In the Hyuga tribe's land, Nobuhiko's house, underground laboratory.
Nobuhiko once again entered the reincarnated eye chakra mode and used the seeking jade to release the one-sixth of Hinata Mio's missing soul and completely merge with it.
"Hmm~" Hinata Mio closed her eyes tightly, lying in Nobuhiko's arms, and let out a soft moan from the tip of her nose.
After the soul was completed, Hinata Mio's aura increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her chakra also increased a lot.
"How do you feel?!" Looking at the blushing Hinata Mio in his arms, Nobuhiko asked with a smile.
"Very good." Hinata Mio nodded and hugged Nobuhiko tightly with her backhand.
The two hugged each other, and after a long silence, they returned to the room.
Hyuga Mio suddenly said: "Tomorrow you will lead the team to the Country of Grass. Don't you need to rest early today?"
"Now is the best time to rest." Nobuhiko smiled and pushed Hinata Mio onto the couch, "Come on, kneel down and sit down."
"Isn't it... too early..." Hinata Mio's face turned red.
"What are you thinking about?" Nobuhiko lay on Hinata Mio's lap and looked at her with a half-smile.
Hinata Mio knew she had been deceived, so she punched Nobuhiko's chest angrily, stroked his forehead, and suddenly said:
"I heard that the leader of Amegakure Village is called a demigod by the ninja world. I wonder if you will go against him this time."
"Why, are you still worried that I am not his opponent?" Nobuhiko asked with a smile.
Hinata Mio shook her head, of course she knew Nobuhiko's strength.
"I'm just worried about Hanzo's psychic beast. The toxin of Sanshou Fish is extremely strong. Although your body has strong toxin resistance, you still have to be careful about this unknown toxin.
If the team you lead suffers heavy losses, I'm afraid the senior management will take the opportunity to launch an attack. " Hinata Mio said slowly.
Nobuhiko sat up and said: "You are right, indeed, I can resist Hanzo's poison, but others may not be able to resist it.
But if there is a real fight, I am not prepared to bring anyone else with me.
As for the high-level issues, don't worry, there is no reason for the weak to plot against the strong.
If the top management of Konoha still doesn't understand, then I will take Hinata and leave Konoha to build a village directly.
Sooner or later, he will annex Konoha and the other four villages and unify the shinobi world. "
Nobuhiko's expression was determined and his words contained strong confidence, which made Hinata Mio look happy.
****
Early the next morning, Nobuhiko led a hundred-man brigade to the northwest border to deal with the Yuyin Village.
The idea of the top management is very simple. Now Yuyin Village has only entered the Kingdom of Grass and has not yet invaded the border of the Kingdom of Fire, so it cannot directly fight against Yuyin Village.
There are twenty jounin in the hundred-man brigade, and the rest are all chuunin. This is already a powerful ninja brigade.
Unless there is a full-scale war between Amegakure Village and Konoha, if it is just a small-scale battle, this ninja brigade is enough to deal with emergencies.
Of course, the main reason is that Konoha does not want to start a war now. Otherwise, just a village hidden in the rain, daring to enter the Country of Grass rashly, can already be regarded as a provocation to the Country of Fire and Konoha.
As the Iwagakure Village has not clearly betrayed its alliance and directly united with the Amegakure Village, Konoha does not dare to easily provoke a war.
After all, Namikaze Minato was unconscious and Jiraiya was seriously injured and needed to recuperate for several months.
Also setting off at the same time was Hatake Sakumo from the east gate. He led 300 ninjas to the northeastern border. In addition, there were more than 200 ninjas stationed there. If they were just dealing with Kumogakure's small-scale conflict, , is enough.
Unlike Nobuhiko, Hatake Sakumo was ordered to stay for a long time and form a confrontation with Kumogakure.
On the afternoon when the two masters and apprentices led their troops to leave Konoha, the village's senior officials held a high-level meeting.
Only this time, it was the Third Hokage who presided over the meeting.
Since the Nine-Tails Rebellion occurred outside the village, apart from the temporary loss of two of Konoha's top combat forces, the Third Generation was slightly injured. In other aspects, there was only some damage to property, and there were no casualties. It was a great blessing among misfortunes. .
"Everyone is here, let's start the meeting." Xiaochun looked around and nodded.
"We are summoned this time to discuss how to deal with the next thing." The Third Hokage said.
"Third-generation-sama, how is the fourth-generation-sama's situation?!" A jounin couldn't help but ask.
