Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 186 Arrival at the Land of Rivers

"The Land of Rivers?"

Mei Terumi looked at the pink-haired girl who came to her door and murmured softly about a place.

After she arrived in Konoha, Konoha didn't do much to her, but just slightly restricted her movements. Then she used these few days to gather information about the Water Country.

Her range of activities is not large, but it is definitely not small.

It was also because of this that he was able to intercept Uchiha Itachi before.

"That's right."

"We can leave in three days if you like."

Sakura looked at Mei Terumi in front of her and nodded.

However, Mei Terumi did not respond, but frowned in thought.

She was not a ninja from Konoha. Strictly speaking, she was just a rebel ninja from the Kirigakure, and she had no intention of joining Konoha.

He just wanted to use the power of Konoha to disintegrate the invisible force that controlled the Hidden Mist Village.

Mei Terumi prefers to think of herself as a partner of Konoha.

but……

It is obvious that the power of Mei Terumi alone cannot compare with the behemoth of Konoha.

She alone was not qualified to be a partner of Konoha.

Helping Konoha before was just to show his sincerity.

Sakura looked at the hesitant Mei Terumi in front of her, and after a moment of thought she understood what she was thinking.

After all, this is the former Fifth Mizukage, and he deeply loves the Hidden Mist Village.

She was obviously not happy about fighting for Konoha.

"Didn't you say that before?"

"The hand behind Kirigakure is from the Wind and Thunder Alliance. Now that the Cloud Village has been defeated, the Sand Village alone cannot stand up to the Fire and Earth Alliance."

"Without knowing that Kirigakure has not yet sent out its troops, the Sand Shinobi must hold firm and withstand the fierce attack of the Fire and Earth Alliance."

"Take down the Sand Ninja as quickly as possible. This will free up our hands to help you."

Mei Terumi's expression changed when she heard this. Although she felt a little uncomfortable that the pink-haired girl could see her concerns, she believed that what the other party said was indeed true.

"Besides, this battle doesn't necessarily require you."

No, Mei Terumi plays a very important role.

Kakuzu has already mastered the nano poisonous insects, while the two clan leaders of the Aburame clan have been staying at home for so long and haven't figured out anything.

Mei Terumi's Misty Technique, a technique that covers a large area and has strong destructive power, is particularly important.

"Afterwards, how should we deal with the hand behind Kirigakure?"

Mei Terumi looked at the pink-haired girl in front of her and spoke.

It became.

Sakura smiled inwardly, her expression unmoved.

"What's so difficult about this?"

"Why not just kill Kirigakure?"

"Kill all those who oppose you."

???

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?
Mei Terumi frowned slightly, obviously disagreeing with what Sakura said.

"Why, do you think the power behind Kirigakure will allow you to seize power easily?"

"Not to mention you're bringing Konoha's troops to attack our home."

Sakura's eyebrows were slightly cold, and she looked at Mei Terumi in front of her and continued:
"The right to speak for Kirigakure is in the hands of the Fourth Mizukage."

"Even if the other party is really controlled by someone, as long as they operate casually, they can portray you as a traitor."

"Even if we succeed in conquering the Hidden Mist Village and we help you become the Mizukage, you are already infamous in the eyes of the people of the Hidden Mist Village."

Sakura's words were like sharp swords piercing Terumi's heart, causing her eyes to widen slightly.

"The best option is to re-elect a Mizukage in Kirigakure, and you will serve as the liaison between Konoha and Kirigakure."

Hearing this, Mei Terumi looked at the pink-haired girl in front of her and said through gritted teeth:

"Isn't that a puppet?"

If it is a puppet, then what is the difference between it and the current Kirigakure!
The only difference is that the power behind it has changed from Fenglei Alliance to Konoha!

"Didn't you think of this before you came to us?"

"If you seek help from outside forces, you will inevitably be constrained by them. Do you really need me to teach you such a simple truth?!"

Sakura looked at Mei Terumi and spoke coldly.

"Or, do you think Konoha will help you deal with the forces behind Kirigakure for nothing just because of a piece of information?"

"too naive!"

!

Mei Terumi's eyes suddenly widened.

