Chapter 227 Re-entry into the fog [seeking a monthly ticket]
The battlefield in the Kingdom of Rain is in emergency!
The battlefield of Taki country is in emergency!
The battlefield in Tang Country is in emergency!
Almost at the same time, three urgent pieces of information were placed on Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk!
Regarding this situation, neither Sarutobi Hiruzen himself nor the two consultants, Koharu and Mito Kaden, did not expect it or even reacted.
They calculated that after the three hidden villages knew about Konoha's feint, they would be angry and attack immediately. However, they did not expect that their attack time would be so unified and synchronized, as if they had agreed to let Konoha
There was a feeling of being caught off guard.
That's why the three parties were in a hurry.
But with the current situation in Konoha, there is simply no ability to support three battlefields at the same time. If they had this ability, they would undoubtedly have been able to get rid of the situation and predicament at this time.
The show of weakness to the enemy some time ago gave the Konoha ninjas some breathing time.
I am afraid that the three hidden villages were really worried that this might really make Konoha take a breather, so they chose to launch a fierce attack at the same time.
At this time, in the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had a face as deep as water, looked at Koharu and Mito Kado who had gone to bed. On the table in front of him, there were three scrolls, each of which showed the situation on the battlefield.
Taking a deep breath, "The current situation is not optimistic. Is there anything you want to say?"
At such a critical moment, what kind of rainbow farts can be expected from Koharu and Mito Kaden?
Sarutobi Hiruzen could only continue: "It's okay to say that Sunagakure Village in the Land of Rain does not have many ninjas, and with the help of Rain Hidden Village, they should be able to hold on.
But they are Iwagakure Village in Takino Country and Kumogakure Village in Yuno Country.
No, it should be said that they are the Iwa Ninjas of Takino Country and Grass Country. Not long ago, the situation that Lu Xin had been most worried about happened. The number of ninjas in Iwagakure Village itself was the largest, so they stretched out again.
A battlefield, the land of grass!
And according to the intelligence, Onoki is likely to have sent hundreds or even thousands of ninjas to prepare for a raid from the Country of Grass to the interior of the Country of Fire, behind the Konoha ninja army in Takino. Although Shikashin sent Mei, who is best at setting up defense lines.
Murabajuan Jōnin, but this may not resolve the urgent need.
Moreover, on the front battlefield of Takino Country, Iwagakure Village has accumulated nearly 10,000 ninjas. With such a large-scale ninja army, Lu Xin really does not dare to act rashly. There are definitely not many people dispatched there, not necessarily
Can defend.
Once breached..."
At this time, the pressure in his heart and body was somewhat unbearable.
"Where is Caoyin Village?" Xiaochun asked when he went to bed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly shook his head. He didn't want to say more. In this case, Kusagakure Village was not Amegakure Village. There were ninja demigods like Sansho Hanzo.
It's weird if Caoyin Village dares to take action.
"What's the situation over there in Yuno Country?" Mito Monen asked.
"Although Cloud Hidden Village did not launch an attack from other places, the Third Raikage still deployed a thousand additional ninjas from Cloud Hidden Village. The already stretched situation became even more unsustainable."
Every time he said a word, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his heart sink a little.
After listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, the faces of Koharu and Mito Monobu who went to bed also looked very gloomy.
At this time, an idea came to both of their minds.
It would be nice if Danzo was here.
Among them, Danzo was the best at dealing with emergencies like this, and he came up with some insidious but very useful methods.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up suddenly, "It seems that I have to take action personally!"
In this case, if the Hokage personally goes into battle, it will not only relieve the tension in the Land of Grass, but also boost morale.
"no!"
"Absolutely not!"
Koharu and Mito Kazuo refused almost at the same time.
"As Hokage, you are Konoha's last guarantee. Once you take action, it really means that Konoha has no trump card, which will make them increase their offensive efforts.
And once Konoha loses your command, if other hidden village ninjas attack Konoha, it will be really over." Koharu said bluntly after sleeping.
Sarutobi Hiruzen just remained standing, quietly looking at the two so-called Hokage advisors.
Being stared at by him like this, the two of them really felt a little blushing.
