Crossover Anime: Collecting Treasures from All Worlds Starting with Type-Moon

After taking a puff of his pipe, Hiruzen slowly exhaled a smoke ring. He looked at the three ninjas in front of him, wanting to say something cheerful, but the words that came out were dry and unresponsive.

Before him stood his three personal disciples: Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade, who had spent almost the entire year carrying out extremely dangerous missions on the border.

And the three of them certainly did not disappoint Hiruzen Sarutobi, bringing a wealth of invaluable intelligence. What was even more remarkable was that none of them encountered any accidents after carrying out so many high-difficulty missions.

His three students have already reached a very high level of development, and perhaps it won't be long before they surpass their teacher.

Indeed, that was the case. Before long, they would become the legendary "Three Ninjas" who would be renowned throughout the ninja world.

"It's all thanks to your protection, teacher."

Orochimaru's voice was somewhat hoarse, and his words sounded deep and sinister. Even polite words sounded completely different coming from his mouth.

However, they were already used to it, so they didn't find it strange at all.

"I understand how you feel. You traveled a long way from the border with almost no rest on the way, and your first day back was the first day of the new year. You should have been able to rest for a while, but you should know what has happened..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed; the current situation was far from optimistic.

"I know, I know. The entire ninja world is in an uproar right now. They never expected that you, Master, would declare war on Kirigakure. And I heard that the dispute is about some kind of... oh right, a ninja named Uchiha Aki?"

Jiraiya scratched his head. When he saw the news of Hiruzen Sarutobi declaring war on Kirigakure on the front lines, he was almost speechless with shock. The usually gentle and amiable Hiruzen Sarutobi would actually launch a war first? This was completely unexpected by everyone.

"I told you long ago that the Uchiha clan is useless and will definitely cause trouble. Look at them now, they have indeed caused such a big mess, and in the end, Konoha has to clean up their mess."

Tsunade's tone was very unfriendly. As a member of the Senju clan, she naturally had no good feelings towards the Uchiha clan. Moreover, she had heard that her only younger brother, Nawaki, had been injured in this mission, which made her even angrier.

"You can't say that, Tsunade. I heard we really owe a debt to that Uchiha boy this time, otherwise, who knows what might have happened..."

Jiraiya waved his hand helplessly. When would Tsunade ever change her fiery temper? If her personality were even slightly better, even a little bit more feminine, he would immediately get up and chase after her...

But Tsunade like this now is just ridiculous. She's more manly than a man, and she's quick to start fighting at the drop of a hat. Her teammates have changed four times in a year because they couldn't stand her volatile personality.

"Jiraiya, do you want to get beaten up?"

Having been annoyed for a long time after hearing Jiraiya's words, Tsunade slammed her fist into the wall of Hiruzen Sarutobi's office with a loud "bang." Even though she had restrained her monstrous strength, the powerful force still allowed her to smash through the already thin wall.

"Spare me, Lady Tsunade!"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Let's get down to business. The sooner we get this sorted out, the sooner you can all go back and rest." Seeing that his three students still got along as well as before, Hiruzen was quite pleased.

After hearing his words, Tsunade snorted unhappily and withdrew her hands. She also wanted to go home to visit her younger brother as soon as possible, as she had not seen Nawaki for more than half a year.

"Orochimaru, how are things going with your negotiations with Hanzo of the Salamander in the Land of Rain?"

In the current ninja world, if there is any ninja whose name can stand shoulder to shoulder with, or even surpass, the Five Kage, then there is undoubtedly only one person—

"Hanzo the Salamander, the Demigod!"

The Amekage of Amegakure is extremely powerful. It is said that the corpses of the ANBU sent by various countries to assassinate him could stretch from the Red River Valley to the Kannabi Bridge. Of course, this is just an exaggeration, but it is enough to show how powerful he is.

More than ten years ago, the Rain Kingdom was just a poor and weak small country. Anyone could come and trample on it, and its people naturally suffered just as much. The whole country was almost synonymous with weakness.

