"Uchiha and Kaze..."
Onoki whispered the name softly.
Shortly after Konoha officially declared war on the Land of Thunder, Iwagakure received a request from Kumogakure.
I hope they can send Iwa Ninja to deal with Konoha's invasion together.
However, Ohnoki is now old and has long lost the vigor he had before.
After hearing the news, he concluded that Kumogakure wanted to retain its own village's combat power and use other ninja villages as tools to resist Konoha.
On top of that, he had just recently received the news.
The Jinchuuriki of Iwagakure Village suddenly disappeared.
Compared with the troubles faced by the Kingdom of Thunder, the problems in the village are more concerning to Ohnoki.
Based on this relationship, Onoki did not send any Iwagakure to increase the number of troops in the Kingdom of Thunder.
And to take a step back, in Ohnoki's knowledge, all the people in the Kingdom of Thunder are martial arts, and it is one of the five major countries.
In addition, the terrain of the Kingdom of Thunder is complex.
As long as you make good use of this, you can at least repel the Konoha ninja.
When the situation really becomes critical, it will be too late for him to send Iwa Ninja to assist the Kingdom of Thunder.
However……
What Onoki never imagined was that when he heard the news about the Kingdom of Thunder again, it was the news that Yunyin Village had been completely lost!
"hiss……"
Onoki couldn't help but take a breath, stunned by the news.
In fact, it was not just Onoki, the Tsuchikage, who was shocked by this.
Huang Tu, who was waiting beside him, was also in a state of confusion.
"Can you say that again?"
Huang Tu's eyes were as wide as copper bells.
It just feels weird and unbelievable.
"It has only been a few days since Konoha officially declared war, right?"
"How could it be possible to capture Yunyin Village in such a short period of time?"
Huangtu's voice was somewhat trembling.
During the Third Ninja War, Iwagakure Village and Kumogakure Village fought the most fiercely.
Even the famous Third Raikage was slowly consumed to death by their ninjas.
Regarding how strong Yunyin Village is, Huang Tu feels that no one knows better than them.
But now...
The Kingdom of Thunder, which in my mind was extremely powerful, had completely fallen in just a few days!
Such a thing would sound like a fantasy to anyone.
The most important thing is that there is some transition time between the official declaration of war and the complete start of the war.
If we put this time aside, how long did it take for Konoha to capture Kumogakure Village?
Two days?
one day?
Or less than a day?
The more he thought about it, the more frightened Huang Tu felt in his heart.
"Master Huangtu, you can't be wrong."
Seeing that Loess couldn't believe it, Iwa Ninja, who came to deliver the information, could understand in his heart.
When he first got this information, it was like loess, and he felt unbelievable.
But this information is indeed true.
The Konoha ninjas not only captured Kumogakure Village.
Moreover, the battle loss ratio also reached quite astonishing figures.
And it’s worth mentioning…
After Uchiha Kiyoshi captured Cloud Hidden Village, he had no intention of hiding the matter.
On the contrary, he was worried that some people in the ninja world would not know that the Kingdom of Thunder had been conquered by Konoha, so he sent some ninjas to spread the news.
He just wants to let everyone in the ninja world know that Konoha has taken over the Kingdom of Thunder!
Just when Huangtu was about to say something more, Onoki, who was in an extremely shocked mood, suddenly spoke slowly.
"Indeed, it's very Uchiha style."
Loess and the Iwa ninja who were kneeling on the ground all looked up at Onoki.
I don't quite understand what he means.
Although Ohnoki has never met Uchiha and Feng, he has met another strong Uchiha.
spot!
At that time, he received the mission order and went to Konoha with the second-generation Tsuchikage Mu-sama.
I want to sign a peace agreement with the First Hokage.
As a result, he was humiliated by Uchiha Madara.
In Madara's view, the ninja world does not need any peace agreement at all.
If other ninja villages want to survive, the only way is to surrender to Konoha.
It was also at that time that he saw the terror of Uchiha.
But now, this Hokage named Zephyr obviously has the same ambition as Madara back then.
"The difference is that in Konoha back then, there were ninjas like Senju Hashirama who strongly opposed Uchiha Madara."
"I'm afraid no one can stop Zephyr in Konoha now."
Ohnoki slumped in his chair and complained secretly.
"Lord Tsuchikage..." Huang Tu's face also became nervous.
If the information is correct.
Then Konoha, who captured the Kingdom of Thunder, would not only become a behemoth in the ninja world.
After taking Yunyin Village, their next target might be Yanyin Village, Sand Hidden Village, Kirigakure Village...
"If the Hokage of Konoha really has the ambition to unify the ninja world, then we will also become his enemies."
Although Huang Tu was extremely shocked by this incident, he quickly worked his brain to calm down.
