Just as Raikage had predicted.
The Cloud Hidden Army sailed at sea for eight days.
The news eventually spread, shaking the entire ninja world.
Some small countries and small ninja villages were particularly alarmed because the Cloud Village operation was large in scale and had taken away at least five thousand troops.
The two Jinchūriki, along with Raikage A, all headed to Kirigakure.
This means that the Hidden Cloud Village may intend to destroy the Hidden Mist Village and seize the Land of Water.
Fortunately, the two Jinchūriki of Kumogakure are currently in a stalemate on the outer island of Kirigakure, and it seems they will wait for the Kumogakure army to arrive before launching a further offensive.
Based on the timeline, the Cloud Hidden Fleet should have already traveled halfway.
On one hand, Onoki ordered his subordinates to prepare for battle, and on the other hand, he sent his messenger, Taka, to make contact with Uchiha Kawasaki.
Sunagakure had also planned to secretly prepare for war, but after Chiyo relayed Kawasaki's message,
After much deliberation, Luo Sha suspended the operation and only sent out a large number of spies.
Konoha also recalled some elites who were out on missions.
In an instant, the entire ninja world was in turmoil, all waiting for the first clash after the Cloud Village arrived at the Mist Village.
.....
Jue is still lurking at a depth of 200 meters on the seabed, but due to the water pressure, he has few opportunities to go out and explore.
After observing for several days, he gained some understanding of the large-scale magic array that Wuyin had set up underwater.
This magic array can break the water pressure balance at the bottom of the sea (Nuo Wang Zhao), and will generate destructive giant waves on the sea surface.
That is, it triggered a tsunami.
It seems that the Fifth Mizukage, Terumi Mei, is no ordinary person either.
It's unknown how much damage this will cause to the Cloud Village's ships.
Underwater, the ability to perceive is severely limited due to water pressure.
This allowed Zetsu to easily gather intelligence while standing next to Mei Terumi without being detected.
However, these past few days, Terumi Mei has been completely focused on the underwater magic array, and there's been no important intelligence to be gathered.
Just as Jue was preparing to leave, Qing appeared.
Fortunately, Qing wasn't used to constantly using his white eye, otherwise Jue would have been exposed.
"Lord Mizukage, Mr. Waterfall has helped us recall several talented individuals from Kirigakure."
"Who is there?"
Mei Terumi looked exhausted, with dark circles under her eyes.
But hearing that some talented people had been recalled still lifted my spirits.
Aobo reported: "Hibiki Juzo, Momochi Zabuza, and Hozuki Suigetsu, Hozuki Mangetsu's younger brother."
Mei Terumi's eyes lit up: "Excellent! Where did Mr. Waterfall recall them?"
Qing said helplessly, "All three of them are from the Akatsuki organization."
Mei Terumi was taken aback.
The one lurking underground was equally surprised. What was going on?
Did the Flying Waterfall organization poach people from the Dawn organization to give to the Hidden Mist Village?
What Qing said next shocked Jue greatly.
"The Uchiha sent Itachi and Shisui to the front line to assist Kumogakure, but in reality, both of them were spies for the Waterfall."
Jue Xin Shen trembled violently, inadvertently revealing a trace of his aura, which was immediately detected by Qing.
Qing's eyes lit up: "Who is it?!"
A single figure (37 humanoid chakra escaped at incredible speed) could not be caught.
"Lord Mizukage, we're being monitored."
Mei Terumi's heart sank. How long had she been monitored? How much intelligence had the other side stolen?
Which force is behind this?
Two hundred meters below the seabed.
Mei Terumi's expression was grim: "I don't know which faction it is, but we must activate the magic array immediately."
Ao said somewhat unwillingly, "Lord Mizukage, launching a giant wave now is not enough to completely destroy the Cloud Village fleet."
Mei Terumi shook her head: "We can't take the risk. If the other side is a spy from Kumogakure, and they become prepared, all our preparations will be in vain."
Chapter 145 Orochimaru! Kawasaki's Kotoamatsukami! The Powerful Uchiha!
Qing gritted his teeth and nodded: "Then I'll go down and make the arrangements."
