The sealed text on the ground dissolved quickly, like ink stains that have been exposed to rain.
The moment the kunai was pulled out,
The ground was instantly pierced by surging purple energy.
The frog cub reacted quickly, grabbing Kushina's shoulder and disappearing from the spot in an instant.
Bai Hao manipulated the dragon vein energy according to the method Baizu remembered.
The pale purple beam of light received the command and quickly gathered its energy, enveloping Bai Hao.
In a moment,
The beam of light gradually dissipated, and Bai Hao's figure also disappeared from the spot.
After the energy subsided, Kushina and the frog returned to take another look at the empty ruins.
The man and the frog disappeared from the spot.
…………
When Bai Hao opened his eyes, the surroundings had transformed from desolate and dilapidated ruins into a prosperous and powerful nation called the Tower Country.
Without hesitation, he immediately vanished from the tower, activating [Aura Concealment] throughout, and headed straight for Konoha.
Konoha is far from Loulan; it takes elite Jonin three days to travel there.
But Bai Hao successfully infiltrated Konoha in less than two minutes.
He glanced at the Hokage Rock behind the Hokage Building.
At that time, there were only three statues here.
"The approximate time should be fine, now we just need to check the specific date."
Bai Hao stood quietly on the head of Hiruzen Sarutobi, his arms crossed.
A powerful spiritual force instantly filled the entire Hidden Leaf Village.
No movement in the village escapes Bai Hao's perception.
"Today is another review lesson on the Shadow Clone Technique!"
"I want to emphasize again that this is a required question! Everyone must take it seriously!"
"I heard there's an envoy from Kumogakure today. What do you think they're doing?"
"I don't know, I heard they came to negotiate."
"Why bother with all that? What does this have to do with us?"
"I, Hiruzen Sarutobi, on behalf of Konoha, extend my greetings to all the envoys from Kumogakure."
"Hmph! We, the Hidden Cloud Village, have come with sincerity!"
"I hope the Hokage can also show their sincerity."
"..."
Bai Hao glanced at the calendar on the wall of the Hokage's office.
[Konoha 41 Years]
Combined with the news of the peace talks with Kumogakure,
This was clearly the eve of Kushina, the future Jinchūriki, being kidnapped by the Kumogakure delegation!
It's ridiculous to say that.
At this time, the Second Shinobi World War had just ended four years prior.
All ninja villages are in a period of recuperation and rest.
It's highly unlikely that anyone would be foolish enough to cause trouble.
But the Cloud Village just had to send an envoy to Konoha at this crucial moment.
They also planned to use the pretext of peace talks to kidnap Kushina, the future Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!
Anyone with eyes can see that the Hidden Cloud Village has ill intentions!
If they really came to negotiate, what were they doing for the past few years?
Four years have passed since the Second Shinobi World War ended.
Everything that needed to be discussed has already been discussed.
If you can't reach an agreement, dragging things out won't get you anywhere!
This time, the Cloud Village Peace Talks clearly have ulterior motives!
But is Kumogakure going to start a war?
During the Second Shinobi World War, the Hidden Cloud Village arranged for Kinkaku and Ginkaku to assassinate Tobirama Senju, the current Hokage.
The Hidden Cloud Village can be considered Konoha's mortal enemy!
From the perspective of hatred,
It's already good that Konoha didn't go after Kumogakure.
From the perspective of combat power
In this battle, Konoha lost Tobirama Senju, and Kumogakure also lost two Kage-level shinobi, Ginkaku and Kinkaku.
The losses in combat power on both sides were roughly the same.
But Konoha now only has Hiruzen Sarutobi and Sakumo Hatake remaining.
Both of them are Kage-level powerhouses in their prime!
Although the three legendary Sannin are not in Konoha, they are ready to return to provide support at any time.
With only the Eight-Tails and the Third Raikage, the Hidden Cloud Village had no chance of defeating the Hidden Leaf Village at its peak!
Lei Zi may be a reckless fool, but he's not stupid!
Therefore, the Cloud Village's trip was definitely not aimed at starting a war!
It was neither peace talks nor war.
Yunyin's purpose is now crystal clear!
They must have received some intelligence that the Konoha authorities were up to something!
Moreover, this situation is very conducive to the Cloud Village causing trouble!
In the Hokage's office.
The arrogant Cloud Village delegation had just left the Hokage Building.
Danzo Shimura, who had been listening in, slammed his fist on the table and pointed at Hiruzen Sarutobi's nose, cursing...
"Sarutobi!"
"Are you stupid?!"
"Kumakuya is the enemy who killed our teacher!"
"You actually intend to negotiate peace with Kumogakure?!"
"Have you forgotten how our teacher left behind to cover our retreat in order to save us?!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi adjusted his Hokage hat, took a drag of his cigarette, and said calmly,
"Danzo, that's precisely why we can't let our teacher's sacrifice be in vain."
He slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth, his voice growing increasingly low.
"The peace we enjoy today was bought with the lives of our teachers!"
"Do you want to start another war and make all the teachers' efforts go to waste?!"
"you!"
Shimura Danzo was so angered by Sarutobi Hiruzen's clever arguments that he was speechless.
He looked at the Hokage hat on Sarutobi's head and took two deep breaths.
His lust for power was blatantly obvious.
"Sarutobi!"
"Konoha should not be your domain!"
You'll regret your decision!
"Danzo!"
"I am the Hokage!"
"Oh!"
With a slam of the door, their conversation came to a complete end.
Koharu and Homura looked at each other and then took their leave.
A few minutes later.
