Escape From Konoha

The streets and alleys are covered with first-level wanted documents, which were personally issued by the Daiming Palace of Wave Country.

A large number of government soldiers filled the streets, and even the villages and towns in the countryside would have soldiers patrolling.

The wanted person is named Kesha, a fisherman from a foreign country. He is accused of disrupting national security. Anyone found and reported will receive a reward of one million taels. If Kesha can be caught, Daming Mansion will reward him with tens of millions of taels.

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man.

The people began to search for Kaisha.

As for the incident of going to Daming Mansion to cause trouble a few days ago, with such a huge reward, the people have forgotten about it.

Among them, especially the gangsters and the like, are the most active in joining the search team.

For them, whether they report or catch a wanted criminal, the reward they receive can allow them to enjoy themselves for a long time.

Although some people spoke for Kesha and hoped that Daming Prefecture officials would re-investigate, these voices were quickly suppressed by force.

Public opinion was controlled by force, and the direction of events was also in the hands of the Daming Palace of Wave Country.

At this time, the most important administrative department of a country showed unparalleled and efficient action capabilities.

Even the sea has been blocked in all aspects, and both entry and exit are strictly controlled.

On the other hand, the Daming Mansion of the Land of Waves is also actively negotiating with government officials of the Land of Demons on debts, but this matter has nothing to do with the people at the bottom, and no information has been revealed.

◎

Coastside.

Breathing the air in the mist, the sea has become completely white at some point.

Yiji stood on the slightly damp beach, looking at the other side of the sea.

Not long after, there were footsteps behind him, and someone was approaching him.

Yiji didn't look back and knew who the visitor was, so she said:

"Long time no see, Mr. Kesha. How are you? Are your physical injuries getting better? How does it feel to have your life back?"

"Feeling? This should be the result that Miss Yiji has always expected."

When he came to Yiji's side, Kesha's body was wrapped with medical gauze on the seriously injured area, and he sighed softly.

"It seems that Mr. Kesha has not spent these few days in jail in vain."

Hearing what Kesha said, Yiji also knew that such a plan full of loopholes would be discovered by the other party. Rather, this was originally part of the information that he wanted to reveal to Kesha.

Kesha glanced at the marks of torture on his body and smiled bitterly.

"Thanks to you, most of my life is basically gone. However, I still want to ask, is there no other way?"

Among the workers and farmers, there must be hidden elements of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

Otherwise, Yi Ji's actions would not be so smooth.

Neither he nor Dazna was actually powerless to prevent this from happening now.

Some workers who know the truth cannot tolerate it any longer.

"The corpse of a superior person will kill the people below. Mr. Kesha should not ask me this question, but ask yourself, are you willing to continue to be dominated by such a superior person?"

Yiji turned her head and looked straight at Kaisha.

Kesha gasped for breath and fell silent.

Are you willing to be dominated by such a superior?

In other words, is such a superior still worthy of their support?

This is a very challenging idea.

When status and lineage become the key to ruling a country, rather than ability and character, then a big question mark will be placed on the actions of such a superior.

Kesha believed that after these things, the rest of the people did not dare to say anything, but the workers must have other thoughts in their hearts.

Whether passively or actively, things are irreversible.

"But...even if we succeed in overthrowing the nobles, will it really be useful?"

Such confusion appeared in Kesha's eyes.

Indeed, he was dissatisfied with the behavior of the nobles and believed that such people were no longer worthy of the love of the people.

However, after overthrowing these people, what will the illiterate farmers and workers do to govern the country?

The results may be even worse than in a country run by aristocrats.

This is not pessimism, but fact.

Or should we continue to follow the example of the nobles and correct their status and lineage?

No, this approach is just repeating the mistakes of the past.

This is where Kaisha is most confused.

"It is of course useless to just overthrow it. Continuing the behavior of the aristocracy is just going back to the origin of history. Changing the most fundamental system of a country is not something that can be accomplished overnight. Be prepared for a long-term battle. .Whether it is dealing with domestic or more complex international borders, this is a very severe test for the country of Waves."

