(); "Lord Raikage?"

The three Jonin followed the Raikage away, and one of them asked aloud.

Although the strength of Shigen and Shisui was beyond their expectations, Raikage obviously hadn't attacked with all his strength. Although the three of them were not good at it, they were at least able to fight. Why did they suddenly break away from the battle and choose to leave?

This made several people a little puzzled.

Because of Raikage's signal just now, they were far away from Raikage, so they did not hear the simple conversation between Raikage and Shiyuan.

"No need! I made a miscalculation this time!"

The Raikage glanced around sharply, then stretched out his clenched fist in front of him.

"hiss!"

The three Jonin couldn't help but gasp.

Raikage's physique is at the level of a perverted monster even in the entire Hidden Cloud Village, so fists as big as clay pots really exist.

But at this time, Raikage's right hand seemed to have shrunk tightly into a small claw, and because of the shrinkage, the movement of clenching it into a fist could not be unfolded.

It just looks weird and inconsistent.

"This is?!"

A Jonin's eyes were shocked, and his face couldn't help but turn pale.

"Did that kid do it, Rong Dun? I didn't expect that he was hiding so deeply, and he was a double-blooded ninja! I remember that I had only heard of Scorch Dun in Sand Hidden Village before, and he was a female ninja. I didn't expect that he would come out this time. I met one in Konoha too!"

"Two blood-stained ninjas?! How is this possible?!"

"Impossible? This ninja world is not that simple. It's not like double bloodstained ninjas don't exist. Maybe you will hear about it in the future."

Raikage once again put his hands aside, and then spoke to his subordinates in a calm tone.

"But how old is that boy named Sarutobi Tokigen?!"

The jounin continued.

If the Third Hokage stood in front of them and used Desuou Bloodstain, they might still be able to accept it.

After all, the third generation is known as the Doctor of Ninjutsu, and he is also one of the most balanced ninjas in the legend, that is, the hexagonal warrior that everyone admires.

Mastering one or two blood stains can be regarded as the fruits of decades of practice.

But how old is Sarutobi Tokigen, right?

According to the information currently available, Sarutobi Tokigen and Kakashi are ninjas of the same class, so he is only 17 years old this year, not even that? !

"There have always been true geniuses in the ninja world, and geniuses basically come from Konoha. The fourth generation Hokage was not very young at the time, but have you forgotten the terror he brought to Konoha's enemies?"

Lei Ying stared coldly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

The emergence of the Fourth Generation Eye had shaken his confidence.

The title of the fastest ninja in the world also automatically fell to the other party, but fortunately everything was over, and the shadow that hung over many people also dissipated unconsciously.

"Then Raikage's hand?!"

Another jounin asked worriedly.

"It doesn't matter. I can feel the presence of the hand, which means everything can still be saved. If I had been half a second slower in reacting and directly collided with Zhuo Dun, maybe I wouldn't have had this hand."

"Zhuo Dun is actually so strong?!"

"This is not a question of whether it is strong or not. Burning Release is almost the most restrained escape technique for us Ninja Technique type ninjas, but as long as you keep the distance, the damage of Burning Release will be greatly weakened. Just now I was careless in not checking for a moment, otherwise …”

"Then are we really going to leave like this now?!"

"Otherwise, why don't we stay here and wait for people from Konoha to outflank us?"

Although Raikage has a violent personality, his mind is not simple either.

Just after he retreated, he thought clearly about the follow-up of this operation. Strictly speaking, the purpose of coming out to show off his evil this time was not achieved. On the contrary, his appearance and defeat made the two Konoha ninjas famous!

The Raikage was forced to retreat with two enemies. This kind of achievement is still rare even in today's ninja world.

Of course, Raikage was not as interested as the guy who was called a 'demigod', and casually gave Tokiyuan and Shisui the title of 'Konoha Second Ninja', but the two of them definitely expanded their popularity after that!

Thinking of this, Raikage felt very unhappy.

"Let the tiger return to the mountain this time. If we meet again in the future, there will be two huge troubles. After we go back, we will increase the bounties of Shiyuan and Shisui and put them in the underground bounty house. It is necessary to disgust them. Maybe there will be What unexpected thing happened? I heard that there have been a few ninjas in the underground recently who took on tasks and completed them quickly. Their strength is not weak."

