He is not like the Third Raikage, a fool who believed what others said and launched an attack on Konoha. This time, due to the Third Raikage's impulsiveness, not only did he give the Iwagakure Village an opportunity to plunder, but he also gave the Iwagakure Village an opportunity to make friends with Konoha.

Would Ohnoki refuse such a plan that would kill two birds with one stone? He wouldn't! So Ohnoki said, "Huangtu, go call Han and Lao Zi and discuss the attack on the Hidden Cloud Village immediately. Tell them that they can use the Tailed Beast Balls without restriction!" Ohnoki's eyes were fierce.

If you want to have fun, then go big and make Konoha owe them an even deeper debt. After this is over, if Iwagakure needs your help in the future, you can't refuse to help, right? I, the Iwagakure Village, have offended our "dear" old neighbors for your sake.

I guess you, Konoha, don't have any response?

Ohnoki's calculations were very detailed, and he even considered them decades into the future!

Soon, Lao Zi, Han, and Huang Tu arrived at the Tsuchikage building. They looked at Ohnoki, and no one spoke. Although Huang Tu told them on the way that he wanted them to lead the Iwagakure ninjas to attack the Kumogakure, he did not make the purpose clear. Therefore, the two of them were mentally prepared and came to ask the Tsuchikage Ohnoki.

Ohnoki smiled when he saw the two of them coming and said, "Please take a seat. I'll have to trouble you two to lead the troops to the Hidden Cloud Village and cause a big commotion in the Land of Lightning!"

Although the two didn't understand, they nodded. Ohnoki saw their confusion and didn't intend to hide it from them. Instead, he told them about Uchiha Owl's visit to the Iwagakure Village.

Han was fine, while the King Mu in his body smiled and said, "Yes, yes, your leader is very smart. He was able to see the interests involved in the whole matter and put pressure on the right people. This is not easy."

"Right, King Mu, I was saying that Lord Tsuchikage is wise and brave!" Han raised the corners of his mouth and communicated with King Mu in his heart. King Mu rolled his eyes and said, yes, yes, you are awesome, okay!

But Old Zi frowned and said, "Lord Tsuchikage, isn't this giving Konoha an advantage? Moreover, Uchiha Owl caused us a lot of losses in the Hidden Rock Village. If we help him, will it cause dissatisfaction among the people below?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Tsuchikage Ohnoki narrowed his eyes and looked at Lao Zi. Huang Tu frowned. Although he didn't understand it either, he believed in his father Ohnoki's judgment.

Han was confused at this moment. It’s not that you forgot, Lao Zi, it was Lord Tsuchikage who redeemed you from Uchiha Owl. Now you are contradicting Lord Tsuchikage like this. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate?

King Mu began to speak in Han's mind, "Stay away from this old Zi from now on. Sun Wukong got into trouble by following him! And don't say anything for a while, just stand by your leader!"

Han nodded. He understood that King Mu was doing this for his own good. Ever since Han became the perfect Jinchūriki, the two of them had chatted frequently and knew a lot about each other.

Sun Wukong frowned in Lao Zi's mind. He didn't say anything, but in his heart he didn't approve of Lao Zi's behavior. Now Lao Zi's words were tantamount to refuting Ohnoki.

Isn't this kind of behavior ungrateful? Sun Wukong couldn't stand Lao Zi's personality. He originally felt that Lao Zi was very thoughtful and had some conflicts with him, but he was also a hero.

Since losing to Uchiha Xiao last time, Lao Zi has changed. He has become moody and blaming others. This time, he even refuted his benefactor, which made Sun Wukong a little disappointed.

"Lao Zi, Ohnoki spent a lot of money to rescue you, we can't..." Sun Wukong reminded.

But Lao Zi responded in his heart, "You don't understand, Sun Wukong. We were captured because we were not strong enough. If I were the Tsuchikage, then even if Uchiha Owl defeated me, he would not dare to touch me."

"Besides, the position of Tsuchikage belongs to the most capable person. If Ohnoki did it, why can't I, Lao Zi, do it? Okay, Sun Wukong, stop talking." Lao Zi said lightly in his heart.

Sun Wukong: …

So, Sun Wukong began to contact King Mu, "King Mu, I can't stand it anymore. Can you let me get away from this Lao Zi? He is just like a fool. He repays kindness with enmity and has great ambitions. I feel ashamed to become his tailed beast."

King Mu was silent for a moment. "Sun Wukong, I know you are anxious, but don't worry. Believe me, there will be a chance. With his character, he is destined not to live long."

"If God wants him to perish, he must first make him crazy. Now he is openly fighting against Onoki. No matter in strength or ability, he is crushed by Onoki. Onoki will not let him have an easy time. Wait a little longer." King Mu comforted.

