Chapter 779 Tracking

The first ten days of October is about to pass. The international situation is superficially calm, but secretly it is still extremely tense. All countries seem to be tensing their own nerves, and they will go berserk if they are slightly touched.

In such a weird balance, the destruction of the black market is more like dropping a huge bomb on a calm lake, setting off a violent storm.

Although the black market still has large and small strongholds, and has not suffered a devastating blow, the headquarters that concentrated the resources, information, and even reward platform tasks of these strongholds were destroyed, which means that the entire black market has fallen into a leaderless state. All information, resources, and even bounties have fallen into a slow state of stagnation, unable to contact each other smoothly.

Such a situation will undoubtedly cause chaos in the entire black market, and even cause the black market to no longer be able to effectively integrate the power of these bounty hunters in a short period of time, and gather these stragglers to become a powerful boost for the alliance of five major countries.

"This is really..."

When the senior leaders of the Alliance Army got the first-hand information about the destruction of the black market, they stared at the silent and charred land in the photo with wide eyes. The originally towering mountains were like melted butter under the high temperature.

I was shocked by the scene of destruction in the photo. Even if it was just a remnant scene, it can be seen to what extent the headquarters of the black market was bombarded at the beginning of the destruction.

Don't talk about humans and animals, even the earth has disappeared, as if it has been wiped out of existence from the world, not even the dross is left.

Onoki, who had just returned to the headquarters of the Alliance Army, happened to negotiate a deal with the black market not long ago, but as soon as he left, the partner of the transaction disappeared, leaving his brain buzzing and silent for a while.

"I thought that the Kingdom of Ghosts would only launch operations against bounty hunters, but I didn't expect that they would directly draw their salaries from the bottom of the pot... From the very beginning, we miscalculated their real goals."

Annihilating several top bounty hunter teams could not satisfy the Kingdom of Ghosts. On the contrary, all the previous actions were just warm-up exercises before the official competition, and they were just done by the way. Their real goal was the entire black market.

I want to directly paralyze the operation system of the black market platform, so that I can no longer provide too much assistance to the alliance army.

After Luo Sha finished speaking, he also frowned and fell silent, anyone could see the seriousness hidden between his brows.

The early progress of the alliance army was quite smooth, but there were twists and turns in the alliance with the black market. Until now, the black market was almost tossed to the point of death by the kingdom of ghosts... and this happened in just a week.

"We teamed up with the bounty hunters, and the opponent played cards to block the communication between the alliance and the black market. This is a natural result. After all, our opponent is a thinking person, not a motionless stone. Moreover, the black market is not within the scope of protection of the 'agreement'. If we attack now, the kingdom of ghosts will probably be very happy, and then attack us."

Tsunade saw it very clearly.

The 'agreement' only guarantees the pre-war preparations of the Alliance Army, the Kingdom of Ghosts, and Akatsuki. Before the official declaration of war, corresponding military operations cannot be launched.

However, the black market is not part of the agreement.

Belonging to the fourth party other than the three parties, even if they have something to do with the Union Army, they do not enjoy the protection of the pre-war agreement.

In this case, if Oni Nation or Akatsuki wants to launch an attack, they must make a fuss about the black market.

Tsunade suspects that even if Oni Nation does not take action, Akatsuki will probably be a hindrance, and will not allow the alliance army to annex the power of the black market.

"Hokage, you don't need to say this, we are very clear. Although it is a bit regrettable, it is really not the time to attack."

Fourth Raikage folded his arms and said calmly.

Among the five people present, the four shadows except Mizukage are all here, and the fifth person is the Iron Country Admiral Mifune.

Everyone looked worried. As opponents, they must have been touched when they saw such a scene.

San Chuanchuan was silent, watching the communication of several shadows, and would only speak out at critical moments.

"However, in this way, will those guys in the country sit and wait to die? You know, there are a lot of interests involved in the black market. Without this part of the income, it will be difficult not to think about going to war now."

Luo Sha smiled wryly.

Among the shares in the black market, the high-level leaders of the five major countries occupy a large proportion. Although they have nothing to do with the Ninja Village, they still rely on the five major countries to establish their establishment. The interests of these high-level leaders are damaged, and even the Ninja Village may also be affected.

After all, I lost such a large profit, I would be furious and want to take revenge immediately.

Just before, there were no less than 20 orders from high-level leaders of the five major countries, hoping that the alliance army would attack immediately and attack the kingdom of ghosts.

Not to mention whether their behavior is in line with the strategic deployment of the Alliance Army, their irrational behavior alone cannot be called wise and powerful. Obviously, after being greatly stimulated, their rationality began to evaporate.

