Chapter 416: The 3rd Raikage: We will pay for the losses, who is willing to join the war?

The Sand Village is now extremely poor, and it is impossible for them to fight a war.

Unless someone is willing to send a blood pack, the village can get a big boost.

It would be even better if you are willing to bear the losses of war.

We, the Sand Village, are willing to join the war!!!

The Cloud Village doesn't have much else but a lot of money and resources. As long as the benefits are enough, do you think the Sand Village will be tempted?

With the threats from Konoha and Sand Village, would the Iwagakure dare to attack the Kumogakure?

I'm afraid Oonoki would have to consider the consequences before giving orders.

Far away in the Land of Lightning, the Cloud Ninja Village was also discussing the same issue.

Because some high-level officials have doubts. If the village goes to war with the Mist Village, what will happen to the Rock Village?

Yes, what about the Iwagakure?

These years, the village has been riding on the Iwagakure's head and shitting on them. If Ohnoki gets the chance, he will definitely stab them in the back.

"Humph, the Iwagakure is nothing to worry about."

The Third Raikage said arrogantly:

"Everyone, don't forget that we are allied with Konoha. Konoha is our ally. If the village starts a war, Konoha needs to stand on our side."

"Lord Raikage, I don't question your opinion, but Konoha has just ended the war with the Sand Village. Can they really start a war for us?"

"Even if Konoha is willing, how much war potential do they have?"

The Third Raikage glanced at the senior executive who raised the question, thought for a moment, and asked back:

"You think Konoha's war potential is not enough, then do you know how many ninjas there are in Konoha who can participate in the war?

Konoha's war potential was exhausted due to lack of funds and resources, and the same was true for the Sand Village.

If the village provides this funding and resources, do you think the Iwagakure is still a threat?"

"........."

Good guy.

All the senior executives were shocked by the generosity of the Third Raikage.

But if you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Konoha and Sand Village had just ended the war, so they didn't have much war potential. It wasn't because they lacked combat ninjas, but because they had no money and no resources.

You don't have it, but the Cloud Ninja Village does.

As long as there are enough resources, Konoha and Sand Village will unite and send a large army of ninjas to guard the border in a matter of minutes to see if your Iwagakure dares to move.

As long as the Iwagakure can be restricted, the loss of resources and money by the Kumogakure is worth it.

As for the question of whether the Sand Village agrees, no one will ask because this question is stupid.

"Who else has objections now?"

If possible, the Third Raikage never thought of going to war with the Mist Village. It was because the Mist Village was too bullying, or in other words, those bastards of the Hyuga clan were too bullying.

Ever since the battle in the disputed waters escalated, the ninjas of the Hyuga clan have always been at the forefront, causing trouble for the Kumogakure. As long as the ninjas of the Hyuga clan are present, the battle can start at any time.

As time went by, both sides became more and more angry.

What's the use of the Gou Ba restraint? Go to hell. I can't restrain myself at all now. I just want to kill the other person or be killed by him.

Sometimes the reasons for the outbreak of a war seem somewhat dramatic, and wars break out in such a dramatic way.

Five days after the Kumogakure notified Konoha, the war broke out.

When the news reached Konoha, the Third Hokage was completely numb.

The outside world has been very lively these days, and Konoha has been very lively as well, because the news of Utane Koharu taking the blame has spread, and then the whole of Konoha has become boiling.

Because of the impact of the war, countless families were hurt, and at this time Konoha was at its strongest anti-war sentiment.

Suddenly, news broke out that the reason why the Cloud Village formed an alliance with Konoha was to start a war, and the reason why Konoha and the Cloud Village formed an alliance was because of the hard persuasion of the advisory elder Utatane Koharu, which finally moved the Third Hokage, and so the two villages became allies.

When the news spread, countless villagers in Konoha were shocked.

The village spent three years finally defeating the Sand Village. They thought they could live a peaceful life, but before long, a new war is coming?

What the hell are you thinking?

You deserve to die, Utatane Koharu.

For a moment, all kinds of insults and accusations swarmed towards Utane Koharu.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally, Koharu Utane was still overwhelmed by the villagers' saliva, so much so that she was pointed at and criticized wherever she went.

In the past, no one dared to do this to her.

Because she is the village's advisory elder, a high-ranking member of the village, and has a noble status, now everything has changed.

In the eyes of the villagers, she was just a rat crossing the street. Wherever she went, she would be pointed at and cursed. Fortunately, the villagers remained rational, and the pointing and cursing had reached the limit, and there was no incident of attacking the village leaders.

Because of this incident, the Third Hokage had a lot more wrinkles on his face.

He was still foolishly hoping that there would be no war between the Cloud Village and the Mist Village, and that it would just be a minor friction. However, after a few days, new news came. It was not a friction, but a real war had broken out.

Yagura allowed the situation to escalate, and the Third Raikage lost his patience, which eventually led to a war between the two villages.

Yagura allowed the lunatic from the Kaguya clan to provoke the Kumogakure, and the Kumogakure became angry after being provoked again and again. If you dare to make trouble, I will beat you.

See who gives in first.

The number of villagers who oppose the war and protest in the village continues to increase. These people gather outside the Hokage's office building every day, causing serious impact on the entry and exit of the Hokage's office building.

The Third Hokage had no way to deal with this.

Under normal circumstances, the police and the Anbu could have dispersed the crowd, but at this critical juncture, the Third Hokage did not dare to take any extreme actions for fear of igniting the anger of the villagers.

Go ahead and curse, if it doesn’t work, just curse Tenneko Haru harshly, curse for a while, and when the anger subsides, the villagers will naturally evacuate.

In desperation, the Third Hokage had no choice but to lie down.

Anyway, it was Utane Koharu who was being scolded, not him.

Konoha was bustling with waves of resistance rising one after another. Over in the Sand Village, the Third Kazekage, who had just returned to the village and had no time to rest, ran to the Kazekage's office with a dazed look in his eyes.

"Chiyo, what do you mean by Kumogakure?"

Chiyo thought for a while and answered uncertainly: "The general meaning seems to be that the Cloud Village and the Mist Village have already started fighting, and the old guy Raikage hopes that the village can prepare for war."

"The Kumogakure won't let the village work in vain. They will pay the village a sum of money and a batch of resources for the village's post-war development. At the same time, they will bear the cost of the war. What we need to do is to unite with Konoha and deter the Iwagakure when the Iwagakure shows a tendency to start a war."
