The Three Great Sage Regions Were the True Masterminds Behind the Shinobi World
If we connect the clues found on the battlefield in the Land of Fire with the information gathered by Hinata and Jiraiya, many things will become clear.
Tsunade's expression was extremely solemn; this might be a massive conspiracy about to sweep across the entire Shinobi World.
In the dark corners of the Shinobi World, there are also extremely powerful beings who secretly manipulate the development of the Ninja World.
No one likes having their fate controlled by others, and no one wants their world to be manipulated by others.
Thinking about all this, Tsunade felt not only a sense of urgency but also a deep anger.
That was the deepest killing intent directed at the mastermind behind the scenes.
Hinata kept stealing glances at Tsunade, feeling a little uneasy.
Even though Tsunade still trusts her completely, Hinata still feels guilty.
Perhaps they haven't quite mastered the skill of being 'thick-skinned and ruthless' yet!
Hinata has an incredibly thin skin, and she's also a very kind person at heart.
Hinata, what are your thoughts on this?
Tsunade looked up at Hinata and asked, "Was your experience with Jiraiya orchestrated or a coincidence? What's your opinion on that?"
Hinata scratched her head and analyzed seriously, "It's hard to say whether it was deliberate or a coincidence for now, but the Pervy Sage thinks it's more likely to be deliberate."
"But the battle in the Land of Fire... Although I haven't seen the battlefield with my own eyes, I've heard about it before. Even I couldn't have caused such widespread destruction!"
"When he fought Deidara of Akatsuki last year, his jutsu had a very large destructive range... but he's already dead."
Tsunade said in a deep voice, "We have compared the traces of the two battlefields in the Land of Rivers and the Land of Fire. In terms of scope, the traces in the Land of Fire are slightly larger, but not by much."
"The difference between the two lies in the depth of the damage to the ground."
As Tsunade spoke, she took out several photos from a file folder, which showed aerial views of the battlefields in the Land of Rivers and the Land of Fire.
Deidara's Ninjutsu only leveled the ground, while Chibaku Tensei created a huge crater in the ground.
The two are completely incomparable in power.
Moreover, unilateral destruction and the destruction caused by the aftermath of a battle are two completely different concepts.
Hinata tentatively said, "If one side in the battle is indeed an enemy from outside the world, then the other side... is very likely the mastermind behind the conspiracy."
Tsunade nodded in deep agreement upon hearing this.
"Based on the clues we have so far, some people know that there are enemies outside the world, and their mission is to resist these enemies."
"To deal with these powerful enemies, they must combine the power of Nine Tailed Beasts to contend with them!"
Despite this, Tsunade's expression conveyed a sense of disapproval.
This is where the arrogance of the Five Great Shinobi Villages lies.
Accustomed to being high and mighty, accustomed to controlling the world's discourse, they believe their peace is the world's peace. Even if there are so-called powerful enemies outside the world, they believe that the Five Great Shinobi Villages should deal with them, not others.
Especially since this also involves the Tailed Beasts.
In the Original Story, the so-called Allied Shinobi Forces did not involve any minor Shinobi Village. The Daimyo protected by the Five Great Shinobi Villages were simply the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations.
The Five Great Shinobi Villages simply wouldn't care about the fate of these small countries.
Hinata was willing to bet that even if the Otsutsuki clan descended upon the Shinobi World right now, and only the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki could contend with them, the Five Great Shinobi Villages would not easily hand over their Tailed Beasts, but would instead rely on the so-called Allied Shinobi Forces to fight against them.
However, these are merely matters of perspective and have nothing to do with good or evil.
Once the stance of the Konoha Ninja is established, their thinking will be based on the overall interests of Konoha, rather than sacrificing their own interests for the sake of others.
Hinata and suggested, "Why don't we pass this information on to the Pervy Sage?"
"Isn't the Pervy Sage investigating these matters? With this information, he can carry out his work more effectively!"
Tsunade nodded and said, "I had already informed Jiraiya before you even returned!"
Hinata lowered her head, feeling somewhat ashamed.
Seeing that they couldn't come up with anything useful, Tsunade looked at Hinata and said calmly, "Hinata! Go back and rest today, and come back to work tomorrow morning. You can also learn some of the theoretical knowledge that Jonin must master!"
"Yes!"
After leaving the Hokage Building, Hinata's heart, which had been pounding like a deer, finally calmed down.
Tsunade shared this information with Hinata, demonstrating her continued trust in Hinata. It's clear that Jiraiya and Tsunade had already been in contact, suggesting that Jiraiya Mount Myōboku.
Perhaps Mount Myōboku wanted to minimize its presence during the 'Sealing Kaguya' incident, probably because it was afraid of other Otsutsuki coming after it!
Of course, there could be other reasons as well.
In fact, it is not difficult to see the attitude of the Three Great Sage Regions towards the Shinobi World from Konoha's attitude towards the minor Shinobi Village.
As one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, Konoha is extremely arrogant towards minor Shinobi Village.
The Three Great Sage Regions influenced the Shinobi World for a thousand years through their Summoning Beast. Judging from the name "Three Great Sage Regions," one can tell that those Toad and snakes must have been high above, looking down on the masses of the Shinobi World like saints.
This isn't Hinata deliberately disparaging the Three Great Sage Regions. The Three Great Sage Regions have controlled Natural Energy for over a thousand years; even an old Toad can live for a thousand years by relying on Natural Energy.
However, the Shinobi World knows very little about Sage Mode.
This clearly indicates that the Three Great Sage Regions deliberately concealed information about Natural Energy.
Therefore, it is reasonable to some extent that Jiraiya Mount Myōboku.
The biggest flaw in Hinata and Black Zetsu's plan was actually the Sage of Six Paths and the Three Great Sage Regions, because they were all familiar with the history of the Shinobi World.
The Sage of Six Paths 'Chakra still circulates in the world, and he should already be aware of Hinata and Black Zetsu's actions.
Perhaps there's a connection between the Sage of Sage of Six Paths' Chakra and the Great Toad Sage!
Their decision not to stop Hinata and Black Zetsu's plan at this moment might be because they want to launch a fatal blow at the most crucial moment.
This is very likely.
However, this way, at least until the final battle, neither the Sage of Six Paths nor Mount Myōboku will uncover Hinata and Black Zetsu's conspiracy.
Or perhaps the Sage of Six Paths and Mount Myōboku already knew that Hinata wanted to leave the Shinobi World with Kaguya, and that this was in their best interest.
However, these are just a few of the possibilities.
Hinata didn't want to put the choice of enemy as the key to victory.
As Hinata was thinking, she had already arrived at her doorstep.
Having not been home for nearly two months, Hinata washed up and went back to her room to rest.
During those two months of traveling, Hinata really missed her own little bed.
"Ultimately, strength is the key to everything."
As a variable in the Ninja World, if Hinata were to side with Kaguya Otsutsuki, it would be very difficult Hinata Naruto and Sasuke to seal Kaguya, given their combined strength.
"The key to making your plan flawless is to become stronger than anyone else!"
"I must train even harder!"
Hinata lay on the bed, hugging her blanket tightly, and made a silent resolution in her heart!
"I need to conserve my energy before I put in any effort... I'll wait until I wake up from a nap before I start training hard!"
