Escape From Konoha

March, the early spring season.

In an uninhabited hilly area in the country of grass, the final battle between Konoha and Iwakide begins.

Having lost a lot of supplies, Iwakushi made a desperate plan.

In the face of Iwayin's undisguised general attack, the Konoha troops in the Country of Grass can only bite the bullet and fight.

Iwagakut probably also saw that after the rise of the yellow flashing wave Feng Minato, the strategy of delaying time with Konoha was undoubtedly an extremely stupid strategy.

That's why he wanted to decide the outcome with Konoha at a time like this.

On the day of the battle, a clear sky was obscured by dark clouds, and there was a rumbling explosion from the battlefield.

The release of ninjutsu caused the earth to crack, the interweaving of fire and water, and wind and thunder raging on the battlefield.

On the tragic battlefield, a golden light penetrated deep into the core of Yanyin's troops, causing great chaos there.

When many Konoha ninjas pass by, the battle is often over.

When people saw that light, they already understood that it was a personal battle belonging to someone.

Under that extremely exaggerated speed, any defense seems weak and ridiculous.

Even the Ninja Iwagakushi did not expect that a yellow flash that only brought a little threat back then would become Iwagakushi's confidant today.

Their earth escape strategy is simply unable to cope with the yellow flash of space-time ninjutsu.

That was already the speed of the inhuman realm.

In the eyes of Iwagakushi ninjas, Yellow Flash is undoubtedly the fastest ninja in the world.

After a long battle, the Iwagakushi Ninja was completely defeated.

Corpses, corpses, corpses, corpses everywhere you look.

Iwain's bloodstained ninja burst out hunting, and was also killed in battle, and his life was harvested by the yellow flashing wave Feng Minato.

On the battlefield, the yellow flash is a ruthless killing **** to the Iwagakushi ninjas.

Where the golden light shines, death is bound to come.

◎

The day after the battle, both Konoha and Iwagakushi were counting battle losses.

As the victor, Konoha, the number of casualties was lower than Iwagakushi. And one of the statistics is shocking, that is, of the approximately 1,500 Iwakaku ninjas killed in this battle, nearly two-thirds died at the hands of the yellow flash.

The fatal wounds of Tezhi Kuai's incision, as well as the distinctive signs shot with a spiral pill.

This statistic is astounding.

Even the Konoha ninja who was in charge of statistics was amazed at Minato's strength, and before he knew it, he had grown into the ranks of Konoha top ninjas.

Possessing stronger strength than Sannin, such rumors may not be groundless.

After the battle, Minato was unharmed, only the clothes were stained with a little dust, and his physical strength and chakra were consumed. Obviously, he could continue to fight.

If it wasn't for the Ninja Iwagakura retreating in time, I'm afraid...

Even if Konoha Ninja figured out this answer by himself, he felt that it was not something that a young man in his twenties could achieve.

"Watergate has important flaws."

Nara Shikahisa said to his friends Akimichi Choza and Yamanaka Kaiichi.

Inside the simple tent, there were only three of them.

Lu Jiu walked in from the outside and said such words as soon as he came in, with a very cautious look.

Dingzuo and Haiyi both looked at Lujiu with incomprehension.

Thanks to Minato's power, he was able to achieve a complete victory in this battle against Iwagakushi. As a ninja, it was already perfect.

Why did Shikahisa say that Minato is flawed?

"I just went to count the results of Watergate's battles on the battlefield in the past few years."

"Is there a problem? I don't think it's a fake record."

Ding Zuo said.

Lu Jiu shook his head and sighed in distress: "It's not that the victory is false, but that it is too real to be called a defect. The current Minato reminds me of Sakumojo who committed suicide a few years ago. Tolerate."

Ding Zuo and Hai Yi's expressions changed.

Hatake Sakumo is one of the few taboo names in Konoha that cannot be mentioned.

Not only himself, but also the names of the other three members of the former White Fang squad were deliberately erased from Konoha.

Although many people remember it, the top management has already ordered to downplay this matter.

"Lu Jiu, to put it simply, why do you mention Sakumo Joren?"

Hai Yi asked in confusion.

Shikahisa replied, "Because Minato and Sakumo Joinin are very similar, both belong to ninjas with very strong mobility, and one person is equivalent to a team."

"It is not good?"

"It's good to a certain extent. But Sakumo Junin is so powerful, he was one of the candidates for the fourth Hokage, but the biggest problem is... he doesn't have a team."

This is a bit outrageous.

