Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

After listening to the report carefully, Uchiha Kagezuki said calmly but firmly: "You have done a good job. The reconstruction of the Whirlpool Country is on the right track. The work of the Aurora Organization is excellent. But don't be satisfied with this. Future enemies will not stop at fighting within the ninja world. The combination of technology and ninjutsu is the key to our victory."

Yingyue continued, "The firearms improvement plan has great potential, so continue to move forward. But in terms of promotion, you need to find a breakthrough, especially in some small border countries, and try to get them to use our weapons first, and gradually expand our influence. As for electricity and agricultural technology, continue to grow and ensure our leading position in infrastructure."

After hearing this, the members of the Dawn Organization expressed that they would continue their efforts. Under Shadow Moon's instructions, they would push for the further development of the Whirlpool Kingdom with greater determination.

After completing the inspection in the Land of Whirlpools, Uchiha Kagezuki convened an important meeting with the heads of the firearms department of the Aurora Organization, especially the technicians in charge of firearms research and development and promotion.

The core topic of the meeting was to discuss the strategy for promoting firearms among civilians and the research and development plan for automatic rifles.

Uchiha Yingyue first mentioned the instructions he had issued before, requiring the firearms department to give priority to promoting firearms to civilians in the Oasis of the Wind Country.

Most of the land in the Kingdom of Wind is desert, but the oasis areas are home to more resources and population. The civilians in these areas have long been threatened by bandits and ninjas.

Shadow Moon understood that the power of the ninja was too concentrated in a small elite group, while the large number of ordinary civilians had almost no ability to defend themselves. Firearms were designed to solve this problem.

"We need to enable civilians to have the ability to protect themselves," Yingyue said to the heads of the firearms department, "The oasis area of ​​the Wind Kingdom is a suitable entry point. The people here yearn for safety, and we can change their situation through the promotion of weapons." Yingyue emphasized that although firearms are still inferior to the power of ninjutsu of ninjas, for ordinary people, they are a powerful and easy-to-master self-defense tool.

Uchiha Kagezuki also pointed out: "The promotion of firearms should not be limited to samurai or ninjas. We need to popularize it to civilians first. In this way, the influence of the Whirlpool Country can truly expand to every corner of the ninja world."

Then, Yingyue talked about the improvement of firearms.

Uchiha Yingyue reviewed the early developed firearms, mainly single-shot rifles and pistols. Although their power met the early needs to a certain extent, single-shot weapons were obviously not ideal when facing highly mobile ninjas and large-scale battles.

"Now, the industrialization level of the Whirlpool Country has been significantly improved, and we have the ability to manufacture more complex weapons," Shadow Moon said, "I hope you will speed up the development of automatic rifles."

Uchiha Yingyue added that the automatic rifle can fire a large number of bullets in a short period of time, and its firepower density is far superior to the current single-shot weapons.

This will greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of civilians and even the military, especially when dealing with powerful ninjas, the high rate of fire of automatic weapons can make up for the user's lack of reaction and speed.

With Yingyue's [Scientific Genius] ability, he already had a clear idea of ​​the automatic rifle and some key technical details.

Yingyue explained the design principles of the automatic rifle in detail during the meeting, including:

The gas-driven shooting mechanism pushes the bolt through high-pressure gas, automatically loading the next bullet after shooting.

The continuous fire mode allows the user to fire rapidly in rapid succession, significantly improving fire suppression capabilities.

At the same time, Yingyue pointed out that the current level of industrialization in the Whirlpool Country is already capable of producing more sophisticated parts, which provides a basis for the production of automatic weapons.

Under the guidance of Uchiha Yingyue, the technical team quickly recorded and understood these core concepts, and said they would start research and development and trial production immediately.

"Speed ​​up the research and put it into production as soon as possible," Uchiha Kagezuki said firmly at the end of the meeting, "Future wars will no longer be just a showdown of chakra and ninjutsu. The power of technology will change everything. You must understand that the future of the Whirlpool Country is closely related to these weapons."

The head of the firearms department was deeply encouraged and immediately began to develop an automatic rifle.

With Uchiha Kagezuki's foresight and leadership, the military and technology of the Whirlpool Country will move further to the forefront of the ninja world.

Uchiha Kagezuki stood at the port of Whirlpool Country, looking at the sea level in the distance, and a grand plan to change the ninja world gradually emerged in his mind.

Deep in Uchiha Yingyue's heart, Yingyue has a deep understanding and dissatisfaction with the living conditions of ordinary people in the ninja world.

Yingyue realized that the vast majority of ordinary people in the ninja world lived under the rule of daimyo and ninja, enduring oppression and injustice day after day, and that the root cause of their tragic fate was their lack of military power and voice.

Uchiha Yingyue knew in his heart that the reason why ordinary people had a low status in society was not only because they did not have the power of chakra, but also because their united front value was extremely low.

As the core fighting force of the ninja world, ninjas usually undergo more than ten years of hard training, master chakra and ninjutsu, and become powerful people who dominate society.

As for ordinary people, even if they have the will to resist in their hearts, their resistance seems futile when facing ninjas who are proficient in chakra.

"If most common people could master a certain degree of martial arts," Shadow Moon thought to himself, "both daimyo and ninja would begin to truly value the opinions of common people."

Yingyue’s thinking is very clear. Guns are the best tools for arming civilians.

Firearms do not rely on chakra, and ordinary people can master them with just a short period of training.

This technology will give the commoners the power to resist against the ninja and the ruling class.

When ordinary people have enough military power and are no longer weaklings who have no ability to fight back, the social structure will undergo tremendous changes.

Uchiha Kagezuki's goal is not just to promote firearms, but to promote fundamental changes in society through the spread of force.

Yingyue realized that if ordinary civilians could master firearms and have a certain level of martial arts after a few months of training, then the Genin or Chunin would no longer be able to easily suppress the resistance of civilians. The number of civilians was larger while the number of ninjas was relatively small, so a few months of training would be equivalent to the results of more than ten years of training for ninjas.

This means that the ruling class of the ninja world, especially the daimyo and ninja families, will have to re-examine the status of common people.

Yingyue calmly analyzed: "A society where everyone has the power of arms will force the rulers to consider the will and interests of the common people. The daimyo can no longer rely on a few elite ninjas to suppress the people. They must improve the quality of life of the common people and improve their treatment to prevent the common people from arming and setting off a wave of resistance."

The popularization of firearms is not only a change in combat methods, but also the beginning of a social change.

Yingyue imagined that, in this militarized context, a society based on civilian force would inevitably be fairer than the existing feudal ninja system.
