Konoha's task master

Yakumo's shadow clone returned to Konoha with the two surviving people. With the arrest of the leaders of the Four Powers Alliance, the so-called Ninja World War seemed to have disappeared without even starting.

He once again single-handedly changed the structure of the ninja world.

At this time, Onoki, the third Tsuchikage, was in an extremely complicated mood. A few hours ago, he was scheming with Ai, the fourth Raikage, but the pride in his heart seemed to encompass the entire ninja world.

At that time, Yakumo seemed to have become a piece of meat on the chopping board and could be completely eliminated at any time. By then... Iwagakure Village will definitely compete with Kumogakure Village for the new overlord.

But it only lasts a few hours...

The Fourth Raikage who was scheming with him has died, and at the same time, the idea of ​​​​Iwagakure Village's struggle to dominate everything has also died.

What Onoki is thinking about now is how to preserve Iwagakure Village.

Since Yakumo had to take the two of them with him, his flying speed inevitably dropped. Two vines grew from his hands, binding Ohnoki and Terumi Mei tightly. The two did not resist at all.

It seems very cooperative.

"Yakumo-sama, do you know what the Hokage plans to do with Iwagakure Village?"

The Third Tsuchikage Onoki asked with a guilty conscience. At this time, he was very frightened and uneasy. His whole body seemed to have aged several years in a few minutes.

In one second, the Fourth Kazekage died.

Two seconds later, the Fourth Raikage died.

The huge gap in strength made him want to kneel down on the spot. He was willing to abandon all pride and dignity in exchange for the continuation of Iwagakure Village.

"Your ideas in the past few years have made Konoha very dissatisfied. I guess you won't be able to get through so easily this time."

Yakumo thought for a while and told the information he had, because he had no need to hide it. Whether Onoki knew it in advance or knew it later, it would not affect the final overall situation.

"Then what does Konoha plan to do?" Onoki asked.

"Well, it's actually very simple..."

Yakumo repeated Namikaze Minato's thoughts.

"The four major countries abolished their national systems and merged into the Land of Fire, the four hidden villages were banned, and all members moved to Konoha for management and arrangements."

"This is impossible..."

The Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki immediately retorted that he did not expect Konoha's ambition to be so great. What it wanted was not the surrender of the four major nations but the plan to directly cancel the independence of the four major nations.

"It's a pity... you don't have the strength to resist, but as a condition, Konoha will help change the climate of the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind, making the land conducive to the cultivation of food, so that people will not starve to death every year." Yakumo continued.

road.

This is the result of discussions between Namikaze Minato and several others. The strength of Konoha has made them no longer want to limit their influence to the Land of Fire, but to let their influence radiate to the Ninja World and become a city that transcends everything.

"Whose decision is this?" The Third Tsuchikage Onoki asked. He must admit that when the Meteor Cannon was destroyed and the Fourth Kazekage and the Fourth Raikage were killed, the Four Nations Alliance had lost the ability to resist.

"Hokage, Uchiha Clan Leader, Senju Clan Leader, Hyuga Clan Leader."

These names are enough to make the ninja world tremble when placed in the ninja world. They represent the pinnacle of power in Konoha, and they control the most powerful violent organization in the ninja world.

In recent years, the Uchiha clan has developed strongly, and its influence is no longer limited to the Land of Fire. Especially as the leader of the Uchiha clan, he is already the uncrowned king of the dark forces in the ninja world.

"This matter cannot be discussed." Ohnoki asked.

"That's right."

"Why...."

The Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki began to calculate the success rate of the four powers if they resisted. After all, in terms of the sheer number of troops, the Four Nations Alliance had the absolute upper hand.

"Don't even think about resisting, it's useless."

Yakumo noticed Onoki's thoughts and poured cold water on him mercilessly.

"Besides me, there are three strong men in Konoha who are comparable to Uchiha Madara, and there are countless Kage-level masters similar to you... Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique is enough to kill nearly a hundred elites in one second.

Ninja."

"What, how is this possible?" Onoki immediately retorted. He couldn't believe that Konoha still had so many strong men outside Yakumo. After all, the rest of them didn't have a strong record in the ninja world at all.

"Forget it if you don't believe it."

In recent years, the ninja world has been in a state of peace. Masako Mori, Qianxue Qianxue, and even Reiko Aoyama have not had many opportunities to take action. In addition, they often go to other worlds for adventures with themselves.

