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

Chapter 140 Forced! (Subscribe for monthly tickets)

Inside the wooden house, Hoshita Hide and Jiraiya sat opposite each other.

"Xiu, are you sure you can force Iwagakure to give up the Rain Country?"

Jiraiya asked seriously.

The order from Konoha had arrived, and Jiraiya immediately ran over to find Hoshita Hide.

And Xingxia Xiu also received orders from Danzo, and knew that it would not be long before Danzo would come in person.

Xingxia Xiu was very clear about Danzo's thoughts. He definitely wanted to completely take over the Rain Country.

Even if it's just to control the Rain Country by controlling the Rain Village.

But you must never give up just like that and let all your previous efforts go to waste.

"Kill Ohnoki!"

Xingxia Xiu said truthfully: "Or threaten the Hidden Rock Village and force the Iwagakure to withdraw."

Jiraiya frowned: "This... I'm afraid I can't do it?"

Hoshita Hide nodded: "Oonoki...he wants to leave, there's no way to stop him."

"Unless the Third Hokage can hold Ōnoki back, I'll go straight to the Iwagakure Village."

Danzo couldn't contain Ōnoki.

And if it is the same as before, with Hoshita Hide responsible for restraining Ōnoki, and Danzo and the others attacking, there is no way to defeat the Iwagakure.

Konoha's military strength is far inferior.

The Iwagakure is not using its full strength now.

"Of course, it also depends on the losses that the Iwagakure can bear."

Hoshita Hide said: "My main body and Danzo-sama will hold Ōnoki back, and I will split my clones to attack with you. We will defeat the current Iwagakure as quickly as possible and capture some of them to use as bargaining chips."

Jiraiya thought about it carefully and nodded, "This should be the best way."

"If we can't achieve our goal, then we can only give up the Rain Country through peace talks."

Although Konoha's original goal was not to occupy the Rain Country, it had actually been taken over, and it would still be hard to give up.

Even Jiraiya, who wanted peace, was no exception.

Because in his eyes, the current Rain Kingdom is already peaceful.

If Konoha gave up, the once peaceful Land of the Rain would surely fall back into chaos.

With the current strength of the Rain Village, the Rain Country will become a bustling outhouse in the future.

I don't know the future, but I can foresee some things.

And Xingxia Xiu knew.

Originally there was Hanzo, but after he retreated, the Rain Country fell into chaos.

Now that Hanzo has been killed by him, without Konoha, the Rain Country will only become more chaotic.

……

Jiraiya left in a hurry.

No matter what the outcome, this battle must be fought, so he has to go back to mobilize and make arrangements. It is impossible to wait for Danzo to arrive before starting to make arrangements.

After Jiraiya left, Xingxia Xiu fell into deep thought.

Given Konoha's current situation, it is indeed necessary to find a place to break the deadlock.

And the Rain Country is indeed the most suitable place.

There is room for both attack and negotiation.

Xingxia Xiu got up and walked out of the wooden house, looking at the gloomy sky outside: Give up the Rain Kingdom?
Fuck you!

Dry!
At night, Danzo arrived in the Land of Rain and came to the wooden house.

"A, are you sure?"

Danzo asked directly when he saw Xingxia Xiu.

Hoshita Hide said: "As long as Danzo-sama can stop Ohnoki, no one in the Iwagakure can stop me."

Danzo was silent.

To block Ohnoki, will he use his head?

If Ohnoki goes crazy, he will probably be killed in one move.

Seeing Danzo's silence, Hoshita Hide said, "Danzo-sama and I can join forces to suppress Ohnoki. At the same time, we can use our clones and Jiraiya to attack and defeat the current Iwagakure army."

"However, it would be difficult to force Iwagakure to admit defeat."

"Even if the Iwagakure ninja organized tens of thousands of ninjas to attack, I wouldn't be able to stop them."

In terms of military strength, among the five major ninja villages, the Iwagakure is the strongest.

The third Raikage was exhausted to death.

Danzo's face was gloomy: "Then I can only give up some of the benefits... and secretly control the Rain Village."

"Huruzen wants to push Kuroo to become the leader of Rain Village. Ako, use your illusion to control him and take charge of Rain Village."

He chose the second option.

After all, Xingxia Xiu's Wood Release is not as good as the first generation.

However, Xingxia Xiu said: "Forgive me for being frank, but illusion manipulation is not the best method. While it is easy to break, it will also give other ninja villages a handle to seize it."

“It’s better to take control directly.”

Danzo was very surprised: "Huh?"

"Do you have any idea?"

Xingxiaxiu said: "I can become Black Rain!"

Danzo frowned, "Huruzen will not let you stay in the Land of Rain."

Xingxia Xiu shook his head: "Danzo-sama, just need the clone to stay here."

"The clones, in conjunction with the roots, can quickly infiltrate the Rain Village and even absorb the backbone of the Rain Village into the roots to strengthen the roots."

