Chapter 1143
"Has the moon been partially destroyed by a meteorite... or..."
Looking ahead, there is a huge crater... or it can't be called a crater, but the moon is missing 1/5 and has become an irregular sphere.
"This is caused by the fight between Lord Hokage and Lord Noah."
Sakura still thinks she is crazy when she recalls it now, and she can't believe the past memories at all.
Before that battle, there were all kinds of dazzling tactical duels. The two people with full Shimotsuki swordsmanship gave the girl a great shock in the battle.
They are obviously as sacred as immortals, but their moves... have no taboos.
Then there is exaggerated light pollution, special effects that can blind the eyes and destructive waves are simply a nightmare.
Finally, after slashing one-fifth of the moon, Lord Noah's expression is a little distressed.
Then he said that if this continues, Kaguya will come out early, so Kakashi, the last move.
Then she didn't know.
She just heard the roar and the sound of the sea before she fainted. It seems that there is a force acting on the soul.
…
Finally, Sakura brought Shikaku back to the experimental base.
It was a pity that this Nabekage was not an excellent experimental material, so Orochimaru had no interest in talking to him.
Tsunade went down to the ground to relax and gamble, and Noah gave her a long vacation.
I don't know if it was kindness or a prophecy.
Not only Tsunade, but also other people who don't have projects on hand can return to the ninja world.
For example, Might Guy and Neji also left with Lady Tsunade, so the base became a little deserted.
Until seeing the Hokage lying in the nutrition cabin, Shikaku felt a little familiar.
"What is Hokage doing?"
"Deep sleep, according to Lord Noah, this is self-repair after suffering a devastating blow."
"This can't be the battle on the back of the moon..."
"Yes."
"Hell training, well-deserved."
After visiting all the attractions, Shikaku was taken to the outside of the office, but the ordinary wooden door made both of them feel a little...unwilling to approach.
Sakura had seen the cruelty and grand scenes of Lord Noah's attack, and out of biological instinct, she didn't want to get close to a monster that could easily take her life.
Shikaku had a premonition that if he stepped in, his three views might be shattered.
He mustered up his courage and opened the door.
"Desire for peace does not mean not starting a war."
Shikaku's breathing stagnated. Lord Noah's first sentence was very shocking.
...
"You guessed right, the Akatsuki organization has the power to completely crush the ninja world, and it was all acting before."
"It was just to promote the change of the bottom-level thinking of the entire ninja world and to make the civilian productivity explode, so they single-handedly organized the Cold War situation."
"You know, humans will become particularly powerful or united when there are external enemies."
"We played this role."
"Now it seems that the effect is very good."
Shikaku's mind could not calm down for a long time. What he guessed and what the boss behind the scenes confessed were completely two concepts, and most of them were things he had not thought of.
Noah talked about most of the plans for the previous ten years, including land reform and the promotion nodes of business and science and technology.
Even the development steps of the East Ocean Treaty were analyzed.
Even if Noah is a powerful warrior, it is impossible for the East Ocean Treaty to be so obedient and move forward every step as planned.
Unless... there is a big figure who is very important in the East Ocean Treaty to help Noah guide the direction.
No, it can't be within the three countries.
The suspicion between the three countries has always been small. There must be a person who is trustworthy, non-threatening, and can even provide assistance.
"Yes, Sarutobi Hiruzen is my informant."
Shikaku... shuddered.
The biggest conspirator in the ninja world, the world destroyer, such a title can be given to Noah without hesitation.
It turns out that everything is under the control of the person in front of him, even the third generation...
Suddenly I feel that the East Ocean Treaty Treaty is so pitiful.
Wait, it's not just the ninjas who are pitiful.
"Lord Noah, the Daimyo..."
Shikaku thought of the sudden change of the Daimyo of the Land of Water at the beginning, so the Land of Water was completely destroyed, right...
"That's right, the Daimyo of the five major countries are all gone, and the system of one country and one village has long been in name only."
...It turned out that the five major countries were together, and I was narrow-minded.
"Next, prepare for the confluence of the East and the West to completely break down the barriers of the Ninja World."
"And the villain who is worthy of a fight by all the strong men in the Ninja World is already in place, and we don't have much time left."
Then it was the history of the Otsutsuki clan and the ultimate crisis of the Ninja World.
"We don't have much time left."
"Kakashi will be the main force in the future."
"So the implementation of the specific plan will fall on our shoulders, and I hope Shikaku can show your talents without scruples."
The Konoha Nabekage became more and more panicked as he listened. How could this involve the survival of the Ninja World?
