Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

"When shall we set off, now?" Onoki was nervous, but he knew that this war was unavoidable.

He could naturally throw away this hot potato of Yu Province and ignore these troublesome matters.

However, Yan's strength is so great that if she were to easily take over the Rain Kingdom, she would definitely continue to expand her influence outwards based on her strength in the future.

At that point, their country will suffer losses far more than just a single province.

Another point is that the Hokage is very confident about this battle, even if he really defeats Yan, but the Land of Earth breaks the alliance.

Onoki could not imagine what kind of retaliation Iwagakure would face.

He could very well fall from his position as a major power overnight, a price he cannot afford. It would mean being nailed to the pillar of shame and cursed by future generations.

Kazekage and Onoki shared similar thoughts; although they were extremely nervous, they had no choice but to confront Yan.

"More or less. We've found Yan's location, but we don't know what she's cultivating right now. We'd better hurry and interrupt her. I have a bad feeling that if she finishes her cultivation, it will be detrimental to us."

Qu Feng said with a solemn expression.

The Kazekage and Tsuchikage nodded in unison: "Alright, let's set off now. We'll probably face Hanzo first."

Onoki sneered, "That damned guy! If it weren't for his wretched salamander, we would have killed Yan last time!"

Fengying patted him on the shoulder: "There's nothing we can do about it. When it comes to life and death, he will definitely have to choose the right way."

Yan was still alive at the time, and as long as he recovered, he would definitely be able to return to his peak. This life-saving grace should be enough to help Hanzo make a comeback.

He summoned the wind and dispelled all the clouds and mist surrounding the entire Land of Rain, restoring it to its former glory.

He then dialed Zhili's phone number.

After only one busy tone, the call was answered: "How are you feeling? Is your body still able to handle it?"

After listening to the wind, he gave a gentle smile: "Of course, don't underestimate me. Everything is fine, the ninjutsu was very successful, and we're about to set off."

After a brief silence on the other end of the phone, Zhili said, "Okay, I'll cook some of your favorite dishes tonight."

The voice was firm and full of trust, and Zhili believed that Qufeng would definitely return safely.

"it is good."

In just a few words, Qu Feng's heart was filled with joy. His wife was still waiting for him to come home, and he had another reason to win.

After hanging up the phone, Qu Feng pointed towards the direction of the Rain Province in the Land of Earth: "It's in that direction, let's go."

Then, Qufeng summoned Qingyun and Liufeng: "To conserve chakra, you two can ride my summoning beasts first."

The Kazekage and Tsuchikage naturally did not refuse, and lightly leaped onto the backs of the two cranes. Although they both knew flying ninjutsu, it would consume too much chakra if used for traveling.

Qu Feng summoned Qingyun Liufeng so that they could maintain the best mental state during battle.

To avoid these two running out of chakra and holding us back.

"Let's go."

Qu Feng leaped from the office building, and a surge of clouds propelled him high into the air, propelling him rapidly toward the detected direction.

Qingyun and Liufeng flapped their wings and quickly caught up with the speed of the wind.

"The exploration is over. Everyone is free to move around in the city, but no one may leave the city without permission."

As they were leaving the city center, Qu Feng said this to keep the villagers from living in fear in their houses.

The three of them were also very fast, and the Land of Rain was simply too small.

It didn't take long to reach the vicinity of the target point.

Upon arrival, Qu Feng immediately dismissed Qing Yun and Liu Feng, and then canceled his ninjutsu and began walking.

So as not to alert the enemy.

"Everyone be careful, watch out for traps around you."

This method of operation is somewhat similar to the missions I participated in when I was a kid, except that my teammates were all shadows.

Following the wind's guidance, the two quickly arrived at a small valley.

The entrance here is very well hidden, and there are many bushes growing around it. If it weren't for the Cloud Escape technique, the Wind Chaser wouldn't be able to find the exact location of the entrance.

Once inside the valley, everything becomes remarkably flat. Although there is some water in the valley, it is not much. The valley's structure effectively blocks most of the rainwater from entering, turning the area into a natural greenhouse.

Just by looking at last year's withered branches, you can tell that the plants here are all very tall.

"Goodness, if you weren't a local, you really wouldn't be able to find this place. It's all thanks to that old bastard Hanzo."

"So, Hokage, shall we make our move?"

With a wave of his hand, he unleashed a wind blade that swirled through the valley, severing all the weeds and withered grasses by the roots.

"Alright, now Tsuchikage, please make some noise and force Hanzo and the others out."

Onoki gave an OK sign, then quickly formed hand seals, and a huge rock giant slowly crawled out of the earth.

Then the giant began to frantically pound the ground!

The sound of the vibrations echoed throughout the valley, and the underground was also very sensitive to the impact of these tremors.

The first to sense it was the salamander; its enormous body relayed the news of its discovery to Hanzo.

At the same time, Yan, who was absorbing the power of the altar, was also attracted: "Hanzo, what's going on outside? Why is it so chaotic?"

Upon hearing this, Hanzo bowed slightly and apologized, "I don't know yet. I'll go and investigate first."

