Chapter 54 - Goro's plan

Seven days later, news about my squad arriving at Iwagakure safely reached to the whole Konohagakure. This news shocked all the Konoha top management.

They spent almost every Anbu available, most of Hyuga clan shinobi and sensors to find just a couple of Iwa shinobi kids. But conclusively, they couldn't capture, let alone didn't even see a glimpse shadow of Iwa kids.

This just shamed Konoha too much, especially Anbu. This event created an excellent opportunity for Danzo to propose building another secret division, which is much stronger and capable than Anbu.

Before, Danzo decided to let his dream of Hokage go and support Hiruzen to the fullest. But the more and more he works with Hiruzen, he disliked the way Hiruzen does.

He hated how Hirzuen gave all remaining Uzushiogakure resources to their one descendent girl, instead of securing them as Konoha's properties.

He hated Hiruzen for making a Peace Treaty with Suna after just a few apology gifts.

He hated how Hiruzen hiding like a little b*tch to lure for stupid old stone Onoki.

He now hated Hiruzen for making Anbu this shit, as they couldn't even capture a couple of kids.

Slowly with his Konoha superior complex, Danzo thought he has to step up and save Konoha from Hiruzen's foolish dream.

As Jounin Commander, Danzo had a bit of authority to control Konoha Shinobi. But at the end of the day, all Konoha shinobi still will obey the Hokage Hiruzen more than him.

That's why he decided to create his own elite force like Anbu to Hiruzen.

(Konoha camp in Land of Rain)

Sounds of angry roar could be heard from a thousand miles along with a giant earthquake. It was from Tsunade after hearing Dan and Nawaki's death, and their killers escaped safely.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru smartly left the camp before Tsuande starts her berserk mode.

"HEYYYYAAAAAA! DAMN YOU!!!!! HIRUZEN, YOU OLD FOX, YOU DEAD WHEN I GO BACK.

AND I WILL FIND YOU IWA BASTARDS AND TEAR INTO PIECES!!!"

After her berserk mode, almost 90% of Konoha shinobi, who were in the camp, are heavily injured. From then on, nobody messed with Tsunade, and she was regarded as the strongest among legendary Sannin in the Konoha shinobi circle.

(time skip)

------------------

It has been roughly 3 months since that hellish mission at Konoha. Since then, I have been staying in Iwagakure, trying my best to make excuses to stay away from the battlefield.

I have been training the lighting style constantly. I can electrify people, 5m around me with ease. My speed also paced up greatly.

Of course, I haven't forgotten about my signature jutsu(Earth-style version of Kimimaro's fifth dance) quest. I still have about 3 years to finish this quest. Since I am Jounin now, it will be laughable that I don't have signature jutsu on my own.

I heard that in the frontline, there is one Konoha crazy bitch woman killing our shinobi like a mad dog and shouting my name to call me out every single day.

Now I don't even need to think to know who this is. It is an almighty Tsunade. Since she didn't witness her lover's death right in front of her like canon, in this timeline, she doesn't have hemophobia.

Although I can escape from her anytime since I have eagle summon, but I don't want to face her with current me if possible. She might pull some crazy stunt or might do unforeseen shits on me.

There is also money digger Kakuzu, whom I have to worry about too. He might kill me before I even know.

Anyway, battlefields are still a scary place for me as always. I already used all of my Jounin privileges to take a break from the war until now. But now I have no more cards to use. I will definitely be ordered to join the frontline within the next week for sure.

What a pain in the ȧss!

(Onoki's office)

"Amegakure asked to be allied with us, as expected. So what should we do, Tsuchikage-sama?" Goro (the ex-explosion corps head) asked Onoki.

"Well, we waited quietly for Konoha to make big moves for 3 months now. Konoha hasn't done anything but strengthening their defense and voting for the next Hokage election. I didn't believe Hiruzen's death, but now I am starting to think otherwise.

What if Hiruzen actually dead or heavily injured somehow, and we are just wasting our valuable opportunities to crush Konoha?" Onoki told his opinion to everyone.

Everyone in the rooms showed their thoughtful expression. Konoha indeed showed signs of panicking when Hiruzen's death news was circulating. They haven't done anything, but only defend, defend, and defend. Now they are doing the election for the new Hokage.

After 5 minutes of thought, Goro showed his suggestion.

"How about this, we first agree to ally with Amegakure. Then we tell them to attack Konoha first, to see if Konoha really planted a big trap hole or not.

We will just wait and see the result. If this is all Konoha's scheme then, Amegakure will suffer in place of us.

If Hiruzen really died and Konoha sure is without a leader, we will ȧssist Amegakure to crush Konoha. After that, we will backstab Amegakure and take their land along with Konoha."

Goro's plan was to use Amegakure as a bait to test Konoha and ultimately backstab Amegakure after dealing with Konoha, and occupy their land and resources.

This ringed like music to Onoki's ear, who loved backstabbing.

"Alright. Not a bad one. If anyone has another idea? No?

Okay, then we will use Goro's strategy.

Tell Amegakure that we will accept their proposal only if they attack Konoha first.

For now, let's dismiss the meeting here."

After everyone has gone, Onoki stood up to the balcony to get fresh air. He seems to be thought and suddenly clenched his fist hard.

"This time, I will crush Konoha and those damn Uchiha bastards."
