Crossover Anime: I Traveled Through 36 Worlds Simultaneously

Onoki, who was at the Iwa ninja camp, suddenly received such bad news. He jumped up from his seat and felt dizzy. He almost fainted from anger.

"You bastards! Why are you only reporting back now?"

"It's been three days already. Are the intelligence agents in all these towns just eating shit?"

Onoki roared furiously.

This takes three days. Even if we speed up the journey, it would only take two days to get here.

In this situation, why did he insist on delaying the report until the third day?

Onoki was so angry he wanted to kill someone!

The Iwa ninja immediately said with a pained expression, "Lord Tsuchikage! The Kumogakure's attack was too sudden and their preparations were too thorough. They had also sent out a large number of elite ninja squads to set up layers of ambushes on various key roads leading here!"

"Many of their comrades who wanted to report the news were completely caught off guard! As a result, the vast majority of them were ambushed and killed!"

"It was only with the desperate escort of several comrades that I managed to get here through the enemy's ambush!"

"Please, please send troops back to our aid immediately!"

Now is really not the time to dwell on these things.

He was willing to die to atone for his sins, only asking that the Tsuchikage send troops back to reinforce him as soon as possible.

"Cloud Village! You guys are ruthless!"

When Ohnoki heard this, he almost ground his teeth to powder!

Just a month ago, he sent a secret letter to the Raikage, inviting him to take advantage of the current turmoil in Konoha and attack Konoha together.

And this is what the Cloud Village did to him?

Did they just raid his base?

"Immediately relay my orders! Have the demolition unit and the vanguard ninja unit carry a small amount of rations and supplies and set off immediately to aid the Land of Earth and the village!"

"Other units should also immediately assemble and set off to provide the same rapid reinforcement! There is no time to lose! Hurry!!!"

Onoki immediately slammed his hand on the table and gave the order hastily.

"Yes!"

The dozen or so Jonin leading the teams in the command tent all accepted the order and ran out to assemble the troops!

"Father! How should we handle things on the front lines?"

Huang Tu also asked with a solemn expression.

Onoki frowned and immediately decided, "Leave five ten-man squads to guard the border, and at the same time send a ceasefire and peace negotiation note to Konoha!"

"Also, let Elder Incheon stay behind and prepare for peace talks with Konoha!"

"Remember to have him stall for time as much as possible, and make it seem unhurried! So as not to arouse suspicion in Konoha!"

"If Konoha launches a counterattack on our front lines, that would be disastrous! Do you understand?"

Ōnoki was also extremely agitated at this moment.

What was originally a great situation was turned upside down by that group of muscle-bound lunatics from the Hidden Cloud Village.

Onoki was so angry he wanted to kill the Third Raikage.

"Yes, Father! I'll go prepare right away!"

Huang Tu immediately accepted the order.

Ten minutes later, the vanguard, demolition team, and some Anbu members of the Iwa ninja set off one after another to quickly return to provide support.

The other troops also all set off within a day.

Only a few small teams were left on this side of the border.

Meanwhile, Orochimaru at the Konoha camp received a peace letter from a messenger sent by the Iwa ninja half a day later.

"Oh?"

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow in slight surprise: "Peace talks? This is quite interesting! Didn't your Tsuchikage just stand there, ready to start another war with Konoha?"

"Why did they suddenly withdraw their troops and choose to negotiate?"

Upon hearing this, the Iwa ninja messenger's pupils contracted slightly, and he replied somewhat nervously, "That was all a misunderstanding! We were just conducting military exercises as usual..."

"Now that the exercise is over, it's time to withdraw the troops! Hehe!"

Iwa chuckled ingratiatingly.

"Tsk tsk!"

Orochimaru, speechless, said, "Your lie is really poorly told! So what if your rear was attacked by the Third Raikage with thousands of ninja? What's so hard to say?"

"What? How did you know?"

The Iwa ninja suddenly raised his head, staring at Orochimaru in astonishment.

They themselves only received the news half a day ago, so why does it seem like Konoha already knew?

"Could it be that you..."

Before the man could finish speaking, Orochimaru raised his hand to interrupt him, saying, "You can't just say things like that! We're still at war with the Cloud Ninja these days! We don't have time to team up with the Cloud Ninja to deal with you!"

"All I can say is that the Raikage and the Cloud Village have very unusual thought processes; you were simply outmaneuvered!"

He was careless and now he wants to shift the blame onto Konoha?

Think more!

"Too!"

The Iwa ninja also came to his senses.

Indeed, the information they received earlier indicated that the Cloud Ninja were at war with the Leaf Village, led by the Raikage Sasuke, the Raikage's son Aoi Yotsuki, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee, and Yugito Nii, among other high-ranking fighters.

It was precisely because of this performance that they fooled all the Iwa ninja!

Even the cunning and treacherous Tsuchikage, Onoki, was deceived.