The Raikage continued to give instructions to the jounin beside him.

"Yes!"

The four of them stopped talking and quickly flew away into the distance.

There were so many people when we came, but when we returned now, only the few in front of us were left. The loss was not unbearable.

"Senior, it seems there are still people alive in the camp?!"

Shisui supported Shigen, who was slightly out of strength, and then with a movement of his Sharingan, he suddenly noticed that there were fluctuations of chakra in the sentry that he thought had been wiped out.

"Go in and have a look."

Shiyuan signaled Shisui to let go, and then walked steadily towards the sentry camp.

Konoha's border control is still very strict. Places bordering other countries like this are basically sentry posts every ten kilometers, and there are two ninja teams in one sentry. The basic structure of a ninja team is four The combat power of the chuunin, one of them may even be a jounin or a special king.

Entering the sentry camp, the two immediately saw a ninja who was not dead on the ground.

Shi Yuan hurriedly went over to help the other person up, and thought of something in his mind.Then he took out a homemade pill from his pocket and put it into the mouth of the ninja who seemed to be about to die in the next second.

It melts in your mouth and takes effect instantly.

The severely injured ninja opened his eyes after taking a few breaths: "Are you...Have the support from Konoha arrived? The one who attacked us is Kumogakure, and the leader is Raikage, but they are not many in number, please report to the village quickly , we might still be able to...ahem!"

As soon as he woke up, he talked a lot at once. At the end, he seemed to be out of breath, so he kept coughing to get rid of the breath in his chest.

Seeing that Shiyuan and Shisui didn't move, the injured ninja in front of him was still a little excited: "Go quickly! Raikage leads the ninja into the Land of Fire. This may be an opportunity for us. Don't worry about me, I think I can still carry it. Stop, you quickly request support from the village and then join forces with people from several surrounding sentries to block the Raikage."

"It's okay, Raikage and the others have left."

Zhishui said softly.

"Huh? How long have I been unconscious?"

After being stunned for a second, the ninja looked around and found that he was still at the previous camp. It seemed that not long had passed.

"I am Uchiha Shisui, and this is Sarutobi Tokigen-senpai. Our mission is to drive Kumogakure's ninjas out of the Land of Fire, so Raikage and the others have just been repelled by us!"

"Wha...what?! Defeat the Raikage? Just the two of you? How is this possible!"

The injured ninja wanted to stand up excitedly, but every movement of his body affected the injury, so he began to cough continuously.

He looked at the two young faces in front of him with a confused expression. Although he had an impression of the two names Shisui just said, who was the Raikage? ?

But...looking around, inexplicably, this ninja suddenly felt that he had some credibility.

So he sorted out the information in his mind and received it in a daze.

whoosh whoosh--

At this moment, there was a sound of wind in his ears, Shisui stood up suddenly, and Shi Yuan, who was supporting the injured ninja, also turned his head slightly to look in the direction of the sound.

"We're Border Patrol Unit [-], what's going on here?!"

A powerful voice sounded, and then a broad figure descended with five or six ninjas.

The other party glanced around, looking at the corpses lying on the ground, a hint of haze flashed in his eyes, and then his eyes fell on the ninja who was lifted up by Shi Yuan.

"We were attacked by Kumogakure. The leader was the Raikage, and there were a group of Kumo ninjas with him, but...but they said they had repelled the Raikage and his party, so is it true?"

The injured ninja immediately determined the identity of the visitor, so he quickly told what he knew and asked a question at the end.

"Repelling the Raikage?"

The leading ninja looked a little stunned.

"Hey, are you Shisui?!"

"Hello, Lord Choza, long time no see. My companion is Senior Sarutobi Tokigen. This time our mission is to repatriate the Kumogakure mission to the Land of Fire, so we encountered such a situation here, so we solved it easily. For a moment.”

Shisui recognized the leading ninja and stepped forward to answer.

"Sir, some corpses were found not far outside. It seems that they are indeed Kumogakure's people, but the corpses are relatively mutilated and may not be easy to collect."

Just as Shisui finished speaking, another ninja jumped in from outside.

Immediately after they arrived, they dispersed around to check the situation, thinking that they had already found some evidence.

"I see."

