Chapter 338: Sand Village's Decision, the Third Ninja World War Begins

No one in a high position of power would like to have a sharp blade hanging over his head.

If this sharp blade was a lower level before, then the anger and unwillingness brought about by the change would linger in its mind day and night.

Three days ago, the Sunagakure high-level meeting was held again.

The previous fear of having their lives controlled by others has gradually faded, and the various techniques have gradually given them confidence.

Maybe, possibly, as long as I can...

This word kept appearing in the minds of several people, and the more they thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

"He is not a lone wolf. It is impossible for a lone wolf to master such a secret technique."

The old man with a hideous wound on one eye was looking at the Sand Village high-level leaders who had been reduced to five people.

"Since the First Shinobi World War, it has become a common practice for villages to place spies in each other's villages. The village leaders suffered heavy casualties, and this cannot be concealed."

Hearing this, the other people looked over.

"There are also spies from other ninja villages in the village. They don't think that Yugakure has become stronger. They only think that we have become weaker."

"He was just a kid from the Hidden Rain Village, and he killed so many people by himself."

"If we don't do something, we're going to be in a very dangerous situation."

After the words were spoken, everyone fell into deep thought.

That young brat... the crimson lightning, the space-time ninjutsu that can appear at will, the defensive taijutsu that even the puppet's blades and flames can't penetrate...

The voice begging for life is still ringing in my ears.

But at that time they only thought about surviving and did not consider the subsequent issues.

As one of the five major ninja villages, if Sunagakure is oppressed by one person, what will the other four ninja villages think?
Especially... at this time, we are on the verge of the Ninja World War.

"Boom."

The scroll was placed on the conference table.

Chiyo looked at the old men and said, "This is the analysis record of Codename (Mr.). No matter what the final decision is, I will not object."

These words made several people look at each other.

After Ebizo was killed by that man in front of this person, Chiyo was left alone, and even they were unwilling to provoke her.

But now this intelligence, plus what he said, is completely opposite to the way of analyzing intelligence...

"Chiyo..."

An old man started to speak, but Chiyo raised her hand to interrupt him.

"I want revenge very much. As soon as I close my eyes, my brother's tragic death will appear before me. But the price of revenge will never end with the destruction of Sunagakure."

"That person is very powerful. Even my ten strongest puppets, combined with the three treasures, may not be able to kill him..."

"So you can make any decision you want. I will abstain from voting throughout this meeting."

After the words were spoken, they looked at each other and began to pass the intelligence scroll around.

The more they watched, the more their hearts churned.

The red thunder can dissipate magic, which is more like the killing intent that can act on the inner spiritual level.

Those who cannot resist will fall to the ground and become unconscious.

And even if they can withstand it... their movements will be restricted, or even impossible to move at all.

Black matter, perception, and even the ability to control fire.

The flames ejected from the puppet were controlled by him with one hand, and he dissipated them with a casual squeeze. This scene was recalled by several people again.

……

After a long time, the meeting room was silent.

dilemma.

At this time, there were constant conflicts between the five major ninja villages in various countries. If it weren't for the sudden outbreak of the Rain Country in the middle, the war between Sand Village and Konoha would probably have already begun by now.

If you don't fight a war, you will be looked down upon. If you look down upon others, you will most likely be eaten up by the other four great ninja villages.

Beat... The deterrent power represented by that (Mr.) is really frightening.

"We need the power to limit his time and space ninjutsu, and also the consideration to force him to fight to the death."

"The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, went to Kumogakure for a talk. The Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Kumogakure rebelled, and in order to cover the retreat of his disciples, Tobirama Senju died in battle."

"so we……"

"No. That (sir) is different from the Senju clan. He is decisive in killing and is definitely not a naive person like Senju Hashirama."

……

"Boom."

"So should we fight or not?"

He was so anxious that he obviously couldn't bear it anymore.

In the end, they decided to respond to Yuyin in another way.

……

Time goes back three days.

The Rain Country Academy was closed for one day, and everyone including Heishan went to the border to meet the enemy.

In the office of Academy No. 1, Kevin and Hanzo were talking.

