Chapter 363 Backstab, backstab, and backstab again
This sounded more reliable than his own plan.
As for how many people will die in this turmoil...
Nagato's eyes became profound:
There is no so-called best of both worlds in this world.
Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain!
The kindness in his heart had already died with Yahiko on the day he died.
If necessary, he will take action——
As an ally of Uchiha Qianye!
"I understand, then let's go meet the Fifth Hokage together."
"Have you found that Orochimaru guy?"
"No, he is well hidden and no trace of him can be found at all."
"I have a headache, and I still want to give this snake as a gift to the Godaime."
"Nagato, Zetsu's movements lately have been very strange, you have to be careful."
Nagato narrowed his eyes and thought: "Is there something wrong with the masked man who calls himself 'Uchiha Madara'?"
"It's such an eventful time," Nagato warned: "Xonan, the water in the Ninja world is too deep now. We must hurry up and meet with the Fifth Hokage again. I need to have a deeper understanding of his plans for the future."
"I understand," Xiaonan nodded: "I will send an official letter to the Fifth Hokage in the name of Hanzo of Amegakure Village."
"No, it's not an official letter."
"Not an official letter?"
Facing Xiaonan's confused eyes, Nagato said seriously: "It's a greeting."
Greetings?!
Could it be that Nagato is planning to go to Konoha to visit the Fifth Hokage in person?
"Nagato, isn't this too dangerous?" Xiaonan felt a little worried.
Konoha is the home base of Uchiha Chiya.
Going deep into the enemy's lair is really not a wise move.
As the saying goes, if many ants kill an elephant, Uchiha Chiya is not even an ant.
He is the dragon soaring in this sky!
It would be bad if Uchiha Qianye had any thoughts about the Rinnegan.
"Konan, I don't think the Fifth Hokage will take a peep at my Rinnegan."
Nagato coughed twice, his voice was hoarse, but there was a lot of confidence in it:
"Don't worry if my judgment is really wrong. Don't forget Yahiko's ability."
Yahiko is the god of heaven.
The Super Shinra Tensei is a terrifying forbidden technique that can instantly raze Konoha to the ground.
At this stage, Nagato has the confidence to have an equal dialogue with Qianye.
This confidence comes from his strength!
"I understand, I will submit a greeting card to Konoha."
...
Talk about both ends.
Qianye released such a large satellite to the outside world, causing thousands of waves in the Ninja Temple world. What was he planning?
Operation reduces intelligence?
Substitution?
In fact, it is neither.
He had his own purpose in doing this.
The Temple of the Evening Cloud.
It was the Xiyun Temple that had helped Qianye trick many of his comrades to death.
Due to the fact that all the ninja monks in the barrier at that time, except for Yugumo Temple, all died.
Although these Ninja monks managed to escape back to the Ninja Temple, they were planning to flee and pack up their gold and silver and run away.
In the end, he was stared at by other Ninja temples because of many suspicions.
Why did you escape when all your fellow disciples and brothers were interested in you?
Isn't this right?
Isn’t that unreasonable?
If you Yuunji Temple were really that strong, you would have long since replaced Fire Temple and become the talker in the Ninja Temple world.
Now that everyone has been destroyed in the capital, and you are the only one who has escaped, there must be something fishy!
If anything happens to them, there is no need for Qianye to send his ninjas to take action, Xiyun Temple will become a thing of the past!
The Ninja Temple is now quite embarrassed, and externally, it is facing a purge order from Konoha.
Inside, he is not trusted by everyone, is ostracized from both sides, and is in a difficult situation.
The nobles behind this Ninja Temple have also been completely purged. Needless to say, without the benefits of the nobles, it will be a matter of time for Yuun Temple to become history.
"Guys, tell me, what should we do now?"
"What can we do? Let me say that the most appropriate thing to do is to obey the orders issued by the Fifth Hokage."
"Then the host's grudge is settled like this?"
"The host has made such a tragic sacrifice for the inheritance of our Xiyun Temple. You want to avenge the host. Are you tired of living?"
"Haha, inheritance? In the future, there will be a ghost inheritance in the Land of Fire!
Uchiha Senya, that killer, said that he would abolish all obscene temples and abolish the office of monks!"
"From now on, there will be no Ninja Temple in the Land of Fire."
