Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Ohnoki naturally wouldn't say much.

For those who have a sense of the overall situation and will safeguard the interests of the ninja village.

Ohnoki will be very tolerant as well.

It should be said that the older generation in the other four major ninja villages seem to be very reasonable, far-sighted and broad-minded.

The only difference is that the F4 of Konohagakure are getting worse than each other as they get older.

Compared with old guys like Ōnoki, Chiyo, Ebizo, and Genshi, he is not even a little bit inferior.

This is really no joke.

Konoha's F4 really uses age as the dividing line, a very perfect arc. From youth to middle age, there is a leader who grows rapidly and shows excellence and wisdom. Then when age enters the downhill slope, each one becomes more stubborn and stupider than the other.

It can bring Konoha back to its peak from its declining state in the First Ninja World War, or it can lead Konoha from its peak period into the abyss step by step.

This is the F4 of Konohagakure Village.

He is completely different from Ōnoki and others.

"My opinion? Does it matter? In the end, you make the decision, right? And it seems to me that you have already made up your mind, right?"

Lao Zi snorted lightly, glanced at Ohnoki who was sitting on the main seat, and spoke in a tone that seemed to be very disdainful.

This is absolutely not the attitude of treating Ōnoki as a Kage.

Ohnoki, however, still looked calm.

"How can I know if you don't tell me? I will definitely not listen to your opinion. The situation this time is very different from the previous ones. In the three Ninja World Wars, the protagonists have always been our five major ninja villages, but today is different. Therefore, no matter how outrageous your opinion is, as long as it is really beneficial to our village, I will definitely adopt it."

Oonoki leaned forward slightly and said to Lao Zi with a faint smile.

"Huh? Then my attitude is to take advantage of this opportunity to send troops to continue to severely damage the Hidden Cloud Village. In the Third Shinobi World War, we had a mortal feud with the Hidden Cloud Village. The Fourth Raikage was definitely thinking about revenge on our Hidden Rock Village all the time. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as we weaken the Hidden Cloud Village, our Hidden Rock Village's eastern front will be much safer!"

Lao Zi raised his eyebrows, smiled coldly, and then expressed his opinion without any hesitation.

"Destroy the Hidden Cloud Village?"

"Old Zisang is still so bold."

'Isn't this a very appropriate approach?'

"Master Lao Zi is still so direct."

Huang Tu, Yan Jue and others in the following position also changed their expressions slightly, especially those Yan ninjas at the back, who began to communicate with each other subconsciously with their eyes.

Chapter 303 Reasonable Response

"Wow? This is indeed a very legitimate reason. There are three tailed beasts in the power group of Uzumaki Menma. From the current point of view, it should be confirmed that the alliance between Takigakure Village and Kusagakure Village was established around this Menma-kun. In this way, the southeast area of ​​our ninja village will have to face a newly rising behemoth, further damaging the Kumogakure Village. It seems to help our own Iwagakure Village to eliminate the threat from the east, but isn't it also helping Uzumaki Menma and others? By then, won't the threat from the southeast be even greater?"

Sitting in the main seat, Ohnoki straightened his body, looked at Lao Zi on the right with an interested look, and spoke slowly.

"Tsk, the threat from the southeast? Would you, Ohnoki, have the same reckless personality as that Raikage? As long as we put all our main forces forward, what are the mere Takigakure and Kusagakure villages? That Nine-Tails kid was able to defeat the Raikage kid, so he does have some strength, but would you, Ohnoki, be afraid? And at the very least, there is Konoha. Right now, the one who is most worried about the Nine-Tails kid is Konoha, right? The worst result for us is that we can attack the Nine-Tails kid together with Konoha, but the opportunity for the Kumogakure will be gone if we miss it. We must push the front line forward, bring the Frost Kingdom and the Sound Kingdom completely into the sphere of influence of our Iwagakure Village, and further suppress the Kumogakure Village. Only then can the power of our Iwagakure Village be further released, and we can gain more benefits for our Iwagakure Village. Besides, don’t you have an alliance with that kid? You are not making full use of it!?"

