The news of the defeat of the Grass Country spread to the five major countries...
The Iwagakure Village, which was ready to move, immediately stopped and ignored the news from Konoha. However, the Kumogakure Village, which had already moved, wanted to "stop" but it was too late!
Guan Liyuan led more than 400 Federation "ninjas" to defeat 8,000 Kumogakure ninjas under the Frost and Snow Fortress and entered the territory of the Thunder Country...
Although Guan Liyuan did not position them as "ninjas", the Kumogakure Village still understood it this way.
What made the Kumogakure Village the most unable to ignore was that Guan Liyuan summoned five tailed beasts at the same time during the war and besieged Killer Bee...
In the end, Killer Bee was released, but the eight-tailed Ushiki was lost!
The whole thing was full of "incredible". First of all, Guan Liyuan could actually "summon" the tailed beasts? This is more difficult than capturing the tailed beasts and sealing them into Jinchūriki!
And he summoned "five" tailed beasts... You must know that except for the seven-tailed Chongming, the others are all "owned" tailed beasts.
This also includes "the two-tail rescued by the three-tail"!
Of course, the people of the Hidden Cloud Village can guess what happened now - it was definitely Guan Liyuan who summoned the "three-tail" in the Hidden Cloud Village, and then sang a one-man show, otherwise the three-tail would not appear so abruptly!
In this way, the murderer who killed Toshiro and took away the only white eye of the Hidden Cloud Village is definitely Guan Liyuan.
If it weren't for the Fire Country supporting the restoration of the Water Country, and before the disastrous defeat of the Frost and Snow Fortress, the news of the defeat of the Grass Country in one day was received, perhaps the Hidden Cloud Village would really stop and withdraw its troops temporarily. However, now that
Konoha has also gone to war with the Renewal Federation, and secondly, the two tailed beasts, the two-tailed and eight-tailed beasts, have been taken away, and the Frost and Snow Fortress has suffered heavy losses... This situation has completely aroused the warlike Hidden Cloud Village!
The Fourth Hokage and the senior officials of the Hidden Cloud Village, such as Ma Buyi and Samui, are studying how to keep Guan Liyuan in the Land of Thunder...
At the same time, Konoha's reaction is somewhat different.
After all, there was no "pain in the flesh". When supporting the restoration of the Hidden Mist Village, the ninjas of Konoha did not suffer much damage. Even after knowing the news of the Hidden Grass Village, Konoha was still absolutely confident.
However, the matter of the Nine-Tails did shock them!
Because Jiraiya did not send a message back, they still believed that Uzumaki Naruto, as a Jinchūriki, was safe. They just thought of the attack on the shrine where the Uzumaki clan stored masks a while ago, and vaguely guessed that it was the Yin Nine-Tails that was released.
As for the "encountering the Nine-Tails of Yin and Yang" proposed by the Hidden Cloud Village to them, Konoha did not believe it completely - it was probably because the locals of the Hidden Cloud Village had never seen how strong the Nine-Tails was.
Guan Liyuan estimated that when the news of the "war" spread all over the world, Naruto would also find him for a "private chat", so he specially explained it to him first...
In addition to the fact that the will of the universe favored such things that were not easy to explain, and the detailed battle plan, Guan Liyuan did not hide or deceive Naruto, but that long private chat did not get a reply from Naruto for a long time.
However, it is true that for a long time, Konoha did not know that Naruto's Nine-Tails had "escaped".
As for Konoha... the attack on the shrine where the Uzumaki clan stored masks was enough to give them an excuse to go to war!
Of course, if there was no incident in the Water Country, with the current record of the Renewal Federation, Konoha would definitely pretend not to see it. After all, they could even tolerate the blackmail of the Hidden Cloud Village at the beginning, so there was no reason to get too excited at this time.
The main reason is that the royal family and nobles of the Fire Country have been demanding to help the Water Country restore its country and severely punish the rebels, so they hit it off with Danzo who was ready to trample the Fifth Hokage under his feet in one fell swoop...
