Iwagakure.
Inside the Tsuchikage Building.
The Third Tsuchikage was lying on a reclining chair, swaying leisurely. In front of him was a book floating in the air, turning page by page under his Chakra control.
The war in the past year has been very bad. Although the major villages are still focused on dealing with Konoha, Konoha's Yellow Flash was everywhere, and with the Flying Thunder God, it's almost equivalent to one person on multiple battlefields, which made the war a bit difficult.
Therefore, he doesn't intend to concentrate on the war anymore.
For the time being, there will be peace.
Konoha now has too many high-level combatants. During the war, they will listen to Sarutobi's unified command, but when the war ends and they enter a peaceful period, the balance between these combatants will inevitably be difficult.
As far as he knows, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Minato, Tsunade, Danzo … These people can compete for the position of the Fourth Hokage. Even if Jiraiya doesn't compete with his apprentice, Orochimaru will, and when the time comes, there will naturally be internal conflicts.
Now, Konoha is very difficult to attack from the outside.
They can only wait for Konoha to collapse from the inside.
"I don't know who will win the fight for the position of the Fourth Hokage … If the Silver Flash is still alive, Orochimaru is more likely to become the Fourth Hokage, no, Danzo is also likely."
Onoki snorted.
If the Silver Flash is still alive, maybe the infighting in Konoha will be more intense, but in fact, the death of the Silver Flash is also a good thing, it's better if he dies together with the Golden Flash.
Konoha's Sannin, Sarutobi, and Danzo are not difficult to deal with, but the Golden Flash and the Silver Flash are really monsters of war.
And.
These two ninjas are assassin-type, extremely fast ninjas, as long as they are still alive, they will make people restless, and they will always worry about the other side suddenly launching an attack.
"But the Silver Flash did a good thing before he died, he killed Hanzo, and the benefits from the Rain Country should be enough to make up for the losses of the war …"
Onoki thought leisurely.
After the collapse of the Rain Village, he quickly sent several teams of elites into the Rain Country to control the Rain Country and extract benefits from it.
Originally, because of the existence of Hanzo the Salamander, it was difficult to make a move on the Rain Country. But now, they can do it unscrupulously. Even if Konoha also attacks the Rain Country, the benefits will be enough to divide.
Just as Onoki was thinking …
A ninja suddenly appeared.
The ninja's forehead was full of cold sweat, and as soon as he landed, he hurriedly said: "Tsuchikage-sama! Urgent battle report … the elite troops led by Lord Scorched Earth have been completely annihilated in the Country of Rain! "
Slap!!
The book floating above Onoki's head smashed directly into his face.
Onoki threw the book away and sat up abruptly. He looked at the ninja who reported in astonishment and said, "What did you say? How could they be completely wiped out in the Country of Rain? "
The ninja's forehead was full of cold sweat. "It's the Akatsuki … Scorched earth sama set up an ambush and killed the leader of Akatsuki. But that leader was just a puppet on the surface. There was a terrifying existence in the dark whose strength was not less than Hanzo. He completely destroyed Scorched earth sama's troops!"
"Bastard!!"
Onoki picked up the teacup on the table and slammed it on the ground, smashing it into pieces, showing an almost uncontrollable anger.
After the collapse of the Rain Village, the Country of Rain was in chaos for nearly two years, but an organization called the Akatsuki continued to absorb the surviving Ninjas of the Rain Village and quickly grew stronger. Onoki was also aware of this.
But in his view, the Akatsuki was just a remnant of the Rain Ninjas. As long as he found their base, he could easily destroy them. There was nothing to worry about.
But now something happened!
Scorched earth was the Tsuchikage who had been with him for many years, and now he died in the hands of the Akatsuki!
"How could a remnant of the Rain Ninjas have such a powerful Ninja …"
Onoki clenched his fists and gritted his teeth for a while.
Thinking about the events of the past few years, it was simply an unlucky year, extremely unlucky!
First, the previously unknown Silver Flash suddenly rose and destroyed the advance operations of the elite forces they sent. Then, Silver Flash's power shook the Shinobi World, killing powerful ninjas one after another, causing serious damage to the major Shinobi villages.
And finally, Silver Flash disappeared, and Namikaze Minato, who had been covered by Silver Flash, took over the situation of the war, causing the Iwagakure to suffer heavy losses again.
Now.
Even the remnant forces of the Rain Village have such a powerful Ninja!
He knew Scorched earth's character very well. He was calm and cautious. If he could destroy Scorched earth and the elite troops he led, the strength of the other party must be very terrifying, not weaker than him!
Just as Onoki gritted his teeth and wanted to personally lead the team to destroy the Akatsuki, another Ninja rushed in.
"Tsuchikage-sama! Something happened to the Sand Village!! "
"Oh?"
As soon as he heard that something happened to the Sand Village, the anger in Onoki's heart eased a little, and his expression calmed down slightly.
It seems that it wasn't just the Iwagakure that suffered losses. This was a little more acceptable. He reached out and picked up another teacup on the table, ready to calm down.
"Most of the Sand Village was destroyed, and Yondaime Kazekage was seriously injured …"
The Ninja reported with a trembling voice, "According to our investigation, only one person attacked the Sand Village. That person is … is … is Silver Flash, who disappeared two years ago!"
The entire Tsuchikage's office was silent.
Kacha!!
The teacup in Onoki's hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
…
Kumogakure.
Somewhere on a high platform surrounded by clouds and mist.
Yondaime Lei Ying, who was surrounded by lightning, was constantly punching, and his whole body was constantly flashing on the platform, practicing his speed and Taijutsu.
Wouch!
Tsuchikage's figure appeared on the tower.
He looked at Yondaime Lei Ying with a depressed face, and said, "Lei Ying -sama, the missing Silver Flash has appeared again."
"Hmph … That guy is still alive."
Yondaime Lei Ying stopped and waved his bronze-colored muscular arm, and said, "I knew that guy wouldn't die inexplicably. It's good that he's still alive. I can let him experience the results of my hard work for more than a year!"
After more than a year of hard work, his strength has improved compared to before, and he can suppress the Hachibi with his own strength. His speed has become faster, and his defense has become stronger.
And if he meets the previous Maples again.
He's confident that he can beat him!
Hearing Yondaime Lei Ying's words, Tsuchikage hesitated, but he still said with an ugly face, "About seven days ago, Silver Flash invaded the Sand Village alone, and severely injured Yondaime Kazekage, and almost destroyed the village. While you were improving your strength, that guy disappeared for two years, and I'm afraid he's also improving his strength."
"…"
Yondaime Lei Ying's expression froze.
The platform fell into silence, and only the sound of lightning arcs intertwining could be heard.
