Let them run first, and then let the ninja coalition of the Fudo and Toru countries feel the despair!

About a quarter of an hour later, after the Konoha ninjas had rested enough, Hatake Akira prepared to lead them to chase the fleeing Fuuto and Ryokan ninjas.

"Everyone stand still!"

Hatake Akira shouted, then used the new Flying Thunder God Technique, leading a Konoha ninja force of more than 3000 people, and instantly disappeared from the spot.

The next second, Hatake Akira locked onto the fleeing allied ninja forces of Fuuto and Toshi. As the space fluctuated like water ripples, a group of Konoha ninjas descended from the sky and abruptly blocked the way of the allied ninja forces of Fuuto and Toshi!

"Surrender without killing!"

"Surrender without killing!"

"Surrender without killing!"

Without waiting for Hatake Akira to give the order, the energized Konoha ninjas raised their arms and shouted, further undermining the morale of the combined ninja forces of the Fudo and Tofu countries.

The best strategy is to attack the enemy's plan, and the best strategy is to attack the enemy's heart first. These two strategies are always the best.

There was a ruckus...

The combined ninja forces of the Fuu and Toru countries had lost their spirit at this point. Facing Hatake Akira and the group of Konoha ninjas standing behind him, they no longer had the slightest thought of resisting.

They threw the ninja tools in their hands to the ground, tied their hands and feet, and waited for Hatake Akira to make the final judgment on them.

"You made the best decision of your life."

Hatake Akira's voice was very soft, but it could be accurately heard by everyone. "I won't let my subordinates hurt you, but you must not do anything stupid, otherwise the consequences will be something you cannot bear."

After warning the allied ninja forces of the two countries of Fuu and Tu, Hatake Akira turned around and gave orders to the Konoha ninjas.

"I order that all the ninjas from the two countries be captured and their chakras be sealed!"

"Yes, Master Ming!"

All the Konoha ninjas reached their peak collectively, rubbing their fists and rushing forward, instantly surrounding the combined ninja forces of the Fuu and Toru countries.

Chapter 256: The Kingdom of Wind escaped, and the Hidden Iwagakure Village was in mourning.

The combined ninja forces of the Fuu-do and To-no-Kuni countries were very large, and because they were trying to capture Taki-no-Kuni, their forces were somewhat dispersed.

The Konoha ninja troops led by Hatake Akira captured a number of ninjas from the two countries of Fudo, but they could actually only be considered a part of their personnel.

But even the part of the combined ninja forces of the two countries, the number of personnel reached about 5000.

It can be said that Hatake Akira gained a lot from this trip. Not only did it hit the morale of the ninja coalition between the two countries of Fuuto, but it also made the alliance between the two countries exist in name only.

After all, Ōnoki is dead, so there is no point for Kazekage Rasa to continue holding on alone.

"Ohnoki is dead..."

On the other side of the Takiguni battlefield, Kazekage Rasa had already learned of Ōnoki's death, "We lost, miserably!"

His expression suddenly became listless, and Fengying Luosha seemed to have aged ten years.

"I never thought that Ōnoki couldn't even withstand a single blow from Hatake Akira!"

Fengying Luosha sighed, and then a deep worry and fear rose in his heart.

Among all the Kages in the five hidden villages, Kazekage Rasa is definitely the weakest.

It's not that Luo Sha's strength is really bad, but Fengying Luo Sha's strength is greatly affected by the terrain. Luo Sha is very strong in the desert, but if it changes to other terrains...

Luo Sha's strength is really not impressive.

After all, Kazekage Rasa's entire strength lies in his "Magnetic Style Sand Gold". Once he leaves the desert environment, his ability of Magnetic Style Sand Gold will be greatly reduced.

This shortcoming is fatal, causing Luo Sha's overall strength to drop sharply.

As the shadow of a village, he absolutely cannot just stay in his own territory and act tyrannically. He also needs to lead his troops to attack and conquer other areas.

With this prerequisite, Kazekage Rasa can basically be called the weakest and most restricted Kage among the five hidden villages.

Luo Sha himself has a very clear understanding of this.

"Yashamaru, organize your troops and retreat."

Kazekage Rasa had already started to retreat. He called his brother-in-law Yashamaru and ordered him to retreat.

"Yes, Kazekage-sama!"

Yashamaru didn't hesitate, took the order and turned to leave.

Looking at Yashamaru's departing back, Kazekage Rasa sighed heavily again, with a miserable look on his face.

"It's over, everything is over..."

"That guy Hatake Akira is growing too fast. This war has lost all suspense."

Standing up, Kazekage Rasa straightened his clothes and said, "It's time to surrender to Konoha, otherwise the Kingdom of Wind and the Sand Village will be doomed!"

As he spoke, Kazekage Rasa pushed the door and walked out. He needed to gather the ninja troops of the Wind Country as soon as possible and escape from the battlefield of Taki Country as quickly as possible.

……

The news that Kazekage Rasa was going to take the ninjas of the Wind Country to escape from the battlefield of Taki Country reached the ears of the ninjas of the Earth Country at the first opportunity.

But after the Tsuchikage Ōnoki was gone, it was difficult for the many voices within the Earth Country Ninja to reach unity in the first place.