Dingzuo nodded, with some understanding in his expression.

Then, he looked past Shisui, whom he had met several times, to Shiyuan behind him.

"Are you Sarutobi Tokigen?!"

"That's right, Senior Dingzao."

Shi Yuan was neither humble nor arrogant, but he still had some impression of the big man in front of him.

Although I haven't officially met him in the village, I have met him a few times.

Besides, the other party is not only one of the core members of the 'Ino Shika Butterfly' who is in his prime, but he is also Choji's father, and he can be considered a figure, so it is naturally impossible for him not to recognize him.

"I heard the Sandaime tell you many times. You are indeed a genius on par with Kakashi."

"It's all the fault of the old man from the Third Generation."

"So the situation is really that you two fought off the Raikage?"

Ding Zuo's words made a big jump. One second he was still chatting, and the next second he was back to work.

"Yes, although the process was a bit complicated, with my assistance, Shisui did force the Raikage back."

Shi Yuan nodded slightly and admitted this fact. It was naturally impossible to escape from this kind of thing, but it was still Shi Yuan who opened his mouth.

"?"

On the side, Shisui was about to briefly talk about Shiyuan's achievements just now, but the expression on his face suddenly froze.

This seems a little different from what just happened.

He turned his head slightly to look at Senior Shi Yuan who was squatting on the ground. He opened his mouth slightly and was about to speak, but after seeing the look in Senior Shi Yuan's eyes, he closed his mouth inexplicably.

Senior Shi Yuan naturally has his own considerations, and he has no reason to expose his senior.

"Oh? When I looked at the scene outside, I thought it was Shisui who helped you force the Raikage back? After all, I heard that he had mastered the Melting Release."

"No, I just skimmed the formation from the side. Shisui was the one who exerted the most strength. I couldn't keep up with Raikage's speed. Only Shisui's teleportation technique had a chance to hit the opponent."

"Is that so?"

Akimichi Dingzao nodded, but his eyes were still a little suspicious.

He had already roughly seen the scene outside when he came here. It could be said that the ninjutsu had completely changed the surrounding terrain. If he hadn't known that there couldn't be a volcano here, he would have thought it was a volcanic eruption.

But since Shi Yuan said so, there was no reason for him to continue asking. Anyway, everyone knew some things, everyone understood them, and those who didn't didn't need to understand them. The interests involved were quite big.

Leaf Village.

Ever since the Kumogakure mission left, the state of the village has completely changed.

Even the civilians who were still immersed in the idea that peace was about to completely come still noticed something was wrong.

Although they were confused, looking at the ninjas patrolling the streets at any time, they had a hunch that the situation in the ninja world was not that simple.

The Hokage's office was filled with smoke. The few people sitting around here were the third generation and his three former teammates.

"Hiruzhan, I think you still haven't considered this matter this time. There is no need for Konoha to jump out and speak out at this period. Even if we suffer some grievances, it doesn't matter. We have survived so many years, and we are still afraid of these few years. ?"

After turning to bed, Koharu looked at the Sandaime sitting in the Hokage's seat with a somewhat reproachful tone.

There was no one else here, even the ANBU had been called out, so she spoke not as Hokage and Ninja, but as a comrade of many years.

Bada--

Sandai said nothing and continued silent with the spear in his mouth, as if he had no intention of refuting immediately.

"Indeed, Hiruzen! Kumogakure is different from us in Konoha now. Why don't we let them take a step and rest for a while? Haven't we already found a solution to the Hinata matter this time, why do we need to confront them head-on? Besides, even if Uchiha has a precedent of contact with Kumogakure, we all know that it is not the Uchiha family that Kumokaku wants to accept, but their blood, and even if they go to contact, it will not be possible in the end."

"Hmph! You put it lightly. If the Sharingan of the Uchiha family were to be lost to other ninja villages, it would definitely be a disaster for us in Konoha, not to mention that the people of Kumogakure are so disrespectful to the Sharingan and Byakugan. I have been eyeing the pupil-type bloodstains with a huge magic bonus for a long time. Do you believe that as long as we dare to put down our hands a little, Kumogakure will dare to come to pick up the Uchiha family tomorrow?!"

Danzo was sitting alone on one side of the sofa. His single eye looked gloomily at Mito Kadobu who had just spoken on the opposite sofa, his tone full of displeasure.