I... have no way out since the moment I left Kirigakure!
There is no one behind me!
Qing, Chojuro...

Master Yuanshi, what should I do...

"Think about it. Fight for Konoha, deal with the mastermind behind Kirigakure, and then become the liaison between Konoha and Kirigakure."

"Or..."

Sakura didn't finish her words, but her meaning was clear.

Mei Terumi remained silent, looking at the pink-haired girl in front of her whose eye color was almost the same as hers, and pursed her lips tightly.

Thirteen.

This guy is only thirteen years old.

At this moment, Mei Terumi felt the same sense of powerlessness as the Fourth Raikage did.

What magic does the land of Konoha have?
Geniuses are born one after another.

Every time when Konoha seemed to be in decline, a rare talent would appear out of nowhere to turn the tide and save the collapsing building.

After Hashirama Senju died, there was Tobirama Senju, after Tobirama Senju died, there was White Fang Konoha, after White Fang Konoha died, there were the Sannin, after the Sannin ran away, there was Minato Namikaze, after Minato Namikaze died, this pink-haired person in front of me was born...

"……it is good."

Difficult words came out of Mei Terumi's mouth.

Following the word "OK", Mei Terumi felt her whole body relax instantly. It was only a few words, but she felt more tired than fighting the Eight-Tails.

Sakura got the answer she wanted, and her face instantly turned from cloudy to bright. She smiled and patted Meimei's shoulder and said:

"In that case, thank you very much!"

"Meet at the gate of Konoha at noon three days later."

"Remember to prepare well~~~"

"Oh, there's another good news. Kakashi is here too~~~"

After saying that, Sakura ignored the distraught Mei Terumi and left Terumi's residence.

Looking at the pink figure leaving, Mei Terumi lowered her eyes.

Kakashi, that man...

Ah……

-

"How about it?"

At the gate of Mei Terumi's residence, a man with an ordinary face leaned against the door with his arms folded, looking at Sakura and spoke.

"Everything is going well, but this person's idea is a little too naive."

Sakura waved her hand to reassure the other party.

"That's fine too."

The man followed Sakura, not surprised that she had managed to convince the Kirigakure ninja.

"By the way, how's the Yangtun Ninjutsu going?"

The man walked beside Sakura, looking at the streets of Konoha and the people passing by.

"It went unexpectedly smoothly, as if..."

Sakura stopped and raised her hands as if trying to grab the sun in the sky.

The sunlight fell on Sakura's face through Sakura's fingers, and Sakura continued to speak.

"It's like, I was born for me..."

Senju Tobirama looked at the pink-haired girl beside him, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and spoke very naturally:
"It seems to be a perfect match for you."

The creation of a technique from zero to one is the most difficult. Sarutobi Hiruzen opened up 0.25 for Sakura, Sakura's own conditions opened up 0.5, and Senju Tobirama completed the last 0.25 for Sakura.

Completed the hardest one.

"Give this technique a name."

Sakura looked sideways at Tobirama Senju's words.

"It's just been created, and we haven't done much research on it yet. Isn't it too hasty?"

Senju Tobirama said: "It's only a matter of time."

"Then let's call it Yangtun Nintaijutsu."

“…How perfunctory.”

Qianshou Tobirama held his forehead helplessly.

Isn’t this too simple?
The technique that I helped to create is actually called such a simple and unpretentious name.

Look at the techniques I developed, Flying Thunder God Technique, Impure World Reincarnation, Multiplication Detonation Talisman...

These names sound impressive.

"Why bother with all the bells and whistles? Just make it useful."

"At worst, we can continue to develop derivative techniques like the Thunder Style Ninjutsu of Kumogakure, and then we can give them names."

Sakura waved her hands, obviously not impressed by what Tobirama Senju said.

"Well, it's up to you. After all, it's your technique."

Senju Tobirama looked at the pink-haired girl beside him and sighed.

He would rather give up the top-level blood limit of Wood Release and choose the Yang Release technique.

Obviously, there is no delay in studying both, after all, Sakura is only thirteen years old.

But this pink-haired girl insisted on choosing Yang escape and had no interest in even taking a look at Wood escape.

