Just when everyone was shocked that Matt Dai could perfect the Eight Gate Dungeon of the Second Hokage, Maruhoshi Kosuke said:
"Hokage-sama, I think it would be a pity for a talent like Matt Dai to be unable to be promoted because he only knows Taijutsu.
Is it possible to give ninjas like this who specialize in a certain ability a path to promotion?
Otherwise, if Nobuhiko hadn't invited Matt Dai to perform a B-level mission together this time.
Maybe he will only perform some garbage cleaning and weeding tasks throughout his life.
There was no chance to show the power of Eight Gate Dunjia. "
The Third Hokage nodded and said: "Actually, if you don't tell me, I also have this idea.
Previously, Metkai, the son of Metdai, showed amazing talent in physical arts.
The year before last, he graduated early at the age of eight, and the Ninja School also submitted a report to me. "
With that said, the Third Hokage changed the topic.
"Compared to this matter, we got a not so good information from the mind of Suna Ninja Murakami.
The Third Kazekage has disappeared, and Suna Ninja Village has confirmed his death. "
As soon as the Third Hokage finished speaking, the expressions of the jounin on the scene suddenly changed.
"What!? The Third Kazekage is missing?"
"How can this be?"
"Who can kill the Third Kazekage without anyone noticing?"
The disappearance of a village's shadow is a big deal.
Moreover, the third Kazekage, who was called the strongest Kazekage in the history of Sand Ninja Village, would actually disappear?
Who on earth could be so powerful and able to kill the third Kazekage in the Kingdom of Wind without being noticed.
"Shunsuke." The Third Hokage looked at Shunsuke Yamanaka, the director of the Torture Department and Intelligence Department, "Please explain."
"Yes!" Shunsuke Yamanaka stood up and said, "Based on the memories we obtained from the minds of the jounin of Suna Ninja Village, and the situation described by Fousuke-kun.
After the Third Kazekage was judged dead in Sand Ninja Village, martial law has been put into place throughout the village.
At the same time, starting this month, a comprehensive sweep of the border has been carried out.
Kill all the ninjas who pass through the border, especially... the Konoha ninjas!
Because the senior officials of Sand Ninja Village believed that it was the ninjas of Konoha who killed the Third Kazekage. "
Everyone was shocked when they heard Yamanaka Shunsuke's explanation.
In today's ninja world, there are only a handful of ninjas who can kill the Third Kazekage. Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, counts as one, and Ai, the Third Raikage of Kumogakure, counts as one.
Kirigakure's Third Mizukage's strength is not particularly outstanding, and he should not be a match for the Third Mizukage.
As for Konoha, at least two people have the strength to single-handedly kill the Third Kazekage.
The Third Hokage, and White Fang.
Compared to Iwagakure Village, which has an alliance with Sand Ninja Village, Konoha is obviously more suspicious, and Konoha is the strongest.
In addition, the son and daughter-in-law of Chiyo, the Kazekage advisor of the Sand Ninja Village, led an army to attack Konoha at the end of World War II. They were killed by the White Fang when they first entered the Land of Fire.
With this hatred, it is not difficult to understand that after the disappearance of the Third Kazekage, the Sand Ninja Village would target Konoha.
"Does the Sand Ninja Village want to start a war with Konoha?!"
This thought couldn't help but appear in everyone's mind.
It’s not impossible!
After the Second Ninja War, Konoha recovered its strength in just a few years.
It relies on a strong foundation and a complete talent selection system.
The population of Konoha Village is the largest among the five major ninja villages, and the strongest ninja clans during the Warring States Period were all in Konoha.
Since the Second Hokage founded the Ninja School, Konoha has established a system of mentoring Jonin, allowing more outstanding Genin to grow up rapidly under the leadership of Jonin.
At the same time, as the winner of the Ninja World War, Konoha has received a large number of commissions from the Fire Country, as well as commissions from other countries.
Among them, the daimyo of the Wind Country handed over nearly half of the tasks in the country to Konoha.
Against the Suna Ninja Village alone, Konoha could win completely.
But once a ninja war breaks out, Konoha will never face a ninja village.
Looking around at the Jonin with different expressions, the Third Hokage placed two scrolls, one yellow and one blue, on the table and said solemnly:
"This is the letter sent by the Third Raikage the day before yesterday. It states that after the Great Ninja War, in order not to repeat the same mistakes, we want to strengthen friendly exchanges with Konoha.
Therefore, this year's Chuunin Examination is planned to be held jointly with Konoha and will be held in Konoha.
The key is that Kirigakure also sent a letter in the morning!
The Third Mizukage expressed that he would also send ninjas to participate in Konoha's Chunin Examination this year. "
In fact, what worried the Third Hokage the most was Orochimaru, who had just recently gone to Kumogakure Village to perform a secret mission.
During the Second Ninja War, Kumogakure's previous generation, the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuribu Rubi, died due to the Eight-Tails rampage, which was caused by Orochimaru.
Orochimaru took advantage of Burubi's weak will and sneaked into Kumogakure Village, using special genjutsu pills to paralyze his whole body and unable to move. Then he lifted the iron armor seal, forcing the Eight-Tails and Burubi to separate, and the Eight-Tails also ran away invisibly. , resulting in the death of eight elite jonin in Kumogakure and heavy losses.
This time, Orochimaru sneaked into Kumogakure and prepared to repeat his old tricks, but was severely injured by the Third Raikage. Now he is recovering from his injuries in secret. Only a few of their senior officials know about this matter.
At this time, the Third Raikage said that he wanted to be friends with Konoha. He obviously wanted to test the severity of Orochimaru's injuries so that he could judge the timing of taking action.
