"Akira Hatake!" Jiraiya looked at Akira Hatake.

"My subordinate is here!"

"Your team will be configured exactly the same as Minato Namikaze's, and you will be responsible for leading your team to attack the right flank of the Hidden Cloud Village's ninja front-line forces, forming a pincer movement with Minato's team!"

"Yes! I take my orders!"

"Kakashi Hatake!" Finally, Jiraiya's gaze fell upon Kakashi.

"You lead the remaining ninjas and follow me in a frontal assault on the Cloud Village's ninja front line. We will try our best to break through the Cloud Village's ninja front line as quickly as possible!"

"Yes! I take my orders!"

"Alright, let's do a final check on the ninja tools, explosive tags, medkits, and all the necessary supplies!"

As soon as Jiraiya finished speaking, a series of rustling sounds of bags being rummaged through filled the air. After a minute, the sounds gradually faded away, and the area returned to its previous quiet state.

"Then, let's go!" Jiraiya waved his hand forward. "Victory is certain!!!"

"Must win!"

As the earth-shaking slogan fell, the ninjas under Jiraiya's command automatically split into three groups the moment they rushed out of the camp, led by Akira Hatake, Minato Namikaze, and Jiraiya respectively.

The Konoha ninja and the Kumo ninja, located within the Land of Hot Water, are about to engage in the most intense battle since the start of their conflict!

……

Meanwhile, in the Hidden Cloud Village, deep in the Land of Lightning, a large number of ninjas had assembled under the orders of the Third Raikage.

The Third Raikage also stood on the command platform, delivering his speech to the approximately 1.5 ninja troops below.

His speech was not overly inflammatory, did not contain much nonsense, and did not include any ideological content.

In the Third Raikage's pre-battle speech, there was only anger and hatred!

And this most primal human desire, when applied to war, shows no sense of incongruity whatsoever.

“A is my son, the future Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure.”

The Third Raikage's voice was deep, but he controlled the volume very well, ensuring that all the Cloud Ninja present could hear him clearly, and that those in the front row did not find it harsh.

"If nothing unexpected happens, A will take my place after my death, or when my strength falls to a low point, and then inherit the name 'Ai'."

"A will become the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure!"

"But the unexpected still happened, and it came very suddenly. A is dead, my son is dead, and your future Fourth Raikage is dead..."

"However, A's death was within my expectations. Although I had never thought about this issue before, I felt relieved when I heard the news."

"War always results in death..."

"You, you, you, you." The Third Raikage pointed his finger repeatedly. "In this war, you should also have relatives, friends, and blood relatives who died on the front lines. Even everyone here could not escape it."

"If they can't escape, how can we, the living, possibly escape?!" The Third Raikage raised his arm, then swung it down fiercely. "I won't run!"

"The living must always bear the responsibilities, desires, anger, and even hatred of the dead."

"It's a selfish statement, but if we can't avenge our fallen comrades and blood relatives, then what is the point of all the power we've gained through all our efforts?!"

"Tell me, what do we need all this power for!" The Third Raikage shouted with all his might, the veins on his neck bulging out in a ferocious and terrifying manner.

"guard!"

"revenge!"

The almost simultaneous, unified shouts resounded through the sky, and contradictory and extremely hypocritical slogans were shouted out.

But this is the essence of worldly disputes: the person you need to protect is my enemy, and the conflict is fundamentally irreconcilable.

Moreover, it's hard to say who's right or wrong, since loving what you love and hating what you hate are everyone's freedom.

If we must impose a restriction on this freedom, there will be no third option other than a broad moral standard or a law that is strictly regulated and in the interests of the vast majority of people.

But this is the world of Naruto...

Here, the law of the jungle is the broadest moral standard, and the strict laws cannot restrain anyone until the supreme ruler of the jungle is completely determined!

Therefore, war and mutual hatred between different forces will continue to entangle themselves until the supreme ruler of the jungle emerges, at which point it will come to an end.

The Third Raikage naturally took revenge as a matter of course without needing to think about the reasons, and the Cloud Ninja below the command platform naturally did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.

"Alright, let's go! Target: the Land of Fire!" The Third Raikage turned and forcefully swung his arm towards the Land of Fire. "Flatten the Land of Fire!"

"Crush the Fire Country!"

"Crush the Fire Country!"

"Crush the Fire Country!"

……

When the entire Cloud Village ninja force came out, the main force of the Iwagakure ninja force also completed its assembly at the same time.

The forces assembled by Iwagakure were no less than those of Kumogakure, totaling around 2, led by Iwagakure's elite Jonin, Higashi Shijin.

