Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki - Chapter 294
c294 Kumogakure’s plan
As night falls, the brightly lit commercial streets highlight the prosperity of Konoha.
Taking a break from his busy schedule, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the scenery outside the window with a smile on his face.
At this time, a ninja eagle pierced the sky and landed in front of the window sill of the Hokage’s office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen took out the scroll on the Ninja Eagle and looked at the contents on the scroll. His brows couldn’t help but wrinkled, “The envoy from the Kingdom of Thunder is coming to communicate?”
The relationship between the Country of Fire and the Country of Thunder is not considered friendly. The second Hokage died in the Country of Thunder. Although a long time has passed, the relationship between the two countries has not eased. In recent years, the two sides have been in constant war. Now the Kingdom of Thunder actually sent a delegation to communicate, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel a hint of conspiracy.
Although he knew that the person who came was not good, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not turn him away. It was not that Hiruzen Sarutobi didn’t want to, but that he couldn’t. This time, these people did not come as members of Yunyin Village, but as members of the Kingdom of Thunder. Although the people who came were all from Yunyin Village, the meanings were quite different.
If someone comes from Yunyin Village, it’s called an invasion, but if someone comes from the Kingdom of Thunder, it’s called a visit. Visits between countries cannot be refused even if there is great hatred. This is the virtue of a country, so Sarutobi Hiruzen must receive it.
“I hope nothing will happen. Today’s Konoha. Alas.” Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the bright moon outside the window with a distant look.
In a post station on the border between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Thunder, the mission of Yunyin Village is being repaired here.
“Damsa, your mission this time is to visit Konoha on the surface, but in fact the most important mission is to obtain the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan. Do you understand?”
“I understand, Raikage-sama, do you want to come with us?”
“I can’t go. I’m waiting for news from you here. It would be best if you can bring back the members of the Hyuga clan. If not, you must use your life to bring back the bodies of the Hyuga clan!”
Damsa’s whole body was shaken, and then he showed a look of death. “Yes! Raikage-sama!”
“Damsa, this matter is of great importance. Thank you for your hard work.”
“For Kumogakure, these are nothing.”
“I’ve wronged you.” The Fourth Raikage patted Damsa’s shoulder with a solemn expression.
Compared to other ninja villages, Kumogakure’s bloodline limit is really too small, and the Byakugan ability is very suitable for their Yezuki clan’s thunder escape armor. Since the third generation of Raikage, Kumogakure has been thinking about the Hyuga family. of blood.
As for why I chose the Byakugan instead of the Sharingan, there are two reasons.
The first is the degree of compatibility of abilities. Although the Sharingan also has super dynamic vision and even has copying and illusion functions, these abilities are relatively useless to the big bosses of Cloud Hidden Village. The Byakugan’s clairvoyance ability can even see the flow of chakra clearly, which is undoubtedly the most suitable choice for the Yeyue clan who are good at ninjutsu.
The second reason is even simpler. The Uchiha clan has isolated a separate residential area. In other words, the Uchiha clan’s clan is not within the protection scope of Konoha’s defense ninjas. Therefore, the Uchiha clan’s defense force will be stricter than that of the Hyuga clan. The Fourth Raikage does not think Damsa can break through the Sharingan’s defense.
Therefore, the Fourth Raikage focused on the Byakugan, not the Sharingan. The Fourth Raikage also knew that there was almost no chance of successfully regaining the Byakugan of the clan this time.
Although Konoha seems to be in decline now, except for Shirataki, who has never seen a dragon, Konoha basically has no high-end combat power. But he would not be reduced to being successfully kidnapped from the village by a member of the Hyuga clan. Both the Fourth Raikage and Damsa knew this.
So their plan was to use Damsa’s death as an excuse and threaten another war to force Hinata and Konoha to hand over a clan body. Damsa and the Fourth Raikage had already set their target. They are Hinata Hinata and Hinata Hinata.
First, kidnap Hinata Hinata. If it succeeds, it would be best. If not, Damsa will die in the hands of Hinata Hinata! The Fourth Raikage was extremely confident that he could succeed. Because Konoha today is extremely weak and in decline, they do not have enough strength to withstand the ravages of war!
Sakumo’s suicide, Orochimaru’s defection, Tsunade’s retirement, Jiraiya’s travels, Namikaze Minato’s disappearance, and Obito’s death. These lack of Kage-level combat power undoubtedly allowed the still powerful Kumogakure to see an opportunity. After investigating Jiraiya’s traces, Konoha was like a young girl with a red fruit, completely losing her last cover.
As for the new generation of strong men like Kakashi, Asuma, and Shisui? Their fame is just popular in Konoha. At least in the three battles, the two are far less famous than Obito. After all, Obito defeated the four-tailed Jinchuuriki Lao Zi.
The next morning, the Fourth Raikage watched the delegation of dozens of people set off.
“Lord Raikage, this plan will definitely succeed.” A beautiful dark-skinned ninja said.
“I hope otherwise, Damsa’s sacrifice would have been in vain.”
Konoha Village, Hokage’s office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage was sitting on a chair. The dozen or so people in front of him were all the elite backbones of Konoha Village, and they all had the strength of elite Jonin. Kakashi and Asuma were also among them.
Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage took a puff of cigarette, slowly blew out the smoke ring, took out a scroll, and said, “This is the scroll sent by Ninja Hawk last night.”