Those who can sit at the table are all high-level officials of Konoha who know most of the secrets of the village. From the Nine-Tails Rebellion to today, Namikaze Minato has never appeared. The third generation knows that this news cannot be hidden, so he is not prepared to keep it secret. Concealed.
"Minato's body did not suffer any damage, but his soul was damaged in order to seal the Kyuubi, so he has been unconscious. I am afraid he will remain comatose for the next period of time." The Third Hokage said solemnly.
"how so?!"
"Is there no way to save Minato-sama?"
"Didn't Tsunade-sama return to the village? Isn't there anything she can do?"
"What will we do without Minato-sama? The peace we finally won!"
"Quiet!" Hearing the jounin in the field talking about each other, with a look of excitement, Koharu, who was sleeping next to him, suddenly said: "Although Minato has fallen into a coma, the third generation is still there, why are you panicking!"
"Actually, we already have a method to treat Minato, but it will take some time. In order to keep it secret, only a few people know the specific method, and it will not be made public for the time being." The Third Hokage explained.
After everyone heard this, their expressions calmed down a bit.
As long as there is a cure, that's fine.
Although Namikaze Minato is relatively young, he has great military exploits and is very popular among the younger generation of Jonin. After all, the name of "Golden Flash" is powerful in the ninja world. Although the Third Hokage is powerful, he has not made a move for a long time. It is not yet known how many former 'Nin Xiong's have the strength.
"This means that the fourth generation may not wake up for a long time..." When everyone's discussion stopped, Danzo, who was sitting under the third Hokage's hand, suddenly said quietly.
"We will treat Minato as soon as possible, but we dare not give an exact time in terms of time." The Third Hokage said.
Danzo's eyes flickered slightly, "No matter what, the village cannot live without the leadership of the Hokage. Since the fourth generation can no longer continue to lead everyone, shouldn't a new successor be elected? At least someone should temporarily replace the fourth generation to handle the village's major affairs. Bar."
"Danzo, what do you mean?" Koharu's face changed slightly when he went to bed, "Minato is just unconscious. There are still three generations to temporarily take over Minato to handle things. I don't think there is any need to elect a successor!"
"I don't think it's necessary either." Mito Monoyan on the side also agreed.
"Hmph!" Danzo snorted coldly, "Don't forget, in the battle against Iwagakure, it was precisely because of Sandai's wrong decision at the beginning that the village suffered heavy losses, and he also gave up Iwagakure's compensation. Causing the village's ninjas to die in vain."
With that said, Danzo said in a conspiratorial manner: "I have received information that Hanzo from Amegakure Village has sent the vanguard to enter the Country of Grass, and Iwagakure also seems to be moving.
Mistakes made three generations ago have impacted the present.
When Orochimaru defected before, he took away a lot of secrets from the village, and the third generation did not send anyone to recover them.
Numerous events have shown that letting the third generation continue to lead the village was a wrong choice. "
Mito Kadoyan frowned and said: "Danzo, this matter has been handed over to Nobuhiko and Sakumo. The vanguard will soon arrive at the border to resist the enemy.
Moreover, Iwagakure and Amegakure do not necessarily dare to start a war with Konoha. "
After turning to bed, Koharu said: "Let us not care about the merits and demerits of Sandai. He has resigned as Hokage and let Minato take over. Now he is only temporarily acting as Hokage.
Now that Jiraiya is seriously injured and Minato is unconscious, our main task is to stabilize the interior and resist the invasion of foreign enemies, not to choose another Hokage.
Even if you choose another Hokage, can you guarantee that it will be more suitable than the third generation? "
Koharu was telling the truth. Some of the decisions made by the third generation in the third war did make some jounin dissatisfied, but he had already resigned.
Not to mention the achievements of the three generations in office, at least in the previous decades, their actions were definitely not stupid.
Now he is just allowed to temporarily take over as Hokage, which is also a move for stability.
"I can't see it! Who knows if the third generation will take this opportunity to occupy the position of Hokage again!" Danzo was still reluctant.
The opportunity was right in front of him, and although the hope was slim, he was definitely not willing to give up.
He finally managed to catch the third generation in the third battle and pulled him from the position of Hokage.
Now if the third generation is allowed to make achievements again, wouldn't he be completely eliminated from the position of Hokage?
"Danzo, since you are worried about this, why not set a one-year deadline. Regardless of whether we cure Minato within this year or not, I will give up my position as acting Hokage after one year.
