Konoha: The road to the gods starting from Kannabi Bridge

Chapter 72 Madara-sama

After all, the news of Sansho Hanzo's death could not be concealed. The leaderless Rain ninjas could not implement strict intelligence control at all. The Fire Country, Earth Country and Wind Country, which directly bordered the Rain Country, immediately closed them down. received the news and made different decisions based on it.

Konoha chose to sit back and watch.

Considering that the war between the east side and the Kiri ninja is still going on, and they are not willing to take advantage of the fire for the Iwa ninja, they decided to continue to sit back and watch the struggle between the Iwa ninja and the Kozhi clan. As for the Amegakure village that lost Sansho Hanzo... ···It is impossible to directly annex the Rain Country, which will stimulate the Iwa Ninja and Sand Ninja to fight for their lives.

And to be honest, the Country of Rain does not have any valuable resources. The appeal of Konohagakure Village is to win over Rain Hidden Village and turn it into a vassal force similar to Yugakure Village. If this goal is difficult to achieve, then Amegakure Village must also be an independent walled grassland like Sogakure Village, and cannot become a bridgehead for the Iwa Ninja or Suna Ninja to send troops.

to this end,

The ninjas of Konoha Anbu launched corresponding actions under the command of the Sandaime Hokage.

Suna Ninja's choices are almost the same;

The recently ascended fourth generation Kazekage Rasa has no interest in intervening in the fight between the Kozhi clan and the Iwa ninja. He has just ascended the throne and is busy consolidating his power. Moreover, Sunagakure Village suffered huge losses in the war. He had the confidence to fight another battle with the Iwa Ninja, so it was better to just watch this matter.

As for the Amegakure Village without Sanshouyu Hanzo... He sent an envoy to the Amegakure Village. Although he explained that there was little hope for the Amegakure Village to join him, he could not say that he was doing nothing. He should try. You still have to give it a try. Of course, the current focus of Sunagakure Village is still internal affairs!

at this point,

There is no doubt.

Iwagakure's words... As a person involved in the incident, or can be directly said to be a party, after the Sandaime Tsuchikage Onoki held a small-scale high-level meeting, the two troops left Iwagakure Village at about the same time and headed towards The South advanced at full speed.

One of the troops was to take over the fallen Akaishi and others to continue the pursuit of the Kozhi clan. They had already paid so much price, and it was obviously impossible to say that they would just give up on the pursuit of the Kozhi clan;

The other army went to Yuyin Village. Their purpose was to win over Yuyin Village and turn it into a vassal. In the future, it could serve as a bridgehead south to the Country of Fire or the Country of Wind. Of course, if the successor leader of Yuyin Village did not If you are wise, force is also an option.

For a time,

Many people's eyes are focused on the Rain Country, which did not participate in the Third Ninja War.

but,

What’s interesting is that Konoha, Iwa Ninja and Suna Ninja are all staring at the Hidden Rain Village. As for the Akatsuki Organization, a small organization that is unknown outside the Land of Rain... no one takes this organization seriously. Because the intelligence collected from Amegakure Village clearly indicated that it was Kozhi Tamazhang who killed Sanshouyu Hanzo.

Although the intelligence also mentioned that the Akatsuki organization played a role in this process, almost everyone did not think that the Akatsuki organization played a key role.

all in all,

The Kingdom of Rain will probably experience another bloody storm next time.

----

Deep underground in a forest in the east of the Land of Fire,

It is a spacious space like a palace.

The lamp burned quietly, illuminating the old man's old and decaying face sitting on the stone chair. His white hair like crane feathers fell behind him, his face was covered with knife marks and folds left over by the years, and his skinny body had almost no traces of wrinkles. There is no muscle or fat left, just a layer of skin covering the bones.

If it weren't for the regular rising and falling of the chest, it would look like a corpse, not a living person.

"Master Spot."

sound,

Coming from the side.

A half-black and half-white thing shaped like a pitcher plant penetrated from the stone wall. The white half of the face kept shouting, "Madara-sama, something happened, something big happened!"

"What happened?"

The corpse-like old man sitting on the stone chair raised his eyes and glanced coldly at the yin and yang face approaching.

<divclass="contentadv">"It is the land of rain."

Bai Jue was frothing at the mouth and spoke quickly: "Something happened in the Land of Rain. Sansho Hanzo died. The situation in the Land of Rain has undergone earth-shaking changes. The Akatsuki organization where Nagato is now is involved. Got caught in this vortex."

"...Sansho Fish Hanzo?"

The old man raised his sparse eyebrows and said, "That kid from Yuyin Village! Is he dead? He was also short-lived."

"Huh? That old man is already over sixty, doesn't he have a short life?"

Bai Jue muttered.

The old man ignored Bai Jue's muttering, but thought for a moment with his eyebrows, and then ordered: "The kid in Yuyin Village is dead, and the situation in the Country of Rain is out of control... Black Zetsu, from now on From now on, we will pick a few more powerful Bai Zetsu to watch in front of Nagato. There is no need to do anything more, but we must make sure that the Rinnegan is foolproof."

"I see."

The black half face responded.

"By the way, since you are here, by the way, how is the current status of our candidates?" The old man did not dwell too much on the matter of the Kingdom of Rain, but asked about other things.

"It's still in the adaptation period, but... I don't feel very optimistic. I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."

Black Zetsu replied.

"Since we are not optimistic, have the new candidates been determined?"

"It's confirmed, Uchiha Hatoha and Uchiha Shinichiro. These two teenagers are currently fighting with the Mist Ninjas on the eastern coast of the Land of Fire. I have arranged for Bai Zetsu to follow them, and I will bring them here if I find a suitable opportunity. base."

"...Can't that Uchiha Obito find a chance?"

the old man asked.

"You still remember that candidate!"

"That's the best piece of rough jade."

"...That young man is indeed very talented. He is a double magatama when he opens his eyes... It's just that he really can't find any opportunities. That young man's strength has improved very quickly since he opened his eyes, and these I have been staying in Konoha for a long time, and I can't find a suitable opportunity to bring him back." Black Zetsu was also quite helpless.

"······Pity."

The old man sighed softly.

Among the candidates, the kid named Uchiha Obito was undoubtedly the best one in his opinion. Unfortunately, the White Zetsus were really useless and failed to bring Uchiha Obito over as he wanted. , on the contrary, the candidates at the bottom of the list brought one body after another, and then dragged out one body after another.

"Hei Jue, move as fast as possible, living like this cannot last forever..." the old man ordered.

"I see."

Black Jue responded,

next second,

The figure like a pitcher plant sank into the ground, and the old man was the only one left in the huge room, sitting alone on a stone chair, closing his eyes, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