After all, no one who does this kind of thing can guarantee calmness.

"Let them bear it first. It is really stupid to start a war with the ghost country at this time. All the civilians in the war zone have not been removed. If we start the war now, how many people will we have to die? The situation is already out of control. At least we must ensure that we have the power to resume production after the war."

And these all rely on a huge population base.

Without these, even if the Union Army wins the battle, the dominance will become precarious due to heavy casualties.

In this kind of matter, the Fourth Raikage will not compromise with these high-level officials.

"Kazekage, I'm asking you to deal with this matter first. Anyway, there is not much time left, just a few days."

Tsunade is on the side of Fourth Raikage.

Alliance Five Shadows, the five members each perform their duties, and among them, Luo Sha, the Kazekage, is in charge of liaising with the high-level groups headed by the daimyos of the five major powers.

"Do your best. Fortunately, the daimyos were calm after learning about this incident, and there was no chaos. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to deal with."

Luo Sha nodded helplessly.

If the daimyos also require the alliance army to attack quickly, that would be the real disaster.

"However, isn't Mizukage ready yet?"

At this time, Luo Sha mentioned Terumi Mei.

"The transfer work over there is a bit difficult. After all, Wuyin lives in a remote corner and lives overseas. If you want to transfer troops, you must first cross a huge sea area. In addition to combatants, there are also supplies to be transported. There are not enough ships. There is no way to transfer. Even with the help of our family, it will not be able to handle it in a while."

Tsunade said.

Now, most of the personnel on the side of the Alliance Army have been concentrated, but the transfer of personnel from Wuyin Village is a bit difficult.

After all, Kirigakure has contributed more than 20,000 ninjas this time, but now only 10,000 people have been gathered, and the remaining 10,000 people, plus various war materials, need a lot of ships.

At least sailing, you can't get up fast.

"Since that's the case, let's meet Mizukage-dono when the next day arrives. Based on the estimated time, Mizukage-dono should have set off from Kirigakure."

Mifune made a sound at this moment, and Mao then recommended himself.

Because it is transported by sea, when it arrives at the Alliance Army, it must enter at the northern port of the Iron Kingdom, which is the closest to the Alliance Army headquarters.

Because of the needs of the war, the three major ports in the northern part of the Iron Country were heavily guarded, and all irrelevant personnel were transferred away to form a branch stronghold of the Alliance Army to guard against the enemy's sea power.

In addition, the uninhabited island in the northern waters of the Iron Country was also requisitioned to build a branch, and now there are tens of thousands of Alliance Army ninjas scattered.

With such a force stationed, no matter how fierce the attack is, it can last for a long time.

Not to mention, Yunyin is still in the sea area where there are many warships and two chakra cannons that can attack local forces at a super long distance.

Fourth Raikage and others heard Mifune's words and had no objection.

"You can't just focus on the Demon Country. Although their actions are direct, they are still under our surveillance. Akatsuki, who has not been monitored yet, doesn't know what they are doing. This needs attention."

Fourth Raikage said this.

The threat of the ghost country is blatant, and people feel the great pressure to face him directly.

But Akatsuki is different, they are good at hiding, and as the inducement of the Fifth Ninja World War, the power of this organization cannot be underestimated.

If you underestimate them, you will suffer a lot.

Mist hidden village, port.

Hundreds of ships were assembled on the sea, some of them belonged to warships, with flags flying above, and crowds of people. More than 10,000 Kirigakure ninjas were ready to go on the expedition. Only one order from Mizukage was needed, and they were going to the frontline battlefield, giving all their strength and even their precious lives for victory.

Although many people are nervous, most ninjas are still calm.

Especially those 'old men' with rich experience. Although they reject war, they also know that this is a war that has to be fought, so their attitude is very calm, which relieves the nervousness of many people.

On the platform at the port, Terumi Mei looked at Kirigakure Ninja who was standing firm on the ship, and his heart, which was originally quite urgent, could not help but calm down.

The elites of Wuyin Village gathered here gave her a lot of confidence.

"Let's go up too, it's time to go."

Said the confidants of Jonin next to Terumi Mei.

In addition to Qing, there are several members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. As the most elite force in Kirigakure Village, they will lead the Kirigakure ninjas together with Mizukage.

at this time-

"Ming."

An old voice stopped Terumi Mei.

She turned around in astonishment.

The three generations of Mizukage who were over 70 years old, and the veteran Yuanshi Wuyin who was over 90 years old, the two came hand in hand, followed by several guards Anbu.

"Third generation, Elder Yuanshi? Why are you two here?"

Terumi Mei made a gesture to make the rest of the people stop for a while, and stepped forward to greet the two of them.

