Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide! - Chapter 261
c260 Danzo makes a plan, the decisive battle is coming
Outside of Konoha, when the four major ninja villages were busy electing the leader of the alliance, Konoha Village was also in turmoil.
Although Shimura Danzo used religion as a powerful weapon, it could only stabilize the villagers and civilian ninjas.
Although Shimura Danzo had methods for the ninjas with independent houses and powerful military forces, in such a critical situation, his methods that were not up to standard could easily hurt feelings and were not conducive to unity.
However, this kind of kingly strategy was exactly what Shimura Danzo was not good at.
Just when Shimura Danzo was at a loss, Namikaze Minato came to the Hokage’s office and handed him a counterattack plan.
“Hokage, I have some ideas about this war, and I hope the village will adopt them.”
At this time, the Hokage’s office was empty. Shimura Danzo was facing the door with his back to the sunset and looking at the Hokage Rock not far away, silently thinking about how to coordinate the whole village and deal with this crisis.
Hearing the knock on the door, Danzo Shimura turned around and looked at the “Yellow Flash” who was famous in this war. He nodded and took the plan silently without saying much.
Everyone in the ninja world thought that Minato Namikaze was famous for his space-time ninjutsu, but they didn’t know that this young talent of Konoha, the descendant of the Three Ninjas, was actually very smart. Therefore, Danzo Shimura, who was in a deadlock in thinking for a while, had great expectations for this plan.
At this time, Minato Namikaze was also looking at the person in front of him with extremely complicated eyes.
With Minato Namikaze’s IQ, plus some clues that Danzo Shimura gradually exposed in his future memories, he could naturally see the role Danzo Shimura played in the incident of Hatake Sakumo and Hatake Nao.
Although the relationship between Kakashi Hatake and him as a teacher and apprentice was not long, he was the first student he brought out after all, so he was naturally full of sympathy for Kakashi Hatake’s experience.
But in the past few years, he was immersed in learning to absorb the “future memory”, thinking about how to take revenge on Hozuki Shingetsu, and with the fall of his biggest backer Sarutobi Hiruzen, he could not be hostile to the Hokage no matter what.
So even if he sympathized with Kakashi, he could only watch Kakashi gradually fall into darkness, except for talking to him frequently.
Originally, he was thinking about practicing step by step, and then looking for an opportunity to use space-time ninjutsu to assassinate Hozuki Shingetsu.
But the speed of the collapse of the situation in Konoha was far beyond his imagination.
His performance on the front line of the Land of the Earth was wonderful, but he still didn’t expect that the speed of collapse of other fronts, especially the front line where the Hokage was, would be so fast!
It was not until the Third Ninja World War that he realized that it was definitely unrealistic to take revenge on Hozuki Shingetsu by himself.
Not to mention the current international situation in the Ninja World, just the personal strength of Hozuki Shingetsu is not something he can shake now.
Although he learned the Sage Mode and various subsequent uses of Rasengan and Flying Thunder God Technique from future memories, he did not dare to say that he could easily defeat the two generations of Hokage.
In this case, if he wanted to take revenge, he could only find another way and start from somewhere else.
For example… become the fifth generation Hokage, gather the power of the whole village and even the whole ninja world, and take revenge on the Hidden Mist Village.
Everything is changing and developing. Now he is under Kizuna Shingetsu, but as long as Konoha survives this level, the situation will usher in a drastic reversal.
After all, Kizuna Shingetsu’s current strength can be said to be the first in the ninja world. Coupled with the great development of the Hidden Mist Village after this battle, as long as you are not blind, you can see that the Hidden Mist Village is the next Konoha.
Then, with the IQ of Minato Namikaze, he can naturally comprehend the essence of the means of forming alliances.
By that time, Konoha today will be Kizuna tomorrow.
In order to achieve this goal, he must do everything he can to save Konoha.
“Did you come up with this plan yourself? Does anyone else know the content of the plan?”
Just as Minato Namikaze lowered his eyes and thought about his revenge plan, Danzo Shimura quietly put down the plan in his hand and gently pressed a button on the table, asking his men to strengthen the vigilance around the office.
