Iwagakure.
Bang!
The door to the conference room was violently pushed open, and a burly man with red hair and a ponytail broke into the conference room.
"Ōnoki! Why are the hunters locked up!" Rōshi, who had a beard on his face, questioned Ōnoki in front of many Iwagakure senior officials.
Being pointed at the nose by Rōshi, Ōnoki's face was also very ugly, and he punched the table. "Rōshi! Pay attention to your identity!
This is not the place for you to act wild!"
"I'm acting wild?!" Rōshi laughed angrily and jumped directly onto the conference table, folding his hands on his chest and looking down at Ōnoki.
Iwagakure and other high-level ninjas who participated in the meeting saw this and left the meeting room in a wise manner.
After everyone left, Ōnoki's son Kitsuchi quickly went up and closed the door, smoothing things over and said, "Senior Rōshi, the hunting situation is a bit special."
"What's so special?!" Rōshi didn't buy it at all, and still roared menacingly, "Ki will do his best for the village.
He was even captured by the enemy and suffered inhuman torture. Now that he is finally recovered, you still want to lock him up and interrogate him?
"This is a necessary procedure." Kitsuchi sighed and wanted to pull Rōshi off the table.
But Rōshi also had a stubborn temper and sat cross-legged on the table. "If you don't give me an explanation today! I won't leave!"
Ōnoki was also so angry that his beard stood up, and he slammed the table. "If you have the ability, just sit here for the rest of your life!"
Kitsuchi was sandwiched between the two of them, trying to reconcile these two people with conflicting tempers.
After all, one of them is his father, and the other is Jinchuriki of the village. The two originally have different personalities and political opinions. If the hunting incident aggravates the conflict, it will only bring adverse effects to the village.
So Kitsuchi quickly explained, "Rōshi, Shou led the team to Land of Bears and lost contact for several months. Now he suddenly comes back. It is necessary to undergo investigation."
"The fart process!" Rōshi glared at Kitsuchi: "Kari escaped after being chased by the enemy. The ninjas on border patrol also encountered that group of people and killed one of the Jonin and several Chunin, Genin! They even injured several people!"
"Do you suspect that Kari is a spy returned by the enemy? He specifically uses the lives of a jounin and several Chunin and Genin as bait to act?"
Explosion Release It has been a month since Ninja Hunter escaped back to Iwagakure.
Of the team sent out by Iwagakure to investigate the drastic changes in Land of Bears and Hoshigakure, only Kari escaped and the other two were still missing. Ohno had to have some doubts about Kari and asked people to investigate Kari.
Since returning, Kari has been grounded in the name of recovering from his injuries, which makes Rōshi unable to bear it.
After many investigations, Rōshi obtained a lot of information from the ninjas who participated in the battle to welcome the hunter.
For example, among the Hoshigakure ninjas who were pursuing them, one of them was very powerful, at least at the jounin level, and caused some injuries to the border patrol ninjas who joined the fight at that time. The last few Hoshigakure pursuers also died in the battle, and their bodies were brought back.
Rōshi originally disagreed with Ōnoki in many aspects. Kari was also his good friend. Seeing his friend being treated like this, Rōshi, who had a bad temper, certainly couldn't sit idly by and ignore it.
That's why today's incident happened. Rōshi broke into the conference room directly and questioned Ōnoki, who was the first Third Tsuchikage.
Completely disregarding Ōnoki's identity as Tsuchikage.
Ōnoki, who was sitting in the main seat, was also very dissatisfied with Rōshi, Jinchuriki, who often opposed him.
"As I said, it's a normal procedure! Did I put him in jail?" Ōnoki, who was originally short in stature, stepped on the chair.
He put his hands on the table and glared at Rōshi.
"Then you still haven't released me! It's been a month!" Rōshi's eyes widened, and he met Ōnoki's eyes.
He yelled for Ohno to let him go.
If it were any other time, Ōnoki would have felt that time was almost up. After all, the long investigation had yielded no results. The pursuing Hoshigakure ninja had indeed lost the fighting power of a jounin and several Chunin and Genin. It was unlikely that the enemy would use so much fighting power to bribe a ninja from another country.
And Kari also brought back some information about Hoshigakure.
According to Kari's explanation, he was defeated by a mysterious woman. The opponent was very strong and their entire team was wiped out.
Imprisoned in prison Hoshigakure.
While in prison, Kari was subjected to inhuman torture and interrogation, but he kept his mouth close and did not reveal any information about Iwagakure.
Instead, based on the chats of the Hoshigakure ninja who was guarding him, it was roughly deduced that Hoshigakure had encountered a coup, and a group of powerful mysterious ninjas controlled Hoshigakure's information.
He even met the Sunagakure ninja Pakura who was also imprisoned.
"It's not the time yet." Ōnoki, who originally wanted to let go, became as hard as a stone because of the stimulation of Rōshi and refused to let go.
"You old guy!" Rōshi gasped.
With Lava Release in his right hand, he suddenly blasted towards Ōnoki.
Ōnoki also immediately used the Earth Release·Rock Fist technique to turn his right hand into a solid rock, directly facing Rōshi's Lava Release.
Boom!
