...

Gojo Kaigetsu leaned back in the chair in the Hokage's office, his hands clasped behind his head, a wide grin on his face as he listened to the system announcements.

The consecutive prosperity gains tickled his heart, leaving him wanting more.

If only the prosperity points could increase even further, it would be pure bliss.

His eyes lit up when he heard the words "high-quality citizens."

The Six Eyes beneath his black blindfold gleamed brightly.

What kind of information was hidden behind those words?

The term "high-quality citizens" encompassed a wide range of individuals. Apart from ninjas, there were many valuable professions in the shinobi world, such as scientists, master builders, tool smiths, and cryptographers...

And this time, unlike the previous +3 or +6 increments that resembled forum check-in experience points, it was a whopping 33 prosperity points!

"This indicates... perhaps due to the Kirigakure rebellion, the thoughts of those in the middle and upper echelons of the Land of Water's social pyramid have been significantly impacted."

This was fantastic news!

For the nation to develop, for the village to progress, and for Gojo Kaigetsu's new policies to take root in the shinobi world, high-quality talent was essential.

Establishing specialized schools for ordinary people would require a lengthy process. The fastest way was to poach talent from other nations.

In this closed-off era of the shinobi world, without war or a lack of opportunities in their home countries, how many talented individuals would willingly leave their homelands?

This time, it seemed like a big wave was coming.

After carefully selecting and absorbing these talents into Konoha, they could usher in another period of rapid growth.

Gojo Kaigetsu glanced at Minato, diligently working at his Hokage desk like a corporate slave, and couldn't help but sigh.

He, the highly paid advisor, had already delegated all his tasks. Staying in Konoha seemed pointless now. Why not... head to the front lines himself and make a big splash?
