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

Chapter 240 Letter from Black Zetsu
"Tsk, what Akatsuki organization?"

"They're all a bunch of trash."

Among the stone men surrounded by countless black terracotta warriors, a man's disdainful mutterings were heard from a luxurious sedan chair lifted by thirty-six terracotta warriors.

Huang Quan, dressed in a white robe, was lying in a soft and comfortable sedan chair.

Originally, he thought that Lord Wangliang had been sealed for a thousand years. Even if he had unprecedented strength a thousand years ago, it is difficult for him to display it now.

For this purpose, he specifically approached the Akatsuki organization and asked them to work together.

After all, we have to start from the Bear Country, and the first place we face is Konoha in the Fire Country.

Who knew that the first ninja village famous in the ninja world was a silver-like wax spear head.

When faced with the Terracotta Army, they only dared to send people to watch nearby and did not dare to step forward to engage in conflict with the Terracotta Army.

That's it?

Is this what Konoha, which won four Ninja World Wars, has become?
While Huang Quan felt disdain for Konoha, he also felt contempt for many forces in the ninja world.

After all, if they can be defeated by this kind of stuff, then the other ninja villages can be defeated as well.

Thinking of this, Huang Quan couldn't help but feel happy.

As for the cooperation with Akatsuki?
Are you kidding me?
I told Akatsuki about my marching route, but who knew that those two bastards from Akatsuki didn't even show up.

Can I blame myself for this?

And help yourself?
Does my army of one hundred thousand need help from those losers of Akatsuki?
"Lord Huang Quan, the border of the Fire Country is ahead."

"As long as we get past that, we'll enter the Land of Rain."

A man in a white robe and blue hair beside Huang Quan spoke respectfully.

Not all of Huang Quan's men are Terracotta Warriors. To be precise, he only has four men.

Because these 100,000 terracotta warriors are only obeying the orders of the evil spirits that are now living in his body via his physical body.

"Well, I see."

"According to the plan, you will set off first and go to the Land of Demons to capture this generation of miko."

Huang Quan nodded slightly.

In his opinion, as long as he left the Fire Nation, he would have no rivals.

The war three years ago caused the strength of all countries to decline, and only Konoha, the victorious country, retained considerable strength.

Now even Konoha is wary of him, so other countries naturally don’t need to care.

And now Huang Quan has no intention of provoking Konoha.

After all, the resurrection of the monsters is the top priority.

If we provoke Konoha just for some inexplicable reasons, it will only cause more trouble.

Now that Konoha has let me go, I will not provoke or interfere with anyone along the way.

It is the best option for Huang Quan for both parties to turn a blind eye to each other.

"Yes, Lord Huang Quan."

The subordinate respectfully takes his leave.

-

The Hidden Rain Village in the Land of Rain
The rain was drizzling down, and Payne looked at the dark clouds above his head, with no expression on his calm face.

But his slightly clenched palms seemed to reveal an inexplicable meaning.

"Pen..."

Xiaonan stood behind the man and sighed softly.

The news of Kakuzu and Feiton's death has come.

Not only did these two people fail to successfully join up with Huang Quan's 100,000 Terracotta Warriors, but because of Pain's orders, they encountered Konoha's pursuit troops on their way forward.

If not for this, with Kakuzu's nearly a hundred years of experience, he might still have a chance of survival.

Of course, Konan couldn't possibly blame Pein.

"What now?"

"Kakuzu and Hidan are dead. The Hokage seemed to have ignored the Terracotta Army of Yomiuri and allowed them to run rampant across the Land of Fire."

“We’ll soon be in the Rain Country.

Xiaonan's words were filled with a hint of helplessness.

Bai Jue has already found out how many Terracotta Warriors there are in Huangquan.

One hundred thousand.

This is a terrifying number.

If we randomly pick out any of the five major ninja villages, there are probably only about 20,000 combat-capable ninjas.

And this is the richest Konoha and the most militaristic Kumogakure.

As for the other three kingdoms of earth, water, and wind, if we have to pick out 20,000 ninjas, we may have to include ninja trainees and newly graduated Genin.

"Humph, this time I underestimated this Hokage."

"I didn't expect that she would ignore the 100,000 troops in the territory and deal with Hidan and Kakuzu."

"But, just..."

Before Pain could finish his words, a White Zetsu appeared from the corner and interrupted him.

"Boss, this is the news from the Hidden Cloud Village."

The White Zetsu hurriedly handed the letter in his hand to Pain.

Payne frowned slightly when he saw this.

Hidden Cloud Village?
Is it that guy Jue?
Payne naturally knew that Zetsu was impersonating the 'Raikage courtier' at the moment.

For Pain, it is interesting to be able to influence the decision of Kumogakure.

But even if it has no impact, so what?

Looking at the letter in my hand.

From Payne himself.

Was this sent by Jue?