Mei Terumi gazed into the distance, where the path from which Kumogakure had come was leading.
Yunyin, you're lucky.
Having made up her mind, Mei Terumi immediately summoned the exploration team.
When will the Cloud Hidden Fleet arrive here?
The leader of the reconnaissance team was Oto, an elite Jonin.
He swam closer and said, "Lord Mizukage, it's still a hundred li to reach the optimal position."
Mei Terumi frowned: "Prepare to dive and trigger the giant wave ahead of schedule."
Oto was taken aback: "Lord Mizukage, the damage suffered by the Cloud Village in that location was negligible. At most, a few ships would be destroyed. It's not worth it."
Mei Terumi shook her head: "The intelligence has been leaked. Activate the formation immediately."
Oto understood that if the information were leaked, all their efforts over the past few months would be in vain.
Oto angrily replied, "Yes!"
Soon after, the order was issued to the entire army.
The shrouded creatures in the deep sea received the order and headed to a safe location.
A select few began channeling chakra into the giant magic circle.
Nearby aquatic life fled in panic.
The mud and sand on the seabed were slowly stirred up, making the area below the surface of the sea blurry.
Mei Terumi emerged from the sea, stepped onto the water, and gazed ahead.
The sky is clear and the visibility is extremely high.
The underwater magic array has been fully activated, and a faint light shines through the seabed, with the water pressure constantly changing.
All the Fog Haunted took this opportunity to evacuate.
One by one, the cloaked beings swam out of the water and stood on the sea surface.
Everyone looked exhausted, as most of their chakra had been channeled into the formation.
If an enemy were to appear at this moment, they would be easy prey.
However, the formation activated by so many members of the Mist Village was quite effective.
The water in the sea ahead seemed to have been mixed with a coagulant, slowly becoming viscous, and all the seabirds around kept their distance.
It felt like some great disaster was about to strike.
The sea ahead began to ripple slowly, and as the underwater formation was activated, the ripples became more and more intense.
Suddenly, it was as if a hole had opened up in the seabed, and the sea surface in front of it suddenly caved in.
The entire sea surface began to sway, and as the seawater churned, waves surged one after another.
Then the sea surface seemed to be pushed and swayed by an invisible giant hand.
Gradually, this formed larger and more powerful waves.
The deafening roar reached the ears of the Hidden Mist Villagers with crystal clarity.
It made everyone dizzy and felt a tightness in their chest.
Mei Terumi and the other Hidden Mist Villagers had no choice but to retreat repeatedly.
The sea swayed and rocked, causing the figures of the Hidden Mist to rise and fall with it.
Looking at the fifty-meter-high waves forming in the distance, all the Hidden Mist were shocked.
The wave wasn't a single wave, but a continuous stream surging forward, and that was 967, precisely the direction of the Cloud Hidden Fleet.
The ships hidden in the clouds are cutting through the waves.
The Cloud Village fleet at sea relies on telescopes, summoning beasts, and reconnaissance ninjutsu to observe the sea area ahead.
They have been sailing safely at sea for nine days.
There were no major storms on the way, so everyone was quite relaxed.
Moreover, the weather was sunny and clear today, with excellent visibility, so I naturally felt there was no danger.
Suddenly, a series of eagle cries rang out, and the Cloud Hidden reconnaissance squad felt a chill run down their spines.
The reconnaissance team rushed to Lei Ying's office to report.
"Lord Raikage! A tsunami has appeared on the sea ahead! The waves are over twenty meters high and are rapidly approaching our fleet!"
Lei Yingai was shocked. This area of the sea was only a few hundred meters deep and there were no volcanoes, so how could there be a tsunami? "Issue the order! Abandon ship immediately! Get away from other ships."
The ship's speed was definitely not as fast as the ninja's, and by the time the ship sailed out of the tsunami's range, the waves would have already crashed onto it.
Upon receiving the order, the Cloud Village members were like a hornet's nest that had been stirred up.
Everyone started jumping off the boat and moving away from it.
But the waves were incredibly fast; from the moment the summoned beast spotted the wave until it struck the Cloud Village fleet.
In just two minutes, some people had already evacuated from the ship, while others had just received the order.
