Chapter 259 Immigrants to an Unnamed Planet

The atmosphere in the royal council chamber was somewhat somber.

The ministers stood solemnly in the hall, holding reports in their hands, their breathing even lighter than usual.

The ninja world has been unusually quiet lately, with no new battles breaking out and no major powers provoking each other.

But this calm made everyone uneasy, as if it were the harbinger of an impending storm.

"Your Excellency, in recent months, the number of civilian immigrants has continued to increase."

The Minister of Revenue held a report in his hand, his hands trembling slightly: "According to statistics, more than 2000 million civilians from the Land of Fire have flocked to our country; in addition, more than 500 million nobles and merchants from various countries have immigrated here, and they are mostly concentrated in the newly created land areas."

The Foreign Minister pondered for a moment, then added, "The Land of Fire used to have a population of over 3 million, but after years of war, a large number of nobles and wealthy people immigrated to the Land of Water, causing a significant drop in the income of the common people. However, the taxes they paid did not decrease, so many common people couldn't even get enough to eat and had no choice but to risk their lives to flee here. Now, the residential areas on the new land are almost saturated, and accepting more immigrants will likely lead to resource shortages."

Uchiha Mitsunori tapped the table lightly with the fingertips of his left hand, his gaze sweeping over the data on the report.

The large-scale immigration of people from the Land of Fire was an important part of his plan.

A country that loses the support of nobles and the wealthy and relies solely on the exploitation of the common people to maintain itself will inevitably experience turmoil sooner or later, and will be more likely to be unified in the future.

After thinking for two seconds, he nodded slightly: "Don't worry about the resource shortage, I have my own arrangements."

Upon hearing this, the meeting room fell silent.

Seeing this, Minato Namikaze stepped forward: "Daimyo, recently, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kumogakure have sent many spies to infiltrate our Land of Water. They have been gathering intelligence on Obito Uchiha because they suspect the Akatsuki organization is connected to the Uchiha clan!"

Upon hearing this, a low murmur of discussion immediately filled the council chamber.

"What are the Hidden Stone Village and the Hidden Sand Village planning? Are they trying to join forces against the Land of Akatsuki?"

"The Land of Dawn, having only recently been established, has already occupied a large amount of territory. They must be afraid that the Land of Dawn's continued expansion will threaten their own interests!"

"But they sent spies to the Water Kingdom to gather intelligence; they're really disregarding us!"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sanfeng's expression remained unchanged. He said in a deep voice, "They want information about Obito, so let them have it! Including the Mangekyou Sharingan's Kamui, basic Wood Release ninjutsu... information about how he caused the Nine-Tails' rampage in our Land of Water and disrupted my wedding... Priced at 2500 million ryo, sell it to Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and the Land of Lightning. They want to target Akatsuki, let them play around, we'll just sit back and reap the benefits."

Minato Namikaze immediately replied, "Yes! I'll arrange it right away!"

Then, the ministers began to flatter: "Your Majesty, this 'sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight' strategy is truly brilliant. It allows you to exchange intelligence for money while also keeping other major powers in check."

Another minister flattered, saying, "They won't believe information given away for free. This way, we can make money, disrupt the situation in the ninja world, and buy more time for the Land of Water to develop."

Uchiha Mitsumine slammed his hand on the table, stopping the ministers from flattering him.

He then looked at the Minister of Revenue, his tone becoming serious: "Minister of Revenue, select 500 million commoners from the recent immigrants, prioritizing families with members, and tell them that I plan to settle them on newly discovered uninhabited islands for reclamation. There is ample land and resources there, allowing them to live a stable life."

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Minister of Revenue: "A newly discovered uninhabited island? That's wonderful! This will not only solve the problem of resource scarcity, but also provide a new place for civilians to go."

He immediately wrote down the order, secretly marveling to himself: His Majesty always manages to come up with solutions at crucial moments; no wonder the Land of Water can become a "safe haven" in times of chaos.

In fact, the so-called "newly discovered uninhabited island" was just a pretext he used to cover up his true intentions.

His real plan was to relocate these civilians to an unnamed planet.

The climate there is pleasant, the land is fertile, and there is no war or oppression. It is a true "pure land" where refugees can live and work in peace.

Moreover, as the species on the nameless planet become more abundant, more people are needed to build and live there, making it a true "second home".

After the meeting adjourned, the ministers left the council chamber to carry out their respective tasks.

The Minister of Revenue immediately organized people to screen immigrants and posted notices to inform the civilians of the news of the "new uninhabited island".

Uchiha Mitsunori returned to his bedchamber, closed his eyes, and used his consciousness to establish a connection with "Houtu" on the nameless planet.

In an instant, he "saw" the scene of the nameless planet.

The peach blossoms are still in full bloom, and the newly transplanted animals are running around in the forest. The previously designated residential area has already been filled with houses, just waiting for people to move in.

"Houtu, prepare to receive 500 million civilians. In the eastern plains, delineate new residential areas and stockpile food and fresh water in advance."

Houtu's voice was filled with excitement: "Received, Master! The soil in the eastern plains is very fertile and suitable for growing crops. I have accelerated the growth of the plants to ensure that the commoners will have food to eat and shelter to live in as soon as they arrive."

Uchiha Mitsunori nodded in satisfaction and severed the connection of consciousness.

Immigrating civilians to the nameless planet would not only solve the resource problems of the Water Kingdom, but also inject new vitality into the nameless planet.

Moreover, with a large number of life forms multiplying and thriving on the nameless planet, the amount of natural energy generated will increase, so as time goes on, his strength will become stronger and stronger!

Once the construction of the nameless planet is completed, even if a greater war breaks out in the ninja world, he will be able to live peacefully there with his family and people.

At that moment, Uchiha Mikoto entered with a cup of hot tea. Seeing her husband standing by the window, she softly asked, "Husband, are you still thinking about immigrating?"

Uchiha Mitsunori took the hot tea and pulled her into his arms: "Yes, we're preparing to relocate 500 million civilians to an unnamed planet; that's our real escape route."

Mikoto Uchiha leaned against him: "Your decision... is definitely for everyone's good. But... Itachi just awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan, if the ninja world descends into chaos... won't he be in danger?"

Uchiha Mitsunori lowered his head and kissed her lips: "Itachi has grown up, we must trust him. He has the ability to protect himself and his younger siblings. What we need to do is create a safer future for them."

Feeling her husband's restless hands, Uchiha Mikoto said coquettishly, "Husband...don't..."