However, Hatake Sakumo committed suicide, and the high-level officials suppressed all kinds of negative public opinions with absolute advantages. It also confirmed that Hatake Sakumo had a huge reputation in Konoha, but he did not have his own cronies and no real power. The event ended with little thunder and little rain.

"You mean..."

"I was also speculating before, why, as a ninja, Minato is so good, but his team is very weak. Through Minato's outstanding performance on this battlefield, and the comparison of his past records with Sakumo Jōnin, I found one of them. common ground.”

"What do they have in common?"

"Single stage."

Kakashi's face was serious.

Solo stage? Ding Zuo and Hai Yi seem to be enlightened but not enlightened.

"They have high-strength raiding ability, and the strength of one person is a force, which is equivalent to abandoning the assistance of the rest of the ninjas. They can complete the task alone. Before raiding the supply point of Yanyin, we and Kakashi only Responsible for blowing up the Kamabashi Bridge and attracting Yanyin's attention, Minato raided all the supply points of Yanyin alone, and completed the task perfectly."

In that mission, to be honest, Lu Jiu didn't feel any sense of participation, and the whole process belonged to the state of watching the play.

With Minato's strength, one person can do it very well.

It's not that Shikaku belittles his own abilities, it's the fact that it is.

Minato's personal light is too dazzling.

Being out of class is also a kind of sadness.

"To be too good will put pressure on the companions. At the same time, if one person completes the task, it will appear that the companions are incompetent. Minato may be able to obtain huge fame by relying on his own strength, but this kind of fame is like a castle in the air, which seems to have a very high status. High, but when you are really involved in the village affairs, the reputation without real power is meaningless."

Once such a person becomes Hokage, he must be a puppet.

Ding Zuo and Hai looked complicated and understood what Lu Jiu meant.

At the beginning, Hatake Sakumo needed three members to form the invincible White Fang team.

However, Minato, who is the yellow flash, is more thorough than the White Fang squad, and is truly a one-man army.

Because no one can keep up with his movements.

The ninjas who teamed up with him could only feel that their existence was superfluous and incompetent.

Minato was a well-deserved first in the two major operations to change the disadvantage of Konoha, the country of grass.

However, each of his actions was like a solo performance on stage.

People will admire and admire his strength, but they will not have a further sense of identification with him.

At least most of them could not identify with Watergate further.

At best, it's just the second Konoha White Fang.

"Watergate stands too high, so high that many people can only look up and respect it, but can't touch it, because it will hurt themselves."

Kakashi smiled wryly.

He never thought that Watergate had such a flaw.

To become a Hokage in the village, fame and strength are one aspect, and leadership is also very important.

In most of Watergate's actions, one person ends the battle alone.

This time, in the decisive battle with Iwakaku, it was Jiraiya, not Minato, who was in charge of the front-line command on the battlefield, so you can see the problem.

Watergate never showed his leadership.

Whether it is good or bad is an unknown.

The commanding ability of a leader is the best way to unite people's hearts and gather the team.

And Watergate... does not have these advantages, or in other words, there is no time and space to exert these advantages.

In contrast, Sannin can be said to have achieved the ultimate in this regard.

Especially Orochimaru, who achieved a major victory in the Battle of the Land of Rain.

"Go and remind him."

Ding Zuo and Hai Yi proposed.

"not now."

"why?"

"I can think of things that the people above can't think of?"

Dingzuo and Haiyi were silent at Lujiu's words.

"This kind of thing may be what the above is happy to see. If you want to change, you can only change after Minato became Hokage. Now the reminder in the past will only arouse the vigilance of the people above, and make Minato more strict."

The fourth Hokage will only spawn between Minato and Orochimaru.

If the fourth Hokage is Orochimaru, it would not be a bad start for Shikaku.

Because Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, has a solid reputation and team foundation, after taking office as Hokage, no one will be available.

Although the three of them need a period of testing to make Orochimaru agree with their abilities.

If the fourth Hokage is not Orochimaru, but Minato, there are also advantages and disadvantages.

Watergate will be in a state of embarrassment when no one is available. When the three of them pass by, they can directly approach the core layer and become the first team of Watergate.

The disadvantage is that they must always face the political suppression of the three generations of Hokage.

This is not an easy task.

"Is that so?"

Ding Zuo and Hai Yi sighed.

They never thought that the situation in the village would be so complicated.

"Besides... Maybe Minato himself has noticed it."

Lu Jiu smiled happily.

"What? Watergate... He noticed it himself? Then why..."

