Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 277 There is no opponent ahead of us

"Urgent report from the Land of Earth: Akatsuki has captured two tailed beasts."

In the Land of Snow, Hinata Yuki and Senju Tobirama received information and began to discuss it.

"Akatsuki can no longer bear it."

Hinata Yuuki frowned, with a hint of worry in his tone, "We need to make more preparations, Mr. Tobirama, when will Master Yu return?"

Senju Tobirama just looked at the information, pondering in silence, and did not immediately answer Yushu's question.

Can he suppress Uchiha Madara's opponent?
This was really unexpected. He thought that Ohnoki was going to fight to the death with the Dust Release clone, but he didn't expect that he had such a trump card.

It is conceivable that the Fire Kingdom and the Lightning Kingdom will not be too bad. After all, the national strength of these two countries is stronger than that of the Earth Kingdom.

Thinking of the chakra cannon used by the Land of Lightning during monitoring, Senju Tobirama suddenly chuckled. In front of Hinata Yuki's stunned gaze, he spoke:

"It's really amazing. Once the balance based on destruction is established, no one dares to move. Instead, it will continue to grow stronger. It's really ironic when you think about it."

Hinata Yuuki was stunned when he heard this, and felt a little emotional when he thought about the changes in the past two years.

What was the ninja world like in the past?
Assassination, poisoning, theft, diplomacy, politics, all kinds of means emerge in an endless stream. No matter whether it is an open and aboveboard strategy or a sinister and cunning scheme, as long as it is beneficial to the village, it will continue to be performed.

In order to weaken the enemy and strengthen themselves, all forces will do everything they can, and the moral boundaries will become blurred under the shadow of war.

And now?

Compared to two years ago, the number of ninjas killed on the battlefield has dropped significantly, and all major countries have begun to shrink their battle lines, focusing on consolidating their own spheres of influence and launching a silent arms race, with only some small-scale conflicts occurring.

The reason is the external threats and pressure. When countries dare not and cannot eliminate the threat, they can only try their best to restrain and develop, hoping to surpass them through development.

In the past two years, whenever the Snow Country produced any new technology, other countries would become nervous, fearing that they would fall behind, and they would pay more and more attention to their own domestic development.

This balance does not come from the desire for peace, but is a compromise reached among countries through deterrence and fear.

Foreign enemies are indeed an important factor in promoting the development of national strength.

"That's human nature." Hinata Yuuki smiled helplessly, "But sooner or later the balance will be broken, just like what the Akatsuki organization is doing now."

Senju Tobirama nodded without comment.

The shadow of war still hangs over the entire ninja world, like an indelible shadow that constantly threatens the fragile peace.

On the surface, the countries maintain a fragile balance with them, but secretly they strengthen their armaments, improve their combat effectiveness, hoard resources, and secretly develop more powerful ninjutsu and weapons. Intelligence warfare, psychological warfare, diplomatic games and other means emerge in an endless stream, and all forces are trying to weaken their opponents and strengthen themselves in various ways.

In this war without the smoke of gunpowder, although the ninjas temporarily avoided the life-and-death struggle on the battlefield, the inner tension and pressure did not decrease at all.

Fear cannot bring true peace, it only postpones the war. After all, it is difficult for the collision of two forces to achieve a stable balance. When one side has problems, the other side must respond.

Akatsuki's destruction of the Land of Earth has exposed a flaw in the United Nations. Neither they nor the United Nations will sit idly by and watch.

Now that the balance has been broken, the ninja world will naturally change.

"Hinata Yu received the message and will be back today. Don't worry. Call all the top leaders to the Daimyo Mansion first."

Senju Tobirama answered Hinata Yuuki's previous question and walked out of the room first.

Outside the house, the cold wind was howling, the sky was still gloomy, and heavy snow was falling.

Snowflakes were falling like goose feathers, covering the sky and the ground. The entire snow country seemed to be wrapped in a thick white blanket, and it was silent. The strong wind blew up the snow on the ground, whistling through the streets and houses, making a low whimpering sound, like some kind of ominous sign.

But in such an environment, Senju Tobirama was content. No matter how much you change, it will never be worse than before. Let me see where you will go.

……

With one step, Hinata Yu returned from the moon to the Snow Kingdom.

This was something he couldn't do before. In the previous stages, there were many restrictions on space-based eye techniques, and they could only be transferred within the field of vision of the Byakugan. But now, he can cross the long distance between the moon and the ninja world.

He stood on the snowy plain, with thick snow under his feet and the familiar cold air and whistling wind all around him. The sky of the Snow Country was gloomy and heavy, as if it would press down at any time and cover up all traces.

Hinata Yu identified the direction, took a step forward, and headed towards the center of the Snow Country.

Every time he took a step, he would cross thousands of meters, and in just a few seconds, he had walked across most of the Snow Country.

Along the way, he saw familiar scenes: villages covered with snow, silent villagers, patrolling soldiers, everything seemed so peaceful and tranquil.

But such scenes will soon disappear.

Hinata Yu took another step and appeared in the palace of the Daimyo of the Snow Country.

At this moment, everyone has gathered here.

Hozuki Gengetsu, Senju Tobirama, Wu, Hyuga Miyuki, Hyuga Yuki and others stood on both sides and looked at Hinata Yu who walked in.

Their eyes were fixed on Hinata Yu, watching him walk towards the throne step by step.

There was a tense and solemn atmosphere in the air, as if the weight of the entire country was on his shoulders.

Hinata Yu slowly walked to the throne, stopped, turned around and slowly scanned everyone present with his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and sat on the first seat.

"Recently, various countries have been exploring the moon, and Akatsuki has followed suit and attacked the Land of Earth to seize the tailed beasts. They can no longer wait, and the outbreak of war is imminent."

When everyone heard this, their faces turned stern.

"Senju Tobirama, No." Hinata Yu looked at the two of them and said calmly, "You are responsible for formulating battle plans, analyzing the movements of various countries, and formulating the most effective strategy."

"Yes!"

Senju Tobirama and Wu looked at each other, and the latter's eyes were very complicated.

They understood the meaning of this sentence. The Land Kingdom had suffered a heavy blow and it was time to withdraw.

"Yushu, you are responsible for domestic defense and ensure the safety of the people of the Snow Country."

"Yes!"

"Hero, the information summary will be handed over to you by Senju Tobirama..."

"Yes!"

……

After slowly explaining the arrangements, Hinata Yu smiled and said, amid the admiration, excitement, and complicated looks of the people below:
"The rest of us should gather our strength and wait for the war to come. The patience of all countries has reached its limit, and the war may break out at any time, even earlier than we expected."

"But the outcome was already determined."

"We have no opponent ahead of us!"
