Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 464: Action Underway

I heard Obito finally relent.

Black Zetsu was immediately delighted. To be honest, although Black Zetsu still had some backup means to guard against Obito and Nagato, they all carried certain risks and might not be able to be implemented smoothly.

If Madara cannot be resurrected successfully.

That really means postponing the plan.

Of course, it's not that we can't wait.

Having survived a thousand years, it seems that surviving another hundred years shouldn't be a problem, but Black Zetsu really doesn't want to see any unexpected twists and turns.

Now that Obito is willing to resurrect Madara, that is the best development.

Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan in its prime can only be dealt with by the resurrected son Hagoromo. Otherwise, Madara is invincible. No matter how strong Uzumaki Menma is, he can never be a match for Uchiha Madara.

Black Zetsu has just such sufficient confidence.

"Let's go. We need to make more preparations. The current Nagato is not the same Nagato as before."

Obito took one last deep look at the Hidden Rain Village, and as he whispered this, an extremely cold look flashed in his pupils.

next second.

The figures of Obito and Black Zetsu also disappeared into the shadows and completely vanished.

People with ulterior motives.

Different forces have gathered together and are carrying out different actions in the vast ninja world. Compared with before, the storm is already gathering strength.

Anyone with a clear mind can see that the entire ninja world is no longer in turmoil.

A large number of troops gathered rapidly.

Even the Iwagakure Village side that had planned to retreat at the beginning.

After the shortest two or three days of emergency internal consultations and external communications.

The troops were also redeployed to the southeastern border near Takikuni.

Including the Sand Village, which had been on standby all the time, this time it dispatched a large number of Sand Ninjas under the order of its own Fifth Kazekage.

There is no need to mention Konohagakure Village and Kumogakure Village.

The former was led by Danzo Shimura himself. The advance ninja force numbered as many as 7,000 people, and more troops were continuously gathering in the future. It is still the largest ninja village in the ninja world.

If they squeezed the troops as hard as possible and completely relaxed the age limit, the Hidden Leaf Village could still squeeze out nearly 20,000 troops.

This is the foundation and ability of the former number one ninja village.

This is also the level that Danzo is confident of.

All over the world.

Is there any other ninja village that can rival Konoha?!
Moreover, this time all the elite Root troops under Danzo's command came out in full force. All the special personnel previously prepared for some special situations were dispatched under Danzo's orders. This battle was the most important one for him to ascend to the throne of Hokage.

Danzo will not allow any problems to occur in the process.

It's similar in the Hidden Cloud Village.

After seeing the battle between Menma and the Iwagakure Village, the Fourth Raikage, after discussing with Dodai, truly realized that the current Hikari Village is the Konohagakure Village decades ago. If they are unwilling to accept surrender, they must join hands to get rid of the people in front of them. Therefore, the Hidden Cloud Village also sent out all its main forces this time.

The team was led by the Fourth Raikage himself, and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer Bee, fought together. Their strategic intention was simple. They would go directly south to join the main force of the Hidden Leaf Village and unite with the Iwagakure Village forces in the northwest. Then the three villages would work together to attack the heart of the Land of Water Trap in one breath.

The situation with the Sand Village is a little simpler. It will be enough as long as they can hold back the troops of the Light Village in the Land of Grass. We can't expect much from the rest.

As for the last Mist Village.

There's really nothing to count on.

In the two wars, the Hidden Mist Village lost as many as thirteen to fourteen thousand ninjas. If it could still send out troops, that would be strange.

The number of ninjas in the Hidden Mist Village during its heyday never reached 20,000, let alone during its period of decline. Before the two world wars, the number of registered ninjas in the Hidden Mist Village was just over 15,000, and that even included the old, weak, sick and disabled.

The first clash killed more than 2,000 Mist Ninjas, including Mei Terumi and Ao. In this war, more than 80% of the tens of thousands of Mist Ninjas dispatched were killed or captured in the frontal combat.

The remaining Mist Ninjas fled in all directions.

