Konoha's entry is ninja!

At the end of August of the 45th year of Konoha, the Fourth Kazekage of the Sand Ninja personally led his troops northward and once again invaded the Kingdom of Birds.

Almost when the Sand Ninja invaded the Kingdom of Birds again, the Kingdom of Grass and Minato Namikaze arrived from the Kingdom of Fire.

At this time, the Iwa Ninja had already withdrawn from the Country of Grass, and set up defenses at one end of the destroyed Kannabi Bridge. In turn, they used the natural barrier of the huge canyon where the Kannabi Bridge was located to defend themselves, and separated Konoha, Sand Ninja, and Grass Ninja. The coalition blocked it.

It has to be said that the elite Iwa Ninja East Dead Man should not be underestimated. When defending, Orochimaru and Chiyo are helpless.

In the big tent, Konoha is led by Orochimaru, Sand Hidden Village is led by Chiyo and Ebizo, and Kusanagi can only do nothing. At this moment, the three parties are holding a meeting.

Minato Namikaze, who had just arrived, was also present.

"Since the defense formed by the Iwa Ninja with the help of natural barriers is difficult to break, it is better to change the direction and attack from the Kingdom of Rain."

Chiyodao.

Orochimaru nodded slightly: "The direction of the Kingdom of Rain is indeed a choice, and the current battlefield has also spread to the Kingdom of Rain."

"But the Iwa Ninja forces must be contained here, otherwise the battle situation will not change."

Wuwei, a grass ninja, said quickly after hearing this: "The strength of the Iwa ninja has not been greatly reduced. With the strength of our village, I am afraid there is no way to contain them."

It would be an absolute disaster for them to face the Iwa Ninja alone.

The Iwa ninja absolutely hated them for being involved in this war.

And Orochimaru and Chiyo are naturally aware of this.

Orochimaru said: "The main force of Konoha is to contain the Iwa Ninja from the Country of Grass, and then divide the force into a side attack from the Country of Rain."

"As for Sunagakure, I think we can go directly through the Rain Country and enter the Earth Country, and besiege the Iwa Ninja in the direction of the Bird Country to put pressure on the Iwa Ninja."

Chiyo nodded, this is what she meant.

What she was most afraid of was Konoha's intervention in the Kingdom of Birds. Now after listening to Orochimaru's words, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Then it's decided, the Iwa Ninja here will be handed over to Konoha and Kusanagi!"

"Now that the Raikage is putting huge pressure on the Iwa Ninja, we may be able to take the opportunity to make the Tsuchikage admit defeat."

Orochimaru laughed after hearing this and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult with the character of the Third Tsuchikage."

"Unless the Third Raikage forces him to mobilize most of his troops."

Ebizo said: "That guy Onoki has a bad temper and a tough temper. I'm afraid he will delay the peace talks."

Chiyo hummed: "Then he has to admit defeat!"

Orochimaru agreed very much: "Sunagakure had better take down the Bird Country before the Iwa Ninja can deal with the Kumo Ninja's invasion."

Chiyo nodded solemnly: "We will!"

The three families reached an agreement, and after the meeting ended and Chiyo and others were sent away, Orochimaru and Namikaze Minato returned to the tent.

Namikaze Minato asked directly: "What to do next?"

Orochimaru said: "Break the Iwa Ninja's defense!"

"Forcing the Iwa ninja to negotiate, even if it just delays time."

"Iwa Ninja needs to delay, and we also need to mobilize some troops to the Kumo Ninja battlefield."

"Although Shuichi-kun is there, he should only be able to contain the AB group. If we want to completely drive the Kumo ninja out of the Land of Fire, or even expel them from small countries such as the Land of Fields, that amount of troops is not enough."

Namikaze Minato nodded, understanding Orochimaru's strategic intention, and said: "Then let's launch an attack tomorrow!"

"When the time comes, just arrange for someone to throw the kunai out, and leave the rest to me!"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Then it will be up to you, Minato, to perform."

