Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 161 No!

The Raikage never believed in fate, but at this moment he seemed to have no choice but to believe it.

We are all human beings, born into this world from our mother's womb, so why do all kinds of geniuses inexplicably emerge in Konoha?

Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara, Senju Tobirama, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Namikaze Minato, Hatake Sakumo, the three ninjas...

Now, there is a genius who is less than thirteen years old and can defeat him who has practiced for more than forty years.

His usually fiery personality was unexpectedly calm at this moment of death.

In this world, power is the absolute truth.

This was what his father told him.

He was the Sandaime Raikage back then, but his father died among the Ten Thousand Rock Villages.

The Raikage felt that his father's power was not strong enough.

So he continued to practice, practice, and practice.

His speed was unmatched, and later, he met a man.

Minato Namikaze of Konoha.

This guy is very strong. Even if he and Bi attack together, they can't do anything to the other person.

Later this person also died, and it was said that he died at the hands of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

This further strengthened the Raikage's belief that power is truth.

But now...

The Raikage felt his unconscious chest.

I feel like I'm going to die too. Is it because I don't have enough strength?

Strength is truth, but I just want to fill the stomachs of the people of the Land of Thunder.

As a result, I am about to die. If power is truth, then everything I have done is wrong, right?

The boundary between life and death is short and long, it is clearly just a moment, and the Raikage thought a lot at this moment.

I thought about things that I normally wouldn't even think about.

The burden of being a shadow had been weighing on him for a while, but now he seemed to be able to let it go and entrust everything to Tutai and his brother...

Bi, from now on, Kumogakure will be handed over to you...

Using the last bit of his strength, he slowly raised his blood-stained hand and made a gesture...

retreat!

-

The blood carried by the air wave mixed with snowflakes and stained Sakura's face. Her green eyes stared at the man lying on the ground in front of her without emotion.

The Raikage's chest collapsed instantly under Sakura's full-strength punch, and the entire ground around him almost shattered into pieces with the punch as the center.

But what surprised Sakura was that in his last moments, the Raikage actually raised his forearm and made a gesture that Sakura could not understand.

"Big Brother!!!"

A deafening and crazy roar sounded in the distance, and the Eight-Tails rushed towards Sakura recklessly!

The huge body crushed the ground along the way, without paying any attention to the attacks from Kakashi and Mei Terumi!

Looking at the Eight-Tails rushing towards her, Sakura stood up calmly, turned her wrist, and aimed a kunai at the dead Raikage.

This action immediately stopped the Eight-Tails in its tracks.

It also made everyone present, including Uchiha Obito, feel a chill in their hearts.

The Raikage was already dead, but Sakura still took him hostage. This kind of unscrupulous behavior was something that almost no one expected.

Orochimaru appreciated this.

Taking advantage of the so-called totally insignificant feelings to maximize benefits is quite a bit of his style, and she is worthy of being his junior sister.

"you……"

Eight-Tails...Kirabi looked at the frosty little girl with a fierce look in his eyes, and the anger in his heart made his chest heave.

How can people...

How could a person be so shameless? Killing the other person was not enough, but he actually used his eldest brother's body to threaten himself?

The sudden death of the Raikage caused both sides to stop fighting at the same time, and both sides stood in their respective camps tacitly.

Sakura, Jiraiya, Kakashi, Mei Terumi.

Killer Bee, Orochimaru, Uchiha Obito.

This made Sakura feel a little pain in her heart.

No, did you discuss this?
Jiraiya, when you and Orochimaru passed by each other just now, you and Kakashi should have beaten him together!

Sakura felt like she didn't fit in with this world. She said she was a ninja who would do anything to achieve her goals, but how could she do things more honestly than her?

This made Sakura, who threatened Killer Bee with the Raikage's body, feel very guilty.

That's weird...

There's no guilt involved.

"Tell me, what do you want in exchange for returning my brother to me?"

Killer Bee's voice came out of the mouth of the Eight-Tails. The suppressed rage and unspeakable sorrow in his heart were so heartbreaking that anyone who heard it would cry.

"Now, take your people back to the Land of Thunder immediately."

"You are not allowed to set foot outside the Land of Lightning for the rest of your life, and you must immediately submit your letter of surrender to Konoha."

"Then the Land of Lightning must apologize and compensate for this war."

