In fact, Iwagakure and Sunagakure have secretly sent ninjas to the Land of Lightning.

It is indeed a three-party alliance, but it is not Iwagakure, Sunagakure and the Shinobi Clan, but the three major ninja villages of Iwagakure, Sunagakure and Kumogakure.

Compared to the Ninja Clan that would grab the cake, Iwagakure and Sunagakure are more inclined to Kumogakure.

During the Third Shinobi World War, they attacked each other, but even the strongest Konoha was strengthening its contacts with its allies, so the three major ninja villages had to temporarily put aside their previous hatred.

In order not to arouse Konoha's vigilance, Iwagakure and Sunagakure deliberately arranged this.

However, Iwagakure and Sunagakure did their best to put on a good show. They indeed sent many talented ninjas from the village, and the captains of the exchange meeting were all well-known ninjas in the village.

After Chiyo led the team to Liudao Castle, she left all the work to her deputy. She only came to see Scorpion, not to really work.

On the first day Chiyo arrived at the Ninja Sect, she asked the Ninja Sect ninja for information about Scorpion.

To her surprise, the ninja she asked didn't know Scorpion.

Chiyo was puzzled by this. With Scorpion's ability, how could he remain unknown in the Ninja Clan?

However, Chiyo didn't care too much. She thought that Sasori might be worried that the Sunagakure people would pursue the Ninja Clan. After all, if you really counted it, Sasori was considered a traitor to the Sunagakure people.

So Chiyo used her identity to express her desire to meet with Scorpion to the top leaders of the Ninja Clan, and this time there was no accident.

After the Ninja Clan confirmed Scorpion's idea, they quickly gave a reply and arranged a specific time.

On the day of meeting.

Chiyo specially picked out the casual clothes that Scorpion wore most often when she was in the Sand Village, and packed them up in advance before going to the Ninja Clan reception room.

For Chiyo, this meeting is very important. If she fails, she will lose her last bloodline.

She even thought about knocking Scorpion out and taking him away, but quickly gave up.

Because she knew Scorpion well, she knew that this would not solve the problem unless she imprisoned Scorpion forever, otherwise doing so would only make the situation worse.

After entering the reception room, Chiyo looked at the familiar yet slightly unfamiliar red-haired boy, and was a little dazed for a moment.

What was familiar was that Scorpion's appearance had not changed much, and he was still the grandson he was familiar with.

What was strange was that the usually cold Scorpio was actually chatting with someone she didn't know like a friend.

"Scorpion, did you learn puppetry from your grandmother?"

"Yes, what? You want to say, 'So you're the grandson of a legendary puppeteer. No wonder you're so good at puppetry'?"

"No, but your grandmother is indeed very famous. Even someone like me who doesn't know much about puppetry has heard of her."

"What's the point of being famous? Will your enemies let you go just because of your teacher's fame?"

Hearing this, the light in Chiyo's eyes dimmed a little.

As soon as Scorpion said this, Chiyo knew that her chances of success today were slim.

"Scorpion, how are you doing recently? Is there anything in the Land of Rain that you find difficult to get used to?" Chiyo composed herself and asked Scorpion with an extremely kind smile.

"It's okay, nothing strange." Scorpion turned to look at Chiyo and replied.

With his strength, how could he not notice Chiyo's arrival? What he just said was deliberately meant for Chiyo to hear.

Scorpion was not surprised that Chiyo knew that he was in the Ninja Sect. Firstly, he did not hide his identity in the Ninja Sect and Rokudo Castle, and secondly, it was about the puppet prosthesis.

But Chiyo suddenly came to me, which is worth thinking about.

After thinking about it carefully, Scorpion felt that Chiyo might want him to return to the Sand Village.

But it is impossible for Scorpion to go back with Chiyo. Scorpion does not blame Chiyo for the death of his parents. It has nothing to do with Chiyo.

It was because of the Third Kazekage, Scorpion had killed the Third Kazekage and transformed him into a human puppet.

In other words, the Sand Village doesn't know about it now. If they knew, Scorpion would not only not be able to return to the Sand Village, but would immediately become the most wanted criminal in the Sand Village.

If this incident hadn't happened, Scorpio might not have gone back, but if this incident had happened, Scorpio would definitely not go back.

If the truth comes out, Chiyo will be implicated because of him.

