Chapter 245: Prelude to the Great War
"Bah!"
"These are all your excuses, lies!"
Kurotsuchi did not agree with Deidara's explanation at all. She had no idea of Akatsuki's strength.
It was impossible to imagine that the five major villages could not defeat a powerful enemy together.
This simply could not exist!
Just like modern people could not imagine that the five major rogue countries combined could not defeat an underground terrorist organization...
"Hey!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now."
"You will understand my brother's painstaking efforts when the time comes."
Deidara put his hands on his waist and said narcissistically.
He really meant for the good of the Hidden Rock Village, but he chose a different path.
"Understand shit!"
"Wait until the old man comes back, and you will cry!"
"When the time comes, he will definitely kill you!"
"Don't expect me to plead for you!"
Kurotsuchi knew the old man Ohnoki too well. He really loved Deidara, but he would definitely be cruel and would never show mercy!
The Akatsuki organization would lose by then.
Even if Deidara kneels down in front of the old man and begs for mercy, it's probably useless!
Damn it, what should I do?
"Hmph! The old man is obviously that old, but he's still showing off."
"He probably can't even beat me now, let alone Brother Scorpion and the others..."
"Don't worry, if I meet Akatsuki and your father, I will try my best to save their lives."
"As for the old man himself, I hope he sprains his waist soon."
"Otherwise, there will be no way to survive..."
Deidara muttered and complained, while roughly stuffing the rice ball into the mouth of his junior sister Kurotsuchi.
He doesn't know how to be gentle with women at all, and his eyes are only on art.
"Woo~~~"
"Woo~~~"
Kurotsuchi's face was covered with rice while struggling, but she still ate some of it honestly.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have made it to today.
If she really died of hunger, she wouldn't even have the strength to escape from prison. Wouldn't that be even more stupid?
"Okay, take a rest."
"I'll see you tomorrow."
"Get lost! You bastard..."
Deidara left contentedly.
Although my junior sister doesn't understand me now, she will understand my good intentions when everything is over in the future.
...
Deidara walked out of the cell, and the communication ring on his hand just lit up.
That was the notice of the emergency assembly.
Is something big happening?
Or is the attack from the ninja coalition coming?
Xiao Di quickened his pace and soon met Scorpion at the corner.
The latter seemed to have been waiting here for a long time.
"Brother Scorpion, why are you here?"
"Fortunately you didn't do anything stupid..."
"Ah?"
"Let's not talk about this. Did you receive the leader's notice?"
"Of course, Brother Scorpion, what happened?"
"The five-village coalition has arrived."
"Ah?"
"The coalition is estimated to be about a hundred miles away from the Hidden Rock Village, and it is estimated that it will arrive in a few dozen minutes."
"What? How could it be?"
Deidara was very puzzled. This was different from the information he received yesterday!
Didn't the ninja coalition still stay in the Grass Country? Why did they suddenly send troops to the Hidden Rock Village?
And they arrived in less than a day. How efficient is that?
"Why did they go straight to the Hidden Rock Village? Shouldn't the main target be the Rain Village?"
"They have no choice. The final battlefield can only be the Hidden Rock Village..."
"Huh?"
Deidara was confused. Why did the final battlefield have to be in the Hidden Rock Village?
Explain it clearly!
Scorpion glanced at Deidara and continued to explain:
"Three days ago, the leader sent two teams to attack separately, one to the Wind Country and the other to the Lightning Country."
"It is estimated that they arrived at the border of the two countries yesterday."
"And these two teams will deliberately expose themselves to the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Sand Village."
"Huh? What does this mean?" Deidara was still confused.
"It means to deliberately warn the ninja coalition. If they choose to attack the Rain Village, then Akatsuki and the main force of the Rain Village will attack the Cloud Village and the Sand Village."
"To achieve the effect of changing homes again!"
"Thus forcing the ninja coalition to give up attacking the Rain Village and be forced to attack the Rock Village for a decisive battle!"
After hearing this, Deidara was shocked: "The leader doesn't care about the Rain Village at all?"
"No, he cares about the Rain Village very much."
"Then he dares to gamble with the Rain Village?"
"Because the other side can't afford to lose even more!"
Nagato on Akatsuki's side can make a single decision and put the Rain Village on the gambling table.
But the ninja coalition can't do that. The Cloud Village and the Sand Village can't accept the consequences of changing homes.
Therefore, they will never agree to put their own nests on the gambling table.
