The Beginning of the Three Battles!
"Chiyoda-sama, are we really going to start a war with Kiba? Mu Ye is so strong, I'm afraid…"
This was Windshade's office in Shinobu Village. However, the person in charge of the meeting was not Windshade, but Chiyo.
At this time, the third generation of Windshade had been missing for a long time in Sanin Village. As for the fourth generation of Windshade, I Love Luo's father was only 20 years old at this time, so he was not qualified to take on the role of Windshade. However, his name had already spread. Chiyo's plan was to use the death of the third generation Windshade to start a war with Kiba and let his own people take over. Of course, this plan was impossible to let the other elders know.
All the ninjas in Sanin Village knew that the fourth generation of Windshade (let's just call him that, because they didn't give him a name) and Chiyo had huge political differences. When the third generation was still in power, the fourth generation, as the leader of the Shadow Guards, had already tried his best to strengthen Wind Shadow's power and weaken the Elder Council. If the fourth generation was in power, then the status of the Elder Committee could be imagined. The Elder Committee was now desperately trying to stop the election of the fourth generation Wind Shadow. However, this was only a plan for reinforcements. It was not a solution to the root of the problem.
However, what could he do? At this time, Sharen Village could be said to be lacking in talent. There was a serious shortage of high-end combat strength, especially the younger generation. Compared to Mu Ye, they were far inferior. Moreover, once the war started, it was necessary to choose a shadow before the war. Otherwise, the war would not be able to continue. And once he chose a shadow, the fourth generation would definitely take the lead. This was an unsolvable knot!
What everyone did not know was that the fourth generation Windshade had always been Chiyo's subordinate. Everything he had done before was just a cover-up.
What Chiyo needed to do was to push for war. Once the war started, her subordinates would be the shadows and she would be the Great Elder. Then, the Sunin family would have the final say.
Of course, the reason for starting a war could not be a simple political conspiracy. The main reason was that the Wind Country's daimyo was gradually reducing military spending and supplies. It was becoming more and more difficult for Hidden Sand Village to maintain the huge ninja group. It had no choice but to snatch resources from other countries and divert the conflict. The closest country to it, the Country of Fire, became its first choice.
Letting his own people become shadows was also a political goal. At this time, Chiyo was far from being like the recluse she was later on. Right now, her desire for power was still very strong. In other words, she wanted Hidden Sand Village to develop according to her own ideas, similar to Kanye's later development.
However, judging from the results, the fourth generation should have become Windshadow. Unfortunately, he had devoted his entire life to weakening the influence of the Elder Committee, and he had indeed succeeded. It could be said that Chiyo had made a very stupid decision at this time.
Of course, Chiyo was unaware of what happened after that. She was currently pushing for war to ease the pressure on the village.
"Muye is no longer the mighty Muye of World War II. Hmph, even if it is, we still have to fight. We have to give the villagers an explanation for Ying's death.”Chiyo said coldly.
In fact, the corpse of the third-generation successor had not been found in Hidden Sand Village, nor had it been confirmed that the third-generation successor was dead. The third generation, who was known as the strongest Windshade, was very unlikely to be assassinated by ninjas from other countries. It could be said that Chiyo was making up a huge lie, and at the same time, it was an excuse to start a war. It was just that everyone knew that this was a lie, but no one would expose it.
" But..." Another elder wanted to say something but was interrupted by Chiyo.
"There's no need to say anything else. Inform all the Jounins (Special Jounin, Normal Jounin, and Elite Jounin) to come to Windshade's office tomorrow and vote for a new Windshade.”
Chiyo made the final decision.
At this moment, the disadvantage of not having a shadow was revealed. In the past, even though Chiyo's words had a huge impact on the elders, the elders who opposed her still dared to express their different opinions. But now, none of the elders dared to voice their objections.
If it was possible, he really hoped that there would never be a shadow. However, this was obviously impossible. Most ninjas were used to obeying Shadow and not the elders.
Thus, the next day's Wind Shadow election was held as scheduled. Then, the 4th generation Windshade was selected as the 4th generation Windshade by an absolute advantage (it felt so strange). After that, he gave the order for war.
Starting a war was the consensus of the four generations of Windshade and Chiyo. Because only then would Hidden Sand Village not collapse. Otherwise, the huge material gap would be enough to make Shayin suffer eternal damnation.
It was good to win, but on the contrary, even if they lost, it was acceptable. This was the fourth generation's thinking.
The war was launched on the first day after the new year.
"Captain, you go first. We'll hold them back. Damn Sharen, he actually dared to start a war. He had to send this news back to the village.”a Muye ninja said.
This was a small team of Mu Ye, and there were about five people left. However, most of them were injured and were currently fleeing in the direction of Woodleaf Village.
They were originally a squadron of 10 people. It was a well-known guard team of the Muye Alliance. However, a day ago, Sharen had ambushed the country they were protecting. During the war, they had escaped in the chaos and wanted to escape back to Muye to warn Muye. As for the daimyo of that small country, the ninjas of Koba were not worried. No ninja from Ninja Village would dare to harm a noble daimyo. This would make him the public enemy of the entire Ninja World, unless he planned to defect. The role of the Guardian Shinobu was also to defend against possible assassinations. It should be known that no country would lack ministers who wanted to launch a coup at any time.
"Be careful." The captain shouted and quickly stopped.
"Shua Shua Shua"
A large group of sand ninjas appeared in the surroundings. There were about three teams.
Muye's captain looked at Sharen and his eyes dimmed. The hope of escaping was minuscule. This was a standard elite combat team during wartime. There was one Jounin and three elite Chuonins.
Most of Mu Ye's team members were ordinary Jounin. Only the captain was a special Jounin. Even if there was only one of them, their chances of escaping were slim, let alone three combat squads.
However, there was no such thing as surrender between ninjas. Even if they were facing the Shadow of the Village, they still had to have the courage to fight. Mu Ye's escape team looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
Unfortunately, the difference in strength between them was too great. In less than fifteen minutes, the entire army was wiped out.
The outcome of a battle between ninjas was determined by their own strength, not their will to fight.
A day later, in Naruto's office.
"Lord Naruto, it's confirmed. The day before yesterday, Hidden Sand Village had started to invade our allies around it. Basically, it could be confirmed that Hidden Sand Village had already declared war without any warning!”
"I see." The third-generation successor responded," Gather all the Jounin members immediately!”
"Yes, Lord Naruto!"
The Dark Group replied loudly and left with a Blink Spell. After a while, an eagle flew high above the leaves, occasionally making eagle cries.
The war had begun.
