Bab 210: Chapter 210: Natsuo's Plan for Peace
Nagato felt a little exhausted after launching the Shinra Tensei with all his strength. But his physical condition has improved compared to before, since after a great effort he was not so exhausted.
With a little rest, he could launch another attack.
"Why should he continue healing me?" Nagato sighed. "Now I am much stronger than before..."
"Natsuo is not afraid of..."
"It's okay, he's not afraid." Nagato smiled wryly and shook his head in resignation.
Although his physical condition was much stronger than when he fought Natsuo, he still couldn't find a way to beat Natsuo.
In the final analysis, physical enhancement only makes up for the shortcomings of mobility and enhances resistance.
...
Uchiha clan district, Naka Shrine, underground secret chamber.
Nagato, Konan, Mikoto, Sasuke, Itachi, Natsuo, gathered here.
"This is the Stone Tablet..." Konan frowned as she saw the Stone Tablet without a single written word. "Nagato, what is written on it?"
Nagato seemed to be somewhere else, his gaze vacant.
"It's the same thing Natsuo said... it's the Rinnegan evolution method and how to use the Infinite Tsukuyomi..."
This meant that Natsuo had not lied at all.
The Rinnegan actually evolved from the Sharingan, and his eyes were actually implanted by someone with evil intentions.
This person is most likely Uchiha Madara.
And his purpose...
"He wants me to perform the Infinite Tsukuyomi?" Nagato frowned. "But why doesn't Uchiha Madara do it personally?"
Why would Madara let Nagato, who had much lower strength than his, carry a dojutsu that didn't belong to him?
After Senju Hashirama died and before Natsuo stood up, Madara could have used his strength to unify the shinobi world, forcing the villages to hand over the tailed beasts and perform the Infinite Tsukuyomi he wanted.
"Did you forget that Uchiha Madara is an old man who lived before Konoha was created." Natsuo glanced at Nagato. "At this moment I would be almost a hundred years old..."
"Do you think that an old man, even if he is an Uchiha, can be very strong?"
"So the Uchiha Madara we saw..." Konan muttered.
Before Konan finished speaking, Nagato sighed. "That person just calls himself Uchiha Madara, and no one knows what his real identity is."
Konan and Nagato originally thought that Obito was Uchiha Madara because of his Mangekyo Sharingan. But now after learning about Itachi's Mangekyo they began to have their doubts...
So...
What's his objective? The Infinite Tsukuyomi? But what's the point of this illusory peace?
Nagato sighed softly, that kind of illusory peace, maybe Obito and Uchiha Madara who are completely disappointed in this world are willing to accept it, but he is not willing to do so.
Even the peace imposed by his own strength is more meaningful to Nagato than that illusory peace. In this sense, Obito was very accurate in judging Nagato. That's why he didn't tell him about the Infinite Tsukuyomi, instead, he gave him information about the Ten Tails.
If he had proposed the Infinite Tsukuyomi peace plan at that time, they might never have collaborated together...
"Natsuo, do you think there can really be peace in this world?" Nagato's eyes were full of tiredness.
Nagato was really exhausted. Dragging his weary body, he had fought for over a decade, barely rallying the Tailed Beasts for a chance to maintain world peace.
As a result, because of Natsuo's existence, this plan was directly shattered.
Although the existence of the suspected 'Uchiha Madara' also has a peace plan, what is the meaning of that false peace?
First Hokage maintained peace for a while, but after his death, he immediately started a world war.
In the Shinobi World... Can there really be peace?
Not only Nagato, but also Konan and Itachi, fell into silence.
What they longed for was peace!
"Peace." Natsuo touched his chin.
Compared to other fantasy worlds, the Shinobi World has a very peculiar point. Both the good and the bad, in the end, aim for peace in the world.
It's okay if the main character Naruto's goal is peace, the villain Nagato's goal is peace, Obito's goal is peace, Uchiha Madara's goal is peace.
Orochimaru longed for immortality because he saw the fragility of life in war. Jiraiya hoped to find the Child of Destiny and protect the world. Tsunade inherited the will of First Hokage and hoped to protect the peace of Konoha...
Even the reason why the Final Boss Kaguya and the brothers Hagoromo and Hamura fought among themselves was actually because of the need to create the White Zetsu army to defend themselves from the future invasion of the Otsutsuki clan.
In a sense, it seemed like everyone was looking for peace. However, peace still could not be achieved.
After the founding of Konoha, there was a World War every fifteen years on average. Before the founding of Konoha, the situation was even more chaotic, with wars occurring daily.
In the Shinobi World... Could there be true peace?
"If possible." Natsuo said.
"Oh really?" Nagato raised his head, Itachi showed anticipation, Konan's eyes lit up, Mikoto couldn't help but said: "Natsuo, do you have a solution?"
"Complete peace cannot be achieved, but relative peace is not difficult." Natsuo spread his hands. "For example, if I were to publicly proclaim that anyone who starts a conflict will be eradicated along with their clan, I can guarantee that the shinobi world would be at peace the next day."
Actually, this is almost the same thing that Nagato wanted to achieve with the Ten Tails.
But the eyes of Mikoto and Itachi are sad. This peace depended entirely on one person, he was not much different from the First Hokage at the beginning.
Now that Natsuo is in his prime, everything is fine, but after his death, the tensions built up in the shinobi world will explode instantly.
