Konoha: Namikaze Minato, Saved Kushina

Who is messing with him behind the scenes, Sarutobi Hiruzen is still investigating.

But the most important thing right now is to send ninjas to support Orochimaru and Jiraiya.

In case Third Kazekage is really waiting for reinforcements, I'm afraid Orochimaru and Jiraiya are no match.

Although the two of them are not weak, they are both Kage-level strength, but if the two of them lead a thousand Konoha Shinobi and want to deal with Sunagakure, it would be too much to look down on Sunagakure.

"Who should be sent?"

Sending his henchmen to support Orochimaru on the battlefield, Sarutobi Hiruzen worried that after the ninjas in Konoha Village left too many, the Uchiha clan would have the idea of ​​rebellion.

In the eyes of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Uchiha Lingye, the current Uchiha patriarch, is a daring guy who can do anything.

In case the interior of Konoha Village is empty, the Uchiha clan will take action, so we have to guard against it.

"It's best for the Uchiha clan to support Orochimaru.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of the original Senju clan.

The reason why the Senju family was destroyed was not only that he and Danzo worked behind the scenes, but also because there were too many casualties in the Second Ninja World War.

It can be said that in the Second Ninja World War, the main force of the Senju clan basically died on the battlefield.

If the Uchiha family can suffer heavy losses in the war with Sand Shinobi, the threat of the Uchiha family will be eliminated directly.

But the most important thing is whether Uchiha can be persuaded to let the Uchiha clan go to support Orochimaru.

"Try it, you have nothing to lose."

Sarutobi Hiruzen leaves Hokage's office, ready to go to Uchiha Lingye in person.

When you come to the Uchiha clan, even if you are a Hokage, you have to wait for the notification and wait for Uchiha Lingye's permission before you can enter the Uchiha clan land.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was extremely angry in his heart.

As the most powerful person in Konoha Village, it is simply a humiliation to be blocked by the Uchiha clan.

"Our patriarch allowed you to go in, "Five Two Three" come with me."

After the report, the Uchiha people said to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Facing the Third Hokage, he is not afraid at all, the pride of their Uchiha clan, how could they be afraid of a Hokage.

After the Third Hokage abdicates, maybe the next Hokage will be their patriarch.

People from the Uchiha clan especially hope that Lingye can become the fourth Hokage.

Come to the living room of the Uchiha clan, where Mark Ye is waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"If Third Hokage is okay, he probably wouldn't come to my Uchiha clan. If you have something to say, just say it. I don't like to go round and round."

Of course Lingye will not be polite when facing Sarutobi Hiruzen.

There is no need for hypocrisy and obedience.

"Although Orochimaru and Jiraiya repelled Sunagakure, but Sunagakure may counterattack at any time, I hope that the Konchipo clan can go to support Orochimaru.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also doesn't like to flirt with Uchiha Lingye, there is a deep hatred between the two of them.

"Konoha Village can provide all supplies to the Uchiha clan."

Knowing that Uchiha Lingye may not agree easily, Sarutobi Hiruzen is also ready to lure.

"No problem, the Uchiha clan is a member of Konoha Village, so it is naturally obligated to contribute to Konoha Village, and I agree to send ninjas to support Orochimaru.

Lingye agreed very happily, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen a little surprised.

Just when Sarutobi Hiruzen was surprised, Lingye spoke again.

"However, the number of our Uchiha clan is too small, and Hokage needs to dispatch two thousand Konoha Shinobi to follow my command."

When hearing Lingye say that two thousand ninjas need to be dispatched to follow his command, Sarutobi Hiruzen's vigilance immediately rose to the highest level.

There are two thousand Konoha Shinobi, and all the ninjas in the entire Konoha Village add up to more than ten thousand people.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who doesn't trust Uchiha Lingye, is of course unwilling to hand over two thousand ninjas to Uchiha Lingye's command.

"No." Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously objected.

"The power of the Uchiha clan is enough, I believe in Uchiha."

"hehe."

Lingye smiled coldly.

"You don't believe in Uchiha, you want to make Uchiha's people die on the battlefield?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was very stiff when Lingye bluntly stated his plan.

"If you want Uchiha to go to the battlefield, you must transfer someone to me, otherwise, the Uchiha clan is powerless."

"After all, the Uchiha family is also responsible for the security of Konoha Village, and there is really no manpower."

Lingye's words directly blocked Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth.

Even if the Uchiha clan does not go to the battlefield, no one can say anything. The Konoha Guard is in charge of the Uchiha clan, and they must also protect the safety and security of Konoha Village.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had an uncertain face.

"Actually, I have a suggestion. As the patriarch of the Sarutobi clan, Third Hokage, I suggest that you arrange people from the Sarutobi clan to support Orochimaru. I think they should have no objections."

Lingye looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a half-smile.

The battlefield is a very dangerous place, and even Kage-level experts cannot guarantee that they will never die on the battlefield.

Although the Sarutobi clan is not weak, if they go to the battlefield, at least they have to peel off their skins.