Considering that Zetsu had made great contributions to the Akatsuki organization, Pain opened the letter in his hand.

Dear Payne:

I already know what happened in the Fire Nation.

Huang Quan led 100,000 terracotta soldiers across the Land of Fire, but the Hokage ignored him and still sent people to hunt down Hidan and Kakuzu.

This decision is unexpected, but also reasonable.

The five great countries have a long history, and there must be records of the Terracotta Warriors.

Now that the Terracotta Warriors have been revived, their destination is directly the Kingdom of Ghosts.

Although this journey passes through the Rain Country, it is destined to be like the Fire Country, without any harm.

What's more, the boss had an agreement with Huang Quan before, so he failed.

But Huang Quan is eager to resurrect the monsters, so he will definitely not cause any more trouble.

And if the Terracotta Army were to cross the Rain Kingdom and enter the Earth Kingdom, then these 100,000-strong army would be only one step away from the Ghost Kingdom.

At that time, the one who was most anxious was not us but the Third Tsuchikage, Nendoroid Ohnoki.

The Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Ghosts are very close to each other. Once the monsters are resurrected, the Kingdom of Earth will be the first to face the monsters' attack.

It is nothing but a pipe dream to use the power of the Land Kingdom alone to fight against the monsters and their troops.

At that time, the Tsuchikage will definitely ask the Hokage for help.

If the Hokage still ignores me, I can convince the Raikage to start the Five Kage Summit.

Forcing the Hokage to join the battle.

After all, once the monsters and demons come out, they will definitely target the entire ninja world.

I also hope that the boss will temporarily postpone the action of hunting down the Kazekage, and do his best to promote the Five Kage talks in the name of Salamander Hanzo.

At that time, the power of the five major ninja villages will be used to fight against the monsters and both sides will suffer losses.

At that time, the snipe and the clam were fighting, and the fisherman benefited.

The Kazekage was young and lacked experience, and what's more, Chiyo was already dead, so Ebizo's plan was not worth mentioning.

Under the pressure of justice, we will certainly do our best to promote the unity of the ninja coalition.

At that time, the Tsuchikage, Wind Kage, Raikage and Amegakure were a faction. As for the Mizukage, he was a wandering jinchūriki before he took office and was tired of such things. The promotion of Mizukage was just a forced move.

With four votes, the Mizukage has a 70% chance of going with the flow.

What's more, there is a man named Yuanshi in Wuying Village. Although he is old, he is a rare strategic talent and has survived since the establishment of Wuyin Village.

I know very well that no eggs will remain intact when the nest is overturned.

At that time, if the Hokage did not want to make enemies with the entire ninja world, he could only agree to the alliance.

Use the power of the five major ninja villages to fight against 100,000 terracotta warriors.

Borrow the Terracotta Warriors to weaken the Ninja Village again, and seal the monsters in the Ninja Village. Afterwards, we can kill the two Jinchūriki, the Wind Shadow and the Water Shadow, on their way back to the village.

I hope the boss will think about it and not act on impulse.

Although this plan makes the boss bow his head temporarily in front of Huang Quan, it is for the sake of our great cause that he endures.

According to legend, the Sage of Six Paths once set an example for world peace by using his physical body to help civilians build bridges and roads without using chakra.

Now the boss possesses the eyes of a sage, and he works for the peace of the world, to end the chaos in the ninja world, and for the survival of the people.

Even though God has the appearance of a furious diamond, he also has compassion for the world.

Please put aside the majesty of God for a moment and look at the world with compassion.

I also know that the boss is invincible, but if we can more easily weaken the five major ninja villages while capturing the One-Tail and the Six-Tail, we can also disrupt Huang Quan's wolf ambition to resurrect the monsters.

Kill three birds with one stone, why not do it.

Please consider this.

No, stay.

……

Looking at the letter in his hand, Payne's eyes wrinkled slightly.

This……

"Xiao Nan, take a look."

Payne handed the letter addressed to him to Xiaonan.

Xiaonan took it and finished reading it quickly, with a strange look in his eyes.

This is amazing, why didn’t I realize that I had this kind of brain before?

"Paine, you are absolutely right."

After reading the letter in her hand, Xiaonan stood on Jue's side without hesitation.

Asking the Tsuchikage to ask the Hokage for help in facing the threat of the resurrection of the monster is something that almost does not require the Akatsuki organization to intervene.

The commotion over the Terracotta Warriors was so big that almost everyone in the five major ninja villages knew about it. Now there is no movement, just because people want to see how the young Hokage will handle it.

Now that the Terracotta Army is about to cross the border of the Land of Fire, the most anxious person is not the Hokage, nor their Rain Village, but the Tsuchikage.

Once the monsters are resurrected in the Land of Ghosts, the Land of Earth will be the first to bear the brunt.

