Heroine Pakura

After learning that the Third Kazekage had gone missing, the various nations finally understood. No wonder Sunagakure had taken the lead—it had been forced into it.

As for Konoha's subsequent statement claiming it had nothing to do with the Third Kazekage's disappearance, no one paid it any attention. Now that war had broken out, the cause no longer mattered. What everyone cared about was the war itself.

Especially after hearing that one hundred thousand Sand Ninja had surged deep into the West Forest region like a force of nature, the various nations began to stir. However, considering Konoha's strength and Skywalker's achievements in the previous battle, everyone ultimately held back and decided to observe for a while longer.

In any case, this war was far from over. A national war involving hundreds of thousands of troops would take at least several months, wouldn't it? It would not be strange even if it lasted for years. Let the Land of Wind, the one taking the lead, wear down some of Konoha's strength first. It would not be too late for them to act afterward. As for who won and who lost, it meant little to them. As long as Konoha's strength was depleted, that was enough.

Unfortunately, events unfolded far beyond the various nations' expectations, and the war between the two countries soon took a sudden turn.

At eight that night, the upper ranks of Sunagakure, having just finished dinner, gathered in the command tent to discuss the coming battle.

After a full day of marching and fighting, none of them appeared fatigued. Instead, their faces were filled with excitement. Rasa was extremely satisfied with their reactions. In an energized tone, he said, "Everyone, this surprise attack has gone very smoothly. After a day of fighting, we have achieved abundant results.
