Iwagakure Village.

"He awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan at the age of ten, his combat skills are comparable to those of a Jonin, and he even claims he will surpass Madara Uchiha?!"

As Onoki listened to the reports from Kouko and Higashi no Shijin, a hint of seriousness flashed in his eyes, and he recalled the boy's memories in his mind.

He and his teacher, the Second Tsuchikage Mu, were both humiliated by the ninja world's Asura, Madara Uchiha…

From that time onward, the Second Tsuchikage Mu began researching techniques to counter Susanoo, eventually developing the Bloodline Limit Dust Release, which provided Iwagakure with the invaluable Will of Stone.

"Tell me the details of that Uchiha brat's battle, and make a detailed sketch of his portrait!"

As Onoki listened to Obito Uchiha's performance, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He picked up Obito's portrait and coldly commanded:

"Make him a prime target for assassination, and have all units focus on him from the start of the war!"

What a terrifying figure an Uchiha genius might eventually become...

After Mito Uzumaki's death, perhaps only Onoki in the ninja world experienced firsthand that despairing sense of oppression.

Therefore, among all the hidden villages, Onoki's hostility towards Konoha, which has the Uchiha clan, has always been the strongest. He has also repeatedly emphasized in meetings that we must be wary of the emergence of a new "Shinobi World Asura" or "Shinobi World God" in Konoha.

"Lord Tsuchikage, besides that Uchiha, there is another Konoha examiner named Uchiha Aomizu, whose combat power is even more astonishing."

Firelight reported in a deep voice, "This guy is extremely fast and has swordsmanship comparable to Hatake Sakumo. He can unleash astonishing slashing waves. The genius puppeteer of Sunagakure had his hands cut off by him."

Upon hearing that he was even stronger than Obito Uchiha, Onoki became even more wary.

But after hearing Huoguang's description of Qingshui's fighting style, he laughed again: "How old does he look?"

Firelight, seeing his Earth Shadow suddenly relax, was somewhat puzzled, but still tried hard to recall Qing Shui's face and figure, and hesitantly said:

"Probably between eighteen and twenty years old, very tall and strong, but with delicate features, making it hard to judge..."

"There's nothing to fear. Even if he has the Sharingan, he's just an enhanced version of Sakumo Hatake, and that's about the limit."

Onoki waved his hand magnanimously and gave the instruction:

"The power and limit of the Uchiha clan lies only in those eyes. Like the Uchiha Aokiji you mentioned, although he has some immediate fighting ability, he has already gone down the wrong path."

"According to what you said, Uchiha Aokizu was protecting that Uchiha who awakened his Sharingan at the age of ten, which was part of his duty as a guard. So, don't you already have a judgment in your mind about which one will be more dangerous to Iwagakure in the future?"

Firelight nodded in sudden realization and said in a deep voice, "Lord Tsuchikage, I understand!"

"Good. Go and inform the other hidden villages. We need to find a time to start the war as soon as possible."

Onoki gave a cold laugh: "This time, victory in the war will surely belong to us!"

Sand Hidden Village.

"In this war, we need to get that old geezer Fenfu involved too. I don't want to hear him talking about love and peace anymore!"

At the high-level meeting, Chiyo glared angrily and declared unequivocally that Sunagakure would go all out to destroy Konoha…

Not only her son and daughter-in-law, but now even her grandson's hands have been severed. The blood feud has become so intense that it cannot be contained.

Although the Second Shinobi World War was started by Sunagakure, and Sasori attacked Aoshui first...

But that's how the ninja world is; nobody listens to reason, especially the powerful ones who wield strength.

If you suffer a loss, you must find a way to get revenge...

The Third Kazekage nodded and slowly said:

"Chiyo is right. It's time to make use of the One-Tailed Jinchuriki. I will go and communicate with Bunfuku."

"This war is a chance for Sunagakure to turn the tide. Any ninja who performs well will be heavily rewarded!"

"Especially for the younger generation who aspire to become Kazekage, let your performance speak for itself!"

Sitting below Feng Ying, Luo Sha and Ye Cang's eyes flashed with fighting spirit upon hearing these words...

The Third Kazekage smiled slightly as he observed their reactions.

If it weren't for Konoha's arrogance, which drew the unanimous condemnation of the entire ninja world against this largest village...

Then Sunagakure might be plunged into another civil war.

It's not just Konoha's Hokage lineage with its master-disciple system; Sunagakure also faces similar problems.

From the perspective of the Third Kazekage, Rasa's master, there was certainly no possibility that his beloved disciple could lose the fight between Rasa and Pakura…

But we still need to give an explanation.

Fortunately, war broke out.

