Capítulo 181: Chapter 181, Karatachi Yagura.
As Team 7 entered the Land of Water, the course of the war there began to shift.
Upon learning of Konohagakure's deployment, the Uzumaki clan started a fighting retreat.
On one hand, they facilitated the evacuation of their elderly, weak, and women, while also planning to regroup with Konohagakure's reinforcements for a counterattack.
On the other hand, they aimed to deplete as much of Kirigakure's main force as possible during the process.
However, when the Uzumaki clan began their preparations to retreat, they were shocked to discover that Kirigakure's main force had also started to withdraw.
This turn of events genuinely baffled the Uzumaki clan.
But quickly, the Uzumaki clan came to their senses.
Regardless of why Kirigakure was retreating, even if they were heading back to Kirigakure to celebrate the Mizukage's birthday, they could not be allowed to have their way.
The Uzumaki clan was well aware that Konohagakure's Team 7 was now in the Land of Water!
Thus, a tug-of-war battle fully unfolded in the Land of Whirlpools.
The roles of hunter and prey subtly switched at this moment.
The scales of victory were tilting towards Konohagakure.
In stark contrast to the Land of Water battlefield was the Land of Thunder.
Even under the joint forces of Konohagakure's police force and Anbu, the overall strategy was to retreat, only because they had ventured too deep and were now just retreating to the Land of Hot Water.
Kumogakure would not let the Uchiha and Senju leave so easily; a large number of Kumogakure's elites doggedly pursued the Senju and Uchiha along the path of retreat.
The battlefields of the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth were relatively stable, with most movable resources being placed at the border of the Land of Fire.
Hokage disciples Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura had gone to the two battlefields, respectively.
Having the capacity to become Konohagakure's two great advisors in the original timeline, these two individuals indeed possessed some abilities.
On the battlefields of the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind, Konohagakure was generally on the defensive. They couldn't be said to be completely at ease, but they were holding their own.
In Senju Tobirama's plan, the breakthrough in the war lay in the battlefields of the Land of Water and the Land of Thunder.
After all, the masters present on these two battlefields were significantly superior to those on the battlefields of the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth.

Land of Water, Kirigakure Village.
"Yagura."
Mizukage looked at the ninja in front of him, who appeared to be a child, and softly called out.
Yagura heard this and slightly lowered his head, replying softly.
Although Yagura looked very young, he was actually nearly twenty years old this year.
At the same time, Karatachi Yagura was also the second most powerful ninja in Kirigakure, only after Mizukage.
"Can you take the Shadow Guard and the two Jinchuriki and eliminate those guys?"
The Third Mizukage asked Karatachi Yagura softly.
"Of course, but I might need the village's cooperation."
Karatachi Yagura replied without any hesitation.
Whether he could accomplish it or not, Karatachi Yagura wasn't entirely sure, but besides Mizukage, he was the only one left in the village who could lead the Shadow Guard.
"Don't disappoint me."
The Third Mizukage said softly to Karatachi Yagura in front of him.
"Mizukage-sama, if we leave, your safety..."
Karatachi Yagura hesitated for a moment, slightly worried, and said to Mizukage.
"No need to worry, the village is very safe."
The Third Mizukage shook his head and said to Karatachi Yagura.
If possible, Mizukage actually didn't want Karatachi Yagura to leave the village.
But there was no choice, it had been three days! Three whole days!
The supplies Kirigakure sent to the main force in the Land of Whirlpools hadn't delivered a single grain of food.
If they delayed any longer and allowed the reinforcements from Konohagakure to join the Uzumaki clan, Kirigakure would have no chance of victory.
So, Mizukage had to do everything to solve this problem!
"Leave it to me."
Karatachi Yagura nodded and slowly disappeared in front of Mizukage.
...
While Kirigakure was dealing with the Seventh Squad, Kumogakure wasn't foolishly entangled with Konohagakure either.
As a Kumogakure ninja arrived at Amegakure, Hanzo of the Salamander understood that the opportunity for Amegakure to enter the Second Great Ninja War had come.
"We also want to help Kumogakure, but Amegakure is too far from the Land of Hot Water."
Hanzo of the Salamander said with some difficulty to the Kumogakure envoy.
Although this statement was mainly to get benefits from Kumogakure, it wasn't entirely wrong.
For Amegakure to reach the Land of Hot Water, they would need to pass through the Land of Grass, the Land of Sound, the Land of Iron, and the Land of Waterfall.
Such a distance cannot be said to be short.
"Of course, considering the distance between your country and the Land of Hot Water, Raikage has made a promise. As long as the Konohagakure Police Force and Anbu stay in the Land of Hot Water during this battle, half of the Sharingan obtained will be given to Amegakure, and half of the six Ninja Swords will also be given to Amegakure, with Kumogakure having the priority to choose."
The Kumogakure envoy said with a smile to Hanzo of the Salamander.
During wartime, no one is stingy. After all, what can be possessed during wartime does not necessarily mean it can be kept during peacetime.
Before the major nations sit down to sign a ceasefire agreement, anything is possible.
"Alright, as expected of Kumogakure, Amegakure will set off today."
Hanzo of the Salamander nodded and agreed without hesitation.
At the same time, a transport unit targeting the Land of Whirlpools set off from Kirigakure once again.
On one of the few hills in the Land of Water, Raijin and his four companions silently watched the transport unit in front of them.
"The Three-Tails Jinchuriki and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki..."
Tsunade blinked and looked at Raijin beside her.
"What do you think, if we let them go and wait for them to get far away, then directly attack Kirigakure, would they be able to react?"
Orochimaru, with his hands folded and chin resting on his arms, looked at Raijin.
"Is it possible that if we start fighting here, the Mizukage will arrive directly on the battlefield?"
Raijin pursed his lips and said helplessly to his two teammates.
"Then should we retreat?"
Jiraiya raised his eyebrows. He admitted that Raijin and Orochimaru made a lot of sense.
And from what they said, it seemed like they wanted to retreat.
So, Jiraiya confidently spoke up, this time... there shouldn't be any mistake, right?
Actually, Jiraiya didn't really want to retreat, but since two people in the team had this idea, Jiraiya was willing to help take some of the pressure.
After all, they were companions, and the opponents were Jinchuriki and possibly the Mizukage.
It's not shameful.
"Huh? No way, is the Great Toad Sage scared?"
Raijin turned to look at Jiraiya.
Jiraiya was stunned.
Tsunade mercilessly added.
"Scared already?"
"Can't be, right?"
Orochimaru also glanced at Jiraiya.
