Armed Forces of Naruto

Several ferocious water dragons appeared, leaving the three cloud ninjas with no time to react. The three cloud ninjas were instantly knocked unconscious by the water dragons.

Seeing that his sudden attack hidden in the dark had achieved results, Rooshu also breathed a sigh of relief.

In order to be effective in one blow, Nose Tree's multiple water dragon bullets accumulated two-thirds of his own chakra.

At this moment, Naoki, who was a little tired, looked at Namikaze Minato, who was already injured all over his body: "Can you still hold on?"

"If you can hold on, let's continue chasing." Namikaze Minato forced out a smile, replied to the rope tree, and rushed out in an instant.

Naoki didn't hesitate at all and immediately rushed out following Namikaze Minato.

The moment the two people rushed out, their bodies were instantly picked up by Qingye.

"Aoba-sensei!" Being lifted up in the air by Aoba, Nawaki and Namikaze Minato's faces were filled with joy.

"Kushina has been taken away, Aoba-sensei." Minato Namikaze looked at Aoba and spoke anxiously.

Aoba didn't say a word. Under the gaze of Naoki and Namikaze Minato, the dark substance that originally covered his legs suddenly spread all over his body.

Then white steam filled the air from Aoba's body.

At this moment, Namikaze Minato and Naoki could clearly feel Aoba's anger.

"My students are not something anyone can touch, Danzo."

With the blessing of the whole body hardening and the return of life, Aoba's figure was like a bolt of lightning, and he had already caught up with the Kumo nin before Nawaki and Namikaze Minato could react.

Naoki and Namikaze Minato saw that not far away, a group of Anbu ninjas were fighting the Kumo ninja. Kushina was caught in the hands of an Anbu ninja and was slowly moving towards the edge.

In the eyes of Naoki and Namikaze Minato, those were ANBU ninjas, but it was clear that those ninjas were not ANBU but roots.

Aoba dropped the rope tree and Namikaze Minato in his hands, and his figure flashed to the battlefield.

"Songju Aoba, we are ordered by Lord Danzo to recapture the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki from the Kumo Ninja and bring the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki back. Please help us stop this Kumo Ninja."

Seeing Aoba's appearance, the root ninjas quickly spoke.

"Tour your grandma to hide."

"Just your grandma's tail."

"She is my student, Uzumaki Kushina."

Aoba spoke one word after another, and with each sentence, a root ninja was directly punched by Aoba into blood mist and exploded.

Amid everyone's disbelieving gazes, Aoba snatched Kushina away from the root ninja and threw it to Namikaze Minato.

"Songju Aoba, are you going to betray Konoha?" A root ninja looked at the crazy Aoba, with a hint of fear in his eyes, and opened his mouth to drink.

"It's good that I didn't go to Danzo to cause trouble. As for betraying Konoha."

"As long as I kill you all, no one can prove that I did it."

The murderous aura accumulated in two lifetimes emanated from Aoba for the first time. The terrifying murderous aura made Namikaze Minato and Nawaki feel frightened, and their bodies kept trembling.

"Aoba-sensei!" Seeing that Aoba seemed to be about to attack the ninjas of Konoha, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but want to step forward and stop Aoba.

"Those are not ANBU ninjas, Minato." Looking at Namikaze Minato's movements, Naoki suppressed the trembling of his body and grabbed Namikaze Minato.

"Not an ANBU ninja?" Hearing Naoki's words, Namikaze Minato's eyes showed confusion, but he still retreated to bear Aoba's murderous intent and stopped talking.

Naoki did not recognize these root ninjas at first, and like Namikaze Minato, he regarded these root ninjas as ANBU ninjas.

But when those ninjas said Danzo's name, Naoki knew the identity of the root ninja.

Seeing Aoba's killing, Naoki began to explain to Namikaze Minato: "Those are root ninjas, not ANBU ninjas. If Kushina falls into their hands, her fate will not be much better than being taken away by Kumo ninja."

"Why?" Namikaze Minato didn't understand why Konoha, a root that he had never heard of, was described in this way by the rope tree. In Namikaze Minato's heart, Konoha was bright and there was no such darkness.

"If there is light in this world, there will be darkness. Sooner or later one day you will understand." Just when Naoki didn't know how to answer Namikaze Minato, Aoba's voice appeared in the ears of Namikaze Minato and Naoki.

Looking up, neither the Kumo ninja nor the root ninjas left any corpses, only pools of flesh and blood on the ground.

"Noseki, take care of the traces." Qingye looked at the rope and said.

"Earth Release·Earthquake Core." After hearing Qingye's words, Nao Shu formed seals with his hands as if he was already familiar with the road. The ground turned and all traces were instantly eliminated.

Looking at Naoki and Aoba, Namikaze Minato felt strange. He had never thought that Aoba-sensei, who was full of bad taste, and carefree Naoki would have such a side.

The somewhat lost Namikaze Minato held Kushina and walked towards Konoha sluggishly.

Looking at the lost Namikaze Minato, Naoki wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Aoye: "Minato is different from you. You have been exposed to these darkness very early and have become accustomed to it. He has never thought about Konoha." There will be this darkness, let him be alone.”

After hearing Aoba's words, Naoki also gave up the idea of ​​catching up with Namikaze Minato.

"Brother Aoba, the current Konoha is not the Konoha in my grandfather's mind!" Naoki did not call Mr. Aoba this time, but brother Aoba.

"So you want to become Hokage, you want to change everything, you want the goal to return to the way the first Hokage looked in his heart." Aoba said with a smile on his face, what was in Naoki's heart.

"I knew that Brother Qingye had already seen what I was thinking."

"Sister, I just thought I wanted to be Hokage, but I don't know why I wanted to be Hokage."

"Actually, Minato is more suitable to be Hokage than you. The Konoha that the first generation had in mind can no longer appear."

"Why, Brother Qingye, don't you have confidence in me?" Qingye's words made Nashu a little depressed.

"The first generation can suppress the entire ninja world with the strength of one person, so the world will develop according to his will."

"But in this day and age, no one can become a ninja like the first generation."

"Perhaps you can assist Minato to become Hokage. Minato's sunshine will illuminate the entire Konoha."

Aoba rarely had a heart-to-heart talk with someone and expressed some of his thoughts.

Hearing Aoba's words, Nasuki was silent. He didn't really want to become Hokage. He just felt that the current Konoha was not the Konoha in his grandfather's heart, and he didn't want his grandfather's hard work to be ruined.

"Think about it carefully. No matter which one of you two becomes Hokage, as a teacher, I will remove all obstacles for you."

Qingye looked at the silent rope tree, left a word, and left with moon steps.
