With the last stubborn Jiraiya also chose to surrender.
The entire Konoha Shinobi army completely gave up resistance.
This time, Kuzan's thunderous blitz ended with the surrender and capture of Konoha Village.
With Kuzan's order, the snakes from Ryūchi Cave, together with the ninja army from Sound Village, Orochimaru, Tsunade and others, began to clean up the battlefield.
Jiraiya was captured alive.
In the end, the ninjas who were still stubborn were also suppressed.
The other ninjas, Clan, soon surrendered to Kuzan.
Kuzan ordered Orochimaru to lead the ninja army of Sound Village, sweep the entire Konoha Village, and suppress the remaining forces that still refused to accept with absolute strength.
He also ordered Tsunade to gather the senior officials of Konoha Village, elders, patriarchs of major families, and elite ninjas.
As for Kuzan himself, he made great strides towards the direction of the Hokage building.
Originally, it was guarded by Anbu members directly under Hokage.
But at this moment, Anbu was almost wiped out, and the few remaining were also imprisoned.
Kuzan naturally walked up without hindrance.
Pushing open the door of Hokage's office, Kuzan calmly walked to Hokage's office seat, and then sat down.
Is this, the throne of Hokage?
It seems that it is nothing more than that.
Kuzan smiled slightly and looked up out of the window.
At this moment, Orochimaru and Tsunade, the orthodox subordinates are sweeping and rectifying the entire Konoha Village.
Konoha Village has fallen just like that.
This made Kuzan himself feel incredible.
Although he originally attacked with the lightning speed and tactics of blitz warfare, he never thought that it would be so smooth and fast.
The root cause is that Sarutobi Hiruzen is not in Konoha Village, and Konoha Village has no leader, so it is difficult to gather the most effective defense and counterattack force.
The second reason is that Konoha Village has indeed declined to its lowest point at the moment.
Two of the legendary Sannin had surrendered to him.
Root, Anbu, the Sarutobi clan, and the Shimura clan all suffered heavy losses in the previous battle with Kuzan, so they didn't have much power left.
There are not many forces that are truly loyal to Sarutobi Hiruzen and resist to the death.
The third reason is that those ninjas who were able to play a major role all chose to fight passively.
Such as Hatake Kakashi, Might Guy, Yamato, Yuhi Kurenai and others.
These were originally the backbone of Konoha Village, but was frantically paddling for fish in this battle, blatantly retreating from responsibility and avoiding the battle.
The fourth reason is that the major families are also dissatisfied with Sarutobi Hiruzen, and they no longer have the determination and will to fight desperately and protect the village.
This makes the power of these families, because most of them will not go all out to fight to the death.
Of course, the last is the most important point.
Kuzan's blitz tactics are too swift and violent, plus Orochimaru, Tsunade, and the group of snakes that gathered the power of Sound Village and Ryūchi Cave, their own powerful strength already possesses overwhelming terror.
All of these factors added up, and a big event that shocked the entire ninja world happened.
Kuzan's Blitzkonoha Battle directly defeated the entire Konoha Village within half a day, making Konoha Village surrender and fall
certainly.
Kuzan was not so relaxed either.
Because, it's one thing to beat Konoha Village, it's quite another to really completely conquer it.
The so-called lean camel is bigger than the horse.
Konoha Village is, after all, the joint creation of the ninja gods Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.
In almost most of the time, it is the most powerful force in the entire ninja world.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen made a fuss, and now the power has declined significantly, it is by no means a power that can be manipulated by others.
In Konoha Village, there are still families with the largest number, the strongest strength, and the deepest background in the entire ninja world, ninjas, hidden forces.
From people like Hatake Kakashi, Might Guy, Yamato, and Kurenai Yuhi, to the three major families of Ino–Shika–Chō, the Aburame family, and the Inuzuka family.
Then come to the various forces that are either in the open or hidden in the dark.
It is still difficult for Kuzan to convince all of them.
Suppressing such things by force, first of all, cannot completely conquer Konoha Village, and secondly, it does not conform to Kuzan's style.