But sometimes, there is such a thing as sudden wisdom.
"Isn't there the 'yellow flash' Minato Minato Namikaze who rose to prominence on the battlefield in Yuno Country some time ago? He is fast enough and can rush to Grass Country for support.
Moreover, his three subordinates have made many military exploits not long after they went to the battlefield some time ago. Hatake Sakumo's son Hatake Kakashi has also been promoted to Jonin, so having them go to support him should be of great help.
With his help, since he can compete with the Third Raikage, he must have Kage-level strength." After sleeping, Koharu's eyes lit up and he said.
Minato indeed already possesses Kage-level strength, and Sarutobi Hiruzen still knows this.
If it's Minato, maybe...
"Furthermore, since Kakashi Hatake is... Since he is the son of Sakumo Hatake, for such a genius to become a jounin, there must be something special about him!
Also, didn’t Danzo tell us very early on that he was laying out the Iwagakure Village? I think it’s time to return the command of the ninja army in Yu no Kuni to Jiraiya.
Opening up a new battlefield in Iwagakure Village is definitely the most urgent problem we need to solve.
Once other hidden villages follow suit, it will be a huge disaster for us." Mito Gate Yan also said.
The two people suddenly seemed to have their Tianling Cap opened, "We can continue to contact Kirigakure Village. If Kirigakure Village can be encouraged to sneak attack the rear of the Kingdom of Thunder, then the pressure on the front will definitely be relieved. As long as Iwagakure Village can be relieved
With the pressure put by Yunyin Village, there is no Kazekage in Sand Hidden Village, so it is not a concern at all."
Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi had an idea, "The Kingdom of Water is closed off, and Kirigakure Village is not that easy to approach. We sent so many ninjas, but either they were in vain or there was no news."
"You can let Sheren go!" Xiaochun suggested again after going to bed.
"Before the Kingdom of Water was truly closed, didn't Toneri enter the Kingdom of Water just because he was on a mission? Moreover, the battlefield of Yu Kingdom is the closest place to the Kingdom of Water so far, and his strength is strong enough. Even if he persuades Kiri
If Hidden Village fails, we will definitely be able to escape unscathed, and if we set out now, we might be able to return to the battlefield before Yunyin Village launches an attack."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. Judging from the previous words, he sounded like a consultant.
Sure enough, people just have to push hard, otherwise they don't even know how strong they are.
In this situation, there must be no hesitation. Now that he got what seemed like a good ideal idea, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately gave the order.
First, all members of the Namikaze Minato squad were dispatched to the Kannabi Bridge in the Land of Grass to support Misura Hamaki and other Konoha ninjas in resisting the sneak attack force of Iwagakure Village.
Second, order Shimura Danzo to return to Konoha immediately and return command to Jiraiya.
Third, Toneri rushed to the Kirigakure Village of the Water Kingdom as quickly as possible with the Hokage's letter, and delivered the letter to the Mizukage's desk, striving to establish a cooperative relationship between Konoha and the Kirigakure Village, and even
It is to become an ally. If it fails, it will return to the battlefield of Tang Country as soon as possible.
Fourth, all ninjas in Konoha will be relieved of all vacations and give up all B-level and below tasks. Except for necessary defense, the remaining ninjas will be sent to the front line.
Fifth, Konoha will reduce all financial expenditures and order the major ninja families to use part of their finances to purchase necessary supplies such as detonating charms and kunai, so that each supply team can escort the supplies to the front line as soon as possible.
Even though Toneri and other Kage-level warriors look like they are going to destroy the world when fighting, they are actually only a very small number of them. It is the Jinchūriki who can cause such destructive power. The rest of the ninjas
, more than 90% of ninjas only fight with detonating symbols and kunai.
Even some ninjutsu are rarely used because their chakra amount does not allow them to use so many ninjutsu.
Once the chakra is exhausted, it almost means death, so these supplies are very important.
Sixth, the Konoha Ninja School has started wartime mode. All students can apply for graduation as long as they can flexibly use the Three Body Technique. The Ninja School is open to enrollment around the clock, and the enrollment is no longer just for one age group, not even just for children.
