Conquering the ninja world from capturing the white eyes

At the same time, Konoha Hokage Building.

After listening to the report from his ANBU ninja, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded slightly: "I understand, please step back first."

"yes."

Then the ANBU ninja disappeared from the office with a "whoosh" sound.

"well."

Looking at the casualty statistics on the table, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but frown and sighed slightly.

After a while, he lit his pipe, stood up and came to the window. He looked at the prosperous Konoha Village outside the window and took a deep puff of the pipe, and his frown relaxed a little.

At this moment, the door to the Hokage's office was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man in black clothes with a bandage on his right eye walked in.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took off his pipe and turned around.

"Danzo, didn't I tell you that you need to knock on the door before coming in?"

However, Danzo Shimura ignored these words and said solemnly:

"Hiruzen, you have also seen the frontline battle report. Kirigakure Village is more difficult to deal with than expected before the war. Aren't you going to change your combat strategy?"

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened, he looked directly into Danzo's eyes and said:

"Danzo, your subordinates have always been responsible for gathering intelligence. Now the actual battle situation is completely inconsistent with the previous expectations. It seems that you have not done your job well."

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen not only failed to respond to his question, but also blamed himself, Danzo couldn't help but darken his face.

After a moment of silence, he spoke again.

"Yes, I did underestimate Kirigakure Village before. I didn't expect that boy from the Kaguya clan to be so strong. During this time, I have collected information about Kirigakure Village again. You will not go wrong if you do as I said!

"

At this moment, Danzo felt extremely confident.

In fact, as early as five years ago, his subordinate Ninja reported information about Kaguya Ayaten to him.

When he first learned that Kaguya Ayaten, who was only 7 years old, had the ability to kill many members of the Kaguya tribe, he was very shocked and immediately arranged for his subordinates to focus on him.

When I saw Kaguya Ayaten's wonderful speech, she instantly changed the views of the residents of Kirigakure Village.

Not only did he not receive any punishment, but he also received strong support from many villagers. Danzo even regarded him as a major enemy that might threaten Konoha in the future.

But Kaguya Ayaten was only 7 years old at that time.

Danzo had so many enemies to pay attention to, how could he have the time to focus on a 7-year-old boy.

In addition, since then, Kaguya Ayaten has not made any big news. She just went to school, graduated, and was promoted to chuunin and jounin normally.

Although it is indeed an exaggeration to become a Jonin at the age of 12, in Danzo's view it is not enough to pose a big threat.

After all, it's not like he's never seen a 12-year-old Jonin before, and it just so happened that one appeared in Konoha recently.

In Danzo's opinion, Kaguya Ayaten may be stronger than Kakashi, but it's not much stronger.

He judged that Kaguya Ayaten could play a key role on the battlefield, but it was still far from changing the overall situation of the war.

So when he was providing intelligence reference for strategy formulation, he didn't pay much attention to Kaguya Ayaten and just mentioned it casually.

However, reality slapped Danzo hard in the face.

Kaguya Ayaten not only has a strength close to the shadow level, but she is also a liver emperor.

In the battles with Kirigakure in the past few months, he could see his opponent in 70% of the battles.

Due to the presence of Kaguya Ayaten, Konoha was retreating steadily in the direction of Kirigakure Village, resulting in heavy casualties.

Danzo came to Hiruzen Sarutobi this time because he wanted to propose his own combat strategy to reverse the situation of the war.

For his own plan, he took the blame without hesitation.

Seeing Danzo taking the initiative, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyebrows relaxed:

"Tell me what you think first."

Danzo's expression softened slightly and he walked towards Hiruzen and said:

"The method is very simple. Enable Orochimaru and let him lead the battle against Kirigakure. With Orochimaru on the front line and some additional reinforcements sent to the village, Kirigakure will not be able to cause trouble."

After listening to Danzo's proposal, Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment, and then said in a calm voice:

"The current Orochimaru is not suitable to be the commander-in-chief. He should continue to be in charge of Konoha."

Danzo was slightly startled when he heard this. He originally thought he could pull it, but he didn't expect Hiruzen to refuse so decisively.

He recommended Orochimaru to the top not only for Konoha, but also for himself.

Danzo knew that it was very difficult for him to become Hokage, but if he could push Orochimaru to the position of Hokage, it would be no different from becoming Hokage himself.

After all, Orochimaru is now obsessed with scientific research.

At that time, he only needs to satisfy Orochimaru's needs for scientific research, and the power to manage Konoha will fall into his own hands.

The biggest obstacle to achieving this goal now is that Orochimaru is restricted to Konoha by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

At the same time, the newly emerged civilian ninja Minato Namikaze is killing people on the battlefield, and his reputation is rising rapidly.

If this continues, there will be no suspense about Namikaze Minato's succession as Hokage.

By then, his dream of being the Hokage for many years will probably be shattered.

Only by letting Orochimaru go on the battlefield and achieve military success can everything be hopeful.

Danzo didn't want to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he continued to speak:

"Hiruzhan, are you going to disregard the lives of the frontline ninjas? Orochimaru is your disciple, so you don't trust him so much?"