According to the order issued by Menma after leaving the southern front battlefield, almost not many people could leave River Country smoothly. It can be said that almost the entire army was wiped out. In addition, if we count the elite Mist Ninjas who Obito sneaked back in and secretly executed, the Hidden Mist Village is essentially destroyed.

At the beginning, Tsunade and the others did not expect that the Hidden Mist Village would be so miserable. They simply thought that they could at least gather the defeated soldiers and form a ninja army of five or six thousand. Later, when they learned that the Hidden Mist Village was already at the point where it could not even provide two or three thousand fresh troops, they completely gave up their expectations for the Hidden Mist Village.

Just such a ninja village?
I'm afraid it won't even attract the attention of the Hidden Light Village. More importantly, the Hidden Mist Village has 100% lost the courage to continue fighting.

Do we still need others to send troops?

That would probably require putting a knife directly on someone's neck, but what would be the point of that! ?
Therefore, after preliminary negotiations, the several major ninja villages completely abandoned the Hidden Mist Village.

That huge ninja coalition was directly formed.

The four major ninja villages will work together in full force, and each ninja village will send out at least ten thousand troops, especially the Hidden Leaf Village, which, with almost no damage and without sending the elderly, the weak, and the sick to fight, can recruit fifteen thousand troops.

The battle circle is surrounding us openly.

It was almost the moment when the four major ninja villages took joint action.

The most accurate information was obtained from Guangyin Village.

But even so.

Inside the ninja village, no one showed any fear. As long as Menma was there and his invincible golden body was not broken, the belief in victory of thousands of light ninjas would always exist.

Not to mention the previous battle, Menma gave them a shot of morale! ?
The Light Ninjas are now the most enthusiastic ones.

In the minds of the light ninjas, their own Lord Tenkage is the first Hokage of the former Konohagakure Village, a transcendent existence who can lead them to dominate an era.

Not to mention that the five great nations today are almost all defeated by their own Tenkage-sama and their own ninja villages, so what is there to worry about? ?
Especially when this news came. The top leaders of their own ninja village did not show any confusion or anxiety. Such a stable atmosphere further strengthened the confidence of the lower-level light ninjas. This proved that the top leaders of their own ninja village, headed by Lord Menma, did not worry about the attack of the four major countries.

Isn't victory a foregone conclusion?!
In fact, it was just as these low-level light ninjas had expected.

Regarding the so-called coalition of four nations.

There is really no need to worry about facial numbness.

In that exclusive office, Yugao, Karin, Fu, Suigetsu, Muku, Shibuki, Jun and others gathered together, each of them looked relaxed. Even Jun, who was still a little doubtful and worried about Menma at the beginning, had no worries after experiencing the previous battle, especially after personally experiencing that Menma was really able to defeat the Third Tsuchikage, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, and the Iwagakure named Huang Tu who could compete with Fu.

This former quasi-senior high-ranking official of Takigakure Village, who had always been rational, was also the Taki-nin most trusted by Elder Mizuno Satoru. At this moment, he was just like the ordinary Light-nins at the lower level. His heart was filled with fanatical admiration for Menma.

Just like how much the ninjas of Konohagakure trusted the first Hokage back then.

Among the Light Ninjas now, from top to bottom, no one will doubt Menma anymore. Those Light Ninjas who were previously shaken or even planned to become spies or agents for the enemy's ninja village have long since changed their ways.

Face numb.

From now on, it is their heaven!!!
"Haha, although we have long anticipated this day, it has come so quickly. It seems that the great powers have made up their minds."

Menma casually threw the piece of white paper in his hand, which recorded the different actions of the four major ninja villages, onto the table and said with a faint smile.

To put it bluntly, Menma can now really challenge the entire ninja world single-handedly. This is not only a crushing victory in terms of strength, but also in terms of chakra consumption. Menma has almost an inexhaustible supply of chakra.

The human wave tactic is meaningless when it comes to Menma.

The more people there are, the easier it is to clean the facial mask.

In the case of large concentration, a few large spiral wheel techniques can directly clear the battlefield. If that is not enough, Menma can definitely release them in batches.

