Naruto opens the eight gates and kicks the Otsutsuki God

"Shikamaru, let go of Temari. The matter has come to an end. Let's go back and rest first. Let's wait for Konoha's subsequent notification about the Chunin Exam."

Shikamaru asked puzzledly:"But we are in an advantageous position now. They are our enemies. Now it is not the Chunin Exam, but a war between ninjas."

Even with Shikamaru's intelligence, he couldn't understand what Naruto was thinking now.

He knew the two people in front of him very well.

The children of the Kazekage of the Sand Village, a perfect hostage. It is very likely that the Sand Village attacked Konoha tonight.

Seeing that they just rushed here in a hurry, it should be that Konoha has successfully controlled the situation.

In other words, they are in an advantageous position now. If they are caught, they will have a more advantageous position in the next negotiation between the two major ninja villages.

Naruto stood behind Shikamaru and said softly:"The Sand Village is our enemy at present, but they may become our friends after a while. It will even be more beneficial for us if they go back."

Shikamaru saw Naruto insisted and stopped asking.

The strength that Naruto showed in front of him tonight has long surpassed his cognition.

Conservatively estimated, it has reached the level of elite jonin.

The most terrifying thing is that not long ago, Naruto was still the last one in the class.

If you tell others about this, I'm afraid no one will believe that a person can improve so quickly in a short period of time.

Temari looked at Shikamaru who reluctantly released his control over her and said to him coldly:

"It's really troublesome when a grown man is so slow in doing things. I owe you this time, and I,

Temari, will repay you later." After saying that, he took Kankuro and ran towards Gaara without looking back.

Shikamaru held his forehead with his hand:"I let you go this time for Naruto's sake, and you actually want it next time, and you're ready to repay me!"

"Oh, I really can't understand your train of thought, woman."

Naruto silently watched Shikamaru complain about Temari, feeling ashamed.

This is completely different from when you were in love with Temari in the later period, and you were much more shy with a red face.

Shikamaru looked at Naruto staring at him and couldn't help asking,"Naruto, is there something on my face?"

Naruto waved his hand and said with a smile,"No, now that the matter is over, let's retreat first."

Shikamaru nodded:"I have told them in advance to keep everything about tonight secret."

Shikamaru thought about it and added with relief:"Naruto, you are very good now."

Naruto scratched his head. It was not easy to be praised by this military advisor.

…………

On the dim grass.

Temari and Kankuro looked at Gaara lying on the ground not far away, looking extremely weak at the moment.

This scene set off a storm in Temari and Kankuro's hearts.

In their memories, almost no one could compete with Gaara.

Who on earth had the ability to beat him like this?

This was a scene they had never seen before.

For a long time, Gaara had been regarded as a monster by them because of his powerful strength and bloodthirsty character, and they were afraid of him.

But at this moment, Temari walked up to Gaara, bent down and helped him up.

Kankuro thought that he was at least Gaara's brother in name, and after hesitating for a moment, he quickly walked forward and stretched out his hand to help Gaara up.

""Thank you, Temari, Kankuro."

Gaara's hoarse voice suddenly broke the silence.

This simple sentence was like a thunderclap, exploding in Temari and Kankuro's hearts.

Compared to seeing Gaara defeated, this sentence made them feel more incredible.

They looked at each other, and a thought flashed through their minds at the same time: Gaara has changed!

He is no longer the"monster" that scared them, and seems to have the human touch that was missing before.

This also created an emotional bond between them as brothers and sisters.

Is it that kid Naruto??!

……………

Danzo sat in the Hokage's office with his arms crossed and a look of satisfaction on his face.

According to the latest intelligence, the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body has successfully run wild.

The only way to quell the Nine-Tails rebellion is for Sarutobi Hiruzen to pay with his life.

And he will become the Fifth Hokage and lead Konoha to become bigger and stronger.

Danzo couldn't help but sigh softly:"Today is a wonderful night!"

The first thing he did after becoming Hokage was to make a name for himself and take revenge on the Sand Village.

Let the outside world see that Konoha is not easy to mess with under the leadership of Danzo...

Just as Danzo was immersed in beautiful imaginations, the door was opened.

What he didn't expect was that Sarutobi Hiruzen actually walked in.

Seeing Danzo's face full of questions, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but say:"Konoha has suffered a huge crisis. In the operation to defend Konoha, I didn't see a single member of your Root?"

"And why are you sitting in my seat?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued,"You seem very surprised by my arrival."

"Shouldn't I come here to meet you, or shouldn't I meet you alive?"

Faced with Sarutobi Hiruzen's three consecutive questions, Danzo's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

He couldn't figure out which link had gone wrong.

The plot was completely correct, why was the ending wrong.

A possibility emerged in Danzo's mind, and he sneered in his heart.

It seems that he overestimated Sarutobi Hiruzen's will of fire.

Can't he sacrifice his life like the fourth generation in the face of the Nine-Tails?

As expected, monkey!

You completely grasped the psychology of the second generation Hokage at the beginning.

What a hypocritical guy.

He always suppresses himself with the identity of the third generation Hokage.

And he keeps emphasizing the identity between us.

Isn't it just to make himself understand: Sarutobi Hiruzen was able to become Hokage because he had a firm will of fire.

And his hesitation at that time has become an indelible stain and regret in his life.

But now... me, bah!

Danzo felt very comfortable thinking about it

"No way, the Root is Konoha's hidden power and must be used at critical moments."

After Danzo's indifferent reply, he asked Sarutobi Hiruzen:"Have the problems with the tailed beasts been solved?"

Danzo could feel that Sarutobi Hiruzen was very angry that his Root chose to sit back and do nothing during this operation.

But he was only angry at himself and the Root.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen was the Hokage, he was not afraid of him.

In addition to asking about the information Sarutobi Hiruzen had, he also wanted to take the opportunity to disgust him.

"Of course it's all solved, but don't try to change the subject, my next question needs an answer!"

"I want to know what role you played in the attack on Konoha this time."

All solved???"

Danzo was stunned. These are two tailed beasts, not two pets.

One of them is the Nine-Tails, which is known as the strongest tailed beast.

Just move your lips and tell me that everything is solved.
