Konoha: The King of Souls from Uchiha

With the combined strength of the three of them, as long as they don't be careless, although the middle genin who cleans up the Iwa nin won't cut melons and vegetables, there is no danger.

Under the leadership of Namikaze Minato, Konoha's senior ninjas and Konoha ninjas from the northwest blocked the impact of the Iwa ninja.

When the Konoha ninja from other directions arrive, the Iwa ninja will be gone, and complete defeat will be a matter of time.

However, the Iwa Ninja are very tenacious. Even when faced with the threat of death, few Iwa Ninjas surrender.

Loyalty to Iwagakure is one thing. Surrendering and receiving limited treatment is another. After surrendering, the family members in the village will be humiliated and unable to hold their heads high.

After fighting for about two hours, at five o'clock in the afternoon, the Iwa ninja was finally strangled to death by Konoha.

Except for a handful of those who surrendered and were captured alive, the entire battlefield was littered with corpses from both sides, more than 1,300 in number. The battlefield was devastated, the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood filled the air, predatory birds hovered over the forest, and the atmosphere was filled with sadness and despair...

The Iwa ninja's stubborn resistance and fearless death also brought a lot of casualties to Konoha. The genin lost more than 500 people.

The quality of Iwa nin's genin is not high, and the quality of Konoha's genin is not much better. They are all simplified versions of ninja school training, and their quality is not as good as that of genin carefully trained in peacetime.

Konoha's truly elite genin have lost very few of them in years of war.

In the early days of the Third Ninja War, most of the genin of Konoha who survived were already chuunin, and there were even special jounin.

These talents are the elites who have emerged from the great waves, but unfortunately they are very few in number.

The battle was won, but the Konoha ninjas were not too happy, silently disposing of the corpses and cleaning the battlefield.

The death of companions is certainly one aspect, but more importantly, the years of war have numbed many ninjas, and even the excitement of victory is not strong enough.

Perhaps only when the war is over can the Konoha ninjas be happy...

Although there are still dangers when performing tasks in peacetime, the dangers are far worse than those on the battlefield.

After cleaning the battlefield, everyone dragged their tired bodies back to the camp. Those who should be busy continued to be busy, and those who should rest took a rest.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Gen is the one who should continue to be busy. As the seventh team directly under Minato, Minato is not the type to seek power for personal gain, so he inevitably has to do more.

Two days later, Minato received the order from the Third Hokage and took the remaining troops to the Country of Grass, where was the battlefield between Konoha and Iwagakure.

At the same time, Onoki, who was far away in the Tsuchikage Building in Iwagakure Village, also received news that the Iwagakure troops that had penetrated deep into the heart of the Land of Fire were completely annihilated.

Although Ohnoki had already expected it when he got the news that Kannabi Bridge was bombed, when the news came, Ohnoki still slumped in his chair helplessly.

Onoki couldn't understand why Konoha had so many talented people every generation, and every time there was a crisis, someone always stood up to turn the tide...

During the Warring States Period, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara dominated the world.

During the first great ninja war, the second generation Hokage was involved in various conflicts. Although he was eventually killed, Sarutobi Hiruzen and others led all the major strata of Konoha to stabilize the situation.

During the Second Ninja War, Konoha White Fang and Konoha Sannin appeared again. Overall, Konoha still did not suffer much.

Another Namikaze Minato appeared in the Third Ninja War, which is really annoying!

This was the establishment of the major ninja villages. It was the first time that the four major ninja villages invaded the hinterland of the Land of Fire. They had already pushed Konoha to the edge of the cliff, but... they still failed.

If you miss this opportunity, it’s hard to say whether there will be another opportunity in the future.

Could it be that Konoha is really destiny?

No, no, absolutely not!

Onoki shook the terrible thoughts out of his mind. If he lost confidence, wouldn't Iwagakure Village always be overwhelmed by Konoha?

I don’t believe Konoha has always had such good luck, let’s wait and see!

"Go and notify the elders of a meeting."

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage."

Fifteen minutes later, it was still in the large conference room. Ohnoki and the elders gathered together, with solemn expressions on their faces, and the atmosphere was very dull.

"First of all, I want to make a review. Iwagakure Village lost the bet. This is mainly my responsibility."

