After watching them disappear, Bitz took off again, called to Liang Bing, and quickly flew towards Kumogakure.

Ever since Yugito brought Omoi and the other two back to Kumogakure, Kumogakure has been preparing for war.

With the gathering of a large number of ninjas, various supplies were mobilized.

Some spies planted within the Hidden Cloud Village gradually realized that something was wrong.

They all secretly relayed Yunyin's movements back to their respective villages.

Even though other ninja villages received the news late at night, the first batch of 1500 ninja soldiers who had been injected with the drug had already assembled and set off under the leadership of Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

They expect to arrive after the vanguard force of 500 men takes down the outposts on the Konoha border.

Once the two forces unite, this 2000-strong ninja army will definitely give Konoha, which has just suffered heavy losses, a pleasant surprise. 860...

"Lord Raikage."

"Lord Raikage, welcome back."

"Greetings, Lord Raikage."

Inside the Raikage Building, upon seeing the returning Beethoven and his companion, the ninjas and staff entering and exiting immediately stopped and respectfully greeted them.

Even if Beetz only nods in response occasionally, it can excite these people to no end.

Pushing open the door to Raikage's office, Bitz slowly walked to his desk and sat down, while Liang Bing followed him and plopped down on his desk.

Upon seeing the two, Yukito, Azabui, and Samui, the three women who were issuing decrees on his behalf in the office, immediately stood up from the sofa, bowed, and greeted them:

"Lord Raikage, Lady Liangbing." *3 Bitts rested his elbows on the table, nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then asked:

"How are the arrangements going? How many ninjas haven't received their injections yet?"

I humbly beg all my esteemed readers to give me more flowers and monthly tickets, and I desperately request that you urge me to update more frequently and provide rewards. I would be eternally grateful.

The three women looked at each other, and finally, it was the woman in hemp clothing who stepped forward to report:

"Currently, there are 11542 ninjas in active service in Kumogakure."

Jonin and Chunin were given priority for injection, and the injections have now been largely completed.

The genin only started receiving injections yesterday, and it will take at least two more days to complete the full course.

"Among the genin, those with sufficient strength will be directly promoted to chunin under special wartime circumstances and given priority for injection."

The rest of the lower-ranking soldiers weren't in a hurry; they'd only be cannon fodder in the war anyway.

Liang Bing crossed her arms and spoke calmly:

"Although he is only a genin, after being injected with my medicine, his chakra level will at least be at the level of an ordinary chunin from another village."

After they've finished injecting the medicine, let them follow the vanguard and take the opportunity to conquer the smaller countries of the Moon Kingdom, the Hot Spring Kingdom, and the Iron Kingdom on the other side.

Bitz nodded in agreement, then added:

"When the news of Konoha being damaged by the One-Tailed and Nine-Tailed reached the Land of Earth, that old man Onoki would definitely not be able to resist taking the opportunity to kick Konoha when it was down."

"Then we might be able to cause trouble for the Land of Earth."

Upon hearing this, Yugito immediately volunteered, "My lord, Onoki will never stand idly by and watch us annex small countries like the Land of Iron."

In order to prevent him from sending troops to intervene, please allow me to lead troops into the Land of Waterfall, which is close to the Land of Earth, to build a defensive line.

Samui also wanted to make a bigger impact on Bitz, so he chimed in:

"Once news of our attacks on other small countries gets out, the Land of Waterfall will definitely be on guard against us."

This is the only country besides the Five Great Nations that has a tailed beast.

It would be bad if it aligned itself with the Land of Earth; it would be better to strike first and take over the Land of Waterfall directly.

Good, good, good. As expected of someone from the Land of Lightning, even the usually cautious and calm Samui is a hot-tempered little sister.

They'd target Takigakure, the most powerful of the five great nations, at the slightest provocation.

However, the strength of Kumogakure has increased several times over. Even if they fight against Konoha, Iwagakure, and Takigakure at the same time, Beethoven is not worried at all.

He looked at Yukito and asked:

"Are you sure?"

Yugito smiled confidently, his eyes blinking to reveal blood-red pupils composed of five boomerangs, and said with unwavering certainty:

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

"It's a kaleidoscope. No wonder you're so confident."

Upon meeting her eyes, Beetz immediately recognized them and called out their names.

Liang Bing also became interested and jumped off the desk. She took a few steps to Yukito and held her face close to observe her carefully.

"Wow, you've awakened already? That's faster than I expected. Looks like you're quite talented."

"No, please don't do this, Lady Liangbing."

Faced with Liang Bing's alluring face, so close yet so flushed, Yu Muren shyly tried to look away.

But Liang Bing was mainly observing her eyes, so she immediately followed her gaze and moved her face closer.

Soon, Yugito gave up, his face turning red.

"Tell me, what ability have these eyes awakened?"

Despite some physical discomfort, Yukito carefully reported:

"The left eye summons a black flame that will not disappear until the target is burned to ashes."

The right eye possesses a powerful illusion technique capable of drawing the target into a permanent illusionary world.

Amaterasu and an enhanced version of Tsukuyomi? That makes sense, since they are gene samples extracted from Sasuke.

Bitz muttered to himself, then, without further hesitation, said to Yukito with relief:

"Now that you have awakened the Sharingan, the task of taking over the Land of Waterfall and defending against the Land of Earth is entrusted to you."

