The bloody incident close to the border of Yuno Country is really something that makes Konoha unable to dismount.
The fault is obviously on our own side, but now that the instigator has been charged with defecting, everything has become a bit ambiguous.
Since this incident was the result of Danzo Shimura's selfish desires, how should the Konoha ninjas who died in this incident be comforted?
Is it really necessary to attribute everything to a traitorous ninja? That would be too chilling for the ninjas guarding the border of Konoha.
Just talking about the matter, the anger of [Thunder Light Group] is understandable, but the infiltrators have also paid the price with their lives. In addition, it is a tacit thing for the ninja forces to send spies to each other, especially when the two are extremely extreme. In the adjacent geographical environment, such activities seem to be natural.
On the contrary, Tang Zhiguo's attitude was too bad and radical.
Kill if you step on it,
How can the long border be so clearly defined!
The Sandaime's words did arouse some of the participants' grudge against Yunokuni. After all, those were living human lives, elites that Konoha had spent countless energy and effort to cultivate.
And every loss of life represents the sorrow of a family behind it.
But even so, no one dared to take the lead in expressing their willingness to agree.
This is not just because the alliance issued by Yunyin Village is not credible to Konoha, and they are worried that this is a trap set by the former.
Especially because no one wants to touch the extremely sensitive word war.
Even judging from the superficial strength, according to the alliance between Konoha and Kumogakure, it will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the emerging power of Yu Country.
And even if this is a conspiracy set up by Kumoyin Village, then as long as the main battlefield is placed in the country of Yu, and as long as the leader of the war is not Konoha, then our side can maintain a good way of advancing, attacking, and retreating. status.
but!
In a sense, as long as a war is launched and casualties occur on one's own side, then this operation is actually a failure.
In peacetime, no one wants to cause such man-made cholera again.
At least the overall environment within Konoha is one that yearns for peace, and the most radical Danzo Shimura has also 'betrayed' the village.
Therefore, this is the fundamental reason why no one spoke out despite the dissatisfaction with Tang Zhiguo among the attendees.
The most important thing is, judging from the known information, the ninja organization named [Thunder Light Group] has revealed its sharp fangs.
Destroying a complete Iron Kingdom army and a group of hundreds of Kumogakure ninjas in one night was enough to make it powerful, and it also exceeded many people's understanding of an emerging force.
Once a war breaks out, Konoha will inevitably suffer a certain blow.
Although Yunyin initiated the joint alliance, such an alliance is not much stronger than paper.
Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not expect to push the entire incident in the direction he envisioned with just a few words, so he gently tapped the table and continued to drop a piece of bombshell news:
"Just yesterday, a group of over a thousand Amegakure Village ninjas completely entered the territory of Yuno Country."
"And there was no sign of any fighting between the two."
As soon as this statement came out, the entire conference room exploded.
Even the face of the man in brocade uniform sitting behind the Sandaime showed a real expression of emotion.
Since there is no friction or collision, there is only one message that can be drawn: alliance, or even merger!
"How is it possible? How can the Kingdom of Yu, which is far away on the east coast, establish contact with the Kingdom of Rain, which is inland? What's the trick in this?"
"Where is Lord Hanzo? Where is Lord Sansho Hanzo? Has he arrived in the Country of Yu?"
"..."
Just like what happened in the Hokage's office last night, these two questions were the most vivid in the suddenly noisy scene.
Because once the situation of Sansho Hanzo moving into Yunokuni is established,
Then the west, north and east borders of the Country of Fire are completely connected and there is no place for slacking off!
This will put great pressure on Konoha's defense!
[Sunagakure], [Akatsuki Organization], [Iwagakure], [Kusagakure], [Thunder Light Group/Amegakure], and [Kirigakure] who have been at odds with Konoha for decades, and now they are suddenly at odds with each other. [Land of Iron].
The whole situation is really not optimistic at all!
