Chapter 320

~6 min read 1,004 words

Due to Mizunuki Ryosuke's deliberate arrangement, Kaguya Yuta did not kill all the Rock Shinobi led by Han, but deliberately let a few Rock Shinobi go to report to the Rock Shinobi.

In the Rock Shinobi position on the front line of the Land of Moon, Onoki's face was pitch black, and his expression was so gloomy that water could drip from it.

Thanks to the survivors of the Rock Shinobi from the Battle of the Land of Frost, the Third Tsuchikage Onoki clearly learned the results of Han's investigation, as well as the cause and process of the battle in the Land of Frost.

Konoha colluded with the Takigakure to launch an attack on the Rock Shinobi investigation unit.

This led to the near-total annihilation of the Rock Shinobi investigation unit, and the Five-Tails jinchuriki Han lost control in a half-beast state and eventually went missing, life or death unknown.

"Konoha, Takigakure!!!!!"

Onoki finally could no longer endure it and smashed the stone table before him with a punch.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo"

Onoki breathed heavily, calming the anger in his heart.

"Father, please calm down."

Kitsuchi looked at Onoki, who had never been so out of character, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

Kitsuchi, who also knew all the inside story, naturally understood the severity of the problem; with Konoha's "formal defection," the Rock Shinobi had now reached a very dangerous juncture.

"Bastard!!!!"

Hearing Kitsuchi's persuasion, Onoki cursed angrily, his old face flushed red, and his sunken bulbous nose seemed like a thermometer burned red, as if it could explode at any time.

It's just that it's unknown whether he was cursing Konoha, the Cloud Shinobi, or Kitsuchi before him.

"Father"

A trace of complexity flashed in Kitsuchi's eyes, and for a moment he didn't know how to persuade him.

However, Onoki, as a generation of heroes in the ninja world, naturally had a psychological endurance beyond ordinary people; after a brief venting, he calmed down again, weighing the current situation in his heart.

Now Onoki concluded that the destruction of the Rock Shinobi logistics unit was indeed done by Konoha.

Not only that, Konoha's "blatant" interception almost explained their attitude of wanting to fight the Rock Shinobi to the end; in Onoki's view, this was already equivalent to declaring war on the Rock Shinobi.

With the Cloud Shinobi's containment in front and the "covetous" Konoha and "opportunistic" Takigakure in the back.

Even though Onoki didn't understand why Konoha would do this, everything that actually happened forced him to accept the current reality.

The Rock Shinobi had now reached a very dangerous situation.

In this case, a decision must be made as soon as possible; there was no time to think more, and Onoki made up his mind in his heart.

"Fight, we must fight!"

"Order the troops to launch another attack at night!"

"At all costs, consume the Cloud Shinobi's strength for me!"

A trace of determination and ruthlessness flashed in Onoki's eyes, and a cold aura appeared on his body.

"Father, isn't this a bit too risky?"

Even Kitsuchi was startled by Onoki's words.

The Rock Shinobi's situation is so critical, and Onoki still wants to actively attack the Cloud Shinobi? Is this crazy?

Logically speaking, isn't withdrawing troops and pulling out now the best choice?

"No, you're wrong, Kitsuchi."

"We must not withdraw now; not only can we not withdraw, but we must not show the slightest bit of weakness!"

Onoki looked at his son solemnly, deciding to teach him the most important lesson.

"This"

A trace of doubt appeared on Kitsuchi's face; he didn't understand why Onoki would say this.

Seeing Kitsuchi's confusion, Onoki opened his mouth and continued to explain.

"If we withdraw now, let alone whether the Cloud Shinobi will let us go."

"Just imagine, what if Konoha has already laid a net in the Land of Fields and the Land of Frost, waiting for us to drill into it."

"What will happen then?"

Onoki asked Kitsuchi before him; a simple sentence made Kitsuchi break out in a cold sweat.

"At that time, the Rock Shinobi's logistics will be cut off, and we will be blocked from front and back."

"We will become the meal of Konoha and the Cloud Shinobi, and by then, maybe even the jackal Takigakure will be able to get a share from the table!"

Onoki said, gritting his teeth, especially when mentioning Takigakure, his tone was as cold as a piece of solid ice.

"Therefore, we must not only fight, but fight desperately!"

"We must make ourselves look not like food on the plate, but like a hard stone!"

"Whoever intends to eat us, we will break their teeth!"

A trace of depth flashed in Onoki's eyes; old and cunning as he was, he had long been well-versed in the filth of politics and the weaknesses of human nature.

"You mean"

A trace of realization flashed in Kitsuchi's eyes, and he said with some hesitation.

"Child, you must remember."

"There are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal friends."

"Only eternal interests!"

Onoki said faintly, his eyes emitting cold chills.

"Don't think that this group of guys will be an iron plate."

"No one will be willing to accept the request of others to share a piece of the pie after paying the price to defeat the Rock Shinobi."

"And no one is willing to take the initiative to suffer losses and hand over interests to others."

Onoki said coldly; his gaze had no focus, as if he were not in the camp before him, but had already pierced through the curtain of the tent and landed on Konoha in the distant Land of Fire.

A trace of hatred and coldness flashed in his eyes, and he spoke again.

"So what we need to do now is first to negotiate peace with the Cloud Shinobi."

After Onoki finished speaking, a trace of understanding flashed in Kitsuchi's eyes; he suddenly understood the meaning of Onoki's "death before life" move.
