Under the Bamboo Forest of Naruto

The war is finally over!

Counting from the time when Loess led his army to approach the border of Oni Country, to when the Iwagakure ninjas were completely defeated and returned to Earth Country, this war lasted for nearly two months in total.

But in these two months of war, the two ninja villages of Yueyin and Yanyin paid a total of nearly 6,000 ninja casualties. Among them, Yanyin Village suffered more than 4,000 ninja casualties, and Yueyin Village paid a thousand casualties.

Many ninja casualties.

To be honest, this war has attracted the attention of all forces from the beginning. Faced with this confrontation that may trigger the Fourth Ninja War, all parties cannot ignore it. After all, no one knows where their own village is.

will be involved in the war.

Naturally, all parties have made final assumptions about the direction and outcome of this war.

Originally, according to these people's predictions, this war would have to last at least another month. By then, as the war progressed, the front would gradually advance southward, approaching the core territory of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

The final outcome may be that Tsukigakure Village is completely destroyed by Iwagakure Village, or Tsukigakure Village is forced to cede territory and seek peace under the strong pressure of Iwagakure Village. Another possibility is that Iwagakure Village is under layers of control in the Kingdom of Ghosts.

block, and finally negotiated a conditional peace with Yueyin Village under the influence of external environmental factors (such as the support of Kirigakure Village).

But no matter how they deduce it, in their eyes Yanyin Village will take the initiative in the war. Generally speaking, most people are not optimistic that Yueyin Village can win the final victory of this war.

However, unlike most people who sing bad words about Tsukigakure Village, at least Terumi Mei within Kirigakure Village has great confidence in Tsukigakure Village winning this war. Only Terumi Mei who has fought against Ryūha knows what is inside Ryūyu's body.

What a powerful force it contains.

The development of things is often so beyond everyone's expectations. Overnight, the war situation reversed. Not only did Tsukigakure Village decisively defeat Iwagakure's invasion, but it also defeated the 6,000 Iwagakure ninjas who invaded the Kingdom of Demons.

They were all slaughtered. In the end, only more than a thousand people from Yanyin Village successfully evacuated. The others were either sent to the Kingdom of Ghosts or entered the prisoner-of-war camp of Yueyin Village, and the price paid by Yueyin Village was only more than a thousand people. One to four

The battle loss ratio is probably the biggest loss Yanyin Village has suffered since its establishment.

But this is not the most surprising thing. What is even more surprising is that Iwagakure Village actually threw the four tails into this war. Facing a small country like Tsukigakure Village, Iwagakure Village was not unconcerned.

All the beasts were sent to the battlefield.

But the development that followed was as full of twists and turns as a drama. The leader of the Moon Hidden Village, Kusachi Ryuha, defeated the four-tailed jinchūriki of the Iwagakure Village, and then used an unknown method to completely manipulate the four-tailed jinchūriki and throw them into the target.

The War of the Iwagakure Ninja.

In the battle in the Lava Valley, one man and one beast fought against four thousand Iwagakure ninjas. At the beginning of the battle, the Iwagakure ninjas were pressed to the ground and violently hammered.

One vs four thousand can still achieve an overwhelming victory, but the ninja world has not seen such a fierce person for many years!

In particular, Kusachiruha actually managed to control the Four Tails. People are not only curious, but Kusachiruha doesn’t have Uchiha Madara’s Mangekyō Sharingan, nor does she have the first Hokage’s secret wood escape technique. How does she control the Four Tails?

tail?

Could it be the rare bamboo escape blood successor of the Cao Qian clan?

All of a sudden, people were comparing Kusachiruha to Sanho Hanzo, the man from Amegakure Village who gave Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade the title of Sannin, and was known as the demigod of the ninja world.

Another pinnacle of combat power in the current ninja world.

After Iwagakure Village collapsed and retreated to Earth Country, all forces began to pay attention to the next development of the situation. I want to know whether Onoki will bear this breath and end the war, or start to fully mobilize the human resources within Iwagakure Village to continue the war.

Go down?

Although it was Yueyin Village that won the victory in the previous war, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the initiative in the war is still in the hands of the old man Onoki. Whether it is war or peace? It all depends on Onoki to make the decision.

If Ohnoki decides to continue fighting the war, then all parties will really have to start preparing for the Fourth Ninja War. After all, no one knows whether their village will be involved in the war at the next moment.

Especially the ambiguous relationship between Kirigakure and Tsukigakure, coupled with the death of the second Mizukage, once the war reaches a stalemate, it is difficult to say that Kirigakure will ignore the war.

And once Kirigakure Village joins the war, will the other ninja villages curb their ambitions?

............

Iwagakure Village!

A strong gust of wind blew by, bringing up a large amount of tiny gravel, which clattered against the narrow window.

Inside a huge rock building, a silent meeting was taking place.

"Everyone, tell me what you think!"

Onoki, who was sitting at the top, said as he threw a newly cut volume of sealed documents onto the rock table in front of him, his face looking rather ugly.

This is the armistice document sent by Ryūha, but it is said to be an armistice document, but Noki feels that it is more like a humiliation.

He has never suffered such a big loss since he became the third Tsuchikage. The last time he suffered such a big loss was when he followed the second-generation Tsuchikage to Konoha to form an alliance and was humiliated by Uchiha Madara.

After so many years, even the Third Hokage of Konoha had caved in front of him, but this time he was actually humiliated by a young girl.

