Naruto: Rebuilding the Hidden Sand Village

Wearing the Kazekage’s hat, Rasa looked down at the smiling villagers and sighed.



“When I first became Kazekage, Sunagakure was nothing. No economy, no strength, no roads—just sand everywhere. One tiny lake had to serve the whole village. Ten shinobi shared a bucket of water for days.



I went to the council for funding. They slammed the table and said, ‘No money! If you want, sell our heads to build the village!’



So I did what I had to do.



In five years, we had roads, water systems, pigs in every home, and meat on every table. Our shinobi got stronger, our tools improved.



Without that foundation—how could I ever dream of standing against the Ōtsutsuki?”
