Iwagakure, nearly a thousand people face Tailed Beast again. They have died here in five or six waves. The death of thousands of Shinobi makes Iwagakure's Shinobi a little scared.
But facing this kind of enemy, they cannot ignore it. Now they are in a dilemma. They want to live, but what about Tailed Beast rushing into the village? Recall what Ōnoki said.
No one is suppressing the other Tailed Beast, so we can only rely on them here, but most of them are just one Genin, and it is only through Combined Ninjutsu that we can get ahead in Shinobi World.
At this time, someone suddenly spoke loudly, "Why not let Konoha come to support? Konoha can easily fight against Tailed Beast. Also, why haven't I seen Five-Tails go berserk? Ōnoki, why are you hiding at the end?"
This voice directly addressed the entire audience through some kind of magic. Now everyone heard it, and the first one was the echo.
"Yes, why don't you find Konoha? Aren't we allies? How many more people will be sacrificed?"
"That's right, isn't our life life? Where is the Lord Tsuchikage person? Where is he?"
"We want to live, we don't want to die!"
The second is the angry voice towards Ōnoki.
"Ōnoki, don't you explain it? Are you going to stop us or let us die?"
"I'm still a little surprised, why even though the whole army has been wiped out so many times, you are the only one who is still alive."
The scene was mixed with various sounds, causing the scene to be very chaotic. Faced with all this, Four-Tails heard the key sound, thought about it, and roughly guessed the whole story.
Unexpectedly, Iwagakure actually used him as a tool to clean up the redundant population. Why are humans so evil? He couldn't understand, but he knew one thing, that is, not killing these talents is the right choice. He also wanted to see what choice this so-called Iwagakure would make.
So Four-Tails looked at the Iwagakure Ninja, glanced at it, and then turned and left. He was not a tool. If anyone stopped him, he would kill them, but this time, he would never destroy them all.
At this time, Ōnoki was a little confused, but he reacted in a very short time. "Mutiny? Damn it, it is still too frequent, what should I do?"
Then he gritted his teeth and said, "He is Spy arranged by Uchiha Mu. There is no such thing at all."
After saying that, Ōnoki used Dust Release and fired it directly at Tailed Beast, directly cutting off one of Four-Tails's tails. Suddenly, Four-Tails became furious, and the pain made him unable to hold back.
"Stop, Ōnoki What are you doing!?"
"Don't come here, don't come near us."
The scene was a mess, and Ōnoki was shuttled through it with its flexible flying ability. Four-Tails was now in a state of rage. Although they did not deliberately target these Ordinary People, it would be a disaster for these Genin if the attack targeting Ōnoki was avoided.
"Damn it, run away." People at the scene began to flee. Ōnoki looked at this scene and saw that there were still many people who had not been dealt with. Then he used Dust Release again and attacked Four-Tails. He wanted to completely anger the opponent.
And this is also true. The anger of the attacked Four-Tails was superimposed again, and it directly started to use Lava Release to change the terrain. This large-scale attack, the Genins could only use Combined Ninjutsu to resist, and they had not yet run out of the attack range of Four-Tails.
"Water Release..."
"Earth Release..."
However, it was of no use. They were overwhelmed by Lava Release, and now only a few people were left in the other direction. Ōnoki flew directly towards each other, followed by Tailed Beast.
"Damn it." Ōnoki looked at Tailed Beast who was chasing after him, and then flew high into the sky. He watched Shinobi who was the first to speak leave, and asked what he should do.
As he said that, he used Dust Release again in the air. This time it was no longer aimed at Tailed Beast, but at Shinobi in the same village. He would do anything for the survival of the village.
But before Dust Release touched it, he saw something. The guy turned around and smiled, and his whole body quickly dived into the ground, which made Ōnoki's eyes widen.
"Die!" Ōnoki increased the power and directly blasted out a huge pit with nothing inside. He didn't know whether he was dead or not, which made his face look ugly. At this time, Four-Tails's attack also arrived. He had no choice but to fly up vertically.
"Hope everything goes well." He could only pray like this.
Seeing that Four-Tails could no longer catch up, he stopped directly. Under normal circumstances, he should catch up with Iwagakure, but thinking about the other party's plan, if he did this, he would be playing into his own hands, which was not okay.
Being attacked and unable to avenge him made him very angry. He vomited Lava Release around him again, then turned around and left. He had to suppress his anger.