Rushing all the way in pursuit of power...

But precisely because of this, Senju Tobirama wanted to see how powerful this Yang Release that the pink-haired boy had stubbornly chosen was.

……

three days later

Konoha Gate
The logistics troops heading to the front line of River Country are gathering at this moment.

Sakura was sitting in the carriage fiddling with the brass knuckles in her hand to pass the time. Next to Sakura was sitting Karin, and opposite her were Kakashi and Mei Terumi.

This is the team that will kill Kakuzu, led by Sakura.

The original plan was to have Asuma along, but that guy couldn't come due to some emergency. Jiraiya and Might Guy's team escorted Naruto out of Konoha and headed to Turtle Island on the coast of the Land of Fire yesterday.

In this way, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Tsunade were in charge of Konoha.

There is no idle fighting force left in Konoha.

Originally, Sakura wanted to bring Sasuke along, after all, this is a Mangekyo.

However, the old man refused on the grounds that Sasuke was practicing Lightning Release Ninjutsu.

It was obvious that the old man wanted to entrust the stage of River Country to Sakura alone.

And Uchiha Hikaru...

forget it.

The other party will never help Konoha fight at the moment.

Moreover, based on the other party's experience, they should be very disgusted with war.

So, Sakura brought Karin along.

After all, Karin's perception ability is unique in the ninja world, and there is also Yamanaka Inoichi on the front line of River Country, who can complete the Uzumaki no Jutsu with Karin just like Ino.

With Karin, once Kakuzu shows up, he can be found immediately.

Karin sat next to Sakura, and even though they were in a hurry, she held a scroll in her hand and tried hard to learn the new technique.

Sakura couldn't help but move closer to see what Karin was studying.

"Sakura, do you want to see it?"

Noticing the pink-haired girl's movements, Karin pushed the scroll in her hand towards Sakura.

"No, I'm just curious about what Karin is looking at."

"This is the technique that the Third-sama rewarded me with after testing my chakra attributes yesterday based on my previous performance on the battlefield." Karin turned the scroll to the front page and said with a smile:
"But according to the Third Hokage, my chakra attribute is the same as Sakura's."

“It’s all yin and yang, water and soil.”

Turning to the front page, the name of the scroll was also revealed.

Water Style: Great Waterfall Technique (Second Generation Improved Version).

"The old man is so stingy. Why did he only give you this water escape technique?"

Sakura curled her lips as she looked at the water jutsu.

"No, this is what Tsunade-sama asked for me. This is what Sandaime-sama gave me."

After saying that, Karin took out another scroll from her ninja tool bag.

Water Style: Hard Vortex Water Blade.

Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet.

Senju Tobirama's unique S-level water jutsu, plus a water dragon bullet improved by Senju Tobirama.

Seeing this, Sakura nodded in satisfaction.

After all, Karin and Ino's Uzumaki Technique played an indispensable role in the battlefield of the Frost Country.

It's pretty good that the old man gave me an S-level technique and an A-level technique.

And judging from these three water jutsu, it is obvious that Tsunade and the old man want to make perfect use of Karin's strong chakra and turn her into a mobile turret.

Because Karin had been in the Kusagakure Village before, her basic ninja skills were not very good, and she was a little anxious to improve them now. She could only do it slowly in the future. So now she had to find another way and go the way of Li Dazhuanfei.

No matter what moves the opponent makes, he will directly use a large-scale water-style attack, and the main feature is a ninjutsu bombardment.

Kakashi held his cheek and looked at the water jutsu scroll in the hand of the red-haired girl opposite him, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

It's really a drought, a drought, and a flood.

If he were allowed to play like this, the Three-shot Waterfall Technique would drain him dry.

"Hehe, but I've just started learning it, and I'm just looking at the Great Waterfall Technique now."

"I'll definitely be able to help Sakura later."

Karin rubbed her nose and laughed.

"No, Karin can be of great help right now."

Sakura looked at the red-haired man in front of her with a gentle look in her eyes.

At first, I was thinking about completing the Yin Seal as soon as possible, and then I thought about Karin's existence.

Now it seems that no matter what she was thinking of doing at the beginning, snatching Karin from the Kusagakure Village would be a good thing for her.

