Shock Therapy

Land of Fire, Konohagakure, Hokage resident.

Temari, wearing a princess dress, sat in her seat, wiggling her two cute white silk calves while reading the secret biography of the Suo clan in front of her, quietly waiting for the meal to start.

Not far away, the news of the day was being broadcast on the television.

In the beginning, everyone was rather repulsed by the television. Because it was a brand new thing that the older generation was not familiar with, and the television programs in the haystack stage were really lackluster.

Things were expensive, programs were boring, and naturally no one watched them.

However, with the slow advancement of technology, as well as the vigorous promotion of the Gondaime Hokage, this thing still spread within the village.

Until today, within the affluent Konohagakure, it could literally be said that there was one in every house.

-Though the original reason many people bought televisions was to prepare for the all-abominable Konoha Medical Exam.

But no matter what, everyone was now used to the existence of televisions.

After all, the omae test fits were really good looking.

And the slots between the goshinto trials were beginning to be known as prime time. Several big businessmen who had made bold bids had used it, and had praised the effectiveness of this time slot for advertising.

Businessmen were never afraid to accept new things.

As long as that thing actually made money.

Previously, the major TV stations were slow to develop because they didn't know where to push their efforts. Now that someone had gotten the first bite of the crab, those behind naturally followed suit.

With more money injected, the programs will naturally become more and more exciting. And the more exciting the program is, the more people watch it, the more money the powerful businessmen are naturally willing to pour into it.

Today's television has finally entered a positive cycle.

In the stumbling, all kinds of new things began to develop rapidly.

However, no matter how interesting the soap operas were, the current Temari-sama wouldn't give them more than a glance - because Temari-sama had recently realized that she seemed to be getting green!

T/N: green in china often associate with cheating

Temari-sama's big crisis!

Although she was still very young in actual age, Temari-san, who had been given high hopes by the village, was more or less aware of what she was facing.

Her future husband is too excellent, and a group of girls around him want to get on the bus with him before buying a ticket, she is also under a lot of pressure.

It couldn't be helped that Temari was just too small to truly be his wife.

Now not only are those kunoichis in the village with bad intentions, but even the kunoichis outside the village, and even the princesses of certain countries...

So... read first!

Chiyo-baasama gave Temari the most excellent advice.

The young Temari now knew that she didn't even need to steal from the others, because the Sand Hidden was her strongest backing. All she needed to do was to get stronger step by step and not make any mistakes.

And so, even though she obviously disliked it very much, Temari worked very hard on improving herself and reading countless boring secret passages.

In particular, the secret biography she was reading in her hand, called the Six Desires Separation Technique... was so arduous and epileptic that it was hard to imagine the author's mental state... It seemed to be the legacy of a certain Suo clan ancestor...

"As far as the current research results of our clan are concerned, putting aside the Senjutsu, the world's ninjutsu, in fact, are all within the realm of yin and yang. The power of yin, which uses the spiritual energy of imagination as its source, creates form in nothing; the power of yang, which uses the physical energy of life as its source, gives life in form. -

"The blood succession that has been passed down from generation to generation of our clan obviously also belongs to the category of yin recluse. -

"Legend has it that if one can develop the Yin-Yang Release to the extreme, one can condense an object called the Truth-Seeking Balls, which is indestructible and can easily destroy any ninjutsu or object... But I'm afraid that only the Sage of Six-Paths can achieve that kind of realm... We are good at Yin Release, then we should start with Yin Release... -

"After my research over the years, the reason why the best of my clan will fall into a madness that can't distinguish between reality and illusion after developing their genjutsu to a certain extent is because they can't control the increasingly powerful Yin Release. -

"This may be the disadvantage of having too much power... But, can I make it a little more powerful so that I can, in turn, completely solve this problem? -

"After all these days of insanity, I have begun to realize that the so-called Pure Land seems to be an extremely great Yin-Yang Release... If it is operated well, can I obtain unlimited power from it... It seems feasible. -

"At least theoretically feasible. -

"But once a human dies, the soul will involuntarily leave the body and travel to the Pure Land. Although I could find a way to force the soul to stay on earth, but then there would be no way to steal power from the Pure Land... unless, only half of it goes. -

"I call it the art of the Six Desire Separation technique. -

"Divide the originally intact soul into good and evil, with the good soul devouring the evil thoughts and the evil soul devouring the good thoughts. Now that the world is in turmoil, it's a good time to leave the good souls on earth, constantly devouring the evil thoughts on earth. The evil spirits go to the Pure Land and devour the good thoughts and power within it... -

