"If you want money, I will give you enough to live an ordinary life for the rest of your life.
If you don't want to be an ordinary person, I can teach you ninja knowledge and let you become a ninja."
Listening to Obito's words, Yoshida Ichiro stayed where he was.
There is no doubt that either of these two options would bring about a huge change in his life.
Choose enough money to live for a lifetime, then he won't have to rely on others for food, even though he is clearly helping with the work.
Yoshida Ichiro didn't know how much money was enough to live on for a lifetime, maybe a million taels? Or maybe not, that would be too much.
He chose to accept ninja knowledge, and from then on he was no longer ordinary, and possessed power far beyond that of ordinary people. It was hard to say how far he would advance, but at least when he played ninja games in the future, he would not always be a rebel ninja.
Ichiro Yoshida made a difficult choice.
He even pinched his face hard with his hands.
It was very painful. He was not dreaming. There really was a ninja who came to his door and changed his life. However, that person was not his father as he thought, but his father's friend.
"Is that man really dead?" Ichiro Yoshida did not directly answer Obito's words, but asked whether his father was really dead.
Obito was silent.
Of course he was dead, Obito was sure of that, because he was the one who killed him. The sharp Wood Release spikes pierced his entire body.
But feeling the glimmer of hope in Yoshida Ichiro's eyes, Obito hesitated. Sometimes knowing the truth is a cruel thing.
What if I know the truth? What can I do? Nothing can be done.
Obito thought for a moment and said, "I can't be sure, but you should prepare for the worst. It's very likely that he's dead. If he's not dead, he should come back to see you."
In the end, Obito did not tell Yoshida Ichiro the truth. For such a young child, such a truth was a bit cruel.
When Yoshida Ichiro grows up, Obito may tell him the truth.
He has the right to know the truth, but for his growth, Obito chooses to conceal it temporarily.
"I choose the second one. I want to learn ninja knowledge. I want to become a ninja, find that irresponsible man, and punch him hard." said Ichiro Yoshida.
"Are you sure?" Obito asked, and then reminded him cryptically: "You'd better not hold too high hope to find him. I haven't heard from him for a long time. Maybe he has died in some corner."
"It's not confirmed yet, and if he's dead, he's dead. I'm happy he's dead. I'll eat an extra bowl of rice." said Ichiro Yoshida.
Obito didn't know what to say for a moment, it was too filial.
However, Obito had seen many ups and downs, so he quickly adjusted himself and said, "Since you want to become a ninja, you have to work hard. Most children will enter a ninja school at the age of five or six.
People with better conditions will even learn ninja knowledge before this, and at your age, some people with good talents have already become official ninjas."
Ichiro Yoshida is eight years old this year. Uchiha Itachi and Kabuto Yakushi, who are of the same age, have already become Chunin.
"I will try my best." Yoshida Ichiro said seriously.
Since there is a chance to change the status quo, he naturally wants to seize this opportunity.
Even though his father was missing and his mother was dead, Ichiro Yoshida still lived on with strength, which proved that he had an extraordinary character.
He will seize this opportunity and change his destiny.
Obito nodded, explained the daily training time, then left some money and left.
He didn't leave much. It's not safe for a child to have too much money. Just give him enough money for food.
As for what to do, that was of course the task that Nagase taught him.
This does not conflict with his next action.
Nagase asked someone to investigate the Akatsuki organization and check on Nagato's situation.
In order to obtain the information of all the members of Akatsuki at that time, Obito also has to go to Akatsuki.
Although the current Akatsuki organization is not the same as the Akatsuki organization of the past, the leadership is similar. Obito feels that there may be information about previous members.
If so, the next step is simple.
If not, then it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Not to mention where they live, Obito doesn't even know their names.
Obito used Kamui to quickly find the former base of Akatsuki. However, when he carefully sneaked in, he found that the base had been abandoned and there was nothing inside.
"They've all been moved. How cautious." Obito frowned.
He thought that only a part of Akatsuki would be transferred, but it turned out that Akatsuki directly abandoned the base in the Rain Country.
Combined with the fact that he did not find Nagato and Konan in the Rain Village, it is almost certain that all members of the Akatsuki organization have moved away.
Obito searched for a while, but didn't find anything useful, so he left.
