The One-Tailed Shukaku didn't show off its arrogance for long before it was stopped by Minato and the Sealing Squad.
As a person who studies time and space ninjutsu, Minato also has a high talent in sealing techniques.
The Flying Thunder God Technique is actually a reverse summoning technique plus a sealing technique, which requires extremely strong spatial perception ability to practice.
Minato has other skills, but even if he has a talent for sealing techniques, he only learned it with the help of his wife.
He has attended many advanced sealing courses in the Whirlpool Country, and the sealing techniques of the entire Konoha have improved rapidly after the destruction of the Whirlpool Country.
This time, facing Shukaku, he relied on various Flying Thunder God transfers and the second stage of Flying Thunder God to directly limit the explosion area of the Tailed Beast Ball.
Then cooperate with the sealing team to gradually infuse the sealing ritual spell into Shukaku's body.
In the end, the big raccoon let out a miserable roar unwillingly and was forced back in. On the way back, it was hit by several big balls, which made it very angry.
Because no matter how you look at it, this ball looks like a replica of the Tailed Beast Ball, damn humans.
From the moment Shukaku was stuffed back, the war was basically over.
Chiyo desperately burst out all her fighting power and destroyed nearly half of the puppets at the cost of snatching the monk Bonfuku out. The Jinchūriki must not fall into the hands of Konoha.
The remaining Sand Ninja leaders and the defeated soldiers were ready to fight to the death. Opposite them were the Konoha people who were watching eagerly.
Just before the final battle of destruction began, Chiyo and Ebizo walked into the middle of the war.
"The Sand Ninja admits defeat. We want to negotiate."
This made the third generation extremely disgusting.
It would be fine if we could defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, but the most troublesome thing is when there is still a lot of resistance.
Looking at the battlefield with heavy casualties and the possibility that more Konoha ninjas would fall, Hiruzen began to hesitate.
If Konoha really wins a tragic victory by annihilating them all, at least one or two strong men of his level will die, and then Konoha will really have no spare energy to deal with the other three countries.
But I was unwilling to give up the fight. The humiliation of being beaten at my doorstep could not be wiped out simply by not fighting.
At this moment, Ninja was in hesitation. He didn't have the courage to start another battle. Too many people had died.
Mountains of corpses and seas of blood are not enough to describe them. I don't know how many villages' futures were ruined on Platycodon Mountain.
Is it really worth it to vent that anger...
The moment Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated, the outcome was already decided. His body was a little hunched, and the Sandaime looked really old on the battlefield.
"The war is over!!!"
The negotiations for Sand Village's defeat and surrender... began. This also meant the end of the Third Ninja World War.
Chapter 67 Peace Agreement?
The war is over...
As Sarutobi Hiruzen's sad and complicated words spread across the battlefield, the smell of gunpowder dissipated a lot.
It was obvious that during the previous fight, his blood was boiling and his whole body was full of strength, and he wanted to cut the opponent into pieces.
But when this sentence spread throughout the battlefield, everyone felt powerless.
The feeling of loss made many ninjas who joined the war in the later stages feel confused.
The kunai in their hands seemed to be of a thousand pounds' weight, and it was very difficult to hold it tightly. Some people even collapsed to the ground due to their legs going limp.
Fall on the blood and corpses of comrades or enemies, and let the bloody smell soak your sense of smell and vision.
That unreal feeling seemed to have torn apart time and space, and the whole world was like suddenly waking up from a nightmare.
Looking at my own face reflected in the pool of blood, I looked like a demon.
Then he touched his body as if it were unreal, and it turned out that he really survived.
Those ninjas who were filled with hatred were filled with anger and unwillingness, and they clenched the blades in their hands tightly.
Konoha suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Mount Kikyo. Many Genin from the village were urgently called to the battlefield and used their lives to delay the initial wave of charge.
The children in the ninja school were only 8 or 9 years old. Some of them could not even release ninjutsu. They were driven up with kunai in hand. This level belonged to the basic fault of the new generation of Konoha.
