Naruto Time Control

Chapter 217: Negotiations

Country of rain.

A region bordering the Land of Earth.

During the fall of the Rain Country and its seizure under Konoha's control, Ōnoki did not hesitate and introduced troops into it, firmly occupying a quarter of the country's territory.

Ōnoki's goal was to plunder enough resources from the Rain Country, and Konoha's goal was to stabilize the situation, but for a while there was no conflict between them.

However.

Finally, after about four months, when the situation in the Rain Country was completely stabilized, the time came for a confrontation between Iwagakure and Konoha.

Not wanting to start a war in the Rain Country, Iwagakure and Konoha initiated a negotiation meeting.

Konoha demanded that Iwagakure completely withdraw troops from the Rain Country and will compensate for all the damage caused to the country during this time.

Ōnoki, of course, could do no such thing.

The negotiations came to a dead end.

Hokage's office.

"So, Ōnoki's bottom line is to withdraw the troops from the Rain Country and help Konoha take control of the liberated territory as soon as possible? At the same time, they demand a fee of two billion Ryo, for the 'protection' of this territory for us in the past four months?"

Yeruashi smiled as he listened to the results of the negotiations.

Yeruashi's smile made cold sweat break out on the forehead of the ninja who was relaying information about the progress of the negotiations in the Rain Country, and he said, "Hokage-sama, the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, personally sat at the negotiating table, this put a lot of pressure on our side..."

"Okay, I understand."

Yeruashi waved his hand and said, "Go tell them that the negotiations are postponed for three days."

"Yes."

The ninja accepted the order and left the Hokage's office.

Yeruashi turned his head to look at Kakashi, who was standing nearby, and said, "Kakashi, go and transmit the order for a ninja to send a Kunai with the Hiraishin no Jutsu to the new negotiation location"

"I understand."

Kakashi nodded and immediately began to act.

The information about the Hiraishin seals is under Yeruashi's strict control, because it is extremely important, as once the enemy manages to get information about the time and place of their movement, they can become a great threat to Konoha.

Therefore, the question of where and how to use Hiraishin is decided exclusively by Yeruashi, moreover, as a rule, he does not build any exact plan for before, but moves when the desire arises.

Only Kakashi is in charge of moving the Kunais the Hiraishin seals, in absolute secrecy. josei

Therefore, whoever tries to obtain information about whether the Fifth Hokage will leave Konoha in the near future, it will be an extremely difficult task and it is impossible to determine the exact time of his departure from Konoha.

After Kakashi's departure, Yeruashi signed several more documents.

Then he leaned back in his chair, raised his left hand in front of him and waved his palm, under the evening light, the white palm radiated a faint golden glow.

"The Sage Body is almost ready..."

Yeruashi whispered softly.

It had been quite some time since he mastered the Perfect Sage Mode and began to develop the Sage Body, at which point, the natural energy in his body was approaching the saturation point.

This natural energy fused with every cell in Yeruashi's body, infusing him with exuberant vitality and endowing him with abilities similar to those of Senju Hashirama.

Now, the only difference between Yeruashi and Senju Hashirama was that he was not a reincarnation of Asura.

From a personal chakra standpoint, without the support of Asura chakra, Yeruashi is certainly inferior to Hashirama in terms of chakra volume, but don't forget that he is the Jinchuriki of the Kyubi and, given the fox chakra, in terms of chakra volume, Yeruashi's current chakra even surpasses Hashirama.

If he wanted to.

He can even mix Earth and Water attribute chakra to try to develop Kekkei Genkai Mokuton, but it should take some time and will not have a significant effect on his strength, so Yeruashi did not wish to do so.

After fully developing the Sage Body, he will reach the absolute peak below the level of the Six Paths in all aspects except spiritual power.

Relying on his time-type abilities, he should be able to fully fight an opponent at the Six Path level, but that, of course, would depend on how strong the opponent was at the Six Path level.

Of course, there are weak and strong representatives at the Six Paths level.

According to Yeruashi, Sasuke and Naruto, who each inherited half of the Six Path Sage's chakra, were in the first stage of the Six Path level, and Uchiha Madara, who became the Jinchuriki of the Jubi, was in the second stage.

But Kaguya may not have been in the third stage, because looking at Momoshiki's strength, you can safely say that she is stronger than him.

It seems that Kaguya's plan to create the White Zetsu succeeded, they actually became his army, only not for battle, but for chakra extraction.

After absorbing the chakra of the humans and the White Zetsu, Kaguya surpassed Momoshiki in overall strength. Although Momoshiki has an outrageous ability to stop time, but it relies on the power of his Dojutsu, and the control effect of this ability has a clear limit, even Sasuke, who has the Rinnegan, was not completely frozen, let alone Kaguya at the peak of his power.

Therefore.

According to Yeruashi's understanding, Momoshiki's power is at the third stage of the Six Paths level, and Kaguya's power is at the fourth stage.

The third stage of the Six Paths level is a major obstacle.

Naruto and Sasuke, who had reached the Six Paths level, were affected by Momoshiki's time-stopping effect, so Yeruashi, who had not yet reached the Six Paths level, would definitely not be able to get rid of the shackle. His encounter with Momoshiki would probably end in instant death, of course, if Momoshiki didn't try to 'talk him to death', but that would only delay the inevitable.

Right now, Yeruashi is not afraid to face the opponent of the first stage of the Six Paths level, in fact, it is hard to say who will emerge victorious from such a battle.

When facing someone in the second stage of the Six Paths level, it is best to simply run away.

Although you probably won't die, there will be no hope of winning either.

"It is worth traveling to the moon once the Sage Body is complete. If there is no hope of obtaining the Tenseigan, there is only the step-by-step development of the Sharingan left."

Yeruashi muttered.

Right now.

Once the Rinnegan or Tenseigan would be used to compensate for the lack of spiritual power, he would be able to advance smoothly and steadily to the level of the Six Paths.

Given the most powerful abilities of the illusory clock, right after reaching the Six Paths level, according to pure combat power, Yeruashi will immediately reach the second stage of the Six Paths level.

With him in this world, it will not be easy to resurrect Kaguya.

But Momoshiki and Kinshiki, as well as Urashiki Ōtsutsuki, will inevitably arrive in this world, and Yeruashi will have to fight them sooner or later.
