Fortunately...if I join forces with Bi, we will be able to compete with each other in terms of speed.

Originally, he would never actually go to war with Konoha under this situation.

But this time, it was not Kumogakure that was going to deal with Konoha, but the entire aristocratic class, even the daimyo of the Land of Fire among them.

Konoha... If it takes a wrong step this time, it will probably be directly forgotten as the first ninja village.

……

Leaves, roots.

The messenger Adai from Kumogakure came alone to the location recorded on the note and entered the underground building through a special passage.

From the entrance, through the bridge, a masked root leads the way.

After a while, they met the main target of this mission... Danzo Shimura.

"It looks like you guys have figured it out."

Danzo began, "If a conflict had broken out on the first day, I would have been able to question the Hokage by now."

Adai bowed slightly and replied: "I really didn't expect the Fourth Hokage to be so strong. After all, Konoha is still licking its wounds."

Such a conversation is incompatible with the two people's positions.

Danzo of Konoha wanted to question the Hokage, but Adai of Kumogakure spoke clearly about the pain that Kumogakure suffered during the war.

Danzo snorted coldly, "That guy is leading the village to destruction! Such a Hokage will only bring disaster, and as a member of Konoha, I must bring the village back on track."

"And after the operation is over, I will become the Hokage. You, Kumogakure, must come to Konoha to continue the peace agreement that was not signed this time."

Adai nodded: "Lord Raikage has the same idea. After all, if you become the Hokage, the relationship between Konoha and Kumogakure will be eased."

Seeing that he agreed, Danzo waved his hand.

"Shh."

A root member knelt on one knee.

"Bring us the information on the main members of the Hyuga clan."

"clear."

……

The next day, the envoy from Kumogakure still showed no intention of leaving Konoha.

However, the peace agreement process that was originally scheduled for two days later was also canceled directly by the Hokage Building.

At the same time, the reason for the cancellation was clearly stated on the notice at the entrance of the Hokage Building in Konoha.

[In the Will of Fire, there is no reason to abandon your companions and pray for peace. ]

[Two nights ago, the Kumogakure messenger attacked the Hyuga clan, attempting to kidnap members of the Hyuga clan in order to seize the Byakugan.]

[During this period, the Kumogakure attackers were discovered by the Hyuga clan, and three of them were killed. ]

[Using this as an excuse, Kumogakure immediately went to the Hokage Building to ask for the head of the Hyuga clan...Hyuga Hiashi.]

[Their wolfish ambitions have been revealed, because the peace that comes from praying in this way is not real peace. ]

[The Hokage Building has decided to strengthen the defense of the border outposts from today, and the alliance with Kumogakure will also end here. ]

[Finally... the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze said: Dying in battle for peace and sacrificing one's village because of fear of war are not true peace. Today it is Hyuga, who will it be tomorrow? ]

……

In front of the wooden sign that informed them, many elite jonin of the jonin squad all frowned with fluctuating emotions.

"Is the war going to start again?"

"The opportunity for peace has been broken. The Hyuga clan should be more gentle. This way, we can discuss things later."

"If he's still alive, we can let the Yamanaka clan come and interrogate him. After the truth comes out, let's see what Kumogakure can say!"

"Ha ha……"

With a chuckle, someone in the crowd said sarcastically, "Sacrificing one person in exchange for peace, this choice is actually wrong, how stupid..."

Obito, who was wearing half a mask, looked over suddenly. Just as he was thinking about going over to deal with the other person, Kakashi grabbed his arm.

"meaningless."

"Ok?"

"The guy just now was in the same class as me, and I also attended the ideology class, but it was meaningless. He has not passed the ideology class assessment for several years."

Then, Kakashi squeezed into the crowd, stood in front of the wooden sign and said loudly: "We'll send one person away today, and another one tomorrow. Even the head of the Hyuga clan can give up. Who do you think will be the next one to be forced to sacrifice in exchange for peace?"

"After entering Konoha under the pretext of signing a peace agreement, they set their sights on the Hyuga clan! Kumogakure never thought about true peace from the beginning to the end."

After he finished speaking, most people in the jonin class started talking again.

"Between countries, interests are still interests."

"If even the head of the Hyuga family can be sent away, how are we going to carry out missions in the future? Are we going to give up as soon as we encounter a ninja from Kumogakure?"

"That's true... Once we hand over the head of the Hyuga family, it proves that we will be handed over as well. Then what should we do if we encounter other ninjas? Will we also be handed over after we take action?"

"Then fight! If they want war, give them war!"

"Those idiots from Kumogakure! Do they really think Konoha doesn't have the power to deal with them?!"

"Even the Kage died in the Third Ninja War, yet they still dare to be so arrogant!"

……

For a moment, another thought seen by Kakashi was placed directly in front of everyone.

Those lying under the memorial tablet are all heroes of Konoha, but no living person wants to lie there, and no living person is willing to be handed over to the enemy by the village.

On the outskirts of the crowd, Might Guy, who did not shout about youth at this time, looked a little heavy.

It has been more than four years since the history class was introduced in the Ninja School, but he has been attending classes with the teacher at the same time as the Hokage.

