Kazuma dispelled the bad thoughts in his heart, but this thought lingered in his mind for a long time and could not be dispelled. The plan had been exposed once before, and that time, he had suffered heavy losses and almost died.
However, this time, his connection with Daimyo was almost secret. No one knew that he was still alive. It should be a coincidence. Kong wanted to be an ordinary person, so he asked Earth to remove the power in his body.
Although Kazuma wanted to comfort himself in this way, he could not afford to make any mistakes in his plan this time. He had to confirm where the power in Sora's body had gone.
That power was only secondary. Although he had wanted to use the tail beast's power to destroy Mu Ye in the past, his focus was no longer on this power. They had more confidence in destroying Mu Ye.
He just wanted to find out if Kong's disappearance of power was related to the plan being exposed. If there was, they would need to re-evaluate Mu Ye's strength.
After confirming this, Kazuma's figure quickly disappeared into the forest. He arrived before the monks of the Temple of Fire. As for his son, Kazuma did not want to show himself to see him. There was no need to make use of Kong, who had lost his power.
Since he had chosen to give up his power and become an ordinary ninja, Kazuma would not disturb him. It was his last conscience as a father.
Kazuma carefully approached the Temple of Fire. He had yet to confirm if his plan had been exposed or if there were enemies lying in ambush. Kazuma was especially vigilant and prepared to retreat at any time.
However, even when he entered the Fire Temple, there was still no commotion. It was as easy as the previous times he came to the Fire Temple. No one stopped him or guarded him.
Kazuma randomly picked a monk who was alone and decisively knocked him unconscious before taking him out of the Temple of Fire.
When the monk woke up, he was already in the forest far away from the Temple of Fire.
It was noon, but there was a faint cold aura in the dense forest, causing the monk to subconsciously tremble and stand up.
" Weird. Shouldn't I be in the temple?" The monk muttered to himself. He looked around and was a little confused.
"Are you awake?"
An unfamiliar voice sounded in his ear. Only then did the monk see an unfamiliar white-haired man sitting on a rock not far away. Moreover, from his appearance, he was not young.
Sitting on the stone with the horse was considered a bold move, so he did not tie the monk up.
"And you are?" The monk asked in confusion. His honest face did not seem to sense the danger, but he took a step back. The process was not obvious.
"Did a stranger come to your temple recently? Or is he someone of high status and authority?" Kazuma glanced at him and asked directly without answering his question.
There weren't many people in the Fire Country who could move the Chakra on Kong's body without harming him. Those who had the ability to do so weren't nameless people. In Ninja Realm, one's ability determined one's status.
"A stranger? No, there were very few visitors to the Temple of Fire.”
The monk still had an innocent look on his face. He took a step back and asked,"Patron, who are you? What is this place?"
"Stop fooling people!" A cold look flashed across Kazuma's face. Killing intent surged from his body as he pounced towards the monk.
The monk was quite quick-witted. Although he was frightened by this killing intent, he did not stay where he was and wait for death. Instead, he quickly turned around and ran towards the dense forest behind him.
Ring--
Kazuma immediately pulled out his staff that was standing beside the rock. He did not even have the intention of getting up from the rock. He waved his staff with one arm and threw it at the monk.
The golden staff extended as Kazuma swung it. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a golden chain and flew towards the monk, binding him tightly.
He tightened his grip on the other end of the chain and pulled hard. Under the monk's horrified gaze, the chain pulled him back to Kazuma's side. He was even closer, and the wrinkles on Kazuma's face could be seen clearly.
Before he could beg for mercy, his legs were broken by Kazuma.
The intense pain made the monk scream, but Kazuma had already pinched his cheeks. The powerful force stuck his cheeks, making him unable to speak. He could only whine.
"Has anyone come to the Temple of Fire recently? Has the monster in your temple been in contact with anyone recently?”Kazuma's eyes were filled with ferocity. He pinched the monk's cheek so hard that his head was about to explode.
"Wuwuwu." The monk was in so much pain that tears flowed out, but he could not speak or shout. His legs were broken and he could only kneel on the ground. He had already given up on escaping and only wanted to die quickly.
With a cold snort, Kazuma let go of his hand that was holding his cheek.
Panting heavily, the monk even forgot to scream and quickly replied,""Recently, no outsiders have come to the Temple of Fire, but two weeks ago, someone from Muye came and took Kong away. It took him less than two weeks. Everyone in the temple knows about this.”
Yes, everyone in the temple knew about this, but why did this demon in front of him look for him?
