Chapter 110 Refusing to Accept Your Fate
After letting Orochimaru go, Shiba Kiyokawa and his group counted their spoils.
Although the course of this battle was extremely dangerous and the situation was complicated and overwhelming, the two sides fought two waves of group battles.
But fortunately the final result was good.
Their Akatsuki organization suffered almost no losses, but instead gained a lot of tangible and intangible gains.
Even the original purpose of this trip was achieved: Yakushi Nono was snatched away.
This is all thanks to Terai.
Although this kid was of absolutely no help in the battle, he kept an eye on Orochimaru's barrier.
The moment Orochimaru released the barrier, he rushed up immediately, and without hesitation snatched away the most important person to him, Nono, and also got a pocket in return.
Although this was mainly due to the fact that Orochimaru was anxiously looking after Tsunade who was suffering from hemophobia at the time, the fact that he was able to snatch the person away from Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas, might be enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life in the future.
Then Shiba Kiyokawa went forward to check on the condition of Yakushi Nonou - with Tsunade gone, he became the only one in the team who knew medical ninjutsu.
After confirming that Nono was fine, he prepared to return to the Land of Rain and told Xiaonan, "Give Scorpion to Ye Cang, and give her the human puppet as well."
Xiaonan subconsciously asked in surprise: "Huh? Are you really giving it to me?"
At that moment, Shiba Qinghe felt very clearly that the Konan in the current world line was indeed deeply influenced by him! He changed her a lot!
Although it is difficult to judge whether this change is good or bad...
"Well, give it to him."
Staring at Ye Cang's murderous eyes, Shiba Qinghe confirmed it again helplessly.
Xiaonan blushed suddenly, as if she was shy and embarrassed, and then removed the long strip of white paper that was wrapped around her, and handed over the seriously injured Scorpion and the Third Generation Wind Shadow Puppet to Ye Cang.
After Ye Cang got the person and the things, he immediately jumped away and then spoke.
"That's rare. I thought it was normal for you and that girl to switch roles."
Kakuzu nodded in agreement, and was immediately glared at by Konan in shame and anger.
Shiba Kiyokawa prayed silently in his heart, sincerely hoping that Mr. Kakuzu would not have his salary deducted after he returned because he stepped into the hospital gate with his left foot first.
After all, Konan is still in charge of Akatsuki's logistics.
"We may have a chance to cooperate in the future." Shiba Qinghe looked at Ye Cang and said, "I hope you won't become a traitor to Sunagakure again by then."
"How can it be!"
Ye Cang left a resounding flag, then formed a seal and left quickly using a teleportation technique.
Afterwards, all the members of Akatsuki organization here also left.
On the way back, seeing that Xiaonan was still blushing, Shiba Qinghe approached her and comforted her, "It's okay for you to have such thoughts. I also thought about detaining Sasori. After all, he is the first new member you brought back."
Seeing that Konan's dodging gaze finally turned back to him, Shiba Qinghe continued to explain: "Compared to adding a new member, I think we still need to place more allies in the system of the five major ninja villages. Even if they are only potential allies, they are very necessary for us."
Xiaonan finally got rid of the embarrassment and asked seriously, "Why? We have only declared war on Konoha now, and as long as we maintain the state of war with Konoha, isn't Sunagakure naturally our ally?"
Shiba Qinghe was very pleased to hear this, pleased that Xiaonan finally got over his naivety and learned to look at war and think about countermeasures from the perspective of a leader of a country. Even if he was still very immature, at least it was much better than believing that people could understand each other and therefore trusting each other unconditionally.
But the next moment, Shiba Qinghe shook his head gently, "This is not enough, far from enough!"
At that moment, his eyes were deep, and what he expressed was not only his thoughts at the moment, but also the conclusion he had come to after thinking day and night for so many days.
Since the system was updated, Shiba Qinghe has been exploring new skills while also thinking non-stop about how to break the next death loop!
Even though his condition is much better now than when he first traveled through time, when he turned on the system, he could immediately see the Death Star flashing above his head!
There was a high probability that he would not survive even a year.
But now, even if the date of his death is most likely changed to more than ten years later, considering his age, he still cannot escape the fate of dying young.
Death is the purest fear of all living beings!
Even ants try to survive, so he certainly doesn't want to die!
Regarding the death ending with a probability of up to , the system gave very little information. It only mentioned that after the outbreak of the Fourth Ninja World War, the Rain Country, as the first target of hatred by the mastermind, would be the first to be targeted.
But as he thought more deeply, Shiba Kiyokawa couldn't help but ask a question -
The Fourth Shinobi World War was a war in which the five major ninja villages were destined to be involved in order to collect the tailed beasts and subvert the entire ninja world. So what were the five major ninja villages doing when the Rain Country was destroyed as predicted by the system?
Is it just because you didn't get the news that you missed it?
If Shiba Kiyokawa were to go offline for more than ten years from today, then this is indeed possible, but as long as he can live until that time, this kind of thing will never happen!
It's impossible for him to know that he would die and not notify the five major ninja villages.
Moreover, even if we ignore the influence of this butterfly that traveled through time and space and follow the destiny of the original work, the five major ninja villages will form a ninja coalition on their own to complete the integration of the combat power of the entire ninja world and fight against the big boss together.
The original work never mentioned that Obito and others raided and destroyed a small country before the war broke out, causing the Allied Ninja Forces to be unable to react. There is no such plot in the original work at all.
Therefore, the only explanation that Shiba Qinghe could think of was that the five major ninja villages knew the news but still chose not to help.
This is not without clues, and Shiba Qinghe can immediately think of many reasons.
Whether he suffers hatred from the daimyos of various countries and intervenes because of continuing his current actions, or the five major ninja villages choose to stand idly by in order to maintain their superior status in the ninja world, both are completely foreseeable future trends.
This is also consistent with the system's classification of this death ending as a world line convergence node.
Since the world line converges at this point, it means that slight, small changes are not enough to shake this result!
Simply revealing information, forming alliances, lobbying, or relying on the protagonist's rescue is not enough to rewrite the ending!
Just like the conclusion of the previous world line, if he had only fine-tuned Akatsuki's approach, currying favor with Hanzo, and guarding against Konoha, he would ultimately not have been able to prevent Black Zetsu from intervening and linking the three enemies together to destroy Akatsuki!
Facing the convergence of the world line, micro-manipulation is meaningless, and resistance at the detail level is doomed to be unable to shake the torrent of fate!
Therefore, the current level of alliance is not enough, far from enough!
Leaving behind one Scorpion to enhance Akatsuki's combat power would be a form of resistance at the micro-management level.
But secretly supporting Ye Cang and shaking the inheritance foundation of the entire Sand Village is more than just micro-manipulation of details!
At that moment, what flashed in Shiba Qinghe's eyes was an extremely crazy ambition!
He has never been a man who accepts his fate.
If he cannot reverse this corrupt fate, then he would rather set the sea on fire and watch the ninja village fall and the great country collapse!
"Sister Konan, we only have one chance to save the ninja world!"