If he had to be on guard against the civil strife in Konoha Village and these ninja families at any time to launch a rebellion, it would be a burden for Kuzan.
In Hokage's office, Kuzan also began to think about his future plans.
But no matter what, the news that Kuzan blitzed Konoha Village and caused the entire Konoha Village to completely surrender within half a day quickly spread throughout the ninja world.
All of a sudden, all the ninja world was shocked.
This news is no less than earth-shattering.
In particular, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was still negotiating at Cloud Shinobi Village, suddenly heard the news, his pupils dilated instantly, his mouth opened, and he wanted to speak in a murmur, but he couldn't speak.
His face was flushed red, and his whole body trembled violently, crumbling to the ground.
finally.
In front of Fourth Raikage, Sarutobi Asuma, Nara Shikaku and others, Sarutobi Hiruzen's body crashed to the ground, and he passed out completely.
He fell into the last and deepest despair
When I came out to negotiate with Cloud Shinobi Village, I had already signed an agreement and planned to team up with Sand Shinobi, Cloud Shinobi's power and Kirigakure to fight to the death and revenge.
However, who would have imagined that it would only take a few days.
My home has been stolen.
What about Konoha Village?
What about Konoha Village, who holds the position of power and keeps the Hokage throne?
All of a sudden it fell into Kuzan's hands completely?
Thinking of Kuzan sitting in his Hokage office, sitting in his Hokage throne, giving orders, and taking charge of the entire Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen was furious, desperate to death, and finally the humiliation, grievance, and depression many years ago broke out at the same time, Completely passed out.
Both Sarutobi Asuma and Nara Shikaku were shocked and unbelievable.
But seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen passed out, the two hurried up to help him up.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen has no self-awareness, and his body is limp like a walking dead.
The two could only bid farewell to Fourth Raikage temporarily, and returned to their room with Sarutobi Hiruzen, and put them on the bed to have a good rest.
Sarutobi Asuma and Nara Shikaku sat opposite each other, silent for a while.
after a long time.
Sarutobi Asuma opened his mouth and said, "Shikaku, what should I do?"
"In the current situation, we are simply in a desperate situation, and no matter what we do, there will be no good results"
"Going back to Konoha Village?"
"How could Mizukage Kuzan let us go?"
"As the patriarch of the Nara clan, you may still be treated with leniency.
"But my father and I will never end well"
"But what if you don't go back?"
"Stay under the fence of Cloud Shinobi Village, be an exiled ninja, suffer all kinds of humiliation and blind eyes?"
"Or, a complete defection, becoming a rebellious ninja wandering in the ninja world?"
Nara Shikaku also sighed.
"This situation is indeed unpredictable."
"Who would have thought that Mizukage Kuzan would be so decisive and ruthless."
"I thought he would contact other big countries, especially Iwagakure, to check and balance our alliance with Cloud Shinobi Village, but unexpectedly, he would directly attack Konoha Village with a Blitzkonoha."
"Moreover, the entire village was captured in less than half a day."
"In this way, we are indeed homeless..."
Sarutobi Asuma said: "Shikaku, you have always been the staff officer and military advisor of Konoha Village. At this time, you must think of a way."
Nara Shikaku couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
At this time, do you think that I am a military adviser and staff officer?
When your father Sarutobi Hiruzen formulated the policy of invading Mist Shinobi and provoking again and again, he only discussed with Shimura Danzō, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura, but he never approached me or asked for my opinion.
Even so, Nara Shikaku didn't show anything.
He thought for a moment, and gradually calmed down.
"Thinking about it carefully, even if Mizukage Kuzan really defeated Konoha Village, it would definitely not be easy for him to completely surrender the village."
"After all, Konoha Village has been passed down for so many years. The centipede is dead but not stiff, and the heritage is still there."
"What's more, although the ninjas and families in the village may not be 100% loyal to Lord Hokage, they may not be 100% loyal to Mizukage Kuzan immediately."
"If he wants to completely appease and suppress Konoha Village, the only way is to send Kirigakure, his most trusted ninja army, but this will cause the army to divide into two groups, and it will be divided between the two major ninja villages. Come on, even the current Kirigakure can't do it."
