The Kirigakure envoy looked confused, instinctively thinking that Rasa was angry at his shameless words and was speaking sarcastically. But unexpectedly, Rasa really started mobilizing troops.
"He actually took action?" The envoy was stunned. "Why? It couldn't be that my words moved him, right?"
How is that possible! After all, what I said was completely empty. Any mature ninja can tell that what I said was just political rhetoric.
So why did Rasa decisively start taking action?
Not only the envoy thought that, but the Suna shinobis also had the same thoughts.
"The Kazekage must have discovered some opportunity and decisively launched an operation!"
"Praise the Kazekage!"
"We are foolish and lack strategic thinking. We can't even begin to understand the reason behind the Kazekage's sudden decision to take action..."
"Well, the Kazekage has great foresight. As long as we obey, what's there to hesitate about?"
"That's right!"
"With Fourth Kazekage-sama present, we Suna shinobis are invincible!"
Every Suna shinobi is filled with fighting spirit, and under the command of Rasa, they quickly take action.
It must be said that the words spoken by the envoy are quite precise. Konoha's defense forces on the front line against Sunagakure are the weakest, especially since Kumogakure put Konoha in a dangerous situation and Sunagakure are just stubbornly holding onto his position.
This led Tsunade to decide to mobilize some of the forces from the Sunagakure front to support the battlefield against Kumogakure.
At that time, this was the correct decision. Konoha itself had limited manpower that could be mobilized, so it was enough to send a few elite shinobi to confront the Suna shinobis.
However, this time, Sunagakure suddenly took action, catching Konoha off guard.
They pushed the front line forward for dozens of miles, defeated Konoha's defense forces, and expanded their territory significantly...
It must be said that Konoha is indeed a powerful village, with abundant supplies for the front line. But under Sunagakure's rapid attacks, they couldn't even destroy the supplies. All of these supplies became the spoils of war for Sunagakure.
This battle gave them abundant war spoils. This made the Suna shinobis couldn't help but cheer up.
"Truly worthy of being the Kazekage!"
"The Kazekage-sama, with his strategic cunning, reveals weaknesses as a Supreme Being would in battle."
"Seizing the opportunity and striking with a single blow, our losses are minimal, but the victories are particularly great... This is the strategy of our Fourth Kazekage, Rasa-sama!"
Meanwhile Rasa roared in his mind: 'I was very cowardly at that time, but now that Natsuo is gone, I dare to take advantage of the situation. Stop imagining things!'
However, Rasa is still worried about Natsuo's whereabouts. Although he doesn't know under what circumstances Natsuo will take action against Sunagakure, the tactics he launched emphasize a blitzkrieg!
Quick attack, quick end. After the fight, he changed his fierce offensive tactics and started building fortifications in place again...
'I occupy only a small area, Konoha shouldn't make a big fuss to attack me, right?' Rasa thought. 'After all, the fight against Kumogakure and Kirigakure is more intense. They shouldn't send Natsuo...'
Jiraiya, Tsunade, Danzo...
Although they are all well-known experts, Rasa believes that he can hold his own in a one-on-one fight against them. After all, if it weren't for Orochimaru relying on Kimimaro, who was at the Kage level, it wouldn't have been so easy to kill him. And Orochimaru has the loudest reputation among the Sannin, so he shouldn't be weaker than Jiraiya and Tsunade in comparison, right?
"As long as Natsuo doesn't make a move, everything else is fine!" Rasa calmed himself down and walked towards the nearby house.
After entering the house he met Gaara, Temari and Kankuro...
When Temari and Kankuro saw Rasa arrive they immediately greeted him.
"Kazekage-sama!"
"Temari, how is your training going?" Rasa showed a gentle smile.
Temari raised her head confidently and said: "Please rest assured, Kazekage-sama. My Wind Release has been prepared and ready for battle. I can fight when called upon, and I will surely win. Please consider me for the next battle..."
"Wait, who asked you about that?" Rasa couldn't help but interrupt, "I was asking about your training as a bride!"
"Huh?" Temari was a little confused. 'Training as a bride? Come to think of it, Father did ask me to undergo bride training before. But now that the war has started, who cares about bride training?'
"Hey, with you like this, how can I feel at ease?" Rasa looked at Temari's appearance and couldn't help but feel distressed. "Even if a World War breaks out, you're still a girl."
"Bride training should be your top priority, everything else is secondary."
'That's right! Getting married is the most important thing! If it weren't for Natsuo taking a liking to you, I might have been killed by Natsuo!' Rasa thought.
"Um, Kazekage-sama..." Temari hesitated.
"Just call me Father."
Temari, Kankuro: "...?"
