Ohnoki: "Ni...Ni...Ni grandson! Ni son!!"
Kurotsuchi: "Oh~"
Kurotsuchi: "That's true~"
Kurotsuchi: "How about this, old man, you step down immediately, and I'll take over as the Fourth Tsuchikage right away. That way, I'll be a respectable young woman with a good background and a decent dowry!"
Onoki: "..."
I'm so angry!
Why don't you just let me die already?
...
["idiot!"]
After a moment of silence, Onoki, unusually, did not erupt in anger.
On the contrary, it was very serious.
"Stop having fun!"
"Also, you are not allowed to participate in this matter until you become a Chunin!"
Upon hearing the old man's words, Huang Tu...
[His eye twitched slightly.]
"Black soil!"
He was unusually strict with his own daughter.
"Don't be ridiculous!"
"War is coming!"
Heitu pouted, somewhat unwilling.
[Jump behind Onoki and loosen his shoulders.]
"Old man."
"Didn't the intelligence report say so?"
"That Naruto Uzumaki, the ruler of the Land of Whirlpools and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki... is only a year or two younger than me."
"Besides, even though I'm still a genin, aren't you the ones who forbid me from taking the Chunin Exams so early?"
"If only I had secretly gone to the Chunin Exams when Konoha invited me."
Onoki patted his granddaughter's hand with a hint of helplessness; she had practically resorted to underhanded tactics.
"Okay, stop fooling around."
"Also, the Land of Whirlpools... never mind, someone will come out and spread the news about what happened back then soon, no need to rush."
"So, this war..."
After hesitating for a moment, Onoki finally said, "There's no right or wrong."
"Go."
"Why are you pulling my beard?!"
Onoki's blood pressure immediately surged.
"Aren't you taking me?"
"Then I'll run to Konoha, I have a feeling Deidara is there!"
[Ohnoki: "..."]
[Wow! W ...
He was genuinely furious, gritting his teeth.
["OK!"]
["Yay!" Kurotsuchi immediately let go of his hand and made a peace sign.]
[loess:"..."]
Yes, you're happy now, but the old man will start yelling at me again later.
Onoki shook his head.
["loess."]
"Go and get ready."
"War is about to break out."
"We will depart for the Iron Kingdom in one hour."
"The Land of Iron?"
Huang Tu raised an eyebrow.
"Old man, is it really that serious?"
Black Earth blinked.
However, he didn't interrupt anymore.
"It's that serious."
Onoki took a deep breath.
"That one... is even more powerful than the Asura of yesteryear!"
"Go."
Onoki waved his hand.
The loess soil fell silent.
[He turned and left to prepare for what was to come.]
Time is of the essence.
Who knows when Konoha will make their move?
On the other side.
[Hidden Cloud Village.]
Is this true?
"Did the Daimyo say that himself?"
The Fourth Raikage frowned deeply.
[The man in linen clothes is holding documents.]
He nodded slightly and said, "Yes."
"It has been confirmed multiple times."
"It's not because they lost the Third Hokage and the Darkness of Konoha, but because they planned to spread rumors and use the First Hokage's reputation as the God of Shinobi to protect themselves."
"The news has been confirmed by the daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind."
"I'm afraid that Sunagakure will soon announce its secession from the Land of Wind and its return to the Land of Whirlpools."
["Also, this is accurate information."]
"The Land of Waves is a thing of the past."
"The daimyo of the Land of Waves even stated personally that he was also a member of the Land of Whirlpools."
"According to the intelligence we've received, the matter of Gato was the initial plan orchestrated by the ruler of the Land of Whirlpools..."
[The linen-clad woman said a lot.]
The Fourth Raikage grew increasingly agitated.
"The First Hokage, the God of Shinobi...has he really been resurrected?"
"And what about the Second Hokage, who was killed by Kinkaku and Ginkaku?"
Upon hearing this, Mabui's expression turned serious: "Lord Raikage, the Second Hokage's condition has deteriorated significantly."
"I specifically asked the daimyo, and the daimyo also contacted the daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind to confirm."
"Both of them...are very young after being resurrected!"
[In short, the Fourth Raikage couldn't hold back any longer.]
[Bang--]
[He smashed the table in front of him.]
"How are we supposed to fight this?!"
"The method of resurrecting the dead... I'm not going to have to use it against my father, am I?!"
[Heavy-clothed man reluctantly raised his hand and used the document to fan away the dust in front of him.]
["Raikage-sama."]
"Now is not the time to complain, every second counts."
Upon hearing this, the Fourth Raikage closed his eyes.
His chest heaved rapidly.
But she quickly regained her composure.
["good!"]
"Bring Killer Bee here, let's set off together."
"The situation is urgent; we must mobilize sufficient resources."
"It's both a crisis and an opportunity!"
"Never mind, I'll go by myself!"
"Go and tell Yukito and the Raikage's guards to do what they're supposed to do!"
"Summon all ninjas, war is coming!"
[boom--]
[The words fell.]
The Fourth Raikage has smashed through the floor-to-ceiling window of his office and rushed out.
[The man in hemp clothing watched this scene with a hint of helplessness.]
But she still strode out of the office with her long legs.
She's going to find Yukito.
[And Samui.]
This matter requires their help.
War... is really coming.
[On the road.]
[The man in line looked at the document in his hand.]
"Would a boy like that really do something he's not sure he can handle?"
Looking at that photo of the handsome blond guy.
[Her intuition told her...]
The ending was already decided.
[Based on accurate intelligence purchased at a high price.]
[From the words alone, Mabui could already imagine just how terrifying the power of Konoha, no, the Land of Whirlpools, truly was.]
"The Akatsuki... perhaps we could consider it."
"S-rank rogue ninja Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki actively invaded Konoha, but ultimately escaped unscathed..."
"We can't let this lead slip by."
["in addition."]
"Danger can also be an opportunity."
"The Land of Earth...in the style of the Third Tsuchikage."
"Those near the water get the moon first."
"It's impossible for Sunagakure to be of one mind. We can use this opportunity to absorb them and expand our territory. The Daimyo of the Land of Wind will have no choice but to accept it reluctantly."
"In contrast, both Kumogakure and Kirigakure are focusing their attention on the Land of Fire..."
"But...no matter how much we do, it all needs to be based on victory, even if it's a protracted war."
[The man in linen clothes looked up.]
On a distant building, a beautiful figure sat quietly, gazing into the distance.
[Her beautiful blonde hair danced in the wind.]
Beside the woman stood a strikingly beautiful woman with short blonde hair.
Her gaze was fixed on her own face.
It seems they had anticipated my arrival.
[The man in linen suddenly paused.]
[A piece of "insider" information I had received earlier, from somewhere, flashed through my mind.]
If it's true...
Linen Clothes: "I thought of that too, even in the world of black-framed glasses~"
