After obtaining the Scroll of Seals, Ziyun smiled.
The Scroll of Seals of Konoha is more valuable than the Scroll of Seals of Iwagakure. The Ninjutsu on it can be studied to enhance the fighting power of Kumogakure.
Some of the Ninjutsu mentioned here are of interest to Ziyun, such as the Eight Gates and the Flying Thunder God.
As for the reanimated Kumo no Mi, it's not really that important. After all, there aren't many great figures in the history of Kumogakure, and the Third Raikage is still alive and well. This ninjutsu isn't very meaningful to Kumogakure, but it's quite significant to Konoha.
The land issue is more complicated, involving various procedures and the relocation of local residents, which are headaches to deal with.
Fortunately Mei Terumi was also in the group, so she was entrusted with handling all these matters.
It's worth mentioning that Kushina was still worried, and she also planned to handle it together with Mei Terumi.
Actually, it wasn't that she was worried; it was that Kushina was jealous because Ziyun and Mei Terumi spent more time together than she did.
She was terrified that Mei Terumi might steal Ziyun away if she wasn't careful, so Kushina had to keep a close eye on this Mei Terumi at all times to prevent her from taking advantage of any opening.
Soon after, news of Konoha's surrender to Kumogakure spread throughout the entire Shinobi World, and even news of the cession of territory spread.
After all, it's half of the Land of Land of Fire; it's impossible to keep such a big commotion a secret.
This aroused envy among the other ninja villages.
That's the most fertile land in the Land of Fire! Half of it has been taken over by the Kumogakure. Doesn't that mean the Kumogakure's economy is about to take off?
Seeing the benefits that Kumogakure received after Konoha surrendered, the other major ninja villages were green with envy.
Good heavens! With half of the Land of Land of Fire's land, plus 20% of Konoha's annual income, Kumogakure's economy is about to take off.
Especially the Fourth Kazekage Rasa and the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki, whose two great ninja villages were originally at war, immediately announced that they would stop fighting after hearing the news.
It's pointless. My two poor brothers are just messing around here, while the Kumogakure pulled off a big heist as soon as they arrived.
What's the point of fighting? The biggest benefits have all been taken by the Kumogakure. They've worked themselves to the bone and haven't even gotten a penny. Ōnoki and Rasa immediately lost all interest in fighting.
Therefore, the two ninja villages announced a truce.
" Ziyun, is the Third Shinobi World War about to end?"
Upon hearing this news, Kushina quickly asked Ziyun.
From beginning to end, the Third Shinobi World War lasted less than three months, ending in the blink of an eye.
"It's probably not over yet. Let's just wait and see. Anyway, we've already secured the biggest profits."
However, Ziyun doesn't think so.
The reason is simple: the system's rewards haven't been distributed yet, and the Ten-Tails Chakra he's been longing for hasn't arrived.
This indicates that the Third Shinobi World War is far from over, and someone is definitely plotting something.
However, the Shinobi World War in Kumogakure was considered over, as they had secured the greatest benefits. As for poor villages like Iwagakure and Sunagakure, Ziyun had little interest in them.
Of course, if any village is willing to pay for Kumogakure's help, Ziyun wouldn't mind, as long as the money is sufficient.
"That damned Yeyue Ziyun! His strength is too great; the war ended before it even started."
Meanwhile, Madara Uchiha, who was in Kirigakure, was also furious upon hearing the news.
After Ziyun took control of the Third Mizukage and wiped out the elite ninjas and bloodline clans of Kirigakure...
He had already had White Zetsu devise a perfect plan, and was just about to implement it when the war suddenly came to an abrupt halt.
What should we do?
It's important to understand that Madara Uchiha's life force is already running out. If a successor isn't found quickly, the Eye of the Moon Plan will be ruined.
All of this is because of this guy, Yeyue Ziyun, whose strength is too great and has affected the balance of the Shinobi World.
This caused the Fourth Shinobi World War to end too quickly, so Madara blamed it all on Ziyun.
At the same time, Ziyun sneezed loudly.
"No matter what, we can't let this war end so quickly. White Zetsu, go and discuss it with Ōnoki and the current Kazekage. Tell them that Kirigakure is willing to form an alliance with them and take advantage of the situation to conquer Konoha..."
However, these difficulties were no match for Madara Uchiha, who immediately came up with a new idea.
Konoha had just defeated Kumogakure and ceded territory, leaving it at its lowest point in terms of losses and morale.
This is the perfect opportunity to conquer Konoha. Iwagakure and Sunagakure surely think so too, so all I need to do is extend an olive branch, and the great war will naturally begin a second time.
Madara Uchiha then controlled the Third Mizukage, ordering Anbu to instruct the Kirigakure's Third Mizukage to form an alliance with Iwagakure or the Sunagakure to launch an attack on Konoha.
Soon the ninjas from Kirigakure arrived at Iwagakure.
"Father, people from Kirigakure have come to discuss an alliance with us. They say that Konoha is currently at its weakest, and we can take advantage of this to conquer Konoha and also get a share of the spoils."
Soon, Ōnoki's foolish son, Kitsuchi, led the Kirigakure ninjas to meet Ōnoki.
