Chapter 162:
"Crescent Eyed Reaper, this alias is quite appropriate." Tsunade said softly, remembering Akira's appearance on the battlefield.
The alias 'Crescent Eyed Reaper' is not given arbitrarily. Previous names such as Konoha's Rising Star, etc; are all named after the feat he had done. At the beginning, Chiyo thought that Akira would become Konoha's younger generation star and that's why she gave the alias 'Konoha Rising Star'
But now, with the way he killed so many enemy ninjas mercilessly and brutally, coupled with the awakening of the mangekyo sharingan, that's why Akira is called the 'Crescent Eyed Reaper'.
'Crecent Eyed Reaper'
Akira pondered about this alias and found that he like how it sound.
"The war is still ongoing and the battlefield is still very chaotic. Konan, Yahiko and Nagato, the three of you don't carelessly run around, stay at the base at all time, I will let someone take care of you three." Akira give out the instructions.
Akira worried about the safety of the three kids. After all, the three kids hadn't grown up yet and even the strongest Nagato was not even strong enough to put up a fight against a ordinary jonin. Without enough strength, they can't protect themselves in that brutal and cruel battlefield. In addition, Akira didn't want other people to discover the secret of Nagato's rinnegan, so he simply hid them inside the base.
"Hai." Of course, Yahiko and Nagato had no objection. Nagato's red hair covered his rinnegan and they were not afraid of being easily discovered by others.
"Konan, Yahiko and Nagato, you three go down first." Akira shooed them away. He knew that Jiraiya, Orochimaru and others must have something to discuss with him and it would not be convenient if the three kids stay here.
Konan and other two left according to Akira words. Before leaving, Konan boldly kissed Akira on the cheek before leaving with a silver bell-crisp like laughter.
Akira touched his cheek, while smiling slightly.
However Jiraiya only had a bitter smile, his eyes alternate between Akira and Tsunade, as he could sense something was going on between them. 'I am afraid the relationship between Akira and Tsunade... Haish, I'd better go find other beautiful women. As expected, Tsunade does not like me.' Jiraiya shook his head while thinking secretly.
"Akira, you are famous now, but the killing of Shirotsuchi also made you gained Iwa's wrath and grudge. Afterall Shirotsuchi is the younger brother of the third tsuchikage Onoki and is also a high-ranking member of Iwa. Now Iwa regard you as a nail in the eye*." Jiraiya also kindly reminded him. (*Chinese idiom for being the most hated person)
Of course Akira knew this, but now he and Iwa had already forged a irreconcilable feud. Perhaps ever since Akira killed the fifty Iwa force, he and Iwa had already completely forged a feud.
Inside the discussion room.
Akira, Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade sat down. After learning about the sad news of Nawaki's death, Jiraiya rushed back immediately, while Sakumo left the base here and returned to his line of defense. After all, now that the war is in full swing, Sakumo is just coming to support them and cannot stay here for too long.
Hence It is just Akira and the Sannin togther again.
Nawaki as Tsunade's younger brother, have very good relationship with the Sannin and Orochimaru had even taught him before. Everyone was silent for a while and Akira took the initiative to hold Tsunade's delicate little hand, as if giving Tsunade strength.
Tsunade's face blushed, her daze eyes regained her firmed and strong gaze. After she glanced at Akira, she suddenly feel recharged and had full of power. Tsunade adjusted her mood and said, "After this battle, Iwa and Konoha have become mortal enemy. Furthermore Suna and Iwa have seen how strong we are and it may actually encourage their alliance, thus we have to be more careful in the future."
Akira agrees with what Tsuande said.
After this battle, Suna and Iwa will be closer in the future. Since Akira killed Shirotsuchi and killed the fifty Iwa ninja force, while Iwa also killed Nawaki. The two sides hated each other and had became irreconcilable enemies.
As for Suna, Sakumo killed Sasori parents, making Chiyo held onto her grudge even today.
It can be said that the current Konoha is enemy against Iwa and Suna. Moreover Konoha's strength displayed has also made Iwa and Suna very jealous. As the so-called enemy's enemy is a friend, under such circ.u.mstances, Iwa and Suna are likely to unite again.
Jiraiya also glanced bitteely at the tightly held hands between Akira and Tsunade. He found that Tsunade was gradually recovering and said sourly: "It's not a big deal even if they work together. We won against them this time and we just have to continue to win the battle again."
Jiraiya can only say so much about the battle situation at this time . When he said these words, Akira couldn't help but roll his eyes: "This time we can win against Iwa and Suna, is largely because of the timely rescue. Moreover, the original alliance of Suna and Iwa was loose and it was just a temporary coalition. If the two villages are really united, we will definitely face stronger opposition."
Afterall Suna and Iwa are two big villages. Once the two big village work together, Konoha will really find it hard to match. Otherwise, how could this war last so long, if Konoha could be able to get rid of it directly.
Akira curled his lips and looked at Jiraiya and said, "is there something wrong with your head!"
After being complained by Akira, Jiraiya's face flushed, the corners of his mouth twitched and he coughed to hide his embarrassment.
"Our number of ninjas is too small, but fortunately, in terms of high-end combat power, we are not inferior to the two villages." Orochimaru said lightly, giving Akira a special look.
Akira's current strength is strong enough to compete with ordinary kage-level powerhouses.
Of course, there are strong and weak kage-level ninjas and the difference is huge. For example, the third tsuchikage, who have the powerful kekkei tota particle style bloodline, can be called one of the best in kage level, whereas there are also relatively weaker kage level ninja. For example, the current Sannin are all initially entering the kage level stage and Akira is the same.
Of course, Akira and the Sannin still have a lot of room for growth in the future and the Sannin is very strong in the later stages. Needless to say, Akira just awakened the mangekyo sharingan and he hasn't fully grasped the use of of his ocular power. Once Akira gradually familiarize with its strength and grow stronger, his future growth will be even more limitless.
"How about this, if there is any suspicious movement from the enemy, let me deal with it. What do you think?" Akira looked at the Sannin.
"You?" For a while, Orochimaru and Jiraiya were both surprised that Akira would suddenly decide like this.
Tsunade's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of worry as well.
Akira's decision is really a bit bold.
