Chapter 134 One Against Five, Konoha Drained Dry
Iwagakure has joined the war!
Before Kato Dan and Namikaze Minato even reached the northern border base, the news had already reached the village and spread throughout the entire ninja world during the day.
The common people of all the countries in the Ninja Continent were plunged into panic.
Even the lords and nobles of several major powers felt that their military bases seemed to have slipped out of their control.
Because this war came too suddenly and too quickly.
This is not as simple as various countries joining forces to destroy the small island nation of the Land of Whirlpools; they are simultaneously declaring war on the Land of Fire, the strongest nation.
Both the First and Second Shinobi World Wars had their foreshadowing. In the first meeting of the former, the Five Kage clearly told Hashirama Senju that peace was only for the duration of his life.
With the death of Hashirama Senju, the Fourth Shinobi World War immediately broke out.
The Second Shinobi World War was similar. Before Hanzo of the Salamander declared war on the Land of Fire, he deliberately attacked the Land of Wind, which was the weakest in terms of overall strength, to assess the gap between the Land of Rain and the major powers, and then it gradually evolved into a four-way war.
Now, without any prior warning, the three major powers have directly attacked the three major border bases of the Fire Country in the east, west, and north.
The war involving three major powers was the Ninja World War.
This means that after this war ends, it will also be called the Third Shinobi World War.
The Third Shinobi World War began with a chaotic battle between the four great nations, a scale almost comparable to the First Shinobi World War.
Anyone with a modicum of education who could understand the situation in the ninja world realized that an unprecedented storm was about to sweep across the entire ninja world.
This war may change the entire ninja world's situation.
The news reached the Hidden Cloud Village at an extremely fast pace.
"Father, do you think these major ninja villages are bypassing us and joining forces?"
The future Fourth Raikage, who has not yet inherited the title of "A," looked at the Third Raikage, who was shirtless and only wearing a Raikage's robe, and asked with a furrowed brow.
The Third Raikage frowned as he looked at the intelligence report in his hand, unable to understand why these three great ninja villages had suddenly attacked Konoha overnight.
Did they meet secretly in private, or communicate using chakra television?
Then why not play with him?
Although the Third Raikage was all muscle, he was not incapable of using his brain.
He quickly found something amiss in the intelligence report.
His eyes immediately showed solemnity and apprehension, and he said in a deep voice, "Perhaps the three great powers are not as apprehensive as they appear when they besiege the Fire Kingdom. There may be other forces operating in secret."
Ai Wei was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Because of—the order."
The Third Raikage offered his speculation: "This kind of orderly attack couldn't have been something we just followed up on as soon as we saw the enemy attacking; it must have been premeditated."
"Such an alliance needs a powerful leader, and that leader must set an example first. Otherwise, what if the weakest country attacks the Land of Fire, and the other two countries don't follow suit?"
"It's not that I look down on the Land of Water, which is far from the ninja continent, and the current Mizukage, but the Five Kage of this era are indeed all people who can't get past Onoki."
"Logically speaking, if this alliance truly exists, then Onoki should be the leader, and the first to attack the Land of Fire should be Iwagakure in the Land of Earth."
"But ironically, the Land of Earth was the third to make a move. This cowardly behavior is unbecoming of someone who is a leader. This is very strange."
Ai, who also had some political acumen, immediately changed his expression and said, "Father, do you mean—behind these three countries, there is another force, or a mysterious person of unfathomable power, whose influence even Onoki needs to listen to?"
"The possibility is not small."
The Third Raikage said confidently, "If I'm right, this mysterious person will probably come looking for us soon and invite us to join this war."
However, three days later, not a single outsider came looking for the Third Raikage.
This is awkward.
Ai, who had been watching the battlefield closely for the past few days, finally couldn't help but ask, "Dad, could it be that you've guessed wrong?"
The matter is actually quite simple: Onoki ordered Kirigakure and Sunagakure to make the first move, and then he led Iwagakure to follow.
boom!
As soon as Ai finished speaking, he flew out of the Raikage's office.
The Third Raikage's already dark face darkened further, and he coldly snorted, "My guess is absolutely correct. Either that mysterious person is afraid of me, or they look down on me."
