The gap between rich and poor is an inevitable and natural phenomenon.
Even in the former Wave Country, there was a gap between rich and poor, but it was rare for even the relatively wealthy to not have enough to eat.
The Land of Rain goes without saying, as a country with a shinobi village.
Although it is not wealthy overall, the gap between rich and poor has widened over the years under the Akatsuki's management, and there are even places like Kabukicho and Bars.
A group of people who are used to living in luxury naturally don't think about having to rely on selling their labor to support themselves.
"Let them choose for themselves. Now is a very special period, and this method can only be used. Those who are willing to accept it will stay, and those who have opinions will be allowed to leave on their own."
"Of course, if anyone deliberately makes trouble, they must be severely punished."
The situation in the Land of Rain is different from that in the Wave Country. The Wave Country used to be so poor that everyone couldn't get enough to eat. Naruto gave them a full meal, and they naturally felt grateful to Naruto.
But although life in the Land of Rain used to be poor, it was still passable. In addition, in their eyes, a large part of the reason for the current situation is Nagato and Naruto.
It's normal for some people to have resentment. Those who don't want to stay can just leave honestly. He is not afraid of anyone leaking his information or anything.
"I understand." Konan nodded seriously.
After the words fell, the room fell silent again.
Naruto lowered his head and thought about the urban planning of the Land of Rain in the future.
Thinking, Naruto seemed to think of something, and raised his head and asked, "Speaking of which, Konan, do you still have your Exploding Tags?"
Konan, who was in a daze, was also stunned, and then shook her head with a wry smile.
"My Exploding Tags are hidden near your battlefield."
She had forgotten about it at the time. When she remembered it, the entire sea area that she had disguised with Exploding Tags had disappeared.
"Then this is a big loss."
The Land of Rain could have achieved financial freedom through Exploding Tags.
"Then how many Exploding Tags can you make in a day?"
Konan calculated slightly in her heart: "If the raw materials are sufficient, I can probably make three to four thousand Exploding Tags in an hour."
(This is a simple calculation based on 600 billion Exploding Tags. I feel that the actual number may be higher, which is too terrifying)
"Cough cough cough! How much?"
Naruto was stunned, his eyes widened.
Even if an Exploding Tag only sells for 300 taels, doesn't that mean that Konan can earn an Asuma in a few days?
"If the Chakra can keep up, it can be faster."
Konan naturally said a very terrifying thing.
"How much does a raw material cost?"
"Well—it only costs about dozens of taels a day."
Naruto suddenly realized that he could monopolize the entire Shinobi World's Exploding Tag market.
Others sell them for 300 taels apiece, he sells them for 200 taels apiece. Others sell them for 200 taels apiece, he directly sells them for 100 taels apiece.
Not only is the quantity large, but they're also cheap.
Once he's squeezed all the competitors to death, wouldn't he have the final say in the Exploding Tag market?
"Ahem, in that case, Konan, you can start manufacturing Exploding Tags in your spare time from now on."
"Okay."
Konan gave the classic response of a working stiff.
Naruto had also made a decision. Since they had ready-made technology, the Land of Rain would be responsible for manufacturing Exploding Tags from now on.
Although Konan's speed alone could probably match several factories, he couldn't keep her making Exploding Tags non-stop every day.
Naruto then looked at Nagato, who had been silent the whole time.
"Once things stabilize here, I'll take you to Wave Country."
"Hmm? Is there something you need me to do?"
Nagato asked with some confusion.
"First, I'll help you restore your body, and then I'll use your eyes for an experiment."
"Experiment? Don't you have the Rinnegan too?"
Although they weren't his own eyes, they had been on his body for decades. To just take them for an experiment, Nagato still felt a little uncomfortable.
Naruto looked at him with a "are you saying something pointless" expression. In the end, Nagato lowered his head. He really had no choice.
"Leader..."
"Don't worry, this experiment isn't without benefits for you either. Deva Path's body shouldn't have been destroyed, right?"
Konan next to him also wanted to speak, but Naruto interrupted her.
Nagato and Konan both widened their eyes when they heard this. Nagato subconsciously opened his mouth: "You don't mean to use that technique?"
Outer Path: Rebirth Samsara Technique, is one of the abilities of the Rinnegan, possessing the terrifying ability to revive the dead, but the price is that the user will lose their own life.
"The price of the Rebirth Samsara Technique is the loss of life, but Wave Country just happens to have a guy who can't die no matter what, so let's see how it works first. After the experiment is over, I'll put them back on you."
Nagato and Konan were silent for a while. After looking at each other, they both knew each other's answers.
"In that case, I will cooperate with the Leader's experiment as much as possible, but the matter of reviving Yahiko, let's talk about it later."
"You don't want to revive Yahiko?"
Hearing Nagato's words, Naruto was a little puzzled.
Nagato shook his head: "It's not that, it's just that Yahiko is too naive and idealistic. He wants to build a world where people understand each other, and he will inevitably oppose our plan."
"So, it's better to revive him after the Shinobi World has truly achieved peace."
"I think, Konan and I should be thinking the same thing, right?"
Nagato then looked at Konan, who also nodded in agreement.
Wanting people to eliminate hatred through mutual understanding is too cruel for those who have suffered, just like how they still haven't let go of their hatred for Konoha even now.
Repay kindness with kindness, and meet resentment with justice.
That's what the Wave Country textbooks say.
"I understand, then let's do that."
Naruto's expression became a little strange. Although these two were saying this now, in the original story, they seemed to have been persuaded by a few words and a novel, giving up the path they had worked hard on for decades.
Sure enough, the prerequisite for Talk-no-jutsu is having a big enough fist.
...
A few days passed quietly.
Most of the civilians in the Land of Rain chose to stay and rebuild. These people originally made a living through manual labor in the Land of Rain, so since their food and shelter were guaranteed, there wasn't much difference from their previous lives.
Similarly, many people chose to leave with resentment, but no one caused trouble. No one dared to joke with their own lives.
"There are a lot more eyes around here lately."
Naruto noticed that there was another batch of spies staring at them today, and they were becoming more blatant.
Was it because he hadn't paid attention to them during this period, so they had become unscrupulous?
"Do you need me to take care of them?"
Nagato asked. He had also noticed it a long time ago. If it were before, he would have taken care of anyone who dared to enter the Land of Rain immediately, but now the Leader is Naruto, and since he hadn't made a move, he hadn't taken action immediately.
"Yeah, being stared at like this all the time is quite annoying."
"Let's also send a small gift to those guys behind the scenes while we're at it."
