Konoha's traitor master

Chapter 229

On the border of Tian Country, in the command camp of Konoha

Aoba, who officially accepted the command of Tianzhi's defense line, made himself a cup of tea. The dog food he just drank was a bit greasy.

Itachi, who was dressed in a low-cut outfit, was sorting the documents on the table.

Aoba actually strongly disagreed with Itachi coming to the battlefield.

But Fugaku...

Although he is relatively sober among Uchiha.

It's just that feeling of being awake but not completely awake, that's what it feels like.

I can see the issue with the village more clearly, but as a father, there is really something wrong with my brain circuit.

When Aoba asked Fugaku for help that day, Fugaku proposed to let Aoba take Itachi to the battlefield. This was something Fugaku had done during the Third Ninja War.

When I talk about it, I actually feel quite proud, thinking that my education method is very correct, and Itachi has achieved greater growth on the battlefield.

Although Aoba forcibly rejected Fugaku on the spot, Itachi himself had the same idea as his father and secretly approached Aoba's team.

Aoba has never avoided Itachi, so Itachi easily grasped the information about the gathering location.

Shaking his head, he decided in his heart that he needed to pay more attention to Itachi's ideological education in the future.

However, Itachi would actually break the rules and do such a 'willful' behavior, and Aoba felt that the transformation of Itachi was still effective.

At least Itachi believed from the bottom of his heart that Aoba, the master, would definitely indulge him, so he made such a decision.

"Hey, Aoba-senpai, one against seven, you are so diligent~" Obito took off his mask as soon as he entered the camp.

Aoba shook his head, this is the most unruly Uchiha in all of Konoha.

Establishing a relationship with Lin did not change Obito's character. After placing Lin in Konoha, Aoba had basically given up on the possibility of Obito opening his eyes.

It feels like even if Kakashi was killed, Obito would probably be lying in Lin's arms with a pair of three magatama heads for comfort.

Kakashi, who entered the door at the same time as Obito, said nothing and nodded towards Aoba as a greeting.

Aoba continued to shake his head. This person is also without any rules. He has moved closer to his own nature from sticking to the rules. That is, Jiraiya's little emperor uncle has not yet written...

"I have met Aoba-sama." Hizashi, who was last, bowed to Aoba very respectfully.

"Thank you for your hard work, Hizashi." Aoba returned with a friendly tone.

In fact, Hizashi's formal attitude made Aoba feel even more uncomfortable. After all, after accepting Neji, the relationship between the two should be considered relatively close.

But Hizashi has been bound by the rules of the Hyuga clan for too long, and his career as a Hokage guard has not allowed him to completely let go.

"Sorry for being late!" At this time, Minato, who had sent Kushina back to Konoha, appeared in the camp with three people from the Fire Country border defense line, Ino Shikacho.

"Minato, I suggest you change your mantra. Don't you think this sentence is unlucky?" Aoba complained mercilessly.

In fact, Minato was not late, but he had very high demands on himself and always wanted to be faster, so he took this sentence as a mantra.

"Haha, that's right." Minato touched his chin and thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and put it on Shikaku's body. The two of them disappeared into the tent and immediately appeared again: "Then let's start over again, here I come!"

"Minato, listen to my advice. Being funny also requires talent." Aoba looked at Minato with a very regretful look.

"At this time, should I smile?" Nara Shikaku slapped Minato's hand away angrily.

"Okay, let's talk about old times later. Aoba, what is your plan?" Lukaku's expression did not relax because of the deliberate joke just now, but his mental state was indeed not that tense.

As the general staff officer of this war, Minato gave Shikaku considerable trust, so the pressure on him was actually very high.

Aoba and Minato looked at each other. What they just did was actually prepared for Shikaku. Minato knew Aoye's plan and knew that Shikaku was very important to this plan.

Moreover, the two of them also have a very good personal relationship with Shikaku.

Aoba shrugged his shoulders and switched to a serious expression: "The first thing that needs to be made clear is the purpose of the plan. Our goal in this war is not to cause a large number of casualties to the Kumogakure troops, or to defeat the main camp of Kumogakure.

."

"Our ultimate goal is to prompt Cloud Hidden Village to apply for a ceasefire and compromise with Konoha."

"In order to achieve this goal, we need to accomplish two things. One is to incite enough anti-war public opinion within the Kingdom of Thunder."

"The other is to capture the two jinchūriki of Kumogakure alive." Aoba took out a stack of photos of the two Yukitos.

Shikaku couldn't hold his expression at all: "It's true that public opinion matters are your specialty. I can trust you for the time being, but in any case, it is too difficult to capture a Jinchuriki alive. This is on the battlefield."

"That's why I need your help as a strategist." Qingye said with a smile.

"You..." Shikaku was at a loss for words. He didn't know he had such great abilities, but out of trust he still started to think about Aoba's thoughts.

At this time, everyone present also focused their attention on Shikaku. Now the people in the camp are all the core team of the younger generation under Tsunade, and the level of mutual trust is very high.

Of course, in Aoba's mind, he prefers to think of this team as the team prepared for Minato.

"Public opinion?" Shikaku touched his chin, slowly understanding Aoba's thoughts.

"This battle is not going to be easy." Shikaku narrowed his eyes and said to Aoye.

"So I leave the frontal battlefield matters to you, the public opinion matters to me, and the rest of the time, I leave all the manpower to you to dispatch." Aoba passed the blame to Shikaku without hesitation.

Just like when he recommended Shikaku to help Tsunade handle government affairs.

...

Late at night, near the coastline of Tano Kuni

Yeyue Lake, to be precise, it should be called Moonlight Lake, with a calm face waiting for the arrival of its contact person.

Contrary to the calm expression is the complicated heart of Moonlight Lake.

Mixed with a large number of responsible emotions such as anxiety, restlessness, tension, and guilt, he could only vent his anger by constantly clenching the handle of the knife.

Moonlight Lake is a long-term spy of the Roots, one of the group of ninjas sent out by Aoba to maintain internal stability after seizing the Roots.

In other words, this is a die-hard loyalist of Danzo.

He was anxious because the appointed time was coming soon.

Nervous and uneasy are the worries that his teammates may discover him at any time. Although the medicine he prepared has never failed, and the two very nervous teenagers from Yunyin Village have never doubted him, but what if he failed this time?

What about that time?

The emotion of guilt is very complicated. Ye Yuehu of Yunyin Village has received the care of his superiors and the trust of his teammates, which makes him almost unable to recognize who he is.

More importantly, he actually had such emotions, which made Moonlight Lake feel even more deeply guilty. He felt that this was a betrayal of Danzo and Konoha.

"Long time no see, Lake." In front of Moonlight Lake, a figure wearing a root mask slowly crawled out of the shadows.

"See Lord Koala!"
