Naruto Big Draw

On June 15th, in the middle of the month, the third day after Kanaten returned to the village, the Sandaime Mizukage issued a summons order to all the jounin who stayed at the headquarters.

This was a sign that the headquarters was about to make big moves. When Kannaten arrived at the venue, he saw many jounin who were familiar or unfamiliar, divided into small circles and chatting in low voices.

A rough count showed that there were sixty or seventy people, which was already more than half of the jounin in Kirigakure Village.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen and the Watermelon Mountain Blowfish Demon were absent and sitting in the corner of the hall, watching the lively scene in front of them indifferently. They did not participate in the conversations of other ninjas, and did not welcome outsiders to chat with them. They seemed aloof and unruly, even if they noticed it. When Kannaitian arrived, most people didn't react at all, as if they saw cats and dogs while walking, they didn't care at all.

Only Ghost Light Qianren nodded to Kannaitian, and Kannaitian smiled back.

Not long after, the Sandaime Mizukage finally appeared. He rarely put on the ninja uniform of Kirigakure Village. With his eyes closed, he came to the rostrum in the hall, accompanied by Mizukage's assistant, Kanna Tokiomi.

"Everyone, our war is about to begin."

As soon as he came up, the Sandaime said these words, which caused a sensation in the venue.

"According to credible intelligence, Konoha Village is about to launch war mobilization and launch a full-scale war against Yunyin Village..."

As the Sandaime explained, some staff began to issue manuals to the jounin.

Kannaten also received a book, which detailed relevant intelligence matters and Kirigakure Village's analysis of the matter.

It turned out that three days ago, the armies of Yunyin Village and Konoha Village fought in the Forest of Death. The two sides continued to increase their troops, and finally formed a melee with a thousand-man level. The battle ended with the victory of Yunyin Village. Immediately afterwards, Yun Yin Village Hidden Village brazenly shouted slogans that shocked the world.

Vow to defeat Konoha Village and bring the Death Forest under the rule of the Kingdom of Thunder

This was the slogan, and the Cloud Hidden Village did the same. They began to station themselves in the Death Forest, and continuously mobilized military supplies from the country, trying to have a vigorous away battle with the Konoha Village.

Fighting away from home means inconvenient intelligence collection, inconvenient collection of materials, inconvenient transportation of medical drugs, inconvenient mobilization of personnel...etc., etc., there are too many disadvantages, and Konoha Village is just the opposite. These projects are all is their advantage.

Due to the large gap between the enemy's and our own's strengths and weaknesses, Cloud Hidden Village could either choose to defeat Konoha Village in one go, or it could only shift its strategic goals.

Why? Because the real strategic need of Cloud Hidden Village is not to occupy the land of the Land of Fire as the slogan calls out, but to consume the ninja power of Konoha Village. Its ultimate purpose is to force Konoha to seek Kazuo even admitted defeat, which was also the usual outcome of all the ninja wars in the past.

Do ninjas need land? Of course they don’t need ninjas’ economic income. It’s more than enough by doing tasks. Even if they are allocated land, do they still have time and energy to farm? The world is vast and sparsely populated. If there is such a field in the real estate industry, it will be impossible. In the recession, to put it bluntly, the common people are still living in dire straits and have no money left to buy real estate.

Ninjas are a branch of the military and are not responsible for production.

Therefore, even if the Fire Country is willing to cede territory, it is still a matter of debate whether the Thunder Country is willing to take it back.

After the Uzumaki Village was wiped out, the major forces immediately withdrew their troops. As for the land of the Uzumaki Country, no one looked at it twice. Why, because they were ninjas, it was useless to ask for the land.

This war manual highlights this incredible slogan from Yunyin Village, and a long analysis is attached below.

"Cloud Hidden Village's capture of the Death Forest means that Konoha Village's first line of defense has been broken. Cloud Hidden Village has achieved its initial strategic needs and intends to obtain more results. This slogan is to boost morale and unify The whole army's thinking..."

