Konoha's New Third Hokage

Chapter 271 Defending the City

Hiruzaru Sarutobi walked behind the group, turned his head to look at the burning forest, they were already far away from there, but they could still see the flames soaring into the sky.The reason why he chose to set fire to the mountain was that he hoped to stop the footsteps of the Kirigakure ninja tribe. Whether he chose to use the water escape to open a path or take a detour, he could buy enough time for Sarutobi Hiruzabu.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has already given up the entire Uzumaki country in his heart, and its people will move to the vicinity of Konoha Ninja Village. Therefore, the environment here has nothing to do with him, so he can live without psychological pressure. Directly set the entire forest on fire without having to worry about the consequences.

Looking at his followers, he saw that their faces were tired after the war, joyful of victory, and longing for the future. There is no doubt that the victory of this battle greatly encouraged everyone's confidence. Such a small number of people can block the opponent's attack, no matter where it is placed, it is an impressive record.

Of course, if you calculate the losses of this battle in detail, you will find that the losses of both sides are not very big, but the greatest value of this battle is the impact on each other's mental state. One side feels hope and has the courage to continue fighting, while the enemy The army was frustrated and demoralized.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is also experienced in the battle formation, he doesn't need anyone to investigate, he can know what kind of decision Kirigakure ninja will make, because the situation is very clear, if the other party really violates common sense, dare to If he catches up, he will make the other party understand what mistake he made.

"Let's go, the delay is only for a while, and the war will not end so easily." Sarutobi Hiruzen greeted his followers, and led them to the capital of the Uzumaki Kingdom, as long as he did not lead the people away one day He couldn't let go of the country of the vortex.

To be honest, Hiruzaru Sarutobi felt very tired after fighting so far, and there were so many enemies, it took a lot of hard work to maintain the situation in this situation.It can be seen that Masaki Fengmori's choice is still very correct. If it is a solo fight, Hiruza Sarutobi's peers will not be far behind-except for Masaki Fengmori whose strength is not very clear now-but, The one who is most suitable for fighting in Uzumaki Country is indeed Hiruzaru Sarutobi himself.

"Zhenghui, when I go back, you have to give me a satisfying reward, otherwise I'll be nagging, no matter how hard I work, I've done a lot of hard work." Hiruzaru Sarutobi couldn't help but muttered.

After a while, Hiruzaru Sarutobi finally arrived in front of the capital. Because of the outbreak of war, the entire capital was very nervous. When they saw Hiruzaru Sarutobi appear, they subconsciously thought they were enemies, so the guards of the city wall The army, like a frightened bird, took up weapons and prepared to fight.

Fortunately, someone proved the identity of Hiruzaru Sarutobi's tribe, so the ridiculous actions stopped just now. Hiruzaru Sarutobi led people into the capital, went to the room to rest immediately, and took off the black armor on his body. The muscles all over his body felt sore, and he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not injured, but the fatigue caused by successive battles and the large amount of chakra consumption made his physical condition not very good, so he called the medical ninja over, and with the green light on, Sarutobi Hiruzen Zhan felt the sore muscles slowly relax.

While receiving treatment from the medical ninja, Hiruzaru Sarutobi called the ninja who was in charge of the contact and asked about the situation of the large army. He learned that because of the blockade of the Kirigakure ninja village, he could not break through for the time being, and he could not go to the coast of the Uzumaki country immediately. He suddenly felt a headache.

"So, we still have to stick to it for a while." Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Damn it, I don't know how many troops they will invest in the future. I hope that the previous battle can make them use their weapons."

"There is good news, Sarutobi-sama, the reinforcements in the village have arrived at the coast defense line and are ready to join the war at any time." The contact ninja said happily, "The Kirigakure ninja village is probably still gathering, they I didn’t expect that we had already formulated a plan to protect the country of Uzumaki, and all actions were a step slower. I believe that the blockade of Kirigakure Ninja Village will soon be broken by our people.”

"That would be great. As long as you are one step faster than others in the war, it means you can occupy more advantages. Our performance proves this." Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled slightly.

After learning the latest information, Hiruzaru Sarutobi was in a very good mood. The reinforcements of Konoha Ninja Village were ready, and no matter how fast Kirigakure Ninja Village responded, it would take time to gather their strength. Danzo must also be aware of this and hold back the third Mizukage.

