Hokage: Starting With Uzumaki Kushina

In the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru looked very solemn.

Because the current situation in Konoha is quite bad.

Once the war breaks out, it is very likely that the four major ninja villages will attack Konoha at the same time, and Konoha will be attacked from both sides.

Sarutobi Hiruzen began to discuss with Orochimaru how to solve the current situation.

Chiba didn't interrupt. He could stay here because he was Orochimaru's disciple. As a Genin, he didn't have the qualification to interrupt. It was good to be able to listen in.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said coldly: "According to intelligence, Kirigakure's Third Mizukage has launched a new policy called the Blood Mist, which allows bloody battles between ninjas. It seems to be training for the subsequent war.

No wonder we have been unwilling to establish contact with our Konoha before. It turns out that we have already been in cahoots with Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure.

Ninjas from enemy villages have already sneaked into Konoha, and there may be more ninjas still lurking in the darkness of Konoha. The war seems to be about to break out.

Orochimaru, given the current situation, do you think Konoha has the ability to fight? "

Orochimaru shook his head and said without mercy: "Once the war breaks out now, Konoha will definitely lose. If it is just Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure, Konoha can barely resist, but if Kirigakure also enters the field, we need to divide our forces. Resistance, not to mention Sunagakure who is eyeing him.

We only have so many troops in total, and the battlefield is spread out on multiple fronts. If we divide our troops too much, it will be difficult for us to launch an effective counterattack, and we will only be dragged to death. "

Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered.

Orochimaru said exactly what Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking.

No matter how strong Konoha is, it can't withstand four ninja villages attacking at the same time.

Now Sarutobi Hiruzen is thinking about how to find a way out of this seemingly dead end situation.

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked: "Orochimaru, how do you think Konoha can break the situation?"

Orochimaru was thinking just now.

Orochimaru replied: "The only way I can think of now is to postpone it. The later the war starts, the better it will be for Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said: "But now the initiative in the war is not with us at all. Now they can start a war at any time as long as they want."

Orochimaru took the pen and drew a circle in the Kingdom of Grass, the Kingdom of Yu, the Kingdom of River and the Kingdom of Waves.

Orochimaru put down his pen and began to narrate and analyze: "Now the four major ninja villages are still testing, the spies hidden in Konoha must be cleared immediately, so that those ninja villages can no longer know the situation inside our Konoha.

At the same time, Konoha now begins to divide its forces, sending ninjas to be stationed in the four countries I circled to fight against the ninjas of the four major ninja villages, and try their best to maintain the battle in these four countries.

Although the four major ninja villages have cooperated, they are not monolithic. As long as Konoha does not show timidity and looks like it will fight them to the end, they will not dare to act rashly.

Because they all understand that if Konoha chooses to make a desperate move, it is fully capable of breaking into any of the opponent's countries and villages, and they cannot afford the consequences.

If Konoha loses, then the targets of other ninja villages will be aimed at the ninja village that we defeated with all our might.

As long as it is not a full-scale war or a local war, Konoha, with its rich resources, can completely afford it.

As time goes by, if the war does not progress for a long time, they will probably fall apart internally.

I once asked Chiba about how he thought the four major ninja villages would attack Konoha at the same time. Chiba said that he would use the benefits to turn the two villages against each other.

This method is very applicable now. As long as we delay the start of a full-scale war and cause problems within them, then we can use our interests to instigate rebellion among the Ninja Villages. Maybe we can also achieve a counterattack and make up for all the previous losses. . "

Sarutobi Hiruzen tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, thinking about the feasibility of the method Orochimaru said.

Chiba glanced at Orochimaru in surprise, not expecting Orochimaru to mention him.

But from Chiba's point of view, Orochimaru's method does seem feasible.

The four major ninja villages have united to launch a war against Konoha because of their interests. However, if there is no gain for all the effort, they will definitely weigh the pros and cons and rethink whether launching a war against Konoha is really profitable.

And when Konoha promises clear benefits, it is really possible that it will incite rebellion among the ninja villages.

At the same time, Qianyu also knew very well.

If Orochimaru's plan goes according to plan, he will most likely be on the battlefield.

Because Orochimaru's plan is to fight the four great ninja villages of Iwa, Cloud, Sand, and Mist in the Land of Grass, Water, River, and Wave, and prevent the four great ninja villages from entering the Land of Fire, so the division of troops is certain. .

There are only so many ninjas in Konoha who can fight, so almost all of them must be sent out.

After thinking about it for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen also felt that Orochimaru's plan was feasible.

After all, Konoha, which was trapped in a passive situation, did not have much choice.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly: "Then follow your plan Orochimaru. Tomorrow I will send Anbu to join forces with Danzo's roots to clear out the enemy village ninjas hiding in Konoha.

At the same time, Orochimaru, you are about to go to the battlefield. Sunagakure is not afraid now, and the ninja troops currently stationed are enough to stop them in the River Country.

As for Kirigakure, I plan to temporarily send a small team of ninjas to the Land of Waves to see how many ninjas Kirigakure has stationed there, and then decide to allocate ninja troops there. After all, every combat power in Konoha is precious now.

As for Iwagakure, that guy Onoki is very smart. Before the official war begins, he will not choose to have too many head-on confrontations with our Konoha Shinobi. It is enough to have Sakumo leading the battle there.

The greatest threat is Cloud Shinobi Village. In the Country of Yu, Jiraiya and his ninja troops have fought against Cloud Shinobi Village ninjas countless times. The battle there is the most intense, and Cloud Shinobi Village ninjas are still continuously supporting He. The battle of the country.

Since Orochimaru, your plan is not to show weakness in front of these ninja villages, then you must resist the Cloud Shinobi of Yuno Country, so I send you to Yuno Country, what do you think? "

Orochimaru nodded and agreed: "I understand. Tomorrow I will leave for Yunokuni to meet Jiraiya. At the same time, I also want to take Qianyu with me. Please allow the teacher to agree."

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a smile with a straight face: "Okay, even if you don't tell me, that's what I plan to do. I heard that Jiraiya's disciple Minato shined on the battlefield of Yuno Country. If Qianyu also trained on the battlefield, , I think I will be able to shine and become a unique ninja soon.”

After hearing this, Qianyu felt a sense of excitement and murderous intent in his heart. He never expected that he would be able to confront the ninjas of Cloud Shinobi Village so quickly. He had planned to use Cloud Shinobi's life to calculate the debt for abducting Uzumaki Kushina!