The rock fist collided with Lava Release, erupting into a billowing heat wave. Even Rōshi, who was Jinchuriki, was knocked back a few steps.
However, Ōnoki also felt uncomfortable. Most of the clothes on his right hand were burned by Lava Release, and the rocks on his arm were also shaken off.
"In a few days, when the one-month period is over, the hunting ban will naturally be lifted." Ōnoki said coldly.
"Hmph!" Rōshi snorted heavily.
He knew that he was no match for Ōnoki, otherwise he would have fought with this old guy who had a different personality.
But Rōshi, who has a stubborn temper, cannot bow his head to Ohno.
So after getting the promise, Rōshi put away Lava Release, pushed the door open, and left the conference room.
"I'm so angry!" Ōnoki looked at Rōshi's leaving figure, panting.
"I said daddy, don't get angry with Rōshi, be careful with your body." Kitsuchi then stepped forward and supported Ōnoki.
As soon as he mentioned this, Ōnoki felt like his waist was about to break. He punched his lower back and said with hatred towards Kitsuchi: "Hey, you said that if you were stronger and could suppress Rōshi and Han, I would have passed on Tsuchikage's position to you! It doesn't matter how busy Tenten is!"
Kitsuchi, who was being taught a lesson by his own father, could only laugh along with him.
Ōnoki sighed deeply towards his honest and honest son.
Kitsuchi looks too much like him when he was young, but his strength is a bit -
This is not to say that he is weak. Kitsuchi, who is less than thirty years old, has long been a jounin. During the Third Shinobi World War period, he could even serve as the commander of one front.
But his strength is not enough to suppress Four-Tails Jinchuriki Rōshi and Five-Tails Jinchuriki Han.
Therefore, Ōnoki is very worried that if he passes the position of Tsuchikage to Kitsuchi, he will not be able to suppress these two Jinchuriki. And once he is no longer alive, if these two Jinchuriki start to cause trouble, Iwagakure really no one can suppress them.
This is also the biggest dilemma of Iwagakure now, lack of high-end combat power.
The ninja education system adopted by Iwagakure draws on the Ninja Academy system of Konoha, but has its own unique features.
Iwagakure has many ninjas. At Third Shinobi World War, he could pull out ten thousand ninjas to besiege Third Raikage A. They fought for three days and three nights, and Third Raikage A's chakra was exhausted and he died.
But similarly, Iwagakure has also lost many outstanding ninjas, so much so that it has not yet recovered.
Ōnoki was supported by Kitsuchi and sat down slowly. He hit his sore lower back with one hand and looked at his confused son through the wrinkles with his deep eyes. He said, "The daimyo doesn't want to have a more intense conflict with Land of Bears, or Hoshigakure, so as not to fall into a war."
"Therefore, the name of Land of Birds will come forward and issue a state note to Land of Bears, hoping that Land of Bears will explain the situation and recognize the new name of Land of Bears as appropriate."
"What?" Although Kitsuchi didn't understand politics, when he heard that Daimyo of the Land of Earth was about to compromise, his rough face was stunned for a moment.
Isn't it said that a great name should not be insulted?
Not to mention that the daimyo family was massacred and the Land of Bears nobles were bloodbathed from top to bottom. Many Land of Earth nobles were married to Land of Bears nobles. How can this be tolerated?
When Kitsuchi was stunned, Ōnoki punched Kitsuchi on the head.
When I hit Kitsuchi, I screamed.
"So when will your elm-brained brain be able to wake up?" Ōnoki is completely disappointed with his stupid son.
However, the little granddaughter Kurotsuchi has shown extraordinary talent and wisdom since she was a child, which gave Ōnoki hope.
"Ah? Dad, what's wrong?" Kitsuchi scratched the place where his father had just punched him, grinning in pain.
Ōnoki glanced at him angrily, and then slowly explained, "Since the last siege of Third Raikage A, we Iwagakure have also lost more than two thousand ninjas, and the war-weary mood in the village is not low. If we start a war rashly, it will only be cheaper for Land of Wind."
"So the meaning of the daimyo is to let the small country come forward and recognize Land of Bears's new daimyo, take this opportunity to find out the mastermind behind the drastic changes in Land of Bears, and then provoke Regarding the relationship between Land of Bears and Land of Wind, let Sunagakure's ninjas test Hoshigakure first. When they are almost done fighting, we will find an opportunity to send troops to intervene."
Although Ōnoki had explained it in such detail, Kitsuchi still didn't understand, and his eyes revealed clear stupidity.
The game at the national level is simply a blind eye for many ninjas who specialize in fighting.
Ōnoki looked at his son's blank eyes, and finally sighed and turned to the window, "Continue to increase border patrols, Land of Bears,
Maybe the name needs to be changed."
At the same time.
Land of Demons Shrine's gauze tent is windless and automatic.
Miroku The miko suddenly woke up from the couch, her white singlet soaked in cold sweat clinging to her back.
Her trembling fingertips pressed against her violently heaving chest, the nightmare just now still lingering in her mind.
The boundless darkness swallowed up the entire Shinobi World. In a beam of light that pierced the darkness, a vague figure vaguely emerged--
"This prophecy" Miroku became panicked.
