40 Sarutobi Gorbachev Hiruzen (Ch 40)

The Land of Thunder.
Compared to Konoha, the Hidden Cloud Village is located at a higher altitude. Since the high altitude and low temperature are not conducive to the growth of crops, the people of the Land of Lightning mainly eat meat. This may be the reason why most of their people are big and strong.
In the office of the Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village.
Mabui, the Raikage’s secretary, had already learned of Konoha’s response through the ninja hawk that flew back from the platform.
“Lord Raikage, Konoha has expressed its willingness to replace Hinata with Hanabi, the second daughter of Hiashi, but you need to go to Konoha in person to sign a truce and alliance agreement between the two countries in public.”
After reading the letter, Mabui reported to the Fourth Raikage.
Although he is only 17 years old this year, Darui, who has already served as the Raikage’s bodyguard, has inherited the black lightning style and bloodline limit storm style from the Third Raikage. He scratched his head and complained: “You really agreed? Although I have heard about the Third Hokage’s personality, I really didn’t expect him to be so… um…”
Darui hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not utter a single curse word.
Now the attitude of Kumogakure towards Sarutobi Hiruzen is the same as the attitude of the Americans towards Gorbachev.
Although they are enemies on the surface, they can’t wait to worship each other in their hearts.
How can there be such a cute enemy! ?
“But Lord Raikage, we must not behave like this again, otherwise other people in the ninja world will say that we, the Kumogakure, have no credibility.”
Ma Buyi reminded.
Originally, after Konoha handed over Hyuga Hizashi five years ago, the Land of Fire and the Land of Lightning had signed a truce agreement.
This time, Yunyin’s behavior can be said to be unreasonable.
Sarutobi Hiruzen obviously wanted to avoid this, so he asked Ai to come in person and announce in front of all Konoha that Konoha and Kumogakure were allies.
If the Hidden Cloud Village commits such a backstabbing act again in the future, he, the Fourth Raikage, will have no chance of surviving in the ninja world.
“I know that as long as the ability of the Byakugan is too difficult for us in Kumogakure, I have to get it even if I have to bear the criticism.”
The Fourth Raikage also knew that what he did was not fair.
But in some ways, the Byakugan is indeed the nemesis of Kumogakure.
Because the Land of Lightning is mostly mountainous, and during wartime, the Cloud Ninjas often rely on the terrain for cover.
But under the gaze of the white eyes, these covers are useless.
That’s why Ai is so persistent in rolling his eyes.
Ai picked up the Raikage hat with the word “Thunder” written on it and put it on. He strode out of the office and shouted, “When I’m not here, Mabui, you will take over the position of Raikage, and Darui and Xi will be my guards. Oh, and keep an eye on that idiot when I’m not here!”
“yes.”
Mabui responded, not realizing that the Fourth Raikage’s actions were dangerous.
After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen is such a coward, how powerful can the ninjas under his command be?
…
…
Two days later.
With the same combination as during the Five Kage Conference nine years later, the Fourth Raikage, Darui, and Nozomi entered the small country of Hot Spring, which was sandwiched between the two big countries of Fire and Lightning.
In the ninja world, the ones that suffer the most are the small countries that try to survive in danger among the big countries.
But compared to the Rain Kingdom, which is sandwiched between three big countries, the Soup Kingdom is not the worst.
After arriving at a plain-looking town, Xi suggested: “Lord Raikage, let’s find a hotel to stay tonight and then enter the Land of Fire tomorrow.”
“Well, I’m a little hungry too.”
Ai nodded and entered the hotel with the two of them.
After the three of them sat down one after another, Xi patted the table and shouted, “Boss, order some food.”
A young waiter with long hair covering his eyes walked over quickly and said with a smile: “Oh, you three guests are so lucky. As the 100th customer since the opening of our restaurant, we will give you a free deluxe meal.”
Darui, who always looked sleepy, became interested and asked, “Ah? What’s the set meal?”
The waiter couldn’t help but raise his lips, and said word by word: “That’s… the death meal that leads to the underworld!”
The right hand that was originally hidden under the menu suddenly took out a kunai and stabbed it at Darui’s right eye that was not covered by his bangs as fast as lightning.
A flash of shock just crossed Darui’s right eye.
Bang!
Amid the sound of metal clashing.
A large hand covered with blue lightning protected Darui’s face. The kunai that was stabbing at him was cut in half by the electric current before it touched the back of the hand.
“Is this the legendary Lightning Release Armor that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Raikage? Damn it!”
The “waiter” frowned and cursed.
Ai Meng, who was sitting next to Darui, stood up suddenly and smashed forward with his other hand with tremendous force.
Boom!!!
In an instant, the entire hotel erupted with a shock wave that was more than ten meters high, and dust flew everywhere, blowing away the nearby villagers.
Whoosh—whoosh—
A breeze blew by, and in the messy ruins of the inn, Darui and Xi stood up and took a fighting stance.
Looking forward, he saw a large sword pressed against the fist of his own Raikage, protecting the waiter behind it.
Bang!
The white mist dissipated, and the waiter’s transformation technique came into contact.
Those eyes…Sharingan!
“Fei, I’m very sorry, Patriarch, the operation failed.”
Uchiha Tiehuo looked ashamed.
“I didn’t think this method could kill them.”
Uchiha Luan, who was sitting on a chair, crossed his legs and holding a sword, spoke calmly.
“Clan leader? Is he the new clan leader who is rumored to take over from Uchiha Fugaku?”
Darui and others were shocked. Are you kidding me?
He actually blocked the fist of the Raikage-sama with a sword!?
whoosh!
At this moment, another swift figure rushed to the side of the three Raikages and quickly formed seals with his hands, which was the Uchiha clan’s most skilled move.
“Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!”
“Get out of here! You’re hiding your head but showing your tail!”
Ai didn’t even turn his head, but punched the fireball with his backhand, shattering it into countless flames.
Uchiha Inahiro, who had made the move, quickly retreated to create some distance, and couldn’t help but complain: “Who is the guard?”
“Are the Uchiha actually ambushing us here? Is this an order from Sarutobi Hiruzen?”
Ai questioned with narrowed eyes.
In his previous life, many readers thought that he had a bad temper, but that was actually because he mistakenly thought that Killer Bee was dead, so he was so impatient. How could the head of a village who could think of stealing people while Konoha and Kumogakure signed a truce agreement be so brainless?
“Do you think he has the guts?”
Uchiha Luan asked back.
“…Indeed.”
After a brief thought, Ai nodded.
At this moment, people from two different villages reached a consensus.
“Iron Fire, Dao Fire, I leave those two guards to you. It doesn’t matter if you can’t win, but you can’t let them escape. Can you do that?”
Uchiha Luan leisurely put away his Mangekyō and Susanoo, then slowly stood up and walked over.
“Chief! I will take off their heads and show them to you!”
“It was just an accident. I can deal with this delicate little devil in no time!”
The two Uchiha hawks immediately issued a military order.
This is my first time going on a mission with the new clan leader, I must perform well!
