Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the start.

Chapter 310 Rasa's Ambition

What made him even more desperate was that although Yekura and Sasori were defeated, their strength had increased to a higher level.

Especially Yekura, who actually developed that terrifying high-temperature ninjutsu.

Now it will be even more difficult for him to surpass these two.

Especially since he has to continue stationed here, he has no chance at all. He needs more opportunities to make a name for himself, only in this way can he surpass Scorpion and Yekura in terms of reputation.

In the past two years, although his name Rasa has become famous in the ninja world, he has benefited more from the influence of the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release.

Because he knows Magnet Release, everyone acknowledges his strength, and the ninja world recognizes his strength.

Without Magnet Release, he is nothing.

Therefore, his reputation is very undeserved; compared to Yekura and Sasori, he is far inferior.

Unless he also develops a powerful Magnet Release ninjutsu like Sasori.

However, it is clear that without the heart of a puppet, it will be very difficult for him to do so now.

Their strength is hard to surpass, and their reputation is also hard to surpass.

Both Pakura and Sasori were on the main battlefield where the Sand Village fought against the Leaf Village.

Over the past year, Sasori of the Red Sand dominated Orochimaru, the leader of the Legendary Sannin who possessed Wood Release, and his terrifying Iron Sand Lightning Boundary became famous throughout the world.

Even his Magnet Release was overshadowed.

Needless to say, Yekura's Scorching Release technique, with its high temperature, is already well-known throughout the ninja world.

He also earned a great reputation in the war against Konoha.

Of the three strongest new generation ninjas in Sunagakure, he is actually the weakest.

This was simply unforgivable for Rasa, who aspired to become the Kazekage.

He wanted to make a name for himself; he wanted to attack Iwagakure and demonstrate his strength.

"How about...venturing deeper into the Land of Earth?"

Luo Sha's eyes kept flickering as he weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

Recently, Iwagakure has secretly transferred many ninjas away, and his Sand Eyes have seen this information.

Although it's unclear why Iwagakure withdrew so many ninjas, there's no doubt that this is an excellent opportunity.

There are very few Iwagakure ninja on the other side now, so he can easily take them all out and then march straight into Iwagakure.

Since the two Shinobi World Wars, none of the five great nations have ever had their villages attacked to the point of being forced to retreat.

If he can achieve this, his fame will surely surpass that of Sasori and Yotsumura.

Thinking of this, Luo Sha's heart could no longer remain calm.

But just as he made up his mind to disobey the Fourth Kazekage's orders and attack the Land of Earth, a series of exclamations from outside startled him.

The determination I had made vanished in an instant.

Simply because the Fourth Kazekage has arrived.

Luo Sha's expression changed, and he quickly stepped out of the tent.

"Kazekage-sama!"

"Kazekage-sama!"

Inside the camp, everyone looked towards the rising sun and cheered.

There stood a tall figure in the air with his back to the red sun, facing them. That familiar Kazekage battle coat and face could only belong to their strongest Kazekage in history.

Ever since Li Yao's Wind Release clone defeated Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, he replaced the Third Kazekage as the strongest Kazekage in history, and his fame soared in Sunagakure.

Even though the Sand Ninja on the Iwagakure side of the battlefield were a little annoyed at not being able to make any contributions, their little annoyance vanished instantly when they saw Li Yao's Wind Release clone actually appear, replaced by an indescribable excitement.

Just like complaining that your parents are working away from home and don't care about you, but then suddenly seeing your parents come back, you are filled with endless joy in an instant.

At this moment, the Sand Village ninjas in the camp, upon seeing Li Yao's Wind Release clone, also felt a sense of happiness, as if the Kazekage himself had come to see them.

"That's the charm of the Fourth Kazekage!"

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces in the camp, Rasa sighed inwardly. His previous thoughts completely vanished, and he decided to just obediently carry out the Fourth Hokage's orders.

He looked up at the face that was even younger than his.

At this moment, even Luo Sha's dream of becoming the Wind Shadow dimmed.

It seems that as long as the Fourth Hokage is still alive, he will never have a chance to become the Kazekage.

Unless the Fourth Hokage dies, but who can kill the Fourth Hokage who can subdue the One-Tailed Shukaku?

Thinking of all this, Luo Sha shook his head and walked to the middle of the camp.

At this moment, Li Yaofeng's clone, who had deliberately made a show of himself, also felt he had had enough and fell from the sky to stand in front of Luo Sha.

"Lord Kazekage," Rasa said respectfully.

"Hmm." Li Yaofeng used his clone to look around and got straight to the point: "In one hour, notify everyone to follow me into the Land of Earth."

After saying this, Li Yao's Wind Release clone invited Rasa into the tent to talk in detail. The Sand Ninjas around them became excited after hearing what Li Yao's Wind Release clone said and left to inform the others to make preparations.

Rasa was also very excited; the Fourth Hokage of the Dark Path had finally turned his attention to Iwagakure.

In that case, his chance... uh.

Luo Sha's expression suddenly fell. The Fourth Hokage had come in person. Was there still a chance for him to perform?

There isn't one at all.

Feeling distressed, Rasa led Li Yao's Wind Release clone into the tent and honestly told the clone about the latest intelligence from Iwagakure, including the fact that there weren't enough people in the Iwagakure base.

Li Yaofeng's clone knew this information, but he nodded and didn't care. He came here this time to kill Onoki in front of everyone.

Li Yao had originally intended to make Onoki into a dog, but after sensing the Third Raikage's reaction before his death, he changed his mind.

For someone like Onoki who values ​​the village so much, revealing his identity before his death, allowing him to fully engage in his imagination, and dying in fear makes it all the more satisfying.

An hour later.

All the Sand Ninja gathered at the strongholds surrounding the camp, totaling two hundred people.

There are still people at the more distant outposts, but we don't need them anymore; two hundred people will suffice.

Li Yaofeng used his clone to lead the two hundred men directly towards the largest camp that Iwagakure had left behind.

The border between the Land of Birds and the Land of Earth is a man-made canyon, fifty meters wide, with bare ground on both sides and nothing to cover it.

As soon as Li Yao's Wind Release clone and the rest of the Sand Ninja appeared, the Iwagakure scouts on the opposite side, who were on alert, spotted them. In particular, Li Yao's Wind Release clone, who was walking in front, made no attempt to conceal his identity as the Kazekage.

"That's... the Fourth Kazekage!!!"

"Quickly, go and inform Lord Yellow Earth!"

The squad leader in charge of monitoring the border line saw Li Yaofeng's clone through his binoculars, and his expression changed. He quickly told his companion to inform Lord Huangtu of the camp.

At the same time, the squad leader quickly formed a hand seal and pressed it onto the ground.

"Earth Release: Earth Rumbling Technique!"

A muffled rumble of earthquake sound spread across the earth and outwards.

Three kilometers inside the border, on a hillside, several strongholds enclosed by walls created using earth-escape techniques are the largest camp of the Iwagakure garrison in this area.

A muffled thud resounded, felt by everyone in the camp, and their expressions changed.

This is a unique early warning technique used by their Hidden Rock Village.

The sound of the earthquake was used to notify comrades behind that there was an enemy attack ahead.

"Enemy attack!"

"Quickly, gather your ninja tools and get ready!"

"Hurry, hurry up!"

The yellow earth guarding the camp immediately stepped forward and shouted loudly.

Soon, thirty people gathered around him.