Ding Zuo's eyes widened.

Did Minato himself notice it?

"As a person involved, I must have more foresight than someone like me who relies on intelligence gathering to make guesses. After all, Minato's thinking ability is not weak. If he perceives something himself, but deliberately maintains the current state unchanged, Our jobs will be much easier then.”

Without the city government, no major event can be achieved.

Only fame without real power is really useless, but fame is the best foundation.

It is also a way to break through a disadvantaged position by laying a solid foundation for fame and then turning it into real power.

If Watergate is really the kind of genius he imagined, maybe everything he is doing now is preparing for a certain goal in advance.

This is the best.

But whether Minato noticed or not, Lu Jiu wasn't sure, everything was just speculation.

According to the candidates of the four generations of Hokage, he planned two different plans.

One is for Orochimaru, and the other is for Watergate.

"What shall we do next?"

Ding Zuo looked at Lu Jiu.

"Iwain should have been afraid of Minato's power, and with the loss of a lot of supplies, the stalemate in the long-term battle is no longer established. If you are smarter, you will soon send someone over to declare a truce."

Lu Jiu touched his chin and answered like this.

"It seems that only Yunyin is left."

"Yeah, Yunyin's side... But it's a tough battle. Now waiting for the village's notification, if Minato is transferred to Yunyin's battlefield next, and then returns from the battlefield victoriously, there is no doubt that the fourth generation of Hokage will be the position of Hokage. It's Watergate."

So, success or failure is here.

This will also determine which side of the three of them, Zhuludie, stand on.

◎

There were four people sitting in a conference room in the Hokage Building.

The three generations of Hokage Sarutobi Hiyazaki.

Shimura Danzo, the leader of the root group.

Consultant Mito Gate Yan, transferred to Koharu.

"Iwayin is willing to sign an armistice agreement with our Konoha. They proposed the same conditions of non-compensation as Sandyin. As the defeated party, they also suffered heavy losses. I have already agreed with Iwayin's decision."

Rizhan looked at the three former comrades-in-arms and today's colleagues, and said these words.

Iwagakushi's armistice agreement was submitted this morning.

Knowing Iwayin's intention to stop fighting, Hizan also expected this to happen, and didn't want to spend any more time with Iwayin.

Although Yanyin launched an attack on the Kingdom of Fire at the beginning, and looted a lot in the Kingdom of Fire, causing the Kingdom of Fire to lose a lot, but if the investigation goes on, Yanyin will definitely insist on not letting go. If the war continues, some of the gains will outweigh the losses.

"Humph."

Danzo gave a gloomy snort, just protesting his dissatisfaction, and he had no other demands.

No matter how much he protests, Niizhan will never change this decision because of him.

As the victor, allowing the defeated party to not pay any compensation, in Danzo's view, this is too much of a child's play about war.

In this war, Konoha, who fought against three Ninja villages, suffered more than any Ninja village.

Mito Gate Yan and Chuan Koharu just kept silent and did not answer.

"Next, I plan to transfer Minato to the Yunyin battlefield. Yunyin ninjas are good at speed combat, and the fourth-generation Raikage is also a master of the instant body technique. Minato, who masters the technique of flying thunder god, also wins with speed. The best choice for the Cloud Hidden Ninja."

For this reason, Hiyazaki let Minato intervene in the Yunyin battlefield.

"That is to say, is Watergate going to replace the commanding position for the wind? Will it be a bit risky to do so? After all, he is only twenty-two years old this year."

Turning to bed, Koharu seems to be a little worried about Minato's age and will not be able to do a good job of commanding.

"Jiraiya and the others were about the same age when they were commanding battles in the Land of Rain."

Danzo said with a cold face.

"That time was different from now."

"If you say no, you can transfer Orochimaru. His command ability is recognized by most ninjas in the village, and he will never disappoint you."

Turning to bed, Xiaochun was speechless, his lips twitched twice, unable to say anything to refute.

Mito Menyan coughed and opened up to help Xiaochun: "We are discussing Minato now, and we have no connection with Orochimaru. Besides, Orochimaru also has important work to do now. Xiaochun is right, let Minato take the place. Kaze's command position is too risky, Minato has never commanded so many ninjas before, and as the deputy commander of Jiraiya, there is basically no room for him to play. Now he suddenly gave the command position of Kaze to him, maybe It's going to add a lot of mess."

Danzo does not express his views.

But I also understand that Mito Menyan does not allow Minato to be the commander, not only because the other party is young and inexperienced, but there are other more important reasons.

