But for the sake of the Iron Kingdom, he must intervene.

Mifune said, "Hokage-sama, Raikage-sama, please do not vent your anger on the Iron Country. I am here to set an example on behalf of all the people of the Iron Country and will never help any party!"

"If war can be avoided, then avoid it as much as possible. If it is really unavoidable, then please wait until you two adults withdraw from the Iron Country before fighting!"

The atmosphere froze.

In the end, Tsunade and the Raikage both decided to give Mifune some face.

We'll make plans after we withdraw from the Iron Kingdom.

Chapter 120 Konoha's Internal Ghost

If we don't count the five major countries, the Iron Kingdom is not a small country either, with a land area of ​​about one-sixth of the Fire Kingdom and about half of the Water Kingdom.

Therefore, even if the ninja troops wanted to evacuate from the Iron Country, it would not be fast. This journey can be regarded as the last respite time for Konoha and Kumogakure.

But both the Hokage and the Raikage gave the order to cut off the final connection with each other.

After a whole day of negotiations, they all realized that it was impossible for either side to give in first.

The final outcome is just fighting!

In the Konoha camp, the temporary meeting room was already full of people. Tsunade and more than 20 senior ninjas, led by the patriarchs of various families, were discussing around the temporary sand table.

Standing directly opposite Tsunade was her personally appointed chief of staff, Nara Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku held a baton and pointed it at the Fire Nation first: "Supplies are a key when the war starts. We must ensure the safety of the source of supplies."

"So we need to send at least a thousand Chunins to protect the Daimyo, and then allocate another two thousand to transport supplies. We also need to leave a third of the people in the village to cooperate with the Genin to protect the civilians."

"In the end, we will have about 8,000 people available for frontline combat. We have already brought 5,000 here, and there are still 3,000 troops left to be deployed."

As he spoke, the baton pointed towards the Kingdom of Wind again.

"The Sand Village is our ally. Although they have almost no high-end combat power, the total number of Jonin and Chunin is not much less than ours. We can promise them some benefits in this war and ask them to send as many people as possible to support us."

"In general, we are at an advantage in terms of mid- and low-end combat power. The only shortcoming is the lack of high-end combat power."

Now there is no trace of the Sand Village itself, and the only one who has encountered this level of strength, Chiyo, is the last remaining force to protect the village and it is impossible for her to send out to help.

On the Konoha side, the third generation died in battle, Danzo is missing, Jiraiya is traveling around, and the only Kage-level player currently standing on the stage, Tsunade, is not known for her combat ability.

On the contrary, the Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village has always been famous for his fighting ability, and they also have the two pillars, the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails, to dominate the field.

The damage that the tailed beasts can cause to low- and mid-range combat forces is extremely terrifying.

After a thorough analysis, Shikaku finally concluded that if the Hidden Cloud Village fought with all its might, the war would still be a fifty-fifty outcome.

Although they have some small advantages, they may not necessarily win.

Yamanaka Inoichi, who was beside Nara Shikaku, said, "Shikaku, don't be too pessimistic. It's not like the Hidden Cloud Village is the only one with Jinchūriki. We also have the Nine-Tails."

"I heard that Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure, is known as the perfect Jinchuriki. I'm worried whether that little guy Naruto can fight against him." Shikaku said a little annoyed.

At this time, Tsunade, who was sitting at the main seat, clapped her hands and interrupted: "Okay, the battle hasn't started yet, what are you saying to discourage me? I think you are just getting old."

Hearing this, Lu Jiu touched his nose and complained in his heart: "How dare you say that I am old? You are obviously the oldest person here."

In fact, Tsunade was also extremely uneasy at this time. She didn't expect that even though Konoha had shown its strength, the Hidden Cloud Village still didn't take Konoha seriously.

It's just too much of a lie.

After thinking for a while, Tsunade took out a pen and paper and said calmly: "I will write a letter to Jiraiya first. Shikaku, you write a letter to the Iwagakure Village in the name of Konoha, promising them some benefits, and see if you can get them to join the team to attack Kumogakure."

"As ordered!"

While the jonin were discussing, the special jonin patrolling outside the tent switched teams.

When Mao Yue Xi Yan returned to the camp, she saw that most people were writing letters, some to their spouses, some to their parents, and some to their children.

Before the war, most people would write a suicide note, except for orphans who had no family.

Mao Yueyan has no family, and her fiancé who almost became a family member has died.

But after thinking about it, she found a pen and paper and wrote a letter, beginning with the note "Suicide note from Uzuki Yugao - to Uzumaki Naruto".

"."

"."

On the other side, the camp of the Hidden Cloud Village was also discussing the upcoming battle with Konoha.

On the left and right sides of the Raikage Ai are the two great Chuuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village, the Eight-Tails Killer Bee and the Two-Tails Two-Bit Yokuto.

Directly opposite is the hidden talent of the elite female jonin of Kumogakure, Samui.

She said, "Lord Raikage, if we can capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki this time, can you let me handle him first?"