Lao Zi sneered.

After a slight pause, he continued.

"Giving timely assistance is much better than adding icing on the cake, and there are many more bargaining chips to fight for. You, Dayeki, are not going to tell me that I don't know how to use these, right?"

Fully stated reasons.

Directly point out the pros and cons.

As Lao Zi’s attitude became clear.

The eye contact between the other Rock Ninjas in the following positions also became more frequent. Needless to say, Huang Tu and Yan Jue also frowned slightly and really began to seriously consider Lao Zi's opinion.

It seems so.

It would indeed be more appropriate to choose to fulfill the covenant and severely damage the Hidden Cloud Village?

At least it is in line with the interests of the Iwagakure Village at this stage. As for the future?

Yan Jue was the same as Lao Zi. He didn't think that Menma could really cause any waves. Their geographical location was too bad.

It was so bad that they were almost surrounded by the three major ninja villages.

There is no direct border with the Hidden Cloud Village.

But in the power group built by Menma.

To the northwest is Iwagakure Village.

To the southeast is the Hidden Leaf Village.

Then there is the Sand Village in the southwest.

Once the three major ninja villages join forces and press forward with all their strength, Yanzetsu really believes that the forces of Takigakure and Kusagakure built by Menma will definitely collapse.

In that case.

Now, using Menma to severely damage the biggest enemy of their own ninja village is indeed the most correct and reasonable approach.

"Hahaha, Lao Zi, Lao Zi, it still has to be you."

And Oonoki, who was sitting in the main seat, also laughed wildly.

Because the opinion expressed by Lao Zi at this moment is Oonoki's own attitude.

In the past, although Lao Zi and Ōnoki had very incompatible personalities and opposite opinions on many matters, there were always a few things on which the two of them would reach a very subtle rhythm of harmony.

Everything Lao Zi just said.

This is what Ōnoki was thinking in his heart.

Of course, there is another point that Lao Zi did not say, or did not think of. If their Iwagakure Village "supports" Menma in this way, they will definitely make a good impression. If the Kumogakure Village, Konohagakure Village, and Mist Village really make up their minds to destroy Uzumaki Menma in the future, their Iwagakure Village can also use a little trick and provide "insufficient support in time". When that group of forces is almost wiped out, he, Ōnoki, can legitimately take in Menma and others.

This is a way to kill two birds with one stone.

Even if there are some things, Menma can see them.

But this is a naked conspiracy.

In front of you.

Oonoki believes that Menma will be a smart person, both now and in the future.

"Old Zi is right. Our Iwagakure is a ninja village that values ​​credibility. The covenant must be fulfilled. Huang Tu, send someone to negotiate with Menma immediately. The subsequent pressure from the Kumogakure will be handed over to our Iwagakure. Let them concentrate on dealing with Konoha and the Kirigakure. Everything will be carried out according to the covenant. This time, we will not only take back the sphere of influence that the Kumogakure has encroached on over the years, but also deal a heavy blow to the Kumogakure ninjas. The northern territory belongs to our Iwagakure ninjas!"

Oonoki suddenly stood up and said with great pride.

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage!"

In the bottom position.

Huang Tu, Yan Zetsu and other Rock Ninjas all bowed together and replied in a deep voice.

Lao Zi, who was sitting on the side, was stunned for a moment, then he squinted his eyes slightly and snorted with a hint of dissatisfaction as if the sound came from his nose.

Until now, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki of the Iwagakure Village still doesn't understand that he was fooled by the old man on the main seat.

But Lao Zi didn't say much.

After so many years, he has long been used to it.

The plan was made.

A comprehensive order.

The Iwagakure troops also gathered immediately. Unlike the previous small-scale fights, this time Ohnoki was obviously going to spend a lot of money. Not only did he send his own son to fight in person, but in order to prevent accidents, in addition to Akagi who was still on the front line, Lao Zi would also fight together. The Iwagakure troops that were recruited, plus the garrison troops that were previously stationed on the eastern border, totaled more than 5,000 people. Ohnoki wanted to advance the front line in one breath and take back all the lost interests in the past. Originally, in the battle more than ten years ago when the Third Raikage died, the Iwagakure troops had a very good opportunity.

