The Hand of God Creates the Strongest Hidden Mist Village

Chapter 47 Danzo, Calm Down

Under normal circumstances, any ninja squad must follow mission orders. Unless there are new orders from superiors, they must not act recklessly or abandon the mission and retreat, no matter what happens!

The orders from the Hidden Mist's higher-ups were to create as much chaos as possible in the heart of the Land of Fire, but there was no standard for the extent of the chaos or the amount of destruction.

Therefore, even though Gouju Cheng achieved such a huge result as destroying the Cangnan supply station, they cannot act recklessly.

But it was also said that this is a normal situation.

Is my brother Cheng an ordinary person?

This guy used reverse spirit communication to send the battle report back to the village, and then led the Mist Blade Squad straight towards the Land of Hot Springs without looking back.

With the help of the Byakugan, these six managed to slip away from Konoha's inescapable search and seizure network.

Rolling her eyes is still too much like a supermodel.

Who would want to play with you if you were using a full map cheat?

Makoto Karatachi's battle report was sent to the Mizukage's office and to the frontline commander, General Yagura.

Meanwhile, after several days of fruitless searching by the Konoha ninja, Fugaku had no choice but to reluctantly send everything back to the village...

……

"That Onoki guy has really gone mad!"

Konoha Village, Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, in the prime of his life, smoked his pipe and frowned slightly as he looked at Danzo Shimura, who was slamming an intelligence scroll onto the table.

"Calm down, Danzo."

"Calm down, how am I supposed to calm down? Hiruzen, look at this for yourself! That guy used two Jinchuriki at the same time to make up for the disadvantage caused by the Battle of Kannabi Bridge!"

Danzo Shimura, furious, pointed at the battle report with a sinister look in his eyes.

"The Four-Tails and the Five-Tails landed on the battlefield at the same time, launching a full-scale attack on our defenses."

"The two battalions originally deployed on the border between the Grassland and the Fire Kingdom have suffered heavy losses, and the defensive line could collapse at any moment. If things go wrong, the war could very well spread into the Land of Fire!"

"Under these circumstances, you still transferred Jiraiya to the Hidden Mist battlefield? Are you insane?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a thick cloud of smoke. Amidst the swirling smoke, his face appeared calm and resolute, like a great mountain, unyielding and steadfast despite wind and rain.

"Danzo, war is like this; there are give and take, gains and losses."

"The simultaneous entry of the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails into the battlefield is indeed unstoppable, but it also shows that the situation in Iwagakure is not optimistic, and our strategy is effective."

Tailed Beast Jinchuriki are incredibly powerful, practically nuclear weapons of the ninja world.

However, this power is basically like nuclear weapons, generally used for deterrence, and rarely allows Jinchūriki to actually set foot on the battlefield.

Although the power of the tailed beasts is strong, their destructive power is unparalleled in the ninja world, like a natural disaster, but they are not invincible.

In the chaos of the battlefield, if one or two people suddenly appear who possess special sealing techniques that can restrict the tailed beast jinchūriki, things could get really messy.

If something goes wrong, at best the tailed beasts will go berserk, indiscriminately attacking friend and foe, and destroying everything.

In severe cases...

The Jinchuriki died, and the Tailed Beast perished.

The Jinchuriki has been captured, and the Tailed Beast has been lost!

Jinchuriki are an extremely important asset to a village. The birth of each Jinchuriki means a massive loss of resources, so it is unacceptable for them to die in battle or be captured.

"While Minato's actions at Kannabi Bridge failed to completely sever Iwagakure's supply lines, they severely damaged their transportation capabilities. Coupled with Kumogakure's entanglement on the eastern front, Iwagakure is now caught in a two-front war."

"Onoki is simply making a desperate gamble now!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke slowly, as if he were strategizing.

In fact, he understood his old buddy's thoughts and plans.

The main force in the Hidden Mist battlefield is the Uchiha clan, while Jiraiya continues to stay in the Hidden Stone battlefield. This not only stabilizes the Hidden Stone battlefield but also allows the Hidden Mist to deplete the Uchiha's manpower as much as possible.

Once the war ends, the Uchiha clan will inevitably suffer heavy casualties and be severely weakened, at which point they will naturally no longer pose a threat to them.

There's even a chance to make the Uchiha clan a thing of the past!

Just like when they dealt with the Senju clan during the Second Shinobi World War...

After the Second Shinobi World War, the Senju clan withdrew from the Konoha stage, and with some policy changes, even the surname itself has become history.

But war is not child's play!

The damage inflicted on Konoha by the Second Shinobi World War took them a full twenty years to recover. Such a huge price to pay was enough to bear once.

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, Kirigakure, which had just started a war with Konoha, was more threatening than Iwagakure, which had already stabilized and was even at its last gasp!

"The first effort will be successful, the second will be weak, and the third will be exhausted. Yan and Koharu are already coordinating the Sunagakure front forces under Orochimaru, and they can come to support Minato at any time."

"As long as we withstand this most intense impact, Onoki's remaining strength will inevitably be exhausted, and then..."

Before he could finish speaking, a figure instantly appeared beside Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"What is it?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly.

He holds small meetings with the Hokage's assistant, and during these times, no one usually disturbs him.

"Lord Hokage."

The suddenly appearing ANBU ninja knelt on the ground, presenting a scroll with special markings: "Hokage-sama, this is a top-priority battle report from Lord Uchiha Fugaku."

Top-level emergency report?!

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a sudden jolt in his heart, a sense of foreboding rising within him.

He took the scroll, and the moment his fingers touched it, the unease in his heart intensified. He steadied himself, broke the seal on the scroll, and slowly unrolled it.

At first, his gaze carried the usual scrutiny and composure, but as line after line of text came into view, the expression on his face, which had been etched with thoughts and shrewdness for decades, began to freeze and crack little by little.

Finally, an extremely terrifying aura of chakra erupted, directly overturning the table in front of him!

The scrolls of paper flew wildly, and the outburst of this ninja hero, who was still at the end of his prime, made Danzo feel a sense of suffocation.

"What on earth happened, Hiruzen!"

Danzo frowned deeply.

He hadn't seen his old friend so out of control in a very, very long time.

Even after Sumo committed suicide and Tsunade left the village two years ago, Hiruzen Sarutobi remained calm.

But at this moment...

"Click!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi snapped the pipe that had been with him for decades in his hand, but he seemed oblivious, his eyes fixed on the scroll in his hand.

"Hiruzen?!"

Danzo Shimura sensed something was amiss and stepped forward, his voice tinged with surprise and doubt, "What exactly are you...?"

He didn't finish his sentence.

Because he also saw some of the contents on the scroll.

I saw that line of text.

[Jonin Kimura and Kazama Gekko have been confirmed dead.]

[Jonin Sarutobi Shinnosuke...confirmed dead]

"What?!"
