This is the outstanding successor he has chosen. He is obviously a young man in his early 20s, but he has no frivolousness at all. Regarding the situation in front of him, Ohnoki also sees the situation very clearly and thoroughly. This third-generation native
Kage-sama's attitude is naturally to be as good as it gets. The reason why he didn't say it directly at the beginning was that he wanted to see if the Fourth Tsuchikage of his family would be satisfied. The other reason was because of the current situation in the village.
, after all, Shoji is the Tsuchikage, and he is a retired old guy, so he cannot take over the role.
Elderly people who retire must have the consciousness to retire.
Onoki had always scorned the actions of the Third Hokage from the next village. Especially after Minato Namikaze died in the battle, Sarutobi Hiruzen reset himself. Onoki really looked down on him!
It’s not like there are no suitable people in the village, so why do you have to reset yourself!? Isn’t that funny!?
Of course, this is also the case where Onoki doesn't know Tsunade and Jiraiya, but even if he knew it, with Onoki's personality, he would not easily choose to reset himself when living in a different place!
Instead, they will try their best to persuade Jiraiya or Tsunade to inherit the position of Hokage!
"Well, that's fine. This is indeed the safest approach."
Onoki also nodded slightly and said.
"Then when do you plan to contact Konoha and Sunagakure?"
"Well, it depends on the opponent's choice. If they don't come with the intention of peace in the ninja world, now that we Iwa ninja have ceased the war, shouldn't it be time for you two major ninja villages to withdraw their troops?"
General smiled slightly, with a rare cunning look in his eyes, and said with a chuckle.
Hear the general's words.
Ohnoki couldn't help but be startled, and then showed a hint of amusement.
This fourth generation of my family really doesn't look like a young man at all. This way of dealing with it is really very sophisticated.
Kick the ball back to the opponent for processing.
This is really a wonderful first-hand choice!
"Well, then just do it according to your own ideas, Yondaime!"
"Yes, Third Generation-sama!"
It seems that they have made a step back, but in fact they have regained the leadership. After all, the entire ninja world can see that this war was started by the Kumo Hidden Village side, even if it was the territory of the Land of Grass. The Kumo Ninjas
It is an act of accepting the invitation of the Kumo ninja, but an invasion is an invasion. The most important thing is that your Kumo ninja side was caught by the Iwa ninja!
Important figures fell one after another.
Morally speaking, Yun Ren's side is at a definite disadvantage. Although this is a world where the jungle prevails, morality and reputation have no effect or meaning in many cases, but it is based on the strong versus the weak.
For example, the former Iwa ninja treated the Kusanagi ninja, and the Kumo ninja treated the Tang ninja.
In the face of power.
These things are a joke.
But under certain circumstances, these things can play an excellent role, just like the situation in front of you!
Holding the honor of righteousness in hand.
And with an absolute advantage.
This step of concession will definitely make Konoha and Sunagakure's senior leaders feel uncomfortable, but this is a situation they must accept, unless the two major ninja villages are really willing to spend everything they have to fight Iwagakure for Kumoyakure.
The last village battle!
Not to mention that they may not have such courage and courage.
Even if there really is.
The current structure of the ninja world and their own strength may not allow it!
The agreement reached almost did not require any hesitation, and the general immediately dispatched specialized personnel to act as envoys to the area where the Konoha army was stationed.
Sunagakure and Kirigakure each sent corresponding announcements through relevant channels in the name of Shoji, the fourth Tsuchikage.
in this announcement.
The Shoji also clearly stated the reasons behind the outbreak of this war very directly, and even included the threatening words sent by the next four Raikages, and then told the senior officials of Konoha, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure openly.
Don’t you want us Iwa ninja to stop for the sake of the so-called peace in the ninja world?
no problem!
For the sake of the overall situation.
We, Iwagakure, can accept this proposal, but Kumogakure must pay a corresponding price, otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything. And since we, Iwagakure, have stopped, then you Konoha and Sunagakure should also withdraw their troops!
? Or are you the one who wants to start a war in the ninja world!? It’s not for the peace of the ninja world as you said at the beginning!?
Throughout the entire announcement, the generals were almost always standing on the commanding heights of justice!
The attitudes of Sunagakure and Kirigakure are currently unknown.
As the closest Konoha side.
It can be said that on the occasion of receiving this notice from the General.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's brows instantly furrowed. Originally, the Third Hokage had already prepared to fight the Iwa Ninja in order to force the Iwa Ninja to stop the war. However, he did not expect that his family would
As soon as the army arrived at the front line, they stopped the war on the Eastern Front and went directly to the defensive!