Battlefield commanders can only gain experience through training, and they did so step by step back then.

More recently, Sannin has also come one step at a time.

Because he was young and worried about command mistakes, he didn't give the opponent a chance to exercise. In Danzo's eyes, Mito Gate Yan's reason was really untenable.

"Indeed, Minato is too young. If Minato takes the position of taking the wind, it will inevitably make many people unconvinced. Moreover, Minato's ninjutsu characteristics are not suitable for the commander's position, so he must fully use his abilities. Let him provide side support to the battlefield in the form of a team. Kakashi under his command is also an excellent jōnin, and I will arrange for two more jōnin to join in to form a new watergate team. "

Turning to bed Koharu and Mito Kazuya's doubts and denials of Minato, Hiyazaki made up his mind and asked Minato to support the Konoha troops on the Yunyin battlefield in the form of a team.

"I agree."

Turning to bed, Koharu and Mito Kazuya agreed with Niszhan one after another.

Immediately afterwards, Hizan looked at Danzo.

The other party had already stood up, and the exposed left eye burst out with a cold and cold light, and the aura on his body became more and more terrifying.

"You don't need to ask me to attend such a boring meeting in the future. I won't say much else. I just hope that you can control this second white-toothed blade and make no more mistakes."

After speaking, Danzo glanced at the three of them and walked out of the conference room on his own.

The three of them sat there awkwardly, not knowing what to say for a while.

◎

April.

Iwayin and Konoha reached an armistice agreement, Konoha did not pursue any compensation liability for Iwayin, and ended peacefully.

Afterwards, Konoha and Yunyin immediately started a full-scale war, which once again attracted the attention of all countries in the ninja world.

At the same time, the land of ghosts welcomes a special guest.

In the No. 1 military region where Ziyuan City belongs, in a certain conference room, two people are sitting opposite each other, with a tea table placed in the middle, with warm tea, some fruits and cakes on it.

Apart from the two of them, no one else was present in the conference room.

"I didn't expect you to come here at such a time. Why, are things in Wuyin Village finished?"

Shiraishi looked at the baby-faced man sitting across from him.

The purple-red demon pupils and the sutured wound under the left eye all confirmed the identity of the other party.

Tangerine Yakura.

A trusted confidant of Mizukage, the third generation of Mizukage, in Kiriyin Village, he is a well-known figure in the ninja world.

At present, he is in a state of cooperation with Shiraishi, but the two sides have only reached a preliminary cooperation. As for further cooperation, it needs to be carried out in depth after Yakura takes control of Kiriyin.

After all, the current Yakura has a lot of power in Kiriyin Village, but there are still many constraints.

For example, the suspicion of Mizukage Sandai himself, and the group of seven Ninja swordsmen led by the master of the big sword and the sword, the watermelon mountain puffer fish, are blatantly targeting Yakura.

"How is that possible, now is the critical moment. The health of the third generation is not as good as the day, but it has never been decided who the next Shuiying candidate will be, and those guys headed by Xiguashan have always implemented the blood fog policy in the village, which has caused I've been busy lately."

After Yakura took a sip of tea, he sighed and let out the depression in his heart.

"Do you want me to provide some help here? For example, to help you kill the watermelon mountain puffer fish."

Shiraishi believed that Yakura had such ability to deal with an aging three-generation Mizukage, but he might not be able to handle the watermelon mountain puffer fish at his prime with many minions.

"It's pointless to kill him now, instead it will startle the snake."

Yakura shook his head, his purplish red pupils showed a cold and stern light, and then said to Shiraishi: "The people from the Blood Mist Sect in Watermelon Mountain are backed by the great names and nobles of the Land of Water. The important thing is not just to suppress the Watermelon Mountain. They will also cut off all the minions of the daimyo and the nobles that stretched into Kiriyin."

When the one country, one village system was established, there were various contracts.

For example, the daimyo cannot interfere in the internal affairs of the Ninja Village for any reason, and the selection of the shadow needs the approval of the daimyo, but that is after the internal election of the Ninja Village, and it can be handed over to the daimyo for review.

Although the daimyo can put forward opinions on the succession of the shadow, the final choice is still in the hands of Shinobu.

In the same way, the ninjas of the Ninja Village should provide military power when the country is in trouble to repel the invading enemy.

There are many more such contracts.

The Daimyo of the Land of Water violated this contract, so it can only be done in secret. Once exposed, it will affect the stability of the one country, one village system.

