Madara, let's change the world together!

The village's new fighting force is almost exhausted, and students keep graduating from the ninja academy and going to the battlefield.

Although the battlefields between Tsunade and Sunagakure, and between the Uchiha and Kirigakure, were relatively stable, the fighting strength of Kumogakure and the manpower of Iwagakure were truly terrifying, causing Hiruzen Sarutobi a great deal of trouble.

Now, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally has leverage to negotiate with Onoki!

Danzo obeyed the order and secretly went to Iwagakure, where he had a conversation with Onoki.

After a month of communication, Danzo brought back good news in October of the 46th year of Konoha.

At the same time, the battle between Iwagakure and Konoha was noticeably less intense than before.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi dispatched Minato Namikaze to the battlefield against Kumogakure, which completely stabilized the situation.

But every day, a large number of ninjas are still dying, and Konoha's strength is being rapidly depleted.

By January of the 47th year of Konoha, Onoki still hadn't taken any action, which infuriated Hiruzen Sarutobi so much that he almost wanted to send Danzo over again.

Just then, he received news that another batch of Cloud Village ninjas had rushed to the battlefield.

And Iwagakure finally took action.

Onoki, that extremely cunning fellow, finally decided to avenge the defeat at the hands of Kumogakure during the Second Shinobi World War, and sent 10,000 Iwagakure troops straight to the Land of Lightning.

Coincidentally, at this time, the Cloud Village was in a state of extreme weakness, with four-fifths of its people on the battlefield.

"Damn Onoki!"

"Damn Danzo!"

Upon learning the news, the Third Raikage was so enraged that he smashed the table to pieces.

In order to prevent the village from suffering huge losses, he challenged 10,000 Iwagakure members all by himself.

The final battle lasted three days and three nights. The Third Raikage died from exhaustion, and many people from Iwagakure also died, resulting in a complete stalemate.

The Fourth Hokage A and Killer Bee, who had received news of the Iwagakure attack, had rushed back to Kumogakure, only to find that the Third Raikage was dead.

The Fourth Raikage, A, wept bitterly and accepted the position of the next Raikage. He then threw Killer Bee into the Cloud and Thunder Gorge and told him to focus on training his Tailed Beast Balls. He instructed him to launch the Tailed Beast Balls from a distance if there was any danger and never get close.

From then on, Killer Bee resumed his training with the Tailed Beast Ball and was placed under house arrest.

But the war is not over yet.

Instead, the hatred escalated into a three-way conflict between Konoha, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure.

In June of the 47th year of Konoha, Fugaku Uchiha took his four-year-old son to the battlefield and showed him the cruelty of the ninja world.

From that moment on, Itachi Uchiha began to ponder the meaning of being a ninja, the meaning of the village, and the meaning of peace.

It was from this time that he began to have a relationship with his clansman, Uchiha Shisui, that was like that of brothers.

As time passed, Sunagakure gradually became unable to resist Konoha's counterattack, and with the interference of a small group of Kirigakure troops, they were completely defeated.

The battle between Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Konoha gradually came to a halt due to the heavy losses suffered by all three sides and the lack of new reinforcements.

As for Kirigakure, it only engaged in a protracted battle of fire and water with the Uchiha clan, and neither suffered significant losses.

This left the Uchiha completely baffled as to what Kirigakure was even doing there.

When Kirigakure inexplicably began to retreat, the Uchiha guarded the border, wary of another Kirigakure attack.

It wasn't until the end of December in the 47th year of Konoha, just before the new year, that the war finally came to a halt, and the Kage of the various villages began to haggle and negotiate terms with each other.

During this process, Bai Miao, as the Mizukage, simply sent each of the Kage a letter stating that Kirigakure was neither victorious nor defeated, and then did nothing else.

The other village leaders just couldn't understand what was going on in the head of this Fourth Mizukage.

Despite the Hidden Mist ninjas being so strong, they simply provoked the troops of each village and then withdrew.

What's the meaning of this, Hidden Mist Village?!

Let's not talk about victory or defeat. Hiruzen Sarutobi is thinking that as long as there is no more war, anything is fine.

Since a temporary ceasefire had been declared and everyone had withdrawn their troops back to the village, he called everyone back to take stock of the losses from the war.

Therefore, the commanders at the front lines all received orders to retreat.

