Chapter 685: Tsuchikage personally goes into battle
The Kingdom of Rain, the City of Six Paths.
A group of ninjas wearing turbans and forehead protectors from Sunagakure Village walked into the Six Paths Castle.
The arrival of Sunagakure's team did not attract the attention of the Ninja ninja or the residents of Liudou Castle.
Since the news of Soyousuke's defeat of Sarutobi Hiruzen spread, Liudou Castle has quickly become more lively than ever.
There are many people coming to buy houses, and they bet that the Ninja Sect can withstand the pressure from Konoha.
By then, Liudou Castle will not only be the safest place in the Land of Rain, but may even be one of the safest places in the Ninja World, and housing prices will definitely soar.
There are many or even more people selling their houses. Many people feel that a small ninja organization like the Ninja Sect cannot withstand the wrath of the five major ninja villages.
Even if the leader is strong enough, if the battle continues, the final winner will only be Konoha.
People in the Kingdom of Rain are very familiar with this process. After all, they have experienced it once.
In addition to those who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune, there are also many ninjas who are curious about Soyousuke who can defeat the Third Hokage and come here to watch the fun.
Of course, intelligence ninjas from various ninja villages or ninja forces are also indispensable.
"This Six Paths Castle is really lively. How long has this town been established? Three years? It's incredible." The Arisagakure ninja sighed.
He felt that Six Paths City was more lively than Sand Hidden Village. It was obviously just a town founded by a small force that had just emerged.
"Busty? This kind of bustle is not a good thing." Yashamaru shook his head slightly.
At the moment when the five major ninja villages have ceased war, Liudo Castle, which has a huge conflict with Konoha, can be said to be the center of the whirlpool of the entire ninja world.
Due to the potential shown by the Ninja Sect, not only Konoha, but also the ninja forces surrounding the Ninja Sect may not want it to be easy for the Ninja Sect.
"Let's start our mission, don't waste time, we don't have much time." Yashamaru said.
They came to Liudao City not to speculate in real estate, but to drive a wedge between Ninja and Iwagakure and win Iwagakure to their side.
The Sunagakures nodded and began to look for the Iwagakure ninja.
In fact, it was not just one of their teams that came from Sunagakure, but the other team did not wear Sunagakure clothes, but entered Liudou Castle in disguise.
The two teams need to do different things.
The task of Team Yashamaru is to contact the person in charge of Iwagakure in Liudo Castle, and then tell the other party about the dangers of Ninja Sect, and initially express their intention to cooperate.
But this is only the first step.
Although interests come first and others come second, Iwagakure has been cooperating with the Ninja Sect for a long time after all. Rasa did not expect Yashamaru to convince Iwagakure directly by talking.
The Sunagakure team that came in disguise is the key point.
They will frame the Ninja Sect to drive a wedge between Iwagakure and the Ninja Sect.
When gaps appeared in the cooperation between Iwagakure and Ninzong, Sunagakure increased his efforts, and it became difficult to maintain the cooperation between Ninzong and Iwagakure.
However, in order not to be exposed and to prevent the action from being discovered by Iwagakure and the Ninja Sect, time is of the essence.
If Sunagakure's front foot was just rejected by Iwagakure, something would happen to the ninja sect the next day, and Iwagakure would easily suspect Sunagakure.
The separation and contact between Yashamaru and Iwagakure must be carried out at the same time.
In this way, coupled with Sunagakure's covert actions, the possibility of exposure is greatly reduced.
When Iwagakure checked, he could only find out that only one group of Sunagakure entered Liudou Castle that day, and he went to find them.
In order to reduce the possibility of exposure, the two Sunagakure teams did not even contact each other at all, and only agreed on a time to take action.
Only if there is no way to complete the task within the agreed time, we will contact you and inform the other party that the task is temporarily suspended.
That's why Yashamaru said that they didn't have much time.
Of course, it is not too troublesome to find someone in an honest way, otherwise this task will be too difficult to complete.
"Huh? There are actually ninjas who are good at puppetry in Liudou City?" A puppet master Jonin was stunned when he saw the arm of a Ninja ninja.
Although the arm looks very much like a real arm, a prosthetic arm is a prosthetic arm after all. For someone like him who works with puppets every day, he can still recognize it if he looks closely.
The Sunagakure puppet master was very surprised. Transforming the human body is not a simple technology.
When the Ninja Ninja saw the Sunagakure Ninja staring at his arm, he originally wanted to sell his surgery.
Nowadays, due to the limited production of prosthetic limbs and the fact that only Xie can do the surgery, except for the Ninja members, they have to charge a very expensive fee.
After seeing the forehead protector on his head, the Ninja ninja gave up the idea of selling it.
Sunagakure Village is the holy land of puppetry, and it is the most developed ninja force in puppetry in the entire ninja world.
The prosthetic limbs of their Ninja Sect are obviously a type of puppet technology. It would be bad if the business secrets were stolen by Sunagakure Village.
Although the Sunagakure puppet master was curious, he had a mission, so he had to suppress his inner curiosity and continue to perform the mission.
With the quick action of Yashamaru and others, they quickly found Iwagakure.
Then Yashamaru revealed his identity as the fourth generation Kazekage's brother-in-law at the right time, and successfully met the person in charge of Iwagakure in Rokudo Castle - Iwagakure Jounin Huoguang.
"After the Ninja clan took control of the Kingdom of Rain, they quickly launched an action against the Kingdom of Birds. Their plans were very big..." Yashamaru began to tell the Ninja clan about the wolfish ambitions of the Ninja clan according to the plan.