Ichigo said so calmly.

The traditional system still occupies the mainstream of the world. Even people like Kesha only had the idea of ​​overthrowing the nobility. I am afraid that their hearts are full of all kinds of hesitation and confusion about how to build a new country. Not confident.

This is a road full of thorns.

"That's right, I thought it was too simple."

Although he knew the result, Kesha still sighed.

Since you are considering going against the nobles, you cannot have the idea of ​​'continuing to live your own life after being defeated'. This is not only irresponsible behavior, but will also push the Kingdom of Waves into an even more terrifying abyss.

"But don't worry too much, our ghost country will assist you. How to establish a new country system, how to popularize education, open up people's wisdom, and build a new type of country that is different from traditional countries. This is our ghost country Things I want to do in the Land of Waves.”

Ichiji said frankly to Kesha.

"Can you tell me what the reason is? As far as I know, the Kingdom of Waves does not have the power to resist the Kingdom of Ghosts. It can even be said that even people like me are not the ones that must be used."

Kesha is self-aware.

This is an era of power dominated by ninjas.

Even if he is not a ninja, he has seen how terrifying ninjas can be.

The wave country dam was damaged, and hundreds of ordinary people were needed to repair the gate. As a result, only one ninja was needed to greatly reduce the pressure of repairing the gate.

They walk smoothly in the rapids of the sea, no matter how bad the environment is, they are always unimpeded.

Being able to spit fire, create water flow, release thunder and lightning, erect strong walls... all kinds of strange abilities are amazing.

The areas that ninjas are best at are killing and fighting, and they dominate all voices in war.

A powerful ninja can instantly kill hundreds of ordinary people with one strike.

This is also why, the number of ninjas participating in the Ninja World War is only a few thousand, but the trauma caused to this land and the terrifying pressure on the masses are powerful destructive power that hundreds of thousands of ordinary soldiers may not be able to match.

This is the existence called ninja.

The Kingdom of Ghosts demonstrated its military strength with the War of the Kingdom of the Wind. The Kingdom of Ghosts, which can rival the military power of the five major countries, only needs to be dispatched... No, just the debt collector ninja troop belonging to the Ziyuan Flower Merchant Guild is enough. Have the power to suppress the entire country of waves.

To ninjas, ordinary people are no different than ants.

This is what Kesha doesn't understand.

The kingdom of ghosts with such power is enough to push down the kingdom of waves with absolute force.

His physical fitness is only relatively good among ordinary people.

The samurai who were able to fight back against the famous family that day probably had some inside story, and they did not succeed by relying on their own strength.

Ichihime didn't answer right away, she raised her arm and pointed her index finger to the other side of the sea.

Kaisha followed Yiji's line of sight, and only saw the vast white mist on the sea, which was bottomless. He didn't know what Yiji was indicating.

"The goal of the kingdom of ghosts is not the country of waves, but this land, the country on the other side of the sea."

Hearing what Yi Ji said, Kesha was shocked.

The country closest to the land of waves, and across the sea, only one country in the ninja world meets the standard.

The leader of the five great nations - the Fire Nation.

In this ninja world, it is the country with the most abundant resources, the largest population, and the vast land.

Konoha Ninja Village, which is interdependent with the daimyo of the Land of Fire, has won three consecutive ninja world wars.

It is the well-deserved number one ninja village.

Even ordinary people like Kesha know what kind of existence the Fire Country and Konoha are.

It is one of the countries that should not be messed with in the ninja world.

Kesha doesn't know much about strategy, but he also understands that the country of waves is very important to the country of ghosts. Otherwise, the Kingdom of Ghosts would not go around in circles and cause chaos in the Kingdom of Waves.

"In other words, the country of Waves is a victim, right?"

"No. The Country of Fire is the ultimate goal, and the Country of Waves is the mid-point goal, not dispensable. In the future, the Country of Ghosts will also need the power of the Country of Waves to stabilize this area. Therefore, sandwiched between two powerful countries It is incorrect to say that it is a victim of time. The top leaders of the government and military have no intention of abandoning this land."