As long as the ship arrives at the coast and sends all the people of the Uzumaki Kingdom up, Hiruzen Sarutobi can leave this place. Originally, it was just to send the Uzumaki family away, which is very easy, after all, their population is only over a hundred people , but counting the ordinary people of the Vortex Country, the number is relatively large, and the pressure on delivery is also relatively high.

As the head of the five major ninja villages, Konoha Ninja Village is not only in strength, but also far surpasses other ninja villages in reputation, making many small countries willing to cooperate with it, and even countries that cooperate with other ninja villages secretly cooperate with Muye Ye Ninja Village has a connection, which is a good result brought about by Feng Mori Masaki's consistent morality.

For the purpose of maintaining the reputation of Konoha Ninja Village, Konoha Ninja Village must take away ordinary people. If they are left in the country of Uzumaki, it is conceivable that the enemy army failed to destroy the Uzumaki family, and what would be their anger? At that time, the reputation of Konoha Ninja Village will be severely damaged, and other small countries will become wary of Konoha Ninja Village.

Fortunately, the country of Uzumaki is only a small country, and it still belongs to the kind of population that is relatively small, and Konoha Ninja Village is just in a period of rapid development, and there is a shortage of people. These people are enough to meet the needs of Konoha Ninja Village, so after discussion, the high-level We all agree with this move.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi took a puff of cigarette lightly, just like his second son Asma in later generations, Hiruzaru Sarutobi himself is also an old smoker, smoke can relieve his mental pressure so that he will not be unbearable, his strength No matter how powerful it is, it may not be able to surpass ordinary people psychologically.

After smoking all the cigarettes, Hiruzaru Sarutobi let out a long breath, got up and started to prepare defensive measures. First of all, he went to meet the daimyo of Uzumaki Country.He had met this person when he first came to the country of vortex. At that time, the daimyo of the country of vortex still reluctantly accepted his intention of coming, but now the daimyo of the country of vortex looks regretful. Hiruzaru Sarutobi sighed many times, saying that he should have understood earlier.

Regarding this, Hiruzaru Sarutobi just said in his heart, if he knew what was going on, why bother, if he had agreed to the conditions of Konoha Ninja Village early, he would not have fallen to the point where he is now going away.Although this may be a favorable result for Konoha Ninja Village, after all, putting military power on a small country far away from the mainland for a long time will put a lot of pressure on the village, so it is better to directly include it in the village.

Even though he thought so in his heart, Hiruzaru Sarutobi still wanted to comfort the daimyo of Uzumaki, and promised that he would enjoy the treatment he deserved when he came to Konoha Ninja Village.Of course, the daimyo of the country of Uzumaki must also learn to adapt to the life of Konoha Ninja Village. If not, he can leave Konoha Ninja Village and go to the capital of the country of fire. The daimyo of the country is also related to Konoha Ninja Village.

The Uzumaki Daimyo said that he would think about it carefully, and then carefully asked when the pick-up ship would arrive, and what would happen if the enemy army attacked before then.

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave him a guarantee, saying that the ship would arrive soon, and if the enemy army came, then Sarutobi Hiruzen would personally protect the safety of the capital, so that Uzumaki no Daimyo would have to worry.

The daimyo of Uzumaki was finally relieved when he got the guarantee from Sarutobi Hiruzen. After much deliberation, he handed over the defense rights of the entire capital to Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was fully responsible for Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Sarutobi Hiruzen readily accepted. He didn't even mean to refuse. To put it bluntly, he is the only person that the country of vortex can rely on now. If we don't gather the power of the country of vortex and let them hold each other back, what's the matter?

Before Hiruzen Sarutobi came to the country of Uzumaki, Masaki Kazemori told him that to find an opportunity to gather the power of the country of Uzumaki, there is no need to take their emotions into account. Compromise, even if the emotions are repeated later, these dissatisfaction will disappear after coming to Konoha Ninja Village.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has the military power of the entire capital, so he arranged the defenders at key positions on the city wall according to his own experience, and then let his troops and Uzumaki ninjas be placed among the troops in batches according to their abilities. Let's talk about the tactics in detail It's nothing unusual. In this kind of defensive battle, it doesn't matter any tricks, what is needed is the right way.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sent people to investigate the movements of Kirigakure Ninja Village, and at the same time sent people to collect information to see when the reinforcements from the village would arrive.In less than three days, the army of the country of water and the ninja village of Kirigakure had been reorganized, and they came to the capital in a mighty way.

