The Final Battle Begins

Outside Iwagakure.

Inside a large tent of the Allied Shinobi Forces, the commanders-in-chief of the various village forces gathered.

Once the Hidden Iwagakure is completely defeated, the Land of Earth will be entirely in the hands of the Shinobi Alliance.

Although there are still large tracts of land behind Iwagakure, without any opposing forces...

For the Allied Shinobi Forces, those lands were no longer currency in the hands of the Land of Earth, but rather savings deposited in a bank by the Allied Forces, which they could simply withdraw.

The topic of discussion inside the main tent was how to take down Iwagakure.

The prevailing idea was to first try to persuade Iwagakure to surrender, thereby dividing Iwagakure's forces as much as possible while minimizing the Allied Shinobi Forces' losses.

Meetings on the battlefield proceed quickly, and this resolution was passed in no time.

As for whether the Allied Shinobi Forces considered the possibility of failure, to be honest, they didn't!

Although the previous attacks by Iwagakure had caused some trouble for the allied forces.

But that wasn't even a serious injury; at most, it was just a scrape.

To be honest, even Amegakure) was just a bystander in this operation.

The main force and core will only be the four major ninja villages. As long as the four major ninja villages do not suffer heavy casualties, the entire Allied Shinobi Forces can remain as solid as a rock.

The Allied Forces were well aware that Rōshi had become the new Tsuchikage, and that their previous spies had also been eliminated.

They either went into hiding out of fear of being exposed, but the Allied Forces could roughly estimate how much fighting power Iwagakure actually had.

The strength of Iwagakure is on a completely different level from that of the Allied Shinobi Forces.

Without any super-limit Iwagakure, the Allied Shinobi Forces could easily overwhelm Iwagakure simply by sheer numbers.

As for the remaining two Jinchūriki of Iwagakure, weren't they exceptionally powerful figures for most of the Allied Shinobi Forces?

The Allied Shinobi Forces aren't without Jinchūriki; this time they have three.

The Six-Tails Jinchuriki Utakata, and the Two-Tails Jinchūriki Yugito Nii.

These two alone are enough to overwhelm the Jinchūriki of Iwagakure. As for the last one, it is naturally Fu, one of the seven Jinchūriki of Takigakure.

Well, she's just a minor character, so let's not mention her. The Allied Shinobi Forces aren't counting on her fighting ability anyway.

After some preparation, the persuasion tactics began.

Countless Senbon carrying paper shot into Iwagakure.

At the same time, a set of prepared loudspeaker equipment was also pointed at Iwagakure.

"Listen up, Iwagakure ninja Iwagakure made the mistake first by trying to provoke conflict in the Shinobi World. The Allied Shinobi Forces are not here for slaughter or invasion, but only for peace."

"We came to save Iwagakure, but your Iwagakure has been severely infiltrated, and your companions may have already been replaced by the White Monster!"

"As long as you are willing to surrender and seal your Chakra, the Allied Shinobi Forces will guarantee the safety of you and your families after completing the search!"

"The following is the Self-Sealing Technique, Hai-Wei-Yin..."

"Repeat it, Hai-Wei-Yin..."

Iwagakure has no sealing barrier, and even Konoha only has a sensory barrier that is always open; its protective barrier is only activated after an attack has been confirmed.

Senbon, along with countless pleas for surrender, flew into Iwagakure, and the loudspeakers also broadcast the words of surrender Iwagakure.

As everything proceeded as usual, a pitch-black sphere, no bigger than a human head, hurtled towards the ninja who was still loudly babbling and trying to persuade them to surrender.

The terrifying Chakra fluctuations emanating from it foreshadowed its true nature: a miniature Tailed Beast Ball!

"Keep going, don't stop!"

Shikaku was terrified and the ninja who had been trying to persuade him to surrender continued to do his job. Facing the incoming Tailed Beast Ball, he showed no panic and bowed slightly to the ninja beside him.

"I need your help, Lord Utakata!"

Utakata nodded slightly, easily and quickly condensing a small Tailed Beast Ball, which struck the incoming Tailed Beast Ball before it could react.

They set off a large firecracker between the Allied Forces' front lines and Iwagakure.

After the massive explosion caused by the collision of the Tailed Beast Ball, the outer walls of Iwagakure were filled with ninjas, and large white birds hovered in the sky.

Standing atop the gate of Iwagakure is the Fourth Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, and also the last Tsuchikage, Rōshi.

At this moment, Rōshi was wearing an ill-fitting Tsuchikage Robe, which he had turned into Tsuchikage Top.

In the critical moment when Rōshi took office, he certainly didn't have time to ask a tailor to make a custom-made robe, and what he wore was the Ōnoki Tsuchikage that Ōnoki had left in Iwagakure.

It looked somewhat comical, but there was no hint of mockery in it.

Rōshi roared with all his might, momentarily drowning out the voices of the ninjas trying to persuade him to surrender.

"Iwagakure will never surrender!"

"Iwagakure Ninja, fight to the death!!!"

As Rōshi's shout ended, he was the first to leap off the wall and charge towards the Allied Shinobi Forces.
