Although Land of Rain is fighting fiercely here, because it is close to Land of Fire, Land of Grass and Land of Earth, it is bordered by the most intense battlefield in Shinobi World at the moment - so it is also paying certain attention to the situation outside.
Forget about small things, but bigger wars will all come to Akatsuki.
"Konoha blew up Kannabi Bridge?"
"Huh?"
"That is the only way for the Iwagakure troops to supply, and it has important strategic value--Konoha's move obviously forced the Iwagakure troops to be unable to sustain themselves. Over time, they had to evacuate. The person who led the team to run the mission seemed to be the Yellow Flash of Konoha--"
"Minato Namikaze."
"Yes, that's him."
Yubi listened to the discussion coming from behind and knew that Third Shinobi World War would be over soon.
Ever since Ōnoki sent more than a thousand troops to attack Land of Fire and invested such a heavy force, Konoha has not been captured for such a long time - naturally there is nothing to continue fighting.
There is no hope of winning.
What is the current level of battlefield pressure?
Among the Ninja Academy newcomers in major villages, there are cases where they graduate at the age of nine, run missions at the age of seven, and set foot on the battlefield at the age of five.
Even if it is not the norm, it is enough to illustrate the seriousness of the problem.
Several ninja villages are extremely short of available manpower - dispatching more than a thousand troops is already Iwagakure's last big gamble.
Still no results.
Konoha once again showed the same super toughness as Second Shinobi World War" - only this time, the people who shoulder the glory of Konoha are no longer strong men of the older generation such as Sannin and White Fang, but representatives of the new generation headed by Minato Namikaze.
Although Orochimaru also made great contributions to Konoha in this Shinobi World war, in terms of shine, it was indeed snatched away by Minato Namikaze's generation - Shinobi World always likes to focus on some new faces.
"The old man must be unwilling to give up. Maybe he hates Sunagakure for selling the medicine to Konoha, or else, Sunagakure didn't fight to the end - there is The battlefield pressure brought by Sunagakure to Konoha, maybe Kannabi Bridge's battle and Iwagakure's dispatch of troops will not end in this way." Yubi secretly said.
The person he was referring to was none other than Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki.
This is a question from a strategic perspective.
After all, Sunagakure had no intention of deeply participating in the battlefield from the beginning - otherwise, it would not have developed to this extent smoothly in the past few years.
Once it is plunged into the quagmire of war, the losses it will bring to the village are no joke.
In addition, the four major ninja villages, including Iwagakure, are all targets that Yubi deliberately wants to weaken.
Let them fight with each other and consume each other.
The purpose is to take the next step and conquer Land of Rain so that other ninja villages cannot interfere.
"It seems that the war over Land of Grass will be over soon. Once Iwagakure retreats - Kumogakure's side will be out of shape long ago. The only thing Konoha needs to care about is It's just Kirigakure. And Land of Water is far away from the land, and the situation in their village is not good, and its impact on the land war is very limited - no matter how hard you try, there is no way to really threaten Konoha."
An Akatsuki management member analyzed.
"Sunagakure's side has long since withdrawn from the battlefield and has reached an armistice agreement with several villages."
"It seems that the Shinobi World war that has lasted for several years is finally coming to an end--"
Someone echoed.
"We here also need to work hard."
"Hmm""
Yubi slowly stood up and returned to the depths of the cave.
Looking at the wars over the past few years, Konoha suffered the most serious damage from the battle with Sunagakure.
The butterfly effect caused by his appearance, that is, the replica Battle of Kikyo Pass, although it also greatly damaged Konoha's vitality, but it was a joint effort between the two villages Iwagakure and Kirigakure, not a single battle.
"It would be fun to fight now--"
Seeing Yubi approaching, the people who were talking got out of the way.
Yubi had a thought. The person he was thinking of was none other than Minato Namikaze.
Since he took over Fourth Kazekage, he has naturally been paying attention to the information about Shinobi World's battle, especially Minato Namikaze's outstanding achievements.