"Could you please step out for a moment? I have some private matters I want to discuss with Scorpion." Chiyo looked at Nagato and said.

Although she is Scorpion's grandmother, it is still too much to poach him in front of him.

"Yeah." Nagato nodded and walked out of the reception room, leaving the space to his grandmother and grandson.

After Nagato left, Chiyo quickly formed hand seals to condense chakra, quickly setting up a simple small barrier, then looked at Scorpion and said:

"Scorpion, come back to the Sand Village with me. It will be very dangerous to stay in the Ninja Clan."

"It's okay even if you don't want to return to the Sand Village, but don't stay in the Ninja Clan any longer. The Ninja Clan is heading towards the abyss, and this is a road that cannot be traveled."

Chiyo really doesn't have a good impression of the Ninja Clan. During the Second Ninja World War, the Rain Village had already proved how difficult it was to become the sixth largest ninja force.

The Ninja Clan has to face not just one big ninja village, but all the big ninja villages around it.

In other words, the Ninja Clan has not reached that critical point yet. If the time really comes, Chiyo has no doubt that the three major ninja villages of Konoha, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure will take action together.

They may not necessarily form an alliance, but they will definitely send out ninja troops.

"Is there a ninja village that is completely non-dangerous?" Scorpion asked.

The profession of ninja itself is a profession that lives on the edge of a knife.

"You know, this is different." Chiyo shook her head.

How can the danger of a ninja's mission be equated with such a big war?

"In my opinion, it's more meaningful to stay in the Ninja Clan." Scorpion replied calmly.

"You know, the goal of the Ninja Clan is actually peace in the Ninja World, not becoming the strongest ninja force or dominating the Ninja World."

"There are many ninja organizations in the ninja world that have this goal." Chiyo said.

"But the Ninja Clan did it." Scorpion said with a serious look.

"Under the governance of the Ninja Clan, the Rain Country has truly become peaceful, and its domestic security is even better than that of the Wind Country."

Scorpion recounts the changes that the Ninja Clan has brought to the Rain Country since its establishment.

"Because this is their own country," Chiyo retorted.

She didn't believe that there were so many true pacifists in the world. If there really were, why would the ninja world be plagued by constant wars?

“They’re doing the same thing in Bird Country.”

“This is about expanding power.”

It was the actions of the Ninja Clan in the Land of Birds that aroused the vigilance of the Sunagakure. If left unchecked and allowed to do the same in every small country, the Ninja Clan's strength would expand rapidly.

"Since you have said so, there is no need to talk any further. You can't convince me to return to the Sand Village, and I can't convince you to understand the uniqueness of the Ninja Clan." Scorpion replied calmly.

During these days in the Ninja Sect, Scorpion, as a bystander, clearly saw what the Ninja Sect was doing.

Not to mention Chiyo, even some ordinary Shinobi from the Shinobi Sect may not understand the Shinobi Sect as well as he does.

Chiyo was speechless.

She originally thought that Scorpion joined the Ninja Sect for some special reason, but she didn't expect that Scorpion simply recognized the Ninja Sect.

"Can we talk again in a couple of days?" Chiyo felt that nothing could be achieved through today's conversation.

"I don't think it's necessary."

"Just think of it as accompanying an old lonely man like me, okay?"

“I don’t necessarily have the time.”

After hearing Scorpion's last words, Chiyo felt temporarily relieved and said goodbye to Scorpion and left.

Twenty seconds after Chiyo left, Nagato returned to the reception room.

"What's wrong?" Nagato asked with concern.

He saw that Qian Dai was not in a good mood, and it didn't seem like they were having a pleasant conversation with long-lost relatives.

"What else can you do? If your relatives were captured by some ninja force, would you be happy?" Scorpion asked.

"According to the conditions given by the teacher, Scorpion, your sentence is about to end." Nagato said after thinking for a while.

Mu Yue's condition is that if Scorpion can help the Ninja Clan master puppet prosthetic technology, his sentence can be reduced by five years, and Nagato has the right to help Scorpion reduce his sentence by up to four years.

Nagato was very satisfied with Scorpion's performance and had already reduced his sentence to the maximum extent possible.

Scorpion only needs to successfully help a ninja from the Ninja Clan master the puppet prosthetic technology, and his sentence will end immediately.

"Do you think it's easy to teach those idiots puppetry?" Scorpion said dissatisfiedly, then stood up and walked towards the laboratory alone.

