Naruto's water escape is the strongest

To be fair, the things mentioned by the cloud ninjas before were all supported by intelligence.

Just adding the words "I heard" and "I think" in front of the Raikage made it look very unserious and unprofessional.

What Nozomi wants to say is that he met Haruno Sakura by chance during the Chunin Exam. Although he said it was a chance encounter, in fact it was just a glance from a distance.

At that time, Haruno Sakura was inspecting the examination room with Kakashi, and Nozomi and the rest of the observation team were watching the Chunin Examination from the auditorium.

Neither the girl nor the cloud ninja paid attention to the examination room below, but looked around; then, their eyes met across a distance of dozens of meters.

A light sweep.There was no such thing as Haruno Sakura's eyes shining brightly and her whole body exuding the aura of a Kage-level master. One look at each other made Kumo Ninja slump to the ground as if struck by thunder.

"It's Haruno Sakura."

Almost as soon as he saw the girl, Xi recognized her.

Hair color, eyes, facial features, body shape, and a unique temperament among the crowd.

All consistent with the information he had memorized before.

What's more, the ninja standing next to the girl and chatting intimately with her was the famous Hatake Kakashi.

So even though she had never seen her before, even though she was just leaning casually on the railing with a demure smile on her face, her chakra was restrained and her aura was contained but not released, and she didn't have the ferocious smell of fighting Akatsuki many times, Nozomi still The identity of Haruno Sakura was immediately confirmed.

"Remember, Haruno Sakura's chakra texture."

Xi lowered her head subconsciously, touched her nose, and concealed the glint in her eyes.

As one of the best perception ninjas of the Kumo ninja, Nozomi is able to sense the chakra of other people very accurately, including several Konoha Anbu who are monitoring them around and think they are well hidden.

The chakra of Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, was like a torch in his perception. The flames were burning brightly, and the light of the fire was so hot and bright that it obscured the light of most people present.The chakra of the Fifth Kazekage was dark and solid, while the chakra of Terumi Mizukage was on the contrary unrestrained and fiery.Except for the three Kage, old, middle and young, the chakra of the others was much dimmer. The genin who were taking the exam were like candlelight at night, not worth mentioning.

The few people worthy of his attention include Kakashi, Haruno Sakura and others.

Kakashi is very unique in Nozomi's perception. Two chakras are clearly running in the body, one is strange and cold, and the other is refined and condensed. In terms of texture, it is not inferior to that of the shadows present, and is even different. It can win, but the quantity is too small.

"Could it be that" Xi narrowed her eyes and became interested, "he crossed that boundary?"

Kakashi, known as the Konoha Technician, has a very famous name in the entire ninja world.It's just generally recognized that his strength is not as good as the "shadow" level, but this time Nozomi can clearly sense that Kakashi's chakra has improved significantly compared to before.

"In the past, the relationship between Kakashi's two chakras could be said to be mutually shackles, but now they are somewhat mutually beneficial. Kage level Kakashi's strength seems to have grown to a point where it must be targeted."

Nozomi lowered her eyelids and thought silently: To deal with a ninja like Kakashi, several Jonin detachments from Kumo Ninja must be dispatched.

The answer is probably not very optimistic.

"What about Haruno Sakura?"

Nozomi turned his attention to the girl next to Kakashi.

Her chakra control is extremely good, the best that Nozomi has ever seen.The texture of the girl's chakra is beautiful.It is as gurgling as water, and as ethereal and clear as ice.However, with Xi's ability, what he can detect is only the tip of the iceberg revealed by the girl, and there is much more hidden under the sea.

The information that he is good at water escape and ice escape seems to be correct.There are also Yin seals.

Nozomi thought of Haruno Sakura's achievements that Konoha openly displayed. The strength of this young female ninja was probably still above Kakashi's.

There are also other characters with extraordinary strength or potential, such as Metkai, who is the best in physical skills in Konoha, Hyuga Hinata and Uchiha Sasuke, who are in the same class as Haruno Sakura.

Nozomi detailed the information recorded by the observation team to the Fourth Raikage.

"Well done." Ai, the black-faced brawny man, patted the chair hard and praised in a rough voice, "It's really you who can detect such a wealth of information in the heavily guarded Konoha, Nozomi."

Nozomi's expression remained calm, she shook her head slightly and said, "No, Raikage-sama, I'm afraid Konoha deliberately showed these to us."

"Why would Konoha do this on purpose? Isn't that stupid?" Raikage frowned.

"It's to show off muscles and shock other villages." said the dark-skinned woman standing aside.

Her name is Mabuyi, she is Raikage's secretary, and she has made unique achievements in auxiliary ninjutsu.

"The intelligence we brought back this time is all an estimate of their rough strength. There is no actual combat data, and we don't know their weaknesses." Nozomi nodded in agreement, "So, leaking these contents will not do anything to Konoha. Negative impact."