Uchiha Itachi actually did not agree to go to war with the Renewal Federation, but the "Shadow Faction" suffered too much damage in the "Rain Country" not long ago, and now the position of Hokage is about to be taken away, so it doesn't matter whether he agrees or not.
However, the news of the defeat of the Grass Country in one day did shock the Fire Country, and at the same time, it also regarded the Renewal Federation as a threat.
Although at the beginning, Danzo's target was only the overseas branch, and he just didn't want the northern headquarters to intervene at this time, so he contacted the Hidden Cloud Village. However, when he learned that Guan Liyuan led the elite to kill into the territory of the Land of Thunder, the "Danzo faction" was already considering whether to take the opportunity to attack the headquarters of the Renewal Federation in the north!
At this time, Guan Liyuan had already entered the territory of the Land of Thunder, and pulled out a valley stronghold of the Hidden Cloud Village, and at the same time found some "interesting" things...
"Well? Do you smell it? Such a strong smell of blood..." Guan Liyuan said on the battlefield full of dead bodies.
Hearing this, Taketori Sora scratched his head: "It would be strange if there is no smell of blood? The fighting style of those federal guardians is too rough, look... These are all broken on the ground."
"No, I'm not talking about the smell of blood here, but the natural energy nearby, which has a hint of blood... Forget it, you clean up the battlefield here first, and then rest in place, I'll go over there to take a look." Guan Liyuan seemed to feel something strange.
Just as Guan Liyuan was exploring the Land of Thunder, the federal delegation headed by Shizune had already arrived in Konoha.
Not only is Shizune's identity surprising, but the deputy envoy is also shocking - it turns out to be Uchiha Sasuke, the "fifth Hokage's younger brother" who has been "missing" for nearly two years!
Originally, neither Uchiha Itachi nor Danzo in Konoha wanted to see this so-called "Federation Mission".
Because according to the unspoken rules of the ninja world, the so-called "mission" should be "country to country" or "hidden village to hidden village". Now the nobles of the Fire Country... or the nobles of the five major countries, are most dissatisfied with the renewal of the Federation, because its "ninja country as one" system directly kicked away the nobles. Now
the Federation's envoys have no intention of going to the capital of the Fire Country, and they came directly to Konoha.
Danzo, who wanted the Fire Country nobles to support him to become Hokage, naturally did not want to see this unjust and unsound envoy. Even Uchiha Itachi, at this time when his momentum has dropped greatly, does not want to cause trouble... Even
if Konoha notified in advance that the Federation's envoys would come, although it would not be so embarrassing to kill them halfway, they have made up their minds to ignore them.
But!
When they actually saw the Federation envoys, they found that they couldn't ignore them...
Shizune, Sasuke, and the twelve guards of the Federation entered Konoha without any welcome.
The Konoha high-level officials who learned the identity of the envoys at this time couldn't remain calm - where are the Federation envoys? How come they are all our Konoha ninjas!
That's right, Shizune went on a "long vacation" with Tsunade, so naturally no one dared to count her as a traitor. As for the "missing" Sasuke... because of the Fifth Hokage, he has always been defined as "missing" and has not been declared a traitor. In theory, they are all Konoha ninjas.
And everyone knows that Shizune represents "Tsunade", and "Tsunade" represents the orthodoxy of the Senju clan!
Although the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama, took the lead in abolishing the family name because he hoped that the village would truly become a bridge connecting everyone, rather than just a tool for the various families to compete for power, so that now countless Konoha ninjas without a family name who theoretically have the blood of the Senju clan have a weak sense of family, but... it does not mean that they have forgotten Senju Hashirama!
Not to mention those ninjas without a family name, even among the major ninja families, there are many who miss the first and second generations of Hokage.
However, now "Shizune", who represents Tsunade, actually returned to Konoha as an envoy of the Federation?
What kind of operation is this - if they don't figure this out, even the old foxes in the advisory group will not be able to sleep!
As for Uchiha Itachi... he must meet Sasuke.
All the previous plans became a joke. The Federation delegation was received that day - the kind that was invited by the Hokage, the advisory group, and the Root at the same time...