Onoki's body floated, and he bent down and bowed.

"No, no, no, this is the result of our unanimous agreement. It is not you, Tsuchikage-sama, who has your own way. The responsibility should be shared by us."

Onoki's number one confidant, the elder, spoke quickly.

Upon hearing this, Onoki's other confidants also quickly spoke up to support him. They sang a lot and quickly revealed the responsibility.

After all, collective responsibility means no one is responsible.

The other elders also had no objections. Firstly, everyone agreed, and secondly, they could not shake Ohnoki's position.

In this case, there is no need to speak.

"The battle failed, and the war situation in the Kingdom of Grass is anxious. Although I don't want to admit it, in fact Iwagakure has lost the chance to defeat Konoha."

"So, I plan to send an envoy to negotiate peace with Konoha and temporarily cease the war."

"Lord Tsuchikage, do you want to hold on for a while longer, what if there is a problem in Konoha on other battlefields?"

Onoki glanced at the elder who spoke strangely and said: "Don't be procrastinating in doing things, make decisions immediately."

"Fighting is not thorough, and peace is not serious. What good does procrastination do except lose combat power?"

"Besides, isn't it good to preserve strength through peace talks?"

"oh……"

The elder suddenly realized that Master Tsuchikage was prepared to tear up the treaty if he had the chance.

As expected of Tsuchikage-sama, that's enough... No wonder I am the elder and he is the Tsuchikage.

"But my situation is too small. Lord Tsuchikage is right."

"Lord Tsuchikage, where is Sunagakure Village?"

"When the war started, we and Sunagakure Village agreed to advance and retreat together."

Onoki looked speechless and said: "It's just a verbal agreement, can it be counted?"

"If it counts, do we still need to guard against Sunagakure at the border?"

"We are close to Sunagakure. A weak Sunagakure is a good Sunagakure."

"So the peace talks should not be carried out with great fanfare and should be conducted in secret."

"As long as you don't suffer a loss, you will agree to Konoha's request. Konoha is under great pressure and should not make excessive demands."

"We want the peace talks to end as soon as possible, and let the Konoha ninjas from the Country of Grass and the Country of Rain work together to weaken Sunagakure for us."

"In this way, even if Konoha does not reveal any flaws and the Third Ninja War is really over, we will still have something to gain, and we won't gain nothing."

Alas, these elders are not very smart. They insist on me speaking so clearly...

Sunagakure is weakened, which is good for Iwagakure and Konoha. The share of tasks in the ninja world is only so large.

Whether they really didn't expect it or they had already thought of it, the elders of Iwagakure looked like they were suddenly enlightened, giving the leaders a full sense of accomplishment.

Therefore, before Namikaze Minato brought reinforcements to the battlefield of Grass Country, before he could take action, Iwagakure's envoy secretly entered Konoha's military camp.

The news of Iwagakure's request for peace talks was sent to Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk as quickly as possible.

Sarutobi Hiruzen really didn't want to continue fighting with Iwagakure, and he was keenly aware that peace talks with Iwagakure would be a turning point in the war of the ninja world.

Iwagakure retreated. Even if he wanted to sit back and watch the fight, as long as Konoha defeated Sunagakure cleanly, Iwagakure would not dare to act rashly.

Iwagakure and Sunagakure have withdrawn one after another, and the only enemies Konoha needs to deal with are Kumogakure and Kirigakure.

Concentrate your efforts to deal with Kumogakure first, force Kumogakure to negotiate, and the last Kirigakure family will be solved.

With this, the Ninja World War would be over, and Konoha would be able to recuperate and take a breather.

Therefore, the peace negotiation conditions given by Sarutobi Hiruzen were very loose, and the main thing was that no one would suffer.

The ones responsible for the negotiations were Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato on the front line.

The Iwagakure envoy also received the instructions from the superiors. The two sides looked at each other, and the peace talks were very fast.

After the peace talks were reached, in order to allow Konoha to deal with Sunagakure without any worries, Iwagakure kept his promise and withdrew most of the army from the Country of Grass, leaving only a small number of necessary ninjas.

Seeing that Iwagakure kept his promise, before Sunagakure could react, Konoha left the necessary ninja behind and mobilized the army to kill Sunagakure's frontline base camp at the border of Rain Country and River Country...