"Taking a step back, if he really did this, then Kirigakure will inevitably have an empty rear, and will become the target of a big country like Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure."
"Here in Konoha Village, he will also face Konoha's internal rebellion and external attacks. Internal and external troubles make him in a hurry."
Sarutobi Asuma was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "It does make sense."
"Then, if you were that Mizukage-sama, Shikaku, what would you do?"
Nara Shikaku said: "I wouldn't say I conquered Konoha Village."
"Of course, this is only a superficial approach."
"I will support a puppet that I fully trust to rule Konoha Village, and this person is recognized and acceptable by Konoha Village ninjas themselves."
"In this way, it seems that Konoha Village is still Konoha Village, which can maintain peace and stability on the surface, but in fact, it has already fallen into the hands of me and Kirigakure.
Sarutobi Asuma frowned: "This is indeed a very powerful method."
"However, does such a candidate really exist?"
Nara Shikaku sighed: "Of course"
"who?"
"Of course Tsunade."
Sarutobi Asuma was shocked.
indeed.
Who is Tsunade?
The ninja god who created Konoha Village, the granddaughter of First Hokage Senju Hashirama.
Blood relatives of Second Hokage Senju Tobirama.
Even in name, it cannot be erased no matter what, the direct disciple of Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
In terms of bloodline, in terms of origin, her roots are too deep, and no one from Konoha Shinobi can compare with her.
In terms of strength, she is one of the legendary Sannin, who sweeps the ninja world with her strange power, and is recognized as the strongest female ninja in the ninja world, not one of them.
In terms of fame, her name of Princess Tsunade has been spread all over the ninja world, and everyone knows it, and she is also known as the number one medical ninja in the ninja world, and the reputation of a medical master.
On qualifications, on contacts, on ability...
There is no one who can surpass the existence of Tsunade.
Maybe so to speak.
If Tsunade hadn't defected, and if she wanted to, then after Sarutobi Hiruzen, this Hokage's throne would have been absolutely hers.
So, compared to Jiraiya, compared to Shimura Danzō, compared to Hatake Kakashi, all of them are much more legitimate.
Sarutobi Asuma thought of this, and immediately understood what Nara Shikaku meant.
Kuzan uses Tsunade as the new Hokage of Konoha Village, whether it is the ninja or the family of Konoha Village, he will not be unconvinced at all.
While she did defect before, she only betrayed Sarutobi Hiruzen, not Konoha Village.
Once she takes control of Konoha Village, Konoha is still the same Konoha on the bright side.
But in fact, it has completely become a vassal of Kuzan and a part of Kirigakure's command
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Asuma couldn't help but break out in cold sweat
"If this is the case, it will really be beyond redemption..."
Nara Shikaku thought to himself, that would be a disaster for you and your father Sarutobi Hiruzen.
It's no different for other Konoha Village ninjas and clans.
He did.
Sarutobi Hiruzen as Hokage, Tsunade as Hokage, or Kuzan himself as Hokage, does it make any difference to the vast majority of ninjas, commoners, and clans in Konoha Village?
Even, Tsunade and Kuzan may do ten times better than Sarutobi Hiruzen.
In this way, in the long run, Konoha Village may return to life instead.
Of course, he can't say this clearly, otherwise he will be in crisis.
Now the Sarutobi father and son must be stabilized. If I have the opportunity to return to Konoha Village, I can completely turn against each other and surrender to Kuzan directly.
It can save the lives of all the clansmen.
Nara Shikaku also has a wife, children, family members, clansmen, and friends.
He didn't want to sacrifice his life for the corrupt, dark, notorious, and probably dying Sarutobi Hiruzen.
at this time.
Sarutobi Hiruzen let out a soft sigh, and slowly opened his eyes.
Sarutobi Asuma rushed forward: "Father..."
"How are you doing?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help shedding old tears: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it."
"Is it going to end like this in the end?"
"Damn bastard Kuzan, you can do it so terribly, so viciously."
"Konoha Village, my Konoha Village..."
"My Hokage Throne..."
At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have fallen into complete despair, and his spirit became a little abnormal.
