Chapter 235: , the spreading turmoil
As the gateway for the Land of Lightning to face the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth, the Land of Moon's strategic importance could not be lost for the Hidden Cloud!
The Third Raikage naturally could not watch the Land of Moon fall into the hands of the Hidden Rock.
If the lips are gone, the teeth are cold; how could the Third Raikage not understand this truth?
In the Raikage's office, the Third Raikage paced back and forth, his burly body exuding anxiety and anger.
"Now you first order the troops in the Land of Moon to shrink their defense."
"At the same time, assemble all the ninjas in the Hidden Cloud who can participate in the war!"
The Third Raikage ordered a Cloud ninja beside him in a muffled voice, his muffled voice filled with suppressed anger.
"Yes!"
"Raikage-sama!"
A Cloud ninja responded and immediately went to execute the Third Raikage's order.
"What about the Hidden Leaf?"
The Third Raikage suddenly remembered something and asked another Cloud ninja beside him.
"News from the Hidden Leaf says that a large number of Rain ninjas who should have been fighting the Hidden Rock have suddenly appeared in the Land of Fire."
"The Rain ninjas have declared war on the Hidden Leaf, and the Land of Fire cannot support us..."
The Cloud ninja reported to the Third Raikage with an ugly face.
"Damn it!!!"
The Third Raikage smashed his fist on the desk in front of him, and the solid wood desk instantly split into eight pieces.
Perhaps the movement was too large, which affected his wounds, causing a trace of blood to seep out again from the gauze wrapped around the Third Raikage's chest.
Suddenly, the Third Raikage, who was in a rage, seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes changed.
"Where is the envoy of the Hidden Mist?"
"Where is the envoy of the Hidden Mist?!"
The Third Raikage suddenly remembered Momochi Zabuza, the Hidden Mist envoy who had come to seek cooperation ten days ago.
"My lord, the envoy of the Hidden Mist has been in the village and has not left."
"He is still in the guesthouse."
The Cloud ninja responded softly to the Third Raikage.
"Quick! Go invite the Hidden Mist envoy to see me!"
A flash of hope appeared in the Third Raikage's eyes, and he immediately ordered the Cloud ninja in front of him.
Land of Fire.
The Rain ninjas, who should have been on the battlefield of the Land of Earth, suddenly appeared in large numbers in the Land of Fire.
A large number of Rain ninjas infiltrated the Land of Fire, where defenses were sparse, and killed a large number of Hidden Leaf ninjas responsible for border defense through assassination.
Afterward, Hanzo of the Salamander took the elite Rain ninjas who had just withdrawn from the border of the Land of Earth and directly invaded the territory of the Land of Fire.
This move of "descending from heaven" directly caught the Hidden Leaf off guard.
Not only that, the Hidden Rock of the Land of Earth and the Rain ninjas of the Land of Rain issued statements at the same time.
Claiming that the war that broke out at the border between the two countries ended in a draw, and that the two countries had reached a reconciliation.
This move of "openly repairing the plank road while secretly crossing the Chencang" by the Rain ninjas and the Hidden Rock really made the Land of Fire and the Land of Lightning unable to predict.
Three of the Five Great Nations, the Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, and the Land of Fire, all fell into the flames of war.
If the Great Nations were like this, it went without saying for the small nations.
Small nations that had had grievances with each other broke out into wars one after another, announcing resolutions to declare war on each other.
Some small nations even chose to take this opportunity to imitate the Rain ninjas of the Land of Rain and launch a war against the Great Nations that had been exploiting them.
Overnight, the entire ninja world was in chaos.
But the Hidden Leaf was the Hidden Leaf after all; the powerful Hidden Leaf would not lose its footing because of the sudden attack of the Rain ninjas.
With the commander already established, the three disciples of the Third Hokage led a large number of Hidden Leaf elites directly to the battlefield.
Supported by a terrifying foundation, the Hidden Leaf instantly mobilized a terrifyingly powerful military force, and this combat power occupied an absolute advantage compared to the Rain ninjas.
Led by Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya, a large number of Hidden Leaf elites arrived at the border of the Land of Fire.
But the experienced Hanzo of the Salamander did not foolishly wait for the arrival of the Hidden Leaf's main force, but after completing a series of: invasions, assassinations, annihilations, destruction, and looting, he retreated to the Land of Rain along the same path.
Because Hanzo of the Salamander knew deeply that since there was a gap in the quality of grassroots ninjas on both sides, if he chose to fight an away game in the Land of Fire, it would be an extremely unfavorable result for the Rain ninjas who were good at Water Release.
Rather than this, it was better to return to the home field of the Land of Rain and wait for the Hidden Leaf's active attack.
And this could also extend the supply line of the Hidden Leaf ninjas, increase the burden on the Hidden Leaf, and Hanzo of the Salamander could use the strategic depth of the Land of Rain to attack the Hidden Leaf's supply line.
It could be said that Hanzo of the Salamander never intended to go head-to-head with the Hidden Leaf from the beginning.
And after Tsunade and the others led the Hidden Leaf ninjas to the front line, they did not choose to continue to advance rashly, but chose to linger and rest at the border.
It is foreseeable that after the Hidden Leaf completes its preparations, it will inevitably attack the Land of Rain with thunderous momentum and seek a decisive battle with the main force of the Rain ninjas.
And who will win, everything is still unknown.
The turmoil in the ninja world blew impartially to every corner of the ninja world.
At this moment, inside the Hidden Sand of the Land of Wind, one of the Five Great Nations, a fierce quarrel broke out.
Kazekage Building, today the high-level officials of the Hidden Sand gathered together, and "rarely" there was no situation of anyone being absent.
And in fact, for several months, this "absence" situation mainly referred to the Third Kazekage himself.
Because the Third Kazekage had been soaking in the Wind Desert for a long time to produce iron sand, the political affairs of the Hidden Sand had recently been handled by Elder Chiyo and Elder Ebizo.
Today, under the repeated orders of Chiyo, the Third Kazekage Sate finally returned to the Hidden Sand.
And when the Third Kazekage entered the conference room of the Kazekage Building, everyone in the room couldn't believe their eyes.
Is this still the Third Kazekage they chose, unruly and handsome?
Soaking in the Wind Desert for two months, with disheveled hair and a beard that had grown to his chest, and hair as messy as a chicken coop, the Third Kazekage sat down on the main seat belonging to the Kazekage without any politeness.
