Chapter 192: Yunyin plotting
Chapter 192 Cloud Hidden Conspiracy
Konoha 47, April, early spring.
The war between Konoha and Yunyin has lasted for a year, and the two sides have been in a stalemate at the border of the Tang Kingdom.
Konoha's tenacity is beyond everyone's imagination, but to be able to push Konoha to such a situation, Yun Yin's power cannot be underestimated.
However, Yunyin’s aggressive attack at the beginning did bring huge troubles to the Fire Nation and Konoha, but as the strong period passed, Konoha sent a yellow flash to the battlefield to support, and the battle between Yunyin and Konoha seemed quite sluggish.
Although in terms of materials, Yunyin adopted the time-space ninjutsu transmission method, and was not worried about the sneak attack of the yellow flash, but the yellow flash can become famous in the Yanyin battlefield. The two battles ended with absolute strength.
Before, in order to harass the border of the Nation of Fire and let Konoha disperse its forces, Yun Yin adopted a combat strategy in the form of a small team, putting pressure on the Nation of Fire from different aspects.
This strategy is theoretically sound. If it is used properly, it can put pressure on Konoha and let Yun Yin regain the advantage.
However, this strategy was simply destroyed by the yellow flash.
The multiple elite Jōnin teams they sent over mysteriously disappeared from the territory of the Land of Fire within half a month.
And at that time, it was also the moment when the yellow flash disappeared from the frontal battlefield, and it was clear at a glance who did it.
The Hyuga clan of ninjas determined the direction and hiding place of the Yunyin ninja team, and then the yellow flash took action to solve the problem. Not only did Yunyin get no benefit, but he lost a lot of elite ninjas for no reason. It felt like shooting himself in the foot.
It is said that the Fourth Raikage was furious in the camp because of this incident, and he was naturally resentful towards the yellow flash, but his hatred for the Hyuga clan's white eyes was even higher.
Perhaps because of the mention of the word Hyuga, it reminded him of the extremely troublesome white-eyed woman he met two years ago on the Yanyin battlefield.
Every time Yunyin's good things are destroyed, it seems to be related to the white eyes.
On the Yanyin battlefield, Yunyin is undoubtedly the dominant side, but because Hyuga Ayane blocked the way, Yunyin's attack plan was destroyed many times.
The same is true now, the ninjas of the Hyuga Clan provided Yellow Flash with an accurate route, and in just half a month, they wiped out the Yunyin elite team that had sneaked into the Land of Fire.
There is certainly a reason why the yellow flash is powerful, but if it weren't for the supercilious eyes of the Hyuga clan, it would be absolutely impossible for Konoha to pull out these Yunyin elite teams.
After all, in order to put pressure on Konoha from the side, the elite team that infiltrated the Land of Fire were all selected from their own shadow guards and Anbu. With so much loss at once, the Fourth Raikage was of course very depressed about this matter.
◎
Yun Hidden Camp in Yuno Country, in an office made of simple tents.
Kunyin went to the Ninja Terrace and was reporting to Fourth Raikage Ai.
"Master Raikage, according to statistics, we lost a total of 123 ninjas last month, including seven top ninjas, seventy-one middle ninjas, and forty-five low ninjas."
"How did you lose so much?"
After listening to the fourth generation of Lei Ying, he was stunned.
It seems that the loss is very small, but this is only the death toll of cloud hidden ninjas in one month. It neither counts the wounded, nor the number of sacrificed ninjas in a whole year.
In addition to a large-scale battle with Konoha last year, if all statistics are used, the number of victims is at least 2,000, and the number of wounded and remnants is at least 4,000.
The earth platform did not speak.
Fourth Raikage snorted softly, and knew who did it.
Except for the yellow flash, among Konoha, there is no second person who can do this kind of thing.
"Has the Konoha battle damage statistics been calculated?"
Fourth Raikage asked.
Taitai flipped through a few pages of the document held in his hand, and reported according to the content above:
"Based on the whole year, Konoha's casualty rate should be less than 60% of our Yunyin's casualty rate."
Hearing what Tutai said, Fourth Raikage's face darkened.
Doesn't this mean that for every six Konoha casualties, Yunyin will suffer ten casualties?
Yunyin has been dormant for many years, and even the second ninja world war is recharging his energy, waiting for the opportunity to defeat Konoha and establish his position as the overlord of the five major kingdoms...
This is not in line with the prediction of the fourth generation of Raikage.
"Before the yellow flash came, Konoha's casualty rate was much higher than our Yunyin. His ability to reap the battlefield is terrible, no wonder Yanyin lost so quickly."
