Chapter 931: , Looting a Burning House

Thus, a few days before the decisive battle between Konoha and the Rain-nin, almost without any warning, Iwagakure gathered the ten thousand-plus Iwa-nin who had retreated from the Cloud-Lightning battlefield and launched a surprise attack on the Land of Waterfalls silently.

Externally, Iwagakure announced the situation regarding the attack on Iwagakure's logistics troops and the disappearance of the Four-Tails Jinchuriki Han during the previous war against Kumogakure.

Subsequently, while announcing this news, Iwagakure also accused the Takinin of looting a burning house, claiming that all of this was the handiwork of the Takinin, and at the same time, to show the righteousness of this declaration of war, Iwagakure claimed that everything was for revenge.

At the same time, Iwagakure asserted that the Four-Tails Jinchuriki Han had been captured by the Takinin Village, and this trip was to rescue the Steam Ninja Han who was being held prisoner.

The Land of Earth was located at the northernmost end of the Ninja World, and the neighboring Great Nations, Konoha and Kumogakure, were both very clear that Iwagakure was not lying. Because such a thing had indeed happened.

Although all three parties had their own intelligence and understanding of this matter, they would certainly not share the intelligence in their hands with the enemy.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Iwagakure had made up their mind to pin all the blame on the Takinin.

Whether it was Kumogakure or Konoha, both had their own plans at this moment and were clearly in no mood to meddle in the Takinin's business.

Kitsuchi was not stupid either; although in Iwagakure's view, the culprit behind the attack on Iwagakure was always Konoha, and the Takinin could at most be considered an add-on.

But with Konoha's current power, hatred was hatred, but Kitsuchi would not be foolish enough to provoke Konoha at this time.

This campaign launched by Iwagakure against the Takinin was not as complex as the war against Kumogakure.

One must know that the Land of Waterfalls was already right next to the Land of Earth, so this time Iwagakure neither needed to bear a long logistics supply line nor did they need to alert anyone.

Thus, while the Takinin were still in a bewildered state, ten thousand-plus Iwa-nin directly slaughtered their way into the Land of Waterfalls.

The Takinin of the Land of Waterfalls, although already capable of reigning supreme among a crowd of small nations, were clearly not enough to look at when facing a Great Nation going all out.

The gap in national power was right there; even if they held the Seven-Tails in their hands, how could they compare to Iwagakure?

The entire Takinin village, from top to bottom, had less than five thousand ninjas in total, and the Takinin's high-end combat power only consisted of the Takinin leader, who was at the quasi-Kage level.

Similar to the Rain-nin, although the Takinin had much better quality than the ninjas of other small nations, they were still hard to compare with ninjas born in Great Ninja Villages.

Not to mention, they were Iwa-nin who were already powerful in combat and skilled in group warfare.

Under the leadership of Kitsuchi and Bunja, the ten thousand-plus Iwa-nin exerted a powerful force capable of moving mountains and filling seas, beating the Takinin into a steady retreat.

At this moment, they had actually already invaded the heartland of the Land of Waterfalls, and it looked like they were about to reach the Takinin Village.

According to Mizunuki Ryosuke's estimation, at most in three more days, the war would probably be over.

And the final piece of the "jigsaw puzzle" that Mizunuki Ryosuke needed was currently on the Takinin.

In other words, Mizunuki Ryosuke had to arrive a step ahead before Iwagakure completely breached the Takinin Village, only then could he get everything he wanted.

Time was tight and the task was heavy, so Mizunuki Ryosuke rushed toward the Land of Waterfalls regardless of everything.

The Land of Waterfalls, this small nation that was peaceful and harmonious in the past, had now fallen into a sea of war.

The front line of the battlefield was commanded by Bunja. Under his leadership, over a hundred Iwa-nin performed hand seals simultaneously, launching a super-giant cluster Earth Style jutsu. Nearly a hundred Takinin who were struggling bitterly were instantly buried by the earth splitting beneath their feet......

The Takinin's defensive line was torn open with a huge gap, and soon after, the Takinin were completely routed under the pursuit of the Iwa-nin.

Kitsuchi, who had already become the Fourth Tsuchikage, nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the war situation before him.

In the Takinin, he had already regained the confidence that the Iwa-nin had once lost.

Just as Mizunuki Ryosuke had predicted, with the current war situation of the Iwa-nin, they would probably be able to reach the Takinin Village in three more days. As long as they breached the Takinin Village, Kitsuchi reckoned that the Takinin would inevitably be unable to withstand the pressure and surrender directly.

It was just that for some reason, Kitsuchi, who was having smooth sailing at the moment, felt a faint sense of unease in his heart.

But soon, he still forcibly suppressed the unease in his heart.

In Kitsuchi's expectation, the only ones capable of coming to stir up trouble at this moment were Konoha, which also bordered the Land of Waterfalls.

But the war situation was far smoother than he had imagined. Under Iwagakure's lightning attack, the Takinin were about to be taken down in just a few days.

Therefore, even if Konoha wanted to intervene at this time, it was already too late.

After all, the mobilization of Konoha's troops required time. By the time Konoha had prepared their troops, Iwagakure would have long since breached the Takinin Village, looted it, and retreated directly.

By then, the wood would already be a boat, and even Konoha could only look on and sigh.

Kitsuchi was slightly stunned for a moment, but soon came back to his senses. And in the time he was stunned, the Takinin on the battlefield were either fleeing or captured, having been completely routed.

All of this also proved that on today's battlefield, the Iwa-nin had taken another city.

Afterward, this Fourth Tsuchikage, who was under tremendous pressure, calmed his heart and went to greet Bunja, who was returning victorious. ===== CHAPTER 933 =====
