"Starting today I will educate you all on skills and knowledge that are not Shinobi based, this will allow our Village to take a step forward as all the others remain behind. This knowledge will further your understanding on the changes that I have made and will be made in the future."
With that statement they all followed me into the main educational building. The curriculum will consist of reading, writing, math, economics, science, engineering and history. This will start at the basics then work its way up to the level of a bachelors degree back on Earth, This will allow my citizens to think at a level that they never have before, to question things, create, develop new ideas and inventions that will push us further. This training will continue everyday until I have ensured that each and every individual has absorbed the knowledge.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Time limit of both Orochimaru's kidnapping expedition and the shinobi sent out to negotiate trade with other nations has come.I cut the Re-education training short for that day and return to my office where I find the shinobi I sent out with a few additions to their group. I take a seat at my desk then ask for a report of all the status of Nation cooperation.
"Lord Yorukage, All Nations accepted your conditions with extreme enthusiasm and extend their most sincere gestures to Welcome you to the region. The Land of Volcanoes has dispatched these individuals to ask for your assistance on a specific matter."
*Envoy From the Land of Volcanoes POV*
At first I was extremely skeptical of these people claiming to be Shinobi. They arrived out of no where to claim that they were sent by the Yorukage in the Land of Night. This statement raised a number of questions, The Land of Night is a place that has nothing to offer why would shinobi settle there? How are they able to begin trade? How powerful are they? Is this Yorukage a capable person? So the Daimyo sent a few individuals including myself to the Land of Night to inspect this village to determine its capabilities both economic and military wise.
When we arrived at our border with the Land of Night we were utterly shocked. The wasteland that it once was is no more, Trees stretched as far as the eye could see. A large Border checkpoint was also erected with 10 Shinobi on guard, a small Kunoichi walked toward us and asked what our business was in the Land of Night. It was at that point I realized that the Yorukage was an extremely capable person that already put measures in place to ensure his country's Sovereignty which forced other nations to respect it or face retaliation.
When we passed through the Border we entered the Forest, even during the day it was dark and eerie below the canopy of the trees. The Shinobi at the border told us this was the Midnight Forest which Lord Yorukage personally erected to bring wildlife to the nation. 'The Yorukage can erect a forest of this magnitude!?' I always heard stores of the Shinobi to the east however, to witness their prowess first hand completely overturned my world view.
The Forest was absolutely massive. Tress of all breeds, Ponds, streams, Rivers, grasses, bushes with wild fruits, The Midnight Forest itself was enough to provide a humongous source of income to the Land of Night. As we got closer to the Village the Tress began to grow much taller and more light began to flow trough them to brighten up the forest causing a picture worthy environment. Many birds and other types of wild life could be herd scurrying around, Large Mountains also began to revel themselves in the distance. 'The Yorukage created all of this.' I subconsciously gulped down a mouthful of saliva, to be able to create all of this alone his power was a deterring factor itself.
Only a fool would attack this Country! even if the other shinobi are not as powerful, the Kage alone could wipe our nation from existence! I cannot even Fathom this!
Our Travel continued until we reached a large lake at the base of the colossal Mountains towering in front of us. At the center of the lake there was a beautiful collection of buildings with a bridge that led to a passage which traversed trough the center mountain. Many shinobi traveled to and fro the buildings as well as the passageway. There was no way to reach this structure in the center of the lake from where we were so we could only go around the mountains, Trespassing on that area could be seen as an act of aggression by the Land of Volcanoes. I refuse to be the cause of an unwinnable war with the Monster that resides within this Nation.
We later arrived at the Gate of the Yamigakure, the very presence of the gate pressured us all into submission. Its grandeur was undeniable, it was made out of graceful white stone and dark brown wood giving it a look of elegance. The Word Yamigakure with the symbol of the village were the finishing touches, Two Shinobi stood guard we told them our purpose then made our way in.
The sight that welcomed us was beyond my expectations, Sidewalks that were neatly paved lined with houses and other forms of buildings which sat along 3 rivers. As we walked we saw may shinobi rushing pass us in both directions looking extremely busy, when we arrive at the Yorukage's mansion its splendor outclassed everything in its surroundings. This intimidated us all, Inside this building resides the one who created this all.
We walked in the building, what welcomed us just intimated us even further. The Large Black stone pillars which rose out of the white floor, The symbol of the Village embedded in the center of the pillars. The many shinobi entering and exiting an office directly ahead of that symbol 'The Yorukage's office'. I was getting more and more nervous as we waited our turn to be seen, when it finally arrived we entered that room and immediately we felt suffocated.
The power radiating off of his body demanded attention and respect, The Grace in all of his actions forced subservience, you could only bow your head. The Shinobi we arrived with all knelled and the leader of the group began speaking.
"Lord Yorukage, All Nations accepted your conditions with extreme enthusiasm and extend their most sincere gestures to Welcome you to the region. The Land of Volcanoes has dispatched these individuals to ask for your assistance on a specific matter."
The Yorukage nodded his head then directed his attention toward me, when his eyes met mine I felt small and weak. He then said "Speak."
His tone made it sound as if the words out of my mouth would dictate the fate of my Country. My presence seems to be not only unwanted but extremely rude to him. However he is completely justified in his annoyance, the Daimyo was impertinent which makes my visit extremely impudent. I have nothing that can justify the actions of my nation's blatant disrespect to Lord Yorukage. All I can do is attempt to defuse the situation.
I bow and begin speaking "Lord Yorukage, please excuse this blatant disrespect to yourself and the Hidden Darkness."
"You are misunderstanding something. You aren't disrespecting the Village, you are Disrespecting My Nation!" At that moment a wave of Chakra was released from his body which caused us all to plummet into the hard stone floor. His anger was projected not only onto us but it would appear almost everyone in the village felt that Chakra surge because a team of Shinobi appeared before Lord Yorukage immediately.
"Please quell your anger Lord Yorukage we have come to ask for your help!" This was the only thing I could think of to save not only my life but the lives of all whom reside within the Land of Volcanoes.
"What do you require from Me?" His tone changed and the chakra disappeared without a trace along with the Shinobi that appeared. My life was literally a moment away from vanishing.
"Lately the Land of Volcanoes has been getting attacked by the Land of Iron. Due to the Mountainous enviroment there are many raw materials hidden below the surface, The Land of Iron is attempting to claim those Lands for themselves."
"And What do you need from me? This does not sound like my problem."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Starting today I will educate you all on skills and knowledge that are not Shinobi based, this will allow our Village to take a step forward as all the others remain behind. This knowledge will further your understanding on the changes that I have made and will be made in the future."
