Chapter 1001: The Ten Ninja Higher Universities!
"Now you understand, the biggest trouble facing the Ninja World isn't the World Government, but that 'Gate of the Underworld', right?"
"There is no possibility of peaceful coexistence between demons and humans. They are inherently the embodiment of all the darkness and malice in the world."
Great Yama finished speaking.
Otsutsuki Hamura fell into thought.
Actually, he had discussed this 'Gate of the Underworld' with his elder brother before coming.
At that time, his idea was:
Since the two supreme demons had already been dealt with, and the remaining demons, including the upper demons, didn't seem capable of causing much trouble.
Then there was no rush to close it. It could be left open for the ninjas to use as opponents.
This way, the civil war among ninjas would end, but they could still frequently battle demons.
This would not only help unify the Ninja World, but also ensure that the development of ninjutsu, Chakra cultivation, and other aspects wouldn't stagnate in the face of the demon threat.
Crucially, the mortality rate of ninjas would be guaranteed, which wouldn't affect the Gedo Statue on the moon absorbing Chakra.
When enough Chakra had been gathered in the future, they could find a way to bring out the Ten-Tails and let it transform back into the Divine Tree to bear the Chakra Fruit.
But now it seemed that the danger level of this 'Gate of the Underworld' was more terrifying than imagined, so it had to be dealt with as soon as possible.
"You are right, Lord Yan Luo Palace."
Otsutsuki Hamura nodded in agreement.
"However, my elder brother had already gone to the Land of Swamps when I departed. I presume he should have dealt with the 'Gate of the Underworld' by now."
Great Yama chuckled softly, "I hope so. So, regarding the Otsutsuki Clan members who will arrive in the Ninja World twenty-three years from now, don't you hope our World Government can become your ally?"
Otsutsuki Hamura countered.
"Then what is your side's intention? It's impossible for all ninjas to belong to you. I'll say it again, what we want is affiliation, cooperation. Basic autonomy and armed forces are our bottom line."
Since he couldn't think of a better idea, he might as well throw the problem back at the other party.
"Then... how about leaving the right to choose to the ninjas?"
Great Yama smiled slightly.
"What do you mean?"
Otsutsuki Hamura suddenly had a bad premonition.
"It means exactly what it says. Whether it's the current ninjas or the ninjas who graduate from the major Ninja Higher Universities in the future, let them decide for themselves whether to join your Shinobi Sect and protect their hometown, or join our Sea Ninja Village and conquering ten thousand worlds for the World Government, or neither, and simply become rogue ninjas, free to act as long as they don't violate laws and regulations. How about it, isn't this proposal great?"
The corner of Great Yama's mouth curled up, but inwardly he was cheering, "Father is brilliant!"
This method is simply amazing!
In fact, Im had long anticipated that Otsutsuki Hamura would not agree to have all ninjas default to the jurisdiction of the Sea Ninja Village, so he had come up with this seemingly fair idea in advance.
It was a term he was extremely familiar with from his previous life.
Talent competition!
This would depend on whose attraction was greater.
Im truly didn't believe that Otsutsuki Hamura and Otsutsuki Hagoromo could compete with the World Government, which held the Star Gate.
As expected.
From Otsutsuki Hamura's troubled expression, it was clear that he also understood this point.
But he couldn't think of an excuse to object.
This proposal was indeed fair and showed full respect for the ninjas.
What else could he say?
"Alright, but I hope all ninjas originating from the Ninja World must register their information with the Shinobi Sect. After all, no matter what, they are people of the Ninja World..."
Otsutsuki Hamura struggled to fight for his side.
"Hmm, that's acceptable. We can have the Sea Ninja Village and the Shinobi Sect share ninja information."
Great Yama thought for a moment and agreed.
"Then please wait a moment, I'll look at this second document." Saying this, Otsutsuki Hamura picked up the "Ninja Education System Plan" from the tabletop and began to read it.
The content of this document was not only extensive but also very detailed.
It stated that Konoha, Sunagakure, Kumogakure, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure, the Five Great Ninja Villages, would be renovated into comprehensive Ninja Higher Universities.
In addition, there would be five specialized Ninja Higher Universities focusing on puppetry, genjutsu, sealing, barrier jutsu, and medical ninjutsu.
Below these ten Higher Universities, other small ninja villages would be renovated into middle or elementary ninja schools, recruiting children with shinobi talent who were willing to become ninjas.
However, these middle and elementary schools were not qualified to issue ninja certificates and headbands.
Only students who graduated from the ten major Higher Universities would be considered true ninjas.
However, most would only be Genin, with only a few outstanding individuals potentially graduating as Chunin.
As for Jonin... the plan stipulated that they must pass the Sea Ninja Village's assessment.
Seeing this clause, Otsutsuki Hamura's mouth corner twitched.
If this were the case, wouldn't their Shinobi Sect have no Jonin in the future?
"Lord Yan Luo Palace, our Shinobi Sect should also have the qualification for Jonin assessment, right?"
"You can certainly have your own regulations, but the World Government only recognizes the Sea Ninja Village's assessment result."
Hearing Yama's words, Otsutsuki Hamura was instantly speechless.
This meant that the World Government would not recognize the Shinobi Sect's Jonin. At most, they could play their own game within the Ninja World. In that case, who would become a Jonin of the Shinobi Sect?
Anyone with a brain could see that the future would inevitably be an era of multi-world connection.
The quantity of worlds would only increase as the World Government's conquest continued.
"Of course, we can also accept Chunin, or even Jonin, from the Shinobi Sect to submit a Jonin assessment application to the Sea Ninja Village. Upon passing, they will be given the relevant ninja certificate."
Great Yama wore an expression suggesting they were kindly giving way.
This ninja rank was not just a rank. According to the explanation in that plan.
Ninjas of different ranks would enjoy different benefits and treatment under the World Government.
For example, in terms of shopping and medical expenses, they could receive different levels of discounts based on their ninja certificate.
Or they could enter civilian restricted areas of different levels, and even possess law enforcement authority to arrest criminals.
Currently, Jonin was the highest level among ninjas.
"Can't the World Government recognize the ninja ranks of the Shinobi Sect?"
Otsutsuki Hamura asked unwillingly.
"This is not possible. The Sea Ninja Village is currently a special operations department directly under the Military Command Department. We must strictly control the comprehensive quality of every Jonin!"
Great Yama immediately shook his head and refused without any politeness.
"Comprehensive quality?"
Otsutsuki Hamura was almost angered to the point of laughter. "Lord Yama, when it comes to the cultivation and assessment of ninjas, our Ninja World seems to have more experience than your side. Shouldn't it be our Shinobi Sect that needs to question the Sea Ninja Village's assessment method and result?"
"That's certainly no problem. The Shinobi Sect can also choose not to recognize the ninja ranks of the Sea Ninja Village. That's fine."
Great Yama waved his hand dismissively.
The Shinobi Sect's territory was just one Ninja World, while the World Government currently had seven, and even the Ninja World would be considered one of them in the future.
Each recognizing their own, who was afraid of whom?
And who would most ninjas choose?
"..."
Otsutsuki Hamura really wanted to say, you are bullying people by relying on your great influence/power!
But thinking of the mysterious and unpredictable Im, and the terrifying influence/power of the World Government.
He could only suppress the frustration in his stomach, which finally turned into a long sigh.
"Alas, then what about the ownership and management rights of these ninja schools?"
