Chapter 127 Changes in the Ninja World Pattern

"Huh? Are you interested in this?" Orochimaru knew that Shuichi's parents were killed in the Second Ninja World War, so he didn't expect him to ask about it.

"Because I think the ninja world war is likely to break out again, so I want to learn something from the teacher as soon as possible, and the survival rate on the battlefield will be greatly improved by then." Xiuyi's expression remained unchanged, but what he said surprised Orochimaru.

Orochimaru became a lot more serious after hearing this, and the village discussed it many times. Most people think that the last ninja war has not been a few years, and there should be no more fights.Now after hearing Xiuyi's thoughts, he didn't refute. As a disciple, he always has unique opinions on many things.

"Then let me just say that the first ninja war has been going on for too long, and I don't know much about it. But the second ninja war a few years ago was triggered by the expansion of Yuyin Village, It involves both territorial scrambles and national interests.”

In the Second Ninja World War, Yuyin Village was dissatisfied with its country's status in the Ninja World, and wanted to expand its territory and strengthen its strength, which triggered the suppression of many big countries.

At the same time, Hidden Sand Village may also want to take this opportunity to obtain more territorial resources, but because of the final defeat, they got nothing.

"Speaking of which, let me first explain to you why the top five countries have such a unique geographical distribution."

Xiu was very impressed with the geography of the world of Naruto. He also read a lot of books in the ninja school. After Orochimaru's detailed explanation, he accidentally obtained information that he did not know before, and his understanding of the world of Naruto became clearer in his mind.

In general, the territory of the Fire Nation has been changing slightly.

During the first Ninja World War, the territory of the Land of Fire may have been a bit wider than it is now. At the same time, because the system of one country, one village was first born, the thinking of high-level leaders in various countries had not yet changed from the Warring States period.

In the early days of the second generation of Hokage, because the death of the first generation of Hokage made other villages ready to move, Konoha was fighting for every inch of land in the country of fire, which brought serious problems, that is, the unprecedented tragedy of the battle.

The scope of the border is too wide, and it is too difficult to protect it all. At the same time, the rules prohibiting shooting civilians are not as stable as they are now.

Other countries destroy the villages on the border of the Land of Fire, and Konoha can also destroy other countries. Everyone fights for the country and the strength to attack the opponent. In the end, many shadows died in the first ninja war. The Qianshou clan, who took the lead in Ye Nei, suffered heavy casualties, and the other clans were not much better.

One of the reasons is that the scope of care that needs to be taken care of is too large, even for a high-mobility occupation such as a ninja.

So after the first Ninja World War, it was actually a few small countries that took advantage of the troubled waters to fish in troubled waters. As a result, a secret tacit understanding was formed among the five major countries, and it was forbidden to attack civilians. Even if they did it secretly, they must not be discovered by other countries. , otherwise it becomes a public enemy.

After such unspoken rules were set, they immediately showed results. Most ordinary civilians were still unwilling to leave their native places. After the living environment improved, the population flow caused by the war subsided.

At the same time, it is not over yet. Taking the Kingdom of Fire as an example, it began to concentrate resources, move the population on the border to the center as much as possible, center on Konoha Village, and develop the Kingdom of Fire according to the radiation range of Konoha's force.

"After doing this, the effect is quite good. The basic territory of the major countries has been determined, and the interests of attacking the borders of other countries have declined sharply. If you want to go further, you will face the huge disadvantages of away combat and unfamiliar terrain. There is no chance to take advantage of the chaos to turn around, but it has become a battlefield for great powers." Orochimaru said in a deep voice.

"So that's how it is." Xiuyi's thoughts suddenly became clear.Even in previous lives, the primary factor in wars from ancient times to the present is geography, and this remains the same in the world of ninjas.

"As a result, multiple lines of defense have been formed between the five major ninja villages. I will take Konoha and Sand Hidden as examples."

The first line of defense is the country of Sichuan and the country of rain. Using a small country as a battlefield can avoid the impact of war on one's own country.

The second line of defense is the city used for defense on the borders of various countries. The Kikyo Castle in Konoha Kikyo Mountain was once a big city, but the distance from it to the center of the Fire Country made Konoha very uncomfortable. The casualties of World War I were similar border cities. Too much.

After the First World War, the Kingdom of Fire took most of its population and transformed it into a castle, from a living city to a base for border guards.

The third line of defense is the forest of the Land of Fire, and the other side is the large desert of the Land of Wind. My village is more familiar with it, and the terrain advantage can be used to the extreme in battle.

After the formation of such a pattern, the five major countries suddenly became more comfortable, even if Hanzo appeared in the Land of Rain during the Second World War, the situation could not be reversed.

But this also creates new problems. Konoha sits in the most affluent country of fire, so it’s okay to have a little less land, and you can use abundant resources to keep getting stronger.

The Land of Winds is the most eager to own land. Almost 20 years after the First World War, the internal resources are no longer enough. Even though the resources of the Land of Rivers are far inferior to the Land of Fire, they are still much stronger than the Land of Winds.

"Most of the S-level tasks in peacetime are related to this." Orochimaru and Shuichi talked about the main tasks of Konoha Jami, Anbu and Genbu during the non-ninja war.

To put it simply, Konoha's bottom line is to maintain the current pattern and not allow Shayin Village to own land other than the desert, because increasing Shayin's strength will threaten Konoha's status.

These tasks are generally to prevent the resources of the Kawa no country from being used by Sand Yin. There is no problem with peaceful development, and there is no problem with civil strife.

And after finding out that there are forces supported by Sha Yin behind them, they will harass and attack. It is impossible to develop secretly.

"So, the disappearance of Anbu was done by Sand Yin? There are also a large number of strange ninjas pouring into the country of Sichuan."

Orochimaru neither denies nor admits, "It's hard to say what happened in this situation. It may also be that other countries want to provoke conflicts between Konoha and Sand Hidden. The disappearance of Anbu personnel can basically be concluded as death, so our main purpose It’s better to find out the situation in the country of Sichuan.”

After thinking about it, Xiuyi felt his scalp tingling. There might be Anbu and spies from the five major villages in every small country in the surrounding area.

After a day of high-speed driving, Orochimaru and Shuichi had already approached the border of the Fire Country, and the two planned to take a rest before entering the River Country.

After eating and drinking enough to recover, after they studied the mission information, they decided to transform into wandering ninjas and mix in. The first thing was to find out what happened to the large number of strange ninjas.
