Chapter 355: Hidden Rock Village

Chapter 355: Hidden Rock Village

Naruto could only draw a few conclusions: the position in the clan is not important - it is not necessary to be the head of the official. Clan and position in it is one of the main factors influencing shinobi, which can give submission points. Personal reputation is in question, but it is the reputation in the clan (and possibly in the village) that is the most important factor in determining the ability of a shinobi to issue points. Since Ino (purebred Yamanaka) is the strongest among the relatives, excluding Sai, the strength (namely within the clan) is still in question.

In this case, the conquest of Tsume will answer the question - "does strength matter?". If this is not the case, then only one factor remains - reputation. Then, ignoring the abilities of the candidates, one can make clearer assumptions. If it is only a matter of strength within a particular family, then it will be much easier to identify the necessary figures for subjugation. In both cases it will be easier, but one thing is clear - the clan is very important.

Tsunade, in this case, as has long been clear, is in question. Even though she is the only representative of the Senju, she still bears that surname. In addition, it fits all the parameters for obtaining submission points. Her conquest basically won't answer a single question.

That's just the submission of Yamakage from the Hidden Rock will help solve the issue of quantity. Let's say if the theory about "fifty points" is correct, and the Kage position gives exactly that much, then it will be possible to calculate the correct number of people needed for a hundred points of submission. This is another reason why Naruto moved to capture this particular village.

If for his position, which he was almost eighty percent sure of, they gave fifty points, then considering the received five from Ino, it can be, although not exactly, but one can assume that he needs to subdue only five more people. Even if someone did not give five points, but let's say only three, then this number will decrease by another one or two people. In general, it will not come out hundreds, but still, quite a lot. In addition, by then it will be possible to accurately calculate who the system considers worthy of issuing village subordination points.

From all this, it can be understood that the choice of Ishigakure is not accidental. The reason is simple. In this small village, even if it is called "Hidden", there are only three clans! Moreover, it has personalities of the level of the Elders of Konoha. Of course, not in terms of strength, but position. They are highly respected by the entire village. If the theory is correct, then given Yamakage's position in his clan, only three people need to be subjugated - representatives.

An ideal situation for clearly defining goals around the world. That's why Naruto didn't waste time on female Kage, after all, this adventure is a purely male adventure!

Head of the Konjiki Clan - Ishin Konjiki

Head of the Akarui clan - Yagura Akarui

Head of the Hai Clan - Sato Hai

Three clans with a strange history of enmity and friendship...

The strongest are known to be Konjiki. Naturally, by virtue of its unique Improved Genome - the Element of Steel. Moreover, Lava Release or Steam Release owners are often born in this clan.

The other two clans are also not so simple.

Akarui are the perfect Lightning Release wielders. It is partly because of their association with Konjiki that the whole village is so prosperous. They are not distinguished by genomes, but quite worthy swordsmen and excellent tactics. Their greatest merit is science. The clan literally specializes in technology. They say that it was with their participation that many electronic machines appeared in this world.

And of course the last - Hai. Storm Elemental Owners. The family that controls all the water resources of the village. It is ironic that it was this clan that often entered into political marriages with the heirs of the other two, in the hope of peace, but at the same time it was its representatives who were guilty of many uprisings and civil strife. Although, one thing is clear - together they are the perfect team.
