Chapter 198: Ahead is hell!
On the edge of a towering cliff, Obito's crimson Sharingan looked through the Uzumaki mask and overlooked the plains below.

The pitcher plant White Zetsu half popped out from behind him.

"Obito, the four great nations have formed an alliance, and the Fourth Ninja World War is about to begin."

Listening to White Zetsu's report, Obito's eyes were calm, as if he had foreseen this scene.

"This is our chance!"

Black Jue said in a deep voice.

"Obito, Namikaze Mirai has been away from Konoha for a long time. No one knows where he went. There is no better opportunity than now."

"The chaos brought by the war will be the best stepping stone for the Moon Eye Project!"

Black Zetsu never expected that the Akatsuki organization would become like this.

In his opinion, with Obito, a chess piece that Madara had been planning for a long time, and Nagato, who had implanted the Rinnegan in Uchiha Madara, they could collect the tailed beasts and resurrect Uchiha Madara.

It’s not easy, but at least it’s not a big problem.

But the appearance of Namikaze Mirai disrupted all his plans!

This guy who almost appeared out of nowhere was extremely strong and Nagato fell into his hands many times.

Obito was also suffering from the Namikaze Future Fear Syndrome because he created the Nine-Tails Night and killed his brother and sister-in-law!
Every time I see Namikaze Mirai, I wish I could hide in the Kamui Space immediately.

Black Zetsu still remembered the last battle in the Land of Rain clearly. With the dual Kamuys, Obito activated Susanoo and fled without even looking back, fearing that he would be caught up by Namikaze Mirai.

If Obito, who possesses the double Kamui, is determined to kill Namikaze Mirai.

There may be a chance!

Unfortunately, he couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart.

Black Zetsu shook his head secretly.

Obito looked down at the plain below the cliff with his crimson Sharingan.

"This time, let Konoha be completely destroyed!"

……

The news that the four major countries were joining forces to launch a war against Konoha finally reached Konoha.

The pre-war preparations, recruitment of personnel, and preparation of supplies caused a lot of commotion, especially since the scale of this war far exceeded any previous war in the ninja world.

It covers almost all of the five major countries, and neutral countries like the Iron Country and other small countries are also involved. It is impossible to hide it from Konoha's intelligence agency and not leak any information.

Hokage Building meeting room.

A meeting before the war is being held in a tense manner.

The atmosphere in the conference room was heavy and exuded a depressing vibe.

The Konoha executives sitting around the conference table were all silent, with frowns on their faces.

The sudden outbreak of war caught them off guard, especially now that Namikaze Mirai was not in the village.

The enemy is very powerful, led by the three major countries and the Iron Kingdom, as well as other small countries that follow them.

It is no exaggeration to say that most of the ninja world participated in the attack on Konoha.

If Bofeng was not there, they would naturally not be afraid.

Namikaze Mirai is like the backbone of Konoha, a god of war. No matter how powerful the enemy is, as long as he is there, nothing will be a problem.

But this time, Namikaze is not here.

No one knows where he went.

Konoha, there has been no news about Namikaze Mirai for a long time.

"Everyone, what are your plans for this war?"

The speaker was the Uchiha clan leader Uchiha Fugaku. He had a close relationship with Namikaze Mirai and became Namikaze Mirai's ally when Namikaze Mirai just returned to the village.

If we have to find a leader at the current conference table, it can only be him.

His solemn gaze swept across the conference table. Everyone whose eyes were on him had a heavy expression on their faces and said nothing.

The current situation is urgent and the opponents include most of the ninja world. Facing such a critical moment, taking the initiative to speak up means taking the initiative to take responsibility.

Silence is their way of coping.

It is also the oppression of the current urgent situation.

Faced with this scene, Uchiha Fugaku shook his head secretly and sighed in his heart.

He is not Namikaze Mirai after all.

Konoha losing Namikaze's future is like losing its spiritual support.

If he wants to take on the responsibility of Konoha when Namikaze Mirai is away, he is obviously not strong enough.

Fugaku has a headache.

Faced with such a tricky situation, what should we do?

Just when the meeting room reached a stalemate, a dull sound was suddenly heard, and the door of the meeting room slowly opened to both sides.

The silent senior executives at the conference table subconsciously looked towards the open door.

His eyes were focused on the figure outside the door, his pupils suddenly trembled, and his heart seemed to be touched, surging with warm emotions.

"Master Orochimaru!"

"It's Orochimaru!"

"Great! Lord Orochimaru is here!"

Orochimaru had light golden vertical pupils with a faint smile on his face. He was wearing a white robe and haori, with his long hair tied behind his shoulders. A gentle, infectious and magnetic voice rang out.

