Naruto Big Draw

Chapter 281

More than a week has passed since the Ninja Court incident. The storm gradually subsided and Kirigakure Village fell into a false tranquility. However, thousands of miles away in the interior, the war was once again burning.

In just three days, fierce battles broke out between Sand Hidden Village and Kumo Hidden Village with Konoha Village in the River Country in the west and the Death Forest in the east, creating considerable pressure on Konoha.

At the same time, the Sandaime Raikage, who led a large force of several thousand people and attempted to attack Iwagakure Village, once again shattered the negotiation table during negotiations with the Iron Country. The reason was that the leader of the Iron Country, General Mifune, stood firm. Taking the position of a neutral country, he sternly rejected Raikage's alliance treaty and ordered Raikage to quickly withdraw from the territory of the Iron Kingdom.

As the supreme leader of a sovereign country, Mifune's status is equivalent to the daimyo of other countries. Of course, in the Iron Country, a bushido country, he is often called a general, so he is definitely qualified to issue an expulsion order against Raikage.

Bushido is prevalent in the Iron Kingdom and focuses on cultivating samurai. It has many powerful samurai with superb strength who can compete with Jonin. The best among them can even fight against the top ninjas. Its domestic military strength is quite impressive.

Since the establishment of the Ninja Village, the Iron Kingdom has pursued a policy of neutrality, and the ninjas have also reached an agreement not to take action against this country. Therefore, no matter how unhappy the Sandaime Raikage was, he would not dare to rashly tear up the neutral country treaty and destroy the rules that had lasted for more than forty years.

However, the geographical location of the Kingdom of Iron is very delicate. To the north is the Kingdom of Snow, an ally of the Kingdom of Fire, and one of the major employers of Konoha Village; to the east is the Kingdom of Fields, which is weak and has no ninja village. Currently, Occupied by the army led by the Sandaime Raikage, his sovereignty was trampled but there was nothing he could do; to the south was the most powerful country in the world, the Land of Fire; and to his west, the next destination of the Sandaime Raikage, was Taki Ninja village.

If they want to attack the Country of Earth, Kumogakure's army must cross the Country of Moon, Country of Tang, Country of Tian, ​​Country of Iron, and Country of Taki. Among them, Moon and Tian Country are just small countries, and Kumogakure's The army didn't dare to say a word when they ran over it. Yuno Country belonged to Kanaten's territory. Kumogakure Village was unwilling to conflict with Kirigakure, so they paid the toll honestly, and then divided their troops here to attack southwest. Konoha's Valley of the End and Forest of Death, all the way to the west to attack Iwagakure Village.

However, here in the Kingdom of Iron, the Sandaime Raikage encountered trouble. Admiral Mifune was not willing to intervene in the war of the ninja world, even if it was to take advantage of the situation.

What's more, in the west of the Iron Country, there is a more troublesome country, the Taki Country.

The country of Taki, the Ninja Village of Taki, although it is not as prominent as the Five Great Nations and the Five Great Ninja Villages, it is indeed the strongest country in the second tier of the world. There is no one. The Taki Ninja Village back then even had the strength to participate in the first generation of Five Kages. The conference divides the tailed beast's feast, and it wouldn't be wrong to say that it is the sixth largest ninja village.

It can be said that the attitude of Taki Ninja Village directly determines the difficulty of Kumogakure Village's attack on Iwagakure Village.

From the current point of view, the Taki Ninja Village has lost its strong military strength due to its weakening strength year by year. It also maintains an ambiguous attitude towards the Ninja World War. This is barely good news for the Third Raikage.

At the very least, we can strive for a situation where the two parties cannot help each other.

Kumogakure and Iwagakure are old enemies. As for when the two villages started to become completely hostile... I can't tell. Anyway, the accumulation of blood feuds for generations has formed this kind of unsolvable feud. situation.

Almost the entire ninja world was stirred up by Kumoyin Village. After nearly twenty years of dormancy, Kumoyin Village's military strength reached its historical peak. The number of ninjas exceeded the 10,000 mark for the first time. Suddenly, troops were sent out to attack Konoha southward. , Attacking Yanyin in the west, he has the spirit of swallowing up dragons and tigers and sweeping the world.

Seeing the stalemate battle situation, in the far east, Kirigakure Village, shrouded in heavy fog all year round, finally couldn't sit still.

The voices of wanting to join the war and fight gradually became louder.

As a result, the election of the Fourth Mizukage began quickly, and the list of candidates was released overnight. Hinawa Yuya, Kanna Tokiomi, and Kannaten became popular figures.

