Three days later, Danzo led a team to resist the Fire Nation capital.
By this time, news of the murder of daimyo and noble officials had already spread back to the capital.
The murder of all the daimyo and high-ranking officials created a power vacuum throughout the Fire Nation.
The daimyo's legitimate son, Enichikyu, who is ten years old this year, is preparing to ascend the throne with the support of his family and some noble forces.
Danzo had been paying attention to the Daimyo's legitimate son for a long time. In his eyes, this smart kid was an existence that must die.
After arriving in the capital, he met with the noble officials who were temporarily in charge of affairs, as well as the daimyo's wife and legitimate son. After expressing Konoha's apology and condolences, Danzo returned to Konoha's property in the capital of Fire Country.
In the secret room, Danzo met some members of the Nara clan who served in the capital. From their mouths, he learned more about the political situation in the capital, especially those nobles who were loyal to the daimyo.
On the second day, Danzo represented Konoha and attended the court meeting. At the court meeting, the peacefulness of yesterday was changed, and he was very disrespectful towards Enichikyu, who had not yet become a daimyo.
Danzo did this not because he was dazzled by the good situation and became inflated, but because he wanted to test the loyalty of these nobles to the daimyo.
Unite allies, win over neutrals, and destroy enemies. This is the general policy that Kizaru gave Danzo before he left.
Danzo's actions naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of a large number of noble officials at the court meeting. Even impulsive young nobles rushed to Danzo and wanted to take action.
If others hadn't stopped him, this young man might have died here.
Keeping these noble officials who protected the daimyo's legitimate son in mind, Danzo returned to his residence as soon as possible after the court meeting.
In the secret room, Danzo gave the first order to the root ninjas who followed him, pretending to be wandering ninjas and attacking the daimyo's family and some nobles.
Two nights later, when Danzo left the capital to visit his friends in a nearby town, a group of wandering ninjas of unknown origin attacked the capital.
Facing the attack, the ninjas hired and trained by the nobles dispersed after desperately resisting and losing.
There were loyal ninjas and samurai who led the direct descendants of the nobles. They wanted to escape through the secret passage, but they were surrounded and killed outside the capital.
That night, the fighting and fire lasted for most of the night. The central area of the capital, where the nobles lived, was brutally destroyed, and the ground was covered with corpses.
It was not until late at night that Danzo, who received the message asking for help, arrived belatedly and led Konoha's delegation to repel this group of "wandering ninjas".
This attack resulted in the death of thousands of people, many noble families were wiped out, and all their property was robbed.
The daimyo clan also suffered heavy losses and were on the verge of being exterminated. Only one daimyo concubine who was born in the Sarutobi clan of Konoha and her four-year-old bastard survived.
Of course, outside the capital, there are many members of the Daimyo clan, especially branch clans, who have been enfeoffed or assigned to serve as local officials.
Danzo was extremely "angry" about this attack. He immediately sent a message to Konoha, asking the village to arrange for thousands of ninjas to come to the capital to protect the safety of the surviving nobles.
At the same time, Danzo also immediately sent people to track down this group of ninja gangs with unknown origins, and announced that they would all be captured and executed.
This attack made the already unstable continent even more tense.
These are daimyo and nobles! Thousands of people died in just a few days, a level of casualties unheard of for hundreds of years.
When the news reached Konoha, the whole village was in panic. Most of the ninjas and middle and lower ninjas in the village who were unaware of Kizaru's plan became uneasy.
The middle and lower ninjas were okay. Most of them at most expressed their indignation at the murder of the daimyo and nobles, and their curiosity about the attack.
The ninja clan of Konoha felt something was wrong.
The daimyo and noble officials had just been killed. As the representative of Konoha, Danzo had just arrived at the capital of the Land of Fire, and such a vicious attack had occurred there. No matter how you thought about it, something was wrong.
The first thought of the elders of the ninja clan who have matured as they have matured is that the core leaders of the village, headed by Kizaru, took advantage of the power vacuum created by the murder of the daimyo and noble officials, and interfered in the political affairs of the Fire Country, hoping to further seize control of the country. The voice of the Fire Nation.
In this regard, other than sighing at Kizaru's ruthlessness, these ninjas did not show any dissatisfaction.
Although these ninjas have been dealing with nobles since the Warring States Period and even had marriages, everyone understands that the interests of the family lie in the village. The stronger the village, the more benefits everyone can gain.
This time a large number of nobles were wiped out, which is a good thing for Konoha. Everyone can occupy more power and resources in the Land of Fire.
As the current Hokage of Konoha, Kizaru showed a lot of anger and shock after receiving the news. Regardless of the risk of Uchiha Madara attacking the village, he immediately summoned thousands of elite ninjas and personally led the team there. The capital of the country.
