After recovering, Tsunade frowned as she listened to the news brought by Shizune.

Unfortunately, the news was released by the Hokage Building and was not detailed.

Tsunade immediately stood up: "I'll go to the old man."

Shizune hurriedly followed. She was very excited by the news before, but now seeing Tsunade's attitude, she began to worry.

When Tsunade came to the Hokage's office, she found that Jiraiya, Mitomon En, and Danzo were also there.

After seeing Tsunade, Jiraiya immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, Shuichi is not injured."

"Bunta said that his strength has surpassed his teacher Minato!"

Tsunade nodded coldly, but she was completely relieved in secret, and then asked, "The Mist Ninja suffered heavy losses, I'm afraid they will launch an attack immediately?"

Mitomon En nodded, "Hirozen has decided to reinforce the east immediately, and Jiraiya and I will set off later."

Tsunade asked, "What about the River Country?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "The Hidden Mist Village is too far away from there, and the possibility of attacking from there after the whole army is annihilated is extremely low."

"As for the Hidden Sand Village, the losses on the front line this time are very minor, and the current military strength is sufficient. The main force of the Hidden Sand Village is still in the north."

Tsunade was silent and did not ask any more questions.

After a while, the meeting ended, and Jiraiya and Tsunade walked on the street together.

"Don't worry, Shuichi is already very powerful, and there is also Flying Thunder God."

Jiraiya knew Tsunade too well, and smiled to comfort her.

Tsunade snorted coldly: "I want to remind you, be careful, don't die on the battlefield."

Jiraiya laughed suddenly: "Tsunade, I am the Toad Sage of Myoboku Mountain, and there is no such powerful Jinchūriki in the Hidden Mist Village."

After laughing, he suggested: "Let's go for a drink together!"

Tsunade nodded silently.

...

In the Hidden Mist Village, the Mizukage Building, the atmosphere in the conference room was depressing.

The news that the army led by Kizuki Shingetsu was completely annihilated was too shocking.

Before, Kizuki Shingetsu's troops lost contact, although it felt bad, but I never thought it would be this result.

Suddenly, a voice broke the silence: "Mizukage-sama, issue an order!"

"Such a shame can only be washed away with blood!"

"My Kaguya clan is willing to be the vanguard!"

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man, full of excitement and fighting spirit at the moment, and that smile was full of bloodthirstiness.

Their clan was born for fighting, and now is the time for them to play a role!

The head of the Hozuki clan, Hozuki Kaguya, said in a deep voice: "What the head of the clan, Kaguya, said is right!"

"The intelligence sent back earlier has confirmed that the Burning Release Ye Cang was rescued by Konoha!"

The Hozuki clan suffered too much loss this time, Hozuki Xinyue, the backbone of the clan, and Hozuki Mieyin, the candidate to be trained as the future head of the clan.

Then other people who attended the meeting also expressed their opinions and agreed to launch an attack on Konoha.

Because this was originally a plan before, but it was just a little ahead of time.

The Third Mizukage, who had been lowering his eyes, opened his eyes, glanced at Hozuki Kizuki and Kaguya Daisuke, and said: "Then let the Kaguya clan and Hozuki clan be the vanguard, and Karatachi Yagura be the commander."

"In addition, after the war begins, let the Seven Ninja Swordsmen infiltrate the Land of Fire and carry out a decapitation operation against the Konoha Command."

"If you encounter that person named Shuichi Hoshita, surround and kill him with all your strength!"

"Send people to the Sand Village, and be sure to obtain information about Shuichi Hoshita as quickly as possible!"

"Pass the order on, ordinary ninjas can give up their missions when they encounter Shuichi Hoshita!"

...

As the high-level meeting ended, the news was quickly spread.

More than a thousand ninjas from the village were wiped out!

This caused an uproar in the entire Kirigakure Village, and then the fighting spirit of the entire Kirigakure Village was unprecedentedly high.