But on the one hand, the Iwagakure ninja also paid a terrible price in that battle.

Secondly, the southern invasion plan was completely crushed by Konoha.

Although it was not a large army, the Iwagakure ninjas led by Toushi were all elites. After suffering losses on two fronts, the Iwagakure Village, which seemed to be the victorious party, was also unable to re-invade the Kumogakure Village. Later, when the Iwagakure ninjas recovered, the Kumogakure Village, under the leadership of the Fourth Raikage, was the first to recover.

The opportunity was missed.

now!

The deaths and injuries of more than 3,000 Cloud Ninjas, their rout, the serious injury of the current Raikage, and the loss of the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, definitely dealt a heavy blow to the Hidden Cloud Village.

When other ninja villages such as Konoha are too busy to take care of them.

This is their chance for the Iwagakure Village.

Ohnoki wants to take advantage of the weakness of the Hidden Cloud Village and eat them all up in one go!

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

The Iwagakure Village is taking large-scale action.

One after another, the Iwagakure ninjas received different orders from all directions, entered different formations and gathered.

"War, it seems our Iwagakure Village will also join the war."

"Tsk tsk, I heard that the Hidden Cloud Village was defeated miserably. It seems that the Hidden Taki Village and the Hidden Kusagakure Village, especially the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, are really powerful."

"I wonder what decision our Tsuchikage-sama will make this time?"

"I think we should beat the fallen dog, right?"

"Well, I can't say for sure."

"It's war again..."

"How many people will be killed or injured this time..."

"Hail! Iwagakure Village!!"

The war was expected.

For the people living in the ninja village, this has become commonplace. In the past few decades, there have been three wars that swept the entire ninja world. And in the so-called peaceful time in between, small wars have never stopped, even though the number of ninjas does not seem to be very large.

But the destructive power brought by a Genin is far beyond that of an ordinary person.

Not to mention those battles at the jonin level that involve using large-scale techniques.

A battle.

You can level an area.

Ninjas are born to fight.

The people in Iwagakure Village have long been accustomed to such a life, but no matter how accustomed they are, everyone still has different feelings. Some are excited, some are curious, and some are worried.

But no matter what attitude these people have.

It is impossible to change the decision of the top leaders of the Ninja Village.

The actions of the Rock Ninja would naturally attract the attention of all the ninja villages in the Ninja World. The first to receive the news would naturally be the Menma side, which was the closest and also an ally. It was almost the moment when the Rock Ninja were mobilized on a large scale and headed directly towards the eastern part of the country.

Menma, who was in Takigakure Village and had just completed the finishing work and supervised Takigakure and Kusagakure Village to build a stable joint defense line, also received the news at the first time.

This is a conspiracy that can be easily seen through.

But no matter what Ohnoki thought, the actions of the Iwagakure Village were ultimately developing in a direction that was beneficial to Menma and his group.

The moment Menma received the news, he immediately informed Shibuki and others, and further convened a high-level meeting in the village.

"Is this true? Menma-kun, that Tsuchikage-sama and the Iwagakure Village have reached an alliance agreement with you, and are now sending a large army to attack the Kumogakure ninja?"

In the government hall of Takigakure Village.

In the right position.

Ah Jun widened his eyes, stared at Menma with an incredible expression and asked.

"Ah, this is the news personally sent by the Tsuchikage-sama. You may want to take a look, Jun-san. However, this is also predictable. The Third Tsuchikage-sama is a naked realist. Attacking the Hidden Cloud Village is the most in line with the interests of their ninja village. You can all take a look."

Menma smiled gently, threw the scroll in his hand towards Ajun, and spoke softly.

Ah Jun caught it with his backhand, and after carefully reading the contents recorded in it, the joy between his brows became more and more intense.