“It’s true that I came up with it. Except for me and the Hokage, no one else knows the content of this plan.”
Seeing Minato Namikaze nod affirmatively, Danzo Shimura’s eyes flashed with a complex look.
Although he had overestimated the wisdom of this young man, he didn’t expect that he could come up with such a method at this time.
“You should know that you are the most suitable person to complete your plan… and once you complete this plan, you will probably be on the must-kill list of all the major ninja villages. And your reputation in the ninja world, especially among the daimyos of various countries, has probably fallen to the bottom.”
“If the daimyos of various countries put pressure on you, it is not certain whether Konoha can save you.”
“These are things that Konoha will consider after it can survive this battle… If Konoha is destroyed in this battle, then what is the point of considering these things?”
Namikaze Minato looked at Shimura Danzo with a firm face and a very familiar hatred in his eyes.
“Moreover, the four nations of wind, water, thunder and earth attacked the Land of Fire this time, and the daimyo was so angry that he even cancelled his favorite entertainment activities. Although there is an agreement between the daimyo of each country to guarantee the status of the daimyo after the war, what others give is not as good as what you have.”
“In this case, as long as Konoha can be saved, I guess the daimyo will definitely be happy to support me.”
Shimura Danzo took out the pipe left by Sarutobi Hiruzen from the drawer, slowly put in the tobacco, compacted it, lit it, took a puff, and then slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth.
“Ahem… Since you have made a decision, go ahead! From now on, you only need to report all your actions to me.”
Shimura Danzo knocked on the pipe and agreed to Namikaze Minato’s request.
Namikaze Minato nodded expressionlessly, and then asked about another matter.
“Hokage, about Michiko’s situation…”
Danzo Shimura raised his hand to stop him before he finished speaking.
“You know the current situation of the village. The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is an indispensable fighting force. In order to ensure that no one will affect the Nine-Tails’ state, she is in a very safe place at this time.”
When the war started, in order to prevent Sarutobi Hiruzen from using the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki as a powerful weapon to do something, Danzo Shimura, regardless of Minato Namikaze’s opposition, firmly protected Michiko Uzumaki.
When Sarutobi Hiruzen died in the battle, in order to consolidate his position after the defeat, Danzo Shimura naturally could not release the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
So at this time, Minato Namikaze had not seen his wife for more than two months, so he asked this question.
“The Nine-Tails Jinchūriki is your wife, but she is also a very important asset of the village. Don’t worry, I will naturally ensure her safety.”
Then Danzo Shimura raised his eyes and glanced at Minato Namikaze, “But before you set out to complete the mission, you can go see her.”
Watching Minato Namikaze nod silently and then leave, Danzo Shimura looked at the plan on the table and finally smiled.
“Release the demons of the Demon Country to disrupt the Wind and Earth Countries, steal the Box of Bliss and release it in the capital of the Lightning Country, assassinate the Daimyo of the Water Country to cause civil strife in the court of the Water Country, steal the Seven-Tails and release it in the native land of the Hidden Mist Village, and assassinate several tailed beast Jinchūriki at a fixed point… Today’s young people really can’t be underestimated!”
Danzo Shimura once again made a sigh similar to that of Ohnoki, and then suddenly noticed that outside the office glass, a large amount of paper suddenly appeared in the sky of Konoha.
“This is…”
He pushed the glass open, gently shook his palm, and suddenly a breeze pushed a piece of paper into his hand.
On this paper, which was only the size of an unfolded book, was densely written with the propaganda slogans of the Four Ninja Villages.
“The four ninja villages of Kirigakure, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Sandagakure are close neighbors to Konoha, and should have lived in peace and harmony. But the Hokage of Konoha acted tyrannically and abducted the ninjas of Kumogakure… So in the end, we made a decision that went against our ancestors…”
“But what did the Hokage do? What did the people do wrong? We couldn’t bear to fight against each other and wipe out the last trace of the inheritance of Hashirama Senju… So after serious discussions, we finally promised that anyone who is willing to help us resist tyranny in Konoha, as long as they stick to their own clan in the next battle, can be exempted from post-war accountability, and if they are willing to abandon darkness and follow light, they can also enjoy some of the preferential rights of the victors…”
“We decided to launch a general offensive in three days. Before that, we welcome any ambitious people to embrace the light… But there will be no time to wait. When the official general offensive is launched in three days, any ninja who has not made a choice will be regarded as a rebel of Konoha, and will be crushed to pieces under the army!”
