Chapter 497 Before the war

Including Metkai, who was extremely worried before.

After Shoji himself opened the Nine Magatama Samsara Eye, his threat level has been greatly reduced. With the Nine Magatama Samsara Eye, mastering the sage mode, and the blessing of dragon vein power, the current Shoji is still not as good as

They became the reincarnation eye spots under the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, but the gap between them is certainly not very big.

But Metkai definitely doesn't have the strength to fight in the decisive battle.

This is not Konoha's 63rd year.

But Konoha 54 years!

There is a gap of nine years. At this moment, Metkai, who is just 21 or 2 years old, is already very good at mastering the Eight-door Dunjia Formation. It is absolutely impossible for him to be as mellow and comfortable as in the original work, and to burst out with the strongest power.

In the level of power!

And this doesn't just refer to the power of Eight Gate Dunjia.

It also means that there must be a clear gap between Metkai's own basic strength and his own during the decisive battle in the original work!

Perhaps it is more straightforward to put it this way. At this point in time, the power of Yekai's attack released at the cost of his life under the Eight Gates of Metkai is likely to be at most more powerful than that of Senju Hashirama at his peak.

Eternal Eyespot's full-force attack is just one step stronger.

In other words, the general who explodes with all his strength can surely block Metkai's full blow after opening the eighth door!

Since the risks have been greatly weakened and are almost within the controllable range, Shoji must of course pursue maximization of profits. Just like in the previous battle with Yunyin Village, Shoji planned to severely damage the entire Yunxi Village through a war.

Hidden Village!

It's the same this time.

Since the Third Hokage brought the army of Konoha Hidden Village to our door, Shoji has no reason not to eat him!

This Konoha ninja army of nearly ten thousand.

People are so proactive.

The general would naturally accept it with a smile.

Deidara and Kurotsuchi naturally don't understand the inner thoughts of their eldest general, but they can also hear that Shoji has his own plans and arrangements, and he can even hear the strong sense of confidence in Shoji's words.

.

The two of them wouldn't say much.

"oh!"

"Well, since General Si Sang said so!"

After all, in terms of trust level, few people trust the general more than the three little ones in the first class. This is an existence that they highly recognize and respect!

It's also good for ferrets.

Deidara, black soil.

The goal of the three little ones as they grow up is always Shoji! It can be said that the next generation of Tsuchikage struggle has already begun to take shape in the three little ones.

In the future, Neji, Kabuto Yakushi, Koso and even Erzhu will definitely join the competition!

And this is exactly the prospect that General is most willing to see.

Looking at the three little ones in front of him, a faint smile appeared on Jiang Si's face.

The large armies gathered on the front line, while confronting each other, also made the atmosphere in this area extremely forbidding and cold. Almost at the moment when the armies of the two major ninja villages were approaching, there were scattered residents in the nearby area.

The people, who were not many in the first place, also fled away in a panic.

They don't want to get involved in the battle between the ninja masters.

Not to mention the super-standard battles, even the aftermath of a genin battle can easily take away their lives.

for these civilians.

General, Jiraiya will 100% restrain the ninja army under his command not to act randomly. In the past wars, ninjas from various countries have killed civilians intentionally or unintentionally during wars!

And here, you have to admit that Konoha's side is the one that does relatively well. Many times, the most Konoha ninjas do is drive away civilians. During battles, they will try their best to avoid areas where civilians are.

Massacres of civilians rarely occur, but this is not the case in the other four major countries.

In particular, the number of civilians from other countries killed by the Kiri Ninja and Kumo Ninja in the past is simply too numerous to mention. It is even said that once the battle gets fierce, the civilians of their own country will suffer the same consequences. Even some extreme ninjas, only

He believes that the common people in the village are his family, which is a very common thing in the entire ninja world.

Of course, the Iwa ninjas of the past were not as bloody and cruel as the Kumo ninjas and Kiri ninjas.

But it is not as good as Konoha, and all this began to change when Shoji entered the high-level position of Iwagakure Village. Shoji's goal has always been to look at the entire ninja world. Many people feel that in such a world where ninjas are respected

inside.