He retired from the battlefield almost two and a half years ago - and after two and a half years, under the pressure of the village facing various dangers, Minato Namikaze's strength has naturally increased rapidly.
Now that Minato has developed Flying Thunder God Technique and mastered Rasengan - the combat power has definitely transformed to another level.
It is no longer the guy who just had full speed points and a serious lack of output.
Battle of Kannabi Bridge, only accelerated the end of Third Shinobi World War.
It didn't end directly.
There will be a series of small battles later.
Every time the Shinobi World war ends, even if several ninja villages seem to have stopped, the chain reaction caused will still last for a while.
The same was true for the last Shinobi World war.
However, when it comes to the surveillance of Shinobi World's battlefield later, Yubi can only learn about it through village messages.
The energy on Akatsuki's side seems to have been affected by the Shinobi World war, and they began to concentrate on further liberating the country, and were less concerned about external matters.
Not long after that, Yubi received the news that Rin Nohara died at the hands of Kakashi.
Madara banned some people Rin Nohara and Kirigakure Cursed Seal.
They cannot commit suicide after being infected by this kind of Cursed Seal, and can only escape by dying at the hands of others - this is also one of Madara's methods of controlling Kirigakure.
"Almost--"
Yubi destroyed the letter in his hand and looked at the forest in the distance, where two bodies were swaying, acting according to their own will, the dead summoned by Impure World Reincarnation, and murmuring softly.
"What's going on? Am I not already dead?
"This feeling - is that I am being controlled -"
"Damn it, who are you?"
Although their actions were controlled by Yubi, the words in their mouths had independent thinking and will, and they kept yelling and cursing.
Yubi picked up a magic seal with one hand and said an explanation.
The next second, the two living people suddenly lost their vitality and their souls returned to the underworld.
"It's almost there - basically I can use it relatively freely, but the power is still a bit weak. Even at this level, I can't completely erase the will." Yubi said.
This experimental site, far away from Akatsuki's stronghold, is a barren mountain and old forest.
Thinking about it, he turned and left.
On the way back, he happened to bump into Akatsuki members who were out looking for him.
"Senior Ye, Master Nagato is looking for you."
The people of Xiao respect Tao.
"Got it."
Yubi responded.
Returned to the base with him.
Nagato avoided Yahiko and followed Yubi into a stone room alone.
"Amegakure wants to recruit you and formally incorporate Xiao?"
Yubi smiled slightly after hearing the news relayed by Nagato.
"Yeah - but Yahiko refused. Hanzō wanted to use this method to bribe us, but what Yahiko wants is a formal negotiation and communication that can determine and change Land of Rain's future opportunities." Nagato nodded.
Although Yubi never interfered in Xiao's decision-making, his precise analysis and judgment had already conquered Nagato every time before Xiao's actions.
He also knows that Yahiko's character is difficult to change.
Therefore, in Nagato's view, it would be great if we could listen to some suggestions from Yubi and use his hands to let the organization make some subtle changes.
"So, what do you want to say when you come to me?"
Yubi looked directly at Nagato.
"I do not advocate negotiating with Amegakure - Like you, Senior Ye, I believe that if we want to move toward peace, we must create it ourselves. And now, the organization has proven that we can accomplish all this by ourselves, Yahiko Although rejected Amegakure this time, judging from his attitude and reaction, it seems that he rejected the other party just because Hanzō did not want to talk to us. But if next time--
Nagato hesitated to speak.
"You think Hanzo of the Salamander is probably up to some conspiracy and you can't trust him at all, right?"
Under the mask, Yubi raised the corners of his mouth.
"Yes."
Nagato nodded.
"But even though he knows it's a conspiracy, once he gets the chance - Yahiko will agree without hesitation and decide Akatsuki's fate in his own way."
