qingjingyuan's grave, representing the villagers' remembrance of him.

"Xiao Hui, let them plant lots of flowers next to Xiao Yuan. It will look nicer that way."

Miki stared intently at the tombstone, as if she were seeing her son's familiar face.

Kiyoi Megumi nodded.

"When my brother wakes up, he'll be happy to see these flowers."

Suddenly, Miki was startled and cupped her smooth face in her hands.

"Xiao Hui, by the time Xiao Yuan wakes up, will I already be an old woman?"

"If I become an old woman, I really won't have the face to see him!"

"Hmm, why can't I refine chakra? If I could learn Yuan's [Flowing Technique Sealing], I wouldn't have to worry about this anymore."

Xiao Hui quickly comforted her.

"Mom, it's okay. The scroll my brother left behind contains a method that allows even people without talent to refine chakra."

"Really?!"

Miki was pleasantly surprised.

"Yes, but it will take more time to study."

Kiyoi Megumi nodded in reply.

If they can really get their hands on that thing, Aunt Meifang will most likely be able to figure it out.

But she couldn't go against her brother's wishes and influence Ban.

We can only observe quietly.

On the other hand, Ban accepted Bai Miao's suggestion and visited the guards and other subordinates at the cherry blossom festival.

Although it was just a simple greeting and a few casual words.

After all, it would be too much to ask Madara to come up with topics to liven up the atmosphere.

"Teacher Ban, Brother Yuan visits schools and hospitals every now and then to encourage his subordinates."

"You should try it too."
