Chapter 75 The Situation(2/3)
The tailed beast jade has surpassed the eight tails.
As for the nine-tailed beast jade, which is the strongest tailed beast, she has never seen it before, so she cannot judge its strength.
The Fourth Raikage took a deep breath and lowered his voice:
"You're careless. You shouldn't have accepted bribes from the Kingdom of Ghosts before. Now all countries have to recognize the military power of the Kingdom of Ghosts, thus changing their attitudes towards this neutral country."
Kumogakure, who respects both strength and action, naturally understands what a country's military power means in this one-country-one-village era.
Compared with neutral countries, a strong military power is the fundamental guarantee for a country to live and work in peace and contentment, not a neutral country contract.
As a neutral country, the Kingdom of Iron has been involved in ninja wars more than once. If necessary, it is not impossible for the Kingdom of Demon to be involved in future ninja wars. It just depends on whether it is necessary.
"Mabuyi, if we take action now, what are the chances of winning?"
The Fourth Raikage asked in a solemn voice.
"Concentrating all our efforts to capture the Kingdom of Ghosts is not a problem. As for the other aspects, it is impossible to calculate."
There are only a lot more ninjas in Kumogakure than Sunagakure, with more than 10,000 ninja armed forces, and their combat effectiveness is more fierce. Moreover, Kumogakure also has perfect Jinchuuriki, plus various secret techniques and techniques collected over the years.
The destructive power caused by the forbidden technique is enough to bulldoze the entire ghost country in one day.
But it's not necessary.
This is something that only happens in extreme circumstances.
Yunyin and the Kingdom of Ghosts do not have such a big conflict, otherwise they would not have allowed the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Wind to fight.
Not to mention whether other countries will take advantage of it, the casualties alone are not something that Kumogakure's family can bear.
"What did Sunagakure say? Aren't they going to take revenge and go back?"
The Fourth Raikage asked.
He has already seen that the ninja troops of the Demon Country are not worth mentioning. The only ones who pose a threat are the three rebellious ninjas who came out of Konoha.
Everyone can easily make one ride equal to a thousand.
Even so, he still hopes that the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Ghosts can fight to the death and launch a war that will overwhelm the country. This is the best outcome for Yunyin.
"I heard that Kazekage's mood is not very stable. It may be that he saw a large number of sand ninjas die in front of his eyes in an instant, which caused a great psychological shadow."
Mabuyi said with a worried expression.
To be honest, this is human nature.
Each of the Five Shadows cherishes their own village very much. Seeing so many of their "family members" wiped out in front of their eyes, the psychological shock that occurs instantly has no buffer. After reacting, ordinary people may have gone crazy.
Maybe here in Kumogakure, the thousands of Suna ninja are just a number, just like the people who unfortunately died in the previous ninja wars, they are also just a number.
But for Sunagakure, it's more than just a number.
After the Third Ninja War, the strength he had regained was lost in one fell swoop.
"In other words, Sunagakure doesn't have anyone who can make the decision now?"
The Fourth Raikage raised his eyebrows.
Mabuyi replied: "The one who calls the shots now is Sunagakure's former advisor, Elder Chiyo."
"That old woman playing with puppets."
The Fourth Raikage looked a little more serious.
Azabui took out a letter from his arms and said: "In addition, this is a letter sent from Elder Chiyo of Sunagakure Village. It is about the holding of the Five Shadows Conference. The same letter must have been sent to the Hokage and Tsuchikage respectively.
With the Mizukage in hand."
"Five Shadows Conference?"
The fourth Raikage stepped forward quickly and took the letter from Mabuyi's hand. The words "Your Majesty the Raikage personally express" were written on the outside.
After taking it apart, I took a look at the contents above.
The Fourth Raikage sneered, showing a sarcastic look.
"What a five-kage meeting? It's clearly a meeting for help. It seems that Sunagakure has been defeated by the Demon Country."
Mabuyi asked: "So, Raikage-sama, do you want to participate? As the victorious country, the Kingdom of Demons hopes that the Kingdom of Wind will give up the northwest region as a price to end the war. Sunagakure is now in a dilemma and can only rely on the Five Shadows Conference
The alliance to put pressure on the Kingdom of Demons, and the other issue is the issue of the three rebellious ninjas..."
"Go! Why not go! In this Five Shadows Conference, military representatives from the Kingdom of Ghosts will also be invited. If that white-eyed woman also goes there, then I can avenge my shame and let her have a taste of me.