Namikaze Minato smiled, and then said: "I would also like to thank you, senior, for taking care of Shuichi before."

"I didn't look after him."

Orochimaru told the truth: "Shuichi-kun's strength may have surpassed that of your teacher."

"However, he has two tailed beasts now, Minato, I'm afraid you have to be prepared."

This sentence has profound meaning.

Namikaze Minato was naturally able to understand and nodded solemnly: "I will pay attention."

"With me, Jiraiya-sensei, Tsunade-senpai, and you, senior, there should be no problem."

Orochimaru smiled playfully and said, "Minato, I may not necessarily be on Shuichi-kun's side."

"Don't forget, I'm still at the root."

Namikaze Minato said: "But you are a disciple of the Sandaime and one of the Sannin."

"You and Shuichi are very compatible companions."

After speaking, Namikaze Minato bowed slightly: "I'm going to prepare first."

Looking at Namikaze Minato's back, Orochimaru couldn't help but chuckle: "Unknowingly, Shuichi-kun has already weaved a big net in Konoha!"

"In this case, it seems that he is the fifth generation."

Then he turned his head and looked in the direction of Konoha Village. His eyes seemed to penetrate the tent and landed on the Hokage Building across a long distance: "Has the old man made a decision?"

…

The night passed by suddenly.

The next day, at the location of the Kannabi Bridge, across the collapsed bridge, the Konoha and Kusanagi combined forces faced off against the Iwa Ninja.

At this time, the strong men gathered in Konoha were not only Orochimaru and Namikaze Minato, but also jonins like Uchiha Fugaku and Hinata Hinashi who came from the Mist Ninja battlefield with Namikaze Minato.

The purpose is to completely defeat the current Iwa Ninja, so as to force the Iwa Ninja to pinch their noses and negotiate, and then be able to free up more power to deal with Kumo Ninja.

"Earth Escape!"

Orochimaru shouted and ordered.

Immediately, the Konoha ninjas and Grass ninjas who were able to perform earth escape were dispatched one after another, jumped into the canyon, and then formed seals together.

Earth Escape-Multiple Earth Current Walls!

Boom!

Walls of earth rose from the ground and continued to rise.

At the same time, the Iwa ninjas on the other side of the canyon threw various ninja tools at the Konoha ninjas and Grass ninjas who were performing ninjutsu below, and attacked from above.

The Konoha ninjas and Grass ninjas on this side also took action, either standing on the bank of the canyon, or directly jumping into the canyon to intercept and resist the Iwa ninja's attacks.

The existence of the earth flow wall is to serve as a springboard.

After a while, the tactic paid off.

Namikaze Minato immediately shouted: "Everyone, just throw as many kunai and flash bombs as possible to the Iwa ninja, and leave the rest to me!"

Orochimaru then said: "Do as Minato says."

"Move out!"

Whoosh!

One by one, the Konoha ninjas performed the teleportation technique and used the earth flow wall to approach the other side.

Moreover, headed by Uchiha Fugaku, Hinata Hizashi and other Konoha Jonin, Orochimaru himself also went out personally to provide cover for others.

When they got close enough, flying Thunder God Kunai and flash bombs were thrown into the Iwa Ninja.

As the flash bomb exploded, a dazzling golden light flashed, and Namikaze Minato's figure on the other side disappeared immediately.

"ah!"

"spread!"

"It's Konoha's yellow flash!"

…

At this moment, Namikaze Minato kept flashing in the Iwa Ninja's body, and every time it appeared, an Iwa Ninja would scream and fall down.

At this moment, the Konoha ninjas finally knew how Minato Namikaze got his title of yellow flash!

But in just a moment, Namikaze Minato broke through the Iwa Ninja's defense line alone, and a large number of Konoha Ninja and Kusanagi Ninja rushed to the other side.

The Iwa Ninja front, which was already under-strength, quickly collapsed.

As the commander, Dongseiren had to order the retreat even if he was unwilling to do so.