"Okay!" Knowing that she was eager for revenge, the Raikage nodded in agreement.

After all, it is said that Samui's only brother, Atsuyi, died at the hands of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

In this war, the goal of Kumogakure is not only to defeat Konoha, but also to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, gather the three tailed beasts and further defeat the other four countries to completely dominate the ninja world.

As for why Kumogakure dared to think so, it was because they were able to know the internal strength of Konoha.

And the source of the information was very reliable. Last time, they knew exactly how many people in Konoha's escort team launched the attack.

Although he was killed by the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the end, that can only be blamed on the Raikage's own carelessness. He did not expect that Konoha would actually send a Jinchuriki to escort him.

Moreover, he did not discuss with the source of the information and immediately sent people to attack after receiving the news.

The person who passed the message to him didn't even know that he would go directly to cause trouble for Konoha.

Therefore, the blame for that failure was entirely his own, and he could not blame anyone else.

The Raikage sneered and said, "Write a letter to Bai, who we have cooperated with before, and tell her that we can help her conquer a small country after the war is over. Now it's time for her to help us."

"Brother, isn't she no longer in the Land of Thunder?" Kirabi asked curiously.

"Haha, I forgot to tell you, I received a letter from her just yesterday."

The Raikage smiled and said, "She said that if we want to attack Konoha, she can always provide us with information. We can write to the dock in the Snow Country to contact her."

"I'll do it right away." Samui immediately took out paper and pen to write a letter to Bai.

Why would the Raikage and the Kumogakure Jonin believe Bai? Because they have cooperated with Bai before.

When Shiro exposed the dirty laundry of the two major families of Konoha, she was looking for the newspaper office of the Hidden Cloud Village. At that time, the Raikage invited her for a talk.

The Raikage asked her at the time: "Why do you have such great hostility towards Konoha that you would publish this newspaper to discredit Konoha."

Bai told the Raikage: "She is from the Hidden Mist Village. Her whole family died at the hands of Konoha. And that is not a smear, it is the truth. She has someone inside Konoha, and he is an important figure in Konoha."

At that time, the Raikage found it strange that such an important figure in Konoha would be connected with an exiled ninja from Kirigakure.

Bai didn't tell him, but just sold him a message that the Third Hokage of Konoha and the Kazekage of Sunagakure would both be attacked.

At first, the Raikage didn't believe it, but in the end it was confirmed that not only were they attacked, but they all died.

The Raikage was greatly shocked at the time, but he didn't believe it and went to Bai to buy information several more times.

The results are all correct. Tsunade will become Hokage, the One-Tail Jinchūriki will be deported, and how many people will Konoha send to escort the One-Tail Jinchūriki?

Not a single thing was missed.

The Raikage guessed that Haku must have secretly controlled a high-ranking official in Konoha. At first he suspected it was Danzo, but Danzo had disappeared.

That would probably be one of Utane Koharu or Mito Kado En. Apart from them, no one else is qualified to know what's going on in Konoha.

after all

It couldn't be possible that the one being controlled by Bai was the Fifth Hokage Tsunade himself.

"With Haku's inner demon here, Konoha will surely be defeated!"

But who the traitor is is really a matter of curiosity.

At this time, the Raikage still didn't know that the so-called traitor he mentioned was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki who had killed 300 people from Kumogakure and whom he now wanted to capture.

Uzumaki Naruto!

"."

"."

Early in the morning, Naruto opened the window to let some air circulate.

Then he went to the bathroom with a toothbrush and a toothcup to brush his teeth with water. His skin in the mirror was smooth and rosy, but his temperament was a little drowsy compared to when he just woke up in the morning.

After a while, when I finished brushing my teeth and put down the toothbrush holder to go to the toilet, the white "One" phone rang on time.

Naruto didn't rush to answer the call. Instead, he looked around carefully to make sure there was no one around and that Ino, who was sleeping in the bedroom, was breathing evenly and was asleep, before he pressed the answer button.

"Hey!"

"Good morning, Naruto-sama!"

"Well, good morning."

Naruto yawned and asked Haku what was wrong.

Bai on the other side said: "It is estimated that Xin has arrived in the Iron Kingdom today. If the Raikage contacts me at that time, should I really give him the information?"

"Last time, he attacked your team without consulting me. This is enough to prove that this person is completely out of control."

Regarding this matter, Naruto also felt that the Raikage was not a good person.

They came to attack without any warning, and at first he actually suspected for a while whether it was Iwagakure's army.

Naruto was almost tricked by him, but fortunately, he was strong enough and could still control everything.

Next, the Uzumaki organization’s first step towards the world will be to weaken the Land of Lightning.

Kick him out of the five major countries, and then replace him with a new country controlled by the vortex.

Looking outside, the snow had stopped at dawn. A cold wind blew in my face, making my face and thighs feel a little cold.

Naruto smiled and whispered softly: "Sell it, of course I will sell it to him, but the information I sell to him this time is not guaranteed to be authentic."

"Who made him disobey last time?"

"Yes!"

After chatting for a few minutes, we disconnected.
