I haven't seen fireworks.

Two hours later, Minato left the office with a respectful look.

The communication with Tsunade has made him gain a lot.

He found that Tsunade may be a little different from the Tsunade he knew.

Tsunade, whom she has witnessed with her own eyes, has clear logic and quick thinking, and can quickly grasp the essence of problems.

Such a wise Tsunade can compete with Tsunade who pioneered medical ninjutsu and developed a series of antidotes, nearly defeating Sunagakure by herself.

And the strength seems to be very strong. Although the two have never fought, Minato can feel the pressure that Tsunade inadvertently brings to him.

And the Tsunade he knew before was savage, willful, violent, and unreasonable.

The person he knew now was almost the same person.

"By the way, my knowledge of Tsunade-sama seems to come from my teacher!" Minato suddenly knew what was going on with this difference in perception.

In this situation where he was tricked by the teacher, he could only smile bitterly.

After bidding farewell to Kushina again, Minato quickly went out, walked a few more steps, and arrived at the door of Hokage's office.

Knocking lightly on the door: "Lord Hokage, Jounin Namikaze Minato wants to see you..."

"Please come in!"

Minato's heart felt warm for no reason, Sarutobi Hiruzen never said please.

He opened the door gently and walked in.

The Hokage's office in the Orochimaru era was very different from that in the Sarutobi Hiruzen era. Not only was it no longer a closed room, but there were two huge bookshelves behind the chair, and there was also a large window on the right hand side. On the other side of the window was a The large office was equipped with several white lamps, illuminating the entire room as if it were daytime.

There were many people in the room, some were lying on the table, and some were walking through the room holding thick documents, and they didn't know what they were doing.

Minato was afraid that he might have seen some secret, so he quickly turned his head away.

"Minato-kun, if you want to visit the village, I can send someone to take you around when you have free time. Coming back from the front line without authorization is not recommended!" Uncle Snake put down the pen in his hand, looked up at Namikaze Minato, and said face smile.

When the three of them accepted apprentices, Orochimaru preferred Namikaze Minato. Firstly, both of them were born civilians. Secondly, both of them had good ninjutsu talents, so they were more compatible in terms of compatibility.

But Tsunade didn't want Nakoki to follow Jiraiya, after all, Ziraiya at that time was not only lustful, but also had a bit of a stubborn personality.

Naoshu was stupid to begin with, if he followed Jiraiya again, the Senshou Clan might really be hopeless.

This incident simply passed through Uncle Snake's mind and did not cause any waves.

"Hokage-sama, I violated the village law, and Minato is willing to accept the punishment!" Minato replied immediately.

"Just read it once and memorize the Konoha Code?" Orochimaru asked with a smile.

"That's not true, I just remembered the one I committed!" Minato said.

Leaving the battlefield without authorization is equivalent to escaping during war. Different punishments will be imposed depending on the seriousness of the circumstances, and the most serious ones may even be sentenced to death.

"Sit down, the Konoha Code will not be officially implemented until January next year, and I can't control you now!" Orochimaru waved his hand.

He would not be willing to kill a genius like Namikaze Minato, and he was not Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Minato then realized that there were tables and chairs next to him.

At the time of Sarutobi Hiruzen, there was no such thing in the office. When handing over tasks and meeting the Hokage, everyone had to stand.

He sat down on the wooden sofa, and then a little girl came out of the office next to him and poured him a cup of tea.

"Thank you!" Minato quickly thanked him.

I always feel that this atmosphere is weird. Is this still a ninja...

But it feels like this is good, as if in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he is just a tool to perform tasks, but in front of Orochimaru, he is a person.

"Choosing you to be the commander of the fourth legion is not a temporary decision, but you are the most suitable!" Orochimaru explained patiently: "The ninjas of Kirigakure are best at water escape and swordsmanship. Water escape is slow and swordsmanship is short. These two All these skills are restrained by speed ninjas and thunder ninjas, but we don’t have any decent thunder ninjas in Konoha, so it’s most appropriate to send you there!”