The traces of a few people in the ninja world are naturally even rarer.

"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be."

Ohnoki was still in the mode of doubting life, kept muttering softly, and his eyes gradually lost their sparkle.

"You guys, by focusing more on me, you have naturally ignored other rising strong men, such as the big explosion that occurred outside Konoha Village some time ago."

"What happened to that big explosion?"

Ohnoki remembered this information. The information at that time said...

'Konoha is suspected of developing high-intensity damaging weapons.'

"That was actually the aftermath of the discussion between the two."

Yakumo smiled. When he is strong enough, he will naturally not care about the suspicion and hostility of some people. After all... no matter how hard an ant tries, it cannot kill the eagle in the sky.

After hearing this, Onoki's face became even paler.

"Is there really no hope?"

"Pfft...it's really gone." Yakumo said.

In the past, the Fire Nation was only tolerant because it didn't care about the profit. Konoha's forbearance was also regarded as weakness by the enemy. Now the Fire Nation has finally become serious, and Konoha has also shown its anger.

But the other four countries simply cannot afford this outcome.

Ten minutes later, Yakumo landed on the platform of the Hokage building, led the two of them through the downward stairs to visit Shimonami Fengshuimon, while the main body had already arrived at the Hokage's office.

"go in."

Yakumo's shadow clone pointed at the door of the Hokage's office. In fact, he had completed his mission by getting here.

"That...Yakumo-sama."

Suddenly, Terumi Mei, who had been silent for the entire journey, called out to Yakumo.

"What's wrong?"

"Excuse me, do you have a girlfriend?"

Terumi Mei seemed to have made up some kind of determination and asked.

"It seems that Kirigakure Village sent someone to come when I got married, right?"

Yakumo smiled and asked.

"Oh oh oh, I remembered..."

"Would you mind having more than one girlfriend?"

Terumi Mei lowered his head, his cheeks slightly red. After all, this was the first time in his life that he confessed to the opposite sex.

Onoki next to him was a little angry. He thought Terumi Mei didn't say anything along the way. He was essentially a law-abiding person, but he didn't want to sacrifice himself for the last one...

"This girl is not a good person!" Onoki sighed.

"I mind."

In the office, Yakumo had a playful smile on his face. He really didn't expect Terumi Mei to make a bold confession at the last moment.

"What's wrong? Yakumo-sama."

Namikaze Minato turned the pen in his hand with a curious tone. He had just received the news from Yakumo that all the hidden village shadows had been eliminated.

But now it was still hard for him to accept that it was like the war hadn't started yet, but all the enemy leaders had been assassinated.

Yakumo could see Namikaze Minato's surprise. If he directly told the news that the meteor cannon almost succeeded in firing, Konoha was almost destroyed.

Then, Namikaze Minato's surprise should turn into fear.

Ohnoki and Terumi Mei opened the door, and the first thing they saw was Minato Namikaze sitting behind the desk...with a sunny smile on his face, and then Yakumo and Jiraiya were lying on the sofa without any appearance.

And... other high-rise people sitting on wooden chairs.

All Konoha high-level officials were present for this negotiation, and their goal was simple, that is, to have the remaining four countries dissolve their independent systems and merge into the territory of the Fire Nation.

Of course, if this is successful, Konoha will be able to renegotiate the amount of military expenditures allocated to the Daming Prefecture every year. This is an excellent opportunity for the major ninja clans.

"Please take a seat, the Third Tsuchikage and the Fifth Mizukage."

Namikaze Minato stood up and bowed slightly to express his great respect for the two of them. Even though the two of them were like prisoners at this time, he still fulfilled all the etiquette.

"Thank you, Lord Sixth Hokage."

Ohnoki looked around at the seats in the office. Although there was still an empty seat next to Yakumo, he still firmly chose the wooden chair. Terumi Mei planned to sit next to Yakumo, but was stopped by his eyes.

"Yakumo-sama, you have already told me Konoha's thoughts. The country will cancel its independent system and completely merge into the Land of Fire. I can't make the final decision on this matter. I need the daimyo's nod."

After Ohnoki sat down, he said quite directly.

Naturally, he could not agree to such a thing as dismantling the country's independent system, which might carry a millennium of infamy, and directly posed the question to the Daimyo of Earth Country.

"I see."

When Namikaze Minato faced the Third Tsuchikage's statement about pushing the ball, the smile on his face did not diminish at all, and he continued to smile and spoke.