"It's just that in this way, the good souls who are constantly fighting will inevitably fall into the Asura path and will never be reincarnated. The evil souls will inevitably be indecisive, like a mother-in-law, and it is difficult to achieve great things... Moreover, if the soul is divided, the structure of the two Building and destroying is simply the way to death, so what should we do... -

"But if it is a fluke success, and the two souls are not destroyed. Then when the two souls are transposed, it will be able to use the pull between the souls as a guide to mobilize the power of the infinite Pure Land... In this way then, it will be able to completely end this chaotic world right... -

"Such a change, I would call it demonization!"

The more Temari looked at it, the bigger her head got, her big eyes almost spinning in circles.

Luckily a sweet sound of dinner being served ended Temari's day of disaster.

"Mmmm, time to eat dinner!"

Little Temari immediately put the secret pass away and prepared for breakfast.

There was no doubt about Minatsuki's cooking skills, and today's breakfast was as hearty and nutritious as ever, but just as the family was sitting down individually, ready to start a brand new day, a somewhat strange piece of news came on the television.

"Temporarily inserting a piece of news... a lady claimed that the Gondaime Hokage Makoto is a scummy man who runs a harem indiscriminately and starts and stops things. Worst of all, he also gave his godson a haphazard grooming, making his daughter-in-law miserable..."

The content of this news was actually quite ordinary.

It wasn't just a personal attack on Makoto.

In response, not to mention the Hokage's family, even the entire Konoha was emotionally stable - because Makoto never hid the fact that he was a scum.

In his words, rather than letting others attack, he would rather attack himself.

And so he often lets others attack the fact that he's scum, in order to ultimately reach the point of completely desensitizing the people of Konoha.

Outsider: "The Gondaime is a scum."

Konoha ninjas: "Yeah."

No matter how clever you are, you can't attack the morals of a person who has no morals.

Cursing and cursing, everyone had long since gotten used to it.

Trying to blast Makoto by attacking him and subsequently blasting the Konoha was naturally extremely ineffective - since last year, Makoto had realized his singularly bad reputation, so he had started making cuts early on.

But that's not the focus of the Hokage family's concern.

Nono: "Does Hokage's godson... mean Naruto? But Naruto doesn't have a marriage partner at all... Didn't my dear say that we should wait for Naruto to grow up and then let him choose for himself? ...How come this news sounds as if it's a bit personal?"

Minatsuki: "I don't know yet."

The two adults didn't care about such trivial matters, and their emotions were very stable.

However, little Temari's two golden ponytails suddenly moved.

It was her being green radar.

"Wu wu... someone is trying to steal my fiance!"

Haku: "But aren't you always green?"

"That too."

Temari took two more bites of her meal, then felt more and more out of place.

"Wait..."

... ...

Kisame looked at the glowing body in front of him in confusion, never understanding what the hell it was.

From the surface, it was just a very large rock.

From the shape, it kind of looked like an eye.

But it was clear that it wasn't an ordinary rock - who's rock could fly - and there was a very obvious flow of chakra.

Kisame had traveled all over the world over the years, and had seen all sorts of strange things.

But this thing in front of him, he really has not seen.

Out of necessary caution, Kisame took a dozen steps back, he held the love sword in his hand, then closed his eyes and carefully felt the flow of chakra in the stone not far away.

"This stone seems to possess a very powerful force in it, and it contains part of the Byakugan's aura, but it's not exactly Byakugan... What the hell is going on here?"

Kisame whispered and looked up into the sky.

The sky was calm, not much different from what Kisame remembered, and it didn't look like someone was preparing to attack - in this day and age, who would attack the Kiri headquarters?

Granted, Kiri, like Konoha, covered a rather large area, which also included a large number of rivers as well as forests.

But no matter where it hit, it was provoking Kiri.

Kiri was now in trouble both internally and externally, but a great hidden village was a great hidden village. Other than a 5.5 like the Takigakure, hitting any of the smaller hidden villages wasn't a flat push.

-Even Kisame knew that the new Mizukage probably couldn't wait for someone to beat her. After all, military service was the hardest, and as long as the other four major ninja villages weren't the ones to do it, Kiri was almost certain to win. After a battle, Kiri's internal problems should have been solved...