As the logistics team was ready, the team heading to River Country officially set off.

-

River Country Sand Ninja Front

Sand Ninja Central Camp
"Is your information reliable?"

Chiyo rubbed her forehead and spoke with a headache.

Although Konoha has changed its generals at the last minute these days, and although Mito Kado En's tactical style is not as strange and tricky as Danzo's, he is no pushover either.

Although the offense, defense, detour, and border defense are all not outstanding.

But every aspect of Mitomon En's performance is above the acceptable level.

If you want to take down this guy, unless you have extremely good tactics and can crush Mitomon En, otherwise this old guy is like an indestructible cockroach.

"Reliable, don't you believe our intelligence?"

The tall man in a black robe with red clouds and a mask on his face was counting money while speaking nonchalantly.

Chiyo looked at the man counting the money and the corners of her mouth twitched.

This old guy is older than her, and he only likes money.

"Now what?"

"That witch from Konoha is even no match for the Fourth Raikage."

It has been some time since the war in the Frost Kingdom ended, and what happened during the war has been fully understood.

Especially the information about Sakura.

Now almost everyone in the ninja world has determined that this war broke out because of Sakura.

Especially the verbal spat between the Raikage and Jiraiya during the battle, the Raikage personally officially confirmed that all this was caused by Sakura.

At only thirteen years old, he was meticulous and powerful. He captured the Two-Tails and killed the Raikage.

This is no longer within the realm of a normal ninja.

It's totally beyond common sense and simply against the will of heaven.

Even the brilliant Minato Namikaze didn't talk so outrageous.

If someone had told Chiyo before Sakura that there was a man who could defeat the famous Raikage at the age of thirteen.

Chiyo just thought the other person was joking and teasing her.

But now this bizarre thing has really happened.

Chiyo couldn't laugh anymore.

Precisely because it was too outrageous, she was dubbed a witch by those who were interested.

"How to do?"

Kakuzu raised his pair of green eyes and looked at the old man in front of him.

"Fight or run, it's that simple."

After counting the stack of banknotes in his hand, Jiaodu sniffed the fresh scent of ink emanating from the banknotes in his hand and closed his eyes in ecstasy.

Money...it's really the most wonderful thing in the world.

Chiyo felt a little aggrieved as she looked at the guy in front of her.

One Konoha ninja is worth 100,000 ryo. How much money did Kakuzu make from the Sand ninjas during this period?

If it weren't for the strong support of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind this time, the Sand Village would not be able to afford the cost of this war.

"Then we can only ask this witch to die here."

Chiyo hesitated and spoke.

It is impossible to run away. Now it seems that the Sand Ninja family is resisting the Iwagakure Village and the Konoha family.

However, Konoha, which had fought a fierce battle with the Hidden Cloud Village, also needed to rest. It was impossible to withdraw the troops deployed to the battlefield in Frost Country so quickly and deploy them again in the battlefield in River Country.

Moreover, the Iwagakure Village has the Four-tailed Jinchuriki, the Five-tailed Jinchuriki, and Yellow Earth. Even with these three masters, they have not yet defeated Ebizo and Hoshigaki Kisame. It is obvious that they realized that if they let Konoha dominate alone, their lives will not be easy.

So it's extremely lazy.

There is almost no war pressure from the Land of Earth.

Moreover, news has come from the Hidden Mist Village that the other party will soon set off, cross the sea and land in the Land of Whirlpools, using the Land of Whirlpools as a springboard to launch actions against the Land of Fire.

It seems that the Fenglei Alliance has already lost half the battle.

In fact, the Wind and Thunder Alliance has already transformed into the Feng Shui Alliance, while the Fire and Earth Alliance is Konoha's countermeasure against the Wind Kingdom and the Water Kingdom.

Judging from the actions of the Earth Kingdom, there is already a second voice within their ranks.

If Konoha can keep winning, then the Land of Earth will naturally maintain superficial friendship and continue to go along with it.

But if Konoha is defeated, it is still unknown whether it will be the Fengtushui Alliance or the Fengshui Alliance.

Moreover, Chiyo looked at the photo of the pink girl on the table.