"In three days, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth will reunite with you here."

Defeating Iwagakure in three days, which is famous for its tenacity, may sound like an unrealistic dream, but the problem is that Masako Mori, the first legion to conquer Iwagakure, fought as an accompanying ninja.

That's a terrifying combat power comparable to...Six Paths.

It can be said that in a sense, Yakumo is invincible without Mori Masako. Although Iwagakure Village also has trump cards, it cannot stop Mori Masako at all. After all, their tailed beasts have been snatched away by Uchiha Madara.

"I....."

Ohnoki wanted to say that he didn't believe that anyone could capture Earth Country within three days, but thinking of the terrifying strength displayed by Yakumo, he swallowed this sentence hard.

Now, he regrets agreeing to the Fourth Raikage Ai.

The so-called four-nation alliance is for strength and win-win, but it does not want to become the key to promote destruction.

"So...the Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei, what do you think?"

Namikaze Minato still had a smile on his face, but looked at Mei Terumi who was in another position.

Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hizashi...and Tsunade, did not express any objection to Namikaze Minato's words, which is equivalent to their belief that the entire Earth Kingdom will fall within three days.

"I can't make the final decision on this matter. I need your approval."

Although Mei Terumi is a little obsessed with Yakumo, she still has the necessary calmness and judgment as the leader of Kirigakure Village before this big matter of right and wrong.

In fact... the status of the leaders of the Hidden Villages is really not too high, they are more like thugs who may be dismissed at any time. They really have no way to make decisions about disbanding the country and merging it into the Country of Fire.

In the end, this conversation did not yield much benefit.

Ohnoki and Terumi Mei were temporarily confined to Konoha. Although they were not imprisoned, they could only move freely within the small courtyard.

At the same time, a war elsewhere is about to break out.

The disappearance of the four shadows caused a moment of confusion among the four-nation coalition forces stationed at the border of the Land of Fire. Finally, under the call of several strong men, they managed to regain their composure, but because of the disappearance of the shadows, people's hearts could not be settled.

This also paved the way for the failure of the subsequent battle.

The next day, the two armies went to war.

Masako Mori and Chiyuki Chiyuki cut through the enemy's camp. When the two of them joined forces, no one could stop them. In the end, half an hour after the battle started...

The four temporary commanders announced their surrender.

In this battle, Konoha suffered less than a thousand casualties.

The number of casualties among the four-nation coalition forces was close to 8,000.

On the same day, the Fire Nation army entered the territory of the remaining four countries. The huge encirclement was disintegrated within half an hour. Their proud numbers had no effect.

The next day, the capitals of the four kingdoms were destroyed and the daimyo surrendered.

They accepted Konoha's conditions, agreed to give up the power they originally held, canceled the country's independence and integrated into the Fire Country, in exchange for Konoha not exterminating them.

After paying 70% of their treasure, they left the ninja continent on a giant ship and went deep into the sea to find a new habitat.

Also leaving at the same time were the guardian ninjas responsible for protecting the daimyo.

This kind of trivial matter cannot affect the overall situation. Konoha did not stop it, but was happy to facilitate it.

This was a large-scale battle that surprised everyone. It was so grand at the beginning that it seemed like it would take a long time to establish a new pattern in the ninja world.

But when the fighting did break out, it only lasted one day.

The Hidden Leaf Village of the Country of Fire used its unrivaled power to sweep away all enemies, and finally resolved the battle in less than twenty-four hours.

Of course, some people will also think about why the Four Nations Alliance was defeated so completely. The mysterious disappearance of the four Kage became the main reason. No matter how unwilling Ohnoki was, he still became the sinner in the end.

Although the four major ninja villages were defeated, the dissolution of the hidden villages would still take a long time to be implemented slowly. After all, Konoha did not have that many residences.

Therefore... Sunagakure Village was the first to merge. Of course, it was a merger, but it was more like a middle-level exploitation. Although they moved to the vicinity of Konoha, even the ninja certificate was changed to Konoha's ninja certificate.

But they do not hold power and are at a lower level in the Konoha system, so... the real conflict has never been resolved.

The opposition between the major classes seems to have become more obvious, especially the strength of the Sunagakure Village representatives who have just joined Konoha, and there are constant conflicts.

There is no way Konoha can truly accept everyone equally.

Of course, these had no effect on Yakumo, and he began to practice the source sword technique according to the plan, striving to create his own understanding.