Ōnoki quickly returned to the village, looked at the relatively peaceful village, took a deep breath, and then set up an ambush near the entrance of the village. No one could be spared, otherwise there would be big problems in the village.
What he didn't know was that White Zetsu returned to the village and began to spread Photograph in the village. Thanks to Uchiha Mu's credit, Photograph and the like had long been popularized.
The ordinary Shinobi who saw all this opened their eyes wide. They couldn't believe it. The Tsuchikage they trusted the most, Ōnoki who had locked the next Tsuchikage, actually asked them to die.
I think this must be the seventh wave. There are nearly a thousand people each time, which is equivalent to 7,000 people. Can such a huge sacrifice really be decided so casually?
They couldn't help but have such suspicions, and then word spread, and all the ninjas in the village stopped performing their tasks and maintaining order, and marched towards the Tsuchikage's office. They wanted to maintain their own justice.
"Tsuchikage, please explain!"
"Tsuchikage, why arrange such a task!"
While the people on the street were shouting, Photograph were also being thrown away. That was on the battlefield. Ōnoki guided Tailed Beast to attack their Photograph. This was true even if they were fleeing in all directions. Even these Photograph were still there from before.
When they were struggling to resist Tailed Beast, Ōnoki turned around and ran away at the end, Photograph. These were all taken by White Zetsu in the melee. Just kidding, as an undercover agent, he was originally here to collect intelligence.
He was naturally bound to win this kind of Tailed Beast mission, but from the first time, White Zetsu didn't realize anything. He just took a photo and passed it to Uchiha Mu. Only then did he learn the purpose of Iwagakure, and he has been secretly collecting information here since then.
Seeing the Shinobis Protest March, the Ordinary Peoples in the village shunned one after another. They still stayed away from Shinobi. Of course, some Shinobi's family members could not accept that their sons died under the village's calculations, so they followed them to Protest March.
Iwagakure's ANBU, the senior officials saw this scene and went to see Tsuchikage one after another. They had more or less guessed it before. After all, they were the senior officials of the village and had a certain understanding of the village's finances.
Tsuchikage Wu looked at the crowd outside the window, frowning. It seemed that he had failed. Of course, with his ability, he could instantly kill these troublemakers, but by doing so, Iwagakure would be almost disbanded, and he must give them an explanation.
"You have to choose between disciples and the village? It's really a bad choice." Wu murmured softly.
"Tsuchikage, get out!"
"Tsuchikage, get out!"
People were shouting in unison outside, and Ōnoki, who was waiting outside, also realized something was abnormal in the village, and then flew back to confirm. Looking at the gathered Shinobi, his eyes widened and he was sweating.
Like Wu, he could also trap and kill these Shinobi, but this gathered a large number of Civilians Shinobi in the village, estimated to be ten thousand. If these people died, could they Iwagakure still exist? Now there was only one way, he looked at Tsuchikage Office.
His teacher is ready to come out. As long as his teacher tells him, he will cooperate. After defecting, he will stay outside the village and protect the village. No matter what, Iwagakure cannot disappear in their generation.
Tsuchikage stood at the highest point, looking at the people below, the village, the apprentices, Will of Stone, and various things flashed through his mind. He thought that Uchiha Mu might be behind this, but so what? He had no evidence.
Moreover, these villagers have Ōnoki's bloody evidence in their hands. For the sake of the village, the results must be given. This cannot be delayed, otherwise they will defeat themselves before Uchiha Mu takes action.
"Tsuchikage..."
"Jing Jing, I know this is a sad fact. Ōnoki is in charge of the village's finances..." Wu thought about it, but the village is more important. Let's have a good talk with Ōnoki afterwards.
Ōnoki was secretly observing in the air. Although he knew that this scene would happen, when he heard these words, his heart was still tense and his eyes were red. What was the meaning of everything he did.
Tsuchikage continued, "Our village's finances cannot support such a huge population, so Ōnoki told me that part of it needs to be consumed. I sternly refused, but I didn't expect... Of course, the idea of conquering Tailed Beast is also true."
Shinobi at the scene did not expect that Tsuchikage would tell the truth "truthfully". They thought they would find reasons, or just find any reason to send them away. But now that they heard this reason, many people were heartbroken.
"Are we a burden to the village?"