Chakra consumption! ?

What is that question!?

Menma never had to worry about that.

"Those people in Konoha are really a bunch of untrustworthy bastards. They reached an agreement less than a few months ago, and they immediately tore it up, sneaked into our ninja village, and now they want to start a war. This is the once-great ninja village."

At the first seat on the left, Xianglin pushed up her black-framed glasses and said sarcastically with a look of disdain.

Karin has always had a very strong filter when looking at the issues of the Hidden Leaf Village. For Karin, anyone and anything related to Konoha is given a double negative BUFF.

After all, Konoha was Menma's former 'hometown'?

Who would have thought that Menma would be the son of the Fourth Hokage?
After this series of things are arranged, it is as sarcastic as possible.

"Menma, this time, are we going to split our forces to fight against these major ninja villages like before?"

Shibuki, who was the first person on the right, turned his head to look at Menma who was sitting on the main seat and asked with a slightly solemn and inquiring look.

Although he was very confident, it was ultimately a joint effort of the four major countries. Shibuki felt that he still needed to be more cautious and meticulous in dealing with each aspect.

Their Hikari Village was previously the result of the merger of two small and medium-sized ninja villages. The wars before and after were all properly arranged by Menma, and their strength was strong enough. Otherwise, if there was any more consumption, the Hikari Village would have been completely wiped out.

"Well, there is no need to split up our forces this time. Judging from the current situation, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Konohagakure are likely to join forces directly. If they are still separated, it will give us the opportunity to defeat them one by one. The enemy will not make such a mistake. The only one that will act alone is the Sand Village. This is also the result of geographical restrictions. We only need to further clear up the remaining Mist Ninja problem in the south, and then wait for their arrival."

Menma said, shaking his head slightly.

Now is the time when the four major countries have just reached an agreement, and the troops of the four major ninja villages have just begun to gather. This kind of large-scale ninja army combat cannot be recruited in two or three days.

Therefore, Menma felt that there was no need to worry at all. He might as well take advantage of this time to clear out the remaining Mist Ninjas in the southern part of River Country. Kill whoever he could, capture whoever he could. In short, he wanted to completely destroy the combat power of the Hidden Mist Village as much as possible.

In the plan before Menma.

While other ninja villages were intimidated by various pressures and would not easily send out troops, Menma planned to swallow up the Hidden Mist Village first, and then control the vast land area from the River Country to the Water Country, and then plan to attack other ninja villages in the country.

The reason why the pace was slowed down was not because Menma was not strong enough, but because the strength and foundation of the Hikari Village were not enough.

Menma can take on the entire ninja world by himself, but can he control the entire ninja world by himself?!

the answer is negative.

Unless he comes up with a method similar to Kaguya's use of Infinite Tsukuyomi to mass-produce White Zetsu.

Menma is so strong that he can easily destroy a planet by himself.

If he wants to govern a country, a planet, and billions of people, he will need many excellent and loyal subordinates.

On this basis.

It would be perfect if there was less killing.

Under the unification plan, hatred will certainly disappear slowly with the passage of time. A peaceful, stable and happy life can make human beings forget the sadness and pain of the past. However, the less killing and the less blood shed, the shorter this process can be.

This is also why in the later stages of the war.

Menma has always emphasized the need to capture more Mist and Rock Ninjas as prisoners, in order to lay a solid foundation for future rule. To guard these prisoners and if he wants to incite them to rebel, a large number of people will also be needed.

Honestly.

Menma really doesn't want to move too fast, because it's too easy to get hurt.

It's just that the current situation forces us to do so.

Menma is no choice.

That being the case.

That is to try to catch them all in one swoop. Giving the four major countries more time to prepare would be a favorable option, allowing them to actively concentrate all their forces, and then Menma can take advantage of the situation to directly wipe out the enemy.

The subsequent governance issues can only be considered later.

After all, as the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes, so you can only make temporary adjustments yourself. Fortunately, Menma already has sufficient experience in this regard and is not afraid of these accidents.
