Chapter 296 Preparation before the war (1)

The large-scale mobilization of Yuyin's troops could not be concealed from other villages, but they were really powerless in the face of Yuyin's actions.

Tsunade got angry as soon as she returned to the village. She never expected that such a thing would happen in the village.

Before Naruto had the chance to ask Shikamaru and the others why they left, the news of Jiraiya's death arrived.

The successive attacks plunged the entire Konoha into chaos for a time.

The situation of Kumogakure is not much better. It is a shame for the Fourth Raikage to be killed in it, and there are endless arguments in the village about who will succeed the Fifth Raikage. Seeing that the movement of Raingakure is in the Land of Earth, there is even less need to pay attention to it.

As for Sand Village and Kirigakure, it is impossible for them to provide much help as they can protect themselves.

"Damn it, they are all a bunch of bastards who only care about themselves!"

Ōnoki tore the letter in his hand into pieces. These were replies from other villages, all of which were powerless to respond to Ōnoki's request for help.

Ohnoki looked at his son Huangtu and said with a grim expression.

“What’s the situation at the border now?”

"Yuyin has mobilized hundreds of combat vehicles. Some of the models are different from before. It looks like they are really going to launch an attack."

Huang Tu was also under great pressure and he had no confidence at all to resist the opponent's attack.

"Konoha and Kumogakure are in chaos, so we can't rely on them. Sunagakure said they can only harass us at the border, and Kirigakure can't help at all. We can only rely on ourselves in this war!"

Ōnoki had experienced three Ninja World Wars, but this one was the most stressful for him. Not to mention having to face a man like Uchiha Madara, there was also the iron torrent of Amegakure.

Even he didn't have full confidence that he could win.

"Something's wrong, Tsuchikage-sama!"

A Iwagakure ninja hurriedly ran to the Tsuchikage's office with an unknown piece of paper in his hand.

"Look at you! The war hasn't even started yet!"

Ohnoki was already angry, and he scolded the ninja for his misbehavior.

However, this ninja didn't care about Oonoki's scolding at all and pointed at a piece of paper in his hand.

"Tsuchikage-sama, Deidara has some giant falcons spreading these flyers all over the Land of Earth."

Oonoki's gaze then shifted to the other person's hand, and the beautifully printed content on it was some kind of promotional leaflet.

Just do these little tricks.

Oonoki took the flyer nonchalantly and read the contents.

The more I looked at his expression, the uglier it became.

The leaflet actually said that Amegakure fought this war to liberate all the poor people. As long as they surrendered, ordinary people would get farmland and ninjas would get jobs.

There would be no need to pay high taxes, and ninjas would no longer need to perform dangerous missions. Life would become better and better.

To add to the impact, the income of ordinary people and ninjas in Yugakure was also announced, as well as some photos.

The rule of Yuyin was portrayed as a paradise, and the power of bewitching was very strong.

"What nonsense! Those bastards from Amegakure! And Deidara actually helped them do this!"

Ohnogi's body began to tremble. The morale had dropped significantly before the war even started.

"Is there a lot of this stuff spread out? Tell someone to quickly recycle all of this stuff!"

Huangtu also saw the contents of the flyer. Even he was tempted by the life described there, let alone those ordinary people and low-level ninjas.

"There are too many of them scattered around, not only in the village, but also in small towns and big cities in the Land of Earth. Our people are all at the border, and there is no way we can recover all of this stuff."

The ninja also knew that the situation was not good, and he even spoke with a hint of tears in his voice.

While Ohnoki was still thinking about how to deal with this matter, a ninja came to his office again.

When Ohnoki saw that this ninja was from the intelligence department, he wondered what was going on.

"Lord Tsuchikage..."

When the ninja saw the presence of other people, he trotted over to Ōnoki and whispered something in his ear.

"you sure?"

Oonoki's originally ugly expression turned into one of doubt and uncertainty, and he was somewhat hesitant to confirm what the other party said.

The ninja from the Intelligence Department stood aside respectfully, "Yes, Lord Tsuchikage, they are waiting over there."

"Okay, I'll be there right away! Huangtu, wait for me here for a while."

