Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

"It seems that the Third Hokage and Jiraiya have figured it out."

Lin Yi looked at the two people whose faces were already somewhat shocked, and spoke with a smile.

"There's one last step."

"besides?!"

The third-generation pipe was almost coming out.

"I told you, you have to hurt me!"

The Sharingan appeared in Lin Yi's eyes, spinning.

"Finally, naturally, the 'defeated army' that had been chased by Kumogakure and Iwagakure got reinforcements."

Finally, our main force will end this war.

After listening to Lin Yi's final explanation.

The third generation was stunned.

Through the other person's scarlet eyes, for some reason, he seemed to see the shadow of his teacher, Tobirama Senju.

Chapter 96 Chunin Exams?

The midday sun shone into the Hokage Building, warmly bathing the group.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi and Jiraiya's hearts were filled with only coldness.

Lin Yi also let out a slight breath.

Doesn't he know that doing this will cause widespread death and destruction?

of course I know.

He also wanted to end the war without any casualties, but he couldn't.

If you can't stop the war, then you can only try to prevent it from affecting the people you care about.

Selfish or cruel, it may be.

He doesn't care what others do, and he has no interest in being a world-saving hero.

As long as I can live a peaceful and stable life in this world with the people I care about, that's enough.

Fishing with friends, teasing the three little ones, including the three little ones from the Water Gate crew, who were on a paid trip under the guise of doing missions...

Anyone who tries to prevent themselves from living this kind of life.

Either kill him.

Either he kills you.

"I'll think about it some more..."

The third generation picked up the pipe from the ground, put it in his mouth, closed his eyes, and sighed.

He is no longer the decisive and resolute man he once was.

Was Lin Yi's plan brilliant?

Undoubtedly excellent, so excellent that even if Hiruzen Sarutobi suspected Shikaku wanted to die, he couldn't have come up with such a scheme.

This is not to say that Shikaku is less intelligent than Lin Yi; it's just that ninjas have never used such... incomprehensible methods before.

In short, Lin Yi was manipulating not just intelligence, but also human nature.

He had a clear understanding of what the three major powers lacked, what they feared, and what they wanted.

Shikaku's strength lies in his ordinary troop deployment and battle strategy, which is quite different from the other two.

but!

If the plan goes awry...

What if we're exposed?

What if Yunyin didn't go?

What if Iwagakure doesn't go?

What should we do if Sunagakure can't take the blame?

It's all problems.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi had made one wrong move, allowing the three great ninja villages to enter the Land of Fire, he would have become a sinner for Konoha forever.

"I hope you won't reveal this to Jiraiya."

“I understand, Third Generation.”

Jiraiya never called him "old man" in a joking manner; instead, he answered seriously.

This is no time for jokes.

"Lin Yi, Jiraiya, you two should go and rest first..."

Lin Yi shrugged indifferently, then turned and left the office with Jiraiya.

In the end, only one sentence remained.

"Third Generation, time waits for no one."

Watching the two figures leave.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked down at the urgent battle reports.

He closed his eyes in distress.

"Time is running out..."

Teacher White Fang is still on the battlefield in the Land of Grass.

Minato was still there with the three members of Minato Squad on a mission.

With teachers Sakumo Hatake and Minato present, Lin Yi wasn't too worried about their safety.

Unable to find anyone he knew, Lin Yi first went to Konoha Hospital to see his adopted older sister, Tsunade.

Tsunade was naturally unaware that Jiraiya and Lin Yi had stayed behind.

The Third Hokage didn't dare tell her right away; if he had, Tsunade would probably have rushed to the Land of Hot Springs in a flash.

Lin Yi didn't talk much about his own affairs, but instead inquired about Tsunade's current situation and said that he would apply to the Third Hokage to accelerate medical reform.

Initially, Lin Yi's primary intention was indeed to exploit Tsunade.

But as Lin Yi got to know Tsunade better, he began to acknowledge her as his older sister.

On the surface, the Third Hokage appears to have committed numerous evil deeds and led his three children astray.

However, once you truly understand them, you'll realize that both Tsunade and Jiraiya possess an indelible golden spirit.

As for Orochimaru, Lin Yi still doesn't know much about him and has hardly ever had any contact with him.

After catching up with Tsunade and asking her about the Yin-Yang Seal, Lin Yi took his leave.

He also needs to check on the condition of the three little ones.

Soon, he found three familiar figures at the third training ground.

Is the third training ground now practically becoming the exclusive training ground for their class and the Water Gate class?

Lin Yi mentally complained, then walked towards the three little ones.

Before they even uttered a sound, the three little ones' voices were already filled with surprise.

"Teacher Lin Yi!"

Matt Kay burst into tears instantly.

Shisui and Hong were also somewhat excited.

They thought something had happened to Lin Yi.

Although Lin Yi sometimes makes them worry, this time the opponent is just too strong.

After calming the three children down, Lin Yi began to ask them about the specific details of how they called for reinforcements.

Red Horse, filled with righteous indignation, began to lodge a protest.

According to her, after they brought back reinforcements, the boy named Danzo not only didn't help, but also forcibly took away Shikaku, who wanted to go back and find out what was going on.

Might Guy, who was standing nearby, followed along.

"That's it!"

Shisui remained silent with a gloomy expression.

Danzo, he remembered.

"By the way, teacher, it seems the village is going to hold the Chunin Exams."

Lin Yi was taken aback for a moment, then realized what he meant.

There aren't enough ninjas.

Among the ninjas, genin (lower-ranking ninjas) accounted for almost 80%.

It can be said that as long as you have even a little bit of ninja talent, you can basically become a genin after six years of training.

However, when war comes, there are often no six years left; most students graduate in four years.

Six years is the upper limit, not the standard.

However, the number of Chunin is significantly less compared to Genin.

There are theoretical exams, practical battles, and team drills.

It's safe to say that out of ten genin, only one becomes a chunin.

Once you reach the Chunin level, you can lead at least a squad of three Genin (cannon fodder).

The village is doing this because the current squads are insufficient.

After all, a team of four genin (lower-ranking ninja) will inevitably create a situation where everyone is a genin, so why should I listen to you?

"What do you mean?"
