Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide!

"...The above is all the current information. So everyone, the Second Ninja War has officially begun."

Sarutobi Hiruzen announced the order to start the war with a serious face, but coupled with the farce just now, it was really difficult for the atmosphere of the entire venue to become serious again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen obviously felt this, so he gave Jiraiya a sharp look again, then moved past this issue and began to change the subject to make war arrangements.

"According to the intelligence, although the three ninja villages have formed an alliance on the surface, they are actually still fighting separately. So in response to this situation, I have made the following arrangements."

When they heard this, everyone here knew that the critical moment was coming, and they immediately cheered up and listened carefully.

"In the direction of Yunyin Village, advisor Danzo is the commander-in-chief, leading 3,000 people to resist the military peak of Yunyin Village, which will definitely block it from the borders of the Country of Fire!"

"In the direction of Sunagakure Village, Akimichi Takafeng is the commander-in-chief and will lead two thousand people to resist Sunagakure Village. We must intercept it at the line between the Kingdom of Sichuan and the Kingdom of Rain!"

"As for the rest of the people, I will lead them and gather the best of the entire village to deal with the Yanyin Village first!"

When a single person faces three different enemies, it is impossible to divide his troops to resist them at the same time. He must concentrate his superior forces to defeat one first before talking about the others.

Among the three enemies, Sarutobi Hiruzen chose neither Kumogakure, the strongest village, nor Sunagakure village, which seemed to be the weakest, but Iwagakure village, which had the largest number of people.

The reason is also very simple, Ohnoki can fly.

He couldn't guarantee that when he led the crowd to attack Yunyin Village or Sand Hidden Village, there would be a flying little potato following far behind, giving him a dust escape from time to time.

So it’s better to kill Iwagakure first and let him exit before talking about anything else.

And although Iwagakure Village seems to have the largest number of people, the entire ninja world knows that there are many ninjas in Iwagakure Village because they have few elites and have to fill them with numbers.

But if the ordinary troops meet the elite, do you need to think about the scene?

Isn't it like butter that melts when touched by a hot knife?

But it just so happens that he, Konoha, doesn't have much else but more elites.

In addition, Kumo Hidden Village is also the second in the ninja world. Whether it can quickly deal with the opponent is another matter.

Although there are fewer people in Sand Hidden Village, the combination of desert + puppet technique + poison is too annoying, and it is really not a good choice from the perspective of rapid advancement.

Based on the above considerations, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally made such a decision. Then he turned to look at his old buddy with a solemn expression.

"Duanzo, the task of resisting Kumogakure is very difficult. No one in the village can do it except you."

With three thousand troops to resist the second force in the ninja world, and still not allow it to enter the country, this task is not an arduous one.

Although they were at odds with Danzo for various reasons, it was obvious that at this critical moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen still believed in Shimura Danzo.

Because he knows that his old friend may have different political views and opinions from him, but the starting point is the same.

Shimura Danzo and he were both people who inherited their teacher's legacy and deeply loved Konoha.

The fact was just as Sarutobi Hiruzen thought, although at this time Shimura Danzo already had other thoughts in mind.

However, in the face of the life and death of Konoha at this time, he was not so extreme, but he was still able to put the overall situation first and put aside his personal grudges with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Facing his old friend's request, he nodded gently, made a promise, and then made his own request.

"However, among these three thousand people, there must be no shortage of ninjas from the Uchiha and Hyuga clans."

This request was reasonable and reasonable. After all, he was the second best ninja in the world. It would be unjustifiable if the elite refused to grant this. Therefore, Shimura Danzo's request was understandable to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

He just handed over the Uchiha ninjas to the command of Shimura Danzo... Sarutobi Hiruzen only hesitated for a moment in his mind, and then agreed to his request.

"Okay, I'll give you half of the Uchiha and Hyuga ninjas."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Hinata Matsutomi and Uchiha Homura, asking for their opinions: "What do the two clan leaders think?"

Hyuga Mitomi definitely has no objection to this. After all, those who go to the battlefield are all members of the branch family. People from the branch family go wherever they go to fight, so why should they go against the Hokage?

So he simply nodded, indicating that his side was meaningless.

On the other hand, Uchiha Homura's answer was a bit playful.

"Of course we, the Uchiha clan, fully support Hokage-sama's proposal. However, most of the elders in the clan are old, and the rest will probably follow Hokage-sama in the expedition against Iwagakure. I really don't know who to lead the team at the moment... How about this, We let Fugaku lead the team to support Danzo-sama, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell into silence, and everyone present looked at him with disbelief, unable to believe that these words came from the mouth of the Uchiha clan leader.

