Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

"So what if it's in chaos!" the Second Elder roared, his neck stiff. "Chaos is better than losing our home. The village is our root, the source of our dignity as ninjas!"

"Then recall them!"

The elder clenched his jaw, his teeth grinding together. "Even if we are defeated because of this, and pay a heavy price, the Konoha twins must also pay the price!"

"Difficult! Very difficult!"

The Third Elder thought it was impossible. "Don't forget that Hatake Akira has the Flying Thunder God Technique, and he once teleported a Tailed Beast Ball more than 400 kilometers away. Teleporting a mere squadron of ninjas would be no problem for him..."

"Ugh...! What a loser!"

The elder slapped his cheek hard. "I've never encountered anything so humiliating in all my years of life!"

At this moment, he was full of complaints, "We can't beat him head-on, and if we surround him, he has the Flying Thunder God Technique. Even if we set a trap for him, he can still escape when things go wrong!"

"I do have an idea..."

Just as the First Elder was full of complaints and on the verge of tears, the Second Elder suddenly spoke up.

"What method?!" X2

"I remember that the village had researched a sealing technique with strong sealing power, which might have limited Akira Hatake's Flying Thunder God Technique."

The Third Elder stroked his chin. "And don't forget, our village also has a divine artifact!"

The three exchanged a glance, and then uttered three words in unison.

"Amber Vase!" x3

……

"Alright, that's the battle plan. Go back and prepare."

On the other side of the Land of Fire, the commander-in-chief of the army, Minato Namikaze, had also finished assigning the combat missions.

"Yes!"

The captains of the Konoha ninja forces received their orders and left, while Minato Namikaze immediately looked at Jiraiya.

"Teacher, what do you think of my arrangements?"

“Very good, I don’t see anything wrong with it.” Jiraiya smiled slightly. “You are now fully capable of handling things on your own, and in all matters.”

Minato Namikaze's question to Jiraiya wasn't just a polite gesture; he genuinely wanted Jiraiya's help to identify and address any shortcomings.

Jiraiya's praise was not unfounded; the combat mission arranged by Minato Namikaze was indeed impeccable.

After exchanging a glance, both master and apprentice were satisfied.

Jiraiya felt that Minato Namikaze still respected him and had not become arrogant or disrespectful of his elders despite his improved status.

Minato Namikaze also felt that Jiraiya had shown him great kindness, not only by defying public opinion and handing over the position of commander-in-chief to him at the last moment of the war, but also by placing himself in the right position.

This is quite rare; it's as if Jiraiya personally fed Minato Namikaze.

If Jiraiya were to hand over the command to Minato Namikaze when the Konoha forces were on the verge of defeat, it would be an absolute attempt to shift blame.

But now that victory was imminent, and a great one at that, Jiraiya disregarded the objections of most of Konoha's high-ranking officials and handed over the position of commander-in-chief to Minato Namikaze.

This is blatant favoritism!

It's fair to say that Minato Namikaze was incredibly lucky to have a teacher like Jiraiya.

"Thank you, teacher."

Minato Namikaze's voice was somewhat deep, but the emotion in his words was clearly audible.

"You're my disciple, Minato!" Jiraiya laughed heartily, then patted Minato Namikaze's shoulder forcefully. "I only expect one thing: that you lead Konoha to greater stability and health in the future!"

"I will, teacher," Minato Namikaze assured him repeatedly.

"And that's all I can do to help you. After the war ends, I'll be going on a journey..."

"Can……"

Minato Namikaze instantly understood the meaning behind Jiraiya's words. His eyes showed a mixture of reluctance and unwillingness, but he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"I understand, teacher."

Minato Namikaze nodded, then raised his fist. "But before that, I want to say goodbye to my teacher."

"Okay, it's settled."

Jiraiya extended his right hand, and his fist collided heavily with Minato Namikaze's right fist.

……

"Lord Yagura, we have just received information from the village."

Having participated in the Three Kage Summit and reaped considerable benefits, Yagura Karatachi is on his way back.

One of his Mizukage guards, during a brief rest period, reported intelligence to Yagura Karatachi.

"Ah."

Reaching out, Yagura Karatachi took the intelligence report handed to him by the Shadow Guard members and quickly scanned its contents.

"This is a bit tricky..."

Yagura Karatachi pondered for a moment, then shattered the intelligence report in his hand into dust. "Is there really no one in the village capable of doing this?"

"If there isn't a suitable person to become the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tailed Isobu... then I'll have to become its Jinchūriki...?"

To be honest, Yagura Karatachi really didn't want to become a Jinchūriki, because he understood what a Jinchūriki truly carried.

Like all villages with tailed beasts, Kirigakure also experiences cases of tailed beasts injuring people, and these incidents are not uncommon.

