Global Card Master Era

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to argue, but soon his eyes flashed with loneliness.

Because what Ohnoki said is true.

Some people say that the weak stick together to survive, while the strong look up at the stars alone.

But the reality is that the strong unite with the stronger.

As the first Hokage who single-handedly created the shinobi village system, he left too many benefactors to Konoha.

The most fertile land belongs to the Fire Nation, which inevitably means that the Fire Nation, as a financial provider, has an economic strength that is far superior to that of ordinary large countries.

Economic strength will in turn drive the development of military strength. As the most important part of the Fire Nation's military strength, Konoha has allocated far more funds than other ninja villages.

High salary can cultivate more ninjas, and the number of ninjas is there, even if they go through big waves, they can leave a lot of growth and purification.

Not to mention, when Konoha was first established, many small ninja clans joined the entire ninja world.

Even relatively large-scale ninja clans such as the Inar, Deer, and Butterflies clan and the Aburame clan also participated in Konoha because of their ties.

Since the establishment of Konoha, according to the ideas of the first generation and the second generation, the members of the Senju clan have slowly separated from the Senju family.

Integrating into Konoha, integrating into the common people, integrating into the little ninja clan...

More than thirty years have passed, and there are countless civilians in Konoha who have more or less the blood of distant relatives of the Senju.

The ninja school system will frequently select people from the ninja clan and civilians who are suitable to become ninjas.

"I don't know what Lord Hashirama was thinking back then, but their original plan indeed provided you with abundant vitality for Konoha."

Thinking of this, Onoki's eyes were filled with regret.

If Iwagakure can have such a foundation, give him thirty years, and he can defeat all the ninja villages, including Konoha, until they only know the will of the rock.

So much so that the gang of Konoha ninjas are preaching the will of fire on the battlefield of the ninja world every day, which seems to be very noble but is actually not pragmatic at all.

"Okay, Onoki, I know you really want to laugh at me now~" Sarutobi Hiruzen did not have any comments about his evaluation on Onoki.

He never felt that he had done anything wrong, but he just felt that the power of the Konoha Chunin clan occupied too much of Konoha's grassroots power, and it was impossible to play without cutting it.

"No matter what, we can't let those two people continue to fight. If this continues, it will make people panic, and it will be very difficult to calm down the situation in the future."

Onoki nodded.

He also knows that compared to the direct destruction caused by war, the collapse of order under unstable situations is a huge harm that may seem inconspicuous, but can actually break bones and suck marrow.

"Tell me, what do you think?"

"Ohnoki, I need you to take action personally. I have a way to trick Uchiha Madara to death, but I need someone to create this opportunity for me."

"You don't think that we can participate in this war if we take action, do you?"

"Who knows if you don't try?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly.

He seemed to remember something, looking at the sun that was setting in the distance, reflected in his eyes, like a ball of fire.

Ohnoki was stunned for a moment, as if he was reacquainting himself with this old rival who had been fighting for many years for the first time.

"Are you ready to sacrifice yourself using forbidden techniques?" Otsutsuki whispered.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was holding a pipe in his mouth, was silent for a long time, and finally a relieved smile appeared on his face:

"To this day, I still don't think what Sensei (the Second Hokage) did was wrong."

"Everyone knows that the Uchiha clan is synonymous with power, but they have never thought about how dangerous this clan is."

"Chakra itself can transmit emotions. The closer a family is to the limit of blood inheritance, the greater the probability of being affected by chakra itself."

"Not to mention, they are Uchiha. The history of the Uchiha clan is almost as long as the history of the ninja world."

"Thousands of years have passed, and the emotions of each generation have been reflected in the chakra. This has destined the Uchiha clan to become more and more dangerous and increasingly uncontrollable."

"Ohnoki, it's not that I don't have confidence in Uchiha, nor do I have too much trust in the teacher. I just don't have any expectations for this ninja world."

"The ninja world is a slaughterhouse. The love and hatred reflected during this period are too complicated and dirty. They are passed down from generation to generation. Do you think there is more love or hate?"

The brightness in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes gradually dimmed, and in the end only a soft sigh remained:

"Ohnoki, the Uchiha clan has survived for too long, to the point where they can control the power of the Sharingan without learning at all."

"They are not only a race of love, but also a race of evil. Hatred is always more impressive than love."

"The ninja world has been fighting bloody battles for thousands of years. The malice buried in Uchiha chakra is too strong. Just like the disputes in the five major ninja villages, it will follow their bloodline-"

"Spread forever, circulate forever!"

Onoki's body stiffened for a moment, and for a moment he didn't know whether to refute the misunderstanding of Sarutobi Hiruzen's point of view.

In the end, all he could say was: "Are you planning to directly participate in this battle and then die fighting?"

"This is the best choice. From the first generation to the second generation, the will of fire has never been extinguished. I am old. In the dead of night, it is always easy for me to overthink."

"I know that I will become more and more afraid of death, and I will become less and less able to let go of the power in my hands. This is a good opportunity. If I lose my ambition in the future, I may never be able to do such a thing again."

