Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage!

Chapter 115: Living in darkness for a long time, the most unclear about oneself

"Let's go take a look first."

Kyohiko sighed.

He couldn't tell whether Orochimaru did it intentionally or unintentionally. In any case, Orochimaru had disappeared to study ninjutsu and left them here.

Namikaze Minato nodded helplessly.

This is the only way for now.

The question is, where does Orochimaru usually work?
"Wait a minute, I'll look for it..."

Jingyan squatted down, spread out his chakra, and sensed the situation around him.

After a moment, he looked towards Minato.

"Want to take a break?"

"Need not."

Namikaze Minato shook his head slightly.

He consumed a lot of energy last night, but he is older than Jingyan and has more physical strength and energy, so he can still hold on.

The same cannot be said for Kurenai Yuhi and Kakashi.

They are children, ordinary people, who were exhausted after a big battle last night.

"Then let's go."

Jingyan instantly rushed forward.

……

Not long after, at a place on Kikyo Mountain, Aburame Zhiwei was looking around.

"Senior Zhiwei."

Kyohiko came over with Minato.

When Aburame Shiwei saw them, she was surprised at first, and then asked: "Why are you here? Aren't you going to rest? I saw you rescued a lot of people after the battle last night."

In the previous battlefield, his bugs had already sensed the Kyouhiko and Minato teams.

Ye Cang was still there at that time, and the effect of Scorch Release was very effective in restraining his insects, so he did not continue to chase them, but went to deal with the rest of the people.

"Where's Ye Cang?"

"I've handed it over to the Anbu ninja to seal and keep it."

Jingyan answered.

Aburame nodded slightly, then quickly realized—

"Captured alive?"

It is much easier to kill a ninja like Ye Cang than to capture him alive.

"lucky."

Jingyan smiled.

Minato poked his hand, and Jingyan immediately remembered the business and took out the token.

"Senior Zhiwei, where is Lord Orochimaru's office?"

"what?"

Aburame Shiwei looked at the token.

Then, a look of surprise and shock appeared on his usually calm face.

"This is Lord Orochimaru's token, symbolizing his authority to command. Why is it here with you?"

Orochimaru is in danger...

Not too possible.

Aburame Shiwei reacted quickly.

"Where is Orochimaru-sama?"

"He's busy, so Minato and I will be taking over for the next few days, but we don't know much, so why don't you take charge?"

"what?"

Aburame Shiwei was at a loss.

Can someone else do this kind of thing?

and.

Orochimaru asked Kyouhiko and Minato to do it, and these two asked him to do it...

He immediately waved his hand to refuse.

“I don’t understand either!”

Now, the three of them looked at each other.

After a moment of silence, Jing Yan said, "Take us to the office first. We know you here."

"I'll take you there."

He walked up the mountain, explaining the situation of Platycodon Mountain.

Mount Kikyo lies between the borders of the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers. It is a relatively dangerous place and also the fortress of Konoha.

The Kikyo City where they lived was at the foot of the mountain.

After wandering around in the mountains for a while, Yume Shiwei led them to a cave.

"This is Lord Orochimaru's office."

"it is good."

Jingyan walked in.

The cave was brightly lit.

There were a lot of documents and intelligence information on the table, he picked up a volume and looked through it, while Minato asked about the casualties and losses of Aburame Shiwei.

Aburame Shiwei told what happened last night.

More than thirty Chunins were killed, especially four Jonins and one Johanin.

"Except for the jonin, we have always suffered heavy casualties in battles with the Sand Village. For example, during the Second World War, most of the casualties were infiltration and assassination."

Aburame Shimizu explained.

Benefiting from multiple abilities such as puppetry, poison and wind escape, the Chunin level of the Sand Village is very powerful.

Konoha doesn't have much advantage in this regard.

However, they had medical ninjas and had a plan in place last night, so the losses were considered small.

Most of the special jonin and jonin who died in battle were caused by Yekura, and there were no casualties among the basic special jonin and above who did not encounter Yekura.

My enemy is his hero.

It has been like this since ancient times.

"Arrange people to meet the medical team, collect and prepare medicinal materials in advance, arrange the accommodation and work area for the medical team, and make proper arrangements for the wounded and pay attention to their injuries..."

Jingyan listened at the side and quickly sorted out his thoughts.

The most important thing right now is to treat the wounded.

He doesn't know how to detoxify, he only knows magic and some basic treatments for external and internal injuries. He can't be of much help, and that's all he can do.

Yu Nu Zhiwei immediately took out a pen and wrote it down, then looked up.

"Any more?"

"We still need to remain vigilant and patrol in the direction of Kawanokuni, shrink the front line, and defend a few strongholds. We won't take the initiative to attack in the short term. There will be a counterattack, but not now."

