Chapter 276 Madman(1/3)
Konoha declared war, and this news spread throughout the entire ninja world almost that year.
The ninja world has been peaceful for three years, although such tranquility is meaningless to many small countries because they still live in water and fire.
After all, they are not the Kingdom of Grass and the Kingdom of Tang. Of course, many of them do not want to be a member of the Kingdom of Grass or the Kingdom of Tang at all.
Even though they basically have no power, and their power has been stripped away one by one by their neighboring big country ninja village, they only have control over one-third of an acre of land.
But even if they only have one-third of an acre of land, it is a manifestation of power for them. They are really unwilling to give up this little control in their hands.
Especially after Konoha takes over those places, they will directly strip away everyone's power, and then re-customize and distribute them according to Konoha's way.
It is impossible for them to have any chance or luck, and even for those who are disobedient, the consequences are clear at a glance, that is, Konoha will send them directly out of the biosphere!
Konoha has never concealed its approach on this point. Countless people in the Land of Grass and the Land of Yu have been sent away. This is definitely something that makes them scared.
But facing Konoha, they really have no choice, especially the small country controlled by Sunagakure Village, they are even more worried.
But no matter what the worry is, it has no actual effect, because Sunagakure Village is asking for it this time, and no matter what Konoha does, it is justified.
Now they can only pray that Sunagakure Village has prepared a coping mechanism, otherwise they will really have to accompany Sunagakure Village to the funeral.
The interior of Sunagakure Village was also in chaos at this time. They had received the information in advance from spies stationed in Konoha, so they still had room to prepare and maneuver.
They contacted Konoha almost immediately and told Konoha that all these actions were the Fourth Kazekage Rasa's own actions, hoping that Konoha would forgive them.
And they are willing to compensate Konoha and continue to maintain an alliance with Konoha.
During the Third Ninja War, Konoha chose to forgive them, and now they hope that this state of affairs can continue.
But what shocked them greatly, but was not particularly unexpected, was that Konoha ignored them at all, and the declaration of war was still announced to the entire ninja world!
At this moment, all of them knew that they no longer had any room for maneuver, and the only choice they could make now was to fight.
But how to fight this?
Konoha's soldiers are strong, their morale is high, and their war plan is well-founded. No one can say that Konoha's choice is wrong.
Looking back on them, the elite troops were completely defeated in Konoha, and only the garrison was left.
Although the garrison has a large number of people, its overall strength is really just that. Their high-end combat effectiveness is almost extinct due to various reasons.
The most terrible thing is that their weapon of war deterrence, Ichibi, is probably now in the hands of Konoha according to intelligence.
Konoha, which had already mastered the nine-tailed beast, the strongest tailed beast, now has another one-tailed beast in its hands. This is definitely bad news for Sunagakure and them.
"How will Iwagakure and Kumogakure respond now?"
In the Kazekage building, Chiyo asked tiredly, "There is no shadow in Sunagakure Village now, and no one else has that ability at all."
Under such circumstances, the task of commanding and coordinating the entire Sunagakure defense fell on the old man Chiyo.
"They didn't give any answer."
Ebizo sighed helplessly, and then gave an answer that Chiyo least wanted to hear.
"They said we brought it upon ourselves, but it was indeed untimely for Konoha to have two tailed beasts in its hands, so they supported them, but did not help us."
Giving all support except aid doesn’t mean giving nothing?
"Are they crazy?"
Chiyo hammered the table hard, and she asked in disbelief.
"Konoha is so strong now, and they have the precedent of annexing the Country of Grass and the Country of Yu, and they have now taken action against the Country of Yu and the Country of Tea.
If they were allowed to conquer the River Country again, who else in the ninja world could resist Konoha?
Do they want to see the Konoha family dominate? Don't they know that only by uniting against Konoha at this time can they truly contain Konoha?
It’s okay for this young man Kirabi to go crazy, why did Onoki also go crazy?
Now Konoha is annexing small countries, and in the future it may annex big countries. Who can stop Konoha then?"
Chiyo was really incredibly angry right now, but no matter how angry she was, she was just helpless and furious in the face of that cold rejection.
After a long time, Chiyo slumped on the chair, looking a little sad.
Ebizo stood silently beside her. This matter had reached a point where no one could end it, and they were the creators of this matter.
