3 Chapter III

It has been fifteen years since I've left the Hyuga clan along with my wives.

Many things happened in these fifteen years.

We spent around two years traveling towards our destination, a large valley surrounded tall mountains and with half a dozen small rivers crisscrossing the valley as well as the lakes that dotted it...

It was almost perfect.

While traveling, we've killed around a thousand hostile ninja, whose corpses were turned into puppets by me. Some predators that were killed by us also shared the same fate.

The next five years were dedicated into securing the valley and building the infrastructure of the village that would be named the Village Hidden in the Storms.

The puppets were deployed as workers and security.

After five years during which we were extremely busy, the village infrastructure finally took shape. It was very well planned.

And we used our Ice release to surround the valley with a huge wall of ice that could dwarf the Great Wall of China in my previous world easily. There was a multi layered stone wall as well. If you add the seals and traps placed around and the patrolling puppets, we have a rather formidable defense.

After building the infrastructure, we had to tackle our biggest problem yet, finding villagers. After all, there was only three living villagers in the Hidden Storm village, me and my wives. And we can't have a village without villagers.

And it wasn't an easy problem to solve. We simply couldn't let any random stranger into the village. They must be loyal to a fault.

But after brainstorming for three weeks straight, we hit the jackpot.

Who would have thought that such a complex problem had such a simple solution?

At first, we certainly didn't!