Shimura Danzo's hostility towards Uchiha was not a secret at their level. However, in this case, Uchiha Homura also sent the hope of his clan to the other party. Is he really not afraid of accidents?

Is it possible that I believe in Danzo Shimura's character so much?

Only a few people had thoughts in their eyes, and they clearly understood Uchiha Homura's thoughts.

Uchiha Fugaku, the Hokage's disciple, is the hope of the Uchiha clan and the only bridge between Uchiha and the village.

The Uchiha clan knew this, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew this, and Danzo Shimura knew this.

Because of this, unless Konoha really wants to fall out with Uchiha at this critical moment, it is impossible for Uchiha Fugaku to have trouble with Shimura Danzo.

It can be said that unless Uchiha Fugaku does not leave Konoha, as long as he comes out, he will be very safe staying with Shimura Danzo.

Even if Shimura Danzo wanted to, Sarutobi Hiruzen would not let him do this.

Shimura Danzo narrowed his eyes. He obviously knew what Uchiha Homura was thinking. This feeling of being manipulated really made him unhappy.

Uchiha Homura, on the other hand, looked at him without any sign of weakness, without the slightest bit of timidity.

This was his bottom line, and it was also his response to Shimura Danzo's previous actions. After all, under Shimura Danzo's various plans, the Uchiha clan had suffered too much.

He also had speculations about Uchiha Mirror's death, but he couldn't talk nonsense without the evidence.

Therefore, he wanted to make this guy who hates the Uchiha clan so much not only not be able to harm Fugaku Uchiha secretly for the sake of the overall situation of the village, but instead must suppress his nausea and work hard to protect the hope of the Uchiha clan.

Only in this way can the hatred in his heart be relieved.

Of course, the reason why he chose Shimura Danzo was by no means just this, it was more to pave the way for Uchiha Fugaku's next step.

From a pressure point of view, Yunyin Village's defense line is also under the greatest pressure.

After all, they had to resist the attack of the second best ninja with three thousand troops, and buying time for Sarutobi Hiruzen's actions was the top priority.

And it can be expected that once it is finally successful, the credit on this front will naturally be the greatest.

When the time comes, Uchiha Fugaku, as a disciple of the Hokage and the hope of the Uchiha clan, will be able to share a great contribution by bravely marching to the most dangerous frontline regardless of his own safety. Isn't this too much?

And with merit, it naturally means that you are one step closer to the position of Hokage.

Being on the front line of what is ostensibly the most dangerous but actually the safest front, not only can you get credit for it, but you can also guarantee safety. Is there any more beautiful job than this?

Especially since this credit was obtained by stepping on Shimura Danzo's face, it would be even better for the Uchiha clan.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Uchiha Homura's calm expression and guessed his inner thoughts.

Knowing that this was the condition for the Uchiha clan to send troops, he looked at his old teammate and wanted to warn him not to cause trouble at this time.

"Danzo, you..."

"Of course I know what you are going to say, Hiruzen, don't worry."

Shimura Danzo interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen's speech, stood up, and looked at Uchiha Homura.

"The village is facing life and death. Everything has to give way to the overall situation. I know what I should do."

Danzo Shimura's tall figure looked down at Uchiha Homura who was sitting in the audience, and said in an inexplicable tone: "After all, he is an outstanding talent who has understood the will of fire like Kagami. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to protect him based on the lessons learned from the past. .”

"I believe that under the care of Lord Danzo, Fugaku will be very safe. Maybe he will still remember this experience under your command after he becomes the Fourth Hokage."

Uchiha Homura sat in his seat and smiled, also meaning something.

In the quiet venue, the tit-for-tat words of the two people continued to echo in the venue.

And this scene was watched silently by everyone present, and what they were thinking in their hearts could not be explained to outsiders.

"Okay, in that case, Danzo, I will leave Fugaku to you. If there is any problem with Fugaku, I will ask you!"

When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw this, he pretended to be confused and quickly passed the topic, focusing on the overall goal of this war.

"Although the overall action plan is planned like this, and it is quite possible on paper, the final results of the action are inseparable from your efforts."

"I don't want to say more than necessary. We have survived such a critical moment in the first Ninja World War, and there will definitely be no accidents this time."

"Finally, I have only one sentence for everyone here."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and looked around the entire venue, focusing on the heads of the major ninja clans.

"Konoha is not my own Konoha, but the Konoha of everyone here. Therefore, the victory of this war is related to whether we can continue to sit here. I hope you will go all out and don't care about it. The gains and losses of a clan should be based on the overall situation.”

"That's it, let's break up the meeting!"
