Chapter 934: , Indecisive
"Stop arguing, all of you!!!"
Finally, the Takinin leader in the main seat could no longer bear it, directly slapping the table and standing up, scolding the surroundings angrily.
Seeing the leader angry, this group of Takinin elders who were spraying each other across the air finally settled down.
The atmosphere in the meeting returned to silence once again. Everyone looked at each other, focusing their gazes on the Takinin leader, quietly waiting for his resolution.
The situation was already very clear; half of the Takinin's high-level officials advocated war, and half advocated surrender. As for how to choose, it ultimately depended on what opinion the Takinin leader had.
In this atmosphere that had suddenly become somewhat eerily quiet, the Takinin leader's face was uncertain, and he seemed to be struggling extremely hard internally.
Seeing this, the group of surrender faction elders below flashed a hint of joy on their faces one after another. On the other side, the pro-war elders all sank their faces.
Not refusing on the spot, but showing a hesitant look, was enough to explain the Takinin leader's wavering attitude at this moment.
Which meant that the Takinin's surrender was not impossible.
After a long time, under the slightly worried eyes of the pro-war elders, the Takinin leader finally spoke.
"How many troops do we still have in our hands now?"
Facing the Takinin leader's inquiry, a Takinin elder responded immediately.
"There are probably about four thousand ninjas left who are capable of fighting."
Hearing this answer, the Takinin leader let out a long sigh, as if he had finally made up his mind.
"Then gather all combat power at Waterfall Lake and fight a battle with the Iwa-nin!"
Hearing this, the group of surrender faction Takinin elders were all like mourners, while the pro-war faction elders on the other side all let out a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, the Takinin leader's words seemed to be only half said. He hesitated for a moment and then spoke again.
"If we can't win this battle"
"Then let's discuss the matter of surrender."
As soon as these words were spoken, the joy in the hearts of the pro-war faction elders vanished, and the hearts of the surrender faction elders ignited a glimmer of hope again.
In the meeting, only two elders frowned at the same time. One of them was the elder who had reported the war situation to the Takinin leader earlier; he was also a core figure in the current Takinin pro-war camp, and then he prepared to advise again.
"Leader, I'm afraid this..."
But before he could finish his words, he was directly and simply rejected by the Takinin leader, who had finally made up his mind.
"Enough! I have made my decision!"
"Just do it like this!"
The Takinin leader waved his hand, directly interrupting the elder's advice.
Subsequently, the elder's old face instantly turned red, and he opened his mouth wanting to say something, but was unable to say it.
"Leader, this is indeed..."
At this time, on the other side of the meeting, the voice of another Takinin elder also came again.
The pro-war elder looked sideways, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but soon it was a hint of helpless understanding.
Because the one who spoke was exactly the pro-peace elder who had taken the initiative to advise the Takinin leader earlier.
But similarly, his words were not finished either, and he was directly stopped by a sharp look from the Takinin leader, and then there was no follow-up.
Afterward, the gazes of these two elders who held opposing opinions actually gathered together, and they saw the helplessness in each other's eyes respectively.
How can one have both fish and bear's paw?
If you want to fight, fight to the death; if you want to surrender, surrender decisively, maybe you can still plot a good result.
To want to fight and to want to surrender, how can both be taken care of at the same time?
The final result can only be the loss of both.
But helplessly, at this moment, the Takinin leader had already made up his mind, and they were completely powerless to change it.
The reason was also very direct, because within the current Takinin, only the Takinin leader was a powerhouse who had reached the "Kage" level. Although his strength was only the lowest quasi-Kage, with this strength as a foundation, the leader's status could not be shaken at all.
In the Ninja World, ultimately, it was still the fists that had the final say.
And judging from the performance of this Takinin leader, he himself was an indecisive person. The reason why he made such a decision that looked somewhat absurd was nothing more than being unable to make up his mind and deliberately delaying.
"Sigh"
Ultimately, everything could only be turned into two sighs of helplessness.
The next day, under the continuous advance throughout the night, the Iwa-nin's troops advanced nearly a hundred kilometers forward again. The sporadic resistance encountered during the period was simply not worth mentioning under the Iwa-nin's military force.
The Land of Waterfalls was originally a small nation, and the entire territory added up to only a few hundred kilometers.
With the foot speed of a ninja, moving a hundred kilometers in one night was simply normal.
Finally, the Iwa-nin army, led by the Fourth Tsuchikage Kitsuchi, arrived at the lake named "Waterfall Lake."
As long as they broke through this "Waterfall Lake," the distance to the Takinin Village was less than a hundred kilometers, which meant that by then the Takinin Village would be directly exposed to the Iwa-nin's military edge.
At this moment, Kitsuchi, as the Fourth Tsuchikage, was sharing joys and sorrows with the Iwa-nin beside him, burying his head and rushing forward together.
When he saw the vast outline of Waterfall Lake in the distance, a glimmer of light erupted in his eyes.
Looking from afar, this lake named Waterfall Lake had flourishing hydrology and was a huge lake covering a very wide area.
Kitsuchi was not stupid. Combining the fact that he had encountered almost no resistance last night and had advanced to here, he concluded that a great battle would definitely break out in this huge lake next.
"Pass down the order, as long as we take the lake in front, the Takinin Village is close at hand!"
"In the evening, I will reward everyone here, set up camp and rest!"
Kitsuchi ordered the Iwa-nin beside him.
Following the spread of the order, the group of Iwa-nin burst into bursts of cheers one after another.
After days of bitter fighting, although they had won consecutive victories and morale was high, these Iwa-nin were also urgently wanting to get rest. Hearing such an order at this moment, they were naturally more urgent to take Waterfall Lake.
"Bunja, it's up to you."
After saying this, Kitsuchi turned around and said to Bunja beside him. ===== CHAPTER 936 =====