Jingyan slowly got into the state, and specifically asked, "Issue it in the name of Lord Orochimaru, don't say it's an order from Minato and me."

Aburame Shiwei took note again.

As orders were issued one after another, Aburame Zhiwei took a quick look at them and felt relieved, but also a little sad.

Orochimaru asked Kyouhiko and Minato to be in charge, but his real intention should be to let Kyouhiko have full management power.

As for Minato Namikaze.

Part of it is for assistance, and part of it is for the sake of name.

Jingyan is too young after all.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that a child who was barely ten years old could possess such wisdom?

He put away the booklet and said, "I'll do it right away. Do you need me to send someone to contact the medical team?"

"Need not."

Kyouhiko looked towards Minato.

Namikaze Minato nodded slightly and said, "I can use Flying Thunder God Transmission."

"it is good."

……

At the border of the Kingdom of Wind, in a stronghold built on a barren mountain, the Third Kazekage paced back and forth, looking very uneasy.

An Anbu ninja entered.

He stopped immediately.

"did you find it?"

"Master Fengying, we didn't find Master Yecang, we only found her disciples..."

The ANBU ninja bowed his head.

The Third Kazekage walked out quickly and saw Maki huddled against the door crying.

"Where's your teacher?"

"She said she was going to rescue another group of people and asked us to leave first. But, she never came back."

Maki cried, but still managed to speak clearly.

The Third Kazekage was silent.

Ever since Rasa was attacked and severely injured, he knew that there were powerful people in Konoha, so after bringing Rasa back, he was always worried about Ye Cang's safety.

Last night, he also went out to look for her but couldn't find her.

It can now be basically concluded that Ye Cang is in great danger.

He closed his eyes and held back the grief in his heart.

Ye Cang was a senior ninja trained by his teacher. Over the years, he had helped him do a lot of things. In the battle with the Hidden Mist Village, it was thanks to Ye Cang that they were able to win again and again.

result.

But now...

He was silent for a long time, then lowered his head and said, "Maki, don't cry."

"Yes, Kazekage-sama!"

Even so, Maki continued to cry.

The Third Kazekage patted her shoulder.

"You must inherit your teacher's will and work hard and struggle for the village."

"Yes! I will do it!"

Maki stood straight.

The Third Kazekage entered the house and took out a book.

"I remember that you are good at sealing techniques. Here are some of my experiences in sealing techniques. You can take a look at them. I hope that you can become the pride of our Sand Village in sealing techniques in the future." "Yes!"

Maki took the book and felt a huge sense of responsibility on her shoulders, which made her forget her grief for a while.

After comforting the child, the Third Kazekage walked to the side.

Next door is the temporary hospital.

"Yanye, how is it?"

"Lord Luo Sha is seriously injured, but we have removed the poison and healed his injuries. He should be out of danger and will wake up soon."

Yamane replied.

At this moment, a shout came from inside.

"Lord Luo Sha is awake!"

"Whoosh!"

The Third Kazekage disappeared instantly.

When he saw Luo Sha sitting down, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, nothing happened!

Rasa and Yecang are his right-hand men, but Rasa inherited his magnetic escape technique, which makes him his heir, and naturally more important than Yecang.

"Kazekage-sama."

"No need to stand up, just tell me the process. I need all the information about your enemies."

The Konoha ninjas are quite powerful, as they are able to severely injure Rasa and quickly kill Taira in a short period of time.

Luo Sha knows what is important and what is not.

He immediately told the situation at that time, first narrating it in detail, and then expressing his own views.

"They should be the elite team from Konoha."

"Ah."

Minato Namikaze's team has completed many A-level and above tasks during this period, so it is natural that the intelligence of various villages cannot ignore them.

"By the way, the one who's good at taijutsu has been replaced by a girl. I can't tell what she's good at. I guess it's probably genjutsu."

Luo Sha thought of a detail.

Before Pingliang was killed, he saw Pingliang stunned for a moment, which should be the effect of the illusion.

The Third Kazekage thought about it in his mind.

Three of them are good at speed, and one illusion ninja provides cover and cooperation. It is more comprehensive and difficult to deal with than before.

and.

Listening to Luo Sha's description, it is really surprising that Ryomine Kyohiko's Lightning and Water escape techniques are so powerful.

"This Ryomine Kyouhiko will become our great enemy!"

The Third Kazekage muttered to himself.

This man must be killed!
……

Three poles in the sun.

Kakashi got up, and after a little sense, he found that Jingyan and the others were not in the room at all, including Yuhi Kurenai, who seemed to have gone out after a short rest.

He covered his forehead.