On the battlefield in Sunagakure, Tsunade was reading the letters sent by Kiyoi Gen this week in a simple tent.

On the small table, the glass bottle filled with roses still looked beautiful.

"Lady Tsunade!"

Shizune's voice came in, and Tsunade looked up to see Shizune entering the tent.

Shizune, who turned fifteen this year, has not only grown taller, but her body is also developing better and better. Just by looking at her chest, you can tell that she has been absorbing nutrients very well in recent years.

"The Hokage has given the order that we may return!"

Silent looked delighted.

Although her temperament remained unchanged after being ravaged by war, her eyes were quite different.

Can we go back now?!

Tsunade clenched her fist in surprise.

In other words, once I go back and finish everything, I can go to Sunrise City!

She's really tired of this battlefield!

If it weren't for her sense of responsibility towards Konoha, Tsunade truly wouldn't want to be a ninja anymore.

"it is good!"

"I will immediately order the troops to withdraw!"

"You and Hong pack our things, and once we get back, we'll set off for Chu Ri City!"

"Ok!"

Silent nodded vigorously; sure enough, everyone had thought of the same thing.

After that, it took half a month for the Konoha ninja forces to gradually return to Konoha.

just

As countless bandaged, lifeless ninjas passed through the gates of Konoha, no one could muster a smile.

Like Kakashi, Obito Uchiha, and Rin Nohara, who just returned;

Another example is Sakumo Hatake, who hovered around Kakashi throughout the war and even evaded Minato Namikaze's senses.

Also included were Uchiha Mikoto, Shizune, and Kurenai Yuhi, who were participating in the Shinobi World War for the first time.

They all felt the cruelty of war once again.

Kiyoi Gen, who had been closely following the Ninja World War, felt the reality even more acutely.

Inside the Mizukage's office, he sat on the sofa, looking at the battle report in his hand, and habitually shared his thoughts with the fourteen-year-old Terumi Mei beside him.

"Xiao Ming, there are too many reasons for war, but there is only one outcome."

Kiyoshi sighed.

"Civilians are displaced, and ninjas are homeless."

"The consequence of killing is often the breeding of more hatred, which leads to more killing."

He recalled how the Third Shinobi World War in the original story led to Obito Uchiha's fate and the tragedy of the old Akatsuki organization.

“Innocent children can be turned into villains under the baptism of war.”

"Even righteous organizations can turn into butchers who treat life like dirt under the ravages of war."

Mei Terumi sensed the sadness in Gen Kiyoi's heart and gently took his hand.

Perhaps no one who turns to the dark side is at fault; the fault lies with this terrible ninja world.

But in reality, everyone is at fault, because this terrible ninja world is made up of everyone present.

"Xiao Ming".

Kiyoshi Gen gently placed his hand on her head.

"I will end this tragic cycle as soon as possible!"

Mei Terumi looked into Gen Kiyoi's eyes, her pupils shimmering with tears.

Meanwhile, at the summit of Wanghai Hill in Hatsuhi City, Uchiha Madara once again arrived.

It's not far off!

The time is not far off!

He clenched his fists, his purple Rinnegan staring at the dense dark clouds in the sky.

Then, he grasped a deep blue chakra katana in his hand.

Now, he doesn't like this sky.

Ding!

The massive amount of chakra formed a giant blade of energy that cleaved through the rolling dark clouds in the sky.

Dark clouds spread outwards under the shockwave, and sunlight shone directly onto Wanghai Hill through the gaps.

The pillar of light rapidly expanded, gradually enveloping the entire Sunrise City.

People who were about to collect their laundry looked at the azure sky in surprise, feeling quite puzzled.

Then a group of people began to shout about a miracle, because they had just learned from the caravan that the war between the great powers had ended in a short time.

Doesn't the sunlight breaking through the darkness symbolize the arrival of peace?

Ban looked up, and sunlight fell on his head like powder.

He raised his arms high, as if basking in the sunlight.

"The war will end in our hands!"

Those eyes, reflecting a pair of reincarnation-like eyes, shone with dazzling confidence.

Chapter 221 Konoha's Pyrrhic Victory

A gloomy atmosphere hung over Konoha, and many people wept because their family members had died in the war.

Konoha's economy has also suffered to some extent.