"Although it is currently unknown whether Sansho Hanzo has followed this Amegakure force into the territory of Yu no Kuni, we must be on guard against it."
"I think everyone should remember how Yugakure single-handedly started a war between the three neighboring countries."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said something ambiguous.
There was no acknowledgment or denial, and there was no speculation about last night.
Instead, the past deeds of the ninja demigod were singled out and emphasized.
Such a sentence immediately made the whole scene become more solemn. Almost everyone was thinking deeply and reminiscing.
To single-handedly provoke war against three major countries at the same time, I am afraid that only the demigod from Yuyin Village has had such a record in history!
Even the title of 'Konoha Sannin' was given by him.
Of course, the fundamental reason why he has such confidence and courage is also because the opponent's poison skills are too overbearing and difficult to solve.
Although decades have passed since that tragic battle, there is no doubt that the senior ninjas present and the heads of the aristocratic families present will not be able to forget it easily.
"Think about it, Danzo Shimura, that old fool, got such a message in advance, so he secretly collaborated with the generals of the Iron Country to eliminate such a hidden danger."
"After all, the former Iron Kingdom was completely shrouded in the shadow of Lord Hanzo."
"Until now, their standard armors still have gas masks that can filter poison gas."
Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned Danzo intentionally or unintentionally,
I don’t know if it’s because I want to offset some of the charges later or something else.
"But no matter what the reason, that guy's way of dealing with things is a serious excess and a serious violation of ninja regulations."
"After the ANBU ninja successfully arrests him, he will definitely be handed over to the Iron Country for disposal."
Of course, such excuses were quickly suppressed by his righteous words, as if he were a fair and just person in charge.
However, such remarks ultimately planted different seeds in the hearts of some participants.
"Although His Excellency Danzo's daily behavior is a bit too extreme, in many things he is indeed considering Konoha and taking actions for the development of Konoha."
A voice like this came from a senior who had experienced the Ninja World War.
He still relatively recognized some of the old man's methods and skills.
After all, this is the nature of the ninja world.
If you don't want to destroy yourself, then you can only be cruel to the enemy.
"Maybe Danzo-dono's desperate action this time is because he doesn't want to let the news leak out and wants to kill the crisis before it completely breaks out."
"I just didn't expect that an emerging force could contain such powerful power."
"Perhaps we should really carefully consider and explore what this rising force is for, and what kind of existence is behind it."
After such doubts arise, more solemn reflections follow.
Almost everyone has this thought in their mind, what kind of secrets does [Tang Country Thunder Group], a force that has risen almost overnight, hide?
During this period, Huang remained expressionless and indifferent. During this period, he could feel countless meaningful glances passing over his cheeks.
But he still didn't show any emotion.
Because he clearly knows that the establishment and stability of a large stronghold must go through the test of blood and fire.
This is not just for him, but all those who choose to stay should have this awareness.
Huang's calmness obviously made the owners of those eyes feel a little disappointed.
However, this does not prevent them from further progress:
"As for the joint proposal of Yunyin Village, I think we should seriously consider it."
After going to bed, Xiaochun suddenly spoke. This was his duty as a consultant.
"What do you think?"
At the same time, she also threw the question back to the participants present.
The threat of Yunokuni is obvious to all, and now Amegakure Village has an ambiguous relationship with it. What to do next is what Konoha needs to make a decision.
"Kumogakure's ninjas are not worthy of trust!"
"In the past, the incident with the Hyuga clan is the best proof."
"It's more likely that this is another trick by those guys to get [White Eyes]."
"Those guys are just a bunch of profit-seeking wolves. What happened on the eastern border three years ago is the best proof!"
"It's best if the two can fight comprehensively. Anyway, in the end, it will be dog bite and dog bite."
"We just need to strengthen our defense to prevent them from getting drunk."
"Furthermore, once we are involved in such a situation, what kind of damage will it cause to Konoha?"