Tutai replied with a helpless expression.
Before fighting Konoha, no one expected that a well-known Konoha Jōnin would become a turning point in the battlefield.
By the time you pay attention, it's too late.
The strength of the opponent has grown to a very terrifying level.
Kunyin is famous in the ninja world for his fast and fierce ninjutsu. All generations of Raikage have been the best in instant jutsu. After the second generation of Konoha Hokage, Senju Fujian, died in the battle, the fastest ninja in the ninja world has always been inherited by Yunyin Raikage.
The fourth generation of Raikage, who inherited the excellent genes of the third generation of Raikage, is faster than his father, the third generation of Raikage, and can be said to be the fastest ninja of contemporary ninjas.
However, once you meet Yellow Flash, you will find that the title of the fastest ninja is prepared for Yellow Flash.
Even if he is proud of his Lightning Escape Blinking Technique, the Fourth Raikage will not say that his speed is better than the opponent at this moment.
"He is simply a monster. I can only keep up with his neural response ability after turning on the Lightning Chakra Mode. That is simply not a response ability that humans can achieve."
Fourth Raikage said in such a solemn tone.
"Master Raikage, is this admitting defeat?"
Tutai smiled.
"Hmph, at present, if the yellow flash is not restricted or solved, the rest of the plots will be completely useless to Konoha."
Fourth Raikage's tone is strong, but he already feels admiration and respect for Yellow Flash's ability.
"However, we have no way to limit the yellow flash, even if it is to restrain him. There is no more appropriate adjective to praise him than the warm spring of our own people and the cold winter of the enemy."
Although he is an enemy, Tutai also respects young and promising ninjas like Yellow Flash.
"Not only that, the white eyes are also a problem."
Fourth Raikage put his hands on the table into fists, thinking of an unpleasant memory.
Tutai understood the reason for Fourth Raikage's depression.
Rolling eyes... Alas, another unsolvable problem. Tutai smiled wryly in his heart.
With the existence of Baiyan, Konoha is not afraid of any sneak attack, and Yunyin's sneak attack strategy will be seen through by the ninjas of the Hyuga clan.
In front of those eyes, no matter how sophisticated Yun Yin's plan was, it seemed to be unfolding under the eyes of the other party, completely revealing his whereabouts.
"What should I do next?"
Fourth Raikage seems to be talking to himself, with a cautious expression.
"How about adding the power of Eight Tails?"
Suggestions for soil platform.
"Are you mocking me? Earth platform? The last time Bee and I teamed up and fought against the yellow flash."
Fourth Raikage's face was ugly, and he didn't say the result, but his face said everything, that battle was not satisfactory.
His younger brother Kirabi is Yunyin's Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
Moreover, it is a special jinchuriki who has completed the perfect jinchuriki practice, and can control the eight tails in his body as he likes. However, with the power of his fourth generation Raikage, he still cannot defeat the yellow flash.
Even if he fought the yellow flash again in the past, it was impossible to change the result.
Thinking of that young man with blond hair, Fourth Raikage felt a little desperate.
In the next few decades, will Yun Yin have no hope of defeating Konoha?
Fourth Raikage was extremely unwilling. His father, the third Raikage and Yunyin, had worked together for decades, but his ambition was easily stopped by a Konoha ninja who was younger than him.
It is conceivable that the future of the five major countries will still be respected by the Land of Fire, the Ninja Village will still be headed by Konoha, and Yun Yin will always be the second child of Wannian.
Seeing Raikage Fourth Raikage's uncertain face, Tutai knew that Raikage Fourth Raikage's belief in invincibility had been broken.
During the battle with Ayane Hinata, the proud Thunder Armor could not withstand the attack of Rouquan, and suffered internal injuries many times.
Fighting against the yellow flashing Namikaze Minato, his own speed was completely defeated by the opponent.
Meeting these two ninjas, Tutai didn't know how to describe the bad mood of the Fourth Raikage.
Maybe this is the setback that the fourth generation of Raikage must experience, and it is also the setback that Yunyin must experience.
But experiencing setbacks is not necessarily a bad thing.
Being able to regard these setbacks as growth is a good thing for the immature Fourth Raikage.
Know how to advance and retreat, be able to clearly recognize the gap between the enemy and ourselves, and broaden your horizons, instead of blindly relying on brute force to win. Both wisdom and courage are the talents that the Five Kages must possess.
Even a yellow flash is not going to be smooth sailing in life.
