Lurking in Konoha, part-time Hokage

Hanekawa sat next to Tsunade and looked around.

As a place for meetings, the conference room reflects the power structure of Konoha Village.

Sitting at the top was Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, facing a group of special jounin and jounin.

On either side of him were Hokage advisors Mito Monen and Koharu Koharu, as well as Hokage assistant Shimura Danzo.

Tsunade sat in the front row, closest to the Hokage.

In the same row as her are Orochimaru, Hinata Hizashi, Uchiha Fugaku, Yamanaka Kaiichi, Akimichi Choza and Nara Shikaku.

There were a few empty seats in the first row, and Hanekawa guessed that they were Jiraiya, Akimichi Torifu, Hatake Sakumo or Namikaze Minato.

They all had missions so they didn't return in time to attend the Jonin meeting.

After that, there are the heads of the Xiaonin clan and the famous Jonin, such as Hyuga Hizashi.

"I called everyone here today because we received two extremely important pieces of information."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly, "The first piece of information is that there is a serious conflict between Rasa and Hayakura in Sunagakure Village."

Hanekawa's mind moved and he couldn't help but think about it.

After the third Kazekage disappeared, it was Rasa who became the acting Kazekage.

Because of his strong strength and the fact that the third generation Kazekage has not returned yet, he finally became a full-time official and became the fourth generation Kazekage.

Rasa is the father of Gaara, Kankuro and Temari.

Ye Cang is one of the top jounin in Sunagakure Village, but unfortunately he became a victim of the war.

During the Third Ninja War, Sunagakure Village was unable to fight Kirigakure Village anymore, so they came up with a clever plan.

Kazekage Rasa and the senior management of Sand Hidden Village sent Ye Cang to Kirigakure Village to perform a secret mission.

But as soon as he arrived at the designated place, he was surrounded by ninjas from Kirigakure Village, and eventually died in the ambush.

"Why is there a conflict?"

Mito Kadoyan asked in confusion.

"Not long ago, Luo Sha suffered an assassination, which was later confirmed to be carried out by Ye Cang."

Sarutobi Hiruzen replied, "Although Yegura doesn't admit it, his relationship with Rasa has dropped to the extreme, and the two sides are at war with each other."

"Won't the Third Kazekage come forward to mediate?"

After turning to bed, Xiaochun raised his eyebrows and asked.

Although Rasa and Ye Cang are both strong contenders to be the next Kazekage, the third Kazekage has not yet abdicated, so it would be unreasonable to name the competition now.

"The Third Kazekage hasn't appeared for a long time."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly, "I suspect that he has disappeared or died."

"What?"

There was inevitable commotion in the conference room.

Although they had experienced many battles, they still could not conceal their surprise when they suddenly heard such news.

This feeling was like they suddenly heard that Sarutobi Hiruzen was missing or dead.

What a dream!

"Good opportunity!"

Shimura Danzo cheered up and said, "We should immediately organize the ninjas to fight against Sunagakure Village and capture them as quickly as possible!"

He has always been the main militant faction of Konoha Village, so it is not surprising that he proposed this plan.

And this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and many jounin in the conference room showed approval.

"inappropriate."

Mito Kadenyan frowned and said, "If we can know this news, Kumogakure Village, Iwagakure Village and Kirigakure Village will all know."

What he means is self-evident.

The situation in the ninja world is chaotic. If Konoha Village sends out too many ninjas, the other ninja villages will not sit idly by.

At that time, Konoha Village may be attacked from both sides and be in trouble.

"Konoha Village is the strongest ninja village, why should we be afraid of them?"

Danzo Shimura stood up, slapped the table, and asked in an excited tone, "Have you forgotten the glory of the First Ninja Village?"

"Danzo!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at him.

Danzo Shimura snorted and sat down again.

He just showed his true feelings and also had a certain element of expression.

Because once the war starts, his roots will no longer be restricted and he can do whatever he wants.

And he really didn't think Konoha Village would lose.

After all, in the first two ninja wars, Konoha Village didn't say it was a big win, but it didn't become a loser.

"Let me tell you the second piece of information first."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment and said, "Minato discovered four hundred more Kumogakure ninjas at the border of the Kingdom of Thunder yesterday."

"What does this mean?"

"Is there going to be a war in Yunyin Village?"

"But four hundred ninjas are not large enough to start a war!"

The Jonin in the conference room immediately started talking.

"This is a provocation from Yunyin Village!"

Danzo Shimura said with a dissatisfied look on his face, "We should fight back!"

"It does seem like a provocation."

Xiaochun, who went to bed, agreed.

