The ninja world had not been quiet for long when a huge and shocking news suddenly came, and it was from the Sunagakure Ninja Village among the five major ninja villages.
The Third Kazekage of the Sunagakure Ninja Village, known as the strongest of all generations, has mysteriously disappeared. Although the Sunagakure Ninja Village has been trying hard to conceal this news, there are no walls in the world that do not leak. All the major ninja villages have spies in the Sunagakure Ninja Village. At first, all the major ninja villages were skeptical about this news, but under this public opinion, they had to believe that the Third Kazekage was really missing or had an accident. After all, at this time, the Third Kazekage actively hid himself, which was of no benefit to the Sunagakure Ninja Village.
At this time, in the Kumogakure of the Land of Thunder, the Third Raikage Ai was listening to the information about the Sunagakure Ninja Village in the Wind Country, and an ambition quickly spread in his heart.
"This is a good opportunity for our military expansion."
The Third Raikage leaned back in his chair and spoke in a very domineering tone.
"Are you sure? Raikage-sama, this is likely to cause the Third Ninja War."
The Kumogakure's staff officer widened his eyes and said in shock.
The battle between two major ninja villages is not as simple as the friction between small ninja villages. Other major ninja villages may also take advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
"Hmph, we not only want to declare war on the Sunagakure Ninja Village, but also on the Iwagakure Village and Konohagakure Village."
Ai said arrogantly.
"Raikage-sama, are you sure? In this case, we are likely to become the public enemy of the ninja world."
"Hmph, what are you afraid of, we Kumogakure have two Jinchuriki, the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails."
At this time, a naive voice came from outside the door, but in the voice, one could faintly hear a sense of Haki.
"Ai, you're here."
The Third Raikage heard this voice and spoke.
"Father, I fully agree with your proposal. We Kumogakure are qualified to wage war on multiple ninja villages at the same time."
Ai spoke, this is the future Fourth Raikage, although he has not yet succeeded to the position of Raikage, but has already received the title of Ai, everyone in Kumogakure knows that when the Third Raikage retires, the successor will definitely be this Ai.
And behind him is the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure, Killer Bee.
"You are indeed my son."
The Third Raikage looked at Ai and said with satisfaction.
"Gather the troops, march towards the Sunagakure Ninja Village, I will personally lead the team to the Iwagakure Village, as for the Konohagakure Village, I will leave it to you two."
The Third Raikage's actions were very fast. When he decided to wage war, he had already planned everything in his heart.
"Yes, Raikage-sama."
The staff of Kumogakure immediately started to take action, knowing that the Third Raikage's intention to wage war was determined, and the current situation had become unstoppable.
The disappearance of the Third Kazekage led many ninja villages to start planning for the big cake of the Wind Country. Although the environment of the Wind Country is not good, it is after all one of the five major ninja villages, and it also has a One-Tail. You should know that every Tailed Beast can become a strategic weapon that determines the outcome of a war.
Land of Fire, Konohagakure Village.
"Hiruzen, this is a good opportunity to take down the Sunagakure Ninja Village. As long as we can take down the Sunagakure Ninja Village in one fell swoop, then our Konohagakure will become the truly strongest ninja village."
In the conference room, Shimura Danzo spoke very aggressively.
When he learned of the disappearance of the Third Kazekage, he had been proposing to Sarutobi Hiruzen to attack the Sunagakure Ninja Village, but every time he was refuted by Sarutobi Hiruzen.
So this time, he was well prepared, not coming alone, but also brought two advisors from Konohagakure, Mito Homura and Utatane Koharu.
"Yes, Hiruzen, taking down the Sunagakure Village, regardless of the useless land, just the One-Tail is enough for our loss in this war."
Utatane Koharu also spoke.
Although Mito Homura did not speak, the Third Hokage obviously already knew what he wanted to express.
"Do you know how much manpower and material resources this war will cost our Konohagakure Village? How many ninjas will be sacrificed because of this battle?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with some heartache.
"For the future of Konohagakure, these losses are inevitable."
Danzo said decisively.
Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to say something, an Anbu suddenly appeared in the conference room and then whispered a few words in the ear of the Third Hokage.
Then, the Third Hokage's face immediately showed a shocked and incredible expression.
"What's wrong, Hiruzen?"
Danzo quickly asked, it must be a big deal, otherwise, Anbu would not rashly interrupt this high-level meeting.
"The Third Ninja War has already begun, Kumogakure has declared war on our Konohagakure Village, Sunagakure Ninja Village, and Iwagakure Village."
"What? How dare the Third Raikage?"
Utatane Koharu said incredulously, if it weren't for this news coming from the mouth of the Third Hokage, she would suspect that someone was joking with her.
"Hmph, since they dare to come, let them come and go."
A faint killing intent also appeared on Danzo.
"But Hiruzen, this time it's all because of your conservative character, otherwise we would have taken the initiative."
"Don't mention it anymore, let Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Namikaze Minato come over, it's time to start arranging the war meeting, this can already be called the Third Ninja War."
Mitokado Homura spoke, there is no use arguing about those things now.
During this period, all tasks of the Konohagakure Village have been stopped, and all ninjas who are performing tasks outside have also begun to be recalled.
The Third Ninja War is about to break out, and there is no time to deal with other unimportant tasks.
"It's really rare, we were all gathered together."
In the conference room, Orochimaru spoke after looking at the people around.
At this moment, all the high-ranking figures of Konohagakure Village appeared in the conference room.
"I have some bad news to tell you all, the Third Ninja War, instigated by Kumogakure, is about to begin."
"What?"
Upon hearing what the Third Hokage said, Jiraiya was immediately shocked.
"Old man, you're not joking with me, are you?"
"Do you think I would joke about war? It won't be long before the whole ninja world will know about this, so we must prepare in advance. All the borders of the Land of Fire must be heavily guarded, and there can't be any slip-ups."
"So what do we need to do now?"
Orochimaru extended his long tongue and licked his lips. Although he didn't like war, he disliked being trampled on even more.
"In a while, I will deploy to various borders. Jiraiya, find a way to bring Tsunade back. We need Tsunade's power now."
"Okay."
In Killer Bee's memory, the Fourth Raikage had already inherited the title of Ai before he became the Raikage, so now he is also called Ai, and the Third Raikage is called the Third Raikage.
