Chapter 309 Chiba Tetsuya, the man who influenced the ninja world's landscape
On the day of the funeral, the entire Grass Country mourned.
After all, for the people of the Land of Grass, the appearance of Tetsuya Chiba was truly like that of a savior in those legendary tales.
The original inhabitants of the Grass Country lived in poverty, and most of them were homeless and wandered from place to place.
But everything changed after Tetsuya Chiba appeared.
Their lives underwent a dramatic transformation, and even the nation's standing in the ninja world rose.
They were once a buffer zone between major powers, and a battlefield at the onset of chaos.
The Land of Grass is now the core of ninja commerce, and all goods and caravans traveling north and south pass through here.
But now, the person who changed everything is gone.
Tetsuya's funeral was scheduled for a sunny afternoon. Instead of building a luxurious cemetery, he chose a high place.
He said that being buried there would allow him to see the entire country from above and witness all that he had changed.
Similarly, the people of the Grass Country can see the high ground where he is from any direction.
Many people attended the funeral: representatives from various countries, village representatives, businessmen, workers, and elderly farmers...
Standing at the front of the funeral ceremony were Chiba Tetsuya's son, Chiba Ryo, his grandson, Chiba Satoru, as well as his apprentice, Tetsuya, and his grand-apprentice, Ichiraku.
When Tetsuya learned of his death, he was struck dumb and nearly fainted. Fortunately, Tsunade and Jiraiya happened to be eating ramen at the shop at the time. Thanks to Tsunade's superb medical skills, Tetsuya was saved. Otherwise, he might have followed his teacher in death.
The funeral was over, but the representatives from various countries did not leave; instead, they went to find Chiba Ryo.
Tetsuya looked at the representatives from various countries; he knew what these guys wanted to say and do.
"Everyone, I know why you've come here, so please follow me."
The group of representatives were led to the conference room in Daming Prefecture, where they began to express their respective demands.
They wanted to figure out one thing: now that the Land of Grass had a new leader, would the contracts signed before still be valid?
Tetsuya repeatedly stated that the contract was valid, even though the daimyo had changed, the previous contract was still in effect.
Most people were quite satisfied with the answer, but some were clearly not.
After hesitating for a while, the first person stepped forward, hoping to renegotiate the contract and gain more benefits.
Once there was a first, there was a second, and one after another, people stepped forward.
When some people want to gain more benefits, others will inevitably suffer losses.
No one wanted their interests to be harmed, and a quarrel broke out in the conference room.
In the end, everyone parted on bad terms.
The funeral ceremony in the Land of Grass has ended, but the tension in the ninja world seems to have intensified.
In Daimyofu, Tetsuya sat in front of his computer browsing the forum.
Some heated posts have started appearing on the forum, and friction has begun to occur between some small countries with conflicting interests.
However, so far, the five major powers have not made any moves.
"The situation in the ninja world is starting to fall into chaos. Is this what you wanted, Obito?"
Tetsuya had already roughly guessed Obito's purpose.
The ninja world appears unusually peaceful due to its own existence, as well as the existence of the Chiba Trading Company and the Business Alliance.
As a result, those ninjas didn't have many missions to do.
"In that case, let me give you a push."
With that, Tetsuya picked up his phone and dialed a number.
The contact name on the phone is someone I haven't seen in a long time: Black-faced, stingy devil, Kakuzu.
"Hey, Kakuzu, it's me..."
In the Hokage's office in Konoha Village, several ninjas wearing green vests stood side by side.
Their slightly youthful and immature faces bore a determination beyond their years.
Tsunade stood up and said solemnly.
"Congratulations on successfully passing the test. From today onwards, you have officially become Jonin of Konoha."
Becoming a Jonin means you've become the pillars of the village; the village's future rests on your shoulders.
After saying that, Tsunade picked up the token symbolizing her Jonin status from her desk and handed it to them.
Naruto was incredibly excited.
Finally, after two years, he successfully became a Jonin.
I'm one step closer to my dream of becoming Naruto!
Not only Naruto, but also Choji, Shikamaru, Tenten and Rock Lee became Jonin at the same time.
As for Neji, he passed the Jonin Exams smoothly the year after everyone else had finished their exams.
After all, he comes from a large family, and Neji is a genius in the family. Although it is only a branch family, Neji will not lack any of the education he should receive.
In terms of mental fortitude, coordination skills, and other qualities, Neji is far superior to Naruto.
Tsunade was very happy to see the younger generation in front of her.
The fact that young people have become Jonin shows that Konoha has successors.
Due to various reasons in the past, Konoha has lost a large number of talented individuals.
But now, there is hope for Konoha's future.
"Alright, you've all worked hard on the assessment all day. Go and rest now. We can have a good celebration tonight."
"Thank you, Lord Hokage!" *5
The five responded and left the Hokage's office together.
After leaving the office, everyone could no longer contain their joy and shouted excitedly.
They can't wait to go back and have a proper celebration.
Hearing the laughter outside, Tsunade became happy as well.
"There is hope for Konoha's future again."
"Clang!"
"Tsunade!"
"You're going to die, Jiraiya!"
With a roar, a book flew out of the window.
Jiraiya hung on the edge of the window, his face covered in cold sweat as he watched the direction the book had flown out.
Luckily, I almost got knocked away.
"What are you still hanging outside the window for? Hurry up and come in, or I'll slap you when I'm at my happiest."
Hearing Tsunade's reprimand, Jiraiya snapped out of his daze and quickly climbed in through the window.
Tsunade glared at Jiraiya.
"What's wrong with you? Why do you insist on using the window when there's a door? You're the Hokage's assistant from Konoha! Can't you be a little more mindful of your image?"
"I'm sorry, Tsunade, this is really a habit of mine, and the situation was urgent."
Jiraiya quickly explained.
"Tsunade, problems are starting to appear in the ninja world. The aftereffects of Chiba's passing are beginning to show."
Jiraiya's expression was extremely serious when he said this.
It might sound unbelievable, but that's the reality: Chiba Tetsuya, an ordinary person who wasn't a ninja, influenced the entire ninja world.
Now, with the passing of Chiba Tetsuya, the ninja world has undergone changes.