Facing Danzo's question, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but smile lightly.

He was very clear about Danzo's little thoughts.

Isn't it just that he wants to help Orochimaru become Hokage first, and then Danzo will return to the stage as the Hokage's assistant for a few years, and when he has accumulated enough fame, he will replace Orochimaru and become Hokage himself.

As an old partner and rival for many years, Hiruzen Sarutobi will certainly not let Danzo succeed.

Although this is a bit sorry for his disciple Orochimaru.

But Orochimaru hasn't been very obedient recently. He almost wears the same pants as Danzo.

In addition, the Hokage Avenue he laid for Minato is almost completed, and of course he will not let Danzo come in to disrupt the situation.

Let Minato, a civilian ninja, succeed as Hokage so that he can be comfortable as the "Great Emperor".

After all, it's not enough to rely on strength to make a fool of yourself. It also depends on the power and background. It's not him who has the final say on how Konoha will turn.

As for how to deal with Kirigakure Village, Minato has to suffer.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep sip from his pipe and said with a hint of ridicule:

"This is not something you, a leader at the root, can say. You don't have to worry about things on the front line. I have my own way."

"What can we do?" Danzo said with a dark face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly:

"A few days ago, I went to Hinata's house to find out some secrets about the 'Corpse Bone Pulse'. According to Hinata and Hinata, Kaguya Ayaten probably didn't have long to live, so that's why she was so desperate.

"When Kaguya Ayaten's body completely collapses, all problems will be solved.

"Besides, the battle over the Kannabi Bridge should be over soon. When the time comes, I will send Minato to the Kirigakure battlefield as soon as possible. With Minato in charge, the battle line will be pushed back soon."

Seeing that Hiruzen Sarutobi was planning to give the opportunity to Minato again, Danzo's face became more and more serious: "Hiruzen, you actually put your hope in the enemy to die sooner? How naive!"

However, these words only received an angry look from Sarutobi Hiruzen:

"That's enough Danzo, I am the Hokage."

Danzo, who was speechless, could only say angrily: "Hiruzhan, you will regret it!"

After saying this, Danzo walked out of the Hokage's office without looking back.

The left Sarutobi Hiruzen could only shake his head helplessly.

...

Half a month later, in Kirigakure Village, Kaguya clan land.

Ayaten was in her yard, listening to Qiu Ju's report on the war situation in various parts of the ninja world.

"Lord Clan Leader, three days ago Konoha successfully destroyed an important node on Iwagakure's supply line, the Kannabi Bridge. After that, Iwagakure's supply should be seriously affected."

"Okay, I understand." Ayantian nodded lightly.

Naturally, Ayatian is very familiar with this place, Kannabi Bridge.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was the starting point of all the tragedies of Hokage.

Ayatian originally thought about having the opportunity to "visit the Holy Land", but now it seems that she has no chance.

'I don't know if Obito 'died' on Kannabi Bridge like in the original work.'

Ayatian is still unclear about how much impact her arrival will have on the direction of the plot.

But to be honest, he didn't particularly care about this.

Mainly because he is strong enough at the moment. Even if the direction of the ninja world deviates from the original work, he is sure to gain a foothold in this troubled world.

Simply establishing a foothold is not enough, he even wants to lead the development process of the ninja world.

But the most important thing at the moment is the "Third Ninja War". We must first win this war.

Combined with the information that Iwakakure's supply line had been cut off just now, Ayaten quickly anticipated the trend of the subsequent war.

Iwagakure, which loses supplies first, will surely gradually collapse.

After Iwagakure is completely defeated, Konoha, with its hands free, will definitely increase its troops to the battlefield in the direction of Kirigakure.

Although Konoha's strength had already been greatly reduced at this time, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, so Kirigakure would definitely not be able to compete with him in terms of physical strength.

When the time comes, as the battle line continues to be pushed back, he may have to go to the battlefield again.

'According to the original work, Minato and Kakashi should come to the Kirigakure battlefield in the future, and I don't know if there will be a chance to face them.'

In fact, Ayaten quite wanted to fight Minato.

As the quasi-Fourth Hokage, Minato is the best target for Ayaten to test his own strength.

If he could defeat Minato, or even have a 50-50 draw with Minato, he would be more confident in his future plans.

Just when Ayatian was imagining the scene of her fighting with Minato, Qiu Ju spoke again.

"Master Patriarch, there is one more thing."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Ayantian asked.

"I met ANBU members on my way back just now. They said that Master Mizukage is looking for you and asked you to visit the Mizukage Building when you have time." Qiu Ju said respectfully.

"Oh? Mizukage came to me so soon?" Ayantian was slightly surprised.

It has been less than a month since he returned to the village. Logically speaking, there should not be much pressure on the front line at this time.

He originally wanted to practice his Byakugan at home, but now it seems he has to return to the battlefield early.

"Okay, then I'll go to the Mizukage Building, and I'll ask you to take care of Ayano-san."

"Yes, sir."