"What, isn't Third Hokage unwilling to send his people to the battlefield? Then I wonder if you really love Konoha Village."

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent, Lingye said disdainfully.

Ge Xuxin really loves the village, and Konoha Village holds a lot of weight in his heart, but Sarutobi Hiruzen absolutely does not want the Sarutobi clan to perish.

"I can dispatch a thousand ninjas to you."

In the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to take a step back, and if he handed over two thousand ninjas to Uchiha Lingye, he would not be able to agree, but one thousand ninjas would still be acceptable.

"Yes, but if Third Hokage wants to send me the ninjas of the Konoha clan, please bring the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan along the way."

Lingye said to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen clenched his fist. Originally, he planned to find other big families of Konoha and ask them to send ninjas to Uchiha Lingye to gather a thousand ninja troops, but Uchiha Lingye predicted it.

This also made Sarutobi Hiruzen sure that Uchiha Lingye had ulterior motives in asking him to dispatch ninjas.

"I don't believe that you can subdue the ninja I dispatched to you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said secretly in his heart.

"I'm going to help you mobilize ninjas now, and I hope that the Uchiha patriarch can go to support them as soon as possible.

He will place his cronies among the ninjas dispatched to Uchiha Lingye to see what tricks Uchiha Lingye wants to do.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen left, Lingye informed Uchiha Iron Tree to come over.

"Master Patriarch, do you have something to order?"

"Next, I will go to the border of the Land of Fire to support Orochimaru, the affairs of the Konoha Guard, it is up to you to make the decision for the time being.

Lingye instructed Uchiha Iron Tree.

"Master Patriarch, why don't you let me go to the border of the Land of Fire, you should stay in Konoha Village."

Within the Uchiha clan, Lingye's safety is the most important thing.

"Do as I tell you."

Lingye said in an undeniable tone.

"Yes, Lord Patriarch."

Afterwards, Lingye began to dispatch the Uchiha tribe, dispatching a total of two hundred ninjas.

Today, the Uchiha family has more than a thousand people, and it is definitely a big family in Konoha Village. Among all the families in Konoha, the number of people is definitely the largest.

More than 800 of them are ninjas, but of course it is impossible for Lingye to dispatch all the ninjas of the Uchiha clan, he is not that loyal to Konoha Village.

The reason why I agreed to support Orochimaru was mainly to train the Uchiha people.

"Are you going to follow me to the border?" Lingye asked, looking at Mikoto.

Originally Lingye wanted Mikoto to stay in the clan, but Mikoto wanted to follow Lingye to the border of the Land of Fire.

"Well, there is Uchiha Yue in the clan to handle the affairs of the clan, and I don't have to stay in the clan."

Mikoto nodded, she still wanted to follow Lingye.

But if Lingye insisted on letting her stay in the clan, she would obey Lingye.

"Then you come with me."

Seeing Lingye agree, Mikoto showed a smile on his face.

"Let me tell you first, I'm also going to the border of the Land of Fire." Kushina said from the side.

"If you don't tell me, I will take you there."

As for Sara, Lingye certainly couldn't take her with her, and temporarily handed her over to Uchiha Yue.

Two days later, Lingye led the Konoha reinforcements to the border of the Land of Fire.

Kushina couldn't hold back a smile on her face.

She couldn't help laughing when she thought of Sarutobi Hiruzen's ugly expression as if he had eaten shit when he left Konoha Village.

In terms of asking for supplies, Lingye slapped Sarutobi Hiruzen severely, and Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was of course very ugly.

Senior Orochimaru, long time no see. "

Lingye greeted Orochimaru.

"I didn't expect you to come to support me." Orochimaru gave a stiff smile.

Orochimaru has not met Uchiha Lingye since he was threatened by Uchiha Lingye last time and handed over First Hokage's cell.

"It seems that Senior Orochimaru doesn't welcome me very much."

Lingye looked at Orochimaru's expression with a smile on his face, and his smile looked more sunny than Orochimaru's.

"In front of you, I can't bear the title of senior."

Orochimaru spoke.

Aside, Jiraiya looked suspiciously at Uchiha Lingye and Orochimaru, are they familiar?

"Are you familiar with Uchiha Lingye?"

When Lingye went to arrange for the ninjas to lead over to support, Jiraiya asked the big snake.

Orochimaru said indifferently, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Orochimaru even wanted to kill Uchiha Lingye in his heart if he could, Uchiha Lingye knew his secret, which was always a hidden danger.

"Unfamiliarity is best."

Jiraiya has a lot of dissatisfaction with the Uchiha clan, especially Uchiha Lingye.

Because of Uchiha Lingye, his teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen, has not always trusted his disciple Namikaze Minato.

Namikaze Minato's goal is to become Hokage. If Sarutobi Hiruzen is not trusted, even with his support, it may be difficult to become Hokage.

"Oh, you have a problem with Uchiha?"

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya with twinkling eyes.

He was thinking in his heart, should he find a chance to join forces with Jiraiya to get rid of Uchiha Lingye......

