Chapter 265: Arriving in Sunagakure
Chapter 265: Arriving in Sunagakure
Country of the wind.
Sunagakure.
At this time, the whole town was in a rather tense state. It could be seen that the ninjas were at least three times more active than normal, and it was almost impossible to find women and children in the streets, all of them had already been sent to a safe place.
In the conference room on the top floor of the Kazekage building.
At the head of the large oval table sat the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, who rested her elbows on the table, interlocked her fingers and said in a deep voice, "This day has finally come..."
"Konoha actively increased their forces, and no one stopped them from absorbing small countries, and now, their eyes, as expected, fell on the big countries, what do you think about this?"
A ninja sitting next to Rasa stood up abruptly, slammed his palms on the table and gnashed his teeth, saying, "Become part of Konoha? Never!"
"Yes!"
"We will never surrender to Konoha!!!"
Angry shouts echoed in the conference room.
A few days ago, Konoha mobilized a massive force and sent it to the border, and this morning, Sunagakure received an ultimatum demanding that it surrender immediately and become part of Konoha.
According to the proposed agreement, Konoha would grant autonomy to Sunagakure for the next ten years.
But Sunagakure will have to send children to study at the Konoha Ninja Academy, in addition, there are several conditions regarding the control of order in Sunagakure.
In addition, Sunagakure must help Konoha occupy the Wind Country, control the Wind Country and merge it with the Fire Country.
Such demands cannot be accepted!
Sunagakure is one of the five Great Ninja Towns, and even after the defeats in the Second and Third Ninja World Wars, they did not consider such humiliating treaties!
"Although there is a clause about granting autonomy, but once this treaty is signed, Sunagakure will sooner or later disappear, completely blending in with Konoha, everyone here should understand this, so.... Do you have a strategy to fight Konoha?"
The fourth Kazekage, Rasa, looked at everyone present.
He clenched his fists tightly and his eyes flashed with inflexibility and hardness.
Yeruashi alone is strong enough to completely overwhelm Sunagakure, so it is absolutely impossible for them to take on Konoha alone.
"Kazekage-sama, if Konoha begins to take over the Wind Country, the other Grand Ninja Villages will not stand idly by, because after the fall of the Wind Country, it will definitely be their turn!"
Baki, a Jounin, stood up, glared at Rasa and said, "Therefore, we must immediately contact Iwagakure, Kirigakure and Kumogakure to form a unified army as quickly as possible and force Konoha to retreat!"
The ninja sitting next to Baki added, "You're right, they know very well and must be waiting for us to make contact. If Konoha wants to provoke the start of the Fourth Ninja World War, we must unite and prove that it won't be so easy to win!"
A discussion immediately broke out in the conference room.
"Cough, cough..."
Rasa coughed, which instantly silenced everyone and then looked at the village dignitaries gathered here and said, "The formation of a unified army is already inevitable, even if we don't step forward, they will definitely start communicating with each other. The question now is how we are going to counter Konoha's attack? The enemy has already begun to act, and the speed of forming a unified army is definitely not comparable to that of Konoha's army."
After Rasa's words, a heavy atmosphere reigned in the conference room.
After a while, someone gritted their teeth and slammed their fist down hard on the table, saying, "Let's retreat!!!"
"Without the support of the unified army, we won't stand a chance against Konoha, so let's disperse our forces before the arrival of Konoha's forces, there's no need to directly engage the enemy!"
Almost everyone present had experienced the Fifth Hokage's invasion of Sunagakure a few years ago and understood that once that monster appeared, they would have no way to resist.
The only reasonable option was to surrender Sunagakure and disperse the ninja.
The Fourth Kazekage's face turned grim and he said, "But in that case, Konoha will be able to launch an unhindered invasion and take over the entire Wind Country without much difficulty..."
"Don't worry so much about that, Kazekage-sama!"
Baki gritted his teeth and said, "If Konoha sends a large amount of forces to the Wind Country, by the time the combined army is formed, we will have a tactical advantage... although it will lead to heavy losses on the Wind Country's part, but since Konoha has already decided to take a step, there is no other way!"
Everyone present looked very serious.
In fact, even if this war is won, the Wind Country will inevitably suffer great losses and will soon disappear into the rivers of history along with the loss of Konoha, so those present were still hesitant.
Just at that moment.
Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice echoed in the conference room.
"I must disturb you..."
This voice caused everyone present to suddenly stiffen, their eyes immediately shifting to the center of the conference room.
There they saw a figure rising gently under a large oval table.
Soon it was fully visible.
Forehead protector with the symbol of Konoha, long silver hair and a black mask covering the lower part of the face.
The pupils are scarlet with a Mangekyou Sharingan pattern.
"You're a Konoha ninja..."
"Sharingan Kakashi!"
The expressions on the faces of those present abruptly changed.
A Sunagakure ninja, who was nearby, exclaimed loudly and abruptly unsheathed sword, then wrapped it with Wind attribute chakra and slashed in Kakashi's direction.
Boom!!!
A slash formed from a rather large amount of Wind attribute chakra slammed into Kakashi's body, but went through it without meeting resistance and slashed the wall behind.
This move immediately attracted the attention of the Sunagakure ninja outside the Kazekage building.
A large number of ninja rushed over, staring at the damaged building.
"Don't be in such a hurry."
Kakashi glared at the attacking shinobi, then turned his gaze to Rasa and said, "I don't know if the esteemed Kazekage-sama will listen to me."
Under Kakashi's feet, it was unknown when a layer of golden sand appeared.
It rushed upwards, intending to wrap around Kakashi's legs, but failed to make contact with his body.
The Fourth Kazekage frowned visibly, after some hesitation, he lowered his hand and nodded, "Tell me."
Kakashi raised his hand, showed four fingers and said slowly, "Konoha is committed to unifying the ninja world and will definitely face the combined army of the Great Ninja Peoples, but it will inevitably take time. Even if the united army is successfully formed, the war will end up developing in the territory of the Wind Country..."
"In this war, Sunagakure will bear the brunt, after all, you are our main target at the moment."
"But if you voluntarily accept our ultimatum, renouncing the resistance and becoming part of Konoha, you will be able to maintain your current position for quite a long period of time."
As he spoke, Kakashi curved three fingers, leaving only the index finger, pointed them forward and said, "This is just a reminder, but I hope you will make an intelligent decision."