Almost every day, people come to visit them, wanting to hear their political leanings to determine which side they want to stand on, or they propose themselves, trying to gain a higher position in the new Ninja Village regime.

In the current situation, Kanna Tokiomi has the highest prestige and the widest popular support in the village, but the military strength he controls is the weakest; Hinawa Yuya controls considerable military power and has the support of some families and people; and finally Kanna Ten , it has some advantages in terms of national government, reputation at home and abroad, and troops stationed overseas.

But these are all false. The election of Mizukage is completely different from the other four major ninja villages. Only one aspect is considered, strength.

In a simple sentence, the one who can best fight is Mizukage. This is what the official book of formations says. In fact, I also think it is ridiculous...

Therefore, people are generally optimistic about Kannaten, because he is a man who can kill the Sandaime Mizukage head-on, and his strength has been proven.

As for Kanna Tokiomi, his work ability is far better than his own martial arts. He can become a candidate for Mizukage mainly because of his assistant status.

According to the laws of the Ninja Village, the assistant can directly take over the work and power of the Mizukage when necessary, and then directly succeed the Mizukage after reporting to the Daming Mansion and obtaining the consent of the entire Ninja Village.

However, this time in Kirigakure Village, there are still many people who are capable and qualified to run for Mizukage, so Tokiomi can only win one candidate position. He is not for power, but to prevent some people with ulterior motives, Kanaten, from bringing Kirigakure Village into the abyss.

The focus of the battle between the Fourth Mizukage and the Fourth Mizukage is who is stronger between Kannaten and Hinawa Yuya.

This is very simple. According to the usual practice, Kirigakure Village left enough time for the three people to promote their own governance concepts, so that they could recruit some subordinates in advance, and then after the next regime was established, they could quickly fill the positions of various departments. vacancy. In addition, these subordinates can also help their boss fend off challenges from some minions, or carry out some ulterior assassination activities.

Of course, the highlight is a competition ten days later.

"Do you want me to kill him?"

In Kannaten's office, Kakuzu asked with a sneer.

"That kind of guy, if he is allowed to be fully prepared, he will be troublesome."

Kannaten is sitting on the sofa with calm eyes. In front of him, the ninjas who have united around Kannaten, such as Ye Cang, Fugu Ghost, Kakuzu, Rurijiu, Danno Maki, and the heads of the three major families, can reach Everyone came to the scene to make suggestions for Kannaitian.

"No need." Shenaitian thought for a while and said, "Our goal has never been a certain person, but the entire old era."

"What's the meaning"

"It means that anyone who does not agree with our views and opposes us is an enemy," Kannaitian said.

Ye Cang said noncommittally: "Is that Rilun Youzai someone you agree with?"

"No." A smile appeared on Kannaitian's face, but cold words came out of his mouth, "He is just a sacrifice, the sacrifice I plan to use to commemorate the old era."

The heads of the three major families looked at each other silently, their thoughts boiling in their hearts.

Kannaitian's ambition and strength have grown faster than they can control, and he is no longer the puppet leader they once pushed to the forefront.

"If Kirigakure Village doesn't elect a new Mizukage, the chaos will never end. No matter what kind of fighting behavior it is, it is allowed, and this is exactly what I want." Kannaten patted his clothes He stood up and said, "This Mizukage election will turn into a farce, I guarantee it. So don't worry about what will happen to Hinawa Yuya, we can just develop our strength secretly."

"Yakura and Kakuzu are coming with me."

Taking Ye Cang and Kakuzu to the rooftop, Kanaten turned his back to them and said: "Prince Ren seems to have something to ask me for help. I have to go to Daming Mansion first. Then the affairs of the Ninja Village will be settled." Please, you two."

"How long are you going?" Ye Cang asked.

"I don't know." Shenaitian said casually, "It depends on how troublesome the situation in Daming Mansion is."

Ye Cang hesitated and said: "Nichiwa Yuya, there really doesn't need to be anything done?"

Kannaten waved his hand and said: "I have my own plan, but it is from the Intelligence Department. I heard that Sugimoto Kazunari has been very active recently."

"We have been checked many times." Kakuzu said coldly.

"What is he checking on us?"

"Accounts"

Kannaiten fell silent immediately. Although he did not do anything specifically to the village's accounts, this was a very bad sign.

Sugimoto Kazunari seemed to be going all out and wanted to grab Kannaten's painful leg from every possible angle.

"Then take action."

After a long time, Shennan Tiancai spoke.

"According to the original plan, assassinate him."
