- Chapter 325: First Shoot a Susanoo Arrow to Hanzo
The Ninja Alliance Army has numerous members.
Even those who have only crossed paths twice, like Hatake Kakashi and Momochi Zabuza, do not see eye to eye, let alone other ninjas with generational blood feuds.
In this assembly area, curses and grumbling could be heard everywhere. Outwardly, people refrained from sparking conflicts, but behind the scenes, they would still curse a few times.
“It’s all the fault of the Konoha ninjas!”
“They used to rely on that scoundrel Akihara Kagura, and now they can’t handle their own rogue ninjas, causing such a big mess in the ninja world and dragging us in to die!”
“Just say less…”
“That guy wants to destroy the ninja world…”
“…”
Amidst the ninjas’ cursing and grumbling, within the medical ninja unit, two young ninjas wearing glasses, one with blond hair, continued to distribute medical supplies with smiles on their faces. They were Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nono.
Medical ninjas are scarce no matter where they are.
Tsunade wanted to place Kabuto in a special unit, believing his Edo Tensei would be very useful, but Kabuto wanted to protect the Dean.
That was the most important thing…
No matter what happened, the Dean must be protected.
Even if the ninjas outside were noisy and the ninja world seemed about to be destroyed by Akihara Kagura, Kabuto’s mind was focused on one thing: protecting the Dean.
“Kagura…”
Nonō murmured this name, still with a hint of worry on her face: “Kabuto, will this world really be destroyed by him?”
“If everyone thinks so, then let it be…”
Kabuto smiled faintly, not believing the rumors flying around outside: “Let’s just do our duty and protect ourselves in this war…”
Akihara Kagura’s involvement wasn’t needed…
Kabuto knew exactly what he should do.
Just as many years ago, when he misunderstood Akihara Kagura, resulting in almost being killed by Uchiha Itachi…
Now…
Kabuto was very clear.
As long as he protected the Dean, everything would be fine.
“Kabuto.”
Orochimaru’s voice came from behind Kabuto, who smiled and said, “Are you sure you don’t want to join us in dealing with Akihara Kagura?”
“Aren’t I already doing that?”
Kabuto adjusted his glasses and responded with a light smile: “The work of the medical ninja unit is also important…”
“You know what I mean.”
Orochimaru shook his head, continuing to smile: “The Edo Tensei ninja unit would be very useful in defeating Akihara Kagura. Staying here doing these trivial tasks is a waste of your talent…”
“Forgive me for refusing.”
Kabuto shook his head, declining Orochimaru’s proposal.
To avoid further entanglement, Kabuto asked: “Shouldn’t you be attending a meeting now, Lord Orochimaru?”
“That’s a place for big shots…”
Orochimaru replied with a faint smile, a hint of sarcasm on his lips: “Those fools are discussing a battle strategy against an opponent they can’t defeat, while neglecting the real solution…”
“Orochimaru! We have a meeting!”
Jiraiya suddenly appeared, calling out to Orochimaru from a distance.
“That idiot…”
Orochimaru cursed, having no choice but to leave with Jiraiya, unable to continue pestering Kabuto.
Atop a high tower, the leaders of the ninja world were still discussing strategies.
Inside a meeting room, a map of the ninja world was placed in the center.
Nara Shikaku, the chief strategist of the Ninja Alliance Army, pointed at several marked locations on the map with a stick: “According to our deployment, the main forces will be distributed along the borders and coastline of the Land of Lightning, with thousands of sensory unit members dispatched to monitor Akihara Kagura’s movements at all times…”
“We must not underestimate Akihara Kagura’s cunning.”
The voice of the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, was somewhat angry. Upon returning to Rock Village after the last meeting, he saw a scene of devastation and listened to reports from other ninjas.
Onoki began to speak about the lessons learned from Rock Village, saying in a deep voice, “Even if he hadn’t taken action last time, Rock Village would have been overrun by his army…”
“The intelligence I received indicated that he led tens of thousands of White Zetsu to bypass Rock Village’s sentries and borders, appearing directly within Rock Village and quickly surrounding the village…”
“We have learned from Rock Village’s lessons.”
