Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

The battle line was pushed forward for about a week. The Land of Grass heaved a sigh of relief because Konoha's big brother had already forced the invading Iwagakure out of the Land of Grass.

In this way, the Kusagakure Village can finally give an explanation to its own daimyo.

The situation of the war was beyond many people's expectations. The main reason was that the Tsuchikage did not take action, and there was no Kage-level ninja on the field to turn the tide of the battle. Therefore, the entire battle was slowly but resolutely crushed by Konoha.

In fact, according to Aoba's plan, this war came too early. Konoha has not yet completely escaped the control of the daimyo.

Reform has just begun. The war resources are far from enough. It is far from the time to launch a war.

But helpless, the other side took action. Konoha could only fight with all its strength. And this fight would immediately determine the winner.

Even though the reforms have only been going on for about two years, the progress of the ninja world is far beyond reality.

Konoha has actually changed in its bones.

Conventional ninjas and ninja villages all focus on training ninjas in small teams and elites. This is determined by the characteristics of ninjas.

Even in war, it was just a matter of gathering a bunch of teams together to attack in one go. And many of Aoba's plans, from the beginning, were to train a group of special ninjas specifically for war.

Those ninja artillery soldiers were the first generation of test subjects. These ninjas were trained in secret. They did not receive much traditional ninja training.

All training is centered around various range ninjutsu. At the same time, there is also loyal brainwashing education.

On the battlefield, these people also demonstrated strong suppressive power.

Ninjas are fragile professions with high attack and low defense. Except for perverts like Hashirama, even a Kage-level ninja can be killed by a kunai.

Large-scale firepower coverage is an unsolvable problem for any ordinary ninja.

Just when Kakashi was about to move forward and teach Iwagakure a profound lesson.

A piece of news spread throughout the ninja world.

The Kumogakure advance army was completely wiped out, and the Kumogakure delegation has gone to Konoha to seek a peaceful solution to the problem.

Yunyin was defeated.

Kakashi knew that it was normal for Kumogakure to lose. But the idea that the whole army was annihilated still surprised him. Could it be that Aoba personally took action and started a massacre?

But this is not the key point. The key point is that after the defeat of Kumogakure, Iwagakure also immediately sent out a peace signal.

At that moment, Kakashi knew the war was over.

A war that started off well but ended badly.

Countless small countries around were waiting to see the three ninja villages kill each other. But it didn't happen. Konoha made a move and directly killed the other two. The whole process was uneventful.

No, there are still waves.

It is said that on the battlefield of the Land of Hot Springs, Konoha's Wind Chaser Kamikawa Aoba once fought against a mysterious strong man.

Both sides demonstrated a power beyond cognition.

One of the parties even summoned a star and smashed it towards the Konoha Ninja Army. Kamikawa Aoba swung his sword to cut the star. He single-handedly shattered the star and protected the Konoha Ninja Army.

This bizarre rumor did not have much popularity at first, but as more and more Konoha ninjas told the story themselves.

Everyone gradually restored the truth of what happened at that time.

Blue and green giants a hundred meters high. Stars falling from the sky. And a sword light that shattered stars with a single blow.

Everything is true!!!

For a moment, the entire Ninja World didn't know how to evaluate this matter, because they were not ready to accept such a level of power in the Ninja World.

No, not everyone is unacceptable.

In Iwagakure, Ohnoki, who was lying on a hospital bed, was listening to his subordinates' reports.

"Show me the portrait."

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage." The subordinate hurried forward and handed a portrait to Ōnoki.

When Ohnoki took it and looked at it, his already gloomy face suddenly became even paler.

"It's really him."

"Lord Tsuchikage, the outside world is rumored to be Uchiha Madara. But how is this possible? Uchiha Madara has long been..."

"This is him," Ohnoki said in a weak tone.

"This is Uchiha Madara. I can't be mistaken because I have seen him many times."

"!!!!!!"

"But how is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. He should have been resurrected by some forbidden technique. But there is a problem. According to our intelligence, Uchiha Madara blocked Kamikawa Aoba at that time.

But now Kumogakure has been defeated. This means that his appearance was not the work of Kumogakure. So, this is the legendary mastermind hidden in the ninja world. "

Ohnogito was old and experienced, and during this period of recuperation, he had completely understood that Iwagakure and Kumogakure were each other's pawns from the beginning to the end.

The reason why the Iwagakure army did not confront Konoha head-on, but fought and retreated, was his intention. Since war has been declared, it must be fought. But whether it is a real fight or a fake fight depends on his intention.

Kirigakure should have been controlled by the other party long ago. The other party used Kirigakure officials to contact Iwagakure and Kumogakure. Then they sacrificed the Mizukage to create an opportunity for war.

The purpose is to force Kumogakure and Iwagakure to go to war with Konoha.

No matter what the opponent's purpose was, Iwagakure was defeated miserably in this round.

But fortunately, he was different from the reckless Raikage. He didn't rush over and attack. Instead, he made a tentative attack.

As expected, the current Konoha is no longer something they can deal with.

"Notify the diplomatic department and prepare a team of envoys."

"Understood. Lord Tsuchikage, do you need to draw up a list of envoys now?"

"No, I'll go myself."

.................

The land of rain.

Because of Nagato, the war did not affect the Rain Country at all.

But this did not make Nagato feel better, because Konoha became stronger again.

Konoha is one of the few large ninja villages in the ninja world that has a trace of conscience. But unfortunately, this kind of conscience is useless in the Land of Rain.

The troubles caused by the two idiots Danzo and Hanzo are still causing troubles in this small country. Whenever Nagato sees Konoha developing and winning a battle, he will feel uncomfortable.

He hated Konoha and the Land of Fire. He wanted to see the domineering ninja village destroyed. But unfortunately, not only did it not destroy, it even became more powerful.

"Well Nagato, it's not like we haven't gained anything yet. Get ready, the ceremony is about to begin."

A secret laboratory in the heart of the Rain Country. All the remaining members of the Akatsuki organization are here. Because today is a big day. The Akatsuki members will hold a ceremony to draw the Eight-Tails today.

With the rise of Konoha, the Akatsuki organization, which had been dormant for many years, finally decided not to wait any longer and officially joined this competition game with the entire ninja world as its battlefield.