 

"That's right." Raikage thought about it and came to his senses, "Then according to your information, Konoha's current top-level combat power is very rich. Tsunade, Jiraiya, Kakashi and Haruno Sakura, the new generation There are a large number of newcomers with great potential, the Third Hokage still has some remaining power, and the strength of elite Jonin such as Metkai cannot be underestimated. In this way, Konoha is no longer a soft persimmon."

Raikage Ai was a little annoyed.

Kumo Ninja has been working hard over the years, collecting and creating ninjutsu, expanding armaments, sharpening his swords, and has long been prepared for the next ninja world war.

To put it more clearly, it was preparation for attacking Konoha.

A few years ago, when Konoha was still the pillar of the Third Hokage, Raikage could see that Konoha was strong on the outside and weak on the inside, making it the ideal soft persimmon for Kumo ninja. The collapse of Konoha was regarded by Raikage as a golden opportunity, and he immediately ordered Secretly preparing for war, planning to suddenly attack the Land of Fire one day and catch Konoha by surprise.

However, the Kumo ninjas never expected that the Suna ninja's invasion of Konoha would not cause huge losses to Konoha as they imagined.On the contrary, Konoha, which welcomed back Jiraiya and Tsunade, quickly came out of its lowest point.The Kumo ninjas were ready for war, and Konoha had recovered its strength. In the past two years, Tsunade and Jiraiya returned, and two more "Kage"-level figures emerged from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras.

Today, soft persimmons have become unpalatable hedgehogs.

The Cloud Ninja Village, which was ready to move, had to give up the goal of Konoha.

"Mabuyi, immediately stop all preparations for war against Konoha." The rough man was only annoyed for two seconds before he came back to his senses and regained his composure as a Raikage, "Nozomi, your intelligence department will have to do something in the near future. Focus some of your energy on Konoha ninjas, first verify the authenticity of the information brought back from this trip to Konoha, and secondly focus on improving the information on Konoha's new generation of ninjas."

"Especially" Raikage's eyes flashed, "the girl you are talking about called Haruno Sakura."

"Yes" Mabuyi and Nozomi said as ordered.

"Then how should we respond to the signal released by Konoha, Raikage-sama?" Mabuyi then asked.

Lei Ying had a headache. He pressed his temples hard with his thick-boned hands and pondered for a moment.

Konoha has already united with the Sand Ninja and Mist Ninja. No matter what name they are united under, no matter whether they seem to be inseparable or not, at least the Raikage has no idea of ​​​​confronting them. It is already impossible to deal with Konoha.

Unless the remaining two large villages, Kumo Ninja and Iwa Ninja Village, also unite, they will have enough strength to compete with the three-village alliance; but there is a blood feud between the two villages, and the Kumo Ninja would rather join the Konoha Alliance than join the Iwa Ninja Alliance. Hold hands.

The Iwa ninjas must have thought so too.

So do we really need five villages to unite to deal with "Akatsuki"?

"Is there still no news about the two Yuki-jinchuuriki of the two tails?" Raikage did not answer Mabuyi's question, but suddenly asked another question.

"The intelligence department has carefully searched the place where the two adults last appeared." Xi sighed, "No more valuable information has been found yet. The two adults disappeared after a fierce battle. I'm afraid"

I'm afraid something unexpected has happened to you two adults.

Xi didn't say these words, but everyone could hear what he meant.

Everyone's expressions became solemn.

In fact, after being solemnly warned by Konoha, Raikage, although somewhat disapproving, still increased the protection and confidentiality of the two Yuki people.

As a Jinchuuriki, Yukito has a pretty good relationship with the Two-Tailed Mata Brigade. He can control the tailed beast transformation to a very high degree. He has a calm and composed personality. He is a real "kage" level combat power, and he is protected by powerful companions. , and hiding in a secret place. Theoretically speaking, Raikage has done the best to prevent it.Unexpectedly, with such tight defense, Akatsuki was still able to find the jinchuriki, quickly resolve the battle and kidnap him.

How did the Akatsuki do it?

"The intelligence of the Jinchuuriki has always been top secret. Only a few people know the secret hiding place of the two adults. I have always suspected that the intelligence department has a deeply hidden mole, but according to the latest information shared by Konoha, they When the Jonin Haruno Sakura fought against Akatsuki last month, she unexpectedly discovered that Akatsuki had people who were extremely good at hiding and gathering intelligence. This explains why the two adults’ information was leaked.”

Nozomi continued.

"Under strict defense, Akatsuki was still able to kidnap the two Yumu people under the protection of many ANBU. It seems that this organization is indeed quite powerful."

Raikage admitted that he underestimated Akatsuki's strength before.No matter how much Konoha said, it would not be as convincing as the fact that Yukito was kidnapped.

He thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Then let's do it."

As he spoke, the burly man stood up suddenly and waved his hand down violently.

"Go and call Darui," Raikage made a decisive decision, "Ask him to lead a team to take my letter to Konoha and hand it over to Tsunade. That's right. We also invite Konoha ninjas to come to our village to do that. Shilaozi friendly exchange visit"

The Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Kiravi, is one of Akatsuki's targets, but he is his younger brother.
