I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

Wood Release: Wood Wall is actually not much different in difficulty from Earth Wall; at worst, it just takes a little more time to solve.

“Let’s move closer to the village center. After all, my family is from a prestigious family. If we’re placed on the edge of the village, there will inevitably be some gossip,” Kitahara Kaede said.

The simplest way to solve potential problems is always to prevent them in advance.

If you try to resolve the issue after it has already happened, you will have to pay a much higher price.

“I understand. I will discuss this with them personally later,” Naruto said.

He had already decided which family's property to relocate to the outside world, as both the Shimura and Sarutobi families owned a considerable number of properties.

These two companies have experienced unprecedented prosperity in recent years, so it's understandable that they would have to pay a price at this point.

Moreover, this isn't without compensation; it's much better than the treatment given when the Uchiha clan was relocated back then.

Kitahara Kaede didn't care whose family the land he wanted originally belonged to; since Naruto had made a guarantee, there wouldn't be any surprises.

Even though Naruto's methods as Hokage were somewhat lacking, his reputation was still unquestionable.

"I heard you say before that the ninja world is going to explore the universe. You must have had a goal in mind all along, right?" Naruto asked.

He was still very curious about this question.

Kitahara Kaede wasn't the kind of person who acted on a whim. Since he had this idea, he had already completed some necessary preliminary preparations.

“I’ve been meaning to say this before, Naruto, it seems you’re underestimating Kakashi-sensei. When the true power of a strongman of order is unleashed, they are actually capable of destroying a planet,” Kitahara Kaede said.

"You mean Kakashi-sensei can teleport a planet to the location we need?" Naruto asked in surprise.

“Yes, although it’s not an easy task, it won’t take much time to do with my help.” Kitahara Kaede nodded.

A powerhouse at the Six Paths level can wipe out all life on the surface by himself, so it's not that hard to imagine a powerhouse of order being able to destroy a star.

However, in battles of the same level, their forces will interfere with each other, which will slightly reduce their destructive power to the environment.

If we were to face a planet without any equally powerful beings, we wouldn't even have the right to resist.

"I originally thought it would take decades for the ninja world to develop the universe, but it seems to be happening much faster than I imagined," Naruto said with a wry smile.

“The enemy won’t wait for you to develop over several decades. If I’m not mistaken, the enemy that the Otsutsuki clan is holding off may soon realize something is wrong,” Kitahara Kaede said.

The Ōtsutsuki clan controls a vast area, and Kitahara Kaede does not believe that there are no other powerful groups in the endless universe besides the Ōtsutsuki clan.

It's just that the defeat of the Otsutsuki clan's god-king happened somewhat suddenly. Once those guys realized that the Otsutsuki clan's god-king had disappeared, they would naturally want to communicate with Kitahara Kaede, the victor.

However, it's impossible to predict how those guys will appear at that time.

The emergence of a dominant power like Kitahara Kaede in the ninja world was a matter of chance, not a sign that the ninja world was already powerful enough.

"Compared to the time the Ōtsutsuki clan has existed, the ninja world is like a child." Naruto shook his head.

The pressure on him had increased considerably, but he could only keep these things in mind; how to make the ninja world stronger would require a long time to change.

"Actually, unifying the ninja world directly would be the simplest way, but I'm unwilling to do it out of respect for A and Onoki. Especially since I have absolutely no desire to become some kind of ninja king or anything like that," Kitahara Kaede said with a smile.

In fact, in a universe where the strong prey on the weak, the dictatorship of the strong is the most common situation.

Although not every civilization follows the path of individual strength like the Otsutsuki clan and the ninja world.

However, the strong obtaining more resources and becoming even stronger has always been the most necessary way for a race to survive.

The strong are both threats and protectors of civilization.

“I haven’t experienced the difficulties you’ve gone through, but I can imagine them.” Naruto nodded.

The original ecosystem of the ninja world is a microcosm of the universe's ecosystem; the reason it doesn't erupt into a full-scale war is simply because there are more concerns.

It's not that war is far removed from them.

