Chapter 559: Rapid Advances in War
The night became increasingly darker, as if a mysterious brush was painting the endless darkness layer by layer.
At this time, in the Hidden Mist Village, Black Zetsu, who had gone to the Hidden Cloud Village with Nagato to capture the Jinchuriki and was now helping to organize and summarize the information sent back by White Zetsu's clones from all over the Ninja World in the Anbu headquarters, suddenly heard the faint voice of Kiyoshi transmitted through his chakra in his ears.
"Black Zetsu! Come!"
After receiving Qingsi's call, Black Zetsu paused for a moment.
Excited heart, trembling hands.
In addition, he had just sensed the powerful aura emitted by the Outer Path Demon Statue after it absorbed the last of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
At this moment, Black Zetsu has already realized that the time to "resurrect" his mother Kaguya has come!!!
Therefore, Black Zetsu immediately followed the direction where he sensed the breath of the Outer Path Demon Statue at the fastest speed, turned into a pool of fluid "black mud", and sneaked away from underground at a high speed.

.........
"Father!"
Looking at her standing quietly by the lake, looking up at the bright yellow jade plate in the sky that was sprinkled with soft moonlight, there was uncontrollable excitement in Hei Jue's tone.
A thousand years of planning, a thousand years of waiting.
finally......
"Go prepare with Nagato! We will begin removing the seal shortly!"
Qingsi remained in his actions, and spoke softly with his back to Black Zetsu, but the words he said made Qingsi's back infinitely elevated in Black Zetsu's heart.
"Okay! Father!" As soon as the words fell, Black Zetsu responded directly.
He had really been looking forward to this moment for a long time. After all, rescuing his mother Kaguya from the seal was his only mission!
-----------------
The battlefield of the Kingdom of Wind.
After receiving the support sent from Angkor Fortress, Yagura and Mukai, who were extremely frustrated and unable to achieve effective results and final victory due to their huge numerical disadvantage, immediately launched a counterattack against Konoha and Amegakure.
On Otsutsuki Mukai's side, the Kirigakure Police Force led by Otsutsuki Tenshin arrived.
With the help of the rapid mobility of Angkor Fortress, although the perception ninjas of Konoha sensed the rapid arrival of the support from the Hidden Mist Village, before they could pass on the information, Otsutsuki Tenshin and the Hidden Mist Police Force he led had already arrived at the battlefield like a god descending from the sky.
Moreover, before the Angkor Fortress left for the next battlefield for delivery, Shennong, at the request of Otsutsuki Tenshin, also covered the Konoha troops below with a round of chakra artillery fire.
Therefore, it was no surprise that when the elite jonin in the Konoha army were rapidly killed by the combined forces of Otsutsuki Tenshin and Otsutsuki Mukai, the morale of the entire Konoha army had reached its lowest point and was on the verge of collapse...!
On Yagura's side, the first and second ANBU teams, led by Ken, arrived.
However, it must be said that although Hanzo Salamander is no longer at his peak strength, at least in terms of his perception of danger and combat intuition, he lives up to his title of "demigod".
Therefore, at the same time, Ken led two teams of Anbu to jump down from the Angkor Fortress and rushed directly into the formation of the Rain Hidden Ninja.
Realizing that the development of things was completely different from his expectations, and suddenly feeling an inexplicable threat of death lingering around him, Hanzo of the Salamander directly ordered the Amegakure troops to retreat.
However, how could Yagura and Ken let the duck that was already in their hands fly away?
Therefore, Salamander Hanzo could only constantly abandon his subordinates to "block the knife" for him during the pursuit.
Then, Hanzo finally managed to escape back to the Land of Rain after leaving behind most of the Rain Ninjas to cover his retreat.
However, the reason why Yagura and Ken did not continue to pursue Hanzo of the Salamander was because the garrison troops of the Land of Earth led by the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon had already captured the Hidden Rain Village like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves!
Therefore, the "good luck" of the Salamander Hanzo ended here.
Not long after he fled back to the Land of Rain, he ran into the team that was sent by the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon to intercept him after the Hidden Rain Village was captured.
The members of this team are Yahiko, Konan, and Hoshigaki Kisame.
After many twists and turns, history has finally returned to the "right track".
Yahiko, who was supposed to die because of Hanzo, the Salamander, sounded the death knell for the "demigod".
After a fierce battle, Hanzo of the Salamander had his chakra drained by Yahiko and Kisame using water jutsu, and was finally blown to pieces by the horrific explosion of Konan's "Paper God's Technique"...!

the other side.
After receiving the order from Seiji, the Kirigakure troops stationed in the Bear Country immediately split into two groups, led by the current clan leader of the Crystal-style Miyajima clan, Kimiko Miyajima, and the current clan leader of the Boiling-style Terumi clan, Hiroshi Terumi. They charged into the territory of the Fire Country and, in accordance with Seiji's instructions, eliminated Konoha's border troops one by one.
The huge gap in hard power was like a chasm, which meant that Konoha's border troops were wiped out without any effective resistance.
However, given the "rich" experience of several previous attacks, Konoha's border troops eventually passed the news of the Hidden Mist Village's raid on the Land of Fire back to Konoha Village.
However, at this time, Konoha's internal affairs were not in order yet. After the death of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the Konoha's Dragon Mizutomon En was being beaten on the battlefield in the Land of Wind.
Therefore, as one of the only surviving former Konoha high-level F4, Konohagakure Utatane Koharu can be said to be unable to support the family alone.
After all, with her ability, vision and capacity, she simply couldn't handle such a chaotic situation.
So, as a last resort, Utane Koharu had no choice but to use her eloquence to ask Tsunade, who still suffered from hemophobia, to temporarily take over the position of Hokage. With her reputation as one of Konoha's "Three Ninjas" and her prestige as a descendant of the Senju clan and the granddaughter of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, she barely suppressed the undercurrents in the village.
But it was too late.
The Hidden Mist Village has completed the encirclement of the Konoha Village from the east and west, and may launch further attacks at any time!