However, the appearance of Hanzo the Salamander changed everything.

In Amegakure, there is an incredibly powerful summoning beast called the Salamander. Its entire body is covered in poison, and even its breath carries poisonous fumes.

After its death, the salamander's venom sac was implanted into Hanzo's body, thus giving him resistance to the poison. Whenever he breathed, those around him would inhale the poisonous gas, causing them to fear the young Hanzo.

Afterwards, Hanzo not only signed a summoning contract with the Salamander clan, but his strength also expanded rapidly, reaching the Kage level in just ten years. However, unlike ordinary ninjas, his legendary journey did not stop.

Having secured his strength, Hanzo did not follow the path of other talented ninjas from smaller villages and join the ranks of the Five Great Nations. Instead, he quickly built his own power base and wiped out the warlords, bandits, and wandering ninjas in the Land of Rain.

He eventually unified the Land of Rain, holding the dual positions of Daimyo and Amekage. During his years in power, the Land of Rain, located at the intersection of the three kingdoms of wind, earth, and fire, flourished under his rule.

The three great ninja villages watched his development with gritted teeth, but there was nothing they could do. The geographical location of the Land of Rain was too important. All three great nations wanted to possess this land, but none of them wanted to sit idly by and watch the other devour the Land of Rain.

Thus, the three major powers reached a tacit agreement to turn this area into a chaotic no-man's-land, where none of them would annex it or interfere with it, thereby making it a strategic buffer zone between the three powers.

Hanzo's appearance was completely contrary to the interests of the three kingdoms, but what could they do? All the secret agents they sent out and the bounty hunters who accepted the missions never returned, which shows how terrifying Hanzo's strength was.

What's terrifying is that he not only possesses immense strength, but also exceptional wisdom and cunning. He has seen through the plans and conspiracies of the three great powers on numerous occasions, making him almost demonically intelligent.

In the ninja world, he is generally regarded as the most powerful man after "Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi," which is also the origin of his title: Demigod. He is considered to be the ninja who stands at the pinnacle of the ninja world in this era.

In the black market gold exchange, the bounty on the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was 14.5 billion ryo, the bounty on the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was 13.7 billion ryo, and the bounty on the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was 10 billion ryo.

Hanzo of the Salamander had a bounty of 14 billion, only 50 million ryo less than Hashirama's!

After several failed probing attacks on the Rain Kingdom, the three major powers had no choice but to temporarily give up and swallow their anger. After all, the Rain Kingdom's territory was only so small, so let it develop as strong as it could.

There's only one Hanzo the Salamander, so once he dies, things will remain the same as before.

"This is very bad, old man. Do you know what Hanzo the Salamander said?"

Orochimaru licked his lips, and for some reason, his tongue seemed unusually long.

"kindness?"

Orochimaru's words drew everyone's attention.

"Hanzo the Salamander said he was already being lenient by not attacking Konoha, and cooperating with them to deal with Sunagakure and Iwagakure is out of the question. Moreover, Hanzo also said—"

"They demanded that we return all the land north of White Cliff Mountain to the Land of Rain, otherwise they said they couldn't guarantee they wouldn't attack our Konoha. Old man, listen to that! How arrogant is that!"

"Has that guy gone mad?! Is he really that confident he can deal with Konoha? And he wants all the land north of White Cliff Mountain? This is a blatant insult!"

Even the usually good-tempered Jiraiya couldn't help but get furious after hearing Orochimaru's words. In fact, the area north of Mount Shirai was indeed once the territory of the Land of Rain, but that was twenty years ago.

Back then, the Land of Rain was in a chaotic era, and Konoha took the opportunity to occupy a large part of the Land of Rain's land. The Land of Rain itself couldn't do anything about it. But now, times have changed, and the people on that land live in peace and prosperity. They have long considered themselves to be people of the Land of Fire.