Sun Wukong sighed, wondering how he ended up with such a Jinchūriki!

Chapter 359 Ohnoki's Methods

Lao Zi's face was full of complacency. He had long been unhappy with the fact that Ohnoki always held the power of the Iwagakure Village alone. He just sat in the village and gave orders all day long. He could mobilize anyone with just his mouth, including him and Han, the two honorable Jinchūriki. Today he finally got the chance.

"Oh? You mean, someone would be unhappy with my actions?" Ohnoki's voice was filled with sarcasm. He slowly stood up from his seat. "Who told you that what I did was wrong? Hmm? Have you forgotten who redeemed you when you were trampled under the feet of Uchiha Owl?"

"Who is it that inherited the position of Tsuchikage and, for over twenty years, has diligently and tirelessly led the Iwagakure Village from the bottom of the Five Great Nations to its current strength as one of the top three?"

"It's you? Old Zi? The Jinchūriki who only knows how to hug his chest and has a gloomy face all day? Huh? Or are you and Han dissatisfied with me?" Tsuchikage Ohnoki's words at this moment were very plain, but no one present could ignore and question what he said.

Han walked out with sweat all over his forehead and bowed, "Lord Tsuchikage, I have absolutely no intention of questioning you. This matter has nothing to do with me!" Han smiled bitterly. At this moment, the tense momentum between Lao Zi and Ohnoki on the field made him a little overwhelmed.

Han looked at Lao Zi with a strange look in his eyes. "Why are you so brave if you're not my friend?" These words reflected Han's inner thoughts at the moment. He looked at Lao Zi and wanted to beat him to death. Now, because of Lao Zi, he was suspected.

Lao Zi looked at Han, frowning, and cursed in his heart, "Damn it! You are a Jinchūriki like me. Originally, after this success, I would drive the Tsuchikage out of power, and then we would jointly control the power of the Hidden Rock Village. Tsk tsk, it seems that you don't have this blessing."

"Well, Han, I know that you are loyal to the Iwagakure Village and you will definitely not have such despicable thoughts. After all, it takes a lot of thick skin to call your mother when you pick up the bowl and curse your mother when you put the bowl down. I still believe in you." As the Tsuchikage Ohnoki walked down the steps, Han quickly knelt on one knee.

Ohnoki patted his shoulder with a smile, then looked at Lao Zi and said, "You said that my actions would make people dissatisfied? It would make everyone in the Hidden Rock Village dissatisfied. Well, I'll give you a chance, Lao Zi. If you can find ten family leaders and say this, the position of Tsuchikage will be given to you."

"Hmph, you said it, Ohnoki, don't regret it!" After saying that, Lao Zi also left this place that made him feel uncomfortable. He was fed up with the mocking looks from Ohnoki and his faction!

Ohnoki ignored him and slowly walked up the stairs. He sat on the Tsuchikage throne again. He smiled and said, "Han, I want to apologize to you. I was too harsh just now."

Han didn't dare to stand up and hurriedly said, "Lord Tsuchikage, I dare not. I just hope that Lord Tsuchikage will understand that Old Purple and I, bah, bah, bah, that traitor and I have no contact with each other except that we are both Jinchūriki of the Hidden Rock Village!"

Ohnoki smiled and said, "Of course I understand. He is him, and Han is Han. However, I hope that if Han has any dissatisfaction with me, he can speak out directly. I just like to discuss issues with others."

Han still lowered his head and said, "Lord Tsuchikage is wise and powerful. I believe that anyone with a discerning eye can see that he has been in power for the past twenty years! Han only knows a few martial arts, but if I can help Lord Tsuchikage, I will be extremely satisfied!"

Onoki's smile grew even wider. "Tu'er, go help your uncle Han up. The ground is cold. Then take out 500 million silver from the treasury and give it to him. He has worked hard over the years and has been running around for our Iwagakure Village."

"Yes! Father!" Huangtu hurriedly helped Han up. Hearing this, Han breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally drawn a clear line between himself and that guy Lao Zi. The words and actions just now were all taught to him by King Mu.

King Mu said, "Remember, Ohnoki is no simple man. He is the only leader in the ninja world whose wisdom can rival that of Uchiha Owl. He judges the situation and his governing methods are not as kind and benevolent as he appears. You, you follow him closely, and you will be fine in the future!"

It was as if King Mu's eyes could see through Tsuchikage Ohnoki. He wanted to explain his thoughts to Han, but when he thought of Han's IQ, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and scolded him for his previous behavior and words.

Han nodded fiercely in his heart, "I understand, King Mu, from now on, if Tsuchikage tells me to go east, I will never go west!"

