Side note I sometimes get the feeling from some of the fragments of Naruto that I've watched that the series is set in a post civilization collapse
setting...You have scattered elements of high tech gear and then you've got all this low tech or early industrial age stuff mixed in...
it seems to me like a lot of anime: they cherry-picked the technology they wanted to use and left the rest with no explanation.... the ninja have
electricity, radios and tv, but no automobiles... and guns are rarer than hen's teeth, but not entirely unknown. i've seen some fanfic explain it
away as post-apocalypse left-overs and others as "summoned" gear that they had to figure out how to use, but could not innovate or improve upon...
in either case, i apply the bellesarius maxim and move on...
Don't forget that they also have motor-boats and construction cranes too, and they are common enough for Wave country, a place small enough not to have a
significant military presence, to have had them