Redistributed military power.
The most important thing is that Onoki and the generals came to the front line to confront their Konoha army one after another, and even showed their willingness to accept the moment of peace. This put Sarutobi Hiruzen in a bit of a dilemma!
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen's initial goal was to prevent the Iwa ninja from continuing to attack the Kumo ninja and protect the Kumogakure village, but the Iwa ninja's decisive halting of military operations in his own ninja village would actually embarrass them, the 'peace messengers'.
.
As stated in the notice sent by the envoy sent by the General, since they came for peace, should they withdraw their troops when the purpose is achieved?
Withdraw, I always feel something is wrong there.
If they don't withdraw, under such a situation, it is impossible for Konoha to take the initiative to attack, which means that even the peace and morality at the beginning cannot stand.
Of course, if there is really no choice at all, Sarutobi Hiruzen will not care about what is moral or unjust. But the problem is that they have a choice, and it is clear that there is no danger of overthrowing Kumoyin Village.
We still have to fight for Cloud Hidden Village.
Feel sorry.
Sarutobi Hiruzen really can't do this. Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen is willing, there will probably still be many people in the village who are unwilling. Until then.
This is when Konoha is most distressed.
"Retreating in order to advance? It's really a good idea. I originally thought that Iwagakure Village would attack to the end. If this decision was made by the third Tsuchikage, it would be normal. If it were the fourth generation, then
We really need to re-examine this young man."
Jiraiya, who was sitting in the first place on the right, said this with a look of emotion on his face after reading the announcement.
Originally, after receiving a message from my Hokage teacher outside.
Jiraiya rushed back after a long journey. He had always thought that a bloody battle would break out immediately, but he did not expect that the situation in Iwagakure Village would change so quickly.
No wonder Jiraiya had such an expression.
"Yes, I also agree with Mr. Jiraiya's judgment. The fourth generation Tsuchikage should have seen the trend of the Three Village Alliance and wanted to use this method to gain dominance in the next negotiations and the war with Kumo Ninja.
It should stop here, but it is very likely that it will make very strict demands on the Kumo ninja, just like it did when it defeated Sunagakure Village three years ago!"
Shikaku, who was standing behind Jiraiya, also continued what Jiraiya said at this moment.
In the opinion of Lu Jiu, a military advisor.
This arrangement of Iwagakure Village is really brilliant. Let’s not talk about the future progress. Just looking at the current situation, it will at least make Konoha and Sunagakure lose their original excuse to send troops!
When morality is untenable, unless it is a desperate war, once it enters the negotiation stage, judging from the current situation, the Iwagakure side has the upper hand.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also agreed with Jiraiya and Shikaku's judgment. When the two of them finished speaking, the Third Hokage also nodded slightly.
"snort!"
Danzo, who had been brought to the front line by Hiruzen Sarutobi, also snorted coldly at this moment. Although he didn't say anything, the gloomy color in his pupils became more and more intense.
As the second most outstanding person among the many disciples of the Second Hokage at that time, Danzo could naturally judge things that Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya could see immediately.
It is precisely because of this.
When listening to Jiraiya's words, especially when seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression and movements.
That's why Danzo's expression is so gloomy and ugly.
He knew the character of his best friend of the Hokage very well. When he saw the Iwa ninja taking the initiative to give in, Danzo was almost 100% sure that this battle would not be fought!
This would be a huge deviation from Danzo's own previous predictions and arrangements. The reason why he finally followed Sarutobi Hiruzen even though he was not very willing to come to the front line was because he was Sarutobi Hiruzen's
He was forced to ask and could not refuse, but the most important thing was that he wanted to come to the front line to personally promote this war!
The Uchiha clan's problems have always been a thorn in Danzo's side!
If it is not removed, Danzo will feel like he has a lump in his throat!
Even if he gave up some other opportunities, Danzo planned to take this opportunity to severely damage Iwagakure Village and the Uchiha clan. Yes, after the Uchiha clan was accepted by Iwagakure Village, in Danzo's eyes
, Iwagakure Village is an evil existence!
Not to mention that Uchiha Shoji is still the Shadow of the Village.
That's a big joke!
However, when Danzo made all preparations to come, Iwagakure, or to be more precise, that Uchiha boy actually retreated on his own initiative!?
Danzo didn't believe at all that it was because the Uchiha General was afraid of the Three Village Alliance. Even Danzo felt that the Three Village Alliance could definitely defeat Iwagakure Village, but in his eyes, wasn't the Uchiha clan an evil existence that was not afraid of heaven or earth?
!?
