Cloud hidden.

In Rai Ying's office.

The fourth-generation Raikage was shirtless and performed physical exercises at his office as usual. He lifted a heavy barbell with one hand that required more than a dozen people to lift, but he could easily lift it by himself, and it lasted for a long time. A little sweat dripped down his face, far from his limit.

Not only the surface of the body, but the fourth Raikage himself felt a very strong aura brewing in his body, protecting the meridians and internal organs and other organs within his body. This is the secret technique of Sugi no Village came into play.

Although I don't know if this way of improving the body's internal resistance to blows can completely ignore the soft fists of the Hyuga clan, but the next time I encounter the soft fists of the Hyuga clan, it will not be so easy to hurt his body.

The word "power" has always been engraved in the genes of Yunyin Village's ninjas. As Raikage, he naturally has to pursue power all the time and play an exemplary role.

The effect is very good. Under his leadership, the overall strength of Yunyin Village is in a high-speed upward trend.

Not only the number of ninjas in the official establishment has begun to increase sharply, but the quality of ninjas is also much better than in the past.

Even in peaceful times, Yunyin Village did not relax its demands on itself. Rather, it is precisely because of the peaceful times when there is not much war that one should strictly demand oneself.

"Huh..."

When he put down the barbell in his hand and was about to start exercising with his other hand, the door to the office opened.

Yunyin Kamunin Abuyi, who was his secretary, walked in, probably because she had just finished the meeting, her expression was a little tired.

After all, his boss is a muscular man who doesn't like to be in charge. He is more obsessed with exercising and improving himself than trivial matters such as meetings... This is almost a common problem of Raikage in all dynasties.

The previous Raikage also had a similar temperament.

Because of this, as the secretary, she was able to perform the functions of Raikage and control the situation within the village.

Although the ninja forces in Yunyin Village are not as complex as those of Konoha, there are certain problems, but the problems are not acute and their strength is relatively weak. Otherwise, there may be a complicated factional dispute like Konoha.

In the visible history, the martial arts faction of Yunyin Village has always occupied the mainstream.

For the conservative cloud hidden ninjas, only at the end of a war, or in times of peace, will their opinions be accepted.

Azabuyi, who is Raikage's secretary, is naturally a loyal member of the martial arts faction.

"Is the meeting over?"

Seeing Azabuyi coming in, the fourth Raikage asked breathlessly.

"Yes, Raikage-sama."

Azabuyi nodded.

"How is the result?"

"Unsurprisingly, with the martial arts group as the main body of Yunyin, most of the Shangnin advocates uniting with the country of ghosts and taking the opportunity to roll up the storm of the Fourth Ninja World War, while the conservative group is inclined to political demands. , as long as the Fire Nation and Konoha are softened, there is no need to escalate the situation."

After all, the third Ninja World War has not been a few years, and the power of Yunyin Village has finally grown from a sluggish state.

But rashly started the war, not to mention that a considerable number of ninjas at the bottom have already experienced war weariness. If they really fought, it would be equivalent to emptying Yun Yin's strength that he finally recovered.

Not being afraid of Konoha and fighting again with Konoha are two different concepts.

"Temporarily stabilize the voice of the martial arts faction, this time is not suitable to expand the war."

Although the Fourth Raikage advocates plundering all mysteries and wealth from the outside world, it is not without a big picture.

Completely defeating the Kingdom of Fire and Konoha will not benefit the Kingdom of Thunder and Yunyin.

In other words, ten years ago, Yun Yin might have taken such an approach.

But now, in the western part of the mainland, there is a powerful country that is comparable to the military power of the five major countries - the country of ghosts.

The international situation has reached a direction that no one knows about.

The land of the country is conservative, and it is not easy to express its position. Although the country of wind is one of the five major countries, it has no ability to restrain the pace of the country of ghosts.

Moreover, according to the current international situation, the potential threat of the country of ghosts is obviously greater than that of the country of fire.

The country of fire is already old, and Konoha, who represents the military power of a country, is governed by a group of old men with half their feet in the coffin board.

