Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 219 Shut up, I am the Hokage, I have the final say
It has been decided that Senju Tobirama will be the captain of this team.

Team members include Kakashi Hatake, Might Guy, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto Uzumaki.

These five people went to the Land of Water to search for the location of the Three-Tails based on information from the intelligence department, while searching for members of the Akatsuki organization.

No prisoners, no live persons, no nonsense.

When they meet, their purpose is to kill each other.

Uchiha Itachi had long since sold out all the information about Akatsuki, and even the new member of Akatsuki, Hiruzen, was sold out by him.

Without a doubt, another Konoha rebel.

Tobirama Senju felt a little toothache when he looked at the information about Akatsuki in his hand.

In addition to Uchiha Itachi, who can barely be considered a member of Konoha, there is Orochimaru who had previously left the Akatsuki organization, as well as Uchiha Obito and Hokuro.

These three ninjas are all Konoha rebels.

There is also Nagato, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, and Konan, who are also disciples of the Konoha ninja Jiraiya.

Adding Uchiha Itachi's words, when all is said and done, those who are related to Konoha account for half of the Akatsuki organization.

"Okay, I see."

"None of these people will be able to escape alive from my hands."

Senju Tobirama put away the information in his hand, looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him and spoke.

"Well, during the mission, everything must be done according to Lord Tobirama's orders, and no one is allowed to disobey."

Sakura tapped the table and looked at the newly formed team before her, then set her sights on the golden retriever.

"Especially you, Naruto, don't act on impulse."

Sakura emphasized.

"Eh?"

"Why did Sakura only mention me..."

“It’s very embarrassing…”

Naruto couldn't help feeling frustrated as he looked at Sakura, whose eyes were somewhat stern.

"Humph, you're the most unexpected ninja."

Sasuke interrupted with a smile in his eyes.

"Why is this..."

Looking at the frustrated Naruto, Sakura stroked her chin and said:

"If your performance in this mission Naruto can be recognized by Lord Tobirama, I can let Lord Tobirama teach you new ninjutsu."

Sakura chuckled as Naruto spoke.

"Eh?!"

"real or fake!"

Naruto immediately revived with full health upon hearing this.

"When have I ever lied to you?"

"Oh yeah!"

"I will definitely make Uncle Yingyan recognize me!"

Looking at the joyful golden-haired boy beside him, Senju Tobirama couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Have I been sold out?
Can this pink-haired girl ask for my opinion?
"Okay, let's go without further ado."

Sakura waved her hand.

"Sakura, wait for our good news!"

Watching everyone leave, Sakura couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The team is led by Tobirama Senju, with Might Guy as the backup.

And Sasuke's Mangekyō of Fate.

To be honest, even if Payne came in person, he might not be able to defeat this team.

At worst, Sasuke can use his Mangekyō to control Naruto and directly explode the Nine-Tails.

Every one that comes will die.

Unless the Akatsuki organization rushes in.

Unintentionally, Sakura seemed to have foreseen Akatsuki's future.

After everyone left, Sakura took out the scroll of Flying Thunder God Jutsu from the drawer.

Now that she is the Hokage, everything in Konoha is open to her, so naturally she can see whatever she wants.

-

After leaving the Hokage Building, Tobirama's team prepared to go directly to the Water Country without any hesitation.

However, before they left the gate of Konoha, they met someone.

"Lustful fairy!"

Naruto greeted Jiraiya.

"Naruto?"

"This is what you are doing?"

Jiraiya looked at the fully armed men with some confusion.

"This time I am..."

"Naruto."

Senju Tobirama glanced at the boy who was only sixteen years old.

"Forehead……"

"Hey, nothing..."

Naruto then realized that the mission was an S-rank mission of the highest level and was kept absolutely confidential.

"Master Tobirama, is there something..."

Jiraiya looked at the people in front of him, and seemed to be aware of something in his heart.

"It's none of your business, just go do what you need to do."

Senju Tobirama didn't give a good look to the 'genius' of Konoha in front of him and led his men away directly.