"Since that's the case, then I'll personally get involved and stir things up even more."
While saying this, the Third Raikage was actually very shrewd.
After this battle ends, it will surely be known in the ninja world as the Third Shinobi World War. The opening was a multi-national war, and Konoha's national strength was divided into three major and one minor forces to guard the four borders.
Each border base has only two or three elite combatants as commanders.
The force, divided into four parts, is far inferior to that of other major powers.
This resulted in Konoha, which could have easily overwhelmed other major powers, being forced into a passive defensive posture and unable to launch proactive attacks.
This is the best opportunity.
Once Kumogakure joins in, secretly assisting Iwagakure in attacking the northern border base, or helping Iwagakure divide up half of the troops at the northern border base, perhaps in just a few days, the two great powers will be able to breach the northern border of the Land of Fire.
Moreover, the fighting these past few days has also allowed a message to quietly spread.
That is—Konoha's space-time ninja has gone missing!
Gojo Yoru went to the Spirit World to train in Sage Mode and will not be able to return for some time.
During this time, even Orochimaru, his teacher, was unable to contact him.
This is undoubtedly the best opportunity!
If we can join forces to destroy Konoha before Gojo Yoru returns, just like we destroyed Uzushiogakure in a single day.
Even if Gojo Yoru returns, they will have other major powers helping to draw hatred away, so the other side may not be able to assassinate them.
After all, Gojo Yoru's chakra level is only at the ace level, which is no secret in the ninja world.
With such a low chakra level even as an adult, Gojo Yoru is destined to only have the ability to instantly kill, like Onoki, but with a very short lifespan, and will never be able to develop a super-wide-range ultimate technique.
His strength surpasses that of the Five Kage, and he is even more formidable than Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, yet he lacks the strategic deterrent power of Hanzo of the Salamander or Hashirama Senju.
This is precisely why various countries dared to take action!
The Third Raikage, who believed he had seen through everything, did not hesitate at all and directly mobilized troops to the northern border base of the Land of Fire to join forces with Iwagakure in a pincer attack from both sides.
As figures skilled in Lightning Release ninjutsu and taijutsu transformed into blue and white lightning bolts and instantly appeared, Yahiko watched this scene expressionlessly from a cliff on a certain mountain.
Despite the short distance, the sensory ninjas in the ninja army failed to detect Yahiko's presence.
"Yahiko, you're amazing! They really did take the initiative, just like you said."
"9
At that moment, Tobi's exclamation echoed in Yahiko's mind.
Yahiko said calmly, "Onoki taught me a lesson. We can't take the initiative against these people who are at the top of the Five Kage like we did against Kirigakure and Sunagakure."
"Onoki is alright, but he overprotected Iwagakure. Although this kept Iwagakure's military strength at the top of the ninja world, it also exposed its biggest weakness."
"If someone infiltrates Iwagakure and possesses ninjutsu with a wide range, he will be helpless."
"In order to protect the villagers, he would agree to any unreasonable demands we made."
"But the Third Raikage and Kumogakure are different—"
After a slight pause, Yahiko made no attempt to hide his disdain: "This village has been established for decades, and apart from the Gold and Silver Brothers during the First Shinobi World War, it has produced almost no rogue ninjas."
"Unlike other ninja villages, which have various factions, Kumogakure, like Iwagakure, is a place ruled by the Raikage."
"Moreover, the ninjas in this village are all martial arts practitioners skilled in ninjutsu and taijutsu, with bad tempers and brains full of muscle."
"If we use the same methods we used on Onoki to deal with the Third Raikage, he might attack us before we can even utter a single threat, and then the commotion will attract the entire Hidden Cloud Village to attack us."
"Therefore, we cannot take the initiative to find him; we can only let him discover that something is wrong, or find other ways."
Yahiko breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, those who can become the Five Kage are not reckless fools after all, otherwise it might have taken me several more days to guide them to send troops."
"You're already incredibly capable; I wouldn't have thought of that," Afei comforted him, then asked, "So what should we do next? Are we going to wait until the five great ninja villages are fighting tooth and nail before we try to reap the rewards?"
"No, we must act as soon as possible."
