Just then, a patrolling Ninja carried Kana, who burst in. After listening to the intelligence she desperately brought, Tsunade finally learned that the border had been easily breached by Sunagakure without her knowledge, and it had already been over two days!
--With so many Anbu sent out, what on earth were they doing!
There was no time to pursue accountability. Tsunade immediately called her deputy to send a message to Konoha at top speed, while leading most of the combat personnel back to defend and flank Sunagakure.
[Of course it feels wrong, The Old Thief sent dozens of Anbu to Amegakure, the north is probably almost empty]
[Holy crap! This girl Kana really has nine lives!]
[In other words, this wave almost killed our Kana! *anger.jpg*]
[All her companions were wiped out, Kana didn't lose her mind, and she even managed to escape despite Sunagakure's pursuit and encirclement? Awesome!]
[If Konoha can hold this wave until Tsunade returns, then there won't be any big problems]
[Tsunade: What kind of shenanigans are those old geezers in Konoha up to now?!]
[I estimate Tsunade is even thinking of blowing up at Hiruzen Sarutobi]
[When she sees Naraku appear on the battlefield, buddy, she's going to explode!]
---
Seeing that Kana was temporarily out of danger, Naraku secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
When he guessed from the anime that Sunagakure would raid Konoha, he had used Pseudo-Izanagi: Time Reversal Modification on Kana once. At the time, he didn't know the specifics, so he could only hope this operation might help her escape danger.
Naraku was a bit dissatisfied with his golden finger, which wasn't a live broadcast system.
Being able to watch the anime only after the plot concluded led to delayed information; by the time he knew Kana had indeed experienced a near-death situation, it was already over.
Gaiten Jimei is truly heaven-defying, but it also has limitations: it can only change the probability of events currently happening or about to happen in a short time.
If he was unaware of something when it happened, he simply couldn't use it in time.
System: [...]
After complaining about the system's ineffectiveness, Naraku belatedly remembered that if Tsunade saw him in his half-dead state, her lungs would burst from anger.
Naraku: Marararara... I'm doomed... ---
The animation continued to play.
Before Tsunade's message reached Konoha, the reconnaissance squad arranged by Hiruzen Sarutobi had already set out to investigate the enemy. Inuzuka Tsumes Squad welcomed new companions for their joint operation.
Naraku had not appeared in a combat posture in the audience's view for a long time, which made everyone extremely excited, both worried that his body wouldn't be able to withstand a war and eager to see the brilliant genius boy return to battle.
The members of Inuzuka Tsumes Squad in the picture were also startled. Inuzuka Tsume was more angry than surprised; if Naraku hadn't acted quickly, she probably would have cursed the Hokage aloud.
After much deliberation, she agreed to let Naraku join the reconnaissance mission, repeatedly emphasizing that he must act within his limits.
[It's been so long since I've seen Naraku dressed like this, I feel a little sad]
[The blade on Naraku's back! That's the chakra blade Sakumo made for him!]
[Is it finally time to use it... This is the first time, and perhaps the last...]
[Drag that previous bullet comment out]
[I feel like Inuzuka Tsume wants to curse the Third Hokage's mother]
[Be confident, remove "I feel like"]
[From the day Inuzuka Hana disappeared, she couldn't have had a good impression of the Third Hokage]
[Inuzuka-sensei, don't believe him!]
[This little liar will definitely fight to the death, waaaah]
[Why do I feel like Might Guy is going to get hurt...]
[Naraku treats Might Guy and his father to a blade each, Naraku is good; Might Guy and his father cry loudly from eating blades, blades are bad]
[Is the bullet comment above mentally deranged?]
[Hard to say]
After the reconnaissance teams acted independently, Hiruzen Sarutobi received the news he least wanted to hear.
Tsunade reported via summoning jutsu that a large number of Sunagakure Ninja had breached the border two days prior, intending to penetrate deep into the Land of Fire and directly attack Konoha.
He sat in his office with the two Advisors, holding the intelligence, exchanging glances. They tacitly agreed to keep the incident where they were duped by Amegakure a secret.
After an intense and heated discussion, the three finally decided to set up defenses around Mount Kikyo and ordered the reconnaissance teams to proceed to the area to defend it.
Given that Sunagakure had launched an all-out attack this time, with many strong Ninja, to maximize their chances of victory, they also issued an order to Jiraiya, instructing him to send Minato to Mount Kikyo for support no matter what.
[Are you stupid? Who told you to gamble with the Land of Fire's safety for a small gain!]
[This is simply an undeserved disaster]
[Those three still want to cover up this mess? They only wish for good things!]
[It makes me so angry! I really want to travel back in time and impeach Hiruzen Sarutobi!]
[Everyone, don't worry, once Konoha recovers, this matter won't be over! How many people from each family will die at Mount Kikyo this time? It won't be easily forgotten!]
[Sunagakure has Rasa, Chiyo, Ebizo, Pakura... Is Minato the only one Konoha has to hold the fort?]
[No, it's a critical moment for survival, are the old farts Hiruzen Sarutobi and those three glued to their sofas? Why don't they go fight side by side?!]
[I don't understand! The Hokage isn't going at this time? Do they only move when it's time to surrender and beg for mercy?]