If you take the initiative to make concessions here, there must be a conspiracy involved!
Just to gain the initiative in negotiations!? Even if you kill Danzo, you won’t believe it. They are the most evil clan in the world!
They must be planning something extremely dangerous!
If Danzo is the Hokage, he doesn't care what the Iwagakure village chooses. When the three villages are all gathered together, Danzo will definitely fight first. He still doesn't believe it. The alliance of the three villages cannot defeat a Iwagakure village!
?
Unfortunately, he is not Hokage.
What he can command is only a few two to three hundred subordinates in the root, but even so, Danzo still has to make a final effort!
"Hiruzen, you wouldn't accept that evil Uchiha brat's proposal so easily, would you?"
Danzo opened his exposed left eye wide, looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen on the throne with a very cold and solemn look and asked in a deep voice.
And it was also when I heard Danzo's words.
Jiraiya and Shikaku, who were sitting next to him, frowned. They were both very familiar with Danzo. It could be said that the Uchiha clan would completely deviate from the village, and now it has become its biggest enemy.
.
Danzo definitely deserves a lot of credit!
Although everyone in Konoha F4 is definitely at fault, Danzo's maliciousness on the surface is too obvious and intense. You have to know that even Sarutobi Hiruzen, there are others
The two Hokage advisors are still somewhat disgraceful among the Uchiha clan to choose to trust!
Especially Shisui before, and the general who chose the 'wrong route' at the beginning, don't they all at least think that Sarutobi Hiruzen can be trusted?
But Danzo is the only one, and even the most rational members of the Uchiha clan will not believe this Darkness of Konoha!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In fact, this guy’s character and character are revealed here!
At this moment, Jiraiya and Shikaku could almost guess what their elder meant when they heard Danzo speak!
Naturally, Sarutobi Hiruzen understood it immediately, and at that moment he sighed lightly and said: "Danzo, I understand what you mean, but the current situation does not allow us in Konoha to mess around!
"
to be honest.
Sarutobi Hiruzen himself was also very entangled and hesitant.
It can even be said to be a trace of confusion. From the bottom of his heart, he certainly does not want the war to break out and expand further. He can let the war end without bloodshed in his own Ninja Village. It is naturally best to save Yunyin Village.
of!
But he also knows that if we enter the negotiation stage like this, Iwagakure Village can completely take the lead!
Even if we refer to the war between the Iwa Ninja and the Suna Ninja three years ago and the price the Suna Ninja had to pay in the end, the Kumo Ninja will definitely not be able to get it right this time. The captured Kumo Ninja and the most important Two-Tails
, it is almost certain that the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki cannot be taken back!
This is absolutely a devastating blow to a great ninja village!
Even Sarutobi Hiruzen can imagine that the Iwa Ninja will definitely put forward very harsh conditions later!
Because you really want to speak morally.
The Kumo ninja side was the one who started the war, and they directly used the power of the tailed beasts from the beginning!
This is an obvious fact.
No one can deny it.
In other words, it is impossible for them to blame the Iwa Ninja from a moral point of view, let alone ask the Iwa Ninja side to return the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki unconditionally!
Unless you are willing to fight and defeat the Iwa Ninja once, forcing them to come to the negotiating table, the dominance will be lost.
But in this case, the problem is back to the same one at the beginning.
Konoha, do Sunagakure really want to fight this war for the Kumo ninja?
Sarutobi Hiruzen himself is not willing, let alone other people in the village. This is also what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, 'a difficult situation that does not allow them to mess around'!
"But!"
Danzo's expression was grim, and he was about to say something again, but was forcibly interrupted by Sarutobi Hiruzen waving his hand.
"Forget it, Shikaku, send someone to contact Iwakakure, and also in my name, send a request to the Kazekage, Raikage, and Mizukage each to convene a Five Kage meeting!"
When you are unwilling and don't dare to fight.
Negotiation is the only option.
Of course, even this kind of negotiation has lost its dominance.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was also determined to strive for some benefits for Kumogakure Village as much as possible, such as getting the captured Kumo ninja back, and whether he could win back one of the two tailed beasts, so that the power of Kumogakure Village would not be weakened too much.
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
Shikaku was not surprised by the judgment of his Third Hokage. In the current situation, Shikaku would probably be able to make a similar judgment. Even smart people can see that, and Iwa
The best option is to endure the fight and then negotiate after gaining battlefield advantage.
But after all, it can only be thought about.
Let's not mention Konoha just mentioned, whether Sunagakure is willing to fight for the interests of Kumo ninja, even if it is true that Sarutobi Hiruzen and Rasa, the two village shadows, will overcome all difficulties and are sincerely willing to fight for Kumo ninja.
field.
