Naruto: My setting is above yours.

Yamashiro Aoba dared not even think about it.

Xuanma snapped out of his daze and shook his head, saying, "I don't know yet."

"However, from the ninja village era to now, more than fifty years have passed, and quite a few ninja villages have been destroyed."

"Our ally in Konoha is Uzushio Village."

"Our enemy, the Sky Ninja Village."

These were all destroyed around the time of the Second Shinobi World War.

There are probably many more small ninja villages.

Isn't that how the Wind Demon Clan survived?

But if the Grass Village were destroyed, how many settings value would that provide?

Xuanma felt that he also deserved credit for this.

Sigh, it's getting worse and worse!

Xuanma felt a pang of shame for a second.

"How is our war with Iwagakure going now?"

Xuanma changed the subject.

Yamashiro Aoba said, "A stalemate."

"Although we are still outnumbered, we can hold them off."

"However, a defensive force was set up in the Land of Grass yesterday to guard against a surprise attack launched directly from the Land of Grass by the Iwa ninja."

"And the border of the Land of Rain is another example, which has greatly diluted our troop strength."

"Furthermore, I heard from Jiraiya and the others yesterday that the Hidden Cloud Village seems to be stirring again, and there have been signs of Kirigakure ninja along the eastern coast of the Land of Fire."

Xuanma listened with a hint of helplessness.

The Land of Fire is a really juicy piece of meat; everyone wants a bite.

Yamashiro Aoba continued, "You previously suggested that the Third Hokage come to the battlefield, but due to the relationship between Kumogakure and Kirigakure, he was unable to come."

This was a suggestion Xuanma made a couple of days ago.

Nodding, Xuanma let out a long sigh and said, "It seems the war won't end so quickly."

Yamashiro Aoba nodded, her eyes behind her sunglasses showing fatigue.

Such a high-intensity war tests not only physical strength, but even more so people's mental will.

Yamashiro Aoba only stayed for less than an hour before leaving.

Time flew by, and it was now September of Konoha Year 46.

If anyone compiles the history of the ninja world in the future, they will inevitably have to make a few notes about it.

On September 6, 1946, the Hidden Grass Village was besieged by the Hidden Rain Village.

On September 12, 1946, the Hidden Grass Village suffered heavy casualties and officially surrendered to the Hidden Rain Village.

Genma didn't know whether the Grass Ninja Village had participated in the war in the original timeline.

However, during Naruto's Chunin Exams, there were ninjas from the Grass Village participating.

Now, because of him, Kusagakure may very well be gone.

Therefore, when Genma heard this news from Aoba Yamashiro, he immediately opened the [Settings] to check.

The setting value was indeed increased by one item.

30 points setting.

Xuanma was a little surprised.

Is Kusagakure really that insignificant?

But upon closer examination, did the destruction of Kusagakure significantly alter the overall trajectory of the ninja world?

It seems not.

The Grass Village is to the Five Great Ninja Villages what an ordinary person is to key figures like Kakashi.

However, with the addition of the casualties from the fierce battles between Amegakure and Kusagakure during this period, the total set value has now reached 98 points.

This shows how fierce the battle was, with at least a thousand dead and wounded.

After a moment of silence for the Hidden Grass Village, Genma asked Yamashiro Aoba, "Did Hanzo personally lead the attack on the Hidden Grass Village?"

Yamashiro Aoba nodded: "Some ninjas from Kusagakure have escaped. According to the survivors, Hanzo used a deadly poison to besiege Kusagakure. Apart from a few who managed to break through, the rest surrendered."

"Some of those who broke through fled to the Land of Fire and joined us, while others seem to have gone north to Hozuki Castle."

As he spoke, Yamashiro Aoba sighed, "I never imagined that Kusagakure would be destroyed like this."

"It is said that the siege of Kusagakure has come at a great cost, with many people suffering from severe poisoning, and it is even rumored that Kusagakure has now become a dead end."

Xuanma shook his head: "That's an exaggeration."

