Create a swarm technology tree in Konoha

It would be wrong to say that Konoha Village lacks offensive spirit.

During the first generation's reign, Konoha Village was killing everyone and suppressing the ninja world. How could it not attack?

Konoha, ruled by the Second Hokage, still attacks from all sides. Even if it is besieged by the four major nations, Senju Tobirama will counterattack one by one without hesitation. There are only sporadic battles in the Fire Country itself, and no major war has ever broken out.

Konoha under the rule of the Sandaime was much weaker, but it had also attacked Sunagakure Village. Hiruzen Sarutobi also led the Konoha ninjas to the gate of Iwagakure Village, but both times were not planned by Hiruzen Sarutobi. He was just "kindly invited" by Orochimaru to participate.

By the way, Orochimaru. Orochimaru is very good at attacking and often advocates attacks with Danzo. You can ask him to lead this attack.

The third generation Hokage killed this idea instantly, because he had decided to resign as Hokage and put the fourth generation Hokage on the stage, and the candidate for this Hokage was not Orochimaru.

With the new Hokage about to take office, handing over the final war, which concentrates all the combat power of Konoha, to Orochimaru's command would be irresponsible to the new Fourth Hokage, and to Konoha Village, and would even lead to Konoha's death. Civil War in Leaf Village.

"Forget it, let's take it slow. There is only one Cloud Hidden Village left anyway, and I can survive them to death." The third Hokage finished smoking his pipe, knocked the ash off, and then disappeared from the Hokage Rock.

…

The war between Konoha Village and Iwagakure Village ended. The ninjas of the two families retreated from the Country of Rain and the Country of Grass, and then concentrated on the Country of Fields and the Country of Yu, respectively, with the target of Kumo Hidden Village.

It was originally a two-on-one battle between three villages, but suddenly it became a two-on-one battle, which was equivalent to doubling the number of enemies in each direction. The increase in pressure was not a double, but a four-fold increase. Calculated.

The two factions fighting in the Hidden Cloud Village were dumbfounded. After the third generation Raikage was framed by the nobles and died under the siege of the Iwa Ninja, the furious Ai retaliated crazily and killed all the nobles involved in the conspiracy in a short time, fully demonstrating his The violence of this Kumogakure ninja.

But Ai can't kill all the nobles, so Yunyin Village will cease to exist.

After the mediation of the daimyo, they agreed that they would each take charge of the enemies in one direction, and whoever defeated the enemies in Hidden Cloud Village first would win the battle for the Raikage.

Ai was very confident about this. He had already made a plan and was ready to destroy the power of Yanyin Village in one fell swoop. After defeating the Iwa Ninja, he succeeded the fourth generation Raikage, mastered the power of the entire Cloud Hidden Village, and launched the final challenge to Konoha Village, knocking Konoha from the position of the number one ninja village in the ninja world.

As a result, just before the plan was launched, the number of rock ninjas in Tian Country suddenly doubled, and the strength and offensive and defensive postures of both sides were reversed. Ai, who was flashing, had a mouthful of old blood in his stomach and almost went crazy.

There are two Jinchuuriki and Tsuchikage in the Iwa ninjas in the Land of the Land, and there are, well, who are there in the Konoha ninjas in the Yuno Country?

There is really no one in Konoha who is in charge of the overall situation, not even a mediocre commander like the person in charge of the Rain Country, Misura Hamaki, has been assigned one.

Originally, this position should belong to Danzo Shimura of Shinobi. Unfortunately, he has been missing for a long time and it has been two years since he was judged dead. The Hokage just can't choose a suitable candidate.

Sarutobi Hiruzen himself wanted to sit in the Leaf Village and could not go out. The two Hokage assistants proved their incompetence and met with fierce opposition. Orochimaru was the most suitable, but it would affect the succession of the fourth generation. The scheduled fourth generation Namikaze Minato too young.

The final candidate, Jiraiya, had a conflict with his teacher. He left his words and ran to Mt. Myoboku. He could not be found again.

In fact, there are many qualified candidates for commanders in the village. The older generation Nara Shikaku and Akimichi Tofu, and the younger generation Uchiha Fugaku and Hyuga Hizashi are also very powerful ninjas, but they all have various abilities. The reason cannot be accepted by the Hokage.

That's why the Third Hokage said: Just take your time.

…

"Senior Orochimaru, are you stationed in the laboratory again?"

"Yes, it's time to make way for the Yondaime, and I'm just taking a break to teach the students." Orochimaru lazily flipped through the experiment records and asked Aburame Tetsumaru, "What do you want again? I'm here Is there anything else you want?"

"Nowhere, Lord Orochimaru, there are always new treasures being born here. How come there isn't what I want?"

"But you actually accepted the result that you can't be the fourth generation so calmly. Are you ready to leave Konoha Village and start your own business?"