But it may not really be possible to win!
Not to mention much, just the strength of the Fourth Tsuchikage-Uchiha Shoji revealed in the intelligence is enough to scare the major ninja villages.
One person can suppress the combination of the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki. Even if the Mangekyou Sharingan has a great degree of restraint on the tailed beasts, Shoji's combat power is really incredible, and the most important thing is that
The current Iwagakure Village is not just a strong Uchiha general, but the entire shinobi village is very strong!
Faced with such a terrifying hostile force.
Once defeated, it will really make matters worse, and even if they win after all the difficulties, they will have to reconsider the attitude of Kirigakure Village in the future!
After all, it’s because the risks and benefits required to fight are completely disproportionate!
It's no wonder that Hiruzen Sarutobi could only make such a judgment.
"snort!"
Maybe he realizes that no matter what he says, it doesn't make any sense.
Danzo could only snort coldly, and after taking a deep look at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a gloomy look, he left his seat angrily again and walked away!
Watching his old friend leave in anger.
Sarutobi Hiruzen could only helplessly shake his head.
"Jiraiya, when the Five Kage Conference is confirmed to be held, please come with me again!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Jiraiya in the opposite position and said.
"Well, don't worry, old man."
Jiraiya also nodded lightly and replied.
"Well, I hope this negotiation can go smoothly..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the camp where Iwagakure Village was located in the northwest, and his eyes became profound at this moment.
The Five Shadows Conference was revived.
Since Konoha is unwilling to fight and Iwagakure is willing to talk, Sunagakure and Kirigakure will naturally not have any objections. For Rasa, his idea is to keep Kumogakure.
, Others? That’s something to consider later!
Even Konoha is unwilling, or dare not, to start a war.
Does Luo Sha still dare to go up alone?
As mentioned before, once Konoha shows the slightest intention of retreating, Rasa will definitely be the faster one to give in!
It is better to die later than to die early!
And there is a buffer period, maybe the village will be able to find a way to survive!?
Therefore, for Sarutobi Hiruzen's re-proposed Five Kage Conference, Rasa agreed without any hesitation.
The same goes for Mei Terumi.
As long as Yunyin Village is not destroyed, everything will be fine!
If possible, Terumi Mei is also willing to speak more for Yunyin Village and try to keep Yunyin Village as much vitality as possible, but there is a premise here that it will not affect herself!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is not a question of whether there is a long-term perspective.
But if your own short-term interests cannot be guaranteed, how can you expect others to consider long-term interests? Isn’t that funny!
And when the wishes of the four major ninja villages are already unanimous, the opinions of Kumoyin Village are not that important. Or to put it bluntly, the fourth generation Raikage does not even have the power to refuse, he is too
Now we know the current situation of our Ninja Village!
This one was originally the most proud Kage in the Five Great Ninja Village.
Faced with the current precarious situation of his Ninja Village, he had to choose to bow his head. He knew very well that if he wanted to protect the interests of his Ninja Village and stop this war, he could only rely on the upcoming Five Kage Conference.
Even if the two-tails and eight-tails that fell, as well as those captured cloud ninjas, even if the probability is very low, there is still a certain probability that they can be won back through this Five Kage Conference, although this method is very shameful.
.
But Ai, the Fourth Raikage, had no other choice.
Under the circumstances where the five major ninja villages have reached an agreement one after another.
The time and place for the Five Shadows Conference were also determined accordingly. Three days later, this Five Shadows Conference was held in the capital of the Kingdom of Iron.
In terms of protection.
The Five Shadows can still only bring two people each. These rules are no different from the previous Five Shadows meetings, especially the choice of location, which must always be a neutral country on the mainland!
The Kingdom of Iron is a country of warriors.
Naturally, it is the first choice place for the Five Shadows Conference in the past!
And after all these matters were finalized, the Five Shadows also officially set off towards the location of the capital of the Kingdom of Iron.
The Iron Kingdom also received advance notice from the five major ninja villages.
Although I really don't want to get involved in the affairs of the Five Great Ninja Villages, for a mere Iron Country, it is impossible to refuse.
As the general of the Iron Kingdom and the de facto leader, Mifune immediately started preparing for the Five Kage Conference the moment he received the news.
Especially the selection of the meeting location, as well as the deployment of security and service personnel.
There is no room for error in these!
Even though their Iron Country is a small country.
But Mifune, as a figure who can be said to be the representative of samurai in the entire world, is absolutely unwilling to see any mistakes in the Five Kage Conference!
