The wall of the venue was penetrated by a wave of Great Strength. Raikage was the fastest and chose to force a breakthrough after receiving the signal.
But in the next second, countless plant vines entangled themselves, mixed with pink red mist.
He forcibly broke through dozens of root blockades. But then he felt dizzy. There was also a problem with the flow of chakra in his body.
Not good.
He was shocked. As Raikage, his Nintaijutsu was unparalleled in the world, and he could have easily broken through it. But the poisonous mist of Advent of a World of Flowering Trees made him suffer a heavy loss.
Of course, it also has something to do with the fact that his left hand was broken by Aoba before. As a Taijutsu ninja, he lost an arm, so his strength is naturally not as good as before.
"It was Mizukage who designed us." This is the first thing Raikage thought of.
But when he looked back, he was shocked. Because Mizukage Cangya was being penetrated by a vine and hung in the air.
At this time, the Tailed Beast Chakra in the body is raging crazily. Jinchūriki is trying to save itself, but Revolving Heaven is already a little helpless.
"..."
It's not Mizukage, that's Ōnoki.
Look at Ōnoki, which is falling from the sky. He immediately used Light-Weight Rock Technique and wanted to fly out. But he sucked pollen on the way. He couldn't take a breath and fell directly.
Raikage hesitated slightly and rushed over to catch Ōnoki.
In any case, the two of them are considered natural allies at this time. Raikage was very conceited in his early years. But after being taught a lesson by Aoba many times, he actually became a little better.
Moreover, he is facing Wood Release, and he also needs the experience of Ōnoki.
The pollen is still taking effect. The Wood Release used by Black Zetsu is not as powerful as Madara. So much so that Raikage, who has the strongest body, can still persist.
Throwing Ōnoki on his back. Raikage shouted.
"Ōnoki, if you don't cheer up, the two of us will die here."
Raikage looked around, and there were already corpses everywhere around him. Whether it was Kirigakure, ANBU, or their two guards, they were unable to fight back against the attack just now.
The ultra-large range Wood Release, combined with highly toxic pollen, can directly clear the area.
Ōnoki opened his eyes with difficulty and clasped his hands together.
"Dust Release, Atomic Dismantling Jutsu."
The pure white light beam swept across the surroundings, cutting off countless Wood Release.
Raikage's body suddenly accelerated.
Ōnoki cast Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique on two people at the same time. As Raikage ran and jumped wildly, it took off directly into the sky and disappeared into the sky.
Kirigakure's turmoil spread to Aoba two hours later.
The first time he saw the report scroll, Aoba understood Black Zetsu's plan. There is no doubt that the blame for the three shadows' siege will be placed on Konoha's head.
Originally, the biggest suspect was undoubtedly Mizukage Cangya. But now, Cangya was directly killed. Kirigakure suffered the most serious losses. The pot was thrown away and undoubtedly fell on the head of Konoha.
After all, the three of them met to deal with Konoha. It was reasonable for Konoha to trick them.
Ōnoki thought more, he felt there was a problem here. But he didn't know where the problem was.
In any case, after suffering such an ambush, both Iwagakure and Kumogakure must respond. This is the bottom line of maintaining one of the five major powers.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether this attack was Konoha. What is important is that this attack gave the three major powers Land of Lightning, Land of Water, and Land of Earth perfect reasons and excuses.
At this time, war has become a necessity. This guy Black Zetsu has been lurking in the human world for thousands of years. He has an extremely clear understanding of human nature.
The next day, Kumogakure directly declared war on Konoha. A day later, Iwagakure also officially declared war on Konoha. Then Kirigakure followed suit and declared war on Konoha. This was the beginning of Fourth Shinobi World War.
Hokage's Office, Aoba put down the mission scroll in their hands and said to everyone.
"Okay, now Kirigakure Iwagakure and Kumogakure have declared war on us. We are already in a state of war. The three fronts are at war, and we need to deal with it carefully, so we held a combat meeting."
Aoba finished speaking and sat back down. Tsunade took over the topic.
"Land of Fire has entered a state of preparation for war. However, the daimyo's attitude is a bit perfunctory. Therefore, we Konoha need to make more preparations. Konoha has ample reserves of food, grass and ordnance.
In this meeting, we mainly discussed the basic tactics of the three-front war and selected the commander of the war."
Neither Tsunade nor Aoba felt much about Mimura's declaration of war. To them, the real threat was Black Zetsu hiding in the dark.
But Black Zetsu is too stubborn. Except for one appearance at Kirigakure's venue, he has never appeared again.
"According to our intelligence, Raikage and Ōnoki were seriously injured. Therefore, in the early stages of the war, we do not have to face them. But even so, we still need to withstand huge pressure in the third-line battle."
"It's not the third line. Kirigakure is basically useless now. The most elite group is on our side. When the time comes, just let them deal with it on their own. Our most important enemies are Kumogakure and Iwagakure."
The meeting lasted a whole day, but they could only discuss an outline.
War is nothing else. No matter how meticulous the preparations are, unexpected situations will occur in actual combat. Therefore, everything still has to be said on the battlefield.
But Aoba knew in his heart that as long as he left Konoha, Black Zetsu would definitely come to attack.
In the previous fight, my Kotoamatsukami must have scared the opponent. Therefore, I always hid and refused to come out.
Aoba squats while Konoha doesn't show up, which is a bit like adapting to the ever-changing situation. If he doesn't show up, Black Zetsu won't be sure of his whereabouts, and naturally he won't dare to do anything casually.
In other words, once his whereabouts are determined, Black Zetsu will definitely appear.
After the meeting, Aoba found Minato.
At this time, Minato is personally supervising the training of Team 7 at the training ground. Minato has lost Naruto for so many years, and now they are almost inseparable. It seems that they want to make up for all the lost time.
Even Naruto, who is very nervous, felt that something was wrong. Because this Minato-sensei seemed to be a little too kind to him.
However, Minato said that after he was his father's former friend, he stopped paying attention to her.
Seeing Aoba coming over, Minato knew something must be going on. These days, Aoba tried not to disturb Minato and Team 7, just hoping that Minato could spend more time with Naruto.
Minato knows it in his heart, that's why he works so hard.
"Is it time?" Minato walked up to Aoba and asked.
"That's almost it. Fourth Shinobi World War has decided to start the war. But the Shinobi World war is not the focus. Catching or killing the people behind the scenes is our goal. This time, I will be the commander of the front line.
And once I leave Konoha, that person will definitely take action against Naruto or even Konoha. The other party knows that I have Flying Thunder God. But Flying Thunder God is not invincible. I am not sure what means the other party will use to contain me.
Once I am unable to return, Konoha will need you to protect me."
"You resurrected us in advance just for this moment. Don't worry, leave it to us."
