Picked up a copy of Konoha Ninja

When the two reinforcement teams rushed into the dense forest, they came back soon.

Also coming back together was Minato Namikaze, carrying a stretcher behind them, and on the stretcher lay Hinata Hinashi's body with bloodied eyes.

"Have you sacrificed yourself, Uncle Hizu?" Kakashi had teased Hinata Hizu before. He was only ten years older than him, but he was so old-fashioned.

But between life and death, Hinata Hizu stepped forward and allowed himself to take the two bodies and leave first.

And when he cuts off his wife, it means death.

"Hizu's Byakugan was taken away, and the target was the Fourth Raikage Hagi." The chakra in Namikaze Minato's body fluctuated a little, "I fought with him, and this time Kumogakure was well prepared and arranged a An elite team of more than thirty people was ambushing one kilometer away. When I discovered them, I retreated using the Flying Thunder God's technique."

"Sir the Fourth Hokage, we should immediately mobilize the ninja troops to the front line of Tian Country to take revenge on Kumo Hidden Village."

"That's right, Lord Fourth Hokage, we cannot just watch the Byakugan being taken away, and the person killed by the Fourth Raikage this time was the leader of our Konoha family."

"I understand." Namikaze Minato closed his eyes heavily, "Let's go back to the village for the time being. I will report the situation here to the higher-ups."

In July of the 48th year of Konoha, Namikaze Minato summoned five thousand Konoha ninja troops to rush to the front line of Tianno Country. Jiraiya and Tsunade, two Kage-level ninjas, held the battle line and directly crossed the Tiannokuni defense line to attack the frontline ninjas of Kumogakure Village. Troops launched a surprise attack.

With the cooperation of Jiraiya and Tsunade, even if Kirabi and Yuki arrived at the same time, they did not achieve very good results. Later, it was only after Ai led the elite troops that the two sides arrived. The war dragged into a stalemate.

At the end of the month, Namikaze Minato sent the previous generation of elder advisors Mito Kaden and Koharu Koharu as negotiators to negotiate with Kumogakure.

Soon I received a reply from Yunyin Village.

"In exchange for a white eye, I want to quell the war." Akimichi Tofeng smashed the case in front of him with a slap, "How is this possible? Did Rizu's sacrifice be in vain?"

"That is, we will not give up until their Yunyin Village surrenders their eyes this time and pays sufficient war compensation."

As for what they wanted to do with the culprit, the fourth generation Raikage Hai, none of these people mentioned it.

Even a group of Jōnin from the Hyuga clan sitting in the tent did not speak.

They were dressed in mourning clothes, wearing sackcloth and mourning, and looked downcast.

"Hizashi, have you selected the next leader of the Hyuga clan?" Jiraiya, who was sitting on top, looked at Hizashi and asked.

"Not yet, Jiraiya-sama. Currently, the clan family only has the unborn child who is still in the belly of the sister-in-law. The others are members of the branch family. According to clan rules, only she can inherit the position of clan leader."

"It's a pity. Isn't there a way to unlock the caged bird? It's obvious that it is most appropriate to inherit the position of clan leader with your strength."

Hinata Hizashi remained silent, obviously he was still immersed in the sadness of the death of his elder brother Hyuga Hizashi.

"Okay, let me announce something. The Fourth Hokage is planning to mobilize ninjas from the Uchiha clan to reinforce the front line. What do you think?"

"Fugaku? There aren't many Kage-level ninjas left in the village at the moment. Do we really want him to be dispatched?" Tsunade said in a serious voice.

"Minato's intention is probably to end this war as soon as possible. Currently, the internal cleansing of Kirigakure Village has begun, and they should not participate in this war."

"The situation over at Sunagakure is also normal. I guess the Fourth Kazekage has just taken office and needs to stabilize the country."

"The most troublesome thing now is Iwagakure. In that battle, they relied on Takigakure to help them resist the continued pursuit of the Kumogakure ninja troops. Now they still have a lot of strength left, and the two powerful Jinchūriki are both exist."

"If we fight Kumogakure for a year or two, that old guy Onoki will definitely send an elite ninja team to test our village."

"But about Uchiha Obito's defection," an ANBU jounin said in the field.

"He is the captain of your ANBU. When you say that, aren't you afraid that the rest of your ANBU will be disappointed?" Jiraiya frowned and looked at him and shouted.

"It's just the opinions of some people in the village. Within the ANBU, we don't have any opinions on the former captain." The Jonin immediately lowered his head and apologized.

"I think we can dispatch some ninjas from the security force to come over for reinforcements." Tsunade touched her chin with one hand, "There is not much defense force in the village now, so ninjas from major families can stay in the village temporarily to guard against Iwagakure. "

"As for the security force, most of them are ninjas who have graduated from the ninja school and have been practicing for several years. They are not lacking in strength and experience. They can be put on the battlefield to practice, and then return to the security force in the future, full of murderous aura, and It can shock a lot of people.”

"But if those ninjas are sent to the battlefield, there will be a lot of casualties."

"Let's ask Kakashi about this first. He is the captain of the security force after all."

"can."

A few days later, reports came back from the village.

"Kakashi actually agreed and came here with more than a hundred members of the security force. As for the defense of the village, it is left to the major families to take turns to cooperate with the remaining security forces."

"Uchiha Shisui, this brat, actually became the vice-captain arranged by Kakashi?"

Across the vast sea hundreds of miles away, Obito was standing on the deck of a merchant ship with Nohara Rin in his arms, blowing the sea breeze and looking at the seagulls spreading their wings and taking off with the rising tide.

"Obito, if war breaks out, will you go back?"

"will not."

"why"

"Sacrifice is inevitable in war, but with the current strength of the village, it can definitely survive it. At most, it will only cost some casualties."

There was a bit of disappointment in Lin's eyes, "You are still blaming the Third Hokage."

"I don't blame him. He can work hard for the village. Although some policies are not implemented as expected, but in general, the Third Hokage has paid a lot for us Konoha."

"Hey, Obito, look, that island in front of you is so strange. It's actually covered with barbs."

Obito smiled slightly, his chakra had already sensed this big turtle.

The boatman on the side quickly ran closer and asked, "Shall we move the boat over?"

"No need." Obito directly hugged Lin and lifted his feet to the sea. With his feet connected, he quickly ran towards the Turtle Island in the distance.

"Is he actually a powerful ninja?" The boatman who was left standing on the deck looked shocked.
