I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 515 No one's dream starts with cars and houses; it's more likely to be about achieving great things and becoming a prime minister of six kingdoms.

The Third Raikage's two-handed piercing technique pierced through Tenfu's body, and the force and rampant lightning it carried completely tore Tenfu apart. But before the Third Raikage could even lament, his own fingers were blocked again.

Looking up, there was still that crimson Susanoo skeleton, and in the center of the skeleton, the Uchiha, shedding tears of blood, still stood.

"Thump~ Buzz buzz~"

As another collision occurred, the Third Raikage frowned. His first thought was that it was a genjutsu! But with his current rampant and violent chakra, what genjutsu could deceive him?

"Crack! Bang!"

Before the Third Raikage could figure it out, Susanoo was shattered once more, and his fingers pierced Tenka's flesh again. This realistic sensation couldn't be an illusion! But...

"Thump~ Buzz buzz~"

He only took a few steps forward before his attack was blocked again. It was still the crimson chakra skeleton, still the Uchiha with tears of blood streaming down his face.

"What's going on?!"

"Crack! Bang!"

"Thump~ Buzz buzz~"

The Third Raikage couldn't understand it at all. He tore this Uchiha apart time and time again, but this Uchiha would always reappear. Apart from the changes in the blood and tears on his face, it was as if he was trapped in a repetitive cycle.

No, it's not a repetitive cycle. He's at least getting closer and closer to Tatsuma, but... he's exhausted the power of this attack.

"Thump~"

This time, Susanoo withstood the Third Raikage's attack. Tenka showed a strained smile, and under the Third Raikage's horrified gaze, he pointed upwards.

The Third Raikage looked up and saw another enormous Tailed Beast Ball fly out.

"Boom! Rumble rumble~"

Another mountain was swallowed up, and along with it, very few of the Cloud Ninja on that mountain escaped.

"Lord Raikage! I'm here to negotiate!"

Tatsuma's voice rang out again. The Third Raikage shook his head, leaped backward, and created a great distance. His eyes were wide open as he scanned his surroundings.

He couldn't understand it! What kind of method was this? This was even more unacceptable to the Third Raikage than the severe injuries he suffered in the battle with Tatsuma. An extremely bizarre enemy, with extremely bizarre methods.

The Third Raikage looked up at Tatsuma, who had once again formed a Tailed Beast Ball in his hand, and demanded, "What do you want to talk about?!"

He dared not continue. One Tailed Beast Ball from Tatsuma could devour the lives of hundreds of Cloud Ninja, while his two outbursts had only managed to knock out two Konoha Ninja whose names he couldn't even remember.

Who knows how long this Uchiha can hold out? And who knows if another young man from Konoha will step forward and stop his attack?

At this moment, not only was he somewhat suspicious, but the Cloud Ninja had also panicked. During the time that Tatsuma and the Konoha ninja had not launched an attack, they began to flee haphazardly and aimlessly.

Tatsuma did not answer immediately, but instead stalled for time, condensing a huge Tailed Beast Ball in his hand before saying, "Lord Raikage, I am Sakamoto Tatsuma. On behalf of Konohagakure in the Land of Fire, I hereby make the following request to Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning!"

First, the Cloud Ninja forces that invaded the Land of Fire must be withdrawn unconditionally.

Second, disband the Cloud Ninja forces here unconditionally until we leave the Land of Lightning;

Third, take full responsibility and apologize unconditionally for invading the territory of the Land of Fire, harming the people of the Land of Fire, and infringing upon the interests of the Land of Fire;

Fourth, surrender unconditionally to the Land of Fire, fulfill the obligations of a major power to maintain peace in the ninja world, and sign a non-aggression pact with the Land of Fire!

"fart!!!"

The Third Raikage was about to refuse when Tatsuma interrupted, asking, "Lord Raikage, I wonder how many Tailed Beast Balls Kumogakure and your daimyo's residence can handle?"

"Sakamoto Tatsuma! You're blatantly disregarding the rules of the ninja world!"

