Declaration of War! The Fourth Shinobi World War

What's your opinion?

The Masked Man's voice echoed in the hall; he was waiting for Shinki's reply.

" Of the Nine Tailed Beasts, you have sealed three within you, and the remaining two are inside Naruto and Killer B respectively... With your help, my Eye of the Moon Plan will proceed much more smoothly."

A hint of laughter crept into the Masked Man's voice.

Shinki refused without hesitation. "I don't need to find a sense of existence in illusions, and besides, I've been dealing with you for so long, you should have seen my attitude by now. ┐(´-`)┌"

The Masked Man nodded, as if he had expected Shinki to answer in this way, and said with some regret, "That's such a pity. ㄟ(▔,▔)ㄏ"

At that moment, the Raikage suddenly noticed something, his voice rising abruptly and trembling as he asked, "Why didn't you mention Yugito Nii when you were talking about the Tailed Beasts?! (๑ʘ̅ д ʘ̅๑)!!"

The Masked Man chuckled and replied casually, "Because that Ninja is currently at Akatsuki's Secret Base, extracting Tailed Beast... (ﾉ∇︎ )"

Shinki was also taken aback upon hearing this.

(´°Δ°`)

What's going on?!

He just returned from Kumogakure with the Raikage, Yugito Nii has already been captured by the Akatsuki?!

After finishing his sentence, the Masked Man couldn't resist mocking the Raikage: "Speaking of which, you guys are really careless in protecting your Jinchūriki. How could a few Jonin possibly stop our Akatsuki... (｡◝ᴗ◜｡)"

Having said that, the Masked Man stood up. "Alright, I've said what I needed to say, and I've asked what I needed to ask."

"Since none of you are willing to join my plan, then there's nothing more to discuss."

"When I arrived, you Kage were planning to organize Allied Forces to completely wipe out our Akatsuki, weren't you?"

"Therefore, I, Madara Uchiha, hereby declare war on you all!"

The Fourth Shinobi World War!

After saying this, the Masked Man gave Shinki a deep look. "The next time we meet will be on the battlefield."

"Splash--"

After he finished speaking, an unknown fluctuation rippled through the space, and the Masked Man's body vanished!

The moment the Masked Man's body disappeared, Shinki's expression changed slightly. He seemed to have sensed Sasuke's Chakra in that instant!

Could it be...?

After the Masked Man left, Mifune said heavily, "The location of this meeting was extremely secretive; I never expected the Akatsuki would find it."

"Now is not the time to worry about such things. Madara Uchiha has officially declared war... The Shinobi World has only been at peace for a few years, and now it's in turmoil again..." The Tsuchikage said with his hands behind his back, looking weary.

Kurotsuchi Guard, standing behind Tsuchikage, looked at his grandfather and asked, "I've never experienced a war before. What is a real large-scale war like?"

The Tsuchikage shook his head and replied, "It's the kind of thing you never want to see..."

The impatient Raikage said, "Alright, now's not the time to chat. Let's hurry back and get ready."

"The enemy is in the shadows, while we are in the open. We need to organize Allied Forces as soon as possible and deal with them carefully. ٩(๑`^´๑)۶"

The Five Kage Summit has now concluded.

The shadows, having concluded their negotiations, planned to head home.

At this moment, Raikage approached the Shinki once again.

This time, without the Raikage saying anything, Shinki knew why the other party had sought him out.

"You want me to help you find your Two-Tails Jinchūriki, right?" Shinki asked.

The Raikage nodded, saying quite frankly, "I didn't expect the Akatsuki to act so quickly... If you can bring Yugito Nii back safely this time, the fee will be doubled!"

The doubled commission fee was indeed very tempting for Shinki, but Shinki wasn't in a hurry to accept this difficult task. He frankly said, "I've fought the Akatsuki several times, and they've developed countermeasures against my Chakra sensing, so I can't guarantee that I can find the Two-Tails..."

The Raikage shook his head and said, "It's alright. I don't expect you to bring back the Tailed Beast intact from inside her, as long as she's alive... I believe you have the ability to do so."

Shinki: "Since you've said so, Lord Raikage, then I'll accept this request..."

After sending Shinki and the Tsunade back to Konoha, Kamiki went to Kumogakure again...

In the Land of Rain, somewhere amidst the ruins of an ancient battle.

Kabuto completely concealed his body under his robe.

At this moment, he was forming hand seals on the innocent Ninjas bound within the Ruins, performing some strange Ninjutsu...

The next moment, dust covered the living person's body, completely transforming the innocent Ninja into a different person!

Kabuto asked expectantly, "Excuse me, are you the former Leader Amegakure, Hanzo of the Salamander?"

The Ninja who had been resurrected by Kabuto through a human Sacrifice scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I'm not Hanzō, I'm Hanzō's right-hand man... (lol)"

Dou felt this result was acceptable, since you can't always get the best card on your first try.

He continued, "To be Hanzo of the Salamander -hand man, you must be quite strong, right?"

The resurrected Amegakure Ninja replied, "I haven't finished yet. I am the right-hand man of Hanzō's right-hand man, also known as Useless Aji..."

Kabuto's face instantly darkened. "Fine, fine, no need for introductions... (ー_ー)!!"

Kabuto has already reached an agreement with the Masked Man, and he knows that the other party has likely completely broken ties with the major Ninja Villages and declared war.

War is always ruthless and cruel, and what Kabuto needs to do now is to rapidly expand his strength before the great war begins.

There's clearly not enough time to improve myself.

So he thought of the Impure World Reincarnation!

By using the Impure World Reincarnation to revive powerful Ninjas who have died, and adding a special spiritual imprint, he can control these powerful Ninjas and form a Reincarnation Army that is not afraid of death!

Because the Impure World Reincarnation requires a certain number of bodies from the Reincarnate, Kabuto embarked on a journey to find the remains of powerful Ninjas.

Unfortunately, most of the former powerhouses died tragically, their bodies either hidden away or shattered into pieces... So Kabuto began his trial-and-error 'card-drawing' journey...

Alternate Dimension.

Sasuke, Karin, and the others retreated, watching the Masked Man had suddenly appeared warily.

"What is your purpose in imprisoning me here?" Sasuke asked, brandishing his sword.

The Masked Man, seemingly unrelated to the question, replied, "During the Five Kage Summit, I declared war on all the major Ninja Villages!"

"My Eye of the Moon Plan will be a success soon! (^ワ^)"

"Pah!" Karin stepped forward, unfazed, and said, "You're dreaming! As long as Shinki remains in this Shinobi World, your ridiculous plans will never succeed! (′д`σ)σ"

The Masked Man was clearly in a good mood, smiling as he replied, "Of course I know the answer to that question, so I've tailored a solution specifically for Shinki. ( ´▽` )"

"I really want to see what kind of look that arrogant brat had in his eyes when he died. ≧∇≦"