If other villages insist on attacking the Rain Village, the five-village coalition will inevitably fall apart in an instant...
This is an open conspiracy.
Whoever can't afford to lose can only be led by the other side.
Therefore.
After getting this news.
There was no more dispute within the ninja coalition, and they quickly reached a consensus, unanimously choosing to launch a massive attack on the Hidden Rock Village, and to fight a decisive battle with the Akatsuki organization in the Hidden Rock Village!
They set out overnight and headed straight for the Hidden Rock Village.
As long as they could win, everything would be fine.
…
Xiao Di was not stupid, and after being pointed out by Scorpion, he understood instantly.
To put it bluntly, Nagato deliberately created this conspiracy and gambling game to force the ninja coalition to come to the Hidden Rock Village for a decisive battle.
What a pity.
In this case, the Land of Earth and the Hidden Rock Village, which are destined to become a battlefield, will definitely suffer heavy losses...
"How can this be so despicable?"
"The leader is also good at such tricks?"
Scorpion shook his head: "It was not the leader's plan, but someone else's proposal."
"Whose proposal?"
"Itachi."
"That bastard? Damn it! He actually used the Hidden Rock Village as cannon fodder, I'm so angry!"
When Xiaodi heard that it was Itachi's evil plan, he was immediately furious.
Ever since he was killed instantly by Itachi's illusion last time, he has always been unhappy with that guy, always thinking about finding a chance to win back the place in the future.
Unexpectedly, he didn't win back his face, but actually lost the village first.
If the Hidden Rock Village eventually becomes a decisive battlefield, then his previous plan of "inviting wolves into the house and sleeping on straw and tasting gall" will become a complete joke!
Uchiha Itachi, this guy who doesn't deserve to be a son of man!
So hateful!
"How come I don't know anything about it?"
"Don't you know what you were doing the past few days?"
Deidara's face darkened.
The Hidden Rock Village was just occupied a few days ago, and various resistance elements appeared from time to time in the village.
In order to reduce casualties, Deidara has been using art to persuade those stubborn resistance elements, but the casualties have increased.
In addition, he had to take care of Kurotsuchi and others, so he didn't pay much attention to the actions of Akatsuki.
Completely ignored the vicious plan offered by Itachi.
"Damn it, there is no need to set up the Hidden Rock Village as a battlefield?"
"The Land of Earth is so big, we can set up ambushes and attacks in other areas..."
Deidara is still arguing, trying to change the outcome.
"It's useless. The ninja coalition has many sensory ninjas. Ordinary ambushes are meaningless."
"As for the decisive battle in other places?"
"How can we use Iwagakure, one of the five major villages, as a battlefield to limit the ninja coalition?"
"There are still many Iwagakure ninjas and residents living in the village. Fighting here can more or less limit the performance of the ninja coalition."
"By the way, we can use the coalition to further destroy Iwagakure and destroy the alliance between Iwagakure and them."
"Deidara, do you really think that the leader readily agreed to you to make Iwagakure the first target of capture just because you can be an insider?"
Scorpion saw through all this.
Or, these reasons were part of the reasons Itachi used to persuade Nagato at the time.
But this was too cruel for Deidara.
He always thought he was saving Iwagakure, but in the end he pushed the village into the abyss with his own hands?
"I, I..."
"Brother Scorpion, what else can I do?"
Deidara was extremely depressed, feeling as if he had messed up everything.
Scorpion patted Deidara, Xiaodi was the only person he trusted in the Akatsuki organization.
After all, apart from Xiaodi, even Pein had never seen his true body.
"Don't think too much."
"You can't change anything now."
"The only thing you can do is to try to contain the battlefield outside your village."
"As long as you defeat the ninja coalition outside the village as soon as possible, everything will be fine."
Scorpion was not very good at comforting people, so he persuaded truthfully.
But Deidara felt better after hearing this, and had more hope.
As long as the ninja coalition could be defeated quickly, it would be sure that the Hidden Rock Village could be saved as much as possible. This was the only way out of no other way.
"Okay!"
"This is the only way..."
"I will use my art to quickly blow up all the ninja coalitions!"
Xiaodi was a little excited.
At the same time, he and Scorpion rushed to the main entrance of the Hidden Rock Village.
Here, the core members of Akatsuki have already assembled and are waiting for the arrival of the ninja alliance.
Preparing for the prelude to the decisive battle.
