"In the past few days, looking at everything in the Rain Country, I seem to have seen the future of this world!"

Oonoki sighed.

"The Uchiha clan leader, now the Rain Shadow, must have mastered natural energy. His aura is completely different from that of a ninja."

"And the former White Flash, Hatake Sakumo, has become unfathomable in power."

"As for the other jonin and chunin-level ninjas, their overall strength has already surpassed that of other great nations."

Having said that, Ōnoki turned to look at his two disciples, his sons.

"You have also been looking for their young masters to spar with these days, so you should be very clear about this matter!"

Hearing this, Akatsuki nodded: "Their ninjas have mastered many ninjutsu and are very difficult to deal with."

"The ninjutsu of the Hidden Rain Village is open to everyone."

Oonoki sighed.

After this sentence, the three people beside him fell silent.

Because this kind of thing is simply impossible in other countries. It is also one of the reasons why the Hidden Rain Village was able to rise so quickly in a short period of time.

After all, no hidden village could open up everything so generously, and no civilian ninja could receive such abundant training resources.

"If only we could do that!"

Heitu gritted his teeth.

But after he finished speaking, he sighed.

It's so hard.

The wealthy families in each village probably can't do this. In the ninja world, there is a strict hierarchy.

The wealthy and the common people are originally two different groups.

The shackles in between are not so easy to break.

Unless, a completely new force breaks through everything.

Obviously, the Land of Earth does not have such conditions.

"After returning to the village, have the entire village be on alert!"

"The Rain Country, I'm afraid, will start a war in the near future."

Oonoki's eyes flashed, and he spoke again.

"war?"

The three looked horrified.

-

The fact was just as Ōnoki had judged. Although he did not receive any intelligence, he could not hide the layout of the Rain Village and the tense atmosphere beneath the calm.

Having served as the Tsuchikage for so many years, he knew too well the atmosphere before a war.

Only a month later, the war began.

Yuyin Village.

"Nagato, Yahiko, Konan, Shisui!"

"You four have led the Akatsuki organization for many years and have a lot of experience, so this time, the operation against the Grass Country will be in your charge!"

Fugaku looked serious and spoke in a deep voice to the four people in front of him.

"Yes!"

Nagato and his four companions responded loudly.

"Sakumo, the war on the Western Front is up to you."

Then, Fugaku spoke to the man next to him.

Sakumo nodded seriously.

"Itachi, you have no experience in war, so just stay with Sakumo this time."

Fugaku then turned to his eldest son in front of him and said.

"Yes, Father!"

Itachi nodded.

"Chief Kaguya, please lead the Kaguya clan and the ninjas in the village to take charge of the southern front and conquer the Kingdom of Rivers!"

Fugaku looked solemn.

"Yes, Lord Rain Shadow!"

The Kaguya clan leader's eyes flashed with spiritual power, and he shouted in a deep voice.

"The first operational goal of this operation is to conquer the Torijikoku on the east, the Kusakoku and Takikoku on the west, and the Kawanokkoku on the south."

"After these countries are under our control, the second step of the plan will be to conquer the Frost Country, the Field Country, and the Iron Country while resisting the pressure from other major powers!"

"When the plan is completed, our country will become the sixth largest country, no less powerful than the other five!"

Fugaku took a deep breath, stood up, and looked at the people in front of him.

"Gentlemen, this is the first step in the rise of our Rain Country, and it is also the most important battle!"

"Use war to seek peace, and peace will prevail!"

"Although we cannot put an end to the conflict in the entire ninja world for the time being, we can make ourselves stronger so that our loved ones and compatriots can live more safely in this world."

"For this, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I can accept it!"

When everyone heard these words, their eyes flickered and they nodded heavily.

On the day.

The sun was shining brightly in Yuyin Village, and the streets were bustling with people, no different from usual.

But at the entrance of the village, figures were moving quickly and rushing into the dense forest ahead.

"Eastern Front Army, follow me!"

Yahiko shouted.

The ninja team behind him followed closely and disappeared in a few flashes.

"Western Front, set off immediately!"

"Southern Front, hold your weapons tightly. We, the Hyuga clan, will charge in the front and show you what war is all about!"

The shouts echoed in the dense forest, and then the three teams went their separate ways and headed towards their respective goals.

The war has begun!

The road to the rise of the Rain Country also begins!

Chapter 534 Reactions of various countries

The border of the Grass Country.

"Tick tock~"

A drop of rain fell on the ground and quickly seeped in. Then, the sky, which was clear a second ago, became overcast at a speed visible to the naked eye, and fine rain and mist blocked the view.

"What a sudden rain!"

"Yes, the sky was clear just a second ago!"

The Grass Country Ninja stationed here muttered strangely and quickly hid in the woods.

The rain was getting heavier and denser, and visibility was getting worse.

"Wait, is there a figure ahead?"

Suddenly, a ninja looked towards the direction of the Rain Country.

The rain made the view hazy and obscured the vision, making it difficult to see the specific situation on the other side.

"no!"

"How could anyone go out in such heavy rain?"

The companion looked over, saw nothing, and looked away again.

Afterwards, they fell into silence and no longer communicated.

To them, today was just another ordinary day. Wars between small countries were mostly supplementary wars between big countries.

In today's peaceful situation, small countries have long been in a relatively balanced and stable state, and incidents will not easily arise.

Therefore, the mission of guarding the border is actually the easiest.

But they did not notice that as they passed through the rain in front of them, in the woods 500 meters ahead, a series of figures were already standing on the branches, looking coldly over there.

At the end of the team, a group of ninjas were making hand seals and staring at the sky.

"Rain Tiger Freedom Technique!"

One of them closed his eyes and could clearly see the specific situation of the Grass Country Ninjas on the border line 500 meters away.

"The enemy consists of about five teams, fifteen people, one jonin, four chuunins, and the rest are genin!"

"Nothing was found for us!"

After a moment, one of them opened his eyes and spoke.

"The Rain Tiger Freedom Technique perfectly blocked their vision, but we can clearly sense the enemy's every move through this rain."

Yahiko stared ahead with a smile on his face.

"Should we attack directly, or further explore the enemy situation?"

Nagato asked.

"Attack!"

"This war should not be dragged on for too long, otherwise it will easily attract the attention of other major powers."

"No one will allow us to rise!"

Yahiko suppressed his smile and spoke in a deep voice.

Nagato nodded.

Soon, the team sent a message, and the Rain Ninjas in the forest all had solemn expressions, and a solemn atmosphere filled the air.

The rain was getting heavier and denser, splashing up a layer of mist on the ground.

The team responsible for performing the ninjutsu gradually began to sweat on their foreheads.

They are a specially trained and selected perception class, proficient in the Rain Tiger Free Technique. The purpose is to ensure perfect control of the battlefield situation during combat.

"There's nothing to hesitate about!"

"The purpose of our coming here is already very clear!"

"attack!"

Yahiko's voice was cold, echoing in everyone's ears, and he swung his right hand violently.

"Kunai Throwing Class!"

"You are responsible for the first round of fire coverage. Execute immediately!"

As soon as the words came out, figures rushed out of the woods, leaping quickly in the rain, and when they reached the attack distance.

"Kunai Throwing Squad, attack!"

A loud shout was heard, startling the Grass Country ninjas who were hiding from the rain under a tree, causing them to look up in confusion.

The next second, densely packed kunai flew out, rubbing against the air and making a dense whooshing sound.

"puff!"

Almost at the same time, the Grass Ninja was horrified to find that his companion, who was standing in front of him a second ago, was pierced by a kunai, bleeding, and fell to the ground with a look of fear and confusion in his eyes.
