Hokage: Ryo’s Path Chapter 441

Chapter 441
The lunch prepared by Konoha for Onoki and the entire group was really fancy. However, facing such cuisine, Onoki had no appetite.
Previously, Onoki thought that he had destroyed most of the Konoha and killed countless villagers of Konoha. So, he came to Konoha to show off as a winner. He didn’t expect that Yamanaka Ryo made him see the reality clearly in just a few minutes.
Ryo had changed him from the winner to the one who needed to beg for peace and cede land to pay for it. His loss was too big.
After lunch, Konoha’s negotiation team came. After intense negotiations, the two sides finally determined the exact amount of compensation.
Neither Yamanaka Ryo nor Onoki participated during the negotiations because Onoki requested to meet Kitsuchi and Kurotsuchi.
Yamanaka Ryo thought about it and agreed to Onoki’s request.
Both Kitsuchi and Kurotsuchi were sealed by Chakra and held in Konoha prison. Originally, Orochimaru controlled Kurotsuchi, but Orochimaru couldn’t find what Iwagakure wanted from him directly, so he gave Kurotsuchi to Yamanaka Ryo and asked Yamanaka Ryo to help.
Orochimaru wanted two things. One was Onoki’s blood, and the other was the division technique developed by Nidaime Tsuchikage.
Yamanaka Ryo speculated that Orochimaru wanted Onoki’s blood to study Jinton, while Nidaime Tsuchikage’s division technique should enhance his escape ability. Orochimaru’s research was also good for him, and with his relationship with Orochimaru, he couldn’t find a reason to refuse. So, he readily agreed.
When Iwagakure saw these two conditions, they were a bit puzzled. They could understand why they wanted the division technique of Nidaime Tsuchikage, but why was Onoki’s blood required?
However, compared to other conditions, these two conditions could be said to be very generous. With a little hesitation, they agreed.
………..
In Konoha prison, Onoki saw Kitsuchi and Kurotsuchi.
Kitsuchi hadn’t changed much since he saw Kitsuchi a few days ago. However, Kurotsuchi looked much thinner and had gauze wrapped around her arms.
Seeing that they were safe and sound, Onoki was relieved. After reassuring the two, he left with Yamanaka Ryo.
On the way, Yamanaka Ryo deliberately led Onoki to the village of Konoha. The appearance of Konoha villagers working together to rebuild the village gave Onoki a significant impact.
A few moments later, ignoring his mindset, Onoki said with a severe voice, “Yamanaka Ryo, watch out for Kumogakure. They are coming soon.”
Yamanaka Ryo smiled and said, “Tsuchikage-sama, how about I invite you to see a good show later?”
“Good show? What do you mean?”
“You will know in a moment.”
The two returned to the place of negotiation, and the two sides had basically reached a consensus. Onoki took the truce agreement and swept a glance, nodding his head to indicate agreement.
Seeing that he agreed, Yamanaka Ryo also did not hesitate. He signed it very delighted. Onoki handed Nidaime Tsuchikage’s division technique to Yamanaka Ryo on the spot.
The Kunai cut his arm, leaving Yamanaka Ryo with blood.
“The money will be raised immediately when I return to Iwagakure and will be sent to Konoha. Can I leave it now?”
“Of course you can. Kakashi, you go to inform Uncle Fugaku to release those people! How about I invite you to watch the show first while I have this time, Tsuchikage-sama?”
“Good! Where should I go?”
“Just close your eyes.”
Onoki nodded and closed his eyes. Yamanaka Ryo put his hand on his shoulder, the two of them together teleported away.
………….
At the border of the Land of Fire, Yamanaka Ryo and Onoki appeared out of thin air.
“Tsuchikage-sama, we’re here! Open your eyes!”
Onoki opened his eyes and swept the surroundings, and asked, “What is this place?”
“This is the border of the Land of Fire; look at that!” Yamanaka Ryo pointed to the distance and said.
Onoki followed Yamanaka Ryo’s direction and saw a group from Kumogakure advancing in the distance.
“Isn’t that the people from Kumogakure? Yamanaka Ryo, what do you want to do?”
“Of course I’m inviting you to watch the show!”
Onoki was anxious and quickly stop, “Yamanaka Ryo, don’t be impulsive. There are thousands of Cloud Ninja and Fourth Raikage. A person can’t deal with them even if that person is Jinchuriki.”
“Do not worry! Don’t you know that I can run with space-time jutsu sometimes? Also, I don’t really care about these people.”
Onoki was dumbfounded as he looked at Yamanaka Ryo. He didn’t know what to say.
A few moments later, the ninja of Kumogakure came to the vicinity of Yamanaka Ryo and Onoki.
Yamanaka Ryo laughed and said, “Tsuchikage-sama, the show is about to start, and it will over soon. You have to open your eyes!”
After speaking, Yamanaka Ryo’s silhouette disappeared.
The Sensor Type Ninja in Kumogakure’s side found Yamanaka Ryo and Onoki not far away. The Sensor Type Ninja subconsciously thought that the two were spies of Konoha responsible for gathering information, and they were too lazy to report.
However, what made this Sensor Type Ninja shocked was that a person suddenly appeared in front of him in the next second. This person was one of the two people whom he had sensed before. This person laughed at him, and then he felt like he was flying. Next, he lost his consciousness.
The Kumogakure troops that were advancing at a rapid halt stopped. They picked up their Kunai and looked around nervously.
Just now, Yamanaka Ryo was moving too fast. No one knew what was happening. All they saw was that the Sensor Type Ninja’s head was cut in half in a split second.
Fourth Raikage complexion was ashen, and he took a defensive stance. The raging Raiton Chakra entangled around him as he looked around carefully.
“Snap–“
A snap of the finger broke the silence around.
Following the sound of the ring finger, the Ninjas of Kumogakure discovered Yamanaka Ryo. They were about to take action but found that the surrounding environment had changed.
They were in the forest, and they didn’t know why the surrounding area suddenly turned into a world of ice and snow.
Not far away, Onoki was even more stunned because, in the area where Yamanaka Ryo and Kirigakure were located, numerous ice blocks suddenly appeared, which instantly frozen an entire forest.
“ICE WORLD. FREEZE!”
Yamanaka Ryo’s voice reached the ears of everyone present. Before they could do anything to react, a thick layer of ice wrapped around them in the next second.
“RAITON – HUNDRED THOUSAND VOLTS”
Raiton Chakra was raging around Yamanaka Ryo’s body, and the frozen forest was flashing with lightning.
“Pop–“
Another snap of the fingers and the ice in the forest disappeared instantly, leaving only thousands of corpses.
In Kumogakure’s team, except for those protected by Raiton’s armor Kinoe, other people were killed in the blink of an eye.
The Fourth Raikage was stunned by everything in front of him. In just a few seconds, thousands of ninjas were killed, and only fewer than a hundred people survived.
“Rai … Raikage-sama, le… let’s go back!” Darui whispered.
The Fourth Raikage looked at the corpse of his companions. He recalled what happened to the split second just now and clenched his teeth before he said, “Gather their corpse. Let’s go!”