"What, then why does Tsuchikage encourage more students? If you can't afford it, why do you do it?"
"So, there are only two things we can do, one is to sacrifice ourselves, and the other is to leave here!" One of them said, but there were too many people, and his voice only reached the people near him.
Then Tsuchikage pressed down with his hand. "Quiet, I know the matter is serious, but in order to take care of everyone, the village has tried its best. This is a record..." Tsuchikage said without saying, and threw out the records of going to Daimyo to negotiate and "borrowing money" from other Great Nation nobles.
He knew that this would leave clues, but there were also benefits. People at the scene gathered together again, and they began to pass information to each other, confirming everything Tsuchikage had done before. The village had not given up on them, but there were bad people in the village.
"Lord Tsuchikage!"
"Lord Tsuchikage!!"
"Lord Tsuchikage, we leave on our own. As Shinobi, we can support ourselves."
At this moment, Tsuchikage's reputation reached its highest, but he was not happy. Is it worth sacrificing his disciple Ōnoki? He sensed the existence of Ōnoki.
"You can also go to Hundred-Clan Shinobi Nation to survive." Tsuchikage said while looking at everyone lowering their heads.
After another burst of cheers, everyone dispersed, but Wu knew that it would be impossible to mobilize explosive troops again in the future. He looked at the senior officials and said, "I'll be back as soon as I go."
The high-level officials stood here silently. They knew what Ōnoki was doing, but part of the village's funds were their interests, so they acquiesced in Ōnoki's approach, but they would not have anything to do with it. To put it simply, I have the interests, but not the blame.
In the air, the height here is already high enough that even Byakugan can't see it. It's safe to talk here. Looking at Ōnoki's vicissitudes of life, he has no words to say, "Ōnoki, I'm sorry, for the stability of the village, I have to do this."
"Lord Tsuchikage, I know, this is the best choice, I will leave the village." Ōnoki mustered up the courage to say this.
"Ōnoki..." Wu's expression was complicated. In the past, in private between the two of them, Ōnoki was either called Master Wu or teacher, but now he is called Lord Tsuchikage. He knew what this meant.
"If nothing happens, I'll leave first, Lord Tsuchikage, define me as Missing-nin, so that I can give them an explanation." Ōnoki didn't listen to what Wu said anymore, turned around and flew away.
Wu opened his mouth, but didn't say anything in the end. He never thought about killing him with Dust Release. After all, this was his plan from the beginning, but was this plan so easily exposed?
Thinking of this, Wu's eyes widened. Yes, is this so easy to expose? They had been spreading Photograph wildly in the village before, and then they had no time to feel sad for Ōnoki, so they quickly returned to Tsuchikage Office.
"Lord Tsuchikage."
"Collect the Photograph they spilled."
"Yes." Shinobi said and immediately left.
After everyone left, Wu sighed, "Ōnoki, maybe we should have done this a long time ago."
It didn't take long for Photograph to collect them all. Wu's face became more solemn as he looked at it. From Photograph, it could be confirmed that someone had been filming the previous few times, which meant that others had already planned it from the beginning.
Even if there was no evidence in this way, he believed that Uchiha Mu had done it, and then looked at the senior management. "I can trust you."
"Of course, Lord Tsuchikage." Everyone was sweating a little.
"Okay, don't think it's none of your business. I know exactly what you are doing in these matters." He spoke in a serious tone.
"Don't dare." Shinobi said quickly. One of them was White Zetsu in disguise. He followed the crowd and usually didn't talk. He specially found a replacement who only worked and didn't talk too much.
"Then let's take a look and see whose handiwork this is." Wu threw Photograph on the table.
Everyone Shinobi looked at me and I looked at you. In the end, White Zetsu took the lead and took a few pictures. Only then did the others start to watch, but the more they watched, the uglier their faces became.
"How about it? Understand, if you continue to stare at the petty profits in front of you, just wait until the village is destroyed and be liquidated by that guy Uchiha Mu. If you want to become the second Sunagakure." Wu said sarcastically, these guys are really stupid.
At this point, they are still fighting over what is available and what is not available, causing him to lose an outstanding disciple.
"Lord Tsuchikage, I think we should get Ōnoki back first. His strength is very important to us." One of them spoke first. He had a lot of money in Iwagakure and had a big house. If Iwagakure is really gone, then everything about him will be in vain.
