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

For some reason, Hiruzen Sarutobi deliberately ignored some possibilities and prejudicially placed all the blame on Minato Namikaze, who became the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

"Somebody come!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi shouted towards the door.

"Sandaime-sama Hokage!"

"Summon the high-ranking officials of Konoha and tell them I'm going to hold a very important meeting."

"Yes, Third Hokage."

After the Konoha civilian ninja left, Hiruzen Sarutobi returned to his chair.

He lit the pipe in his mouth, and the tobacco flickered with each puff of his lips, casting light on his face and making his complexion appear both bright and dark.

A turbulent undercurrent is quietly brewing...

Chapter 203 A brilliant and imaginative idea.

After defeating the combined forces of the Kaze and Tochi ninjas and cleaning up the battlefield using Earth Release ninjutsu, Akira Hatake and Minato Namikaze sat side by side on a small hill.

"Ming, are you feeling better?"

"almost……"

After a brief exchange, the master and apprentice fell silent again.

Although their killings inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy, more importantly, they left an indelible fear in the enemy's hearts.

Correspondingly, as killers, and those who slaughtered more than 5000 people at once, the torment they had to endure was no less than that of the ninjas from the Kaze and Tochi kingdoms.

Ninjas have strong mental resilience, but no matter how strong they are, they still need some time to adjust.

After all, everyone has a heart, and it's unrealistic to say that there's no stress response.

"teacher……"

Akira Hatake was the first to adjust his mindset. "We also need to hurry up and make some arrangements. I'm worried that the Kaze-Tou Ninja Alliance might make some unusual moves."

"Yes, the rest period was indeed long enough."

Minato Namikaze looked up at the setting sun and said, "However, I think the Allied Shinobi Forces probably won't attack again anytime soon."

"Too……"

Akira Hatake nodded in agreement, "They must be terrified, right?"

"I wouldn't say I'm scared out of my wits, but it will take some time to adjust my mindset."

Minato Namikaze smiled, then looked at Akira Hatake, "What are your thoughts on this war?"

Akira Hatake was taken aback by Minato Namikaze's sudden question, but he quickly figured out the reason.

Humanity's reverence for life stems from the fear of death.

War is a meat grinder that produces countless deaths, and Minato Namikaze, who was in the midst of it, could not help but feel it.

"That's a philosophical question, teacher."

Akira Hatake raised an eyebrow. "Isn't this putting me in a bit of a difficult position?"

“Is that so?” Minato Namikaze smiled. “I think you already know the answer I’m looking for.”

"I dare not offer an answer; these are just my humble opinions."

Akira Hatake cleared his throat. "I think war is an extension of politics, a trend of interests, and an inevitability of human nature."

"When those in power have a need, wars will break out for all sorts of reasons."

"When interests clash, war can break out."

"Human nature is simpler; the insatiable desire for more is the driving force behind people's wars, and the plundering never stops."

“So…” Akira Hatake looked at Minato Namikaze, “war is inevitable, and lasting peace only exists in our ideals.”

Minato Namikaze listened attentively, but Akira Hatake's words still made him frown deeply.

"Ming, is there truly no... lasting peace?"

"Have!"

Akira Hatake actually contradicted himself, which surprised Minato Namikaze, who gave him a rather unexpected look.

However, Akira Hatake's next sentence almost broke Minato Namikaze's defenses.

"But the prerequisite is that all of humanity must be extinct!"

"This……"

Minato Namikaze was stunned for a long time before punching Akira Hatake. "Is there really no other way to organize a war?"

“There is a way to reduce the frequency of wars…” Akira Hatake rubbed his shoulder. “Although it still cannot avoid war, it can at least maintain a period of peace for more than four generations.”

"Is this what you meant by unifying the entire ninja world?"

Minato Namikaze had his answer: "But achieving this goal... will be very, very difficult."

“Even if it’s difficult, someone has to do it, right?” Akira Hatake smiled. “And you, teacher, have that ability.”

"Me?" Minato Namikaze pointed to himself. "Don't be ridiculous. Even the First Hokage couldn't accomplish this, how could I possibly..."

"Teacher, please don't underestimate yourself."

Akira Hatake shook his head, looking up at the half-remaining sunset. "Hashirama Senju's strength is indeed far beyond yours and mine, but he was too idealistic and too lenient."

"But you are different."

"Although your strength is not comparable to Hashirama Senju, you are still in a class of your own in the current ninja world. Moreover, with my assistance, your potential will be very high."

"Moreover, your personality also determines that you are not an idealist."