But what Yashamaru didn't expect was that Huo Guang didn't show an annoyed look and angrily scolded him for ruining the friendship between Ninja and Iwagakure, but instead showed a smile with a hint of surprise? Yashamaru paused for a moment to make sure he didn't say the wrong thing before continuing.
Huo Guang politely waited for Yashamaru to finish before speaking, "You are absolutely right. I feel the same way. I didn't expect that other forces were aware of the Ninja Sect's ambitions."
Yakshamaru:?
Does the Ninja Sect and Iwagakure still need to separate? It's purely superficial cooperation.
These two forces have never been together before, so how can they provoke them to separate?
Yashamaru is a little confused. The plan to separate one dragon from another has just taken the first step, so why is it over?
"Lord Yashamaru." Just when Yashamaru was about to discuss cooperation between the two villages with Huo Guang, a Sunagakure who was waiting outside came over with an anxious look on his face.
"Sorry, excuse me." Yashamaru apologized, and then walked towards the Sunagakure ninja.
"Something bad happened. Another team was arrested by the ninja ninja, and the plan failed." The Sunagakure ninja said in a low voice.
Yakshamaru:……
This plan was both smooth and unsatisfactory.
"Don't be nervous, Iwagakure doesn't seem to want the Ninja Sect to continue to grow stronger." Yashamaru reassured.
If you get caught, get caught. If he can reach an agreement with Iwagakure, then the mission will be considered completed.
Then Yashamaru and Huo Guang talked a lot.
The two of them reprimanded the Ninja Sect for their ambitions, worrying that the Ninja Sect would have a negative impact on the newly peaceful Ninja world.
However, whenever Yashamaru mentioned cooperation, Huoguang became vague and did not express his position until the end, only saying that he wanted to ask the Tsuchikage for instructions.
Yashamaru was not angry because of this. After all, he came to seek cooperation and had already been prepared for this.
It would be better to say that the current situation is already very good. Their team can almost complete the mission just by relying on them.
The fire sent Yashamaru away and quickly summoned Iwagakure for a meeting, and then sent Sunagakure's matters to Iwagakure Village.
"Huo Guang, this guy did a good job this time." Ohnoki smiled after reading the information.
Iwagakure also has the idea of union with Sunagakure, but when it comes to cooperation, the party being sought out will definitely have an advantage.
So Huoguang's move is very good. It not only shows Iwagakure's dissatisfaction with the Ninja Sect, but also shows a somewhat unsteady attitude.
"In this case, there should be no problem on Sunagakure's side, but it is a bit difficult for Kusanoin Village, a small ninja village, to open up the situation." Onoki showed a thoughtful expression.
During the Third Ninja War, Iwagakure secretly reached cooperation with the leader of the Kusanagi, and the Kusakunin village secretly helped Iwagakure.
Later, Konoha intervened and destroyed the cooperation between the two parties. The original grass ninja leader turned into a monster and was killed. The grass ninja turned against Iwagakure, and the grass ninja in turn helped Konoha fight against Iwagakure.
With the strength of Iwagakure, it is of course easy to take over a grass ninja village. Not all small countries have strong men like Soyousuke.
But beating a dog depends on the owner. Now the Kusanagi village can barely be regarded as Konoha's younger brother, so he can't use violence casually.
In fact, for Iwagakure Village, the addition of Kusakunin Village is not important, that is, it can save some cannon fodder and genin without affecting the overall situation.
What Onoki really values is Konoha's attitude, or the Ninja information hidden under Konoha's attitude.
If the Grass Ninja Village is determined not to take action against the Ninja Sect, is it possible that it is the will of Konoha?
How did Hiruzen Sarutobi lose in that battle, and why did Mu Yue directly succeed him as Hokage?
"Since we are going to be on the opposite side of the Ninja Sect in the future, why not take advantage of the fact that the friendship still exists and use this friendship to gather information." An idea flashed in Ohnoki's mind.
He found that he had fallen into a blind spot in his thinking, and had been trying to find out the battle process from the Ninja Sect and Konoha.
In fact, as an ally of the Ninja Sect, he did not need to do this. He sent someone or directly went to the Ninja Sect himself, saying that he wanted to see the strength of the Ninja Master and have a friendly competition.
With the current relationship between Iwagakure and the Ninja sect, can Soyousuke refuse?
The relationship between Iwagakure and the Ninja Sect is not like that between the Ninja Sect and Konoha. Even if the strong man on Iwagakure's side loses, Iwagakure can still ask the Ninja Sect to keep it secret.
In this way, once the information is obtained, he will not lose face because of it, and he can set the pace like Sarutobi Hiruzen.
As for whether the Ninja Sect will break the news after the war begins, it doesn't matter.
They have already started a war. Do they still care about this negative news?
"I'd better go there." Ohnogi thought about it and thought it would be more reliable to go by himself.
Sarutobi Hiruzen lost to Soyousuke, and others may not be able to test Soyousuke's true abilities if they fight.
He is confident that his strength will not be worse than that of Hiruzen Sarutobi. He can definitely get the information that Hiruzen Sarutobi can get from the battle.
Thinking of this, Onoki quickly held a high-level meeting to discuss the matter.
After a while of discussion, Onoki’s proposal was recognized by most of the senior officials.
Although Iwagakure is preparing to fall out with the Ninja Sect, it has not yet happened. There is no danger in having a friendship discussion with allies. The worst is to bring more guards.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had a grudge against the Ninja Sect, could successfully return to Konoha. Of course, their third generation Tsuchikage could not be left behind in the Ninja Sect.
