Chapter 90: Chapter 90:- Deploying Tailed Beast-Level Combat Power
[ð Shoutout to YHRB, Gabriel, Tiago and VS for joining patreon. Thank you very muchð€. You all made my day ð¥³]
He really couldn't imagine why the other party would make such a foolish move, and at the same time, it was a pity that the delivered dish couldn't be eaten.
He felt really suffocated.
'I'm afraid there will be very few such opportunities in the future.'
The family ninjas sent out this time are definitely the most important combat power of the family, as long as they are eliminated.
It will definitely be a devastating blow to these two clans.
Such an opportunity is really too rare.
Eliminating the elites of the two clans is enough to make Konoha unable to obtain the support of these two clans for the next ten years.
Naturally, this can lay the groundwork for annexing Konoha's land in the future.
In terms of rich resources and fertile land, that belongs to Konoha Village, the Land of Fire. Compared to that, Kumogakure is much worse, after all, it is all plateau terrain.
The more he thought about it, the more suffocated he felt. The meat delivered to his doorstepâif he didn't eat it, would he still be the Fourth Raikage?
He couldn't help but look at Mabui beside him.
"If we deploy Tailed Beast-level combat power, can we wipe out these two clans and achieve a great weakening of Konoha's ninja combat strength? Afterward, even if we renegotiate peace with them, we can gain greater benefits."
The generous offer of 100 million ryo was indeed a lot, but he didn't take it seriously at all.
His proposal made sense. Ever since the Second Ninja War, when Kumogakure obtained superior sealing techniques from Uzushiogakure, they had been able to make Jinchūriki perfectly utilize the power sealed within the Tailed Beasts.
For example, the Two-Tails Jinchūriki, Nii Yugito, could fully transform into a Tailed Beast and was a perfect Jinchūriki.
Even his partner in the AB Combo, Killer Bee, could also achieve full Eight-Tails transformation.
If they deployed two Tailed Beast-level weapons, perhaps they could really annihilate these two clans.
At the very least, it would be a heavy blow. If they could achieve this level, it would be a huge weakening of Konoha's combat strength.
Mabui's expression became even more shocked. 'The Fourth Raikage actually wanted to deploy two Tailed Beast JinchÅ«rikiâthat was true top-tier strength, not much weaker than Raikage-sama himself.'
If that was the case, plus the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure, they would have three Kage-level powerhouses on their side.
Meanwhile, in Konoha, at most, the two clan leaders had Kage-level combat power.
Generally speaking, if one village deployed Tailed Beast-level combat power, the opposing village would do the same.
'But Konoha's current Jinchūriki had not yet grown up, right?'
This kind of thing was easy to investigateâit was still just a child of a few years old.
Thinking about it this way, it really seemed feasible.
"Raikage-sama, I think this plan is feasible. Even if we can't eliminate these two great clans, we can at least severely damage them. By then, we will have greater leverage in the peace negotiations, and it definitely won't just be about 100 million ryo anymore."
"It's just that if Kumogakure goes all out, what if Iwagakure launches an attack?"
Kumogakure was their arch-enemy and the best at sneak attacks.
The Fourth Raikage, however, smiled and said, "There's nothing to worry about. We'll leave a large number of ordinary ninjas in the village, and that will be enough to hold Kumogakure."
"Since we're deploying Tailed Beasts, we don't need too many ordinary ninja forces. Tailed Beast-level combat power has incredibly destructive potentialâit's practically a map-wide attack."
"If we're not careful, we might even injure our own people, making it difficult to maneuver and fully unleash their true power."
"So this time, we only need to bring the elites."
"Besides, don't you have your Heavenly Transfer Jutsu? If necessary, if those bastards from Iwagakure really attack, then we can just call off the battle and retreatâyou can teleport me and the JinchÅ«riki back, and that will be enough to stabilize the situation."
"Furthermore, this operation must be kept secret. If we quickly take down these two clans, then there won't be any danger at all."
Hearing this plan, Mabui thought that while it had some minor flaws, it was still quite complete.
"Fourth Raikage-sama is wise."
The Fourth Raikage was in an excellent mood.
If this plan succeeded, then the Land of Lightning's Kumogakure would become the strongest of the Five Great Ninja Villages.
"You go and gather all the elite ninjas of the village, including the Two-Tails Jinchūriki and my partner, the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki, Killer Bee."
Hearing this, Mabui immediately ordered people to gather the elite Jonin and elite Chunin of the village, naturally including the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchūriki.
Before long, inside the vast conference room, most of Kumogakure's elite-level figures had gathered, including Darui and C, two young Jonin whom Raikage-sama had high hopes for.
The Fourth Raikage saw that everyone had assembled, but one person was missingâSamui.
He looked at Mabui and asked, "Mabui, why isn't your sister Samui here?"
He had heard that Samui had never been able to move past her trauma. This time was a great opportunity for her to pull herself together.
Mabui, naturally aware of the situation, said helplessly, "My sister still doesn't want to go to that place again."
She had actually tried to persuade her sister, but no matter what, Samui refused to go back there.
For her sister, that was truly a nightmare-like place.
Hearing this, the Fourth Raikage had nothing more to say. He hadn't expected Samui to be so mentally fragile.
'Forget it.'
Then, he looked at everyone and said, "The reason I've gathered you all here is that I have decided to go to war with Konoha once again."
"According to reliable information, this time, the opposing force will be the joint army of Konoha's Uchiha and Hyuga clans. The advantage is ours because this time, we plan to deploy two major Tailed Beast Jinchūriki, and I will personally take the battlefield as well."
The ninjas who originally didn't know why they had been summoned were all excited.
This time, even the Fourth Raikage himself, along with two major Tailed Beast weapons, were being deployedâvictory was practically assured for Kumogakure.
Nii Yugito, however, asked in confusion, "Fourth Raikage, is the source of this information reliable? How could Konoha possibly send just two clans for such a large-scale battle? Are they looking down on Kumogakure?"
The Uchiha clan was indeed strong, but they were no longer as powerful as they were at their peak.
At its peak, the Uchiha clan could indeed fight an entire village alone.
The Hyuga clan was more known for their Byakugan's reconnaissance abilities. Individually, their strength was decent, but that was about it.
But now, the combat power of Kumogakure was too overwhelming. The ones gathered here were all elite ninjas.
And there were also two Tailed Beastsâjust the Tailed Beast power alone was enough to give these two clans a hard time, let alone the additional strong ninja forces.
If the enemy had reinforcements from the rest of Konoha, at best, it would only give Kumogakure a slight advantage.
Hearing Nii Yugito's question, the Fourth Raikage burst into laughter.
"Maybe they're busy fighting amongst themselves."
Even though they didn't know who sent the letter, it was easy to guess who was stirring up trouble.
Besides Konoha's dark shadow, Danzo, who else could it be?
As soon as the Fourth Raikage finished speaking, the ninjas present all laughed.
At such a critical moment, Konoha was still engaging in internal strifeâno wonder it was growing weaker.
This time, there was no way Kumogakure could fail.
After this battle, Kumogakure would definitely replace Konoha and become the number one ninja village.
And the Land of Lightning could also become the world's number one nation.
The atmosphere instantly became joyous, and after a long while, the laughter finally died down.
