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

Chapter 56: Konoha is not allowed to have such a powerful person around! (Please pre-order!)
All the captives were handed over to the Rain Ninja for further interrogation. At the same time, as a ninja village, the intelligence agency also began to operate at high speed.

On the contrary, Xingxia Xiu and others were temporarily arranged to stay by Yu Shinobi, quietly waiting for Yu Shinobi's information.

Sunset.

The Anbu team with Kamishiro Takeshi finally rushed back to Konoha and reported to Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was slightly surprised when he heard this, and immediately ordered the Anbu team to send Kamishiro Takeshi to the interrogation department.

Previously, the information obtained by Xingxia Xiu was relatively brief. Now it is necessary to interrogate Jindai Wu in all aspects to see how much village information this guy has leaked to other ninja villages.

Sarutobi Hiruzen then sent for Danzo to come over. After explaining the situation in the Land of Rain, he said, "Hoshita Hide is doing very well, but to cooperate with Hanzo, we need someone of sufficient weight to come forward."

He was magnanimous enough and did not care about Xing Xiaxiu's inappropriate behavior.

Looking at Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly: "Danzo, you should go there yourself!"

"It's a good opportunity to see how ambitious Hanzo is!"

Danzo nodded and stood up: "I will leave immediately."

……

Rain Village, inside the room.

Looking at Xingxia Xiu sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, Shimura Daichi was not so calm. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask: "A, are we just going to wait for the information from Yu Shinobi?"

After hearing this, Inuzuka Ryo and other Root ninjas also looked at Xingxia Xiu.

Xingxia Xiu slowly opened his eyes and looked at Aburame Ryoma.

Aburame Ryoma immediately understood and said, "No one is nearby eavesdropping."

Hoshita Hide then looked at Shimura Daichi and said, "Our power is limited, unless we contact the village's intelligence system, but this is not conducive to cooperation with the Rain Ninja."

"Besides, we are not strong enough to use the village's intelligence system."

He relied on his strength to subdue Shimura Daichi and others, but he was unable to command the people deployed by Konoha in the Land of Rain with just a few words.

And, as Xingxia Xiu said.

This is not appropriate and will cause hostility from the Rain Ninja.

It is one thing for people to know that Konoha has made arrangements in the Land of Rain, but it is another thing for you to put it in front of their eyes in a blatant manner.

and.

Xingxia Xiu continued: "Don't worry, Danzo-sama should be here soon."

"Then it will naturally be up to Lord Danzo to make the decision."

After hearing this, Daichi Shimura suddenly realized something, then he let out a long sigh, feeling that most of the pressure on his shoulders was instantly relieved.

time flies.

The night passed in a flash.

Just as Xingxia Xiu said, Danzo came very quickly.

After traveling all night, he entered the Rain Village at seven in the morning to meet Hanzo.

Half an hour later, Xingxia Xiu and others also met Danzo.

"A, you did very well this time."

In front of all the Root ninjas, Danzo praised Hoshita Hide without hesitation.

Although he is not as magnanimous as Sarutobi Hiruzen, he also likes capable subordinates.

Of course, he also has the ability to destroy a talent that could threaten Konoha Village.

Facing Danzo's praise, Xingxia Xiu lowered his head, his tone appearing very excited: "It's all thanks to your cultivation."

"Hanzo is willing to cooperate because his subordinate is yours."

Danzo was very satisfied with this answer. He waved his hand to let the others leave, leaving only Hoshita Hide and Shimura Daichi. Then he asked in a deep voice: "What do you think of Hanzo's cooperation with us this time?"

Shimura Daichi glanced at Hoshishita Hide, thought for a moment and said, "Master Danzo, Hanzo chose to cooperate with us probably because he wanted to give the Iwagakure an illusion and intimidate them."

Danzo remained noncommittal: "Aka, what do you think?"

Xingxia Xiu lowered his head slightly and said, "Master Danzo, I think Hanzo is very ambitious."

Danzo raised an eyebrow slightly: "Oh?"

“How come you see?”

Xingxia Xiu said: "Although Hanzo has the title of demigod, the Rain Village is much weaker than the five major ninja villages."

"But Hanzo's tough attitude towards the Iwagakure ninja shows that he is not afraid of the Iwagakure Village."

"It seems that I persuaded Hanzo to cooperate with us, but my few words alone are clearly not enough."

"Hanzo agreed so easily, which shows that he also has this idea."

Danzo nodded slightly after hearing this, then signaled Xingxia Xiu to continue.

"Hiroshita Hide said, 'Hanzo chose to cooperate with us. He did so in order to intimidate the Rock Ninja by using the village as a pretext to create the illusion that the Rock Ninja were in league with the village.'"

"But I believe Hanzo has another intention, which is to show us goodwill and confuse our judgment."

Danzo's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Shimura Daichi was a little confused: "A, showing goodwill is understandable. But confusing us, what does he want to confuse us?"

Xingxia Xiu analyzed: "Hanzo, who holds the title of demigod, is the leader of the Rain Village. If I were him, I would definitely not be content with the Rain Village's current status."

"Why can't he be the Rain Shadow? After all, he is a demigod, holding the title of Ninja God, second only to the First Hokage."

"And to the north of the Rain Country is the Earth Country and the Grass Country, to the west is the Bird Country, to the southwest is the Wind Country, and to the southeast is the River Country."

"If Rain Village wants to become the sixth largest ninja village in the ninja world and be on par with our Konoha, it can only take on the tasks of the three countries of Grass Country, Bird Country, and River Country."

"Then he will have to face us, the three major ninja villages of Iwagakure and Sandagakure."