The monk wanted to cry, but he forced himself to at least say what he needed to say clearly so that he could have a quick death.
"Muye?"
Kazuma's expression darkened." Who's the person from Muye? Only one person came? How does Earthland treat him?"
Upon hearing Mu Ye's name, Kazuma felt that something was wrong and asked repeatedly.
"The person who came is the one who is often reported in the newspapers. He is the great hero of the Country of Fire, Shicun Tanzang. He is the only outsider in the entire temple.”
"The abbot was very cold to him, but he didn't object to him taking Kong away.”The monk replied in a trembling voice.
"Group storage?" Kazuma twisted the neck of the guy in front of him with an ugly expression. There was no need for him to ask any more questions. Since Mu Ye had called Danzo here, it was already very serious.
Tuan Zang was a figure from the same era as Yuan Fei and Ri Zhan. Although this person had always been at odds with the third generation Naruto, he was extremely loyal to Mu Ye. Between Daimyo and Mu Ye, Tuan Zang would definitely choose Mu Ye.
With Danzang's status, seniority, and loyalty to Muye, it was already worth Kazuma's attention to be wary of him for him to come to the Temple of Fire and take Kong away, as well as his tail beast Chakra.
Kazuma casually threw the corpse on the ground, stood up, and unrolled the scroll at his waist.
There was no room for error in the plan. Since the plan could be exposed and Kong had been destroyed, he needed to contact Daimyo as soon as possible to find more chips.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of air being torn apart rang out, and three figures appeared in front of Kazuma. There were two women and one man. Two of the women had delicate and beautiful appearances, while the man appeared to be violent and barbaric.
The three of them did not even look at the corpse beside them as they took a step forward to Kazuma's side.
"The corpses have been collected. We can leave at any time.”The most beautiful of the two women said. This woman had blood-red hair and her exquisite face was almost flawless. Even the small black mole at the corner of her mouth was charming.
"The plan might have been exposed. We have to inform Daimyo as soon as possible.”He Ma said without even raising his head. He bit his finger and slid it across the scroll to write something.
"Exposed?" Bu Feng frowned. This plan against Mu Ye was no small matter. If the risk was too great, she would consider withdrawing. She had not enjoyed the beauty of this world enough.
As if sensing the hesitation in Bufeng's tone, Kazuma finally raised his head and comforted him," Don't worry, the plan itself is almost ready. However, considering that Mu Ye may have already noticed and taken corresponding measures, we still need to inform the Daimyo to join forces with other forces.”
" We've made ample preparations this time. With Mu Ye's current strength, he won't be able to stop us at all. Soon, there will only be one voice in the entire Fire Country, and that is Daimyo!”
"When that time comes, we will become the heroes of the entire Fire Country and build our own ninja army!”
His tone was bewitching. Besides Bufeng, who was the strongest, Budong and Buyuan had already fallen into a beautiful dream with Ma Huaxiao, their faces fanatical.
…………
It had been some time since the activation of the telekinesis skill in the clear sky of Kinabe Village, and the cultivation of Naruto and the other two had come to an end. They were almost ready to graduate.
"Before you officially become a Genin, you need to pass the combat test to become a Jounin. Only after obtaining his approval and approval can you officially become a Genin.”
Naruto and the other two listened attentively while Tanzo looked at the lazy Kakashi and introduced,""This is Kakashi Shinobu, the person I found for you.”
" As for why I said it's the most suitable for you, I'll explain it to you when you officially become Genin. Now, all you need to do is take the bell from Kakashi's hands.”
After saying that, Tuan Zang took a step back and left the rest to Kakashi while he watched the battle from the side.
Squinting his eyes lazily, Kakashi scratched his hair and stepped forward to take over his position."Then, let's introduce ourselves first.”
Kakashi had done this before. As the leader of the Dark Group, he often had to bring the young blood that had just joined the Dark Group to carry out missions.
However, it was Kakashi's first time leading a rookie who had just graduated from a ninja school.
Although he didn't know the intention behind the team's hiding, since Lord Naruto had agreed to this suggestion and there was also his teacher's son in the team, Kakashi reluctantly agreed to this mission.
The prerequisite was that they could pass his test.
"Self-introduction?"
Sasuke and Haruno Sakura were still hesitating on how to introduce themselves in order to leave a good impression in front of this Jounin. Naruto had already stood up and introduced himself for the first time."My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I'm a man and I like girls. I'm five years old now. Although I'm unmarried, I already have a girlfriend.”