Shen Naitian thought silently in his heart and felt that it made sense.

Keep reading, the analysis content that follows is simply staggering.

Before Kumogakure Village won and occupied the Death Forest, what was going on inside Konoha Village?

They were quarreling...

Strictly speaking, the reason for the quarrel can be traced back to thirty years ago, that is, the first ninja war.

At that time, Konoha Village was facing a harsh situation of siege from all sides, so the second generation Hokage Tobirama led a team to go to Kumogakure Village and reached an agreement with the second generation Raikage. The two sides were about to sign an alliance agreement. On that day, Ginkaku, known as the "Two Lights in the Cloud" and "the most vicious criminal in history", suddenly launched a coup, which directly led to the death of the second-generation Raikage and Tobirama.

Everyone knows the story of that day. Tobirama died generously, using himself as bait to attract the pursuit of the Golden Horn and Silver Horn troops, leaving the chance of survival to the younger generations. Sarutobi Hiruzen was ordered to become a new generation of Hokage in the face of danger. There is a big bug here. Tobirama could have used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer everyone away directly. If you ask me why Tobirama didn't do this, I didn't know...

The problem lies here. First of all, the procedure is wrong. The appointment of the Kage requires the approval of the Daming Palace and the consent of the majority of the village's senior, middle and grassroots people. It cannot be directly appointed by the previous generation of Hokage, otherwise everyone's Kage will become The shadow of a family.

That's all. After all, things happen for a reason and the situation is really special. But there is still a problem. In fact, the best and most suitable candidate for Hokage in the Hokage team that was traveling together at that time was not Sarutobi Hiruzen...

Who is that person who has been forgotten by everyone?

Uchiha Mirror, Tobirama's direct disciple is closer than Sarutobi, because Sarutobi was jointly taught by Tobirama and Hashirama, and was evaluated by Konoha Village as "one of the few in the Uchiha clan who can transcend the narrow vision of the clan." When Tobirama's team was surrounded, he was the one who first proposed that one person should sacrifice his life to lure the enemy. From this, it can be seen that he is very calm, wise, and has outstanding tactical thinking.

Coupled with some records about him in history, we know that this is a ninja with an excellent overall view, and he has almost perfectly inherited the will of fire, so he can also be regarded as the ideological successor of Hashirama.

With the will of fire, a master of tactics, and an excellent strategic perspective, this is a very rare ninja.

At that time, the Senju clan retreated behind the scenes, and Uchiha was the strongest among the major families in Konoha Village. This also aroused the fear of many in the village. Kagami is a member of the Uchiha family and a disciple of the Second Hokage. He is born with the advantage and position to coordinate the conflicts between the village and the Uchiha clan. No matter how you look at it, Kagami is the most suitable candidate for the Third Hokage. .

Probably, this is also the closest time in history that the Uchiha clan has been close to the position of Hokage.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi is not an ordinary person. First of all, facing the fear of death, Hiruzen Sarutobi was the first to offer to serve as a bait. This allowed Tobirama to see his sacrificial spirit and judged that Hiruzen was this The most enlightened person in the army. Secondly, the Sarutobi clan that Hiruzen belongs to is also a wealthy clan in Konoha Village, second only to Uchiha. Finally, Sarutobi's father was very famous at the time.

How big is it? According to the setting of the official book of formations, Sarutobi's father Sasuke Sarutobi has the ability to perfectly master the changes in the five types of chakra properties. The three-generation Hokage Hiruzen's five-attribute ability is inherited from this. In addition, Sarutobi Sasuke's reputation was such that even the extremely arrogant Uchiha clan had to admire him. Therefore, after Uchiha Mikoto gave birth to her second son, she went to seek permission from Sarutobi Hiruzen and named her second son Sasuke. , meaning, I hope that the second son Uchiha Sasuke can become a strong and great ninja like Sarutobi Sasuke.