Yubi said, "Your vision is too superficial - with the current Land of Rain situation, Amegakure can no longer suppress the organization. In other words, Hanzō alone can no longer suppress the enemy. In this situation, in order to solve the serious problem he has, what will he do?"
Nagato frowned, unable to think of anything for a moment.
"We will definitely use external forces."
Yubi gave the answer.
Here, he intentionally misinterpreted the reason why Danzo will appear in the future.
Danzo just used Konoha's vested interests and used strategies to help Hanzō deal with Xiao's troubles.
But on the surface, Konoha did not officially send troops to assist Amegakure and deal with Akatsuki.
Belonging is a private "action" of the root.
But Yubi doesn't mind adding a little more detail here.
"External?"
Sure enough, when he said this, Nagato looked surprised.
Nagato has no doubts about Yubi's conclusion.
Because for nearly a year, every analysis by Yubi was like a prophet, making perfect predictions.
This made Nagato believe in his words.
"Konoha."
Yubi spit out two words.
Looking at Nagato, I couldn't understand it and seemed a little unbelievable.
Yubi said in a deep voice, "Shinobi World The war is coming to an end. For Konoha, in the next few years, they need a stable environment to recover. Hanzo of the Salamander Now it's a bit like enjoying life. As long as he is still in office, Land of Rain and Land of Fire will live in peace. On the contrary, your appearance is a huge variable in Konoha's view."
"If you take control of Land of Rain, the new king will definitely start a series of changes - and Konoha himself doesn't know you well enough. The concept of peace is a joke to Konoha, who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Therefore, getting rid of you - will also be beneficial to Konoha."
"Otherwise, what if you take control of Land of Rain and launch a new round of war against Land of Fire?"
"Land of Rain is a strategic location, bordering the four countries of wind, earth, grass, and fire. Who knows whether your current "style" of Akatsuki is real or fake? Just take precautions before it happens--"
Yubi's words made Nagato lose his voice immediately.
"But Konoha--"
Nagato swallowed.
"Hmph, don't think too highly of Konoha - your teacher, Jiraiya, one of the Konoha Sannins, is just an example. Besides, he himself is not Konoha High Command now - don't have preconceived notions about them."
"Help Hanzō deal with you - at least, it will make Amegakure owe Konoha a favor."
"Another point is the potential you have shown - if Hanzō really succeeds in joining forces with you, it will be a huge threat to Konoha. So, believe me, from various angles, Konoha will definitely intervene in this matter."
The answer given by Yubi is reasonable and well-founded.
Regarding Jiraiya, Yubi has long heard about it from Nagato and Konan.
"Maybe--Yahiko will die."
Yubi's tone suddenly turned cold.
"Then what do we do?"
At this moment, Nagato's heart immediately became confused.
"Don't be nervous--Amegakure If you look for foreign aid, you Xiao naturally can also use external forces."
Yubi reassured.
,"
Hearing this, Nagato immediately reacted.
All along, the trio knew that behind Ye, there was a certain force from Shinobi World.
"Don't worry, it's not me."
"I have been dormant in your organization for nearly a year, and there has been no progress at all regarding cooperation. The big people behind me have long been impatient and are very disappointed with me. Otherwise, why do you think I have time to waste on you-"
Yubi pretended to be helpless and sighed, "Besides, I've helped you a lot this year, right? If I had harmful intentions, not to mention others, just you three core members of Akatsuki, I'm afraid something would have happened a long time ago."
"Besides, the ones you have to deal with in the future are Amegakure and Konoha--"
"This is a joint effort between two ninja villages, and it's not just a small fish or shrimp. The forces behind me don't have this kind of power. Looking at the entire Shinobi World, there are not many forces that are qualified to help you--"
"Even now, you are still questioning me, which makes me very sad--Nagato.
"Sorry, Senior Ye."
After saying that, Nagato's cheeks turned red and he immediately lowered his head to apologize.
"However, relying on the help of external forces - this is something that Yahiko will never agree to. It violates Akatsuki's principles."
