"Sunagakure Village was not only attacked by the Akatsuki organization."
"The Kazekage Rasa was severely injured, and the jinchūriki in the village were also kidnapped by the Akatsuki organization."
"Do you expect Sunagakure Village to support you?"
"They have too much time to take care of themselves right now."
Zephyr told everything about Sand Hidden Village.
Although he wanted to take over the Kingdom of Thunder and start his plan to unify the ninja world.
But he's not a natural-born killer.
If you can defeat others without fighting, that would be the best thing.
Otherwise, there is no need for him to come to the Kingdom of Iron to conduct so-called negotiations with the great name Yourelu and the elder Baiyun.
Directly ordered Uchiha Kiyoshi to launch a blitzkrieg against the Kingdom of Thunder.
It would be nice to take down the Kingdom of Thunder in one move before they set up defenses.
Based on this relationship, Hefeng still hopes that Yourelu and Baiyun can understand the overall situation.
Surrender to Konoha.
Hand over the military power of the Kingdom of Thunder.
And after he told the story of the trouble in Sand Hidden Village, a black line appeared on the foreheads of Yourelu and Baiyun.
They looked at Zefeng with livid faces.
Of course, they currently don't know about the existence of the Akatsuki organization.
And there is no way to verify whether Zefeng's words are true.
However, they also knew very well that since they sent a request for help to Sunagakure Village, they have never received a response from Sunagakure Village.
Actually...
It wasn't just Sunagakure Village that didn't respond to them.
Even some ninja villages such as Amegakure Village and Kirigakure Village have not responded to messages.
As time goes by.
To say how much confidence they really have in their hearts is a fantasy.
Even the toughness shown by Elder Baiyun was just a manifestation of numbing his heart time and time again.
Following Zefeng's words.
His courage was like a hot air balloon being punctured.
The scene fell silent again.
Hefeng didn't say much, and looked at the two of them casually, letting them digest his revelations.
"Let's not say that you are completely bluffing..."
Baiyun rolled his throat and mustered up the courage to break the silence of the scene. He looked directly at Zefeng and continued: "Even if Sunagakure Village is really what you said."
"We were attacked by the Akatsuki organization."
"so what?"
"Even if there is no Sunagakure Village, Ninja Village still has Iwagakure Village, Kirigakure Village, Kusagakure Village, and Takigakure Village."
"Once you let them know Konoha's ambitions, they will definitely not let you succeed."
Bai Yun pressed one hand on the table.
In his opinion, the relationship between the Kingdom of Thunder and other major countries in the ninja world is like lips and teeth.
If the outermost lip is dealt with, the teeth inside will not fare well either.
No one wants Konoha, which has the strongest overall strength and the most resources, to become a behemoth.
even……
When emphasizing this matter, Elder Baiyun specifically looked at Mifune.
He didn't hesitate to drag him in as the middleman.
"Admiral Mifune."
"I know that your Iron Kingdom has received many benefits from Konoha over the years."
"But Zefeng did this just to paralyze you."
"When he takes care of the remaining four of the five great ninja villages, do you think he won't take action against your Iron Kingdom?"
Baiyun paused and said, "Don't forget, Mifune."
"The reason why the Iron Country can become the only neutral country in the ninja world and is not affected by the war is because the five major ninja villages can check and balance each other."
"If the balance is disturbed, do you think you can stay out of it as before?"
"Innocent."
The more he continued to speak, the richer Baiyun's tone became.
The implication is that he is trying to win over Mifune.
I hope he can join the Kingdom of Thunder's camp, help the Kingdom of Thunder, and deal with Konoha together.
"Mifune!"
Seeing that Mifune didn't say anything on the spot, Baiyun slapped the table hard and even raised the volume a few points.
In fact, although Mifune maintained a neutral attitude in the ninja world, he was not a naive guy.
Not to mention that in the past six years, in order to promote trade between Konoha and the Iron Country, he had dealt with Zephyr a lot.
What kind of person is He Feng and what kind of ambitions does he have.
There is no need for white clouds or black soil to remind myself.
"Elder Baiyun, I understand what you want to say."
"But that was the agreement back then. We, the Iron Kingdom, have always maintained a neutral attitude and will not participate in any war."
"We will not support either side."
Mifune responded righteously to Baiyun.
No matter how beautifully Bai Yun said it, it was just words without any basis.
Once you join the war, you are no longer a neutral country.
They will no longer enjoy the treatment that a neutral country deserves.
Even if he helped the Kingdom of Thunder and crushed Zefeng's ambition this time.
The neutrality agreement will also be reduced to a piece of waste paper.
When Konoha takes action against the Kingdom of Iron again, will the Kingdom of Thunder send more troops?
