The urgency of Kumogakure Village far exceeded Konoha's expectations.
On the seventh day after the Kyuubi Rebellion, at the border of the Land of Fire, a Kumogakure ninja team forced their way into the border to conduct a search on the grounds that one of their team members was missing.
The ninjas stationed at the Konoha border naturally refused, and a small-scale fierce battle took place between the two sides, ending with the complete destruction of the Kumogakure team.
But this was far from over.
Using this excuse, Kumogakure Village deliberately became enraged and used the name of the Land of Lightning to immediately issue a strong condemnation of the Land of Fire and Konoha Village!
And demanded that the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, immediately depart for Kumogakure Village to apologize and compensate. Otherwise, Kumogakure Village would definitely launch revenge!
A clear temptation.
But it was quite conspiratorial and couldn't be solved.
Kumogakure Village always gave people a very strong and reckless feeling. However, in reality, the Raikage of all generations were not brainless, and they were surrounded by a group of very loyal think tanks.
Every action taken by Kumogakure Village might seem radical, but there was a trail to follow. All of it was formulated and implemented after carefully considering the status of the enemy and oneself, as well as the difference between pros and cons.
Now, it didn't matter who was right or wrong.
Kumogakure Village occupied a high moral ground at the cost of several Kumogakure ninjas, and also used the name of the Land of Lightning to exert pressure. Then Konoha would be forced to respond.
Send Minato to Kumogakure Village to apologize. After Kumogakure Village confirmed the status of the Yellow Flash, it could extinguish the fire and stop using the excuse.
If Minato wasn't sent, it would prove the seriousness of the veiled Kyuubi Rebellion, and Konoha's Yellow Flash truly couldn't be sent.
Then Kumogakure Village wouldn't have to worry.
They could even use this name to directly launch a war against Konoha!
There would be no loss whatsoever.

For a while, the problem was naturally thrown to Konoha's side, or more precisely, thrown to Danzo, who temporarily took over as Hokage.
Danzo in Parallel World 4 was afraid of Kumogakure Village, after all, his teacher Tobirama died at the hands of the opponent. Although weakened by various factors, Tobirama was defeated by Ginkaku and Kinkaku.
But the fact was that Tobirama was dead, and Ginkaku and Kinkaku, who killed him, were killed by the Third Raikage.
The Third Raikage was more terrifying than Ginkaku and Kinkaku, and Danzo and the others didn't dare to fight him.
The good thing was that the Third Raikage had been beaten to death by ten thousand ninjas from Iwagakure Village.
Although the new Fourth Raikage was good, he was still too young; he and his younger brother, the Jinchuuriki, were defeated by Minato.
With the support of this information, Danzo's fear of the Fourth Raikage also weakened.
Most importantly, in Danzo's heart, nothing was more important than ascending to the position of Hokage.
Even the fear of Kumogakure Village could be suppressed temporarily!
After all, he rarely went to the battlefield directly at this time, and there was almost no danger, so what did he have to fear?
Not to mention, Danzo had no choice. He couldn't let Minato leave Kushina and carry out a mission to Kumogakure Village.
Even if war could be avoided, when Minato returned, would he, the acting Hokage, have to immediately step down?
Danzo, who had tasted the sweetness of Hokage's power, would never let go of it easily.
So Danzo chose to be firm without hesitation.
He immediately launched a war mobilization and began sending ninja troops to the border area towards the Land of Lightning, and prepared to resist Kumogakure Village's invasion at any time.
As for the war-ending envoy sent by the Land of Fire? Just find two Root ninjas to dress up as wandering ninjas and intercept them on the way.
Compared to Koharu and the others, Danzo didn't respect the daimyo much.
The truth remained the same, if he didn't seize this opportunity, don't rely on military exploits to defeat Kumogakure Village.
Danzo had no hope of becoming Hokage!
He had to be strong and win!
Then what should he do if he lost?
Anyway, there was Hiruzen, so if he lost, just admit defeat and hide behind Hiruzen.
With his relationship with Hiruzen, as long as Danzo admitted his mistake, accepted it, and made Hiruzen feel more comfortable, no mistake would be a problem! This was the real belief that made Danzo always dare to act recklessly!

After making arrangements for Parallel World 4, Lux returned to Parallel World 1.
At this time, it had been three days since Iwagakure Village was destroyed by Madara.
This shocking news spread rapidly throughout the Ninja world, as if it had wings.
The five great nations, including a number of small countries, were all terrified!
Especially the other three great nations, who had been tirelessly preparing for village construction, were trembling with fear.
Except for the ninja clans in the Land of Fire, everyone had only heard of the reputation of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara before, and knew that they were very powerful.
But they didn't expect it to be that terrifying!
One person wiped out the entire Iwagakure Village alone. Was this still a ninja?
And what did Konoha mean?
Only their own clan could build a village, and no other clan could build a village?
Only state officials could light a fire, but the people couldn't light a lamp?
Wasn't that too much?
When the news reached the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, Hashirama and Tobirama, who were on a mission to the Land of Fire, were also confused.
What?
It was only on his side that he persuaded the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to agree to let Madara reserve the position of the Second Hokage.
As a result, he received the horrifying news that Madara entered the Land of Earth alone and destroyed the entire Iwagakure Village.
How else to explain this?
Tobirama was so angry that he jumped to his feet. He wanted to immediately return with a knife and cut Madara to death!
Unfortunately, the incident had already happened.
No matter how much Tobirama jumped, he couldn't change the fact that Iwagakure Village had been destroyed.
What he could do was minimize the impact of this matter and try his best to appease the Daimyo's Palace of the Land of Fire and other countries. Prevent all the countries in the ninja world from uniting and besieging Konoha together.
However, compared to the panic on the Daimyo's side, Hashirama was more surprised after receiving the news.
Besides being a little shocked, he wasn't too angry either.
In his opinion, Madara destroying Iwagakure Village without notifying them beforehand was actually wrong.
But, that was it.
Madara hadn't touched Hashirama's bottom line at all.
And Hashirama now had two advantages:
One was Madara himself.
The other was Tobirama and the other clan members.
Perhaps there would be another village added in the future. However, now, Hashirama's love for Konoha was far less than Madara himself.
Moreover, Madara destroyed Iwagakure Village alone and didn't cause any casualties in Konoha.
Hashirama's tolerance for Madara was almost comparable to Hiruzen's tolerance for Danzo.
'The separation of walls' was what really made Tobirama click his tongue, and made him almost envious!
What else could he do?
He couldn't just ask his brother to defeat Madara, could he? If so, he would most likely be defeated.
Tobirama was also very alert and quickly thought of a way to make amends.
Immediately declare to the outside world:
It was Iwagakure Village that didn't know what was good or bad. When Konoha proposed an alliance, they not only sent envoys to pretend to visit, but also took the opportunity to steal the secrets of the Uchiha Clan's forbidden arts and defile the Naka Shrine of the Uchiha Clan.
For the sake of justice, as well as maintaining peace and stability throughout the ninja world, it was only then that Konoha decided to give Iwagakure a painful lesson!
Konoha hoped that other great powers and ninja villages would take this as a warning and never underestimate the goodwill issued by Konoha Village, and never touch the core of Konoha Village!
At the same time, Tobirama also announced on behalf of Konoha:
From now on. As long as they don't attack Konoha, they will never lead the dispatch of Uchiha Madara!
Tobirama almost gritted his teeth and made this announcement, explaining the reasons and motivations for Konoha's actions and providing guarantees.
Only then did he reluctantly appease the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and representatives from various countries.
In his heart, he had already scolded Madara many times.