"At least let me prove it one more time - the will of fire really exists!"

Onoki's mood became more and more complicated: "Okay, this time I help you, and I am also helping Iwagakure itself. If those two people continue to fight, they will attack our country of earth."

"But let me tell you in advance that once I find out that you can't kill Uchiha Madara, I will retreat as soon as possible."

"Compared with your family's great business in Konoha, if I die, there will be no one in Iwagakure who can take over my place and shoulder the pressure of your countries."

The Third Tsuchikage sighed quietly.

Once again seeing the level of fighting power that had quelled the Ninja World War, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not the only one who was disheartened.

In a daze, he remembered that when the Ninja Village was established, those two people worked together to easily penetrate the coalition forces of the major forces.

After this battle, the major ninja alliances were basically trampled by two people. They were both physically and mentally affected, and many of the top experts even died after consuming all their chakra.

In a short period of time, the various ninja clans no longer had the ability to start a war, so they chose to form a ninja village together out of fear.

Of course, there are also some ninjas who choose to "join if they can't beat them". This number is really quite large, and it is precisely because of this that the reputation of Konoha's strongest ninja village has been created.

"Dong dong dong~"

There was a knock at the door of the conference room.

"Please come in."

The door opened and Guan Muge walked in.

Ohnoki subconsciously took a step back.

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen, his eyes were full of fear: "Sarutobi, do you want to start an all-out war with our Earth Kingdom?"

Of course he recognized this man immediately, Uchiha Maki, one of the two Susanoo controllers now known to the entire ninja world.

But as we all know, Uchiha Mu is currently fighting with Uchiha Madara in the Land of Grass.

This is even true for the news Konoha releases to the outside world.

But now, the powerful Uchiha ninja appeared in Konoha and appeared in front of him.

Onoki felt that he had been plotted for the first time. The birdmen in Konoha had tricked him into passing information, preparing to lure him into Konoha and then trick him into fooling him.

If it were Sarutobi himself, he might still have some self-confidence. If Uchiha Mu was added to it, he would really feel the fragrance of death.

Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was becoming more and more anxious, Guan Muge took the initiative to ease the situation: "Don't worry, Ohnoki, this is all a misunderstanding.

There are many ways to kill you by accident, there is no need to lure you here specially. "

"Misunderstanding?" Onoki snorted coldly: "We have been speculating all along whether the Uchiha clan may be involved in the hunting organization."

"But now it seems that it is not a matter of participation or non-participation, but that the whole of Konoha is trying to clear the way for the Hunting Organization."

Onoki immediately recalled the process of the emergence of the Kari organization, and then added: "From the time when the members of the Kari organization first started to make noise, to the time when Uchiha Maki returned to the Uchiha clan, the time was basically similar."

"Don't tell me that this is all a coincidence. Now that Uchiha Maki is here, you don't know anything about it?"

"Ohnoki, calm down for a moment."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said: "After I heard that the complete Susanoo appeared, my first reaction was to go to the Uchiha clan to have a look. After all, I was 9.99% sure to identify the two warring parties. One of them must be Uchiha Mu."

"Unexpectedly, when I went to the Uchiha side to test, I found that Uchiha Mu was still in the clan."

"Then what is the Susanoo who is fighting in the Land of Grass now? Is it a genjutsu?" The vigilance in Onoki's eyes did not disappear at all, and he stared at Uchiha Mu without relaxing.

"The person fighting in the Land of Grass is a member of our hunting organization. I put my Susanoo on him and let him control and fight Uchiha Madara." Guan Muge said it lightly, but Onoki was It was so shocking that everyone was confused.

"How is this possible~ How is this possible! If something like Susanoo can be applied directly to an individual across space, then what is the point of our Ninja Village defense system?"

Onoki muttered.

He subconsciously looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, and finally his face turned a little dark.

No wonder the third generation Hokage is so open-minded. His feelings are known to Uchiha Maki and they have no way to restrain them. They might as well die in the end and leave a good reputation while allowing a smooth transition to the position of Hokage.

"What you...want is not just cooperation."

"Yes, or to be more precise, I need the Jinchuuriki of your Ninja Village..."

Guan Muge said lightly.

"This is impossible. The Jinchuuriki matter is related to the plan of the future strongman training system of Iwagakure Village. It is impossible to give it to you directly."

"Do I need to pay more?"

“It’s impossible to add money!”

"I understand, it's not enough."

…

Onoki, who seemed to be very reactive, turned out to be unexpectedly sincere when actually discussing countermeasures.

As expected of a man who had witnessed the two men destroying the Four Kingdoms back then, he became more and more demonic as he got older. After confirming the determined outcome, he did not hesitate at all.

Especially after learning the true history of the ninja world from Guan Muge, he instantly understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's choice.

This old guy is really disgusting.

After knowing the impact of Uchiha Madara's Infinite Tsukuyomi, he decisively chose a method that was more beneficial to Konoha.

Before Shinobi was still a Shinobu, instead of quickly fading into a bear after his peak period, Sarutobi Hiruzen really did a really hard job.

