This ninja in Naruto is unscientific

Chapter 430 Project Advancement

After Nishikawa Tetsu issued his extravagantly high-salary recruitment notice, not only the Land of Fire, but also wandering ninjas and strong civilians from all over the ninja world flocked to the Land of Fire.

This has led to recent difficulties in entering the Land of Fire, with stricter checks.

Money can solve the problem of manpower shortage, but it cannot solve the inherent arrogance and prejudice within the other four ninja villages.

The levitation train network in Iwagakure is a massive undertaking with complex geological conditions, and the craftsmen of Iwagakure are a group of unruly individuals.

A construction site outside the Iwagakure (Hidden Rock) embassy in the Land of Earth.

"My family has been carving mountains and quarrying rocks in the Land of Earth for generations. We've built more roads than you Konoha brats have crossed! Do you even know what load-bearing capacity is? Do you know what rock stress is?"

An old, shirtless craftsman with a full beard was brandishing a large iron hammer and spitting as he roared at several young engineers wearing safety helmets from Xiaojian Construction Group.

"You want me to be your lackey, you ninjas who only know how to fight and kill? Dream on! Even if the Tsuchikage himself came to persuade me, I wouldn't give him that face!"

The old craftsman was quite disrespectful, but he wasn't afraid of these out-of-town ninjas. "Do you think I, a local, would be bullied by an outsider on my own land? Do you think our Iwagakure ninjas are just for show?"

Standing to the side, Konoha's ambassador to Iwagakure, Yamanaka Inoichi, was also at his wits' end.

He's tried everything to persuade them these past few days, even bringing up the agreement signed between the two villages, but these stubborn craftsmen and old folks just won't listen to reason, causing the project to be severely delayed.

Of course, Onoki, who was far away in the Tsuchikage Building, was fully aware of all of this.

He originally intended to use the artisans' resentment to put some pressure on Konoha and test Konoha's bottom line in this cooperation.

But when the letter from the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was placed on his desk with its harsh wording and even a hint of threat, Onoki knew that the test had come to an end.

"Do these old fools really think Konoha is begging us to fix the road?"

Onoki looked at the letter and snorted coldly.

Having visited Konoha twice, he knew the current situation there all too well. If they really moved the transportation hub to the Land of Grass, then the mineral resources of Iwagakure would become nothing but waste rocks.

That evening, Onoki convened an emergency meeting of the Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village) leadership.

The content of the meeting is unknown to outsiders.

But it is said that on that night, Onoki's angry roar came from the Tsuchikage Building, and several respected elders were even carried out of the conference room.

"I don't care what ancestral skills you have, when it comes to something as momentous as the Ninja World's Shared Fate, which could change the fate of any village, anyone who dares to hold back will be sent to mine for the rest of their life!"

Onoki's exact words at the meeting were relayed verbatim to every craftsman.

The next morning.

With dark circles under his eyes, Yamanaka Inoichi had just arrived at the construction site, ready to continue his arduous "psychological counseling" work.

Before he could even speak, the bearded old craftsman who had been wielding a hammer and shouting "Even if the Earth Shadow comes, we won't give him any face" yesterday, along with a group of apprentices, stood in a row in front of him.

"Ambassador Yamanaka, esteemed engineers of Konoha."

The old craftsman bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, his rough old face plastered with an extremely fawning smile, and even his voice became incredibly gentle.

"Yesterday we were blind to your greatness and offended you, sirs. From today onwards, our Iwagakure construction team will absolutely obey Konoha's orders! If you tell us to go east, we will never go west."

Yamanaka Inoichi and the Akatsuki engineers exchanged bewildered glances. Although they didn't know what ruthless methods Onoki had used, they finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing the group of craftsmen who had instantly turned into obedient children.

But why is the old craftsman's face covered in bruises?

Similar situations unfolded in the Land of Wind and the Land of Water.

In order to use Konoha's drought-resistant and groundwater exploration technologies as soon as possible, Sunagakure's Kazekage, Rasa, even removed several village elders from their positions of power who were trying to profit from the situation.

Faced with the pressure of survival, Sunagakure's efficiency was exceptionally high, and the craftsmen and wind-style ninjas practically worshipped Konoha's engineers as saviors.

In Kirigakure, the Hidden Mist Village of the Land of Water, the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, took advantage of the Konoha Engineering Team's arrival to secretly purge a group of die-hards who opposed his reforms.

The deep-sea cable laying project in Konoha is progressing exceptionally smoothly, thanks to the round-the-clock protection of the Hidden Mist Matrix, except for a shortage of manpower.

However, among the four great powers, the situation of Kumogakure is somewhat unique.

Unlike the artisans of Iwagakure, the craftsmen of Kumogakure did not have the same problem; their issue lay with the Fourth Raikage, A.

Ai remained resentful about several of the terms Konoha had set at the negotiating table.

He deliberately instructed Tu Tai to use various cumbersome administrative procedures to hinder Mu Ye's progress in foundation approval and material transportation.

"Hmph, if you want to make money off us, you'll have to do things our way!" Ai sat in the Raikage's office, thinking smugly. He was regaining face as the Kage of a great nation.

Until, Hiruzen Sarutobi's warning letter arrived on his desk.

The letter was very polite, even warm and caring.

But at the end of the letter, Hiruzen Sarutobi casually mentioned: "I heard that your village has encountered difficulties in selecting a site for the lightning-attracting equipment. If the geological conditions of the Land of Lightning are indeed unsuitable, we can also consider building the energy storage station in another village. Although the transportation costs will be higher, safety comes first."

Upon seeing this, Ai's smug expression instantly froze.

Building power storage stations in other villages? Wouldn't that mean Kumogakure would have to buy electricity from other places?! What about Kumogakure's reputation?! What about their strategic initiative?!

"You old bastard, Hiruzen Sarutobi! You're ruthless!"

Ai was so angry that she crumpled the letter into a ball, but she had no choice but to give in.

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, and turned to face the earthen platform with a "I won" posture.

"Erect a platform! Go and inform those craftsmen that Konoha has witnessed the bottom line of Kumogakure. Since they are so sincere, let's be magnanimous and fully cooperate with their construction. Let's not let others say that Kumogakure lacks decorum!"

Seeing his Raikage's expression—clearly admitting defeat but pretending to have won a great victory—Tsuchidai suppressed a laugh and respectfully lowered his head: "Yes, Raikage-sama, I'll take care of it right away."

He originally disagreed with the process of going to Konoha, since every day that was delayed meant that Kumogakure would have to pay for an extra day, and there was no need to waste so much money because of a fight over pride.

Thus, after the initial friction, probing, and Konoha's high-pressure deterrence,

The multinational infrastructure project of the four major ninja villages has finally cleared all obstacles from the villages and entered the full implementation stage.
