Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 100 Four-tailed Jinchūriki! (Subscribe for monthly tickets)

After dinner, Shengshu tactfully went to play with his friends.

Xingxia Xiu and Tsunade went out and walked on the snow.

"How's the situation at the front?"

Xingxia Xiu asked.

During this period, he concentrated on practicing and did not care too much about the situation in the Rain Country.

Tsunade frowned and said, "The scale of the battle with the Iwagakure Village has not escalated. Since then, both sides have maintained a certain degree of restraint."

"But the battles between the teams are going to be more intense."

"At times like these, it's often the power of the elite that's being competed against."

"In the River Country, the Rain Ninjas acted very quickly, while the Sand Village was unexpectedly not very active. They should have taken over 90% of the River Country by now."

Xingxia Xiu couldn't help but say after hearing this: "It seems that after the New Year, the Sand Village will also invade the Rain Country."

Tsunade was a smart person and understood immediately: "You mean, the Sand Village will directly attack the Rain Village?"

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "If the Sand Village uses all its strength in the River Country, it will be equivalent to facing the main force of the Rain Village. If a small force attacks the Rain Village, we and the Rock Village will not stand by and watch. At that time, Hanzo will not really give up the Rain Country and will definitely withdraw some of his strength from the River Country."

Tsunade nodded after hearing this: "In this case, a war is inevitable after the New Year."

"Hanzo against three alone?"

"Is it possible that he would abandon the Rain Kingdom and retreat into the River Kingdom?"

Xingxia Xiu laughed and said, "That's possible, but he's a demigod!"

"Besides, we've been rooted in the Rain Country for so many years, and we can't just give it up."

"And even if he gave up the Rain Kingdom, the war wouldn't stop."

Will everything be fine if Hanzo retreats to the River Kingdom?
impossible!
The Sand Village won't allow it, and Konoha won't allow it either.

For now, a weak, chaotic, and non-threatening Rain Country and Rain Village are the most suitable for Konoha, Iwagakure, and Sand Village.

The same would apply if Hanzo moved the Rain Village to the River Kingdom.

The Rain Country will inevitably become the focus of competition.

It is not necessary to take it all, but you must occupy a part of it.

Otherwise, the next war will have no buffer zone and will break out directly in the country, causing enormous destructive power.

Just look at the Rain Country today.

In a short period of time, the impact was huge, with numerous villages destroyed and civilians displaced.

"It seems that this war is unlikely to stop in the short term."

"But these are things that the big guys need to consider."

Tsunade changed the subject and asked, "How's your senjutsu training going?"

Xingxiaxiu stopped and lowered her eyes.

Tsunade took two steps and stopped, then looked back in surprise: Could it be that he has already mastered it?
Two seconds later, when Xing Xiaxiu opened his eyes, a facial mask appeared on his face and his skin changed rapidly.

"It's really been accomplished!"

"This mask is the same as my grandfather's, except..."

After the surprise, Tsunade frowned: "Your skin."

"Your skin..."

Xingxia Xiu smiled and said, "This is because your grasp of the immortal arts is somewhat poor, so you are greatly affected by natural energy."

Tsunade suddenly realized and said, "This is similar to the frog transformation at Myoboku Mountain."

Xing Xiaxiu nodded: "Yes, the different assimilation situations are probably related to the method of cultivation."

"Jiraiya must have used something from Mount Myōboku to assist him in practicing Sage Mode."

Of course, this was just his guess.

Tsunade said: "That guy Jiraiya still hasn't fully mastered the Sage Mode."

"Also, from what he said, the Sage Mode doesn't last long. It requires the cooperation of the Sages of Myoboku Mountain."

"You must master the basics of the Sealing Technique as soon as possible. After the war is over, I will teach you the Yin Seal."

"If you can master it, it should significantly increase the duration of Sage Mode."

Xing Xiaxiu laughed and said, "Then I won't be polite."

Tsunade shook her head: "This was agreed upon before."

Two hours later, Xingxia Xiu sent Tsunade home.

On the first day of the new year, cultivation still cannot stop.

Xing Xiaxiu went home to study the sealing technique, while his clones were sent out to practice according to the plan.

In the blink of an eye, it was January 37rd, the 1th year of Konoha.

Tsunade left Konoha and returned to the battlefield.

After bidding farewell to Tsunade, Hoshita Hide returned home to continue studying sealing techniques.

Before I knew it, it was evening and a new status was refreshed.

Xing Xiaxiu, who was awakened, looked at the status bar.