Danzo's eyes gleamed, and he made a decision in an instant: "In that case, you will be responsible for the execution!"

Xing Xiaxiu lowered his head: "I understand!"...

The Rock Ninja frontline headquarters.

Ohnoki frowned at the information.

Konoha's actions naturally could not be hidden from them.

Such frequent movements clearly indicate a counterattack.

After pondering for a moment, Ohnoki immediately gave the order to transfer troops from the headquarters.

Konoha's actions made him feel a little uneasy.

Moreover, he guessed that Konoha, facing three enemies at the same time, would probably have to end the war on one side first.

The one to be chosen now is Iwagakure.

"Humph, Sarutobi Hiruzen really underestimates me!"

Ohnoki snorted inwardly.

Konoha actually treated him as a soft persimmon.

However, thinking of the troublesome Hoshita Hide, Ohnoki couldn't help but have a headache.

……

As time goes by, the atmosphere on the border of the Rain Country becomes increasingly tense.

The intelligence teams of Konoha and Iwagakure are clashing more and more frequently.

January 37, Konoha 11.

Hoshita Hide, Danzo, Jiraiya and some Konoha ninjas and Rain ninjas appeared at the front line.

On the opposite side, Ohnoki and his guards were suspended in the air, while on the ground was the defensive position built by the Iwagakure.

This time, the Iwagakure were on the defensive, which was to their advantage as they could create a terrain that suited them in advance.

"Oonoki, we have signed an offensive and defensive alliance with the Rain Village. Please withdraw from the Rain Country immediately."

Danzo spoke loudly.

In addition to an offensive and defensive alliance, Kuroyu also signed a series of cooperation alliances on behalf of the Rain Village and Konoha.

Moreover, this Black Rain was not faked by Xingxiaxiu.

The current Rain Village really needs a strong backer like Konoha, so it is easy to talk to, and it is also a choice that must be made.

However, Ohnoki was very disdainful of Danzo's words: "Danzo, Hanzo is dead. The Rain Village is now in name only and cannot represent the Land of Rain."

Danzo said calmly: "We have reached a consensus with the Daimyo of the Land of Rain. Soon, a new leader of the Rain Village will appear."

This is not false.

The Daimyo of the Land of Rain has agreed that Kuroame will become the leader of the Rain Village after Hanzo and has reached a cooperation with Konoha.

Ōnoki also knew this information, but he denied it: "The Daimyo of the Land of Rains probably didn't volunteer."

"Danzo, this war can only end if you withdraw from the Rain Country."

Danzo snorted coldly: "In that case, let's see if Iwagakure can stop the combined forces of Konoha and Amegakure."

As he waved his hand, Jiraiya immediately sent out a signal flare and led his men to charge.

This is just one of the battlefields.

The battle is about to break out.

Ohnoki in the air said to the three guards behind him: "You are responsible for restraining Danzo."

"Yes!"

The three guards immediately obeyed the order.

However, neither Hoshita Hide and Ohnoki in the air, nor Danzo and the Tsuchikage guards on the ground took action immediately.

Until Hoshita Hide's clone was exposed among Jiraiya's troops, he used the Tree World Descent to cover the Iwagakure's carefully prepared position with a sea of ​​trees.

"Cunning little devil!"

Ohnoki gritted his teeth, then formed a seal to create a clone.

Xingxia Xiu smiled and said, "Mr. Tsuchikage, your opponent is me!"

A battle broke out in the air.

It's just that the two have been fighting for several months and are very familiar with each other. They go back and forth, with no clear winner.

On the ground, Danzo was also not at a disadvantage when facing the three Tsuchikage guards.

at the same time.

On each battlefield, the wooden clones that had been prepared in advance suddenly rose up and directly covered the battlefield with the tree world.

On this day, the Iwagakure were defeated.

However, after retreating to the Land of Earth, the Iwagakure ninja quickly organized a counterattack.

This time they changed their previous combat mode and dispersed their forces to weaken the destructive power of Xing Xia Xiu's clone.

Although this also weakens the advantage of the Iwagakure ninja in large-scale combat, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

Anyway, that little bit of troops can't stop Xing Xiaxiu's clones, so it's better to launch a dispersed and infiltrative counterattack.

But no matter what, in just a few days, the battlefield moved from the Rain Kingdom to the Land of Earth.

Moreover, Konoha deliberately spread the war to the Land of Birds.

January 37, Konoha 11.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sent someone to deliver the peace agreement to Ōnoki.

Looking at the peace talks scroll in his hand, Ohnoki did not feel happy at all.

It seemed that Konoha took the initiative to seek peace, but he didn't get any benefits at all.

But if the fight continued, Ohnoki would feel bad.

That little bastard Xingxia Xiu has already captured dozens of them, and they have become bargaining chips in Konoha's negotiations.