"But don't rush. Wait until Onoki starts his operation and sends troops to attack the Land of Fire before you act."

"Yes!!"

Having given out the general outline of the task, Bitz's mission was complete.

Seeing that he hadn't seen Mabui and Samui for a long time, Bitz got up and went to their side. After measuring their figures, he instructed them:

"Let me see your loyalty to Kumogakure."

"... Yes." *2 While the Hidden Cloud Village began its intensive operations, the other ninja villages were still clueless about what was happening.

Two days later, the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, was utterly astonished when he received the intelligence that Iwagakure's spies in the Land of Lightning had desperately sent back.

"Has this brat lost his mind? He's only just become the Daimyo and Raikage, and he's already making such a big move?!"

Beside him, Onoki's son, Iwagakure Jonin Kyoto, looked at his unusually flustered father with some confusion and asked in bewilderment:

"What's wrong, old man? What stupid thing have those barbarians from Cloud Village done this time?"

"See for yourself."

After tossing the intelligence scroll to his son, Onoki crossed his arms and pondered the reasons why Kumogakure had suddenly started the war.

After quickly scanning the scroll, Huang Tu was equally astonished.

"The Hidden Cloud Village has actually declared war on the Hidden Leaf Village? Has that new Raikage lost his mind?"

Just moments before, he inexplicably went to participate in Konoha's Chunin Exams, seemingly with the intention of easing tensions with Konoha.

Immediately afterwards, he mobilized ninjas to storm into the kingdoms of Yue and Yu, heading straight for the border of Konoha.

His attitude changed so drastically, what exactly is he trying to do?

"How would I know if you ask me about something like this?"

He replied to him irritably, and Onoki himself was also puzzled.

"Logically speaking, he has just taken office, and the people of Kumogakure and even the Land of Lightning are not yet settled. At this time, it would be unacceptable even to the people of Kumogakure themselves to easily start a war."

"Perhaps he wanted to increase his prestige and reassure the people through a victory in the war?"

Huang Tu could only come up with this one explanation, which earned him an even more annoyed glare from Onoki.

I humbly beg all my esteemed readers to give me more flowers and monthly tickets, and I desperately request that you urge me to update more frequently and provide rewards. I would be eternally grateful.

Chapter 154 Onoki grinned!

Do you think you're stupid, but everyone else is just as stupid as you?

If he wanted to win, he could easily target a few small countries and bully the weak.

They insisted on crossing the border of the greatest ninja nation in the world to cause trouble for Konoha.

Even if this young Raikage's brain was squeezed in a door, he wouldn't do something so stupid.

Huang Tu scratched his head and agreed.

"Why would he do that? He can't possibly be mentally unstable, can he?"

After they finished speaking, they both fell silent, each pondering the various possibilities.

Although the people of Iwagakure see Kumogakure as a bunch of muscle-bound brutes, even the most reckless Fourth Raikage wouldn't do something so mindless.

Therefore, there must be a reason for this that they did not expect.

Suddenly, Onoki perked up and discovered the blind spot.

"Wait, something's not right. Has the Chunin Exams in Konoha ended yet?"

Shouldn't the young Raikage still be in Konoha? How dare he wage war against Konoha?

Since the Joint Chunin Exams have been held by Konoha and Sunagakure for many years, Onoki from Kumogakure didn't pay much attention to this one, even though it was also held this time.

However, Huang Tu happened to have read the relevant report and recalled:

"It seems not yet. The Chunin Exams in Konoha are usually divided into three sessions, with the third session scheduled for half a month later."

I heard that the orphan of the Uchiha clan also participated in the exam, and because of this, a noble family from the Land of Earth specially hired ninjas from our Iwagakure village to participate in the competition in Konoha.

As he spoke, Huang Tu realized what was happening and exclaimed in surprise:

"So, the Raikage is still in Konoha, but his subordinates have declared war on Konoha."

Could it be that a split has occurred within the Hidden Cloud Village, and someone is deliberately trying to harm him?

"Idiot!!" Upon hearing Huang Tu's outrageous idea, Onoki was so angry that he grabbed a scroll and threw it at him.

"Look at the intelligence and use your pig brain to think. Without the Raikage's order, could Kumogakure mobilize such a large amount of resources and ninjas, and send 2000 ninja troops to declare war on Konoha?"

"It's obvious that something happened to the young Raikage in Konoha, and he personally gave the order to return to Kumogakure ahead of schedule!"

The loess soil is rough and thick, so being hit by it didn't hurt much. However, it did seem to have opened its eyes, and a sudden idea struck it:

"You say, could it be that something happened in Konoha, and the young Raikage saw an opportunity to gain some benefits, which is why he chose to declare war on Konoha?"

Looking at his simple-minded son with surprise, Onoki said with a hint of relief:

"Not bad, you've finally come to your senses for once."

Huang Tu scratched his head sheepishly, then quickly said:

"Then I'll go to the intelligence department right now and have them contact Konoha's spies immediately to ask about the current situation in Konoha."

After saying that, he turned to leave, but before he could take two steps, there was a rapid knocking on the door of the Tsuchikage's office.

Knock knock knock!

"Lord Tsuchikage, we have important information about Konoha!!"

Huang Tu turned around unexpectedly and exchanged a glance with Onoki.

Without further ado, Onoki immediately spoke up:
