Chapter 65: Upheaval In The Land Of Bears
“So, Kushina, what is the organization’s goal?”
Half a month later, inside the reconstructed Star Shadow Building in Hoshigakure, Yoruya voiced his question.
At this moment, he was in the office, handling government affairs together with Uzumaki Kushina. At the table opposite, Kado was looking at the statistics of Hoshigakure’s finances, his expression so foul that it seemed he wanted to eat this former ‘Third Star Shadow’ alive.
Xiao Xiangling on the sofa nearby was obediently reading the secret technique scrolls of the Uzumaki Clan, occasionally pouring a cup of tea for her mother.
Thinking about the changes during this period, Yoruya felt an indescribable strange sensation.
This mysterious and powerful organization, after conquering their Hoshigakure, although implemented curfews and entry-exit controls and other policies, did not impose high-pressure rule on the villagers.
On the contrary, Kado’s merchant caravans traveled between the Capital City of the Land of Bears and the ninja village, collecting daily supplies for the villagers, and purchasing the herbs gathered by the villagers in the forest, the prey they captured, as well as the local specialty products they produced, then transporting them out for sale.
More than two hundred and thirty ninjas were also organized for training.
After strength tests by Uchiha Hikari and Kakuzu, forty-five people were rated as chunin, five as special jonin, and only Akaboshi, Yoruya, Shizang, and Yoruya four people were rated as jonin.
The remaining one hundred and seventy-plus were all ordinary genin, and some could only master two or three minor ninjutsu.
After downsizing, the Anbu only recruited seventeen chunin, two special jonin, and two jonin.
Then, the new jonin squad leader Uchiha Hikari and Anbu Captain Kakuzu conducted rigorous training on all the ninjas in Hoshigakure.
At the same time, Menma brought out some D-rank ninjutsu, C-rank ninjutsu, and even B-rank ninjutsu, establishing a ninjutsu library.
Ninjas who trained diligently and achieved excellent results could exchange them with points and military merits.
For the ninjas of Hoshigakure, who were basically civilian ninja origins, this temptation was too great!
In just half a month, Hoshigakure underwent earth-shaking changes.
The ninjas no longer needed to train in the meteorite training room.
This was also something Yoruya had always wanted to change; he knew well the side effects brought by the meteorite, and there was still a small amount remaining in his own body, while many children who trained with him at the same time had long been eroded to death by the side effects of meteorite training.
Although they were conquered.
But the ninjas of Hoshigakure did not lose their motivation to pursue power; on the contrary, because those training them were the powerful ninjas who defeated them that night, they felt awe and admiration.
The villagers also developed goodwill toward the new rulers because their quality of life improved.
The entire village had accepted the fact that they were ruled by a group of mysteriously appearing powerful ninjas, and even quite a few supporters emerged.
Therefore, Yoruya felt very strange: clearly they were the conquered side, so why was Lord Shura so good to them… and what was their purpose?
“Purpose? Unifying the Ninja World, of course.” Uzumaki Kushina handled the government affairs in her hands, saying without lifting her head.
“Unifying the Ninja World?!!!” The little old man was startled, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground.
His Adam’s apple bobbed.
Although Hoshigakure always prided itself as ‘the ninja village second only to the Five Great Nations,’ in fact, every generation of Star Shadow knew clearly that their small ninja village, let alone confronting the Five Great Nations, could be crushed even by ninja villages like Kusanagi Village and Rain Village.
If not for the Hell Valley Chasm, and most regions of the Land of Bears being forests with sparse population, sandwiched between the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind as a buffer.
They might have been invaded by other ninja villages long ago.
At the same time as the drastic changes in Hoshigakure.
Capital City of the Land of Bears, Daimyo’s Mansion.
“Don’t… don’t kill me! Please don’t kill me!” A plump and noble man crawled backward in an unsightly manner.
Outside the house, the blood of more than a dozen samurai and ninjas dyed the courtyard walls and house walls of the Daimyo’s Mansion red.
Uzumaki Menma, wearing a mask, looked at the water stain dragged out on the ground and frowned slightly.
He shot a kunai from his hand, directly killing the daimyo, with blood mixed with brain matter flowing on the bed.
“Lord, what are the next actions?” Outside the house, six ninjas wearing Hoshigakure headbands knelt on the ground.
Uchiha Hikari stood nearby, her gaze occasionally sweeping over these ninjas and the corpses everywhere in the Daimyo’s Mansion.
When her gaze swept over these six Star Ninjas, they all lowered their heads, not daring to meet her eyes.
These six Star Ninjas were all chunin who performed outstandingly under Uchiha Hikari’s training, and also supporters of ‘Lord Shura,’ transferred here for this mission.
The military merits from participating in the mission could be exchanged in the village’s ninjutsu library for C-rank ninjutsu or even B-rank ninjutsu; for these civilian-born ninjas, the temptation was too great!
“Act according to plan, spare the women and children, kill everyone else.” Menma ordered coldly.
“Yes!” After receiving the order, the six Star Ninjas immediately set off, scattering in all directions, beginning a bloodbath against the nobles of the entire capital city!
Menma and Uchiha Hikari jumped to the highest point of the Daimyo’s Mansion, looking at this capital city of the Land of Bears, located on the plains and crossed by a river.
The entire Land of Bears had a population of just over one million, and the capital city alone had 120,000 people.
Seventy percent of the Land of Bears’ population was concentrated in this western plain, while the central and eastern forests mostly had villages gathered by mountain folk, with the sparsest population.
This Daimyo’s Mansion was actually just a slightly larger courtyard, with no more than twenty buildings in total.
The six Star Ninjas moved in groups of two, shuttling between the rooftops of the Capital City of the Land of Bears, following the routes and maps arranged before the operation, cleansing the nobles of the Land of Bears house by house.
In the following days, these Star Ninjas under Menma carried out bloodbaths against the noble class in various cities of the Land of Bears, thoroughly eradicating the entire country’s noble class!
Of course, some nobles with good reputations among the people would be spared, but their families could not escape.
It must be acknowledged that there were some good people among these nobles who did things against their class, but they were individuals; the noble class itself could not be good.
This drastic change quickly swept through the entire Land of Bears, mainly targeting the noble class in various cities, with little impact on the commoners.
Menma had Kado prepare some manpower in the corporation and Hoshigakure to take over the cities of the Land of Bears, and through a national survey of the Land of Bears, promoted some low-level officials of civilian origin, quickly completing preliminary control of this small country with a population of less than one million.
But inevitably, some news leaked out.
At the end of the year 54 in Konoha’s calendar, a drastic change occurred in the Land of Bears in the western part of the Ninja Continent!
It was rumored that the ninjas of Hoshigakure in the Land of Bears suddenly rebelled, slaughtering the daimyo and other nobles of the Land of Bears, effectively controlling the Land of Bears.
The news quickly reached the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind.
The daimyo and nobles of the two countries attached great importance to the matter of ninjas slaughtering the daimyo and urgently summoned the shadows of their respective ninja villages.
And far away in Konohagakure in the Land of Fire, the Third Hokage picked up a strange commission and frowned in deep thought.
