Konoha: After Retirement, Namikaze Minato Begged Me To Come Out

some time ago.

The center of Konoha.

The huge orange demon fox was still wreaking havoc.

But compared to just now, Nine Tails looked a little aggrieved at this moment.

Fireballs, lightning, and wind blades filled the sky... overwhelmingly submerging every inch of Nine Tails' body.

Led by a group of Konoha elite ninjas.

The Konoha Shinobi began to join forces to bombard Nine Tails with ninjutsu, which also made Nine Tails seem to be gradually being suppressed.

"That's it! Well done!!!"

The scene in front of him made Inuzuka Oichi, one of Konoha's Elite Jōnin, shout excitedly.

But Nara Shikamichi, who was beside him, had no joy at all on his face. Instead, he showed a worried expression.

Due to Hokage's absence.

At this moment, Nara Shikamichi was forced to take over the leadership position.

Different from the simpler-minded "Inuzuka clan".

The Nara clan has always been known as the "most powerful brain" in Konoha.

Therefore, Nara Shikamichi took command, and all the Konoha ninja had no objections.

From a situation perspective.

At first glance, at this moment, the Konoha ninjas firmly had the upper hand by virtue of their strength and numbers.

But be aware.

Ninja's Chakra is limited.

Until now, no arrowhead figure has appeared in Konoha to cause substantial damage to Nine Tails.

I'm afraid it won't be long before Konoha's continuous offensive fails to keep up, giving Nine Tails a chance to breathe.

Then Nine Tails will launch a brutal counterattack.

And that was the moment when Konoha's front collapsed.

.....................

Although Nara Shikamichi has already foreseen the next ending.

But he still could only remain silent.

Nothing else.

Even if Nara Shikami expresses his thoughts, it will still have no effect.

On the contrary, it will spread negative and pessimistic emotions and affect the morale of Konoha.

In the face of absolute power, Nara Shikamichi can only be regarded as a slightly "smarter ant" at best.

It was the only thing he could do at this moment.

Just pray that Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato can come soon.

Another moment passed.

as expected.

The wave of attacks by Konoha's ninjas began to show signs of decline.

Most Chūnin and even some Jōnin began to suffer from Chakra deficiency.

Nine Tails, who was originally unable to stand up straight under the weight of the intensive attacks, slowly began to stand up bit by bit against the gradually weakening wave of attacks.

For all this.

Nara Shidao saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart.

At this moment, several young voices in the distance reached Lu Dao's ears.

"Shikamichi-sama, we are here to help!!!"

Hearing the sound, Lu Dao immediately had a bad premonition in his heart.

He quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound.

He saw dozens of young ninjas rushing toward him.

The young ninjas at the head were all faces familiar to Nara Shikamichi.

Hatake Kakashi, Yuhi Hong, Might Guy, Yamanaka Haiichi......

And among the ranks of this "youth army", there is also Shikachi's own son - Nara Shikaku!

These young ninjas are either talented people or the next generation of various ninja clans in Konoha.

Although many of them have advanced to Jōnin, their talent potential has not yet been fully realized.

Therefore, during this turmoil, these young ninjas, together with Konoha's Genin, were arranged to be isolated in a safe area, and were the key protection objects of the village.

Seeing these "seeds" of Konoha's future entering danger.

Nara Shidao immediately said angrily.

"Nonsense!!!"

"Who asked you to come here?!"

Faced with Nara Shikamichi's reprimand, Kakashi and others remained firm and indifferent.

At this time, it was Yuhi Hong, a woman, who stepped forward and spoke resolutely.

"Lord Shikamichi!"

"As a member of Konoha, we also have the obligation to protect our homeland!"

"We are ninjas, why not let us go to the battlefield!"

Looking at the pretty and resolute profile of the girl Yuhi Hong, Shikamichi couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, although his face was still full of anger.

"Zhenhong gave birth to a good daughter......"

Although deep in Lu Dao's heart, he was deeply moved by the appearance of the "Youth Army".

But with Lu Dao's maturity, it is certainly impossible to allow these young people to continue taking risks.

Even if these "old guys" were completely wiped out here.

As long as these "seeds" are present, Konoha will be reborn sooner or later.

All this confirms Konoha's village building philosophy - where there are leaves flying, there is fire burning.

But if all these seeds are folded here.

The inheritance of Konoha is considered to have been discontinued.

This is something that the entire top management of Konoha will never allow to happen.

............................

Also, let’s look at it from another perspective.

Deal with "natural disaster" level enemies like Nine Tails.

A few more people or a few fewer people will not have much impact at all.

Unless there is a "Kage-level" strong man who can influence the situation by himself.

Otherwise, with the combat power of these "youth army", even if they join, it will only be a drop in the bucket.

Perhaps one day in the future, one of these "youth troops" will be able to grow up enough to stand alone against Nine Tails.

But not now.

At this moment, Nara Shikami glanced at the young ninjas in front of him.

His eyes quickly picked out his son with evasive eyes——Nara Shikaku.