She was very surprised by the arrival of these two retirees.

"I will also participate in this war."

Third Mizukage spoke amazingly, which surprised Terumi Mei even more.

"Three generations, this..."

To be honest, Terumi Mei doesn't want Mizukage Mizukage to go to the battlefield, it's not because he's afraid that the opponent will seize power, but because of the opponent's age, it's really...

So, she looked at Master Yuan, hoping that the other party could stop him.

"Don't look at it, the old man has already discussed it with Master Yuan, otherwise he wouldn't have come to look for you."

Three generations of Mizukage's eyes lost their cloudiness and became glistening, not like an old man who is dying.

"Three generations." Terumi Mei sighed helplessly, and said, "This war is no small matter. Even I can't guarantee that I can survive to the end."

In other words, the three generations of Mizukage, who are no longer in their heyday, still retain some of the strength of the past, which makes Terumi Mei very worried about the situation of the opponent after entering the battlefield.

There is no eye for swords and guns, and Wukage must be prepared to sacrifice at any time.

"Did you dislike the old man's strength? Then, while there is still time, you can verify whether the old man's strength has regressed."

Sandai Mizukage gave such a strong answer.

"Don't dare."

Terumi Meditation didn't want to refuse directly.

"Ming, you also said that this war is no small matter, otherwise the old man would not ask for it here. Besides, even the old man Onogi can go to the battlefield at this age. As a ninja of his generation, how can the old man be willing to die of old age in the hospital bed? As far as I know, Konoha's Akimichi Takakaze, as well as those old friends of Yun Yin and Sand Yin, also went to the battlefield."

Hearing what Sandai Mizukage said, Terumi Mei was slightly silent.

Indeed, this time the alliance of the five major powers, it can be said, is doing everything it can to win.

Even those old people who have come from the Warring States Period are almost always willing to volunteer.

As the remnants of the times, their brilliance and grandeur have long been stuck in the past.

But the only thing they don't want is that one day they will die of old age on the hospital bed, lingering on their last breath, hanging by drugs, and tortured to death in pain.

Sprinkling blood on this battlefield is their true destination.

"I see, then, welcome to join, Third Generation."

Terumi Mei saw Mizukage's resolute attitude, so he let out a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand, and shook hands with Sandaime tightly, expressing his agreement to the other party's request for military enlistment.

"Don't worry, as one of the former five shadows, the old man is not so easy to die."

Sandai Mizukage also saw Terumi Mei's worry, and responded confidently.

"How many times is this? Is it still a tie?"

In front of the Waterfall of Reality, looking at Naruto standing motionless on the boulder in the center of the pool with his eyes closed, Samui, who had just had lunch, came over and asked.

Because Tianzang is guarding here, she doesn't have to keep an eye on Naruto's training work all the time.

"It's the third time, and it's still a tie. After all, they have exactly the same ability and strength, the tactics are also the same, and even the speed of growth is the same. No matter how they fight, it will be a tie."

Tianzang spread his hands helplessly, answering Samyi's question.

"Sure enough, I still haven't found the key."

Samui nodded, the expected answer.

"The headquarters is about to be ready, and the population migration work is coming to an end. The official war is only a few days away, and we don't have much time left."

A sense of urgency rose in Tianzang's heart.

"The Five Kages control the situation over there, so we don't need to worry about it. Even if the enemy is strong, the strength of the alliance army is not weak either."

Samui is quite open-minded, and doesn't have too many pessimistic thoughts.

And her optimism is also based on Yunyin's powerful military strength.

As a result, they have a strong sense of trust in the power of the alliance army.

"Maybe."

Tianzang made a vague sentence.

"Let's focus on Naruto, his power is indispensable for the alliance. You have been observing here for so long, have you noticed anything?"

Sam turned his head and asked.

He knew that Tianzang was here not only to monitor Naruto, but also to observe Naruto's training situation and give guidance.

"That, no, I can't see anything at all. If it's the rest of the situation, I can still give some advice, but the training of Jinjuriki is my blind spot. After all, in this regard, the opinions given by Yunyin and Kirigashi, who gave birth to perfect Jinjuriki, are more pertinent."

Tianzang sighed helplessly.

Just when Samuy was about to say something, a weird rap tone suddenly sounded:

"Three idiots, you still can't achieve anything after so long, I finally can't stand the eight tails~~"

"Master Kirabi?"

Samui turned his head to look at Kirabi who suddenly appeared and jumped from the sky.

"Indeed, the three of us couldn't think of any effective solution. I don't know Mr. Yao, can you give me a little guidance? After all, I am your loyal fan."

