The three villages did not reach an agreement, and Sunagakure, represented by Baki, was just as seemingly incompatible as Konohagakure. This is why Ōnoki was not very worried before that even if his village really accepted Uchiha Clan, he would not necessarily suffer. The siege is actually due to the comparison of strength between Iwagakure and Konohagakure in the past few decades. The interests of Land of Fire where Konoha is located are not comparable to those of Iwagakure and Land of Earth.
There is still hatred between the major countries. Do they want to truly unite? Don't be kidding, in Original Work it was also because Tailed Beast was lost one after another, and Obito was still alive under the name of "Madara". This made Five Great Shinobi Villages put aside their hatred and conflicts of interest for the time being, and unite together. Later, it seemed that they were persuaded by Naruto to unite with each other, but in fact? We are not still following the same old path of First Hokage.
Mutual understanding and letting go of hatred should not be ridiculous.
There are only interests between countries!
Human beings have never suffered from scarcity, only from inequality. As long as Konoha still occupies the largest share of interests, Land of Fire will still be the richest country, Original Work Once the Naruto and Sasuke generations pass away, the war between Five Great Nations will break out again. This is a destined outcome and no one can change it!
It can be said that Ōnoki has the most thorough view of this aspect. Therefore, although he has some concerns and arrangements, he is really not too worried that Iwagakure will be besieged. In these ninja villages, each of which has hatred and concerns, and when there are too few limited benefits that can be obtained from Land of Earth, normal people will make more rational choices!
Konoha and Land of Fire are the real big fat sheep!
At least, in Kumogakure, this can be reflected intuitively.
Otherwise, why would Fourth Raikage and Kumogakure in Original Work keep causing trouble for Konoha? Instead of going to trouble Iwagakure? You must know that Ōnoki commanded 10,000 Iwagakure Ninja to kill the enemy of Raikage's father. In the final analysis, interests are what move people's hearts. The overall strategy of the village must be based on the collective interests of the village!
By launching a war against Konoha, you can easily get what Kumogakure wants. However, against Land of Earth, it is only one step stronger than Land of Wind, but it is also not a very wealthy country. The benefits and risks are not proportional to the war.
They even kidnapped Hinata on the pretext of peace negotiations and exposed their intentions. After the plan failed, they continued to threaten Konoha with war. This is the best proof that Kumogakure covets Konoha and Land of Fire's rich resources!
Therefore, as long as there is no big accident, it will be difficult for the two great ninja villages to come together. The reason why Fourth Raikage A and Dodai sent missions to Konoha is to test Let's take a look at Konoha's tone and see what these opponents will do next. It can't be said that there is nothing to gain, at least we can see the approach of Sunagakure and Konohagakure.
This is of vital significance for Kumogakure's next strategic choice.
Kumogakure will definitely leave, and Sunagakure will most likely stay. This is something that Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mitokado Homura and other senior executives of Konohagakure can expect. This also provides them with some good information. They can add more means and confidence in their future plans for Iwagakure and Uchiha Clan.
It's just that at this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mitokado Homura and others still didn't realize that Kumogakure certainly coveted Uchiha Clan's Sharingan Kekkei Genkai and Iwagakure are afraid of getting stronger, but the first target is still on Konoha and Land of Fire.
One bite can directly produce a mouth full of oil, and it is easy to chip teeth, but it is not necessarily possible to find the line between oil and water, as well as the number one in the present tense and the number one in the future tense. What to choose, for Kumogakure, this is not difficult, not If you think this is a manifestation of short-sightedness on the part of Fourth Raikage A, Dodai and others, it should be said that from the perspective of the country and the Ninja Village, the most correct choice is to gain the maximum benefit at the minimum cost!
Among Five Great Shinobi Villages, Kumogakure is the most determined Ninja Village to implement this strategy.
Maybe he will do something while Uchiha Clan is away and Konoha's strength is declining. This is behavior that is very consistent with Kumogakure's style!
It's just that their mission dispatch this time gave Sarutobi Hiruzen a wrong understanding. At this time, only Gods really knows what kind of foreshadowing and development this completely opposite understanding will lay for the future!
The turbulent Shinobi World, after experiencing a huge wave, seems to have returned to calm Shinobi World. This is just a temporary calm before the next craze comes, Kumogakure, Sunagakure, Konoha, Iwagakure presents a strange and calm situation in the four corners. If Three Great Shinobi Villages does not take the initiative to make trouble, Iwagakure and Uchiha Clan will not take the initiative to do anything. The next two or three years will be the most important running-in period for Iwagakure and Uchiha Clan.
As long as this stage can be successfully passed, what will come next will be Iwagakure's true strength explosion and their 'Will of Stone' crazy expansion period!
Four Great Shinobi Villages each did not make much movement, and seemed to have entered a period of dormancy. However, Kirigakure, which was far above the eastern seaboard, had entered into a civil strife that was far more bloody than in ordinary Bloody Mist Policy!
Although Bloody Mist Policy has long existed in the previous Kirigakure, the internal environment is far more terrifying than other Four Great Shinobi Villages.
But it is still more or less in the category of barely normal. Everything is under the control of Kirigakure's senior management, so there will not be any imbalance. A relatively delicate balance can be maintained between the major Ninja Clan. However, when Obito sneaks in and uses his own Mangekyō Sharingan, and the special method Madara left behind to control Fourth Mizukage-Karatachi Yagura, Kirigakure slipped into the unpredictable abyss when others, including the master Genji, did not expect it!
When Obito made all preparations and started to do it.
It started with the destruction of two small families.
Kirigakure has officially entered into bloody internal fighting!
Yuki Clan, Kaguya Clan, Hozuki Clan and other Kirigakure wealthy Ninja Clan all became vigilant.
Although, under the implementation of Bloody Mist Policy, the atmosphere of Kirigakure was not very good to begin with. After Mizukage came to power, there was more or less behavior of excluding dissenters, but the behavior of Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura during this period was full of some kind of weird behavior.
This is not just the opinion of those who are not Fourth Mizukage's closest confidants, including Anbu who is directly under Mizukage, Jōnin Squad, Intelligence Division, etc. Karatachi Yagura's most trusted confidants all feel that his master Mizukage has been a little weird during this period of time!