"So, he will definitely die."
Yubi snorted.
"I'll show you a clear path - it's up to you to choose."
Yubi stretched out a finger. "Since Yahiko cannot change, then - the next time Hanzō throws out an olive branch to lure Yahiko into taking the bait, he will die because of it. Looking at the whole The only one Shinobi World who can save him is Fourth Kazekage, and the only one who wants to help you fight against Konoha and Amegakure is Sunagakure."
"You come to deal with Amegakure, Sunagakure comes to deal with Konoha, just right."
"You can try to contact Fourth Kazekage first. You don't have to cooperate with them - first find a way to solve the deadlock Hanzō has set for you."
"Perhaps, Konoha is already communicating privately with Amegakure to target you--"
"If by that time, Konoha's people show up, and Yahiko is also dead - it will naturally prove that what I said is right."
After being "undercover" for so long, when the time came, Yubi finally opened his fangs."
Nagato remained silent, thinking.
After nearly a year of contact and living together, he and Senior Ye have become a little closer.
People within the organization also respect him very much.
At this time, the other party proposed the power Sunagakure, which in Nagato's view was normal.
If everything is really as analyzed by the seniors, then the only one who can really compete with Konoha is Sunagakure, who is also one of Five Great Shinobi Villages.
As for Senior Ye being Sunagakure's person, Nagato didn't think about it at all.
Because, it's impossible.
Ye entered "Dawn" relatively early, and the organization at that time did not have the momentum and scale it has today.
As for Sunagakure, who was in full swing, he would not even pay attention to a private organization in a small country. On the surface at that time, Amegakure was still a symbol of the regime that firmly controlled Land of Rain.
Akatsuki Although Shinobi World has gained some fame"--
But Sunagakure wouldn't waste nearly a year on them."
Who is Sunagakure?
The biggest winner in this Shinobi World war is the ruthless character who made even Konoha suffer. In comparison, they are not even qualified to enter other people's eyes.
Besides, after all this time, everyone can see Senior Ye's contribution to the organization.
Nagato Although he knew that the other party had some thoughts, he still trusted the latter a long time ago.
Now, when Senior Jingye says that the forces behind him have long been disappointed with him and have no intention of cooperating with Xiao anymore, Nagato has no reason not to believe it.
Because from the very beginning, after Yahiko refused to cooperate, the seniors did not bring up the matter of cooperation again.
Pulling out Sunagakure now is also the trend of the situation, not a personal idea.
I'm helping him solve a problem.
"Actually, I have long seen that for you and Konan, Yahiko's personal importance is far higher than that of the organization. Even if Xiao is destroyed, you don't want Yahiko to die -" Yubi walked aside, leaned against the wall, and held his hands.
"Hmm."
Nagato responded.
"For you, the cooperation with Sunagakure must not be known to Yahiko and must be carried out secretly - you don't have to believe what I say, but when the time comes, the facts will prove everything. What you have to do now is to first win over Fourth Kazekage from Sunagakure, who is willing to help you - of course, you have to pay a price."
Yubi continued to lie, "If I guess wrong - at most it will make Sunagakure unhappy, but at least Yahiko is not dead. But if I guess right, Yahiko would not have lost his life. At the worst, we can ask for his forgiveness afterwards - Yahiko is alive and Akatsuki is not falling apart - no matter how you look at it, it is all worth it."
Nagato.
"You make up your own mind, I'm just a suggestion, I didn't say that you must cooperate with Sunagakure - don't be too forced."
Yubi walked out of the stone room slowly and waved.
"I--I'll go discuss it with Konan."
Nagato hesitated for a moment and said.
"Hmm.
Yubi responded casually.
From beginning to end, he seemed to be a character who stayed out of the situation."
But in fact, the corners of the mouth under the mask can no longer be suppressed.
Nagato strategy successful!
Next is Konan--it's probably fine too.
Because, Yahiko is their biggest weakness."