At that time, in order to ensure the stability of the Ninja village within their own family, the other four major countries will inevitably condemn the daimyo of the country of water, making the country of water the target of public criticism.

And Yakura wanted to use the evidence that the daimyo and the nobles interfered in the internal affairs of Kirigakura Village, so that the daimyo and the nobles backed down.

If you can't make them feel real pain, just teach them a few lessons, and soon, they will come back and use various reasons to clamp down on Wuyin Village.

The land of water, one of the five great kingdoms, has ushered in a bad situation where Daimyo and Shinobu cannot trust cooperation.

If you want Wuyin Village to form a long-term stable situation for a long time in the future, you must not be too hasty.

Now that the real snake has not yet come out of its hole, showing its power too early will only allow those poisonous snakes to hide deeper and expose their reformist position.

Therefore, even if he knew that letting the watermelon mountain puffer fish and others continue to misbehave in Wuyin Village, the power of Wuyin Village would be weakened day by day, and Yakura would pretend to be invisible and even participate in it, just to wait for the time to come. , give the enemy a fatal blow, cut the grass and remove the roots.

"In this way, Wuyin Village will suffer heavy losses."

Shiraishi said with a frown.

Yakura replied with a smile: "This is also a price. Now I do have the power to overthrow the Blood Mist faction, but I can't reform it completely, because the real enemy has not been revealed. I don't want to let the fog hide in the sky just for a moment's pleasure. In the next ten years, they will all be caught in an extremely terrifying infighting."

It is also a sacrifice, he will definitely choose the method with the least sacrifice and the strongest stability.

"how long it takes?"

"It won't be more than three years. To be honest, without your help, I plan to start this year. Now I just want to play a big game. Let the daimyo and those nobles know what the price of pain is."

"That's fine. After all, because of the previous war, the other four villages suffered heavy losses. When we were in action, even if Kirigakura fell into a weak period, they wouldn't have the ability to come and make trouble."

In less than three years, it may be a few months, a year, or two years. This time is not very long for Shiraishi.

Yakura's proposal is also more reasonable.

If he starts to act now, he will not be able to cut down the grass and root, or cause Kirigakura's interior to fall into chaos for a long time. This is not only what Yagura does not want, but Shiraishi also does not want to see this situation.

"Iwakin signed an armistice with Konoha not long ago and quit the battle stage. Now only Konoha and Yunyin are left to hold on. Who do you think will win?"

Yakura asked.

"Konoha."

Shiraishi answered without hesitation.

"It seems that you have great confidence in that yellow flash. As far as I know, the younger brother of the fourth Raikage also went to the battlefield at this moment, he is the eight-tailed man Zhuri. If the two of them join forces, I am afraid that the yellow flash may not be able to get rid of them. Benefit in your hands.”

Yakura has his own intelligence channels, and he also pays close attention to Yun Yin's side.

"Do you think Konoha will lose?"

Yakura responded with a smile: "No, I want to explain that if Konoha wants to win, he will pay a considerable price."

"What a sly answer."

"This Ninja World War is short, but the overall scale of the war is larger than the last Ninja World War. After that, the international situation will probably change a lot~www.readwn.com~ When do you plan to The Kingdom of Ghosts officially intervenes?"

Yakura then asked this question and looked at Shiraishi inquiringly.

Everything in the country of ghosts will surface sooner or later, and it is impossible to sleep underwater forever.

"I'm considering it. I need to find a suitable entry point."

Shiraishi said meaningfully.

Yakura stood up from the seat and said, "No matter which country you start with, at that time, the neutral status of the country of ghosts will be revoked. I can guarantee that Kirikage will not make a move, and Konoha, who is the farthest from the country of ghosts, will be powerless. .But Sandyin, Iwayin and Yunyin may not be the case, you have to prepare in advance. If it doesn't work, it will directly trigger the Fourth Ninja World War."

"Infiltrating the inside of the five major kingdoms is the work of Kiriyin, and we will solve the matter of the country of ghosts by ourselves. Since you are worried, then I will give you this answer. My decision is this."

At some point in Shiraishi's hand, a kunai appeared in his hand, and he threw it out, brushed past Yakura's ear, and stabbed into the wall behind Yakura with a ding.

Yakura turned his head to see that there was an incomparably precise map of the ninja world painted on the wall.

What Kunai stabbed was in the middle of the country of the wind, the largest territory of the ninja world.

"It's a pleasure to work with, Mr. Yakura."