On the contrary, Orochimaru did not give the order to pursue him, but occupied the defense line that the Iwa Ninja had built before and turned it into his own defensive position.

The Grass Ninja Village also quickly brought in the people and materials that had been prepared long ago and began to rebuild the Kannabi Bridge.

Next, Orochimaru will guard this location with a small number of troops and Kusanagi to prevent the Iwanin from counterattacking and at the same time, it will be used as a logistical route. It is also the escape route for the Konoha ninjas who enter the Earth Kingdom to fight the Iwanin.

This will shorten the battle line and save troops. Coupled with the cooperation from the Rain Country, at least one or two thousand troops can be saved to support the Kumo Ninja battlefield.

And just as Konoha and Kusanagi continued to expand their results, the Sand Ninja on the other side were also making great progress.

In terms of average quality, the Sand Ninja was already better than the Iwa Ninja, and coupled with the military advantage at this time, the Iwa Ninja was losing ground.

Of course, there is also the fact that the Iwa Ninja does not have a strong will to resist.

When Onoki issued the order, he had no confidence in preserving the country of birds.

Time flies to September.

The Sand Ninja completely expelled the Iwa Ninja from the Kingdom of Birds, entered the Kingdom of Earth, and even connected the battlefield with Konoha again.

But under such a good situation, both Konoha and Suna Ninja stopped involuntarily, and then threatened peace talks.

Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage Office.

Looking at the two peace talks brought back by his son Huang Tu, Ohnoki's face turned pale.

This is not a peace talk, it is clearly a threat!

"These bastards... are disgusting!"

Onoki gritted his teeth.

The Konoha Sand Ninja were taking advantage of the situation.

Huang Tu was also full of helplessness and said: "Father, in this situation, I am afraid that we can only temporarily agree to peace talks."

"We must mobilize our troops to deal with the Kumo ninja first, otherwise the trouble will be even greater."

The Third Raikage personally led the army to invade the Earth Kingdom, which had a very bad impact, and had already shaken the support of the Earth Kingdom daimyo to Iwagakure Village.

Onoki snorted coldly: "Then go to peace talks on my behalf!"

"Let Konoha retreat to the Country of Fire, and let Sand Ninja withdraw from the Country of Birds!"

Huang Tian was stunned, but then he understood.

As for peace talks, let's fight to gain time first.

"I see!"

Huang Tu nodded, then turned and left.

Onoki looked at the map. The red lines on it represented the traces of the Third Raikage's actions.

He was wandering around in all directions, almost treating the Kingdom of Earth as his back garden.

And this also caused extremely bad effects and destruction to the Kingdom of Earth.

This is also the reason why the Daimyo of Earth Country is dissatisfied.

"Since you don't want to leave, then stay!"

Onoki's eyes were fierce.

He was going to set up a dragnet so that Yun Ninja wouldn't be able to escape!

…

While the Iwa ninja battlefield continued to win, on the Kumo ninja battlefield, Hoshita Shuichi led Uchiha Shisui and Asuka to constantly compete with the AB combination.

However, after suffering a loss for the first time, AB group also had one more person beside them.

Molten Escape Earth Generation!

Three on three!

Toshiro's sophistication, Melting Release characteristics, and fast speed of casting spells all made Shuichi Hoshita and Uchiha Shisui look at him sideways and feel a little headache at the same time.

The original advantage of having one more person was immediately evened out.

However, with the AB combination contained, Konoha's front was completely stabilized.

Especially as reinforcements continue to arrive, Konoha's power is getting stronger and stronger.

Shuichi Hoshita still fights with the AB combination every day, not only to contain them, but also to hone his flying thunder god technique.

Fighting against such a master allowed his proficiency in the Flying Thunder God technique to improve rapidly, much faster than that of a sadistic person.

Time just flew by and it was mid-September.

Konoha organized the first counterattack and once again asked the Kumo ninja to retreat.

at the same time.