"No…"
Kakashi stopped Sasuke from opening his mouth to speak, interrupting this strange self-introduction.
"Although I don't know why you could find a girlfriend at the age of five, self-introductions shouldn't be so sloppy.”Kakashi held his forehead and said," Let me start first.”
" My name is Hatake Kakashi. I don't want to tell you what I like and dislike. My future dreams and interests are all constantly changing, so there's no point in telling you…"
"Other than the name, there's nothing else. It's not even as good as my introduction!”Naruto looked at Kakashi with disdain and shouted.
"Well, introduce yourselves according to my format.”Kakashi said casually. After staying in the Dark Group for a long time, he was used to hiding many things and would not casually reveal his own information.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I like ramen, not milk. My future dream is to become a ninja like Danzou Daren!”Naruto reintroduced himself. In front of outsiders, he would not address Danzo as Uncle Danzo, but as the others respectfully addressed him as Master Danzo.
Become a ninja like Tanzo?
Kakashi's heart was filled with complicated emotions. What exactly had his teacher's child experienced to become a ninja like Tanzo?
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I like to cultivate, and I don't like people that my teacher doesn't approve of. My future dream is to become my teacher's right-hand man, and also to bring that Uchiha Itachi back to the village.”Uchiha Sasuke followed Naruto's format and continued his introduction.
Is he a kid from the Uchiha family who joined the Danzou family?
Because of the name Uchiha, Kakashi unconsciously touched the eye he covered. He thought of his best friend from many years ago, a friend who owed him a lot.
"My name is Haruno Sakura. There are almost no things I like or dislike. My dream is to become Lord Tanzo's subordinate.”Haruno Sakura said calmly," And to become the strongest female ninja.”
Among the three of them, her introduction was the shortest. It was one of the compulsory lessons for ninjas to not reveal too much information about themselves. The first dream was the common dream of Sakura, while the second dream was purely her dream.
These three people were all die-hard members of the team…
Kakashi could not help but sweat on his forehead. Other than Haruno Sakura, Naruto also had the identity of the Son of Naruto. There was no need to mention Sasuke, the young master of the Uchiha clan. If nothing went wrong, he should be the next Uchiha clan leader.
Why did Lord Naruto allow Tanzo to brainwash these three little fellows?
Yuan Fei and Ri Zhan could not hear the doubts in Kakashi's heart, but at this time, Yuan Fei, who was far away in Naruto Building and observing this side with a crystal ball, could only have a worried expression. He had also roughly understood the three people's self-introductions through mouth gestures, but he could not stop the group from coming into contact with Naruto and Sasuke at all.
"Alright, very interesting self-introduction.”Kakashi didn't dare to turn around to look at the group behind him. He smiled awkwardly and said," Now, let the combat test begin.”
As he spoke, he took out two ringing bells from his pocket and continued,"Whoever can get the bell from me will pass the test.”
However, before he could say that the test had begun, Haruno Sakura pointed at the two bells and asked in confusion,""Why are there only two bells?"
Did he realize this so quickly?
Kakashi was a little surprised. The corners of his mouth curled up under his mask, but there was no hint of a smile in his tone."Because only two people can become my subordinates. The remaining one needs to cultivate again…"
Haruno Sakura and the other two frowned when they heard this.
"There's no reason for this. Mu Ye's team can only be a team of three people at most. Moreover, the team treasury lord has arranged for all three of us to be in your team, so it's impossible for anyone to leave.”Naruto shook his head and said. His tone was serious, and he no longer looked as carefree as before.
" Don't question any Jounin so easily." Kakashi's lazy gaze turned serious, and a thick murderous aura enveloped the three of them.
"Mu Ye's team is usually three people in a team, but guiding and leading three people at the same time is too exhausting, so I only need two people.”
Naruto stared at Kakashi seriously. He could hear the determination in Kakashi's tone, but it didn't make sense. He couldn't help but look up at the group hiding behind Kakashi.
However, they discovered that the group had long since disappeared from the training grounds. The only people left in the empty surroundings were the three of them and Kakashi.
"Since that's the case, let's change to another person.”Sasuke suddenly said. His eyes were filled with disdain. Compared to his two companions who had been together day and night, this Jounin who had suddenly appeared was clearly not qualified to make him abandon his teammates.
"I agree." Naruto nodded and stopped looking at Kakashi.
"I agree." Haruno Sakura nodded.
The three of them ignored Kakashi in front of them and started discussing among themselves.
