I teach kendo in the ninja world

Rain country.

The continuous drizzle is like leaking the Dragon King's bathtub. It never stops in this small country with a small area.

Water drops are like bead curtains strung together by invisible threads, filling every corner of the country.

If you don't count the sea and just talk about the water content on the land, then this is actually a veritable "land of water".

Such a harsh environment makes it basically impossible to grow any crops here, and the rain is not enough to produce any aquatic resources in this inland land.

To be honest, this country is not suitable for human survival at all.

However, humans are indeed the most adaptable creatures.

Even in such an environment, the Kingdom of Rain still survived tenaciously, and gave birth to a peerless strongman who could rival or even surpass the Five Kages - Sansho Hanzo!

Hanzo was a commoner who was born in an inconspicuous small village in the Land of Rain. The only thing worth mentioning about that village was that there was a highly poisonous black pepper fish living in the nearby swamp.

And it is Hanzo's greatest opportunity to change his destiny against the odds.

One day, the Sanshou Fish Monin died, and Hanzo, who was still young at that time, risked his life to remove its poisonous sac and transplanted it into his own body.

Sanshou fish are creatures that are highly poisonous even in their breath. The poison sacs in their bodies are where all the poisons gather. They are truly terrifying poisons that can kill you if you touch them.

However, the young Hanzo survived. From then on, he not only had the ability to swallow poisonous mist, but also had a new name.

A name that will shock the entire ninja world in the future and be given the prefix "demigod".

Sanzo Fish Hanzo!

The next development of the story is like the protagonist of an ordinary novel. Sanshouyu Hanzo not only possesses the ability to poison caused by transplanted poison sacs, but also has excellent ninjutsu, taijutsu and other talents. He even once mastered swordsmanship alone. Can suppress the iron country's general Mifune.

In addition to this, perhaps because of the poison sac, he also gained the recognition of the Sanchiyu tribe and gained a powerful psychic beast tribe to serve him.

And finally, relying on these, he gradually ascended to the position of leader of Yuyin Village, his reputation shocked the world, and he was respected as [Demigod] by the entire ninja world!

If the story of this man named Hanzo ends here, then there is no doubt that this is a pretty good article.

The protagonist started from a humble beginning. He accidentally got a gold finger, and then discovered that his talent for cultivation was really good. Then he counterattacked all the way up, and finally achieved the highest level.

Although the routine is a bit old, it is very classic.

However, unfortunately, in this world, Sansho Hanzo is not the protagonist.

His legendary first half of life was actually just to make him a stepping stone to a higher level.

When Hanzo became the leader of the Rain Hidden Village, he immediately discovered the inherent limitations of the Rain Hidden Village.

Here, agriculture and agriculture cannot develop, and there is no suitable environment for animal husbandry. It takes all their efforts to barely survive.

Of course, Hanzo, known as [Demigod], cannot accept this situation.

His goal is to make his country stand at the top of the ninja world and become the sixth existence on par with the five major countries in the ninja world.

Hanzo, who had a smooth journey in the first half of his life, easily set this goal.

And this was also the beginning of his series of setbacks in the rest of his life.

The Country of Rain wants to develop, but the land in our own country cannot support it. What should we do?

Of course they are going to grab other people’s land!

It is said that the Kingdom of Rain is located between the three kingdoms of fire, wind and earth. It is a must-have for military strategists and is very dangerous.

But in fact, the Country of Rain also borders two other countries.

That is the land of grass and the land of birds.

The area of ​​these two countries is almost the same as that of the Rain Country, but the land environment is much superior.

And the most important thing is that their strength is nothing compared to Yugakure who has Hanzo.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Hanzo let go of using his toxin, he could destroy these two countries by himself.

However, a country with such a weak strength can survive in the cracks between fire, earth, wind, and earth, which naturally has its own meaning of existence.

They are a conflict isolation zone tacitly set aside by these three major powers.

It can also be said to be a war zone.

In this case, how could they allow Yuyin Village to want to annex the two countries to strengthen itself?

Regardless of whether it was for the purpose of suppressing Yugakure or retaining the war isolation zone, these three powers would not allow Hanzo's actions.

And how heroic was Hanzo, who was at the peak of his life at that time?

He directly declared war on the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Wind!

I vow to use the sharp blade in my hand to carve out a large territory for Yuyin Village!

pity……

The cruel reality is not a hot-blooded comic. Hanzo, a passionate Sanshouyu, was eventually forced to bend his spine.

Although he himself is still an invincible ninja demigod, the Amegakure Village cannot withstand the offensive of Konoha and Sunagakure.

Even they themselves are at each other's throats!

Therefore, Hanzo, who was re-taught by the cruel reality, had to accept the result that he won the battle but lost the war.

On that day of heavy rain, he let go of the three Hokage disciples who he could have crushed to death with just a little more force, and gave them the title of [Konoha Sannin].

It was also from this moment that the high-spirited demigod of the ninja world died, and the only one who survived was the head of Amegakure Village who succumbed to reality.

All the pride and ambition that I had had were buried on that day.

Today's Sanshouyu Hanzo, although he still bears the title of [Demigod], is no longer the hero who can declare war on the five major powers in a fit of anger.

Having lost his ambition, he has now become not only greedy for power, but also very insecure, and has to have dozens of Amegakure ninjas guarding him at all times.

"Aw~"

A toad stepped on the rainwater and appeared outside the tower where Hanzo lived.

In an unnoticed corner, an arm stretched out from the toad's mouth and pressed to the ground, followed by a head, shoulders, torso, and legs.

Not long after, a figure wearing a Konoha ninja forehead protector and white hair shawl appeared completely in the Rain Hidden Village.

It was none other than Jiraiya among the Sannin of Konoha!

Just as the Third Tsuchikage Onoki guessed, although Konoha's first target is Kirigakure Village, they will never neglect their vigilance against the other three countries.

Therefore, just before the war begins, the Rain Kingdom, which is located between the three kingdoms of fire, earth, and wind, and occupies the main march route, is the ally that Konoha Village must win over.

Because, as the acting Hokage, Orochimaru knew very well that Konoha had already lost the first round and exposed its weakness to the enemy.

Then, the other major countries will definitely not let go of this opportunity to add insult to injury.

So at this time, the only thing Konoha can hope to win is the support of these small countries.

Among all the small countries, the Country of Rain is undoubtedly unique.

Even the country of Taki, which has Nanao in hand, cannot match the intimidating power of Sansho Hanzo.

Therefore, Orochimaru sent his most trusted Jiraiya to be responsible for the negotiation with Hanzo this time.