From a purely historical perspective, it may be more correct to choose Uchiha Kagami, because Kagami has a descendant named Uchiha Shisui, Shisui has a sworn brother named Uchiha Itachi, and Itachi has a biological brother named Uchiha Sasuke. His father was the patriarch of the Uchiha family of that generation, a tragic figure who planned the coup...

If the person who served as the third Hokage was Kagami, then with Kagami as the mediator, the tragedy of the Uchiha clan's genocide would probably not have happened. It is even more impossible to talk about the subsequent series of changes. The Uchiha clan could have integrated into the wood normally Leaf Village might be able to save Obito from his tragedy and train him to become the fifth Hokage.

If the person in Tobirama's position at that time was Kannaten, then he would never hesitate, and the person he chose would definitely be Kagami.

But history has no ifs. Tobirama chose Sarutobi, which caused dissatisfaction among many people, including Danzo, the Shimura clan where Danzo belonged, and the Uchiha family.

It was precisely because of this incident that the Hokage's power was weakened, and the village began to establish an elders' council system, with Mito Monobu, Koharu Koharu, and Shimura Danzo serving as advisors. The Uchiha family further established itself and became independent from other members of the Leaf Village. outside the power of the other side, and developed the dark psychology of seizing power by force.

The war manual held by Kannaten has a detailed analysis of this: the second-generation Hokage Senju Tobirama illegally appointed the third-generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, which seriously provoked the nerves of the Uchiha family, the largest family in Konoha, and the two sides fought openly and secretly over this. For nearly thirty years, the results are self-evident. The Uchiha family was defeated in the power struggle and was suppressed and excluded. From the political center of Konoha Village, it declined to a remote clan maintaining public security in the village.

Well, now that Kumogakure Village has breached the national gate, if you want me, the Uchiha clan, to fight, I will definitely not be willing to do so. The reason is because our job is only to maintain public security in the village.

When the Nine-Tails Incident broke out in the future, Uchiha Fugaku, then the clan leader, told his subordinates that he ordered his security forces to only relocate the villagers and not participate in the attack on the Nine-Tails. Even Danzo had this attitude, not one of his Anbu training classes went into battle.

"A mess...a bunch of idiots" seeing this,

Kannaten licked his lips and commented.

But it’s different now. Yunyin Village has shouted the slogan of permanently occupying the Death Forest. What does this mean?

First, for the Leaf Village, it means that at the border of the Forest of Death, the two statues of the Valley of the End, which are considered the pride and glory of the Leaf Village, will also fall into human hands. Their heroes are mine. Qiu Kou, don’t imagine that Yunyin Village will be so polite to Hashirama and Madara’s statues. It’s not like no one remembers Madara’s arrogance back then.

Secondly, for Tang Zhiguo, it is estimated that after Yunyin Village borrowed the marching passage, they were probably unwilling to leave honestly.

Third, for the Moon Country... they have nothing to say. The country is weak and there is no ninja village, so they can only be beaten.

Finally, Kannaten was not happy, because the Kingdom of Yu could be regarded as his territory, including Lord Otoro, the daimyo of the Kingdom of Yu, who was also his puppet.

The reason is that the military strength of Yunyin Village is too strong. Looking at it now, the major countries have not yet mobilized their full strength. The army of more than 10,000 people in Yunyin Village is suddenly the most powerful in the ninja world.

Cloud Hidden Village, which dispatched its strongest army, arrived at the doorstep. The people in Konoha Village were still arguing over which people and families should be sent to fight against the enemy. As a result, the Konoha Village army that was urgently gathered was suddenly defeated and retreated to the first place. The second line of defense, the Forest of Death, is occupied by the enemy.

At this time, Konoha Village woke up, and the Uchiha clan did not dare to object anymore, and honestly accepted the Hokage's order.

As a result, the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan, two of the few wealthy clans in Konoha Village, began to recruit personnel within the clan and sent them to the eastern battlefield. Together with civilian ninjas and ninjas drawn from other departments and families, a total of four thousand With the remaining people, the army headed to the front line.

