Chapter 94 The war officially begins, and death remains!

More than half a month passed in a flash. When Liuyun was still immersed in the leisurely life of training and flirting with girls, a shocking piece of news came from the Hokage Building.

The Rain Nation has officially declared war on the Fire Nation!

Hanzo of the Salamander, who is known as the 'demigod', personally led the Rain Ninja Army to defeat the Konoha Ninja Army, and the situation on the battlefield of the Rain Country was precarious.

Sarutobi Hiruzen launched a war mobilization in Konoha Village and transferred his three powerful disciples to the battlefield in the Rain Country to prepare for the battle against Salamander Hanzo!

The news of the war between the two countries spread like thunder throughout the ninja world, causing a number of small countries to panic, while some big countries seemed eager to try when they heard the news...

The ninja world, which had been at peace for more than twenty years, was once again engulfed in flames of war!

"The war finally came..."

Listening to the Hokage's mobilization speech coming from the distant radio loudspeaker, Liuyun couldn't help but sigh.

"But even if a war breaks out, it's no big deal. A mere Rain Ninja can't invade the Land of Fire, let alone Konoha. I still have at least one year of free time..."

Liuyun whispered, stomped his legs on the ground, and shot out like a cannonball.

With a flash of blue knife light, a waist-thick tree was instantly cut in half by him.

The chakra blade blessed by lightning is extremely sharp, and combined with the blessing of instant body speed, it can really achieve the effect of cutting iron like mud!

Within the Thousand Hands Clan.

Uzumaki Mito confined Nawaki to his home and prevented him from following Konoha's ninja army to the battlefield in the Land of Rain.

This action instantly caught the attention of the three ninjas, and they all seemed to be a little confused about Grandma Mito's decision.

Orochimaru thinks that the battlefield is a good place to train people. He intends to take Rope Tree to the Rain Country to make achievements, which is unanimously supported by Tsunade and Jiraiya.

However, Uzumaki Mito, who never interfered with his grandson's freedom on weekdays, suddenly ordered his grandson not to go abroad, and his attitude was very tough, as if there was no room for negotiation.

Tsunade was very confused, so she went to argue with her grandmother, but ended up getting a scolding in return.

Of course, she was not a woman with a good temper. Once she got angry, the grandmother and grandson started arguing loudly at home.

Shengshu was no pushover either. He totally couldn't accept or understand his grandmother's decision. He never had a moment of peace at home and kept clamoring to join the war.

He said that he wanted to inherit the will of his grandfather and second grandfather, and that he would become the fourth Hokage of Konoha Village in the future. As the grandson of two Hokages, he could not be afraid of fighting or avoid fighting. He accused his grandmother of not understanding him...

Uzumaki Mito was very conflicted. On the one hand, she believed in Liuyun's reminder, and on the other hand, she received the assurance from the Sannin, and she felt that with the Sannin's abilities, they should be able to take good care of their grandson...

She was the one who raised the child since he was young. How could she not know and understand Nawaki's dream of becoming Hokage?

But she was really afraid that Liuyun's words would come true, and the only legitimate descendant of the old Senju would die on the battlefield...

On the day before the ninja troops set off, Uzumaki Mito was under a lot of pressure. The three ninjas were all persuading her and promising her that they would take good care of Nawaki.

The opportunity for battle cannot be delayed. The ninja troops have a set time for departure. The changes on Naoki's side were unexpected. The ninja army will not stop because of him.

Uzumaki Mito, the wife of the first Hokage and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, rarely used her power and explicitly prohibited Nawaki from going to the Rain Country to participate in the war. Even the Third Hokage did not dare to say a word against this matter.

The fact that there was one less Genin participating in the war had no impact on Konoha. Although Sarutobi Hiruzen did not understand Uzumaki Mito's actions, he obeyed her wishes.

"Grandma, what are you thinking? Are you going to destroy my dream with your own hands?"

There were tears in Sheng Shu's eyes and his voice sounded a little hysterical.

The reason had been explained and the Sannin had also tried to persuade him, but his grandmother just wouldn't let him go to the battlefield in the Rain Country, which made him anxious, yelling, and even saying hurtful words.

"I know, you just want me to be a coward, you just want to destroy me, I hate you..."

Uzumaki Mito was so angry that she almost cried, but looking at her grandson who was dying and going crazy, she couldn't harden her heart and chose to let go...

She knew that if she didn't let go, Sheng Shu would definitely hate her for the rest of his life, and would most likely collapse because of it.

She wanted to take a gamble, betting that the man's advice was just a kid's joke... and betting that her grandson would be fine!

In the end, Nawaki followed Orochimaru.

He left resolutely, without even looking back to take another look at his grandmother.

"With Tsunade and the others watching over me, my grandson will be fine."

Looking at her grandson's determined back as he left, Uzumaki Mito began to comfort herself constantly, but her tears couldn't stop falling and her heart was aching slightly.

"Grandma Mito, Nawaki will be fine." Kushina walked forward and comforted softly.

Seeing Grandma Mito crying, she also felt uncomfortable and wanted to cry.

Sheng Shu seemed extremely excited when he stepped out of the village, and even quickened his pace.

In less than half a day, he followed the large ninja army into the territory of the Rain Country.

He couldn't wait to kill the enemy and make merit. Being young and frivolous, he behaved very bravely and started the combat mission with Orochimaru that night.

Orochimaru had personally dealt with many powerful enemy ninjas, and thought that Rope Tree would not encounter any enemies, so he relaxed his vigilance a little...

But not long after, accompanied by a loud explosion, his most beloved disciple...ended his short life!

Orochimaru could stop the powerful enemies who were trying to kill his disciples, but he could not defend against the explosive talisman traps buried under the ground.

Sheng Shu died in the place where he was supposed to die, and even the time of his death was exactly the same as in the original work.

When Orochimaru saw the corpse, his fear of death was infinitely magnified. He didn't understand why a living person who was still alive just now turned into a burnt and smelly corpse in the blink of an eye...

Living life...why is it so fragile?

"Rope Tree... Why is it like this..."

Orochimaru stroked the unrecognizable corpse and murmured to himself, his eyes full of pain and regret.

"Mr. Mito is right. I shouldn't have taken Nawaki away. If it weren't for my insistence, Nawaki might not have died..."

He had just promised in the morning that he would take good care of Shengshu, but in less than a day... Shengshu died right under his nose.

At this moment, the fearless Orochimaru was even afraid to face the old man, and was afraid to face Tsunade...

He picked up the crystal pendant on the ground tremblingly, and two lines of tears fell from his snake eyes.