"Appreciate further details."

Kesha sighed.

Although Kazuki only spoke calmly, Kesha knew that the country of Waves had no right to refuse.

If he refuses, he, including Dazna and others, will die quietly.

Then, the Kingdom of Ghosts will replace them with another group of obedient people to help them deal with the Kingdom of Fire.

It's probably a dilemma.

"After Mr. Kesha's uprising, we, the Kingdom of Ghosts, will provide free international assistance to the Country of Waves for five years."

Kazuhime offered the reward given by the government and military of the Kingdom of Demons.

After all, if you want to pull the Kingdom of Waves onto the chariot of the Kingdom of Ghosts, you definitely can't let the Kingdom of Waves work for you without giving any benefits.

If the purpose is to squeeze, then with such an alliance, the Kingdom of Waves may sell out the Kingdom of Ghosts if it changes hands later.

Why the alliance between Oni Country and Kirigakure Village is unbreakable at this stage.

Although there is friendship between the top leaders of the two countries, friendship cannot be eaten as food. The people under them all need a higher quality of life.

The only reliable way for lasting friendship is for both sides to share their needs and adhere to the same front.

Unilateral supply, such an alliance, will cause problems sooner or later.

The previous thing is what the Kingdom of Ghost needs the Kingdom of Waves to do. Now, the Kingdom of Ghosts naturally has to pay the Kingdom of Waves so that the Kingdom of Waves can join the Kingdom of Ghosts' camp without any complaints and stick to the same front.

"Free aid?"

Kesha didn't seem to have thought that Kazuto, or the Kingdom of Demons, would offer such a condition, and his eyes widened in surprise.

"Excuse me, is this free assistance in all fields?"

"That's not entirely true. Such international free aid is limited to agricultural technology, industrial technology, education, medical care and other fields. Military aid, on the other hand, is paid aid. In addition, free aid is not indefinite and is limited to five years. In In the past five years, the Kingdom of Ghosts will upgrade the agriculture and industrial technology of the Kingdom of Waves for free, as well as the schools and medical fields."

"Five years?"

"Yes, free aid for a period of five years. After five years, if the Country of Waves wants to receive international assistance from the Country of Ghosts, it will be paid aid, not free aid, just like military aid."

Even so, five years of free assistance is no less than a piece of pie in the sky for the country of Waves.

From all aspects, this is the way to strengthen the country.

As a person at the bottom, Kesha knows very well what the country of Waves lacks.

What the Kingdom of Ghosts provides free support are the parts that this country lacks most.

"The conditions have been laid out. We will provide weapons for early development. Including public opinion building, we will also order the Ziyuan Flower Chamber of Commerce to fully cooperate. As for international pressure, you don't need to care too much. The Kingdom of Thunder is currently It is an ally of the Kingdom of Ghosts. The Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth are beyond the reach of this place. The Kingdom of Water is diplomatically conservative, and the Kingdom of Fire will soon be overwhelmed by its own affairs. This is a god-given opportunity for both of us."

Yiji outlined her future plans, including all the possible international environment.

Not using ninjas as combat force is to avoid escalation of the battle. Otherwise, the current Wave Country would not be able to withstand the collision of the military might of two powerful countries.

Kesha doesn't know whether Yi Ji's prediction will come true, but for the workers headed by him, there is no way out.

"Then, happy to cooperate, Miss Yiji."

"Well, it's a pleasure to work with you."

◎

Konoha 47, early February.

The land of rain.

A heavily armed ninja troop was moving through the rain at extremely fast speeds.

His face and body were wet from the rain.

Even the chill in the air couldn't stop this ninja force in the slightest.

The number of this ninja force is around 800.

Judging from the neat queue and uniform ninja uniforms, they are not mercenaries in the underground black market, but regular ninja troops belonging to a certain country.