"This thing is really strange... How did it fall from the sky? Is it the residue of some kind of large-scale jutsu?"

Although rare, it was true that there would be some ninjas who would exercise their skills in using large-scale jutsu in the middle of nowhere.

Kisame, because of the uneasiness in his heart, ran to the forest to take a break, and might have stumbled upon such an unlucky event... Is it really like this?

Kisame could not be sure.

Even though the ninja world has quite a few jutsu masters, the average of the much larger number of ordinary ninjas... the entire ninja world's level of education is actually quite tragic.

The vast majority of ninja were only proficient in the combat side of things.

Only those ninjas who had a special division of labor, were strong enough, or had lived long enough would slowly broaden their knowledge.

Kisame could about tell through his chakra sensing that this thing might be somewhat related to Byakugan. But what exactly is it...

"...This thing is too suspicious, but fortunately it seems to be stable and doesn't have any signs of rioting... It's better to hand it over to Lord Mizukage, so that Lord Mizukage can hand it over to the research class to take a look at it."

Kisame did not have any private stash in mind.

He was the most traditional kind of ninja, as long as he took on a mission, he would definitely complete it.

As long as it was the Kage elected by the village, he would obey one hundred percent. It doesn't matter who is the prefect, he is going to be the prefect madam anyway... Because of the relationship that Obito ran away directly, at this time, Kisame did not have any thoughts of defection.

After thinking about it again and again, Kisame took out a scroll. After a slight attempt, Kisame easily took the stone shaped eye into it.

The power in the... stone seemed to have been suppressed by the stone itself, with no sign of dispersing outward at all.

Not long after, Kisame arrived at the Mizukage's office.

As soon as he entered it, he saw Makoto and Terumi Mei sitting together behind the desk.

Only Terumi Mei was using a solid wooden chair.

And Makoto used a plastic chair... This is kind of known to everyone, a quirk of the Gondaime Hokage.

This guy, how come he's back again, and with...

Kisame was just about to speak when Makoto interrupted mercilessly.

"Kisame, you came at the right time. We happen to have a matter that we want to find you... Thinking about it, it's safest for you to accomplish it, do you have any confidence?"

Kisame wordlessly looked towards Terumi Mei who was sitting next to Makoto.

Terumi Mei rubbed her eyebrows helplessly.

"It's like this, Kisame, there's a matter in the Land of Birds... hey, it concerns the future of Kiri..."

In the previous coup, Kisame didn't strike out like Zabuza though. But an expert like him choosing to hang up is an attitude in itself.

Now that the coup was over, Terumi Mei still treated him as one of her own.

After all, without the saw blade left behind by Kisame, it was still a toss-up whether she could escape the cage...

Kisame listened to Terumi Mei's narration and gradually understood everything.

Just a short while ago, the Land of Water Daimyo had sent a mission - he had heard that a group of wandering ninja of dubious origins had come to the Land of Water. For the sake of the safety of the entire Land of Water system, the Daimyo of the Land of Water wanted Kiri to properly deal with this group of ninja.

At first glance, this seemed like a normal task.

However, anyone with a slight understanding of the situation could detect a deadly killing chance.

At the very least, Kisame was able to sense it.

The current Land of Birds was devoid of ninjas and ninja villages. Because of various reasons, the Land of Birds has never been formed. But recently, for some unknown reason, the current lord of the Land of Birds, Lord Owashi, suddenly got the idea to take in a group of wandering ninja.

The Daimyo of the Land of Water was, of course, very unhappy about this - after all, in everyone's mind, the Land of Birds was the Land of Water's little brother. Even without the concept of colonization, the Land of Water Daimyo instinctively wanted Land of Birds to be as weak and obsequious as possible.

Even if he couldn't force the Land of Water's lord to come to the Land of Birds to give an account every year, much less make the other party build roads for his residence city every year, the Land of Water's Daimyo still hoped that the other party would always stand behind him.

Big brother does not give, you can not want.

Land of Birds had acted well as a little brother before.

But if Land of Birds now has a ninja and a hidden village... this is a little bit bad.

In the end, the barrel of a gun is the waist of the lords of the country. Even if it was impossible for Land of Water to raise too powerful a hidden village with the power of the Land of Birds, it still meant that Land of Water's influence over the Land of Birds would be partially reduced.

This was clearly not something that the Land of Water's Daimyo wanted to see.

So there was this commission.