Thanks to the information given by Nagase before, Obito knew that Nagato should now be in the Land of Rice, the so-called newly established Light Ninja Village.
Obito went back to find Yoshida Ichiro and told him that he would start formal training tomorrow. Then Obito left the village and went to the Land of Rice Fields.
… … … …
Because of the strength shown by Nagato, the daimyo of the Land of Rice Fields showed an inexplicable sense of confidence.
He felt that perhaps Tian Country could rely on this rise to surpass the surrounding small countries in strength and get rid of its status as a weak country.
Although the Daimyo of Tanokuni had no ambitions, he just wanted to lie down and live a life of pleasure.
But if he could become stronger, he wouldn't want to be a weakling, because being a weakling would mean he would have to pay protection fees to the bigwigs around him.
If I become stronger, I can save the protection fee, and maybe I can even recruit others. Wouldn't that be great
Therefore, the Daimyo of the Land of Rice directly let Nagato choose the location, and whichever one was chosen would be the one. At that time, the people in that area would also be transformed into residents of the ninja village and would be under the jurisdiction of Nagato and his men.
Nagato didn't hesitate and just picked a place at random. The base of Hikari Ninja Village didn't need to be secretive. After all, on the surface, Hikari Ninja Village was still an official ninja village.
Next comes the big project. It is a ninja village after all, so there must be a leader's building or something. Generally speaking, the building where the leader works will be the tallest building in the entire ninja village, so that the leader can have a panoramic view of the overall situation.
Of course, while building the ninja village, we also have to recruit people.
It has to be said that with the hard work of that group of ministers and the daimyo in promoting the matter, the name Yahiko and the Hikari Ninja Village became known throughout the Land of Rice.
Everyone knows that there was a powerful ninja named Yahiko in the Land of Rice. He was unwilling to see the Land of Rice remain poor and weak, so he established the Hikari Ninja Village and is now recruiting ninjas to work together for this great cause.
Some ninjas from the Land of Rice were very interested after hearing this.
Although there is no ninja village, there are some ninjas in the Land of Rice.
Some of it was knowledge gained from wandering ninjas, and some of it was inheritance from small families.
After all, it is now called the Ninja World, the world of ninjas. Except for the Iron Kingdom, there is probably no country without ninjas.
It is normal to have no ninja village, but it is not normal to have no ninja. The history of ninja is very long, while the history of ninja village is only a few decades.
In the beginning, there was no threshold for the Six Paths Sage to establish the Ninja Clan. It would be better to say that his goal was to allow everyone to have chakra, and to use chakra to connect everyone so that everyone could understand each other.
Those first members of the Ninja Clan are also the ancestors of the ninja families, big and small, in the current ninja world.
The more powerful ones, like the Uchiha Senju Uzumaki Hyuga family, have unique bloodlines with powerful powers.
There are also some mystical families that rely on passing down powerful mystical arts. The Pig, Deer and Butterfly families are such a family.
It can be said that some blood-stain families are not as powerful as these three families, and the secret arts should not be underestimated.
Then there are some ordinary ninja families, without any special secrets or bloodstains, simply because their ancestors were ninjas.
Many of the ninjas in the Land of Rice are from the latter type of family.
The strength of this kind of ninja is generally not strong, and is even inferior to ordinary ninjas from big countries. They can only survive in small countries.
Even among these ninjas, there are some passionate young people.
It is such a sad fact that our country is so weak while all the surrounding countries are stronger than it.
Backward and weak are not good words.
Those passionate young people wanted to change the situation, and then they found that they couldn't do it.
Because they are not strong. They are stronger than ordinary people, but compared to ninjas from other countries, they are...
Now a man has stepped forward, gained recognition from the daimyo, and established a ninja village in the Rain Country. How can people not be curious
They were curious about the strength of the man named Yahiko, whether he was half as powerful as the rumors said, and how far this new Light Village could go.
Nitta Ryuo is one of those curious people.
However, Nitta Ryusei is not from a family of ninjas. His father is just an ordinary wealthy businessman, and he learned these skills from a wandering ninja.
Perhaps because he didn't want his things to disappear, the wandering ninja didn't charge Nitta Ryusei too much money before giving him all his skills.
