Chapter 757: Bad News for the Allied Forces, the Cloud Village's Direction
Hokage!
Sasuke never thought that one day he would have to bear the weight of these two words. Although it didn't add anything substantial, just a change in title, it felt as if something more had been placed on his shoulders. Perhaps this thing was called responsibility. Sasuke, accustomed to freedom, found it a bit hard to adapt to for a moment.
"Sasuke, go back and get some good rest!"
"The next period of time might be very busy!"
"The war is still going on!"
As Naruto spoke, Sasuke frowned. "Aren't we going to do something now? The ninja from the other three villages are still continuously assembling, preparing to break through Konoha's defense line!"
Hearing this, Naruto shook his head. "We have to give them a little chance! Perhaps they will choose to give up out of fear!"
Give up out of fear?
Sasuke understood. Naruto wanted to give the three great ninja villages some time. Many things had happened now. If they weren't given some time to consider, they might really choose a mutually destructive path.
At this moment, in the direction of the Cloud Village, the various Raikage leading the Cloud ninja were not heading straight for Konoha. The direction of their advance was very strange; they were heading towards the Land of Earth, seeming to intend to join up with the Stone ninja of the Land of Earth before attacking Konoha together.
Among these ninja forces, many of the Cloud ninja were wearing peculiar goggles. These were not the trashy kind that displayed combat power, but goggles that could see the flow of an enemy's chakra and even predict their movements to a certain extent. They were also single-lensed.
Having such goggles, while not providing a huge advantage, was equivalent to possessing a two-tomoe Sharingan, which was still a great help in battle.
"Lord Fourth! We will arrive at the rendezvous point with the Stone in two hours!"
Hearing this, the Fourth Raikage nodded. "Send some people ahead to make preparations!"
The Cloud ninja quickly retreated, leading a team of ninja to accelerate forward. Their legs were also equipped with some strange devices that could speed up the burst of chakra, increasing the speed of the Body Flicker Technique. A small team of ninja disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, the Fourth Raikage couldn't help but sigh. If these so-called scientific ninja tools had appeared in their era, then titles like "Blue Lightning" and "Golden Flash" would not have gone to him and Konoha's Fourth Hokage! Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the Fourth Raikage's lips. It was precisely because of these scientific ninja tools that the Cloud Village dared to try and challenge Konoha's authority.
Just as he was thinking, the First, Second, and Third Raikage, who had been catching up from behind, all appeared.
"This is bad!" The three Raikage had just stopped, and the First Raikage's face immediately turned gloomy. "The Sand has been completely wiped out!"
Hearing this, the Fourth Raikage was stunned. He instantly stood up and looked back at the First behind him. "Completely... wiped out... how is that possible?"
The number of Sand ninja wasn't small! How could they be wiped out just like that? How many ninja did Konoha dispatch? No matter how many, it was impossible to kill all the Sand ninja in one day! The Fourth Raikage shook his head. "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
As he spoke, the Third Raikage looked at him. "It's true. The latest intelligence says it was Sasuke Uchiha who made the move!"
Sasuke Uchiha! The Fourth Raikage's impression of Sasuke was profound, to say the least. Under his terrifying strength, ordinary ninja were like paper. But even so, to completely wipe out the Sand was truly unbelievable!
"Konoha is actually so crazy! To wipe out the Sand in one day!"
"No! Not one day!" the Second Raikage said. "It was less than half an hour!"
Half an hour? To wipe out the Sand was already unbelievable. How could it be less than half an hour?
The Fourth Raikage looked at the Second. "Are you saying that Sasuke Uchiha, by himself, took less than half an hour to..."
The Second nodded! "That's right!"
One person, half an hour, to deal with an entire village's forces. Was that Sasuke Uchiha's combat power so terrifying? And the Sand Village had five Kage-level ninja! Could the five Kazekage working together... not even hold off Sasuke Uchiha for half an hour?
"According to our intelligence, the Sand ninja forces were first hit by a crazy large-scale attack that basically enveloped the entire ninja force."
"Laser bombardment, meteor showers, one after another. Ordinary ninja were like ants, easily annihilated!"
Just from the words, one could tell what a terrifying scene the Sand ninja had faced at that time. The Fourth Raikage stared blankly ahead.
Four great ninja villages besieging Konoha. It hadn't even officially started, and one ninja village was already annihilated. This was a considerable blow to the upcoming battle! Were the remaining three ninja villages really a match for Konoha?
Konoha had only dispatched one Sasuke. One had to know that Konoha still had many powerful individuals. The Sixth Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki, was also not to be underestimated. As the jinchuriki of all nine Tailed Beasts, he was not just the Nine-Tails jinchuriki. Although he lacked the body of the Ten-Tails, he possessed its complete chakra.
Since Sasuke Uchiha could do it, then Naruto Uzumaki certainly could as well. In other words, Naruto Uzumaki could also annihilate a ninja village by himself. It seemed they had the advantage in numbers, but was that really the case?
"And there's another piece of news!"
Hearing the word "news," the Fourth Raikage asked a little cautiously, "Could it be that the Mist has also been wiped out?" Since the Sand had been dealt with, the Mist probably wouldn't be much trouble either. After all, besides the Sand, the second weakest was the Mist. The Mist's Sixth Mizukage had even been abducted to Konoha, leaving five Mizukage to manage the overall situation of the village. And the Sixth Mizukage, Haku, was Sasuke's person. In order to help the Sixth Mizukage regain control of the village, it was also very possible that Sasuke would directly make a move and wipe out the Mist's ninja forces.
"No! It's not the Mist, it's Konoha!"
"Something happened in Konoha?" The Fourth Raikage's eyes lit up. If it really was something happening in Konoha, then that would be great for him.
"Something happened, but it's not a bad thing. For Konoha, it's actually a good thing!"
A good thing? What good thing could happen at this time?
"Konoha's new Hokage has appeared!"
New Hokage? The Fourth Raikage was a little confused. There could be another new Hokage? Was this serious?
"Sasuke Uchiha has become the second Hokage of Konoha. He is now the Hokage of Konoha Village, just like Naruto Uzumaki!"
"Two Hokages in one village!"
This was a big deal. Sasuke with the title of Hokage and without it were two completely different matters. The former could lead to a surge in morale just because Sasuke had become Hokage. And Sasuke becoming the Hokage of Konoha was also a warning to other ninja villages: dare to make a move, and you will be at odds with Sasuke Uchiha...
