Naruto under the bamboo forest

In the secret room beneath the ancestral hall of the Caoqian clan, Cao Qianyu, Cao Qianye and several important elders of the Caoqian clan were sitting together.

Under the dim light, few people spoke. The situation that the family is facing now makes the leaders of these weather-beaten Cao Qian clan not sure how to deal with it. The flickering candle seemed to be extinguished at any moment. Cao Qianyu looked at the candle and thought of the tragic fate that the Cao Qian clan was about to face.

Qianyu Kusanagi spoke: "The information sent back by Naizi is that Iwagakure's ninja troops will enter Kusugakure Village in the near future. I feel that it is the time for the Ura clan to take action. I sent Naizi to make a plan to Konoha. A deal, based on the wealth accumulated by the family over the years, some hidden intelligence bases outside, and the secret techniques collected by the family over the years, I begged Konoha to accept the children of the family after the accident. As for Konoha, they have agreed to my request. Once something unexpected happens, they will send people to the family’s old site in the Land of Fire to accept the family’s children. Forgive me for making this decision without permission, but this is the best way I can think of.”

"You don't have to blame yourself, you have done your best. Faced with such a situation, just do your best and don't be too harsh on yourself." The person who spoke was the elder of the family.

The Great Elder is the oldest member of the Caoqian clan today. He had witnessed the melee of the ninja clan during the Warring States Period, witnessed the establishment of major ninja villages, and was the first ninja from the Kusanagi clan to come to the Country of Grass. He watched Caoyin Village step by step to become what it is now, and also saw the Caoqian clan being constantly squeezed out within Caoyin Village, but he was powerless to stop it all. Now, this old man in his dying years is about to see the destruction of his family. This is undoubtedly the saddest thing for this old man who has fought for his family all his life.

After speaking, the small conference room fell into silence.

After a long silence, the third elder finally couldn't help but break the silence: "Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to attack. Now that Iwagakure's ninjas have not reached it, we suddenly launched an attack and caught them off guard. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope for the village. Having pushed our Cao Qian clan to this point, there is no need for us to maintain this false balance.”

The third elder is a radical in the family. He has always hoped to change the predicament the family is facing by taking control of the village. He even sent someone to assassinate Ura Kumi.

Hearing this, the elder sitting opposite Cao Qianyu glanced at the third elder with his cloudy old eyes: "The power of a family cannot compete with the Ninja Village. The village has already prepared measures to deal with us. We Taking action first will only bring about the demise of the family. Besides, if we take action first, we will save those guys from the Yuliang family from finding excuses."

"How about? Before they take action, secretly move the whole family back to the Land of Fire through the Black Stone Boundary Monument? Konoha is now facing the siege of the four major ninja villages, and Kusugakure will also change its previous neutral attitude and join the attack on Konoha. War, Konoha will definitely accept us in this critical moment." The second elder was also unwilling to face the upcoming fate like this, and suggested unwillingly.

Hearing this, Cao Qianyu shook his head: "Shimura Danzo will not believe us adult ninjas, even if he has to accept us because of the critical battle situation. But the mission assigned to our family must be the most dangerous, and we survived after the war. People will also be invisibly isolated by the native people of the village, and the higher-ups will not trust us ninjas who have experienced "betrayal". This is the bottom line of the conditions that Konoha can accept to accept the children of the family. Only children can better integrate into Konoha's system, and only those children who have not yet grown up and can be controlled by them can make them feel at ease. "

After hearing Cao Qianyu's objection, the second elder stopped talking. How could he not have thought of this after being immersed in politics for many years. He was just like the third elder, unwilling to wait for death. Seeing their family being destroyed is undoubtedly more uncomfortable than killing him for these people who have fought for their family all their lives.

Silence again.

After a long time, Cao Qianye spoke: "The continuation of the family will not be cut off because of this incident. We should believe in the children. As long as people are here, the future of the family is there. I believe they will lead the Cao Qian clan to the future again. luminous."

The great elder took Cao Qianye's words and said: "This is already the best result. Let us old bones add fire to the family's new life!"

At night, Cao Qianyu stood in front of the gate. Seeing a group of Kusagakure ninjas and several Iwagakure ninjas discussing and planning the temporary residence of the Iwagakure ninjas in Kusagakure Village, Ura Kumi arranged the Iwagakure ninjas' residence near the territory of the Kusagakure clan. The Kusagakure clan even fooled Everyone knows what they want to do!

Turning around, he looked at the several Kusanagi clan ninjas who were guarding them. Several ninjas from the Kusanagi clan were all wearing the uniforms of the Kusakure Village special guard force. Although both sides were wearing the same forehead protectors, the exchange of eyes between the two parties showed that the relationship between the two parties was not harmonious. As an excluded clan, the Caoqian family members all smelled something ominous from this depressing atmosphere, although the top management did not say so clearly. Anyone who is not a fool can foresee that a disaster is coming for the Cao Qian clan.

In the past few days, the family has issued the highest order to prepare for war. They are preparing for war within Caoyin Village. Who are they preparing to deal with? Naturally it goes without saying. On the outer periphery, with the help of seclusion, Cao Qianyu can feel that a considerable number of Cao Qianyu's Anbu are lurking. They are preventing the Cao Qian clan from taking a preemptive strike. Both sides are waiting for the last moment to arrive.

Turn around and enter the family. There are more than thirty children near the family ancestral hall. Their ages range from three to eight. They are the fire seeds of the Cao Qian clan and the future who will inherit the name of Cao Qian. The reason why they are placed near the ancestral hall is because when something unexpected happens, they can be quickly transferred to the ancestral hall space through the black stone boundary monument, and then transferred to the Kingdom of Fire.

On the other side, Cao Qianfutang looked downcast at the children playing in front of the ancestral hall square. Apart from Cao Qian Liu Yu, the eleven-year-old Cao Qian Fu Tang is undoubtedly the leader of this generation of clan members. Although the whole person is a bit awkward, he still knows the situation the family is facing now. A few days ago, the patriarch Cao Qianyu and his father Cao Qianye came to see him. They gave him a task. For the task he received, Cao Qianfutang hoped that it was a fake, but his father and the patriarch said With the same painful expression, he told himself that this was the future.

Looking at the children playing, Cao Qianfutang couldn't figure out why such a thing happened. Is power really that important? Is it really okay to sacrifice so many lives for power? And Sister Liuyu, she should be practicing Bamboo Release at the old site of the Fire Nation clan! Does she know about the changes that are about to happen to her family?

Looking at the sad Cao Qianfutang, Cao Qianyu sighed, this was still too cruel for them. Looking at the children who were playing without worrying, Cao Qianyu sighed again. The younger children didn't understand why the family gathered them all together. They just knew that it was more fun when there were more people. Looking at the smiles on the children's faces, Cao Qianyu wanted to protect their smiles, but he knew he couldn't. This is the last peace for the Caoqian clan. Maybe these children will never laugh again in the future!