Minato stood up quickly and said, "As long as it's for the village, I can go anywhere!"

"Sit down and talk, sit down and talk!" Orochimaru hurriedly waved his hand: "We don't do what we did before. When fighting, we not only have to win, but we also have to fight beautifully. We hurt the enemy by one thousand and lose eight hundred by ourselves. We Of course you can’t do it, so it’s not enough to just see if you obey orders, but you also have to see if it fits!”

"The Uchiha clan is obviously not suitable for the Kirigakure battlefield, and Fire Release is obviously more suitable for facing enemies who use Wind Release and Thunder Release. And those who are more suitable for the Kirigakure battlefield are the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, so a large number of them have been incorporated into the Fourth Legion. The Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan currently on the Kirigakure battlefield will gradually evacuate after your arrival and move to Sunagakure and Kumogakure battlefields!" Orochimaru said.

"Yes!" Minato nodded repeatedly. In fact, he also felt that it was inappropriate to put the Uchiha clan on the Kirigakure battlefield. However, he was just a young jounin at that time, and he had no reputation, and no one listened to his words.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen said that no one was sent to explain it.

Now Minato knows, it turns out that Hiruzaru Sarutobi is planning to suppress various clans, so some clans are deliberately assigned to battlefields where they are not suitable for survival.

Having said that, his recognition of the Fourth Hokage is much higher.

His target was also Hokage, but he didn't expect that the fourth Hokage would be his turn. It would have to be a matter of the fifth or sixth generation.

But now it seems that Orochimaru, the fourth generation of Hokage, is clever and fair. Even if he comes to power, he may not be able to do better than Orochimaru, so there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

"So what is our goal on the Kirigakure battlefield? Is it to delay or to win?" Minato asked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had given him instructions to maintain balance on the Kumogakure battlefield, not to advance rashly, and not to be beaten back.

"Konoha's primary goal is to win this battle and try to end this war within a year!" Orochimaru said: "However, there are strategic priorities and wars have their own sequence. Our plan is to hide in the sand first, then Yunyin, Yanyin, and finally Wuyin!"

"Kistokaku's strategy is a bit special. They didn't come here to win us, but to hold us back and make us distracted and unable to focus on other battlefields. Therefore, when we are on other battlefields When things go well, Kirigakure will definitely dispatch the main force to attack you, and this attack will not stop until Iwagakure is defeated!"

"I want you to resist this pressure!"

"The fourth legion has the smallest number of people, but it is mainly composed of the Hyuga clan and earth escape ninjas. The offensive type may not be strong, but the defensive ability is first-rate. Moreover, they are still receiving training. When you set off, each of them will at least I can learn three more defensive ninjutsu..."

"Yeah!" Minato nodded repeatedly. If you say that, I will be much clearer.

The previous battles were fought in a muddle. After three or four years of fighting, I didn't know what I had achieved, what to do next, and how long this battle would last.

Sarutobi Hiruzen from behind would occasionally come over and ask them to move the battle line three centimeters to the side.

He went to war at the age of 16 and is now 20!

If it takes another 4 years, won't it be impossible to get married until the age of 24?

It's good now, at least we see hope of ending the war.

"In addition, although you need to defend, it is not a complete defense. Uchiha Zhanghuo will stay to cooperate with you. His Kaleidoscope Eye Technique cooperates with your Flying Thunder God Technique. He has a strong ability to kill instantly at a fixed point. I will give you part of it regularly. List, apart from defense, you are responsible for clearing the names on the list!"

"Yes!" Minato nodded.

"Also, if you're not on the list, don't act rashly!" Orochimaru added, otherwise it would be embarrassing if he killed one of his own.

"Yes!" Minato was stunned for a moment, feeling that this order was very strange.