With Natsuo present, there would surely be peace.
But without him...
The level of violence that the war would reach would be much worse than previous world wars.
Natsuo maintained a serene expression. In fact, not only was a peace similar to the First Hokage period achieved in the Naruto Series, but even when Naruto became Hokage in the future, the shinobi world was still at peace. But the main reason was the overwhelming power of Naruto and Sasuke.
But was it true peace?
Before Naruto even became Hokage, Kumogakure was already quietly researching the Chakra cannon that could destroy the moon.
Who would this high-powered weapon that is difficult to move be used against?
Needless to say...
Nagato's Ten Tails nuclear balance plan seems feasible, but in fact, like Senju Hashirama, it will collapse sooner or later!
However, this does not affect Nagato's expectation: "Natsuo, will you maintain peace in the shinobi world?"
"I won't do it." Natsuo shrugged.
Nagato: "..."
Everyone seemed a little discouraged.
"It seems they are not interested in the latter approach." Natsuo smiled. "But there are still other ways."
"As which?" Konan asked in a less than hopeful tone, not expecting much from Natsuo's response.
"For example, we could start with improving the technological level. Chakra can be used together with technology to improve the productivity of the entire society."
"We could use space ninjutsu to develop a much more effective method of transportation, we could also improve existing means of transportation and explore the rest of the world."
"Even developing spacecraft to explore the universe and visit other planets. All of this could also achieve our goal." Natsuo said with a smile.
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard the words.
Through technology? Spaceships? What does that have to do with peace?
"You guys have too little understanding of the reason why the war broke out." Natsuo shook his head. "The reason why war breaks out is because the party that starts it is dissatisfied with the current state of affairs and wants to change the current distribution of resources to obtain more benefits."
Whether it is in the shinobi world or in Natsuo's previous life, the fundamental reasons for the war are the same!
"But you always attribute the outbreak of war to hatred...how much is hatred worth?"
Natsuo looked disdainful. "Even the Sage of the Six Paths is the same, I hoped that the chakra would promote mutual understanding between people... but what's the point of understanding someone if it doesn't satisfy my hunger?"
Nagato frowned and was about to speak.
But Natsuo saw what he wanted to say at a glance and said directly: "I know what you're thinking. You want to divide resources between the two warring parties, right?"
"So what if there aren't just two groups in conflict?"
"If there are a hundred warring factions, how many parts would you divide the resources into?"
"Is the real solution to let everyone take a bite and go hungry together?"
"Or kill the ninety-nine factions so that one can be satisfied?"
Natsuo shook his head. "None of the above".
"The real way to achieve peace is to make the pie bigger." Natsuo said without hesitation. "For example, if we improve maritime transportation, we could exploit the marine resources that exist in the ocean, in addition to exploring the rest of the world, finding unexplored places, obtaining resources and feeding the population of the shinobi world."
"Same with traveling to other planets. Essentially, it's about colonizing other planets and taking advantage of their additional resources to feed our people in the shinobi world."
"If you want to achieve peace, this is the best path I can think of."
First it unifies the shinobi world, then it promotes technological development. If the level of development of Natsuo's world is reached before his time travels, it is enough to support a population as small as the one that currently exists in the Shinobi World. This without taking into account that there is access to energy such as Chakra and Natural Energy...
Of course, there will be a lot of chaos this way. The first to oppose this type of progress will be the Nobles and Daimyos.
But at least, after the turmoil the World will be at peace for a long time.
Konan was stunned, while Mikoto was a little worried. What kind of peace is this that Natsuo is proposing?
On the other hand, Itachi and Nagato, accustomed to the horrible realities of the shinobi world, narrowed their eyes upon hearing this. They seemed contemplative, as if they were considering the idea.
They don't want to be as naive as Konan. Nagato can even come up with a plan to deter countries with the equivalent of nuclear weapons, so he didn't dislike this idea if it meant minimal cost to peace in the shinobi world.
"Maybe I should try it." Nagato stroked his chin, his eyes full of emotion.
Natsuo, seeing Nagato's expression, was surprised. 'Was he seriously considering this? I was just talking for the sake of talking!'
...
Nagato was actually considering the idea! He disappeared that same night and returned three days later, full of enthusiasm, but also covered in cosmic dust...
Konan and Itachi wondered how Nagato had ended up in outer space and what he had found...
But then, they felt relieved. They had seen a lot and deep down they knew that the reasons Natsuo had given were correct.
And now, Nagato seems to have found a way to make the cake grow himself.
He shared with Konan what he had found when he explored outer space. He had seen a land mass that was much larger than the Elemental Nations. He also explored the Moon and that made him realize that it was possible that there were other planets to explore.
He immediately took Konan to begin planning how to best utilize what he had just discovered.
Itachi also joined them. Itachi's desire for peace had never been less than that of others. And after Nagato's explanation, he also shared with them that actually the Uchiha clan already has very advanced ship models. Although they were not yet advanced enough to make a long voyage on the high seas.
After a few days, Kakuzu, newly appointed Minister of Finance of the Uchiha clan, heard about their plans and also joined voluntarily. He didn't care that much about peace, but he knew very well what a new continent meant. The first to arrive will be the ones who will get the most profits. This is without counting the enormous prospects for space resources to be exploited.
He, Kakuzu, also wanted to follow the trend of the times and make sure to take the biggest slice of the pie in the future.