Sakura played with the kunai in her hand, her emerald eyes nonchalant.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to take this opportunity to capture the Eight-Tails.

But it's a bit difficult.

No matter how stupid Uchiha Obito was, he would not sit idly by and watch the Eight-Tails being taken away by Konoha.

Moreover, none of them knew how to perform the Four Symbols Seal.

And except for Sakura herself who was under the Yin Seal, the chakras of Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Mei Terumi have all obviously dropped significantly.

Although it still has the strength to fight, it is obviously a bit risky to take down the Eight-Tails with the help of Orochimaru and Uchiha Obito.

"it is good!"

"This is impossible!"

Two completely opposite voices came out of Killer Bee and Uchiha Obito's mouths.

"Whoever is in charge, you better answer quickly."

Sakura said impatiently seeing this.

"I'm in charge. I agreed."

Killer Bee spoke while suppressing his anger towards Uchiha Obito.

"Yabi, you and I can definitely defeat the people in front of us together. Then we can take back the body of the Raikage and avenge him!"

Uchiha Obito frowned and looked at the Eight-Tails beside him.

He miscalculated. He didn't expect Sakura to be so shameless as to threaten the Eight-Tails with the corpse of the Raikage.

The Eight-Tails' chest was breathing heavily, and he ignored Uchiha Obito, his eyes fixed on the Raikage under Sakura's kunai.

That gesture is retreat...

This is a common signal used within Yunyin.

"Okay, we promise you."

A figure walked out from the wind and snow, and everyone couldn't help but look sideways.

The man who came was dressed in Kumogakure ninja uniform, his face looked weathered and a little tired, and the bloodshot in his eyes showed the owner's grief.

"Uncle Tutai!"

Seeing the person coming, Kirabi seemed to have found his backbone.

The person who came was not only a high-ranking Raikage courtier in the Hidden Cloud Village, but also a man who watched the Raikage grow up, and the most prestigious person in the Hidden Cloud Village.

Now that the Raikage has died in battle, he has the most say in the Hidden Cloud Village!
"You!" Uchiha Obito couldn't help but get furious when he saw the person coming.

Others don’t know what’s going on, but doesn’t he know what’s going on?
This guy actually goes against my opinion!
But at this moment, Uchiha Obito could only suppress his dissatisfaction and watch what Zetsu was going to do.

'Dodai' ignored Uchiha Obito's murderous look, but walked up to the Eight-Tails and gently patted his tentacles.

This blow almost broke down Kirabi's psychological defenses.

Now that his eldest brother has died in battle, Uncle Tutai is the person he trusts the most!
'Dodai' looked at the huge Eight-Tails in front of him, a hint of understanding hidden in his sad eyes, and then he turned to look at the people of Konoha.

The platform, which was full of sadness just now, seemed to have turned into a ruthless politician in an instant.

"We retreat and pay compensation, okay."

"But Konoha must open up the resource channel!"

"The people of the Land of Thunder cannot endure such a life again!"

Sakura raised her eyebrows slightly as she listened to the other person's words.

This guy doesn't appear in many scenes in the original work, and Sakura only knows him as a person who pays attention to the overall situation. But after experiencing what happened to Nozomi, Sakura no longer looks down on anyone.

It’s not impossible to consider the other party’s conditions, after all, we can talk about it.

It’s not that I can’t give you food. I won’t sell a piece of bread to you for 500,000, but I can sell it to you for 50,000, right?
I am such a philanthropist~~~
Sakura was about to speak, but Jiraiya stood up and said loudly:

"can!"

Sakura looked at Jiraiya and her mouth twitched, then she added:
"In three days, we will discuss this here, and once the result is known, we will immediately return the Raikage."

Kirabi couldn't help but become restless after hearing this.

Three days, three days!
Who knows what Konoha will do to my brother in these three days!
But even though he was furious, Kirabi had no choice.

The Two-Tails was captured and the Raikage was killed in battle. Previously, Konoha had been suppressed both in frontal combat and guerrilla warfare.

In this situation, Yunyin no longer had any ability to fight back.

Under Killer Bee's murderous gaze, Sakura took out a small scroll from her ninja tool bag and put the Raikage's body into it in front of Killer Bee.

"Yes, three days later at noon, right here."

Sakura waved the scroll in her hand at Killer Bee.