However, he has an excellent quality, that is, absolute loyalty to the village and strong execution ability.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen was around, he was loyal to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and now that Orochimaru is Hokage, he will naturally be loyal to Orochimaru.

For Orochimaru's orders, those who understand will execute them, and those who don't understand will try to understand and execute them.

"That's all!" Orochimaru put pen to paper and handed a letter of appointment to Minato: "Do you have any questions?"

"Um, about the Datong Society..." In fact, after talking to Tsunade and Orochimaru one after another, he had already determined that these two people still love Konoha and would never be detrimental to the village.

Obviously, that Datong Society is not some evil organization.

But you still have to ask.

"Datongshe!" Orochimaru turned over the table, then pulled out a white paper and handed it over.

Minato took it over and took a look, "Collected Works of Datong".

"You will know what kind of organization Datong Society is after reading this book. If you just read it, you may not understand it. I suggest that when you have nothing to do, you can go to the countryside and cities to have a look and talk to those people. Chat with refugees and orphans!" Orochimaru thought for a while and said: "This is not a task, it is just a suggestion, but if you really want to understand the Datong Society, you should do this..."

Minato is different from them all.

Orochimaru has a rich life experience, and has been suppressed by Danzo and Hiruzaru Sarutobi one after another. Tsunade has traveled around the world, and the pharmacist Nonoyu has treated orphans for several years. All over the world, they naturally resonate with the various concepts of Datong Society.

But Minato is different. Although he was born as a commoner, he has been a genius since he was a child. He grew up in an atmosphere of stars and moons. After graduation, he first became a disciple of Jiraiya, and then spent a lot of time on the battlefield.

This kind of life experience is really far different from that of low-level ninjas and ordinary people.

It is very difficult to give him a sense of belonging to Datongshe just by persuading and explaining it with words. He has to go for a walk and have a look.

Fortunately, Minato himself is talented and intelligent, and his thinking height is far beyond that of ordinary ninjas. Give him a copy of "Datong Anthology", and he can realize it by himself.

Minato took the book with both hands. It was obviously not a thick book, but he actually felt as if it weighed more than Mount Tai.

He knew that the answers he wanted to pursue were all in it, why Orochimaru and Tsunade were willing to be subordinates, and even became executors when they became Hokage, and why Kushina and even Nine Lamas were willing to join.

"Is there more?" Orochimaru continued to ask.

"Well, after I leave, what will my three subordinates do?" Minato asked.

"Kakashi is a jonin, right? He can already lead the team alone!" Orochimaru said: "According to the past practice, it should be to add a new team member to him and form a new team, but I see Minato-kun, you have Any other ideas?"

"Yes!" Minato nodded: "Kakashi is very talented. He created an A-level Thunder Release himself, which is very powerful. Since you said that Thunder Release is more useful on the Kirigakure battlefield, I was thinking about letting him Are they following me? After all, Kakashi is also a newly promoted Jonin, so he may be lacking in experience..."

The relationship between him and Kakashi is just that of captain and subordinate, and there is no master-disciple relationship. After all, the ninjutsu he knows is either inconvenient to teach, or has wrong attributes and cannot be learned by his disciples.

But he did treat his three subordinates as apprentices and even as his own children.

It can't be said that Minato treats people sincerely. As long as they are companions, he is always so warm.

"Is that so?" Orochimaru nodded: "I understand, they can follow you to the Kirigakure battlefield, but the young eagle will eventually take off alone. When it is time to let go, it is appropriate to let go!"

"Thank you Hokage-sama, I understand!" Minato nodded.

After leaving the office building, Minato breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that there is indeed no doubt about the death of the former Hokage.

Rather, Senior Orochimaru is decisive in dealing with things, and can kill relatives righteously, which is admirable.

If Jiraiya-sensei also...

I shouldn't have the courage to attack him.

However, Datong Society...

He raised the book in his hand, and opened it carefully against the setting sun.

The first article at the beginning: the journey of the great road.
