Chat group from Naruto

While Fang Zhou was concentrating on studying the second stage of the Shadow Demon inheritance, the situation in the ninja world was changing.

When the [Death Battle Arena] first started, almost all the chat group members watched the battle, except for a few group members who had important matters at hand and could not leave.

The chain reaction caused by this affected almost the entire ninja world.

The first is that Konoha took advantage of the opportunity when the high-end combat power of Yun Ninja Village was almost wiped out, and quickly raided Yun Ninja Village and destroyed it in one fell swoop.

Although some Anbu had escaped, and there was also a group of Kumo ninjas led by military advisor Todai outside to resist the invasion of the Iwa ninjas, but in any case, the Kumo ninja village had been completely eliminated from the ninja world.

Konoha, who reacted the fastest, undoubtedly gained the biggest profit.

In terms of money alone, we have harvested hundreds of millions of taels in cash, as well as materials worth twice that amount, as well as a large number of ninjutsu, secret techniques, and some information about the secrets of the ninja world that are of inestimable value, which has greatly enriched our experience. Konoha's database.

However, it is obviously impossible to monopolize this benefit.

Although Konoha is strong, it is impossible to start a war with the other three major ninja villages while hunting down the remnants of the Kumo ninja.

After all, income is just income. There is still a process to be completely transformed into strength.

Perhaps after digesting this profit, Konoha will have enough strength to fight against the entire ninja world on its own, and even completely unify the ninja world.

But it is absolutely impossible for the other three major ninja villages to give Konoha this time.

Anyone in a high position may have various shortcomings and may even seem unworthy of the position he holds.

But no matter how they appear externally, there is no way that these "superiors" are real fools.

If they cannot get a share of the proceeds from Kumo-nin's demise, or to put it more bluntly, if Konoha is allowed to monopolize this profit, the other three major ninja villages will sooner or later follow in the footsteps of Kumo-nin.

Almost everyone knows this.

Without any contact, the Iwa ninja, the Sand ninja, and even the remnants of the Kumo ninja immediately reached a delicate balance in a tacit understanding.

The most obvious point is that the Iwa Ninja and Dodai, who were fighting happily, immediately ceased fighting after the news of Konoha's raid on Kumo Ninja Village, and each retreated dozens of miles, leaving a sufficiently wide "buffer zone".

After a brief exchange through the messenger, the Iwa ninja left only a small number of chunin and genin to strengthen their control over the "occupied area", and all other large forces withdrew.

However, instead of retreating to the Kingdom of Earth, they made a circle, along the border between the Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Iron, and pressed towards the border of the Kingdom of Fire.

At the same time, the newly assembled troops in the Iwa Ninja Village, led by Ohnoki, put pressure on Konoha from the direction of the Rain Country.

Military Advisor Dodai also gave up the war in the north, arranged for his ninjas to be broken into pieces, and fought a guerrilla war with the Konoha ninjas in the vast southern land of the Kingdom of Thunder.

Ninjas who are flexible in movement and have excellent individual strength are good at guerrilla tactics.

Laying traps, sneak attacks, assassinations, and sabotage behind enemy lines are all tasks that ninjas are good at.

Even if there is a clear gap in strength, guerrilla warfare will make the enemy extremely uncomfortable.

Of course, based on the current strength comparison between Konoha and Kumo Ninja, all Kumo Ninja can really do is to make Konoha feel uncomfortable for a while, nothing more.

What kind of trouble they really want to bring to Konoha, or even the pressure to withdraw their troops, depends on the other three major ninja villages.

Without any contact, Suna Ninja Village also mobilized a large number of troops to head towards the Country of Fire.

And just like the Iwa Ninja Village, Kazekage Rasa personally led the expedition.

At the same time, Luo Sha's messenger also arrived at Kirigakure Village and briefly described what happened on the mainland.

There was no deal, no request, no alliance agreement, just telling the truth about what happened in the Kingdom of Thunder.

Before a huge crisis called "The Rise of Konoha", the three major ninja villages, and even the remnants of the Kumo ninja village, united together without hesitation.

In addition to the frightened Oniden clan, several major blood successor families in Kirigakure Village took action one after another. Clan leaders such as Kaguya Sukeo, Minazuki Lan and others personally went into battle and led the family's blood successor ninjas to the Land of Waves to assemble and attack Mu. Leaves exert pressure.

