A reasonably developed ninja world

Why collect wild animal dung? Is it to fertilize the farmland of Konoha Village? Or is it used to wall the houses in Konoha Village?

neither. .biqugev

Beast dung has two functions. First, it can be used to make smoke bombs.

Smoke bombs made from feces are highly irritating to the eyes and nasal cavity. Not easy to use when escaping, it leaves a smell on your body. But when attacking, throwing two of these smoke bombs into the house will have an outstanding effect.

During the war, some people used to make smoke for communication. When you see an enemy, you ignite smoke mixed with animal dung. The rising smoke is straight and difficult to dissipate. It can warn your own troops in the distance.

But ninjas rarely build lookout towers in the wild and do not need smoke. The ninja's perception ability can already reach places beyond the reach of the naked eye. The speed of Ninjutsu in transmitting alarms is definitely faster than that of Wolf Smoke.

Second, wild animal dung can be spread on the roadside to drive away wild animals.

There are large expanses of forest outside Konoha, and wild beasts come out to hurt people from time to time. If the safety of the roads cannot be guaranteed, then no businessmen would dare to come to Konoha to issue tasks and sell goods.

Moreover, the farmland around Konoha also needs to be prevented from being eaten by wild animals. After all, most of the farmland is outside Konoha's walls.

Although there are ANBU and security forces patrolling back and forth, it is obviously irrational to waste manpower on such a matter. So Konoha needed to go to the forest to collect a large amount of beast dung and spread it on the roadside, so that ordinary beasts could use the road.

So why can't we raise wild animals and collect their excrement? Please, most of the feces that can deter wild beasts are from carnivores. People in Konoha can't eat meat, so how can they raise carnivores on a large scale.

Nagata and the others were walking carefully through the forest. In the wild, especially in a forest full of wild beasts, if you are not a brave person, do not jump on the tree trunks.

It is inconvenient to turn in the air, and the fur of some beasts has a protective color that blends with the branches. In one jump, they gaover.

This kind of environment is really training and torture. In addition to always being vigilant, how to identify feces is also a science.

First of all, the dung pile is not large in size and the size of the beast is not too large, so it can generally be eliminated.

For herbivorous animals, because the energy contained in plants is not as high as meat, herbivorous animals generally eat most of the time every day. Moreover, there will be a large amount of undigested plant fiber mixed in the feces.

For example, in some areas of the Earth Kingdom, there are no coal mines, only large grasslands, so the habit of burning excrement for heating and cooking is still retained.

Even if you find carnivore droppings, you still have to look around for traces. Identify the type of beast and determine whether the excrement can be used.

At the same time, measure the beast's combat effectiveness and decide whether to move forward or need to avoid it.

After the feces is collected, it must be wrapped in several layers of bags to isolate the smell.

It's not that ninjas can't stand the smell, but that some beasts have the habit of marking their territory with feces. If you smell the excrement of other animals, you will be considered to be provoked. And launch an attack on the ninja.

It's really troublesome. If you endure it as an adult, you may be able to easily kill the beast and improve your food.

When it is the turn of the ninja reservists like Nagata, they must move forward cautiously. Keep your tail between your legs and be a human being.

Nagata fiddled with the excrement in front of him with a branch and found that there were plant fibers and scorpion carapace inside. The person who left this excrement was an omnivore.

Looking nearby, there were large paw prints, scattered white hairs, and gnawing marks on the roots of nearby trees.

Nagata gestured to change direction.

Omnivores, which means they will not refuse human flesh when hungry.

The ninja world is a very magical place. Due to the existence of chakra, many animals will have abilities beyond the normal.

The most common ones are super huge ones, such as toads as big as mountains and snakes as thick as an adult.

There are also animals with supernormal intelligence, the ability to speak, and high IQs are not uncommon.

Therefore, without complete certainty, Nagata would rather adopt a conservative strategy.

Judging from the traces at the scene, it is likely to be rodents. A 2-meter-tall rat will ask you if you are afraid.

Moreover, in terms of the habits of rats, they are agile and more difficult to deal with than slow, powerful beasts. The strong type can still run away if defeated, but the agile type can only fight to death.

But someone in the team made a different voice: "Nagata, let's continue walking in this direction."

Nagata is not a person who cannot listen to other people's opinions. People who act arbitrarily in order to demonstrate authority often do not win authority in the end, but are isolated by others.

"Gu Jie, tell me what you think."

"Judging from the situation at the scene, it should be a large rodent. Rodents are usually very timid and have strong reproductive capabilities, and often become food for other beasts. We follow this path. We can go faster. Finding the territory of carnivorous beasts is much better than trying our luck."

To be fair, what Gu Jie said makes sense.

Kosuke Maruboshi is a member of the Maruboshi family in the decline of Konoha. He is very good at swordsmanship and is also very smart.

It's just that in recent years, the Maruboshi family has been gradually surpassed by the Hatake family and the Gekko family, who are both masters of swordsmanship. As a result, the entire Maruboshi family has a very impetuous desire for expression.

"Yes, Nagata, please end this mission as soon as possible. It's too uncomfortable to keep running around in this forest and carrying a bag of feces." Others also agreed.

Nagata is not a strong character, and in his heart, he also feels a little disgusted with this task. Although he is the captain in name only, he will not act arbitrarily when most people show their impatience.

Nagata is good at using form and leveraging strength, but he has no leadership skills.

So he nodded and just reminded everyone to be careful, follow the footprints, and keep moving forward.

Not long after, a bird chirped in the sky. Nagata looked up and saw that it looked like an eagle.
