Chapter 34: Valley of the End

It is both high and deep.

The turbulent waterfall is like a rolling wave, rushing down from the sky, violently hitting the river at the bottom of the valley, and stirring the flow rate.

Outside the Konoha Village, in the Valley of the End, Ryosuke and his two guards, Souji and Xingcai, stood on the surface of the rapid water, staring at the two huge, god-like sculptures.

The first generation of Hokage, Senju Hashirama.

The strongest clan leader of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Madara.

The valley is very deep. From the surface of the water where Ryosuke and the others are standing, looking up along the waterfall, it is like being trapped in a deep abyss without light, swallowed by darkness.

On both sides of the canyon, the stone walls carved with Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara appear lifelike under the scouring of the water.

Their faces are at the top of the canyon. Looking up from the bottom, it seems to be in the clouds.

The postures and looks of the two people seemed to have not given up their respective beliefs and conclusions until the last moment of the battle.

At the moment of their lives ending, they still maintained the movements before them, turning into two statues, arguing that their theories were correct.

"No matter how many times you see it, it is so spectacular."

Just as Ryosuke was quietly looking at the two statues in front of him, Hyuga Souji behind him said with some emotion, "Master Ryosuke, you may not know that our generation often came to visit the Valley of the End when we were students."

"And every time we come, the Uchiha in each class will always be more arrogant."

Hinata Xingcai also followed up with a conversation, "It's ridiculous that the entire Uchiha clan abandoned Uchiha Madara and supported Senju Hashirama's theory. I didn't expect that the descendants would actually start to regard themselves as the honor that Uchiha Madara had."

"But if Uchiha Madara had become Hokage back then, perhaps the ninja world would not have ushered in a peaceful era, but would only have been in war for years." Souji began to express his opinion again.

The two expressed their own opinions and talked about the Uchiha issue.

Ryosuke did not speak and followed them, but listened quietly to their narration, while looking forward to the traces left by the great battle that year on the Valley of the End.

Many rock walls in the valley have traces of being burned by high-concentration fire.

It should be caused by Uchiha Madara's fire escape.

Similarly, there are many traces left by Senju Hashirama.

Most of them are fist and palm prints.

These fist and palm prints are not made by hand, and they appear small in front of the huge canyon.

Instead, they are the big pits bombarded by the huge Guanyin statue condensed by Senju Hashirama's wood escape ninjutsu, the top Buddha in the true thousand-hand state.

Even the huge cracks in the valley of the end were caused by the battle between Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara at that time.

Is this really... the impact of the battle between ninjas?

With trembling hands, Ryosuke stroked the potholes on the rock wall expressionlessly, feeling the cruelty and fierceness of the battle at that time.

Decades have passed, and the traces left by the battle are still there, which shows how shocking the scale of the battle was.

Ryosuke's heart was surging, and there were few things that could make him so excited.

It was like he got a book of immortal cultivation in modern times, just practicing body building, and he was complacent because of his extraordinaryness.

But during an accidental trip, he suddenly saw the traces left by the ancient monks in the Yuanshen Crossing Tribulation Period, and suddenly it was like opening another door, a vast and solemn door.

This road has been walked by someone.

The journey on this road made him even more excited.

Normally, Ryosuke's battle with Hyuga Hiashi seemed to be a battle between ninjas, and it was already extremely powerful beyond mortals.

But now, coming to this deep valley, he understands what is truly extraordinary.

The more turbulent his heart is, the calmer his appearance is.

Expressionless is the most relaxed state of Ryosuke, and also the most excited state.

Only smiling is between the two, and it is the time when he is most vigilant.

Closing his eyes, Ryosuke took a deep breath to calm his inner excitement.

Slowly exhaling the turbid air, when he opened his eyes again, the surging in Ryosuke's eyes had dissipated, and the only thing left was to face the heart of this ninja world calmly.

"Souji, Xingcai, it's time to go..."

A calm voice sounded, he slowly turned around, smiled and walked out of the canyon.

Since we have come to the Valley of the End and the edge of Konoha, it means... Ryosuke can finally leave the village.

In five years, he stepped out of that small village for the first time, ready to see the charm of this ninja world.

The long-awaited opportunity for actual combat has finally come.

In the heart of Hinata Hiashi, Ryosuke's status is very high, equal to or even superior to that of the family.

So even though he realized that there was nothing he could teach Ryosuke, he still kept suppressing him and did not let Ryosuke try to get involved in real combat.

On the one hand, of course, there is no chance, and on the other hand, he is reluctant to leave.

But now, Ryosuke finally found a chance to leave the village.

This time, his mission is to visit the daimyo of the Land of Fire, which is a routine for the Hyuga clan every year.

However, in previous years, it was done by the people of the branch family.

This year, Hyuga Hiashi plans to take this opportunity to arrange a not-so-difficult mission for Ryosuke to leave the village, and let him expand his horizons.

You can't stay in this village all the time and be a frog in the well.

The Hyuga clan attaches great importance to the mission of visiting the daimyo, and the word daimyo is not deep in Ryosuke's impression.

Or in other words, this kind of people are not outstanding in the plot line of Naruto, and there is almost no chance to show their faces.

But that is the world of comics after all, and Ryosuke is in the real world of Naruto.

Then the two are naturally different.

If you want to live in this ninja world, you must never underestimate these so-called daimyo and nobles. Even if they don't have the power of ninjas, they have much more than ninjas.

As for where they are more, it's the human heart.

Is the population of this world large?

Compared with Ryosuke's previous life, it's certainly not large.

Are there many ninjas in this world?

Many, after all, it is a ninja world, and there are still many ninjas with extraordinary powers.

So... in terms of the overall population, are there more ninjas or more ordinary people?

Without a doubt, of course there are more ordinary people.

Most of the population in the ninja world is occupied by ordinary people, and only a small number of people have the talent to become ninjas.

Ryosuke expected the difference in numbers between ordinary people and ninjas.

But as for the people in power in this ninja world, those daimyo and nobles who are just ordinary people are the ones who really have real power, which surprised Ryosuke.

Originally, he thought that with the power of ninjas, the daimyo and nobles of various countries should be more like puppets, helping the ninjas to manage the ninja world and help them control the ordinary people.

But what surprised Ryosuke was that the daimyo and nobles have always been the actual rulers of various countries, and they control the lifeline of their own countries.