"Hey, see you later, lecherous immortal!"

Naruto said goodbye to Jiraiya and quickly caught up with the others.

Looking at the few people, Jiraiya frowned slightly.

What tasks require these people to perform together.

Yes……

dawn!
Nagato!

Jiraiya suddenly woke up.

Yes!

One Hokage and three Jonins!

Although I don’t know why he brought Naruto with him, Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!

With this kind of lineup, who else can be the opponent except the Akatsuki organization led by Nagato? !
Is Konoha finally going to take action against Nagato? !

Jiraiya had thought that this day would come, but he didn't expect it to come so soon!

The moment Tobirama Senju was resurrected, Sakura started to attack Nagato!
Thinking of the red-haired boy when he left the Rain Country, Jiraiya gritted his teeth.

The rest of the Akatsuki organization died, but Nagato and Konan...

-

boom!
The door of the office was suddenly slammed open, which made Sakura, who was concentrating on looking at the scroll, frown.

"Sakura!"

Jiraiya rushed in front of Sakura, panting lightly.

"Jiraiya, there shouldn't be any need for me to teach you how to open the door, right?"

Sakura couldn't help but frown as she looked at the man in front of her.

"Uh, sorry."

"But that's not important. Are you planning on doing something to Nagato?"

Jiraiya spoke directly and hastily.

"how?"

"Have you met the second generation?"

Sakura felt a headache.

It goes without saying that all the team led by Senju Tobirama are tight-lipped people.

Except for that guy Naruto.

"Yes!"

Seeing that Sakura did not deny it, Jiraiya quickly spoke:
"Sakura, if Nagato is caught."

"what will you do?"

Looking at Jiraiya in front of her, Sakura put down the scroll in her hand, leaned back in her chair, looked at Jiraiya calmly and said:

"What do you think I'm going to do?"

Sakura's reaction was so calm that Jiraiya was speechless.

Jiraiya knew the other person's character too well.

Sakura never held back when dealing with her enemies.

"I……"

Jiraiya gritted his teeth and looked at the girl in the Hokage robe in front of him.

"Let me go!"

"Let me go to the Land of Rain!"

"I can convince Nagato not to go against Konoha!"

Jiraiya's words were so innocent that Sakura shook her head slightly.

"Jiraiya, do you think it's enough for him not to go against Konoha?"

"First, go to the Monument to the Heroes and ask those compatriots who died at the hands of Akatsuki on the battlefield if they are willing."

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, too many Konoha ninjas died directly or indirectly because of the Akatsuki organization.

This is something that can be put down with just a few words.

"..."

Jiraiya pursed his lips tightly, stared at the girl in front of him, and spoke slowly:
"Nagato is the son of prophecy mentioned by the Great Toad Sage. Before he was ten years old, he had already mastered the nature and form changes of the five chakra attributes."

"And there is also an unknown Samsara Eye."

"If you want to do something to him, you will definitely pay an extremely heavy price."

Hearing this, Sakura flipped through the Flying Thunder God Scroll in her hand and said indifferently:

"so what?"

Jiraiya stared at the girl in front of him, and said with some regret:
"Do you know what these mean?!"

"Nagato is definitely not someone that an ordinary ninja can fight against!"

Snapped!
The scroll in her hand was closed, and Sakura slowly stood up, her green eyes full of indifference.

"So you think I'm an average ninja?"

Jiraiya looked at Sakura in front of him and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Is Sakura an average ninja?

Of course not.

At the age of twelve, she had already dominated the ninja world. In one war, three of the five most powerful Kage became her stepping stones.

Now, at the age of sixteen, he has become the leader of the most violent organization in the ninja world.

How could such a person be described as an ordinary ninja?

"That was not what I meant?"

"Don't argue with me."

Jiraiya said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

The girl frowned slightly when she heard this, but Jiraiya continued speaking.

"If we want to take action against Nagato, we must have his information."

"so……"

"So you want to go to the Hidden Rain Village?"

