Konoha: My Character Card

Chapter 121 The Death List
"Master Hokage, this is the death list sent by the front line."

Namikaze Minato took a thick booklet, pinching it white between his fingers.

Too many people died in this war, and there are at least a thousand names in this booklet.

If the war continues, there will only be more and more names on the booklet.

However, Namikaze Minato had no choice.

Once a war starts, it cannot be stopped at will.

Once Konoha shows a concession, Konoha will pay a huge amount of compensation for this war in the subsequent negotiation agreement, and even cede the land of the Fire Nation.

Therefore, this war can only be won, not lost!

Namikaze Minato opened the first page of the booklet, and looked at it one by one from top to bottom.

He was extremely focused, extremely heavy.

Some of the people above were familiar to him, while some were relatively unfamiliar.

These people are of different ages, some have just graduated from ninja school, they are twelve or thirteen years old, and some have already entered old age, which should be the years of caring for their lives.

But they all sacrificed their lives for the war.

The initiator of this war was not Konoha, but Namikaze Minato felt a little bit of regret at this moment. If he could do a little better, if he could discover Orochimaru's conspiracy to defect to Konoha earlier, these people would not have sacrificed.

Even, if he held a discussion mentality at the beginning, and talked with Yunyin Village after blocking the attack of the Kingdom of Thunder, wouldn't it be where he is today.

It's a pity that Konoha's strategic advantage was too great at that time, and Namikaze Minato also wanted to teach Yunyin Village a lesson for launching the war without authorization, so he didn't take mild measures.

Namikaze Minato's eyes lingered on a name.

Moonlight blast.

At only 13 years old, he has just become Konoha's Chunin.

His Chunin status was conferred by Namikaze Minato.

Minato Namikaze vaguely remembered the scene where Hayate Moon coughed heavily and then looked apologetic when receiving the Chunin suit during the Chunin appointment ceremony.

It's a pity that such a Konoha talent withered helplessly in the war.

correct!Moonlight Gale seems to be Uzuki Xiyan's lover.

Thinking of this, Namikaze Minato's expression became a little lower again.

Uyue Xiyan is his favorite junior, and he is going to be promoted in the future. This time Sanshui is entrusted to her to lead, just to let her get used to the work of leading the team, so that her strength will improve in the future, and she will be better qualified for the position of squad leader.

How should I tell her about this?

Just as he was thinking like this, there was an urgent call from outside the door.

Yuan Shanjian walked into Hokage's office alone, and after seeing Namikaze Minato, he quickly reported the mission.

"Report to Hokage-sama, there are several Iwakage Murakami Shinobi at the northwest guard post, and there is a high possibility that they have already fallen."

"what?!"

Namikaze Minato was startled, and immediately broke away from the sadness of the death list.

"Yanyin Village sent several Junin?!"

"What about the rest?!"

"Sir Hokage, two people from the fifth class died and three survived. Uzuki Xiyan was seriously injured and is being sent to the hospital for treatment from Yuanshang Sanshui."

Hearing that Fuchigami Sansui survived, Namikaze Minato's heavy heart eased a little.

Fuchigami Sanshui is different from others. He is not a ninja from the village, but a student of a ninja school. No matter how strong he is, he is still a seven-year-old child.

Others have accepted the appointment of ninjas and become ninjas of Konoha Village, so they have the obligation and responsibility to take risks.

But the responsibility of Fuchigami Sansui was borne by him, Namikaze Minato.

Because he agreed to Sanshui's order to follow the mission.

It was also his idea to let Sanshui study in Anbu.

If Sanshui died in this mission, Namikaze Minato would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"By the way, how did you escape?"

Minakaze Minato, who had calmed down, asked.

According to what Yuan Shanjian said, facing the siege of several Iwagakushi jonin, an Anbu class should be completely wiped out.

Although it is a bit unlucky to say that, it is the truth.

"Report, thanks to the help of a Konoha ninja this time, we were able to escape from the encirclement."

"A Konoha ninja, who?"

Namikaze Minato was surprised, could it be Jonin who was performing a mission outside?
Yuan Shanjian answered truthfully.

"Moonlight Blast."

"Who?!"

Namikaze Minato was taken aback, then asked again.

Hara Yamaken looked at Namikaze Minato with a surprised expression, and said it again.

"To the fourth generation, that ninja is Moonlight Hayate!"

"Sister Xiyan, I'm sorry, I left you and ran away."

In the hospital bed, Sanshui apologized to Uyue Xiyan guiltily.

Although he ran away for the subsequent escape, running away was running away. In the eyes of Mao Yue Xiyan, he ran away from Yuanshang Sanshui without a fight.

"You were right in the first place. At that time, you only stayed to die. If you can escape back to the village and deliver the news, you will be a hero."

Uzuki Xiyan looked at Sanshui who was admitting his mistake, and comforted her.

In her eyes, the other party is just a seven-year-old child who has never even done a D-level mission. It is normal to run away without fighting in the face of a powerful enemy whose strength is too much beyond her own. It is already good if she is not scared and afraid to move up.

And the other party is the student Hokage entrusted to her to lead, and it is Uzuki Xiyan's responsibility to protect him.

Even if it is death, it is not hesitating.

"Then sister Xiyan, are you still willing to teach me?"

"Of course I would."

Uzuki Xiyan said with a smile, her face was still a little pale.

"In the future, you will be obedient and obedient like today. If I tell you to escape, you will escape. Don't disobey the order, you know?"

Sanshui blinked and shook his head, "I will protect you in the future."

"Ha, good, but you have to become a ninja first."

Maoyue Xiyan stroked Sanshui's head and said softly.

At this moment, the door of the ward was opened.

Yuan Shanjian walked in with an indescribably strange expression on his face.

"Squad leader."

"Squad leader."

Maoyue Xiyan and Yuanshang Sanshui called together.

"Ah."

Yuan Shanjian looked at the two of them, his tone hesitated a little, but he still asked.

"Xiyan, let me ask you, the Konoha ninja who rescued us today, are you sure it's Moonlight Hayate?"

"of course."

Maoyue Xiyan believed it.

"Is there any evidence?"

"evidence?"

Uzuki Xiyan was confused by the question.

But after thinking about it, she explained to Yuan Shanjian.

"First of all, Haifeng's penetrating escape cannot be faked. Secondly, I am very familiar with his secret sword technique Moon Shadow. Finally, the dance of the three suns and moons he performed is the profound meaning of the Konoha-ryu sword technique, and it is also the sword technique he has been pursuing before."

"I see."

Yuan Shanjian nodded.

"but."

Uzuki Xiyan expressed a trace of doubt in her heart.

"But what?"

"He has also changed a lot in Gale."

"Changed a lot?"

"Well, his swordsmanship is much stronger than before. The dance of the three suns and the moon, which he has not used until now, is very proficient in using it today. Moreover, I feel that he is much more mature than before."

"Is that so?"

Yuan Shanjian was thoughtful.

Sanshui on the side: .
This feeling of being tried to expose it face to face is really amazing, although you must not be able to expose it.
