Chapter 569

Then the question arose: five hours ago, why did this Konoha ninja come here?

And who would have killed him?

Han picked up the broken clothing fragment and the kunai and came to the side of this Konoha ninja's corpse.

After some investigation, Han clearly saw that there was an obvious missing piece in the lower right corner of this Konoha ninja's clothing, and when he placed the cloth fragment in his hand to compare it with the missing part, he found that it formed a perfect overlap.

Han looked at the kunai in his hand again; it seemed just right for cutting off this corner of the clothing...

Up to here, Han had roughly inferred the truth in his heart, and had at least ninety percent certainty.

Five hours ago, this Konoha ninja, together with his companions, came here. They first disguised many traces of Lightning Release attacks on the ground.

Afterward, they buried the Cloud Ninja fragmented corpses underground and left behind the shattered Cloud Ninja forehead protector.

Finally, because of some reason, this Konoha ninja was killed by his companions, buried here, and his clothing corner and a kunai produced in the Land of Fire were left behind to set up a false trail.

The purpose was to use the method of "true and false" to confuse Han, who came to investigate, and make Han have the thought that "such obvious evidence must be a frame-up."

Compared to the Konoha ninja corpse and cloth/kunai that were easily found, the Cloud Ninja fragmented corpses and forehead protector fragments that the Rock Ninjas spent time and effort to dig out from the ground, didn't they look more convincing?

Up to here, everything had truly come to light.

And why did the Konoha ninjas go to great lengths to forge evidence at the scene, trying to frame the Cloud Ninja ninjas?

The answer was naturally ready to come out—that was, the real culprit of this attack was originally Konoha ninjas!

And this was also completely consistent with the initial speculation of Tsuchikage Onoki.

Looking at the sky that was gradually turning dark, a trace of depth flashed in Han's eyes.

Finally, he looked at the town on the side, thought for a moment, and said.

"Let's go, there might be something else in the town nearby."

After speaking, Han walked toward the town immediately. Behind him, a Rock Ninja asked with some hesitation.

"Lord Han, what about these corpses..."

Hearing this, Han's footsteps did not stop at all, and he even said without looking back.

"Bury them, they are useless now."

Seeing this situation, a Rock Ninja performed Earth Release and buried all the Cloud Ninja fragmented corpses and the Konoha ninja's corpse under this scorched earth.

Perhaps next spring, the flowers blooming here would be more vibrant than in other places.

In the town, Mizunuki Ryosuke listened to the situation reported by Kaguya Yuta, and a little interest appeared in his eyes.

"Interesting..."

He didn't expect that this time Konoha would actually choose to send Danzo.

This was really great!

This was really someone sending a pillow when he was sleepy. He was just worried about the pressure when throwing this pot out, and Konoha sent the "Pot King" directly. If he didn't make good use of it, wouldn't he be unworthy of Danzo's title of "Darkness of the Ninja World."

Previously, after succeeding in attacking Iwagakure's logistics troops, Mizunuki Ryosuke immediately let the intelligence personnel in the Land of Frost find a way to reveal everything to Konoha.

Mizunuki Ryosuke was certain that after Konoha learned this news, they would definitely choose to intervene.

And taking advantage of this timing was the best opportunity to drag Konoha into the water.

All of Mizunuki Ryosuke's plans utilized the differences caused by the asymmetry of information and intelligence on his side.

At present, whether it was Kumogakure, Iwagakure, or Konoha, all three parties were kept in the dark.

Bee, who had been following Mizunuki Ryosuke, also had no opportunity to pass intelligence to Kumogakure, which was far away in the Land of Lightning.

And because of this, because the information they came into contact with was different, the ways the three viewed the problem were also completely different.

At this moment, the only one who mastered all the situations was Mizunuki Ryosuke, who planned this attack. Also because he mastered these, Mizunuki Ryosuke could plan against the three major nations to his heart's content.

The so-called knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, winning a hundred battles, was just like this.

First was the Iwagakure side. As the party directly suffering losses, Iwagakure's mastery of all information and intelligence was second only to Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Iwagakure knew clearly in their hearts that Kumogakure did not have the ability to attack their logistics line, and after excluding Kumogakure, Iwagakure would naturally suspect Konoha.

And for Konoha, after learning the news that Iwagakure's logistics line was destroyed, Konoha would subconsciously believe that this must be Kumogakure's handiwork.

Because Konoha was completely ignorant of the news that Kumogakure was blocked in the Land of Lightning and could not break through.

The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and the battle intelligence between Kumogakure and Iwagakure was the most top-secret of top secrets. Even Konoha could not easily obtain Kumogakure's current situation.

Under this situation, what would Sarutobi Hiruzen, as Hokage, think?

Based on Mizunuki Ryosuke's understanding of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he would definitely be anxious to clear the relationship between this matter and Konoha, and there was even a great possibility that Sarutobi Hiruzen would rely on the advantage of being closer to the Land of Frost to send people to "clean up the mess."

In this back and forth, Mizunuki Ryosuke had room to "operate" from within.

Of course, even if Konoha remained silent, Mizunuki Ryosuke had plenty of ways to lead this fire to Konoha.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen's actions would also become a move of "being too clever only to be hoist with his own petard" and "bringing disaster upon himself."

For Kumogakure, who still knew nothing, they would be dragged on the front battlefield by the Rock Ninjas who "suddenly went crazy" and launched a large-scale offensive. As for whether Kumogakure was happy or worried, it would depend on what the Third Raikage thought.

But what Mizunuki Ryosuke didn't expect was that this time, Danzo would come in person from Konoha.

Danzo's personal arrival almost indicated that Mizunuki Ryosuke's guess was very correct, and everything was developing in the direction Mizunuki Ryosuke expected.

And Danzo was Danzo, not disappointing Mizunuki Ryosuke at all.

After listening to Kaguya Yuta's description of Danzo's various behaviors, a smile appeared on Mizunuki Ryosuke's face.

His plan could succeed, and he really had to thank Danzo for saving him a lot of trouble.

"Brother Danzo, I've troubled you."

"Debts don't worry when there are many, lice don't bite when there are many."

Recalling the incident in the Land of Rain last time, a feeling of emotion appeared on Mizunuki Ryosuke's face.

The feeling of having someone behind you to take the blame for you was really too cool.

You can never imagine Sarutobi Hiruzen's happiness. ===== CHAPTER 571 =====