Uchiha Itachi was brought back from the Kirigakure battlefield by his father to participate in the final decisive battle. The shock of watching young ninja school students die one after another made his heart begin to twist.
The words "there is a price to pay for peace" were engraved in his mind, and Uchiha Takako began to awaken his thoughts.
During the war, there were also elderly retired ninjas who luckily survived, elders of the ninja clan, and so on.
These people are all here to burn off their remaining energy and to seek revenge.
Many people's best friends, family, and even parents and children have died on this land.
The feeling of hatred had soaked into their blood, bones, and hearts. Everything on their bodies, every strand of hair was filled with murderous intent.
In the end, the other party surrendered. Just like that?
So we can stop fighting if we say so? Then what about the dead people?
The desire for revenge is brewing in the hearts of some people, and it seems that the next round of conflict is ready to break out at any time.
It's not just the winning side like Konoha that is like this. The Sand Village side was badly defeated, but there were still many ninjas who wished to die together with the other side.
Hatred is a scene that cannot be erased by both sides.
In the end, this extremely tense battlefield did not break out and was suppressed by the ninja leaders of each team.
Ninjas are tools, and tools must obey orders.
This kind of obedience to orders is something they have been trained to do since the first day they embarked on the path of becoming a ninja.
Even though he was filled with hatred, he was still unable to break free and charge towards the enemy alone.
As the defeated party, the Sand Ninjas were finally forced to drop their weapons and gather together at Chiyo's request.
At the same time, logistical supplies were also handed over, which represented a gesture of surrender.
But this does not mean that they can be slaughtered at will, because even if a ninja has no weapons, they still have chakra, ninjutsu, and forbidden techniques.
There are still a few elders and the Fourth Kazekage who have not died. The Sand Ninja who have lost everything are even more terrifying.
This is the sincerity and bargaining chip in the negotiation.
It is impossible to pin our hopes on the murderous Konoha ninjas being obedient.
What if the other party goes back on his word after they surrender? Then their willingness to be killed will become the biggest joke in the ninja world.
Betrayal and killing are eternal themes in this world.
The Konoha side finally took up arms again under the order of the commander and continued to surround this place. If the negotiations did not go smoothly, it was not impossible for the war to break out again.
So in this strange atmosphere, the two sides built a wooden house that was soundproofed and sealed using ninjutsu in the middle of the battlefield and began negotiations.
The top leaders of both sides no longer have the mood to continue the fight and want to end the war as soon as possible.
Unlike the middle and lower level ninjas who are full of hatred, these high level ninjas are actually very weak in hatred.
There are only interests between countries. This time, the Sand Village lost the bet, that's all, but they still have the capital so they have to pay the price.
Konoha also needs an explanation and an example to shock other countries.
After a fierce verbal battle, the exhausted Third Hokage finally took a step back under the rogue-like confrontation of the Sand Village.
After all, if a fight really starts, those who wear shoes will lose to those who go barefoot in terms of mentality.
Danzo rarely said anything. Having lost important combat power, he no longer had the power to influence the outcome of the battle, so he could only accept the result.
Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En thought about the gaps in the village's accounts without saying a word. The surrender of the Sand Ninja was the biggest benefit at the moment.
Orochimaru was unusually calm, as if the dead Konoha ninjas had nothing to do with him. He even felt that all this was so boring and life was too fragile.
Inhuman thoughts kept flashing through my mind.
Only Minato Namikaze felt a little uncomfortable and had hatred in his heart.
Minato Namikaze is a rare normal person among the high-ranking officials in the ninja world. He does not have such lofty ideals, but he has talent, love, a desire to be strong, and hopes that the village he lives in will become a better place.
I feel anger towards my enemies, affection towards my family, and not much thought about things that cannot be changed, such as world peace.
Sarutobi Hiruzen brought Minato to negotiate in order to convey the Hokage's perspective to him, hoping that the child could understand the truth sooner.