Kizaru's anger and shock were not all staged, but some were his true feelings.
He arranged for his uncle Danzo to go to the capital of the Land of Fire to deal with the affairs of the daimyo and nobles. He really wanted to use Danzo's evil intentions to poison him, but he did not expect that his uncle would do things so dishonorably.
This attack was so crude that even a smart person could figure out who the murderer was.
Indeed, as Kizaru expected, when the news of the attack on the capital spread in the Country of Fire, the Fire Temple, a third party force of the Country of Fire, stood up. These monks who practiced Chakra strongly condemned On the other hand, hundreds of monk soldiers were sent to the capital to protect the safety of the nobles.
At about the same time, one or two independent ninja clans and ninja forces who did not know whether to live or die also jumped out, looking loyal to avenge the daimyo and nobles.
As for other small forces, they are well aware of the rules for the weak to survive in the ninja world. Apart from publicly condemning the criminals a few times, they fell silent and tightened their manpower.
"Uncle, you went too far this time." In the secret room, Kizaru expressed his dissatisfaction.
"The nobles of the capital unite to support the Daimyo's legitimate son and are very wary of us. Mild methods will not be very effective." Danzo explained.
"Where are the nobles who do business with us?" Kizaru asked.
"Same thing!" Danzo replied.
Nodding, Kizaru realized that he might have fallen into the trap of historical experience. The nobles in this world are different from those in previous lives. Facing the powerful armed group of Ninja Village, it is indeed the best choice for them to join together.
"I understand, then I'll leave the rest to you." Kizaru chose to believe in Danzo, since these nobles would be killed sooner or later anyway.
"Leave it to me! Within half a year, I will make your voice the only one left in the entire Fire Country." Danzo promised seriously.
"I'm looking forward to it!" Kizaru smiled.
Danzo's operation in the capital of the Land of Fire was like a corkscrew, opening Pandora's box and creating a template for other ninja villages.
On the seventh day after the attack on the capital of the Country of Fire, after the news spread to the entire continent, the capital of the Country of Wind was also attacked by an unknown gang of wandering ninjas.
This team is even more ruthless than the one that attacked the capital of the Kingdom of Fire!
In the entire capital of the Kingdom of Wind, almost all the nobles and wealthy businessmen were killed, leaving no one alive.
In the palaces of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind, almost all valuable items were stripped clean.
Sunagakure Village also showed an angry attitude towards this attack, and sent a large number of ninjas to search for the whereabouts of the attackers in the Kingdom of Wind. The Fourth Kazekage Chiyo even said that Sunagakure Village and these attackers will not stop until death. !
Two major countries were attacked one after another, which made the nobles of other countries feel in danger. Many daimyo from small countries even sent people to Konoha and paid heavily to hire Konoha's elite ninjas to protect their own safety.
Facing these security hiring task orders that were pouring in, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who replaced Kizaru in Konoha, smiled very happily. He did not expect that Danzo's operation would actually increase Konoha's income so much.
Among the five major countries, the other three countries that were not attacked faced such a situation and also sent ninjas to the capital for the purpose of protecting their daimyo and nobles.
Here, the new daimyo and noble officials of the Kingdom of Water expressed their dissatisfaction with the so-called protection of Kirigakure Village. Not only did they refuse the ninjas from Kirigakure Village to enter the capital, they also hired a large number of wandering ninjas to increase their own strength.
Obviously, the officials of the Kingdom of Water, who were already wary of Kirigakure Village, became even more distrustful of Kirigakure's ninjas after witnessing what happened on the mainland.
Facing the government's rejection, Kirigakure did not show any dissatisfaction for the time being. They were currently in the midst of internal fighting and had no energy to intervene in the capital's affairs.
After the fourth generation Mizukage Goju lost his warehouse and returned to the village, with the support of the Konoha ANBU ninjas led by Senju Tobirama, he started a power struggle with the village elder Genshi.
Genshi's influence in Kirigakure Village is deep-rooted, and he has deep interests with many ninja clans, making him extremely powerful.
Apart from the reputation of the fourth-generation Mizukage who was unfairly placed in the position, Gouji lost his position and had almost nothing. The gap in strength between the two sides was very obvious.
Senju Tobijian, who secretly sneaked into Kirigakure Village, analyzed and recognized the strength gap between the two sides, and confirmed that without the use of some violent means, the winning rate of Gouji losing his position was almost zero.
Senju Tobirama, who grew up in the Warring States Period and assisted his elder brother in creating the ninja village system, was an extremely rational wise man.
He will not have any mercy or bottom line for his enemies, and will only try his best to defeat and eliminate them.