However, Master Raikage cannot be allowed to suffer too much, and setbacks should be limited. Right now, it's almost time. Tutai nodded secretly, making a certain decision.

In the Konoha Camp in Yuno Country.
A swift thunder flashed past, and the beautiful fang-like light of a knife split the air.
A large and a small figure passed by.
The moment they landed, the two turned around and rushed towards each other, using the ground as a fulcrum.
The fang-like dagger collided with the peculiar three-pronged kunai, and the wind and thunder collided, sparking fierce sparks.
"Okay, Kakashi, let's stop here today, I still have tasks."
Minato's eyes showed relief, and he stopped his duel with Kakashi.
Kakashi nodded, put down the White Fang dagger in his hand, the lightning on it spread out, and put it in the scabbard behind him.
"Your teleportation technique is already very fast. Next, you need to enhance the ability to bestow Lightning Dungeon."
It means that the power of Lei Dun is still weak.
But this is also Kakashi's harsh requirement. It has been a while since he became a Jonin. Now Kakashi is fourteen years old and is the youngest Jonin in the history of Konoha.
Minato believes that the future Kakashi may have the possibility to surpass himself.
"I understand, Minato-sensei."
Kakashi replied lightly.
Today's Watergate team actually exists only in name.
Because Minato's killing speed is too fast, no one in Konoha can keep up with Minato's skills, so Minato's team formation style is extremely random, not a fixed team formation mode.
Changing the team according to different tasks is also a decision made by Konoha's senior management.
But in these ever-changing teams, Kakashi is the ninja who is often carried by Minato.
One is because Kakashi has worked under Minato for several years and has a high degree of adaptation.
The second is that Kakashi inherited his father Konoha Shirato's swordsmanship, and is also a jonin, able to participate in difficult tasks.
It's just that this mission seems a bit special. Kakashi has not received an order to perform the mission with Minato, so the training can only end here.
Minato and Kakashi made a simple farewell, and left here to carry out the task assigned to him.
Probably another solo mission to raid Yunyin Ninja alone.
Kakashi guessed in his heart.
Because that's what Watergate does every day.
At the same time, I also lamented the power of Minato.
In the past, he could still vaguely feel the boundaries of Minato's strength, but now he can't feel it.
At this rate of development, it will be a matter of time to become the strongest ninja in the ninja world.
Don't think about these things, Kakashi did not continue to practice after Minato left.
Although I know that what I want to train next is to further strengthen Thunder Dun, but there is actually no need to worry.
That is not something that can be done in a day or two. Occasionally, you have to relax your body and combine work with rest.
So, Kakashi was going to go back to take a rest, read a book, and absorb knowledge other than ninja.
Ninjas are just a part of life, but not the whole of life.
He walked towards the camp, and when he got there, two people came towards him, making Kakashi take a look at them.
the reason is simple.
One of them is too young.
About four or five years old, with a small body and arms, and an extremely immature face... A little boy.
The boy's clothes are embroidered with the round fan logo.
represents the Uchiha clan.
The adult next to the boy, Kakashi knew.
Uchiha Fugaku.
The current patriarch of the Uchiha clan is powerful. Although his reputation is not as good as Yellow Flash, he is also a well-known figure in the ninja world.
Possesses Sharingan who is as famous as Baiyan. In terms of strength, I am afraid that it can be tied with Sannin.
Kakashi looked at the boy next to Fuyue again, and sighed in his heart.
Really, bringing such a young ignorant child here to shape the three views...is it really appropriate?
It will leave a lifetime of shadows.
Could it be that this child has an enmity with Fuyue Shangren? Kakashi couldn't help thinking about it.
Kakashi and Fuyue don't know each other, but he has some relationship with the Uchiha clan.
Among the three subordinates of his father, Sakumo Hatake, one of them was a ninja from the Uchiha clan.
Before defecting, he was still a genius who was able to compete with Uchiha Fugaku for the position of Uchiha patriarch.
But Kakashi had no desire to talk to Fuyue, and walked past Fuyue silently without saying anything.
Fuyue stopped in his tracks, and did not speak like Kakashi.
The boy beside him saw his father stop, and stopped too.
The boy turned to look at Kakashi's back, with curiosity in his eyes.
"Father, that man is..."
Fuyue heard the boy's question, and said: "Hatake Kakashi. A genius who entered school at the age of four and graduated from the ninja school at the age of five. After that, he became a Chunin at the age of six, and a Jonin at the age of twelve... It can be said that he is one of the Konoha Jonin with the most legendary stories in Konoha today."
The boy didn't speak, just looked at Kakashi's back curiously.