The emergence of ninjas, the source of chakra, interstellar races, and various problems explained the motives of the Akatsuki Organization to him, but they also gave him a splitting headache.
Why is this world so full of disasters?
"For the continuation and future of the ninja world, Shikaku, please make yourself great."
... Lord Noah is really good at making people bear the weight of the world.
The lazy kid at home hasn't had any children yet, but he and the daughter of the Kazekage have shown some signs of success recently. Really...
"Yes, please give me the plan, I will complete it at all costs."
There was a ruthless murderous look in Shikaku's eyes.
This is also a point that Noah is optimistic about him. He knows how to let others sacrifice at critical moments and will make trade-offs that are in line with his interests.
The position of commander is not something a good person can sit on.
But...
"Shikaku, your strength is too poor, so can you strengthen it first? Without a good physique, you can't support the unpredictable changes in the later stage."
After a while, Shikaku, who was about to die, was thrown into the incubator.
"Xiaoying, inject him with a dual-attribute strengthening potion. Then adjust the efficacy of the medicine and let him wake up as soon as possible."
"Yes."
"Let him come to the countermeasures room after he wakes up."
Shikaku in the incubator shook instinctively. He couldn't escape the fate of a worker.
A few months later, Shikaku walked out of the tunnel and returned to the Ninja Continent.
Feeling the free air of the Ninja World, he almost shed tears.
It is indeed the hell training. Even as a commander, he has to go through countless trials.
"Alas... the ninja world is going to be in chaos."
After returning to Konoha, Shikaku looked very good. Some people thought that his strength had greatly improved after secret training, so he was in good condition.
Only he knew that it was a kind of confidence that he was in control of the wisdom. At least the cards in his hand were really scary.
Chapter 125 Joint Chunin Exam
As soon as I returned to the office, someone brought a stack of documents, saying that another business dispute and conflict had occurred in the Kingdom of Soup, which was related to the local administrative agency.
If it were in the past, the Anbu would be sent to investigate, but this time...
Shikaku sneered.
Friction? I have to create friction now.
"No need to send people. We in Konoha are upright and fearless.
Let the Kingdom of Soup manage its subordinates. Some things will have to pay a price. Don't say I didn't warn you."
This... is very tough.
But Konoha has long wanted to do this, because the call to maintain peace has not been so severe, but it has given some idiots the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Now we must kill the fantasy of that group of people and let them know that the weak must be humble in front of the strong.
Even this letter was an open letter, which spread throughout the ninja world along with newspapers.
"What is Konoha doing?"
The idiots in Yu-no-Kuni who were bewitched by Sarutobi Hiruzen were dumbfounded. They thought they could get the kind of material assistance that the Wave Country had.
Now they saw again that they and others were trying to calculate the top of the five major, the strongest ninja village.
They were scared and immediately began to contact the person behind the scenes to try to save themselves.
After Konoha sent out this open letter, the entire ninja world suddenly became much more peaceful.
And after publicly warning those with ulterior motives, Konoha also began a series of adjustments within the internal.
The two-year Genin training class was disbanded, and the Nine-Tails returned to the Hokage Building to take charge.
The Jonin on outbound missions also tried to reduce the number of S-level missions and began to shrink their manpower.
The strong men in the village often gathered together for meetings, and many war supplies began to be prepared.
This big commotion made people think that Shikaku was preparing to go to war with the three eastern countries.
Even other forces in the ninja world have detected these big moves, and the tense atmosphere began to spread.
In the Hokage Building.
"The training of Lord Hokage is about to end, so let me come back to make preparations."
Facing Shikaku's calmness, a ninja sincerely asked Lord Hokage whether he was going to start a war in the ninja world.
"No, our Konoha, Akatsuki Organization, and the Western Continental Pact have always been based on peace."
If you want to start a war, you have to wait for the other side to make the first move.
"In view of the frequent frictions and conflicts in the past two years, in order to ease the disputes in the ninja world, our Konoha will host a joint Chunin exam for the entire ninja world."
There was an uproar below.
"What! That's it?"
"Joint Chunin exam?"
"Isn't it a bit meaningless at this time?"
No matter whether they wanted to start a war or not, they didn't expect the turning point to be so outrageous.
Since the division of the East and the West, there have been very few such joint Chunin exams.
The original purpose of the joint exam was to deepen the friendly relations between the allied countries, and it was also a microcosm of the war between the allied countries.
In order to avoid unnecessary loss of combat power and a situation where both sides suffer losses, the Joint Chunin Exam came into being.