In just a few days, the Fire Nation has fallen into a situation of embarrassment from all sides.

However, Konoha obviously won't just wait to be beaten.

This kind of relationship is not a special case of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The first person Konoha contacted was not any of the "four major" ninja villages.

Jiraiya had just escorted the first batch of trophies back to Konoha. At the request of Namikaze Minato, he intercepted one-third of the trophies worth about [-] million taels, went to the capital of the Land of Fire, and contacted Tsunade. Joined the Thousand Hands Clan.

"What does it mean?"

Tsunade looked at the large amount of property in front of her and frowned.

"That boy Minato, I hope you can return to Konoha."

Jiraiya pointed to the carts of belongings and said, "These are the funds for the Senju clan to rebuild their family."

The Senju Clan is not small, in terms of numbers and strength, it is much more powerful than the Uchiha Clan.

However, Senju, who has now regained some of his strength, is no longer a part of Konoha.

The last time I offered help, it was just an employment transaction.

If the Senju clan can truly be brought back to Konoha, among other things, Konoha will have at least two more strong men with shadow-level strength.

Among them was Tsunade, the number one medical ninja in the ninja world.

In war, the value of a top medical ninja goes without saying.

With Tsunade's medical ninjutsu skills, even taking into account the time factor, she can at least reduce her own casualties by more than one-third.

This is a number that is enough to affect the balance of victory and defeat!

What's more, there are a large number of jounin and chuunin in the Senju clan, and among them there are even several "geniuses" who have awakened to the realm of wood escape blood inheritance.

Even if the "political significance" is not considered, the practical value alone is enough to make anyone excited.

Unfortunately, in the face of huge wealth, although Tsunade was very moved, she still shook her head and said: "We are very happy here and don't plan to go back. What's more, the Uchiha side..."

Tsunade actually saw the situation very clearly.

Returning to Konoha is not a good choice for the Senju clan.

The grievances and resentments accumulated by the Senju and Uchiha clan over the years are enough to write a multi-million-word novel.

Return to Konoha and continue the internal strife with the Uchiha clan?

It would be better to develop peacefully in the capital of the Fire Nation.

Even the daimyo has some blood of the Senju clan flowing in his body. The development environment is much better than that of Konoha.

"It's not a problem on the Uchiha side."

Jiraiya shook his head and continued: "Minato and Uchiha Fugaku have discussed this matter. The Uchiha clan will not create any obstacles or conflicts in the return of the Senju. In fact, the current Uchiha clan leader is a typical pigeon faction, and one of Watergate’s strongest supporters.”

"That's not possible." Tsunade continued to refuse: "We, the Senju clan, are living well here and have no plans to change places."

"If I say..."

Jiraiya hesitated for a moment, raised his head, and stared into Tsunade's eyes seriously: "Minato is from the Tsunade clan, and he has awakened the Wood Release?"

"What did you say?!"

Tsunade's eyes widened, and the chakra in her body moved a little faster: "Wooden Release?!"

Jiraiya and Tsunade have known each other for many years, and he can tell what she is thinking at a glance: "I promise you, it is definitely not an evil human experiment like Orochimaru! It is the real awakening of the bloody successor! Can't you even believe me? ?How could I allow that to happen in Konoha?!"

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Tsunade's clenched fists involuntarily relaxed, and she said half-jokingly: "That's right, you were the one who brought out Orochimaru. You and Sarutobi-sensei were in a lot of trouble at that time. "

After a pause, Tsunade asked again: "Is it really Wood Release?!"

"Yes."

Jiraiya nodded and explained: "Under the order of the second generation senior, the Senju clan was disbanded. Your clan was unwilling to accept this order and came to the Land of Fire. But in Konoha, many people still gave up." Many people with the surname "Senju" have even become commoners. I think Minato should be the descendant of this group of people. Because of his thin bloodline, he has never been able to awaken. It is only now that he has achieved a breakthrough in strength. Awakening the blood inheritance limit."

There is nothing wrong with Jiraiya's analysis.

The only problem is that Namikaze Minato's so-called "Wood Release" is not really a natural awakening, but relies on the redemption of points in the chat group.

Of course, the first-class Wood Release is not expensive.

With just a few thousand points, you can awaken the Wood Escape Blood Succession Limit.

