Reincarnated as Naruto, Garp template

Not to mention Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin, even Kazan, the Demon God of Konoha, would have difficulty dealing with him.

The mission has failed; continuing will only lead to certain death.

Jiraiya led his troops in pursuit. No one could be sure whether the Sand Village had obtained any important intelligence. It would be best to leave everyone behind.

Kazan unleashed his full Observation Haki, relentlessly attacking without missing a single target.

The invincible iron fist and the godlike figure were deeply imprinted in the hearts of the remaining Sand Ninja.

As the sun gradually set, its afterglow illuminated the battlefield, where bodies and blood were everywhere.

Kazan's white suit was mostly stained red with the blood of his enemies.

"Wouldn't it be better to change to black next time? White is too conspicuous."

He tore off his shirt and sat down wherever he could find a spot.

That white suit is handsome, but on the battlefield, it's as conspicuous as a light bulb.

"Inuzuka, you lead your men to continue the pursuit and try to keep them all here."

The battle is over.

Most of the Sand Ninja troops were left here, but a very small number escaped.

Jiraiya ordered his troops to continue pursuing the enemy, while the rest stayed behind to rest and clean up the battlefield.

"how do you feel?"

Jiraiya, having made his arrangements, unceremoniously plopped down next to Kazan.

"It's not good at all; it's much worse than I imagined."

This was only a battle involving a hundred people; it's unimaginable how spectacular a battle involving ten thousand people would be.

"Were our casualties high?"

"Some people died and some were injured; the exact number will only be known after the statistics are compiled."

Jiraiya patted him on the shoulder.

"You've done a great service this time. I'll speak to the Third Hokage to recommend you for promotion. You might be promoted to Jonin soon."

"By the way, go chat with the other comrades later. They're all my fellow soldiers."

"Forget it. If we get too close to them and they suddenly get killed one day, I'll be heartbroken."

Kazan shook his head in refusal.

It's good that we're not close; otherwise, if someone died, I'd be grieving for a while.

"And what about me? Would you be sad if I died?"

"Of course, I'm still waiting for you to take me to continue gathering material. You'd better try your best to survive."

Jiraiya opened his mouth and then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, great! Next time we go back to the village, I'll take you to the best women's bathhouse for research. It's a secret that only I know."

A while later.

A Konoha ninja came over to report.

"Lord Jiraiya, the battlefield has been cleaned up. One hundred and one Sand Ninja were killed, and our side suffered twenty-five dead, twenty seriously wounded, and fifty lightly wounded."

Almost everyone was injured.

"Preserve the bodies of your fallen comrades and send them back to Konoha for burial."

War inevitably results in death; it is unavoidable.

All they could do was bring these people's bodies back to their families in their hometowns.

Jiraiya sighed, stood up, and gave the order.

"Report what happened here to the village. The alliance between Konoha and Sunagakure is null and void!"

"Yes!"

The ninja arranged everything, summoned an eagle, and sent the intelligence back to the village.

night.

Having just experienced a major battle, Kazan did not rest and continued to create shadow clones to train.

Uchiha Jō found him again.

"Is this how monsters cultivate? They can continue cultivating right after coming off the battlefield."

He looked like he had just taken a shower; his hair was still wet, and his body was wrapped in bandages—all injuries he had sustained that day.

In addition, his Sharingan has evolved from one tomoe to two tomoe.

"Your conjunctivitis is getting worse."

"......"

Uchiha Jō was speechless with anger, his liver aching from rage.

"I'll say it one last time, this is the Sharingan, the Uchiha's bloodline limit, not a red-eye disease!"

If we're talking about conjunctivitis, then Yuhi Koi is the real deal!

"No means no, why are you yelling so loudly?" Kazan picked at his ear; there was a large piece of earwax. "It shook my earwax out."

Uchiha Jō took a deep breath, unable to reconcile the person from earlier that day with the brash and unruly man in front of him.

However, his injuries told him that everything that happened during the day was real.

Beneath Kazan's unreliable exterior lies a demonic spirit.

Finally, Uchiha Jō revealed his purpose, "Thank you for your help during the day."

He came here to express his gratitude.

Chapter 70 Fastest Promotion Speed

Day two.

The conference room on the top floor of the Hokage Building.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, and other high-ranking officials of Konoha gathered together.

During this extraordinary period, they hold a meeting almost every day.

Is the information accurate?

"Yes, the ANBU ninja has been selected, and the Sand Village has chosen the Fourth Kazekage, who will be Rasa."

A village of ninja cannot be without a leader, especially in such extraordinary times.

"Rasa, the bloodline limit of Magnet Release: Gold Sand?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the Anbu intelligence report, lost in thought.

"Indeed, the Fourth Kazekage has a special physique, which allows him to convert highly condensed chakra into magnetic force to control underground gold dust."

"Furthermore, according to our spies, the Fourth Kazekage seems to have placed great importance on the research of Jinchuriki since taking office."

"Do they intend to follow the example of Kumogakure and deploy the Tailed Beasts on the battlefield?"

Mitokado Yan frowned deeply.

This is a chain reaction. The Hidden Cloud Village produced a perfect Jinchuriki, and other ninja villages with Tailed Beasts did not want to fall behind, so they had no choice but to follow suit.

Even Danzo, in the later stages of the story, repeatedly spoke out about making the Nine-Tails a standard weapon of Konoha.

"This is not good news, Sarutobi. Once the Sand Village also succeeds in its research and obtains the perfect Jinchuriki..."

The destructive power of the tailed beasts is too astonishing, and Konoha has no choice but to take it seriously.

"Moreover, Rasa seems to have a lot of grievances against our Konoha, believing that we assassinated the Third Kazekage."

“He doesn’t think we assassinated the Kazekage; the Sand Village wants our land and resources.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes gleamed with wisdom.

Living in the wind kingdom of the barren desert, they have been trying to leave the desert for many years.

The land of the Land of Fire has been coveted by the Sand Village for many years.

"Rasa wants to use this incident to incite the Sand Village's hatred towards Konoha."

Luo Sha had only recently taken office, and his position was not yet secure. But war required the unity of the entire village.

By pinning the blame for the assassination attempt on the Third Kazekage on Konoha, they killed two birds with one stone.

"But in any case, we cannot sit idly by and wait to die."

"Knock knock knock..."

At that moment, there was a knock on the conference room door, and the head of the intelligence department, who had been granted permission, walked in.

"Lord Hokage, this is a battle report from the advance team."

Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly took it, and the first thing he saw made his eyes darken.

The Sand Village has already taken action, sending troops into the Land of Fire's territory.

Keep reading.

"101 enemy soldiers were killed, and a few Sand Ninja escaped. We are pursuing them."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was relieved to see this.

Then came a detailed battle report, including that Kazan killed the enemy commander and 38 enemy soldiers.

Upon seeing this, even the Hokage himself showed no expression.

He was shocked and wondered if Jiraiya had written his name as Kazan.

"What's wrong, Sarutobi? Did something happen to the advance team?"

"No surprises, you can see for yourselves."

Hiruzen Sarutobi relayed the information.

Below, the clan leaders of the Mitokado Homura, Hyuga, Uchiha, Nara, and other ninja clans remained silent.
