After experiencing some twists and turns, the Country of Rain fell under the control of Akatsuki. Under the leadership of Yahiko, he learned to imitate the pace of Konoha and began the process of rebuilding the country.
But soon, it had to be stopped.
"Unreasonable! No matter how hard you think, you can't defeat Konoha!"
In the conference hall, everyone had different expressions.
Yahiko remained silent.
"Why should we defeat Konoha?" One person said: "If you can't win, then join. And Konoha has designated us to join. Isn't this the goal we have been striving for, so that the people can live a beautiful and peaceful life."
"You kid! Are you still from the Kingdom of Rain? Konoha cannot be trusted! Joining Konoha means being inferior to others. Our life and death are completely under Konoha's control."
"Isn't it the same now? Life and death are under the control of Konoha. Or do you think we can defeat Konoha with all our efforts?"
"Or is it that you simply can't give up the status and rights you have worked hard to get! Where do you put the lives and peace of the people of the Kingdom of Rain!"
As he said this, everyone looked at the leader Yahiko intentionally or unintentionally.
"What a joke!!!"
"I am a warrior with faith!!!"
"It is undeniable that you can live a stable and peaceful life by joining Konoha."
"But! Can you guarantee that Konoha will not oppress us!?"
"Even if they are citizens of the same country, the civilians of Konoha are destined to be higher than us! We can just live our own lives, develop our own country, and live a peaceful life. As long as Konoha doesn't come to dictate, we don't come.
It’s enough to bully us. Hasn’t Konoha always claimed to be the messenger of justice and peace? If that’s the case, why does Konoha force us to join!”
"This is coercion! Violence! Oppression! It has nothing to do with peace!"
"I have doubts about Konoha's justice all along!"
Yahiko remained silent.
"You are kidding! Under the disaster caused by Hanzo, the country of rain has almost lost its underpants! You don't even know where the next meal is!"
The Country of Rain is currently dependent on food imported from foreign countries. Under the cloud of war, the result of all-out development of military industry is that the people will definitely not have enough to eat, the factories will be running day and night, and the farmland will be abandoned.
What's more, there is no farmland in the Rain Country. The main economic pillar of the country is river transportation, which is a hard life to barely make ends meet.
"You can go hungry, and you can eat two meals a day, no problem! But what about the children! What about the old people! This is fate! You have to accept it!"
"Are you going to throw away the backbone of the Country of Rain just for a bite to eat? You traitor!"
"Then it doesn't matter no matter how many people die! That means food and housing are included!"
"Asshole!!! You idiot! Konoha is a dictatorial empire! All rights belong to one person! Once ruled by him, the people have no future! They will become the empire's livestock throughout their lives!!!"
"Domestic animals! Do you understand? Eat and sleep! Eat while sleeping! Then they are fattened and slaughtered!!! Serve on the table!!!"
"It depends on what kind of ruler he is!!! The Yondaime Hokage's kindness is well-known!!! Treat everyone equally!!! Fair distribution to resolve all disputes!"
"That's right! The Yondaime is indeed kind and virtuous! Under her care, Konoha's strength is known to all. She is the greatest leader in the history of the ninja world. There is no one who is beloved."
"But she is not a god! How can she solve all problems fairly? She has her own tendencies!"
"Not to mention, she is above everyone else and is not restricted by the laws and rules of the world. This is the greatest injustice to others!"
"Let me ask you, if Hokage kills someone, is he guilty of the same crime as civilians?"
"Who will punish her!"
"God does not need to be punished. God is right. The only ones who need to be punished are sinners. You were punished by the Hokage because you were guilty and weak."
"Quia! You idiot!"
"You still can't see the situation clearly! You are the fool! The result of refusal is complete destruction! They are too powerful! Open your eyes and look at the countries around you! They are gone!"
"If it were to become a slave, I would rather be destroyed!"
"Yes, yes, yes, a slave with food and shelter! Two days off a week! Eight-hour shift! Every meal of rice and meat, rich in oil and water, makes the kid next door cry. Mom no longer has to worry about me dying suddenly in the factory.
The death assembly line is on! Great!”
"Some people may not know that a certain person is no longer here. The people behind him have secretly funded all our activities. Food, weapons, and intelligence are all the work of this kind-hearted man. That's right!
It’s Konoha!”
"Idiots who were treated as spear users! We were already in the shape of Konoha from the beginning! We are the forces cultivated by Konoha!"
Yahiko looked at one of the empty seats in the field, which used to be Minato's seat.
To this end, Konoha also thoughtfully sent top thugs to assist.
Now he is back.
"Konoha is willing to help us clean up the mess caused by Hanzo, let's all have fun!"
"Or are you saying that after groups of people starved to death, they knelt down and begged Konoha for alms to eat?"
Yahiko sighed and said, "Stop arguing."
Both sides looked at each other angrily.
After absorbing Hanzo's remnants, there are two groups of people within Akatsuki. The original Hanzo's people are clear capitulationists, or in other words, spoiltism, waiting to join Konoha and live a good life.
Yahiko looked at one of the young and cool purple-haired women.
Konan, as an elite member of Amegakure, is very capable. She took over her father's position and served as Hanzo's right-hand man for many years, keeping the country in order and assisting Yahiko to successfully take over Hanzo's entire power.
"Chief." Noticing Yahiko's eyes, Konan said: "My father died at the hands of the White Fang of Konoha. During the Second Ninja War, this does not prevent me from surrendering to Konoha. Considering the practical issues, there is no need
With other major powers holding back, the Rain Country has no ability to confront Konoha. When it comes to the life and death of the Rain Country, both hatred and dignity can be put aside."
Yahiko looked at everyone for a while and said: "I will personally go to Konoha to negotiate and confirm with my own eyes whether Konoha's sincerity is worth entrusting us with the ideals we have always had."
"If this country will become better in the future, people will live happily and stop crying all the time."
"It doesn't matter whether the bridge that supports this country is named Akatsuki or not."
"Chief! What about our hard work all this time! Our comrades who died in the battle!" someone said anxiously.
"Shut up." Yahiko looked at this man quietly and said, "I will use my own eyes to confirm whether it is trustworthy. I will not let any bad people steal the fruits of victory that I finally obtained, absolutely!"
The bad guys may come from outside, but they also come from within.
Teacher, have you known about this day for a long time?
But I will not be corrupted.
The boy who slayed the dragon didn't want to become a dragon.
The delegation from the Kingdom of Rain set off for Konoha, led by the leader Yahiko himself.
