Wind Country, Sand Village.

The sun had just set, and the temperature in the desert began to drop rapidly.

Under the moonlight, the huge Sand Village was deserted, and not a single figure could be seen on the dark streets.

Under the village's curfew, every household had their doors tightly shut. The entire Sand Village was eerily quiet, with only the sound of cold wind mixed with sand blowing past.

The villagers of Sand Village had all witnessed the changes in the village over the past three days.

Coupled with the recent changes in the ninja world, everyone could sense that war was coming.

Although they were filled with worry, as members of the ninja village, they understood that this was inevitable.

Sand Village, One-Line Sky.

Hundreds of ninjas were already waiting here, fully prepared.

They were divided into three formations, with five people in each team.

Leading the left formation was Yekura, and leading the right formation was Migawa.

The surroundings were heavily guarded, and no irrelevant people were allowed to approach.

As for the formation in the middle, a dark figure descended from the sky.

All the ninjas knelt on one knee and shouted in unison.

"Lord Kazekage!"

"Hmm!"

Wearing a ninja outfit similar to the one Gaara wore when he became Kazekage, Rasa didn't waste any words. He glanced at Yekura and Migawa and said in a muffled voice.

"Act according to the plan, now! Depart!"

"Yes!"

Instantly, all the ninjas transformed into shadows and entered One-Line Sky. Waiting for them would be a life-or-death war. Rasa, Yekura, and Migawa didn't waste any time, their figures blending into the shadows, following closely behind.

Under the night sky, in the vast desert, figures moved swiftly across the sand...

At the same time, within certain houses in Sand Village, spies lurking in Sand Village began to transmit information through various means.

Such a large-scale operation in Sand Village could not be concealed from everyone.

Within an hour of Sand Village's operation, all the ninja villages in the ninja world knew about Sand Village's movement.

Obviously, Sand Village was finally unwilling to be lonely and wanted to join this ninja world war.

Now, the only question was which ninja village Sand Village would choose as their opponent.

This was not an easy question to answer.

Because whether it was during the First Ninja World War or the Second, the countries that Sand Village attacked were not only Konoha. Especially during the Second Ninja World War, when Sand Village was at its peak, it had attacked the other three major countries besides the Water Country, and had simultaneously provoked wars with the three major ninja villages.

However, this did not prevent the other four major ninja villages from increasing their troops on the border.

Because according to the information received, this time Sand Village had dispatched all of its elites...

— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —

The sky was slightly bright.

Within the Land of Rivers, sandwiched between the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire.

In this ninja world, small countries have no dignity and can only become battlefields for the major powers.

Just like the Land of Rivers, they have no ninja village of their own, and can only allow the ninjas of Konoha and Sand Village to roam back and forth on their territory.

Since Konoha received the information, all the Konoha ninjas in the Land of Rivers had increased their vigilance and patrol frequency to deal with the possible attacks from Sand Village.

It's just that their numbers are too small.

They also have to leave some ninjas on the border of the Land of Fire, so one person can only be used as several.

This is also something that can't be helped.

Currently, the vast majority of Konoha's ninjas have been sent to the battlefield bordering the Cloud Village, and there is no time or way to call them back, because compared to the uncertainty of Sand Village's attack, the conflict between Konoha and Cloud Village has reached the point of being imminent.

It should be known that Konoha and Cloud Village have long been at odds.

Since the Second Ninja World War, Konoha and Cloud Ninjas have had many conflicts.

First is the death of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama.

Although this was due to the internal strife of Cloud Village itself, it is an undeniable fact that Senju Tobirama died at the hands of Cloud Village ninjas.

Secondly, Cloud Village has repeatedly provoked Konoha.

The most serious of these was the kidnapping of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki.

This time, it can be said that they were dancing on the nerves of Konoha's high-level officials.

Although Konoha chose to swallow their anger in order to avoid war, this does not mean that Konoha has forgotten these things. Later, the Cloud Village Eight-Tailed Jinchuriki rampage incident was Konoha's response.

In addition to Konoha, Cloud Village has also made great moves in recent years.

Cloud Village itself is a ninja village that extremely advocates force.

Even though the Land of Lightning, where Cloud Village is located, has a much better geographical environment than Sand Village, the land, which is mostly hills and rivers, still makes the Land of Lightning very covetous of the Land of Fire's endless plains.

This has led the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning to spare no effort in supporting Cloud Village's military buildup.

Especially after the appointment of the hawkish Third Raikage, Cloud Village's military equipment and number of ninjas have developed to the most prosperous time since Cloud Village was established. At the same time, Cloud Village has also invested a lot of energy in the tailed beasts, and this move is provoking the nerves of the entire ninja world.

It's just that at this time, neither Konoha nor Cloud Village dared to proactively provoke war.

Until Konoha gave Cloud Village a chance to see victory in this war.

First, after the Second Ninja World War, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who became Hokage, and Danzo, the leader of the Root, as well as the elders, began to relentlessly suppress the Uchiha clan. This self-defeating move left Cloud Village dumbfounded.

Secondly, according to intelligence, Tsunade, one of the Sannin, actually suffered from hemophobia after the Second Ninja World War and could not join the front-line battle. This was simply great news. It should be known that Tsunade's medical ninjutsu is something that the other four major ninja villages are very envious of.

Just when Cloud Village thought that the good news had ended here.

Another incredible piece of information came.

Last year, Konoha White Fang: Hatake Sakumo, who was once able to rival the Sannin in fame with his own strength during the Second Ninja World War, actually chose to commit suicide in his own home.

The moment he received the information, the Third Raikage even thought it was fake news spread by Konoha.

How could such a man commit suicide because of the village's rumors? But after confirming that this was not fake news, the Third Raikage felt regret and also saw the decline of Konoha.

So, in this year, in order to test Konoha's reaction and reality, the Third Raikage frantically sent people back and forth to the small country bordering the two countries: the Land of Hot Water.

The answer he got was a surprise to the Third Raikage.

Because in these countless tests, Konoha's response was really that there were no successors.

Not to mention the dead Hatake Sakumo and the hemophobic Tsunade, even Orochimaru and Jiraiya are rarely seen. Konoha's leader is actually just a kid in his early twenties: Namikaze Minato.

The Third Raikage initially thought it was a smokescreen released by Konoha.

Until he thoroughly understood the internal chaos of Konoha through intelligence.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya, who were famous in the Second Ninja World War, were actually suppressed by the Konoha elders and could not raise their heads.

It's really too ridiculous.

At this time, the Third Raikage completely saw the opportunity for victory.

So, he began to mobilize ninjas on a large scale to pass through the Land of Hot Water and come to the border of the Land of Fire, preparing for this war.

Seeing this, Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwa Ninja Village, also understood that Iwa Ninja Village's opportunity had come. The Land of Fire is a piece of fat that everyone is coveting. So, he also began to mobilize ninjas on a large scale to pass through the grassland country in the middle of the two countries and come to the border of the Land of Fire, preparing to get a share of the pie in this war.

Even Mist Ninja Village has sent its ninjas to participate in this war in the form of mercenaries.

Only Sand Village has been silent all along.

However, the other ninja villages can also understand.

After all, the sudden disappearance of the Third Kazekage of Sand Village has been a big commotion in the entire ninja world for a while.

Fortunately, it seems that Sand Village has resolved its internal problems and has also begun to prepare for this war.

And without letting them down, soon, Cloud Village, Iwa Ninja Village, and Mist Ninja Village received intelligence that Sand Village had raided the border of the Land of Fire......
