Picked up a copy of Konoha Ninja

"Garuyama, what should we do with the Chuunin exams that we were originally preparing for? Many of the jounin you summoned are still leading the genin team." Danzo watched as the senior leaders of the big families left. , asked towards the back of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Then change the rules of the Chuunin Exam and change the search and rescue of Hatake Sakumo into an S-level mission issued by the village."

Danzo narrowed his eyes, "If we really want to go to war in such a big way, I think we should recall Jiraiya or send Orochimaru out of the village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were deep, "I'm talking about all jounin, including Jiraiya and Orochimaru of course."

"Duanzo, you should leave for the border immediately. The direction of Amegakure Village depends on your roots."

Danzo nodded without leaving any trace, and walked down the stairs with his crutch.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the direction in which he disappeared and murmured: "How long has it been, Danzo, you still have selfish intentions."

At Nohara's house, Lin happened to walk out of the bathroom and went outside to dry her clothes when she saw Minato Namikaze squatting on the wall waving to her.

"I'm sorry that the vacation ended early, Lin."

Soon, the two of them were jumping on the roof of the Konoha house with their bags on their backs.

"Minato-sensei, Kakashi, what should I tell him?"

Namikaze Minato was slightly startled, "As for Kakashi, he is a strong child, so there should be no problem."

"But, teacher, I'm worried..."

A few minutes later, when the two arrived at the edge of the cliff, they saw Kakashi with red eyes standing facing the direction of Sunagakure Village. In addition to Obito lying on the ground, there was also a slender figure.

"Lord Orochimaru, why are you here?" Namikaze Minato was a little surprised, "Is it possible that even Lord Orochimaru has to personally take part in this mission?"

"I will rush to the border of the Land of Fire, but I will not act with you." Orochimaru glanced at Kakashi, "Minato, take care of these three children."

"Yes." Namikaze Minato watched Orochimaru leave and glanced at Kakashi worriedly, "Kakashi, I'm sorry about White Fang-sama."

"Teacher, let's leave now." Kakashi turned around, his eyes a little red and swollen.

"Okay, I'll give you fifteen minutes to prepare your bags and then gather here."

"No need, Mr. Minato, Orochimaru-sama is ready for us." Obito pointed to a scroll placed on the ground, unfolded it casually, and covered it with one hand, "Psychic art."

"Bang bang", two clouds of smoke exploded, and two bulging backpacks appeared on the spot.

"Hey, did Lord Orochimaru prepare so many things for you?" Minato walked up and flipped through them randomly, "They are all edible."

"Master Orochimaru came from the medical ninja. He brought fresh rice balls and soldiers' food pills, and also replenished us with some new ninja tools. Minato-sensei, let's not delay any longer and set off as soon as possible. I I think Kakashi must be feeling very uncomfortable right now."

"Ah."

The group of people ran into the dense forest and met a small team that had been waiting here a few miles away.

"Well, Minato, you're late."

"It turns out that the one who is performing the mission with us this time is Senior Bluebird."

"Kakashi, are you okay?" At the same time, Kai took the initiative to come closer and comfort Kakashi.

"It's okay." Kakashi looked indifferent, trying to calm his inner anxiety.

Sarutobi Aotori glanced at Kakashi, "It's not too late, let's set off as soon as possible."

"Well, if there are any tactics, let's discuss them on the road."

"Swish, swish, swish", the eight people walked through the jungle, with the original team members marching side by side on both sides.

"Minato, the two of us are leading the genin squad. If we encounter an enemy, you and I will protect the team's front and rear, and determine the enemy's situation before facing the enemy."

Namikaze Minato's eyes moved slightly, "Aotori-senpai, if you encounter a small number of enemies, leave it to me to deal with it. Aotori-senpai, you are responsible for protecting these genin."

"Well, it seems that I haven't seen you for a long time. Minato, you are becoming more and more confident now. What, have you mastered the space-time ninjutsu of the Second Hokage?"

"Of course, I am now exploring the second stage."

"Now, it seems that I have underestimated you." Sarutobi Aotori smiled knowingly, "Minato, you didn't master senjutsu like Jiraiya-sama, but you learned something that so many of us in Konoha couldn't. The time and space ninjutsu, with your current strength, is no longer on the same level as mine."

"Hey, don't say that, Bluebird-senpai. I remember that you also mastered the combined ninjutsu taught by the Third Hokage."

"My chakra attributes are not as good as those of the Third Hokage, so I have not been able to master the combined ninjutsu of the five chakra attributes." Sarutobi Aotori sighed, "A person like the Third Hokage who is proficient in all chakra attribute ninjutsu A genius, I’m afraid he is the only one in the entire ninja world.”

In just two days, the group arrived at a small town only eighty miles away from the border.

