Rebuild the Land of Whirlpools, start with a massive army of the Thirteen Guardian Soldiers.

Cao Ying, without looking up, asked while processing the documents, "Has the news been leaked?"

"Yes, Lord Kusakage!"

"Hmph, that's good."

If you want Haruna Uzumaki, then let's have a showdown between you and the Hidden Cloud Village.

The fiercer the fight, the better. Ideally, both sides should be severely injured, hahaha!

Grass Shadow laughed wildly in his heart, but as he laughed, he felt a wave of sorrow.

This is the predicament of small countries!

If their Grass Country is powerful, why would they need to do this?

boom!

Just as he was grieving, the office door was suddenly pushed open!

Kusakage looked up in displeasure and saw a Kusakage ninja panicking, saying, "No! Something terrible has happened, Kusakage-sama!!"

Cao Ying frowned. "What is it!"

"The village, there are so many of them above the village!"

Kusakage was startled. "Could it be that the Land of Whirlpools has attacked so quickly?"

Wait, didn't he agree to let Haruna Uzumaki go home? Why is the Land of Whirlpools attacking again?

Did the Land of Whirlpools not receive the message? Search ￠▲QＵN:舅（0∑≮四⑧√。偲贰9〗⑤

Kusanagi Shinobu gasped, "No, it's not the Land of Whirlpools!"

Kusakage breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't the Land of Whirlpools. Then, staring at the Kusakage ninja, he said unhappily, "If it's not the Land of Whirlpools, why are you panicking!"

"Grass, Lord Grass Shadow..."

Secretary Cao Ying stared blankly out the window, her lips trembling slightly.

Following her gaze, Cao Ying turned to look out the window, and her eyes widened instantly!

"What, what is this?!"

………………

Please give me flowers! Please give me ratings!

Chapter 40 Ilford: I will eventually crush Death!

Cao Ying stood by the window, her eyes wide and her mouth slightly open.

They were somewhat at a loss regarding the sudden changes in Kusagakure Village.

Outside the window, the sky above Kusagakure was densely packed with strange...monsters?

The most eye-catching one was a somewhat chubby... orange-haired monster?

Above the orange-haired monster stood a creature with long, light golden hair and deep purple eyes.

A man with an elegant and handsome appearance, wearing a unicorn-shaped mask on the top left side of his head.

As if sensing the gaze of the grassy shadows, the man grinned in their direction and shouted, "Let the feast begin, brothers!"

The monsters let out a strange cry in unison and suddenly bent down.

The ninjas charged toward the villagers who stood there dumbfounded and at a loss.

Soon, someone died from their mouth, letting out a bloodcurdling scream.

It was only then that the people of Kusagakure Village realized what was happening.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"

"Ahhh, don't eat me! Don't eat me!"

"Monster! Monster!!"

The peaceful ninja village was transformed into a living hell in the blink of an eye!

Upon seeing this, Cao Ying's eyes widened in fury. She burst through the window and roared, "Stop!"

But clearly, his anger was ignored.

"Don't be so angry, brother. My brothers will stop once they've eaten their fill."

Ilford Granz spoke in a comforting tone, but it clearly had no effect and only made Kusakage angrier!

Grass Shadow Flow - Hair Break Palm!

Suddenly, Grass Shadow launched an attack, her figure as erratic as the wind, striking Ilford Granz with a palm!

It worked!

Seeing that Ilford Granz showed no intention of avoiding him, Grass Shadow was secretly pleased, while also mocking his arrogance.

boom!

A dull, heavy thud rang out, and Caoying's heart sank as well.

It felt like hitting a steel plate, making his palm go numb.

Ilford Granz tilted his head and said, "Brother, are you giving me a massage?"

"hateful!"

Enraged, Grass Shadow unleashed a barrage of palm strikes upon Ilford Granz.

"A little to the right, yes, a little more to the right. Your skills are pretty good. Interested in working in Hueco Mundo, bro?"

"Huh~"

Cao Ying, panting heavily, stared blankly at Ilford Granz, who hadn't even broken a skin, and a sense of defeat welled up in her heart.

"it's over?"

Ilford Granz is active and moving his body, feeling generally okay. (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the initial sentence.)

That force was so great that it couldn't even break through his steel plate.

"Come down and I'll serve you, brother."

"Smash yourself, Prince Azure Horn!"

Ilford's size instantly increased, his upper body was covered with white armor, and the mask covering his head transformed into a bull's head!

Grass Shadow's pupils contracted sharply. Before he could even be shocked by the change, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest as a pair of bull horns pierced through him!

The immense impact shattered his internal organs, sending him crashing into the Grass Shadow Building behind him!

boom! !

The building collapsed instantly, raising a cloud of dust!

Ilford retracted his horns, looked at the dying Grass Shadow lying beneath the collapsed building, and muttered, "So weak..."

Although Kusakage is called a Kage, as the Kage of a small ninja village, his strength is at most that of an elite Jonin.

Faced with Ilford's unreasonable attacks, they obviously couldn't withstand it.

"Why, why..."

Kusakage's eyes were unfocused; he couldn't understand how Kusaka Village had been targeted by these inhuman creatures.

Suddenly, as if he had just realized something, his pupils dilated instantly, and he stammered, "The Land of Whirlpools!"

Recently, the only force that has connections with Kusagakure and is capable of destroying them is the Land of Whirlpools!

But he clearly agreed to the conditions set by the Land of Whirlpools, so why...?

Is it...

He was found out?

"what?"

When Ilford heard the words "Vortex Country," his expression turned grim, recalling the scene when he was recruited by the King and surrounded by the Grim Reapers.

Enraged, he shouted, "Huh? Those Shinigami from the Land of Whirlpools? I'll blow their heads off one by one sooner or later!"

Although their king is the same person, it does not affect their antagonistic relationship with the Grim Reaper.

No, it isn't?

Grass Shadow breathed its last, filled with doubt, its eyes wide open in death.

"Tsk, boring."

Ilford thought he was in for some fun, but the fun turned out to be so weak.

In a corner of Kusagakure Village.

Having donned her orange coat once more, Yoruichi Shihouin, carrying Haruna Uzumaki, quickly fled the Land of Grass.

Haruna asked in terror, "Yoruichi-neechan, what are those monsters?!"

After spending a short time together, Haruna Uzumaki also gained some understanding of this older sister who suddenly appeared in front of her.

According to the older sister, she came from the Land of Whirlpools and came to take her home.
