Night fell, yet the Hokage Tower remained ablaze with light.
Konoha's final war mobilization was—terrifying.
After Gojo Kaigetsu set the mobilization age at ten, the final number of Shinobi amassed was...
"Eleven thousand, one hundred and eighty-five."
Gojo Kaigetsu slowly exhaled.
This number was—astounding. Even he couldn't believe that Konoha, besieged during the Third Shinobi World War, could still field such a massive force.
From the seven thousand Shinobi listed in the Hokage Tower's roster, they had surged to over ten thousand.
Nearly doubling their previous numbers.
Undoubtedly, Konoha's war mobilization was a resounding success!
A Village's strength was evident in its ability to mobilize.
The organizational capacity to prepare and convert human, material, and financial resources for wartime.
Shinobi mobilization, civilian economic mobilization, technological mobilization, strategic resource reserves, resource development and utilization...
These were the foundations of modern hidden Village warfare, directly impacting a Village's overall strength, its ability to sustain a prolonged conflict, and ultimately, the war's outcome.
As the anticipated intensity of the war increased, Konoha's Shinobi numbers continued to climb. Villagers spontaneously donated supplies to the front lines. A thousand-bed field hospital rose from the ground. Konoha's scientific re
Though no official statistics existed, Gojo Kaigetsu suspected the average lifespan in the Shinobi World was less than thirty. In less fortunate times, even esteemed figures like the Hokage perished in their twenties, defending the Village—Life offered no guarantees.
Population was a precious resource. While possessing self-recovery and self-regulation capabilities, excessive losses in war would severely hinder a Village's future development.
Population was the primary productive force. A Shinobi who lived to sixty or seventy could contribute far more to Konoha's wealth than one who died in their twenties or thirties.
Setting aside everything else, when peace eventually arrived, and the Hokage Tower began manipulating the real estate market, preparing to empty the pockets of young Shinobi...
If all the young Shinobi were dead, who would need new housing? If the older Shinobi perished, whose pockets would Konoha pick?
Though crudely put, the logic was sound.
Therefore, from a Village development perspective, Gojo Kaigetsu had to prevent the premature deaths of Shinobi, striking a balance between winning the war and ensuring the Village's future potential.
Nara Shikaku, hearing this, lowered his head in shame.
Ultimately, he couldn't compare to Advisor Gojo's noble heroism...
"Fifth Hokage—Very wise!"
"Fifth Hokage—Very heroic!!"
"Fifth Hokage—Very wise and heroic!!!"
"Ahem!" Gojo Kaigetsu cleared his throat. "The Allied Shinobi Forces outnumber us significantly. A few hundred child Shinobi won't change the tide of battle."
