Chapter 152 Reactions from all parties (2nd update, please subscribe!)

Konoha Village, the Xiang clan, the great elder Xiang Zongming's mansion, the backyard living room.

Xiang Zongming dismissed his attendants and had a secret talk with Qianhe.

"I didn't expect you to come to my old home. I thought you were looking for Ayane?"

Xiang Zongming also drank tea leisurely.

For an old man who has seen a lot of ups and downs, nothing can easily move him. Even if Qianhe came to him with a serious face, he could still joke calmly.

Knowing that Muneaki Kouji didn't like beating around the bush, Qianhe didn't hold back and went straight to the point:

"Muneaki, what do you think about the fact that Kumogakure sent an envoy to form an alliance with Konoha?"

Muneaki Kouji smiled faintly when he heard this: "This is a good thing. Haven't you seen that the villagers in Konoha have hung straw ropes at their doors, inserted oranges and placed kadomatsu trees recently, preparing to welcome the New Year and enter the new year?

Hasn't there been such a happy atmosphere in Konoha for a long time?"

Qianhe frowned slightly and said: "It seems that Muneaki doesn't want to tell me the truth. In this case, let me take my leave."

As he said this, Qianhe stood up, bowed to Muneaki Kouji, and prepared to turn around and leave.

"Wait!"

Xiang Zongming's expression became serious, and he said, "It seems that you know some important information that I don't know. Come back and sit down."

Qianhe heard this and knelt down on the cushion again.

Xiang Zongming changed his previous relaxed look and his face darkened: "I don't believe that Kumogakure will easily negotiate peace with Konoha. If they are really sincere, they will not wait for Konoha to show enough sincerity and take years to decide to form an alliance with Konoha.

There must be a conspiracy here! And Kumogakure has no intention. They need to pretend to form an alliance to make Konoha ninjas careless.

The top leaders have thought of this.

But it cannot prove that Kumogakure cheated Konoha must cooperate with Kumogakure to play the game.

After all, what if Kumogakure is really sincere in forming an alliance? After all, even the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning has issued a statement.

If you insist that there is a problem, it also violates the wishes of the majority of the people of the Land of Lightning, and the civilian ninjas of Konoha will not agree. "

Looking at Xiang Zongming's full understanding of the situation, Qianhe found that he had not read these, or understood the original situation. He always judged the top leaders of Konoha from a God's perspective.

Even if they have one or two idiots, they can't all be idiots.

Think about what Qianhe's reviewers who have conducted in-depth interpretations of the Kage said, the generation may not be a good Kage, but he must be a good politician.

Even if this is just a figment of my imagination, it is obviously not completely derogatory.

He could sense that Yunyin was cheating, and the higher-ups naturally knew about it, and even thought of a deeper level.

Qianhe thought of this and said in a deep voice: "According to the information from Jiraiya, Kumogakure has sent two perfect Chuuriki to the border of Frost Country, and there are thousands of troops accompanying them.

According to our speculation, their real purpose is to ensure that when the Kumogakure frontal troops attack Konoha, the flanks will not be attacked by the Iwagakure Village.

It also means that the probability of Kumogakure and Konoha going to war is very high.

I have just brought this information to the head of the family, and he has already held a high-level meeting."

"Such important news, the head of the family must have asked you not to spread it, you told me so directly, is it really okay?" Xiang Zongming seemed very indifferent to the war, and his focus was not on the war.

Qianhe smiled faintly and said, "The elder did say that it cannot be passed on, but Caiyin and I are friends, and you are a respectable elder, so I think this is at most an inside story.

And given your status, you only know these things in the past two days. I just told you in advance so that you can be prepared."

Facing Qianhe's "frankness", Xiang Zongming nodded,

"Well, it makes sense, I feel your sincerity.

Ahem... It's easy to get sleepy when you get older, and I am no exception.

It's fun to chat with you, an interesting junior, but it's not good for a long time.

You should go back early, I need to rest."

Facing Xiang Zongming's meaningful eyes, Qianhe understood, and then stood up and bowed, "Then I'll take my leave first, take care of yourself."

With that, Qianhe turned and left.

Xiang Zongming looked at Qianhe's back and smiled faintly: "Interesting."

......

Iwagakure Village, high-level meeting.