After calming down for a while, Huang Tu couldn't help but start to worry.
After taking down Konoha in the Kingdom of Thunder, will the next spearhead be aimed directly at them?
"It's not impossible..."
Onoki glanced at Huangtu and agreed with his guess.
At the same time, Onoki was worried that the disappearance of the Jinchūriki of Iwagakure Village might be related to Konoha.
"After all, except for Konoha, I can't imagine anyone else who dares to take action against the Jinchuriki of the five great ninja villages."
As he spoke, Onoki recalled.
In the past, when a local war broke out between Konoha and Kumogakure Village, Konoha snatched away the jinchūriki of Kumogakure Village.
This reduced the combat power of Yunyin Village.
Combined with the disappearance of the Jinchuuriki in Iwagakure Village.
These two things are not necessarily unrelated.
"Loess, contact Kazekage of Sand Hidden Village and Mizukage of Kirigakure Village as soon as possible."
"I think we need to join forces."
Soon, Ohnoki thought of a countermeasure.
The overall strength of Konoha, which could easily take over the Kingdom of Thunder, must have reached a rather exaggerated level.
Especially Konoha's Hokage, he is a monster among monsters.
If the power of a ninja village were to face the behemoth of Konoha, they might be defeated one by one.
Maybe this is what Zefeng wants to see.
In order to prevent such a thing from happening.
The remaining three ninja villages must stand on the same front and share the same hatred.
Only in this way can Konoha be dismantled and Uchiha and Feng's ambitions be dismantled.
"yes!"
When Huang Tu heard this, he put his hands together and buckled them on his trousers, and nodded to Onoki with a very serious expression.
Said that he would complete the task as soon as possible.
Then, Huang Tu immediately turned around and exited Tsuchikage's office.
Start working on the alliance.
****
The land of water.
Kirigakure Village.
Although Kirigakure Village is shrouded in white mist all year round and is isolated from the outside world, they are not ignorant of what is happening outside.
Not to mention, it was such a big event that Konoha declared war on the Kingdom of Thunder.
As soon as Mei Terumi, the Fifth Mizukage of Kirigakure Village, took office, he immediately organized ANBU ninjas to spy on this information as soon as he learned such news.
Although Kirigakure Village is also in a stage of recuperation, if the situation really reaches a critical stage of survival.
She still wanted to help the Kingdom of Thunder overcome this difficulty.
Because there is no land border between the Kingdom of Water and the Kingdom of Fire.
The vast sea has become a natural barrier.
But once the Kingdom of Thunder falls, the vast sea will also become a barrier to the Kingdom of Fire.
Kirigakure Village, Sand Hidden Village, and Iwagakure Village will be divided into two parts by the Fire and Thunder Kingdom as a whole.
into two parts.
If Zephyr continues to annex Sunagakure Village, Iwagakure Village will complete the unification of the entire continent.
The country of water on the sea has truly become an isolated and helpless island country.
You know, because the fog gathers all year round, sunshine is rarely seen in Kirigakure Village.
Agriculture is extremely underdeveloped.
Without the support of inland trade, their country's food production would not be able to feed everyone.
Based on these relationships, Terumi Mei judged that the relationship between the Kingdom of Water and the Kingdom of Thunder can be said to be that of lips and teeth.
Even if the village's fighting strength is weak, she cannot just watch the Kingdom of Thunder fall.
However……
She still underestimated Konoha's strength.
The ANBU ninja she sent out without waiting passed the news back to Kirigakure Village.
Yunyin Village has already fallen.
Water Shadow Building.
In Terumi Mei's office.
Except for the fog ninja who came back from delivering information.
The elder of Kirigakure Village.
There are also two assistants, Qing and Chojuro, gathered here.
When they all heard the news of the complete fall of Yunyin Village, everyone except Terumi Mei felt their brains buzzing, and then stood stunned on the spot.
As for Terumi Mei, she doesn't have a strong will.
The reason why she didn't freeze on the spot was entirely because she was sitting.
The office fell into silence for several minutes.
Everyone's heart is a little heavy.
The situation that I was most worried about and least expected to foresee happened.
"hateful!"
After a long time, Terumi Mei's voice broke the silence of the office.
Her slender fingers, as green as green, were all clenched together.
He banged his slightly immature fist on the table to vent his anger.
Chojuro on the side was frightened by such a scene.
Ao, who was Mizukage's advisor, also turned extremely pale.
To this day, he still deeply remembers that the fourth Mizukage Yagura died at the hands of Zephyr.
There was already a blood feud between them and Konoha.
Now, Konoha has successfully annexed the Kingdom of Thunder.
Territory expanded as never before.
It's nothing more than one going down and the other going up.
