Escape From Konoha Chapter 613

  Chapter 613 Hope

   On January 15th, it was still freezing cold.

  Although this season is not the coldest time of the year, there are still many days to go before the beginning of spring.

  The "Fourth Ninja World War", which caused fear in the hearts of all countries, broke out at the most sudden time, but only half a month has passed. This ninja war, driven by the ninja villages of the four major kingdoms of fire, water, earth, and wind, was like the wind and fire when it broke out, and now it has come to an abrupt end.

   But the real end is naturally impossible, because according to the movement of Yanyin Village, they have dispatched 10,000 ninjas to the western front of the Land of Earth, with a tough stance to take back the lost homeland by force. As an alliance, the three ninja villages of Konoha, Sagakure, and Kirigakure also expressed support. More and more ninja troops were dispatched to the front line. Although they did not start fierce wars with small countries as the battlefield, this gesture is no less than telling the country of ghosts that the war they provoked has not yet come to an end.

  The country of ghosts as the 'beaten' side also uses the same strategy. A large number of ninjas are transferred from the territory and settled in the border.

  Especially in the newly captured land in the west of the Land of Earth, there are 3,000 elite ninjas, 10,000 non-ninja soldiers, 900 armored artillery vehicles, 150 flying ninjas, and enough living and medical supplies for tens of thousands of troops to live for several years.

  Using this as a reference, maybe the kingdom of ghosts has also made plans for a long-term stalemate with the kingdom of earth.

   As the three allies of Yanyin, Ninja Village was also treated solemnly by the kingdom of ghosts.

  A military unit composed of ninjas and non-ninjas, one step ahead of time, came to the border area belonging to the ghost country forces, garrisoned tightly, and made preparations for one enemy four again.

  Although all parties have temporarily subsided, but according to the development of this situation, the war may not break out again.

   At that time, I am afraid that it will no longer be the same as before. Maybe the end of the war will be accompanied by the demise of a big country or even more big countries.

   This is by no means a good thing for a small country near a war zone.

  Especially as Konoha's only way to attack the country of ghosts—the country of birds, its daimyo is helplessly watching all these things happen, and can only hope that these big countries can live in peace.

  Maybe the supplies of the ninjas are still sufficient at present, but if the stalemate continues, sooner or later they will "source materials locally" in the country of birds, harm the civilians and towns of the country of birds, plunder the living supplies of the country of birds in the name of conscription, and force the nobles of the country of birds to provide them with funds... After all, the past encounters in the country of rain have already proved that all of this will actually happen, and it is not unreasonable malicious speculation about these big countries.

  A big country with the ability to make rules must also have the ability to break these rules. It's just whether they want to break, not whether they can.

   "Why haven't the negotiations come yet? I don't want to stay in this ghostly place anymore."

  The air in the western sea area of ​​Oni Land is very cold.

   You can even see huge glaciers floating on the sea in the distance.

  Yakura walked to the high border of the island camp and looked at the endless sea in front of him.

  The rest of the sea area is not covered by dense fog, only thin fog, so you may see glaciers.

  However, as long as you look to the east, you will find that the western sea area of ​​the ghost country is shrouded in enchantment, covering the entire sea area with thick fog.

   If you enter rashly, you will be noticed by the fleet of the ghost kingdom, and then disappear mysteriously.

  A ninja who can achieve this level is definitely not a ninja performing the enchantment technique that releases dense fog. At least hundreds of ninjas perform it together, plus a huge energy core that can continuously provide chakra. This scene is possible.

   It is impossible for a kingdom of ghosts that can build a steel fleet group not to pay attention to naval battles.

  Although it can be done with Kirigakure's ability, but now the attacker is not the kingdom of ghosts. As the defender, the kingdom of ghosts can hunt in it better.

  Yakura is thinking, if he really fights against the ghost country, how will this situation be resolved?

   Sure enough, it is still best to use the power of the three tails, and throw a few rounds of tail beast jade to explore the way.

  Or let the ninjas of the Snow Clan advance all the way, freezing the sea all the way, causing obstacles to the fleet of the ghost kingdom...the premise is to know the sailing route of the ghost kingdom's fleet.

   After all, once it is detected, the kingdom of ghosts can attack from a distance of several kilometers, instead of fighting ninjas close up.

  "Generally speaking, it won't be so fast, and the situation may change at any time. Maybe they will continue to fight and give up the possibility of negotiation."

