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

Chapter 512 Intelligence Analysis

By this time, the Raikage had already roughly reviewed all the information.

Upon seeing the four arrive, he immediately passed on the intelligence he had to them one by one.

As for the Earth Platform, which serves as the brain of Kumogakure, its significance is self-evident.

As for the others, they are equally outstanding.

As Raikage's secretary, Mabui has assisted him in handling various complex political affairs for many years.

With her outstanding abilities and keen insight, she demonstrated extraordinary talent in intelligence gathering and analysis.

Samui and Shi, two outstanding Jonin, should not be underestimated either, as they possess unique strengths in combat experience and strategic planning.

Having these individuals participate in intelligence analysis work is undoubtedly the best option.

Before long, the four of them had quickly finished browsing through the intelligence materials in their hands.

hope broke the silence first and expressed his opinion:

"Boss, based on the information we have so far, it is certain that the operation by the Wraiths and the Ghost Legion has failed."

Samyi immediately chimed in:

"That's right, and according to our intelligence, it seems that the ninjas of Konoha Village did not directly participate in this battle."

Mabuyi, who was standing nearby, also agreed with this view and nodded slightly.

Indeed, among the numerous pieces of information, only the two points regarding the defeat of the Wraiths and the Ghost Legion and the absence of Konoha from the battle are completely consistent.

It should be noted that the Ghost Legion possesses a vast number of puppets, and their existence can be determined at a glance.

However, beyond this explicit information, the remaining intelligence requires further in-depth exploration and research.

For example, one piece of intelligence mentioned that Zenku and Miroku were besieged by the Mizukage Yagura and Onoki and eventually died.

The group discussed the news.

Some believe that whether Yagura's actions stemmed from revenge or a desire to ensure Kirigakure's strength remained intact, his decision to assassinate Zenku was entirely reasonable.

Moreover, the entire ninja world now knows about Yagura Karatachi's special ability to fly because of Kumogakure, making him the focus of attention from all sides.

Samui and Mabui exchanged a glance, and they both agreed that Yagura Gojibana must have ambushed Zenku in the past.

"In that case, the possibility of Chan Kong dying is much greater."

Mabuyi frowned and echoed:

"How dare Kirigakure so blatantly ambush Zenku? Are they truly not afraid of Pain's retaliation?"

hope paused for a moment, then calmly analyzed:

"Judging from this situation, Pain may indeed be dead. Otherwise, Kirigakure would never have dared to do this."

Upon hearing this, the Raikage couldn't help but look puzzled: "Pain is so powerful, who could kill him?"

Indeed, this is the most crucial point.

It should be noted that Pain once wiped out all of Hiruzen Sarutobi's clansmen with a single move.

How could such a terrifying being be killed? Everyone fell into deep thought.

Just then, the quiet atmosphere was broken by hope's sudden action.

Suddenly, he raised one hand and shouted alertly, "Who!?"

Before the words were finished, a white head slowly emerged from the ground.

The man exclaimed softly, "Wow, that's quite perceptive. It detected my presence so quickly."

Lei Ying looked closely and immediately recognized that the white-clad figure in front of him belonged to the same race as the ones that had appeared before.

His eyes widened in anger, and he shouted sternly, "It's you again! What are you planning to do here this time?"

Ah Fei pretended to be frightened and said:

"Oh dear, that's so rough. I was just trying to deliver important information to you with good intentions."

However, the people of Kumogakure were not interested in what Abi said at all. Their eyes were fixed on Abi, full of vigilance.

Seeing this, Ah Fei felt a sense of utter boredom and could only helplessly say:

"On that battlefield in Iwagakure, Uchiha Senyao led a full five thousand Konoha ninjas in a fierce battle against eight thousand Iwagakure troops! In the end, Konoha emerged victorious!"

At this point, Afei paused, then continued his description:

"Uchiha Chiyo even burned two thousand Iwagakure ninja to death with his Fire Release technique! Even the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Rōshi, died in this battle."

"Iwagakure has been defeated, and it won't be long before those 5,000 elite Konoha troops are heading this way!"

Before he could finish speaking, Afei stopped waiting for Raikage and the others to respond and, with a flash, burrowed straight into the ground like an eel.

