Konoha: Becoming a God Starting with Aburame

Chapter 215 The Reactions and Preparations of Various Villages

Those who are family know their own situation. Although Akane has mastered many valuable technologies, they were all obtained from Uchiha Teru.

Expecting him to develop a super chakra cannon on his own is simply asking the impossible.

Akatsuki was doing quite well in Kumogakure. The Kumogakure people treated the Sky Ninjas very well, and Akatsuki even considered leaving the Akatsuki organization.

But now that I think about it, I should just continue being a spy for the Akatsuki, otherwise I won't be able to explain myself without the technology provided by the Akatsuki.

……

Although Kumogakure tried its best to conceal the fact that the Raikage Building had been bombarded by the chakra cannon, the news still came to the attention of the major adult villages.

After all, many Cloud Ninjas witnessed this scene, so it was unrealistic to try to hide it.

Leaf.

Minato looked thoughtfully at the intelligence presented by the Anbu. "Shikaku, what do you think?"

"There must be something fishy about this!"

Shikaku said solemnly, "Whether it's the invasion of the center of Kumogakure or the manipulation of the aerial fortress invaders to bombard the Raikage Building, these are not simple matters."

"This means that the Hidden Cloud Village's defenses were completely ineffective against the invaders. It's hard to imagine such a thing happening if it hadn't actually occurred."

Shikaku had a certain understanding of how powerful the central defense of a ninja village could be.

Putting everything else aside, the dense defenses in the heart of Konoha alone would make any ninja trying to infiltrate feel their scalp tingling.

Similarly, the defenses at the center of Kumogakure must have been strong, yet Kumogakure was still invaded.

"That's true, especially since the Raikage Building was bombarded by the aerial fortress, causing significant losses to Kumogakure."

Minato said meaningfully.

"The aerial fortress was an important force developed by the Hidden Cloud Village, but it was not properly monitored, and the invaders seized the opportunity, causing significant losses."

"Konoha cannot make the same mistake."

It's clear that Minato wants to use this opportunity to increase his influence over the training department.

Upon hearing Minato's words, Shikaku nodded thoughtfully. "This is indeed an opportunity. With the Hidden Cloud Village suffering real losses, we will face less resistance."

"However, getting past the two Hokage advisors will probably not be easy."

Thinking of two old men with puffed-up beards and glaring eyes, arguing and making a fuss, Minato rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

Ever since Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, the two Hokage advisors, joined Shiitsu's team, they have completely let loose.

Anyone who tries to interfere with the training department will face fierce attacks from them, accused of lacking martial ethics, harboring wolfish ambitions, and disrespecting the elderly.

If anyone tried to argue back, or even threatened them with force, the two old men would simply fall to the ground, howling and screaming like ghosts:

"Murder!"

In short, the two Hokage advisors who have been instructed by Zhiyi are now very difficult to deal with!

Moral blackmail, taking advantage of one's age, and extortion—this combination of tactics left even the Uchiha clan speechless.

After all, the situation of the Uchiha clan has finally started to improve, and we can't let these two old men affect it.

"I will try to communicate with Zhiyi."

Minato said quietly, while taking out a plan.

"This is……"

Looking at the massive resources required in the plan that Minato had taken out, Shikaku hesitated and said...

"These are the resources that Shiichi needs to create the Giant God Armor, which is a huge expense even for Konoha right now."

The fact that Minato considered it a huge expense for Konoha, which was now the victor of the Third Shinobi World War and had gained enormous benefits, shows just how vast the resources required for the Giant God Armor were.

For Zhiyi now, he can barely manage to defeat the Giant God Armor on his own.

But why not take advantage of a freebie?

"I am prepared to agree to Shiyu's plan, along with the experience of Kumogakure, in exchange for control of a research base."

Minato had already made up his mind: Konoha absolutely had to possess the Giant God Armor. If he could seize the opportunity to gain some benefits, that would be the best outcome.

In any case, Minato had had enough of the situation at Training Base No. 3. It was like a quagmire, and once you got stuck, even if you were the Hokage, it would be difficult to move forward.

At Training Center Base No. 3, you can't distinguish between your enemies and allies at all; all you know is that you're constantly being attacked.

Hidden Rock Village.

After receiving news that the Raikage Building had been bombarded, Onoki smiled.

Although Iwagakure has been humiliated and in a sorry state by Ryuchi Cave these past few days, seeing what Kumogakure has gone through makes them feel much better.

The worst thing is comparison. Compared to the Cloud Village, which lost a lot of pillars and future, the situation of the Iwagakure Village is much better.

"Although this is not normal, it has nothing to do with us. The most important thing now is to solve the problem of Ryuchi Cave."

Ōno Kijin, being an old and shrewd man, immediately saw that this matter was unusual, but he did not intend to investigate, because Iwagakure was also in great trouble at the moment.

"Huangtu, how's the location of Longdi Cave coming along?"

"We've achieved some results. We captured some of the large snakes from Ryuchi Cave alive, laid a trap, and then sent them back to Ryuchi Cave. We're currently locating them, and we'll have their exact positions soon."

Onoki slammed his hand on the table. "Very well, we must deal with that White Snake Sage who dared to bare his teeth at Iwagakure!"

"After defeating the White Snake Sage, Ryuchi Cave can also serve as a honey-producing area for the Great Bee Sage Clan, making it a sacred site for summoning beasts. The natural energy there must be very rich, and it might even produce Golden Bee Bread."

Golden Bee Bread Balls are the finest among bee bread balls, made from golden honey brewed by the giant honeybee fairy tribe.

Even in the place where the natural energy is most concentrated, where the Great Bee Sage resides, the production of golden honey is not abundant, corresponding to the level of ninjas like Onoki.

So far, only three pills have been produced. Onoki used one to personally experience the effects of the Golden Bee Bread Pill in order to prevent any deviations when using it in the future.

After using it, Onoki's entire body was enveloped in immense natural energy, and with the addition of the Kekkei Tota - Dust Release, he entered Dust Release Chakra Mode.

Even after entering Dust Release Chakra Mode, Onoki was shocked by the power he gained after consuming the Golden Bee Bread Pill, feeling as if he could kill Madara Uchiha.

Of course, Onoki knew that this was an illusion brought about by the surge in power, but this powerful force still gave Onoki a lot of confidence, making him feel that he could easily kill a mere white snake sage.

As the saying goes, "An old man, in a moment of youthful exuberance!"

……

Hidden Mist Village.

The Third Mizukage was unconcerned about the plight of Kumogakure; he was currently preparing for the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) ritual.

"Yuki-onna, Kyokotsu, Kappa, Ao-oni, Aka-oni, Aoandon, Mokumokuren, No-kimura, Kisame, Same-oni... The celestial and terrestrial yokai of today barely meet the requirements for holding the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) ceremony."

"However, one more element is missing: the Box of Bliss in Kusagakure."

The Third Mizukage was thinking about the information regarding the Box of Elysium.

The Box of Bliss, as a vessel that bears the negative power of the ninja world, is quite suitable as a container for the birth of a lord of demons and monsters.

The Box of Bliss has four faces on its four sides, representing joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. It is said to be a divine artifact that can grant any wish and is the ultimate weapon of the Sage of Six Paths.

Legend has it that during the time of the Sage of Six Paths, Kusagakure almost gained control of the entire world through it.

However, from this moment on, the Box of Bliss has belonged to Kirigakure since ancient times.
