"Everyone, either because of hatred, or because of position, or because of interests, or because of fame, in short, you have chosen to destroy Konoha with me, Madara Uchiha."
"As for how strong Konoha is now, I think you all know it without me having to say more..."
"So, no matter how much conflict you have with each other, I hope that at least in this mission, everyone can put aside their grudges and cooperate sincerely. Otherwise, your chance of survival will be very slim."
"This is the advice I, Madara Uchiha, give you."
After slowly saying this, Uchiha Madara turned around and gave Bai Zetsu a look that popped up next to his feet, causing the latter to immediately jump out of the ground and run straight down the cliff, obviously preparing to lead the way.
.
But just when Uchiha Madara wanted to keep up with White Zetsu, Ryoma suddenly asked: "Madara, why do you want to destroy Konoha?"
Hearing the confusion in Ryoma's tone, Uchiha Madara, who knew the character of the chief priest of the Evil God Cult very well, couldn't help but smile, and then did not look back, but ran downhill while leaving behind some faint words.
:
"I, Madara Uchiha, am here for peace."
The old voice lingering in the ears slowly dissipated. The words seemed to reveal an inexplicable and complex meaning, but there also seemed to be some kind of firm will filled in them, as if peace was really what the old man yearned for.
s things.
Although, no one present believed it.
But this is indeed Madara's true thoughts.
Whether it's for the Eye of the Moon project or for the almost foreseeable and extremely chaotic future of the ninja world.
It is imperative to weaken Konoha, disturb Konoha Kumogakure Alliance, and even eradicate Lei Luo.
…
Three days passed by in a hurry. On the edge of the pier by the Konoha River, a man and a woman were sitting here chatting in a low voice. When pedestrians saw their appearance, they unconsciously and quietly avoided the place.
"Minato, did your disciple pass the second exam?"
"Um."
"How was the fight?"
"This..." Looking at Kushina's excited face, Namikaze Minato couldn't think of a good adjective for a moment. After searching for a while, he finally couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"For the Kumogakure genin, that might be a disaster..."
The white teeth closed lightly and bit off the meatball in her mouth. Kushina suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Namikaze Minato without blinking. She said in surprise: "Disaster? Is that kid Kakashi so strong? He
Isn’t he only six years old this year?”
Namikaze Minato shook his head slightly, and moved his eyes to the river in front, staring at the clear water for a moment, and then replied softly: "Even from my point of view, Kakashi is enough to be called a genius.
.”
"The Art of Flying Thunder God..."
He just wanted to mention Kakashi's talent in space ninjutsu, but thinking about the transaction three days ago and the in-depth cooperation between Lei Luo and the Third Raikage, Namikaze Minato suddenly lost his mood.
Noticing that Kushina was still looking at him curiously, Namikaze Minato pondered for a few seconds, then said with a complicated expression: "Kushina, Kakashi was born in a good era."
"If Mr. Lei Luo hadn't been the Fourth Hokage, no matter how talented Kakashi was, it would have been impossible for him to have such a level of strength as the Flying Thunder God at his current age..."
"Rather than relying on his own ability to master it, it is better to say that Konoha's new policy gave him such an opportunity."
Keenly aware of the insincerity in Minato's words, Kushina couldn't help but feel even more strange. She subconsciously stopped her legs swinging back and forth, shook off the water droplets on her feet, and asked:
"Minato, what's wrong with you?"
"Why do I always feel that there is an inexplicable sourness in your tone?"
Kushina sharply pointed out Namikaze Minato's mood at the moment, which also made the latter's face stiffen slightly. He unconsciously looked sideways and looked into the red-haired girl's narrow eyes for a moment.
There really is nothing I can hide from Kushina...
Namikaze Minato thought so, and then thought for a moment, thinking that Kushina would definitely know about it later, he sighed deeply and decided to tell the truth about all the reasons:
"Kushina, after the Chuunin exams are over, the two of us will probably go to Kumogakure Village."
Her eyes suddenly widened, and Kushina couldn't help but cover her mouth slightly, looking at Namikaze Minato in surprise: "Go to Kumogakure Village? Why? Will the Yondaime agree to let us go?"
"The thing is like this..."
By the time Namikaze Minato finished telling what happened that day, Kushina had fallen into silence without realizing it:
This matter is very complicated, very complicated...
The Flying Thunder God Jutsu is a treasure left by the Second Hokage, and it is also the core of Minato's strength. Now the Hokage wants to give it away, or give it to Kumogakure Village, which has always been famous for its military strength in the ninja world.
Even if Konoha and Kumogakure are allies today, how can there be eternal friendship between countries and between ninja villages? Aren't Sunagakure and Iwagakure all allies of Konoha in the past?
Giving the Flying Thunder God's Technique to Yunyin Village is equivalent to supporting the enemy to a certain extent.
So, did Naruto do something wrong?
Although she wanted to say "Hokage is wrong" in her heart, Kushina also knew very well why Lei Luo did this.
What he does is not for himself, but for Konoha, to make Konoha stronger.
Even Kushina and Minato were the beneficiaries of this decision.
But... Kushina really couldn't make an accurate judgment on whether this approach was right or wrong at the expense of the overall interests of Konoha in exchange for the strength of the two jinchūriki being further enhanced.
If you can successfully become a perfect Jinchuuriki, then everything will be fine, and the negative impact of the leakage of the Flying Thunder God Technique can also be reduced, but what if the training in the real waterfall fails?
Lei Luo, why can he trust her, Kushina and Minato so much, and even risk the leakage of Konoha's core secrets to make a crazy gamble with Kumo Hidden Village?
Kushina couldn't give an answer.
In short, her mood at the moment was extremely complicated, entangled, and nervous. Along with it, there was a huge pressure that enveloped her body and mind like sea water.
At this moment, there was a touch on her shoulder. Kushina suddenly came back to her senses and looked up, just in time to see Namikaze Minato's comforting face. What she heard in her ears was a slightly helpless tone.
:
"Kushina, if I had known that you would behave like this, I wouldn't have told you."
Hearing this, Kushina pouted angrily and replied disapprovingly: "Even if you don't tell me now, I will know after a while. After all, we are the only jinchūriki in the village."
