Naruto started to become stronger by becoming a disciple of Tsunade

Hanzo is strong enough.

Therefore, the Hidden Rain Village was able to negotiate terms with the Hidden Rain Village and Konoha under the leadership of Hanzo.

Because unless a large number of troops are sent, sending a small number of ninjas will have no effect at all.

Moreover, even if a large-scale army was dispatched, the Hidden Rain Village guarded by Hanzo would not be taken in a short time. It would even be possible to delay the attackers and cooperate with the other party to kill all the attackers.

The cost outweighs the gain, the effort and reward are not proportional, so the Hidden Rain Village has become a hot potato.

This is the Hidden Rain Village when Hanzo was there. If too few people were sent, it would be useless. If too many people were sent, it would be easy to force the Hidden Rain Village completely towards the opponent, allowing the opponent and the Hidden Rain Village to attack from both sides and directly destroy the dispatched troops.

Now that Hanzo is dead, the Hidden Rain Village has lost its greatest support. The best option for the Hidden Rain Village now is to not help either side and simply retreat.

Otherwise, the subsequent anger of both Konoha and Iwagakure would not be something that the Hidden Rain Village could bear.

This is also why in the original work, the entire Hidden Rain Village was controlled by Nagato, but the various countries in the ninja world still did not feel much change.

Because after Hanzo's death, the Hidden Rain Village chose to close itself off from the outside world and stopped contacting or trading with any country in the ninja world.

"Teacher, I will go and report the news of Hanzo's death to Konoha right now!" Namikaze Minato seemed to have thought of something and immediately said to Jiraiya.

"Well, go ahead!!" Jiraiya nodded.

Then, under the gazes of Okamoto Dousuke and Jiraiya, Minato Namikaze quickly left the medical tent.

Iwagakure Village.

In the Tsuchikage's office, the Third Tsuchikage's short figure sat on a wide chair.

He looked at the scrolls on the stone table with a sad face.

This is the intelligence scroll written by his son Huangtu himself.

Huangtu clearly wrote on the intelligence scroll that in this war, Iwagakure lost a large number of ninjas.

Especially in the intelligence, Huang Tu described in detail the threat posed by Minato Namikaze to ninjas below the elite jonin on the battlefield.

The intelligence stated that if the Iwagakure ninja did not have a way to eliminate Minato Namikaze, they would never be able to gain an advantage on the battlefield.

Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique is a deadly threat to the Iwagakure ninjas, and even to the ninja armies of various countries in the ninja world.

Oonoki tapped the tabletop lightly with his index finger, thought for a moment, and slowly made up his mind.

"Somebody come!"

Swish!

An Iwagakure ANBU appeared in front of the desk, standing in place like a javelin.

"Lord Tsuchikage!" The man bowed slightly to Ōnoki.

"You go and inform Huangtu and the others that during the period when they have not found a way to stop Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Jutsu, if they encounter Minato Namikaze of Konoha, the Iwagakure team can give up the mission and it will not be considered a mission failure!!" Ohnoki said with a heavy face.

"What?! Lord Tsuchikage!!" A crisp female voice came out of the mouth of the Iwagakure Anbu in surprise.

This shows how shocked this Iwagakure Anbu was after hearing Ōnoki's order. He was even stunned for a while.

"Go and pass this secret order to Huangtu and the others!!" Ohnoki had no intention of explaining to anyone, but gave the order directly.

"Yes, it's Lord Tsuchikage!" The Anbu also knew that what he said just now was a bit rude.

Swish!

The figure of the Iwagakure Anbu disappeared instantly.

Watching the disappearing figures of the Anbu, Ohnoki naturally knew how much of a blow his order would cause to the morale of the Iwagakure ninjas.

But in the absence of any way to stop Minato Namikaze, he could no longer let the ninjas in his village sacrifice themselves for the so-called mission in Shirabai knowing that they would die.

"But this helpless compromise is only temporary!" The Third Tsuchikage Ohno slammed his fist heavily on the stone desk.

The Third Tsuchikage raised his arm, and a tiny crack began to spread slowly from the place where he was hit by Ōnoki to the surrounding areas.

The entire body of the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki slowly floated up.

Ohnoki floated to the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the office.

Gently falling down, Ōnoki had a clear view of the entire Iwagakure Village through the bright floor-to-ceiling windows.

Suddenly, Ohnoki raised his head and stared straight in the direction of Konoha.

"When that village encounters a crisis, geniuses always emerge in large numbers!" Oonoki murmured to himself.

At this moment, his mind was still thinking about the information sent back by Huangtu.

Crack! Crash! Crash!

The stone Tuying desk made a crisp sound at the corner, and then the lower left corner of the desk collapsed and fell to the floor.

The smooth stone floor was instantly left with several white marks.

The cracks on the Tsuchikage's desk continued to expand as Ohnoki's punch just now stretched.

Finally, the corner of the desk couldn't bear the weight and fell off.

As the corner of the table fell, the intelligence scroll on the table, which had not yet been closed, slowly unfolded on the table due to the vibration.

The part that was closed by Ohnoki had the following words at the beginning: The leader of the Hidden Rain Village, the demigod of the ninja world, Hanzo, died!!!

Although there was only one line of words at the beginning, the information it revealed did disrupt Oonoki's plans.

"Hanzo is dead, and the strategy of joining forces with Amegakure is no longer feasible! It seems we have to think of other ways!" Ohnoki's face was full of vicissitudes.

Now, Iwagakure's direct assault on Konoha's camp ended in failure.

It is no longer possible to attack again.

Not to mention the presence of Minato Namikaze, which would be a huge blow to the morale of the Iwagakure ninjas.

That's the kid!

A picture of a young man wearing a white medical uniform with a smile on his lips suddenly appeared in Oonoki's mind.

A young man who has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique just like Minato Namikaze.

The one who killed the half-human Hanzo in the ninja world!

A person who was given the title of Konoha's Gem by Hanzo when he was dying!

It is also an existence that we must guard against!

It was because Huangtu and his men received the news of Hanzo's death that they retreated directly when they besieged Jiraiya.

In order to ensure the vitality of the Iwagakure, and because Jiraiya was too difficult to deal with, he seemed to be carrying countless healing potions on his body.

It was also with the help of a large amount of healing potions, including the new healing potion given to him by Okamoto Dousuke, that Jiraiya was able to hold out to the end under the siege of so many Iwagakure masters.

Ōnoki looked in the direction of Konoha. Could it be that the village was so favored by fate?

First, he fought against the Wind Kingdom, and then he fought against the Thunder Kingdom and the Earth Kingdom at the same time.
