Listen to advice: I, Sasuke, why should I defect to Konoha?

Kumogakure, Raikage's Office

"Darui, are you saying that you are the only one who survived the 2,000-man surprise attack force? The others were blown to death by the Tsuchikage!!" Looking at his capable subordinate covered in wounds, the Fourth Raikage roared in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

A 2,000-man army was destroyed just like that? This is such a shame! !

Yunyin, have you ever suffered such a huge loss before...

“I, I’m sorry, Lord Raikage.” Darui, who was already ashamed, felt even more ashamed when faced with the Raikage’s questioning and could only apologize weakly.

However, despite this, he hurriedly told the Tsuchikage intelligence, "The Tsuchikage's explosive bomb is very powerful. One puppet bomb is comparable to the Tailed Beast Ball. Therefore, before killing the Tsuchikage, we must not engage in large-scale combat against the Iwagakure."

"Comparable to the Tailed Beast Ball!" In an instant, the secretary Ma Buyi cried out in horror upon hearing this.

With the two villages having lost their jinchūriki, the Fourth Tsuchikage, who possesses the destructive power of the Tailed Beast Ball, is simply a human-shaped tailed beast. This is not good news for the Hidden Cloud Village!

“Is that so? What a troublesome guy…” The Fourth Raikage then became serious and treated the Fourth Tsuchikage Deidara as an equal.

"But fortunately, Captain Dodai reacted immediately and launched a surprise attack. He has now occupied the coastal border of the Land of Earth. Lord Raikage, we must send more troops forward as soon as possible, otherwise by the time Iwagakure reacts..."

After hearing the report from his secretary Ma Buyi, the Raikage hesitated for a moment and immediately made up his mind. "Order the Tutai troops to hold their ground and wait for reinforcements, and gather the village's reserve troops to declare war on Iwagakure!"

The current situation is no longer something he can change!

Kumogakure would never abandon their comrades on the front line, and Iwagakure would not sit still and wait for death.

As expected by the Raikage, almost at the same time as he issued the order, Tsuchikage Deidara also overruled the elders and assembled his troops to attack Kumogakure.

The next day, Konoha

"What? Kumogakure and Iwagakure are at war?" In the Hokage's office, Tsunade couldn't help but exclaimed when she heard the report from the Anbu.

Although Sasuke had known that Kumogakure was going to invade the Land of Earth, she had not expected it to happen so soon! Under the pressure of Akatsuki, the Raikage and the Tsuchikage actually started a war without considering the overall situation...

"Hokage, the Sand Village has just sent a message that they will send an envoy to discuss the formation of an alliance to fight against Akatsuki and Amegakure." Shizune followed closely, "Now please order Konoha to enter a state of war and refuse to accept non-essential commissions to leave the village."

"Is that so..." Hearing Shizune's suggestion, Tsunade nodded in approval.

During the war, each village did have its own requirements for out-of-village missions. Although not all were rejected, 99% of the commissions were rejected.

The remaining 1% are special commissions based on the interests of the village or war considerations. They are special missions that cannot be refused!

"Also, the Daimyo is a little worried about the current situation in the ninja world. I hope that the Hokage will go to the Daimyo's mansion as soon as possible to report the specific situation and discuss the support of war materials."

"Tsk, what a hassle! I have to take time out to meet that old Daimyo at a time like this..." Tsunade couldn't help but hold her forehead and complain when she heard that. She was very disgusted with this kind of formalism.

"There's nothing we can do about it! Originally, the Hokage's advisor Jiraiya could have done the job, but the way he's acting now..." Shizune said as if it was normal, and her eyes were filled with blame when she thought of Jiraiya's miserable condition.

If Tsunade-sama hadn't injured Jiraiya-sama yesterday, there wouldn't be such trouble now...

"Hmph, don't mention Jiraiya to me!" Tsunade's face darkened immediately after hearing this. "After meeting the Sand Village envoy, I will go to the Fire Country Daimyo myself."

Then, Tsunade turned her gaze to the Anbu, "Notify Tenzou, the Anbu will do their best to collect intelligence on Akatsuki, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure. Any unusual movements must be reported to me immediately."

"Yes, Lord Hokage..." The Anbu immediately took the order and left in an instant with a whoosh.

"By the way, I have to arrange for Sakura and Karin to practice in the next two days, and you will be responsible for the daily affairs." After making the arrangements, Tsunade found an excuse and left.

Leaving Jingyin alone, disheveled in the wind...

At the same time, at the Konoha training ground.

"Huh? What happened to you, you lecherous sage? Were you attacked? Was it Akatsuki? Or some other terrorist organization?" Seeing Jiraiya limping and tied up in a miserable state, Naruto's eyes bulged and he screamed.

"Hehe, this is not important, not important..." Jiraiya's face turned red when he heard that, and he smiled awkwardly when he thought of what happened yesterday.

Suddenly, this familiar style of painting made the worried Naruto's eyes change, and his eyes narrowed slightly to squeeze out a slit, "Good, lustful, fairy, you are not going to peek again and get caught!"

"What are you talking about? I, an immortal, would never do such a thing..."

"Eh? Then why did you become like this! I was clearly planning to do some hard work and practice well today, how can you guide me in my practice like this, you lecherous immortal..."

"Idiot, I knew you didn't care about me!"

"Damn it, how long will it take for me to finish preparing to go find Uncle Octopus? You old pervert, why are you still doing that at this hour..."

"What? You said I'm a pervert? Humph, I won't practice today! I even hired an elite ninja to help you develop your wind attribute..."

"Tsk, what elite ninja? Wait, you mean help me develop the training of wind attribute property changes!!" Suddenly, Naruto, who was bickering, suddenly reacted and asked in surprise.

The expression changed so quickly that it was like the Sichuan opera face-changing. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a flattering smile and looked at Jiraiya pitifully...

"Idiot." Looking at Naruto's disgusting expression, Jiraiya sighed and turned his head to the side, "Then you can come out now!"

The next second, a young man in white appeared with a whoosh...

"Sa, Sasuke, why is it you!!" When Naruto saw the person coming, his instant reaction was not surprise but shock.

Sasuke, isn't he proficient in Fire and Lightning Ninjutsu? When did he become proficient in Wind Ninjutsu as well?

"Why can't it be me?" Looking at the panicked Naruto, Sasuke raised his lips slightly and looked mischievous. "Teacher Kakashi is not here, and as the captain of Team 7, it is also one of my responsibilities to guide my subordinates in their training..."

"No, I mean you actually know wind-attribute ninjutsu? Or have you completed the training of nature change?" Naruto subconsciously refuted.

Damn it, it’s the captain’s fault again!

Sasuke, what kind of hard training did he go through in the past two years? How come he even mastered his attribute ninjutsu...

How can I fix it? Wow~~

"Nonsense, how can I guide you in your training if you haven't completed the transformation of wind attribute?" Sasuke said with contempt, and without giving Naruto a chance to refute, he formed seals with his hands.

His wind escape technique was a gift from Danzo! The mere change in the nature of wind attributes was naturally integrated into his mind.

"Wind Style: Vacuum Wave..."
