Konoha's New Third Hokage

The ninja village established by the Kingdom of Thunder is named after Kumogakure because the ninja village is built among the towering mountain peaks. It is filled with clouds and mist all year round, and the ninja village seems to be hidden in the clouds and mist.This is a place carefully chosen by the Raikage Generation. The terrain is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even elite ninjas find it difficult to sneak into it.Most of the residents of the Kingdom of Thunder have brown skin, and so is the Raikage. The tall man is standing at the window, looking down at the village shrouded in clouds and mist.The first generation of Raikage is called Ai. This is not his original name. In the tradition of the Kingdom of Thunder, the name Ai has a unique meaning, symbolizing number one, leader, etc. As the leader of Kumogakure Ninja Village, he To have such a title.In his heart, this title will be passed down from generation to generation, and every generation of Raikage in the future will be named after Ai.Since he is the leader of the entire village, Ai naturally has to take on the responsibility of leading the village to prosperity. This is the dignity of the leader, and in Ai's view, it is something that cannot be abandoned.Therefore, during the meeting of the Five Shadows, he saw Hashirama bowing his head to others and begging. He couldn't help but scold Hashirama, saying that this was not the fault of the leader.If you take away this point, Ai admires this generation of Hokage. When ninja families in other countries were still struggling to survive, Hashirama united other families for the first time to discuss cooperation with the country, and then became an important military force in one fell swoop. and has its own independent status.When the news of the establishment of the Konoha Ninja Village reached the Kingdom of Thunder, Ai decided at first sight that this was the direction that the ninjas of the Kingdom of Thunder should take in the future. After a hard struggle, he finally established a cloud in the Kingdom of Thunder. The Hidden Ninja Village helped the daimyo expand the territory of the Kingdom of Thunder and gained the same status as the Konoha Ninja Village.Ai admitted in his heart that Hashirama's influence was very far-reaching. The current peace on the mainland is not unrelated to his first action. I don't know when the title of God of Ninja was crowned on the First Hokage, especially when the First Hokage captured Since the tailed beast has caused chaos in the mainland since ancient times, this title is more and more well-deserved.However, while respecting him, Ai is wary of the Konoha Ninja Village. After all, the Konoha Ninja Village still belongs to the enemy country. They have been enemies from the beginning. The more authentic the so-called Ninja God is, the more he will treat the Konoha Ninja Village. The danger in the Kingdom of Thunder is even greater.Fortunately, not long after, Hashirama announced his abdication. After inquiring about the news, it was found that Hashirama abdicated due to illness. This shows that even the god of ninja cannot escape the law of birth, old age, illness and death.Although the new second-generation Hokage Tobirama is equally powerful, he is far from his elder brother. The danger of Konoha Ninja Village has been greatly reduced, although it is still not to be underestimated, at least compared to when Hashirama was in power. , there was not so much pressure. At that time, Ai Du was considering the plan of the four-nation alliance to control the Fire Nation.After the First Hokage abdicated, the leaders of other ninja villages happened to die one after another. Ai was the only one who participated in the Five Shadows Conference and was still there. This made him feel a little sad about the uncertainty of fate. Even so, he felt that he was also very fast. We will follow in the footsteps of those people.Due to geographical reasons, the Kingdom of Thunder has always had strong folk customs and advocated force. During the unified operation that year, the enemies Ai faced were also very powerful. There were countless hidden injuries caused by years of fighting. At this time, there were no medical ninjas who were good at maintenance, so The hidden wounds cannot be cured.Just look at the Hokage and other leaders who died suddenly and suddenly, and you will know how much effort their ancestors put in for the ninja village.At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Ai called out, and then a brown-skinned man walked in from the door. His name was Da, and he was the guard who had been with Ai all year round. He seemed rough, but in fact he was smart. , has a delicate mind and is the most trusted person around Ai.Ai has decided in his heart that after his death in the future, Tatsu will succeed him as the second generation head of Kumogakure Ninja Village. He believes that Tatsu can make the village move in a better direction. "Da, what's the matter?" Ai asked. "Lord Raikage, we just received the news from the capital. The daimyo rejected our request