Even if you are an adult and have a certain amount of chakra, you can still go to a ninja school to study. There will be specialized teachers to teach you. Once you master the Three Body Technique, you can become an official ninja.
seventh...
...
...
Konoha's wartime system has been fully activated.
The ninja school founded by the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama and imitated by all the hidden villages finally played its greatest role at this moment.
It is like an arsenal, cultivating ninjas for Konoha who can participate in battles as quickly as possible and with the highest efficiency.
This is the foundation of the knowledge accumulated by the Ninja School over the years, and it cannot be imitated by other hidden villages.
And all of this has nothing to do with Toneri, who is far away in Tang Country and has just received a mission.
Because he had already set foot on the road to the Kingdom of Water again according to Sarutobi Hiruzen's order.
At this point, on the entire battlefield of Yuno Country, Konoha's ninja army was once again left with only Jiraiya, the top powerhouse, and the strength of the Kumo ninja troops was not weakened, but was further strengthened.
Toneri knew the importance of his mission, and he also knew that Konoha was really on the edge of the knife at this time. This was from the fact that after Jiraiya and Danzo received the message from Sarutobi Hiruzen, the two of them
You can tell something from the expression that is almost dripping with water.
Unfortunately, he didn't know the situation.
His mission was to enter the Kingdom of Water, enter the Kirigakure Village, deliver the letter from Sarutobi Hiruzen to the Mizukage on behalf of the Konoha ninjas, and try his best to promote the alliance between Konoha and the Kirigakure Village.
If nothing can be done, it is better to rush back to the battlefield of Yuno Country as soon as possible to help Jiraiya defend against the enemy.
Toneri didn't know the specific situation in the ninja world at this time. After all, even his cat's eye liner would be difficult to work on the battlefield.
However, from the very beginning, when Sunagakure Village provoked the Third Ninja World War in order to alleviate the internal conflicts caused by the disappearance of the third Kazekage, nearly two years have passed.
In Toneri's memory, although the Third Ninja World War lasted not short, it was not long either, and the main battles also occurred some time ago.
At this point, it has almost reached its peak stage.
"Even Danzo has gone back, it seems that the roots are about to take action..." Toneri thought silently in his heart, and he crossed the vast sea between the Kingdom of Yu and the Kingdom of Water, and set foot on the water again.
country’s territory.
In order to rush for time, he didn't even take a boat. He just used chakra to run on the water and reach the Kingdom of Water as quickly as possible.
Although there are fragments of memories in his mind about some things, he only knows part of them, and the original anime did not explain the specific time.
Moreover, because of his intervention, many things had already changed, and he couldn't control it, so he didn't know that at the same time that he received the mission, Minato also received the mission and left Konoha.
Stepping onto the territory of the Kingdom of Water again, he felt even colder and denser with water vapor.
At this time, in the Kingdom of Water, the ninja defense force at the border was even stronger, and the rejection of outsiders was definitely the most severe in the entire ninja world.
However, this did not trouble a powerful ninja like Toneri. He quickly found the weakness of the surveillance force and successfully passed multiple sentries and entered the country of water.
Kirigakure Village's status in the Land of Water is almost identical to Konoha's status in the Land of Fire, so its location is not difficult to find.
However, before sneaking into Kirigakure Village, Toneri still needs to conduct some investigations to understand the situation in the Kingdom of Water and Kirigakure Village at this time before he can act.
Because in his impression, the Kirigakure Village at this time should still be under the rule of the Third Mizukage, and with his full support, the "Blood Mist Sato" was implemented, which later made all Kirigakure famous.
A cowardly policy.
It's just that when it was first implemented, it did play a great role. Kirigakure, who was cultivated in the "Blood Mist Residence", became even more powerful, both in terms of strength and potential.
So in the beginning, the Mist Ninjas all called themselves "Blood Mist Ninjas" and were even proud of it.
It was not until later that "Inside the Blood Mist" gradually changed...
Behind all this, if Toneri's guess is correct, Uchiha Madara should be operating behind the scenes.
According to the original normal process, it would take at least a few days to investigate outside Kirigakure Village to determine the situation before continuing the task. However, this time time does not wait for anyone.
So Shiren had to take risks.