If Kiri actually did it, that was certainly good. The Land of Water Daimyo had weakened the Land of Birds, and at the same time, he had more leverage on Kiri.

If the matter was really accomplished, the Land of Birds would surely hate Kiri, and there would be no end to the matter in the future.

And if the Kiri did not do...

Win.

The Daimyo of the Land of Water is really Qin Shihuang's fault when he touches the wire.

T/N: Above, it's a Chinese joke, which means someone won so many games that he felt numb.

Both relieved the previous anger, but also solved the heart of the problem.

This group of noble things are not able to fight and operate, but the whole person is a good hand.

As for the direct refusal...

It seems that what Kiri did a while ago did completely enrage the Land of Water daimyo.

But the problem is here, and will not go away just because you do not deal with it, so...

Not only that, Makoto, who was a traveler, actually knew more things.

These wandering ninjas with a different heart.

In the original work, after the Lord of Land of Birds took in the wandering ninjas, these wandering ninjas murdered His Highness. Toki-hime endured the humiliation for the sake of the country and the people while using the cursed warriors as a blindfold to find the truth of that year - this was supposed to be the plot more than ten years later.

To put it simply, it was the rotten affiar between Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan and General Hou Jing of the Universe.

T/N: Emperor Wu of Liang, personal name Xiao Yan, was the founding emperor of the Chinese Liang dynasty during the Northern and Southern dynasties period

T/N: General Hou Jing, also a monarch and politician, he was the general of Northern Wei, Eastern Wei, and Liang, and briefly, after controlling the Liang imperial regime for several years, usurped the Liang throne, establishing a state of Han (thanks wikipedia)

But Makoto knew it as well as he knew it, not to mention the fact that the other party was now well disguised, and even if Makoto had evidence, it would be hard to convince the Lord of the Land of Birds.

Who let someone's reputation is so stinky.

...Even though the execution has not yet begun, Makoto still understands in his heart that the Lord of the Land of Birds will definitely not agree to Kiri's request, but will instead move further closer to the wandering ninjas....This matter, to put it mildly, is also Makoto's pot.

To be more precise, it was the pot of the Lord of the Land of Tea.

From Makoto's own experience, the riot of the Lord of the Land of Tea should not have succeeded.

That riot was filled with all sorts of flukes and luck, but whenever His Highness, the Lord of the Country, was a little bit unlucky, he would have died a rhythmic death.

But as a mature lord, everyone was a consequentialist.

Saying a thousand words, the Lord of the Land of Tea had accomplished the riot after all, and had actually allowed his country to flourish, so his reckless actions in the first place should be called far-sighted.

Even if the Land of Tea was now just an ingredient supplier for Coke, the biggest advantage of a small country was that it was easy to turn around and easy to satisfy.

The little bit of money that the powerful merchants had purposely funneled out was enough to feed the Land of Tea until it was full.

With the large amount of money from foreign countries, and the common people having formal jobs, there was no one to make trouble, and there was more tax revenue. And with more tax revenue, the Land of Tea could spend more money on infrastructure...

In all fairness, the lord of the Land of Tea can't be considered to be so wise and heroic, but if he has money, the people don't make trouble, and he's willing to invest in infrastructure, then such a lord is limited in the amount of money he can spend.

So constructed out of the economic system is certainly simple, but the victory can be closed loop.

It was foreseeable that as long as the lord of the Land of Tea didn't make a mess in the next few years, then the Land of Tea would definitely continue to be strong.

Considering the existence of the Order of Nothing, at the very least for the next nine years, the Land of Tea should have nothing to worry about...

A youngster who was originally not very good, because he initiated reforms, as a result, his popularity rating went all the way towards a generation of bright rulers, and as the other country lords looked on, it would be absolutely impossible to say that they weren't envious.

Anyway, the Lord of Land of Birds definitely wanted to try.

So, he even earlier than the original timeline, began to try to contact those wandering ninja...

This matter was not only difficult for Makoto, but it was even more insurmountable for Kiri.

That's why Terumi Mei didn't ask Makoto in depth, but instead reached a direct agreement - how could she have known that there would be a fucking transmutation eye falling from the sky, and it also happened to hit her home.

Kisame listened to Terumi Mei's words and gradually understood everything.

However, given Kisame's intelligence, it was also true that it would be a bit difficult for him to solve this matter perfectly.

So...

"Kill who? Where? How many?"

Kisame asked the three ninja questions very seriously.