"Because neither we, nor the Iwagakure Village, nor the Sand Village, will allow the Rain Village to become powerful."

"Ten, if you were Hanzo, which country would you conquer first?" Shimura Daichi pondered for a moment and said, "River Country!"

"Among the three countries, neither the Bird Country nor the River Country has a ninja village, but the River Country is richer."

"Taking over the River Kingdom will allow us to grow stronger faster."

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "Yes, I also think it is the River Country."

"The Land of Birds isn't wealthy enough. The Land of Grass has the Kusagakure Village. Furthermore, the terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack for the Rain Village. Attacking the Kusagakure Village first will only alert the three major ninja villages and waste precious time."

"The River Kingdom and the Rain Kingdom were originally part of the same country. They were connected by numerous waterways. By following the water, they could quickly occupy important strategic locations."

"But if the Rain Village wants to take over the River Country, neither we nor the Sand Village will allow it."

"But the Sand Village is located in the Land of Wind, so their reaction won't be as quick as ours."

"Hanzo can work with us to confuse us and lower our guard against him."

After hearing this, Danzo asked, "Aka, in that case, what do you think we should do?"

Xingxia Xiu said: "Sir Danzo, if we cooperate with Hanzo, we can also lower his guard."

"As for Hanzo and the Rain Village... Konoha will not allow a more powerful ninja village to exist around it, nor will it allow anyone to become the next Ninja God and surpass the Hokage!"

To put it bluntly, Konoha is not allowed to have such an awesome person around!
How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
"Since Hanzo is ambitious, we might as well help him to become more ambitious."

Xingxia Xiu's voice was a bit cold: "Foster Hanzo's ambition, then throw him into the mud, break his spine, and make him never dare to covet the meat under our Konoha's mouth again."

"We might as well let him attack the River Kingdom. Once he does, we can directly attack the Rain Kingdom and turn it into a battlefield."

"And by then, not only us, but also Iwagakure and Sunagakure will definitely attack Rain Village at the same time."

"The three great ninja villages have no chance of winning, even if Hanzo is a demigod!"

Danzo nodded slightly and was about to speak when there was a knock on the door. Then Inuzuka Ling's voice rang out: "Danzo-sama, the Black Rain of Rain Village has arrived. We have almost gathered enough information about the Rock Ninja. We can start now."

A cold light flashed in Danzo's eyes: "Indeed, he is very ambitious. It seems that he has made preparations in advance."

Xingxia Xiu nodded in agreement: "Danzo-sama is wise. If we hadn't had to wait for Danzo-sama, we could have taken action directly last night."

The strength of Rain Village is quite good.

It is impossible for the Rain Ninja not to know something about the whereabouts of the Rock Ninja.

Add to that the Iwagakure prisoners captured yesterday, and it won't be difficult to follow the clues.

If we start taking action today, maybe the Iwagakure will have already reacted.

of course.

For Hanzo.

The importance of this operation is not how many Iwagakure are killed, but the operation itself.

"Let's go!"

Danzo turned and walked out.

Hoshita Hide and Shimura Daichi followed on the left and right.

After getting outside and meeting up with Kuroyu, the senior Rain Ninja, at Kuroyu's command, the Rain Ninjas disappeared from their original places one by one and rushed to various places.

Xing Xiaxiu could see that these people were there to convey orders.

In other words, the Rain Ninja has grasped the whereabouts of some of the Rock Ninja and has already made arrangements, just waiting for the order to act.

After these Rain Ninjas left, Kuroyu said to Danzo: "Those are just minor characters. The next one is the key point, and we need everyone in Konoha to take action together."

Danzo said solemnly: "Of course, we will do our best."

Heiyu nodded and then jumped up.

Danzo immediately followed, followed by Hoshita Hide and other Root ninjas.

After leaving Rain Village, the group headed north, crossed the river, crossed the plains, and entered the mountains.

While traveling through the mountains and forests, the Heiyu in front suddenly stopped, and then Xingxia Xiu saw several Rain Ninjas appear from their hiding places.

"Lord Kuroame, three Iwagakure nin have left that base."

After hearing the report, Hei Yu didn't care: "Launch an attack and force them out."

"understand!"

After receiving the order, several Rain Ninjas disappeared.

Heiyu followed, and Xingxiaxiu and others followed behind. Soon they reached the top of the mountain and looked down at a valley below.

Xingxia Xiu narrowed his eyes and caught sight of the Rain Ninjas quickly approaching the valley.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded and the battle broke out.

The Rain Ninja and the Rock Ninja's secret sentries fought together, but more Rain Ninja broke through the secret sentries and entered the valley.

shhhhhh!
A large number of kunai flew out and headed straight for the mountain wall.

Then there was a loud roar, and a series of explosions caused the mountain wall to collapse, revealing a hidden cave.

shhhhhh!
Rock bullets broke through the air and shot out from the cave densely, splashing grass and trees. Yu Yunin was unable to dodge and his body was pierced.

But more Rain Ninjas prepared their ninjutsu.

Rumble!
The water rushed into the cave.

At this time, on the higher mountain wall, a stone gate opened and a rock ninja rushed out.

Seeing this, Danzo ordered, "Do it!"

Many Root ninjas, including Hoshita Hide, disappeared from their places without saying a word.

While participating in the battle, Xingxia Xiu also noticed that Kuroyu, the commander of the Rain Ninja, also rushed out from the top of the mountain. The water under his feet gathered and turned into a rolling river, carrying him down and sweeping a Rock Ninja into the river, killing him easily.

A very powerful water-style ninja!
