Chapter 64: Past Events of Grass Ninja
Guan Liyuan's directness surprised Zhutorixiu, but the two quickly exchanged information...
The first thing Guan Liyuan cares about most is why Zhutorixiu is willing to cooperate directly with him behind the back of the other two clan elders?
Simply for internal struggle?
It's possible...but Guan Liyuan feels something is wrong!
In this regard, Zhutorixiu had no choice but to reveal the truth after realizing that he would not be able to gain Guan Liyuan's trust if he did not explain this.
It turns out that when the Kaguya and Taketori clans were still one, there was a mural of their ancestors depicting a human with horns on his head, and the Kaguya clan prospered under his leadership...
The specific story is not clear, because it is in the form of a symbolic mural, so we can only tell a rough outline!
Only then did Guan Liyuan understand why he and the three clan elders had such expressions when they met for the first time...
As for who is the person with horns in the painting?
Guan Liyuan doesn't know, but he can guess that he may be the Immortal of Six Paths, and those who follow him are not only the Kaguya clan, but also the ancestors of the Kaguya clan, a certain generation of descendants of the Immortal of Six Paths, who have also opened the immortal body...
Like all legends, the ancestral secret text of the Kaguya clan also has a second half, which is probably a prediction that such a person will appear again in the Kaguya clan and lead the Kaguya clan to glory...
Most of the prophecies are pretentious. For example, this kind of prophecy can be regarded as not coming true at all, or it can be explained that Naruto, as the "son of the prophecy", finally has horns on his head in the Six Paths mode.
But how to explain that Guan Liyuan doesn't care, what do the really useful people of the Taketori clan think?
Now it seems that Zhutorixiu is half-convinced about this matter. Although he does not have high expectations for Guan Liyuan just because of a false legend, he is willing to give it a try.
The other two conservative clan elders have long been addicted to power. In Xiu's words, they only have power struggles in their hearts and no glory for the clan!
This can also be clearly seen in the composition of the three clan elders. Xiu is definitely the young sect among the three. Not only is he the youngest, but he is also the most radical in his thinking...
"Did you initiate the war with Caoyin Village?" Guan Liyuan looked at Xiu in surprise.
"Of course, they are old... They think that the country of Taki is enough to support the Taketori clan. They only think about how to have greater authority among the Taketori clan, but they don't think about how to make the Taketori clan stronger!" Xiu said There is some excitement here.
"So you want to annex Caoyin Village?" Guan Liyuan felt that he was too confident.
"Of course not!" Xiu's tone became more excited.
But I still remembered that I came in secret, and still lowered my voice...
"I have proposed to go to war with Cao Yin Village many times. As long as we can suppress the northern fortress of Cao Yin Village, we can force them to open the mission channels within the Country of Cao to us. However, after repeated suggestions, I finally made them agree. Okay, let me measure it myself...
Three months ago, I used my tribe to start a war with the grass ninja in the north of the country of grass. Those trash are just as I imagined. They look very strong, but they are just boneless guys. After three months of fighting, in the northern part of the Country of Grass, the Grass Ninjas can only return to defend the northern fortress, hoping to rely on the fortress to fight against the enemy. Let's fight head-on! "
"That means you should be preparing for armistice negotiations now?" Guan Liyuan's tone was a little confused.
As far as he knew, the northern fortress should eventually be breached, and even Caoyin Village was temporarily breached!
That's why the traitorous ninja who fought against the autumn wind captured Koso, and Koso was later rescued by Orochimaru...
Could it be that this episode was different from the plot he knew, and that it was an hallucination caused by a disorder in receiving signals from the universe?
"Originally, this was my plan... But those two guys also smelled the benefits, mobilized their tribes, and started a full-scale war against Caoyin Village! And in order to balance my winning streak, I became more and more powerful in the tribe. In order to gain fame, they also want to directly attack the northern fortress, completely replace the Grass Hidden Village, and become the masters of the ninja world in the Country of Grass..."
