Half a month after the Red Sand Scorpion succeeded the Kazekage, Konoha finally eliminated most of the puppets in the Land of Fire after a long time.

In the process of clearing out tens of millions of puppet troops, the number of Konoha ninja casualties reached the sum of the casualties suffered in battles with other ninja villages.

The threats in the Land of Fire have been eliminated, and the three ninja wars have come to an end.

Due to his outstanding performance in a series of battles such as the Battle of Kanna-kun Bridge, especially the important role he played in the subsequent operation to clear out the puppet troops, the highly popular Namikaze Minato became known as the Yellow Flash.

Ye Yondaime Hokage.

Namikaze Minato is Konoha's first commoner Kage. If the original Konoha chose a commoner Kage partly out of considerations of balancing the conflicts among the families, then now, because of the ten ninja schools expanded by Konoha,

A large number of civilian ninjas were trained, and these civilian ninjas accounted for the majority of Konoha ninjas.

These civilian-born ninjas became Namikaze Minato's strongest supporters. Namikaze Minato becoming a Kage was the most suitable choice for Konoha based on various considerations.

An official letter from Konoha arrived in Iwagakure, and Uehara felt a headache again.

"Oh my God, the Daimyo of the Fire Country invited me to attend the succession ceremony of the Fourth Hokage."

Ye Cang was particularly curious, "What a surprise, Lord Tsuchikage, why does Konoha even invite you?"

The Red Sand Scorpion and the Tsuchikage have been friends for a long time. It is not difficult to understand that the Kazekage invites friends to participate in the important moment of the Kazekage's succession. But Konoha?

"The Daimyo of the Fire Country, Hyuga Nana, he is my best friend." Uehara answered Ye Cang's doubts with a smile.

"Since that guy invited me, I must go."

Uehara hurriedly packed up and rushed to the Land of Fire while waiting for Ye Cang.

"Asshole Uehara, how come you didn't die in the war?" Hinata said bitterly as he came to greet Uehara.

"Hinata-san, you bastard is not dead yet. How could I, who is more powerful than you, die?"

Friends met, and then they viciously insulted each other, and then they laughed and hugged each other tightly.

Uehara congratulated Hinata that his father-in-law finally died, and that Hinata became a daimyo as he wished. Hinata punched Uehara in anger, but at the same time he did not forget to congratulate Uehara for becoming a Tsuchikage.

The once childish friends have now become big shots in the ninja world.

Uehara did not go to the ceremony for Namikaze Minato to succeed the Kage. After the war, it would be more meaningful to see if Hinata Mina was dead.

Uehara only stayed in the Land of Fire for one day, and the gift was brought to Konoha by Hinata and given to Namikaze Minato.

When Uehara was still a boy, the most common thing he heard was that the uncles in the village called him kid. But suddenly, the Suna ninja Kumo ninja, Konoha, and the new Kage successors were all Uehara's descendants, a group of extremely young guys.

.

In front of the three ninja villagers whose average age was barely 20 years old, Uehara suddenly became an uncle.

——

As soon as the ceremony for Namikaze Minato to succeed the Kage ended, he suddenly disappeared from Konoha, and no one knew where he went.

A few days later, Minato appeared in the desert of the Kingdom of Wind, struggling to move forward in a sandstorm.

Being blocked by a sandstorm again, Minato licked his chapped lips and decided to take a risk and break into the deeper hinterland of the Kingdom of Wind.

The terrible puppet technique mastered by the Sand Ninja created big trouble for the Kingdom of Fire. Minato sneaked into the Kingdom of Wind alone to find out the secrets of the Sand Ninja. This was the most important thing he needed to accomplish after succeeding as the Fourth Hokage.

The Kingdom of Wind is vast, and it is almost an impossible task for one person to find very secret clues in the uninhabited desert.

A month has passed and Minato still has no clue. Fortunately, he brought enough supplies before leaving for the Wind Country.

When they stopped to rest, a small scorpion emerged from under the sand and crawled towards Minato's feet, looking for the scent of a stranger. One of Minato's shurikens accurately nailed the scorpion into the sand.

Minato picked up the kunai and looked at it. The scorpion, which was almost split in half by the kunai, was still struggling to die.

(It’s rare to see living things around here.) Minato frowned. The area was not exactly a real desert of death. Some withered and yellow desert plants could be seen vaguely dotted there. Logically speaking, there should be living things in this environment.

but……

Minato suddenly remembered something. When the village was fighting against the puppets of the Suna Ninja, they captured some of the puppets for research. As a result of the research, the village believed that the Suna Ninja sealed the souls of animals and a huge amount of chakra inside the puppets.

, thus giving the puppet the will to fight independently.

All the fragmented information was completely connected at once. Minato's eyes gradually became firm. Since the enemy uses the soul of animals as a medium to strengthen the puppet, then, taking the enemy's activity trajectory as the radius, the desert with fewer creatures will be closer to the desert.

The secret of tolerance.

Collecting intelligence was an arduous process, and it took nearly a month for Minato to explore the biological inventory in a large area nearby. Finally, after collecting a large amount of data, Minato drew a small circle on the map of the Kingdom of Winds with a pen.

.

(The biological stock begins to radiate outward from this area, and the stock is gradually decreasing. The secret of the sand ninja lies within this area.)

Minato gathered up the map, drank the last bit of water, and rushed towards the locked area.

One day later, Minato arrived at the center of the area. A desolate architectural ruin that had existed for some time shocked Namikaze Minato slightly.

No matter how much time has passed, it can still be seen from the ruins that there was once an extremely magnificent city here.

Minato knelt down on one knee and pressed his fingers into the sand. He closed his eyes and silently sensed the surrounding situation. Sure enough, there was a large amount of chakra reaction underground. It seemed that this was the destination.

Minato walked towards the Loulan ruins. With every step he took, his figure became fainter. After a few steps, his figure was completely invisible.

The core of the Loulan ruins is the Lost Tower located at the core of the Dragon Vein. Countless underground pipes climb up from the bottom of the tower and extend into the layered spaces of the tower. Those unmanned factories drive the factory continuously.

of producing puppet bodies.

In the dark, uninhabited corner, the figure of Namikaze Minato suddenly appeared. (It seems that this is the secret base where the Suna Ninja produces the puppet army.)

One puppet after another was taking shape on the production line. Within a minute of hiding here, Minato saw hundreds of puppets being assembled.

With such a terrifying production speed, it's no wonder that Konoha faces an almost endless legion of puppets.

At the highest level of the Lost Tower, the Red Sand Scorpion was studying the chakra of the Dragon Vein. Suddenly he frowned, "The Red Secret Technique - the Puppet Substitute Technique!"

boom!

Scorpion's puppet was smashed to pieces under the Rasengan, and the smoke from the puppet's explosion made Minato suddenly feel something bad, "Blinking Technique!"

Minato was alert and avoided the poisonous mist spread after the explosion.

"The Yondaime Hokage?"

"Your Majesty Kazekage?"

Minato and Scorpion spoke at the same time, both surprised that the other was here.
