The Shinobi World Is Shocked, Konoha Goes Bankrupt

After listening to her subordinates' report, Tsunade weakly into her office chair.

Then, clinging to the last shred of hope, she asked, "It's all gone, shouldn't we at least leave a little? ∑(✘Д✘๑)"

The messenger shook his head and replied, "All gone. The explosion even nearly reached Golden Wheel City near the Kinrin Mountains."

"Fortunately, because of the disappearance of Kekkei Genkai Ninjas at Mount Sumeru in the Kinrin Mountains, not many people have gone there recently, otherwise many people would definitely have died this time," the messenger said with some relief.

Tsunade nodded. This was indeed fortunate, but the compensation still had to be paid! (*꒦ິ⌓꒦ີ)

The Kinrin Mountains stretches for over 300 kilometers along the border of the Land of Earth, and is rich in forestry, agricultural, and mineral resources!

As a result, the Shinki were all blown up!!

This will probably drain Konoha's entire fortune!!

The losses are endless! Absolutely endless! (*꒦ິ⌓꒦ີ)

At the same time.

The Land of Earth, Iwagakure.

The Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, was a short old man, older than the deceased Third Hokage of Konoha.

At this moment, the bald, little old man with a conspicuous bulbous nose was sitting in the Tsuchikage Office, panting heavily, trying to calm his agitated emotions...

At the Tsuchikage's desk sat a beautiful young woman with long legs.

She is Kurotsuchi, the granddaughter of the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki, Kurotsuchi.

Seeing his grandfather so agitated, Kurotsuchi gently placed a cup of warm water on Tsuchikage's desk and comforted him, "Grandpa, although the entire Kinrin Mountains has disappeared, there were no casualties, which is something to be happy about."

Ōnoki's eyes widened. "This is something to be happy about?!"

"Don't you know that there are many Hideout of my Iwagakure on the Kinrin Mountains?"

"Establishing these Hideout must have cost an immeasurable amount of manpower and resources..."

"Now look what happened, everything was razed to the ground overnight! (ꐦ ಠ 皿ಠ)"

Have you found out who the culprit is?

Later, an angry Ōnoki waved his hand and said, "Forget it, who cares who did it? Just go find Konoha! (′д`σ)σ"

"That Hiruko kidnapped my village's Kekkei Genkai Ninja is from Konoha!"

"He's been hiding in the Kinrin Mountains all along!"

"The razing of the Kinrin Mountains to the ground must be related to him!"

Kurotsuchi, however, analyzed from the side, "Grandpa, let's put aside the issue of compensation for now. Don't you think that Ninjutsu, capable of leveling the entire Kinrin Mountains, is even more terrifying? (°ー°)"

After hearing his granddaughter's words, Ōnoki lowered his head.

"Really."

"In an instant, an area of 100 kilometers within a radius was flattened!"

"Even the God of Shinobi of yesteryear couldn't have achieved this level. T_T"

"That's right!"

"During the Third Shinobi World War, it seems that a certain race possessed a strange Secret Technique. Although its effects were not as great as the one that occurred at the Kinrin Mountains, the scene of its execution was somewhat similar..."

Kurotsuchi saw this as a clue and quickly asked, "Which race is it?"

"Uchiha or Senju?!"

Ōnoki shook his head. "No, it's not that. It's a little-known family, something like Spider... I'm getting old, my memory's failing me, I can't remember..."

"That's right! Tsuchigumo!"

Kurotsuchi frowned, her expression thoughtful. "I think I've heard of this family before. They've established diplomatic relations with Konoha, haven't they?"

"Yes." Ōnoki nodded. "Anyway, no matter what, the Kinrin Mountains incident is definitely related to Konoha! (′д`σ)σ"

"Just make them pay you back!"

On the other side.

At the epicenter of the explosion in the Kinrin Mountains, Shinki looked around in bewilderment.

"Huh?!"

"Wasn't I in the mountains when I was casting the spell? Where are the mountains? I can't see a single one nearby!"

"It's all flattened out?! ╭(°A°`)╮"

Shinki quickly realized that all of this was probably caused by his own Angry Hair Heaven!

Shinki: Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

He originally thought that the Angry Hair Heaven could erupt and affect a radius of hundreds of kilometers was just boasting.

After all, Bai Lang had used it when saving Tsuchigumo Hotaru, Shinki saw that the damage range was only a few hundred meters in radius...

So when he cast the spell, he was thinking that he could just envelop the entire Mount Sumeru within it.

Now it seems the power of 'Angry Hair Heaven' really isn't just hype!!

Afterwards, Shinki summoned its psychic Goshawk, which circled the ruins.

Then, to his horror, he discovered that the Goshawk had been flying over the ruins for more than ten minutes without escaping the blast radius!

Shinki looked down at the fresh brown soil exposed on the ground, which had been torn up by the Chakra, and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave!

"This... I'm afraid we'll have to pay a lot of money?!∑(✘Д✘๑)"

There's no way to hide it anymore. If Naruto finds out about the disappearance of the Kinrin Mountains, he'll definitely expose him and brag about it...

The Land of Fire, Konoha.

Might Guy's Team and his two companions were sitting in a circle, discussing something.

Rock Lee excitedly exclaimed, "Have you heard the latest bombshell news? The Kinrin Mountains in the Land of Earth has been instantly reduced to flat land!"

Tenten says, "That Hiruko is hiding on Mount Sumeru in the Kinrin Mountains, isn't that divine retribution?! ୧⍢⃝୨"

Neji said, "What divine retribution? This is clearly man-made!"

Tenten nodded. "Neji makes a good point, but looking at the entire Shinobi World, who has the power to turn the hundreds of kilometers of mountains in the Land of Earth into a flat plain?"

After Tenten finished speaking, the three of them fell silent.

The same name appeared in their hearts without prior arrangement!

Shinki!

Although Shinki hasn't yet demonstrated such destructive Ninjutsu, he's a Ninja always manages to push the boundaries of people's understanding!

They would believe it even if you told them that the Shinki was a deity living in the heavens!

While the three were engaged in a heated discussion, Naruto poked his head out, arms crossed, and said, "Ahem, no need to discuss anymore, it was Shinki who did this! ୧⍢⃝୨"

Tenten pressed for confirmation, "Really? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Naruto glanced at Tenten: "What's wrong with your brain? If I had seen it with my own eyes, would I still be standing alive in front of you? (||๐_๐)"

Tenten: "Then what makes you so sure? You have to take responsibility for saying things like that. →_→"

Naruto immediately chuckled, "Because, before casting the spell, Shinki was afraid of affecting me, so he specially sent me back to Konoha."

"My presence in Konoha right now is the best proof. (´∇ﾉ`*)ノ"

After listening to Naruto's story, Neji two exchanged glances.

If Shinki really did it, then... it's quite easy to accept!

Not far from them, someone who was paying attention overheard their conversation and quickened their pace in one direction...

The Hokage's Office.

Tsunade looked at the bills from the Land of Earth piled up on her desk and scratched her head helplessly.

"Shizune, how much money does Konoha have in its accounts?"

Shizune: "A few billion, I guess."

Tsunade:(´இ皿இ`)

That little bit of money isn't even enough to cover the losses!!
