Start by meeting Xiaonan and save the goddess of the ninja world

At night, Minato successfully sneaked into the Hidden Cloud Camp, turned on the Sage Mode to sense the surroundings, and after determining the direction, he moved towards the center.

Inside the joint tent, the Fourth Raikage Ai and the Mizukage Kondo Takashi were discussing the division of the spoils.

Ai said with a smile: "16 pairs of Byakugan, 13 pairs of Sharingan, we have to divide them equally!"

"Of course. We in Kirigakure will never let you do a business that will lose you money. What does Lord Raikage decide to do in the next battle?" asked Kondo Takashi.

Ai crossed his arms and said, "Let's not rush to attack Konoha. Let's eliminate this group of ninjas first. After all, we have just started!"

Kondo Takashi asked, "How is the plan going?"

Ai smiled and said, "Don't worry, they are definitely more anxious than us and will definitely take the bait!"

Kondo Takashi nodded. As long as Iwagakure showed signs of sending troops, their plan to invade Sunagakure could be launched, and the curtain was slowly opened!

Not far away, Minato's heart moved. He used the Sage Mode, which could super-amplify his senses while concealing his body. He could hear everything from more than ten meters away.

It seems that Kirigakure and Kumogakure have formed an alliance, and their next moves must be reported to the village as soon as possible to prevent misjudgment!

Whoosh! He disappeared from the spot and returned to the Konoha camp.

Towards Kushina who was training, he said, "I'm going to go see Nara Yoshino-sama. I have something to tell him."

"Okay!" Kushina nodded and continued to practice. The super-powerful battle during the day aroused her fighting spirit and deepened her relationship with Kurama, making her control of power smoother!

She believed that after the tempering of battle, she would be able to perfectly control the power of Jiu Lama.

In the command tent.

Minato looked at Nara Yoshino seriously and said, "As you expected, the Ice Release Ninja is indeed the Mizukage Kondo Takashi. They have formed an alliance with Kumogakure and have made a careful plan!"

He told the other party everything he heard and analyzed it together.

Nara Yoshino stroked his chin and said, "From this perspective, our defense on the coast is probably useless. They are just trying to tie down our forces!"

Minato nodded. Konoha had set up defense lines on land and on the coast. The only possibility was that Kirigakure concealed their identities and joined the Kumogakure army.

Boom! A flash of lightning flashed through Nara Yoshino's brain, and he quickly asked: "Minato, will Iwagakure also take action?"

Minato looked at the other person in surprise, and could only see a face full of fear and panic.

He thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. Apart from the fight for the Grass Country, we haven't had a large-scale conflict with Iwagakure for a long time. I don't know what they are thinking!"

Nara Yoshino said seriously: "It is very likely! Iwagakure itself is not a wealthy place. After the battle with Kumogakure, they have already recovered. Ohnoki will definitely not let go of this opportunity!"

"Minato, you must report this information to the Hokage immediately, request reinforcements, and redeploy your defenses!"

Minato stood up and said, "Okay, don't worry, sir!"

Whoosh! As soon as he finished speaking, Minato Namikaze disappeared, using Flying Thunder God to rush to the coastal defense line of the Land of Fire.

On the coast of the Land of Fire, the defense here is commanded by Jiraiya to resist the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village.

What puzzled Jiraiya was that in the past few days, only small groups of ninjas had carried out the attacks, and no large-scale Mist Hidden Ninja troops had appeared. Despite this, they still did not dare to be negligent and had to be on guard!

Inside the tent, Jiraiya was leaning over the table to arrange defenses, while Orochimaru, standing beside him, crossed his hands, resting his chin, looking relaxed.

Jiraiya raised his head, looked at Orochimaru, and asked, "Orochimaru, do you think this battle is strange? Kirigakure doesn't look like it's going to start a war!"

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "I don't care about these. Instead of worrying about these, I'd rather focus on my experiment!"

Jiraiya curled his lips and said nothing. Ever since Tsunade left, their team of three had completely fallen apart. Orochimaru was devoted to his experiments and didn't care about other things. He was also busy teaching his apprentices, so they had already parted ways!

This time the command fell on him. It was he who insisted on bringing Orochimaru, who was doing the experiment, along in order to repair their relationship. Now it seems that it will be difficult!