Although the number is only half that of Kumogakure Village, this is the home ground of Konoha Village. Konoha Village can completely concentrate its superior forces, use the strong to fight the weak, use the weak to avoid the strong, and rely on the strategy of the home field to bring down Yunyin Village vertically and horizontally. As long as Yunyin Village finds that the ratio of losses between the enemy and ourselves has increased to an unacceptable level, they will naturally withdraw their troops.

And this is the opportunity for Kirigakure Village.

Join the battlefield. When Konoha Village and Kumogakure Village form a tense situation, the army of Kirigakure Village will come across the sea, waiting for work, and directly snatch the victory of Kumo Hidden Village.

I won't be there when the fight is at its most ferocious, and I will come on stage after you finish the fight. This is the Sandaime's plan.

The Sandaime Mizukage, who had successfully regained his power, was very high-spirited. He just casually asked Kanaten and other senior ninjas for their opinions. Kanaiten had no objection at all and issued an appointment order, appointing Ao from the Intelligence Department to serve as the head of the Tang Country. Commander, take over Kannaten's army. At that time, the Third Mizukage will personally take action and serve as the commander. Hinawa Yuya was appointed as the commander of the tea country's military port, responsible for maintaining the mobilization of troops on the sea. As for Kannaiten, according to the previous agreement between the two parties, he has transformed and become the supreme leader who sits in the headquarters and maintains daily security.

To be honest, Kannaitian’s position is not low. Although he cannot lead the army to the front line, he has obtained temporary leadership of the security department, medical department, intelligence department and other departments, including the headquarters responsible for tactical and strategic planning. Because of the personnel They are concentrated in the village, so in terms of level and responsibility, they also belong to the department under Kanaten. Even the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, since these people will not be dispatched immediately and are strategic-level ninjas, they are still Kannaten's subordinates when they usually stay in the headquarters.

This marks that Kannaitian's tentacles have finally reached into some power departments of the headquarters.

"congratulations."

"Lord Kannaitian, please take good care of me in the future."

"It's really young and promising."

For a moment, the ninjas around Kannaiten began to congratulate him. In their opinion, this was a sign that Kannaiten was trusted by Mizukage, otherwise the heavy responsibility of sitting in the rear would not fall on him.

"Haha..." Shen Naitian smiled but said nothing. What else did he have to say?

Historically, the Kirigakure Village failed in its attack on the Leaf Village, but it continued to send people to lurk and harass, which even continued until many years later when Kakashi became an ANBU, that is, after the Nine-Tails Incident in 48 years, Kirigakure finally The village leader Ao was repeatedly repelled by Uchiha Shisui's illusions and had to withdraw his troops back to the village.

Of course, this situation is similar to everyone. Kumogakure Village also coveted the Hyuga family's eyes after the war, and put pressure on Konohagakure, claiming that it would start another war if they did not hand over the ninja who killed our chief. In fact, they were right. Konoha Village urgently needs peace to restore its survival predicament.

Iwagakure Village was even more exaggerated and directly stated that the Sandaime would be responsible for the dead ninjas. They would only agree to peace if the Sandaime stepped down.

The only one who gave in was Sunagakure Village. As soon as the war ended, the two sides resumed diplomacy in the second year. I don’t know how many times they signed the contract, and I don’t know how many times they changed from enemies to allies again, making Konoha The village opened up the situation diplomatically after the war.

If it weren't for the fact that so many major events happened in the Third Ninja World War, such as the death of the Sandaime Raikage, the fame of Yellow Flash, the death of many people among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, etc., it is estimated that Kirigakure Village would have become the center of the Ninja World. A laughing stock.

On the rostrum, the third generation chatted. After a long speech, most of the ninjas were so excited that they wished they could grow a pair of wings and fly to the inland to fight.

Kannaiten, on the other hand, was distracted throughout the whole process, and things on the front line were none of his business.