   Standing next to Yagura, Terumi Mei spoke.

  Her pair of pupils also swept towards the western waters of the ghost country, and she spoke calmly.

   "That old man Tuying, is he so decisive?"

  Yakura rubbed his reddened nose, and exhaled white cold air from his mouth.

  When I think of that Tsuchikage in the conference room, furious like Raikage, smashing the tables, chairs and cups to pieces, and being furious, I can't help but want to laugh.

  At first, he wanted to pick up the leak in the back, and let Konoha, Sagakure, and Kirigakure go up to test it out, but in the end, he found that he had suffered the most losses... This Tsuchikage's mind was very clear from the beginning.

  In other words, the rest of the shadows can also be seen, but the country of fire and Konoha, as the initiators, must be the main force to exchange fire with the country of ghosts. In order to regain the land of the past, Sand Yin will inevitably intensify the attack, and the water country side will be the main force to attack the ghost country because the people in the country are rioting everywhere.

   As a result, the Kingdom of Ghosts caught the Kingdom of Earth by surprise, and quickly occupied part of the land in the west of the Kingdom of Earth. Whether it is Tuying or the daimyo of the Land of Earth, they must be itching to hate the Kingdom of Ghosts at this time.

   "If it is before retiring, it is not impossible to die with the enemy and shine until the last moment."

   Terumi Mei said.

   Until the last moment, no one knows what Yan Yin will do at this time.

  Anyone can see that Ohnoki has few years left in Tsuchikage's position.

"Yeah?"

  Yakura doesn't care about this.

  In this four-nation alliance, all parties have suffered losses, and it is nothing more than a matter of severity.

  Even Kirigakure has lost, and the loss is the biggest, because he, Mizukage, is about to step down, so it is naturally regarded as Kirigakure's 'loss'.

   "Next, I'm going back to China to deal with the daimyo. Everything here, including any negotiations in the future, will be your sole agency. From now on, you will be Five Generations Mizukage."

   There was no serious matter, and no Jonin meeting was called to discuss it. In the calm, Yagura handed over the throne of Mizukage very casually.

   After speaking, he turned around and headed back towards the camp.

   There's a 'get it all done and go on vacation' kind of feeling.

  Terumi Mei was also not too surprised, but nodded calmly.

  As Mizukage's assistant for these years, she was later promoted by Yagura to act as Mizukage's agent.

  Even Kirigakure's Anbe was directed by her assistant a few years ago.

  It is only a natural result to hand over the position of Mizukage in this way.

   Wait until the matter here is over, then return to Kirigakure to make up for the succession ceremony, and formally issue a notice to all countries.

  Accompanied by a feeble whimper, the huge toad fell to the snow covered with pools of blood.

   Around it, there are hundreds of toads that are the same size as humans, or slightly larger, and the size of a single-room house.

  None of these toads survived the battle.

   On the blood-stained snow, the figures of three giant cats stood there very eye-catchingly.

   Around the three giant cats, there are hundreds of heavily armed ninjas from the Ghost Kingdom, responsible for cleaning the battlefield.

   "Sorry, Baihuo, I accidentally robbed your prey."

  The orange-red cat has a black belt wrapped around its body, and a large black box on its back, similar to some kind of instrument, I don't know what it is for.

  It said to the white giant cat next to it in a light tone.

   "Chi Huo, if you want to apologize, you must at least take out the fine wine you treasure to be sincere."

  Bai Huo snorted coldly, his voice was crisp, but it sounded very cold, it was undoubtedly a female cat.

   "Stop arguing, you two, there is still work to do next."

  The black cat Yehuo came over and glanced at the large dead toad.

   This huge toad that was originally in Mt. Miaomu and was White Fire's opponent has now turned into a corpse.

   It is the general of Mt. Miaomu, Toad Hiroshi, the brother of its enemy, Toad Bunta.

  The double knives controlled by Toad Guang broke into several pieces, and they were randomly inserted obliquely on the surrounding snow, and they could not fall down despite the wind.

   "It's a pity that you have to find a way out for your companions at the last moment of the battle and never bow to the enemy... However, since you are an enemy, there is nothing you can do. Chi Huo, give them the last mercy, at least let them enjoy peace forever after death."

  Ye Huo looked at Toad Guang's corpse. The body was covered with burn marks and a huge **** mouth torn open by sharp claws. Under the cold wind, the blood flowing out there had already clotted into lumps.

