Naruto The Thunder Calamity

The war ended, starting with the disappearance of the Uchiha's Land of Moon trading company and ending with the fall of the Hidden Rain Village.

The war lasted less than half a year.

In this short time, Konohagakure's supreme strength was evident.

In the final battle, Tsunade was appointed as the commander-in-chief, sending a message to all of Konohagakure's higher-ups.

In the future, Tsunade would become the Third Hokage.

The Uchiha had no objections to this, as Uchiha Raijin was no longer just an Uchiha clan member to the Senju family.

In the eyes of the Uchiha, Tsunade was no longer just a Senju clan member.

So, the Uchiha had no objections to Tsunade becoming the Third Hokage.

The Senju family was even more pleased with this.

With no objections from the two top clans, the opinions of other families were not as important.

After all, everyone had to admit that aside from Tsunade's background, her own strength was among the best in Konohagakure.

However, this didn't mean Tsunade would immediately take the Hokage position upon returning to the village.

The war had just ended, and there were many things to handle.

In Senju Tobirama's view, Tsunade and Raijin shouldn't waste their energy on these matters.

For now, there was something very important that only Raijin and Tsunade could do.

The experiment for permanent Senjutsu.

So, upon returning to Konohagakure, Raijin and Tsunade immediately resumed their pre-war state.

Raijin's current obsessions were few, aside from rescuing Suisei from Black Zetsu, his only remaining goal was immortality.

In fact, Raijin was somewhat eager about this.

He wanted to develop permanent Senjutsu before Senju Tobirama died of old age.

Raijin was really curious about the sparks that would fly when a master of forbidden techniques collided with permanent Senjutsu.

Now, the progress of permanent Senjutsu had reached a good stage.

Through Tsunade's continuous dissections, a relatively complete meridian route was finally summarized.

Currently, Raijin was practicing running natural energy through this route.

The conclusion so far was that natural energy would strengthen the meridians to some extent.

Tsunade also began the second phase of the experiment.

By dissecting the human body, she summarized the corresponding natural energy meridian routes.

Senju Tobirama provided almost everything they needed for their research.

Whatever they needed, it would be delivered to the lab by noon if requested in the morning.

This treatment made Hiruko envious at times.

But Hiruko also understood that permanent Senjutsu and the Chimera Technique were completely different.

Most importantly, the Chimera Technique was nearing maturity.

In the transition from war mode to research mode, neither Tsunade nor Raijin felt bored.

In fact, developing permanent Senjutsu was more complex, difficult, and meaningful than war.

Once again, they reunited with their teammates and embarked on missions

In the ninja world, the presence of Konohagakure ninjas became active once more.

Although it was dangerous and tiring, every ninja had a smile on their face.

A lot of missions came to Konohagakure, but the number of ninjas didn't increase. In fact, because of the war, there were fewer ninjas than before.

The result was higher mission rewards.

Compared to other villages, Konohagakure's mission rewards were generally one-third to two-thirds higher than those of Iwagakure and Sunagakure.

As a result, Konohagakure's ninjas had more choices.

Not just ninjas, the Uchiha and Senju clans formed the Konohagakure Commerce Association after merging their businesses. In this association, Uchiha and Senju each held 40%.

The remaining 20% was shared among other Konohagakure families.

A commerce association made up of all the ninja clans in Konohagakure was officially born.

At the same time, Senju Tobirama was negotiating with the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder and the Land of Water about the loss of their hidden villages.

For now, it was unrealistic to send people from Konohagakure to establish new hidden villages in the Land of Thunder and the Land of Water.

So, Senju Tobirama was busy directing more funds to the ordinary villagers of Konohagakure.

This was to increase the birth rate in Konohagakure. More children meant more future ninjas.

Also, because many Jonin were lost in the war, Senju Tobirama had to raise the graduation standards of the ninja school.

Instead of graduating by mastering the three basic techniques, students now had to master a C-rank Ninjutsu to graduate.

The ninja school's curriculum also added one C-rank Ninjutsu for each element.

This requirement wasn't too high but wasn't too low either.

It helped filter out children with some ninja talent but not much.

After all, the learning environment in the ninja school was much better than in a team.

In a team, to get the teacher's guidance, you first needed the teacher's approval.

Getting the teacher's approval was a headache for every new Genin.

But in the ninja school, it was the teacher's duty to teach you.

As long as you wanted to learn, you could always learn.

So, after the Second Shinobi World War, Konohagakure, which had been developing steadily, entered a period of rapid growth again after six months of war.

The goal was to train enough ninjas to go to the Land of Thunder and the Land of Water and establish new hidden villages.

Before that, Konohagakure reached a preliminary agreement with the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder and the Land of Water.

The Land of Thunder and the Land of Water would invest a significant amount in Konohagakure each year, and Konohagakure would protect them from any threats from other ninja villages.

Kazekage, Tsuchikage, and Black Zetsu were furious but helpless.

Now, Iwagakure and Sunagakure could only huddle together for warmth under Konohagakure's shadow, seeking survival space under Konohagakure's pressure.

Sigh...