"Hokage-sama."

Nara Shikaku stood up and asked, "Are these two things related?"

"Are you saying that Cloud Hidden Village and Sunagakure Village are joining forces?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said, "With the character of the Third Raikage, there is a high probability that this kind of thing will not happen."

"No matter what Cloud Hidden Village wants to do, they must be stopped!"

Danzo Shimura said with a righteous look on his face, "Please give us the root, and we will definitely make it impossible for them to come back!"

"quiet!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped everyone's quarrel and set the tone, saying, "The Leaf Village will not initiate a war."

"Hiruzhan, you are too steady!"

Shimura Danzo immediately looked disappointed when he heard this and said, "This will only miss a good opportunity!"

"I just don't want to cause too much damage to the Leaf Village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly, "Furthermore, the situation in Sunagakure Village is unknown, and the possibility of a trap cannot be ruled out."

"Hiruzen has a point."

Mito Kadoen agreed, "What if the Third Kazekage disappeared on purpose?"

"The ANBU will conduct the investigation over the Sunagakure Village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while and said, "At the same time, pay close attention to the movements of the other ninja villages and increase border patrols."

"Yunyin Village..."

Shimura Danzo was just about to ask for another fight when he was interrupted.

"Tsunade, take four hundred ninjas to support Minato."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Tsunade and said, "The main thing is to stabilize the situation."

He originally wanted to send Orochimaru, but his personality is somewhat similar to Shimura Danzo, and it is easy to expand the scale of the war.

"Hiruzen!"

Shimura Danzo subconsciously shouted.

"I am the Hokage!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen ended the game directly.

Shimura Danzo was so angry that he was shaking all over, but there was nothing he could do.

Tsunade frowned slightly.

She subconsciously glanced at Hanekawa.

She wanted to refuse such a troublesome thing, but then she thought about it, this was the best opportunity for exercise.

The scale of four hundred ninjas is neither large nor small.

Judging from the current situation, the Third Ninja War may be inevitable.

Before that, Hanekawa and the others should get used to it and treat them as if they were going out on A-level or S-level missions.

"Meeting dismissed."

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused and said, "Tsunade stays."

Danzo Shimura left first with a look of displeasure on his face.

Soon, only Tsunade and Hanekawa were left in the classroom.

"Any other instructions?"

Tsunade took the initiative and asked.

"It has nothing to do with Yunyin Village, it's the Akatsuki organization."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile, "Jiraiya has successfully reached cooperation with the Akatsuki organization a few days ago."

"What does it have to do with me?"

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "Just be responsible and don't look for me."

"After all, you and Hanekawa came up with this idea, so I need to inform you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen had long been accustomed to her attitude, so he didn't care.

"Who do you want to be responsible for the dispatch of four hundred ninjas?"

Tsunade changed the subject.

"I will let Shikaku follow you and be your adviser."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said, "You don't need to do anything, you just need to show up."

He sent Tsunade for two reasons.

The first is to prevent Yunyin Village from causing trouble, and the second is to deter and contain Yunyin Village.

There are not many ninjas in Konoha Village who have such ability, except for the Sannin of Konoha, only Hatake Sakumo.

As for him and the two Hokage advisors, they would not take the initiative to go to the battlefield until the last moment.

"Um."

Tsunade nodded slightly.

She was very satisfied with this situation, which made it easier to train Hanekawa and the others.

"Sunagakure Village, what do you think?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly remembered something and said, "You didn't express any opinions just now."

"Hanekawa, come here!"

Tsunade slapped Hanekawa on the back.

"...?"

Hanekawa, who was watching the show, was suddenly confused.

"Hanekawa, if you have an idea, just say it."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Hanekawa and said, "The support you proposed before for the Akatsuki organization is very good."

"Ye Cang's attack on Luo Sha raises many suspicions."

Hanekawa thought for a moment and said, "It's very possible that someone framed me, maybe it's Yunyin Village."

"good."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little surprised and said, "You see clearly."

He had always thought that supporting the Akatsuki organization was Tsunade's idea, and Hanekawa was just a cover.

It doesn't look like it now.

"No matter who they are, their purpose is to provoke civil strife in Sunagakure Village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said, "And the civil strife in Sunagakure Village is also extremely beneficial to us."

Hanekawa secretly said that he was indeed an old fox.

Not taking the initiative to start a war is mostly just a pretense. If it is really profitable, Sarutobi Hiruzen will not miss it.

But as Shimura Danzo said, he is relatively stable and will not attack rashly if he is not sure.

"Let's go!"

Seeing that the conversation was over, Tsunade turned and left.

