"Yes, I understand, Lord Tsuchikage!"
All the power in the village still belongs to Kage, and Kitsuchi is only a little worried. The current situation is indeed very suitable for the timing of his own Ninja Village's action. Even if Fourth Shinobi World War is really set off again, it will still be H for the current Iwagakure. OLD's living, Third Shinobi World War's losses have been replenished a lot over the years. The joining of the Uchiha Clan has made Iwagakure a step forward. The fact that Tsuchikage's father even transferred Han to here is a good indication of the problem.
At this moment, Kitsuchi did not hesitate at all. After suddenly bowing his head in response, he left directly to make corresponding preparations. The operation of a large force of three thousand personnel requires consideration of all aspects, especially the deployment of personnel and the allocation of logistics materials. Preparations must be completed in the shortest possible time.
Fortunately, Ōnoki had already made some preparations in advance when Shōji and his party left the village for Konohagakure. This is also a routine operation for big countries.
Of course, in addition to this, Ōnoki also immediately sent an "alliance" message to Kumogakure through official channels as Third Tsuchikage!
Just as his son said, even if they Iwagakure are now one-on-one and not afraid of any Ninja Village, they can barely do it if they really want to fight two, but the risk will be too high, the probability of winning will decrease, and the possibility of collapse will increase. They can be more cautious, and naturally they still have to choose the most stable approach!
Moreover, Ōnoki also firmly believes that Fourth Raikage will not miss such a good opportunity. It is time to turn over the era of Konoha over Four Great Shinobi Villages's head!
"Konoha, this time I will completely step on your heads. The shame in Third Shinobi World War will be completely washed away this time. I will completely take back the regrets from that time!"
Ōnoki Various imprints from Third Shinobi World War a few years ago appeared in the depths of his mind, and at this moment, a cold look appeared in his pupils and he whispered.
Iwagakure act immediately.
This is another signal announcing the arrival of war.
It was also when Iwagakure's war machine was fully operational, Kumogakure was in the hinterland of the northeast of Land of Lightning, which was far east of Land of Earth.
Fourth Raikage A also received the information sent back by the members of the mission sent to Konohagakure only half a day later than Ōnoki, although it would take a short period of time for the official alliance information arranged by Ōnoki to be sent to Kumogakure.
However, since Shōji had already contacted and negotiated with Mayoi, the leader of the Kumogakure mission, the night before, the information that was completely passed back allowed Fourth Raikage to understand the full story of this incident.
While feeling pity for the failure of the last step of his plan and feeling slightly angry that his capable subordinate died in battle, Fourth Raikage A's pupils also shone with light, and his face showed a look of joy!
film!
The interests of the village must be considered at the highest level.
There is no doubt about it.
This time, all their Kumogakure plans were based on considering the current or future interests of their Ninja Village.
Although the second plan fell short in the last step, the death of deputy leader Retto still provided them with an excellent reason for Kumogakure. Shimura Danzō's attack on the Iwagakure mission headed by Uchiha Shōji was a good opportunity for them Kumogakure.
"Very good! Very good!"
Fourth Raikage, who was a little excited and punched his desk hard, also immediately summoned his capable subordinates. When Dodai and others arrived, they also got a brief understanding of the general process of the situation on the way.
Then he obtained more detailed information from his own Lord Raikage and after scanning it again, he was as calm as Dodai, showing a hint of joy.
"Dodai, you won't stop me this time, right!?"
Fourth Raikage A looked at Dodai in front of him with piercing eyes, and said with a burning tone.
"Yes, Lord Raikage, this is indeed an excellent opportunity for us Kumogakure. Originally, if the previous plan failed, it is likely to have negative effects, but with the addition of Iwagakure, it can Let us occupy a very favorable situation. Konoha's attitude can explain a lot of problems. We can immediately mobilize more troops to Land of Hot Springs and be ready to go south at any time."
"However, I personally suggest that if possible, let Iwagakure take the lead as much as possible. Our side can take advantage of the situation to coerce Konoha. Iwagakure's side must also be fighting The same intention, but at this point, we already have the first mover advantage. Konoha's attitude is the most important point. As long as we grasp this, we can obtain many benefits from Konoha. We agreed to stay before The area under Land of Hot Springs Mount Fengzui, the distribution of task shares, trade routes, the deployment of border forces, compensation of various materials, and the most important point, Byakugan Kekkei Genkai, we can also pass By putting pressure on Konoha and asking Konoha to hand over the culprit - Hyuga Hiashi, we Kumogakure agreed to continue the previous peace negotiations!"
This was an extremely clear idea almost from the beginning.
Dodai looked up at his own Lord Raikage and spoke very quickly.