Orochimaru's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "Does Tetsumaru-kun actually have the time to care about this issue? Speaking of which, you are my senior in this regard. Do you have any experience or lessons to tell me?"

Aburame Tetsumaru replied with a smile: "Yes, of course I do, but I'm not going to tell you. I very much hope that your business will fail."

Is this something you can say face to face?

Orochimaru's eyes became dangerous, and he stared silently at Aburame Tetsumaru, who was in the presence of the old god. After a long time, he said coldly: "What do you want?"

Aburame Tetsumaru made a serious request: "The latest version of the Earth Reincarnation Technique, as well as the sealing technique, the more the merrier."

Orochimaru said: "After Danzo disappeared, I haven't updated the sealing techniques for a long time. You have replaced the old ones. There are many improvements in the Reincarnation of the Earth, what are you going to replace them with?"

"It's okay if you have the Earth Reincarnation." Upon hearing that there were new developments in the Earth Reincarnation, Aburame Tetsumaru generously asked Orochimaru to bid, "You can ask for anything I have here, there is absolutely nothing I can't give."

Orochimaru sneered: "My tone is getting louder and louder. I want the art of immortality, do you have it?"

Aburame Tetsumaru looked over with disdain: "As I said, I can give you whatever I have here. I don't have the art of immortality, no. Orochimaru, if you are angry with your teacher, don't look for me. Cha, think carefully before making another request."

Orochimaru sighed. He went through life and death for Konoha Village, to defeat Konoha's enemies, and to protect Konoha's ninjas. How many nights did he stay up, racking his brains and making crazy calculations? How could he possibly deal with the Hokage who slipped from his palm? Position indifferent.

…

After completing the exchange, Orochimaru stopped the Aburame Tetsumaru who was about to leave. He asked: "Tetsumaru-kun, why didn't Mr. Sarutobi choose me?"

Aburame Tetsumaru looked at Orochimaru, who showed a tired and decadent look for the first time, and was filled with emotion. This was still his pro-student. If he had not jumped out of the small circle of Konoha Village, he would have endured ten times the depression.

"I have too many ideas. How much do you want to hear, Orochimaru-senpai?"

"Tetsumaru-kun, just say it, I won't be able to bear even some dark things."

"Okay, this is what you said."

Aburame Tetsumaru is in high spirits. Government building is what I'm best at. Let's experience the crazy association ability of keyboard politics-habitat.

"The reason why your teacher Hiruzen Sarutobi created so many messes is related to his most cherished goal, which is to establish the Sarutobi Dynasty in Konoha Village."

Orochimaru: Are you kidding me?

"Don't interrupt me, or I won't say anything, and as long as I leave this door, I won't admit every word I say."

"Every decision the Third Hokage has made so far is based on one principle, which is to maintain balance and stability."

"In his mind, balance means that all the Konoha ninjas under him maintain a balance with each other. No ninja is obviously better than the others. For every Konoha ninja who is not attached to others, Naruto will be very concerned about his personal strength and family. He evaluates the four aspects of strength, power in the village, and personal reputation. As long as the combination far exceeds that of others, he will use means to restore the balance."

"Most of the time, the Third Hokage will use the method of supporting other ninjas. This can not only enhance the strength of Konoha Village, but also make the strongest ninja disappear from everyone, thereby restoring balance."

Aburame Tetsumaru said this and looked at Orochimaru: "For example, Hatake-senpai was the top ten years ago and he supported you Sannin. For example, today you are the top and he supported Namikaze Minato."

"Of course, if there is a super strong ninja who is difficult to balance even with his full support, Naruto's dark side will be revealed."

Having said this, Aburame Tetsumaru paused, and Orochimaru was silent. They all thought of Konoha White Fang. Although his choice of death was unexpected and unexpected by everyone, the Hokage's attitude towards him was very clear. .

Today, the Hokage's suppression of Orochimaru was much gentler. He only changed his position so that he lost the power to directly command the ninja army. If Danzo had used such a gentle approach when dealing with Hatake Sakumo, such a tragedy would never have happened.

But Naruto still misjudged the wrong person. Orochimaru was completely different from Hatake Sakumo. He was a prodigal, not an honest person.

How can a prodigal son be so easy to control? If Orochimaru is not tied down by the responsibility of being Hokage, he will feel aggrieved while happily throwing away his responsibilities and running out alone to be cool.

"The question is not what method the Hokage uses, the question is why does the Hokage struggle to maintain a balance? Could there be someone in Konoha Village who threatens the Hokage's power and status?"

"It's impossible. In the power structure of Konoha Village designed by the Second Hokage, Hokage's power is very powerful. Moreover, the Third Hokage has experienced power struggles and experienced every war in Konoha. His power base is It is extremely stable. No matter how great achievements the Konoha ninjas make today, they are all done under the leadership of the Hokage, and by default the greatest credit should be the Hokage's."