"Itachi, you have to grow up as soon as possible...to become such a genius, and you must surpass him."
Father Fugaku's voice rang in his ears.
The boy named Itachi didn't understand why his father made such a request.
Just nodded ignorantly.
But there is also a thought in my heart, if I become a person called Kakashi, can I make my father happy?
Itachi's little head was full of such thoughts.

In the meeting room of Yunyin Camp.
The fourth generation of Raikage and all the Yunyin jonin who participated in the meeting gathered together.
The Yunyin jounin who were able to enter this conference room are all well-known jounin in the ninja world, and they hold important positions in Yunyin.
Among them, the earth platform is also listed.
Used to follow the third generation of Raikage's blood following the boundary melting ninja, after the third generation of Raikage's sacrifice, he has been doing his best to assist the third generation of Raikage's son, which is now the fourth generation of Raikage.
Regarding how to fight against Konoha, Yunyin has had more than one meeting this month, but each meeting ended without a problem because no suitable method could be found.
Facing the yellow flash, even with all his resourcefulness on the battlefield, he couldn't shake Konoha at all.
Although Yunyin didn't use all his strength, Konoha also had spare strength, and both sides were testing the limits of each other's strength.
However, compared to Konoha, the current situation is indeed unfavorable to Yunyin.
The fourth generation of Raikage saw that all the Kumoin jonin here could not come up with any good solutions. Although he was disappointed, he also knew that they had done everything they could in the face of the yellow flash. However, it was God's will that made Yunyin's long-cherished wish to dominate the ninja world over the years.
At this moment, Yunyin, who was sitting on the left, spoke at the Nindodai.
"There are two roads before our eyes."
"Two paths? Which two paths?"
Everyone was attracted by the words of the earth platform.
"The first is to retreat and make a truce with Konoha."
Tutai said.
Junin Kumoin and Raikage Fourth Raikage frowned.
Know that this is the best option, but they don't want to do it.
"At present, we have no way to deal with the yellow flash. A truce is the best option."
"..." Fourth Raikage couldn't bear his temper, and asked the Tutai: "Tutai, why don't you just talk about the second way, what is the second way?"
Tutai knew that the fourth Raikage would say this, so he coughed and continued: "The second way is still a truce with Konoha."
"?"
Everyone looked at him suspiciously.
Taitai looked at everyone calmly, and said calmly: "It's not a real truce, but an opportunity to prepare."
"But if you lose this opportunity, it will be even more difficult to find opportunities in the future."
A Yunyin Shangren said.
Tutai didn’t think so, and replied to the Jōnin: “No, now is the real chance. I’ve already confirmed it.”
"Sure?"
"There are many internal hidden dangers in Konoha. Now because of the external pressure from Yunyin, this conflict has not broken out. This time against us Yunyin, Konoha did not send Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas. This has actually explained the problem."
"It is indeed a bit strange. Orochimaru ended the battlefield of the Land of Rain, and when we Yunyin attacked the Land of Fire, Konoha left Orochimaru idle and sent Akimichi to fetch the wind. According to common sense, Orochimaru should come over."
Konoha made such an unexpected move, and at that time, Yun Yin thought it was some kind of conspiracy.
"Not only that, when Akimichi Torukaze fought with us Yunyin, he basically didn't win, and Konoha was always suppressed by us. After the yellow flash ended the threat of Iwagakure, Konoha's senior management was immediately dispatched here, and Konoha's decline was reversed. It can be seen that the third generation of Hokage is already paving the way for the yellow flash."
Tutai said seriously.
The Yunyin upper ninjas whispered.
"If this is the case, then there should be no retreat."
"Yeah, once the yellow flash becomes Hokage, it will be even more difficult for us to deal with Konoha."
"Sure enough, we should continue to fight."
…
Fourth Raikage ignored these, but turned to look at the earth platform, motioning for him to speak more clearly.
Tutai also knew that these people were overwhelmed by the yellow flash, so he didn't say anything about it. After all, he was also surprised by the power of the yellow flash.
You can't do it by force, you can only outsmart it.
The earth platform distributes the materials that have been prepared in front of each person one by one.
Everyone stopped discussing and watched the summary of materials made by the platform.
The content made above is all about Konoha.
And the initial inference started from the end of the Battle of the Land of Rain by Orochimaru, and the analysis began.
Among them, there is also the credit of the spy who sneaked into the Konoha.
Although the core of Konoha cannot be reached, through long-term observation and private investigation, I have also obtained a lot of information that seems useless, but can analyze a lot of real benefits.