The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, showed no intention of going to the front lines. He simply stood in his office, silently watching the Iwa ninja army slowly marching through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

"How are the earthquake nuclear team's preparations going?"

After watching for a while, Onoki turned around and asked Akatsuchi, who was standing next to him.

"Third Tsuchikage, everything is ready. The Earthquake Core Team can depart at any time, just give the order."

"Yes, let's set off with the main group; that way, it'll be easier to hide our tracks."

"Yes, Third Tsuchikage!" Akatsuchi nodded, preparing to relay Onoki's orders.

"Akazuchi, wait."

Suddenly, Onoki called out to Akatsuchi, then took out a well-sealed letter from his pocket, saying, "Give this to Higashi-no-jin."

"Yes, Third Tsuchikage!"

Akatsuchi reached out and took it, then left the Tsuchikage's office.

Meanwhile, Onoki was sitting in a chair, resting his chin on his hands, seemingly lost in thought.

……

The southeastern border of the Land of Fire, where Tsunade's troops are stationed.

What did Danzo Shimura mean?

"Does that mean I'm under less pressure here?!"

Inside the camp tent, Tsunade looked at the dispatch documents in her hand, feeling somewhat annoyed.

The transfer document was very simple; it stated that they were short of manpower and wanted to transfer a group of ninjas from Tsunade's unit to provide support.

Moreover, this dispatch document was approved by Hiruzen Sarutobi, and his signature is still on it.

Tsunade rubbed her temples, put down the dispatch documents in her hand, and called out towards the tent entrance.

"Someone is coming."

"Tsunade-sama."

"Which ninjas among the ninja reinforcements recently sent by the village have not yet been assigned specific war missions?"

"Lady Tsunade, one-third of the genin and one-fifth of the chunin have not yet been assigned war missions."

“I see…” Tsunade nodded, then handed him the dispatch document. “This is the dispatch document signed by the Third Hokage. Go and make the arrangements.”

"Yes, Lady Tsunade." Taking the document, the ninja asked again, "Is this to mobilize all ninjas who are not assigned to war missions?"

"Leave some of the stronger ninjas behind and assign them war missions as soon as possible. Send the rest to support Danzo Shimura's forces."

"I understand, Lady Tsunade."

After receiving the order, the ninja went down to arrange the relevant deployments, and Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin, barring any unforeseen circumstances, would be included in the deployment list.

Gunpowder, intrigue, open and covert schemes—everything related to war was happening simultaneously in various parts of the ninja world.

It is foreseeable that in the coming period, the war situation in the entire ninja world will escalate again, and the intensity will reach an unprecedented level.

Chapter 144 Kirabi the ATM

Within the Kingdom of Tang,

Jiraiya's forces, divided into three groups, launched a fierce attack on the main force of the Cloud Ninja.

Killer Bee, as the commander of the Cloud Ninja army, had anticipated this.

Surprisingly, Killer Bee did not take any corresponding countermeasures. Instead, he simply laid out a defensive counter-attack strategy and went straight to Akira Hatake alone.

As for why Killer Bee approached Akira Hatake, everyone knows the reason.

"Akira Hatake! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Clad in a tailed beast chakra cloak, with a thick lightning armor covering him, Killer Bee charged straight into the range of Akira Hatake's Flying Thunder God Kunai, roaring at Akira Hatake without dodging or avoiding him.

Akira Hatake didn't answer. He knew that Killer Bee had come specifically to find him, wanting to kill him to avenge A.

Sometimes, the power of hatred can make people stronger, but it can also bring some negative effects.

Akira Hatake noticed that Killer Bee no longer used his eccentric rapping style when speaking to others...

It's obvious that A's death caused Killer Bee to turn evil at an extremely fast pace, and his strength naturally increased accordingly.

Even so, Killer Bee shouldn't have approached Akira Hatake.

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing rang out, and Akira Hatake, who had been pursing his lips, suddenly flashed in front of Killer Bee, blocking the Flying Thunder God Kunai he was about to unleash.

Just as Killer Bee was preparing to retaliate against Akira Hatake with the other seven ninja swords, a purplish-red chakra chain pierced through the Tailed Beast Chakra Cloak and Lightning Release Armor, and merged into Killer Bee's flesh and blood.

Akira Hatake had not used his first skill, "Lin Gua: Worry-Free," in combat before, not because he had forgotten, but because the actual combat conditions did not allow it.

Since the start of the Third Shinobi World War, Akira Hatake has never had the opportunity to fight a top-tier enemy ninja in a one-on-one battle.

This time, Killer Bee delivered himself right to Hatake's doorstep, essentially walking right into Hatake's trap.

In a 1v1 situation, as long as you chain your opponent, Akira Hatake can be completely invincible!