In that case, the villagers' hatred for the Three-Tailed Isobu would also be very deep, and they would definitely transfer that hatred to the Jinchūriki.

Even though Yagura Karatachi is the Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure, becoming a Jinchūriki still affects him.

While his prestige may not have plummeted, it has had a profound impact and could potentially shake Yagura's dominance.

But if Yagura Karatachi doesn't become a Jinchūriki, then Kirigakure doesn't have a suitable ninja...

Unable to help but frown, Yagura reached out and pinched his temples; his pleasant mood from just moments before instantly turned sour.

With the three hidden villages uniting, Kirigakure will inevitably become Konoha's first target.

Yagura Karatachi has already received benefits from the two major hidden villages, and he is unlikely to back down unless he can no longer withstand the pressure.

However, this would put unprecedented pressure on the Hidden Mist Village's ninja forces. Without the tailed beasts, the Hidden Mist Village's frontline troops would likely collapse at the first sign of trouble!

"We still need to hurry up and find a suitable ninja to become the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, Isobu, otherwise the upcoming war..."

"Even if they are from outside the village, it would be good if they could just temporarily serve as a vessel for the Three-Tailed Isobu..."

"Sigh... Oh well, let's just take it one step at a time."

Yagura was in a state of confusion. After thinking for a while, he stood up and said, "Rest is over. Let's continue on our way!"

However, after Yagura and the others left, the White Zetsu clone formed from the special spores smiled, then merged into the earth and disappeared.

Chapter 180: The timeline seems to be self-correcting. (30,000 words in total, please subscribe!)

Madara Uchiha's secret base.

"That's all for today. Go practice in that room over there."

Madara Uchiha laboriously raised his arm and pointed to the secret room located on the left front side.

"Ah."

After spending some time together, Obito Uchiha developed a very good impression of Madara Uchiha and even began to admire him.

Madara Uchiha was, after all, the most accomplished member of the Uchiha clan in the past year, whose knowledge and strength surpassed that of an entire era.

If Madara Uchiha couldn't even win over and obey Obito Uchiha's commands, he might as well have died sooner.

After Obito Uchiha left, the White Zetsu clone formed from special spores emerged from the earth.

"Ban, I've uncovered some very interesting information."

"tell me the story."

"It's about the Three-Tailed Isobu." The White Zetsu clone showed a smug look on its face, grinning as it revealed two rows of sharp teeth.

"Oh? You've finally done something to make me happy." Madara Uchiha was equally pleased. "Tell me more about it."

"That's right. I was gathering intelligence on the Three Kage Summit at the time. After the meeting ended, I left with Yagura Karatachi."

"Just when I thought I had no useful information and was about to leave, Yagura Karatachi received a message from Kirigakure."

"Such a large village as Kirigakure, yet it can't find a single ninja who can serve as a Jinchūriki!"

"Judging from Yagura's appearance, he doesn't want to become the jinchūriki of the Three-Tails Isobu. Instead, he wants to find a suitable person from outside the village who is easy to control, to temporarily serve as the vessel for the Three-Tails Isobu."

"I see..."

Madara Uchiha nodded, then closed his eyes for a moment to think before opening them again. "The news is good, but it doesn't seem to be of much use to me..."

"Ban, you're no match for me in this respect, haha!"

The white zeolite clone laughed heartily, "I remember you planned to make Obito Uchiha lose his beloved, and then use that power to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, right?"

"Hmm?!" Madara Uchiha's eyes narrowed, a sudden thought flashing through his mind. "You mean..."

“Rather than letting Nohara Rin die on the battlefield, it’s better to make him a temporary vessel for the Three-Tails Isobu.” White Zetsu smiled sinisterly. “Whether it’s a Jinchuriki or a temporary vessel for a Tailed Beast, their only purpose is to be sent to the battlefield.”

"After Kirigakure allied with Sunagakure and Iwagakure, Kirigakure took on the role of drawing Konoha's firepower, so the pressure they faced was unimaginable."

"Therefore, it is inevitable that the Mitsuo Isobu will be thrown onto the battlefield..."

White Zetsu stretched out his two hands and gestured what he wanted to express, which Madara Uchiha understood instantly.

"It's not perfect, but it's still a very good plan." Madara Uchiha suddenly felt a bit of admiration for White Zetsu. He hadn't expected that White Zetsu, with his simple mind, could be so reliable.

“But you still need to put in another effort.” Madara Uchiha praised her before returning to normal. “To get Rin Nohara involved in this, we’ll need the cooperation of Kirigakure.”

"I need you to capture a Kirigakure ninja on the battlefield, and this ninja should ideally be an intelligence ninja from Kirigakure."

"No problem, I have a solution."

"Yes, just capture it and bring it here." Madara Uchiha glanced at the White Zetsu clone. "Let's go now."

"Hey! I just got back!" White Zetsu clone pouted.