"Rules? Who made the rules?"

Tatsuma brandished the Tailed Beast Ball in his hand, looking down at the Third Raikage, refusing to budge an inch, and even trying to push his luck.

"The Ninja World War is a matter for ninjas. How dare you use a daimyo to threaten us?!"

"Is the Daimyo a ninja?"

"no."

"Why is it that when the Hidden Cloud Village invaded a large number of non-ninja Naturals in the Land of Fire, why is it that the Raikage cannot accept it when the Land of Fire does the same thing?"

"Daijo and Commoner"

"Excuse me, I was talking about ninjas and non-ninjas. If you want to bring up class distinctions, go talk to your country's daimyo!"

Once again interrupted by Tatsuma, the Third Raikage's chest heaved with anger, but looking at the Tailed Beast Ball in Tatsuma's hand, he couldn't just break off relations directly.

"Kumakuya Village cannot accept such conditions!"

He could only reply that since it was a negotiation, then...

"The Daimyo's residence in the Land of Lightning isn't far from here. I've happened to be there before, and I just happened to leave behind a Flying Thunder God kunai, Raikage."

After Tatsuma finished speaking, he raised an eyebrow at the Third Raikage, making a blatant threat. Upon hearing Tatsuma's words, the Third Raikage's tall and muscular body trembled involuntarily.

If this Tailed Beast Ball were to fall into the Daimyo's territory, regardless of whether the current Daimyo would be affected, the Hidden Cloud Village would certainly not receive a single penny of funding from the Daimyo's territory in the future.

"I cannot give you an answer immediately, and besides, the conditions you have proposed are too..."

"Lord Raikage, as you know, maintaining a ninjutsu is a very physically demanding task."

Tatsuma interrupted again, which was very disrespectful, but when it came to dividing up the spoils, there was no room for gentlemanly modesty. Seeing the Third Raikage's face darken once more, Tatsuma spoke again:

"Furthermore, our request is only to restrict the military actions of Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village) of the Land of Lightning against Konoha (Hidden Leaf Village) of the Land of Fire. As for other targets..."

Some things can be implied, no matter how obvious, but the key words cannot be said. However, the Third Raikage already understood Tatsuma's meaning, and a hint of thought appeared on his angry face.

If the Cloud Ninja withdraw from the Land of Fire, then there will be more military forces available for deployment. At the same time, by eliminating their biggest problem—the Hidden Cloud Village—Konoha will also have the possibility of counterattacking the other two countries.

In other words, the war has entered its next phase. Iwagakure and Sunagakure are facing difficulties and heavy losses in their attack on the Land of Fire, and there is a high possibility that their flanks will be breached.

"I need to discuss this with the Daimyo, and you must relinquish control over the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails! Return them to Kumogakure!"

The Third Raikage chose to concede, and Tatsuma nodded, saying, "I'll give you ten minutes. As for the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails, they will naturally be returned when I lead the Konoha ninja out of the Land of Lightning's borders."

"Impossible! If it were..."

"Unlike Yunren, I still keep my promises."

Interrupted yet again, the Third Raikage's body began to crackle with electricity, but Tatsuma extended his left hand, which was not supporting the Tailed Beast Ball, and said, "Lord Raikage, please contact your country's daimyo as soon as possible."

"snort!"

The Third Raikage was on the verge of bursting with anger, but he held on and returned to the outer group of Cloud Ninja.

Tatsuma stopped interfering and maintained the Tailed Beast Ball in his hand, waiting quietly. At the same time, he looked at Tenka and asked, "Are you alright?"

"He won't die."

As soon as the Third Raikage left, Tenka collapsed to the ground. It took him a while to get up and walk over to Nawaki and Sento to check on them.

Ten minutes passed in a flash. Just as Tatsuma was wondering whether he should let the Tailed Beast Ball "go out of control," the Third Raikage returned, holding a few pieces of paper in his hand, and said:

"I agree to your conditions! But if you do not return the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails, or if you delay their return under any pretext after leaving the Land of Lightning, then this treaty is null and void, and all consequences will be borne by Konohagakure of the Land of Fire!"

