Chapter 956: Chapter 55: Declaration of War_5
Hakushi handed the declaration of war against the Land of Wind, signed with his name, to the personnel of the subordinate department in front of him.
"Yes."
With a slight bow to Hakushi, this ninja of the Land of Demons immediately left the office, quickly conveying Hakushi’s orders to all departments, and then announcing the Land of Demons military’s decision to every town within the nation’s borders.
And publicly declaring the official establishment of war between the Land of Demons and the Land of Wind.
The moment the Hidden Sand crossed Hell Valley in the Land of Bear and seized the territory of Windmill Town, it already meant that the Land of Demons could take necessary legitimate military action against the Land of Wind.
The reason for not immediately issuing the announcement was that Hakushi wanted to brew the atmosphere among the populace within the Land of Demons.
Faced with the unreasonable border-crossing and territorial occupation by Hidden Sand, the majority of people in the country were highly agitated, with most harboring discontent directed at the Land of Wind.
The fact that big countries bully small countries has long been an unspoken truth.
However, in the past, due to the protection of the Witch, the Land of Demons had never been invaded by foreign enemies except for demonic creatures, and although they looked down on the actions of big countries, they did not dare to criticize.
But now the unreasonable actions of big countries have severely damaged the national sovereignty of the Land of Demons, and not only the populace, but many nobles and merchants are also worried that if the Land of Demons is defeated in this war, their interests will also be compromised.
Although the conservatives hoped that the Witch would step forward and prioritize peace with the Land of Wind,
most of the nobles and merchants, while maintaining a pessimistic attitude, hoped that the military would take some action, at least not to lose too badly, so as not to cede too many interests to the Land of Wind in negotiations.
With the excellent business environment of the Land of Demons as a backing, their wealth was not only guaranteed but also increasingly abundant. If the Land of Demons were to fail in this war, it would surely have a huge impact on its commerce; the Land of Wind threatens not just the sovereignty but also the living space of the nobles and merchants.
Because the business environment of the Land of Demons is unique to them, there is currently no country in the Ninja Realm that can replace it.
And after such events, the local merchants and nobles of the Land of Demons will also realize the importance of having a strong military force.
Most importantly, the series of actions by the Land of Wind successfully mobilized the rebellious sentiment of most people domestically.
This is exactly what Hakushi most wanted to see.
In this way, declaring war on the Land of Wind has become a just war by all means.
Luring, declaring war, expansion.
The plan has now officially entered the second stage.
From localized conflict, officially transitioning to comprehensive conflict.
Preparing to transition from a passive beginning to actively initiating war.
"Conditions have been met, Ruri can officially set off from the Hidden Star Village now."
Hakushi slightly tilted his head, looking out the window, the pristine clouds floated under the blue sky, in the direction of the Land of Fire.
His name was signed on the declaration of war against the Land of Wind.
It was also the first time he publicly revealed the name of the leader of the Land of Demons’ military.
This matter will not take three days to reach the ears of the Konoha high-ups.
By then, who will come for negotiation?
Or will it be joint pressure from the other Ninja Villages?
Hakushi chuckled softly, sitting on the chair, calmly sipping a cup of tea, with no sense of tension, but speaking to the air.
"Well then, the task of guarding will be entrusted to you..."
Behind him, a figure appeared like a ghost.
Holding a long spear wrapped in white bandages, with densely painted black eyeballs on the white bandages, as if living.
"Yes, Father."