And among the ninja community, Shuichi Hoshita's name quickly spread.

After all, it is too rare for ordinary ninjas to encounter such orders to give up their missions, and such orders were issued to a 12-year-old kid.

The ninjas knew about it, and their families gradually knew the name of Shuichi Hoshita, which was spreading step by step.

…

At the same time, the Sand Village also set off an uproar.

Because they had just won the defense against the Rock Ninja, but they didn't expect to be defeated so badly in a blink of an eye.

The name Shuichi Hoshita once again entered the minds of every Sand Ninja, and unlike the last time, the name of Shuichi Hoshita began to spread to ordinary villagers in the Sand Village.

A day later, the daimyo of the Wind Country also received the battle report from the Sand Village, and was instantly impressed by the name Shuichi Hoshita.

And the third generation of Tsuchikage in the Rock Village received the news later.

Although they tried their best to investigate the intelligence of the war, the intelligence was finally obtained from Konoha.

"This Shuichi Hoshita..."

Onoki frowned: "It seems that he is very likely to be the one who attacked the third generation of Kazekage!"

He has two pieces of information in his hand.

One is from Konoha, of course, it is the "good news" announced by Konoha.

But combined with the information obtained by his own intelligence department, it was confirmed that the news released by Konoha was not exaggerated.

Another piece of information came from the Sand Village, and it could even be said to be the fourth generation Kazekage.

It was more accurate information about Shuichi Hoshita, which mentioned Lava Release.

Although Shuichi Hoshita had never used the power of Lava Release in front of the Sand Ninja, he left traces when he attacked the Mist Ninja.

"Father, it seems that the Sand Ninja is willing to negotiate."

Huang Tu said.

The information obtained from the Sand Ninja was very deliberate.

Ohnoki snorted: "The Fourth Kazekage will not take the initiative to negotiate with us."

Huangtu hesitated for a moment and said: "Now is indeed a time to join forces with the Sand Ninja."

"The Mist Ninja will definitely launch a large-scale war against the Fire Country."

"And according to the intelligence, the Cloud Ninja is also ready to move, and Konoha has even increased its troops to defend the north."

Onoki was very calm at this time and said: "It's not enough."

"We need the Sand Ninja to further contain Konoha's power."

"Let the front line retreat a little so that the Sand Ninja can free up more power."

How could he not understand the meaning of the Fourth Kazekage, which is to let their Iwagakure Village propose peace talks first.

But the disappearance and even death of the Third Kazekage had nothing to do with them, so why should they admit their mistakes?

After thinking for a while, Ohnoki asked, "If we launch a war against the Land of Fire, where do you think it is best to attack from?"

Huang Tu thought for a while and said, "From the closest distance, the Land of Grass!"

"We must not give Konoha time to react and occupy the advantageous situation first."

"From the Land of Rain, Konoha has deployed a strong force there. On the contrary, although the Land of Grass is on good terms with Konoha, the current leader of the Grass Village has a closer relationship with us."

"They will not overestimate their own strength and fight us to death for Konoha, so we can go beyond Konoha's expectations and quickly pass through the Land of Grass, raid the border of the Land of Fire, and catch Konoha off guard!"

"Moreover, if we attack from the direction of the Land of Grass, our supply line is also the closest."

Ohnoki nodded slightly and said, "Go and prepare!"

Huang Tu's expression immediately became serious after hearing this: "Understood!"

...

Time flashed to May of the 45th year of Konoha.

In the Land of Rivers, under the waterfall, Shuichi Hoshita opened his eyes and showed a happy expression: "Finally it's done!"

Just now, the shadow clone released the feedback memory, and the research on the spirit transformation technique finally made progress.

In fact, he had gained some ideas when he used "Flash of Inspiration" last time, but the outbreak of the war left him with little time to study. Now that he is confronting the Sand Village, he finally has some results.

"Shisui!"

Shuichi Hoshita stood up and walked out of the waterfall.
