Chapter 384 Three Shadows Gather
After Iwagakure arrived, two days later, the team led by the Fourth Kazekage also arrived in Konoha.
The person in charge of receiving the Sunagakure team was senior consultant Mito Kadeni.
Mitomon didn't have much favorable impressions of this village that almost invaded Konoha itself in the last war.
But he has been a high-level executive for so many years and was an elite ninja with acceptable strength when he was young. He can still control basic expressions.
Although he didn't say how enthusiastic he was, it didn't mean that Sunagakure felt that Konoha didn't welcome them.
No matter how different Mito Gate's political opinions are from Nagazawa, when facing outsiders, Mito Gate, like Nagasawa, will protect Konoha's interests.
"This area is your Sunagakure accommodation area. Next to it is Iwagakure and Kumogakure. There is a training ground here and a canteen that provides food." Mito Monobu led Rasha and Sunagakure's team to Sunagakure's.
area.
"When did Iwagakure arrive?" Luo Sha looked at the lively atmosphere at Iwagakure and then asked.
Mito Kadoren glanced at Luo Sha indifferently, and then replied: "Iwagakure is two days ahead of you. They arrived two days ago, but there are still eight days left before the Chunin Exam, so you still have enough time to prepare.
Chuunin Examination."
"In addition, someone will give you the specific itinerary for the Chuunin Exam. You just need to feel at ease and adjust your condition."
"Then thank you Mitomon consultant." Luo Sha said.
"The Fourth Kazekage doesn't have to be like this, this is all Konoha's normal procedure." Mito Kadenen said calmly, and then left quickly.
"Kazekage-sama, it seems that Konoha is indeed planning to hold an unprecedented chunin exam this time. These are things that were not available in normal chunin exams before." A person next to Luosha wrapped his head in white cloth and covered half of his face.
Young Sunagakure spoke.
The corners of Luo Sha's lips raised, and she sneered: "This news is spreading throughout the Ninja world now. Even if Konoha didn't originally have this idea, they would definitely go ahead and do it accordingly.
Maji, the benefits of this are far beyond your imagination. A large number of nobles and wealthy businessmen will gather in Konoha, and many of them will not even be from the Land of Fire, but foreign nobles and wealthy businessmen. Maybe there will be many of us from the Wind Country.
of the country.”
"Those guys..." Speaking of the nobles and wealthy businessmen of the Kingdom of Wind, the ninja named Marki frowned.
"Those people who have no eyesight only saw our few trivial failures and thought that our strength is not as good as other great ninja villages. They are really a bunch of ridiculous ordinary people." Ma Ji said angrily.
He was very dissatisfied with the nobles of the Kingdom of Wind, headed by the daimyo. Without Sand Hidden Village, how could the Kingdom of Wind compete with other big countries in terms of military strength?
It's really stupid to drastically reduce the funding of Sunagakure Village just because of two defeats.
This will only make the situation worse for Suna Ninja, who is in a bad situation.
What makes Maki even more ashamed and angry is that due to the massive cuts in funding by the daimyo, the fourth generation Kazekage they respected had to use his magnetic escape sand gold to earn funds for Sunagakure Village.
This is what Ma Ji can't stand. That's a shadow. He has no choice but to use blood to make profits because of financial constraints.
"Haha, Ma Ji, you all know how stupid those guys are, so don't worry about them." Luo Sha sneered.
"Although Konoha will gain a lot of benefits from this Chunin Exam, if our ninjas show stronger power than Konoha's ninjas, Konoha's Chunin Exam will be a wedding dress for us."
Compared to Onoki, who wanted to take a good look at Konoha's strength, Rasa's purpose was simpler, which was to win the Chunin Exam.
Luo Shazhen's goal is simple, that is, to make money. Don't say anything to him now. He is just short of money and just wants to make money.
Although Rasa makes it easy, as long as you defeat the ninjas of Konoha, you can reap the fruitful fruits of Konoha's grand Chunin Exam.
But it is not that easy to defeat the Konoha ninjas in Konoha. Konoha is not a small ninja village, but a ninja village that has always stood at the top of the five major ninja villages.
But Rasa also knew that apart from that, he had no other choice. Can Sunagakure Village hold a chunin exam of this level? No.
This does not mean that you can just send out an invitation letter, but others must be willing to accept it.
Konoha is strong and has always been the victor in wars. The location of the village is also excellent, with beautiful mountains and clear waters.
