"???" Lin Jiu was suddenly reminded, and his eyes were full of doubts. Why did his popularity suddenly drop by 30 points, leaving only 20 points?
"Did someone have an accident over there?" Lin Jiu quickly used the communicator to communicate with the two groups of dispatched personnel, but there was no accident.
Lin Jiu could only frown and temporarily gave up investigating the reason for this loss of progress.
…
Hidden Sand Village.
"Everyone, I have decided to prepare an attack on Konoha in the Land of Fire in the next two years." At the beginning of the meeting, the Third Kazekage got straight to the point. After hearing these words, none of the surrounding high-ranking jounin showed any surprise.
If you think about it carefully, you can see that Sunagakure Village has been secretly accumulating strength since the last ninja war, laying the groundwork for the war that they will personally trigger soon.
It can be said that the upcoming Ninja World War this time will completely continue the unfinished war of the last time and is inevitable. In the last Ninja World War, Konoha Village still won, but this is not the first time.
The suppressive power during the Ninja World War was such that even the Second Hokage died in it.
"The elite team led by Konoha White Fang is like a sharp knife. We need the elite Jonin team to be prepared and fight to the death to deal with Konoha White Fang." The Third Kazekage pointed out the problems they need to solve first when they start a war with Konoha.
Hatake Sakumo is not the kind of ninja suitable for frontal battlefields. The elite team he leads is like a sharp blade, penetrating their rear, forcing them to invest more strength in defense.
It is not easy for big countries like them to start a war. This time, they just held a simple meeting to prepare all the senior officials of Sunagakure Village.
"Master Kazekage, there are two people outside the village who say they are from the Akatsuki organization..."
"Let them come in." The Third Kazekage just finished the meeting and had some time. He first asked someone to go over and notify them to enter the village, and then walked to the place where Shuichiro Murura was staying temporarily. He was thinking about whether after the war started in Sunagakure Village,
We can use the power of the Akatsuki Organization.
The members of the Akatsuki organization are not very strong, but the power of their leader is still worth utilizing.
"How are you living here?" The Third Kazekage still wanted to use the Akatsuki organization, and his attitude towards Shuichiro Murura was a little gentler.
"Uh... not bad." Shuichiro Murura felt a slight change in the Third Kazekage's attitude, and felt that the other party probably didn't have any good intentions towards them.
"Kazekage-sama." The Suna ninja who was leading the way for people outside the village bowed respectfully to the Third Kazekage and stood aside to look at these outsiders.
"Entrust me with the task." Kakuzu doesn't care about the Kazekage or not. For him, making money is the most important thing. But that doesn't mean he will ignore the Kazekage. The Kages of the five major national ninja villages are on the bounty list.
The prices listed above are all top-notch.
Kakuzu felt extremely itchy, but he also knew that this was the territory of Sunagakure Village. If he tried here, even if he had five lives, he would not be able to kill Kazekage.
Therefore, Kakuzu chose to keep the Third Kazekage out of sight as much as possible, and asked Shuichiro Chaomura for a task order to divert his attention.
Hidan, on the other hand, was looking at the shadow of Sunagakure Village fearlessly, ready to make a move. However, he had been "admonished" by someone before coming here, so he didn't dare to cause any trouble.
"Kazekage-sama, thank you for the hospitality, we will take our leave now." Shuichiro Murura politely said goodbye to the Third Kazekage, and followed Kakuzu and others to leave. He still felt that it was safer to stay in the town he built, in this kind of town
The great ninja village felt uneasy.
When the three of them were sent out of Sunagakure Village, some Suna ninjas were very dissatisfied with the attitude of the Kakuzu duo and complained directly: "The guy in front was quite polite, why are the two coming from behind so rude?
Master Ying has no sense of awe at all."
"That guy looks a bit familiar. I seem to have heard of it somewhere..."
"Because of strength..." The Third Kazekage frowned, and his initial relaxation towards the Akatsuki organization was brought up again.
He originally thought that the leader, Chi, was the strongest combat force in the Akatsuki organization. Whose department was this... ahem, but the strength of this masked ninja was not much different.
And compared to their leader's restrained aura, this ninja didn't hide it at all, giving him a sense of threat even greater than that of the leader of the Akatsuki organization.
"Kazekage-sama, I remembered, that is the S-class rebel ninja Kakuzu from Taki Ninja Village, a bounty hunter active in the ninja world." A Suna ninja who is responsible for keeping an eye on the underground bounties in the ninja world said Kakuto.
identity of.
"This is a demonstration!" The Third Kazekage knew clearly that the guy named Shuichiro Murura could have gone back with the task order. But the other party sent two more people to pick up the child in the name of protecting the task order.
I don't know what the situation was, but the bounty hunter's horn was obviously used to show force.
"A bounty hunter who hunts down ninjas everywhere in the ninja world...doesn't look like a serious organization."
…
…
[Task progress: 120 (+100)]
That's right, Lin Jiu was demonstrating with force, making the Third Kazekage feel threatened by the Akatsuki organization. Because they had barely reached a cooperation before, it would not cause the Sunagakure Village to fall out, and these great ninja villages would only think about it when faced with a mercenary organization.
How to use it.
In the eyes of these great ninja villages, the mercenary organization is just a force that relies on disputes and has no influence on them. It is more important to keep an eye on other ninja villages that are ready to take action.
"This point will be added back." Lin Jiu smiled slightly. The situation in Sand Hidden Village was as he expected. He is now heading to Yanyin Village, although he doesn't really want to deal with this village.
The old man Ohnoki of Iwagakure Village is cunning and cunning, and he is very good at using external forces like the Akatsuki Organization to create benefits for his own village.
Obviously Onoki would not object to using the Akatsuki organization to carry out part of the war. But when dealing with Iwagakure, Lin Jiu's vigilance had been raised to the maximum, and he was ready to take action at any time.
Lin Jiu, an old guy like Ohnoki, would not try to figure out his thoughts, and the dust escape mastered by the opponent was much more troublesome to Lin Jiu than other abilities.
It can fly higher than the Third Kazekage's magnetic escape, has stronger destructive power, and has a farther attack range. It is one of the enemies Lin Jiu least wants to encounter.
Apart from the Kirigakure Village, which is far away from the sea and is isolated from the world, Iwagakure Village is the most conservative of the many villages. Its geographical location is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so the number of wars has been rare. However, the poor geography has also affected them.
Exchanges with other countries in peacetime.
In Lin Jiu's view, Iwagakure Village and Kirigakure Village are two extremes. Kirigakure Village uses cruel methods to select the ninja in his heart, and the survival probability is low, but the remaining Kirigakure Village is very strong.
Iwagakure Village emphasizes the importance of will, and the result is that the strongest ninjas among the same level are very strong, and the weak ninjas are weaker than other ninja villages. The problem is that there are not many strong ones, and the top ninjas can hold up the scene.
Too little.
As said, he is very strong, and Lin Jiu may become one of the top strong men in the ninja world.