   "Let me come again?"

   Chi Huo grumbled in dissatisfaction.

  As the Four Heavenly Kings of the ninja cat clan, it was placed in Yehuo's hands at a slight disadvantage at the beginning, and it was used by it.

  Although the Ninja Cats do not believe in the rule that the strong are respected, the strong do have certain priority in this respect.

   "Boss Yuhuo is not here, among us, only you are the best at fire escape."

  Yehuo said so.

"knew."

   Chi Huo did not refute this sentence, the orange-red hair shone like a flame, and the temperature began to warm up with the surrounding snow.

  He walked to the place where the toad corpses had been collected by the ninjas of the ghost country. A large number of toad corpses piled up around the corpses of Toad Hiroshi, forming a hill.

  After the Ninja of the Ghost Kingdom retreated to a safe area, it lowered its body slightly, and the black iron box on its back made a loud noise, and two dark pipes emerged from the black iron box, pointing to the 'hill' ahead.

  As it was injected into the chakra, the flames suddenly lit up deep in the two dark pipes connecting the black iron box, and as the air buzzed, a straight torrent of flames was quickly jetted out from the two pipes, strafing the 'hill' in front.

  The raging flames surrounded the 'hill', the blood thawed in the scorching heat, and flowed down, spreading a red carpet on the snow.

  A large number of corpses burned together, the flames soared into the sky, and could not be extinguished in the bitter cold wind, and even the air was deformed in the flames.

   "Do you want to continue chasing and killing? If you continue to chase, you will reach the border of the Kingdom of Fire."

  The only female cat, Bai Huo, licked the white hair on her forelimbs, and looked into the distance with a pair of bright eyes.

   On its exposed claws, there were remains of Toad Guang's blood and minced flesh.

  Yehuo raised her head gracefully and looked into the distance. There was still a vast expanse of snow, and she didn't know where it would stretch.

   "Let's go back. It would be troublesome to get caught in Konoha's encirclement. Moreover, after chasing here, the remaining toads are no longer a concern."

  Yehuo shook his head, it would be very unwise to continue chasing and killing.

  Mt. Miaomu has been destroyed. Due to the loss of vitality, the land there has changed from a so-called paradise to a barren and barren land. At least for many years, it is impossible for animals to live there.

  Mt. Myogi is finished.

   "In this way, maybe our ninja cat clan may also have the possibility of aspiring to the new Holy Land."

   At this time, Chi Huo said such a sentence.

  The fall of Mt. Miaomu may not have much impact on the human world, but it is enough to cause an uproar in the world of psychic beasts.

  The Ninja Cat Clan who participated in this operation will definitely gain momentum in the world of psychic beasts.

  Those weak psychic beasts might also come to find the ninja cats and seek their protection.

  Although compared with Ryuchi Cave and Shibone Forest, the background of the Ninja Clan is very shallow, and the only human cats who fully comprehend fairy arts are Yuhuo, the leader of their Four Heavenly Kings.

   In this way, the Ninja cat clan has enough time to develop, accumulate their own background, and become a new holy place for psychic beasts.

   "That way I'll be busy."

  Nightfire doesn't have a Redfire view.

   Forming a holy place is the goal that all groups of psychic beasts desire.

   It's just that this goal is not easy to achieve.

   Among the ninja cats, apart from the Four Heavenly Kings, there are not many who can fight.

  The attack on Mt. Miaomu this time, if it wasn't for the assistance of the Kingdom of Ghosts and Ryuji Cave, if the Ninja Cat Clan went to war with Mt. Miaomu, they might not even be able to enter the gate, and the entire army would be wiped out outside.

  Whether it was the big toad Yansu who almost swallowed their boss, or the two immortals, or the large number of large toads, and the countless toad guards with special abilities, all proved the strong foundation of Mount Miaomu.

  If you want to accumulate heritage and become a holy place, the time must be calculated in at least a hundred years.

   Not long after, the three of Yehuo turned and left, and the accompanying ninjas of the ghost country also returned, leaving only the mountain of corpses still burning on the snow. Before the corpses were turned into ashes, the fire would not disappear.

   "Sorry, lecherous fairy, it's all because of me that big toad fairy..."

  Seeing Jiraiya who returned to Konoha, Naruto blamed himself, as if he hated himself for rushing into the battlefield in Mt. Myogi regardless of safety.

