The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 260 Annihilating the War

Master Chankong was holding a nine-ringed staff, so when he moved, the nine rings would make a clanging sound unless he deliberately controlled them.

He deliberately separated from Xiao Nan to see if anyone from the battlefield came looking for him.

Or rather, will Obito come back to cause him trouble?

Because it was a sting operation, he walked very slowly.

Given his solitary journey in this desolate wilderness, as long as there are intelligence agents nearby, it's impossible for him not to be found.

However, instead of Zenkuo Obito, Kakashi and his two companions arrived.

"Master, please wait."

When the three caught up, Asuma immediately went up to them and started a conversation.

Zen Kong turned around and looked at the three people: "What brings you here, benefactors?"

Asuma has a friend named Jiraiya who is the abbot of the Fire Temple, so he has a certain fondness for monks.

Most people in the ninja world don't live very long, and such enlightened monks are even rarer.

If Kakashi and Tenzo came to see Zenku simply to complete their mission, Asuma's visit was driven by a greater sense of respect.

Asuma first bowed respectfully to Zenkō, and then spoke:

"My close friend is none other than Jiriku, the abbot of the Fire Temple. Do you know him, Zenku?"

In the Land of Fire, the Fire Temple is a very famous temple; in theory, every monk should know about it.

Zen Master Kong chanted the Buddha's name: "This humble monk comes from the far east and is not familiar with this place."

Asma was somewhat embarrassed, but he quickly recovered.

"I wonder why Master Chankong is working for the Akatsuki?"

Zenkong clasped his hands together and said, "It is all for the purpose of eliminating war."

His answer surprised Asma and the other two.

Asuma couldn't help but ask, "Master, don't you know that Akatsuki is a mercenary organization?"

"The people they recruit are all bad people, and Scorpion even destroyed a small country."

Zen Kong's eyes remained unchanged, as if he had known these things all along:

Everything in the world is preordained and governed by fate.

"Life and death are a matter of reincarnation."

Asuma was puzzled: "If that's the case, why did the master come here?"

Zen Kong tapped the ground with his staff, and a pit quickly appeared in the ground.

"This is the world."

Asma seemed to understand but not quite.

But Zenkong did not explain the meaning, but continued: "Everything in the world operates according to certain rules."

"but……"

Zenkong tapped a nearby stone with his staff, and the stone moved directly into the pit, filling it about halfway.

"It will affect the way everything in this world works."

Asuma seemed to understand: "This is a Tailed Beast?"

Zen Kong nodded slightly: "This humble monk can only quell the conflict concerning the tailed beasts."

Asuma quickly replied, "I wonder if the master would be willing to visit our Konoha Village?"

Zen Kong declined, saying, "You need to discuss this matter with Xiao Nan."

Asuma asked in confusion, "Aren't the Master and the Akatsuki in a cooperative relationship?"

Zenku's gaze seemed to pierce through Asma's heart:

"The Akatsuki organization has provided me with a lot of convenience since I came here."

Asma and the others understood. As they exchanged glances, Zenku bowed to the three of them.

"This humble monk has other important matters to attend to. I hope we can meet again someday."

Asma and the other two quickly bowed and said, "Master, please take care. We hope to meet again someday."

Zen Kong, holding his staff, walked away step by step.

Asuma and the others were also a little puzzled. Wasn't it an important matter? Why were they walking so slowly?

"Shall we go back first?" Tianzang asked from the side.

"Okay, let's go back first and see what the old man has to say," Asma replied.

Kakashi glanced at Asuma, then at the departing Zenkyu, and made a decision in his mind.

……

The battle between Sunagakure and Iwagakure had already attracted the attention of the entire ninja world.

Everyone is watching to see if the fighting will escalate.

But things changed quite quickly afterwards.

Sunagakure first gained an advantage by inviting the Akatsuki organization.

After Iwagakure deployed its Jinchūriki, everyone felt that Sunagakure was going to suffer a loss.

Surprisingly, none of the Sand Village members participated, while Sasori of the Akatsuki had a puppet of the Third Kazekage.

The Iwagakure Jinchuriki did not gain any advantage in their first battle.

However, the appearance of the Third Kazekage's puppet took on a somewhat dark comedic tone.

The person Sunagakure invited turned out to be the very person who killed their Third Kazekage.

Under the current circumstances, Sunagakure cannot take action against Akatsuki.

After all, they are allies now.

But these were just appetizers. It was Zenku, the monk from the Akatsuki organization, who finally appeared, that made all the intelligence agents widen their eyes.

An unfamiliar master of sealing techniques.

A person who can seal a Jinchūriki with a single blow.

The last person to do something like this was Uchiha Chiyo, and now another one has done it.

With the intervention of Zenku from the Akatsuki organization, the conflict between Sunagakure and Iwagakure was resolved so simply.

This has also made many influential people interested in Zen emptiness.

The Akatsuki organization also released a related statement.

The gist of it is that Zenku is a member of their Akatsuki organization.

If needed (regarding Jinchuriki or Tailed Beasts), you can contact them.

When all sorts of information about Master Chankong were flying around in the black market.

As a White Zetsu who was watching the battle from nearby, he had already sold all the detailed battle information to the black market.

In just a few days, all five great ninja villages knew about Zenku.

……

Hidden Cloud Village.

Raikage's office.

Ever since the Raikage had his arm broken, the people of Kumogakure have been trying to find a way to repair it.

At this time, the Raikage was wearing a silver mechanical arm on his right arm.

This robotic arm is incredibly precise, from the shoulder to the forearm and finally to the hand.

This arm is perfectly capable of handling everyday matters as well.

However, he has one major weakness: he cannot fight.

Given the Raikage's fighting prowess, this thing would basically break with a single tap.

Although the Raikage has not given up on himself over the years, he is indeed somewhat frustrated by the decline in his strength caused by the loss of his right arm.

Raikage placed the documents on the table and tapped them a few times with his right hand, which was made of metal.

"Tell me about the impact that Zenku, the Akatsuki monk who appeared this time, has on the ninja world."

After carefully reviewing the information, Tu Tai's eyes showed a hint of amazement.

He organized his thoughts and began to speak:

"If Zenku is strong enough, it will be more beneficial than harmful to our Land of Lightning."

"The only reason Kirigakure is holding us back is because of Yagura Karatachi and his clones."

"Without a Jinchūriki, our strength would completely overwhelm Kirigakure."

This is a very simple principle, and the Raikage basically understands it immediately.

"Um……"

Seeing that the Raikage was deep in thought, Tsuchikage added:

“We need more intelligence support, especially regarding Master Chankong.”

"As long as we confirm that Master Chankong is strong enough, it will be our chance in Yunyin."

Lei Ying stood up and walked to the windowsill. In the distance, muffled thunder rumbled from Yunlei Gorge.

That wasn't thunder; Killer Bee was training himself.

Killer Bee has changed a lot since the Raikage had his arm broken.

The Raikage didn't even need to lift a finger; he already knew to go train.

"You take charge of the intelligence gathering; I'll go check on Bi."