On the main seat, sat a short old man with white hair and beard. This is Ohnoki, the first generation of Tsuchikage of the Land of Earth and Iwagakure Village.

"Lord Tsuchikage, this time the Cloud Village sent troops to the border of the Frost Country, which is clearly a provocation to our Iwagakure."

"Yes, they even sent out two of the village's jirushi. We should find a way to deal with it immediately. We can't lose the initiative, otherwise we will be beaten passively!"

"For this kind of behavior, we should quickly send troops to guard against the Cloud Village's sneak attack, otherwise..."

Faced with the excited crowd, Ohnoki waved his hand, and the scene instantly became quiet.

"Huangtu, what do you think?"

At this time, Ohnoki asked his son Huangtu.

Huangtu nodded, then stood up and said, "I think the Cloud Hidden Head is Konoha."

"Konoha?"

"Didn't the Land of Lightning just announce that it would form an alliance with the Land of Lightning? Could it be..."

"Is this a cover? It's Kumogakure trying to paralyze Konoha."

"As for the troops on the western front of Kumogakure, they are not trying to attack the village, but they have made it clear that they do not want us to take the opportunity to move eastward while they are fighting."

The audience reacted quickly and roughly guessed the whole thing.

"Then what should we do? Wait and wait for the opportunity to take action?"

"Or do we also have to get involved?"

At this time, everyone turned their attention to Onoki.

Onoki said calmly: "Konoha has experienced a great loss in strength during the Tail Rebellion, but it is still strong.

In recent years, Yunyin has been developing rapidly and needs to be suppressed.

But we can't help Konoha.

It's best to let them both lose, but the loss to Konoha will be slightly greater.

Loess, you will lead the team and assemble 800 troops to station on the western front of the border of the Kingdom of Frost. If we find an opportunity, we will also visit the Kingdom of 뀙.

But be careful, once Konoha 놇 and Kumogakure 놅 are at a disadvantage in the battle, 늀 will retreat immediately.

Also, send a piece of information to the Fourth Kazekage of Sand Ninja Village, saying that I have good news for him and asking him to come with me..."

****

At this time, the senior officials of Sand Ninja Village were also summoned because of Kumogakure's movements.

Two advisors, Chiyo and Ebizo, were also present.

They are arguing with the Fourth Kazekage Rasa.

"Why not take advantage of this good opportunity to attack Konoha? Is this the end of the previous grudge?" The most excited person on the scene was undoubtedly Chiyo's mother-in-law.

Her son and daughter-in-law all died in the war at the hands of Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumoge, and Sun Xie eventually defected due to lack of parental affection and care.

But it can be said that it was Hatake Sakumo, and it was Konoha that made her a loner.

Whether it was between villages or personal grudges, she and Konoha had an irreconcilable hatred.

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa said helplessly: "The village's current strength cannot compete with Konoha head-on. The losses in the war were so great that the village will not be able to recover in less than ten years."

Chiyo and all the senior officials were silent.

Because of the defeat in the War of 꺘, the daimyo of the Country of Wind reduced the funds allocated to Sand Ninja Village, and instead entrusted a large number of tasks to the Country of Konoha, and other large country villages.

If Sand Ninja Village is forced to embark on the path of elite development, the number of ninjas will be greatly reduced, especially the new generation of ninjas, whose number will be reduced by more than a quarter.

The older generation also suffered heavy casualties in the war, and finally signed a peace treaty with Konoha. Now they are actively attacking Konoha. The success rate of alien operations is too low.

As the least powerful of the five great ninja villages, Sand Ninja Village is now more than capable of defending its territory but not aggressive enough, and is completely unable to provoke a war.

At this time, Chiyo's younger brother Ebizo comforted him: "Sister, White Fang has been dead for many years."

Seeing Granny Qiandai looking downcast, Luo Sha suddenly said:

"Although we cannot attack Konoha, as an ally, we can still send troops to patrol the border when Konoha and Kumogakure are at war. This can be regarded as fulfilling our obligations as an ally.

In addition, the border defense work needs to be tested. There should be no problem in sending more ninjas.

Of course, we still need to inform Konoha in advance so that Konoha can be prepared. "

When Chiyo heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The senior management of the field were not stupid, and they quickly understood what Luo Sha meant.