Without long-term training, it would be difficult for them to maintain such a neat formation in such a high-speed march.

But unlike the ninja troops cultivated by Ninja Village, generally speaking, ninjas belonging to Ninja Village will wear foreheads that mark their identity and position.

But in the Warring States Period before the era of one country and one village, ninjas from different camps did not wear forehead protectors to distinguish them.

Instead, use the family crest.

The Warring States Period was a time when the ninja clan was rampant.

If their position is uncertain, countries can pay them to hire them to fight for themselves.

Just like the Uchiha clan, they were once employed by the Kingdom of Thunder, and their cooperative relationship with the Kingdom of Fire was not close.

It was only because of the alliance with the Senju clan that the Konoha Ninja Village was established in the Land of Fire.

Therefore, during the Warring States Period, family crests were the most important symbol to distinguish ninja camps.

The same is true for this ninja force of about 800 people.

They did not wear the ninja forehead protectors that are very popular nowadays. On their uniform ninja uniforms, there was only the family crest.

That was the family crest that only the great families of the Fire Country had.

It also means that they are the private ninja army of the Fire Country Daimyo, taking orders from the Fire Country Daimyo.

Even though Ninja Village is a symbol of the country's military power, the daimyo of the country who yearns for power and power will not put their eggs in one basket.

The Ninja Village can be relied on, but it cannot be relied on to maintain everything.

Therefore, the Daming Prefecture, headed by the five major powers, while assisting the establishment of Ninja Village, also vigorously cultivated its own private army.

However, due to the lack of blood succession boundaries and secret art inheritance of the ninja, the private ninja army directly belonging to the daimyo of the five major countries will appear weak in combat effectiveness compared with the regular ninja troops of the ninja village.

But this kind of weakness is only relative to the ninja villages of the five major countries.

Facing the ninja villages of small countries and the underground black market, the private ninja armies under the daimyo of the five major countries are not easy to dismiss.

Without such private armed forces, the daimyo of the five major countries would not be able to maintain the power of monarchs within their own countries.

However, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire felt distressed for a long time by bringing out a private army of 800 ninjas to suppress the Hidden Rain Village.

Although the eight hundred ninjas were far from the entire private army controlled by the Daming Palace, they still devoted most of the ninja power of the Daming Palace.

Therefore, the whole team launched a raid and was only allowed to succeed but not fail.

The ninjas only had a look of solemnity and coldness on their faces, and they said nothing, making the atmosphere even more depressing on a rainy and cloudy day.

There was lightning and thunder in the sky, which seemed to indicate that this was an unquiet dusk.

Night fell.

——The huge battleship located on the river is the aircraft carrier battleship of the Kingdom of Ghosts docked in the Kingdom of Rain.

A metal object like a mechanical bird, like a flying ninja, soars freely in the sky, shuttles freely between lightnings.

This is a mechanical bird scout integrated with the aircraft carrier. It is used to keep an eye on the movement status of the enemy's troops. Through special signals, it is transmitted to the monitoring room of the aircraft carrier remotely. Compared with the wide-range perception ninjutsu, it is more accurate. The accuracy of the information is second only to Byakugan's investigative ability.

But the reconnaissance range is larger than that of Byakugan.

About eight hundred chakra life reaction sources were displayed on the screen in a control room full of futuristic machinery.

This army is approaching the front camp of Yuyin Village, intending to wipe out all the living forces of Yuyin Village in one go, and end all disputes here with lightning speed.

The chakra reactions of twenty-one of them were very abnormal, and their intensity far exceeded that of the other ninjas.

"In terms of chakra strength alone, he has reached the standard of a jounin."

In the aircraft carrier control room, the staff responsible for monitoring said calmly.

Among this ninja force, there are twenty-one people with abnormal chakra strength.

Twenty-one jinn.

It is nothing on the battlefield of a great power, and it cannot tilt the weight of a large-scale war.

But on the battlefield of a small country, twenty-one jounin are enough to control the direction of a war.