In contrast, the land of ghosts is telling Tengfei to be young and energetic. The will to fight is very strong, and its claim is similar to that of the Land of Thunder.

Because of this, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. After eliminating the surrounding threats, the Kingdom of Ghosts will replace the Kingdom of Fire and become the most powerful enemy of the Kingdom of Thunder.

Therefore, if the country of fire and Konoha are completely defeated at this time, it will not be conducive to the balance of the country of ghosts in the future.

Considering the present and looking to the future, war is an extreme way to divert attention and problems under compelled necessity.

Any war, no matter how big or small, should be handled with caution.

Today, for the country of Lei, which is not short of money and military power, the pursuit of stronger international influence transcends the pursuit of worldly desires such as money.

If Lei Zhiguo and Yunyin can obtain their political demands through negotiation, then there is no need to resort to war, which is a means of hurting the enemy and hurting one thousand and eight hundred.

"I understand, Raikage-sama. Besides, there is a letter from the land of ghosts, everything is ready."

Mabuyi said.

"The Kingdom of Fire and Konoha should still be making an internal agreement at the moment. After waiting for the specific action time of the Kingdom of Ghosts, it will not be too late to go to the Kingdom of Rain to discuss matters."

At the last crucial step, the Fourth Raikage no longer felt impatient.

The kingdom of thunder and the kingdom of fire have been fighting for decades, and will eventually usher in a new node.

The only thing that made Raikage unhappy for the fourth generation was that it was not the land of thunder itself that created this node, but the land of ghosts that appeared like a dark horse.

"Then, when the time comes, who will be sent to follow?"

"The lineup that participated in the Five Shadows Conference last time, Xi and Darui as the guards on the bright side... Well, let's add Tutai, he is more experienced in dealing with things."

The Fourth Raikage thought about it and felt that this meeting was slightly different from the last Five Shadows Conference.

Although the Kingdom of Thunder did not directly intervene in the confrontation between the Kingdom of Oni and the Kingdom of Fire, it also participated sideways. Moreover, in the next negotiation, there will be his own political demands, so there must be a lot of talk, and this is precisely the field that he is least good at.

Mabuyi wants to be in the village and manages the village on his behalf, so he can't act rashly.

The rest of the jounin in the village, although outstanding in strength, have low political ability.

Tutai, as the blood follower limit ninja in the village, not only has outstanding strength, but also helped his father three generations of Raikage in the past to coordinate the management of the village, and has excellent governance experience.

It was this person who helped him secure the position of the fourth-generation Raikage, and had a higher reputation among the people and ninjas.

"Senior Tutai? He's indeed a good candidate. Then, the guard of the dark side, dispatch a team of Anbu to follow."

Anbu of a squad, plus four squad leaders, a total of 18 people.

With Xi and Darui, and Tutai, the experienced Yunyin Shangin, it is enough to ensure the safety on the road.

"That's it, is there anything else to say?"

"There is indeed one more important thing, about Yukito."

"Yumu? What happened to her?"

Yumu Ren, whose full name is Erwei Yumu Ren, is the current Erwei Ren Zhuli in Yunyin Village.

The previous two-tailed man Zhuli was the father of the wooden man, because when he was practicing the perfect man Zhuli, the power of the tailed beast went out of control, resulting in the broken seal and unfortunate sacrifice.

Then, Erwei made a transfer. And the new two-tailed person Zhuli is the daughter of the previous two-tailed person Zhuli, the two Yumu people.

Although he is young, he is already a Jnin in the village. He can initially control the power of the second tail in his body. He is much better than his father in terms of Renzhuli's talent.

"Her perfect human Zhuli practice has completed the first stage, the next second and third stages, and the final stage, and Kirabi, who is already a perfect human Zhuli, needs to accompany him to the 'secret place'."

"Has the first stage been completed so quickly?"

The Fourth Raikage was also surprised.

The power of the tailed beast is not so easy to control.

With a tailed beast chakra, he is well aware of how terrible the tailed beast chakra is.

That is a huge amount of chakra that ordinary ninjas can't control in their entire lives.