After all, the lack of top combat power has a great impact on the outcome of local battlefields.
As soon as Sandai finished speaking, Danzo immediately said:
"The spies I planted in Iwagakure Village have also received information. Ohnoki has been in secret contact with Hanzo recently and has evil intentions against Konoha."
Kumogakure and Kirigakure, Iwagakure and Amegakure, and the Sand Ninja Village...
Could it be that this time Konoha will fall into siege by the four major ninja villages? !
There is also Hanzo who is called a demigod!
Most of the people present had participated in the Great Ninja War, and they knew the cruelty of war.
Many small and medium-sized ninja clans were exterminated directly after experiencing two ninja wars.
For example, Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha who is now a powerful figure in the ninja world, is the leader of the Hatake clan.
Although the Hatake clan is not a large clan, before the First Ninja War, it was a medium-sized ninja clan with more than two hundred people.
As a result, after the two wars, only Sakumo and Kakashi and his son were left in the Hatake clan, and everyone else was dead.
The other ninjas weren't much better.
Only the two powerful families of Hinata and Uchiha remain standing. The two clans have nearly a hundred jounin in total, which is more than one-sixth of the total number of jounin in Konoha.
As for the Senju clan, after the Second Hokage disbanded the Senju clan, the Senju clan had abandoned the surname Senju and completely integrated into Konoha.
But even so, there were dozens of jounin from the original Senju clan.
In addition, even the medium-sized ninja clans such as Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Gekko, Inuzuka, and Aburame cannot bear the losses of successive battles.
The Second Ninja War has only ended a few years ago, will the Third War start again?
This news is really terrible!
"It seems that Kumogakure and Kirigakure are planning to explore the internal reality of Konoha under the pretext of participating in the Joint Chuunin Examination, and want to find out whether the village has regained its strength." Koharu's face darkened slightly as he went to bed.
Another Hokage advisor, Mito Kadoen, said: "No matter what, let's call back Sakumo, Jiraiya, and Tsunade first!"
The Jonin in the field was filled with confidence when he heard the name Mito Kadoyan read out.
Although it may be difficult for Konoha to win with the four major ninja villages plus the Amegakure Village, with the leadership of these top ninjas, they are not without the ability to fight.
What's more, each village has long-standing grievances between them. Even if they unite to deal with Konoha, they can't really work together.
Otherwise, Konoha would not have won the previous two battles so easily.
"Don't worry." The Third Hokage waved his hand, "Sakumo's mission of protecting the daimyo is not over yet. We will call him back when necessary.
As for Tsunade, contact has been cut off, but if the situation really comes to a critical moment, she should come back.
Let's call Jiraiya back first, Minato..."
Namikaze Minato said respectfully: "Yes, Thirdai-sama, I can use the communication frog to contact Jiraiya-sensei at any time."
"As for Amegakure..." Sandai looked at Danzo beside him.
Others say that the leader of Yuyin Village, Sanshouyu Hanzo, is a big trouble.
In a real fight, Sandai is not afraid of Sansho Hanzo, but the body of his psychic beast Sansho contains highly toxic substances, making it impossible for him to engage in close combat.
The third generation is best at close combat with psychic monkey demons.
And among the five escape techniques of the three generations, he is good at using fire escape. However, due to the terrain of Yuyin Village, it rains all year round, and the use of fire escape there will be greatly weakened.
In general, it is difficult for any ninja in Konoha to defeat Hanzo in a one-on-one battle.
Even White Fang, whose strength was still on the rise, couldn't do it because he couldn't get close.
Nowadays, Tsunade is unable to develop a drug that can completely immunize Sanshou fish toxin. Coupled with the deaths of Kato Dan and Naoki, Tsunade has been away from the village for several years, and recently there has been no news at all.
Danzo nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "I will find a way over Amegakure's side.
Although Hanzo is called a demigod, the older he gets, the less courageous he becomes!
He would not go all out to deal with Konoha with Iwagakure.
He must wait and see the battle situation first.
As long as Konoha is not in a state of total decline, he will test it repeatedly before daring to take action. "
"Danzo, I'll leave it to you." The Third Hokage nodded.
Looking at Danzo with cold eyes, everyone knew that the Darkness of the Shinobi World was causing trouble again.
"If other villages are really planning to join forces to deal with Konoha, they will definitely take this opportunity to find out Konoha's true and false situation.
Why don't we wait and see, maybe Sunagakure and Iwagakure will also propose to hold a joint chunin exam with Konoha.
We can even take the initiative to invite them to take part in the Chunin Exam.
It shows that we in Konoha are not afraid of their four-village alliance.
This can also make them wary! "
At this time, Nara Shikaku, known as Konoha's think tank, suggested.
Nara Shikaku's proposal quickly gained support from most jounin.
Rather than being secretive, it is better to invite others directly to show Konoha's fearless attitude, which will also have the opportunity to divide the already weak alliances of other villages.
Danzo suddenly said: "In that case, it is better to invest all the outstanding genin in the village in recent years.
Since they want to test, they will kill all their genin who are participating in the chuunin exams.
Among the new generation of genin, Nobuhiko Hinata and Kakashi Hatake are very good candidates. "
"Although Kakashi is excellent, the other two genin in Class 7 are both newcomers. I think it is too early for them to take the chunin selection exam." Namikaze Minato raised objections.
Danzo said nonchalantly: "Then let Kakashi Hatake take part in the Chunin Selection Examination alone, and Nobuhiko Hyuga can also go alone."
At this time, other jounin were also thinking about the feasibility of Danzo's suggestion.
The meeting lasted until the afternoon.