Civilians are just ants that you don't need to care about at all.

It is true that from a purely power level, no matter how large the number of civilians is, it will not affect the overall situation. But again, what General Si wants to establish is a truly harmonious and peaceful Datong society, a society that eliminates all isolation, hatred, and class.

A society of exploitation and disparity!

Then we must try our best to let people all over the world feel the kindness of Iwagakure Village!

It is not required that they will definitely welcome their arrival and rule at first, but they must definitely not reject or be hostile!

If it really makes people angry.

That would not be a harmonious society, but a reign of terror!

Therefore, under the leadership of Shoji, Iwagakure Village has also undergone great changes in this aspect. Ohnoki also fully agrees with Shoji's reform and guidance in this aspect. Since the goal is to unify the entire ninja world,

Then you must have the heart and understanding to treat everyone in the ninja world as one's own people!

If we can, we will provide a certain degree of assistance to these fleeing civilians to the minimum extent possible.

Shoji wants the entire ninja world to recognize Iwagakure Village again!

This is also an invisible signal!

Although Jiraiya didn't think as much as Shoji, his nature was the kind of person who would never affect innocent people.

What's more, before the war comes, there is still a gap of two or three days, so that these people can stay away from this dangerous area as early as possible.

It is also what Jiraiya wishes.

And due to the tacit preparations of both parties, after all these civilians left, two days passed quickly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen delayed his departure from Konoha Hidden Village.

He also led a total of four thousand Konoha troops to the front line and merged with the army led by Jiraiya.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had just arrived at the front line, felt his heart sink when he heard that the general had appeared in the camp of the Iwa ninja army opposite.

Because in the previous prediction.

It is not that Sarutobi Hiruzen has not considered this possibility, but he is more inclined to think that the general will personally command the army to attack Sunagakure Village, trying to use his super strength to defeat Sunagakure Village in the shortest possible time.

Resistance forces, and then return to defend the country earlier.

Now it seems that they chose to defend themselves against the attack of Konoha Hidden Village.

"So, I boldly suggest that Lord Jiraiya wait for the arrival of your reinforcements, Lord Third, and then launch an attack together after they gather together. Otherwise, with the first batch of armies, there is a high possibility that something will happen that we cannot control, and we don't want to see it.

The ending!”

In the army camp on the front line of Konoha Hidden Village.

Set up in the main camp tent in the center of the camp.

Nara Shikaku looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen sitting on the throne and said in a deep voice.

"Your judgment is correct, Shikaku. If Uchiha Shoji is really opposite us, rather than on the front line of Sunagakure Village, this approach is the safest!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen also waved his hand gently and said.

One person can defeat thousands of troops!

Today's Uchiha Shoji seems to have such deterrence and destructive power in Sarutobi Hiruzen!

Facing such a powerful enemy, no amount of caution can be exaggerated.

"How is the situation in Sunagakure Village? Can it still withstand it? I heard that the two retired elders - Chiyo and Ebizo have come out to take care of things, can they barely withstand it?"

After all, it is one of the five great ninja villages.

There should still be a certain level of foundation, right?

Chiyo and Ebizo are also strong men of the same era as Sarutobi Hiruzen. The two siblings were famous in the ninja world for their puppet power. In the eyes of the Third Hokage, no matter how bad the situation in Sunagakure Village is, they must insist on being the best.

Yue should still be able to do it, right!?

"The situation is not very optimistic, Third Generation. The latest intelligence has shown the decline of Sunagakure Village. The second line of defense cannot stop the advancement of Iwagakure Village at all. According to the news from the ANBU, this time

During the war, Iwa Ninja seemed to have used many new weapons, not only chakra armor, the strategic weapons of the Kingdom of Sky, but also other weird, but terrifyingly powerful bombing-type weapons, and

There are some weapons here that seem to be operated by ordinary people, and the destructive power they display is also very impressive. No sand ninja defense stronghold can withstand it. If judged according to the previous situation, at this moment, the rock ninja army

They should have already advanced to the outskirts of Sunagakure Village!"