Moreover, the chakra of the tailed beast has a very strong sense of independence. When practicing the Perfect Human Pillar Force, it even made it more difficult to control the tailed beast.

So far, the only known perfect human Zhuli in the ninja world is his righteous brother, Yatai Renzhu Riki Rabbi, and the fourth generation of Mizukage Gotachibana Yagura of Kiriyin Village, who are the perfect three-tailed human Zhuli.

In addition, in the visible history of the ninja world, there is no third person Zhuli who has completed such a training.

Even the former Uchiha Madara just used a wheel-shaped eye to control the tailed beast, and in essence, it was not a perfect guide to the power of the tailed beast.

The perfect human pillar, the character of the human pillar, the charm of oneself, the tolerance will that can accommodate the hatred of the tailed beast, and the power to burst out the power of the tailed beast in the consciousness space... Several conditions must be agreed in order to obtain the approval of the tailed beast . Otherwise, there will be various embarrassing situations in which the tailed beast chakra is used forcibly, but the spiritual consciousness is not unified, which will seriously hurt the self, or the spiritual consciousness has reached an agreement, but once the tailed beast chakra is used, it will run out of control.

If Yun Yin can give birth to the second perfect person Zhuli, then it will be of great significance to Yun Yin.

"Yes, in terms of Hitotsuki's talent, Yukito undoubtedly surpassed the previous generation's Nitai Hitotsuki."

Azabuyi nodded affirmatively.

"If that's the case, then, let Bi go to teach Yuki to do the next renzhuli practice. Now that the international situation is becoming more and more complicated, we must use all means to strengthen our own armed forces in order to protect this land. peace."

Fourth Raikage waved his hand and pushed everything to Abuyi to do.

As Raikage, he only needs to attend on necessary occasions and improve his fighting ability.

Compared to the leader, Raikage of Yunyin Village is more like a fierce general leading the team forward!

Azabuyi bowed slightly and left the office.

February 7.

The snow and ice in the village have not yet melted, and the air is still filled with a biting chill.

Knowing that the daimyo was coming to visit, Konoha just held a welcoming ceremony hastily. As the village Hokage's Hijaki, he directly introduced the daimyo of the land of fire into the conference room in the Hokage building to start an important meeting and negotiation.

For this, the Fire Nation's daimyo is not dissatisfied either. The situation is urgent, and the welcome ceremony or something can be saved if possible. A person who has achieved his position no longer needs some modesty to show his noble status.

There were only five people gathered in the conference room, including the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Fire and the third Hokage Sarutobi Hijen.

The other three were two advisors, Koharu and Mito Kazuma, and the last one was Nara Shikuhisa, the squad leader of Shangnin.

Although Kakashi, the Minister of Anbu, is considered the core class of Konoha today, but the Anbu department is quite special. It belongs directly to Hokage, and belongs to the power that cannot be exposed on the bright side. Many information needs to be kept secret.

Therefore, the Minister of Anbu and the Squad Leader of Shangnin are on an equal footing in terms of power, and there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors, but in many cases, they cannot directly participate in high-level meetings.

One belongs to the armed forces directly under Hokage.

One is Konoha's role model for all Joinin, and the weight and meaning of the representation are completely different.

Moreover, Konoha is now full of hidden dangers and Anbu has a heavy task. Compared with the meeting, what Kakashi, the Minister of Anbu, has to do is to maintain the internal order of the village, so as to prevent some rumors and make Konoha fall into the crisis of public opinion.

As for the news from the outside world, it is natural to block as much as can be blocked. For the time being, we cannot let too many people know about the changes in the international situation.

Regulating this part is Kakashi's current task.

"The staff has already arrived, so I won't say more, let's start the meeting directly."

In addition to the root leader Shimura Danzo, the fire country daimyo, and Konoha's high-level decision-making have all gathered.

The first person to speak was the third generation of Hokage Hirazan. His face was heavy, and the bags under his eyes became larger. It can be seen that he has not slept well these days.

After finally spending a year, he was able to rest comfortably for a while, but the news from the front made him unbelievable. He immediately realized the danger that the country of fire was about to face, so he had to hold a high-level meeting immediately.