Their upbringing in Sunagakure has always been strict, even on informal occasions, they had to address Rasa as Kazekage-sama... Although it is normal. After all, he is a father who can be ruthless and play tricks with his own child! Temari and the others have gotten used to Rasa's style, but... Is something wrong with him?
"In any case, bride training must be done well, especially in the arts of seducing your husband. If you can't control your husband, just pretend to be innocent and obey him." Rasa kept reminding a few times.
It would be best if you could master the art of seducing your husband to the point of convincing Natsuo to move to our Village. If you can't do it, then pretend to be a good girl and make Natsuo fall completely in love with you.
After a few more instructions, Rasa hurriedly left.
The war has started, and as the Kazekage, his work is actually very heavy. Being able to take the time to give a few reminders was already the limit.
He left as if nothing had happened, leaving Temari and the others confused.
"Hey, father has his eyes on some powerful shinobi and wants you to marry him?" Kankuro said strangely. "But do we have eligible young people in Sunagakure worth considering?"
"How would I know?" Temari said helplessly. "It seems like there aren't many people who can withstand a hit from my fan..."
"I actually think it might be because my father doesn't like me and wants to marry me off quickly."
"That's also a possibility." Kankuro pondered seriously.
Beside him, Gaara's body stiffened, he slightly lowered his head, and his body trembled slightly. He suddenly remembered the plan to destroy Konoha back then. When he regained control of his body, he discovered that Shukaku's entire body was trembling.
It even indirectly led to him having a good night's sleep for several days.
And at that time, when he confided everything to Shukaku, although he didn't know much about the situation back then, according to Shukaku, the man who defeated him easily and made him swallow a Tailed Beast Ball seemed to be quite young.
"Perhaps, it might not be someone from the village..." Gaara suddenly spoke up.
This surprised Temari and Kankuro, who then looked at Gaara with astonishment. Gaara was actually interested in their own sister's eccentricities? It was simply a miracle!
...
Sunagakure launched a lightning-fast attack and greatly invaded a piece of territory. But Tsunade, apart from angrily cursing three times, couldn't do much. Although she had done her best, the influence of the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan had prevented her from completely dominating all the power in Konoha.
Especially with the deteriorating situation on the Kumogakure side, Tsunade had to send Jiraiya to support the battlefield against Kumogakure, further dispersing the power in her hands.
On the other hand, although Sunagakure had expanded significantly, they once again assumed a defensive posture.
Therefore, Tsunade only sends more supplies and a small group as reinforcements on the battlefield against Sunagakure. But that's about it.
After all, four of the five major nations have already started fighting among themselves. No one knows if Iwagakure will launch a war against Konoha at some point. We must be prepared for defense.
Even if Sunagakure has gained some advantages, Tsunade is unable to allocate too many troops to deal with it.
"Sunagakure is just a minor annoyance. Even if they occupy more territory, so what?" Tsunade understands clearly. "Once Konoha defeats the other shinobi villages, we can easily drive them out."
"In comparison, Kumogakure, with its aggressive offensive, and the Mizukage personally joining the battle, are the real threats!"
That's why Konoha's response is minimal, while the morale of the Suna shinobis is high.
"Look, even Konoha is unable to handle our Fourth Kazekage!"
"Long live the Fourth Kazekage!"
...
Meanwhile Natsuo stays quietly at the camp, 'working' hard to revive the Uchiha clan.
In the tactical meetings, Natsuo almost completely renounces his right to make suggestions, and implies: 'Since Danzo-sama has experience in battle, we should follow his example.' It makes people wonder if Natsuo has even looked at the nearby maps...
It's also unclear if it's a reciprocal gesture, but Danzo doesn't give Natsuo any special orders either. Most of the orders are usually about patrolling the camp, which is a safe and easy task. A small portion requires going out, but not too far.
And now...
Danzo glanced at the confidential information sent by the Root, took a deep breath, and a touch of arrogance flashed in his eyes.
"The Uchiha clan should not exist in this world!"
Then he gave Natsuo a mission that was far away from the camp. Natsuo didn't mind and accepted it directly.
After setting off with his own wives, he squinted his eyes and glanced at the several figures he sensed behind him.
"It seems that Elder Danzo can't hold back anymore." Natsuo immediately smiled.
Perfect! He was also tired of pretending! Together with his wives they continued to advance.
Suddenly, Natsuo stopped in surprise.

[Offspring +1, the comprehensive potential evaluation is 191, you obtain Chakra +17, Mangekyo Sharingan Technique: Yumenso.]
"Why are so many outstanding offspring suddenly appearing?"
"Who gave birth to them?"
Natsuo was a little confused.