Tianzang knew that he should not be too disobedient to Qi Rabi's intentions, if possible, it is not impossible to speak soft words.

"oh?"

Hearing that Tianzang is his fan, Kirabi carefully looked at Tianzang's whole body, and Tianzang's face became a little unnatural.

After all, it was really difficult for him to say such things against his will.

Because he, like Naruto, felt that Kirabi's self-created RAP was really a bit hard to say.

"Hey~~ Even the people in other villages are fascinated by my charm?"

Kirabi seemed to believe it.

"No, you'll know it's a lie when you hear it."

Samui dismantled the situation without hesitation.

But both Kirabi and Tianzang chose to ignore it.

"Since you are my fan, then, Master Ben Yao, give this kid a little hint."

Kirabi's words brought surprise to Tianzang's face.

With Kirabi's help, the situation should go much smoother.

"However, since you are a fan, you have to come to my solo concert later."

Kirabi made another request.

Then, he looked at Samyi again and asked, "Samyi, do you want to come and listen later?"

"Please spare my life, Lord Kirabi."

Samui chose to retreat without hesitation, keeping a safe distance from Kirabi, as if watching some scourge.

She knew about Kirabi's destructive power at the concert, just like his perfect Renzhuli name, he had the same level of destructive power.

"I thought that Turtle Island would move to the waters of the Land of Iron, but it turned out to be in the direction of the Land of Water? It really wasted a lot of our time."

Between the Land of Thunder and the Land of Water, on an uninhabited deserted island, the Baijue who were in charge of scouting the location of Turtle Island met the Kisame who was leading them, and reported.

Kisame is also holding the map at this time, scanning the general direction of Turtle Island transfer.

There is no trace of Turtle Island in the sea area of the Land of Thunder. This point, Bai Jue and his team have used so many days of exploration, plus the sharks he sent out, are already known.

Therefore, all that remains is to lock in the direction of the movement of Turtle Island, so as to specify the exact location of Turtle Island.

According to normal logic, Turtle Island should be moved to the sea area of the country of iron, because it is the sea area closest to the headquarters of the alliance army, and it is heavily guarded by the alliance army.

Even if there is an accident in Turtle Island, we have the ability to rescue in time.

As a result, the Alliance Army is now doing the opposite. Not only did it not move Turtle Island to the waters of the Land of Iron, which is the nearest to the headquarters of the Alliance Army, but it moved towards the northern waters of the Land of Water.

You know, the northern waters of the country of water are not close to the headquarters of the alliance army.

If there is an emergency, it means that the Union Army cannot quickly support.

"This is where they are smart. However, the farther away from the headquarters of the alliance army, it does not mean that Turtle Island is easy to take. Compared with the alliance army's network of heaven and earth, it may be very difficult for ordinary troops to attack. What's more, the two human pillars are not simple existences. No matter which one, they can completely wipe out our search troops."

Not to mention, on Turtle Island, there are still a large number of elites from the Alliance Army.

In addition to the two Jinchurikis, there must be ninjas with difficult strengths, otherwise the Alliance Army would not be able to safely transfer Jinchurikis to such a distant place.

Kisame guessed so.

Bai Jue nodded, Guixie's guess was not unreasonable.

Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki are also special existences among many Jinchurikis.

The last time they fought with Eight Tails, Kisame was on the verge of death, and their manpower was obviously seriously insufficient.

Fortunately, they are just searching for troops, and they don't need to fight the alliance army on Turtle Island. They just need to lock the position, and leave the rest to the leader Nagato.

"I know the sea area of the Kingdom of Water very well. This is our current advantage. In this area, there are not many places to hide, and I happen to know all of them."

Kisame pointed to the northern waters of the Land of Water on the map, marking the sea route that Turtle Island might move.

"If my predictions are correct, these three routes are the most likely to be taken by Turtle Island. The rest of the routes are not suitable for large ships, let alone something as large as Turtle Island."

"So that's the case. As expected of Kisame, now we can finally find them. But how do we allocate the manpower?"

The general position has been detected, but the specific position still needs to be locked.

"Bai Jue, you are in charge of these two routes." Guixie pointed to two of them, and then pointed to the last one: "I will be in charge of this route. Before they go far, start action immediately, before they leave this sea area."

The disadvantage of Turtle Island is that it is too large, but the advantage is that they can be moved at any time.

means that you can transfer the sea area anytime and anywhere, and go to a safe place to hide.

Therefore, the final destination of Turtle Island is definitely not the northern waters of the country of water. This sea area may also be a part of the route, not the final location.

"good."

Bai absolutely had no objection, and led the rest of the individuals to dive, respectively swimming towards the two routes pointed by the ghost shark.