Hanekawa greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen and quickly followed him.

"There's going to be a war again."

Tsunade sighed as she walked out of the Hokage Building.

"Konoha Village will definitely win."

Hanekawa said comfortingly.

"How can there be any guarantee of winning in a war?"

Tsunade glanced at him and said, "No matter who wins or loses, they will pay the price."

Hanekawa nodded slightly.

Even though he had a cheat and was still Tsunade's student, he couldn't say that he was 100% safe.

After all, even the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, who possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique, will die.

"Don't be too nervous, the teacher is here."

A smile appeared on Tsunade's face.

This time, she will never let the tragedy of Rope Tree happen again.

Although it was very warm, Hanekawa still wanted to say not to plant the flag before the war!

"The four hundred ninjas will not engage in any large-scale battles. Most of them will be trials and ninja team battles."

Tsunade said as she walked, "But the intensity will be much higher than ordinary tasks, so you have to be mentally prepared."

"I see."

Hanekawa nodded and said.

"You have always been mature. I won't say more. You just need to remember a few things and be careful."

Tsunade warned.

"Um."

Hanekawa couldn't help laughing and said, "It's rare to see a teacher so verbose."

"What? You still dislike it?"

Tsunade raised her hand and flicked him on the forehead.

"Don't dare."

Hanekawa said seriously, "I remember every word the teacher said!"

"It better be this way!"

Tsunade glared at him and said.

The two returned home, and less than an hour later, there was a knock on the door.

"Tsunade-sama."

The person who walked in through the door was Nara Shikaku.

"How's it going?"

Tsunade asked, nodding slightly.

"This is a list of four hundred ninjas."

Nara Shikaku took out a piece of information and said.

"No problem."

Tsunade took a quick look and found that the lowest level was Chuunin.

After all, this mission is not easy. He will fight the ninjas of Yunyin Village, so he must not be too weak.

"I'll inform them later."

Nara Shikaku paused and asked, "Tsunade-sama, when will we set off?"

"Nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

Tsunade pondered for a moment and said, "One day should be enough."

"yes."

Nara Shikaku responded, took out another piece of information, and said, "This is the current situation of the battlefield reported by Minato."

Tsunade's eyes narrowed slightly and she looked up.

At present, the main battlefield between the two sides is located in the Kingdom of Frost, a small country at the junction of the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Thunder.

The leaders of Yunyin Village are Ai and Kirabi, known as the AB combination.

The most troublesome one is Kirabi.

Because he did not hide his identity, he was the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki of this generation.

As a Jinchuuriki, he undoubtedly has the ability to influence the situation of the battle.

Once the tailed beast is completely transformed, the consequences will be disastrous.

Tsunade rubbed her forehead.

It's a pity that there is no way to bring Uzumaki Kushina there.

Compared to Kumogakure Village, Konohagakure is particularly strict with jinchūriki.

"I see."

Tsunade returned the information to Nara Shikaku.

"Tsunade-sama, then I will take one step."

Nara Shikaku stood up and said.

Tsunade can be the hands-off shopkeeper, but he can't. He needs to coordinate all aspects of things.

"Lin and Hong, it's up to you to inform them."

Tsunade looked at Hanekawa and said.

"Um."

Hanekawa nodded.

The time came at night.

After Hanekawa made dinner for Tsunade, he went to Nohara Rin's house to inform her, and finally returned to Yuhi Kurenai's house.

Kurenai Yuhi had no idea about war, but Kurenai Yuhi was very cautious.

After dinner, we took them together and chatted about tips for surviving on the battlefield.

Such as fake hitting.

In a big melee, the genjutsu ninja can use illusions to control an enemy ninja and stage a fake fight with himself.

Hanekawa had a subtle expression on his face.

There is something seriously wrong with your will of fire!

But it has to be said that these techniques can greatly increase the survival rate on the battlefield.

A new day.

Hanekawa got up early.

Because he planned to go to Tuqiao to ask about the situation before setting off to the front line of Yunyin Village.

"You came just in time."

As soon as Doqiao saw him, he came up to him and said, "I was just going to find you."

"What's up?"

Hanekawa raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The information about the disappearance of the Third Kazekage has been confirmed."

Dohashi took out a scroll and said with a smile, "This is the reward given to you by Yunyin Village."

Hanekawa's heart moved and he quickly opened the scroll.

But what disappointed him was that this was not the Thunder Release Chakra mode, but three Thunder Release Ninja Taijutsu.

Thunder Torture Level, Righteous Thunder, Shen Fury Thunder Ax and Heavy Flow Storm.