At the same time, a day ago, a total of 1,000 Konoha ninjas had been advancing at full speed overnight, arriving at the junction of the land of fire and the land of rain, and meeting with 1,500 Konoha ninjas in the land of rain to prevent the land of rain. Change.

Not only that, two thousand Konoha ninjas were also deployed in the southern part of the country of fire to block the border.

The Kingdom of Oni is not only stationed in the Kingdom of Rain, but also has the ability to fight at sea.

The steel-built aircraft carrier warship can break into the southern coastal area of the Fire Nation at any time, causing panic among the border citizens.

Therefore, regardless of whether the Kingdom of Ghosts has the intention of attacking the Kingdom of Fire, Hizan knows that such an arrangement must be made, and there is no chance of any luck.

Chiba Shiraishi, he couldn't see through it at all, and couldn't understand what the other party was thinking.

So, to prepare for the worst all-out war is the performance of Risho's best efforts.

In the end, another thousand Konoha ninjas were spent to go to the northeast of the country of fire, where they joined the border Konoha troops there to prevent Yunyin ninjas in the land of soup from raiding the country of fire from the northeast border.

The entire Konoha is now in a state of full-scale preparations, ready to fight at any time!

"Mr. Shikahisa, what do you think will be the next move between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Thunder? War or stop the attack?"

The fire country daimyo looked at Shikaku with inquiring eyes.

Shikaku's mood was also very heavy.

Originally, I was planning to take my son Shikamaru on a trip that said we could leave, but in this situation, it is estimated that traveling is impossible.

"Whether it is Zhan Shihe, the country of ghosts and the country of thunder, they will never give up the opportunity to attack the country of fire and Konoha. We are sure of this. Before taking action, we must find out that the country of ghosts and The two countries, the Kingdom of Thunder, are looking for something to be able to prescribe the right medicine."

Lu Jiu's words aroused the contemplation of everyone present.

What do the kingdom of ghosts and the kingdom of thunder seek?

This is indeed something worth thinking about.

Mito Menyan coughed and said slowly: "Old man, tell me a word or two, the old man does not know what the kingdom of ghosts seeks, but it is obvious what the kingdom of thunder wants from us. After ten years of continuous fighting, the Kingdom of Thunder and Yunyin just want to expand their international influence. This should also be the reason why the Kingdom of Thunder helps the Kingdom of Ghosts."

The Land of Thunder is the old rival of the Land of Fire for decades.

Since the First Ninja World War, the Kingdom of Thunder has been provoking the status of the Kingdom of Fire.

The same is true for Yunyin, hoping to defeat Konoha one day and become the leader of Shinobi Village.

However, the three Ninja World Wars, nominally, belonged to Konoha's victory.

In the first Ninja World War, Yun Yin's second generation Meg Raikage led a thousand elite Yun Ninjas to invade the country of fire with a blitzkrieg. As a result, he was blocked by the Konoha army led by the second generation Megumi Senju Tobirama, and was defeated.

After several months of fighting,

The situation of defeat is becoming more and more obvious. Under such circumstances, the second generation Meg Raikage humiliated and signed an armistice agreement.

Although there were some accidents on the day of the meeting, Yun Yin couldn't hide the reason for his failure.

In the second ninja war, the battle between Konoha and Yuyin, although no one defeated Yuyin's leader Sanjiaoyu Hanzo, but under the general trend, Yuyin's leader Hanzo was unable to return to the sky, and in his sigh he admitted that it was Konoha's victory.

After moving to Shayin, Konoha formulated a squad-style blitzkrieg strategy of White Fang's squad, to contain Shayin's main force from the side battlefield, so that Shayin's main force did not dare to act rashly, forcing Shayin's side to sign an armistice agreement.

In the third Ninja World War, Konoha appeared a talented person like Minato Namifeng, and Iwakushi and Yunyin suffered consecutive defeats under his command, resulting in the cut off of the supply line and a big defeat.

With the outbreak of the three Ninja World Wars, the power of Konoha and the Kingdom of Fire is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and their status is unshakable.

In the eyes of the Kingdom of Thunder and Yun Yin, such a land of fire and Konoha are very annoying.