Nara Shikaku nodded, tapping the map with a stick. “From this position, we can mutually support each other at any time. Even if each unit faces an encirclement, other units can quickly come to their aid…”
“However…”
“He will likely come at us openly.”
Nara Shikaku analyzed Akihara Kagura’s mindset and softly explained, “Akihara Kagura and the White Zetsu army are currently entrenched in the Valley of the End. They could march from the Land of Hot Water straight to the Land of Lightning by land…”
“However, we can’t rule out the possibility that they might move by sea and land directly on the coast of the Land of Lightning. Although the coastline is mostly cliffs and not suitable as landing points, according to the intelligence, these cliffs pose no challenge to White Zetsu…”
“Of course.”
“This war will undoubtedly be resolved on land.”
“We will only station a part of the sensory unit on the coastline, allowing them to land and reach our defensive positions. We are unlikely to stop them anyway.”
“The sensory unit will track the enemy’s movements…”
“The hundred thousand White Zetsu will surely split their forces.”
“The surprise attack unit will strike a smaller enemy force to gauge their real strength. The intelligence unit, led by Yamanaka Inoichi, will relay information remotely, and the headquarters will decide whether to change the plan based on this information…”
“If all goes well…”
“The First Division, a mid-range attack unit led by Darui, will be responsible for continuously engaging the enemy and drawing them into our defensive positions;
“The Second Division, a close-combat unit led by Rock Village Jonin Kitsuchi, will engage the enemy directly on the front line after the First Division retreats;
“The Third Division, a close to mid-range combat unit led by Hatake Kakashi, will immediately support in case of unfavorable battle conditions;
“The Fourth Division, a long-range combat unit temporarily led by Nara Shikamaru, will be on standby to support frontline and potential rear battles;
“The Fifth Division, a special operations unit composed of samurai from the Land of Iron and other ninjas skilled in special tactics, led by Mifune from the Land of Iron, will serve as reinforcements from the rear…”
“We also have the medical and guard units, all positioned centrally on the battlefield. If Akihara Kagura’s White Zetsu army attacks the medical unit, any of the units can quickly come to their rescue…”
The Five Kage present all nodded.
In such a short time, nearly one hundred thousand ninjas from the five great nations and other small and medium ninja villages had been organized to this extent by Nara Shikaku. This strategist from the Land of Fire indeed had a sharp mind.
“However…”
“Additionally…”
Nara Shikaku hesitated, his voice becoming grave, “There is one most important and dangerous unit. They are responsible for confronting Akihara Kagura…”
As he said this, his expression became extremely serious, “This unit will face Akihara Kagura head-on…”
Nara Shikaku glanced at Tsunade and spoke softly, “Although Uchiha Madara claims to be willing to help us, we must have a backup force ready to step in at critical moments. This unit will need to risk their lives to stop Akihara Kagura…”
The Kage present fell silent.
This was the most difficult task for the ninja alliance.
If no one could stop Akihara Kagura, it would mean that this war could turn into Akihara Kagura leading the White Zetsu army to annihilate the ninja alliance…
However…
For a Jonin to stop Akihara Kagura, it would be almost no different from a Genin; even the Kage-level experts could only make Akihara Kagura expend a bit more chakra.
“I, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru will join this unit.”
Tsunade immediately volunteered herself and her two friends. She knew Jiraiya would definitely join in, and as for Orochimaru, his opinion didn’t need much consideration.
“I’ll join as well…”
The Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, sighed and said, “The young people are all participating in the war, standing on the front lines to prevent the destruction of the ninja world. We cannot hide in the rear either…”
After all, within the Ninja Alliance, the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, relying on his Dust Release, could be considered the strongest ninja. Hanzo of the Salamander, the Fourth Raikage, the Fifth Kazekage, and the Fifth Mizukage all agreed without hesitation; they too could not back down.
This special unit…
Aside from Jiraiya and Orochimaru, along with Hanzo of the Salamander, it essentially consisted of the strongest Five Kage within the Ninja Alliance. They were the most powerful ninjas of the alliance. If Uchiha Madara did not appear in time, they would use their lives to stop Akiyara Kagura’s massacre.