"Everyone, don't worry, Future will return to Konoha soon."

"While he's away, I will be the commander of this battle for now!"

The depressing atmosphere in the conference room was swept away, warm emotions exploded in the room, and excited and enthusiastic responses echoed endlessly.

"Great! With Lord Orochimaru here, we have nothing to fear no matter who the enemy is!"

"Konoha will win this battle!"

"Konoha must win! Konoha must win!!"

Orochimaru watched the scene with a smile, standing amid the cheers of the Konoha ninjas.

In the future, if you are not here, I will be the one to protect the village.

Uchiha Fugaku at the conference table shook his head and chuckled at himself. Compared with Orochimaru, he was still too immature.

Whether it's his relationship with Namikaze Mirai or his reputation in the village, there's almost no one in Konoha who can compare to him.

This man with a gentle appearance and a warm and warm personality often stays in the research laboratory and rarely appears in public.

But everyone knows his importance in Konoha.

There is a saying about Konoha circulating in other ninja villages:

The heyday of Konoha is inseparable from two people, Namikaze Mirai in the light and Orochimaru in the dark.

Orochimaru is the indispensable pillar behind Namikaze's future.

……

The daimyo of the Grass Country packed his things overnight and stuffed the carriage with several large packages full of jewelry and gold.

"Daimyo-sama, are we really going to abandon the palace and run away?"

The servant stared in amazement at the Daimyo of the Land of the Grass, who was sweating profusely as he struggled to stuff the package into the carriage.

Although the Daimyo Prefecture of Grass Country is not as luxurious as the Daimyo Prefectures of the Five Major Countries, it is still considered the most luxurious among all the small countries!
What was wrong with Daming that he wanted to abandon Daming Mansion and flee?

"Idiot! Haven't you heard the rumors recently? There's going to be a war, and the four major countries are joining forces to fight against Konoha. If you don't escape now, when will you escape?" Every time a war breaks out, the Grass Kingdom suffers the most.

Due to its special geographical location, it was forced to become a buffer zone between major powers.

This war was even more intense and its scale far exceeded any previous one. Before it broke out, a large number of rumors had already spread in the ninja world.

Wiping the greasy sweat stains from his forehead with the gorgeous brocade cuffs, looking at the carriage filled to the brim with treasures, the fat pig-like Daimyo of the Land of Grass forced a smile on his face.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to pack up his things overnight.

With the property in this carriage, he could buy a piece of land near the sea and marry a group of concubines, and then the rest of his life would be settled.

This is such a shameless name, whoever wants to be it can take it!

Ever since Konoha killed the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and established a new political system, the position of Daimyo has become a hot potato.

Not only did he worry about being beheaded by his own ninja village every day, but he would also be frightened from time to time on TV when he saw the latest daimyo being hanged on a telephone pole or beheaded by his subordinates using a guillotine as a warning to others.

These days of anxiety are finally coming to an end.

The Daimyo of the Land of Grass moved his bloated body and climbed into the carriage with difficulty, feeling the beauty of being wrapped in money.

"lets go!"

he urged.

Before the carriage started moving, a servant came running over in panic, tumbling and crawling.

"Oh no! Lord Daimyo, the troops from the four great nations have arrived in the Land of Grass!"

"what?"

The smile on the face of the Daimyo of the Grass Country froze, as if he was a sculpture frozen on the carriage.

……

On the plains of the Land of Grass, the usually quiet surface suddenly began to tremble slightly. The tremor gradually grew larger and turned into a ninja army that stretched as far as the eye could see.

It’s so majestic and powerful!

This ninja unit is not from a single ninja village, but covers several large ninja villages and is well-equipped.

At the front of the troops, there were a large number of samurai, wearing heavy armor, with samurai swords on their waists, and marching in unison.

A sneer appeared in the eyes of Ai, who was in the lead.

This four-nation alliance force includes the armies of four major countries and several vassal small countries, with a total number of more than 100,000 people!
It is definitely the largest ninja unit in the history of the ninja world!
How can Konoha stop it?
What to use to stop it?
In this battle, the advantage is mine!!!
Ōnoki, standing at the front of the Iwagakure troops, glanced around.

The joint forces arrived at the Land of Grass, and up to now, no scouts from the Hidden Grass Village have come near to investigate.

As a fence-sitter, the Kusagakure Village does have a certain talent in terms of vision.

After discovering that the troops were numerous, did they simply give up on the plan of exploration and not even get close?
Ohnoki could imagine the panic and fear on the faces of the Kusagakure ninjas when they learned that the joint forces had arrived in the Land of Grass.

There were more than 100,000 ninjas, and a war broke out with Konoha.