The various conditions put forward in these words can be summed up in one sentence. If you want it directly to death, of course you can't really force Konoha to the point of fighting them. There must be a limit here. This is their Kumogakure needs to take the initiative to investigate and then step on it steadily, but as long as the general trend does not change, Dodai has a high degree of confidence and certainty, and can easily obtain these benefits from Konoha!
And then they can leisurely watch the battle between Konoha and Iwagakure Ninja. When necessary, they Kumogakure can also choose who will stab them. Of course, there is a high probability that it will still be... To backstab Konoha, unless Iwagakure can achieve a crushing victory over Konoha in the war between the two countries, then Kumogakure will definitely help Konoha.
It's just that in Dodai's view, such a possibility is undoubtedly a fantasy. No matter how weak Konoha is in terms of foundation, Five Great Shinobi Villages is still the first, and Land of Fire is rich. The level is many times higher than that of the other four countries. As long as there is not much change, Kumogakure's first goal will always be Konoha, and he will still be thinking about Land of Fire's fertile land.
The only difference is that you need to control the scale well. It is the most appropriate choice to give priority to Konoha and Iwagakure Ninja to have a fierce battle, and then they will pick up the leaks later.
After hearing Dodai's words, Fourth Raikage A also showed a look of deep thought on his face. According to the character of Raikage in the past, it is Raikage's conventional thinking to just push it all the way, use violence to get what he wants, and achieve his goals.
But this does not mean that they are really single-minded. In the final analysis, this is a symbol of confidence in their own strength, because all generations of Raikage are very confident and feel that they can solve all problems by relying on their own strength. Naturally, they are too lazy to complicate the problem. It is their philosophy to use the purest violent aesthetics to end everything.
But there is another premise here that they themselves feel that this is the best way to solve the problem. If there are other better solutions, Raikage will still consider it. Just like the opinion put forward by Dodai at this moment, although Fourth Raikage considers it comprehensively, it is not so suitable for their own personalities, but it is indeed the optimal solution for them Kumogakure at this moment.
The most direct point is that once this plan can be successfully implemented, not to mention the huge benefits that can be obtained, it can also greatly reduce the losses of the Ninja Village. This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone.
Fourth Raikage After thinking about it for a short while, he nodded slowly.
"But how do we know that the person who killed Retto must be the clan leader of the Hyuga Clan? Generally speaking, there is a high probability that it will be other patrolling and guarding personnel in the Hyuga Clan, right? If Hyuga Clan randomly handed over one person, and he was a member of the separated family, wouldn't we..."
Darui, who was still looking very immature at the moment, asked with a hint of confusion, but he hadn't finished speaking yet.
"Darui, it is not important whether it is Retto who was killed by Hyuga Hiashi. What is important is that we Kumogakure have to advocate this way. The rest of the things are not for us to consider, but for the Konoha side to consider. Either agree or go to war!"
Fourth Raikage A looked at Darui with a cold look and said, as the most talented person in the next generation of his Ninja Village, Fourth Raikage A still values Darui very much and always takes him with him. As long as there are major events in the village, he will try his best to involve him. This can be seen from this.
Although Darui is still very young at the moment and is far from as mature and powerful as Original Work in the later period, the talents he has shown during this period are enough for Fourth Raikage A to include him in the list of key inspections.
For a young person who may become the next core leader of the village.
Fourth Raikage A It is necessary to allow these little guys to develop in all aspects and pass on some very important things to them.
For example, they belong to the domineering nature that Kumogakure should have!
When Darui heard his own Raikage's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then slowly nodded with a hint of understanding.
"Yes, Konoha only has two choices, and there are no other qualifications!"
Dodai also nodded slightly and said.
"Very good, then let's implement the plan you mentioned. Dodai, Konoha will focus on the pressure, and then let's contact that old guy Iwagakure, and send someone to immediately. Qianyan Hot Spring, tell Yugito to come back! If you have to do it, let's follow through! Let Konoha and Iwagakure take a look at our Kumogakure determination!"
Fourth Raikage A narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice with a hint of coldness.
"Eh? Yes, Lord Raikage, I understand!"
Dodai was slightly startled at first, then showed a hint of understanding, and then nodded heavily and answered Responded.
Even if it's just a look, it's still a full set.
Not to mention that they Kumogakure are not just acting at all.
In the final analysis, suppress Konoha, weaken Iwagakure, and then grab the benefits they Kumogakure want. Fourth Raikage said they want all of these things!
Step by step, reach the top of the Jōnin world!
This is the goal pursued tirelessly by all major countries.
Now that Kirigakure has disappeared and Sunagakure has completely declined, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Konoha are each other's biggest enemies. It is the common goal of Fourth Raikage A and Third Tsuchikage Onoki to completely suppress the other two companies and then let their own family rise!
At this point, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was already completely heartless, could not compare with these two!
It's another busy day, so I'm going to upload this much first, and when I come back in the evening, I'll see how many codes I can get and then I'll upload as many as I can!
