The news of the complete fall of Sunagakure Village spread throughout the entire shinobi world within a few days.
City of Thunder.
Yunyin Village.
Uchiha Kiyoshi has been working in the Raikage Building since he captured Kumogakure Village.
And with his iron-blooded skills, he annexed all the territory of the Kingdom of Thunder.
The daimyo group headed by the daimyo of the Land of Thunder.
Completely destroyed by him.
Moreover, under Zefeng's instructions, Uchiha Kiyoshi changed the name of the original Kingdom of Thunder to the City of Thunder.
And he naturally became the first city lord of Thunder City.
It can be said that he is like a feudal official.
In addition to promoting Japanese policies every day, I also pay attention to the changes in the ninja world.
When the information that Sand Hidden Village was successfully captured by Zefeng was delivered to him, he was extremely excited, "That's great."
Although the shadow of Ninja Village is not as powerful as the daimyo of a country.
But Ninja Village undoubtedly has the strongest combat power in a country.
A well-trained and battle-hardened Jonin is simply not something that a samurai can match.
According to Uchiha Kiyoshi's speculation, it won't be long before the entire Kingdom of Wind will become like the Kingdom of Thunder.
Incorporated into the territory of the Kingdom of Fire.
The name will also be changed to Windy City.
In his heart, he was sincerely happy for the breeze.
"Should we do something?"
Tanano, who was born in the Hyuga clan, thought for a moment and asked.
Hyuga Tanano himself comes from a separate family, but he has considerable talent.
Whether it is the Six Styles or Armed Haki, he is the leader of the Hyuga clan.
And he is Hizashi's distant cousin.
With this relationship, Hefeng promoted him to become Qing's advisor.
The purpose of this is to prevent others from having the feeling that the Uchiha clan is the dominant one.
Looking at the five major countries in the ninja world.
Only the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Thunder have the best geographical environment.
A land with fertile land, abundant water, and a prosperous population.
A paradise where all the people are martial.
Once they enter a period of peace, the economic development and military development of these two regions will be quite rapid.
Based on this relationship, Hefeng was naturally worried about handing over the City of Thunder to outsiders.
But after all, the field where Hinata's family came from is also Zefeng's confidant.
It seems that the two people can check and balance each other.
But in fact, both of them are people who work wholeheartedly for Hefeng.
So when Hyugatano learned about the fall of Sunagakure Village.
He immediately thought of Zefeng's possible next move.
Uchiha Kiyoshi sat on the seat that originally belonged to the Raikage and turned his head to glance at the field.
"you mean?"
He and Tian Ye were the only two people in the huge office.
The ANBU ninja who was responsible for delivering the information had also been called out by him.
"Although Sunagakure Village is also one of the five great ninja villages, its living environment is harsh due to the barren land."
"Their number of ninjas is also the rarest among the five major ninja villages."
"Not to mention that the daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind has no regard for the military and is cutting military funding year by year."
In Hinata's opinion, if it weren't for every generation in Sunagakure Village, a genius Kazekage would be born.
Their status may have been surpassed by Yuyin Village and Takigakure Village long ago.
"It won't be long before the Kingdom of Wind will be like Sunagakure Village."
“Become part of our country.”
When the words "our country" were mentioned, Tian Ye's face seemed to be filled with the word "pride".
"Then what?" Uchiha Qing nodded slightly, feeling that what Tian Ye said made sense.
Even his views on the future situation are exactly the same as Tian Tian.
The reason why Tian Ye was allowed to continue was to see if he had exactly the same idea as him.
"In this way, the original Kingdom of Wind, Kingdom of Fire, and Kingdom of Thunder will be integrated into one whole, one country."
"Although there are other small countries in the ninja world."
"Such as the country of iron, the country of grass, and the country of soup."
"It's nothing to worry about at all, just eat it up slowly."
"But the Kingdom of Earth is completely different. As one of the five major countries, they have a very rich heritage."
"The Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village and the Daimyo of Earth Country are also very aligned."
"After they hear that Sunagakure Village has fallen, they will definitely strengthen the border defenses."
Tian Tian paused slightly.
"Although I don't know what Hokage-sama's attitude is yet, I feel that his next move will not have any thoughts about the Kingdom of Water."
Distribution according to geographical environment.
The Kingdom of Water and the Kingdom of Thunder face each other across the sea.