If Suna Ninja follows Konoha's steps to hold such a chuunin exam, he will only end up humiliating himself.
Will Onoki take advantage of him? Of course not, but with Onoki's cautious character, he might casually send two teams of Iwagakure to deal with it.
With Yunyin's temper, he wouldn't even bother to deal with it, so he just ignored him.
Those wealthy businessmen probably would not be willing to cross the sky of yellow sand to go to the Sand Hidden Village in the desert.
Although Sand Hidden Village is in an oasis, not everyone can bear the wind and sand on the road.
Maybe this is the reason why the name of the Kingdom of Wind dares to drastically cut funding? There is just such a large desert, and you can't do anything with it.
Not to mention Sunagakure, Rasa felt that it was impossible for Kumogakure and Iwagakure to reach the level of Konoha.
Because Iwagakure cannot call Kumogakure, and the road conditions over Iwagakure are also very poor, with high mountains everywhere.
At this moment, Luo Sha suddenly realized that Konoha was like the chosen one.
Located in the Land of Fire, the terrain is flat, the environment is beautiful, and it is an important transportation thoroughfare. There are also an absurd number of geniuses in the village, and many powerful people who are famous in the ninja world appear every time.
Then thinking back to Sunagakure, not only was the environment in the Kingdom of Wind poor, with yellow sand and desert everywhere, but the nobles in the country were also at odds with Sunagakure...
"There is a long way to go..." Luo Sha sighed.
"I believe that under your leadership, the Fourth Kazekage-sama, we Sunagakure will dominate the ninja world and become the number one ninja village." Maki's eyes flashed.
"It's a pity that Gaara, a loser, can't control Shukaku, otherwise we could have brought him here this time." Rasa said with some reluctance.
If Gaara could control the tailed beast, it wouldn't matter if he was only three years old. With the power of the tailed beast, it wouldn't be a problem to sweep all the genin.
(The calculation of age in this book is based on birthdays. Gaara's birthday is January 19th, so he is now three years old, while Naruto and Sasuke are still two years old)
(Note: Since I don’t know the specific time of the Chuunin Exam, I only know it twice a year, so I set it to March in the first half of the year and September in the second half of the year. The current time is the end of February)
This time Ma Ji didn't speak, because it was related to Rasa's family. Rasa could call Gaara useless, but he couldn't say that.
In fact, Maki felt that Gaara was very pitiful. His mother died when he was born, and he became a Jinchuuriki, hated and feared by the villagers.
Even though he was just a child, he was still under such tremendous pressure. Normal people would feel pity for Gaara like this.
But on the other hand, he could understand Luo Sha's approach.
There is no power that comes for no reason. You must go through enough suffering to build strong strength.
Rasa did this in order to urgently strengthen Gaara's ability to control emotions, so that he could maintain his true heart and control the tailed beast when transforming into a tailed beast.
To blame, I can only blame Gaara for being born as the fourth generation Kazekage's son in the Suna Ninja Village when there were no jinchūriki.
"Take some repairs, assign a place to live, and then start training." Luo Sha ordered.
In order to win the Chunin Exam, even eight days must not be missed.
……………………
"Hmph, Konoha, let me see what tricks you are planning to play." Looking at the tall wooden door, the Yondaime Raikage, wearing only a white cloak on his upper body, snorted coldly.
One day after Sunagakure arrived, Kumogakure also arrived in Konoha.
The purpose of the Fourth Raikage is different from that of the Fourth Kazekage. It is not to attract wealthy merchants and nobles by virtue of his performance in the Chunin Exam.
They have good connections and famous names in Yunyin Village, and their annual funds are sufficient. Moreover, Yunyin also has control of many mineral veins, so there is no shortage of money at all.
But according to the Raikage's idea, either he didn't come, or he couldn't embarrass Kumogakure when he came, so he also brought many excellent Kumogakure genin.
In the last war with Konoha, Kumogakure lost miserably. If Onogi Rasa and the others had not come this time, the Fourth Raikage would not have dared to come.
Being reckless doesn't mean that he wants to die in a meaningless way.
When he arrives in Konoha, what can he do if he wants to do it?
At this moment, the Fourth Raikage once again recalled the horror of being dominated by the Hokage's assistant named Fujiwara Nagasawa that night.
Facing such a terrifying guy, it might take a village to resist it.
Walking into Konoha, the Fourth Raikage was still thinking about what Konoha's purpose was this time, when a person he really didn't want to see walked in front of him.