Last night's battle consumed too much chakra. Even if Jingyan didn't say anything, he didn't have much fighting power left.

"Oh, I envy Kyouhiko's chakra amount."

Kakashi sighed.

Then he got out of bed, washed up, and walked out the door.

Kikyo Castle is full of ninjas coming and going.

Different from ordinary towns.

Kikyo Castle is close to Konoha's fortress and serves more as a support force for Kikyo Mountain, so there are many ninjas in the castle.

After taking a few steps, an Anbu ninja appeared in front of him.

"Are you Hatake Kakashi?"

"Yes."

Kakashi looked up at the other man.

The ANBU ninja nodded and said, "Minato Namikaze and Kyohiko Ryomine are now in charge of the affairs around Mount Kikyo on behalf of Lord Orochimaru. Go there when you wake up."

"Where's Yuhi Kurenai?"

"She's in the medical class."

The Anbu ninja said this and disappeared instantly.

Kakashi nodded.

However, what exactly happened? Why did Jingyan and the captain take over the defense here?
Full of doubts, he went to Platycodon Mountain.

When they got there, Kakashi asked questions along the way, and only then did he know...

Actually, Jingyan is the only one here.

Minato Namikaze wasn't there at all.

and so.

The one who is actually in charge of the camp is Jing Yan, not the two of them.

Orochimaru is really reassuring.

but.

Kakashi thought about it carefully and found it normal.

Jingyan is not an ordinary person.

With Orochimaru's ability, how could he not know who was "giving advice" behind Jiraiya and Tsunade?
It's a bit ridiculous, but...

If it were him, he would definitely ask Jingyan to do it.

Kakashi thought to himself.

He walked inside.

Kyohiko heard the footsteps and knew it was Kakashi by his scent.

"Are you here? Help me check the latest information."

"Where's the captain?"

"He was called away."

Jingyan didn't look up.

Minato Namikaze had just been called away by Orochimaru. He probably needed to communicate with Konoha, so using Flying Thunder God would be faster.

Kakashi nodded and picked up a stack of papers on the table.

It's all information from various camps.

He suddenly felt overwhelmed.

……

Konoha, inside the Hokage's office.

When Tsunade saw the latest news, she couldn't help but frown and then tapped her head.

Against the magnetic escape technique, behead the Wind Shadow.

The plan is bold.

but.

After reading the plan, she felt that it was very possible to do.

Therefore, the only problem left is -

Is killing the Kazekage a good thing or a bad thing?
The Third Kazekage is powerful and has great talent. As long as he is alive, the Kingdom of Wind will always want to expand, and even if they are defeated, they will definitely find a way to make a comeback.

Must be killed!

Tsunade made a decision in her mind.

Then, there is no need to look for those two old guys, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu.

After discussing with them, we were able to complete the task within three days, which turned out to be highly efficient.

Tsunade waved her pen and started signing directly, then ordered someone to summon Jiraiya.

……

Several days passed.

The situation of Platycodon Mountain gradually became known to outsiders.

After receiving the information, Ōnoki was eager to give it a try, but considering that a large number of Konoha's senior ninjas had disappeared, he calmed down his somewhat restless mood.

hold on!
Let’s wait until the Hidden Mist Village takes action.

To the east, the two stood side by side looking at the sea in the distance.

"Danzo, it's been a long time since we've fought side by side like this, right?"

"It's just temporary."

Danzo snorted coldly.

He looked off into the distance, "I will prove that I am more fit to be Hokage than you and Tsunade."

"Oh, maybe."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, but there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Naruto...

It's Danzo!
Sooner or later you will die as Hokage.

He took a puff of his cigarette and said nothing more.

Danzo also left quietly.

After a long time, Nara Shikaku came over and handed over some information.

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened it and took a look, then raised his eyebrows and sighed: "War, ah!"

"Third-generation sir, I'm afraid that Danzo will become more and more powerful in Kyoto, right?"

Nara Shikaku frowned.

There was a hint of mockery in Sarutobi Hiruzen's laughter.

"He thinks he can be the Hokage, but people who have lived in darkness for a long time are the least able to recognize themselves."

"what do you mean?"

"He and I are both old men. If he stays content and becomes a consultant, perhaps he can get a decent job. As far as I can see now, hehe, someone will take care of him in the future, so I don't need to worry about it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked off the ashes.

He didn't want to go into battle with Danzo, and right now the Fire Country and Konoha were both in crisis, so it was not suitable for civil strife.

Let's leave this matter to the wisdom of future generations.

With Kyohiko's ability, he will be able to make Danzo obedient in a few years.

Shikaku heard the hidden meaning and stopped asking about Danzo, but instead reported information from all parties.
