The Villages' reactions weren't quick; it wasn't until the next day that Amegakure was the first to agree.
"Nagato, from the intelligence Konoha provided, it's Madara. Do we really want to stand against him?" Konan asked with some concern after Nagato had Amegakure agree.
The mysterious masked man, Uchiha Madara—Nagato and Konan had never fully trusted him.
However, directly standing against him this time still caused Konan a wave of worry.
Moreover, so far, only Amegakure had agreed to launch military action against the Land of Demons.
"It's fine. It's a good opportunity for the Allied Shinobi Forces to measure Mr. Madara's capacity. Don't worry, at the very least, Konoha will stand with us."
Konoha, being the proposer, would naturally agree.
Later that afternoon, Sunagakure also approved the action, as the Land of Wind and the Land of Demons are not far apart.
Then, on the third day, Hidden Mist and Kumogakure also successively approved the action. After all, as former Five Great Ninja Villages, they had a thorough understanding of otherworldly demons.
The rest were some smaller countries and Villages. The Land of Bears immediately agreed after Sunagakure agreed on the second day, as it borders the Land of Demons.
Subsequently, a few small countries gradually agreed, including the Land of Grass, which consisted of Shinobi Villages that had been annihilated multiple times by Iwagakure's counterattacks.
They had nothing left to lose, so they weren't afraid. Since they didn't have many Ninja left, they actively responded to the Shinobi Alliance's call, thinking that even if they went, it would just be to cheer, and any gain was a bonus.
Most of the other small countries and small Shinobi Villages had no intention of participating.
That place, the Land of Demons, had nothing. As for specialties, did otherworldly demons, Monsters, and the Undead Legion count?
However, these small countries were also very self-aware, knowing they couldn't go against the big countries. While they didn't agree, they also didn't object, choosing to abstain with great discretion.
So, another two days passed, and on the morning of the fifth day.
Led by the Four Great Shinobi Villages' teams, along with Amegakure's team as their second brother, the Land of Bears' younger brother team, and four cheerleading squads, they formed a Ten-Country Allied Shinobi Forces.
They officially set off towards the Land of Demons to execute what Tomoki saw as a 'farming' operation, to save the Land of Demons and its miko.
"Uchiha Tomoki!" Obito, who was in the sealing grounds of the Monsters, gritted his teeth and shouted Tomoki's name.
The Allied Shinobi Forces made a big move, and the Shinobi Alliance did not hide it, instead issuing a grand announcement.
Obito also learned immediately that the Allied Shinobi Forces, who were about to flatten the Land of Demons, had already set out.
After thoroughly understanding the strength of the Allied Shinobi Forces, Obito felt a sense of powerlessness.
Moreover, knowing that Konoha was the initiator of this action, it was undoubtedly Tomoki's command.
After Obito returned to his original appearance, he no longer deliberately put on airs. Upon hearing this news, he didn't intentionally suppress his emotions and unconsciously called out Tomoki's name.
His tone was filled with strong emotion.
Although it wasn't respect or admiration, it wasn't far off.
How many times had this been?
Before, things went smoothly, whether it was controlling Hidden Mist or initiating the Nine-Tails Disturbance against Konoha.
At that time, Obito was full of vigor, feeling as if the Ninja World revolved in his hands.
Later, due to Danzo's death, Obito's thoughts stirred again, and it was from that moment on that Obito had been on a downward spiral.
He had narrowly escaped death multiple times, looking utterly disheveled. Now, even Kakashi, that good-for-nothing Obito had always looked down upon, could make him flee in disarray.
Recalling the past few years, Obito didn't know how he had endured.
He incited war using Hidden Mist; Hidden Mist lost.
He allied with Kumogakure to launch an attack; Kumogakure lost.
He used a changed-skin Iwagakure to act against Konoha; Iwagakure was removed from the Ninja World.
Now, he was holed up in the Land of Demons causing trouble, and as a result, the Land of Demons was about to be flattened.
Every time, Tomoki's presence was there.
Obito now felt that Tomoki was his lifelong enemy, the biggest obstacle to creating the dream world of Infinite Tsukuyomi.
If Tomoki knew Obito's thoughts, he would definitely scold Obito for being shameless and giving himself too much credit.
At first, Tomoki, who was anxious because of Obito's actions, didn't know how strong he was, and facing the altered plot, the unknown future was filled with confusion.
However, ever since the Kumogakure battle, he truly understood his own strength. Coupled with handling Konoha and Ninja World affairs with increasing ease, Tomoki no longer paid any attention to Obito.
He was even too lazy to bother with Obito's actions against Konoha, letting Kakashi handle it alone.
Disregard is the greatest arrogance!
And at this moment, the arrogance remained.
