As a Hokage, I don't dare to be a loyal minister of Konoha!

Chapter 46 Konoha understands the king.

Ninja world.

The war between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Thunder has begun.

Although the Raikage used surprise tactics to gain the upper hand at the beginning and successfully broke through Konoha's two lines of defense, as the battle line lengthened and Konoha recovered and launched a counterattack, the advancement of the frontal battlefield naturally slowed down.

Even though the Raikage himself made a vow to drink a celebratory drink in Konoha ten days later, and his heroic mood infected the ninjas of Kumogakure Village, the level of resistance from Konoha was still beyond their expectations. .

The battle situation also changed from one-sided at the beginning to a stalemate on the frontal battlefield.

But overall, Yunyin Village, as the attacker, still holds the initiative.

Even though Konoha was not taken down in one wave, the Raikage was not discouraged. He fought steadily and never made any rash advances. This strategy also made the Konoha side extremely uncomfortable. The entire battlefield also turned into a huge meat grinder due to repeated confrontations. It was cruel. The war escalated across the board.

Now, it’s time to compete between the two villages for their endurance and heritage!
Whoever can't hold back first will lose!
Both the Raikage and the old village chief knew this.

But Cloud Hidden Village can afford the energy consumption, and Konoha, which has experienced the previous all-out war and the Nine-Tails Rebellion, is really tortured.

So while the Richeng clan leader was doing his business in the sky, our old village chief also began to sweat profusely, worrying about the battle situation on the front line.

Without him.

The pressure on Konoha's side is too great!
As the war spread, a battle report and the corpses of Konoha ninjas were sent back to the village, and the gloomy atmosphere over Konoha became more and more serious.

The villagers stood at the entrance of the village every day, looking forward to it, but what they waited for were the bodies of their relatives and friends.

The cruel war shows that those who can be sent back with whole corpses are the lucky ones on the battlefield.

Most of the sacrificed ninjas cannot be recovered.

"War"

A corner at the entrance of Konoha Village.

Uchiha Itachi looked at the familiar faces being sent back with compassion, as well as the wounded who were sent back with missing arms and legs on stretchers.

Even though he was lucky enough to go to the front line with his father during the previous war, he was younger than he is now and could think of less.

Plus he was in his father's arms at the time.

The impact is far less than this time.

His overdeveloped cerebellum didn't understand. Apart from bringing death to both sides, what else could be gained from the coming of these wars?
Kumogakure underestimated Konoha.

Konoha also underestimated the resilience and hard work of Kumogakure Village.

When the war begins to tilt towards a tug-of-war, it may be fatal for Konoha.

The still young Itachi God could tell from the atmosphere in the village and the casualties on the front lines that this war was extremely unfavorable to Konoha, but he was not proud.

He frowned at the moment, thinking about how if he were Hokage, he should put out the war, make the ninja world peaceful, and make everyone happy. It would not be a big problem to sacrifice his parents for this. As a saint, he must do this.

But as soon as he fell into thinking, the sound of cursing in the distance interrupted his thoughts.

Looking up, a look of relief appeared on Itachi's face.

Well, he's not the only one worrying about the village.

But
God knows how they got together!

"This is not a healthy will of fire. If my father went to the front line in person, so many people would never die!"

"Itachi, do you think so or not?"

Asuma, the Itachi god, sat down next to him with a murmur, then took out a flower stick, lit it for himself, and took a deep sip.

"Lord Hokage, you probably have your own reasons."

Itachi was silent for a moment. Although he agreed with Asuma's words, he didn't know what the Hokage was thinking, and he didn't dare to speak nonsense.

As the eldest son of Uchiha Fugaku and the eldest son of the Uchiha clan, he seems to be able to understand some of the ideological conflicts between his clan and the village.

There are some things that he doesn't dare to think deeply about now, and he can't understand them. He just feels that his people are too selfish.

The young Itachi God only believed what he saw with his own eyes.

He saw his tribesmen showing off in a high-profile manner every day, which was obviously inappropriate when the village was in crisis, but his father was very indulgent towards the tribesmen's behavior. "There's no need to say those nice words, mud can't hold up the wall."

Asuma shook his head, with a melancholy look on his face, and then took out another flower and handed it to Itachi.

"Have one?"

This really can't come.

Itachi declined Asuma-san's kindness and quickly shook his head.

The atmosphere became silent, and the two people who didn't like their father finally got together.

The cause of the matter is often very simple. An accidental contact made the rebellious Asuma shocked by Itachi's ideas. Itachi was also very happy to have a friend who was willing to listen to his ideas.

Even if these two people are, one is the eldest son of the Uchiha clan and the other is the son of the Hokage.

But when they communicate together, they often forget their own identities.

After a few days, both of them felt that they had benefited a lot from the conversation.

Of course, it was Sarutobi Asuma who gained more.

He didn't know anything else, but after being in contact with Itachi for a while, he found that he was becoming more and more dissatisfied with his own people and his father, and this dissatisfaction resonated with Itachi.

In short.

It's hard for you to imagine what kind of ending will happen if these two people come together. If the Rise clan leader sees this scene, he will probably pray silently for the Sarutobi clan.
"Didn't I tell him to stay away from Uchiha Itachi?"

far away.

After having just experienced an exciting and morale-boosting speech, which calmed the villagers' emotions.

The sweaty Hiruzen Sarutobi shook the sweat off his body and finally had time to light up his cigarette bag and take a puff.

But upon taking a quick look, his old face darkened, and a nameless anger arose in his heart.

His second son really doesn't let himself worry!

I have no idea how much of an impact being the son of the Hokage and talking nonsense outside will have on me!
"Have the identities of those who secretly contacted Asma been identified?"

With a stern face, the old village chief looked at Yuhi Zhenhong next to him and asked.

"Uh"

Xiri Zhenhong pondered for a moment, looking like he was hesitant to speak.

"Just say it."

The old village chief waved his hand to signal him to boldly say that the people on the left and right were just Uchiha or Hyuga clan members!
The war situation was not optimistic, but he could withstand it for the time being. He believed that as long as he persisted, Yunyin Village would retreat sooner or later. After all, as the attacker, Yunyin Village's supply pressure was much greater than that of Konoha, and the consumption was also greater.

As long as he can block the attack of Yunyin Village, this will be his contribution to the Third Hokage!

Now write down the little tricks some people did during the war. When the war is over, it will be time to settle the scores!
"Brothers from the sixth team said that the people who came into contact with Master Asma finally disappeared at the root base."

No wonder Yuhi Zhenhong hesitated to speak.

After all, the unspoken rules of Konoha involve Danzo-sama, so there is no need to continue the investigation!

"fart!"

But this time, the old village chief couldn't hold himself any longer and chose to yell.
"Danzo has gone to the front line, and you are still blaming him?! Do these people think I am a fool?!"

Then just think you are a fool, why are you so angry?
Yuhi Zhenhong stepped aside expressionlessly.

And at the same time.

At the border of the Land of Fire, Konoha's commanders were gathering together.

Among them, the former guilty man Shimura Danzo!
Suddenly Danzo seemed to feel something and took a deep breath uncontrollably.
"Ah!"

When a sneeze hit Nara Shikaku's face hard, Danzo, who had regained his composure, wiped his face, then showed a confident smile and pointed at the map with the hand he was wiping his nose with.
"No one knows war better than me!"

"This battle must be won!"
