In just one second, remember that in the late autumn of the 52nd year of Konoha, the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Hot Water was filled with killing intent.
Before this, although there was various small-scale friction between Konoha and the Cloud Ninjas here, the overall situation was still stable.
However, when the peace talks broke and the reinforcements led by Minato arrived, the intensity of the entire battlefield quickly increased.
Soon, under the surprise attack of the "Golden Flash" Minato, the Cloud Ninjas suffered heavy losses.
If not for the 4th Raikage speeding up and leading the army to support them, the defence line of the Cloud Ninjas would have been directly broken.
"Minato!"
In the main tent of the Cloud Ninjas, this was the second time that the 4th Raikage had been attacked and destroyed by this person. He was so angry that he wanted to smash the table.
But before that, he had already smashed one, and now he had no time to change the new one.
He could only raise it up and down in the air, but in the end, he pulled it back with a face full of dissatisfaction.
On the side, Dodai, who is Raikage's most trusted minister, suggested after careful consideration: "Master Raikage, it is better to take back all the cloud ninja troops distributed in the surrounding strongholds. Otherwise, if this continues, it will only be waved." People with strong mobility, like Minato, will be defeated one by one. In addition, the Konoha army has now assembled. To continue to maintain our numerical advantage on the frontal battlefield, Yunin also needs to concentrate its strength."
The 4th Raikage thought about it and could only nod his head unwillingly.
He had a deep impression of Minato.
Back then, when he hadn't become Raikage, he had fought against his brother.
However, the result was not very good.
The speed that he was most proud of is at a disadvantage in front of Minato, and even Killer Bee almost loses his life.
This made the fourth-generation Raikage feel deeply ashamed, so much so that he would strive to become stronger and constantly improve himself in the future.
Now that his strength was much stronger than several years ago, he really wanted to find a chance to hold this grudge.
However, although the two sides were now facing each other, as the commander of the Cloud Ninjas, he could not abandon the army and search for the other side to fight.
As for sending others to chase after him.
Honestly, the 4th Raikage really couldn't think of any Cloud Ninja who could catch Minato, who had the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Konoha's main force was also eyeing them from the front, so sending a large team to encircle them was unrealistic.
Therefore, in the face of the latter's "Hatake Sakumo" sneak attack, A could only shrink his strength like the Sand Village of the past.
Although this would lose a lot of territories.
Fortunately, in this way, the power of the Cloud Ninjas could be concentrated on one punch.
Compared to Konoha, the number of Ninjas was much more, and their advantage in a frontal battle would also be greater.
"I heard that the 4th Hokage is coming to the front, so we will give him a big gift! It is time to remove the reputation of Konoha's First Village!" The eyes of the 4th Raikage were full of ambition.
The eyes of the officials of the Cloud Ninjas in the tent were also full of passion.
In the three battles that had not yet completely ended, although the four villages of the five countries had won in the end, their own losses were undoubtedly the greatest.
As for the Cloud Ninjas, although the 3rd Raikage died, the losses of the Ninjas were the least of the five countries.
This was also the reason why they dared to fight against Konoha again.
Just like now, Konoha had suffered many losses, and with the unfavourable terrain of the Four War Land, even if the other three countries could not invade, they still needed to stay behind to guard against the impact.
Even if they started a war against the Cloud Ninjas, the number of Ninjas gathered at the border could only be around six thousand.
However, the Cloud Ninjas already had ten thousand people!
So what if it was Wood Style?
Could it make up for such a huge gap?
After all, even the so-called gods of the Ninja Realm had died, right?
Having not experienced the era of Hashirama Senju, at the same time, they were more confident that the village was much stronger than in the former era, so they were full of confidence in the next battle.
"Since that's the case, then let's go all out!"
Ei, The 4th Raikage, stood up and confidently declared.
Not only could Konoha not afford to delay, but even the weaker Thunder and Cloud Ninjas could not.
In this way, both sides of the battle undoubtedly had the same thought.
...
When Yuki arrived with the last reinforcements, the war between Konoha and the Cloud Ninjas was undoubtedly the final countdown.
"Well done, Minato!"
In the main tent of Konoha's garrison, after Yuki praised Minato, he looked at everyone in the tent.
Ei stood up and announced with confidence. Uchiha, Hinata, Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Inuzuka, Aburame, Sarutobi, Kurama and other Konoha wealthy ninja elites gathered together here, plus a large number of non-ninja-born elite Jonin.
It could be said that Konoha's top forces were gathered here.
Among them, in addition to Yuki himself, Minato, Shisui, and the Kyubi Jinchuriki rarely left the village.