Xiu obviously also understands that the task of forcing Kusagakure Village to give up some of the Country of Grass is simple, but if you want to destroy Kusugakure Village, the price you have to pay is definitely not small, and there is a high chance that Konoha will fight back!
But now Shoji and Takashi only see the grass ninja losing ground under Shu's offensive, and they are still thinking about how to gain greater prestige in the "Battle to Destroy the Grass Ninja"...
"Didn't the Hyuga clan remind them?" Guan Liyuan asked doubtfully.
[No matter how stupid those two old men are, they don’t think they can fight Konoha, right? 】
"Hyuuga clan? Is it the Hyuga clan of Konoha? They have a good relationship with the Kaguya clan before, but... they have no connection with us." Xiu said.
[The Hyuga clan and the Taketori clan are "unfamiliar"? Then when Pain was destroying Konoha, why did Hizashi bring Hanabi to visit the Taketori clan? Is this paragraph "fake"? 】
Guan Liyuan felt that he had vaguely thought of something, but he failed to grasp this inspiration and had to not think about it for now.
"How strong is Caoyin Village?" Guan Liyuan asked.
"Kusagakure Village is very strong, but now the Kusanagi of the Country of Grass are just garbage!"
Guan Liyuan didn't understand it at all.
"Liyuan... do you know about the 'Battle of Kannabi Bridge' 14 years ago?"
"It seems that in the Third Ninja War, Konoha defeated the invading Iwa Ninja..."
"That's right, but to be precise, it was the coalition of the Iwa Ninja and the Grass Ninja! At that time, although the strength of the Grass Ninja was not as good as that of the five major ninja villages, it was still at the forefront of the next-level ninja villages. At that time, the Iwa Ninja and the Grass Ninja The grass ninjas of the alliance attacked the northwest of the Country of Fire. Because of Konoha's multi-front war, Konoha was once passive. However, Konoha later destroyed the Kannabi Bridge in the Country of Grass, cutting off the Iwa Ninja and Kusanagi. The supply line of the Ninja Alliance was a turning point, and Konoha stabilized the situation in the northwest..."
In addition to what Xiu said, Guan Liyuan also knew another more important thing!
In fact, in the northwest battlefield of the third war, the battle of Kannabi Bridge is not remarkable individually. It is only famous because it was the turning point for Konoha to switch from defense to offense in the northwest battlefield...
However, Guan Liyuan knew that something happened at Kannabi Bridge that could really influence the fate of the ninja world, that is, Uchiha Obito "died" at Kannabi Bridge!
"After three battles, Konoha and Iwa Ninja had a truce... Konoha did not dare to push too hard on Iwa Ninja, who was also one of the five great ninja villages, but Kusagakure Village did not have the strength to protect itself. After the third war, Konoha also brought the victory of Northwest Wei, take the ninja world of the Land of Grass as your 'alliance'!"
After hearing what Xiu said, Guan Liyuan could probably guess what happened...
"Originally, most of the ninjas in Kusakure Village were moved overseas. Due to the checks and balances of other great ninja villages, they were not driven out by Konoha. Now, some of the Kusanagi in the Country of Grass... are spineless and defeated in the war. They immediately succumbed to Konoha's weak faction, and some of them were rebellious ninjas who were accepted without a bottom line, and the new ninjas they later trained!" Xiu's tone was full of disdain for the current grass ninjas.
After Guan Liyuan heard this, he showed a look of surprise...
No wonder the Kusanagi in Kosotsu's memories are so shameless, and the overseas Kusakure Village... Kusanagi also matches the Kusakure Village and Ghost Light Castle in the movie version!
Dongdong: Some of the settings in the theatrical version and TV originals are ridiculous, but Dongdong’s principle is... try not to miss any setting, and use your imagination to fill in any loopholes!
In addition, these few pictures are relatively bland, but when it comes time to transition chapters, Dongdong has nothing to do...
In fact, it can be seen from the beginning of the chapter that Dongdong always compresses the transitional chapters and tries to get straight to the point. Even the first few chapters seem a bit messy because there is not enough foreplay... It will be fine if the transitional part is over~~
Also...please vote for recommendation~~