Onoki slammed his fist into the ground with brute force, without using a single drop of chakra.

So Hanzo below didn't notice, because he wasn't very good at sensing things.

Chapter 726 Reencounter with Hanzo

The sound of the vibrations echoed throughout the valley, and the underground was also very sensitive to the impact of these tremors.

The first to sense it was the salamander; its enormous body relayed the news of its discovery to Hanzo.

At the same time, Yan, who was absorbing the power of the altar, was also attracted: "Hanzo, what's going on outside? Why is it so chaotic?"

Upon hearing this, Hanzo bowed slightly and apologized, "I don't know yet. I'll go and investigate first."

Onoki slammed his fist into the ground with brute force, without using a single drop of chakra.

So Hanzo below didn't notice, because he wasn't very good at sensing things.

Less than a minute after Onoki started smashing it, an even more violent tremor came from underground.

A moment later, a giant salamander burst from the ground, with Hanzo standing behind it.

Hanzo was clearly very surprised and astonished after seeing Toru's face clearly.

"Damn it, how could it be you! How did you get here!" Hanzo was not a little flustered. Although he was confident in his superior strength, comparable to Hashirama Senju, facing three Kage at once made him feel somewhat troubled.

"Kage, Tsuchikage, Hokage, what brings you three to this valley?"

Although Hanzo appeared to be asking a question, the salamander beneath him had already begun to move.

It crawled towards them at an incredibly fast speed! Along the way, it released a large amount of slime, greatly reducing the places where they could hide.

The three Kage weren't just for show; Hanzo himself was only slightly above Kage level, and was merely a stepping stone for them.

The real purpose of taking the wind has nothing to do with Hanzo; he is only concerned about Yan, who is cultivating underground!

Although I don't know what Yan is doing now, I will do everything I can to disrupt her plans. However, this Hanzo is really annoying, so I'll kill you first.

Kazekage clapped his hands, and a large amount of iron sand surged out from the terrain, then rushed towards Hanzo, forming countless iron sand spikes around him, completely enveloping him.

The salamander tried to resist, but it was all in vain. The iron sand was very rough and covered in chakra; the salamander was scratched by the iron sand spikes as soon as it turned around.

This made Hanzo hesitant to make any rash moves.

"What exactly do you want! All these years have passed, we've kept to ourselves, why won't you leave me a way out!"

Qu Feng found his words amusing, so he stepped forward and said, "To be honest, killing you or letting you go is just a matter of a single thought for me."

"My real target is the person you are trying to protect."

Upon hearing this, Hanzo's brain went completely blank. How could he have known that Lord Yan was here!

There was absolutely nothing wrong! He had been diligently guarding the door all day; there was no way anyone could have sneaked in to investigate!

With that in mind, Hanzo directly used his scythe to cut through the iron sand and began to engage the three Kage in a full-scale battle!

He slapped the salamander's belly hard, and the next second a large amount of purple poison gas spewed out, completely corroding the withered grass that Feng had just cut down on the ground.

Qu Feng felt that this thing posed no threat at all, so he didn't take it seriously.

He snapped his fingers, and a burst of white light exploded beneath his feet, sending a barrage of ice spikes hurtling towards the salamander, along with a powerful wind-style attack.

Not only did it propel the ice spikes forward, it also blew all the poisonous gas from the salamanders back!

The ice spikes were all incredibly sharp; if they were to pierce a person, it would be an instant death. Yet, Hanzo recklessly stood in front of the salamander.

He spun his chain scythe, preparing to deflect the approaching ice spikes.

The biting wind blew across the icy chains, and Hanzo's hands were frozen stiff, but he still did not stop what he was doing.

However, the effect was outstanding, blocking almost 90% of the ice spikes, while the remaining 10% hit the huge salamander.

The pain and the feeling of being frozen instantly made the salamander scream, its venom spraying out uncontrollably like a rain of poison, indiscriminately blasting away.

Hanzo himself has a natural immunity to the toxins of the salamander, so this is not a problem for him, but it is for Torifu and the others.

Salami toxin is a neurotoxin that can make people feel like they are experiencing something wonderful.

But what makes it so terrifying is that the blood of the salamander has not only two effects, but when you come into contact with the toxins of the salamander, it will also cause persistent ulceration, and eventually the person will become unrecognizable and ghostly.

Hanzo used these methods to rise to power in his early years because he firmly believed that to achieve great things, one must first not be soft-hearted.

Both the Wind Shadow and the Earth Shadow have their own ways of dealing with this: one summons a stone giant to protect himself, while the other uses iron sand to protect himself.

The effect was remarkable; the poisonous rain had absolutely no effect on them.

While protecting themselves, they did not forget to use their numbers to attack Hanzo, who was trying to appease the salamander.

For a moment, Hanzo was caught in a flurry of activity, busy with both ends.

Qu Feng calmly cast a water shield around himself. The poisonous rain could not penetrate the water shield and was instead diluted by the water. However, with so much rain falling, the water escaping technique eventually turned purple.

A moment later, the water shield disappeared, and the poison also shattered and vanished along with it.