Such a powerful army, considering the strength of a small country, is absolutely impossible to resist.

In addition, on the monitoring screen, there is another very dense station of chakra reaction sources.

The number of chakra reaction sources far exceeds 800 people.

The number of ninjas reached more than 1,500.

It can also be seen from the number that this is not the power that Yuyin Village can use, and the ninja troops of the ghost country have already shrunk to the aircraft carrier warship and several frigates.

The only ones outside were the wandering witches responsible for gathering intelligence.

Therefore, where such a larger number of ninja troops came from, or appeared at such a critical time, there is only one possibility left-Konoha Ninja Village.

In order to prevent the kingdom of ghosts from breaking the balance, the Konoha ninja troops stationed in the west of the country of fire stepped on the spot in advance to contain the ninja troops in the kingdom of ghosts, so as to prevent the kingdom of ghosts from providing actual military assistance to Yuyin.

If the kingdom of ghosts intends to do that, then the thousand and five hundred Konoha ninjas will all overwhelm and start a firepower confrontation with the kingdom of ghosts on this big river.

It also means that the Kingdom of Fire has indeed been forced into a desperate situation, and even considered the possibility of an all-out war with the Kingdom of Ghosts.

"As expected of the Fire Nation, which is the leader of the five major nations, the will to fight still exists when necessary."

The ninja commander in the control room sighed softly.

The ninja troops of the Kingdom of Oni will not move, and neither will the ninja troops of Konoha.

Once the Kingdom of Demons takes action, Konoha will be ready for a full-scale war with the Kingdom of Demons.

Even the Kingdom of Wind in the southwest may take corresponding measures to contain the forces of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

It is nothing more than the start of the Fourth Ninja War.

On the contrary, if the ninjas in the kingdom of ghosts do not act on the sidelines, the power of Konoha will die down, and it will evolve into a contest between the kingdom of fire and Yuyin village.

Whether or not to start the Fourth Ninja War depends only on the thoughts of the top management of the Kingdom of Demons.

"The courage is commendable, but this war does not require us to do it ourselves. The people of Konoha don't need to pay attention to it, just let them guard it. Now let us inform Yuyin that we can start operations. One o'clock direction, then Strike with aerial firepower covering a ten-kilometer position."

The ninja commander of the Ghost Country gave the order.

"yes."

The communicators wearing headsets nodded heavily and tapped on the keyboard to transmit the information to Yuyin's forward camp.

…

Thunder and lightning.

The rumbling thunder pierced through the dark clouds and resounded through the earth.

The rain wet everyone's body, but everyone walked in unison, with the same goal, crossing the plains and wasteland at high speed.

No matter how complicated the environment is, it is not worth mentioning to ninjas.

"Hurry up, before seven o'clock in the evening, according to the order of the daimyo, the battle must be ended!"

The leading ninja's face was very calm.

His body was filled with a violent chakra aura.

The strange red chakra covered his body, and with the power enhanced by the forbidden drug, he easily entered the ranks of jounin.

He has sufficient confidence in the power he currently possesses.

No matter who stands in front of him, it seems that they can be easily torn into pieces.

There was such an invincible desire that expanded in my heart.

The feeling of increased strength was wonderful, and he fell in love with this feeling of becoming stronger.

With this kind of self, he might be able to compete with the five strongest Kage in the ninja world. The leading ninja suddenly had such an idea.

Because he suddenly gained such powerful power, his state of mind naturally became different.

When he had this idea, something suddenly came from the distance, causing him to subconsciously raise his head and look for something in the sky.

At first he was searching, and then as if being induced, more people started searching.

Then, more than 800 ninjas, with their sensitive ears, all discovered the location of the sound.

The air vibrated uneasily, like a hard and cold piece of iron hitting the body. For some reason, the body became extremely heavy.

First there is a black dot, then a second black dot, then a third black dot.

More black spots appeared, rapidly growing in size in the tunnel vision.

The trajectory it flew through the sky was like tearing a dark crack in the sky, which has not healed for a long time.