Regardless of whether Hokage is re-elected at that time, I will not run. what do you think? "The Third Hokage promised.
"Sandaime-sama, you don't have to be like this. We believe in you."
"Yes, now that the Third Generation can temporarily serve as the acting Hokage, we can feel at ease."
As soon as the Third Hokage finished speaking, some Jonin who supported him spoke one after another.
Even when Namikaze Minato was in power, these people were more obedient to the Third Generation's orders, not to mention that now Namikaze Minato was in a coma.
Danzo's expression darkened, but he did not object.
The third generation's speech has reached this point, and if he objects again, it will be a bit messy.
In particular, there were many more people supporting the third generation than he expected. This was the key.
The chance of becoming Hokage directly was slim, so Danzo could only settle for the next best thing.
"In that case, I have no objection." Danzo calmed down and changed the topic: "Over at Yuyin Village, I will find a way to get Hanzo to withdraw his troops."
The news of the emptiness within Konoha was conveyed to Hanzo by him in order to put external pressure on Konoha.
Although the goal was not achieved, Danzo was not prepared to give up the credit for retreating Hanzo's army.
As long as he gives up some benefits, he can make Hanzo withdraw his troops, and when the time comes, he will be able to obtain a great achievement without losing any blood.
"Danzo, we can rest assured that you are here to help." Koharu nodded as she turned to bed. Although she opposed Danzo's competition for the position of Hokage, she still believed in his ability.
The other Jonin also nodded. Danzo was indeed a bit gloomy, but he was still very capable when facing foreign enemies.
If the threat to Yuyin Village could be solved without a war, that would be the best thing.
The meeting continued. Danzo failed to succeed, but he was not discouraged because he still had another plan.
The chance of becoming Hokage directly is very small, and there is nothing you can do if it doesn't happen.
But the second plan has a high probability of success.
“The reconstruction of the village is one thing, but this accident has also shown us some of the disadvantages of responding to emergencies.
In order to strengthen the previous connections between the various ninja clans, the village decided to re-plan and deploy.
Some ninjas need to relocate to a new location, please cooperate. "
After Danzo spread out the plan of the village, he said:
“The Nara clan has long wanted a forest where deer can be raised on a large scale, so they took this opportunity to move to the forest west of the village.
In addition, the Hyuga clan's clan land will not be moved, and the 34th training ground to the north will also be allocated to you.
besides......"
Danzo pointed out the changes in the plan unhurriedly, and most of the ninja clan benefited, so everyone basically had no objections.
Only the Uchiha clan moved directly from the center of the village to the far west.
This caused strong dissatisfaction with Uchiha Fugaku.
...
The land of grass.
After Nobuhiko led his army to the border, he sneaked into the border alone to gather information.
"It's a clumsy strategy, but it works." After a day of exploring the Land of Grass, Nobuhiko sneaked into the Hidden Rain Village.
It was discovered that some ninjas pretended to be Konoha ninjas and robbed villages and massacred civilians in the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain, causing widespread complaints.
Generally speaking, when the ninjas of the two countries fight, they rarely massacre civilians.
After all, none of the five major countries has the ability to completely destroy a country. If you are the attacker today, you may be the defender tomorrow. If you massacre the civilians of other countries today, your own country's civilians may also be massacred by other countries tomorrow.
Of course, what I'm talking about here is that large-scale massacres are rare.
However, when invading other countries, looting of civilians still occurs from time to time. If conflicts break out during this period, killings are unavoidable.
Generally speaking, few large villages directly identify themselves and massacre civilians.
This seems to be done by ninjas from other villages pretending to be Konoha ninjas.
Although the strategy is clumsy, it is very effective for civilians.
As for those in power, if they need a reason to deal with Konoha, they will naturally "fall into the trap".
Nobuhiko learned that before he arrived at the border, the army from Yuyin Village also robbed several families living on the border of Fire Country.
This was also the reason why he took action.
"If we directly invade Amegakure Village and kill Hanzo, we can do it." Nobuhiko stood on the hilltop opposite Amegakure Village, looking at the village he was heading to, and thought to himself.
According to Black Zetsu's information, Obito is currently in the Kingdom of Water, while Nagato has not fully mastered the power of the Rinnegan at this time and is avoiding Hanzo's pursuit.
If Nobuhiko wanted to attack Hanzo at this time, no one else would get in the way, and his reincarnated eye ability would not be exposed, so he could fight.
"If you use demigods to establish your authority, they should be much stronger than the Seven Ninja Swordsmen!"
