Hiding oneself is the best way. However, the Country of Fire will not give the Country of Rain such an opportunity. They do not need such a disobedient and out-of-control neighboring country."

Therefore, Nagato's heart was wavering.

Hesitating between the two choices of taking action and not taking action.

If we don't take action, the situation in the Country of Rain will be even more difficult.

Taking action may bring about many unexpected changes, which may be good or bad.

Heaven and hell are all between choices.

Hanzo's experience is a bloody example.

It is a very sad thing for a country's strength and weakness to rest on only one person.

This is true for both countries and individuals.

In contrast, even though Konoha currently lacks high-end combat power, it is still feared by various countries. As long as the foundation of the ninja clan is still there and a real war begins, Konoha can still display impressive combat effectiveness.

"Is that really the case?"

Unlike the Kingdom of Rain, the Kingdom of Ghosts does not need to think so much.

As long as the bottom line of the Fire Nation is not touched, the Fire Nation will not dare to go to war with the Ghost Nation.

And interfering in the war in the Kingdom of Rain is obviously not the bottom line of the Kingdom of Fire.

After all, it is just a battlefield in a third country that does not belong to the Kingdom of Ghosts or the Kingdom of Fire.

"I have a general understanding of the situation in the Country of Rain. I will send others to manage it. You can go down and rest. The intelligence system stationed in the Country of Rain will be completed as soon as possible."

"yes."

Nonoyu didn't ask any questions, bowed, turned and left.

The land of rain.

In the cave, the surrounding walls are inlaid with candlesticks, which hold candles that light the fire, driving away the darkness in the cave.

Yamafeng followed Danzo into the temporary base at the root. In the center of the cave, there were ten ninjas standing there.

They are ninjas from the Daming Mansion of the Land of Fire.

Although Konoha Village is a symbol of the Fire Country's military power, the daimyo of various countries also understand that eggs are not put in one basket.

No matter how powerful the Ninja Village is, sometimes the interests of the Ninja Village and the Daming Mansion are not consistent and there is a competitive relationship.

Even though Danzo had a good relationship with the Fire Nation Daimyo when he was young, in addition to friendship, they were also rivals.

But in today's environment, Konoha and the Daming Prefecture can only resolve the international pressure by putting aside all prejudices and uniting with the outside world.

When Danzo came here, he didn't say anything. Standing there, he put terrible pressure on these ten ninjas, causing cold sweat to break out on their foreheads.

The name of Shinobi's Darkness. Just a ninja who knows this name should understand what kind of existence this is.

Ninja Darkness.

Compared to the majestic Hokage, this root leader is more awe-inspiring.

Act from the root and do whatever it takes. Whether it is the life of the enemy or the life of one of your own, they are all expendable objects, and there is an equal relationship.

This kind of organization that doesn't even care about itself and this kind of behavior is the most terrifying thing.

Danzo turned his head back slightly to signal, and Shanfeng nodded, took a step forward, took out an iron box from his arms, which contained capsule-shaped medicine, and distributed these medicines to ten ninjas.

The ten ninjas hesitated for a moment, then quickly swallowed the capsule. Then, the chakra that spread the evil aura erupted from the bodies of the ten ninjas, and behind them, tails of chakra materialization began to condense.

His lips and corners of his eyes turned black, as if he had turned into an evil demon.

They held their heads, fell to the ground in agony, twisted their bodies desperately, and yelled crazily.

Shanfeng jumped back and put a safe distance away from these experimental ninjas.

Danzo looked coldly at the group of Damingfu ninjas who were receiving the power of the tailed beasts, with a cold expression in his eyes, not caring whether these people were dead or alive.

Rather, this is the sacrifice that must be made in order to win.

Because the daimyo also had the same idea.

In this era of great strife, the Fire Nation should also change its attitude towards other countries.

Weakness and compromise cannot bring peace. Only strength and fighting can make surrounding countries extinguish those ideas that should not arise.

The Land of Rain is the first step.