"Three years ago, we lost hundreds of outstanding ninjas!"
Immediately there were voices of opposition among the participants. He was wearing dark green ninja armor and had a ferocious cross scar on his right cheek. He was a jounin who had participated in the fight against Kirigakure's invasion.
This statement immediately won the approval of some people.
Until this situation is completely stabilized, choosing to sit back and watch is undoubtedly the most sensible approach.
But there are also some radical opinions.
"Are we going to watch our ninja die in vain and do nothing?"
"Before the Amegakure ninjas arrived, the so-called [Thunder Light Group] was able to treat our border ninjas so brutally, but what about after getting the help of Amegakure Village?"
"No one knows Sanshouyu Hanzo's deeds and strength better than us, right?"
"After consolidating his power, what actions will he take? Will he refer to the past and launch the Fourth Ninja War? All of this is unknown!"
"And judging from the current Raikage of Cloud Hidden Village's extremely protective nature, the [Bitter Meat Plot] is impossible to exist."
"The lives of more than a hundred Kumogakure elites, which force can make such a sacrifice?"
The speaker was obviously more afraid of the threat from Yuyin Village and the former demigod.
After all, Yunyin Village is still separated from them by several countries, but the [Thunder Light Group], a rough ninja organization, is closely adjacent to them.
"So I think there is nothing wrong with agreeing to the merger with Yunyin Village."
"At least we must show that Konoha attaches great importance to border issues and find out whether Sansho Hanzo is in the country of Yuno!"
he went on to add.
This also expressed the sentiments of most people present.
[Ninja World Demigod], this name is too loud and it directly represents the ceiling of an era.
It is a completely different concept than just a group of Amegakure ninjas merging into the Country of Yu.
However, just as Konoha was debating whether to accept the request from Kumogakure Village to join forces, and put pressure on the Country of Yu, and even crusade, an unrest broke out in the Country of Thunder far away in the northeastern corner of the continent. The smoke of gunpowder is a loud and powerful denunciation!
【War? Another war? 】
[Have you forgotten the pain after the scar has healed? Have you forgotten about the incident a few years ago when the Akatsuki organization took advantage of the situation and beat you up on your doorstep? Now we are starting another meaningless war to allow such ugliness to continue? 】
【revenge? Revenge for the unprovoked massacre of the ninjas of Hidden Cloud Village? What about the accusation from the Daimyo of Yu no Kuni? Which ninja side caused the incident first? 】
[Is the current Raikage so unable to control his temper and not consider the overall situation at all? Look at the images of other major ninja villages, there are none like this! If you really have no talent, no vision of the overall situation, and only have a force of arms, then step down as soon as possible and don't waste our support! Don't push the entire Kingdom of Thunder into a place of eternal destruction. 】
[Has Yunyin Village really calculated how many materials it has asked for from us for reconstruction due to the attack three years ago? How much subsidy do we need to pay for every ninja we cultivate and for every ninja who dies? 】
[Listen, the current Yondaime should really listen to what he is said to be like outside. He takes the lead in sneaking into other ninja villages and the clans of other aristocratic families, and forcibly plunders their secret techniques. Is this the Raikage or a bandit? ! ! 】
【............】
Like the wings of a butterfly gently fluttering, too many letters of condemnation flew like snowflakes to the Daming Mansion and Yunyin Village in the Kingdom of Thunder.
These letters are all from domestic dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, and their number accounts for almost one-third of the upper-class people in the Kingdom of Thunder.
The two points that can be summarized are:
[The Kingdom of Thunder does not need an unnecessary war, and the people of the Kingdom of Thunder do not need this war. If Yunyin Village insists on asking for an explanation, it can be done, but from now on, don’t try to get it from them. Every penny of funding. 】
[The second point is more direct: The Kingdom of Thunder does not need a shadow who is impatient and foolhardy when things happen. If you don’t have talent, then step down! ! 】