"If you want to surrender or escape, that's your business. Konoha and I are different!"
Whoever said this must have a blood feud with Konoha.
Many Ninja monks implicitly supported him.
As mentioned before, over hundreds of years, the bond between the Ninja Temple and the nobles has been quite deep.
To a certain extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Ninja Temple is an extraordinary version of the nobles.
The group of ninja monks who threatened to fight Qianye and Konoha to the end were from noble families.
Their family was slaughtered by the ninjas of Konoha, leaving no chickens or dogs behind.
How could they let go of such a bloody feud?
People like this account for a large number of people in ninja temples all over the Land of Fire.
"Fight to the end? What are you going to fight with Konoha to the end? Don't drag us with you if you want to die!"
"My opinion is very simple. Whether you want revenge or return to secular life, don't stop us from leaving the Country of Fire! We will abide by the host's last wish and let the inheritance of Xiyun Temple continue."
The three parties, the capitulation faction, the escape faction and the main fighting faction, are mixed together, which is dizzying.
The most powerful ninja monk in Xiyun Temple said coldly:
"Okay, stop arguing here. What's the point of continuing to argue like this? Come up with a decision as soon as possible."
"We talk softly, but we can't make any decisions."
"Senior brother, if you have any suggestions, you might as well share them."
"It's not like everyone doesn't know what senior brother is capable of. What good advice can he give?"
"Senior brother, if you still regard yourself as a member of Xiyun Temple, stop saying words that make everyone feel sick."
The most powerful monk is called Sanyuan, and he is a member of the group that accompanies the host Kong Wu to the royal capital.
His status in the Ninja Temple is equal to that of Jilu, and he is highly valued by the abbot.
If there had not been any previous changes, it would have been a certainty that Sanyuan would take over as host once Kongwu passed away.
Now, because of Uchiha Qianye's decision, his life trajectory has undergone a major deflection.
He listened to the sarcasm coming from his ears, his face expressionless:
"Do you know what you are fighting against?"
Sanyuan thought of that figure, and there was uncontrollable fear deep in his eyes, and his voice trembled:
"You are going against the gods!"
Uchiha Qianye left an indelible shadow in his heart.
These days, whenever he goes to bed at night, he will dream about that day.
Countless times, he dreamed that he did not escape from the barrier, but that like everyone else in the barrier, Uchiha Qianye used fire escape to evaporate the water in his body alive and turned into a mummy!
That nightmare followed him like a shadow, lingering in his mind.
His fear of Qianye has been rooted deep in his soul.
There are many like him.
Without exception, they are all survivors of the trip to the royal capital.
Resist Uchiha Chiya?
Fight against that monster?
What a joke!
So many comrades died easily in his hands!
so......
Don't blame senior brother for being ruthless.
I have given you the opportunity, but you don't know how to cherish it.
"Since everyone can't reach consensus, let's vote by a show of hands. The minority obeys the majority."
Sanyuan's face was expressionless: "Those who want to fight Konoha to the end stand on my left, those who want to leave the Country of Fire with the Ninja Temple inheritance stand on the right, and those who decide to follow Konoha's edict stand in the middle."
Wow.
This group of ninja monks was divided into three waves.
There are only a handful of people who want to leave the Country of Fire with their inheritance.
The Ninja monks who decided to fight Konoha to the end accounted for more than half, which was much more than the number of the Runaways and Surrenders combined.
This shows how thorough this purge operation was.
"Brother, the answer is obvious. It's time for you to make a decision." The leader elected by the main war faction looked at Sanyuan and said coldly.
"Yes, it's time to make a decision." Sanyuan's eyes were complicated.
Soon, this complexity disappeared and became firm.
He firmly believes that he has done nothing!
Mortals cannot resist gods!
There is no shame in bowing down and worshiping in front of gods.
"Let's do it." As soon as Sanyuan's voice fell, the surrendering ninja monks dispersed and surrounded the main fighting faction.
The Runner's heart was beating wildly.
The leader of the main war faction stared at Sanyuan:
"what do you mean?"
Sanyuan did not answer his question, but said loudly:
"Lord Yuhi Hong, the rebels have been targeted. Please help us eliminate this group of enemies who are stubbornly resisting."
Yuhihong?!
Ninjas of Konoha!!!
