Chapter 232: Why Is My Career Panel in a 2D Anime Style? Chapter 105

Just as she quietly raised her guard, the ninja with Uchiha and Senju blood continued: "But."

"Konoha does not need to surrender the Nine-Tails jinchūriki."

???

Chōmei's face turned green.

This newly appointed Mizukage stole a furtive glance at Tsunade, her heart flooded with a thousand llamas stampeding through it.

The Akatsuki is clearly tied to your Konoha, isn't it!?

This so-called ninja alliance is just a play staged by Konoha and the Akatsuki to wipe everyone out at once, isn't it!?

At this moment, Tsunade stood frozen in place; she never imagined the killer across from her would spare Konoha.

'So is it because Grandpa and some Uchiha…'

The Hokage began wondering if her unreliable grandfather had cheated on her grandmother.

While Tsunade was lost in wild thoughts, Li Ang had already dismissed Susanoo.

The reason he said that was simple: he didn't want to touch Naruto Uzumaki—not because he was the original protagonist, but because the Six Paths Sage had yet to show his face.

As for the Nine-Tails

Don't forget half of it still resides in Bofengshui.

Beyond that, it's about fracturing the ninja alliance—after all, the Akatsuki has shown deep, tangled ties to Konoha; no matter how Tsunade explains it, no one will believe Konoha has no connection to the Akatsuki.

Dirt in the pants—whether it's shit or not, it still stinks.

As Tsunade was deep in thought, a voice suddenly sounded beside her.

"The Kirigakure accepts your demands."

Tsunade instinctively turned to the Mizukage beside her and saw a look of profound relief on her face.

For Kirigakure, it was simple: their two tailed beasts were already uncontrollable anyway; even if they agreed to the terms, they'd suffer little loss.

As for mediating disputes

Kirigakure lies overseas and rarely gets involved in conflicts.

Besides, with the power of these two killers in the Akatsuki, even if they had tailed beasts, they wouldn't dare resist.

After this line of thought, Chōmei chose to kneel.

Sensing Tsunade watching her, she forced a fake smile: "I'll need your Hokage's continued support in the future."

"?"

Tsunade now had no way to defend herself, but she also had no intention of trying.

Given the current situation, accepting their demands benefits Konoha more than it harms it.

Kumogakure is gone, Sunagakure is crippled, Kirigakure is nowhere to be found—only Iwagakure might still have some resistance left.

If Amegakure stands with Konoha

Thinking of this, Tsunade finally chose to submit.

As for what the Tsuchikage Ōnoki will think when he wakes up—that remains unknown.

On the other side, Jiraiya stared at his cold-eyed disciple nearby and murmured: "So…"

"So this was your goal all along."

To reclaim the tailed beasts distributed by the First Hokage and become the sword of Damocles hanging over all ninja villages.

But how did things come to this?

At this moment, Li Ang approached Changmen: "It's settled."

Hearing the voice, Changmen glanced at the young man beside him.

To be honest, he had expected to unleash another Shinra Tensei today to intimidate the ninja alliance; he never imagined the war would end so quickly.

No, it wasn't even a war—it was one-sided slaughter; the ninja alliance offered almost no meaningful resistance.

Of course, that was also because their hearts were never united.

Meanwhile, the Amegakure ninja behind them stared in awe at the several figures in black cloaks with red clouds in the distance.

In the minds of these Amegakure ninja, even if they won today, they would surely suffer Devastating casualties; most had already prepared for death.

But before they could even enter battle, the war ended in an utterly bizarre fashion.

Looking at the young man standing beside Pain, the Amegakure ninja felt as if they were dreaming.

Unaware of what his subordinates were thinking, Changmen spoke: "When the Tsuchikage wakes up, tell him to send the Five-Tails jinchūriki as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, either I or Ryū will come Qinzishang Sect to retrieve him."

Upon hearing this, the remnants of the Iwagakure forces erupted into chaos, and soon a burly middle-aged man stepped forward.

He was Ōnoki's son, Hōdō.

Faced with Changmen's order, he felt nothing but bitter resentment.

But after seeing his father's condition and recalling Kumogakure's fate, he finally replied in a dry voice: "Understood. I'll tell him when Father wakes up."

"Don't try to delay—I'm giving you three days."

Li Ang cut off Iwagakure's escape route.

Hōdō opened his mouth, then bowed his head and muttered: ". Yes."

Undoubtedly, the events just witnessed had shattered this Iwagakure jōnin's confidence.

With Kirigakure and Konoha both making peace with Amegakure, Iwagakure's stubborn resistance would lead to no good end—it would likely become the next Kumogakure.

"Eight-Tails…" Changmen was about to demand that Kumogakure hand over the Eight-Tails jinchūriki, but remembered what had happened last time he went to capture it: "Never mind. I'll go retrieve him myself in two days."

As for the Nine-Tails, Li Ang will handle it—this had been agreed upon before the war even began.

Watching the two killers redefine the future Ninja World in mere words, the battlefield fell into deathly silence; no one dared speak up to contradict them.

Moments later, as the Amegakure ninja force slowly withdrew, the ninja of the alliance felt a wave of utter exhaustion.

He survived.

Heaven knew how agonizing it had been for them just now; thankfully their own Kage hadn't been stubborn.

Jiraiya leapt over to Tsunade's side in a single bound: "…Is this appropriate?"

Hearing this, Tsunade let out a long sigh, easing the weariness in her heart: "This is already the best possible outcome now, after all—they're not planning to make a move on Naruto."

Though neither of them said it aloud, they both understood in their hearts.

The Ninja World—the sky had changed.

Elsewhere.

Li Ang looked at the information popping up on his class panel and couldn't help but knit his brow slightly.

【Major Event: The False Peace has come to an end.】

【Under your goading, the Land of Rain has successfully replaced the Land of Lightning as one of the Five Great Nations, and the Akatsuki organization has become the arbiter of the world.】

【Under the oppression of absolute violence, the world has briefly welcomed peace.】

【You may begin a new journey (29 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes).】

Li Ang was deported.

'Again like this… Is this really my talent?'

Clearly, when he used his other talent 【Console Player】, he never felt the slightest restriction, yet the talent 【Traveler】 was completely beyond his control.

Fortunately, he had already made all the preparations he needed; from here on, he only had to gather all the Tailed Beasts before he could attempt to unleash the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

'Hope nothing goes wrong…'

Thinking of this, a light flickered in Li Ang's gaze.

……

Very quickly, the news that Hidden Rain Village had suppressed the ninja alliance by sending out only two people spread across the entire world, and the vast majority of people, upon hearing this news, had the very first reaction that they had misheard.

After all, this news was simply too fantastical.

Two people versus the ninja alliance of the Five Great Nations, and winning easily without paying any price—do you even hear what you're saying?

Of course, there were also some elders who had survived since the founding of the ninja villages and knew this was no fantasy; once, two people had accomplished such a feat.

Their names were Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.

These elders never imagined they would live to see such powerful figures again.

But Li Ang had no time to spare for the aftermath of the great battle, because he was currently receiving his brother.

In the tidy bedroom, Black Zetsu looked at the composed young man before him and asked in a very grave tone:

"What exactly are you planning to do!?"