Maybe, Kirigakure Village will become Zefeng's next target.
"After Mizukage Yagura's death, we tried our best to find the whereabouts of the Three-Tails, but six years have passed and we still haven't investigated the whereabouts of the Three-Tails."
"Vulpix Yugao also chose to betray the village."
At this moment, the elder of Kirigakure Village couldn't help but speak.
Although Terumi Mei is the Mizukage of Kirigakure Village, the status held by the elder of Kirigakure Village is no worse than Terumi Mei.
Coupled with age.
What he said actually held more weight than Terumi Mei.
even……
Even Terumi Mei was elected as the fifth Mizukage.
It is also indispensable that he defy all opinions.
After all, throughout the entire history of the ninja world, before Terumi Mei, there had never been a woman who could become the shadow of the ninja village.
As he spoke slowly, all eyes in the office fell on him.
"Master Elder."
Terumi Mei looked deeply.
For me, who had just become Mizukage, the news of the demise of the Kingdom of Thunder was undoubtedly a huge test.
"If Konoha's next target is us, Terumi Mei, how confident are you that you can protect Kirigakure Village?"
The elder turned to look at Terumi Mei and asked seriously.
Although his words carry a lot of weight, as an elder, he has no fighting power at all.
If a fight really breaks out, we still have to count on Terumi Mei, the Mizukage.
Because whether he wants to admit it or not, Terumi Mei is currently the strongest ninja in the village.
As the elder raised such a pointed question, everyone else gathered in the office also shifted their attention and focused on Terumi Mei.
Do not know why.
There was actually some tension in their hearts.
It seems that Terumi Mei's answer will directly affect the fate of Kirigakure Village.
"Breathe, breathe..."
Terumi Mei did not answer directly, but deliberately took a deep breath.
"If Konoha dares to attack here by using the heavy fog surrounding Kirigakure Village and the assassination techniques that the Kirigakure ninjas are best at, I will definitely make sure they never come back."
"But……"
"Elder, you should still remember the information that Zabuza was taken away by the Konoha ninja some time ago, right?"
No matter how you put it, the evil deeds Zabuza committed was the assassination of the Mizukage.
Kirigakure Village has never given up its crusade against Zabuza for so many years.
It was also by chance that they got the information that Zabuza had gone to Konoha.
"At first, I didn't understand why Konoha took Zabuza away."
"But now, I seem to understand."
There was more worry in Terumi Mei's tone.
The faces of the elders and others suddenly turned pale.
Zabuza is the best ghost in the village at Kirigakure.
No one knows how to deal with the enemy in the fog better than he does.
"You are worried that Zabuza will seek refuge in Konoha..."
The elder frowned.
"It's not impossible." Terumi Mei took a deep breath, "And, since you want to regard Konoha as an enemy, you have to think about all the details."
"I even think that the disastrous defeat of the Kingdom of Thunder is because we underestimated Konoha's determination and decisiveness."
"And we in Kirigakure Village must not make the same mistake again."
"We have to prepare for the worst."
Terumi Mei said loudly.
Moreover, she didn't seem to think that she could protect the village under the worst conditions.
As soon as these words came out, there was another silence in the audience.
but……
Although Terumi Mei didn't have the confidence to protect the village on her own, she didn't have any ideas in her heart.
"So, let's form an alliance with other ninja villages!"
Terumi Mei slapped her hands on the table, and with the help of this force, her graceful body stood up from the chair with a roar.
Her eyes scanned the crowd with determination.
Expressed his idea of forming an alliance with other ninja villages.
In her opinion, since even Kirigakure Village knew about the demise of the Kingdom of Thunder.
The other Kages of Ninja Village also learned the news.
Maybe they are worried about whether they will be Konoha's next target.
"If the opponent's shadow is also a hero, he will definitely think of forming an alliance."
"As long as our three ninja villages join forces, even Konoha will not be able to do anything to us."
"even……"
"We might even be able to make Konoha fearful and evacuate the Kingdom of Thunder."
"The balance between the five major countries must not be broken!"
Mei Terumi expressed her views impassionedly.
It must be said that although she is a woman, she is thoughtful and possesses a foresight that most men do not have.
Moreover, her words are very inspiring.
Qing, who was Mizukage's consultant, was the first to respond to her.
"I understand, Mizukage-sama, I will immediately ask people to start this matter and promote the alliance of the three major ninja villages as soon as possible."
"Yes." Seeing Qing willing to volunteer, a smile appeared on Terumi Mei's face, asking him to start this matter as soon as possible.
****
Fire Nation.
Konoha Village.
The first thing Uchiha Kiyoshi did after successfully taking over Kumogakure was to report the news to the Fifth Hokage and Kaze.
The second thing he did was to talk to the top management of Konoha.