The international influence of the Kingdom of Thunder and Yunyin ranks second in the ninja world. If they want to continue to expand, the Kingdom of Fire and Konoha must be a major obstacle in their Tyranny plan.

Mito Gate Yan's words attracted the approval of several people.

They thought so too.

However, if the balance is lost, it is impossible to speculate whether the Kingdom of Thunder will maintain its original intention.

And there's a major unexpected role here.

His decision was also crucial.

"The Kingdom of Thunder's pursuit is obvious. What does the Kingdom of Ghosts need? Do you want to gain the status of the sixth largest country from this dispute?"

The Great Name of the Land of Fire murmured to himself.

His words made Hokage Hibachi nod and shake his head again.

"Yes or no, Chiba Shiraishi can't see through it at all. To seize the status of the sixth largest country may be just a transit plan for the country of ghosts, not the ultimate goal. There should be something deeper in it. We just didn't see it."

Lu Jiu also nodded and said, "I agree with Hokage-sama. The country of ghosts is probably not asking for the status of the sixth power. According to my understanding, Chiba Shiraishi does not pay attention to these so-called false names. He What I want is a more tangible 'interest'."

This is the hardest part.

But no matter how much Shikaku guessed, he couldn't predict what the country of ghosts wanted to seek.

He intervened in the civil war in the land of rain, interfered in the land of waves, and even maliciously provoked public anger, creating a violent movement that subverted the aristocratic system of the land of waves... What is the causal connection between this?

Is it just to disgust Fire Nation and Konoha?

Although there are some grievances between the two, these grievances are not worth mentioning at the national level.

If Chiba Shiraishi planned this just for revenge, to be honest, Shikaku wasn't worried. What he is afraid of is that Chiba Shiraishi is planning a deeper conspiracy against the land of fire and Konoha under the guise of 'revenge'.

The sharp blade hidden in the dark is the most dangerous.

Because no one knows, from what angle and at what time this sharp blade will suddenly stab out in the dark.

There was silence in the conference room.

There is too little information about the country of ghosts.

Although Konoha had dispatched a lot of spies to sneak in after the Wind Country War, but because he had no identity documents and no official identity certificates from other countries, he was 'invited' to drink tea.

Every town there has a guard force, and the entire country can be said to be under the strict monitoring of the central government. There is no way to go to crowded places, and it is meaningless to hide in the deep mountains and forests, where no useful information can be collected.

If you go in the official name, you will definitely be arranged in a designated place and be 'protected'.

Although he is reluctant to admit it, the national security system of the country of ghosts is very complete and efficient. If the espionage cannot solve the identity problem, it will be difficult to move in the country of ghosts, the hotel will not let you stay, and they will be reported to the local security department.

On the contrary, the intelligence system on their side was infiltrated by the land of ghosts.

Although I have carefully investigated and handled it several times before, and indeed caught a lot of people with problems, they are all small fish and shrimps. The intelligence network set up by the Kingdom of Ghosts in Konoha has always existed.

When the few people were at a loss, there was a knock on the door of the conference room.

"Come in."

After the sound of the sun chopping sound, the door of the conference room was pushed open.

An Anbu ninja appeared there.

"Tianzang, what's the matter?"

Hizan recognized the identity of this Anbu ninja.

He is the only wooden ninja in Konoha. He holds the position of sub-commander in Anbu, coordinating Kakashi to manage the Anbu department together. It is the subordinate of Shangnin that Rizhan relies on.

"Lord Hokage, the envoy of the kingdom of ghosts asks to see you."

Tian Zang's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and he said these words in a flat tone.

"Emissary of the kingdom of ghosts?"

"Yes, there are also military personnel from the Kingdom of Ghosts."

Hizan and the others looked at each other in dismay, wondering what the ghost country was trying to do by sending its diplomatic envoys here.

Threat? Or declare war directly on the Fire Nation?

"I'll go see them."

Ri Zhan sighed and walked out of the conference room. Under the leadership of Tianzang, he went to meet the envoy of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

No matter what the result is, as Hokage, he needs to face it in person.