Nagato showed a puzzled expression, not understanding how he had just offended Scorpion.

……

Land of Thunder, a western port town.

While the entire ninja world's attention was focused on Six Paths Castle, Sand Village and Iwagakure sent ninjas to the Land of Lightning.

In order to reduce the risk of exposure, they did not even choose any major ninja village as the meeting place, but the western port of the Land of Lightning.

"The Ninja Clan has evil ambitions, and Konoha and Kirigakure have big plans. I'm afraid a new war will come soon." Yashamaru spoke first.

As he spoke, Yashamaru carefully observed the expressions of the Iwagakure and Kumogakure representatives out of the corner of his eye, paying special attention to the Kumogakure representative.

The Land of Lightning is not like the Land of Wind, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Rain, which border each other. Even if the Rain Village becomes the sixth largest ninja force, the impact on the Village of Cloud will not be as great as that on the Village of Rock and the Village of Sand.

The most important thing is that the Ninja Clan will definitely not be able to become the real sixth largest ninja force in the short term, so Yashamaru also brought up Konoha and Kirigakure.

The Ninja Clan had been unable to influence Kumogakure for a long time, but Konoha could. Yashamaru didn't believe that Kumogakure wasn't worried about Konoha becoming the only dominant ninja village and becoming a super ninja village.

As Yashamaru expected, the Kumogakure representative's expression turned somewhat grim.

"That's right. At such a critical moment, our three major ninja villages must work together and not let Konoha succeed." Tsuchi said.

The people within Kumogakure are actually aware of the potential of the Ninja Clan, but they generally believe that the Ninja Clan's potential cannot be realized.

If Konoha received the full support of Kirigakure and their three major ninja villages joined forces, the final outcome would be unpredictable.

"Recently, our Lord Tsuchikage took a risk himself and obtained a very important piece of information." As soon as Lieshi opened his mouth, the meeting room instantly became quiet.

Yashamaru and Dodai looked at the cracked stone in surprise and curiosity.

If what Rishiki said was true, the fact that the Tsuchikage took the risk himself was important information.

And what level of information would it be if the Tsuchikage had to take risks to obtain it?

"Sosuke is actually underestimated."

Yashamaru and Dodai looked puzzled. Now people say that Sosuke is the strongest ninja in the ninja world. How can he be underestimated?

"Sosuke has strength far beyond that of the Kage. If we have to describe his strength, he is another ninja god." Lishi said seriously.

Originally, Iwagakure wanted to hide the information and trick Sunagakure, but Sunagakure would not be fooled for the time being, and the situation in the ninja world changed.

After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Iwagakure decided to release the intelligence on the Ninja Clan that they had discovered.

Anyway, Sand Village has not been betrayed yet, and Sand Village cannot give up Iwagakure, a powerful ally, just because Iwagakure might betray them.

"God of Ninja!" Dodai looked shocked.

Defeating Sarutobi Hiruzen and becoming the God of Ninja are two different concepts.

For example, the Third Raikage. There may be some Kumogakure ninjas who think that their own Raikage is stronger than the Third Hokage, but no one would ever think that the Third Raikage’s strength can rival that of the God of Ninja.

Even Mu Yue, who shone brightly in the Ninja World War, was only considered to have the potential to be the God of Ninja, but not to be the God of Ninja.

Yashamaru's expression was even more interesting, with surprise and a hint of relief.

You should know that the Sunagakure has been discussing how to deal with the Ninja Clan recently.

If a fight really breaks out, Sunagakure will definitely have no problem destroying the Ninja Clan, but if Sosuke retaliates with all his strength, Sunagakure will definitely be defeated.

This is revenge from the God of Ninja.

As for whether the information was true or not, Yashamaru couldn't think of any reason why Iwagakure would come up with false information.

In order to make Sand Village and Kumo Village temporarily put aside Konoha and deal with the Ninja Clan?

Sunagakure has always had a conflict of interest with the Shinobi Clan. As for Kumogakure, if this was false information, there would be no need for Kumogakure at all. Sunagakure and Iwagakure would be able to send the Shinobi Clan away safely without any accidents.

Chapter 706: Sosuke's Assassination Team

"If that's the case, then the Ninja Clan is actually more difficult to deal with than we imagined," said Yashamaru.