The girl spoke.

"Yes!"

This is Jiraiya's purpose.

Until this moment, he still hasn't given up his original purpose.

He wanted to talk to Nagato, his disciple, the son of prophecy mentioned by the great toad sage.

Tell him to let go of Akatsuki and not go against Konoha.

Be it the Senju Tobirama team that has already set off, or Sakura who is in charge of Konoha, in Jiraiya's opinion, neither of them is someone that Nagato can deal with.

He had previously explained Nagato's talent and the Rinnegan to Sakura in order to tell her how difficult Nagato was and to make her give up the urge to attack Nagato so that he could negotiate with Nagato first.

It just seemed to have the opposite effect.

"impossible!"

When dealing with the Akatsuki organization, didn’t Sakura consider Jiraiya?
Of course they considered it, but just to prevent him from rushing into the Akatsuki organization's base camp and dying in vain, they didn't let him go.

There is not only Pain in the Hidden Rain Village, but also other members of the Akatsuki organization.

In addition, the Hidden Rain Village is also the first ninja village after the five major ninja villages.

Even though its number of ninjas is not as large as Konoha's, it is still not a small number.

In the original work, Jiraiya broke into the Hidden Rain Village. Nagato had no intention of attacking Jiraiya at the beginning, and first asked Konan to persuade Jiraiya to leave.

Jiraiya refused to leave, and later on, Pain came on one after another. He killed three Pains with one move of Toad Singing. He had no choice but to let Tendao come on the field. At this time, a lot of information had been leaked, so he had no choice but to kill Jiraiya.

"Sacula!"

Jiraiya was furious, his voice rising slightly.

"Jiraiya, you should address me as Hokage-sama."

Sakura's expression remained unchanged as she looked at the man in front of her calmly. "..."

The man's tone paused, and he looked at the girl in front of him, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart. He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Let's go back."

"Don't go out running anymore."

"I've been out there for so many years, it's time to take a break."

Sakura looked at the man in front of her and her tone softened.

"Sakura, you're going to regret this."

???

"Shut up, I'm the Hokage, I have the final say."

Looking at Jiraiya's back as he left silently, Sakura sat back down and rubbed her forehead helplessly.

Ask yourself.

Jiraiya's idea was really naive.

Sakura has known Jiraiya for such a long time. As long as the so-called Child of Prophecy was not involved, she should have been quite steady. However, as soon as the topic of the Child of Prophecy came up, she became like she had lost her mind.

With Jiraiya's departure, the office finally became quiet.

Sakura was about to continue flipping through the Flying Thunder God Scroll in her hand, but before long another person came to the Hokage's office.

"Old horse?"

Looking at the man in front of her, Sakura was a little surprised.

"Sakura, I have something to tell you."

Asuma looked at Sakura with a serious expression and spoke.

"what happened?"

Sakura closed the scroll in her hand.

Asuma took a letter out of his mouth and placed it in front of Sakura.

"This is a letter sent to me by Fire Temple Jilu."

"Sakura, take a look."

Asuma felt a little sad.

Sakura opened the letter in her hand and narrowed her eyes slightly as she read its contents.

This is a letter inviting Asuma to the Fire Temple.

Among them, Di Lu said that he had not seen his friend for a long time and wanted to invite Asuma to a gathering.

The words implied that some nobles would also be present.

"Oh, these people don't know the difference between respect and inferiority."

With a hint of coldness in the corners of her eyes, Sakura spoke nonchalantly.

Sakura didn't know what kind of person Dilu was.

But monks should stay in the temple and chant sutras and praise Buddha's name honestly, and should not get involved in such things.

But if you think about it carefully, if Di Lu was really an honest monk, how could he join the Twelve Guardian Ninjas and come into contact with the daimyo?

Now that the Daimyo is in Konoha, the Twelve Guardian Ninjas are like a joke.

Sakura thought of the previous time she came to Konoha, when she came to Himura.

This might be the other party's work.

With the wealth of the entire Fire Country flowing to Konoha with the daimyo, these nobles can no longer sit still.