"You can be ruthless, or you can use gentle methods to eliminate some deep-rooted hatred."

"Am I... really as good as you say?"

Faced with Akira Hatake's explanation, Minato Namikaze seemed somewhat surprised, as he himself was unaware that he possessed so many strengths.

"Of course!"

Akira Hatake nodded repeatedly, while adding in his mind, "I'm a man who's seen the finale, I know exactly what you're like."

"Alright." Minato Namikaze rubbed his nose. "I'll admit it for now..."

"But Ming, you have to keep your promise!"

"Me? Keep a promise?" Akira Hatake feigned ignorance. "I don't recall ever promising the teacher any conditions."

"Haha, it has to be you, Ming!" Minato Namikaze laughed heartily. "I remember you said you would assist me, so before I achieve my goal, you can't let your old habits resurface and become lazy again."

"Well...we'll see."

Akira Hatake didn't give Minato Namikaze a definite answer, saying, "Let's talk about everything after the war is over..."

Bringing the topic back to the war, Akira Hatake looked worried. "Teacher, I think the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind and Earth will invade the Land of Fire in a way that will make us very uncomfortable."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

Minato Namikaze naturally followed up on Akira Hatake's words, saying, "Let's see if your thoughts and mine have anything in common."

"Teacher, do you think the two of us can withstand the combined ninja forces of the Kaze and Tochi kingdoms?" Akira Hatake asked.

"If they launch an attack like this today, I think we can not only withstand it, but also severely damage them again!" Minato Namikaze answered decisively, his murderous intent also revealing itself in his words.

“They know that too,” Akira Hatake sighed. “If the Kazekage Rasa and the Tsuchikage Onoki weren’t stupid, they would have broken up their forces into smaller units.”

“We’re thinking the same thing…” Minato Namikaze also looked worried. “If that’s the case, the two of us won’t be able to stop the infiltration of the Kaze and Tochi ninjas.”

"That's true... but it's not like there's no way out."

"What method?!" Minato Namikaze suddenly looked at Akira Hatake, his eyes full of hope.

In Minato Namikaze's eyes, Akira Hatake's ideas were always whimsical and unpredictable, but these elusive ideas always managed to create satisfying results in strange ways.

"Flying Thunder God Barrier!"

"Flying Thunder God Barrier?" Minato Namikaze didn't immediately grasp the concept. "The Flying Thunder God Barrier doesn't seem to be very effective, does it?"

"A single Flying Thunder God Barrier is indeed not very effective, but what about a Flying Thunder God Barrier that stretches for hundreds of kilometers?"

"This……"

After hearing what Akira Hatake said, Minato Namikaze instantly understood Hatake's plan, but upon closer inspection, he felt it was impossible.

Constructing the Flying Thunder God Barrier, which stretches for hundreds of kilometers, requires an immense amount of chakra, not to mention the time it would take.

Even though Minato Namikaze is now the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, he wouldn't dare to guarantee that his chakra is enough to maintain the Flying Thunder God Barrier that stretches for hundreds of kilometers.

Seemingly sensing Minato Namikaze's worries, Akira Hatake then offered his explanation.

"Teacher, do you still remember the fan-shaped defensive circle set up by the Kumogakure ninja forces when we rescued the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Springs?"

"I remember!" Minato Namikaze's eyes lit up. "You mean..."

“We don’t actually need to make the Flying Thunder God Barriers connect end to end. We just need to set up a series of small fan-shaped Flying Thunder God Barriers to cover the Fire Country’s defense line for hundreds of kilometers.”

"Furthermore, when setting up the fan-shaped Flying Thunder God barrier, we can number them and ask some Hyuga clan ninjas to help with reconnaissance."

"As long as the infiltrated enemy appears within the range of the fan-shaped Flying Thunder God Barrier, the Hyuga clan ninjas will definitely be able to detect them immediately."

"Once discovered, we can quickly determine which barrier to activate based on the information from the Hyuga clan ninjas."

"In this way, we can accurately teleport the invading ninjas from the Kaze and Tochi kingdoms to the pre-arranged teleportation locations."

As he spoke, Akira Hatake made a gesture of slitting his throat, "When the time comes, no matter how many they come, we'll kill them all!"

Pop, pop, pop!

Minato Namikaze couldn't help but applaud, "Brilliant, what a brilliant strategy!"

"Hehe, it's just so-so..." Akira Hatake waved his hand with a smile, then looked serious again, "But it will take a long time to complete my plan."

"If it's just the two of us... we might be willing but unable to do it."

"Just ask someone for help..."

Minato Namikaze smiled and then formed a hand seal.