At this moment, he saw more things.

Soon, the elite ninjas of the Jonin team dispersed, and the villagers of Konoha and some Chunin and Genin were still gathered here, discussing the matter.

……

At the barbecue restaurant, Might Guy is flipping the pork belly.

After thinking for a while, he said, "The village has changed a lot recently. I didn't notice it at first, but only after I was told today did I roughly guess some things."

Obito, who was sitting opposite him, stretched out his chopsticks and placed the grilled meat on Nohara Rin's plate.

Then he snorted disdainfully.

"Whoever wants to target Konoha is a fool. Sensei's Haki... combined with the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Rasengan, is there anyone in Kumogakure who can stop it?"

Kakashi nodded and said, "Force is the basis of everything, but force alone will only plunge the world into chaos instead of ushering in peace."

"The envoy from the Daimyo Prefecture had a dispute with the teacher before, and they even parted on bad terms."

"Now the alliance with Kumogakure has stopped, and the other party is trying to get the Byakugan by this means. Until now, he still hasn't left the village."

"You are so confident... The enemy is not just Kumogakure."

At this time, Might Guy said: "Maybe... it's the Daimyo Prefecture."

Daming Prefecture?

Obito pursed his lips and said, "Those guys don't even have chakra, what can they use to start a war? Are they just throwing themselves at the enemy?"

Might Guy rubbed his forehead.

"I don't know. Maybe it's intuition, or maybe it corresponds to what the teacher said in the philosophy class I attended."

"But youth... should strive hard, right? We want to bring dawn to the world, but what stands in our way is the nobles as a group."

Nohara Rin wrapped the barbecue and handed it to Kakashi.

Then he looked at the three of them and said, "There is no place in the entire ninja world that is safer than Konoha, because the master is here and the teacher is here."

"As far as I know, the Land of Lightning has not been included in the scope of the spread by you, so it is possible that the Fourth Raikage is not aware of this."

"Also, the people of the Daimyo Prefecture do not have chakra, but their surnames allow them to have power inherited from generation to generation, which can play a lot of roles."

……

Late in the afternoon, figures passed silently through the underground of Konoha.

"After you took action, the Hyuga also became alert. The Anbu directly under the Fourth Hokage have also stepped up their vigilance recently."

"So is it okay to go through underground?"

"It is impossible for the Sensing Barrier Team in charge of the Yamanaka Clan to be working all the time. A short handover is an opportunity."

The Root Ninja continued to walk forward and said, "That's why I told you not to leave in a hurry. Once you leave, your chakra will be identified as an intruder."

Adai led the two teams of Kumogakure, thought for a moment and asked, "Who is the target this time?"

The Root ninja replied: "It's still Hyuga Hinata."

Adai was stunned: "Why is it still her? As the daughter of the patriarch, after the last failure, the other party will definitely increase her vigilance, right?"

Root Ninja: "Hyuga Hiashi not only has this one daughter, but the second daughter's talent is much higher than Hyuga Hinata's."

"For the Hyuga clan, according to custom, the main family does not need to attend ninja school. They only need to receive private education within the clan."

"But Hyuga Hinata's talent made Hyuga Hiashi dissatisfied, and he almost gave up on training."

"So if you want a member of the Hyuga clan, the best choice is still Hyuga Hinata."

The group soon arrived at another stronghold of the root.

After passing through the passage, the ninjas of Kumogakure all felt a little chilly.

As they passed by several rooms, the scenes inside made everyone in Yunyin feel nervous.

A person whose upper body turns into a tree!

His whole body was bloated like a giant inflated by air.

There are also those who no longer look like human beings, with their entire bodies covered with pustules...

"Goo."

Swallowing their saliva, they never thought that such a purgatory still existed under such a prosperous Konoha.

"arrive."

At this time, the Root Ninja stopped.

"This leads to the outside of the Hyuga clan territory, about 800 meters away. After school, Hyuga Hinata will pass by here no matter which direction she goes."

"After the operation, whether it succeeds or fails, you must immediately go to the 14th training ground, where our people will escort you away."

……

Chapter 381 Nine-Tailed Fox: I just want to see how you kill yourself

Since the Uchiha En attack, Danzo once again lost his position as advisor, and the Root under his charge also lost its law enforcement power in the village.

This also led to the Root disappearing from Konoha for more than four years, with most of them operating outside the village under the name of Anbu.

The Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze did not interfere, because the situation four years ago was very different from what it is now. More importantly, the advancement of the academy in the Land of Fire and the series of impacts caused by the introduction of history classes in ninja schools all required his constant attention.

At the same time, the roots cannot be confined.

Before the sparks spread, the turmoil in the village would lead to unpredictable results.

But even so, many things are still under control.

……

At the Ninja School, after school, students left the school gate one after another.

"Naruto, do you want to go to the training ground?"

"No, I have to take Hinata home."

Sasuke put his hands in his pockets, turned around and glanced at the girls who followed him out of the classroom.

"All of this will only affect your progress. Be careful not to be defeated by me in the next battle class."