Chapter 907 New Home

The ninja world is still reeling from the aftermath of the Ninja World Conference, after all, what Kitahara Kaede proposed was truly astonishing.

It's not that people in the ninja world like to make a fuss, it's just that Kitahara Kaede's ideas have once again shattered the understanding they've formed over the past hundred years.

When the era of the ninja village had just begun, those old guys from the previous era also had a period of adjustment.

Kitahara Kaede undoubtedly paved a new path for the ninja world.

Representatives from various villages have now arrived in Konoha, all waiting for the start of the second half of the Shinobi World Conference.

Before the meeting began, the ninja world's strategists had already gathered together to discuss several issues.

Even ninja villages with closer ties to Konoha have begun to collaborate with Orochimaru on research into those mysterious enemies.

"The vibrant state of the ninja world now reminds me of when Konoha was first established," Hashirama Senju said, looking at the throngs of people that filled Konoha Village.

Although Konoha Village had a considerable population in their time, it was far from being as prosperous as it is now.

As peace lasts longer, the population density in the ninja village will increase.

Even now, high-rise buildings are being constructed in Konoha Village.

This would have been absolutely impossible in the past, when everyone lived in detached houses.

Even so, the streets of Konoha back then were never as bustling as they are now.

“Brother, instead of worrying about this, you should think about how to take it a step further. Only by becoming a powerhouse above the Six Paths level can you provide more help to the ninja world,” Tobirama Senju said while organizing the documents in his hands.

He had just completed the draft plan for cooperation with the ninja world, and it would be sent to the ninja world's think tank for discussion and refinement.

This is the busiest time for the ninja world's think tank. They are constantly collecting suggestions on future development and discussing the feasibility of implementation.

Although the world is never short of geniuses, anyone who can work in the ninja world's think tank can be considered a genius.

While individual wisdom can sometimes have a huge impact on the world, such people are ultimately rare.

Over the years, the only person who has truly changed the perception of the ninja world is Orochimaru, a scientific research talent.

The wisdom of the group still holds an absolute advantage.

"I'm thinking about the issue of life leap. Logically speaking, my life force is already a different kind of existence compared to that of an ordinary ninja. I really can't imagine life leap."

Hashirama Senju rarely wore a thoughtful expression.

"So why don't you go ask the powerful Kitahara Kaede? Or have you suddenly developed some unwarranted confidence in your own brain?" Senju Tobirama retorted.

"Kitahara Kaede's new home is located on the original Sarutobi clan's territory, right?" Senju Hashirama asked.

“Yes, the Sarutobi clan moved to the edge of the village. They know why, but they haven’t voiced any objections,” Tobirama Senju said.

There are too many examples of the consequences of ninja clans rebelling against ninja villages.

Examples include the Kaguya clan of Kirigakure and the Uchiha clan of Konoha.

The only outcome for ninja clans resisting ninja villages is annihilation.

Furthermore, as beneficiaries of the Third Hokage's methods, the Sarutobi clan wouldn't be so foolish as to jump out and ask why they were being treated this way.

"Let's revive the monkey as soon as possible. Since Kitahara Kaede promised, there shouldn't be any more surprises. Although the monkey can no longer act as the Third Hokage, he still has some use," Senju Hashirama said.

"You're planning to see Kitahara Kaede, right, brother?" Tobirama Senju asked.

“Of course, he’s probably not busy right now. I want to ask him about the path for us to take further,” Hashirama Senju said.

"While it's not a good thing to have doubts about Kitahara Kaede, I'm afraid there are quite a few people in the ninja world who do," Tobirama Senju said, shaking his head.

As the strongest, Kitahara Kaede doesn't need any special methods to get what she wants.

However, some people always suspect that Kitahara Kaede's actions have ulterior motives.

Faced with this situation, the Senju brothers were somewhat helpless.

Especially in those small ninja villages, their suspicion of Kitahara Kaede was practically out in the open.

However, they never considered that their tiny territory would be of no benefit to Kitahara Kaede.

· ···Request flowers··· ······

It's as ridiculous as a dung beetle on the roadside worrying that a group of people will steal its dung ball as they walk by.

