Konoha's West Gate Official

The atmosphere in the Konoha Building conference room was quite solemn, as many high-level officials in the village gathered together to discuss important matters.

The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was in the first place. He put the battle report in his hand on the table and said with a serious face: "Konoha suffered a lot of damage during the battle with Kumogakure during this period, and the enemy's offensive became more and more fierce. , we must come up with countermeasures as soon as possible.”

After hearing this, the village's senior adviser Mito Monen said he immediately expressed his opinion: "The top priority is to make up for the lack of military strength and dispatch more ninjas to the front line."

Then another consultant moved to Xiaoharu and nodded: "Yes, although Konoha's military strength is not sufficient, it should not be a problem to deploy another two thousand ninjas."

At this time, a young man with a solemn expression said: "In more cases, what really determines the outcome of a war is the top-level combat power.

Now that Orochimaru-senpai has been seriously injured, in addition to adding more troops, the most important thing is to add top-notch combat power. "

This person is now the captain of the Konoha Police Force, Uchiha Fugaku.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked on his pipe and said: "Fugaku is right, I have sent people to find Tsunade, and I should be able to return to the village in the next few days.

However, now the village is fighting on two fronts, and some troops must be left to guard against Sunagakure and Kirigakure. Therefore, sending ninja troops to the northern battlefield requires the support of the Uchiha and Hyuga families. "

Hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku and Hinata Hinashi on the side couldn't help but flash their eyes. After thinking for a while, they nodded and agreed...

A few days later, an army of more than two thousand ninjas was assembled. Most of them came from various ninja families and were very powerful.

At the same time, in the Hokage's office, a figure pushed open the door, sat down on a stool and said, "Old man, you are so anxious to ask me to come here, can't you hold on?"

This is a woman with a strong figure and beautiful appearance. She is wearing a green coat and a beautiful yellow ponytail. She looks very bold.

She is Tsunade, the only woman among the famous Sannin.

Seeing his arrival, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Orochimaru was seriously injured and someone must take his place. Since Jiraiya and Minato are both here, you are the most suitable person."

Hearing this, Tsunade sighed softly: "If it weren't for the helplessness, I really don't want to return to the battlefield."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Whether it is the First Master or the Nezuki, they all sacrificed for the village. Protecting Konoha is the best comfort for them."

Tsunade nodded after hearing this: "Okay, but I am only responsible for healing Orochimaru. I will not take action unless it is necessary."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "The past must pass, and Konoha needs you now."

Tsunade shook her head and said: "It's not that I don't want to do it, but since that war, I have developed a fear of blood. If I stay on the battlefield for a long time, I will probably be in a very bad state. .”

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, but he did not expect this situation, but there was nothing he could do about it.

After thinking for a while, he could only nod his head and said: "Kumogakure's Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki has also retreated from the battlefield. As long as Orochimaru can recover, it shouldn't be a problem."

"If nothing happens, I'll leave first."

As she spoke, Tsunade was about to get up and leave.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Wait a minute, there is something else you need to do."

"what's up?"

Feeling turned around and asked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out an information form from the desk, handed it to the other party and said: "There are a few children who graduated early and will also participate in this battle. It's up to you to take them."

Tsunade raised her hand to take it, looked it over and said, "I didn't expect you, old man, to be willing to send your own son to the battlefield."

The corner of Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth twitched when he heard this, but he didn't say much on this issue, and then continued: "Of these three children, one needs your special attention."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I know, it's Asuma, I'll take care of you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said, "It's not Asuma, it's Namikaze Simon."

Tsunade's expression changed when she heard this, and she focused her eyes on the photo of the handsome blond boy: "This seems to be Namikaze Minato's younger brother, he's quite handsome."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Although this little guy Ximen is not old, his talent is frighteningly high. He has even learned the art of Flying Thunder God."

"Flying Thunder God!"

Tsunade's beautiful eyes flickered, and she was also shocked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "This is a good seedling, and his future achievements will not be inferior to Minato. I hope you can teach him well and become a inheritor of the will of fire."

Tsunade raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "No problem, but it's not easy to become my disciple. You have to pass the test first."

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not refuse this request. He nodded and said, "I will give you half a day. When everything is ready, you must rush to the front line immediately."

"understood."

After responding, Tsunade left without looking back.

After he left, a figure in black clothes walked out of the side room with an expressionless face and a cold and sinister look in his eyes.

"Hiruzen, the best choice is to hand over Namikaze Simon to Genbu. I will train him to be the fastest sword!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen also became serious and said: "Duanzo, Ximen is not an ordinary child. Behind him stands the youngest Kage-level powerhouse and the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, who cannot move."

Danzo said coldly: "As a member of the village, you should have the consciousness to give everything. If Namikaze Minato holds a grudge because of this, it will only prove that he is not loyal enough at all."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "This matter has been decided, no need to say more."

Seeing that he didn't need to follow his own advice, Danzo also frowned: "The stronger the ability, the greater the threat. We cannot deliberately indulge in power that we cannot control. We..."

"okay!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked on the table to interrupt the other party's words, and said extremely seriously: "I am the Hokage!"

Danzo's mouth was blocked with one sentence, and he clenched his fists. Although he was the leader of the root, he could not refute the Hokage's determination, so he could only say angrily: "Hiruzhan, you will regret it!"

After saying that, he left here filled with anger.

Sarutobi Hiruzen secretly shook his head: "He knows this old partner too well. Although he is decisive and ruthless in his actions and quite dignified, he is too extreme and self-centered, and is narrow-minded and has no tolerance for others.

It is precisely for this reason that the second generation passed the position of Hokage to himself..."