Kakashi, who had been prepared to unleash a thunderous rage and scare the three of them, was stunned. This plot was a little different from what he had imagined. Although he had never taught a graduate before, he had once been a graduate.
Compared to their batch, were all the graduates now so arrogant? They started discussing which Jounin would be better in front of Jounin.
"That…"
Kakashi coughed and said," Actually, it's not impossible to bring three people, but you have to pass my test first.”
However, before he could finish, the three of them had already turned around and walked out of the training ground while discussing. They had no intention of listening to what he had to say next.
The hidden team member was amused. With him backing them up, the three of them would definitely not follow the conventional combat test. However, he did not expect Kakashi to actually follow the two bells in the original novel.
It had been a long time since the second generation had started testing the two bells, but the old routine was still being used.
Naruto and the other two were about to walk out of the training ground and did not care about what he said at all. Kakashi was also a little angry. After all, this was his first time being a Jounin. Couldn't he give him some face?
Although I look lazy, I'm not without a temper.
A hint of anger flashed across Kakashi's face as he instantly appeared behind Naruto and said with suppressed anger,""The three of you look very arrogant.”
The instant Kakashi appeared, Naruto instinctively threw a punch backward. The two people beside him reacted quickly as well, one on the left and one on the right, simultaneously kicking towards Kakashi.
The entire process was in the blink of an eye, and Kakashi was facing the attacks of the three at the same time.
His eyes were filled with admiration and a hint of danger. Kakashi quickly formed a seal with his hands, and before the three attacks could land on his body, he had already turned into smoke and disappeared, leaving behind a piece of wood that was suspended in the air. The three forces had directly blasted it into sawdust.
"The rules have changed. If the three of you can beat me, you will pass the test.”Kakashi's voice rang out in the ears of the three of them, as if he was leaning against their backs.
"Illusion!"
This hallucinatory illusion made Haruno Sakura realize that she had fallen for Kakashi's illusion. She shouted at the two of them and activated the chakra in her body to dispel it.
"Disperse."
After the illusion was removed, Naruto shouted. The three of them tacitly moved away in three different directions. During this process, they stared at Kakashi, who seemed to be in a daze.
This sense of teamwork…
The admiration in Kakashi's eyes grew stronger. The two bells were originally meant to test whether the graduates had the concept of companions in their hearts. Now that the three of them were so skilled in teamwork, there was no need to continue the test of the two bells.
However, a sense of danger suddenly flashed through his heart, and he left again.
"Spiral Ball!"
At the place where he was standing, another Naruto was holding a spinning light blue chakra ball and hitting the wood of the double, shattering it.
Clone? When?
Kakashi had a bad premonition in his eyes. Not only had he distanced himself from the three of them, but Naruto had also appeared in the training ground. Was this a Shadow Clone Technique?
However, a crackling sound of electricity that sounded like the cries of a thousand birds rang out. Kakashi was extremely familiar with this sound, and while he was shocked, he also began to be on guard.
The Chidori that Sasuke mastered was naturally taught by Danzou. Since he had taught Naruto the Spiral Pill, he naturally could not be biased.
"Two Gouyu?" Another wave of exclamations sounded in his heart.
After dodging Sasuke's Chidori, Kakashi grabbed Sasuke's arm and stared into his eyes. Two black magatama kept spinning in his blood-red pupils.
The Thousand Birds was the evolution of the lightning attribute chakra. Not only did it have extremely strong destructive power, but it could also stimulate the body with electricity to further increase its speed, thereby increasing its accuracy.
However, due to the increase in speed, the Thousand Birds user needed to have strong dynamic vision as a foundation, and the two magatama sharinyan already had enhanced dynamic vision.
However, Kakashi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration that he had awakened the Two Goujades at such a young age.
All sorts of attacks followed closely behind. Kakashi didn't have any time to speak. Even his lazy attitude had become extremely serious. Under the attacks of Spiral Ball and Thousand Birds, if he wasn't serious, he might die in this combat test.
The three of them were not only outstanding in ninjutsu and illusion, but also in physical skills. Among them, Uchiha Sasuke was the best, followed by Naruto, and then Haruno Sakura.
The physical techniques of the three of them were mixed with the killing techniques that only the Dark Ninjas were proficient in. As for how they learned it, with the group behind them, it was not surprising that the three little fellows could use any ninjutsu, physical techniques, or illusion Kakashi.