"so what should I do?"

Asuma looked at Sakura hesitantly.

Asuma also knew that the Daimyo was currently in Konoha. He also knew that Sakura's attitude towards the nobles was a bit subtle now. It was originally just a private matter and there was no need to ask the Hokage about it.

But in this case, Asuma also came to Sakura to ask first.

"Bring Red Bean, Baiyun Morning, Maruboshi Kosuke."

"You four go together."

Asuma was a little stunned by Sakura's words.

Baiyun Zaojian and Maruboshi Kosuke are fine, as these two are both extremely steady and veteran ninjas.

Although Maruboshi Kosuke is nominally a Genin, he is actually an experienced and powerful ninja.

But red beans...

"Anko is the captain."

???

Asuma was even more confused by Sakura's words.

red beans?

team leader?

Among Asma, Baiyun Zaojian, and Maruboshi Kosuke, which one is not more reliable than Hongdou?

"that's it."

Even though Asuma had a lot of questions, Sakura obviously didn't want to say anything more.

"That's fine."

Asuma was about to leave with some inexplicable thoughts in his mind, but Sakura suddenly called him back.

"and many more."

"Anything else?"

Asuma was confused.

"Take a copy of this information with you, just in case."

After that, Sakura threw a piece of information about Akatsuki to Asuma.

After all, Konoha is some distance away from the Fire Temple, and in the original work, the Immortal Duo directly destroyed the Fire Temple in the Fire Country. It is always better to be prepared for any eventuality on this trip.

"Well, I see."

After taking a look at the information in his hand, Asuma left.

Looking at the old horse leaving, Sakura couldn't help but think deeply.

In fact, it would be a waste of manpower to let Baiyun Zaoma and Maruboshi Kosuke go together.

Asuma and Anko are enough.

But just in case, to prevent this guardian ninja worth 35 million taels from being killed by an old man who is almost a hundred years old, Baiyun Zaoma and Maruboshi Kosuke were added.

Three jonin plus one special jonin, even if they can't win, running away is enough.

As for why Hongdou was chosen as the captain.

Sakura really likes Anko's personality, especially when she appears at gatherings like this which Sakura doesn't like.

As a result, Sakura liked Anko's personality even more.

Of course, Sakura would like it even more if she could keep in shape and not eat so much sweets.

However, even as the Hokage, he cannot control what his subordinates like to eat.

I can only watch the red beans turn into sweet potatoes step by step.

Looking at the office that had finally become quiet, Sakura formed a seal with one hand.

With a bang, white smoke appeared, and a shadow clone that looked exactly like Sakura appeared beside her.

"You continue to stay here, I'm leaving first."

Sakura instructed the clone.

"What? You went out to play by yourself and left me here."

The clone looked at Sakura with dissatisfaction.

This is just an ordinary shadow clone, not Ri-Yakura.

If Rin was left in the Hokage's office, Konoha would be in chaos the next day.

Maybe it will be faster...

"Don't worry, I'll bring you something delicious later."

Sakura smiled and pulled the shadow clone's cheek, but the shadow clone just looked at Sakura expressionlessly.

Oh, bring some delicious food?
Still don't know who will eat it?
Watching the original body rushing out of the window with light steps, the shadow clone couldn't help but look resentful.

It's fine if she's not needed on weekdays, but she finally comes out and has to work...

Evil capitalist!

Sakura rushed out of the window and landed beautifully, avoiding everything. Then she disappeared with a puff of smoke.

-

water country

Somewhere Lake
"Wow, is this the Three-Tails?"

"What a big turtle!"

"Ok!"

The blond boy stepped on a white clay bird and looked at the vast lake. He couldn't help but exclaimed at the huge black shadow under the water.

"Idiot, get rid of him quickly."

Scorpion of the Red Sand was also sitting on the clay bird, looking at Deidara beside him and spoke with dissatisfaction.

"Hey, hey, hey, Scorpion Dana, let me show you my most unparalleled art!"