Before the internal strife broke out, it provided these two individuals with a platform to unleash their inner fighting spirit and also to contribute to Sunagakure.

Meanwhile, during a meeting of the Sand Village's high-ranking officials.

The scorpion, having lost both hands, looked at his puppet-like hands with extreme satisfaction:

"As expected, the puppet's body is much stronger than the easily decaying flesh!"

"Next, I'll transform Bi's entire body into a puppet, utilizing my regenerative core technology..."

The scorpion slowly transformed itself, its eyes filled with the image of blue water:

"You enemy who blasphemes against my puppet art, I will make you one of my most perfect collections, I swear!"

"To deal with this bastard, well, the steel used to construct the main body must be the hardest. And also to deal with that bastard Hatake Sakumo, those two guys only know swordsmanship..."

Yunyin Village.

"Killer Bee and Yugito have both mastered the powers of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails, and the Six Paths Noble Phantasms have been thoroughly investigated..."

Tsuchikage reported to the Third Raikage about the important combat force of Kumogakure and also gave a detailed account of Konoha's current predicament.

The Third Raikage laughed heartily and embraced his son with great pride: "Kumakuha will soon unify the ninja world!"

"Son, perform well this time. I can't give my position as Raikage to a coward!"

"You and Killer Bee will be in charge of dealing with that fast Uchiha Aokiji! Don't you always boast that your speed is so fast that even the Sharingan can't react?"

Fourth Generation Ai nodded seriously: "Watch me, Father!"

While other hidden villages were preparing for war.

The two shamans of Mount Myōboku are also practicing Sage Mode and have reached the beginner level, but they have not yet fully mastered it.

"Jiraiya, Minato, come quick!"

However, Fukasaku and Shima interrupted the cultivation process, shouting loudly, "The Great Immortal has summoned you; he has a new prophecy!"

Upon hearing the word "prophecy," Jiraiya abruptly broke free from his state of sensing and gathering natural energy, grabbed Minato Namikaze, and rushed to the main hall of Mount Myōboku to listen to new instructions.

Minato Namikaze looked somewhat helpless, but his expression was also serious and expectant.

While he wasn't as convinced of the prophecies of Mount Myōboku as Jiraiya, he generally believed in them.

Above the palace.

The giant toad sage, with its eyes half-closed, slowly recounted the future it had dreamed of:

"I saw a figure, a very blurry shadow, I couldn't see his face clearly."

"He possesses many powerful abilities, enough to turn this world upside down..."

"He is a prophetic child who emerged from the forbidden realm, yet he yearns for peace and the future. However, his existence also brings war. I cannot foresee what the future will look like under such drastic changes..."

"Jiraiya, I see that he and you share a master-disciple bond. Do not reject him. Use the power of Mount Myōboku to guide him onto the right path, otherwise this world will be in danger—a great terror and crisis capable of destroying everything..."

Jiraiya listened blankly to this new prophecy, his mind somewhat blank.

The forbidden prophetic child with whom he shares a master-disciple relationship?

Could it be Nagato...?

That's not right. He sent people to look for Nagato, but all he got was information that the three children were dead.

Could that be the Watergate?

But Minato doesn't seem like the type to bring about war...

And right now.

The information relayed by Hiruzen Sarutobi sent a chill down Jiraiya's spine—

The war has begun, return immediately!

Let's take a little break on Friday!

I've been adjusting my sleep schedule lately, and the insomnia has been driving me crazy. The worst part is that I'm also losing hair, but thankfully I still have a lot of hair, so I won't turn into a One-Punch Man.

Sweet dreams everyone! I hope I can sleep from 10 PM to 6 AM and start my new 10,000-word daily routine with unparalleled power!

Insomnia is so annoying.

Chapter 144 Jiraiya: I rejected Aoshui, oh no!

Upon returning to Konoha, Jiraiya was stunned into silence after hearing about Konoha's recent show of weakness towards other great hidden villages.

This is absolutely insane...

First, they took such a tough stance in reprimanding the various hidden villages, attracting a wave of hatred and anger, and then they completely reversed their stance...

Even the most ruthless Second Hokage never did something like this!

Back then, Tobirama Senju, though he never uttered a single soft word to outsiders, at least always flexed his muscles, warning enemies not to offend the village.

They don't provoke trouble, but they're not afraid of trouble either—the important premise is not to provoke trouble in the first place!

But the current Konoha is like a war-torn version of a little brat…

First, they stir up trouble in each village with sarcastic remarks, and then they show off their own weakness and vulnerability. Isn't this just provoking them to fight?

They're just hoping for chaos and can't wait to start a war!

Jiraiya truly couldn't understand how Sarutobi-sensei, who used to be so steady that even he found it hard to keep up, could make such a move...