Although it seemed like three people against one person, Naruto seemed to have a huge chakra as a backing because of the tail beast chakra. He was constantly using shadow clones to assist.
Kakashi felt that he should be fighting against a hundred people at the moment. There were ninety-eight Naruhito, plus a Haruno Sakura who was proficient in medical illusions.
Kakashi quickly moved away from the three of them in a few blinks. He was panting heavily. It was quite tiring to deal with so many people at the same time. Moreover, the three little fellows who had just graduated were not only at the level of Genin. Some people would definitely believe that they were Chuunin.
However, this was his first time being a Jounin, and he was also the former leader of the Dark Group. It would be too embarrassing if he could not even defeat his own subordinates.
After resting for a while to recover his strength, Kakashi pulled down the blindfold that he had been covering, revealing the blood-red Shura Eye.
If he didn't seriously use this pair of eyes, it would be quite difficult for him to defeat these three little fellows.
"You are quite good at teaching your disciples." No one knew when Flying Yuan Sun Slash had also arrived at the training ground. He stood beside the group trooper and said. Observing the three people's strength through the art of binoculars, Flying Yuan Sun Slash was surprised at the same time, but also somewhat admired the group trooper's standards.
"The three of them should be able to directly take on missions above B grade.”
"I'm still far from it."
Tanzo shook his head and said," Let them start with the C-level mission first. Naruto's seal should be lifted. After all, this is the power left to him by the fourth generation."”
"After removing the seal, he still needs some time to get used to Chakra's control. That fox's ability to cause trouble is not bad.”
Kakashi, who had revealed the Three Magatama Shura Eyes, had clearly doubled his strength.
In order to save their lives, Kakashi had to be extremely cautious when fighting against these three little ghosts. However, it was different with this Sharunan. He could clearly see the movements of the three of them with this eye.
He had succeeded because of this Shurunyan, which had given him the nickname of Kakashi, but he had also lost because of this Shurunyan. Most of his strength depended on this eye.
Haruno Sakura's current level was still unable to dispel the illusion that was enhanced by the Three Hook Jade Hypnotic Eye. Sasuke also lost the advantage brought by the Sharun Eye and was quickly defeated.
Only the huge Naruto of Chakra was still struggling to hold on with the help of his shadow clone. According to Sasuke's speculation, the consumption of the outsiders to use the Sharunan was much higher than usual. As long as they persevered and waited for Kakashi to run out of energy, they would be able to win this combat test.
Sasuke's speculation was not wrong, but Kakashi would not let Naruto continue to delay like this. Considering that there was a group hiding at the side, Kakashi used a large-scale compound ninjutsu to directly defeat Naruto's multiple shadows.
As the three of them were defeated, Haruno Sakura's illusion was dispelled, and she saw the two people who had fallen in front of her.
Hastily stepping forward to help the two of them up, Sasuke said awkwardly,""So our test failed?”
He didn't expect that even though the three of them cooperated so perfectly, they still couldn't defeat this Jounin in front of him and complete the test. Sensei should have left in disappointment.
Naruto's injuries were more serious than the two of them. His eyes were dull and he did not speak. Not only was his shadow clone mentally exhausted, but even his main body had suffered considerable damage.
"No, you passed the test.”Kakashi shook his head and said. He sat down on the grass patch and closed his eyes in exhaustion, returning to his lazy appearance.
"The test this time, whether it's the bell or the actual combat, it's not about whether you can get the bell or defeat me. It's about whether your cooperation in this process can satisfy me.”
"To be honest, the strength of the three of you is already far beyond that of an ordinary Genin. If it wasn't for my rich experience, an ordinary Jounin wouldn't be able to withstand the combined attacks of the three of you.”
When he said this, Kakashi couldn't help but raise himself up a notch, lest these brats belittle him and think that he was just an ordinary Jounin.
Upon hearing Kakashi's words, Naruto and the other two felt a hint of joy, but they still felt that it was a pity that they had not been able to defeat Kakashi.
"It's already very good for the three of you." Tuan Zang also finally walked out from his hiding spot, and beside him was the third generation Fiery Shadow Ape Flying Sun Slash.
"Lord Naruto." Kakashi was half-lying on the grass patch tiredly as he respectfully called out to Yuan Fei.
"Thank you for your hard work." Yuan Fei patted Kakashi's shoulder kindly.
Looking at the excited trio, Tuan Zang smiled and said to them,""From today onwards, you are officially ninjas.”
With three chin protectors in his hands, Danzou walked over and squatted down, helping them put them on one by one.
