I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

Ohnoki didn't expect that Konoha would take action at this time. According to the intelligence, Amegakure and Konoha are not allies, otherwise he would not have sent Huang Tu to the border at this time.

"Hey, it looks like you're all here so I can make another trip to Iwagakure."

Kakashi, wearing a mask, walked quickly forward, with Gai and Asuma following beside him, which was enough to show Tsunade's concern about this matter.

"You little white-haired brat, what is Konoha's purpose in coming here?"

Ohnoki stared at Kakashi with a bad look. Kakashi and Iwagakure are old rivals. Both sides are stained with the blood of each other's companions. The relationship between Iwagakure and Konoha can be said to be the worst.

"Well, don't be too angry old man, this is the letter that Lady Tsunade asked me to bring to you."

Kakashi walked up to Ohnoki and said with a smile. His appearance eased the tension between the two sides.

Ye Lan, who was hiding in the back, smiled secretly. They had chosen the time well. They knew when Kakashi and his group arrived at Yugakure, including approximately when they would appear.

Ōnoki first looked at Kakashi's face, then remembered some information and gave a mocking smile.

"It seems you can no longer call yourself Sharingan Kakashi."

Kakashi did not hide from others. The eyes that were originally covered were completely exposed. They were ordinary eyes that Tsunade had just transplanted for him. Kakashi, who no longer had the Sharingan, was less cold and more warm.

"I can't help it. I can only blame myself for some things. My eyes were taken away because I was not strong enough. But now I feel pretty good to be myself again."

Kakashi didn't care at all about Ōnoki untying his scars, instead he smiled and started chatting with the old man.

Ōnoki snorted and ignored Kakashi, picking up Tsunade's letter and began to read it carefully.

After a long time, Ohnoki put down the letter and looked at Kakashi with a complicated expression, "Is what the girl who played with the slug said true?"

Kakashi nodded slowly, giving Ohnoki a positive answer.

"Well, if what Tsunade said is true, then what does it matter if we, the Iwagakure, suffer this loss?"

An indescribable leadership aura emerged from Ōnoki, making it impossible for the other Iwagakure ninjas to refuse.

"Kakashi-jounin, what exactly did the Hokage-sama ask for?"

Xiu, who was standing by, saw that something was not right and quickly came to Kakashi and asked.

"Nothing, I'm just willing to help Iwagakure redeem the Yodo jonin and his daughter Kurotsuchi."

Kakashi's expression towards Xiu was completely different from the one he showed towards Ōnoki; it was one of complete indifference.

Xiu was so surprised when he heard this that he almost lost his composure for a moment. Liang walked up to him and gently supported him from behind, which made him calm down a lot.

Kakashi caught this small movement and said, "Hokage-sama has ordered that the war must be prevented at all costs. No matter who provokes this war, Konoha will join forces with the other party to attack them."

"Is Konoha threatening Amegakure?"

Xiu didn't expect Konoha to make this decision, which was completely different from what he expected.

"No, Konoha is a peace-loving village. We can't bear to see other countries fall into war."

Kakashi said as he looked at the other man deeply.

"What about the ransom? Yuyin will not make any concessions on this!"

Xiu didn't believe that Konoha was really willing to pay this money. You have to know that Konoha's current financial situation can barely operate relying on the factory. They would really be willing to give up this piece of delicious bread.

"Don't worry about this, Xiu Jonin. Konoha will give preferential treatment to Yugakure in the field of medical medicines, and will also place more orders for steel."

What Kakashi meant was very clear, that is, Konoha wanted to pay the ransom in this way, or to put it bluntly, it was freeloading.

"Are you Konoha sure you treat your partners like this?"

Ye Lan pretended to be angry and walked up to directly question the group of people from Konoha.

"This matter is also Konoha's decision. We are just conveying Konoha's position."

Asuma said somewhat embarrassedly. He did not expect Konoha to make such a choice. Normally, shouldn't they make friends with Amegakure to resist Iwagakure? How did it turn into helping Iwagakure deal with Amegakure?

Just when Xiu and the others were at a loss, Ohnoki dusted himself off and said, "This is the vision of someone who bears the name of Kage. You bunch of Rain Ninjas will never understand it."

Oonoki took out the hat from his back and put it on his head. There was a word "土" (earth) written on the hat, which was the symbol of the Tsuchikage.

Tsunade's various actions made Ōnoki very wary. Unlike the conservative Sarutobi Hiruzen, Tsunade had never used force directly, but at the same time she was on good terms with the Kirigakure and Sunagakure, and now the Iwagakure owed them a big favor.

Although it cannot be seen now, if Konoha declares war on that village in the future, the other allied villages will help or not. For example, the only big country that is not on good terms with Konoha is the Land of Lightning.

If Konoha declares war on Kumogakure, then Iwagakure will definitely support it, and even if Kirigakure and Sunagakure do not send any manpower, they will not lag behind. In the end, once Konoha eliminates the other major powers, it will become the new overlord of the ninja world.

Ōnoki's thinking took into account the darkest side of people. Having seen a lot of right and wrong, he never believed in human nature. He had to consider this and what Iwagakure should do at that time.

"Hahahaha~"

Just when Ōnoki was feeling a little worried, Kakashi and the others were relieved, and a bunch of Rain Ninjas were feeling unhappy, a laugh that gradually grew louder spread among the crowd.

"what are you laughing at?"

Kakashi stared at Lan Ye who seemed unable to control her expression and asked, it seemed like he had seen this look somewhere before.

"No, no, I just remembered something funny."

Ye Lan held his stomach and rubbed his face, trying to calm himself down, but this made his emotions even more uncontrollable.

In fact, the reason why Ye Lan laughed was not because of Konoha’s actions, but the attitude of these people. After all, this world judges people by bloodline, and people with superior bloodline will not communicate equally with other people with inferior bloodline.

Even though Amegakure has paid a lot, Konoha still gives priority to Iwagakure. As long as Iwagakure is pacified, what kind of trouble can you, Amegakure, which borders big countries on three sides, cause?

Even if they make things like combat vehicles, it could become the second Whirlpool Country.

After figuring all this out, Ye Lan no longer had any hope in those big countries. The previous cooperation was still too conservative, and future plans had to be changed.

"Ohnoki!"

Just when everyone was still confused, Ye Lan stopped Ohnoki who was about to leave.

Ohnoki turned around and looked at the Rain Ninja with dissatisfaction. He knew that it was this guy who defeated Huang Tu, and now he was stopping him just to say some harsh words.

Ohnoki scratched his ears as if he was impatient.

Ye Lan didn't care about Ohnoki's perfunctory look at all. He smiled exaggeratedly and spoke slowly.

"I heard that Kumogakure and Iwagakure have always been enemies. If Kumogakure learns that your army is here, will they take action?"