Current status: Like a wolf or a tiger
Note: Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger. At this age, you are extremely hungry and thirsty.

Refresh countdown: 167:59:58
Xingxiaxiu's face is dark.

Damn it, I'm only seventeen!

Also, I'm a real man! Out of sight, out of mind.

Xing Xiaxiu looked at the solidified state.

[Swordsmanship Expert], [Immune to All Poisons], [Concentrated], [Calling a Stag a Horse], there are only four of them, and there is still a long way to go.

"Seven days is still too short. If it lasts longer, the chances of solidification will be greater."

Sighing inwardly, Xingxiaxiu withdrew his gaze and was about to take a rest, but his ears couldn't help but twitch.

He stood up and looked towards the window, and sure enough, he saw a figure outside.

Opening the window, Aburame Ryoma hurriedly said: "Captain, it's an urgent mission. Lord Danzo orders you to go to the Rain Country battlefield immediately."

Xing Xiaxiu raised an eyebrow: "Did they say what the mission was?"

Aburame Ryoma shook his head: "Captain, you will understand when you reach the front lines."

Xingxia Xiu nodded and said, "You go back and report to Master Danzo, and I will set off immediately."

"understand!"

Nodding, Aburame Ryoma disappeared.

Xingxia Xiu turned around and packed his things.

In less than five minutes he was out of the house.

At dawn, Xingxiaxiu enters the land of rain.

Without any rest, he rushed to Konoha's base in the Land of Rain and met the commander Mito Kado En.

When Mitomon Yan saw Xingxia Xiu, he immediately asked, "Do you need to rest?"

Xingxia Xiu said: "I don't know what the mission is yet, so I can't tell."

Mitomon En said in a deep voice: "The Four-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure has appeared on the battlefield. He is very difficult to deal with. Jiraiya and his men were unable to completely suppress him, causing us to suffer heavy losses."

The Four-Tails Jinchūriki!
Xing Xiaxiu raised her eyebrows slightly under the mask. At this time, Lao Zi should be in his twenties?
but.

A bold idea came to Xing Xiaxiu's mind, and he immediately said, "Please give me two hours."

Mitomon Yan nodded: "Okay, you go and rest first!"

After leaving the tent, Xingxiaxiu built a wooden house at the edge of the camp and began to rest and recover his strength.

After traveling all night, he really needed to rest, especially since he was going to face an opponent like the Four-Tails Jinchuriki next.

The current Lao Zi is definitely not as proficient in mastering the power of the tailed beasts as he will be a few decades later.

It is not even possible for him to develop the power of Melt Release based on the power of the Four Tails, he can only purely borrow the power of the Four Tails.

But the more this happens, the more violent and irrational the power will probably become.

Of course, these are secondary.

The key is.

What should I do?

Can we defeat the Four-Tails Jinchuriki and extract the Four-Tails from Old Shizukuri's body?
After extracting it, can I seal it into my body and use it as a power bank?

Xingxia Xiu knew very well that with his current attainments in sealing techniques, he would definitely not be able to break the seal, but this was not the difficulty.

Just use the Tianmeng Walker technique to control Lao Zi first.

The key is to seal it into the body.

Can Tsunade, Jiraiya and the others help?

if it is possible.

After capturing the Four-Tails, can Konoha withstand the pressure from Iwagakure?

Danzo is not worried about Hoshida Xiu, the key is Sarutobi Hiruzen.

During this period, Sarutobi Hiruzen was in his prime and still a great ninja, but Hoshita Hide couldn't guarantee it.

"At worst, I can defect..."

There was a look of madness in Xingxiaxiu's eyes.

I have already learned the immortal arts and also the wood escape technique.

If you defect now, you can go anywhere in the world.

And this is just the worst-case scenario.

After making the decision, Xingxiaxiu cleared all thoughts and quickly fell asleep.

……

Two hours later, Xingxia woke up on time.

After washing his face, Xingxia Xiu came to see Mitomon En again.

At this time, there was another person in the tent.

Mimura Leaf Roll!

Mitomon En said directly: "A, this is Meicun Yeju, he will take you to the battlefield."

Xing Xiaxiu nodded: "Then let's go!"

Swish!

Xingxia Xiu and Meicun Yejuan disappeared from the tent.

Mitomon En lowered his head to look at the map, his brows gradually relaxed: "With Wood Release, even if we can't completely suppress the Four-Tails Jinchūriki, we can at least contain him, freeing up Jiraiya and the others..."