"The formation of the revolution is only in the initial stage, and it should have developed in a hidden way. But the growth of domineering power requires fighting, and the geographical location of the Rain Country also makes it impossible to remain quiet."

Kevin looked at Hanzo and said, "Going to Sunagakure is not to stop all troubles by yourself."

Hanzo's eyes narrowed slightly. "Are you trying to intimidate them? To make them afraid to kill you?"

Kevin shook his head slightly: "No one can guarantee that everyone will be safe and sound... But if you want to change your own destiny, if you want to change the destiny of the world, if you want to make your will firm..."

"They need to experience this and see what the world is like now. If they just work in isolation, they will just end up being stupid people who talk big."

……

Hanzo left, he also needed to go to the border.

Kevin, on the other hand, glanced at the snake in the dark corner of the wall.

"Do you have a question, too?"

The little snake shook its head, then quickly slipped into the crack in the corner of the wall and left.

……

Conflict breaks out at the border of the Rain Country.

There was a constant roar between the mountains and forests, and the wind blades swept through the trees, cutting off one by one. The two ninjas of Yuyin were forced into a desperate situation, and one of them was cut in half.

A figure fell down, with the short sword in his hand covered with armed color domineering, blocking the wind blade while saving the rain ninja behind him.

"boom!"

The ground beneath his feet cracked.

shave!
In an instant, he rushed to the front of the Sand Ninja at an extremely fast speed, swept the short knife in his hand, and directly cut off the hand that was making a seal.

At the same time, the neck was cut horizontally, the aorta was severed, and blood splattered out.

Without stopping, Naoki turned and left again before the raging flames swept over.

"Shh..."

With the strange noise, layers of sand and gravel rolled on the ground.

The golden sand formed into sharp blades and swept towards Naoki.

"boom!"

With one punch, the gold sand exploded.

But the flying sand gathered together again as if it had life.

Just as he was about to draw his sword, Naoki found that his feet were also bound. Golden sand gathered and spread upwards, temporarily enveloping him.

Magnetic Release: Gold Sand Burial!
The sound of explosions roared through the gravel. However, after the gravel subsided, a shattered figure was still standing.

"how is this possible?"

Luo Sha exclaimed, waving his hands again.

The gold dust condensed into shape again and fell like sharp thorns.

"Boom boom boom..."

The gold dust hit the ground, piercing a hole in the ground with each strike.

However, Naoki avoided each attack by a hair's breadth.

"This again! Asshole!"

Luo Sha frowned.

The ability to sense attacks from all around makes the ninja's concealment a joke.

Although the ambush set up by Yu Shinobi as bait was effective, it was obvious that even the Gold Sand Funeral could not completely kill it.

At this time, Naoki's forehead was covered with sweat, and his left hand was still hanging down, bleeding.

The left hand...is gone.

Naoki gritted his teeth, listened to the attacks from all around him with his Observation Haki, dodged and swung his sword to block, and only in this way could he barely save his life.

Careless.

Since the contact, relying on the Haki, Six Styles and swordsmanship taught by the teacher, the conflict with the Sand Village can be said to have an overwhelming advantage.

But obviously, this does not mean strong.

In addition to the gap in intelligence, perhaps the other party had other reasons for doing it on purpose.

And the purpose is now.

cut!
The puppet that was rushing forward was cut off, but dozens of small puppets suddenly rushed out of its body, each with a burning detonating talisman attached to it.

"boom……"

There was a loud roar and the forest on the border collapsed.

After the dust settled, strands of gold sand flowed out and pulled up the limbs of Naoki that were bound in the ruins.

"You're still alive after all this? You guys are really lucky..."

Luo Sha led the two teams to look at Naoki.

At this time, Naoki was covered in wounds and spurted out a mouthful of blood, but he smiled and said, "I was not lucky... I died when I was three years old. In the Rain Country, any disaster can easily take a person's life, and war is the biggest disaster."

Luosha crossed his arms across his chest, and strands of gold dust still bound Naoki.

"You had no choice because of your location, and it's still the same now."

"Hand over the secret technique that can cover the skin and form a black substance, as well as the secret technique of perception and so on. Then I can let you go."

Hearing this, Naoki chuckled and raised his head with a look of disdain: "So this is the purpose of your ambush? From the beginning until now, you have thrown out baits one after another, just for now..."