"The Yondaime Raikage, long time no see." Nagazawa smiled and greeted the dark-skinned and muscular tough guy in front of him.
That's right, it was Nagaze who was responsible for receiving Kumogakure's team.
Nagaze knew that Kumogakure liked to cause trouble, although he could quickly tell everything in Konoha that Kumogakure could not make any big waves.
In line with the principle of saving trouble, Nagaze decided to scare Kumo Gakure so that they would be more honest while in Konoha.
Looking at Nagazawa's bright smile, the Fourth Raikage's already dark face not only turned darker, but his right hand also felt vague pain.
During that night attack, the two used lightning ninjutsu to fight at the same time, but the result was that the Fourth Raikage was defeated, and most of his palm was cut off by Nagazawa's hand knife.
Later, a lot of valuable resources were wasted to restore Raikage's palm to its original state.
When I saw Yongze again at this moment, the severe pain of his palm being torn apart by lightning appeared again.
Nagaze put away his smile, looked at the Fourth Raikage, and his aura exploded only for the Fourth Raikage.
When he met Nagaze's gaze, the sun was clearly shining brightly, but the Fourth Raikage felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His whole body was cold, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He felt as if something powerful beyond his understanding was staring at him, making him unable to even move.
Do it.
Although the people around him didn't know what was going on, they sensed that something was wrong with Raikage's state. Kumogakure and others started to move one after another, channeling their chakra and looking at Nagaze cautiously.
When the surrounding Konoha ninjas saw that Kumogakure had changed, they also surrounded Kumogakure. In an instant, the atmosphere became tense.
Suddenly, Nagaze withdrew his momentum against the Fourth Raikage, showed a smiling expression, and said: "Everyone, whatever you are doing, relax, this is Konoha, there is no need to be so alert, no one can cause trouble in Konoha."
"Put down your kunai. Kumogakure is a guest from afar. How can you point your weapons at your allies?"
The Fourth Raikage took a deep breath, turned to the Kumogakure behind him and said, "All hands down."
Seeing that the Fourth Raikage had spoken, Kumogakure and others lowered their hands one after another, and the originally tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed.
With a bright smile on his face, Nagaze introduced Konoha to Kumogakure and his party.
But Kumogakure's ninjas rarely responded.
The Fourth Raikage lowered his head slightly and squeezed hard with his casserole-sized fists, but soon separated them.
He couldn't understand why Yongze gave him a stronger feeling than that night after so little time had passed.
That time, when Nagaze didn't go out of his way to attack with all his strength, he was still able to fight the opponent a few times.
Now the opponent can suppress him just by relying on his momentum, and he doesn't dare to move.
And he was the only one to feel this powerful aura. Even the fourth generation Raikage, the enemy, could not help but feel that this control was extremely subtle.
'Could it be that that night, he actually never used his true strength and was just playing with us.' A terrible thought appeared in Lei Ying's mind.
If it was really what he thought, then Yongze's danger would be even greater than he imagined.
The Fourth Raikage looked at Nagaze.
Kumogakure's indifference did not affect Nagazawa's enthusiasm. This strong man who once killed Kumogakure's 1,700 elite ninja troops with one punch was solemnly recommending Konoha's dango shop to Kumogakure's friends.
"For ramen, go to Ichiraku Ramen. For dango, it can only be Boss Watanabe's dango shop. Although the name is simple and unpretentious, the taste of the dango is indeed the best in Konoha..."
Seeing that the Kumogakure ninja still showed no reaction, Nagaze raised his eyebrows, and his powerful aura was slightly released.
"It seems that you Kumogakure ninjas don't like the topic of dango?"
A powerful aura descended on everyone in Kumogakure. Although Nagasawa was very gentle this time, these Kumogakure did not have the strength of the Fourth Raikage, and many of them were even genin.
So Kumogakure's team suddenly froze, and they all stopped in place, with cold sweat on their foreheads. They finally knew what the Fourth Raikage had just experienced.
"I'm interested, I like to eat dumplings the most." A Kumogakure jounin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a slight shiver.
If someone always has to take on the role of a clown, that person must not be their shadow, so the Jonin stepped forward.
Yongze felt that it was almost done, so he put away his momentum, smiled again and said:
"Actually, besides Boss Watanabe's dumplings, there are also..."
The moment Nagaze put away his momentum, Kumogakure's team instantly felt their bodies relax and their whole bodies became relaxed.
Now no one dared not to reply, even if they insisted, they were still responding to Yongze.
