Chapter 707, Colonial Competition
Chapter 707, Colonial Competition
Moreover, with these colonies, small spacecrafts can also receive supplies, and Jupiter's asteroid belt is no longer a natural moat. And there are more and more spaceships manufactured in the ninja world. In the past, Jupiter's asteroid belt was too far away. They didn't have the chakra of Nine Tails, nor the amount of chakra of Xu Qiang. They could only watch the flowers of Konoha Village bloom. Huge amounts of gold. But now dividing it from Mars, the asteroid belt from Jupiter is only about 9 million kilometers away, which is a quarter less distance.
Although the distance is still very large, they can't wait any longer, not to mention that this year is the time when the Ninja World, Mars and Jupiter are all in line. It can be said that this year is the easiest to reach Jupiter from the Ninja World in 3 years. The time in the small asteroid belt has missed this time period. They will either build a larger spacecraft that can travel further, or they will have to continue boarding for another 12 years.
If they wait for 12 years, they won't know if the gold in Jupiter's asteroid belt is still there. After all, countries outside the ninja world have extended their tentacles to Mars, and their ninja world is still spinning around on the moon. They They can only risk their dreams of getting rich and rush to outer space, the land of wealth, with their simple spaceships.
Shimura Danzo Hikaru has been delivering supplies to thousands of spaceships at the moon's space station in this month, all of which were brought to Jupiter's asteroids during the period when the Ninja World was closest to Jupiter in 12 years.
With the arrival of these spaceships, Moon City is barely self-sufficient, but looking at these small spaceships of about a thousand tons, Danzo Shimura feels that they are going to die.
Facing lagging behind in the colonial competition, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that their ninja skills were poor, so he could only find Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara and Xu Qiang to find a solution.
When I arrived at Sarutobi Hiruzen's office, I heard Sarutobi Hiruzen talk about the difficulties in the ninja world, and then asked the three of them, "Teacher, what can you do about the current situation?"
Senju Hashirama heard Sarutobi Hiruzen's words and asked strangely, "I remember Xu Qiang didn't build a spaceship exceeding one million tons? Xu Qiang used him to reach the asteroid belt of Jupiter. With this big guy , logically we should be the first to reach Mars and establish a colony.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Xu Qiang with a bit of resentment and said, "It was originally like this, but Senior Xu Qiang released the Nine-Tails. Now the Nine-Tails are hiding somewhere, and a million-ton spaceship wants the Nine-Tails." Only the tail's chakra can drive it, other people and tailed beasts simply don't have such a huge amount of chakra."
"This spaceship is now controlled by our artificial tailed beast Yinglong from Konoha Village, but its chakra is less than one-tenth of the 9-tails. Now it can only sail on the moon and the ninja world."
Originally, Xu Qiang released the Nine-Tails, and Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't too worried, because with the Nine-Tails' physical strength, it couldn't even be hidden. Whenever they in Konoha Village want to capture it, they just need to bring 9 shadow-level experts with them. , their Konoha village now has shadow-level powerhouses who are not afraid of the 9-Tails at all.
But what Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't expect was that when he wanted to capture the Nine-Tails, he could not find the Nine-Tails in the ninja world. It completely disappeared. This made Sarutobi Hiruzen look ugly. The Konoha, which lost its energy source, no longer has the ability to move over long distances. It can only use Yinglong as a ship beast and as a transport spacecraft on the lunar space station and the Ninja Space Station.
Xu Qiang's face was a little helpless. This was really his fault. Originally, with the size of the Nine-Tails, it was impossible to hide it from the investigation of the Leaf Village. However, Xu Qiang taught the Nine-Tails the shrinking technique, and now he can shrink to the size of a real fox. This way Of course it's hard to find at first.
When the Nine Tails returned to the ninja world, they found that all eight of their friends who had lived for thousands of years were missing. This was something that had never happened before. You must know that they are tailed beasts. Even if they die in battle, they can be resurrected without appearing. Like today's situation, the Nine Tails was frightened and knew that their tailed beast's enemy had appeared, so it hid in a place where no one could find it, and its current size made it easier for it to hide.
At this time, Uchiha Madara said with a cold face, "Then what are you looking for us to do now? Do you want us to rush to the captain of the spaceship?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "I have this idea. Although the nine major tailed beasts in the ninja world cannot be found now, and the artificial tailed beasts are not strong enough, they can only run back and forth between the ninja world and the moon. But 9 Both of you are strong men of the Six Paths level and have more chakra than the Nine-Tails. I think it shouldn’t be a problem to fly the Konoha spaceship to Mars and establish a colony."
Uchiha Madara said with a cold face, "I won't do such a thing, you'd better give up on this idea. I have this time, I might as well practice."
From Uchiha Madara's point of view, staying on a spaceship would last for several months at a time, and he couldn't practice at all. It was simply a waste of time.
After saying that, Uchiha Madara left the conference room.
Senju Hashirama smiled bitterly and said, "It's true Madara, you don't have to be so direct when rejecting the call."
Then he asked Hiruzen Sarutobi, "Since other countries can establish colonies on Mars, then our Konoha Village can also do it, but now you haven't done anything, why?"
No wonder Senju Hashirama asked this, you must know that the difficulty of getting to Mars from the ninja world is more than a hundred times less than that of Xu Qiang's previous life. With Xu Qiang's spaceship, even if it is filled with chemical fuel, you can sail to Mars.
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled helplessly and said, "Our technology is not as good as other countries, and it is not cost-effective to force some people to go. It will consume a lot of resources of our ninja world, but there will not be much profit, and our ninja world has invested a lot on the moon." There are not many resources to invest in Mars. Originally, I wanted to study other technologies and start colonizing Mars, but I didn’t expect that everyone was so anxious and rushed into outer space one by one, so now I think of Teacher you."
This is not just what Sarutobi Hiruzen said. Originally, the steel production capacity of the Ninja world was not high, and it was only 5000 million tons at its peak. However, just one space station on the moon consumed hundreds of millions of tons of steel, which is the highest production capacity of the Ninja world. More than 2 times, not to mention the cost of building a city on the moon. In this one year alone, the ninja world has used up four years of steel production capacity.
Fortunately, the current ninja world has begun to expand the production capacity of steel. With the help of ninjutsu, the entire ninja world has been smelting steel for more than a year and building steel everywhere. Now, as long as it starts to smelt steel, it can be obtained Countless gold.
Now the entire ninja world has expanded its steel production capacity to 2 million tons, and new steel plants are still under construction. Sarutobi Hiruzen estimates that 10 billion tons of steel production capacity will be enough for the ninja world to use.