"The poison of the salamander is indeed very potent; humans and animals will die quickly from it. However, Hanzo could not use the poison to envelop the entire Kusagakure village."

If what Yamashiro Aoba said is true, the settings he obtained are definitely more than these.

Genma then asked, "Is there any sign that Amegakure is attacking us?"

Yamashiro Aoba shook her head: "No, on the contrary, the power has contracted."

"Sakumo-sensei is worried that Iwagakure will break through from the Land of Grass, so he has led a team to provide support."

Xuanma's eyelids twitched violently upon hearing this.

However, considering the strength of his teacher, Hatake Sakumo, as long as he is not surrounded by hundreds of Iwa ninja, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Even if surrounded, you can use a spirit talisman to temporarily escape the battlefield.

Genma watched Yamashiro Aoba leave, then fell into deep thought.

The Battle of Kannabi Bridge seems to be drawing ever closer.

Should we do something?

"I can't keep an eye on Obito Uchiha all the time, but this time it seems like I can stake out his location."

"Leaving aside saving Obito Uchiha, who might be faking his death, it would be even better if we could capture a White Zetsu."

"However, at this point in time, Obito Uchiha and his group might not be assigned to such a dangerous mission."

Genma thought for a moment, then turned and went back to the wooden house.

Soon, he created a clone, which then transformed into a mole and burrowed out from underground.

Since the clones don't appear on the battlefield, they naturally won't be discovered by the Iwa ninja.

During this time, Genma has been holed up here confronting Onoki, but he has not been idle.

He has quite a few people splitting up and going out in different places.

For example, some secretly went to the Land of Wind, while others openly treated the wounded in the medical corps.

The former was undetectable by Iwa ninja, and the latter was beyond Onoki's control.

Genma hasn't participated in battles for so long, but he's actually improving Konoha's fighting strength in another way.

As long as they didn't die on the spot on the battlefield and successfully reached the medical camp alive, none of them died at the hands of Genma.

Previously, Iwagakure had tried to break through the medical camp several times, but Genma's clone was there, and no matter how many people went, they would all die, so they gave up.

Onoki also wanted to wipe out Konoha's medical team with a single Dust Release, but he couldn't because Genma was watching him.

But what can you do when Onoki doesn't have medical skills?

Although he was very annoyed by Genma's constant chatter, Onoki could only put up with it.

If the breakthrough in the Land of Grass goes smoothly, the stalemate will be broken!

If Konoha continues to reinforce its troops, Kirigakure and Kumogakure will definitely not be able to hold back any longer.

After splitting into two, Genma flew into the air again to chat with Onoki.

"Congratulations, Tsuchikage! Kusagakure is gone!"

Xuanma laughed.

Onoki said calmly, "This has nothing to do with Iwagakure."

Genma's eyes widened: "Really?"

"I do not believe."

"Kusagami Village is an ally of Iwagakure!"

Onoki retorted, "Kusagami is also your ally."

Genma sighed, his face full of regret and sorrow: "The Grass Village is indeed our ally, but so is the Rain Village, so we in Konoha have no choice but to remain neutral."

Currently, Amegakure has not broken ties with Konoha and remains an ally on the surface.

Onoki's lips twitched, and for a moment he didn't say something like "Amegakure is also an ally of Iwagakure".

Although he knew that Konoha probably already knew this information.

He's not some shameless Wood Release brat!

Seeing that Onoki remained silent again, Genma changed the subject and said, "Is Lord Tsuchikage waiting for Kirigakure and Kumogakure to make their move?"

"To be honest, even if they take action, Lord Tsuchikage cannot win this war."

Onoki said in a deep voice, "Wood Release brat, don't be so arrogant."

"Konoha is indeed the strongest of all the ninja villages, but even so, it is impossible for it to withstand the attacks of other ninja villages at the same time."

He felt that not only Kumogakure and Kirigakure, but also Sunagakure would follow suit.

And there's Amegakure!

He didn't believe Konoha could withstand an attack from six ninja villages!

Genma smiled at Onoki's words: "If the major ninja villages can cooperate effectively, then the Tsuchikage is indeed right."