"But if a war breaks out, it will not be worth the losses for Konoha!"

Mito Gate inflammation continues to argue.

In his opinion, the Uchiha family's current outburst is just a serious illness and indiscriminate treatment, and there will be no results in the end.

But this time, it is really foolish to further antagonize Kumogakure because of Hinata and the hidden Uchiha.

"Start a war?! You think too much of Kumogakure's group of barbarians. So what if a war breaks out? Will we, Konoha, be afraid? At worst, both sides will suffer losses!"

Tuanzang said solemnly.

The reason why he reacted so strongly was actually because of the contact between Uchiha and Kumogakure.

If it was just about Hinata, he would definitely stand by the other two companions, but when it came to Uchiha, he had other ideas in mind.

You must not take a step back, otherwise Uchiha will follow in Hinata's footsteps and be noticed by Kumogakure.

"Hiruzen?! ​​Why don't you speak?"

When Koharu went to bed, he looked at Sandai who was sitting there and smoking. From the beginning to now, the other party didn't say a word, and the cigarette in the pipe had been changed several times.

"I have nothing to say. No matter what, I will stand firmly on the level of protecting the village, and Hinata is part of the village, so I have an obligation to protect them! As for the others, just some threats will make me give up the village It is impossible for some people now and in the future!”

Sandai exhaled the last puff of smoke from his lungs, then put aside the pipe that was exhausted again in his hand, and then spoke in a calm tone.

The other three people were stunned.

This is really inappropriate.

The third generation was not as young and passionate as the fourth generation, so when such words were said that should not have come from his mouth, everyone was a little surprised.

There is absolutely no problem in saying this in front of everyone in Konoha, but there are only four of them here at this time, and they have all lived for so many decades, and they have pulled the village out of the situation where the second generation was killed in battle. It is not a bit naive to say this. should.

There is no right or wrong in the adult world, there is only a matter of interest!

In the case of Hyuga, listening to the plan given by the Hyuga clan and giving up a Hyuga is definitely the most appropriate result for the current situation.

Sacrifice one person to buy more time and stability for the village.

"Hiruzen, you seem to have become very naive?!"

Mito Kabuto pushed his eyes above the bridge of his nose, and the lenses reflected a bright light to cover his eyes, and then he spoke frankly to the third generation.

"It's not me anymore. Do you still remember when the teacher left everything in the village in our hands?"

Sandai's seat is higher than the three people sitting on the sofa, so when he speaks at this time, he has a condescending air.

"Of course we remember!"

Mito Monohan frowned, but still answered decisively.

"Since you remember, you shouldn't ask me why I did this!"

Sandai directly raised his voice to retort, with complex emotions on his old face.

Danzo looked at the Third Generation strangely. He had been fighting openly and secretly with the Third Generation for so many years, but the other person at this time felt very strange to him.

What is the reason for such an unexpected change in the third generation?

He was curious and puzzled at the same time.

"Then let's not continue to discuss this matter. After all, the matter is already here and don't hurt everyone's harmony. Hiruzen, since you chose to do this, you should also be aware of the consequences. Although you have arranged many things for the meeting, But in fact, we all know that no matter what, the chance of another war in Kumogakure is not high, but they will definitely do something to target us. The most recent one should be to repatriate the Kumogakure mission. They may do something along the way. Little touches.”

Xiaochun moved to bed and started to be a peacemaker.

Over the years, there have been many disagreements between the four people, but every time everyone was able to sit together again and continue discussions.

Not because of anything else, just because everyone actually has a heart for Konoha.

Although sometimes unkind, he has always done nothing wrong when it comes to core interests.

"This time to repatriate the Kumogakure mission, I asked Shigen and Shisui to team up and go to the border. I believe that the two of them should be able to deal with the threat from Kumogakure. If the other party wants to show off their force to Konoha, If they show off their muscles, Yuan and the others will already knock down the opponent's morale at once!"

"Shisui, I know that Kagami's descendant is also the strongest ninja of the younger generation of the Uchiha family. But I have heard you talk about this Shigen many times, but I have never had the chance to get to know him. Is he as strong as you say? "

Xiaochun was talking as she went to bed, with a curious expression on her face.

