“It directly confirmed the country’s status as a desert overlord in one fell swoop.
"Relying on the insight into history and excellent judgment of the situation, the Sunagakure Ninja Village under the leadership of Salmon finally became the biggest winner in the military expansion cycle.
"It also provides a solid military foundation for the Kingdom of Wind to secure its position among the five major powers."
Who am I, where am I, why am I standing here.
Aburame Zhiwei was in a daze, feeling dizzy for a while.
On the other side, Jiraiya also felt a little sleepy and couldn't help but ask:
"So, what does this have to do with the current situation?"
After noticing everyone's sleepiness, Nara Shikaku sighed, then sped up the pace of his speech and said quickly:
“However, the geographical environment of being located in a desert, arid and with little rain, is simply not enough to sustain the Kingdom of Wind’s hegemony.
“Since the Second Kazekage abdicated, Sunagakure Ninja Village has inevitably embarked on a cycle of decline.
"The third Kazekage disappeared, the fourth Kazekage died at the hands of Orochimaru, and the two most powerful warriors died unexpectedly.
“And the precious wealth left behind by Samana has also been weathered and corroded by time.
"There is no successor to the Puppetry. Chiyo's mother-in-law is old, but the leaders of the younger generation have not been heard of, and the new generation has not been able to grow up in time.
"The most recognized puppet master in today's world is actually just a traitorous ninja."
Nara Shikaku took a breath, there was no mockery in his tone, and there was no regret either.
Some are just a wise man’s objective insight into the current situation. Just listen to him continue:
"On the other hand, geniuses who can manipulate sand are extremely rare. Existing information shows that this is simply a blood inheritance limit.
"At this time, with Gaara's departure, looking around, the Sand Village has no successors, and it can be said that the talent is dwindling.
"In addition, in the previous battle to defend Konoha, the Sunagakure Ninja Village also suffered heavy losses. Judging from the above situation, their strength has fallen to the lowest point in history."
Nara Shikaku said with a serious face:
"After two years of wasted time, now, despite the large population of Sunagakure Ninja Village, there is no longer a strong hand to protect the village.
"To be frank, with Gaara's departure, the final straw that broke the camel's back, the Sand Village is no longer worthy of being one of the five great ninja villages.
"This is not an opinion, but an objective fact that is about to happen!"
"!"
Jiraiya looked at the man in front of him with a little surprise.
This guy looks a bit weak, and even has the well-known reputation of being "henpecked".
Such a guy actually said such hawkish and strong remarks directly from his mouth.
"Are you saying that you want us to send troops immediately to take down the Kingdom of Wind?"
Aburame Zhi came back to her senses slightly, pondered for a moment, and asked in a lowered voice.
"?"
How did this come to a conclusion?
Nara Shikaku glanced at the other person with a look that looked like a fool, but that look only passed by briefly.
Soon, he returned to his polite tone and said to Aburame Zhiwei:
"no."
Lu Jiu shook his head and patiently explained:
"We, the Hidden Leaf Village, occupy the most fertile and suitable land in the Ninja World.
“Whether it’s the climate, agriculture, or natural landscape, it’s the most livable place.
"We don't need that piece of yellow sand with nothing in it. On the contrary, all other big countries are eyeing us covetously, and it is a place of war on all sides.
"In all the past ninja wars, we have always been in a defensive niche.
"The current situation is that the butterfly has flapped its wings, and the Sunagakure Ninja Village will surely fall into chaos and cause disaster.
"As the news spreads, there will definitely be big moves in the ninja world.
“For example, the Kingdom of Earth borders the Kingdom of Wind and has constant friction all year round.
"And the only Kingdom of Thunder that insists on maintaining military expansion and is keen on collecting ninjutsu from everywhere.
“I am afraid that these countries will not miss this opportunity for expansion, and may even take advantage of the chaos to further invade us.
"At that time, once the war breaks out. I'm afraid."
"."
silence.
Jiraiya and the others knew exactly what Nara Shikaku's words meant.
The three people in the office are all ninjas who have experienced two ninja wars.
As Nara Shikaku continued his story, the smell of blood and fire seemed to fill the air once again.
Many memories that no one wants to think about again appear in everyone's mind in different forms.
Clouds floated outside the window, and children's laughter came up from downstairs.
The shadow, the shadow of war, is approaching step by step.
In this broken ninja world, perhaps peace is just an illusion, and the war never really stops.
".The political system is like a pendulum, swinging back and forth between the two states mentioned above under the influence of history.
"If you follow the trend, you will prosper; if you go against the trend, you will decline. Only by accurately stepping on the rhythm of history can the village prosper forever!
"On the contrary, whether it is a continuous expansion of arms or a contracting peace, it will inevitably face the punishment of history in a rhythm cycle that does not belong to itself.
“The former is like yesterday’s sand hidden.
"The latter is the Konoha of tomorrow!"
"!!"
"Right now, it is an era of military expansion!
"No matter what our wishes are, if we continue to shrink, we will surely learn a tragic lesson!
"The war is coming! Many people will die again.
"The time left for Konoha is running out!"
On the side, Aburame Zhiwei was completely shocked by such rebellious remarks.
"How could you say such a thing? This is simply not in line with the spirit of the Will of Fire!"
After regaining consciousness, Aburame Zhiwei immediately expressed her stance and said stutteringly.
"No, one of our own?"
Nara Shikaku didn't look at him, but looked directly at the Hokage in front of him and said lightly.
"Go on."
Jiraiya showed no expression and motioned for Shikaku to continue.
Seeing this, Nara Shikaku took a deep breath and concluded his speech with eight words:
"Expand the army, intimidate. Protect, recruit and surrender."
-
The continuous drizzle has been falling for eleven days.
Even in the rainy Ninja Village where it rains all year round, this is considered a relatively rare phenomenon.
The streets in the village were empty, and the green stone paths spiraled upward layer by layer.
The surrounding buildings are mostly surrounded by metal steel.
Stone is the base and steel is the body.
Under the towering spire, there are slender beams and a vertical upward feeling.
The atmosphere of Gothic architecture looks particularly sad against the backdrop of continuous rain.
In the Kingdom of Rain, in the Rain Hidden Ninja Village, in the tallest tower in the west.
Tendo Pain sat in front of the window on the top of the tower, looking at the drizzle in the sky.
His expression was solemn, as if he was thinking about something.
This man had bright orange hair and was also wearing a black robe.
The clothes are embroidered with red auspicious clouds.
There was a row of black iron nails on both sides of the man's nose, on his lower lip, and on both ears.
Perhaps because of the metal decoration, this originally friendly and amiable face became cold and unapproachable.
Suddenly, Tiandao Payne's expression changed slightly.
Beside him, the space ripples were shaking, and a guy with a swirling orange mask on his face appeared out of nowhere.
"What are you doing here? Uchiha, Madara."
Tiandao Payne asked coldly.
"Having a child is worth caring about."
The person who came was none other than Obito Uchiha.
But in front of Tendo Pain, he has always existed as Uchiha Madara.
"If I remember correctly, we should have reached a consensus.
"The time is not yet ripe. Within two years, the Akatsuki organization will not take any additional actions."
Tiandao Payne said calmly.
In the shadows in the distance, a slender woman with a cold face walked out slowly.
She had short light blue hair and a light blue paper flower on the right side of her head.