Whether it was Naruto, Haruno Sakura, or even Sasuke, who had always been cold and indifferent, they were also a little excited at this moment.
Yuan Fei and Kakashi both stood behind the group trove and watched this scene silently. This should be the most beautiful moment of a ninja's life. There was no hatred or pressure. There was only the joy of passing the test and embarking on the journey of dreams after graduation.
"However, since all of you have become ninjas, there are some things that I have tacitly assumed that you have the ability to bear, so I will tell you here.”
After putting on the forehead protectors for the three of them, Tuan Zang took a step back and looked at them."Just like Kakashi said, the most important thing in a team is teamwork. You guys did well in the combat test just now.”
Hearing Tuan Zang's praise, the three of them smiled.
"Since you have passed the test, then I will follow what I said before and introduce you to your new leader, Kakashi.”
Tuan Zang moved aside so that they could see Kakashi behind him.
" Hatake Kakashi, a genius ninja who became a Jounin at the age of twelve. You can now be said to be the elite of the Jounin, and you have your own title in the entire Ninja Realm. Every ninja who has a title in the Ninja Realm is not an ordinary person. I also hope that the three of you can make your own name in the Ninja Realm.”
Kakashi scratched his head uncomfortably when he heard the group's bragging. Naruto and the other two looked at Kakashi in surprise.
He did not expect such a decadent, lazy-looking uncle to be so famous in Ninja Realm.
"Kakashi has a certain level of attainment in physical skills, ninjutsu, and illusions. You should have felt it in the battle just now.”Tanzo continued," There aren't many ninjas who are capable of all-rounded development, and there are even fewer ninjas who are proficient in this path. That's why I said that Kakashi is the most suitable Jounin to guide you."”
He explained to them to prevent them from underestimating Kakashi's strength, as well as his own strength. Being defeated by Kakashi was definitely not a shameful thing.
"Other than that, there are some things that Naruto III and I think you should know since you are a team.”
As he spoke, Tanzo looked at Naruto, who realized that what happened next was related to him. After all, he had many secrets.
"You should have heard about the tail beast, right?”Tanzo looked at the other two people beside Naruto and asked.
Sasuke and Haruno Sakura both nodded. The existence of Tailed Beasts in the Ninja Realm was not a secret, and it was also mentioned in the classes of the Ninja Academy. From the first generation, the Tailed Beasts were distributed to other villages, as well as the history of the Tailed Beasts.
"Due to the huge size of the tail beast and the almost endless chakras, it is known as a combat weapon by all countries. Using the power of the tail beast as a sealing carrier is called the human pillar strength.”Tuan Zang continued to explain.
"You should have more or less heard of Naruto's past. He was called a monster or something like that. The commoners who didn't know the situation mistook Naruto for the Nine-Tailed Fox of the Nine-Tailed Rebellion, but in fact, Naruto was only a carrier that carried the power of the Nine-Tailed Beast.”
"The power of the Tailed Beast is not something that ordinary people can control. It takes a lot of hard work to resist the invasion of the Tailed Beast Chakra. In order for Naruto to cultivate properly, I sealed the Nine-Tailed Beast in his body and cut off the connection between the Nine-Tailed Beast and him, so that the Nine-Tailed Beast could not affect Naruto.”
" But now, I feel that Naruto can control this power on his own. I will also help him undo the seal at this time. After that, Naruto will be able to borrow the power of the tail beast again, which will be very helpful to your entire team.”
Release the seal…
Hearing Danzou's words, Naruto was a little reluctant.
With the influence of the fox, his strength would undoubtedly drop a lot in the short term. However, this was the power his father left him. Although he was unwilling to come into contact with the fox, he did not object.
Sasuke's eyes widened in disbelief. This was the first time he had heard about this. It turned out that Sensei had been talking to Naruto about what would happen after the seal was lifted.
But at the same time, he felt a sense of danger.
Originally, Sasuke could still compete with Naruto by relying on the limit of the Blood Successor, but now that Naruto's body also had a power that was not weaker than the Shura Eye, he began to panic.
Kakashi was also a little surprised. When he saw Naruto using such a huge chakra to clone himself, he thought that Naruto had learned how to borrow the power of the nine tails. However, he did not expect that his chakra was actually his own, and the tail beast had been completely sealed by the group.
"The people nearby have been cleaned out.”
A Dark Group ninja half-squatted in front of Yuan Fei and reported.
"Understood. You may leave." The Flying Ape Sun Slash nodded towards the group in front, indicating that he could start removing that seal.