With the Tsuchikage asking for help from Konoha, as long as Zetsu succeeds in convincing the current Fifth Raikage, the formation of the Allied Ninja Forces seems to be a piece of cake.

Use the power of monsters to weaken the five major ninja villages.

As for whether the monsters can be defeated?
Who cares about this?

Anyway, they finally intercepted the Kazekage and the Mizukage on their way back and captured the two Jinchūriki in one fell swoop.

Regardless of victory or defeat, it will be most beneficial to the Akatsuki organization.

Even if Wuliang defeated the five major ninja villages, he must have been in insufficient condition at that time.

At most, let Payne clean up the mess.

"That's exactly what I meant."

"Jue's plan is good. We can consider his opinion if we have anything in the future."

Payne nodded slightly.

He wanted to reject Jue's proposal.

But in the end, Zetsu used the example of the Six Paths Sage to remind Pain that the Six Paths Sage was able to humble himself and personally help civilians build bridges and roads, and now you and the Six Paths Sage have the same eyes.

Your mindset needs to be more open like the Sage of Six Paths.

Pain, who claims to be the second Sage of Six Paths, naturally would not admit that his vision is worse than that of the Sage of Six Paths.

"Where are Itachi and the others?"

Pain looked at White Zetsu who was waiting for orders on the side.

"We're almost at the Sand Village."

White Zetsu responded.

"Tell them that the operation is terminated and they are to return to Yuyin immediately."

-

The border between the Fire Kingdom and the Rain Kingdom

Tsunade, dressed in military uniform, crossed her arms and watched the huge army marching in an orderly manner towards the northwest in front of her.

"Terracotta Warriors?"

As the princess of the Senju family, she had some impression of this.

The Senju clan is a large clan that has been passed down for thousands of years. Even though it is now in decline, it still has records of various strange stories and events in history.

This Terracotta Warrior was once told to my mother as a bedtime story when I was a child.

I just didn’t expect that the Terracotta Warriors that my mother described would actually appear before my eyes, although I thought it was just a novel story like Dragon Quest.

"Does the Hokage have any instructions?"

Tsunade looked at Shizune beside her.

And Shizune, who was also dressed in military uniform, shook her head.

"No."

Tsunade's eyes narrowed slightly when she heard that.

no……

It won't be long.

No matter what happens in the Rain Country, that old immortal Ohnoki will definitely not sit still.

As an ally of Iwagakure, Konoha will definitely drag down Konoha and even the entire ninja world even if the other side cannot defeat the Terracotta Army.

"Lady Tsunade, all these stone men need to leave."

"Should we prepare to go back?"

Shizune looked at Tsunade curiously.

After being away from the village for several days, she still missed the red-haired junior sister Karin.

After all, she's pretty cute on weekdays.

"No need. Just wait. New orders will come in a few days."

Tsunade shook her head and turned back toward the camp.

Even if I return to Konoha, I have to come here again, and it will take more than half a month to go back and forth.

She had no interest in walking a few more steps, so she might as well just wait here for the latest orders.

The fact is just as Tsunade expected. Sakura, who is thousands of miles away, received an urgent communication from the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki.

In a room full of extremes, four display screens were lit up in front of Sakura.

One of the display screens was lighting up, showing the old man Ohnoki and the Five-Tails Jinchuriki who he had met once before in the Snow Country.

"Hokage-sama, long time no see."

Sakura, wearing the Hokage robe, sat in her seat, staring absentmindedly at the screen in front of her.

Like the Tsuchikage, Kakashi stood behind Sakura.

"Ah."

Faced with Sakura's coldness, Oonoki looked slightly unhappy.

He already knew the attitude of this Hokage towards Huang Tu and others.

But this is understandable. After all, it is impossible to expect the Iwagakure Village to be nice to Konoha when they are so distant with it.

But now that he needed help from others, he had to suppress his unhappiness.

"Hokage, do you know that the ninja world is in danger now?"

Looking at the serious expression on the Tsuchikage's face on the screen, Sakura leaned back in her chair with her arms folded across her chest, and said unhappily:

"What's the matter with the ninja world? Don't make a fuss about it, old man."

Sakura naturally knew why Ōnoki came.

I just want to explain the Terracotta Warriors incident.

But they didn’t mention it before. Now that the Terracotta Warriors have left the Fire Kingdom and are about to arrive in the Earth Kingdom, they came here in a hurry.

In fact, Sakura was also surprised about this.

She didn't expect that Payne, who was so arrogant, would ignore the Terracotta Warriors and let these 100,000 troops cross the country just like herself.

You know, although Payne is arrogant, his standards are still very high.

Even if Pain can't deal with the Terracotta Warriors, they can't expect to cross the Rain Country so easily.

With a Super Shinra Tensei and Chibaku Tensei, it would be good if 20,000 of the 100,000 Terracotta Warriors could leave the Rain Country.