As the negotiations between Konoha, Sand Ninja and Iwa Ninja entered a new stage, Namikaze Minato took Kakashi, Uchiha Obito, and Nohara Rin back to Konoha for a short period of repair.

Not only them, but also many Konoha ninjas who initially fought against the Suna Ninja and the Mist Ninja. More than a thousand people returned to Konoha and began to repair and prepare to support the Kumo Ninja on the battlefield.

…

In the conference room of the Hokage Building.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Mito Monobu, and Koharu Koharu are all there.

Danzo's face looked very ugly, and he said forcefully: "Even if we want to negotiate peace with the Iwa Ninja, we must not give away the benefits we have already obtained. In this case, the ninjas who died in the village before will be meaningless."

"We have the upper hand now, there is no need to give in to the Iwa Ninja."

"Four-Tails, I will never agree to return it to the Iwa Ninja!"

After turning to bed, Koharu said, "Hiruzhan, would you like to think about it?"

"In order to gain the support of the Sand Ninja, we agreed to return the One-Tailed One, but this time we really don't need to compromise with the Iwa Ninja."

Danzo didn't wait for Sarutobi Hiruzen to speak before he said: "From my point of view, even one tail should not be returned to the Suna Ninja."

"Although Shuichi Hoshita said that he is sure to extract the tailed beast in three years without dying, but what if it happens?"

"Hiruzen, does such an outstanding talent have to be damaged like this?"

At this moment, he had completely forgotten that he had called Shuichi Hoshita "a naturally evil brat" in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"And if Hoshita Shuichi does it, then he can't return the tailed beast."

Danzo looked at the silent Sarutobi Hiruzen and spat: "With one tail and four tails in hand, we can definitely use these two tailed beasts to conduct experiments and create a perfect Jinchuuriki."

"Then the village will have two more powerful combat forces. Even if it encounters this situation again, it will not be so critical."

The second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, initially disagreed with the distribution of the tailed beasts. As a fan of Senju Tobirama, Danzo also agreed with this choice.

In Danzo's view, such a powerful combat power is safest only if he holds it in his own hands.

If all the nine tailed beasts were in Konoha, what would happen even if they were besieged by the four great ninja villages?

Listening to Danzo's words, both Mito Kaden and Koharu were very excited.

Not to mention the perfect Jinchuuriki, even the one like Lao Zi is extremely powerful.

Although Konoha has the strongest Kyuubi, the Kyuubi is too powerful and difficult to control, and there is no way to exert its power.

One tail and four tails are more suitable.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt the heartbeat of his two old friends, and sighed secretly. He did not say that returning the first tail was Hoshita Shuichi's suggestion before, but silently took the blame, but he was also very determined: "Occupied the first tail." Too many tailed beasts will only cause the village to be besieged by others. Even if we control the first and fourth tails, it is impossible to resist the siege of the other four great ninja villages."

"Even the Taki-nin village will feel in danger of joining them then."

"And even if we can block their siege, how many village ninjas will have to be sacrificed."

"How many children are going to be sent to war?"

"There is no point in such a war."

Danzo glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen. He knew that now that he had made a decision, his old friend would not change it, but he still said: "Hoshita Shuichi is also a person valued by the Daimyo. If he sacrifices because of this... …”

Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly: "I, the Hokage, will bear all the consequences."

"And once I defeat the Kumo ninja, I will take the blame and resign as Hokage!"

Danzo felt happy, but his expression did not change at all.

However, Mito Kadoyan and Koharu who were sleeping in the dormitory were shocked when they heard this.

After turning to bed, Koharu quickly said: "Hiruzhan, you don't have to go to this level!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed: "We are getting older, it's time to give way to young people."

Koharu and Mito Kadoyan fell silent after hearing this.

Yes, they are indeed old.

This time the war has become clear, and it is indeed time to retreat.

"Since you have decided, Hiruzen, then so be it."

Mito Kadoyan said: "However, I am afraid that we need to carefully consider the choice of Hokage."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded: "Don't worry, I have already considered this."