King Mu nodded and felt relieved. He was really afraid that Han would be fooled by Lao Zi and follow Lao Zi in rebelling. If that happened, with Lao Zi's brain, both he and the king would suffer!

Ohnoki wasn't in a hurry. Didn't he ask Old Purple to go door to door looking for him? Then let him go and wait for him for a while. By the way, I'll see which families are dissatisfied with me and eliminate them all. Oh, by the way, if Uchiha Xiao asks me to hold him accountable, I'll say that Old Purple disagrees. Then, I can easily deal with this Jinchūriki, right?

Kill three birds with one stone, perfect.

With Uchiha Owl's temper, he knew that because of Old Zi, one or two more villages under his Konoha's rule were destroyed, and that problem would not be solved by simply trampling him under his feet on the battlefield.

Moreover, Ohnoki was not afraid that Uchiha Owl would see through his plan of killing someone with a borrowed knife. Instead, he believed that Uchiha Owl would help him. After all, a smart ally who could help their Konoha and an ally who could judge the situation was what Uchiha Owl needed.

The difference between a smart person and a stupid person is that the former knows what he should and should not do, while the latter always has in his mind the idea that he can do it too.

How many powerful people have died because of arrogance and hubris? Ohnoki knew that this era was not his era, but the era of Uchiha Owl, known as the God of Konoha. Since he couldn't change the trend, he might as well obey.

Unfortunately, many people don't understand this truth, and some even call them fools. Do they really not understand? No, they do. They understand it all too well. Just like Rasa, didn't he know Konoha was powerful? Why did he declare war? For his own purposes, for his own power.

Didn't Old Purple know that helping Konoha would bring huge benefits? He knew, but he was also blinded by power. He wanted to drive out the dictatorial Ōnoki and become the supreme Tsuchikage himself, so he had to make a fuss about this matter.

There are so many smart people in the world, but only a few can hide their edge and win in the end. The reason is: one is overconfident, and the other is not lucky enough.

Just like that, after waiting for two hours, Old Purple came in from outside with a dark face. Ohnoki looked behind him and couldn't help laughing, "Hey, isn't this the great Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Old Purple of Iwagakure is back? Huh? Why is there no one behind you to support you?"

"Oh, I understand. It must be that they don't know how to appreciate it. It's not your fault, Old Zi, right?" Ohnoki sneered.

Every single one of the staff and senior executives currently in the office of the Tsuchikage Building laughed at Lao Zi, laughing at him for overestimating his own abilities and for not understanding what politics was.

Lao Zi clenched his fists and said angrily, "I lost, Lord Tsuchikage. I failed to find anyone. Please punish me!" Lao Zi was not convinced, but wanted to save his face.

But now that the two have already torn their faces apart, will Ohnoki give him this opportunity? Of course not. With a turn of his eyes, Ohnoki suddenly thought of something and said, "Well, since you are willing to accept the punishment, I will punish you alone. Go to Konoha, use the Tailed Beast Ball, help Konoha, and kill the Cloud Ninja Army. How about it?"

Then, Ohnoki frowned again and said, "Tsk tsk, no, no, you alone are no match for the 20,000-strong Cloud Ninja Army. I think it's better to forget it."

"No! I'm going, and no one can stop me!" Lao Zi said resolutely. However, an embarrassing thing happened. No one present stopped him, but watched him perform coldly, including the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, who had had dealings with him before.

Ohnoki's eyes lit up. "Okay, from now on, no one is allowed to make a fuss about this matter, otherwise they will be my enemy. Old Zi is the benchmark of our Iwagakure Village! Do you understand?"

“I understand!”

Lao Zi turned around and snorted, then walked out of the Tsuchikage Building. Without even glancing at the people present, he left the Iwagakure Village with an arrogant look and flew towards the battlefield.

After seeing Lao Zi leave, Ohnoki's smile and raised mouth corners turned flat. "Huang Tu, Han, I order you two to lead 15,000 rock ninjas and attack the Hidden Cloud Village directly! The momentum must be huge, and no grass will be left in the place where you pass. Make money by killing yourself!"

"Yes!" Huangtu Han began to dispatch troops after receiving the order.

Ohnoki asked other senior staff to ensure the food and supplies. If Huangtu and Han ran out of food and supplies during the battle, everyone present would be beheaded, and their families would also be implicated!

Everyone cheered up and did their best. They knew that Ohnoki was not the kind of person who would ignore your efforts. As long as you worked hard, nothing would happen, even if the war failed.

And if you can do well, but because of laziness... then it's hard to say.

Just after everyone left, Ohnoki took out a smartphone and called Uchiha Owl. This was a smartphone that Uchiha Owl had asked the Anbu to secretly give to him when he attended Uchiha Owl's wedding.