  If it wasn't for his safety, the Great Toad Immortal would not have failed at all, and Miaomu Mountain would not have been destroyed because of this, causing countless toads to die in the battle.

   Thinking that the entire Mt. Miaomu might be destroyed due to his own mistakes, Naruto felt that he could hardly breathe.

   Zilai didn't finish his sentence, nor did he reprimand Naruto, but just patted his head with a painful expression on his face.

  Especially when seeing Fukasaku Sage and Shima Sage looking lonely in the living room of Naruto's home, there was a deep pain on their faces, more of the same self-blame as Naruto.

  If he can be stronger, or if he doesn't fall for the treacherous tricks of the Oni Nation...he can get out of the frontline battlefield and go to Mt.

  Whether it is him or Konoha, they are actually calculated by the kingdom of ghosts.

  The role of his sannin is not only for the country of ghosts to better annihilate Konoha's vital forces, but also to keep him and Konoha's main force in the country of bears, making them unable to support Mt. Miaogi, thus affecting the balance of the battle on Mt. Miaogi.

   After all, in such a battle, even if it is a slight advantage, it may have a huge tilt because of Konoha's joining.

  The kingdom of ghosts is precisely to prevent this, making Konoha deeply trapped in the battlefield of the bear country, unable to extricate itself.

  Originally as Tsunade of Hokage, he could go to Mt. Myogi.

  However, the quality of the medicine sent by the medical department to the frontline had quality problems, so she, Hokage, had to wait among the leaves to be wary of the existence of the "inner ghost", and lost the best time to support Mt. Miaomu.

   "If you feel self-blame, then practice hard and avenge the death of the Great Toad Immortal. Simple self-blame is useless."

   Zilai also said the same.

   "Yes, I understand." Naruto took a deep breath, cheered himself up, looked at Jiraiya again, and asked, "Speaking of which, the lecherous sage, why did the kingdom of ghosts attack Mt. Miaogi? Was this war really started by us, Konoha?"

   Naruto asked this question at this time.

  He is very confused about the current situation.

  For example, why did the kingdom of ghosts attack Mt. Miaogi?

  Why did Konoha unite with other countries to launch a war against the kingdom of ghosts?

   It all confuses Naruto.

   Jiraiya looked straight into Naruto's eyes.

   "This is for the stability of the ninja world. When you were on a mission before, you passed by Ikeno Country, and you should understand what happened there. The people there rebelled and overthrew the daimyo's rule, causing the current Ikeno Country to fall into a terrible civil war. The instigator is the Ghost Country."

  Hearing this, Naruto thought of that restless night.

  Countless figures rushed into the Daimyo Mansion of the Ikeno Country, and the samurai who defended the daimyo fell in a pool of blood one by one. The unarmed daimyo's family members, old and young, women and children, were also imprisoned by the militia.

  Such a picture is very shocking to Naruto who has lived in a peaceful life for a long time.

  Although the battle scene was far less shocking than the Mt. Miaomu battlefield this time.

   "The land of waves, which you visited earlier, was also invaded by the land of ghosts, where a civil war broke out and countless people died. And these are just the tip of the iceberg... In many small countries that you can't see, such scenes are also staged. Under the instigation of the kingdom of ghosts, tragic civil wars broke out. The reason why the alliance of four major powers attacked the kingdom of ghosts is precisely to curb the aggression of the kingdom of ghosts in various parts of the ninja world and restore stability to the order of the ninja world."

  Jirai also said so.

   "What about Mount Miaomu?"

  "The Great Toad Immortal once said that Chiba Shiraishi, the military minister of the Oni Land, would cause enormous trauma to the ninja world and set the flames of war on the entire ninja world... Such predictions have come true one by one. I think it is precisely because of this that the other party led the ninjas from the Oni Land to join forces with Ryuji Cave to attack Mt. Myogi. In addition, it has something to do with you."

"I?"

   Naruto was confused, what does it have to do with him.

   "Because you are the savior in the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage, the son of the prophecy who can bring peace to the ninja world. The actions of the Oni Kingdom and Chiba Shiraishi prove that the prediction of the Great Toad Sage is true. Then, as the son of the prophecy, defeating the Oni Kingdom and Chiba Shiraishi in the future will also become a reality. Therefore, the other party intends to act first and destroy the Great Toad Sage and you as the son of the prophecy in advance."