Could it be that Sanyuan, the bastard, betrayed them and defected to Konoha?
"Kill out!" His words had not yet finished.
Boo hoo hoo.
Dark shadows appeared in the main hall, and Kurenai Yuhi led a group of Konoha ninjas to appear.
She stepped on the Buddha statue, her crimson eyes fell on the main warrior, and there was no unnecessary expression on her cold face:
"Anyone who does not obey Hokage-sama's will will be killed without mercy!"
Bloody killings appeared in the main hall.
The hot blood dyed the Buddha statue enshrined inside red.
The kind-hearted Buddha watched all this, and nothing changed.
God?
From today on, there can only be one god in the Land of Fire!
Ordinary ninja monks are not qualified to practice the talents of the immortal clan.
The strongest among them is the Jonin.
Now that the ninjas of Konoha have joined forces with the surrender faction of Yugumo Temple, their strength is undoubtedly a crushing match against the main fighting faction.
This unequal killing came to an end quickly.
After about 10 minutes, there was no longer a living ninja monk from the main fighting faction.
Their corpses lay scattered in the hall.
Konoha's ninjas and the surrender faction also all suffered losses, and two people unfortunately died.
Yuhi Hong stepped on the pool of blood, and there were several dead bodies lying near her with expressions of horror.
The blood was still dripping down along the sharp edge of the kunai, falling into the blood puddle, causing ripples in circles:
"In the name of Hokage-sama, from today on, you will continue to carry out activities in the name of Yugumo Temple."
Sanyuan was confused when he heard this.
"Yuhi...Yuhi Hong-sama, did we hear wrongly?"
"I heard you right, you must continue to operate within the radiation range of Konoha's power in the name of Yugumo Temple."
Sanyuan became more and more confused.
He didn't understand what Yuhi Hong's order meant.
Yuhi Hong was confused when she received this order from Qianye.
She didn't understand why Qianye had to go in such a big circle.
Just kill all these enemies directly.
Although rats are difficult to bite to death, they can disgust people very well.
Qianye told her this at that time:
"Red, the ninja world is in too much chaos now. If we in Konoha can quell the civil strife early, do you think it will be a good thing or a bad thing?"
After Yuhi Kurenai thought about it, she cautiously replied: "Hokage-sama, I think this is a good thing for Konoha."
Qianye deliberately cultivates Hong: "Why?"
There are too few people in Konoha.
If you want to control the Fire Nation and the Pan-Central United Convention Organization with the Fire Nation as its core, you must divide the power.
If you have everything in your own hands, there is no need to practice cultivation.
Even if you use the technique of multiple shadow clones to handle government affairs, you can’t even finish it!
He must give away his power and finally form a power circle with him as the absolute center.
He influences these core people through himself.
After receiving his orders, these personnel will implement his orders.
This is the correct way to play.
And if you want to do this, you must increase your efforts to cultivate your own subordinates.
Although he is from the Uchiha clan, it is absolutely impossible for him to be the only Uchiha clan in the power circle.
Hong is one of his favorite candidates.
They do not need to be very proficient in how to govern, but they must have a high-level strategic vision and be able to understand his strategic layout, rather than being the executor of specific tactics.
"Other ninja village forces in the ninja world are very afraid of us. Even the Sunagakure Village that you defeated has always regarded us as imaginary enemies secretly."
"If we in Konoha can clear away the civil strife in the Land of Fire in advance, we can develop with peace of mind while the civil strife is raging outside."
As a high-ranking official in Konoha, Kurenai is also aware of the dilemma of the village being in dire straits.
Her analysis was not wrong.
However, everything is complex and multi-faceted and cannot be viewed or analyzed from a single perspective.
"If we in Konoha put down the civil strife early, we can certainly gain cherished peaceful development time, but at the same time, it will also arouse the high degree of fear from other ninja villages."
What the enemy wants to do is what I should stop.
As long as Qianye is alive, Konoha's development cannot be stopped.
But they definitely don't want to see Konoha racing like a chicken.
"I can even guess what they will do next."
Her beautiful red eyes blinked, staring at Qianye intently, listening carefully.
Qianye sat on the throne of Daming Mansion, crossed his hands, and said sarcastically: "They will end it hastily and have peace talks with the nobles in their own country."
Hong Ying's lips parted slightly, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "How is this possible?!"