Ōnoki didn't say what he was going to do and quickly followed the ninja out of the office.

This caused Huang Tu and the other ninja to look at each other in surprise.

Ohnoki turned left and right in the Tsuchikage Building and finally came to a room. As soon as he entered the room, he could hear the crackling sound of electricity.

The entire room was huge. Dozens of sensory ninjas were wearing some unknown instrument on their heads. The instrument was connected to a huge battery, and the battery was connected to a screen that was about the size of an ordinary TV.

Looking at these ninjas sweating profusely, it must be very difficult for them to maintain this state.

Ōnoki looked at the person on the screen with a serious expression. The other person was about the same age as Ōnoki. He wore a fan-shaped decoration on his head with rock patterns painted on it. This person was the daimyo of the Land of Earth.

"Ohnoki! We must win this war. How dare the other side do this? How dare those insignificant people replace us! I will give you as much military funds as you want! I have already contacted the daimyo of other countries and asked them to do their best to destroy the Rain Country!"

As soon as the Daimyo of the Land of Earth saw Ohnoki, he began to speak excitedly, still holding the identical leaflet in his hand.

Ohnoki was also an old and experienced man. He immediately understood why the other party behaved so inappropriately. These guys from Yugakure not only wanted to rule the world but also wanted to bring down the daimyo.

No matter how brutal the previous wars were, they had nothing to do with these noble lords. But this time it directly affects them, and they will definitely be angry.

"Destroy the Rain Country? You should inform the Daimyo of the Rain Country about this matter."

Ohnoki himself cannot make such a decision directly. Even though Ye Lan declared war at the Five Kage Conference, in fact, such a declaration is not effective at all. The real declaration of war should be announced by the daimyo, and then the villages of both sides will start fighting.

However, Ye Lan’s strength made them unable to ignore the other party’s words, and they acquiesced to the fact that the Rain Country had launched a war.

It would have been fine if Ōnoki hadn't said anything, but as soon as he did, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth became angry again.

"There is no Daimyo in the Rain Country anymore. I don't know what he was thinking but he abdicated and announced that there will be no Daimyo in the Rain Country anymore and that the Hidden Rain Village will lead it directly. What the hell are they doing! They are committing treason and breaking the ancestral rules. They should be struck by lightning!"

Ōnoki was shocked. He didn't expect Amegakure to be so ruthless. Even though the Daimyo of the Rain Country stepped down on his own, he was just an ordinary person and could be controlled by any illusion. This resignation was definitely controlled by the people of Amegakure themselves.

"I don't care anyway, we can only win this battle, not lose! Ohnoki, I'm putting all my pressure on you!"

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth looked at Ōnoki very seriously. He would never tolerate anyone infringing on the interests of their nobles. The actions of Yugakure were to cut off their roots.

"Then please convince the Fire Country Daimyo as soon as possible. To be honest with you, Iwagakure may not be able to withstand the opponent's attack."

At this point, Ohnoki had to tell the truth. Now was not the time to pretend to be strong.

"How could that be? Isn't the other party just a ninja village of a small country? Wouldn't it be easy for us, the Land of Earth, to destroy them?"

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth knew nothing about, and cared little about, what was happening in the outside world. If the leaflets had not landed in his capital, he would have had no idea that the war had begun.

"Daimyo, Yugakure is not scary, but they have too many masters. One of them has reached, no, I should say has surpassed Uchiha Madara!"

Although they had left the scene of the confrontation between Ye Lan and Hashirama, they were still very frightened when they watched from afar.

The power of the God of Ninja World reappeared in the Ninja World, and his exaggerated Wood Release was worthy of the title, but Ye Lan defeated the opponent in a head-on confrontation, which meant that he had surpassed his ancestor.

This is something that even Madara himself has never done, and Ōnoki has no way to deal with such a person.

"Uchiha Madara... it's a bad memory. I understand. I will contact the Daimyo of other countries and ask them to put pressure on the village."

The Daimyo of the Land of Earth is about the same age as Ohnoki. He has also heard the legend of Uchiha Madara, which makes him take this matter more seriously.
