The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

Qingji took the scroll respectfully, then took off the double swords, Flounder, which were on his back, sealed them into the scroll, and then put the scroll into the ninja tool bag he carried with him.

Qingsi has coveted this Ninja Sword Summoning Scroll for a long time. After all, his fighting style is not very convenient for him to carry a huge Ninja Sword on his back.

And to be honest, if it weren't for the political significance of the double swords, Aoi, Kiyoji might not have chosen to use this sword. After all, this ninja sword has no other obvious function at this stage except for amplifying his attack power and attack distance.

Moreover, he had carried it on his back before in order to practice controlling the ninja sword and to keep in line with the other six people. Now with this scroll, Qingji can be said to be liberated.

Seeing Qing Si's impatient actions, Bing smiled knowingly, then turned his gaze to Jian and asked, "What is the current situation? The Raikage has sent several letters urging us to send troops to the Whirlpool Country as soon as possible."

"The relevant information has been collected, and the preparations have been made. The Anbu can be dispatched at any time!" Jian replied without hesitation, then paused for a moment and continued, "But, Lord Mizukage, I don't think now is a good opportunity."

"Oh?" Bing was noncommittal. "Tell me in detail!"

"It's like this, Lord Mizukage. According to the intelligence sent back by the Anbu that are carrying out missions on the mainland, the war between Konoha, Sand Village and Amegakure has gradually slowed down in recent times, and there haven't been large-scale battles for a long time." Jian organized his thoughts and said slowly.

"If we attack the Land of Whirlpools at this time, Konoha, which is not mired in the war, will most likely send elite ninjas to rescue the Land of Whirlpools. We cannot pin our hopes on Konoha's integrity. Although Konoha may not make all-out rescue efforts, after all, the wife of the first Hokage who is still alive is named Uzumaki, and she is also the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails." After listening to Ken's idea, Seiji on the side nodded in agreement.

"I believe that the war will not end in a short time, and the Hidden Rain Village led by Hanzo of the Salamander will not be defeated so easily. Therefore, the best opportunity should be when a large-scale war breaks out again between Hidden Rain Village and Konoha." Jian continued to add.

"Well, that makes sense. In fact, I didn't think of taking action so early. After all, our ultimate goals are different from those of Kumogakure! According to our plan, Konoha's performance is of utmost importance. We must wait until the best time when Konoha has no time to take care of other things!" Bing said slowly, and then gave orders to the sword.

"Sword! Send a few more teams to the battle area and keep a close eye on the movements of Konoha, Sunagakure, and Amegakure. Report any signs at any time! Then send someone to deliver a letter to Kumogakure, asking them to wait patiently. Good things come late! Haha!"

"Yes!" Jian agreed and left the Mizukage's office.

After Jian left, Bing slowly stood up and walked to the huge French window. He put his hands behind his back and said, "Xiao Qingji, the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails and Six-Tails are about to collapse. You must be ready to go at any time."

"Don't worry, Lord Mizukage. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen are always ready!" Qingsi's words were sonorous and powerful, expressing his determination to Bing.

-----------------

Ten days passed quickly, and Hanzo was ready for the decisive battle with the Sand Village.

October 35, Kirigakure 10, morning.

The perception ninjas at the Sand Village front command center are sensing the direction of the Rain Village base as usual.

Suddenly, a loud noise broke the silence of the Sand Village. Several sensory ninjas were no longer as calm as usual. Cold sweat covered their cheeks. They shouted anxiously, "Hurry up and inform Chiyo-sama and Ebizo-sama! A large force from the Rain Village is attacking! The leader is Hanzo Salamander!"

Having tasted the sweetness of sneak attacks, Hanzo actually didn't want to have such a high-profile decisive battle with the Sand Village. However, in such a head-on confrontation on the battlefield, such a large number of ninja troops had no way to cover their tracks. Moreover, a small ninja village like the Rain Village, which lacked the inheritance of ninjutsu, did not have any ninjutsu that could cover up or block its own chakra aura.

Leading the Sunagakure side were the advisory elders Chiyo and Ebizo, a brother and sister. When they got the news, they realized that Hanzo could not continue to fight and wanted to have a decisive battle with Sunagakure, so they quickly gathered all the ninjas to prepare for a head-on confrontation with Amegakure.

The Sunagakure ninjas had long been tired of the petty fights with Amegakure. Coming from the five major ninja villages, they looked down on the ninjas from smaller villages like Amegakure from the bottom of their hearts. Furthermore, since Amegakure's sneak attack on the border last year, although the battle line had been pushed back into the territory of the Rain Country, there had never been any large-scale head-on confrontation between the two involving more than ten thousand ninjas.

There was a drizzle in the sky. On the endless plain, Hanzo of the Salamander, Chiyo and the brother and sister Ebizō stood in front of their own ninja troops.

"Hey! The one wearing the snorkel!" Chiyo showed her sharp tongue as soon as she opened her mouth, and gave Hanzo a very appropriate nickname.

This made Hanzo so angry that he was fuming. After all, ever since he became the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, no one dared to tease him or call him that for a long time.

"You've brought so many people here, it seems like you're going to have a decisive battle with us, the Sand Village! The little Rain Village that only dares to launch sneak attacks now dares to confront us head-on?" Chiyo continued to attack Hanzo crazily in front of the formation.

"Stop talking nonsense! Let's see who's the winner on the battlefield!" Hanzo interrupted Chiyo. Since he had already started the war by a surprise attack, he was not afraid of other people's comments. History is written by the victors. As for victory in the war, he has the final say.

Moreover, as the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, he must put the interests of the Hidden Rain Village first. The process is not important at all. After all, he is the hero of the Hidden Rain Village, the "demigod" Salamander Hanzo.