Fortunately, Orochimaru's "Erasing Face Jutsu" is indeed an excellent infiltration ninjutsu. In addition, Toneri has been practicing in Anbu and Roots for so long, so his infiltration ability is still good, so he successfully entered Kirigakure Village.
If you really want to ask, in the entire ninja world, which one has the most endurance of blood successors, it is not Konoha, which has wealthy families such as Hinata and Uchiha, but Kirigakure Village.
When you enter Kirigakure Village for the first time, you can clearly feel the difference between it and Konoha.
Putting aside the common feeling of being shrouded in fog, the feeling given by ordinary residents on this street is very different.
There is no smile on the faces of the people living here, as if their survival is their limit.
Moreover, the hierarchy between ninjas and ordinary people is too obvious here. As long as a ninja wears a forehead protector, even a newly graduated genin, he has rights above all ordinary people.
This kind of scene is a true portrayal of the entire ninja world. There is a huge difference between the life and survival style of Konoha and the way ninjas get along with ordinary residents.
Kirigakure Village is where this class differentiation is most obvious.
Because there are countless families, large and small, in Kirigakure Village, such as the Kaguya clan, the Oniden clan, etc., and some relatively smaller families like the Gouju clan.
In short, almost all the ninjas in Kirigakure Village come from these large and small families. There are not many ninjas who come from ordinary people, and because they have no family support, their status in the ninja group is also quite low.
The greatest influence on Kirigakure Village was undoubtedly the second generation Mizukage Kito Gengetsu. He followed the example of the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama in establishing the ANBU of Kirigakure Village and building a ninja school. Coupled with his status as a member of the Kito clan, at that time
Almost everyone in the village supported him.
The third-generation Mizukage at this time was also a disciple of the second-generation Mizukage, Kiden Gengetsu.
However, the third generation Mizukage definitely did not want to become a puppet Mizukage and become the marionette of the Oniden clan to control Kirigakure Village, so he launched the "Blood Mist Lane" policy to cultivate his own cronies while weakening the power of the major families.
strength.
Thanks to his efforts, some capable young ninjas did appear in Kirigakure Village. They started out as civilians and even supported the Third Mizukage who promoted them.
So when the Toneri class entered Kirigakure Village, they did a brief investigation and found that the reason why Kirigakure Village did not participate in the Ninja World War, and even if they did participate, it was only on a small scale, it was not because they were unwilling to participate.
, but because there are irreconcilable contradictions within Kirigakure Village itself.
That is to say, they are a country on the vast sea, and it is difficult for other countries to invade. Otherwise, with their current complicated internal situation, it is probably a sneak attack and an accurate one.
Kirigakure Village is divided into four factions.
The strongest at present is undoubtedly the Third Mizukage who occupies the nominal commanding heights, and among his many supporters, the most important ones are some members of the current Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
Second only to the Mizukage, there are many families in the Kirigakure Village headed by the Oniden clan. Together they are a very powerful force and are the main force in the fight against the three generations of Mizukage.
The next level is a force composed of some small and medium-sized families and civilian ninjas who have been squeezed. They survive in the cracks of the two major factions, the Third Mizukage and the Oniden clan. They are also the "blood mist"
The main opponents are, but unfortunately their opinions are not taken seriously.
There is only one family in the last group, and that is the Kaguya family, who are said to be all lunatics.
They do not participate in any disputes or struggles for power. The purpose of their existence is very simple, which is their mission! Fight!
No matter which side they are on, as long as there is a mission and a battle involving strong men, they are willing to participate.
For this kind of person who risked his own life in a fight, the other three factions were unwilling to provoke him and had a resigned attitude.
This makes the people of the Kaguya clan even more arrogant and arrogant, often not taking anyone seriously.
But there is no way, this is a group of lunatics who can laugh in the face of death. If it is not necessary, others will turn a deaf ear to their words.
After receiving this information, Shiren was also a little stunned.
With the complicated situation in Kirigakure Village and the mission given by Hiruzen Sarutobi, sending the letter to the desk of the Third Mizukage seems to be of no use.
Even if the Third Mizukage is persuaded, it will be of no use if the Oniden clan doesn't nod.