Yahiko calmly analyzed, "The target of Kumogakure is either the northern border of the Land of Fire or the eastern border base."
"They are skilled in ninjutsu and taijutsu, and their advantage in the forest is no less than that of the ninjas of Konoha. They are very likely to be the northern border base."
"In this way, Konoha's northern border base will have to face the siege of two major ninja villages. Even if the commander is Kato Dan, who is skilled in Yin Release assassination, and the third is the Yellow Flash who has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, they simply cannot deal with the two major ninja villages whose military strength surpasses that of Konoha and whose overall strength is only one or two levels weaker than Konoha."
"Konoha must send troops to the northern border base."
"The only high-level combat force remaining in Konoha right now, besides the Third Hokage and the heads of the major ninja clans, is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, a strategic weapon."
"Faced with this unprecedented crisis, Konoha will definitely activate this strategic weapon."
"We cannot allow the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to go to the northern border base, otherwise, with the unique abilities of the Uzumaki clan and the chakra of the strongest tailed beast, we may be locked in a stalemate for some time."
"We need to go back immediately and assist Sunagakure in attacking the western border base of the Land of Fire, forcing Konoha to send the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to the western border base," Yahiko sneered. "The First Hokage captured tailed beasts and distributed them to other ninja villages. Madara also said that Wood Release has the ability to attack tailed beasts. If Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki can already enter full tailed beast form, our Wood Release advantage will be even greater."
"If we can't fully transform into a tailed beast, both Nagato and I can handle it."
"Before Gojo Yoru returns, we will definitely be able to severely damage Konoha, or even overthrow this strongest nation."
Upon hearing this, A-Fei immediately shouted, "Then let's hurry back! A-Fei's about to explode!"
"It's up to you now, Fei."
Yahiko's attitude towards Tobi couldn't be better.
Having spent time together, he had come to understand A-Fei's personality; he was a very simple White Zetsu, completely different from those White Zetsu with mature minds.
Moreover, this White Zetsu's strength is ridiculously high.
Fortunately, his thinking was immature, otherwise Madara wouldn't have needed to train him as a protector of the Rinnegan.
Without Tobi, Yahiko's Wood Release could only deal with some Jonin at best; it would be extremely difficult to defeat even ace-level fighters.
After donning the Tobi Armor, Yahiko's already enormous chakra reserves instantly became as vast as the sea.
A single Wood Release ninjutsu can create a sea of trees, capable of crushing any human wave tactics.
In Madara's words, if he possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, he could use his exclusive eye techniques at will, and might even be able to activate the Complete Susanoo, which is known as the God of Destruction.
His strength and confidence all come from Ah Fei, so how could he not treat Ah Fei well?
After watching the ninja army of Kumogakure disappear, Yahiko used the Mayfly Technique to sink into the ground and travel at high speed back to Amegakure.
The following day, the situation of the four major powers fighting each other took another sudden turn.
First, the ninja army from Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village) in the Land of Lightning suddenly attacked the northern border of the Land of Fire.
Before Konoha could send reinforcements, bad news spread throughout the entire battlefield in an instant.
Then came Yahiko, the disciple of Hanzo of the Salamander from Amegakure, who led six subordinates with different abilities but extremely powerful strength. These subordinates all possessed the same type of eye and simultaneously summoned the most poisonous salamander in the ninja world. With overwhelming force, they utterly crushed the western border of Konoha.
The powerful Sarutobi team, comprised of space-time ninjas, the Yellow Flash, and the teacher of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, were utterly powerless against them.
If Orochimaru and Jiraiya hadn't entered Sage Mode at the crucial moment and joined forces to unleash a combined sonic jutsu, they might have already captured him.
The appearance of these high-end combat forces was too sudden.
Without the slightest hesitation, Konoha immediately activated its strategic weapon, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, sending Kushina Uzumaki to the western border base to support Team Sarutobi.
Meanwhile, the clan leaders of the various ninja clans dispatched the remaining elite troops of their clans, and even sent the clan leaders themselves, to the northern border bases to support Kato Dan and Namikaze Minato.
Everyone in Konoha sensed a conspiracy.
This six-nation war, which has reached a fever pitch in just a few days, is really something wrong.