With such a combination, even if Yuki didn't make a move, he could still beat the strongest of the Cloud Ninjas.
As for the difference of 4,000 Ninjas.
Wasn't there him?
There were cases of Madara and the army of ten thousand Ninjas dancing.
Yuki, who had also come to this level of strength, also wanted to dance.
With so many people, Yuki really did not feel that there was any possibility of his side losing.
Otherwise, he would not be stupid enough to start this battle.
"Everyone, the war is about to start. Everyone, prepare for the final battle. With me and everyone here, Konoha will win!"
"Konoha will win!"
Everyone in the tent shouted in unison, their eyes burning with passion.
The Konoha Ninjas had long been used to the many battles they faced in the past years.
In addition, compared to the Cloud Ninjas, they grew up listening to the Legend of Wood Style and believed in the strength of the 4th Hokage, who had inherited the name of Wood Style.
Therefore, they were also confident in the upcoming war.
Just like that, assuming both sides were confident, a large-scale frontal war was about to begin.
But before that, an unexpected visitor came, which surprised Yuki.
"Tsunade, why are you here?"
One of the three Konoha Ninjas, Tsunade, came from the same clan as Yuki.
"With such a big thing happening in Konoha, and I'm nearby, how could I not come?" Tsunade said to Yuki.
Originally, she was resting nearby, but who would have thought that she would suddenly hear the news of the war between Konoha and the Cloud Ninjas?
As a member of Konoha, plus now that she was the Hokage, she was not as distant from Konoha as before, so she naturally came to help.
"You were fine before. Why did you suddenly attack the Cloud Ninjas?" Tsunade asked again.
She wasn't in Konoha, so she wasn't clear about the matter of the Cloud Ninjas Group. After Yuki told her about it, the hot-tempered her naturally agreed, "The old man from the 3rd generation was too gentle, and ay cat-and-dog would dare to kick his nose. Now that you're a Hokage, it's too much for you to vent your anger! It's time for Konoha to be tough. Don't worry. I'll help you this time. I'll definitely beat the Cloud Ninjas!"
"It's good that you're here." Yuki smiled.
Tsunade was a Hokage's shadow-level powerhouse and also a healer master. Being able to join this war was really good for Konoha.
However, with a new top force joining, Yuki still needed to modify the layout of Konoha's side.
The following time, he and Tsunade discussed this problem in the account.
The two of them didn't look at each other at all.
After all, they have often met in the Shikkotsu Forest in the past few years. Although the name is to discuss the increasingly difficult wood escape experiment, they often discuss other things in reality.
Because of this, the relationship between the two of them rose as time passed.
Especially after experiencing the hangover of the night of the nine tails, the two sides had a hazy mood.
Yuki naturally knew what this was, but he still needed to wait patiently for a hundred and fifty kilometres.
Just like now, Tsunade said that she came for Konoha, but only she knew the composition of Yuki.
In the tent, after discussing, Tsunade raised her beautiful pale yellow eyebrows and asked curiously, "Where is Jiraya? Even I came to help him, and he should have taken action."
Yuki's eyes flashed, and he replied, "It happened so suddenly that Jiraya was in the western part of the continent. I'm afraid it would be too late to call him over."
In fact, he didn't consider Konoha's Sannin from the very beginning.
After all, these two people appeared and disappeared like ghosts, and the strength he had prepared was enough.
Moreover, after he defeated the Cloud Ninjas, it would be best for people like Jiraya not to leave the Land of Fire.
This time, he did not expect Tsunade to take the initiative.
Fortunately, with his relationship with the other party, he could at least maintain neutrality in the future problems of the Land of Fire.
This way, it would not affect anything.
Thus.
If the Cloud Ninjas did not know about it, Konoha had a new powerful force.
Yuki did not waste any more time and continued to delay.
Tomorrow!
It was the launch of a total attack!
...
In Konoha's camp, the general mobilization of the war had begun.
The Konoha Ninjas who were able to come here all had rich combat experience.
For example, the previous matter of directly pulling the graduating students to the front line as cannon fodder, after the most difficult period of Konoha, there was no need to do this. As the 4th Hokage, Yuki would not do such a thing.
Because of this, the Konoha Ninjas were not flustered at all and were doing their final preparations in their own ways.
Like the last calm before the storm and the sound of weapons rubbing against each other, the entire camp was filled with solemn killing intent.
The Cloud Ninjas who were scouting nearby were also keenly aware of this.
They are all veterans who have emerged from the three battles in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The senior executives of Yunnin, headed by Ei, the fourth generation of Raikage, naturally guessed Konoha's idea.
Therefore, they also did not back down and began to prepare.
The war was about to start.