Will other ninja villages have more members?
Maybe will……
Maybe not...
But regardless of that possibility, the trade between himself and Konoha will be completely interrupted.
He and his Iron Kingdom people will return to their past living standards again.
Heavy snow closed the mountains.
Not suitable for farming.
Lack of fruits, fresh vegetables.
People, once they see the light, they don’t want to go back to living in darkness.
"So, we, the neutral Congress, will continue to remain neutral."
Mifune said this while looking at Zefeng.
Not to refute Baiyun.
But to express his position to Zefeng.
"you!"
It has to be said that as soon as Mifune finished speaking, Baiyun's face became as pale as paper, and he seemed to have aged five years again.
He pointed at Mifune with his finger, and just as he was about to say something, he felt a twinge in his chest.
His pale face gradually turned ferocious.
When such a scene appeared, it was Hefeng who took the initiative to ask Bai Yun if he was okay.
Do you need a medical ninja?
However, this good intention was rejected by Bai Yun.
He shook his head vigorously, more beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"unnecessary."
Every word he spoke was sonorous and powerful.
"Mifune, Mifune, you are still too naive. Do you think Konoha won't take action against you?"
"Now that the five major ninja villages coexist, he may still be afraid of you."
"But once he lost the protection of other ninja villages, why would he still be afraid of you?"
Baiyun couldn't help but question Mifune.
Why doesn't he understand such a simple truth?
"well."
Seeing Bai Yun still unable to let go, Mifune shook his head helplessly.
"Except for the relationship regarding the neutrality agreement."
"Actually, there is one more thing..."
"Do you remember the Second Ninja War?"
Mifune looked at Baiyun and Yurelu and recounted the past.
Although the Iron Kingdom claims to be a neutral country, it has not always remained neutral.
At least during the Second Ninja War, he led samurai to fight in the Hidden Rain Village.
"At that time, I encountered Sanshouyu Hanzo."
As a famous strong man during the Second Ninja War.
A samurai of his own level is naturally no match for Sansho Hanzo.
In that confrontation, not only did all his companions die.
Died at the hands of Hanzo.
Even he himself was poisoned by the sansho fish.
Certain death.
However, his tenacity moved Shanjiaoyu and asked him to leave the antidote.
"Hanzo said to me at that time that he wanted to create a peaceful world without war."
"His words infected me, and that's why the neutral Iron Kingdom appeared."
"Although Hanzo did not realize his ideal, he is no longer in this world..."
"Judging from the final result, Hanzo should be regarded as an out-and-out loser."
"The peaceful world without war that Hanzo said was once forgotten deep in my heart."
"But not until I saw Zephyr."
"After seeing his spirit, I got it."
"Hanzo the Sansho Fish may be a complete failure."
"But in this world, there are still people who want to pursue the answers they haven't gotten."
Hanzo paused for a moment, secreting some saliva from his mouth to moisten his throat.
Then he continued.
"The First Hokage, who once held the title of God of Ninja, signed a peace agreement here with the First Kage of each village."
"In order to balance the strength between the various villages, he even sealed away all the captured tailed beasts."
"However, that peace ended with the death of the First Hokage."
"After his death, each village did not fear each other's tailed beasts, and the first ninja war began."
"Since then, wars in the ninja world have broken out no less than a hundred times, large and small."
"To this day, countless predecessors want to find the answer and bring true peace to the world, but no one has succeeded."
"And the methods they use are also different."
When he said this, Mifune gave Zefeng a meaningful look.
A long-lost smile appeared on his face.
"So you ask me why I don't support you?"
"The reason is simple."
"Because I also want to see what a peaceful world without war looks like."
"People put aside their hatred towards each other and shake hands to make peace."
"Be honest and honest with each other."
"I also want to see that kind of world."
"And Zephyr's dream of unifying the ninja world might really bring peace."
Mifune said seriously.
Now, it wasn't just Baiyun and Yourelu who thought Mifune was crazy.
Even Ze Feng was taken aback by his somewhat impassioned speech.
Unexpectedly, in Mifune's heart, he would view himself this way.
"I originally thought that the three ships were just forced by my strength, so they obeyed my words, but now it seems..."
"The structure of Mifune is far bigger than I imagined."
Hefeng couldn't help but think to himself.
Compared with other countries in the ninja world, the Iron Country is undoubtedly a backward and poor country.
But it was General Mifune of the Iron Kingdom who was the first to accept the concept of unifying the shinobi world.
It was really beyond Zefeng's expectation.
At the same time, this also made him more determined.
No one is trying to stop his determination to unify the ninja world!
"madman!"