Ohnoki didn't have to wait long before the call was connected. "Lord Tsuchikage, have you figured it out?" Uchiha Owl's voice came over.

"That's right, I think Owl King is more worthy of my bet on, Ohnoki, but..." Ohnoki hesitated to speak, and even his expression became embarrassed.

Uchiha Xiao frowned. He was very familiar with this way of speaking. The word "just" was followed by either a condition or a key point. However, Uchiha Xiao did not intend to expose it and asked patiently, "Just what?"

"However, there is one person who disobeyed orders and acted on his own. He has now entered the territory of the Land of Fire and intends to use the Tailed Beast Ball..."

Chapter 360 Master and Disciple

Uchiha Xiao raised his voice a few notches, "What! Bastard! Who is it! Han or Lao Zi! Bastard, Lao Zi kill him!" Uchiha Xiao's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He used the Tailed Beast Ball in the Land of Fire. Damn, he's so brave!

Ohnoki's lips curled up, and he smiled and said, "Sir, this is also my fault. It was Old Purple. Old Purple expressed doubts and denials about my idea of ​​sending troops to attack the Hidden Cloud Village immediately. He delayed me for two hours and now we parted on bad terms, but I have already sent troops to attack the Hidden Cloud Village."

"At the same time, the Iwagakure Village will regard him as a traitor and will no longer protect him. In a fit of rage, Lao Zi said on the spot that he would take action alone to help those Cloud Ninjas and prove to us that he was right! It's all my fault!" Ohnoki sighed.

However, because of his words, the originally furious Uchiha Owl calmed down for the first time. He narrowed his eyes, thinking about Ohnoki's words, and finally smiled, "Okay, Tsuchikage-sama, I know what to do, but I want to confirm one thing with you, Old Murasaki is really a traitor to the Iwagakure Village and is no longer under the protection of the Iwagakure Village, right?"

There was murderous intent in Uchiha Owl's voice. Even though he was thousands of miles away, Ohnoki could feel it through his smartphone. He smiled and said, "Yes, Owl-sama, if he does anything wrong in the future, it has nothing to do with the Iwagakure Village. You can just deal with it. It's just the tailed beasts..." Ohnoki frowned again.

Uchiha Owl cursed the old fox inwardly, but he said, "I can't guarantee this, because I might kill this guy directly. You don't have to think about the tailed beast, but I, Uchiha Owl, owe you a favor."

"Hey, hey! What are you talking about, Hokage? Iwagakure and Konoha are brother villages. There's no need to be so polite." Ohnoki smiled. Tailed Beast? If there's no tailed beast, then there's no tailed beast. What he needs is an obedient Jinchūriki, not a loser who uses this power to challenge him all day long!

"Well, that's it, Ohnoki. After this battle, I will treat you to a drink, and Konoha will exempt tariffs on Iwagakure for ten years." After saying that, Uchiha Owl hung up the phone. The smile on Ohnoki's lips was almost reaching his ears.

At this time, a yellow-haired man and a long-legged loli walked over. "Old man/Grandpa." Ohnoki was stunned when he heard that. He quickly stood up with a smile. At this moment, he seemed to no longer be the third Tsuchikage who was decisive and resourceful, but a master, an old man.

"Haha, Xiaodi, how come Kurotsuchi is free to come and see grandpa today?" Tsuchikage Ohnoki was smiling at this moment. One of these two people was his granddaughter Kurotsuchi, and the other was his most proud disciple Deidara.

Deidara possesses three types of chakra: wind, earth, and fire, and his comprehension is even higher than his own. At this moment, Ohnoki even trains him as his successor, and even plans to teach him all the techniques of Dust Release when he grows up.

The most important thing is that his granddaughter Kurotsuchi likes Deidara very much. Although they are still children now, won’t they develop feelings for each other over time?

"Master, look, I have researched something interesting." Then, Deidara's eyes lit up and he opened his hands. In his hands was a small spider made of white clay, looking at the surrounding environment with a confused look on his face.

"Hmm? What is this?" Just as Ohnoki was about to touch it, he saw Deidara's mouth curl up, his right index and middle fingers raised, and then he muttered "Kats!"

The spider instantly became alert and rushed towards Ohnoki. Ohnoki was stunned for a moment, and a bad feeling arose in his heart. Then he formed seals with his hands and pointed to the ground, "Earth Escape: Earth Flow Wall!" A hard stone wall rose from the ground. Seeing this, the spider was not afraid at all and rushed towards the Earth Flow Wall.

Then, with a bang, it exploded.

The Iwagakure high-ranking officials who had been leaving were startled. "What the hell is that? Lord Tsuchikage!" Even the Anbu were alarmed. A group of ninjas rushed into the Tsuchikage's office.
