Cherreads

Chapter 223 - Chapter 223: Surfacing

The leading squad leader among the dozens of Grass ninjas coldly smiled, looking at the fallen Cloud ninjas. He said in a mocking tone: "Oh, this is truly interesting. Didn't you Cloud ninjas visit our Land of Cherry Blossoms a while ago? As a courtesy, how can we not return the favor?"

"You, you..." The Cloud ninja looked at the Grass ninjas opposite him in shock. It seemed he had thought of something, and he roared wildly: "You, you of the Land of Cherry Blossoms want to start a war!!!! You better think clearly about the consequences!!!!"

"Hmph, idiot. So stubborn even on the verge of death." A Grass ninja next to him said disdainfully. "But even though we have intelligence from the Hidden Stone Village, we still need to confirm it. Just leave a few alive. Kill the rest." That squad leader said coldly.

"Yes!!!!!!" The dozens of Grass ninjas immediately responded. They all pulled out kunai from their ninja pouches and walked towards the dozens of Cloud ninjas who had fallen to the ground, sneering.

"You, you actually allied with Hidden Stone Village!!!" Hearing their words, these dozens of Cloud ninjas' faces instantly turned incomparably pale. Even if they were idiots, they understood the cause and effect of the situation.

This invasion was actually the result of prior negotiations between the Grass ninjas and Hidden Stone Village ninjas. In other words, both sides had jointly launched a war against the Cloud Village. And most importantly, the Cloud Village had not detected this matter at all before!!!!

"Isn't this obvious? Do you only understand now?" The Grass ninja squad leader said coldly. Just then, the leading Cloud ninja fiercely raised his head, his eyes filled with despair, and roared: "Run, whoever can move!!!! We'll hold them off here!!!! We must send this information back to the village!!!!"

"Captain!!!!" The three slightly injured Cloud ninjas behind him instantly turned red-eyed. They knew the captain was talking to them, then gritted their teeth and fiercely rushed backward. They already knew the captain's plan.

"Not good!!!!" The Grass ninja squad leader's face instantly changed. He shouted coldly: "Chase!!!! We cannot let them send the information back to the Cloud Village!!!!" His words had just fallen when he fiercely charged forward. The Grass ninjas behind him also followed closely.

"Dream on!!!!" The Cloud ninja squad leader roared loudly. His hands had unknowingly completed hand seals. He was already prepared to die in battle, so he completely disregarded his injuries. And the nearly ten Cloud ninjas behind him were the same.

He slammed his hands fiercely onto the ground. "Raiton: Ground Shock!!!!" Instantly, massive blue lightning violently erupted from the ground, like living giant snakes opening their bloody mouths and biting towards the many Grass ninjas opposite them.

The ten Cloud ninjas behind them also completely disregarded their injuries and fully channeled the chakra in their bodies. "Raiton: Ground Shock!!!!" "Raiton: False Darkness!!!!" Massive lightning ninjutsu swept towards the Grass ninjas opposite them.

The Grass ninja captain's face instantly changed. He roared loudly: "Scatter!!!!!!!!!" Instantly, the Grass ninjas turned into countless black shadows and scattered in an instant. "Bang!!!!!!!!!" A huge explosion echoed throughout the forest. Blue lightning scattered everywhere. A large number of trees slowly fell, and the stirred-up dust obscured their vision.

"Damn it!!!! Did he secretly complete the hand seals for Lightning Style during the conversation with me? As expected of a Cloud ninja." The Grass ninja captain immediately gritted his teeth. At this moment, the smoke and mist had gradually dispersed, but the Cloud ninjas had already disappeared.

"We can't let them send the information back to the Cloud Village. Hinata, you go notify the major forces behind us immediately. The rest of us will go pursue!!!! We will be the vanguard!!!!" The Grass ninja captain said coldly. "Yes!!!!" Immediately, everyone turned into countless black shadows and pursued them.

The ninja named Hinata also nodded, turning into a black shadow and moving backward to notify the major forces of the Grass ninjas.

And the war of the Land of Cherry Blossoms invading the Land of Lightning was also officially declared. The invading ninjas of the Land of Cherry Blossoms were unstoppable, directly breaking through the border and invading the Land of Lightning.

However, the Cloud Village apparently had not received the news yet, after all, the intelligence had not been sent back. However, the actions of the Grass ninjas could not escape the notice of other ninja villages.

A few days later, when this news spread, the entire ninja world was in an uproar. The Land of Cherry Blossoms actually dared to proactively invade the Land of Lightning. This was something that was completely impossible in the past. Small countries usually dared not interfere in wars between great powers, only silently enduring.

As long as the great powers did not invade them, they could already burn high incense. And although the Land of Cherry Blossoms had developed rapidly in recent years, and had even repelled the joint attack of the Cloud ninjas and Hidden Stone ninjas last time,

which was enough to prove that their strength was among the top under the five great nations, to say that they proactively attacked the five great nations, the Grass ninjas definitely did not have this strength.

The last time they destroyed Konoha was just because Itachi and Deidara caught Konoha off guard, plus Itachi could manipulate the Tailed Beasts, but it had nothing to do with the Grass Village.

But thinking back to the Hidden Stone Village's sudden inexplicable invasion of the Land of Lightning, plus the Hidden Stone Village had only invaded the Land of Lightning not long ago, and then the Grass Village suddenly launched a surprise attack on the Land of Lightning, this was a bit too coincidental.

Many smart people had already guessed at this point that the Hidden Stone Village and the Grass Village had already formed an alliance, and this invasion of the Land of Lightning was probably a premeditated plan, the joint work of both parties.

No wonder the Grass Village dared to invade the Land of Lightning so blatantly. It turned out they had allied with the Hidden Stone Village. Thinking of this, many people instantly gasped. They all understood that this war had already moved towards an unpredictable direction.

Instantly, the ninja world was in an uproar, and this muddy water became even muddier due to the Grass ninjas' involvement. All major forces immediately began to stir.
