Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide!

Just when Onoki completely lost confidence in his son, he turned around and thought about how to train the next generation of heirs beyond his son.

The third generation Raikage who was far away in Yunyin Village was also worried about his son.

When his anger was not carried away, the Third Raikage was still very wise. It was obvious that he, like Ohnoki, saw the fragility of this alliance.

"Dad, I heard there's going to be a war? Great, when will the war start?"

The Third Raikage looked at his son who broke in through the door with an expression like "I don't know who I am, and I don't know why I'm here, but I know I'm going to go on a killing spree." He couldn't help but pass him by. A shoulder throw threw him to the ground.

"Fight, fight, fight every day. Look at the Ghost Lantern Crescent Moon in the village next door. They are the same age as you! What do they do every day? Look at you again!"

"Want to fight? Well, go find Ghost Lantern Xinyue and fight!"

After venting his anger, the Third Raikage revealed the purpose of letting his son come here: "You will also participate in this battle."

Seeing the happy smile on his son's face, the Third Raikage quickly added:

"Remember, follow Tutai's command in everything, and don't rush in rashly! Otherwise, you will have to wait to live in Yunlei Gorge until the end of the war!"

The future Fourth Raikage naturally agreed to this. For him, as long as he is allowed to fight, he can do anything.

"What a pity! It seems that Gui Deng Xinyue will not participate in this battle, otherwise I will have to compete with him no matter what! Let dad see who is stronger!"

Ever since Ghost Light Crescent became the Six-Tailed Jinchuuriki and defeated Ren, he had completely become someone else's child. He was often used by the Third Raikage to educate his own son, which naturally gave him a rebellious mentality.

This crazy application to compete this time was just to prove myself.

"Lord Raikage, isn't it inappropriate for you to use the Ghost Lantern Crescent Moon to spur the young clan leader?"

After watching the people go away, Dodai asked the Third Raikage.

"I don't want to either, Tutai..."

The Third Raikage stood up and looked down at the entire Cloud Hidden Village through the window. This village built between the cloud and mist peaks had an unobstructed view from this angle.

"Now the entire ninja world believes that Konoha is the most powerful, and I, the Hidden Cloud Village, are second in strength. But let's think about it behind closed doors, how big is the gap between us and Konoha?"

There was a rare hint of exhaustion in the Third Raikage's voice.

Sometimes, the most desperate person is not the third or fourth child, but the second child who is closest to the boss.

Since the Golden Horn and Silver Horn rebellion and the death of the second generation Raikage in battle, the third generation Raikage has paid special attention to the overall development of the village.

You can call him reckless, but you can never call him stupid.

It was also from him that for decades, no senior ninja in Kumogakure Village became a rebel ninja.

Under his leadership, Cloud Hidden Village's strength quickly recovered, and it firmly established its second place in the ninja world. But because of this, he also knew more about the horror of Konoha.

After all, the overall strength of the village, in addition to the older generation's pillars, depends more on the other party's young people and the other party's future potential.

Even if Konoha is crippled by the opportunity of this war, as long as it is not completely wiped out, Konoha may be able to climb back to the top of the ninja world in more than ten years.

So what should we do at that time?

Can there be another ninja war?

You must know that war is a thing, everything is possible before the outcome is determined.

There is a possibility that Konoha will lose again, and there is also a possibility that his Kumogakure Village will fail.

As a Raikage, his vision cannot stop at the present, but must look to the future.

Currently, there are only a few rising stars in the entire Yunyin Village who can make a difference.

What about Konoha?

Apart from that, the Uchiha and Hyuga families have not been completely wiped out. Why do you say that Konoha is in decline and there are no more talents?

Even the Kirigakure Village, which had been greatly weakened, had a young man with such talent and extraordinary skills as Kiden Xinyue, coupled with the previous Uzumaki clan who "one clan builds one country", how could this not make him feel How about a lot of pressure?

Therefore, when it was clear that it was impossible to eliminate Konoha at once, he had to consider the future and squeeze out all the value of this war as much as possible.

"So we must use this war to defeat Konoha while giving more experience to the young people. After all, war is the best way to temper people..."

"As a group of us, no matter how hard we work, our lives will be like this. If we can leave a rich platform for those who come after us, I will be satisfied."

"But the next generation must be well cultivated and strive to surpass Konoha in an upright and fair manner on the stage of the next generation!"

Looking at the white clouds in the sky outside the window, the Third Raikage couldn't help but imagine the scene in the future when Kumogakure Village truly reached the top of the ninja world.

——

After the three countries officially signed the treaty of non-aggression and joint attack, the situation in the Country of Rain did stabilize instantly.

Although the balance that this alliance can maintain is also very fragile, at least for now, it has actually formed a tendency to outflank Konoha.

Even in order to be more secure, the Three Kingdoms Alliance also focused its attention on the head of the Amegakure Village, hoping to draw Sansho Hanzo into the water to deal with Konoha together.