It's not on the ninja continent.
On the contrary, the Earth Kingdom is entrenched in the north of the ninja world.
Although the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is now surrounded by the Kingdom of Wind, the Kingdom of Fire, and the Kingdom of Thunder.
If the three fronts send troops at the same time, even Yanyin Village will be unable to fight with two fists.
The incorporation of the Earth Kingdom into their national territory is just around the corner.
"So, my idea is, why not take advantage of now to form a ninja force and go to the junction of Thunder City and Earth Kingdom."
"Monitor their developments and gather intelligence."
"As preparation for the attack."
Tian Ye spoke out his thoughts in detail.
Instead of waiting for Hefeng to personally give the order, he would then hurriedly assemble manpower.
It is better to take action in advance.
Then we will cooperate with Hefeng's plan.
Iwagakure Village can be easily captured.
Snap!
Uchiha Qing heard the words and slapped his palms heavily on the table, "Okay."
I saw him letting out a hearty laugh, "Seriously, Tianye, you and I want to be together."
As Zefeng's confidant.
Uchiha Kiyoshi feels that he understands Zephyr quite well.
His ambition will never stop here.
Attacking on three fronts at the same time is undoubtedly the fastest way to take down the Kingdom of Earth.
It is worth mentioning that……
When Zephyr asked Uchiha Kiyoshi to attack Cloud Hidden Village, he was only given a thousand ninjas.
But after Uchiha Kiyoshi successfully captured Cloud Hidden Village, Zephyr gradually sent him new manpower.
Not only that, those samurai who chose to surrender, the Kumo ninja.
They were all divided into his troops.
It is conservatively estimated that Uchiha Qing has at least nearly 20,000 troops in his hands.
At that time, he will personally lead the team and lead 5,000 people.
It can definitely break through the defense line established by Iwagakure Village.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Kiyoshi started gearing up excitedly.
I can’t wait to take people out immediately.
Of course, when no orders from Zephyr were received.
He will not attack rashly.
"field."
Uchiha Kiyoshi took a deep breath, "Just do as you say."
"As for the ninja troops that collect intelligence, they should be mainly members of the Uchiha and Hyuga clans."
No matter what, the members of both of their tribes possess excellent child skills.
It has a natural advantage in gathering intelligence.
"yes!"
Tian Ye responded loudly, and he already had a suitable candidate in his heart.
The land of earth.
Iwagakure Village.
Tsuchikage Building.
Although the Third Hokage Onoki led the Jonin of Iwagakure Village, he participated in the Battle of Sunagakure Village.
He unleashed his ultimate move on Ze Feng several times.
But as the war ended, Zephyr did not embarrass these Iwa ninjas.
Instead, the Iwa ninja who surrendered were released on the spot, giving them a chance to return to Iwagakure Village.
It is precisely because of this...
The first thing these Iwagakure did when they returned to the village was to inform the top management of Iwagakure Village about the defeat.
Interior of Tsuchikage's office.
The elders of Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage advisors, and elite Jonin.
All gathered here.
Everyone's face was as pale as paper.
Looking at the empty Tsuchikage seat.
An unprecedented despair slowly spread in their hearts.
Actually...
The battle at Sunagakure Village was not just about the sacrifice of the Sandaime Tsuchikage.
The backbone jounin had lost a lot.
"Instead of dwelling on the past, the more important issue now is how to overcome the current difficulties."
Finally, it was the elder named Chiyan who broke the silence in the room.
Onoki's death in battle is undoubtedly a terrible thing for the entire Iwagakure Village.
But bigger trouble is also before them.
"Although Konoha has only temporarily occupied Sunagakure Village, the Kingdom of Wind, which has lost its military power, will probably fall completely before long."
Chiyan analyzed the current situation.
He knew that every country's daimyo would have thousands of samurai groups.
Protect the interests of the daimyo.
but……
The power gap between samurai and ninja cannot be filled by numbers at all.
Based on this, he felt that it was only a matter of time before the entire Kingdom of Wind fell completely.
"Plus the previous Kingdom of Thunder."
"Konoha can be said to have swallowed half of the entire ninja world."
Elder Chiyan continued.
Although there are enough countries in the ninja world, large and small, there are more than a dozen countries, but in terms of land area.
The five major countries are the real behemoths.
The land owned by other countries may not be comparable to that of a city in the five major countries.