However, at this moment, Yurelu, the great name of the Land of Thunder, suddenly jumped up from his chair.
He looked at Mifune angrily and called him a madman.
Because according to Japanese logic, once the ninja world is unified by him, all countries will be reduced to cities.
"On the other hand, your Iron Country will become an Iron City, and you will no longer be a general. Can you accept this?"
Yurelu asked without thinking.
Anyway, as a daimyo, he couldn't accept a future where he was no longer a daimyo.
But who knows...
Confront yourself with loud questioning in person.
Mifune just raised the corners of his mouth lightly, and then showed a long-lost smile.
"If that kind of future can really happen, what does it matter whether I am a general or not?"
"Rather than my own status, I would rather take a look at the world described by the Fifth Hokage."
Mifune and Daimyo Yurelu looked at each other.
There was even a hint of pride in his tone.
"The name of the Land of Thunder, and the elders of Yunyin Village."
"Don't you all want my attitude?"
"This is my attitude."
"I trust the Godaime Hokage-sama."
Mifune's voice was not loud, but every word was sonorous and powerful.
Especially the words "believe in the Fifth Hokage" made Daimyo Yurelu feel like a bolt from the blue.
His brain suddenly buzzed, and his body that stood up straight became limp and weak, and he sat down on the chair with a plop.
crazy.
Mifune of the Iron Kingdom is absolutely crazy!
He must have been brainwashed by Zephyr!
That’s why you say such unrealistic things!
Yourelu couldn't help complaining in his heart.
But all he can do now is complain in his heart.
"Thank you, Mifune-san."
Seeing that the daimyo Yurelu and the elder Baiyun were like deflated hot air balloons, Zephyr slowly expressed his gratitude to Mifune.
"Although many unpleasant things happened between us in Konoha and Kumogakure."
"But please believe that I have no personal grudges against the Kingdom of Thunder."
"I just want real peace in this world."
"At that time, both the visible and invisible places of the Kingdom of Thunder will become a country."
"There is no longer a profession like ninja in this world."
"Everyone is equal and there is no war."
"For this reason, I hope you can put aside your personal prejudices against me and surrender to Konoha unconditionally."
Hefeng took a deep breath and continued to emphasize, "You can understand that this was inspired by what Mr. Mifune said."
"It can also be understood as this being a final warning."
As he spoke, Zefeng leaned forward slightly, put one hand on the phone bug, and directly contacted Uchiha Kiyoshi.
that's all……
In front of Mifune, Baiyun, and Yurelu, Zefeng and Konoha's front-line ninja commanders successfully made contact.
In order for the three of them to understand what they had done.
Zefeng deliberately turned around the phone bug that was facing him.
Being able to let others see the changes in the phone bug.
I saw that the Konoha Jounin uniform transformed out of thin air on this phone bug.
On its forehead, a forehead protector with only the Konoha logo appeared.
After seeing the changes in the phone bug, Yourelu and Baiyun's expressions became nervous.
soon……
The call was successfully connected.
The phone bug began to imitate Uchiha Qing's voice and greeted Zefeng.
"Lord the Fifth Hokage."
"I am the frontline combat commander, Uchiha Kiyoshi."
Although Hefeng had not told Qing anything beforehand, he relied on the keen sense of smell developed by following Hefeng.
He guessed what would happen after Zephyr arrived in the Iron Country.
Therefore, Uchiha Kiyoshi reported to Zefeng directly in front of Yourelu and others.
All Konoha ninja troops have arrived at the border of the Kingdom of Thunder.
And thanks to communication tools like the phone bug.
Even if they are thousands of meters apart, they can get in touch in time.
It only took less than a day for them to figure out the border situation of the Kingdom of Thunder.
And reported them one by one to Zefeng.
And every time Uchiha Kiyoshi correctly told the location of the ninjas of Kumogakure Village, Shiro Yurelu's eyebrows would wrinkle together unnaturally.
Very ugly.
Because there is only one reason why Uchiha Kiyoshi can accurately tell the location of those ninjas...
That means everything Zefeng said is true.
Konoha has indeed reached the border of the Land of Thunder.
The phone bug in his hand was not a bluff either.
It is indeed possible to get in touch with others.
As a ninja, Baiyun knew even more clearly...
Competitions between ninjas are often also intelligence competitions.
Whoever can grasp the information can take the initiative.
"It's over..."
Bai Yun rolled his throat and swallowed nervously.
In his opinion, once the war begins, Konoha ninjas will quickly break through the defenses of Kumogakure Village.
Entering the Kingdom of Thunder.
But now, no other ninja village has responded to his request for support.
Once the defense line is torn.
With the current combat power of Kumogakure Village, I am afraid that there is no way to stop Konoha's ninja troops.