"What about the peace talks?"

Iwa ninja asked tentatively, a little nervously.

Clearly, he messed things up.

At the same time, the Iwa ninja underestimated Konoha's intelligence capabilities.

This is an information asymmetry!

"Peace talks are not out of the question!"

Orochimaru laughed and replied, "But the terms definitely won't go as you initially planned! You Iwa ninja should be prepared to pay compensation to Konoha! Otherwise, we wouldn't mind taking the opportunity to launch a counterattack against Iwa ninja! Hehehe!!!"

The initiative has shifted, and if he doesn't seize it, he'll be letting down the intelligence that Yunxiao specifically had the Red Queen pass on.

That's right!

Orochimaru knew about the situation in Iwagakure and Kumogakure, and even the war between Kumogakure and Konoha, in advance because of the intelligence information sent by Yunxiao through the communication bracelet a few hours earlier.

Yunxiao even granted Orochimaru partial access to monitoring satellites.

Currently, Orochimaru can access information about the battles between Kumogakure and Iwagakure within the Land of Earth at any time through Kurenai.

At least until now, the vanguard of Iwagakure has not yet made direct contact with Kumogakure.

The Cloud Ninja have begun looting supplies and are preparing to withdraw!

There was no other way! This was the order left by the Third Raikage before he left.

Without him here, Raikage was also worried about his troops continuing their rampage deep behind enemy lines.

The Iwa ninja will realize this sooner or later; Onoki isn't really stupid.

They're not that easy to deal with!

Chapter 377

"This"

Upon hearing this, the Iwa ninja messenger turned pale, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and he stammered, "I cannot make this decision!"

Orochimaru chuckled lightly and said, "Then take my words back and send someone who can make the decision!"

"Remember, I'm only giving you half a day. If you don't have a definite answer by then, the peace talks are over! Let's start the war!"

Konoha is not the same Konoha it used to be.

"Ok!"

Soon, the Iwa ninja messenger left the Konoha camp and rushed back to his own camp as quickly as possible, where he met Onoki, who was still there.

He relayed Orochimaru's words and their conversation to Onoki.

"bump!"

Onoki slammed his hand on the table in front of him, shattering it, and roared, "This is outrageous! What is Konoha trying to do, taking advantage of our misfortune? How dare they!"

Elder Kawaki, standing to the side, shook his head helplessly and said, "They really dare to do that! This is no longer the era when the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was in power!"

"Clearly, Konoha's Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and his supporters are much more radical. It's basically impossible to drag this out and fool people like before!"

"They've got their eyes on the fact that we can't fight on two fronts right now and are in a hurry to go back and rescue our rear!"

Therefore, Kawaki really misses the Third Hokage!

The same applies to Ohnoki in 03.

Look at what the previous three Hokage did?

They're practically like the spies sent by the Iwa ninja.

Several times, the Iwa ninja instigated wars, but they all lost to Konoha. In the end, the Third Hokage kindly refused any compensation or reparations.

Is there anything more thoughtful than this?

"Hiruzen Sarutobi is a piece of trash! How did he get ousted by a junior? It would have been so much better if he were still in power!"

Onoki muttered a few curses, then waved helplessly at Elder Kawaki, saying, "Elder Kawaki! I'm leaving this peace negotiation to you! I need to get going! I'm afraid no one but me can handle the Third Raikage!"

"As long as Konoha's conditions aren't too unreasonable, let's agree to them! At worst, we'll have to pay a price!"

"We really can't afford to waste any more time!"

"If Konoha really starts a war with us now, the Land of Earth will be in real danger!"

Ohnoki is not someone who doesn't know how to be flexible.

You have to be patient when you need to be.

Once they've repelled the Cloud Ninja and are free to deal with them, they can naturally find a way to retaliate.

He's not one to suffer a loss.

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage! I will handle this matter well! However, bleeding is inevitable this time!"

Elder Kawaki nodded in agreement.

"We can agree to the conditions, but don't give us all the supplies at once. Give us a little first, and we can delay giving the rest. Just say that it takes time to gather the supplies, and that we suffered heavy losses from the attack by the Cloud Ninja!"

"I believe you understand what playing the victim means!"

"Once we've dealt with the Cloud Ninja, whether or not we give it to them will be up to us! Hmph!"

Ohnoki is very shrewd!

"Uh, isn't that a bad idea?"

Elder Kawaki was somewhat speechless.

Isn't this just being a scoundrel?

Are they even willing to abandon the reputation of an entire ninja village?

"For the sake of the village, what's the point of having any shame?"

Onoki scoffed and waved his hand impatiently: "Alright! That's settled then! I'm leaving!"

After saying that, Onoki left the camp and, accompanied by several ANBU Jonin, quickly headed towards the rear of the Land of Earth.

Konoha, inside the Hokage's office.