"Minato-sensei, we have just received news from the ninjas left behind in the town. It has been confirmed that the third Kazekage of Sunagakure Village is missing. Currently, spies from all the major ninja villages are coming to the Kingdom of Wind. Sunagakure senior officials have ordered that they be deployed at the border. We have recruited more than 3,000 elite chunin, and Iwagakure Village is also increasing its troops towards the border."

"Is there any new order from Tofu-sama?" Namikaze Minato frowned and looked at Obito and asked.

"Master Qifeng, in the name of the ANBU captain, summoned the Jonin team that rushed to the border to discuss combat tactics tomorrow night."

Back at the place where they stayed, Namikaze Minato and Sarutobi Aotori gathered together.

"Something's wrong, Bluebird-senpai."

"You're saying that with the style of Feng Feng-senpai, you shouldn't be so calm." Sarutobi Aotori narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Four or five days have passed, and there is still no news from Lord White Fang. Senior Blue Bird, what do you think the purpose of Sunagakure Village is now?"

Sarutobi Aotori held his chin with one hand, "I can't say for sure, Minato. Which team do you think among the hundreds of ninja troops assembled on the front line can carry out a sneak reconnaissance mission?"

"Is it the Inigard Butterfly Team?"

Sarutobi Aotori shook his head, "The three of them are very powerful in fighting together, but the target is too big."

"But the strength of other teams is not enough to break through the iron-clad defense line of Sunagakure Village."

Sarutobi Aotori shook his head slightly, "I don't think so. I remember that there is a team in ANBU that can carry out this infiltration mission."

Namikaze Minato's eyes fluctuated slightly, "Senior, are you talking about the Rakshasa combination of ANBU, and the Yuhi Mahko who is good at illusions?"

"Yes, if it is the three of them, there is still a good chance of finding Lord White Fang if they sneak into the Kingdom of Wind. But if they want to withdraw, they will need someone to support them."

The next night, as soon as he walked out of the Akimichi Torifu camp, Namikaze Minato approached Sarutobi Aotori and said excitedly: "As expected of Aotori-senpai, he can guess Lord Torifu's thoughts."

"Shhh, when I was in ANBU, Lord Tou Feng was the captain of our team."

"Now, this time our two teams are sneaking into the border of Kawa no Kuni respectively, where we will pick up the infiltration team. Senior Bluebird, please take care of me."

"You'd better give me your sword of forbearance."

Saying that, Sarutobi Aotori strangely took the kunai with the Flying Thunder God Technique from his hand, "Minato, why did you carve a sword of love on it?"

Namikaze Minato scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.

"Forget it, with your skill in naming, I guess you can't explain it." Sarutobi Blue Bird muttered, used the teleportation technique, and disappeared from the spot.

Namikaze Minato: "..."

At night, hundreds of tents were set up in a desert on the border of the Kingdom of Wind. At this moment, Rasa was sitting with a group of elite jounin from Sunagakure.

"Lord Luo Sha, several elders and advisors in the village have unanimously decided that you will be in charge of the battle. I don't know what you think of this invasion of spies from major national ninja villages."

Luo Sha touched his chin with one hand and pointed at the map hanging behind him, "We are currently in the Country of Rain. After the Second Ninja War, the Hidden Rain Village no longer has the strength to compete with the Ninja Villages of the three major countries. Fight, but don’t forget, our enemies in front are not only Konoha who is gathering a large-scale ninja force, but also the Iwagakure Village lurking on the sidelines."

"That old guy Onoki will not miss this good opportunity to weaken the enemy's ninja village."

"But what happened this time was because of the rise of the Third Kazekage-sama and the White Fang of Konoha. If the enemy's ninja village wants to invade in a large scale, the main enemy we face will still be Konoha's side."

Luo Sha nodded slightly, "Konoha currently has less than a thousand troops concentrated on the border, but many ANBU ninjas are very strong, and there are even elite jounin such as the Ino Shika Butterfly Team hidden in that jungle. Even though we have a large number of people now, if we want to keep them, the casualties will be heavy."

"Furthermore, if I guess correctly, given the character of the commander opposite, he must have sent people to sneak into our Kingdom of Wind at this moment. At dawn tomorrow, I will continue to use my third eye to check the desert to find these sneaks. Regarding the location of the ninjas, when the time comes we will dispatch ninjas from the towns stationed on all sides and we must capture and kill them all."

"Yes."

"In addition, I would like to remind everyone that before I came, the opinion of the village's senior management was that if the Third Kazekage-sama really encounters something unexpected, then we will immediately launch an attack on the Konoha ninjas at the border. Even if the third ninja world breaks out We won’t hesitate to fight a war.”

"Yes." After the words fell, all the jounin shouted in unison, and the murderous spirit echoed in the camp.

After all the Jonin left the camp, Luo Sha held a pen made of placer gold and pointed at the map, "Then let me see, what is the possible retreat route for you who have blatantly sneaked into our Kingdom of Wind? Woolen cloth."
