Chapter 105: A Good Opportunity

Sasori was a man from the Land of Wind, so it was perfectly normal for him to appear there.

More importantly, Sasori was a member of the Akatsuki, whose goal was to collect the nine tailed beasts and then revive the Ten-Tails.

And according to what Wang Bo knew, one of the nine tailed beasts, the One-Tail Shukaku, was in Sunagakure in the Land of Wind.

Moreover, it was the son of the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa... Gaara!

So Sasori's appearance in the Land of Wind was probably to capture Gaara, Wang Bo guessed.

Therefore, upon receiving this news, Wang Bo immediately dispatched his right-hand man, Haku, to the Land of Wind to capture Sasori. He intended to let no member of the Akatsuki escape.

All of them were to be arrested and brought to justice.

The only thing that troubled Wang Bo was that Amegakure had yet to report any trace of Konan and Nagato. Now, Amegakure was leaderless and in chaos.

It seemed that Nagato and Konan had decided to abandon Amegakure as their base.

That was too cowardly. It didn't fit Nagato's style at all. Didn't he call himself a god? Why was he so spineless?

Wang Bo clicked his tongue, greatly disappointed in Nagato. This guy wasn't tough at all.

In his memory, Nagato was majestic and domineering, invading Konoha alone and leveling it with a single Shinra Tensei, arrogant and unrivaled.

So why was he so cowardly in front of him? Could it be because he was too powerful?

That shouldn't be. Although Wang Bo had crushed the Animal, Preta, and Asura Paths, he hadn't displayed any earth-shattering techniques. Nagato shouldn't be this timid.

While Wang Bo was racking his brains, Haku had already set off for the Land of Wind to capture the Akatsuki member, Sasori.

But when Haku entered the Land of Wind, he found Sunagakure in complete disarray. The reason was simple: before Haku arrived, the village had been attacked.

The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, had been killed in battle, and his son Gaara had been abducted.

Haku was too late.

Now Sunagakure was leaderless. Although the white-haired Chiyo had stepped in to take charge, the village was still in a terrible mess.

After learning this, Haku did not reveal himself. Instead, he left and quickly returned to the Land of Fire to report the matter to Wang Bo.

Upon hearing this, Wang Bo knew that the Akatsuki had begun collecting tailed beasts.

The Nine-Tails of Konoha had disappeared when Wang Bo attacked the village. If nothing unexpected happened, it had already fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki. Whether it was alive or dead was unknown.

Now that even the One-Tail Shukaku had been attacked, who would be next?

Wang Bo wrote a letter to Silver Superman in the Land of Water, inquiring about the situation there.

Not long after, Silver Superman replied.

In his letter, he told Wang Bo that Kirigakure originally had two tailed beasts: the Three-Tails Isobu and the Six-Tails Saiken.

However, the jinchuriki of the Six-Tails, Utakata, had long since betrayed Kirigakure and was now missing. If nothing unexpected happened, he had already fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki.

The jinchuriki of the Three-Tails was the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura. But after Yagura's death, the Three-Tails gained its freedom. Logically, after Yagura's death, Kirigakure would choose a new jinchuriki.

However, Silver Superman looked down on the Three-Tails. In his eyes, the Three-Tails was quite poor in both strength and temperament. Even if it became a jinchuriki, it would do little to enhance Kirigakure's power.

So after analyzing the Three-Tails' structure, Silver Superman kicked it out of Kirigakure.

As of now, the Three-Tails was no longer in Kirigakure.

But he still had two tailed beasts in his possession, which came from Kumogakure.

One was the Eight-Tails Gyuki, and the other was the Two-Tails Matatabi.

Their jinchuriki were Killer B and Yugito Nii, both ninja from Kumogakure, but now serving the Land of Water because they couldn't defeat Silver Superman.

After receiving this letter, Wang Bo had a general idea of the situation.

So far, the Akatsuki had probably collected some tailed beasts, but it would be a long time before they collected them all, since the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails were in Silver Superman's hands.

Even if the Akatsuki members went all out, they couldn't take those two tailed beasts from Silver Superman.

Even if Uchiha Madara were resurrected with the Rinnegan, he would be nothing in Silver Superman's eyes.

After all, Silver Superman was far too powerful.

Therefore, Wang Bo no longer worried about the tailed beasts.

As for the Land of Wind, with the Fourth Kazekage dead and his son kidnapped, it was in chaos—perfect for making a move.

Initially, Wang Bo had planned to develop the Land of Fire first, train more ninja, and then crush the Wind-Earth Alliance and unify the ninja world with overwhelming force.

But now that the Land of Wind was in turmoil, it was indeed a good opportunity.

So Wang Bo immediately mobilized over five thousand ninja, led by Haku and Satō Ken, to attack the Land of Wind, defeat Sunagakure, and take over the country.

Upon receiving the mission, Haku and Satō Ken did not hesitate. They led the five thousand ninja and set off, racing toward the Land of Wind.

Such a large-scale troop movement naturally could not be hidden from keen observers, and the Land of Wind received the intelligence immediately.

But the problem was that the Land of Wind had lost its Kazekage and was leaderless. Faced with the aggressive Land of Fire, they inevitably showed fear and disunity. How could they fight?

However, at this critical moment, the veteran Chiyo forcibly suppressed the emerging conflicts and rallied the ninja of the Land of Wind, preparing to fight the Land of Fire to the death.

But before the decisive battle, she first sent a letter of request for reinforcements to the Land of Earth.

After all, although the Kazekage was dead, the Wind-Earth Alliance still existed.

As long as the Tsuchikage wasn't stupid, he would understand the concept of 'when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold' and would surely send ninja to help. If they could repel the first wave of the Land of Fire's attack, they could hold out until reinforcements arrived from the Land of Earth.

Then things would take a turn for the better.

And as it turned out, Chiyo's thinking was correct. Upon receiving her letter, the Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, immediately decided to send troops to aid the Land of Wind.

This was not only for the Land of Wind but also for the Land of Earth.

However, just as the Tsuchikage Ōnoki was gathering a group of ninja to support the Land of Wind, a piece of news that made his face change drastically reached his ears.

The Land of Water had gathered a large number of ninja from Kirigakure and Kumogakure and planned to attack the Land of Earth.

This news hit him like a slap in the face, plunging the Tsuchikage into despair!

If he dared to lead ninja to support the Land of Wind, the Land of Earth would be finished. If he didn't lead ninja to support the Land of Wind, the Land of Wind would be finished.

For a moment, the Tsuchikage was caught in a dilemma!
