Chapter 243: Interesting Balance of Tailed-Beasts

When Kumogakure used tailed-beast without caring about anything, the final direction of the war suddenly became confusing at this moment!

Wasn't Kumogakure's people afraid that Konoha would also use tailed-beast?

One must know that Konoha had the strongest tailed-beast!

However, Kumogakure had no chance of winning. If he didn't try to do something, then he could only accept the result of failure.

They were the ones who failed to steal the chicken!

Moreover, what they lost was not just this little bit of supplies. In order to catch Konoha, the blood and flesh on their bodies were almost gone!

Therefore, after receiving the information after the defeat, Raikage, regardless of everyone's objections, forcibly sent out the Two-Tailed Jinchurik, Yugito Nii to escort this batch of supplies to the frontline.

Raikage was also betting that Jinchuriki, who bet on Konoha, could not be of use!

After all, the news of Kyuubi going berserk and almost destroying Konoha had already spread.

If not for the fact that this matter had caused Konoha great damage, they, Kumogakure, would not have had the intention to attack Konoha.

Therefore, even if Konoha had hidden the information about Kyuubi and Jinchuriki very well, under such circumstances, whether or not Konoha dared to use Kyuubi would first be a question mark!

On this point, they, Kumogakure, did not have any pressure.

Yugito Nii was a Two-Talied Jinchuriki since she was two years old, she was now 16 years old. Not only was she able to proficiently borrow tailed-beast's power, but she was even able to transform tailed-beast with her own consciousness. SHe never showed any signs of going berserk and was widely recognized and respected by the villagers!

Under such circumstances, it was clearly most suitable for Yugito Nii to reverse the tide of the battle.

Moreover, besides being reckless, Raikage also had a meticulous side to him.

He knew that even if he mobilized tailed-beast, it would be impossible for him to win this battle with Konoha.

Therefore, he was only doing this to prevent himself from gaining nothing!

The Hokage wanted to force him to submit, and Raikage was also thinking the same way.

The peace agreement signed after a crushing defeat, and the peace that was achieved under "evenly-matched", naturally required a different price!

The former would cause Kumogakure, who was already greatly injured, to suffer another blow, while the latter might not need to pay much.

Even if Konoha was more eager to make peace, they could still ask for some compensation through the disguise of 'tough'!

All of this depended on the attitude of the Hokage!

......

After receiving Shikaku's urgent report, Sarutobi leaned back in his seat, exhausted. He sighed.

The thing he was most worried about happened.

Although using tailed-beast in the absence of war between the villages was an unspoken rule, unless they were facing a crisis that they had to use.

After all, once they did that, it would become a battle between tailed-beast, and no one was willing to accept that kind of destructive power. Perhaps the entire Ninja World would be destroyed.

At the same time, this was also one of the reasons why Minato kept repeating the words 'Tailed-Beast Balance' before he died.

However, even if someone really broke this unspoken rule and used tailed-beast in the war, they would not be punished.

This was because apart from the Takigakure that had seven tails, the remaining tailed-beast was under the control of the five great villages.

Although the five great villages had been fighting each other over the years, what did this actually mean?

The other Ninja Villages no longer had the qualifications to play cards with them on the same table.

So in the entire Ninja World, who had the qualifications to punish them?

Kirigakure, Komugakure, and Sunagakure had all been crippled in the previous war, and now they were too busy to care about themselves, so how could they care about such a trivial matter!

They wished for Kumogakure and Konoha to be as ruthless as possible, and it would be best if they were to get angry and perish together!

Wouldn't it be great if they could receive these 'inheritances' after they recovered?

Under such circumstances, it wasn't surprising that Kumogakure would be the first to use tailed-beast in a desperate situation.

If it was in the past, Sarutobi wouldn't even need to have a headache. Kumogakure's people dared to use tailed-beast, and it wasn't like they, Konoha, didn't have them!

Moreover, they, Konoha, had Kyuubi, who was the strongest among them, so they could fight against Kumogakure's two tails and eight tails by themselves.

Don't forget that Hashirama wanted to balance the strength of the five major countries, so he proposed to share the powerful tailed-beast with the five major countries to achieve tailed-beast's balance.

However, what made Sarutobi helpless now was that the previous Jinchuriki, Kushina, and Minato had died together. The new Jinchuriki, Naruto, was still a two-year-old child. Even Naruto didn't know his identity as Jinchuriki.

Therefore, it was unrealistic to use Kyuubi to fight against tailed-beast, who had been dispatched by Kumogakure!