and asked us to immediately prepare a plan to attack the Fire Country." Tatsu said, "The daimyo hopes that before the position of the new king of the Fire Country is stable, , and launched an attack on the other party, forcing the Fire Country to cede part of its land." Ai knew that the Fire Country had recently changed a monarch, and he had a premonition that the Daimyo might make some moves, but he did not expect that the other party would directly attack the Fire Country. He felt that it was not the right time to launch an attack, so he asked the daimyo to postpone it. However, the daimyo refused and asked them to formulate an action plan immediately.Seeing Ai frowning, Tatsu continued: "The Golden Horn and Silver Horn brothers also know about this matter. They told me that they firmly support the Daimyo's resolution and will take the initiative to propose it in the next meeting. Raikage Sir, it seems there is no way to refuse." "Indeed." Ai sighed lightly.Golden Horn and Silver Horn are masters in the Kumogakure Ninja Village and have high prestige in the village. It is said that they are descendants of the Six Paths Sage. After they swallowed the flesh and blood of the Nine-Tails, not only did they not die, but they also gained the power of the Nine-Tails. It further confirms this rumor. If you are not a descendant of the Six Paths Sage, how can you adapt to the power of the tailed beast? Because of this, the prestige of the Golden Horn and the Silver Horn is very close to that of Ai, who is the leader of the village. Ai has to consider the two people. Opinion, because the people in the Kumogakure ninja village advocate strength, there are many warring factions, hoping to encroach on other countries' territories as before. Presumably, they will not refuse the daimyo's request. They have already experienced the conclusion of the Five Kage Agreement. Dissatisfied voices.The reason why Ai wants to refuse is not because he is afraid of the Fire Country, but because he thinks that the village is not prepared enough, and there is not enough logistical guarantee to launch a war rashly. The funds that the second Hokage Tobirama took away have not been replenished yet. , cannot support a long war.But with the daimyo's firm request, and the announcement of Golden Horn and Silver Horn's support, Ai thought about it, and it seemed that he could only decide to launch a war against the Fire Country immediately.Ai is also a cheerful person. After deciding to take action in his heart, other thoughts have been put aside, only what kind of battle plan to adopt.After the establishment of Kumogakure Ninja Village, Ai made unremitting efforts to integrate the ninja families in the village, established the authority of "Ai" and unified the entire village under the name of "Ai".On the other hand, the person who contributed to the development of the village was Da. This man was actually also an innovative person.Through the traditional customs of the Kingdom of Thunder and the characteristics of Thunder Escape, Tatsu developed swordsmanship and physical skills one after another. The secret technique that Ai is most praised for is the secret technique called Thunder Escape Chakra Mode.Methods of strengthening the body with thunder-type chakra have existed since ancient times, but this is the first time that a secret technique like the Thunder Chakra Mode combines offense and defense.The only drawback is that this secret technique has too high physical requirements and cannot be used by ordinary people for a long time. Da admitted that he customized it based on the physical strength of his disciples. Ai also knew the young man's strong physical strength. , I believe this secret technique can be carried forward in that young man.Recently, Tatsu is trying to train jinchūriki so that they can play a role in the war. Unfortunately, the Kingdom of Thunder does not have a jinchūriki comparable to Mito. Not to mention using the power of tailed beasts, they themselves are He is still suffering from the mental impact caused by the tailed beast seal, and he will go berserk if he is not careful.If it takes longer, Tatsu may have better results, but now we can't count on the power of the jinchūriki, we can only rely on the Kumogakure Ninja Village itself.When Ai was thinking about the battle plan, he couldn't help but think of the Five Kage Agreement signed a year ago. He didn't expect it to be torn up so soon. However, the First Hokage himself knew it well and knew that this agreement would become invalid at any time, so , so don’t blame them.After all, we are all ninjas. We have to obey the orders of our employer. Our own will is meaningless, right? Even if you are Senju Hashirama, when the Daimyo of the Land of Fire asks you to go out, can you still refuse the other party's request? As the leader of the Ninja Village, the only thing I have to do is to obey the orders of the Daimyo, show the value of the Ninja Village, and make the Daimyo rely more on the Ninja Village. Both sides will benefit from each other. This will be my last battle.Ai thought silently in his heart.