Originally, Tuan Zang planned to help Naruto remove the seal on his body after a period of time. But Yuan Fei happened to be present. Then, he would take advantage of this opportunity to directly make this matter public and help Naruto remove the seal in passing.
Kakashi had already recovered from the conversation. At this moment, he, Haruno Sakura, and Sasuke were standing not far away, watching Naruto and Danzou in the center of the training ground.
"What kind of power can a human pillar possess with the help of a tail beast?”Sasuke suddenly asked Kakashi. He wanted to estimate how big the gap between him and Naruto would be because of this unsealing.
Kakashi was stunned. He did not expect Sasuke to ask at this time, but after thinking about it, he replied," Number will no longer be an advantage. With the power of the tail beast, whether it is physical strength or chakra capacity, it is almost infinite. Although I don't know how many clones Naruto can split up, if he uses the power of the tail beast, it is not impossible to have nearly ten thousand clones.”
This was only a conservative estimate. After all, the shadow clone had a huge side effect, but every time it was removed, the mental fatigue was not something that ordinary people could withstand.
Nearly ten thousand clones…
Sasuke clenched his fists and looked at Naruto in the middle of the practice field. He felt that the distance between him and him was about to be pulled apart again.
At the center of the training ground, Danzang focused all of his mental power on Naruto. Without his body and soul on guard, Danzang's mental power easily entered the seal.
The seal was an independent space of consciousness within Naruto's body. Previously, Tuan Zang could only enter this sealed space with his consciousness by forming hand seals in the outside world. Now, he could easily do it without forming hand seals.
Drip, drip, drip.
It was still the familiar sewer. In the humid environment, Tanzo and Naruto walked side by side toward the place where Nine-Tailed was sealed. It had been more than a year since the last time the two of them came to this sewer.
"I still remember the first time I came here. You were still very wary of me. We were like strangers.”Tuan Zang seemed to be reminiscing.
" Yeah, it's been so long…"
Naruto's eyes were also filled with memories. Because of that chance encounter, he met Uncle Danzo at Ichiraku Noodle Shop. Then, with Uncle Danzo's help, he made good friends one after another. Even the villagers gradually lost their cold gazes towards him.
Everything was slowly changing, and his strength was constantly increasing. At present, he had already become a ninja who could take charge of an area.
"Do you still remember what I promised you before? When you have the ability, tell me your father's name. Although you should be aware of this yourself, your father is the fourth generation of the Fire Shadow Wave Feng Shui Sect.”Tuan Zang suddenly said.
"Yes." Naruto nodded. His calm expression was slightly shaken, but he was not surprised.
He had long known that his father was the fourth generation Naruto. When Tanzo said that the Spiral Pill was a ninjutsu developed by his father, he had read a lot of information.
The creator of the Spiral Pill had the same blond hair as him. In order to hide his identity, they gave him the surname of his mother, Uzumaki Yukina. He had investigated everything in secret and made reasonable deductions.
After knowing his father's identity, Naruto felt only joy and responsibility. This was the fourth generation Naruto of Koba, and he enjoyed the respect of the villagers.
He could feel the responsibility that his father, the Wave Wind Water Sect, had passed on to him through Nine-tails. This made him work extremely hard and slowly accept what he had experienced in the past four years.
"The yellow flash of the wooden leaf, this title is really cool!”Naruto couldn't help but laugh as he shouted. He had always been very happy with his father's title in the ninja realm.
"You're indeed very cool. You're very similar to your father, especially when it comes to relationships. He also started pursuing your mother at this age.”The group revealed the secret of the water gate.
Naruto grinned. He sounded like a guy who cared a lot about emotions.
"Do you want to see your father with your own eyes?”Tuan Zang asked with a smile.
"Eh?" Naruto didn't quite understand what Danzo meant.
"This time, I'll release the seal in your body and let you see your father!”Tuan Zang said with a smile and walked forward quickly.
Naruto widened his eyes and hurriedly followed behind Tanzo, asking anxiously,""What do you mean, Uncle Tanzo? Is my father still alive? Tell me quickly!"
They arrived at the familiar seal one after another. The iron prison was completely covered by the seal that Tuan Zang had set up the last time he came. The nine-tailed creature inside did not emit any aura, as if it was a dead object.
"I'm guessing the first thing that big fox will say when it comes out is,'Old man!'" Hehehe."
Tanzo did not reply. He formed a seal in his hand and slapped it directly on Naruto's seal.
