Chapter 458 Proposal and Gathering

Hear the general's words.

Onoki also nodded happily.

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!
