Chapter 437: Only I Know the Bitterness Behind It

The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Cloud Hidden Village suddenly vanished inexplicably inside the camp.

The Second Generation Raikage, after the Third Generation Earth Shadow's warning, pointed the spear at Lian Ye.

The one who can silently make Bu Lu Bi disappear in the camp and who can use the Flying Thunder God, Lian Ye, is the most suspect.

Moreover, Lian Ye also has a precedent of killing a Four-tailed Jinchuriki.

If someone harbors ill intent and secretly infiltrates the Cloud Hidden camp, uses the Flying Thunder God Technique to relocate Bu Lu Bi, then kills him with the Kaleidoscope Sharingan.

It is not an impossible thing.

As for the motive?

It is nothing but a desire to weaken Cloud Hidden Village's combat power by killing the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

With Iwagakure Village and Cloud Hidden Village having lost their Tailed Beasts, the powerful Konoha Village can secure victory.

The Second Generation Raikage and the Third Generation Earth Shadow gathered together to discuss a countermeasure.

Because the Third Generation Water Shadow was slain by Lian Ye not long ago.

The one who came to the meeting this time is the Temporary Water Shadow, also battlefield commander, nominated by Kirigakure Village.

"The Konoha Poison Master relies on the Flying Thunder God, and basically doesn't consider us at all!"

The Second Generation Raikage slammed an angry fist onto the table, and the solid wood table instantly sprouted several cracks.

The Flying Thunder God Technique used by Lian Ye is said to be unstoppable on the battlefield.

Even the combined forces of the Three Shadows are no match for him.

The key point is that he was also counter‑killed by one person.

To them, this is an immense humiliation.

"Raikage, please calm down."

Da Ye Mu frowned at the hot‑head, feeling a bit of a headache.

He destroys things at the slightest disagreement.

Having such an allied teammate, no wonder they are constantly suppressed by Konoha.

"Calm down? Bu Lu Bi is missing now; how can you make me stay calm?!"

The Second Generation Raikage said in a flustered, angry tone.

He was worried that Bu Lu Bi might meet misfortune, so he didn't let him go to the battlefield.

Who could have thought Lian Ye would dare to infiltrate the camp?

One moment of inattention, and the village's Jinchuriki is gone!

If they don't seize the time to search soon, Bu Lu Bi's life may be lost.

Perhaps he's already gone, but it's still possible.

"Raikage, I understand how you feel," Da Ye Mu comforted, "but our primary goal now is to kill the Konoha Poison Master!"

Only if that damned Uchiha Shun dies can they launch a full assault on Konoha.

A while ago, if Lian Ye hadn't come to support at the crucial moment, Shanjiaoyu Banzang would have been killed by them long ago.

As a result, not only did they fail to kill Banzang, the Third Generation Water Shadow also ended up with a body and head separated.

Later, the Kirigakure ninjas learned the news, and only headless corpses remained on the ground.

There wasn't even a whole corpse.

"I wonder what the esteemed Earth Shadow Lord thinks," the Temporary Water Shadow asked curiously.

He was previously a guard for the Third Generation Water Shadow, and this is his first time participating in such a meeting.

He doesn't understand many things, so he can only be more respectful toward the two Kage.

Who made them the senior veterans?

Da Ye Mu gave him an approving glance, thinking to himself that this guy is more reliable than the Raikage.

Then, he began to outline this time's plan.

"Although the Konoha Poison Master's Flying Thunder God gives everyone a serious headache, I have a way to prevent him from using the Flying Thunder God!"

Both of them lit up at his words.

"Earth Shadow, why didn't you bring out your method earlier?" the Second Generation Raikage said with some displeasure.

If the Earth Shadow had done this from the start, they wouldn't have been beaten to a pulp.

"Earth Shadow Lord, what is the specific method?" the Temporary Water Shadow hurriedly asked.