His fists are powerful!"
He encountered two powerful enemies in his life.
One is Hinata Ayane, who possesses the Byakugan blood inheritance limit and can use soft fists to suppress his thunder escape armor.
The other person is Namikaze Minato, the fourth Hokage of Konoha. He is a ninja who is famous in the ninja world with the name of Yellow Flash. He wins in terms of speed.
Nowadays, only the legend remains of the yellow flash, which means that Hinata Ayane is his lifelong enemy and an opponent who must be defeated!
The Fourth Raikage is full of confidence in this trip.
Mabuyi sighed, still speaking without thinking too much.
Although I know that the Fourth Raikage definitely did not go there to resolve personal grudges, he just wanted to give himself a step forward in participating in the Five Kage Conference, and I hope there will be no trouble by then.
But it’s also a good time to get to know the situation in other countries.
Especially Kirigakure Village.
Ever since Gotachibana Yagura launched a coup eight years ago and became the fourth Mizukage, the situation there has been a mystery.
◎
Kirigakure.
"Three,700 people died and 1,200 were injured? Is that just a few people dead?"
After receiving the information sent from the Kingdom of Demons through secret channels, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura glanced at the results of the battle between the Kingdom of Demons and the Kingdom of Wind, and after thinking about it, he said with regret.
In front of him was Kirigakure's next Mizukage candidate, Kirigakure Jounin, Terumi Mei, the owner of two blood inheritance limits.
After hearing Yagura's words, she was slightly speechless.
Three thousand seven hundred ninjas is not a small number.
In terms of the casualty rate within one or two months, it would be better to say that this is already a very exaggerated result.
The direct loss of Sunagakure's military strength this time was in the range of one-quarter to one-third.
Counting the wounded, Sunagakure can barely muster 10,000 ninjas now.
"You can't calculate it that way, because there are also a group of Konoha's elite jounin mixed in Sunagakure's army. Even Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, was captured and imprisoned in a prison. Sunagakure and Konoha put in
There is more power than what is written on paper.”
Considering that many jounin died in the war, this was the source of heavy losses for Sunagakure and Konoha.
The training of every Jonin is hard-won and requires a lot of resources and time.
Let's put it this way, regardless of Konoha, Sunagakure may be in a state of relatively short supply of jounin in the next seven or eight years. The high-end combat power of jounin will be obviously at a disadvantage compared to other major ninja villages.
The loss of a large number of jounin was far heavier than the superficial numbers.
This is the root cause of Sunagakure's severe damage.
It is also a cruel fact.
The genin who died in the war are cannon fodder, and the chunin are considered the backbone. It is not too troublesome to train these two levels of ninja.
Only the cost of cultivating jounin is very high. Because even the five kage are the ones who stand out among the jounin.
This is not a number that can be brushed off.
"So, he should be merciful. It would be great if the direct battle losses of Sunagakure Village could be increased to 5,000 people."
Yagura leaned on the automatic swivel chair and took a leisurely sip of hot tea.
Terumi Mei glanced at Yagura, that might be the case for this Mizukage.
After all, when he launched the coup, the casualties within Kirigakure Village were not much weaker than those of Sunagakure this time.
Coupled with the seemingly divergent relationship with the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Water, and the breakdown of the 'contract' relationship, serious distrust arose between the Ninja Village and the Daimyo aristocratic system, and they basically parted ways.
This is also the reason why Kirigakure has closed itself off from the country in recent years and secretly sought allies.
With the secret support of the Kingdom of Ghosts, Kirigakure Village has cultivated a group of businessmen. Under the protection of the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce, they have also been able to enjoy themselves in the business world, allowing Kirigakure Village to gradually become independent. The reason why it is still necessary to do this
Showing one's support for the Daming Mansion of the Land of Water is just a show.
"So, Sand Hidden Village is convening a five-kage conference this time. Will Mizukage-sama want to attend?"
Terumi asked.
Yagura glanced at Terumi Mei and said: "No matter what happens with this matter, if the Demon Kingdom chooses Kumogakure this time, it may continue to trigger a large-scale war. But if it is Sunagakure... the next step is probably
We can’t fight anymore. Otherwise, Sunagakure wouldn’t have held a five-kage conference to ask for help from the other kage.”
If Sunagakure really wanted to continue the conflict with the Kingdom of Demons, he would not have held a meeting of the Five Kage, but would have immediately sent out troops to start a war that would overwhelm the country.
To be continued...
