Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 339: War Starts

The propagation of information was very slow in this world. By the time the news reached its destination, the matter had either already been resolved or worsened.

Currently, the Hokage was experiencing this situation.

He had received three different scrolls in a short interval. One was from Sakumo Hatake, one was from Jiraya and one was from Tsuchikage.

He opened the first one from Sakumo and read it. His eyes widened in shock after reading that they were late in reaching Takigakure and the strange old man had already taken away the seven-tails. He reported that they are going to follow the man and try to take the seven tails from him.

But now he had already sent his Anbu to call all the clan heads, the shinobi commander, and the Konoha Council.

Then he opened the next scroll. It was from Jiraya. It said that he met with Sakumo but they were late. The old man had already somehow taken away the four-tails and five-tails from Iwagakure.

But the problem came when the Iwagakure found out about them and thought that they had taken their tailed beasts. Jiraya and Sakumo were able to run away from Iwa and are currently returning.

All this brought him to the third scroll. It was an official declaration of War on Konoha by Iwagakure, signed by Tsuchikage and the Daimyo of Earth country.

It was like his hair turned whiter reading this. The war he was trying to avoid had now come to him with full force.

After a while, the big meeting was convened. Hokage addressed all the clan heads.

"I am saddened to tell you all that Iwagakure has announced war on us. They say we stole their tailed beasts which is not true.

"But no matter what we do, they will not back down. So, we must prepare for it. Fortify the borders. Tell all the Jonins to be prepared for deployment. Sakumo and Jiraya are returning to the village.

"Shikaku Nara, you are the commander of Konoha Shinobi forces, you will devise the battle plans. Let's not forget, now they don't have any tailed beasts, so we only have to worry about their Shinobi and the Tsuchikage." Hokage announced.

Shikaku scratched his head, "Do we know anything about who is this person stealing the tailed beasts?"

Everyone looked at Hokage in the hope of an answer. But the Hokage shook his head, "No, we don't know anything about him except his name."

*Sigh*

"Maybe we should contact him first. Learn why he is doing all this. Because if he is strong enough to control three tailed beasts, then why didn't he attack Iwagakure? Three tailed beasts should be enough to level it to the ground. Why did he just leave and why did he let Sakumo go when he attacked him. We need these answers before we make up our minds about him." Shikaku said.

Three seats to his left, Fugaku Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan nodded. "Yes, we must know our enemy before we try taking him down."

It was very rare to see the Uchiha clan agreeing to anything. But this time was different because Fugaku was thinking that maybe some unknown ex-member of the Uchiha clan must have gained the legendary Mangekyo Sharingan and was able to control the tailed beasts.

Only two people were known to have been able to do this. Madara Uchiha and Senju Hashirama. The Senju clan only had one member left alive, which leaves only Uchiha. He hoped to meet this man and maybe find out about the secrets of how to get a Mangekyo.

Hokage nodded, "Yes, this is why I need someone to go and make contact with him. We cannot spare any big names and experienced Shinobi. So, we will discuss this later. For now, let's just prepare for the coming war."

...

"Bunpuku, do you want to accompany me in my journey in fixing this broken world?" He asked.

Bunpuku had grown physically younger but his eyes still had the same old look in them.

He got up and smiled while nodding, "Yes, I would like that."

"Haha, good, let's be on our way then. Shukaku, grab a seat on Douglas." Alexander instructed. He then took out the anywhere door and returned to Ragnarok in the Daimyo's palace. When they reached, people had also gotten up from their naked slumber.

...

The bells of war had started to ring in Sunagakure after Alexander took their Jinchuriki away. Bunpuku was a test subject of the 3rd Kazekage for learning how the one-tail controlled sand.

He was even able to understand it and combine it into his powers.

So, the disappearance of Bunpuku was a big deal. They had already heard about the kidnapping of Iwa's tailed beats by Konoha.

So they came to the conclusion that Konoha wanted to take back all the tailed beasts and make them Konoha's property. This led to them preparing for war.

...

Bunpuku bowed in front of Ragnarok, "I pay my respects to the Daimyo."

Ragnarok scratched his beard, "Well, thanks I guess. Here, grab a beer. I just brewed it."

Bunpuku grabbed the crystal-like bottle in confusion.

"That is an alcoholic drink, Bunpuku," Alexander explained.

"But I am a monk, I can not drink this," he argued politely.

"Haha, it's all right. I won't force you. But if you want to experience everything in the world then you better not limit yourself. You've been a monk all your life. Maybe it's time to be something else." Alexander advised and downed a beer.

Bunpuku looked at the bottle for a second and then drank it too.

"Alex, the war has started. Iwagakure officially declared war on Konoha for stealing two Tailed beasts from them." Ragnarok informed him.

Son Goku and Kokuo turned their heads and looked at Alexander.

"Haha, don't worry, you two. I will deal with this war. Well, Fire Country is probably going to be our last destination so let's find the rest of your siblings. Kurama is in Konohagakure and he's not going anywhere." He comforted them.

"Who are we going to find this time, G-Chan?" Chomei asked.

"Um, let's find Isobu and Saiken. They are most likely in Kirigakure." He muttered.

"Yes, Saiken and Isobu were always nice to everyone. Let's go and save them. Team Bijuu assemble." Chomei cheered and posed like he was a superhero. It was something Alexander made them do when they were small.

Before leaving he gave Ragnarok his instructions, "Ragnarok, keep an eye on the war and notify me if anything out of the ordinary happens."

"Okay, Hats, Douglas, Berry, vacation is over. Let's go."

...

Konoha tried to tell Iwa that it was not them who took their tailed beasts. But no reply from Iwa came. In fact, Tsuchikage already knew that Konoha had nothing to do with it. But he now had a justifiable reason to wage the war because Jiraiya and Sakumo Hatake were found in the wrong place at the wrong time.

And now, Sunagakure had also declared war. But they didn't only declare it on Konoha but Iwa too.

So, three sides had already formed. Now it was to be seen which side Kumogakure and Kirigakure take.

[A/N: According to the original story, Sakumo should have committed suicide by now but surely, things have changed here because of Alexander.]