"In Iwagakure Village we have a sealing technique; once cast, it can prohibit the use of Space Ninjutsu within a certain area."

Da Ye Mu didn't hold back and revealed his plan.

"If the Konoha Poison Master steps into the sealing technique's range, the Flying Thunder God Technique cannot be executed!"

"Ha ha, doesn't that mean we can slaughter him at will?" the Second Generation Raikage smiled.

"Don't get too happy early; even without the Flying Thunder God, that guy is still very hard to deal with!" Da Ye Mu quickly warned.

Fearing that the hot‑head might get a flash of brain and rush forward to sacrifice his own head.

One must know that Lian Ye possesses the Kaleidoscope Sharingan!

Hearing this, the Second Generation Raikage gradually calmed down, acknowledging that the Earth Shadow was correct.

The Konoha Poison Master had forged a formidable reputation on the battlefield back then.

What he relied on wasn't the Flying Thunder God.

The Second Generation Raikage felt a bit overwhelmed, wondering why that guy kept getting stronger.

If they can't kill Lian Ye in this war, they may never have a chance in the future.

"When the time comes, we'll coordinate tacitly to kill the Poison Master within a short time!" the three gathered together and began to discuss the battle details.

The Temporary Water Shadow always felt the plan was a bit unreliable, but it was for avenging the Water Shadow Lord.

We can only try it for now.

If we fail again this time, Kirigakure Village plans to surrender to Konoha.

If we keep fighting with no hope of victory, the Mist Hidden Ninja will eventually feel despair.

Might as well surrender outright.

"The enemy army's offensive is getting weaker each day; I reckon they're about to surrender."

At the Konoha Camp, everyone sat around the fire discussing.

"The war has only been going on for a month, and it's already ending so quickly?"

"Who made Konoha so powerful now."

"Haha, I can already picture Tuan Cang's arrogant face at the negotiation table."

A few of them couldn't help but smile.

"What do you plan to do after the war ends?" Yuanfei Rizhan suddenly asked.

He then began to ask himself and answer.

"Anyway, after the war I plan to stay home and spend time with my kids; I've been busy handling paperwork and have ignored their feelings."

Lian Ye: "???".

In a normal storyline, an NPC who says something like that usually dies the fastest.

Fortunately, Ri Zhan is not an NPC, so he probably won't die here.

"When the war ends, I plan to go home and get a good sleep," Xiaochun Zhuanqin said with a smile. "On the battlefield I'm always tense and can never sleep soundly."

A few of them started a scattered discussion about what to do when they return to the village.

Only Lian Ye did not take part.

He always feels that saying such things on the battlefield is inauspicious.

Such words are equivalent to saying "once this batch is done, I'll retire for good," which directly raises the risk of death.

"Lian Ye, what about you?"

The others noticed Lian Ye still hadn't spoken, so they all looked at him curiously.

Now it seems he has to answer.

"Going home to lie in the sun, I hate the weather of Rain Country."

Having been in Rain Country for a month, he never saw a sunny day, let alone basked in sunlight.

A few of them felt somewhat helpless at his words.

Why does this guy Lian Ye think about sunbathing all day long?

The point is, after years of sun exposure, his skin hasn't turned dark.

Xiaochun Zhuanqin was extremely envious of that.

He could only console himself, saying that people's constitutions differ…

"Lian Ye, is sunbathing all you have to do?"

Yuanfei Rizhan said with a mix of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

He spends every day in the office laboriously reviewing documents, and occasionally quarrels with Tuan Cang over differing philosophies.

Eventually Tuan Cang was removed from the Hokage position, and he could only endure the humiliation.

Uchiha Jing also wore an envious expression.

He needs to reconcile the family's and the village's conflicts, constantly fearing a full‑blown outbreak.

People are more aggravating than the dead.

Lian Ye felt somewhat helpless about this; don't be fooled by his daily slackness.

But the bitterness behind it is known only to himself.

Even just one Ban Daye is enough to give him a headache.