After the meeting, the Sandaime left Kannaten alone.

"Mobilizing the army costs a lot, and I need your support."

During the war, Mizukage personally went to the battlefield, and Kannaten was responsible for the transfer of funds in the rear. According to Kirigakure Village's investigation of Kannaten, although he controlled a huge amount of funds, there was no sign of corruption, so in this regard The third generation is still relatively reassured. But I'm afraid that Kannaiten will have conflicts in his heart. When the funds are blocked, the ninjas on the front line will not be paid, or the team will have no money to buy armaments, which will be unlucky.

Mizukage will be unlucky, and Kannaten will be even more unlucky if he is held accountable afterwards...

Kannaten thought for a while and said: "Give me two ninja quotas. I have recruited two good subordinates outside and can introduce them to Kirigakure Village."

"You are talking about Kakuzu and Hayakura." The Sandaime frowned and said, "I have heard about these two people following you around. I can barely agree with the former, but the latter was expelled from Sunagakure Village. Even the name of the ninja has been engraved on the commemorative monument. Once the traces of Ye Cang are discovered by the Sunagakure Village, it may cause some bad consequences."

Kannaitian spread his hands and looked at Mizukage without saying anything. The meaning was very simple. If you don't give me a place, I won't give you money.

Kannaten himself doesn't have much money, but he has a lot of liquid cash in his hands. Now Kirigakure Village is about to officially enter the battlefield. By then, thousands of ninjas will have wages, pensions, medical expenses, armors, weapons, ninja tools, etc. Food, etc. all cost money.

Kannatian is not stupid, and arrogance depends on the timing. This money must be paid because he has seized the shipping rights and commercial rights from the village, so he can make a profit. If he doesn't give the money now, he will wait for others in the future. Let me settle the score with you.

Basically, during the two years of the war, Kannaiten didn't think about how much money he made. An elite unit like ninjas has no money to play with you. Do you know how much a ninja's head costs on the black market?

"Let's do this." The Sandaime rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I can only give you one quota, but Kirigakure Village will cancel the wanted order for Ye Cang, declare that Ye Cang is missing, and judge him to be dead. From now on, she When walking in Kirigakure Village, you are not allowed to show your true colors, so that’s it.”

The Sandaime is sympathetic to Ye Cura and has no hatred towards her. Of course, the Sandaime doesn't know that Ye Cura is thinking about killing him all the time.

The most important thing is that Ye Cang used to be a senior executive of Sunagakure Village and must know many secrets of Sunagakure Village. These are what Kirigakure Village wants.

"Then it's decided." Kannaten shook hands with the Sandaime, indicating that they had reached a consensus, "I will coordinate with the headquarters. Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"

The Sandaime pondered for a moment and said; "In terms of internal affairs, communicate with other people. If the Daming Palace puts pressure on you... Haha, I forgot, you have a good relationship with the Daming Palace, so the last point , it is best not to interrupt the Chunin Exams in September, otherwise it will cause a certain atmosphere of panic."

"Understood." Shen Naitian said, "Then I will make the decision myself and select some people to be the examiners."

The Sandaime said casually, "Well, you can make your own decision. The most important thing is the battlefield."

Before leaving, Kannaten asked one more question.

"Our attack target is Konoha"

"Of course." The Sandaime said in surprise, "The defeat of Konoha Village has been determined. This is obvious."

Kanna's providence pointed out; "What about Cloud Hidden Village? If you help them defeat Konoha, aren't you afraid that the second most powerful military country will be born?"

The Sandaime shook his head and said, "Impossible. The strength of Konoha Village is a combination of economic, military, cultural and other aspects. This is related to their unique geographical conditions. It is impossible for Yunyin Village to follow the route of Konoha Village. At best, , can only become a military power, but it is already one, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Our Kirigakure Village has the sea as a barrier and is not afraid of anyone or any organization."

Kannaitian smiled, waved his hand without commenting.

"So, goodbye and good luck."

"Goodbye."