Nida Ryuo was also good to the old master. He gave him a grand burial after his death and visited his grave once a year.
Nitta Ryuo's family conditions are okay, but compared to those people from ninja families, it is not enough.
The two parties are not from the same circle at all. To those who were born into the family, he should be a wild ninja.
Ryusei Nida once wanted to hold a ninja gathering where everyone could discuss knowledge, share knowledge, and improve together. However, due to their status, few ninjas were willing to host him, and the gathering ended up in nothing.
Nida Ryusei was actually quite disappointed with the Land of Rice, a country with a corrupt and incompetent daimyo and a terrible ninja environment.
He felt that if things continued like this, sooner or later the Land of Rice would disappear silently in the ninja world just like those countries that disappeared in the long river of history.
Now is the era of ninja villages. The five major countries rely on the five major ninja villages to dominate the ninja world. Whether there will be a ninja world war depends entirely on the ideas of the five major countries.
But in this era of ninja villages, there is no ninja village in the Land of Rice, which is a tragedy.
As a result, Yahiko suddenly appeared and established a Light Ninja Village. Nida Ryuo was really curious.
So when Nida Ryuo heard that the Light Ninja Village was recruiting ninjas from the Land of Fields, he set off directly.
He wanted to go and see who Yahiko really was. If he was a fraud, he would turn around and leave, and travel around the ninja world.
He wanted to visit other countries, learn from them, and finally come back to build the Land of Fields.
If this Yahiko really has something, then he will stay in the Hikari Ninja Village and become a ninja of the Hikari Ninja Village.
It wasn't just Ryusei Nida who was curious. There were about sixty ninjas in the first wave who came to Hikari Ninja Village, and they were the fastest to arrive.
As soon as Nitta Ryusei saw Yahiko, he was already disappointed. He had a nose stud, ear studs and all kinds of studs on his head. What kind of novel outfit was this
Can he be a reliable person with such a frivolous appearance
Although judging people by their appearance is superficial, Yahiko's appearance really made Nitta Ryuo at a loss for what to say.
I can only say that it was too avant-garde and had too much of an impact on him, and Payne was a little too young, looking like he had only been an adult for a short time.
The other people's thoughts were similar to Nitta Ryuo's. Some of them who couldn't control their facial expressions showed obvious disappointment.
In their minds, Nagato probably used some tricks to deceive the daimyo.
Some of the people they knew had already started talking, ignoring Nagato who was still standing in front of them.
Seeing the chaos in the crowd, Nagato remained calm and did not have any negative emotions about it.
However, if this continues, his plan to expand his power will be affected, so Nagato spoke.
"Ninjas from the Land of Fields, you seem to be somewhat dissatisfied with me."
"No, it's just that Chief Yahiko is so famous that after seeing him in person, I felt that the rumors were a bit exaggerated." A straightforward person spoke directly.
And Nida Ryusei didn't say anything, just watched quietly.
"Are the rumors too exaggerated?" Payne's tone was extremely flat, as if he was an emotionless robot.
"Yes, it is rumored that Chief Yahiko is incredibly powerful and righteous, and is in no way inferior to the leaders of other ninja villages. Now that I have seen him in person, I do think it is a bit exaggerated." The straightforward man continued.
"Isn't he inferior to other ninja village leaders?" Pain's originally expressionless face revealed a scornful smile.
The ninja village here of course refers to the small ninja village, otherwise it would not be the leader, but the shadow.
Are those people like the Kusagakure leaders worthy of being on the same level as him? Ridiculous.
Pain was too lazy to explain anything. His chakra exploded and his powerful aura attacked the ninjas of the Land of Rice like a raging storm.
Let them see what a real strong person is.
It has changed, everything has changed.
It was as if a violent storm suddenly appeared on the calm sea, and Payne's momentum changed in an instant.
All the ninjas from the Land of Fields looked at Pain with shocked expressions.
Cold sweat was pouring down Nida Ryusei's forehead and his heart was pounding. Under the shock of Pain's powerful aura, he couldn't even move a finger.
At this moment, a huge storm has been set off in his heart. He did not expect that this young man dressed in "fashionable" style has extraordinary strength that he has never seen before.
The rumors are indeed false, because Yahiko is even more powerful than the rumors say!
