Naruto: The Strongest Sage

The incident was a big mistake.

A week later, just when the ninja world thought that Konoha was just talking and the incident was almost over, a new announcement detonated the entire ninja world.

Because Konoha issued a 60-page investigation report.

Most normal people would not pay attention to this kind of investigation report. But the surrounding ninja villages did not dare to be careless. They immediately began to analyze word by word and finally came to a conclusion.

The report meant that this terrorist attack was inextricably linked to the Kusagakure Village.

At this time, Kusagakure Village. A group of Kusagakure ninjas were gathered together with a confused look on their faces.

"What's going on? Why did Konoha suddenly attack us? Did you leak the news?"

"What do you mean we leaked the news? Our plans are consistent. We never left here before the plan started. How could we leak the news?"

"Then why did Konoha target us?"

"Things are indeed a bit complicated. It is true that they suffered a terrorist attack. But according to the analysis of our think tank, it should not be from the outside world. It should be the resistance force inside Konoha who is dissatisfied with Tsunade."

"So, they are trying to divert the attention of the village and turn the contradictions into Transfer to us? Impossible, this is not Konoha's style. "

"No, we can only say that this is not Sarutobi Hiruzen's style. And Sarutobi Hiruzen is no longer here. The current Hokage is Tsunade. It is entirely possible for her to do such a thing with her personality."

"Grass, Sarutobi Hiruzen, that coward, was actually killed by his own apprentice. What a waste."

"Okay, let's not miss Sarutobi Hiruzen here. Because no matter how we guess, we must face a situation. That is, what if Konoha really noticed something?"

Everyone in the room was silent.

At this moment, they missed Sarutobi Hiruzen even more. Just like the Western powers missed the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.

But no matter what, the Kusagakure Village is about to face Konoha.

"In that case, let's assume that Konoha has noticed it. Their intelligence system is far superior to ours. So, we need to speed up."

"How much time will it take?"

"At least a month to feed it."

"Speed ​​up, we may not have a month."

..............

In fact, from a strategic point of view, it is not the best choice to attack the Kusanagi.

If anyone has seen the map of the ninja world, they will find a problem. That is, the five major countries are not directly adjacent to each other.

Between any two major countries, there are more than one small country.

These small countries are actually the buffer zone of the big countries. Why are the trio of Nagato Yahiko and Konan so cynical.

It is because the Rain Village is the buffer zone between the Fire Country and the Sand Country and the Earth Country. The war between several major countries has caused the Rain Country to suffer.

Hanzo's combat power was overwhelming the ninja world, but in the end he failed to reverse the status of the Rain Country.

This is actually a conventional rule. After all, if the five major countries are directly adjacent to each other, any small friction will be a direct confrontation between the five major countries. It is easy to lose control of the heat.

After all, if the borders are directly adjacent to each other, one step forward is crossing the border. At that time, you will fight or not.

It is not worth spending so many resources to fight for such a small matter. But if you don't fight, you will lose face.

Therefore, it is a common practice that most conflicts take place in small countries at the border. Try not to damage the interests of your own country as much as possible. It doesn't matter if you cross the border, anyway, you haven't entered my territory.

This is the rule of the five gangsters, and it is also the sorrow of small countries.

After the investigation report was issued, the most horrified were the Daimyo of the Grass Country.

They know the comparison of the strength of the Grass Country and the Fire Country. Over the years, the Grass Country has always regarded itself as the younger brother of Konoha.

Now that the big brother is angry, of course we have to put out the fire quickly.

So the Daimyo of the Grass Country issued a document to reprimand the reckless actions of the Grass Village. While going directly to the door, he apologized to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Konoha also received the document from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire very quickly. They were reprimanded for not starting a war lightly.

Aoba naturally didn't care about the document from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. But it was still early, and his reform had just started. Most people had not yet developed the awareness that they could live without the Daimyo. Therefore, the Daimyo's document still had a certain influence.

Hokage's office, Tsunade

The daimyo's document was placed in front of Aoba.

Only Tsunade, Aoba, Kakashi, and Shikaku were present. It sounds like there are very few people. But if you think about Konoha being just a bigger village, it's understandable.

The four of them are currently the highest decision-makers in Konoha. They are also the executors of Aoba's great reform plan.

The daimyo has little deterrent power in their hearts, but the problem is that it's a bit early.

"According to the plan, we can't turn against the daimyo directly for the time being. So, we need to discuss the next action."

"Claim compensation. To save face at the moment, we can only get enough benefits, so that we can protect the emotions of the Konoha villagers. So, make this matter a reality and let the Kusanagi pay compensation."

Shikaku's suggestion is a very comprehensive one. According to the current situation, with the help of this matter, it is definitely possible to get a good "compensation" from the Kusanagi. But this is not what Aoba wants.

The current operation mode of the four-person team is like this. Aoba is the proposer of the plan, Tsunade is responsible for review, and as the Hokage, mobilizes resources and handles diplomatic issues.

Shikaku is responsible for improving the loopholes in the plan and responding to various temporary problems.

Kakashi currently takes over the Anbu in full. He is the executor of violent tasks. The previous attack on Tsunade was completely resolved by the Anbu led by Kakashi.

The four people have clear division of labor, and Shikaku's opinions are completely in line with reality. However, Aoba is still a little unwilling.

After all, the conservative coup of the Sarutobi clan is such a big thing. If it is not used well, it is really a bit sorry for the dead Sarutobi clan.

Moreover, the plan against the Kusanagi is not only a business, but also a personal emotion. Yumi and Karin's hatred is also an important factor in promoting this plan. After all, it has been several years, and it is time to end this grudge.

"Actually, I don't think this plan needs to end here. We can push it further and keep the plan going."

"We have already directly accused the Kusagakure of terrorist attacks, how much further can we push it?"

"This is not simple. The Kusagakure Village dared to attack Konoha, which means they must have some kind of support. Let's say that the Kusagakure Village secretly developed weapons of mass destruction and prepared to attack Konoha."

"..." Tsunade was silent for a while. Then she said.

"Have you forgotten that we made up the story of their attack on Konoha? Also, where did the Kusagakure Village get weapons of mass destruction? If they did, wouldn't they have been the sixth largest ninja village by now?"

"What if they did?"
