Chapter 103: Is the Aburame Clan This Messy Too?
After leaving Kyoto in the Land of Rain far behind, Danzo issued his orders to Captain Kiken in the pouring rain before departing with his Root ninja.
Captain Kiken gathered his three squadron captains and laid out their mission.
"With the Hidden Rain Village unexpectedly joining the war, the village has prepared a two-pronged approach.
"First, on the frontal battlefield, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya are leading troops into the Land of Rain to annihilate the Hidden Rain Village's main forces.
"Second, we are attempting negotiations.
"Hanzo set a condition: he will only negotiate if we drive out the Sand ninja.
"Both the frontal battlefield and the negotiations are indispensable for our victory in this war.
"Based on the intelligence Hanzo provided, our brigade will head to the Yoshimizu River in the southern Land of Rain. We are to investigate the Sand's objective and expel their ninja from the country.
"The conflict with the Hidden Stone Village is the core of the second great ninja war. To execute a pincer attack on the Land of Earth from the north and south alongside the Hidden Cloud Village as quickly as possible, we must resolve the issue with the Rain ninja immediately.