The Kisame of this era might not have reached the pinnacle of his life, but the Kage-class level was always there. If he really wanted to assassinate anyone, odds were that he could do it.

However, this was not in line with Terumi Mei's original intention.

If Terumi Mei wanted to solve the problem by assassination, then she had too many, too many options.

But what Terumi Mei wanted wasn't to kill, but to let Kiri pass through this crisis peacefully - the Land of Water daimyo's calculations were already deadly enough, and the poisonous stabs that the elders had secretly thrown out were even more incomparably vicious.

This was the price of skipping the mission of Takigakure.

Terumi Mei does not regret the choice at the beginning, just right now... she does not want to have another struggle, but to develop peacefully and quietly.

"Kisame, we don't need you to kill people, we only need you to scare people..."

"Scare people?"

"Well, yes, the Roju of Land of Birds is a relatively staunch reformist. He has been encouraging the leader of Land of Birds to accept those wandering ninjas... If you really kill him, the price will be too high, and the gain will inevitably outweigh the loss. So let him exit first."

It couldn't be wrong to cut down someone's party before dealing with them.

But Terumi Mei couldn't figure out just how scary it would be to make an old middle give up supporting the State Lord?

Kisame also looked at Makoto with a puzzled look.

"Don't look at me with that kind of eyes... I've already inquired clearly, that Roju likes fishing the most, but I'm not good at the technique and have bad luck, so I'm always in the air force... "

"You sneak into the water while he's fishing, and hang fish in the water for his fishing buddies. When everyone has opened their rods and he's the only one who hasn't, and is bored, you then quietly hang a big fish of about one hundred and twenty pounds for him - let him slip for half an hour, and then let that old man reel it in. But before reeling in the fish, let the big fish rip the line and escape... Can you do that, right?"

It was impossible for a position like the old lieutenant to not have a ninja escort around him.

Even for Kisame, it would be difficult to sneak up to the other party.

But if it was in the water and Kisame was hiding without using chakra...

"In that case, it would indeed be possible to make that Roju withdraw." Terumi Mei closed her eyes and imagined the situation Makoto said, "But what if I'm not careful and piss him off?"

"It shouldn't be so bad... It's just a one-time attempt anyway."

Since Makoto said so, Terumi Mei was too lazy to object.

"Then what should we do after getting that old center to back off for the time being?"

"Of course, we should persuade the Lord of the Land of Birds to go digging for bird poop."

As usual, Makoto once again uttered a plan of action that was completely incomprehensible to the crowd.

However, Makoto's plan this time had a really low percentage of intrigue.

He really didn't want to deplete Kiba's diplomatic resources anymore.

So this time it was a yang plot.

For you to say that the lord of the Land of Birds didn't know about the dangers of rouge ninjas, that was obviously impossible - even if those wandering ninjas were really harmless, as a monarch, he would instinctively choose his own people. Unless there was really no other choice, who would use ninjas who didn't know their roots as their country's army?

Judging from the information that Konoha and Kiri had pooled together, Land of Birds really did have a bit of a financial problem.

Taking in stray ninja was really a last resort. But where there is a little money... then let the Land of Birds have a little money well.

In addition to the Land of Fire, other countries are basically named after their own country's most unique things.

Like the Land of Birds, that is really a lot of birds.

These birds have long been entrenched in the Land of Birds around, so countless years, years and years, will form a lot of bird poop island.

In the eyes of a layman, these bird poop islands were useless, and even the locals rarely went there.

However, in Makoto's eyes, these were huge deposits of phosphates!

On earth, there is a country called Nauru. It was because of the massive amounts of bird poop brought by seabirds that it was once very wealthy and even the entire population was obese.

Thankfully, the problem was eventually solved - because the phosphates were mined out.

And if the Land of the Birds...

With the power to raise its own army, who likes rouge ninjas?

Moreover, Makoto had done such a great favor to Land of Birds by allowing them to form a ninja village a little later, wouldn't the other party even give that face?

Wait until two years or several years later, the Land of Water will then move its heart... Then it is none of Kiri s business, the Land of Water daimyo and the Land of Water's lord, you go on your own against the line, we ninjas do not interfere.

Things like this will be perfectly resolved.

When the matter of the Land of Birds is resolved, they can also continue to slowly search for the Tenseigan....

Makoto has always felt that his greatest cheat is not his bloodline or system, but the insights he brought from Earth...