"certainly!"

Tatsuma nodded in agreement, and Shikaku had already run over on his own initiative, ignoring the imposing aura of the Third Raikage, and took the treaty documents from the Third Raikage's hand, quickly checking them.

"no problem."

Shikaku nodded, and the Third Raikage snorted again, looking at Tatsuma, and said, "Sakamoto Tatsuma! I can represent Iwagakure of the Land of Lightning to sign this treaty, and what about you?"

"The name Sakamoto Tatsuma cannot possibly be unrepresentative."

"Hmph! It had better be that way!"

The Third Raikage retrieved the treaty documents and quickly signed his name. Shikaku took them, went to Tatsuma's side, and handed him the paper and pen. Tatsuma then pushed the Tailed Beast Ball in his hand into the air.

"Boom! Rumble rumble~"

Amidst the deafening roar and the howling wind, Tatsuma picked up his pen and signed his name, keeping a copy for himself, saying, "Lord Raikage, please fax this letter to all the nations of the ninja world."

At the same time, to fulfill the terms of the treaty, at the very least, the Cloud Ninja here must be disbanded; otherwise, I won't feel at ease.

With a grim face, the Third Raikage retrieved his copy of the document and returned to the Cloud Ninja group, directing them to prepare for a retreat.

"Is that all?"

Tianfeng was somewhat dazed. Just a few sheets of paper, a few signatures, and the life-and-death war had come to an end.

"It doesn't matter how many people who participate in the war die, but those who plan the war cannot die. As long as the lives of those who plan the war are threatened, they will not hesitate to give in."

Chenma waved the document in his hand, then stuffed it into his pocket. He looked at the flattened mountain and said, "It's still not quite there."

"Don't cause trouble!"

Shikaku muttered in annoyance, "What is that bastard up to now?! Now that the matter is resolved, why don't you just go back and get some sleep?!"

Tatsuma didn't answer immediately. Looking at the Konoha ninja gradually gathering in their direction, he seemed to remember something, looked at Shikaku, and asked, "Is the list still there?"

"Yeah, but I lost some more last night, and I haven't filled them in yet."

"Fill it in now."

Hearing Tatsuma's words, Shikaku wondered why he hadn't left yet, but he still took out the list of the sacrificed ninjas, filled in dozens of names, and handed the list to Tatsuma when Tatsuma reached out to ask for it.

Looking at the names listed above, Tatsuma let out a long breath, and the little chakra he had left in his body gathered again.

"Sage Art! Earth Escape! Earth Core!"

Chenma clasped his hands together, forming the Si Seal. With just one seal, he was able to connect with the ground, and a huge square stone gradually rose up.

The Cloud Ninja, who were organizing the retreat, all turned around when they heard the commotion. Tatsuma came to the rock and placed his hand on it.

"Shhh~"

Magnet Release chakra seeped into the stone, causing some fine sand to peel off its surface. At first, the Konoha ninjas around and the Cloud ninjas who were about to leave did not know what Tatsuma was planning to do.

But after a while, all the Konoha ninjas were moved to tears, because the names of their comrades were written on the paper.

"Tianfeng, give me a fire."

Tatsuma wanted to do it himself, but with only a little chakra left, and the need to control the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails, he had to let Tenka do it for him.

Tianfeng wiped his face, nodded, and the Konoha ninjas around him retreated. He leaped high into the air and formed hand seals.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

"Boom!"

Flames scorched the massive stone tablet, and Chenma maintained the stability of its internal form. After the flames dissipated, a black stone tablet emitting a fluorescent glow emerged.

"Konoha, this is outrageous!"

Ai, held tightly by the earthen platform, looked at the Konoha Memorial Monument standing on the land of the Land of Lightning, wanting nothing more than to rush up and fight Tatsuma to the death. But his father patted him on the shoulder and said:

"This is the privilege of the winners, to run rampant on the corpses of the losers. Let's go."