It cost more than 4,000 Iwagakure ninja casualties, but in the end gained nothing, and had to accept the other side's truce in despair. This is tantamount to a shame.

But Ohnoki is the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village after all, so he naturally does not do things based on his own subjective emotional attitude. He naturally knows how to be a qualified Tsuchikage.

The elders of Iwagakure Village and the main elite jounin on both sides did not take over and read the truce, but just remained silent without saying a word.

After all, Iwagakure Village has never suffered such a big loss in all these years. Even during the Third Ninja War, the Third Hokage was soft on them.

But this time, more than 4,000 Iwagakure ninjas were lost at once, which was close to one-third of the ninjas that could fight in Iwagakure Village. Faced with such a huge loss, they had to carefully consider their next actions.

Finally, an elder Iwagakure with sinister eyes took the document and looked through it casually, then focused his gaze on Huang Tu, trying to break the silence.

As the son of Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage, and one of the best among this generation of Iwagakure ninjas, Loess is naturally the best candidate for the Fourth Tsuchikage in many people's minds. But precisely because of this, he is also easier to

He was targeted by political opponents who had different opinions from Ohnoki.

"Captain Huangtu, do you have anything to say about this matter?"

As the commander-in-chief of the Iwagakure ninjas, Huangtu can be said to have unshirkable responsibility for the failure of this war. But as someone who has directly fought against Kusachi Ryuha, his opinions are also a reference that cannot be ignored.

Hearing the elder's questioning tone, Huang Tu was not angry. He shook his head gently, and then said:

"I am no match for Kusachi Ryūha. In the previous battles, we tried to remove Kusachi Ryūha's control of the four tails. However, with the cooperation of many Iwagakure Jonin, I have always been at a disadvantage."

Huangtu was very calm and directly admitted the fact that he was not Liuyu's opponent.

As soon as Huang Tu's words came out, the surrounding Iwagakure elders began to discuss in low voices. Although there were political conflicts, Huang Tu's strength was indeed the top among the new generation of Iwagakure ninjas, and even most of the Iwagakure elders here were not.

He was strong, otherwise he would not have appointed Huang Tu as captain to lead the war against Yueyin Village.

But now that Huangtu has so frankly admitted that he is not Ryuyu's opponent, this means that Kusanagi Ryuyu's strength has reached the level of "shadow".

For a moment, some of the Iwagakure elders lowered their heads in deep thought and began to think about whether they should accept the truce treaty, but the other group of Iwagakure elders looked at Ohnoki who was at the top.

The existence of Ōnoki can be said to be a stabilizing needle for Iwagakure Village. If we want to find a ninja among everyone present who can stand up to Kusachi Ryuha, it is naturally Ōnoki. Ōnoki’s indestructible dust escape is even more important.

In the hearts of many people, it is comparable to a tailed beast as a village treasure, and no one would doubt the huge energy hidden under its rickety torso.

"..."

Seeing everyone looking at Onoki expectantly, Huang Tu wanted to say something more, but finally stopped talking. In fact, in his heart, it was a 30-70 split between his father who possessed the Dust Release and Ryuyu.

Ryūha seven, Onoki three.

Although Dust Release can separate the opponent into atomic state and annihilate it, it is not an absolutely invincible technique. Otherwise, the Second Tsuchikage would not have been burned by the Second Mizukage's "Steam Danger Explosion Power", thus covering his whole body.

The bandage will not die together in the final battle with the second generation Mizukage.

As long as the opponent is fast enough, the threat of Dust Release will be greatly reduced, and Ryuha Kusanagi, who is good at time and space teleportation, can undoubtedly restrain Ohnoki to some extent.

.......

"Don't you all have anything to say?"

Looking at the people talking about it below, Onoki knocked on the table lightly with a serious expression. He never expected that such an ordinary action would attract such a powerful enemy to Iwagakure Village.

"........."

The venue fell into silence again, presumably because this issue was difficult to decide.

The current Kusachi Ryūha is troublesome enough, and she is still young, and there is still room for further improvement. She is already so strong, and the senior Iwagakure present cannot imagine how strong Kusachi Ryūha will be in the future.

to such an extent.

Moreover, what Yueyin Village gave this time was not a peace agreement, but a truce. In other words, the two sides only have a temporary truce, and a new round of war may break out at any time.

In fact, in the hearts of many elders, they advocated continuing to fight the war, and they must completely eliminate Tsukiyakure before it becomes bigger. However, the risks of the Fourth Ninja World War that followed made them

I have to be worried.

"Since everyone has no objections, let's reply to Yueyin Village and agree to their conditions!"

Seeing that the people below were still silent, Onoki finally made a decision.

Even if you feel unwilling to do so, this war should indeed end.

The current relationship between Iwagakure and Kirigakure and Kumogakure is not very good. Once Iwagakure is entangled with Tsukigakure, it is difficult to say whether there will be any changes in these two villages.

As for Konoha and Sunagakure, who formed the Wind and Fire Alliance, they had just fought each other in a battle not long ago. Naturally, the two villages, each licking their own blood, were unwilling to join the war at this juncture. Even if Konoha's Danzo was very interested in wiping out the Kusasen clan,

Enthusiastic, but this does not represent the opinions of other elders in Konoha.

After much deliberation, Ohnoki finally decided to agree to Kusachi Ryūha's conditions.
