"Huff, huff, huff…"
Under the setting sun, the whole place was dyed red. On a training ground, a man was constantly practicing swordsmanship, with beads of sweat running down his cheeks.
Shisui put away his sword, took out a handkerchief from his space ring and wiped it casually.
Shisui had started this training since Naruto started his retreat, and continued training until the sun was about to set.
At night, I deal with affairs!
At this time, a young man came up and handed over something that looked like a memorial.
"I won't watch it today. Come for a walk with me, Aoki!"
Shisui said slowly, his bright eyes on his tired face emitting wisdom.
An invisible majesty emanated from Shisui.
The man in front of Shisui was named Sagawa Aoki. Because of his delicate personality and good talents, he was chosen by Shisui as his secretary. He was similar to Chojuro, but his talents were even more outstanding.
He was selected through layers of protection and was able to stand out from the competition among many people. It goes without saying that Aoki has excellent character and ability.
"Yes, Master Shisui!"
Aoki said respectfully.
Although Aoki, dressed in a blue shirt, looks childish, he is extremely handsome and talented. Now, at the age of fifteen, he is already at the level of a Jōnin. His natural leadership skills make Shisui admire him very much.
The most important thing is that Aoki has a clean background and rose from obscurity, so he understands best what Umbrella has brought to the ninja world.
"Aoki, I've already told you that you don't have to be so serious. If you can, you can call me Brother Shisui!"
Shisui felt a little helpless, but at the same time, he was extremely satisfied with the young man in front of him.
"Master Shisui, you said that a leader should not show his emotions, and should have his own dignity in front of his subordinates, so that people can be convinced!"
Aoki said this respectfully, his expression did not change at all, but his eyes still revealed a hint of excitement and joy, he was very happy to be recognized by Shisui.
After all, he is just a boy. Shisui saw the happiness in the boy's eyes and couldn't help but smile. He said nothing more and continued to walk forward.
Aoki stopped talking and followed Shisui closely, with admiration in his eyes.
I will become a great man like Shisui-sama, and carry forward the red ideology! I will become Naruto-sama's helper!
In Umbrella, everyone wants to be someone like Shisui, but Naruto has already been deified. No one thinks they can reach Naruto's height. Now Naruto has become a pillar, a belief!
As time passed, Shisui walked a long way, out of the core area of the Snow City and into the countryside.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, you can still see sparse groups of people working in the fields.
The roar of machines rang out. Today's farmers no longer use livestock to farm as they did in the past, nor do they hire ninjas to do farming. Instead, they use machines.
In the past, not everyone could afford to hire a ninja. Only landowners with large tracts of land or wealthy families with affluent lives had this ability.
Farmers who only have a small amount of land need to pay taxes in addition to ensuring their own needs.
But now it is different, as Naruto conquered the five major countries, the first thing he cleaned out was the nobles, and then distributed the land to the civilians. With the emergence of high-yield crops, taxes are much lower than before.
The ninja world is undergoing earth-shaking changes every day. Schools are being built and roads are being repaired.
In the past, ninjas relied on missions to make a living, but now ninjas can earn a lot of money by building roads and infrastructure.
Because a ninja can often extend a road by dozens of meters with one ninjutsu. If this were to happen in Naruto's previous life, it would be extremely terrifying. A ninja could even repair several kilometers of road in a day.
Precisely because of their abilities, they have no shortage of money.
But unfortunately, Naruto set some ninjutsu to be exchangeable for money. Except for the precious ninjutsu that required points, many ordinary ninjutsu were basically open to the ninjas below.
Although Ninjas make money quickly, they spend it even faster. Buying a house requires money, and buying a car requires money.
You need money to buy weapons, right? Do you want to live in a reinforced concrete house? Then make money quickly. The low houses in the past were built into high-rise buildings by Naruto.
Not only did he save land, but he also made a lot of money. Naruto is the largest real estate developer in the ninja world.
However, due to the particularity of the ninja world, each house has a corresponding barrier to prevent being disturbed.
Of course, such houses are more expensive. In Naruto's opinion, only the circulation of money can promote economic prosperity.
It can be said that the current strength of ninjas has become much stronger, and because of this, the research on ninjutsu has become more prosperous.
Some people even specialize in researching new types of ninjutsu and combined ninjutsu in exchange for points and money.
...
Shisui slowly looked at the scene around him and couldn't help but smile happily. In the past, in the ninja world, most people engaged in agriculture were pale and thin, but now, they have greasy faces and their spirits are different.
This made Shisui very satisfied!
"I used to think that the absence of war meant peace, but in many invisible corners, many unfortunate things are happening!"
"This is real peace!!"
Shisui said with emotion.
"Yes, Master Shisui, I used to think that as long as I had enough food to eat, I would be very happy. But after joining the organization, I know what happiness is like!"
"It is you and Lord Naruto who brought hope and salvation to this world!!"
Aoki also said with emotion that he knew better than Shisui what the world was like before.
He was just a commoner, worrying about having enough to eat, and his parents feared the war between ninjas the most. He didn't understand it when he was a child, but when he was eight or nine years old, he could already see the cruelty of the ninja world.
Ordinary people are the most miserable, but Umbrella changed all that. Lord Naruto brought new ideas and new technologies, allowing him to join the school and stand out from the crowd.
He also protected the civilians under his command from bandits and wandering ninjas.
"I will protect all of this even if it costs me my life!!"
Shisui looked at the beautiful mountains and rivers and spoke calmly, but his determination was unquestionable.
Lord Shisui, I will also protect all of this, risking my honor and my life!
In places farther away from Shisui, changes are happening every moment. High-rise buildings are being built and flat roads are appearing.
And the people of the Ninja World are smiling more and more...
