The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 88 Analysis of the Earth Platform (Part 2)

Tu Tai continued, "But looking at it from a deeper perspective..."

"Because of the Uchiha's counterattack, the political differences between the Third Hokage and Danzo have widened."

"The Third Hokage wanted appeasement, while Danzo wanted to use force."

"It's impossible for a force supported by a Hokage to be overthrown so quickly, or it's possible that this is just a facade created by the Third Hokage."

"Danzo released the detailed information in an attempt to lure us into testing Konoha."

"This information may not only have appeared here, but may also have appeared in Iwagakure and Sunagakure."

Raikage frowned, never expecting it to be so complicated.

Yugito, standing nearby, asked, "What's going on with the Leaf Village being bombarded with explosive tags and the Mizukage infiltrating it?"

Tu Tai's face showed a solemn expression:

"The fact that a large number of explosive tags appeared in Konoha and were successfully detonated indicates that the Uchiha have infiltrated Konoha and may even be colluding with other ninja villages."

"It's very likely that Mizukage Yagura has formed an alliance with the Uchiha clan."

"What!?" The Raikage was shocked. This was a big deal. The two great ninja villages were joining forces, which would cause their strength to expand rapidly.

"Calm down, Raikage."

Tsuchikage reminded them, "It's the Uchiha clan and Kirigakure that formed an alliance, not Konoha and Kirigakure."

The Raikage also calmed down: "Was the Mizukage's attack on Konoha the work of the Uchiha?"

Tsuchitai said uncertainly, "Although I don't know what the Uchiha used to win over the Mizukage, it's very likely."

"Otherwise, the chances of the Mizukage escaping unscathed are too low."

Tu Tai held up one finger and said:

"Let's assume that the Mizukage, Uchiha, has a partner who will allow the Mizukage to attack Konoha."

"It was to highlight the importance of the Uchiha clan to Konoha, thereby forcing the Third Hokage to relinquish power and deal with Danzo."

Yugito looked puzzled: "What does the Uchiha have that could win over the Mizukage?"

This is the most confusing part, even though the Uchiha are indeed the most powerful clan in the ninja world.

But she couldn't think of anything she could offer to win over the Water Shadow.

Yugi is only 20 years old now, and she spends most of her time and energy taming tailed beasts and fighting.

There is also a lack of knowledge in this area.

Tutai was very patient; he tapped on the information about Wuyin from recent years.

"Although the Land of Water has been closed off, sporadic intelligence has been leaking out over the past few years."

"The Blood Mist Tyranny of Kirigakure is getting worse and worse, and the Land of Water is in great chaos."

"Under these circumstances, there may be forces in Kirigakure that oppose Yagura Karatachi, and Yagura Karatachi may even be at risk of stepping down."

Kirigakure is basically a breeding ground for venomous creatures; to become the Mizukage, one must have the most power.

The Raikage and Yugito were aware of this.

Based on Tsuchikage's analysis, it's quite possible that the Mizukage might actually be involved with the Uchiha clan.

After all, the Uchiha clan also produced top-tier fighters, including the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Lei Ying frowned, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, "Since this place is full of traps, shouldn't we just stay out of it?"

A glint of light flashed in the wooden figure's eyes:

"No, Raikage, quite the opposite. If the Uchiha clan is truly involved with Kirigakure, it would be the best opportunity."

"Because no one knows how greedy the Uchiha are, whether his first step is a test or something else."

Tsuchida looked at Yukito with approval in his eyes.

Not bad, Yukito's overall perspective is quite good.

Raikage nodded thoughtfully, "Not bad."

There's a saying, "Give an inch and you'll take a mile," and nobody knows if this was a test by the Uchiha clan.

Tsuchikage added, "Danzo needs us to test Konoha, or rather, the Third Hokage."

"But the Uchiha's attitude is also very important."

After a moment's thought, Tu Tai said, "We should send some people out now."

"Just make a show of it, but keep an eye on Iwagakure and Sunagakure."

"However, the person leading the team must be our representative."

As he spoke, Tu Tai looked at Yukito.

Yukito nodded: "Then I'll do it."

In terms of combat power, Yugito, the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, is no match for Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

However, Killer Bee is unreliable most of the time, and without the Raikage around, no one can suppress him.

Therefore, the only high-end combat force left in Kumogakure is Yugito.

Tsuchitai warned, "If we cross the border, the most likely scenario is that Konoha will send the Uchiha clan to intercept us."

"But it's not impossible that it could be someone else. If it's someone else, we'll withdraw and wait and see."

"If it's the Uchiha, just observe their attitude."

"The Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan is very effective against Jinchuriki. To prevent Yugito from being at a disadvantage, it would be best to bring Nozomi and some other skilled fighters into the group just in case."

Yugito crossed his arms and said, "Don't worry, if the Uchiha's fighting strength is really that strong, I will retreat immediately."

The Raikage suddenly seemed to have a flash of inspiration, and said excitedly:

"Tsuchitai, do you think it's possible that the Uchiha will join forces with us?"

After a moment's thought, Tsuchikage said, "It's not impossible. If the Uchiha clan has enough support, it would be quite normal for them to become Hokage themselves."

"But the specifics will depend on further developments."

Tsuchikage paused for a moment: "If the Uchiha don't come, our people can test Kirigakure."

"The Hidden Mist Village has been under lockdown for too long, and there's practically no intelligence left."

"We must also be wary if the Uchiha clan and Kirigakure cooperate."

The Raikage was also very pleased to hear Tsuchikage's words, following Konoha's method of causing trouble.

Even if they do nothing, Konoha will still destroy their own village.

Although Kumogakure also suffered losses in the Third Shinobi World War, it was definitely better than Konoha.

At least they won't lose a lot of skilled fighters because of so much infighting.

"How many people should we send this time?" Raikage asked.

This kind of thing is best left to Tutai to think about.

The earthen platform already had a plan in mind, and now it extended a hand:

"We only need to send five hundred people."

Raikage exclaimed in surprise, "Five hundred is too few, isn't it?"

Tsuchida shook his head and said, "If there are too many people, it will be different. These five hundred people are just to make up the numbers. Stronger genin or chunin will do, but Yugito must be there."

"Remember, we don't need to cross the border. We just need to stay in the buffer country for a while. The main thing is to see Konoha's reaction and who they send over, whether it's the Uchiha."

The Land of Lightning and the Land of Fire are not directly adjacent; there are two buffer states between them.

These countries all have spies from each other, so if a large number of ninjas cross the border, it will be very difficult to hide their tracks.

"Our people should try to stay hidden and not be too conspicuous."

"Moreover, Onoki must have received the news as well."

"I wonder if he'll let this opportunity slip by?"