All future provocations should be responded to simply and swiftly, rather than finding some so-called balance, compromising with other countries, and giving up one's own interests.

"ah!"

One of the ninjas screamed in pain, his eyeballs were bloodshot and bleeding, and then he curled up on the ground and became motionless.

The violent tailed beast chakra also quickly disappeared from his body.

Shanfeng shook his head slightly.

The first loser appeared, and the second one must be coming soon.

Sure enough, after Shanfeng finished his thoughts, a second ninja appeared in the same dead state.

Then came the third, then the fourth... until the seventh person died, the remaining three lay exhausted on the ground, with fear and a touch of excitement in their eyes, breathing heavily.

"Congratulations on your new strength. This strength of yours will also become the necessary cornerstone for the growth of the Fire Nation."

Shanfeng showed a kind smile and gave the three ninjas the respect they deserved without hesitation.

Now that the interests of the Daming Palace and Konoha are aligned, the stronger the Daming Palace becomes, the more secure Konoha will be.

At least when such a joint agreement will expire, it is estimated that it will only be possible if the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Thunder fall completely.

These two countries are the most active in the ninja world against the Land of Fire and Konoha.

Whenever there is a problem between the Fire Country and Konoha, these two countries must be the first choice.

Shanfeng was not worried at all that these three ninjas who had gained new powers would betray the Daming Mansion.

These people are all 'ninja slaves' trained by the Daming Mansion since childhood.

They are said to be ninjas, but in fact their status is similar to that of brainwashed slaves.

The difference is that they have the power of ninjas.

Compared with the ninjas kept in captivity by the isolated island merchants, the idea of ​​enslavement is more serious. It has been deeply rooted in his soul and will and cannot be eradicated.

When they were born, the idea they accepted was to be loyal to the daimyo, and the daimyo was their belief.

And once human beings lose their faith, they will become walking zombies and empty shells.

Shanfeng also had to lament the daimyo's skill. None of the people who sat in the leadership positions of the five major countries were simple people.

"Let's bring in the next group of people. The three of them alone are not enough to turn things around. This time, we not only have to suppress Yuyin Village again, but also deter the Kingdom of Ghosts."

Danzo spoke firmly.

Although he wanted to defeat the Kingdom of Demons immediately, he also knew that this was very unrealistic for Konoha now.

Then, we can only establish prestige through the Kingdom of Rain, so that the Kingdom of Ghosts can restrain its actions against the Kingdom of Fire in the future.

Throughout the history of great ninja wars, the battles between big countries have always used the survival of small countries to determine each other's strength.

This time is no exception.

It can only be said that the Rain Country is very cleverly located in this area, and it has become a pawn in the hands of the Ghost Country and the Fire Country very cleverly.

He really wanted to see how the Kingdom of Ghosts could break the blockade arranged by the Kingdom of Fire in the Kingdom of Rain without being able to enter directly.

Rely on those so-called new military ninja tools?

Danzo's eyes flashed with light.

◎

"One hundred people were invested...only 21 survived. The completion rate is much better than the previous data."

After exiting the cave base, Shanfeng held a list with the names of seventy-nine people on it, marked with a red cross, meaning they had died during the experiment.

"Has the collection of their body information been completed?"

Danzo is concerned about this issue.

"Yes, the collection has been completed. I believe that with this part of precious data, the headquarters will speed up the formation of the tailed beast capsule, and it can become a regular carrying item for the roots in the future. The overall strength of the roots will at least increase by one level.

.”

The future is bright for Mountain Wind Feeling Roots.

This is also the root's confidence to deal with the Third Hokage's forces in the future.

Although there are strong calls within Konoha for Tsunade, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, to become the Fifth Hokage, Yamafaze does not want her to come back and become the Fifth Hokage.

There is only one Fifth Hokage who can bring strength to Konoha, and that is their root leader Shimura Danzo.

Today's Konoha does not need a leader who tolerates and compromises with others, but a powerful faction to turn the tide.
To be continued...