"But unfortunately, you can't get what you want..."

Luo Sha frowned, "You should be very clear about your situation. Telling it out will make you feel better and save your life. We can even grant you the status of a Sand Ninja. As a member of one of the five great ninja villages, you and your descendants will no longer have to live in fear of war all the time like in the Rain Country."

"laugh……"

Naoki's expression was still contemptuous, but then he became sad, sad about his so-called fate in the past.

"People like us have always been as humble as ants in front of you. Even an identity seems like a charity that allows us to leap up the social ladder."

"But even for people like us, the master teaches us thoughts day after day, teaches us how to master power, and teaches us how to distinguish between good and evil and right and wrong."

"As lowly as dust, I still want to roar against my fate."

"The teacher said that only if our generation changes the world can we prevent those who come after us from having to succumb to fate. Only by making sacrifices and having great ambitions can we dare to change the sun and the moon into a new world."

"This slang phrase is also the one I remember most firmly during class. Only by pulling down those who are high above, there will be no one above them!"

The moment he finished speaking, his entire body, which was already covered in wounds, dried up like a sponge.

Life...returned!
The injury is relieved at the cost of life, but if there is no intake, the fat energy in the body is consumed.

"Om..."

Under the cover of the armed color domineering, the bones were broken, but the gold sand was also shattered.

The dagger swung back and suddenly stabbed towards his heart.

"Shh!"

A kunai flew by and hit the dagger's blade, knocking it away.

Naoki looked not far away and saw Aoki rushing over, picking him up and retreating.

The gold sand surged and chased, but it was of no avail at this moment.

"asshole!"

Luo Sha cursed, but could only watch.

He couldn't even catch up with the sand and gravel that had been moved away, let alone the puppets that had been moved away by the puppeteer next to him.

But the other party's suicidal determination just now still shocked him.

Ninjas have a variety of methods. Each village has its own torture department, and the captain has unique methods.

Although they do not have the same convenient abilities as the Konohagakure clan, the Sand Village also has their own methods.

Knowing this, the other party, at the moment of breaking free from his restraints, did not think about breaking through and killing the enemy but about ending his own life.

This will to not fear life and death is simply...

"Sir, shall we pursue him?"

"withdraw."

……

The battle of Sunagakure's invasion of the Rain Country lasted only five days.

On the morning of the fifth day, teams of Sand Village took a detour and broke through Konoha's border. This surprise attack caused Konoha to suffer heavy losses.

……

Konoha, Hokage Building.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kado En, and Utane Koharu, all four of them are here at the moment.

"The Sunagakure is openly targeting the Rain Country, but they are still trying to attack us secretly!"

Danzo said gloomily: "It is possible that the Rain Country has only had Hanzo since the beginning. Everything before was a play performed by Sunagakure and Amegakure!"

Danzo turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "You need to be responsible for the actions against Amegakure! If it weren't for you, Hiruzen, asking Tsunade to only pick up people, causing a cognitive bias, there wouldn't be such a big loss this time!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was still smoking his pipe and was not at all flustered when facing the questioning.

After a while, the pipe tapped against the desk.

"Whether I am responsible can be questioned by the jonin squad or by the Fire Country Daimyo. Danzo... I am the Hokage!"

Hearing this, Danzo clenched his hands as if his heart was stabbed.

Yes, he is the Hokage.

Because of his momentary cowardice, he became Hokage.

But only I...only I can restore Konoha's glory again!
Even if it means losing the eyes of my best friend, I will do it!

"Huruzen, we need to understand the true situation of Rain Village. But the most important thing now is the problem of Sand Village."

Utane Koharu said, looking at Danzo again: "Regarding the disappearance of the Third Kazekage..."

Danzo said angrily: "I am known as the strongest Kazekage, and I disappeared in the Sand Village. Do you think I have such power?"

Mitomon En narrowed his eyes and said, "Jiraiya has returned from Amegakure. He should know the strengths and weaknesses of Amegakure."

Sarutobi Hiruzen replied in a deep voice: "It is true. The young man called Mr. in the Land of Rain and his disciples are all very strong, and they all master a certain secret technique."