How could Ghost Lantern New Moon forget such a classic Chinese tradition of war propaganda and mobilization?
That is to say, the morale in Konoha Village is still good, and they still have the strength to fight and have not really run out of ammunition and food. Otherwise, Kizuna Shingetsu would have to command the four major ninja villages to attack from all sides and shout:
“Tan-san, the cherry blossoms in your hometown are blooming, don’t you want to go back and take a look?”
“Asshole!”
The moment Shimura Danzo saw the propaganda slogan, his face changed drastically. He wanted to collect all the propaganda papers to control the news, but looking at the papers in the air that covered at least half of Konoha, he could only reluctantly put away this idea.
He could already imagine the reactions of those ninjas when they saw these propaganda slogans.
When there were no such slogans, those ninjas had their own little thoughts. Now that this slogan came out, it is estimated that if he did not take action, he might wake up in the middle of the night and be hung in front of Konoha!
With this thought in mind, Shimura Danzo turned around hurriedly, opened the door and rushed to the Root Base.
He was going to meet Uzumaki Nagato, and use the special features of his Samsara Eye to coordinate with Namikaze Minato’s actions, and make a final stand! ——
“These Earthlings have so many ways of fighting!”
Picking up a propaganda slogan from midair, and then choosing a passerby to learn the words on the propaganda paper, Otsutsuki Ryoma couldn’t help but sigh.
The wars they had experienced or recorded before were essentially internal fights between two branches of the family. With their number, it was at most an internal fight in the village.
Naturally, they had never seen a propaganda offensive that was the first to appear in the ninja world.
“These things are because the ninja world has been fighting for thousands of years, so the soil for the birth of such tactical ideas has been nurtured… This just proves that the earthlings have deviated from the ideas of the Six Paths Sage, and they should activate the reincarnation eye to eliminate all these people.”
The other two who were born later and had not “personally” seen the strength of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara spoke out.
“Okay, now is not the time to discuss these things!”
Otsutsuki Ryoma waved his hand to stop the two people from talking, looking at the tall Konoha wall not far away and the four ninja village coalition stationed on the other side, a trace of solemnity flashed across his face.
“According to the information circulating in the ninja world, the eyes of the legendary Six Paths Sage exist in this ninja village. It is a powerful eye technique that can be compared with the Samsara Eye of the ancestor of Hamura. It must not be taken lightly.”
“And the thief who stole the Outer Path Demon Statue at the beginning, according to the speculation of the elders of the clan and the clues left by the ancestors, is likely to be related to the holder of this Samsara Eye… It just depends on the situation. At this time, Konoha is about to usher in a war. At that time, what is the situation of the Samsara Eye and whether its holder is related to the thief will be known at a glance.”
Unlike the two juniors, Otsutsuki Ryoma had “personally” witnessed the powerful strength of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara before, and he himself had personally manipulated the giant Samsara Eye to kill the existence of the Otsutsuki clan.
Therefore, he is extremely cautious about the Samsara Eye, which is as famous as the Samsara Eye. Now that someone is testing the situation for them, he will naturally not force himself.
He is not one of those young fools who rush forward without caring about other things for the sake of merit.
Although he lost his eyes, he has not lived enough!
Moreover, the branch of the Hyuga clan, the Otsutsuki clan, is in Konoha. If he can seize a pair of eyes from the main family in the chaos, he can take the opportunity to get rid of his blind identity.
Combined with his Otsutsuki bloodline, it is possible that the Byakugan can also have some power of the Samsara Eye. How could he risk his life at this time?
Not far from this group of people, two White Zetsu also quietly emerged from the dense woods, silently watching the upcoming battle not far away instead of Uchiha Madara.
So just like this, under the watchful eyes of a group of people with ulterior motives, time quickly came to three days later, when the final battle was coming.
