Naruto: Tenten is my fiancée
Chapter 40 1 vs. 3
After just one year, the war broke out again. The once largest ninja village, Konoha Village, is now in a very difficult situation. Konoha Village is now short of fighting power, and has no choice but to send out the children who just graduated this year.
When Konoha's top brass saw the statistics of the new batch of students, they all broke out in a cold sweat. The number of students enrolled this time was only one-tenth of the previous number.
The seriousness of the matter is beyond imagination. Without the replenishment of fresh blood, the decline of Konoha is only a matter of time.
"Why is this happening?"
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen asked loudly, and the others all lowered their heads and dared not answer.
In fact, everyone present knew what was going on, but no one dared to speak out.
Although Konoha has several major ninja clans, most of the ninjas come from civilian families or are orphans.
Orphans do not only appear during wartime. For a high-risk profession like ninja, it is very normal for them to die while performing their duties. A large proportion of ninjas were born as orphans.
The orphanage incident not only directly caused the loss of a large number of students, but also directly caused many civilian families to lose trust in the ninja village. If the Fourth Hokage was still alive, the problem might not be so big. After all, the Fourth Hokage was born in a civilian family and would naturally receive the support of a large number of civilian ninjas.
Now many civilian families have lost confidence in the ninja profession. They no longer send their children to ninja schools, but to ordinary schools. Even a group of people moved from Konoha to other places, such as Maple Leaf Source, which is not far from Konoha.
For most civilian ninjas, they can't learn anything in ninja schools. There are only a few basic ninjutsu, and if there is no family inheritance, then you can only learn a few things. Unless you are gifted, you will be taken in as an apprentice, such as the fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze. Ninjutsu is not something you can learn just because you want to. You need to pay a price.
Since the extremely dark roots of Konoha were exposed, those families who hoped that their children would be gifted have given up hope. They would rather their children be ordinary people than be targeted by others.
However, even if you back down, you still cannot escape the fate of being manipulated by others. Recently, children have been missing in Konoha Village one after another.
"Solve the problem of recruiting students, otherwise we can only draw from each race! Dismiss."
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that everyone had nothing to say, so he made a decision for them, and it had to be carried out.
After everyone left, the Third Hokage, who had been so majestic just now, became extremely lonely.
"I will not let Konoha perish in my hands. This is my promise and responsibility."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were deep. He vaguely remembered the scene when he was a teenager, discussing the future of Konoha with the previous Hokage.
咚咚
The knock on the door interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen's recollection. He quickly adjusted his state and turned back into the majestic Sandaime Hokage.
"Please come in!"
The person who came in was wearing a mask and was a member of Konoha's Anbu.
"Third-generation master, babies have been missing in Konoha recently. According to statistics, the number has reached 57!"
"what!"
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was furious when he heard the report. This was to cut off the roots of Konoha!
"Secret investigation. Anyone who obstructs will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!"
Feeling the determination of the Third Hokage, those who heard the order also responded with resounding force.
When he was the only one left again, Sarutobi Hiruzen walked to the window and stared at the lights of thousands of houses in Konoha in a daze.
……
The incident of lost children happened not only in Konoha Village, but also in nearby villages and gathering places.
It also happened at Maple Leaf Collection, but the bodies of the people who stole the children were already cold! The one who did it was none other than Nohara Lin who was returning home from get off work.
Ordinary people might not be able to spot it, after all, those people moved quickly and were all wearing black cloaks. But this was a former Chunin, and she had been training with Li Qing for so long that her perception became extremely sharp.
This matter was reported to the higher authorities, and finally reached Beichen Xingzi. Beichen Xingzi once gave up all the power in her hands, and even left everything to live in Konoha Village. Now that she has a son like Li Qing, Beichen Xingzi has regained her power.
Beichen Anzi took out the seal of the Great Lord Beichen. She would send a letter to the Land of Fire and Konoha Village as the Great Lord.
The identity of the group of people who stole the child was easy to identify. Nohara Lin knew from the fight that it was a team of ninjas.
I have heard about the missing children a lot recently. Nohara Lin also knew about it. She didn't regret killing those ninjas at all. But she still didn't like killing people! So, she rested at home the next day.
Nohara Lin did not go to the top of the mountain the next morning. Li Qing and Tiantian went to Nohara Lin's residence to visit her. Seeing that she looked a little listless, Li Qing smiled and teased.
"Isn't this a heroine, Miss Lin?"
"Heroine!"
After Li Qing finished speaking, Tiantian also repeated the sentence, just like repeating Ji.
"You two..."
Nohara Lin turned her head away, not wanting to pay any attention to these two bad guys who were gloating over other people's misfortune!
"whee…"
I see it every day and not only does he not restrain himself, he even laughs out loud!
"In fact, if you didn't take action at that time, I would have taken action too! You don't have to feel any psychological burden."
Hearing Li Qing's words, Nohara Lin raised her eyebrows and glared at Li Qing.
"How dare you say that!"
Li Qing smiled and said nothing. At that time, he wanted to see the results of Nohara Lin's study. Unexpectedly, the results were so impressive. Facing the encirclement, he dealt with it in no time.
Li Qing saw that Nohara Lin used the double peaks to penetrate the ears, turned around and blocked the punch and kicked the whole team to death. Those ninjas didn't even have the chance to make hand seals to get away, and even the children they were hugging were not affected at all.
After the fight, Nohara Lin realized how powerful she had become. She didn't even use any chakra, and killed all the opponents with pure physical skills. At that time, in her opinion, the postures of the opponents were all flaws.
Nohara Lin herself didn't realize that she had actually trained her whole body's strength into one. When she attacked them, the opponent's bones were broken and tendons were torn. Her strength was almost round and unified, and in terms of strength, it was not comparable to those Karami.
Moreover, she often sat beside Li Qing in meditation, and her mental strength was much stronger than before. Coupled with her long-term practice of Tai Chi, she could already sense the coming of autumn before the cicadas stir.
As for Kakashi on the battlefield, having learned Lee Sin's Twelve Forms and combined it with his telekinesis, he could almost fight with his eyes closed.
Seeing her haggard appearance, Li Qing knew that she had a nightmare last night. The damage to her mental strength would be detrimental to her future practice! So he spoke to her.
"Let me give you some relief!"
Without waiting for her to answer, Li Qing gently placed his palm on Nohara Lin's forehead, and the golden light in his palm flickered like the rhythm of his breathing.