Only thirteen years old...

This child cannot be kept!

He is so amazing at the age of thirteen, what will he be like when he grows up?
Seeing that Chiyo had made her attitude clear, Kakuzu raised his eyes and looked at the old lady.

"The other party's action this time is obviously aimed at me. I have taken the pressure for you Sand Ninjas."

"Shouldn't you express your opinion?"

Chiyo looked at Kakuzu and fell silent.

"Kill Haruno Sakura, 150 million ryo."

"Deal! Elder Chiyo is indeed generous!"

Kakuzu smiled brightly upon hearing that.

Today, Pink-haired's worth has risen dramatically, reaching a level on par with the Five Kage and that group of older generation strong men.

Even more than that.

It's not just that the pink-haired man killed the Raikage, but also because he was young, too young.

Except for Konoha, no one wants to see this pink-haired boy grow up.

"I will notify Fengying to come here in person with help."

"When the time comes, you and I will join forces as the Kazekage Jinchuriki."

"Four of us will attack together and kill them in the chaos!"

Chiyo spoke harshly, and a kunai directly hit the pink-haired photo on the table.

"It's easy to talk about."

Kakuzu looked at Chiyo, his mouth corners almost reaching his ears under the mask.

He not only agreed with Chiyo's plan, but also knew that the pink-haired girl was only accompanied by a little girl from the Uzumaki clan, Kakashi, and Mei Terumi.

The veteran strongman Jiraiya was not included in this operation.

The Kirigakure is already preparing to take action. If they want to resist the Kirigakure, there is only one Hokage and one Tsunade in Konoha.

At that time, Tsunade would definitely lead her army to resist Kirigakure.

In other words, in this war, there were no other outstanding strong men except Pink Hair.

At that time, as long as the Kazekage can hold back Mei Terumi, Kakashi can find a team to intercept her.

Then the pink-haired girls will be isolated and helpless.

After killing the pink-haired girl, you will get a lot of money!

It's impossible that the mighty Kazekage can't even support a little-known person like Mei Terumi?
-

River Country Konoha Front

"Thanks for your hard work."

Mizuto Menen came personally to welcome this logistics team.

Today, the little girl who followed the third generation has grown into a character that even he dare not underestimate.

"Elder Yan."

Sakura looked at the old man in front of her and smiled.

Compared to Utane Koharu and Shimura Danzo, the old man in front of him was very sensible.

The prejudice against him at the beginning has long disappeared without a trace with the passage of time.

It can be said that if the other party is determined to compete for the position of Hokage, he must be a strong opponent of the old man.

"I've grown a lot taller."

Looking at the pink-haired man in front of him, Mizuto Menyan smiled, then signaled his men to receive the supplies, and then took Sakura and his party to the central military tent.

"Nothing unexpected happened this time, right?"

On the way, Mizuto Menyan asked as usual.

"My whereabouts have been discovered."

Sakura's words made Mizuto Menyan stunned for a moment. He frowned slightly and said no more. He just brought a few people to the central military tent quickly and opened the barrier to prevent information leakage.

"what happened?"

As soon as he entered the tent, Mizuto Menyan couldn't wait to speak.

"The logistics troops' actions were not hidden, but were almost made public."

"This kind of movement will definitely not be hidden from the spies of the Sand Village."

"And the other party didn't do anything."

Just at this moment, Mizuto Menyan's expression changed and he looked towards the door of the tent.

The tent was pushed open, and a man with a pineapple head, a man with long beige hair, and a burly red-haired man walked in.

Nara Shikaku, Haiyi in the mountains, Ding Zuo on the autumn road.

He is the current patriarch of the Ino, Shika, and Chou clans, and is also the strongest Ino, Shika, and Chou clan in Konoha.

"So this also proves that your information has been leaked, Sakura."

"Sending people to attack the logistics unit is just a way to die."

Nara Shikaku looked at Sakura kindly, then nodded to Kakashi.

Obviously an old acquaintance.

"It is also a psychological method to verify whether one's own intelligence has been leaked from the side."

Nara Shikaku talked freely, and it was obvious that he had discovered Sakura's intention at the first moment.
