Looking at the tense Ninja, Ōnoki asked in a deep voice.
"What was the result of the battle? What is the situation in the Land of Rain now?"
The Ninja heard this and quickly responded, "In the end, the blue-purple giant merged with the wooden figure and fought against the black-armored Nine Tails. Then, the wooden figure was directly blown apart, and the black Nine Tails didn't seem to have suffered any injuries."
"As for the current situation in the Land of Rain, please forgive me, Tsuchikage-sama, but I didn't dare to get too close. The original city has disappeared, leaving only a large pit. I don't know the specifics."
"How is this possible? How could the Nine Tails have won? Could it really be a fake?"
Ōnoki muttered to himself in disbelief. In his opinion, how could Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha lose to the Nine Tails?
It wasn't that he looked down on the Tailed Beast, but even a Tailed Beast was probably just like a biting pet in their eyes.
"Hiss—"
After thinking for a while, Ōnoki suddenly felt a headache, and his waist began to ache faintly. He once again felt that he was getting old.
After his thoughts were interrupted by the pain in his waist, Ōnoki retracted his thoughts and instead carefully looked at his son standing next to him for a while.
Under the increasingly puzzled gaze of the other party, he couldn't help but sigh, and then shook his head with disappointment.
Kitsuchi has a good personality, is very responsible, and has a strong sense of unity. His reputation in the Hidden Stone Village is also good, but his strength is a little lacking.
Kitsuchi is considered one of the top experts in the Hidden Stone Village, but if he were placed in the Shinobi World, he would be too ordinary. Nowadays, which of the Five Great Shinobi Villages doesn't have unique skills? And Kitsuchi only knows Earth Release...
Kitsuchi's face was full of black lines. After being by his father's side for so long, how could he not understand what the other party meant? He was xianqi-ing him again.
However, out of respect for the old and love for the young, Kitsuchi couldn't possibly argue with his old father, of course, not because he couldn't beat him.
Silently turning his head away, pretending he didn't see anything.
Ōnoki ignored him and looked at the Ninja opposite him with a serious expression.
"Go to the Underground Exchange and issue a reward. The content is to investigate the information about the Land of Rain. Any information is fine, and the reward can be higher."
Now that the Hidden Stone Village is experiencing a talent shortage, he is reluctant to let his own Ninja carry out such a seemingly dangerous mission.
"Understood!"
After the Ninja received the task and left, Ōnoki looked at Kitsuchi again.
"How is that kid Deidara doing now?"
Kitsuchi's face showed a bitter expression: "Still the same as before. He blew up someone else's house a few days ago and is now blowing up fish outside the village every day."
"That brat, he hasn't made any progress at all!"
Ōnoki's face darkened a bit.
Kitsuchi was also very helpless: "If you ask me, you should just loosen your mouth and acknowledge his so-called art. I feel that the little guy really wants to get your approval."
"I feel that if you keep suppressing him like this, the little guy might run away one day."
"Hmph! That kid is currently the most talented one in the Hidden Stone Village. The entire Hidden Stone Village will be on his shoulders in the future. How can his personality be so impetuous?"
"If you people were a little useful, would this old man still need to hold on to the position of Tsuchikage?"
Ōnoki glared at Kitsuchi fiercely again.
Kitsuchi's neck shrank back, only daring to mutter softly, "Isn't there Kurotsuchi? Your granddaughter is always clamoring to become the Tsuchikage."
"If she can learn Dust Release, the Tsuchikage position will definitely be hers."
Kitsuchi didn't dare to speak anymore, and Ōnoki also fell silent.
Originally, he was in a very cheerful mood because he had obtained a lot of benefits from Konoha, but after hearing today's news, he also felt quite depressed.
Most of the young Ninja now no longer know the terror of those two back then.
...
Land of Lightning, Cloud Village.
The Fourth Raikage A also received a report from the border patrol Ninja.
The impact of this battle was too great. The battle that broke out in the center of the Land of Rain was felt even at the border of the Land of Lightning.
In addition, the Shinobi World had just emerged from the shadow of war, and Cloud Village was also afraid of a sneak attack from Hidden Stone Village, so the border patrols were quite cautious.
"A giant battle of hundreds of meters? This intelligence is like it's made up."
When A saw the intelligence, his dark skin didn't show his complexion, but it was still obvious that he frowned.
He had seen the Eight Tails in a berserk state, and even the fully released Eight Tails would definitely not reach a hundred meters in size.
"After feeling the movement at the time, many people went to check the intelligence, and the descriptions were extremely similar, so this intelligence should be true."
Mabui's expression was very serious. She couldn't imagine how a giant hundreds of meters tall could fight.
Any random move would be earth-shattering.
Thinking, Mabui continued to add.
"One of them might be the Nine Tails."
"Can't you be sure?" A frowned.
"The other party was wearing something similar to black armor, and couldn't see their original appearance, but because there were nine tails behind them, there is a high probability that it was the Nine Tails."
"As for the other two, one is a blue-purple giant, and the other is a wooden figure, suspected to be made of Wood Release."
"Wood Release... I'll go find B later to ask about the Nine Tails, and you send some more intelligence personnel over to investigate the current situation inside the Land of Rain."
"Remember to hide their identities."
"Then I'll go notify them now."
After speaking, Mabui also turned and left the Raikage's office.
Inside the office, A was still frowning.
Then his figure flashed and he left his seat.
...
Land of Rain.
In one day, on the original ruins of the city in the Land of Rain, Naruto used his Dojutsu to create many simple houses for people to live in.
After all, the entire city had turned into a pit, without even a single intact brick left. On top of that, the storm clouds that had been scattered by the great battle were gathering again, and it looked like another heavy rain was on its way.
This really made Naruto feel very puzzled. What was the deal with the rain in the Land of Rain?
It just kept raining for 365 days a year, without any rhyme or reason.
"Leader, the food has been distributed."
Just as Naruto was wondering, Konan walked in from outside.
Naruto nodded and said, "The arrangements should have been made clear, right?"
Hearing this, Konan nodded.
"I have informed them that only today's food is free. Afterwards, they must complete the assigned work before they can receive food, but..."
"Quite a few of the residents who used to live more prosperous lives still have some resentment..."