Most of them will go straight in.
It is not impossible to completely occupy Yunyin Village.
The huge Kingdom of Thunder was really forced into a desperate situation.
"Lord the Fifth Hokage."
"As long as you give the order, I can lead people right now to rush into the Kingdom of Thunder."
The phone bug once again imitated Uchiha Kiyoshi's voice and tone.
There is quite an aura that Loulan will never return until he is broken.
And these words also made Yourelu and Baiyun tremble.
His eyes involuntarily moved from the phone bug to Ze Feng's eyes.
Six eyes facing each other.
Unprecedented pressure suddenly fell on the shoulders of Yourelu and Baiyun.
It seems that all they need is a word.
The Kingdom of Thunder will have two completely different destinies.
However, Zefeng did not give a direct order asking Uchiha Kiyoshi to launch an attack.
He studied the two people in front of him.
asked with a smile.
"What's your answer?"
Zephyr ignored Uchiha Kiyoshi's request and kicked the ball directly to the feet of Yurelu and Baiyun.
Uchiha Kiyoshi, who was at the border of the Land of Thunder, suddenly understood.
He simply remained silent, waiting for Yourelu and Baiyun's answers.
Because Konoha has declared war on the Kingdom of Thunder.
The most direct attack order was issued in front of the daimyo and elders.
It's not despicable in any way.
Moreover, because the Kingdom of Thunder does not have communication methods like telephone bugs.
Even if they learned about this matter, they would not be able to pass the information to the Kingdom of Thunder at this time.
Let them counter-encircle Uchiha Kiyoshi's ninja troops.
At this point, Bai Yun once again understood what a competition in intelligence was.
Even before this war started, they had already completely lost.
No……
Perhaps from the beginning, they had no chance of winning.
Bai Yun slumped on the chair like a puddle of mud, his eyes dim.
It has long lost its previous vigor.
Yourelu stared at Zefeng blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
No……
This is no longer as simple as not knowing what to say.
It was the unprecedented pressure that made him lose his ability to speak.
Even Admiral Mifune couldn't help but focus on the little phone bug.
I was quite shocked.
Just relying on such a large snail can accurately issue attack orders.
Konoha's technology is really scary.
but……
This also made Mifune feel more confident.
If there is anyone in the ninja world who can unify all countries, then this person will undoubtedly be the Fifth Hokage of Konoha.
Uchiha and Kazuki.
Hefeng sat on the chair and waited quietly for a while before he asked slowly, "Where's the answer?"
"Is it an unconditional surrender or a formal confrontation?"
However, although Zefeng used the word formal confrontation.
But this is not a real formal confrontation at all.
Even according to his assumptions, if Uchiha Qing was completely defenseless in the Kingdom of Thunder.
Once a gap is torn open in the border, Konoha's ninja troops will march straight in.
It may not even take a day at the earliest.
We can completely capture Yunyin Village.
After all, Uchiha Kiyoshi is also a master who can use Susanoo.
They are also those with the ability to grow fruit, the lush people.
"ten……"
Seeing that the two of them didn't answer their thoughts, Ze Feng had no choice but to count down.
Pressure was exerted on both.
"Nine……"
"eight……"
Even an outsider like Mifune could feel the oppression of this room at this time.
Hefeng's actions really showed the word "strength" to the fullest.
He even felt lucky in his heart.
When Zephyr wanted to establish trade with the Iron Country, he chose to cooperate.
Otherwise, my situation might not be much better than the two of them.
Yes.
At this moment, Mifune couldn't help but feel sympathy for Yurelu and Baiyun, the pair of daimyo and elders.
"three……"
Baiyun looked at the daimyo.
Under such great pressure, he couldn't make up his mind at all.
No……
Perhaps he already had an idea in his mind.
He believed that the Kingdom of Thunder would never win this war.
However, he didn't want to take the blame.
Speak to Zephyr of unconditional surrender.
He can't do it.
Whether it is the dignity of being a ninja or the pride of being the elder of Kumogakure Village.
He couldn't even say such a thing.
Not to mention, in front of Hefeng, a brat in his early twenties.
He looked at the daimyo, in fact, just to make the daimyo say surrender.
His psychological defense was blocked by Zefeng...
Completely defeated.
The great name Yourelu rolled his throat and swallowed nervously.
Surrender?
Yourelu shook his head crazily in his heart.
"Maybe Zephyr is just bluffing, maybe this is all his trick."
"This phone bug may just be his transformation technique."
"Or maybe I was under an illusion from the beginning..."
For a moment, the daimyo's brain began to think wildly.
Zefeng, on the other hand, spit out the last number cleanly.
"one."