The ninjas present were all shocked when they heard this. The scroll sent by Ninja Eagle was a big event. Could it be that something big is going to happen in the village recently? After Kakashi and Asuma looked at each other, they both looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
“The content in this scroll says that a delegation from the Kingdom of Thunder is coming to Konoha for exchanges. What do you think?”
Nara Shikaku touched his mustache and said, “Sandaime-sama, I’m afraid this is a bad person.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage nodded, “Yes, I think so too. It’s just that Kumogakure Village is visiting in the name of the country and we can’t refuse. Therefore, after Kumogakure’s visit, I hope you can strengthen the surveillance of Kumonin.”
“Yes! Hokage-sama!”
“Okay, you all go down.” After hearing this, everyone dispersed.
“Kakashi, Asuma, please wait a moment.” Just as Kakashi and Asuma were about to leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen called them.
“Kumogakure may have an ulterior motive for coming to Konoha this time, so you must be in the best condition.”
Kakashi was stunned and said, “Sandaime-sama, what do you think?”
Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage nodded, “Kakashi, I know that your strength has improved by leaps and bounds in the past few years. I’m afraid you have mastered 70% of Shirataki’s sword skills, right? If Kumogakure is really here to cause trouble this time, I’m afraid you still need to take action.”
Kakashi’s face turned solemn, “Sandaime-sama, Konoha is my home, and I will naturally protect it.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage showed a smile, “Okay, let’s get down.”
At this moment, Asuma pursed his lips in disdain and shouted in a low voice, “Huh! Only 70% to 80%? I have already mastered 90% of Arashi Enkiri! Even compared to the original teacher Shirataki, it is not much better.” let!”
Listening to Asma’s arrogant words, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn’t help but frown. He admitted that Asma’s talent was very high, and he had indeed made rapid progress under Shirataki’s guidance, but it was not as good as the original Shirataki. .Isn’t that because he is already better than himself? According to Sarutobi Hiruzen’s intelligence, Asuma obviously did not reach this level.
After hearing this, Kakashi did not argue with Asuma, but looked at Asuma with contempt, then turned and left the Hokage’s office.
With Kakashi’s departure, father and son Sarutobi Hiruzen and Asuma began their daily bickering.
After Kakashi left the Hokage’s office, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He immediately came to Shirataki’s mansion and told Shirataki about the matter.
After Kakashi finished speaking, Shirataki lowered his head slightly and began to think. Others may not know the purpose of Kumogakure’s visit this time, but Shirataki did.
At this point in time, Hizashi is still alive and Kumogakure is here again, so it should be a plot where Hinata is about to be abducted and Hizashi commits suicide to apologize.
Damsa, the envoy from the Kingdom of Thunder, sat on the carriage and followed them unsteadily. This time when he went to Konoha, Damsa knew that he was almost lifeless.
But Damsa didn’t care. His relatives and friends were almost dead long ago. If he had anything to worry about in this world, it might be his feelings for Kumogakure.
If he could sacrifice his life for Kumogakure in the end, it would be a good ending. Using his meaningless life to complete this great task for Yunyin, Damsa felt nothing but honor.
Apart from Damsa, there was one other person in the mission who knew about the mission of this trip. That person was named Kuze. Other than that, the rest of the people didn’t know why they came to Konoha to visit.
It’s not that Yunyin doesn’t trust these people, but the fewer people who know about them, the better. Otherwise, if the news leaks out, the possibility of success this time will be greatly reduced.
As for why Kuze knew, it was because after Damsa’s death, Kuze took on the responsibility of putting pressure on Konoha.
Of course, this matter cannot all be relied on by Kuze. Kuze was only the spokesperson at the beginning, and the one who will come forward later will naturally be the Fourth Raikage!
First, use the death of Damsa as an excuse to threaten Konoha. It would be best if Konoha compromised on this. If not, the fourth generation Raikage must take action to make further threats.
As long as the Fourth Raikage appears at Konoha’s security guard at the border of Fire Country, then if Konoha does not want to start another war, this matter must be compromised. It has to be said that Yunyin Village worked hard for this operation.
“Damsa, are you ready?” Kuze came over and asked at this time.
Damsa showed a smile, “There is nothing to be prepared for. From the moment I left Yunyin, I knew that I would sacrifice my life for Yunyin. Death is not terrible. I have already been calm.”
Kuze sighed, “Hey, Damsa, you”
“Kuze, your task is more arduous than mine, so I’ll leave it to you when the time comes.”
“Damsa, don’t worry. With the current strength of Konoha, we will never dare to offend our Kumogakure. Our plan will definitely succeed this time!”
“I hope so. It’s just that I don’t know why. The closer I get to Konoha, the more ominous I feel.” Damsa frowned as she spoke. Damsa didn’t know what it was about this wonderful feeling before death. Something happened.
Kuze heard this and patted Damsa on the shoulder and said, “Damsa, you are too nervous. Don’t worry.”
“I hope so.” Damsa couldn’t figure out the reason, so she decided to let go of this feeling temporarily. The next task is the most important thing. Damsa must adjust his condition to the best.
The reason why Kumogakure chose Damsa to complete this task was not because of Damsa’s strength, but because Damsa’s hiding ability was very superior.
Only with this hidden ability can he sneak into the Hyuga clan’s territory under the eyes of Byakugan. This is a fatal path, but Damsa has no regrets.
Because he has faith in his heart and his love for Yunyin Village, Damsa is willing to give everything he has for the village, including his life!