Use your own life to plan the future of Konoha or something...

However, Sarutobi, by that time, Konoha may not be Konoha anymore.

…

In the Kingdom of Whirlpool, in a secret base of the Hunting Organization.

Uzumaki Nanako stretched out boredly: "It's so slow, how long will it take for Sister Xiaoyu to come back!"

Lu Lin, with his arms folded, leaned against a large machine and said boredly: "Okay, little girl, be patient. After all, it's a tailed beast, and it's not that easy to recover."

This time, the first one to recover was Nanao Shigeaki. As the only tailed beast still outside the five major countries, he was now in the Taki Ninja Village.

As the infection level of the Apocalypse virus continues to deepen, the Taki Ninja Village, which has a huge gap in strength compared to the five major Ninja Villages, has long been under the control of the Hunting Organization.

This year the fog in the ninja world is much thicker than before.

This phenomenon has directly affected the harvest of this ninja world this year.

However, due to the conscious neglect of the daimyo of various countries, instead of further expanding their farmland this year to cope with the increasingly severe food crisis, they have directly cut it in half.

For the five major countries that have made some accumulation, this reduction in grain production is already very dangerous, but after all, the foundation is still there, and problems are not that easy to arise.

Countries that had already sensed something was wrong only discovered at this time that their domestic food was now so dependent on the output of the Land of Fire.

It was too late for Ninjamura to realize that it was too late to start the plan to re-activate the homesteading fields.

This year, the villages may not have to cut back on food and clothing for two quarters before they can regain their food supply.

But, after all, we can still save money on food and clothing.

In the food war started by Guan Muge himself, the five major countries are now noisy with each other, watching the anger rising.

However, while other small countries are taking advantage of the chaos, a silent food crisis has swept across all countries.

As the saying goes, "When the boss fights with the second child, the third child gets frustrated."

There are many examples like this.

The marketing war between Wanglaoji and Jiaduobao almost killed He Qizheng.

The war between Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola directly wiped out the domestic soda market.

The paid dian Niang and the free tomato war have brought Fei X Tian Bang’s royalties to the level of its initial stage.

As the IOS system and the Android system competed with each other, the Symbian system was directly defeated, and even Nokia behind it collapsed.

Now a new definition has come. The food war launched by the Fire Nation has plunged the countries into chaos. Before they can distinguish themselves, other small countries have fallen flat.

Those small and neutral countries that do not have Ninja Villages are okay. Others, such as Taki Ninja Village, have chosen to surrender because they can hardly afford to eat.

Don't call it resistance...

After learning that the Country of Whirlpool still had a large amount of food in reserve, a letter was immediately sent to the official of the Country of Whirlpool.

It probably means:

My body (Taki Ninja Village) is as thin as a willow tree. Fortunately, His Highness (the Kingdom of Uzumaki) favors me. Now I have bathed and changed my clothes (opened the country gate), and am eagerly waiting for your return (the bed is warmed, and the posture has been arranged for you) , can't sleep at night (if there is something you like, you can take it as you please).

All in all, it’s very astringent~ Bah, I mean it’s good to lie down!

Although for this kind of Ninja Village, which has basically no ability to resist, Guan Muge can also create a number of reliable tools in a short period of time using the Apocalypse Virus + C World...

But this is not a long-term solution after all.

After all, after World C is completely engulfed by the Apocalypse virus, there will naturally be advantages and disadvantages.

In the past, when controlling others through GEASE·Absolute Command, the main price was paid by the C world and the switch [Akasha's Sword] that controls the C world.

After being controlled by Tian Yuli, anyone infected by the Apocalypse Virus will be affected by World C. While the scope of influence is expanded, it is inevitable to pay the price of mental power.

If you just create illusions through World C and the Apocalypse Virus, although the price you need to pay is also very high, it is still within the acceptable range.

Especially with the [Mirror Flower, Water Moon] developed by Su Mingjing, it only takes a certain amount of mental power to pull the entire Konoha into an illusion that is almost impossible to escape.

But if a person's personality and memory are forcibly distorted through the subconscious sea of ​​World C, it will take a lot of mental power, and it is almost impossible to control the entire Konoha.

Not to mention, as the person being controlled becomes stronger, the mental cost of controlling others becomes even greater, to the point where even Guan Muge would find it difficult.

Taki Ninja Village took the initiative to surrender, which was indeed a very smart choice.

Big countries clash with big countries, and small countries perish.

For details, please refer to "Under the lightning strike, there will be no ripples."

It's just that I didn't expect it. You won't know until you try it. After trying it, Taki Ninmura suddenly found that he seemed to be hugging a real thigh.

Because now the entire ninja world knows that the leader of the Uchiha clan in Konoha is one of those two existences that are like fighting giants in myths.

The headquarters of the Kokari organization was not established in Konoha. Instead, it was led by Fumiko Uesugi and established its headquarters in the Country of Whirlpool.

As for Uchiha Maki, he and Uesugi Fumun-kun of the Kari Organization have said to the outside world that they are husband and wife.
