"It is speculated that all of their comrades who infiltrated the area have been eliminated."
"Now, the gates to the main city of the Land of Hot Springs have been completely sealed off by the ninjas of the Hidden Demon Village. They are only allowed to leave, not enter. Even the sea area is guarded by a former Kirigakure Ninja Swordsman."
"We still don't know their next move, or whether the First Generation Demon Shadow who went out has returned."
However, just as the predecessor finished speaking, several more Cloud Village ninjas came to report on the tasks assigned to them.
"The barrier is functioning normally."
"No unusual activity has been reported in the empty area."
"There is no sign that the ninjas from Hoshigakure have left the Land of Bears."
"Everything is normal in the Land of Rice Fields; there is no sign of ninjas gathering."
"No large-scale ninja incursions into the Land of Hot Springs have occurred recently."
"........."
The execution and organizational capabilities of large ninja villages are extremely terrifying and efficient.
Once fully operational, even messages from all corners of the world will be transmitted back in the shortest possible time.
However, these successive pieces of good news for the Land of Lightning failed to calm the Fourth Raikage's mind.
Because this time, the persecution he carried out was neither against some insignificant small ninja village, nor against his old rival, Konoha, who would have been patient in the face of the bigger picture!
Instead, it is the Uchiha clan.
It was the Demon Village built by that mad clan!!
matter,
How did things turn out like this?
He had only wanted to launch a surprise attack and kidnap a hostage who would make Uchiha Ara hesitate to act, so why did things turn out like this?
Ai didn't hear the reports from his subordinates very clearly.
Because as long as that guy doesn't show up or make a statement, then everything else is irrelevant.
Amidst his chaotic thoughts, the Fourth Raikage looked down at his rough, broad hands.
This seemingly indestructible hand easily pierced the chest of a potential enemy, but it also tore away the facade of peace between the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Demon Village.
His pupils narrowed slightly, and his hands trembled slightly.
This subtle dynamic made Ai feel even worse.
what happened?
Why do my hands tremble?
Breaking the fear of the Hidden Demon Village and mobilizing all surrounding forces to besiege the Land of Hot Springs—isn't this the result I wanted to see?
This time, the plan was simply executed a little more aggressively.
Why do my hands tremble?
Is it the uncertainty about the future, or something about that guy...?
"Lord Raikage,"
"That guy has disappeared! Shimura Danzo has disappeared!!"
Before the Fourth Raikage could recover from this inexplicable emotion as he looked down at his own palm, a voice filled with anxiety abruptly entered his ears.
found it,
This is it!
Ai suddenly looked up at the ANBU ninja who had come to report, a belated look of fear flashing in his eyes.
Yes,
He did indeed maintain a radical will to resist the Hidden Demon Village by force.
but,
What truly enabled him to expand this will and put it into action step by step was the one-eyed old fox, Shimura Danzo, who had escaped from Konoha!
From hiring those who secured the village of Suoqian to launching a surprise attack on the village of Yaoyin.
Now, they were told that the old fox who dragged Kumogakure into this mess had calmly left!
Are you kidding me?!
"get away?"
"how is this possible?"
"There are two secret police squads taking turns monitoring his residence. How could that guy possibly escape so easily?"
"And even if he manages to evade the ANBU's sights, that old man has absolutely no chance of getting through the village's barrier!"
"He must still be hiding somewhere in the village, waiting for an opportunity to escape."
"Find him quickly!!"
Upon receiving the news, a high-ranking member of the Cloud Village immediately slammed his fist on the table and glared fiercely at the ANBU ninja who had come to report.
This is their own stronghold. If an old man can escape so easily, then the entire Hidden Cloud Village will have no face to continue to stand.
Moreover, for an outsider to escape from their village while under surveillance, they would need to obtain two conditions:
First, it allowed them to evade the 24-hour surveillance of two highly trained ANBU ninja squads.
Secondly, they need to know the password to pass through the barrier!
Both of these conditions are indispensable!
This was also the main reason why he slammed his fist on the table and angrily urged them on.
However, the ANBU ninjas who were ordered to do so did not take any action.
This situation caused him to panic suddenly and freeze in his tracks, because, as he had said, it was a very troublesome thing for outsiders to escape from Kumogakure.
But in fact, you only need to do one thing:
That means controlling one of the elite members of the secret service and extracting information about the village's defenses and the secret codes surrounding the barrier from their heads!
The thought of this possibility sent a jolt through the hearts of the Cloud Hidden leaders.
Impossible, impossible!!
How could that frail old man, who needs a cane to walk and is blind in one eye, possibly accomplish such a thing?
However, just as he was frantically denying it in his mind, the ANBU ninja who came to report continued:
"Shimura Danzo seems to have mastered some kind of secret technique. He had been behaving himself a few days ago, but today, when we were rotating shifts, we discovered that the entire squad on duty had fallen into an illusion."
"Shimura Danzo, who was under surveillance, was not in the room either; only this letter was left in the room."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Cloud Hidden Anbu member took out a white envelope from his pocket and walked towards the Raikage, who was sitting in the main seat with a face so solemn that it was impossible to discern his emotions.
"and many more."
However, before he could get close, a sword with its sheath still intact suddenly appeared in front of the ninja who had come to report.
He was Darui, a high-ranking member of the Cloud Village with dark skin and off-white hair.
He, who is usually seen as a lazy person, had an unusually dangerous look in his eyes at this moment.
"Give me the letter first."
He said in a deep voice.
The ANBU ninja who came to deliver the message naturally wouldn't cause any more problems.
However, this letter may not be the case.
After all, it was something left behind by that old fox!
"No problem,"
"Now that Danzo has escaped, this letter is probably just to show off to me."
"He wouldn't want a force capable of fighting against the Hidden Demon Village to disappear so soon."
Ai said in a low voice.
They clearly understood a principle: although they and that old fox could not become true friends, they were a community on the issue of demonic concealment.
That guy is eager to use his power to fight against Uchiha Ara, so how could he possibly frame him at this moment?
"Yes,"
Upon hearing this, Darui took a step back, and withdrew the scabbard from his hand.
The ANBU ninja who had been blocked outside was then able to step forward and hand over the letter in his hand.
just,
'Snap,' the letter was gripped tightly.
Even in the otherwise indifferent air, one could easily sense the man's intense rage through the oppressive atmosphere.
Good morning, or good evening.
[By the time you, Lord Raikage, read this letter, I will have already left Kumogakure. Of course, my next destination is also to further strengthen our Demon Alliance.]
I am very grateful for your hospitality these past few days; it has allowed me to experience a different kind of local culture and customs.
So, I hope we'll meet again someday.
May you have great success in your military endeavors.
When the last line was read, the Fourth Raikage crumpled the simple farewell letter into a ball.
really,
So it turns out you were the one orchestrating all of this!!
In that instant, Ai thought of many things.
What kind of Blood Dragon Eye might become one's ally? What kind of idea is that capturing the hostage would make the Demon Hidden Village hesitant to act?
All of this was just a deception that prompted them to target the Demon Hidden Village.