"Sarutobi Tokiyuan has mastered Melting Release. I have not blocked this information. You all should know it, right? The last war with Kumogakure was also because he, Shisui and Kai cut off Kumogakure's logistics, so Only in the end did Kumogakure have to choose a truce."

Speaking of Shiyuan, a smile appeared on Sandai's face.

He is considered half of his disciples, so he has a sense of pride.

"I am very curious about him, but I don't know why he has been avoiding my people, so I have never had a chance to contact him."

Danzo put his hands on the crutches standing in front of him and said this casually.

He was probably one of the first people to learn about Sarutobi Tokiyuan, but because Tokiyuan was the third generation behind him, and the other person didn't show anything he liked, he was just curious.

"With Meltdown and an Uchiha ninja, I think there will be no problem in dealing with ordinary threats."

Mito Menyan followed.

"We are also prepared in other aspects. We don't need to be afraid if Kumogakure wants to expand the battle. I also asked for permission from the daimyo a few days ago."

"Well, I hope there won't be too much trouble, so does the Hinata family have anything to say this time?!"

Mito Menyan continued to ask.

Konoha has taken so many risks for one of Hinata's ninjas. Although this is actually what it should be, if the Hyuga family does not give appropriate chips for all the unknowns this time, it will definitely make the rest of the village complain. .

It's as if you were beaten by an outsider, and the whole village was gearing up to fight you back, and then you didn't say a word or smoke a cigarette. Is this appropriate?

This is of course inappropriate.

What everyone wants is not the reward, but a kind of meaning and attitude.

The Sandaime frowned slightly.

However, he continued to answer: "Hinata promised that if the war starts this time, they will bear part of the logistics and send at least fifty ninjas who can open the Byakugan at will to participate in the battle!"

"Then after talking about Hinata, we should also talk about the Uchiha. What do you think, Danzo?"

Mito Kadoyan nodded at Sandaime's words, and then turned to look at the old god Danzo.

"Uchiha?"

A fierce light flashed in Danzo's one eye, and then his whole aura became different.

He might get sleepy when it comes to other things, but when it comes to doing Uchiha, he's not sleepy at all. He's even in a mood to stand up and spin around a few times and do a set of geriatric aerobics.

"Yes, of course we can't ignore the contact between Uchiha and Kumogakure this time. I think there should be a decision on Uchiha's matter, right?"

Mito Kadoen looked at the third generation, "What do you think, Hiruzen?"

Although the third generation did not openly agree with the matter of squeezing Uchiha, he was the Hokage. Without his acquiescence, how could the village implement some key policies?

In the past, the third generation might have been wary of some old feelings, but now that Uchiha has developed some rebellious feelings, they think the third generation should also have his own ideas.

"Me? I still have my original idea. Let's deal with it coldly for some time and then discuss it slowly."

The third generation narrowed his eyes and looked at Danzo, and answered simply.

"why?!"

After sleeping, Koharu and the three of them have always been staunch enemies of the Uchiha faction. Although Danzo is the most exaggerated among them, they did not expect that they have reached this point and the third generation is still hesitant.

So they couldn't help but increase their tone.

"There are not so many reasons. Everything in the village should be protected. Even though the Uchiha have done many wrong things, I still choose to believe them. What they lack is proper guidance."

"Guidance? Does that family lack such a thing? If we don't make a decision early and take action, we will be the ones regretting it!"

"Or Hiruzen, you are soft-hearted, then I don't mind taking action on your behalf!"

Danzo said in a cold voice.

"Put it away, I don't want to see you doing any tricks down there."

Sandai replied.

In the past, Danzo had done many despicable things with his acquiescence, so he did not want this to happen again now or in the future.

"Hiruzhan, I understand you, you shouldn't be like this, but I will wait for the day you regret it."

Danzo stared at Sandai, looking at the serious look on his face. He knew that Sandai's words at this time were definitely coming from the bottom of his heart.

Although I don't know why he is so irrational, he really doesn't want to do some dirty tricks.

Since the Black Hand was wiped out of most of his positions by the third generation due to something previously, and his roots were greatly affected, his power in the village has been greatly weakened at this time.

But he had no regrets about that incident.

After all, if it succeeds, he will be the one sitting in the Hokage position now.