Along the way, Guideng Lengyue has realized that Hiruzaru Sarutobi and others have brought all the people to the capital. No matter what his intentions are, the capital now contains the entire population and power of Uzumaki. It's not easy to win, but as long as it breaks through, the Vortex Country can be wiped out.

However, can this be achieved? It is impossible for Hiruzaru Sarutobi not to have thought of the risks involved, but still take such measures, there must be some confidence behind it.

Even so, Guideng Lengyue will not back down just like that, just as he said to the Kirigakure ninja, this war has reached this point, if you win it’s okay, if you lose, no one will understand you Difficulties will only be reprimanded for your helplessness and then punished. The only thing that can be avoided is victory, no matter how high the price is!

Therefore, the attack of the country of water did not spare any effort. In these days, Akira and Jinchuriki of the Three Tails recovered more than half of their injuries, and they could return to the war.Even the barrier of the Uzumaki family would not last long in front of the Tailed Beast Jade of the Three-Tailed Jinchuriki, but he did not expect that Hiruzaru Sarutobi still retained the Five Elements Dalian Ammo that was not inferior to the Tailed Beast Jade, and was competing with other With the cooperation of the human, he actually directly blocked the attack of the tailed beast jade.

"Compound Ninja Five Elements Dalian Bullet." With a loud shout, each of the five Sarutobi Hiruzen used a kind of escape technique, and the five escape techniques with different attributes collided once, causing five explosions in succession. It will make its tactics emit a strong beam of light. When the fifth time is over, its power is not inferior to the Tailed Beast Jade of the strategic-level weapon Tailed Beast.

Colliding with the Tailed Beast Jade released by the Three-Tails Jinzhuli, they burst out with more intense light, almost blinding people's eyes, and the huge shock wave sent people couldn't stabilize their bodies. It's not a big problem for the protection of the water country, but the army of the country of water outside is different.

Ghost Lantern Lengyue made people use the water wall to weaken the impact of the shock wave, but it still made the army formation a little chaotic. Tailed Beast Jade did not play its due role.

The ground between the city wall of the capital and the army of the country of water seemed to have been dug out a large piece, the smoke and dust slowly fell, and the ghost lamp Lengyue's heart seemed to be the same.Because the three-tailed jinchuriki could not control himself, the tailed beast chakra was forcibly suppressed, so that the three-tailed jinchuriki could no longer be used.

The current renzhu power of Kirigakure Ninja Village is not very stable, and he can only use the tailed beast jade three times. If he is completely transformed into a tailed beast, he does not need to worry about the number of times he can use the tailed beast jade, but he and others will probably be killed by him in that way. Mitsuo who ran away was given a severe lesson, he really didn't expect Hiruzaru Sarutobi to have such a level of power.

Guideng Lengyue's face was a little pale, if Hiruzaru Sarutobi had used this move in that battle, he and Aki would have been dead. He could imagine why the other party didn't use this kind of power, so he was glad One's own luck, and at the same time, the mood of getting rid of it and making it fast.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is too dangerous, his role is no less than the strategic value of Tailed Beast, and he must not be allowed to leave here.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen has the same power as the Tailed Beast, but his Chakra is definitely not as much as the Tailed Beast. If he blocks the Tailed Beast three times in a row, how far will his Chakra be reduced?

Guideng Lengyue felt that this was the best time, and quickly ordered his troops to attack the city wall, and the defenders on the city wall also began to fight back, and a big battle broke out at this moment.

However, Ghost Leng Yue probably would not have imagined that Hiruzen Sarutobi was not as weak as he imagined. He was behind the city wall with a special ninja tool in front of him. After absorbing it, he said with a tut: "The scientific research department really came up with something good. Although the storage efficiency of this thing is not very high, and the chakra storage is limited, it is still very useful at critical times."
