Chapter 29: Konoha Strategist on the Borderline

When Sakura saw the hopeful look in Shisui's eyes as he talked about peace, she couldn't help but wanted to sarcastically comment, "Just for the sake of peace, you ended up being tricked by Danzo and died."

Upon hearing Shisui's final words, a hint of sadness flashed in Kakashi's right eye. If it weren't for the war, Obito Uchiha and Rin probably wouldn't have died either.

Guy also agreed with Shisui's words. If it weren't for the war, he wouldn't have gone to the battlefield at such a young age, and his father wouldn't have died protecting him.

With a common topic, the atmosphere between the few of them improved a lot. Shisui and the others had all experienced war, so they longed for peace. Sakura had lived in peace in her past life, so she naturally didn't want war to occur.

Kakashi felt that he had become decadent. Although he was an elite ANBU, he should have been meticulous when carrying out missions. But in this situation, the few of them were flying on Demon Sword in the sky, and they didn't have to worry about enemy attacks. Shisui had brought a lot of food and drinks in his storage scroll, so besides eating and drinking, he only had time to read Icha Icha Paradise. He felt that if he continued like this, his ninja qualities that he had cultivated for many years would be gone forever. However... this lazy lifestyle was really enjoyable.

Kakashi, who had lived in pain for many years, had the thought of being lazy for the first time. If the Third Hokage knew that the reason why the later Kakashi had such a lazy personality was because of this mission, he would probably regret sending Kakashi out for the mission.

Shisui also liked this peaceful mission journey very much. There was no killing, no need to guard against sudden enemy attacks, and his mind was much more relaxed. The most important thing was that he had Sakura, a companion who also loved peace. The two of them could chat freely about a life without war, and everything was so beautiful.

The only one who wasn't very happy was probably Guy. As a rare beast who vowed to keep his youth forever, high-intensity training had become his daily routine. But these days, he had been staying in the sky with only a strange sword under his feet. His youth couldn't be ignited at all. Although Sakura had told him more than once that it was safe to stay on the sword and he wouldn't fall, Guy's heart was still a little uneasy. A few days of leisurely life had made him completely listless.

After traveling for several days in a row, the few of them finally arrived at the border. As soon as they landed, Guy fell to the ground in tears. Fortunately, he had finally reached his destination, and his youth had not been completely corroded.

Upon receiving the notification that four strange people had fallen from the sky, Nara Shikaku, as the strategist, immediately thought of the matter that the Third Hokage had notified him of and hurriedly ran out of the camp.

"This is..."

Nara Shikaku's mouth twitched as he looked at Guy, who was crying on the ground. He felt a headache coming on.

"He's lamenting that his youth hasn't completely disappeared yet!" Kakashi replied. He and Nara Shikaku were quite familiar with each other.

"This is Sakura, right? Third Hokage told me about it!" Nara Shikaku looked at Sakura with a curious expression. Besides the intelligence that the Third Hokage had given him, the most important thing was that this Sakura was his son's good friend and had even changed his son's lazy personality. This made Nara Shikaku feel very unbelievable.

"Hello, Uncle Shikaku!" Sakura smiled and greeted him. This Hokage world's famous high IQ talent was sent to heaven by the Ten-Tails Tailed Beast Ball, but his son eventually became a strategist for the Hokage, which was also a hereditary career for their Nara clan.

"Hello, Shikaku Nara-senpai!" Shisui also greeted him. Shisui was always very respectful to Nara Shikaku and the other seniors.

"Hey, hey, hey, Shikaku Nara-senpai!" Guy jumped up, with traces of dried tears on his face. After giving Nara Shikaku a tooth sparkling smile, he ran around the camp with both hands on the ground, causing everyone to be speechless.

"Uh, Shikaku Nara-senpai, the current situation doesn't seem very good!" Kakashi asked. The atmosphere in the camp was very heavy, and all the ninjas they had encountered on the way had no smiles on their faces.

"Well, it seems that Cloud Village is determined to go to war with us. They have not only gathered a large number of ninjas, but also sent the Two-Tails Jinchuriki from Cloud Village..." Nara Shikaku said in a low voice. The figure that flashed by in the opposite camp yesterday was the Two-Tails Jinchuriki from Cloud Village in the intelligence report. The fact that they had sent a Jinchuriki showed that they had a plan to go to war.

"Two-Tails again?" Sakura thought for a moment. The Two-Tails Jinchuriki, who was captured by Kakuzu and Hidan in the original work. His strength was also very strong, and most importantly, the Jinchuriki from Cloud Village could perfectly control the Tailed Beast.

"Third Hokage told me that you have a way to make the other side retreat voluntarily!" With Nara Shikaku's intelligence, he still couldn't understand how a four-year-old child could make Cloud Village retreat. Cloud Village was known for being warlike.

"It's simple. Just show them a meteor shower!" Sakura smiled and said. Meteor showers were not common. If Cloud Village saw a meteor shower, they would definitely retreat obediently.

"Meteor shower?!" Everyone had question marks above their heads. Could showing them a meteor shower really make Cloud Village retreat?

In the end, Akimichi Chouza, who couldn't hold back his words, asked this question.

"Just showing them a meteor shower won't make them retreat obediently, but what if they have a close encounter with the meteor shower?!" Sakura smiled gently, but Nara Shikaku, Kakashi, and Shisui all widened their eyes. They weren't stupid and naturally understood Sakura's meaning. What was a meteor? It was a meteorite! If they had a close encounter with a meteorite, they would definitely be smashed to death.

"Can you really do it?" Nara Shikaku couldn't help but ask. If someone could control meteorites, it would be a fatal threat to any ninja village or country.

"No problem, I can create a small meteor shower!" Sakura made an OK gesture, then said with some regret, "It's a pity that my current strength is too weak. Otherwise, I could directly pull down a small asteroid and give them a surprise!"

"Hehe..." Nara Shikaku dryly laughed. Surprise? More like shock. Moreover, a small asteroid falling from the sky would not only destroy Cloud Village, but probably no country in the Five Great Nations would survive. The entire ninja world would be doomed.