In their view, the strength of the Three Kingdoms Alliance lies here. As long as Sanshouyu Hanzo does not want Yuyin Village to be destroyed, then there is no other way but to submit obediently.

But I didn't expect that what they did in the Kingdom of Rain had completely angered Sanshouyu Hanzo, so when the envoys from the Three Kingdoms came to Yuyin Village with arrogance, what awaited them was not full of promises, but a handful full of Blood sickle.

——

At first Sansho Hanzo wanted to endure the fact that his own territory was chosen as the scheduled battlefield and that ninjas from various countries were wreaking havoc on his own land.

After all, they are not as powerful as others, and even if they resist, they are just humiliating themselves. The other party won't be able to hold on for long anyway, so they can just let him feel good if they want.

So he simply wanted to lie down completely, Sanshouyu Hanzo ordered all the rain ninjas in the Rain Country to withdraw to the Rain Ninja Village, and directly handed over most of the Rain Country - most of the Rain Country was worthless anyway. If there is no fight, there will be no fight.

However, he did not expect that his retreat would lead to an intensification of the strength of the other four major countries. Whether it was under the instigation of the Ghost Lantern Crescent Moon or the desire to completely destroy the war potential of the Rain Country, ninjas from various countries actually began to attack small villages everywhere. .

For a time, the large and small villages all over the Kingdom of Rain were almost devastated. The population of the Kingdom of Rain exodus in large numbers made the already poor Rain Kingdom even worse.

What makes Sanshouyu Hanzo even more annoyed is that at this time, there are still people hoarding goods and the price of food is increasing day by day. When I inquired, they turned out to be businessmen with backgrounds from the five major countries!

So in this case, when the envoys from Yunyin, Iwa, and Sand Villages came to Amegakure Village and asked Sansho Hanzo to cooperate with the Kumoyin Village ninjas to send troops to attack Konoha, Sansho Hanzo was completely angry.

"That is to say, if I don't attack Konoha according to your request, then you will have to unite to destroy my Amegakure Village first, right?"

Sanshouyu Hanzo was wearing a mask, kneeling on the tatami, his head drooped so that his specific expression could not be seen clearly.

In the dim front hall, apart from the patter of rain outside the window, the only sound was the voice of the envoys of the Three Kingdoms.

"That's right, and you, the ninjas of Hidden Rain Village, must fight under our command and cannot act without authorization. I hope Master Hanzo will put the overall situation first and don't make mistakes!"

The dark-skinned envoy of Yunyin Village just sat on the ground carelessly and answered casually.

In his opinion, Sansho Hanzo is terrifying as a ninja.

But as the leader of the Ninja Village, Sansho Hanzo is pitiful.

If Sanshouyu Hanzo was alone, he wouldn't dare to do this even if he had ten courages. But since he cares about Yuyin Village, everything will be easier to handle.

In response to the words of the envoy from Yunyin Village, Sanshouyu Hanzo did not answer. He just raised his head silently and looked at the ceiling.

"Haha, in fact, if Mr. Sanjiaoyu agrees to participate in the battle, then everything is actually easy to negotiate."

Perhaps seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, the envoy from Sand Hidden Village took the initiative to take a step back.

In fact, this is their main goal.

In the entire Yuyin Village, Sanshouyu Hanzo was the only one worthy of their respect. As long as Sanshouyu Hanzo agrees to participate in the war, it doesn't really matter whether those ninjas from Hidden Rain Village want to join the war.

"I'm joining the war?"

Finally, the dull atmosphere was broken.

Sanshouyu Hanzo stood up, his tall figure blocking the light source behind him, and also causing the shadow to cover the three messengers present.

"Yes, it's you..."

The envoy from Sunagakure Village wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Sanshouyu Hanzo's words in the blink of an eye.

"I really should join the war. Not only me, but the entire Yuyin Village will join the war."

The envoy from Sand Hidden Village thought that Sanshouyu Hanzo had agreed to his and others' request, but before he had time to rejoice, he was stumped by his next question.

"On your way to Rain Ninja Village, did you ever go to any market in the Country of Rain?"

Sanshouyu Hanzo came to the envoy of Sunagakure Village step by step with bare feet and looked at him condescendingly.

"...Market? Does Hanzo-sama need to buy something?"

The ninjas of Sunagakure Village seemed to realize that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and tried to make a joke to lighten the atmosphere, but immediately the roar of Hanzo Sanshoyu sounded in the room:

"Five hundred thousand taels!"

"A rice ball costs five hundred thousand taels!"

"That money can't even fit in a carriage!"

"That's why you're telling me not to make a mistake?"

Looking at the stunned envoy with an incredulous expression in front of him, Sanshouyu Hanzo slightly raised the corners of his mouth hidden under the mask, and immediately raised the scythe behind him.

"Very good, then I'll make a mistake and show it to you!"

boom!

Outside the window, thunder broke out and the rain became more intense. Drops of blood flowed out from the cracks in the door of the house, and were washed away by the rain in an instant.