Konoha, which owns the lands of the Land of Fire, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Thunder, says that they occupy one-half of the land of the ninja world.
Nothing inappropriate.
"The Kingdom of Water faces the other four countries across the sea."
"The location of Kirigakure Village is surrounded by thick fog all year round."
“Coupled with the sea, we have two natural barriers.”
But this time, Elder Chiyan had just finished speaking.
Another elder named Gao Shan couldn't help but answer.
"The situation in Kirigakure Village is probably not optimistic."
"In the incident in the Blood Mist, many new generations died."
"Then the Fourth Mizukage cooperated with the Raikage to attack Konoha."
"As a result, a large number of ninjas were lost due to defeat."
"Now, plus this time, I'm afraid there won't be many ninjas left in Kirigakure Village."
Elder Gao Shan said with a serious look.
And since even an old man like himself can know such news.
That Konoha probably also knows very well.
"If I were the Hokage of Konoha Village, I would never regard such a being as the number one enemy."
The implication is that Elder Gao Shan’s opinion is...
Konoha Hokage's next target will definitely be their Iwagakure Village.
And these words were like a bomb that exploded in everyone's heart.
The atmosphere at the scene became more depressing.
This is also the reality stated by Elder Chiyan.
"good."
He nodded vigorously and agreed with Elder Gao Shan's opinion.
"We are Konoha's next target."
Although there are still various small countries in the ninja world, in his opinion, these small countries will not interfere in the war with them.
Just like the incident in the Kingdom of Thunder.
These small countries also chose to sit on the sidelines.
"Elder Akaiyan, there is no Tsuchikage in the village now."
At this moment, an elite jounin joined the conversation after some hesitation.
In his opinion, there is no Tsuchikage in the village, which means there is no spiritual support.
The most urgent task is to select a suitable candidate to inherit the will of the third Tsuchikage.
but……
Elder Chiyan had other opinions.
"Qingshi, between you, how much hope do we have of stopping the invasion of Konoha ninjas?"
It has to be said that as soon as these words came out, Qingshi fell into silence on the spot.
Although he was ready to die on the battlefield, he faced this problem.
He really couldn't answer.
It's not because you don't know the answer.
It was precisely because he had an answer in his heart.
During the Third Ninja War, Iwagakure suffered heavy losses.
Coupled with the lack of fertile land, they have not returned to their former heyday over the past decade or so.
In fact, the reason why Ōnoki is unable to take up the position of the Sandaime Tsuchikage just explains the current situation of Iwagakure Village's lack of support.
even……
If you really want to elect a Tsuchikage.
He didn't know who was suitable.
On the other hand, look at Konoha.
Not to mention that we just captured Sunagakure Village.
The Hokage of Konoha was one against three.
Defeated the Earth Shadow, Wind Shadow, and Water Shadow.
This is when morale is high.
I really have to say how much hope I have to stop Konoha's invasion.
He really couldn't say it.
Elder Chiyan stared at the young man in front of him.
Then he sighed helplessly.
Qingshi's silence was tantamount to giving an answer.
In fact, as the elder of Yanyin Village, how could he not know the situation of the village?
If you count chuunin and genin.
At best, they could muster ten thousand ninjas.
This is on the premise that weight is not important over quality.
If Konoha starts from the third route.
These ten thousand people will be divided into three teams to protect the south, east, and west of the Kingdom of Earth...
In this way, the investment on one front is more than 3,000 people.
With more than three thousand ninjas, they want to stop Konoha's ambition?
Unless you are an optimist.
Otherwise, Chi Yan really couldn't figure out where the other party derived his confidence.
Thinking back to the time of the Third Ninja War.
Tens of thousands of Iwa ninjas managed to drag the Third Raikage to death.
It is still based on the premise that no loss is considered.
Now Konoha's Fifth Hokage is undoubtedly a stronger being than the Third Raikage.
Those three thousand people might not even be able to stop the gentle breeze.
Elder Chiyan pointedly expressed his worries.
The result was just as he expected.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mood of everyone present became more desperate.
"so……"
Chiyan glanced at everyone present, and then made an unexpected decision.
"We simply give up resistance..."
However, what Elder Chiyan said did not have much confidence.
After all, since the era of ninjas, Iwagakure Village has not been defeated.
"What!?"
In an instant, the whole place was in an uproar.