Of course, the price for ordinary group members to redeem points is much more expensive than Fang Zhou's own redemption.

After all, it is exploitation and oppression. If a sum is deducted from the task reward and another sum is deducted when redeeming the reward, isn't this "profit" coming out?

For the same redemption item, the redemption price for ordinary members of the chat group is at least ten times that of Fangzhou.

What these points can be exchanged for is only the "seed" of a Wood Release, which is roughly equivalent to the level of a Magatama Sharingan. How far it can develop depends on yourself.

At least, this most basic form of Wood Release cannot bring any actual combat bonus to Namikaze Minato.

The only value of the Wood Release Seeds redeemed by these thousands of points is to make the Senju clan members of the Fire Country recognize Namikaze Minato's identity.

With that said, Jiraiya took out a piece of wood the size of a palm and handed it to Tsunade: "Think about it carefully. The Uchiha clan already knows that Minato has awakened the Wood Release, but they have not changed their position and are still Minato's strongest support. One of them. If you also come back, Konoha will be stronger than ever."

"It's really Mudun..."

Tsunade carefully felt the power and vitality contained in the wooden block. After hesitating for a while, she looked up at Jiraiya: "I need to discuss this matter with the clan elders. You can stay here for a few days. Give you an answer."

"I'll leave someone here. After you make a decision, let him send a message to Konoha."

Jiraiya smiled and said: "As for me, given the current situation, I can't leave Konoha for too long. The current situation is very bad. If I'm not here, just relying on the two boys Minato and Fugaku will definitely not be able to survive. .”

Tsunade is not an innocent little girl. When Jiraiya came to invite the Senju clan to return to Konoha, Tsunade knew that Konoha was in great trouble.

The trouble is even so big that if the Senju clan doesn't go back, Konoha may not be able to survive.

In fact, with the Senju clan's intelligence network, it is not difficult to understand the current situation in the ninja world.

Apart from not understanding what happened in the chat group and the [Death Battle Arena], the Senju clan knew very well what Konoha was facing today.

Although the top management, headed by Raikage, disappeared for unknown reasons, it could even be concluded that they were dead.

——This is a conclusion inferred from Konoha's subsequent actions.

Although Konoha gained huge profits from the demise of Kumo Ninja Village.

However, Konoha did not have time to digest these benefits.

The three major ninja villages are ready to make a move, and the remnants of the Kumo ninja are not willing to let their biggest enemy rise peacefully.

It can be said that what Konoha is facing now is a situation of being besieged on all sides.

But from what Jiraiya meant, the situation seemed to have collapsed beyond imagination?

Tsunade hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "How serious is it?"

In the past, Konoha has not encountered situations where it was besieged by several major ninja villages.

It can even be said that in every ninja war, Konoha will have at least one against three.

As for one-on-four, that is even more normal.

"It's different from before."

Jiraiya waved his hand: "In the past, the enemies were not united. They were said to be one-on-three or one-on-four. In fact, they were facing enemies from two directions at the same time. But now..."

After a few seconds of silence, Jiraiya continued: "They all know what Konoha got from the Cloud Ninja Village. Once Konoha digests this, there will no longer be any obstacles to the unification of the ninja world. For Iwa Ninja, For the Sand Ninja and the Mist Ninja, this is not an invasion war, but a matter of life and death."

Tsunade was much more politically sensitive than Jiraiya, who was born as a civilian. When he heard this, he immediately understood the problem: "So, this time we have no allies, and there is no room to divide and disintegrate the enemy!"

Tsunade didn't notice that she had subconsciously used the adjective "we".

After all, I was born and raised in Konoha, and the best memories in my life are all related to Konoha.

Even if he was disappointed with Konoha and left, how could he forget it so easily?

Jiraiya noticed that Tsunade's attitude seemed to have softened, but he did not dwell on it. He just continued what she said: "It's not that bad. We also have a strong ally, at least we can He alone supports the offensive in one direction. In addition, Minato plans to cede some of his interests and win over an ally. As for whether it is an Iwa ninja or a Sand ninja, the village is still discussing it. The benefits we have gained from the Kumo ninja are large enough. Since the whole family cannot afford it, Just find someone to share it with, one less enemy, one more ally, and the situation is not so bad that it is unbearable."