Its speed was so fast that the people of Kumogakure had no time to react.

Seeing this, hope quickly closed his eyes and concentrated on using his unique sensory abilities to investigate the surrounding situation.

A moment later, he opened his eyes and said to Raikage:

"Boss, that pale-faced guy has escaped."

Raikage's expression turned serious. He frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Meanwhile, the others looked at each other, exchanging glances.

He secretly wondered whether the information Afei had just given him was true or false.

After a long silence, Tu Tai broke the deadlock and slowly spoke:

"In my opinion, at least half of this intelligence is credible."

"After all, they have always been enemies with Konoha, and fierce conflicts often occur between them."

"Moreover, judging from the various signs we have so far, it is indeed possible that Iwagakure has suffered heavy losses and has been forced to retreat."

After listening to Tsuchikage's analysis, Raikage nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with his point of view.

Because in Raikage's view, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Even if they weren't friends, it's impossible for them to deliberately protect Konoha.

If what Afei said is true, their next decision will be very important.

The three people outside all agreed with the idea that Tu Tai had given them.

Samui's face showed a hint of doubt: "A single fire can kill two thousand Iwagakure ninjas. Is Senyo really that strong?"

She was clearly skeptical of this claim.

At this moment, Raikage turned to Xi, who was standing to the side, and said:

"Go and fetch Killer Bee here." Upon receiving the order, Hsieh immediately turned and left the tent.

Not long after, Killer Bee, with his unique, indifferent gait, followed closely behind Hi.

At this moment, Killer Bee looked radiant and full of energy, secretly thinking that he would finally not be trapped here this time.

Clearly, on the way here, Hsieh had already told Kirabi the whole story in detail.

So, as soon as Killer Bee arrived, he couldn't wait to speak:

"Brother, that Uchiha Senyou Fire Release technique is really powerful. Last time he used Fire Release, he burned more than five hundred of our brothers to death in one go!"

However, upon hearing this, the Raikage's already furrowed brows furrowed even more deeply:

"Can burning five hundred people to death be the same as burning two thousand people to death?"

Seeing that the Raikage seemed to be about to get angry, Killer Bee quickly changed his tune and explained:

"If the information we have is correct, in my opinion, Qianyao must have used fire jutsu several times in succession to burn those two thousand people to death in total."

"Otherwise, none of us from last time would have come back alive."

From a normal logical reasoning perspective, such an inference is entirely plausible.

After all, Yunyin could never have guessed that Qianyao had deliberately held back when they fought last time.

The people sitting in this room right now are all high-ranking and powerful figures in the Hidden Cloud Village. The most pressing issue facing them is how to make a decision.

Should we launch another attack without hesitation, or hold back for now and observe how the situation develops?

"Raikage, what should we do if we choose to continue observing?"

"Then Konoha Village will most likely adopt a tactical strategy of defeating them one by one."

"At that time, we will be in an extremely passive situation and lose the advantages we originally held."

"If we want to take the initiative, now is the best time!"

Tu Tai delivered a concluding speech with unwavering conviction.

The battlefield in the land of rivers is too far away from here.

Therefore, given the current situation, it is almost impossible for the Hidden Cloud Sect to obtain information about Senyou's awe-inspiring Susanoo form in such a short period of time.

Although they had realized that Iwagakure had suffered heavy losses and was forced to retreat, this only made them realize that they had lost some of their initiative.

Even in the face of such a situation, they still firmly believed that their strength was too great for Konoha Village to easily contend with.

After all, they not only had a large number of people, but also brought with them incredibly powerful Jinchūriki and chakra cannons capable of turning the tide of battle.

Seeing that everyone present was inclined to continue fighting for the time being, the Raikage made a decisive decision and quickly made a final decision:

"In that case, we can't delay any longer."

"If we can successfully invade the Land of Fire before the reinforcements from Konoha arrive, then the initiative in the war will be firmly in our hands!"

"Everyone, prepare yourselves. The entire army will attack in two hours!"

"Kirabi, you are not allowed to leave the camp this time."

Upon hearing that he was not allowed to go out, Killer Bee instantly lost all his energy and said weakly:

"Understood, brother!"