After this battle, the state of the Grass Country must be extremely tragic, and it is unknown whether the Grass Village can survive in the Grass Country.

But that wasn't something Ōnoki had to think about.

He has only one goal.

Destroy Konoha!

The large army marched straight towards Konoha.

At the same time, on the other side, at the border that the Grass Country must pass through to enter the Fire Country, Konoha's troops were already waiting there.

It is simply unrealistic for a large ninja coalition to conceal their whereabouts.

Soon after they set out, they were discovered by Konoha and made preparations for response in advance.

It is for this reason that Ōnoki, Ai and others did not intend to cover up the troops' route.

What they rely on is the terrifying numerical advantage of the Ninja Alliance.

Relying on the fact that the number of ninjas far exceeds that of Konoha, they seized the initiative at the beginning of the war, crushed them with numbers, pushed forward all the way, and defeated Konoha with overwhelming force!

A ninja army of 100,000 people.

This is definitely the largest troop in the history of the ninja world!

In addition to the advantage in numbers, strong people such as the Raikage Ai, the Tsuchikage Ōnoki, and the Mizukage Yagura should not be underestimated.

Now that Namikaze Mirai is no longer in Konoha, he is definitely a huge threat to them.

The Konoha troops looked solemn, ready to go, staring at the Grass Country plains in the distance.

Among all the people, only Orochimaru had a calm expression. Not only was he not nervous at all, but there was even a hint of anticipation in his golden vertical pupils.

The other Konoha members may not be clear about this, but he knows it very well.

Konoha's strength is not what it appears on the surface.

After years of development by the Research Department, the terrifying technological force has been armed to the teeth, and even has mechas, super weapons that are beyond the ninja's cognition!

Modern ninja wars are no longer wars where one can gain an advantage by relying on numbers.

This will be a showdown between science and ninjutsu!

The battle between the new era and the old era!

"Oh? Have we entered the attack range?"

Listening to the enemy's position report coming from the headphones, Orochimaru stood on a high place and looked in the direction of the enemy, giving the order to open fire!

Several kilometers away, the ninja coalition that was heading towards the Land of Fire had no idea what was waiting for them ahead.

"Lord Raikage, based on our current speed, we will be able to reach the Land of Fire in half an hour."

"very good!"

Ai seemed to smell the fragrance of the soil of the Land of Fire, and the bloody scent of the wailing Konoha ninjas half an hour later.

His eyes twisted into a ball, and indescribable malice mixed with sneer rose from his eyes.

The hatred of the Hidden Cloud Village!

The humiliation that the Hidden Cloud Village has suffered in recent years, and the humiliation he has suffered!

Today, Konoha will pay back tenfold! A hundredfold!
next second!
The smile in Ai's eyes froze, a bone-chilling chill erupted from behind him, as if his entire body had fallen into an ice cave, his pupils trembled!!!
In the air!

Hundreds of densely packed missiles are coming like raindrops!
"Enemy attack!!!"

Ai let out a heart-wrenching roar.

Boom! !

His roar was swallowed up by the flames of the explosion. As the ground shook violently, the blazing flames brutally tore apart the flesh of the ninja coalition before they had time to react.

The flames of the explosion exploded among the joint forces like a series of firecrackers.

In an instant, screams, wails, and explosions echoed throughout the battlefield.

The ninja coalition, which was full of confidence and ready to completely destroy Konoha a second ago, was thrown to the ground by the continuous fire bombardment, with only fear in their hearts.

"Quick! Earth escape defense!!!"

The leader, Ōnoki, formed seals while roaring, slapped the ground with his palms, and his eyeballs bulged with bloodshot.

A huge, towering earth wall rose from the ground, stretching across the front of the troops.

Some of the panicked Rock Ninjas also reacted, forming seals and slapping the ground, releasing earth escape techniques for defense.

Before they could even catch their breath, they saw that the earth escape defense that they had placed high hopes on was easily destroyed by the explosion like paper, and the body of the Rock Ninja hiding behind the bunker was torn to pieces, with flesh and blood flying everywhere!
"Asshole!!!"

Oonoki's eyes turned red for a moment!
These Iwagakure ninjas are the elite of the Iwagakure Village. They haven't even seen the Konoha troops, and they have already suffered so many casualties!
Ai on the other side is in worse condition than him!
In order to take revenge on Konoha as quickly as possible, his Cloud Ninja troops have always been at the forefront of the battlefield.

In the first round of artillery fire, the Cloud Ninjas suffered the heaviest losses!
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, the battlefield was in a mess, and all you could see were the remains of the Cloud Ninjas.

The Ninja Alliance was filled with horror!
Ahead is hell!!!