"Don't worry about it. I don't think Kitahara Kaede will care either. Those guys will eventually realize how ridiculous their stupidity is." Senju Hashirama sighed.

Mutual understanding between people is inherently very difficult.

Fortunately, whether the ninja world has such a wonderful outcome or not is not so important now, the universe is just around the corner!

Any being that has ever been powerful will be filled with curiosity about the universe!

It represents endless resources, ways to become stronger, and novel adventures.

Now they just need to face the enemies that may come one after another, but that doesn't stop Hashirama Senju from dreaming.

“Go see Kitahara Kaede. He’s preparing for his engagement ceremony. I still can’t imagine what it will be like for Tsuna to attend an engagement ceremony with other girls,” Tobirama Senju sighed.

……

Kitahara Kaede is drinking tea in her new home.

He seemed unusually relaxed, as if nothing was on his mind.

At this time, the ninja world was in turmoil, whether for peace or for profit; at least they wouldn't go against Kitahara Kaede at this moment.

These guys will naturally talk about the strong in private, and some of them will have ideas for their own benefit.

However, it wouldn't go so far as to directly and explicitly oppose anything.

Because he was very clear about his own abilities!

They were unable to withstand the attacks of the great ninja village before, so how could they do it now? Obviously not!

Over the years, the ninja world has become much more peaceful under Naruto's suppression, but this peace has only extended to the five major ninja villages!

The smaller ninja villages continued to sell their own interests in exchange for handouts from the larger ninja villages. The Land of Rain became a garbage dump because that was all the benefits they could offer.

In a cannibalistic world, kindness is ultimately a glimmer of light that only appears in a minority.

"Second Grandfather, you could have just knocked on the door if you were coming," Kitahara Kaede said to a corner of the courtyard.

The Thousand Hands Brothers just jumped over the wall and came in.

Chapter 908 The Visit

"Don't worry about that. We're not really here for anything important," Hashirama Senju said, waving his hand.

He casually sat down opposite Kitahara Kaede and poured himself some tea.

"Ah, really, could it be that the resurrected members of the Senju clan haven't finished complaining yet?" Kitahara Kaede said with a smile.

Many members of the Senju clan have been resurrected, and they are now gathered in the former Senju clan territory.

Most of the time, they were telling Hashirama Senju about the hardships they had suffered in the past.

This kind of life is indeed not very pleasant.

"Actually, it's almost over. At least they're all alive now, while the monkey and Danzo are still dead." Hashirama Senju sighed.

"Nawaki should be almost recovered by now, right? Tsunade '750' hasn't come to see me lately; she's been taking care of her younger brother every day," Kitahara Kaede complained slightly.

However, he could understand Tsunade's feelings.

That was her younger brother who lost his life at a young age. Finally being able to see him again was not as simple as just accepting reality.

"I can talk to Tsuna about it, but she doesn't seem to listen to us two grandfathers much," Hashirama Senju said somewhat awkwardly.

"You two haven't come here to reminisce, have you? You must have something important to discuss with me, right?" Kitahara Kaede asked.

The previous conversation was between relatives, but now it's time to discuss serious matters.

"It's about the expansion of Konoha Village. Konoha is a bit crowded right now," Tobirama Senju said.

That's indeed the case now; the tallest building in the past was only the three-story Hokage Building.

But things have changed now. Five- or six-story buildings are everywhere, but even so, Konoha still feels somewhat crowded.

"Actually, considering the population of the ninja world, it will take at least several decades of development before the ninja world has to expand outwards. Until then, it's perfectly normal for the ninja world to continue to expand its territory," Kitahara Kaede said.

If the ninjas' labor power had been used for production, their industry would have long surpassed that of ordinary people.

It's just that no one seems to have considered the despicable nature of using ninjutsu in production since some point.

Ultimately, it's probably Black Zetsu's fault.

That guy even spent hundreds of years preparing in order to get people to choose burial.

In order to turn ninjas into mere killing machines, no one knows how much he contributed to this.