"In the last war, Konoha White Fang achieved half the results of all Konoha. After getting the Hokage Half Sleeve, everyone felt frightened. Even all Konoha ninjas felt that it was a bit out of line. Is there any sign of threatening the Hokage?"

"So what is the Hokage worried about?" Aburame Tetsumaru sneered and said the answer, "After thinking about it, the only problem is the heir."

"But what does the successor of Hokage have to worry about? Wouldn't it be good to let the strongest ninja serve as the fourth generation? If there are too many powerful ninjas, then choose the one with the greatest merit among the strongest group of ninjas, or the most powerful one. Anyone who is smart has no problem.”

"Shouldn't the only problem with the Kage's successor be that there is no one to choose? Just like today's Iwagakure Village, the backbone generation has been completely wiped out, and there is no outstanding elite jounin. This is the problem."

"How can Konohagakure have this problem? Aren't Hatake Sakumo, you, senior, Jiraiya, Tsunade, Namikaze Minato, Uchiha Fugaku, Hinata Hizashi, and even me all optional targets?"

"Never say that a ninja from a big family is not suitable. The third Hokage is named Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the Sarutobi family he comes from is the leading family in Konoha Village."

Ignoring Orochimaru's confused eyes, Aburame Tetsumaru continued at his own pace: "Under such circumstances, the Hokage himself intervened in the choice of the Fourth Hokage. I can only think that the person he really wanted to choose was It’s not within this scope at all.”

"Therefore, the Third Hokage can only choose a ninja who is young enough, weak enough, and has no foundation to serve as the Fourth Hokage, so that after he leaves office, he can take over the new Hokage and serve as the fifth Hokage for the successor he really wants. paving."

"Senior Orochimaru, only in this case, you are an inappropriate candidate for the Fourth Hokage because you are too strong."

Orochimaru's eyes suddenly turned into snake eyes. He had already agreed with Aburame Tetsumaru's guess. A personal name flashed through his mind, and finally he locked on one name.

"Sarutobi Asuma, I guess it's him. He graduated at the age of nine and was promoted to chuunin at the age of twelve. He has taken every step so solidly. The next step is to become the captain. I predict that every team member will be carefully selected."

In the original history, Twelve years later, Asuma wasted a whole ten years, forcing the Third Hokage to get angry, and blatantly arranged for Asuma to tutor the children of the Inar, Deer, and Butterfly clan chiefs, while his fiancée, Yuhi Kurenai, was a student. He is the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, the son of the Inuzuka clan leader, and the only son of the Aburame clan leader.

The students and parents of this couple united, and they were almost one-third of the strength of Konoha Village at that time. Asuma's path to Hokage was so smooth that unless he died, he would be the only one.

Then Sarutobi Asuma died.

But the arrangement of the third generation of Hokage was so powerful that even if it became a legacy and was inherited by the Sarutobi family, Konohamaru of the Sarutobi family is still the strongest competitor of Hokage.

But this future probably won't happen. As long as Namikaze Minato can survive, Sarutobi Asuma won't have a chance.

Based on his strength, Asuma, an elite jounin, was not qualified to replace Minato.

Due to his age, before Minato gets old, the second generation of Konoha Shuangaku will be online. By then, Asuma will still be fighting, but not just the Sarutobi family, but all Konoha ninjas will have to bow their heads and admit defeat.

It would be wise for everyone to accept their fate honestly, seize the time to have children, and work hard to prepare for the next generation of Hokage to compete for the position of Hokage.

"After a little investigation, I found that Asuma was not the first one to be arranged. His eldest brother had taken the same path ten years ago. It's a pity that the eldest son of the Hokage really didn't live up to expectations and just couldn't stand up. Otherwise, It’s not the turn of ‘Golden Flash’ to stand up today.”

Orochimaru's face was already livid, and he made a final struggle: "This is just your guess."

Aburame Tetsumaru sneered: "Of course there is no evidence, but Orochimaru-senpai, you can check the low-key Sarutobi family and see how far they have developed now."

"In front of the powerful Sarutobi family, the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan are all scum. The combined population of their two families is less than one-fifth of the Sarutobi clan."

"This is the foundation of the Sarutobi Dynasty. With this foundation, they can't even fight for the Hokage. As long as there is a sensitive Hokage in power, it is impossible to tolerate the existence of the Sarutobi family with a population of tens of thousands. They want to avoid In the crisis of being split up, the only and best way is to ensure that every generation of Hokage has the surname Sarutobi."

After happily explaining his dark speculation, Aburame Tetsumaru disappeared, leaving only the lost Orochimaru alone in the laboratory thinking about something.
