Chapter 554: Mizukage vs. Narutokage (Part )
"Oh? You mean declaring war...right?" Qingsi asked slowly and calmly.
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's ridiculous question, Kiyoshi really wanted to laugh.
Is it possible that the Third Hokage has become senile and confused, or has he lost all respect for his position as Hokage?
You know, it was Konoha that first sent ninjas to mix in with the Sand Village troops and intervene in the war between Kirigakure and Sand Village!
If there is a declaration of war, it should be Konoha declaring war on Kirigakure!
After all, although Kirigakure does have the idea of unifying the ninja world and will launch a war against Konoha sooner or later, Kirigakure has not taken any action against Konoha at the moment.
Therefore, no matter from which perspective, Sarutobi Hiruzen's so-called questioning about declaring war is untenable.
Therefore, before he finished speaking, a sneer full of sarcasm unconsciously appeared on Qingsi's face.
It looks like Konoha is going to lose their Hokage today!
Sarutobi Hiruzen, since you are so eager to come up and give yourself away, then I will grant your wish!
As the thought flashed through his mind, a fierce murderous intent suddenly emerged in Qingsi's heart!
.........
.........
.........
"Then! Just consider it as Kirigakure's declaration of war on Konoha..." Kiyoshi's tone was filled with indifference, and he spoke in a cold voice. Although his voice was light, what he said was indescribably heavy, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Fugaku beside him feel their hearts sink to the bottom in an instant.
At the same time, Qingsi did not stop his actions.
At the same time as he declared war on Sarutobi Hiruzen, he first casually threw the captured Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Uzumaki Kushina into his Takama-ga-hara space with a time-stop effect, and then directly launched an attack on Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Young name Biguna May Rain!!!"
A large amount of Yin-Yang Release Chakra black rods were released by Qingji from the Takama-ga-hara space, and then instantly restored to their original size. They were then shot towards Sarutobi Hiruzen at an extremely fast speed, making bursts of piercing and sharp sounds of breaking through the air.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, which was as dark as the bottom of a pot, became even gloomier when he saw this.
There was nothing wrong with what Qingsi said, it was just that he was unwilling and unable to admit it.
If he really admitted that Konoha was the first to participate in the war, the reputation he had accumulated over the years, as well as the "peace" concept inherited by Konoha from the time of the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama, would all collapse.
After all, since the ninja world entered the ninja village era or since Konoha was established, Konoha has never taken the initiative to initiate a foreign war!
You know, this time it was indeed their Konoha that intervened in the war first, and Qingji's act of coming to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki can be interpreted as revenge against their Konoha.
Not to mention, a large number of Konoha's ninja troops have already gathered at the border and are on standby, and Hanzo of the Rain Country should be almost ready by now!
It can be said that the war between Konoha and Kirigakure has already entered a state of being on the verge of breaking out, and the arrow is on the string and has to be shot!
Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen just habitually used his usual official tone to accuse Kiyoshi of declaring war.
However, Qing Si's direct response and the reckless declaration of war made him feel a little broken.
Hey......
If only Danzo and his Root elite were still there, they would do all the dirty and tiring work, and once something went wrong, he could just push the blame onto Danzo without thinking twice. How could he let him fall into such a situation?
You know, he has been cooperating with Danzo in this way for so many years.
The tacit understanding couldn't be better...!
After all, those two people, Wolong and Fengchu, are more despicable than humans and cannot be trusted at all.
He has to take personal responsibility for everything, and everything will be blamed on him in the end...!
All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind one by one, and Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression suddenly became firm.
In any case, since things have come to this point, he has no more choice but to keep the Fourth Mizukage who dared to break into their Konoha alone to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!
"Earth Escape: Earth Current City Wall!!!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen clasped his hands together and quickly completed three seals. Then, a large amount of brown soil came out of his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, a seemingly extremely solid and thick earth wall formed in front of him.
However, without any specific information, Sarutobi Hiruzen underestimated the black chakra stick.
Even though the "Earth Flow Wall" was erected before the black sticks were shot over, the defense of the earth wall was unable to block all of the chakra black sticks made of Yin-Yang escape!
So, the next second.
Although many black sticks were blocked by the earth wall, quite a few of them instantly penetrated the earth wall and pierced into Sarutobi Hiruzen's body without any reduction in momentum.
However, Sarutobi Hiruzen is, after all, a seasoned Kage-level warrior. Although he has not stepped into the battlefield to fight for life and death for many years, the keen combat instinct he has cultivated over the years still allows him to perceive the danger in time.
At the moment when the earth wall was pierced and collapsed, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally launched the "Substitution Technique" in a very dangerous way, avoiding the fate of being killed by Seiji in a single encounter...!
