Dealing with Cloud Shinobi Prisoners

After Qingcheng wrote his name, he felt a connection with the Katsuyu! He could summon the Katsuyu by using his Summoning Jutsu.

The Katsuyu, still healing the Konoha Ninja, sensed something amiss and called out to Qingcheng, "Lord Qingcheng! Please guide me in the future."

The Katsuyu of Shikkotsu Forest are actually split bodies of the Slug Sage. The Slug Sage's true form is a giant Katsuyu. The Katsuyu that Tsunade and Sakura summoned using Chakra full chakra were only one-fifth the size of the Slug Sage. His true form has never appeared in the Shinobi World, which is why Shikkotsu Forest is one of the Three Great Sage Regions.

Upon hearing the little Katsuyu's words, Qingcheng nodded immediately and said with a smile, "Katsuyu! I'll be relying on you from now on."

Tsunade watched as Qingcheng prepared to put the Summoning Scroll into his pocket, then said sternly, "Hand it over, you greedy Uchiha Clan! I knew you had ulterior motives."

Upon hearing Tsunade's accusation, Qingcheng said awkwardly, "I'm so sorry! It's just my instinct. Ninjutsu I see any advanced or special Ninjutsu, I can't help but put it in my pocket."

Tsunade glared at Qingcheng again, then said with a look of disgust, "You born evil and greedy Uchiha Clan, you're simply a scoundrel of the Shinobi World, you have no manners at all. I should send you to the Ninja Academy to learn the Three Ninja Prohibitions."

Upon hearing Tsunade's words, Qingcheng immediately rebuked her, "You stupid woman who is born with overreaching knowledge! You Three Ninja Prohibitions techniques well, and you still gambled away the Senju Clan's inheritance. Now you've set your sights on the Uchiha Clan, just waiting for me to inherit my wealth, and then you'll gamble away my Uchiha Clan until they're penniless too!"

Kakashi watched Tsunade and Qingcheng start arguing again, his face showing embarrassment. He said helplessly, "Hokage -sama! Our Sealing Squad team has sealed the Chakra of all the Hidden Cloud Village! What should we do next?"

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, Qingcheng said with a serious expression, "Take away all the fair-skinned Cloud Ninjas, bury them in a pit, and then chain all the dark-skinned Cloud Ninjas by the neck and send them to the Konoha's Black Factory! Treat them as spies, making them work twenty hours a day; that's the kind of work they're best suited for."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi quickly said, "Hokage -sama! This will ruin Konoha's reputation in the Shinobi World. Killing prisoners of war will be condemned by the Shinobi World."

Tsunade stared wide-eyed at Qingcheng with a furious expression, and immediately yelled, "What were you thinking? How could you even come up with this idea? What kind of crazy idea is this? Are you trying to make Konoha look bad?"

There was another person even more terrified: the Fourth Raikage. Although he had been strangled by the Police Force with a rattan whip and hit on the head with Police Force, and had even lost several front teeth, he still felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing Qingcheng's words, and cried out in pain, "Waaaaah!"

Looking at the terrified Fourth Raikage, Qingcheng said excitedly, "I'm not crazy. The purpose of doing this is to eliminate our opponent once and for all. I believe that a weak Hidden Cloud Village is simply a piece of fat meat in the Shinobi World, and everyone wants a piece of it. The vast Land of Lightning definitely needs ninjas to defend it. If we, Konoha, directly occupy the Land of Lightning, everyone will be satisfied once and for all. Isn't that wonderful?"

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Tsunade's face was filled with shock. She then said with a serious expression, "Qingcheng, you can't do this. If our Konoha does things like this, we will become the scum of the Shinobi World. No one will want to associate with our Konoha. We might even be besieged by other ninja villages, just like the Hidden Sky Village back then."

Kakashi, seeing Qingcheng blinking, already understood the Hokage's meaning: this was an attempt to intimidate the Raikage, not an actual massacre of prisoners of war.

Kakashi nodded, then said seriously, "Hokage -sama! If you really want to do this, I can take full responsibility. I will kill all those Cloud Ninja with my own strength, and no one will blame Konoha."

Tsunade was shocked upon hearing Kakashi's words, staring at Kakashi in disbelief. She exclaimed in astonishment, "Kakashi, have you gone mad? Have you been infected by the Evil Uchiha? It would be too cruel not to do this!"

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, Kumo-ma immediately straightened his middle-parted hair and said with a serious expression, "Kakashi-sensei, you are the Assistant Hokage of our village. Leave this to me. Please call me Shimura Danzō. This was Danzo's doing."

Immediately, more and more Konoha Ninja shouted, "I did it too! I did it too! I'm willing to take the blame! We'll each kill two, and all these Hidden Cloud Village war criminals will be wiped out!"

There are still over 8,000 Konoha Ninja. This battle only resulted in the loss of over 700, leaving over 3,000, including members of the Police Forces! Also, there's Hayakumo Sōma and others; they've already gone to the Land of Invasion, as well as Hidden Cloud Village."

On the other hand, the Hidden Cloud Village has already lost over 8,000 men, with over 12,000 captured. More than 8,000 Cloud Shinobi have escaped in the chaos. The Hidden Cloud Village is now practically defenseless; any invasion would be easily thwarted by the Konoha Ninja.

The Fourth Raikage was terrified by the insane scene before him. So many Konoha Ninja were preparing to massacre the Hidden Cloud Village criminals; he screamed in terror.