Inside the cave sheltered from the cold, there was a bonfire burning for warmth.

Under the reflection of the flames, the two figures were projected on the wall and swayed gently with the flames.

Wearing a black coat embroidered with red clouds, black hair tied in a ponytail behind his head, his scarlet kaleidoscope writing wheel eyes opened, and he looked at the person who came.

For a long time, in the silent silence, the boy's cold voice sounded: "Mara, you promised me that you would not shoot at Konoha. You can not fulfill the agreement, then I will not help you deal with Uchiha Liuli, I will also expose Akatsuki's secret."

It's more a threat than a negotiation.

Standing opposite him was a one-eyed man wearing a swirling mask.

The one eye exposed outside is also a kaleidoscope writing wheel eye with mysterious and unpredictable power.

His voice was low and terrifying, and he seemed to have a bit of murderous aura.

"Itachi, this is not a violation of the agreement. Yuyin is only dealing with the ninja troops of the Daming Palace in the Land of Fire, and has not attacked Konoha. You also know the current situation of the organization, and it is impossible to take the next step. One step, it must be the conflict between the kingdom of ghosts and Konoha."

Madara's explanation made Itachi frown frequently, but he couldn't find a reason to refute him.

"Itachi, don't you think that our organization has the power to sway the will of the country of ghosts? If so, I wouldn't train your kaleidoscope to deal with Uchiha Ruri."

Madara's words seemed to be mocking others, but also his own words, which made Itachi slowly loosen his clenched fists.

Indeed, seeing Konoha in such an unfavorable crisis situation, his thinking was lacking.

The will of the country of ghosts will not act according to Akatsuki's orders.

Rather, in this dispute, Xiao and Yuyin Village, and even the Kingdom of Rain, were all swords in the hands of the Kingdom of Ghosts, successfully slashing at the Kingdom of Fire and endangering Konoha Village.

In the face of such a powerful country of ghosts, his agreement with the Akatsuki organization was nothing at all.

In the land of ghosts, neither he nor the organization can control it.

Even if the country of ghosts attacks Konoha at this time, it has nothing to do with the Akatsuki organization.

It was a battle between the kingdom of ghosts and Konoha, and the Akatsuki organization would only shrink its strength and watch the tiger fight.

This is a struggle and checks and balances between multiple forces, but if you take one step further, you will usher in a war.

Although Itachi had the intention to stop him, considering his embarrassing situation among the Uchiha clan, going to the land of ghosts to prevent the outbreak of the Fourth Ninja World War would probably end with no bones left.

"Whether the Fourth Ninja World War is fought or not, it doesn't matter what the Rain Country and Xiao Organization have said, the attitude of the Ghost Country and the Thunder Country is the key. They are the culprits who most hope that the Fire Country and Konoha will go down. If you want to target, you should go to the high-level officials of these two countries. It is meaningless for you to say these words to me. I cannot represent the will of these two countries. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

As for the high-level officials of the two countries, whether they will listen to the opinion of a genocide, betrayal and forbearance, that is another matter.

Anyway, the Kingdom of Rain and the Akatsuki organization have already achieved their goals in this battle, so there is no need to make extra troubles.

"...I'm sorry."

Itachi bowed his head and apologized.

"I won't be angry about this kind of trivial matter. After all, you are a Uchiha clan who has opened his eyes, and there is still a place to use you in the future. In addition, you can rest assured. According to my guess, the country of ghosts will not open the first chapter at will. The four ninja wars, even if they have the intention, will not start at such a time. Although Akatsuki is not well prepared, the country of ghosts may not be fully prepared."

Madara's tone softened, persuading Itachi to calm down.

Starting the Fourth Ninja World War at such a time would not benefit either side.

The country of ghosts has far-reaching plans. If you really want to launch the fourth ninja war, there will definitely be bigger moves.

And now that there are no such big moves, it means that the country of ghosts is still in the preparation stage.

"I know, I will do my part."

Itachi's face returned to calm, and he walked out of the cold cave.

Madara stared at Itachi's receding back, his eyes shining faintly.

"hope so."