"Is that... a flying ninja tool?"

The leading ninja discovered the true identity of those black spots.

Flying from the sky were twenty flying ninja tools.

Each flying ninja is piloted and controlled by an Amegakure ninja.

"What, do you think we are Sunagakure ninjas from the Land of Wind?"

The leading ninja scoffed.

Besides, Sunagakure Village in the Kingdom of Wind was caught off guard at the beginning by the flying ninja from the Kingdom of Demons simply because of its lack of experience in dealing with enemies.

However, now that all five major countries have introduced such flying ninja tools, the advantages and disadvantages of flying ninja tools are all clear at a glance.

The weapons loaded on it are still kunai, or they are tied with detonating charms on kunai and projected downwards. The destructive power is actually far less than ninjutsu. It just takes advantage of the air.

As long as the people are spread out, this kind of flying ninja tool is actually far less harmful than the rumors say.

In terms of detecting enemy situations, flying ninja tools are worthy of recognition.

The leading ninja made a gesture and was about to disperse the troops when the sound of breaking through the air rang in his ears.

Under the light of rain and lightning, the things fired from the flying ninja tool were shining, giving off the unique luster of metal.

"It's not kunai and detonating charms..."

What flew out from the flying ninja tool was not a combination of kunai and detonating talismans.

But metal marbles.

All he felt was the faint breath of chakra.

What is such a thing...?

Use this to defeat them?

No one answered this question.

The leading ninja condensed a layer of red chakra feathers on his body, with red chakra bubbles on it, and a chakra tail extended from behind his butt.

He rushed forward as fast as lightning.

"Stop joking, use this kind of toy-"

The red chakra tail swept away, trying to sweep away the two metal marbles flying towards him like garbage.

His voice stopped abruptly.

Swallowed by a sudden horrific explosion.

The fire caused by the explosion penetrated the chakra feather coat on his body and exploded to pieces. His body fell from the sky like tattered strips of cloth.

Most of his body was missing.

Even the hagoromo of the tailed beast's chakra was as fragile as tissue paper in the violent explosion.

The Amegakure ninjas above would not stop attacking as this happened.

Taking this as a signal, more metal marbles rained down from the flying ninja tool. Not one by one, but a dozen of these metal marbles were instantly launched from a flying ninja tool.

There were a total of twenty flying ninjas here, and in just an instant, more than three hundred metal explosive bombs scattered from the sky.

Scream, scream, scream.

Screams could be heard everywhere.

The ninja sword turned into pieces and flew into the air.

The same is true for the bloody meat pieces. It was not one or two people, nor a dozen people, but hundreds of ninjas. In an instant, they were baptized by the meat grinding machine. Under the terrifying explosion power of the metal explosive bomb, they even counterattacked. There is no way to keep it.

Under the intense firepower coverage, I simply forgot how to fight.

By the time he reacted, the person had already flown into the air, his body was blown to pieces, and his hands and feet were missing.

Even if he was lucky enough to be standing far away, he was thrown away by the strong shock wave generated by the explosion, and the ribs in his chest were also broken. Before he could leave the battlefield, marbles fell beside him and were swallowed up by the fire.

The overwhelming firepower coverage, and under the precise control of human beings, whether it is concentrated coverage or dispersed coverage, is a nightmare that the enemy is unwilling to wake up from.

It was as if there were earth dragons rolling in the earth, and the explosions and terrifying shock waves caused by the explosion rolled the earth over and over again.

Scraping the ground three feet away is not enough to describe such a scene.

At this time, let alone using ninjutsu to counterattack, whether you can find a safe spot on the ground to stand on is a question worthy of discussion.

As if some switch was turned on, the sky and the earth flashed black and white.

This is an explosive power that the detonating talisman cannot match.

In the sky covered with thunder and lightning, the mechanical bird ruthlessly scanned the Fire Country ninjas who were being slaughtered on the earth, using its mechanical eyes to indifferently record what happened here one by one.