"Okay, I hope you can come as promised then."

'Dodai' looked at Sakura and spoke in a deep voice.

After saying that, he turned around and looked at the Eight-Tailed Fox in front of him and sighed:

"Bi, cancel the Tailed Beast transformation."

Killer Bee gritted his teeth, looked at the people of Konoha not far away, then glanced at the "earthen platform" beside him, and silently transformed from the dozens of meters tall behemoth into a human form.

"let's go."

With one last look at the 'earth platform', Sakura turned and left.

If this "earth platform" had not died, it is estimated that Yunyin would have been able to recover within twenty years.

We have to find a chance to kill him.

……

Konoha Tent
"Sakura!"

Ino looked at Sakura and the others who were walking towards her not far away and was about to go forward, but someone was faster than her.

"Sakura!"

I saw a red figure rushing past her, and the airflow brought by that person directly messed up her hair.

Eh?
No!

Why does this scene seem familiar?

Damn it!
Now that Naruto is not here, there is another person competing with her for Sakura!
Ino gritted her teeth and rushed forward viciously.

Sakura only felt a red unidentified object rushing towards her. She opened her arms almost subconsciously and was hit by Karin.

"Alala, the relationship is really good~~~"

Mei Terumi narrowed her eyes and looked at the scene in front of her.

This pink-haired girl who does things to the end of the odds actually has someone who is so attached to her.

Was this intentional or accidental?

After experiencing the scene where Sakura used the Raikage's corpse as a bargaining chip, Mei Terumi no longer believed that the seemingly harmless pink-haired girl next to her was a kind-hearted person.

But Kakashi beside her can arouse her interest more~~
In every sense.

Thousands of Konoha ninjas surrounded Sakura and her group. Their eyes were suppressed yet excited, and the emotions that could not be suppressed in their hearts revealed their throbbing hearts.

Among them were many injured people, wrapped in white bandages oozing blood, and leaning on crutches, who came here with the help of medical staff to greet everyone.

Jiraiya looked at this familiar scene as if he was recalling the moment when Konoha was victorious.

"Everyone, we won."

It was just seven words, but it made people's emotions burst out at that moment.

This war only lasted for two or three months, but no one liked the battlefield that was like a meat grinder.

Many of them sacrificed their companions and brothers, and they themselves were seriously injured in the war.

They cried with joy. They had once again defended Konoha and the Land of Fire.

But more people cheered, and the joy of victory filled the sky above the Konoha camp along with everyone's cheers, as if even the bone-chilling wind and snow no longer seemed so cold.

Sasuke squeezed in the crowd and looked at Sakura who was standing next to Jiraiya. His black eyes could not accommodate anyone else.

He wanted to go up and ask Sakura if she was hurt, but this was obviously not a good time.

Shikamaru stood next to Sasuke and couldn't help but glance at the other man.

Sasuke's gaze was too obvious, even he, an outsider, could feel it.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Excellent people often have an unconscious charm that makes everyone want to stand by his side.

But this is too troublesome. I hope Sakura won't target me in the future.

I just want to be an ordinary ninja quietly.

-

Urgent report!

Hokage Building
Hokage's Office

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the information sent back from the front line and couldn't help but smile.

it is good!
OK!

Not long after Sakura, Karin and Ino arrived at the front line, they disintegrated the Kumogakure guerrilla tactics, and then in the decisive battle, Sakura even killed the Raikage with her own hands!
The new seedling of Konoha back then has now become an important branch of Konoha!
"Somebody come!"

"Pass the order on, the Frost Country has won a great victory on the front line!"

"The whole village celebrates for three days!"

"Send negotiators to the Frost Kingdom immediately!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted, giving orders quickly.

At this moment, a leisurely old man pushed open the door of his office and happened to hear Sarutobi Hiruzen's order.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw the person coming, the joy in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"Danzo, why are you here?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo Shimura in front of him, and the smile on his face immediately calmed down.

Previously, due to Danzo Shimura’s mistakes, there were heavy casualties on the front line of River Country. This account cannot be resolved by simply suspending Danzo Shimura.

When everything is settled, rewards will be given according to merit and punishment will be given according to crime.

"Hiruzen."

Shimura Danzo's brows were no longer as confident as before, but instead concealed an unfathomable gloom.

"I think……"

"no!"