   Zilai can only guess like this.

  The real reason for the Kingdom of Oni's attack on Mt. Miaomu this time is not very clear to Zirai.

  But the most reliable basis is that Chiba Shiraishi of the Ghost Kingdom was afraid of the prophecy of the giant toad sage, and Naruto in the prophecy would become the ghost kingdom and his nemesis, so he planned the Mt. Miaogi battle.

  As long as the giant toad sage and Naruto are eliminated, no one can restrain the kingdom of ghosts in the future.

   This is the most reasonable result based on Jiraiya's prediction based on Myogi-san's prophecy.

   Ignoring the dumbfounded Naruto, Jiraiya also walked towards Fukasaku Senjin and Shima Senjin.

   "Boss Fukasaku, Mrs. Shima, next... What are your plans next?"

   Zilai also looked at the distraught look of the two immortals, and couldn't bear to ask.

  The destruction of Mount Miaomu was undoubtedly a huge blow to the two immortals.

  The homeland that has lived for eight hundred years is destroyed. One can imagine the grief of the two immortals at this time.

   Immortal Fukasaku smiled wryly, and replied: "We have no idea about revenge. The next step is to collect the remnants of Miaomu Mountain and go to a place where no one will be disturbed, and reset our lives."

  Although most of Mt. Miaogi's high-end combat power was wiped out by the ninjas of the Oni Land and the White Snake Immortal of Ryūchi Cave, the strength of these two immortals is enough to protect themselves in this dangerous ninja world.

  At least, most of Miaomu Mountain's immortal art inheritance is recorded in their minds, and a paradise can be re-opened for them to cultivate their health and rest.

  In addition to those that cannot be taken away, important props such as the contract documents of Mount Miaomu are also well kept in their hands.

   Jilai also wanted to say something, but after thinking about something, he still didn't say it, just nodded.

   "As for the matter of immortal art, I will stay in Konoha for the time being and guide Naruto to continue his practice. As long as he enters the immortal art mode, it is the same wherever he practices immortal art, and there will not be much difference. As for the fake immortal charms... I only had time to take some away when I left. The rest of the fake immortal charms should be collected by the kingdom of ghosts at this time."

  Senjin Fukasaku took out five brand new pseudo-Senjin Talismans from his pocket, which were filled with a large amount of Immortal Chakra. Once filled with Immortal Chakra, ten seriously injured people could be healed.

   Jiraiya also solemnly took over these pseudo-immortal talismans. In the future, they may become important props for Konoha to deal with the kingdom of ghosts.

   "Speaking of which, there is one thing that I am quite puzzled about. How did Qianye Baishi defeat the Great Toad Immortal?"

   I thought about it again and again, and asked this question.

  Sensei Fukasaku shook his head at this.

   "I'm not very clear. In that state, the Elder Master, it can be said that King Kong is not bad. It is not an exaggeration to say that the anti-strike ability has already surpassed that of the Tailed Beast. There should be no ninjutsu or weapons in this world that can cause fatal injuries to the Elder Master..."

   And the result was that the Great Toad Immortal lost inexplicably.

  The last time I saw him, even a trace of chakra disappeared from his body.

  The symptoms seemed to be similar to the results of Immortal Shima being stabbed by the existence called Chiko in the past, but Sento Fukasaku still felt that there was something different.

   But what it is, Fukasaku Sage doesn't know.

   Zilai had no choice but to give up. In terms of intelligence, further investigation is needed.

   "In the future, we may not be able to provide any useful help to Konoha, and everything after that can only rely on you to move forward. Remember, before Naruto grows up, don't rashly start a war with the kingdom of ghosts."

   Having said all that, Shen Zuoxian felt that he had exhausted his benevolence and righteousness.

  After teaching Naruto Senjutsu, he left Konoha with his wife and the remnants of Myogi-san, re-opened a paradise in the ninja world, and no longer interfered with the rights and grievances of the human world.

  Ji Lai also nodded heavily.

  In this war, it is true that they are a little impatient.

  Although it is also one aspect that Kirigakure is holding back, the most fundamental reason is that their understanding of the ghost country is too shallow, which leads to major mistakes in the arrangement.

   Jiraiya looked at the silent Naruto, this is the only hope for the future against Oni Nation and Chiba Shiraishi.

  In the future, even if you pay the price of your life, you must protect it.