After the War of the Land of Rain ended, Yunyin challenged Konoha, Orochimaru was left idle, and Konoha faced Yunyin's decline. It was not until the Yanyin battlefield was ended by the yellow flash that the situation was reversed.
This series of events were carefully recorded and analyzed by the earth platform.
"According to my investigation, many tasks of Yellow Flash are completed by one person. Although he is well-known and powerful enough, he has never served as a battlefield commander. Do you think it is reasonable for such a person to be a Hokage?"
"..."
Everyone, Yunyin Shangren began to think.
The answer is unreasonable.
If they were Konoha ninjas, they would be more willing to recommend Orochimaru as the top Hokage.
Five Kages are not able to take on the role with sufficient strength.
Ninja is a symbol of a country's military strength.
Ying, that is, the core figure of this army, must have a strong command ability.
And the yellow flash... Although the combat power is powerful, it has not commanded any battles.
Simply put, the yellow flash becomes Hokage, which has serious flaws.
Has not shown any decent command ability.
Kunin’s ninjas are not fools, and Konoha’s high-level executives deliberately left Orochimaru idle when Yunyin attacked, and the yellow flash ended the battle of Yanyin, but was immediately dispatched...
They can only think of one possibility—the Third Hokage from Konoha needs a puppet.
The yellow flash is his object of choice.
"So, is it necessary to act as a truce at this time, and let Konoha's high-level officials fall into infighting?"
A Yun Yin Shangren guessed the plan of the earth platform.
"That's right. Now we can't deal with the yellow flash. If it continues to wear down like this, it will be extremely detrimental to the development of Yunyin. I personally prefer a truce and let the yellow flash go back to inherit the position of the fourth Hokage. Once he takes the position of the third Hokage, he will conflict with the third Hokage. That is our opportunity for Yunyin."
"But all of this is just speculation. It is not certain that the situation inside Konoha is like this."
One Yun Yin held an objection.
"The guess is also based on the analysis of the exact information." Tutai said confidently: "To be on the safe side, we really have to be prepared with both hands. If the interior of Konoha is not what we think, it will not be too late to fight Konoha."
"What about the deadline? You can't wait forever."
"Let's take the deadline of December this year." Tutai thought for a while and continued to answer: "We are now on a truce. Before December this year, Konoha should be able to decide the candidate for the Fourth Hokage. If the Yellow Flash is promoted to the Fourth Hokage at that time, no matter whether the Third Hokage intends to support the Yellow Flash as a puppet and become the Yellow Flash of Hokage, it means that he will not easily go to the battlefield again."
As long as there is no yellow flash, the rest of the Konoha ninjas, even if the third Hokage comes in person, they Yun Yin will not be afraid.
"Is there a showdown at that time?"
A part of Yunyin's upper ninjas objected, but most of the upper ninjas who participated in the meeting were willing to move.
It was only delayed for a few months, which was not a big problem for Yun Yin.
The total loss of Konoha who fought against Sand Yin and Yan Yin is far more than that of Yun Yin.
In addition, Yunyin has sufficient armaments and logistics supplies. The only obstacle in front of the road is the yellow flash.
If Yellow Flash is promoted to the Fourth Hokage, and the power is emptied, it will definitely conflict with the Third Hokage, and Konoha will be in chaos.
If the third Hokage intends to really treat Yellow Flash as the heir and hand over all the power to him, it doesn't matter. Busy with the heavy affairs inside Konoha, no matter how powerful the yellow flash is, it is impossible to be distracted. While maintaining the stability inside Konoha, at the same time fight against Yun Yin in person.
After all, Yun Yin has heard about Konoha's complicated ninja clan.
"That's right. The next thing we have to do is to prepare one thing, which is to create momentum for Yellow Flash, so that he can successfully become the Fourth Hokage. It is best to tout him as the number one ninja in the ninja world."
A gleam flashed in Tutai's eyes.
Instead of dismantling Konoha's prestige from the outside, there is also a way to do it from the inside.
Fourth Lei Ying nodded slightly after hearing the plan of Tutai.
Although this method is not very suitable for him, as a shadow, there is no need to be petty and just use brute force to solve the problem.
"Taitai, can success be guaranteed?"
The Fourth Raikage only asked this question.
Tutai smiled helplessly.
"It's not possible, it's just a reasonable inference made after collecting enough information. Anyway, we can't stop the yellow flash now, can't we?"
The Fourth Raikage was dumbfounded.
Indeed, there is no way to suppress the yellow flash, which is the biggest problem.
"Hmph, then follow this plan."
