Chapter 452 Imminent Activation
Over time.
The ghostly army of the demons has already crossed the border between the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain.
They will arrive in the Land of Fire soon.
When the Ghost Legion passed through the Land of Rain, Konan specifically went to attack it once.
However, it takes a lot of detonating tags to destroy a stone golem, and the stone golem will be repaired very quickly.
You should know that this ghost legion has tens of thousands of stone golems.
No wonder the demons want to use this to conquer the world.
Seeing that the ghostly army of the demons was about to set foot in the Land of Fire, Iwagakure had already gathered five thousand people, ready to set off at any time.
Meanwhile, the people of Sunagakure also gathered four thousand people and entered the territory of the Land of Rivers.
The Hidden Cloud Village is also gathering troops, but it's too far away. Konoha's spies have mostly been recalled, so the specifics are unclear.
At this time, a high-level meeting was held in Konoha Village to discuss the matter.
A new Hokage Building has been completed on the site of the former Hokage Building.
This was also the first time that Qianyao had used the conference room here to hold a high-level meeting.
Shikaku attended this time as an assistant to Shikaai, who is also the Hokage.
He held a report in his hand and presented it to the elders present:
"Our intelligence agents in the Land of Rivers have fully ascertained that the number of people in the Sunagakure delegation is four thousand, led by Yekura, but it is unclear whether there are any others."
"Iwagakure has also amassed 5,000 men on the border, ready to launch an attack at any moment. The leader of the group is currently unknown."
"As for the Hidden Cloud Village, they are also mobilizing ninjas on a large scale, but the distance is too far, and our intelligence personnel have not yet found any specific information."
"There has been no large-scale personnel relocation in Wuyin."
"The Hokage has already tested the strength of the stone golem."
"The genin and the others could not break through its defenses; only heavy siege equipment could break through the bodies of these stone golems."
When Nara Shikaku said these words, a buzz of discussion immediately arose among the people below.
Aside from the situation in the Hidden Mist Village, almost everything else was bad news.
If Kurama were here, the stone golems would be nothing; the Tailed Beast Ball could simply plow the ground flat, without needing to sacrifice human lives.
These elders were unaware that many of Konoha's powerful figures had been resurrected, and that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was still alive.
Discovering that three ninja villages and a ghost army were all targeting Konoha, they were naturally very worried.
Everyone looked at Qianyao with questioning eyes.
As the Hokage, it's fine if he doesn't care about politics in ordinary times, but this is a war of annihilation.
If he doesn't handle this well, then the Hokage will be severely derelict in his duty.
Qianyao, on the other hand, already had a plan in mind:
"Whether it's Iwagakure, Sunagakure, or Kumogakure, they all want to use the Ghost Army of the Demons to weaken Konoha's strength."
"I have already sent the priestess of the Land of Demons and asked Zenku, the monk from Akatsuki, to set up a large-scale formation, which is enough to stop the advance of the ghost army."
"The strongest fighting force on the Iwagakure side consists of two Jinchūriki."
"Let Fugaku Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha lead two thousand men to defend and stall the battle."
"Ding Zuo will lead three thousand men and follow Maitreya. We will move quickly when the time comes."
“Sunagakure no longer has any Jinchuriki. With me leading a thousand men, we can easily defeat them.”
"Tsunade should lead the medical team to provide support to the army."
"Recall all members of the Hyuga clan. Hyuga Aoto, your Hyuga clan has a heavy mission this time. In addition to providing support on the battlefield..."
"We also need to send small teams into the villages of Sunagakure, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure to check how many follow-up troops they have."
"The other elders maintain the operation of Konoha."
"Lu Jiu ensures the supply of medical supplies, combat supplies, and various logistical supplies."
"Inoichi raised the level of surveillance on Konoha to the highest level."
"Orochimaru is stationed in Konoha to prevent any trouble from arising."
"If I am not in Konoha, Shikaga, Orochimaru, and Tsunade will handle the village's affairs."
Qianyao had basically made various plans in advance. When he brought these elders over, it was to issue orders, not to discuss things with them.
After all, these elders weren't good at fighting.
But we need to tell them who our enemies are and how to fight them.
To reassure them and get them to cooperate with Qianyao's work arrangements.
……
While Konoha was actively mobilizing its personnel, many spies also wanted to enter the village to gather intelligence.
However, with the new type of barrier, spies simply cannot infiltrate it.
The outside world has no idea about Konoha's troop deployment.
The Akatsuki, on the other hand, brought Sasori, Deidara, and Konan to the Hidden Cloud Village as a precaution.
Although Kirigakure did not mobilize any large-scale ninjas, Yagura Karatachi and his Mirror clone were on their way to the battlefield on the Ghost Army's side.
……
The border of the Land of Fire.
This is the place where the Land of Fire, the Land of Rain, and the Land of Grass meet.
This is an endless Gobi Desert, the ground is full of pebbles and gravel, there are no trees of any size, it is a desolate place.
It is precisely because there is nothing here that it is a border.
Zenku and the priestess Miroku were already setting up an array with masks from the Namendou sect of the Land of Whirlpools.
In reality, these stone golems are practically sitting ducks; if there were a Jinchuriki present, they could be bombarded at will.
But the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha is no longer here... just kidding.
The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, existed, but only for the purpose of maximizing profits.
Chiyo did not intend to expose Minato until more people from other ninja villages entered the Land of Fire.
Therefore, Zenkong and Maitreya were not under too much pressure; it was just that there were too many stone golems from the demons, and the array they had to set up was too large.
Even with the masks of the Namen Hall as the barrier array flags, they still need to act as the central hub within the barrier to consume the stone golems.
On the northwestern battlefield, ostensibly Zenku and Miroku are actually two people, but in reality, Yagura and Kagami's clone are also Chiyo's people.
On the western battlefield of Sunagakure, Senyo also brought Kato Dan, with Kurama Yakumo as support and Hatake Sakumo as a backup.
On the surface, the northern battlefield was occupied by Fugaku Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha, but in reality, Fugaku also brought Shisui and Mayumi with him.
Qianyao has a very high tolerance for error.
With Orochimaru in Konoha, Chiyo wasn't worried at all.
It won't be easy to break through Konan's defenses on the east side, which is close to Kumogakure.
……
At this time, Onoki was not in Iwagakure, but with the troops at the front.
Because of the fact that Rōshi, one of the two jinchūriki leading the team, was very arrogant, only Ōnoki could keep him in check.
At this moment, Onoki was holding a document in his hand, which was sent back by Deidara.
This document contains detailed records of the members of the Akatsuki organization.
Onoki noticed that there was a rogue ninja from Kirigakure named Kisame Hoshigaki in the Akatsuki organization.
He guessed that this was the person who provided the information to Yagura.
"Lord Tsuchikage, your personal messenger bird has returned. Here is the message."
Upon hearing the report from the Anbu, Onoki was visibly shaken!
coming!
He pulled the scroll over, unrolled it, and glanced at it. Sure enough, it belonged to the Mizukage, Yagura.
The letter stated Zenku's current location; he was already on his way there and asked the people of Iwagakure to come and meet him.
"Old Zi, I'm leaving this to you."
Old Purple glanced at Ōnoki, seemingly unconcerned: "I know."
"Yellow earth, red earth, come with me."
"Yes!"