“Alright.”
“Next, we need to appease those young ones outside.”
Hearing the increasing noise outside, Hanzo of the Salamander said solemnly, “Before the war, we must find a way to eliminate their discrimination against their comrades…”
It was clear.
This was the moment for them to make an appearance.
Hanzo of the Salamander led the Five Kage out of the tower, looking down at the dense crowd of nearly one hundred thousand ninjas gathered below the tower.
At a glance…
It was like an endless sea of noisy people!
In a normal war, anyone seeing such a large-scale gathering of ninjas would not think they could lose. This size of a ninja alliance was enough to solve all the troubles in the ninja world. The Five Kage standing on the tower suddenly felt confident.
“Quiet down a bit…”
“Listen to what this old man has to say…”
Hanzo of the Salamander’s voice carried down from the tower. Although it sounded somewhat old, it was still powerful and resounding: “If anyone could stand in my position and see the scenery below, I think you would probably understand what I’m thinking…”
“A hundred thousand ninja alliance…”
“The most powerful army in the history of the ninja world.”
“When I look at you, I even believe that no one in this world can stop us, no one can defeat us. Any conspirator attempting to stir up war will be crushed under your feet…”
“This time…”
“Everyone is here for peace…”
“Perhaps many have never thought, including those of us who initiated the formation of the Ninja Alliance, that all ninjas in this world would gather here, for the same goal, to protect the world we live in, abandoning mutual hatred and hostility, standing shoulder to shoulder here…”
On a hillside.
Three figures stood on this hillside.
While Hanzo of the Salamander was giving his speech on the tower, Uchiha Madara, accompanied by Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Obito, arrived here.
Uchiha Sasuke had the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, and Uchiha Obito had one eye with the three-tomoe Sharingan and one Rinnegan.
According to the prior plan, Uchiha Madara gave one of his eyes to Uchiha Obito, allowing Obito to use Rinne Rebirth to resurrect the Edo Tensei ninjas under Akihara Kagura in the war, thereby first eliminating Kagura’s subordinates.
“Is that Hanzo of the Salamander?”
Uchiha Madara sat on a rock on the hillside, looking at the old man giving a speech, as well as the ninja alliance below: “I never thought the ninja world would really unite one day, much stronger than during Hashirama’s time…”
“Hmm…”
Both Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Obito nodded.
To be honest…
Even they could not imagine this.
No one in the ninja world would have thought that the Five Great Nations would unite against a common enemy, and many might have suspected that the Ninja Alliance would kill each other even before forming…
But…
All this was beyond everyone’s expectations.
The Ninja Alliance…
Actually we came together.
“Hmph…”
“Even if they’ve formed the Ninja Alliance…”
“A collection of trash is still just trash…”
Uchiha Madara’s eyes flickered, revealing a cold sneer on his face: “Now, use your Susanoo and shoot an arrow at that Hanzo of the Salamander…”
“What!”
Uchiha Sasuke was shocked!
Does Uchiha Madara want to fight the Ninja Alliance now?
Hanzo of the Salamander is the commander of the Ninja Alliance. Assassinating their commander in front of a hundred thousand ninjas is undoubtedly a declaration of war against the Ninja Alliance!
At this time…
Are they going to have infighting within the Ninja Alliance that needs to unite against a common enemy?
Seeing Uchiha Sasuke’s hesitation and struggle over his order, Uchiha Madara sighed inwardly. This kid was ultimately not his brother…
If Izuna were here…
That guy named Hanzo of the Salamander would have already become a porcupine!
“Then let me do it myself!”
A blue Susanoo giant appeared around Uchiha Madara, and an Eight Yasaka Magatama reflecting blue light formed in Susanoo’s hand. He threw it far towards the tower where Hanzo of the Salamander stood, not caring if it would hurt anyone in the process!
~~~
Of course Madara can see whether someone is a Rinnegan puppet or not.
Anyways what will everyone reaction gonna be! Waku waku!!!!
