Juggernaut of the Moonlight Family

Chapter 381 The Desire to End the War

Konoha.

The main road outside the village, which had been chilled since the beginning of the war, seemed very lively at this moment.

The gate of Konoha has been completely occupied by many Konoha ninjas, and around the ninjas are their relatives and friends, either holding their hands silently but forcefully, or exhorting them with red eyes. be careful.

And in the back, there are civilians who came to watch the fun.In the village at this time, ninjas have become "rare animals".

Soon, when the departure time came, the ninjas told their relatives and friends, lined up in an irregular queue, and set off on the road to the battlefield.

Although on weekdays, even the genin are used to jumping around in the trees like monkeys, but when thousands of people move together, it is obvious that this way of traveling is more orderly and faster.

Although the team of thousands of people does not sound like a lot, it seems to stretch for nearly a kilometer, which is spectacular.

However, for the Konoha people who have long been accustomed to larger groups going out, this is just a small scene.

However, this small-scale team still attracted discussions from Konoha civilians watching the excitement.

The reason for the discussion is also very simple, that is the direction in which this team is heading.

. . .

"Hey, didn't the news that came before say that Iwagakure has increased its troops? Why does it seem to me that this team is heading south?"

"Humph, it's nothing to increase the number of troops on Iwagakure's side. I heard that on Kumogakure's side, the newly-appointed Yondaime Raikage and the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki have gone to the front line."

"Even if it's to support Oshemaru-sama, isn't that the right direction?"

"That's true? Didn't all the Wuyin people in the south have been beaten and disabled? I heard that even Mizukage was killed by Master Sakumo. Why did you send so many people to the south?"

"Who knows?"

"Why don't you know? I remember that Mitsui Kari, your neighbor's Mitsui family, who retired the year before last, was also re-recruited this time? Didn't you hear anything from him?"

"Hey, do you need to teach me this? I asked Anbu the day he came to see him, and he doesn't know anything."

"Ah, then didn't they go to the battlefield in a daze this time?"

"Hey, who said no?"

"I don't know how many people will come back alive in the end."

Speaking of casualties, the topic suddenly became heavy, and no one was in the mood to continue the chat.

. . .

Just like what Konoha’s civilians said in the chat, even the ninjas who participated in the mission couldn’t figure out why they didn’t go to the northwest to support the Jiraiya army, nor to the northeast to support the Orochimaru army. , but went straight to the sea.

"Lord Kosuke, do you know why we went south this time? Could it be that Kirigakure is back?"

Compared with other genin who are full of doubts but don't know who to ask, Baiyun Yeshan, who is a disciple of Moonlight Clear Sky and is very familiar with the army chief Kosuke, is much luckier and can directly ask Kosuke. Inquiry.

Kosuke, who had been fighting against Yan Yin under Jiraiya's command, had to return to the village for treatment not long ago because of an injury, and had a prosthetic leg fitted to his left foot.

Just when he was able to walk normally on the ground, he was "captured" by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Although Gu Jie tried to evade it in every way as a ninja, but now Sarutobi Hiruzen, who wanted to grab melatonin even if he was holding a toad, would not care about his evasive rhetoric.

Use as many bowls as you want.

As for Gu Jie, an "old fritter" who is called Xiaren but actually possesses the strength of an elite Jinnin, this important task was directly and indisputably assigned to him.

For this team, half of which is composed of re-recruitment of retired ninjas, naturally they will not have any objections to this appointment.

They are all old guys who either grew up with Gu Jie or watched Gu Jie grow up. It is not clear what the strength of Gu Jie, a guy who always smiles and carries a big blame.

As for the remaining young and even a few middle-aged people, under the pressure of these old seniors, old bosses and even relatives, they dare not speak out against it.

"Oh, Xiaoyeshan, you are already a Chunin, I can't afford to be an adult like you."

However, Gu Jie, who has long been used to his identity as a ninja, is not used to his new identity. Whenever someone calls him "adult" like Hayama, he still can't help but retort.

"Master Kosuke."

Baiyun Yeshan couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

As a person who once went to Gu Jie for advice on Konoha-ryu swordsmanship under the leadership of his master Qingkong, he is well aware of Gu Jie's strength.

"Okay, okay, Xiaoyeshan, don't ask any more questions. I won't be able to tell you before I get to the beach. You should give up."

Thinking of the Sarutobi Hiruzen he had talked with himself late last night, Kosuke's narrowed eyes became a little firmer, and he shook his head with a smile.

. . .

"Master Sandaime, the army going south has already left."

In Hokage's office, Hiruzaru Sarutobi stood in front of the window, the pipe in his mouth flickering.

"understood."

After lightly nodding his head to indicate that he knew, the secretary bowed and left the office.

"I hope that kid's guess will be correct this time."

Hearing the sound of closing the door, Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched out his hand to take down the pipe, and exhaled a puff of light blue smoke, which obstructed his sight, just like his heart that was also shrouded in fog at this time.

Although Yue Guanglan's deduction sounded very likely to him, Sarutobi Hiruzen was under great pressure to make this decision without definite evidence, so before setting off, he specially reminded Kosuke First of all, unless the Yunyin Ninja invaded from the sea, it is absolutely not allowed to disclose half of the mission content.

In this case, even if Yunyin did not invade from the sea in the end as Yueguanglan inferred, he could just change his explanation and put the responsibility on himself.

He will be 50 years old soon, even if he had to step down from the position of Hokage because of this incident, even if he has regrets in his heart, he can let it go.

On the contrary, Yue Guanglan is only in her teens now, and she still has a long way to go. If she shoulders such a big crime too early, it will definitely have a very bad impact on her future.

If it didn't work out, he would have to bear the burden of being a "sinner" for the rest of his life, which was really not what he wanted to see.

"I just hope that Jiraiya and Orochimaru can survive for a few more days."

Pushing open the window, the breeze passing through the street rolled up the curtain of his hat, but it also blew away the blue smoke that enveloped him in unison.

"The outcome of the war should depend on the next few days!"

Seeing Konoha, who had been busy for a while because of the departure of the last batch of reserve troops, returned to the previous desertedness again. The confusion in his eyes was blown away by the breeze like blue smoke, and the originally cloudy eyes became clear and resolute again. .

"It's time for this war to end!"

　Today is only 4000 words, the third ninja war is about to end, and it's time to start the next volume.