"Ok!"

Deidara reached out from the ninja tool bag behind his waist and took out a ball of white clay, then the two mouths in his palms swallowed all the clay and kept chewing it.

After a while, a number of fish-shaped clay bombs were ready.

Those fish-shaped clay bombs seemed to come to life as Deidara input his chakra, and they kept jumping in Deidara's hands.

These bombs were dropped from the sky, and all the clay fish fell into the water and swam towards the huge three-tailed fish at a very fast speed.

Sensing that his clay bomb was approaching the Three-Tails, Deidara immediately pointed a sword with one hand in front of his chest.

“Art is an explosion!”

"Crack!"

Along with Deidara's low shout, several muffled sounds were heard from underwater, and faint flames could be seen emerging.

However, at this moment a column of water shot up into the sky, straight towards Deidara and Scorpion in the sky!

The clay bird was unable to dodge and was hit directly.

Deidara and Scorpion of the Red Sand fell from a high altitude and landed steadily on the water.

"Idiot, is this your art?"

"Not even half as long as eternity."

Scorpion of the Red Sand looked at his teammates, raised the corner of his mouth, and taunted Deidara.

"Tsk, this big turtle is so annoying."

"Ok!"

Deidara couldn't help but curl his lips in the face of Scorpion's ridicule.

"Idiot, just watch me."

"Let me show you what eternal art is."

Scorpion of the Red Sand ignored Deidara's dissatisfaction, and a scroll slipped from his sleeve and fell into his palm.

At this moment, the huge body of Sanwei has emerged from the water.

Against the backdrop of a mountain-like body, Scorpion and Deidara look like two ants.

The three-tailed beast's single eye was exposed, and it looked coldly at the two humans in front of it.

Three years ago, a certain pink-haired man killed his Jinchūriki with one punch, and he had to fall into a deep sleep and begin the countdown to his resurrection.

He never expected that less than a month after his resurrection, ninjas would target him.

He had had enough of this kind of life.

He wants to be free.

He wanted a turtle to stay quietly at the bottom of the water.

ninja...

Go to hell!
"Roar!"

A roar like thunder erupted from Sanwei's mouth, and the entire lake trembled.

Countless chakras began to gather in his mouth!
This is……

Tailed beast jade!
Seeing this, Scorpion of the Red Sand sneered and then showed the scroll in his hand.

The scroll was opened, and the word "four" appeared in the center!
With a bang, a tall humanoid puppet appeared above the water!

That tall body, dark skin, strong and powerful muscles...

This is……

The Fourth Raikage!

The Fourth Raikage who was killed by a pink-haired guy three years ago!
Under the control of the Red Sand Scorpion, the Fourth Raikage moved...

Lightning flashed all over his body, and every strand of his hair stood up!
Thunder escape chakra mode!
"Thunder Plow Hot Knife."

Scorpion of the Red Sand whispered the secret technique of the Hidden Cloud Village, and the Fourth Raikage, who had been transformed into a human puppet, suddenly disappeared from the spot in an instant with lightning all over his body!
One punch!
It hit the three-tailed beast's head directly!
After suffering such a heavy blow, the Tailed Beast Ball in the Three-Tails' hand was fired directly towards the bottom of the lake!

!!!

In an instant, it seemed as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was falling!
The lake was like being hit by a nuclear bomb, and a violent storm accompanied by huge chakra and a tsunami tens of meters high rose into the sky!

At this moment, Scorpion and Deidara were instantly blown away!

Even the huge body of the Three-Tailed Fox was turned upside down!

"good chance!"

"Deidara!"

The Red Sand Scorpion, who was flying backwards, spoke immediately after seeing this.

"No need for you to say more! Scorpion!"

While Deidara was speaking, a clay flying dragon of about 20 to 30 centimeters in length had already taken shape in his hands!
"Go! The beauty of the moment is art!"

With a dragon roar, the toy-sized clay flying dragon turned into a huge monster of twenty or thirty meters in length and rushed towards the three-tailed beast!
