Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 447 Preparing for War
Konoha Village, Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Tsunade, and Shikaku Nara, three high-ranking members, finally met the fox.

Hiruzen Sarutobi already had a bad feeling and asked, "Fox, how's the investigation going?"

"The situation is very bad, even terrible," Ye Guang said.

"With the Third Kazekage missing, other ninja villages all want to test the strength of Sunagakure."

The Hidden Mist Village's attack on Sando Port in the Land of Wind had a very simple purpose: to take advantage of the situation and seize Sando Port.

However, the Mist Ninja were not strong enough and quickly retreated.

The troublesome place is Iwagakure.

According to the intelligence I've gathered, Iwagakure's attack on the northern part of the Land of Wind was a feint.

The Iwa ninjas quickly retreated, and I guessed that Onoki and Rasa had already met.

Through a combination of threats and persuasion, Onoki and his opponent reached a kind of cooperative agreement.

Upon hearing this, everyone tensed up.

Compared to the young and inexperienced Rasa and the crazed Hidden Mist Village, Onoki's every move was more likely to affect Konoha.

"The Hidden Mist Village is also making moves," Nightlight said.

"The spy has sent back intelligence that Elder Genji of Kirigakure met with high-ranking officials from other villages in the Land of Waves."

Ye Guang said in a deep voice, "Everyone, according to various signs, other ninja villages are secretly uniting and preparing for war."

Their target is our Konoha Village; it seems an alliance against Konoha is forming in the ninja world.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's terrible premonition came true.

As expected, the other ninja villages, led by Onoki, were plotting against Konoha.

Nara Shikamaru pondered for a moment before speaking:

"I once thought that since Minister Fox was capable of killing the Tailed Beasts, other ninja villages would no longer dare to easily provoke Konoha."

Unexpectedly, Onoki and the Raikage were able to put aside their prejudices and cooperate.

If there were an anti-Konoha alliance, the core of the alliance would definitely be Onoki and the Raikage.

These two joined forces under pressure from Konoha, and I think Rasa, Genji, and others will not let go of this opportunity to challenge the ninja world's order.

Perhaps we will soon see the four great ninja villages unite against Konoha.

Ye Guang said, "I have developed a spy in Sunagakure. That spy is very strong and may be able to delay or even prevent Sunagakure from joining the anti-Konoha alliance."

The combined might bring us annihilation if the four great ninja villages joined forces. But another force is equally terrifying…

Everyone else looked at the fox, wondering who could be a greater threat than the four great ninja villages.

Ye Guang said, "After Madara Uchiha died, he left behind many extremely dangerous subordinates."

Tobi, Nagato Uzumaki, Obito Uchiha, Kasanosuke Sarutobi, and so on.

After being carefully trained by Madara Uchiha, each of these people possessed the strength of a Kage-level ninja.

For the past four years, I've been searching for these people. But they've hidden themselves very well, and I can't find them.

Tobi has the Mangekyou Sharingan, Wood Release, and the Mayfly Technique, allowing him to freely roam underground.

Nagato Uzumaki obtained the legendary Rinnegan.

If Madara Uchiha's subordinates were to join forces with the four great ninja villages, then...

Nara Shikanobu's expression changed; he instantly imagined the worst-case scenario.

The four major ninja villages, with a total of over 50,000 ninjas, invaded the Land of Fire.

With the Kage of each village, along with Madara Uchiha's major subordinates and Jinchuriki, these powerful individuals are wreaking havoc in different directions of the Land of Fire, and Konoha is facing the crisis of annihilation.

The Third Hokage was strong, the fox was strong, but Konoha had too few strong individuals.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Fox, continue to gather intelligence on enemy villages, paying particular attention to the Anti-Konoha Alliance."

Tsunade, you are in charge of preparing war supplies, according to the scale of the Fourth Shinobi World War.

"Shikanobu, you're in charge of organizing the Konoha ninja and forming several ninja legions. Since Onoki and his group want to fight, then let them fight. When has Konoha ever been afraid of war?"

Nara Shikaku stood up and looked at the Hokage who suddenly unleashed a sharp aura, and his unease lessened considerably.

Tsunade and the fox exchanged a glance. This was the first test concerning the life and death of Konoha that they faced after becoming high-ranking members.

As the others were leaving, Hiruzen Sarutobi called out to Yoru.

"Fox, don't go yet."

Only Hiruzen Sarutobi and Yoruichi remained in the office.

"Fox, I should thank you for helping to cover up Orochimaru's matter."

Ye Guang thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be about Orochimaru.

The forbidden techniques Orochimaru is researching are all extremely dangerous.

Reincarnation and Impure World Reincarnation are forbidden techniques that walk the line between life and death, requiring a large number of test subjects.

Orochimaru's subordinates have been helping him collect test subjects, and even Hiruzen Sarutobi's Black Ant squad is helping Orochimaru.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Orochimaru is very important to the village."

In the upcoming Third Shinobi World War, I hope Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade can once again join forces against their common enemy.

Ye Guang nodded and said, "Tsunade is very mature now. With Tsunade watching over Orochimaru and Jiraiya, I don't think they'll have any problems."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "I will recall Jiraiya and have Orochimaru slow down the experiment. The three of them should start training together soon."

Konoha must go all out to deal with the Third Shinobi World War.

We want to show the ninja world that even if they form an anti-Konoha alliance, they can't destroy Konoha.

Ye Guang thought to himself, "After Jiraiya returns to the village, will he target me?"

First it was Kato Dan, then the fox, Jiraiya is so pitiful, he doesn't even get a turn.

After leaving the Hokage's office, Yagami used his teleportation technique to arrive at the training ground behind the Senju clan's territory.

Upon seeing the fox minister, Kushina Uzumaki immediately stopped her battle with Minato.

"Lord Fox, are you taking me to the outside of the village for special training again? I'm ready anytime, let's go now."

Looking at Kushina, Yagami thought to himself, "Onoki, Kushina will definitely give you a surprise."

Barrier teams and sealing teams appeared quickly.

When Yamanaka Ien saw the fox minister nod to him, he knew that the fox minister was going to give the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki special training again.

The group arrived at a secluded valley outside the village.

After quickly assessing the seal's status, Ye Guang instructed Kushina to release the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Tsunade specifically instructed Kushina that she could only break the seal when the fox was present.

Six semi-transparent tails appeared behind Kushina.

Each tail has a diamond chain inside.

Kushina's sanity remained unaffected even in her semi-transparent chakra cloak state.

Kushina first underwent Tailed Beast Ball training. After tilting her head back, red and blue chakra appeared on the translucent head of the Nine-Tails.

Chakra rapidly condensed, forming a Tailed Beast Ball the size of a human head.

Seeing that the Nine-Tails' chakra was very stable, Yakko instructed Kushina to continue extracting more chakra, while he himself teleported to the mountain ridge.

On the mountain ridge, the moonlight swept across Minato Namikaze, whose expression was tense.

All other preparations are sham; Konoha's real preparation should be to give Minato Namikaze a Flying Thunder God Technique.

But Ye Guang isn't the kind of person who selflessly dedicates himself.

Now, he and Minato Namikaze are more like colleagues in Konoha, at most a caring elder and a grateful junior.

How can I give Minato Namikaze a forbidden technique while simultaneously bringing him under my command...?