Uchiha Lingye died, and the secret about his human experimentation and research on First Hokage cells was kept.

"Whoever said that, I have no problem with the Uchiha clan.

Even if Jiraiya is really dissatisfied with the Uchiha clan, he will not offend the Uchiha clan and cause trouble for himself.

The previous Uchiha family is okay, but the current Uchiha family is not weak, especially Uchiha Lingye.

He has seen Uchiha Lingye force the old man to admit defeat with his own eyes. Uchiha Lingye's strength is above Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he is stronger than himself.

"Master Orochimaru, Mr. Jiraiya, I'm back."

Namikaze Minato had a serious expression on his face.

Before, Namikaze Minato took the initiative to take over the task of detecting Sand Shinobi's movements. Considering the Flying Thunder God Technique, this task is still

It suits him quite well.

Even if found, Namikaze Minato can retreat easily.

"How about it?"

Seeing Namikaze Minato coming back, Jiraiya immediately asked.

In fact, seeing the seriousness on Namikaze Minato's face, Jiraiya knew that it was definitely not good news.

"Sand Shinobi's reinforcements are coming, and the number is definitely more than three thousand."

After hearing the report, Jiraiya's heart sank.

Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya, although he didn't speak, but Jiraiya understood what Orochimaru meant.

Before, he really believed the fake news from Third Kazekage, and believed that he would consider peace talks.

This is a direct slap in the face.

Fortunately, Orochimaru let Konoha Village reinforce them, otherwise, facing more than 3,000 Sand Shinobi, they would have to retreat.

At that time, I'm afraid Sand Shinobi will attack the Land of Fire again.

It was the first time that Sand Shinobi attacked the Nation of Fire without knowing it, so it is understandable that if Sand Shinobi breaks through the defense of the Nation of Fire again, it would be a real embarrassment.

Go and invite Uchiha Lingye over to discuss how to deal with Sand Shinobi. "

Orochimaru gave instructions to Namikaze Minato.

Hearing Orochimaru said that Uchiha Lingye was invited, Namikaze Minato froze for a moment, is the reinforcement Uchiha Lingye?

Thinking of Uzumaki Kushina, Namikaze Minato, who joined the Konoha Guard, has mixed feelings.

He hadn't seen Uzumaki Kushina for a long time, and wondered if Uzumaki Kushina followed Uchiha Lingye to the border of the Land of Fire.

"No need to invite, I'm already here."

Lingye came over, followed by Mikoto and Kushina.

When seeing Uzumaki Kushina, Namikaze Minato was excited for a moment, and then a little dim, Kushina didn't seem to like him.

"Sand Shinobi's support has arrived, I wonder if Patriarch Lingye has a way to deal with it?"

Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Lingye.

"The way to deal with it? Of course it is to call back. Is there any other way?"

Lingye asked Orochimaru back.

Here they are on the border of the Land of Fire, if they retreat, Sand Shinobi will directly attack the Land of Fire.

So you can't retreat, you can only fight Sand Shinobi back.

"You're right, the only way to beat Sand Shinobi is now."

Jiraiya said in a low voice.

Sand Shinobi's support has arrived. This battle may be a tough one. Although they also have support here, the 1.5 support is not as much as that of Sand Shinobi.

"What we need to do now is to stare at Sand Shinobi to prevent Sand Shinobi from entering the Land of Fire from other directions and causing damage to the rear."

Lingye said something.

Sand Shinobi may not fight them head-on, the Nation of Fire is so big and the border is so long, what if they sneak into the Nation of Fire territory from other places, and then attack from behind?

"How about leaving this task to the Uchiha clan?" Orochimaru asked.

Marking Sand Shinobi, this task is not easy, if you want to sneak in the rear, you will definitely send an elite team.

However, the strength of the Uchiha family is very strong, and they are very suitable for this task.

Even in the face of the enemy's elite squad, the ninjas of the Uchiha clan will not suffer.

"Okay, I will arrange it."

Seeing that Lingye had no opinion, Orochimaru was relieved.

Although he is the commander-in-chief, Uchiha Lingye may not be able to command the actions that others can command.

"Namikaze Minato, sneak into the Sand Shinobi camp and continue to investigate the number of Sand Shinobi. I will arrange a team for you to destroy Sand Shinobi's supplies."

Orochimaru turned to Namikaze Minato and ordered.

Jiraiya frowned when she heard Orochimaru ordered Namikaze Minato's mission.

Going to the rear to destroy the opponent's supplies is a very dangerous task.

In times of war, supplies are of course very important. The team delivering supplies at Sand Shinobi must be elite ninjas. This task is very dangerous.

"Yes, Master Orochimaru."

Namikaze Minato didn't consider whether it was dangerous or not, and entrusting him with this important task, Namikaze Minato felt that he valued him.

"Be careful, your own safety is the most important thing."

Jiraiya didn't stop Orochimaru, his disciple was indeed the best person for this task, Jiraiya just told Namikaze Minato to be careful.

Regardless of whether the task can be completed or not, life-saving is the most important thing. .