It was they who provoked Konoha, it was they who provoked Konoha, it was they who pushed all of this to an irreversible point.
Now it's really difficult for them to end it, and they really don't know how to end it. They have to think of a way.
"Notify, all troops in the Kingdom of Rivers will enter the Kingdom of Winds."
After a long while, Chiyo finally spoke helplessly.
"Konoha has declared war on us, and besides revenge is profit.
If they want the Kingdom of the River, we will give it to them, but if they want to enter the Kingdom of the Wind, they must break their hands!
We need to use actions to tell them where our bottom line is, and we need to let them know what they can and cannot do.
That's it, you can inform me."
After saying this, Chiyo seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. She sat there blankly without saying a word, while Ebizo sighed deeply, then turned and left.
The issuance of this order means that Sand Hidden Village has completely lost the fertile land of the River Country and half of the River Country's mission share.
It also lost the access from the River Country to the Fire Country and lost an excellent transportation hub.
This time, Sand Hidden Village will be at the bottom of the five major countries.
Although they were at the bottom before, in the Country of Rivers they can still continue to recover and find ways to improve.
Now they have lost this place, their most important pillar, and they have almost nothing.
All they have left is the vast desert and the endless sorrow.
And they can only watch all this happen, and they are completely unable to change it...
...
There was mourning in Sunagakure Village, but it was a different scene in Konoha Village.
The casualty statistics of Konoha have already been concluded. Although Konoha did suffer some losses, the losses are really not particularly large.
You must know that this is a village with a population of more than 100,000 and 200,000, and they still encountered a sneak attack.
The reason why Konoha's losses were reduced to such an extent was that the Security Department played a huge role in it.
It can be said that without the Security Department, even if Konoha's top brass knew that Sunagakure Village was going to be attacked secretly, they would never have been able to reduce the number of casualties to such a level.
The situation is very, very good now. Although it cannot be possible for everyone to be fine, war can never be without death.
At this point, all the top brass in Konoha have been mentally prepared.
Therefore, after the results came out, Konoha immediately announced all various pension and subsidy plans.
Those injured will also receive free assistance and treatment. It can be said that Konoha has made all preparations.
They will not let the injured become a burden, nor will they leave the victims and their families helpless.
Moreover, Jiraiya also suggested that after the war against Sunagakure Village ends, Konoha should hold a village-wide funeral.
This kind of thing naturally has the support of everyone, after all, they all sacrificed and were injured for Konoha.
In addition to this aspect, Konoha has also started a mobilization plan.
Although Konoha did not carry out full-scale mobilization, the Konoha ninjas who were holding back their breath were particularly enthusiastic.
It took almost only two days for them to complete the mobilization and assembly. This time, the number of people who would participate in the Sunagakure War was set at 8,000.
These eight thousand people include Konoha's internal mobilization and border defense forces.
Eight thousand is not a small number. The total number of ninjas in Konoha is only tens of thousands. After all, training ninjas is very difficult.
Moreover, Konoha needs to deploy troops in various places for defense, and many of Konoha's ninjas are civilian staff and genin in school.
Therefore, with 8,000 people transferred at once, it can definitely be said that Konoha is 'full of sincerity'.
"The war is about to begin again."
In the hazy night, Habara and Kotonoha were walking through the streets of Konoha. After dealing with various things for the day, they could finally call it a day.
Yan Ye looked at Konoha, who was already on alert, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
However, her voice was very low and her eyes were always lowered. It was obvious that she was still a little uncomfortable with Ha Yuan at this time.
This situation has been going on for a while. Strictly speaking, she is not such a person, but when the relationship deteriorates, she really can't handle it.
"Yes, war is coming again, but there won't be any problems in such a war."
Ha Yuan smiled, then reached out and took Yan Ye's hand.
Yan Ye didn't resist, she just glanced at Yu Yuan and lowered her head and continued walking forward.
"By the way, I originally planned to visit your home, but something like this happened unexpectedly. I'm sorry."
"Some things really can't be helped."
Yan Ye didn't know how to answer for a moment after hearing Yu Yuan's words. In the end, she could only give such an answer.
Could it be that she had to say that she was also sorry? Isn't this a joke?
To be continued...
