One day later, at the Wood Leaf Camp.
When Zhi Wei entered the tent, he immediately noticed several gazes directed at him.
"The armies of the Rock and Sand have gradually withdrawn from the Rain Country and are approaching their respective borders."
Zhi Wei looked at Jiraiya and Watergate in the deepest part of the tent.
At present, Wood Leaf is the only one who can detect the movements of the three armies in a very short time.
His insect control technique makes it impossible for the enemy to guard against.
"Got it, thank you for your hard work."
Jiraiya smiled slightly and immediately looked at Watergate beside him. This situation is not unexpected.
"Damn, if it wasn't for the sudden intervention of the Akatsuki, we would have won this time!"
Hyuga Tianji said with some anger, and Uchiha Yan, who was standing quietly on his left, frowned slightly.
He looked at Shui Men. The latter's expression was calm, which caused his expression to freeze slightly.
Regarding Nagato, Watergate and Jiraiya didn't explain much to him.
However, although they didn't completely crush the allied forces of the three countries, the battle at the border of the Country of Rain that had been in a stalemate for several months finally came to an end. This made everyone slowly heave a sigh of relief.
It has been more than half a year since the beginning of the Third Shinobi World War.
Wood Leaf has resisted the attacks from the four great villages again and again, until now, the scales of victory in this war have gradually tilted towards Wood Leaf.
For the rest of the four great villages, they are almost all elites.
"Send the information back to the village," Jiraiya slowly exhaled a white breath, then looked at Watergate beside him.
Watergate nodded, this time, he must do the information transmission himself, because some of the implications are only known to him and Jiraiya -sensei.
...
And this information was passed to the hands of Sandaime Naruto about half a day later.
This information was specially marked by Watergate, Sandaime didn't inform Wood Leaf's advisors first.
When he thoroughly read the information, Sandaime picked up the pipe in his hand, took a deep breath, and then blew out smoke rings. The light smoke filled the air, reflecting Sandaime's slightly deep eyes.
"Akatsuki, Rinnegan?" Sandaime whispered, after Jiraiya returned from the Rain Country, of course, he reported the situation during the period.
Over the years, Sandaime has been trying to collect some information about the Rinnegan, but Hanzo's methods are not weak, so he didn't find any valuable information.
What he didn't expect was that the orphans raised by Jiraiya, after a few years, established such an organization in the Rain Country.
Their action this time has caused a great hindrance to Wood Leaf's counterattack. According to common sense, this Akatsuki should be on the red list of the village.
But in the information, when Watergate talked about his concerns, Sandaime had to reconsider his final decision.
The Rain Country has a demigod Hanzo, which is enough to make the Fire Country afraid, and now there is one more person who has the legendary eyes of The Immortal Of The Six Paths.
If they completely pull the Rain Country to the opposite side, according to the current war situation, it's not a wise move.
Immediately, Sandaime first pressed the latest information in his hand, and let the Anbu inform the rest of Wood Leaf's higher-ups.
...
Inside the war conference room.
Sandaime informed the higher-ups of Wood Leaf about the war that happened on the border of the Rain Country, except for Nagato's Rinnegan.
Obviously, the sudden appearance of the Akatsuki caused a change in the war situation, which made them a little surprised.
Mitokado and Koharu's expression became dignified almost at the same time, and then said, "No matter what the origin of this Akatsuki is, after the war is over, we should immediately investigate their details thoroughly."
Although Wood Leaf has the advantage in the war, it's not to the point where they can sit back and relax.
The Third Shinobi World War isn't over yet.
Sandaime nodded, and then said, "So I will immediately order Jiraiya and the others to return to the Land of Grass. The Rock has established a complete supply line there, and the threat is great."
"In addition, we will send some forces to the Land of Grass, and set the defense line in the area of Kikyo Mountain."
"As for the defense line of the Land of Fire, we still can't give up, but I want to withdraw the Uchiha Clan, and let Hyuga Tianki and Kato Duan take charge there."
"Although the border of the Land of Rain still needs to be guarded, we don't need too much strength."
Sandaime said. He has a full understanding of Hanzo's character. The reason why he is anxious to separate himself from the Rock and the Sand, in addition to being afraid of Wood Leaf's strength, is the most important point.
That is, the emergence of the Akatsuki has gradually threatened his ruling position in the Land of Rain.
This is the most intolerable thing for Hanzo, so Sandaime has already guessed that Hanzo's next step will be a major purge of the organizations in the Land of Rain, and the first to bear the brunt of it will undoubtedly be the Akatsuki.
"We have no objection to this arrangement, but … this last battle is still not easy for us to fight."
Mitokado said. As a consultant, he naturally has a strategic vision, and the purpose of Sandaime's defense is obvious, to prevent the simultaneous attack of the three countries.
Moreover, the attack this time was probably not the same as the previous one.
Perhaps, the scene of the First Shinobi World War will be repeated.
Sandaime nodded, and a smile appeared on his dignified face as he said: "About this, I am ready."
As his voice faded, a faintly discernible aura burst forth from the third generation's not-so-tall body.
This is the bearing of a ninja hero, even if he is over 60 years old, this bearing is still the same as before.
"Yes, and your good disciple has led the war to this point, he shouldn't let us down."
Mitokado Homura also smiled faintly. After a series of wars, even the higher-ups like him gradually felt a sense of trust in Minato.
As long as the blond man is there, he may be able to save all the decline.
On the other side, Danzo's expression became more gloomy, but … the current situation is not something he can control.
Although he is one of the elders of Wood Leaf, he has no way to influence the thoughts of the other two.
...
Back at Root's headquarters, Danzo glanced gloomily at the strange and gloomy Root headquarters, then said to a member behind him.
"Send a few people to sneak into the Land of Rain, no matter what method you use, you must figure out the information about the so-called Akatsuki!"