"Alright, since Kirigakure has this idea, then Kirigakure will act first, and Iwagakure will provide support from behind."
"Alright, go and inform the Third Mizukage."
Ōnoki was a cunning old man; he agreed to Kirigakure's request, but at the same time, he set a Kirigakure for them.
Ōnoki knew Konoha's strength; although they suffered a crushing defeat in the battle against Kumogakure, none of Konoha's Kage Level shinobi had perished.
If it were so easy to conquer, he would have done it long ago; why wait until now?
Now that Kirigakure has delivered itself to our doorstep, it's a perfect opportunity for Kirigakure to make the first move and probe Konoha's strength. After Kirigakure and Konoha have exhausted each other for a while, Iwagakure can then strike and pick up the pieces. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
After receiving news of Ōnoki's recovery, Madara Uchiha coldly. Of course, he knew what Ōnoki was thinking.
However, Madara Uchiha didn't care about the lives of the Kirigakure ninjas and directly sent 3,000 Kirigakure Ninja to declare war on Konoha.
Meanwhile, Sunagakure also received a hint from Kirigakure.
The newly appointed Fourth Kazekage Rasa, is still very young. Upon hearing of this good news, he prepared to gather the Sunagakure's army to attack Konoha.
The reason is simple: Rasa's position as the Fourth Kazekage is not secure.
On one hand, the Third Kazekage has only disappeared, and his body has not been found, so it is unknown whether the Third Kazekage is dead or not.
Secondly, he was only acting as the Kazekage. If the other members of Sunagakure performed exceptionally well during the great battle, he might lose his Kazekage at any time.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, Rasa needed to establish his authority in Sunagakure as soon as possible.
The best way to establish authority is undoubtedly through war. As long as he can win a few battles and secure some benefits for Sunagakure, his position as the Fourth Kazekage will be secure.
He might even be able to surpass the Third Kazekage and earn the title of [ Strongest Kazekage ].
Rasa then prepared to take action against Konoha, but before that, he needed to consult with the two elders of Sunagakure, Chiyo and Ebizo.
Fortunately, Chiyo and Ebizo quickly agreed.
In their view, this was the best opportunity to take a bite out of Konoha.
So the Fourth Kazekage immediately came up with a good idea: to pin the blame for the Third Kazekage's disappearance on Konoha.
Upon hearing this news, the Sunagakure Ninja were immediately enraged and wanted to confront Konoha on the spot.
A few days later, the Sunagakure Ninja gathered in a large force on the western border of the Land of Fire.
"Damn Sunagakure and Kirigakure, they actually took advantage of our misfortune!"
Upon receiving this news, Hiruzen Sarutobi his fist on the table in anger.
After its defeat in the battle against Kumogakure, Konoha's status plummeted, and even villages like Sunagakure and Kirigakure dared to attack Konoha.
"This is outrageous! This is blatant profiteering! But we can't back down; we have to teach them a lesson."
Jiraiya was also furious.
He was already frustrated enough with the battle against Kumogakure, and now Sunagakure and Kirigakure have also come to join the fray. It seems he has no choice but to strike hard.

" Konoha must show its strength to everyone, otherwise there will be a constant stream of ninja villages trying to challenge Konoha."
At this moment, Danzo also came in, having also learned of the attack on Konoha by Sunagakure and Kirigakure.
Meanwhile, Iwagakure is also assembling its ninja forces. Although they haven't made a move yet, given Ōnoki's personality, he'll inevitably get involved in this war sooner or later; it's just a matter of time.
Danzo was so proactive because he had heard about the Land of Fire Daimyo's dissatisfaction with Hiruzen Sarutobi.
This also means that Hiruzen Sarutobi will definitely be dismissed after this war.
He wasn't dismissed because the war wasn't over. Dismissing him midway would easily demoralize the Konoha Ninja, especially since Hiruzen Sarutobi had controlled Konoha for many years, and most of the Konoha's ninja still respected him.
Therefore, Danzo decided to make a name for himself in this great battle to establish his authority, which would make it easier for him to run for Hokage in the future.
"Snort."
Upon seeing Danzo Jiraiya snorted coldly; he had absolutely no liking for that Danzo dog.
However, now that war has broken out again, we can't afford to argue with Danzo anymore.
"Now is the time to show Konoha's might, otherwise everyone will think Konoha is a pushover that can be easily bullied."
Hiruzen Sarutobi also became more assertive.
Kumogakure may not be able to defeat Konoha, but does Sunagakure, a Sunagakure, dare to challenge Konoha?
Putting everything else aside, Konoha has several times more Kage Level shinobi than Sunagakure. Besides having an advantage in numbers, what other advantages does Sunagakure have?
They dare to invade Konoha? We must forcefully drive Sunagakure back.
Konoha then issued a statement saying that the Third Kazekage of Sunagakure had nothing to do with Konoha and that Sunagakure's incompetence led to the Third Kazekage's disappearance.
This statement enraged Sunagakure even more than telling the Third Kazekage Sunagakure Konoha had killed him.
After all, this insult included all the ninjas of Sunagakure.