Jiraiya sighed inwardly and was about to continue observing the map when he felt something strange and took out Minato's marked kunai, which was given to him in advance in order to communicate information.

Whoosh! Minato appeared in an instant, looked at Jiraiya, and asked, "Teacher, how is the battle here?"

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment, then he responded, "The coastal defense line was only attacked by a few dozen Kirigakure troops, and there was no sign of a large-scale force."

Then he asked, "What's the matter? Did something happen on the Hidden Cloud battlefield?" Orochimaru also looked over.

Minato said seriously: "The Kumogakure has a lot of troops, and many strange and powerful ninjas have appeared. After investigation, we found that it was the Kirigakure troops led by the Third Mizukage!"

"What! Are you saying that the main force of Kirigakure was taken to the direction of the Kumogakure battlefield?"

Jiraiya was shocked. If that was the case, then the other party's war was premeditated. No wonder!

Minato nodded and said, "And not only that, Lord Nara Yoshino also thought that Iwagakure would also participate in the war, so he asked me to come here to verify it."

“Now it seems that this may well happen!”

Jiraiya's mind raced, he grabbed Minato's shoulder and said, "You go back to the village immediately and tell the Hokage about this, and have him redeploy the defenses everywhere!"

Minato nodded and responded, then instantly disappeared from the spot.

Jiraiya paced back and forth, thinking about Kirigakure's plan. Meanwhile, Orochimaru looked at the flickering candle flame with deep eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

At night, the Hokage's office was still brightly lit and Sarutobi Hiruzen was still working.

Ever since his body was attacked by the iron sand of the Third Kazekage Kono, he has rarely lived at home. He is old and can't stand the tossing and turning, so he should live in peace!

“Hahaha, what a great figure!”

In the lounge, Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at the crystal ball in front of him with a smile. The picture showed a bathhouse in the village. The stunning scenery stimulated his blood pressure to soar!

Knock, knock, knock! There was a knock on the door, followed by the voice of the guarding ninja, "Hokage-sama, Namikaze Minato wants to see you for something important!"

Zi! Sarutobi Hiruzen dispersed the ninjutsu, put away the crystal ball, and said solemnly: "Minato, let him in!"

After a while, Namikaze Minato entered the room and saw Sarutobi Hiruzen sitting on a chair. He said apologetically, "I'm sorry to disturb the Hokage so late at night, but there is something urgent that I have to report!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded slightly and said, "Sit down first. You must have something to say since you came back from the front. Don't be anxious and talk slowly!"

Minato sat on a chair and said seriously: "Hokage-sama, we found the Kumogakure army, which contains a large number of Kirigakure ninjas. The Third Mizukage Kondo Takashi is also there. After investigation, they have formed an alliance!"

Then, he told him everything about the situation on the battlefield, the intelligence he had gathered, the strange things happening on the coastal defense line, and Nara Yoshino's conjecture.

As Minato spoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned. After a moment, he said, "This information came at a very timely moment. Otherwise, we would still be kept in the dark."

Sarutobi thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I will arrange another 2,000 ninja reinforcements for you, and Jiraiya will not move to prevent Kirigakure from advancing straight in!"

"As for Iwagakure, I'll find a way!"

"Great!" Minato was delighted. This arrangement was very reasonable.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his pipe and asked, "How strong is the Jinchūriki of Kumogakure?"

Minato responded, "Very strong. I can't say Kushina completely overwhelmed them, but we can only say they were evenly matched. The opponent studied the tactics in advance and avoided the powerful force of the Nine-Tails!"

Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke, "Is that so? If the Jinchuriki of Kirigakure and Iwagakure show up, we'll have to find another way!"

Minato scratched his head and said, "There's nothing we can do. Each village has done very in-depth research on Jinchūriki. After all, the power of Jinchūriki is much stronger than that of ordinary ninjas!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen put away his pipe and said, "Minato, thank you for your hard work. I will take care of these things!"

Minato stood up and said respectfully, "Hokage-sama, I will be leaving now!"

After the communication, Minato immediately used the Flying Thunder God Technique and returned to the tent thousands of miles away!

Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the window, looked at the bright moonlight, and murmured: "The village will still win this war, right, teacher?"

The night is as cool as water, and the silver light spreads all over the earth, covering it with a layer of white frost.