Therefore, Jiraiya also believed that the land had long belonged to the Land of Fire, which explains why he was so angry!

"It's no secret that Sunagakure and Iwagakure have formed an alliance. If the combined forces of Sunagakure and Iwagakure were to conquer the Land of Rain first, then the western front would be indefensible. They could then push their army directly into the Land of Rain, teacher."

After a moment's thought, Tsunade came to this conclusion: the situation seemed to have deteriorated overnight to a point that was extremely unfavorable to Konoha.

"I understand about this. So, Jiraiya, what's the news from your side?"

"I don't have anything new to say here. As you already know, the Cloud Village is making great efforts to prepare for war. I heard that supplies and provisions have already been gathered."

Jiraiya shook his head. The Land of Lightning, with its fierce and unruly people, rarely does anything fancy. They usually just overwhelm you with their attacks, nothing special.

"Tsunade, how's your mediation going?" Hiruzen put away his pipe. Although he liked smoking, he knew he had to do it in moderation, otherwise Biwako would probably be furious again.

"The Land of Waterfalls, the Land of Rice Fields, and the Land of Grass have announced that they will remain neutral and will secretly provide some supplies to Konoha." After hearing Tsunade's words, Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, some good news.

Chapter 151: Springtime - War Breaks Out (Please Subscribe)

It's 5:30 in the morning.

"Sleep a little longer... Ah Qiu..."

Hearing that Shen Qiu had already gotten up, Liu Li said somewhat reluctantly that the two of them had stayed up until one or two in the morning last night, and Liu Li did not have as much energy as Shen Qiu.

"You go to sleep first, I'll go make breakfast, and I'll wake you up when I'm done."

After tidying himself up, Shen Qiu spoke gently, then turned and walked towards the kitchen. Looking out the window at the sky where the sun had not yet risen, Shen Qiu sighed softly.

In early February, war... inevitably broke out.

The four great nations seemed to have an unspoken agreement. Kirigakure swiftly conquered the Land of Bears, and as if in retaliation, from the Star Shadows to ordinary people, everyone was slaughtered by Kirigakure, with very few surviving.

Shen Qiu knew that this was Kirigakure venting its dissatisfaction and anger towards Konoha, while also demonstrating its irreconcilable stance against Konoha.

But the bad news didn't stop there.

It is said that the hundreds of thousands of ninja troops stationed in Sunagakure and Iwagakure have been assembled, as have those in Kumogakure. If the four great nations were to launch another "tacit" offensive against Konoha, facing the combined ninja forces of the four great nations at once would be an immense pressure even for Konoha.

In fact, since the beginning of February, ninjas have been constantly heading to the battlefield, including his teacher Hatake Sakumo, as well as Yuhi Shinku, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and many other well-known names.

However, the Uchiha clan seemed to be ignored, and the few people involved in the war only did logistical scheduling and escorting of supplies.

This was Hiruzen Sarutobi's deliberate suppression of the Uchiha clan. Instead of feeling anxious, the clan members all looked very lucky and were extremely happy.

People die on the battlefield! Who doesn't want to live a good life? So much so that some rumors circulated in the village that the Third Hokage was "particularly preferential" to the Uchiha clan.

This is what makes Hiruzen Sarutobi so powerful.

After shaking his head to put these trivial matters out of his mind, Shen Qiu's hands moved at an extremely fast speed, and at the same time, his Sharingan eyes opened.

Using the Sharingan to cook is incredibly extravagant, but he wasn't the only one who did it. Years later, Itachi Uchiha did the same thing after making fried eggs for Sasuke.

"It smells so good, Ah Qiu..."

Wearing only a bathrobe, Liuli rushed to the kitchen without even changing her clothes. Shen Qiu's cooking skills were quite good; he had been in charge of Nan Jie's meals.

Before living with Ruri, he also cooked for himself. With his Sharingan and runes, he could make the same dishes as the chefs in restaurants after watching them once.