Senju Tobirama put forward his own suggestions to Gouji Shicang, assassinate the Yuanshi, and destroy Kirigakure's forces from the top.
From Senju Tobirama's point of view, the reason why these ninja clans and ninja forces can unite together depends on the master to maintain the balance of everyone's interests.
Once Yuanshi, the talker and divider of interests, is killed, the alliance will instantly collapse and the entire Kirigakure Village will fall into chaos.
Only when Gouji loses his position, the fourth generation Mizukage, who is alone in his family, will have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and seize power.
Regarding Qianju Tobirama's suggestion, Gouji Shicang was hesitant. It wasn't that he didn't believe Tobirama, but he was afraid that after Master Yuan was killed, he would become a loser and suffer everyone's suspicion and siege.
Senju Tobirama expressed his understanding for the worry about losing the Goju warehouse, and made a promise that even if the struggle failed in the end, he would ensure the safety of the lost Goju warehouse, bring it back to Konoha, and place it properly.
At the same time, Senshou Tobirama also explained in detail why Gouji lost his position, analyzing the fragility of the alliance of forces behind Yuanshi, and the reasons for such actions.
Under the persuasion of Senju Tobirama, Gouju Shicang finally agreed to the proposal of this senior ninja world.
Just when Senshou Tobijian was assisting Gouji Shicang to take control of Kirigakure Village, something big happened in the Kingdom of Earth in the west of the continent.
Iwagakure Village in the Land of Earth has been based on the purpose of unity and perseverance since its establishment. It is very united internally and maintains a relatively harmonious cooperative relationship with daimyo and nobles.
If the Third Tsuchikage Onoki hadn't made a big mistake in forming a coalition to attack Madara Uchiha, and Kizaru had a fatal handle on it, and the forces in Konoha were too powerful, he might not have agreed to Kizaru's request. Ape's plan.
But now that things have come to this, Ohnoki has no choice but to ask the daimyo and nobles of the Earth Country to die for the sake of the family descendants and the Iwagakure Village.
After returning to Iwagakure Village, Onoki immediately summoned his trusted confidants and vaguely proposed the idea of seizing the complete power of the Earth Kingdom.
These confidants were frightened by Lord Tsuchikage's ambition, and many people tried to dissuade him. Of course, there were also ninjas who supported him.
Onoki had already anticipated this, and he was prepared to unify the thoughts of his subordinates before taking action.
Unfortunately, one after another surprises ruined Ohnoki's plan.
First, the capital of the Kingdom of Fire was attacked, leaving only a four-year-old son among the daimyo's heirs. Then, the capital of the Kingdom of Wind was attacked. The daimyo family was wiped out, and all the nobles and wealthy merchants in the capital were wiped out.
The actions of Danzo and Chiyo, a ruthless pair, greatly shocked Ohnoki.
Are you so hasty and ruthless? Not doing anything at all?
Onoki, who was greatly shocked, could only speed up his actions. On the one hand, he used his decades of prestige to suppress the objections of his subordinates. On the other hand, he sent ninjas to the capital of the Earth Kingdom. Supervise the situation of daimyo and nobles.
Just when Ohnoki was ready to take action, a man appeared and gave him an even bigger surprise.
This person is none other than Shura Uchiha Madara from the ninja world!
Unable to find the four-tailed jinchuriki who was wandering around, Uchiha Madara, who gradually lost his patience, chose a simple and crude method to force out the four-tailed jinchuriki.
Uchiha Madara flew to the capital of the Earth Kingdom and threatened the lives of the daimyo and all nobles in the capital, forcing Iwagakure Village to hand over the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki.
This wave of operations by Uchiha Madara scared Onoki into a cold sweat. He was secretly glad that the monster Uchiha Madara did not attack Iwagakure Village and threaten the lives of all the villagers in Iwagakure Village.
Faced with the threat from Madara Uchiha, Onoki not only sent people to Konoha to seek rescue immediately, but also arranged for ninjas to search for traces of the four-tailed jinchuriki Lao Zi.
Ohnoki was looking for Lao Zi, not because he wanted to hand him over to Uchiha Madara. Although he had a bad relationship with Lao Zi, he would not betray the jinchuriki of the village.
The reason why Onoki sent people to look for Lao Zi was because he was worried that Lao Zi, a bastard, after hearing about Uchiha Madara coming to the capital of Earth Kingdom, his head got hot and he ran to stop Uchiha Madara.
Lao Zi is a ninja with a limited range of melting blood and a four-tailed jinchuriki. He is very powerful, but when facing Uchiha Madara, he just delivers food.
Sitting in the Tsuchikage office, Onoki had only one thought in his mind at this time, Lao Zi, this bastard! Don't go and die for me!