The news of the great victory was informed to the Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Not only that, but the Konoha Police Department.
Almost at the same time, I received this news.
And delivered such news to everyone through the village radio.
no doubt……
Everyone in Konoha is immersed in joy at this moment.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's home.
Although Zephyr left Konoha, he handed over the authority of the Hokage's office to Kakashi.
Based on this relationship, after learning the news, Mito Kadeni moved to Koharu and did not rush to the Hokage's office, but came to Sarutobi Hiruzen's home.
"Hiruzhan, is the news true?"
Koharu couldn't wait to ask as soon as he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Although the village radio had repeated the content three times before, she still couldn't believe it.
I hope I can get confirmation from Sarutobi Hiruzen.
At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was sitting alone on the sofa, holding his iconic pipe in his hand.
"Absolutely true."
A simple sentence affirmed the content of the broadcast.
"I really didn't expect that little brat Ze Feng to actually do it..."
As he spoke, Mito Katoyan breathed out a sigh of relief.
In fact, when Zephyr decided to declare war on the Kingdom of Thunder, he did not agree with it in his heart.
Opposition was also expressed.
Naihe and Feng are the Hokage in the village.
His opinion was not adopted.
Later, I saw Uchiha Kiyoshi taking away thousands of ninjas.
Mito Kadoyan was also worried in his heart.
If this battle is defeated.
The impact on Konoha will be huge.
But now...
All worries disappeared with victory.
A stone that had accumulated in his heart finally fell to the ground.
And through this great victory, both Koharu and Mito Kabuto's attitude towards the Japanese style has changed.
"Maybe Zephyr is really the best Hokage ever."
Xiaochun's eyes narrowed slightly and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of praise.
After all, whether it was the first Hokage, the second Hokage, or the third Kazekage or the fourth Hokage later.
No one can annex the territory of other countries.
Only gentle breeze.
Not only did he accomplish this unprecedented thing, but the territory he successfully annexed was the entire Kingdom of Thunder!
Such achievements will definitely be recorded in history.
Maybe, together with the great cause of unifying the ninja world.
Zephyr can also be done.
"but……"
However, at this moment, Mito Monoyan changed the subject.
Although it is true that Uchiha Kiyoshi successfully conquered the Kingdom of Thunder, and it is true that they were extremely happy, conquering the Kingdom of Thunder was only the beginning.
"As a country, the territory owned by the Kingdom of Thunder is much larger than Konoha..."
"And judging from Zefeng's thoughts, it seems that he intends to let Uchiha Kiyoshi stay there and take over the Kingdom of Thunder."
As the old fox in charge of Konoha's administrative department.
Mito Gate's political sense has always been sharp.
Although he recognized Zefeng's decision this time and regarded him as Konoha's hero in another sense.
but……
Regarding the Uchiha clan, Mito Kadeni still felt a little wary.
They could easily become arrogant just by running a Konoha Police Department.
This would be if Uchiha Kiyoshi were to manage a country.
Then he can't go directly to heaven?
"What do you mean?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows, hearing the implication of Mito Monen's words.
"The Third Hokage, do you think we should find Uchiha Kiyoshi?"
"He is the captain of the Konoha Police Department after all."
"The Konoha Police Department needs him."
"As for the candidate to take over the Kingdom of Thunder."
"Then you can delegate it to Sarutobi Asuma, or someone else."
Mito Menyan paused for a moment, as if he had made a lot of determination.
"If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible for me to personally take charge of the Kingdom of Thunder."
For Mito Menitis requirements.
Koharu and Hiruzen were both stunned.
They didn't expect that he would volunteer in front of them.
I need to personally go to the Kingdom of Thunder and take over the management there.
the other side……
Uchiha resident.
Zabuza and Haku have been living in Uchiha since they followed Namikaze Minato back to the village.
The house was assigned to them by Setsuna.
The two of them are gradually getting used to the life here.
In particular, Zabuza was not only moved by the gift of the beheading sword from Zephyr.
He also deeply admired He Feng as a person.
However……
Just as he was lamenting this incident, the broadcast loudspeaker at the Uchiha station began to echo the news of the victory of the war.
"The Kingdom of Thunder is destroyed?!"
Zabuza blinked hard, unable to believe what he heard.
If the country of thunder is one of the five great countries.
It turned out to be like this...
Perished!
Gulu.
Zabuza rolled his throat and swallowed nervously.
An unprecedented shock shocked his heart.
He couldn't help but start to doubt whether his ears had heard false news!
Immediately afterwards...
Zabuza recalled the dream that Zephyr had told him when he summoned him.
Want, the dream of unifying the ninja world.
"This guy is actually serious!"
Zabuza gasped and exclaimed.