"We can't let the Wind Country ninjas withdraw from the Taki Country battlefield so easily!"

"I also want to condemn Kazekage Luosha's actions, but can we stop him?"

"Or... let's retreat too..."

"Bullshit! We must avenge the Sandaime Tsuchikage-sama!"

"Idiot, didn't you see the intelligence? The Sandaime Tsuchikage was killed instantly by Hatake Akira in one strike!"

"That's right. If you want to continue to take the ninjas in the village to die, I won't stop you, but don't take us with you!"

"Damn it, are you scared?!"

"enough!"

Looking at the crowd arguing endlessly, Akagi, the Tsuchikage Ōnoki's personal bodyguard, finally couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and shouted to stop them.

Akagi was in a bad mood, firstly because Ōnoki died at the hands of Hatake Akira, and secondly because before Ōnoki's death, Akagi was not with Ōnoki because he had to carry out a mission.

As Ōnoki's most trusted subordinate and most capable guard, Akagi is now in great pain.

Even if Akagi had been with Ōnoki at that time, it would have been tantamount to giving his head to Hatake Akira.

But as Ōnoki's bodyguard, Akagi should have died beside Ōnoki, instead of continuing to live after Ōnoki's death.

But at this time, it's too late to say anything. The only thing Akagi can do is to try his best to stabilize the situation in Iwagakure Village and eliminate the many negative impacts of Ōnoki's death on the Earth Kingdom troops.

"I think everyone present will be indifferent to the death of the Sandaime Tsuchikage-sama."

Akatsuki stood up and expressed his opinion with a sad face, "But the death of the Sandaime Tsuchikage-sama is not meaningless. He made us understand what the final outcome of this war will be."

"We failed... This is an indisputable fact..."

"Fengying Luosha has already led his team to evacuate. His evil ambitions must be clear to everyone sitting here."

"Kazekage Luosha, he just wants us to bear the consequences of the failure of the two countries!"

"But even if we know now, we can't do anything about Kazekage Rasa, and we can't do anything about the Kingdom of Wind..."

"But we have to do something, and we have to achieve some results, so that the sacrifice of the Sandaime Tsuchikage-sama will be meaningful!"

"Oh, anyone can say it so nicely."

A high-ranking official from the Iwagakure Village stepped forward and interrupted Akatsuki's impromptu speech, his face full of disdain for Akatsuki.

"After saying so many inspiring words, why don't you explain to me, as the bodyguard of the Sandaime Tsuchikage, why weren't you there when the Sandaime Tsuchikage was in trouble?"

"I..." Chitu was a little speechless, but still slammed a secret order on the table with a gloomy face.

"At that time, I was ordered by the Sandaime Tsuchikage to go to the Rain Village to negotiate with the Salamander Hanzo, so I was unable to protect the Sandaime Tsuchikage!"

On the secret order that Akagi placed on the table, the words "Akatsuki Organization" were clearly written, and the Akatsuki Organization was mentioned more than once.

If Hatake Akira were here, he would definitely realize that this matter was not simple, but unfortunately, Hatake Akira was not here.

The high-ranking ninja of the Iwagakure Village took the secret order in his hand, read it carefully twice, and then nodded to Akagi.

"It is indeed the handwritten order from the Sandaime Tsuchikage-sama. I misunderstood you just now."

This high-ranking official of the Iwagakure Village is also a sensible man, and he also knows that if he doesn't find someone in time to save the collapsing empire, the Iwagakure Village and the Land of Earth will definitely be finished!

The top leaders of the Hidden Rock Village knew exactly what happened in the two hidden villages of the Land of Lightning and the Land of Water.

If the Land of Earth and the Hidden Iwagakure cannot come up with an effective response plan, then they will definitely follow in the footsteps of the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Mist Village, and the situation may even be worse than if the two of them existed.

"In that case, does anyone have anything else to add?"

Seeing this, Akagi did not blame the Iwagakure high-ranking official too much. Instead, he looked around and asked all the Iwagakure high-ranking officials who were sitting there.

"Akagi, continue."

"Okay, I'll continue then."

After receiving the response, Chi Tu nodded and said, "What we need to do most now is to minimize the losses while holding on to the profits we have earned and prepare for a smooth landing next."

"My idea is very simple, that is to quickly abandon the territory of Taki no Kuni that we have captured, and at the same time bring the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki back to the village in secret."

"If the secret is accidentally leaked, as long as Konoha asks us to return the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, then we must do it!"

"At the same time, we must be prepared for war reparations and the worst-case scenario of offering the Sealed Book. The Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Cloud Village have already set a good example for us in this regard."

"Finally, the selection of the village's fourth Tsuchikage must be put on the election schedule as soon as possible. We cannot continue to be leaderless like this."

boom!

As soon as Akagi finished his words, a senior official of the Iwagakure Village slammed the table.

"Akagi, if you weren't the personal guard of the Sandaime Tsuchikage, I would have suspected that you were a spy for Konoha Village!"

The Iwagakure senior officials were very rude, and almost pointed at Akagi's nose and yelled, "I will never agree to handing over the village's sealed book to Konoha!"

"I won't agree to that either!"

"Me too, the Book of Seales is the root of our Iwagakure Village!"

"Chitu, you are digging a grave for the village again!"
