Konoha: A golden flash from the tomb

After using a scroll to temporarily seal the seven tails of the eight-tailed Gyuuki that were used as substitutes, Minato, who escaped in a flash, returned to the location of the Four Purple Flame Formation.

At this moment, the dust on the battlefield has settled. The four shadow clones responsible for supporting the barrier turned into smoke and disappeared with a bang, and the mess inside was also exposed to sight.

Most of the tragic traces on the battlefield came from Minato's ten-second carpet-like Tailed Beast Jade Cleansing. The Konoha ninjas who subsequently strangled the remaining enemies did not have the Nine-Tails chakra to squander, and even the ninjutsu used by the Jonin was difficult to defeat. A more vivid wound on this scarred earth.

Not a single one of the five thousand Kumo ninjas survived. Death in the hands of Konoha was their only fate in this battle. However, even though they had been beaten by Minato in a way that could be called a massacre and their will was broken and they had no fighting spirit, their numbers were overwhelming. There it is.

More than [-] Konoha ninjas faced off against [-] Kumo ninjas. Even if those people were [-] pigs, they were not that easy to kill.

Moreover, because they saw that all escape routes were blocked by the Four Purple Flame Formation, they woke up at the last moment and caused considerable casualties to the Konoha ninjas. However, at that time, the Kumo ninja who could not even maintain their formation and coordination were still killed by the Konoha ninja. Ye's ninjas destroyed the last remaining resistance.

With 380 seven people dying in glorious battle, Konoha's desperate army completely wiped out all remaining viable forces of the Kumo ninja on this battlefield.

But after the battle was completed, the Konoha ninjas who simply bandaged their wounds supported their seriously injured bodies and silently walked to Minato, even though some of them had broken their arms in the previous battle, or even lost one. The tragic injuries on their legs meant that they needed the help of their comrades to even stand, but they still staggered and persisted and did not want to fall.

Their eyes were fierce and bright. The loss of blood made their bodies weak, but it polished their wills even tougher, like polished and luxurious gems. Even if they just looked at it from a distance, You can all see the dazzling light emanating from them.

"Perhaps you have been unhappy in your heart. Just because of the four people, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Mito Katoen, and Koharu, you as clan members have also been burdened with the infamy of betraying the heroes of Konoha."

"But I don't think the judgment made by the Nidaime is wrong. A person's life is just to make a name for himself during his lifetime. Every ninja in Konoha is willing to risk his own life and fight against the enemy on the battlefield just to protect them. Konoha behind them, protecting their home."

"Their wives and children are all in the village, and their friends and tribesmen are all in the village. It is precisely because of their risking their lives fighting on the border that the village can enjoy peace and their children can be safe and healthy. growing up."

"Every hero is great, so we cannot allow anyone to dare to touch this bottom line, this rule that has never changed in Konoha since the founding of the village. This is a dead rule, and there is absolutely no room for bargaining."

"Once this line is trampled on casually, Konoha Village will not be far from falling apart."

"Then why do you, the tribesmen, need to be implicated in these crimes that were clearly committed by them?"

"The Ninja clan is a small family, and Konoha is a big family. There are big and small families, but the truth is not big or small. Sharing honor and disgrace is a prerequisite for becoming a family. Each of you has enjoyed the privileges of the four of you when you are in a high position. As for the dividends, they must also share the responsibility for their wrong practices."

"There are a total of 670 nine ninjas from your four clans, including 140 and 330 special jounin, 190 and [-] chunin, and [-] and eight genin."

"After experiencing the Third Ninja War with heavy casualties, why did you four tribes still retain so many middle- and high-level forces at the end of the war?"

"With 140 six jounin, the Uchiha of Konoha's powerful clan can only manage to come up with them now. Even if the Uchiha suffered heavy casualties in the war, their number of clan members is still more than three times the total population of your four clans."

"I don't deny your bravery, but I also don't deny the nastiness in it."

"However, the matter ends here. There are no longer Sarutobi, Shimura, Mito, and the four clans in Konoha. Their names were cut off by the second generation in order to become ninjas, and the village changed their residences for them. Without money, it is their own choice whether to stay in Konoha or not. The village is big enough and the world is big enough for them to start a new life in a new place without the past."

"Lord Tobirama has given you the right to fight to the death without returning, and has given you the privilege of being included in Konoha's Heroes' Tomb after your heroic death."

"I declare that all the ninjas of the four tribes will fight to the death for Konoha and never return. The names of the four tribes will no longer exist, but their heroic souls will remain with Konoha forever."

"I promise you Konoha ninjas that if you are willing to disarm and return to the fields, Namikaze Minato will never stop you. If you are willing to continue to fight with me on the battlefield in the name of Konoha, I will be with you life and death."

"Those who are willing to become my personal guard ANBU, step forward. The remaining people, as long as they no longer use the name of Konoha, the world is so big that you can go freely. They have all died fighting for Konoha. Angelica Cemetery Rest in peace.”

All four clans of ninjas will fight to the death for Konoha and never return. This is Minato's promise to them. Their previous bravery has proven that they are definitely not Konoha traitors like Hiruzen and Danzo, but Minato also provides them with new choices.

Or abandon the past, abandon everything as a ninja, and live the rest of their lives incognito. Their previous deadly battle has made their sins atone and their responsibilities paid. They don't owe Konoha anything.

Or abandon the past, follow him on the battlefield as the fourth generation Hokage's bodyguard, and use a brand new self to earn honors and merits from the battlefield with both hands, gaining their own glory and glory.

This is another choice, a new choice that determines your future destiny.

"My hand is broken and my foot is gone."

Someone raised his bloody face and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Then add a stronger hand, add a faster leg, heal your injury, and then stand behind me."

"I stayed."

He released his remaining arm from his comrade, gritted his teeth, jumped forward, and froze on the ground like he was rooted to the ground.

Then came the second and third ones. Many people took steps. They were not willing to be reduced to ordinary people from now on. They came here to participate in this decisive battle with the determination to die. They were never afraid of death. What they were afraid of was comparison. Death is even more terrible, the sinking that no one cares about.

They hope that after they truly die, people can see their names on the commemorative monument and see their glorious lives, instead of turning into a handful of unknown bones in an obscure place.

After becoming ninjas, their lives as ninjas were incompatible with ordinary life.

"From now on, you will walk in the world in the name of Konoha, and in the name of my Namikaze Minato guard ANBU, so that the world can see your achievements and glory."

"Bandage the wounds, clean up the battlefield, and then we will send the seven heroes of Konoha 640 home."

Hundreds of shadow clones were summoned by Minato. The green light of Palm Senjutsu and the chakra of Nine Tails stopped the blood and healed the wounds, so that there would be no more new drops of blood in this land that had been soaked in blood. fall.