Don't be like your teacher and give up the opportunity to make the village a better place.
Because the Will of Fire was not yet mature in its early years, and there were too many dirty things among the top leaders, the three disciples saw through too many things early on.
Tsunade left the village and wandered in the ninja world. Jiraiya also began to look for the legendary child of destiny. Only Orochimaru was relatively obedient.
That’s right, Orochimaru is the more obedient one, which is really incredible.
Unfortunately, he was dragged into darkness by Danzo. Hiruzen stubbornly believed that it was Danzo who did it, rather than his good disciple himself who had a change of mind.
The only one left is Minato Namikaze. I hope this child can follow the path I have planned for him.
It was also the first time for this young man to see that human life could be converted in this way, how much a Genin was worth, and how many resources a Chunin was worth.
It's no different from kunai, shuriken, explosive talismans, food, and the like.
However, the reality and status prevented him from speaking in this negotiation. If only he had the power like the Shodaime-sama.
In the end, the few people who were unwilling to continue the dispute hastily signed a peace agreement.
Now that both sides had a way out, they began the final process.
The Sand Village officially surrendered to Konoha, stating that the disappearance of the Third Kazekage had nothing to do with Konoha, but was instigated by a third party. A joint investigation team will be established to track down the third party organization.
Chapter 68 The Will of Rain? !
He also stated that he would establish a military and commercial alliance between the Wind Kingdom and the Fire Kingdom.
The Sand Village will also have to pay a huge amount of war reparations for its attack on Konoha Village. This astronomical figure of compensation is Konoha's bottom line, and not a single cent can be less.
In a ninja village where the will of fire prevails, it would be difficult to convince most people without paying enough.
It also cannot calm the emotional hatred between most ordinary people and ninjas.
It was eventually negotiated that this huge compensation would be repaid over 13 years, plus high interest.
In addition, some special ninjutsu of the Sand Ninja Village and a large amount of desert minerals are also within the scope of compensation.
The level of ninjutsu must be at least A-level, and Orochimaru, the disciple of the Third Hokage, is responsible for this.
At the same time, the trade routes between the Fire Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom must remain open, and concessions must also be made on taxation.
This is because the land of the Wind Country is too barren and Konoha simply looks down on it, otherwise it would have tried its best to snatch more land this time.
Finally, all the ninjas who invaded the Hidden Sand Village were handed over to Konoha for prisoner control and released in batches.
Of course the jonin and elders would not go through such humiliation, especially since the Jinchūriki had to be escorted back.
This is the final bottom line of the Sand Village. The value of the Jonin itself and the value of the information are too high to be handed over to Konoha.
Jinchūriki is a weapon of mass destruction, so it is even more impossible to really hand it over. If Konoha adds a few more seals, then Rasa won't even be able to cry.
There are still many details on the various terms, but because both parties want to end it as soon as possible, they were passed decisively.
After a long time, do you really think that the other three countries will not raid our nest? Especially since the Sand Village is almost indistinguishable from an undefended village.
During this negotiation, Chiyo maintained the last bit of dignity by being willing to die together with Konoha.
But they were powerless to resist in terms of compensation. If they pushed further, even if the Third Hokage was willing, the ninjas and ninja clans under him would not agree.
You have to know that it's not just Konoha Village that suffered the loss, the losses among those ninja clans were almost destroying their foundations.
The shortage of resources and personnel is huge. If they are not adequately provided, the war may break out again at any time, and the so-called peace agreement will become a piece of waste paper in an instant.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to give Daowei a chance to recuperate.
It's better than everyone being wiped out here. As long as people are still there, the Sand Village will still exist.
This humiliating peace agreement was finally signed by two elders, Chiyo and Ebizo, and Rasa was not among them.
The Fourth Kazekage had to ensure his authority and greatness in the village.
Let the two elders bear this price that the entire village cannot afford. As sinners of Sand Village, they should do such a thing.
After signing the agreement, Chiyo looked older.