As the outermost Eight Trigrams seal on his belly dissipated, the entire space of consciousness in front of him began to rumble, and the wall that was formed by the seal began to slowly show twisted cracks.
Bang!
As a violent smacking sound came from the inside of the wall, the wall in front of them shattered into several pieces, slowly turning transparent and disappearing in front of Danzou and Naruto.
The familiar iron cage appeared in front of them again. On the other side of the iron cage, a huge creature was staring at them with its scarlet eyes in the dark shadows.
He did not speak as Naruto had expected. Nine-Tailed did not even resist much. He just lay quietly in the iron cage and curled up his body, calmly staring at the two people in front of him.
"I'm quite happy to see that you're still alive.”
Facing such a calm Nine-Tailed, although Tuan Zang was surprised, he was not surprised.
After all, this old fox had a lot of schemes in the original novel. Although he looked extremely irritable on the surface, he actually had a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He was definitely not the kind of Ninja Beast that could be fooled with a few words.
"Let's make a deal, kid. I can lend you my strength, but you have to kill this old guy beside you.”Nine-Tailed looked at Naruto and said.
"Stop joking, Nine-Tails!" Naruto loudly rejected Nine-Tailed's request.
Hearing Naruto's firm refusal, Nine-Tailed grinned and continued,"" You should have felt my power by now. With such a powerful force as your backing, there are many places in the entire Ninja Realm that you can go to. Don't you want to escape from this Woodleaf Village? Think about how those people treated you when you were young.”
"You stinky fox, aren't you also locked in this cage with such powerful strength? What's there to boast about?”Naruto glanced at him and said with disdain.
Nine-Tailed remained calm in the face of Naruto's sarcasm. Although she was deeply moved by his words, she did not show it too much and continued to lure Naruto to use her power.
His original intention was to split the relationship between the two people in front of him so that the old man in front of him would be afraid of Naruto and find an opportunity to devour Naruto in the future.
As long as Renzhu Li's body was in the darkness, Nine-Tails would have a chance to cross the seal and counterattack. At that time, it was not impossible to use Renzhu Li's body to be reborn.
However, Tanzo did not react to Nine-Tailed's words at all. If he knew what Nine-Tailed was thinking, he would probably laugh out loud. Not to mention the secret hand that the fourth-generation couple left behind to seal Nine-Tailed before they died, with his current strength, he was not afraid of Nine-Tailed, let alone Naruto who had mastered the power of the Tailed Beast.
Ignoring the conversation between the human and fox, Tuan Zang came to the front of the iron prison to observe the seal on it.
He had already said that he wanted Naruto to meet the fourth generation. Whether it was to appease or to make Naruto's heart lean more towards him, this was a good choice.
According to the original story, when Payne attacked Koba, Naruto was bewitched by Nine-Tailed and reached out to tear open the seal, but it triggered the dark hand left behind by the fourth generation. The consciousness he left behind appeared and helped Naruto repair the seal and appease him.
Now that Tuan Zang knew that the fourth generation had left a consciousness in this seal, he naturally would not waste time tearing the seal open. With a simple hand seal and the help of his spiritual power, Tuan Zang found a sleeping consciousness in the seal. Without a doubt, this sleeping consciousness was the fourth generation's Fire Shadow Wave Feng Shui Gate hidden in the seal.
"You stinky fox, I'll make you submit to me sooner or later!”
With Tanzo's support, Naruto confidently stood in front of the iron prison and made his declaration to Nine-Tailed.
"Your previous generations of strength couldn't even make me submit to you. You little brat, stop dreaming.”Nine-Tailed said as he lay in the iron prison, his voice full of disdain.
Although he had been bickering with Naruto, his consciousness had been observing the situation of the group trove. That old fellow had been observing the seal on the iron prison. He did not know what conspiracy he was up to.
"I…Why did I wake up early?”
However, at this moment, a fourth voice appeared in the spacious sealed space. It was a voice that Nine-tails was familiar with and hated.
"Watergate!"
Nine-Tailed's eyes widened in disbelief as he stood up from the iron prison. He stared at the golden-haired man in front of him. That smile and that head of golden hair had long been imprinted in his heart.
A deep voice was squeezed out from between his teeth. It was filled with hatred. He could not help but wave the nine tails behind him. The crimson tail beast chakra was wantonly in the sealed space.
It wasn't the first time he had been sealed, but the only person who had his consciousness split in half during the sealing process was that guy from the Wave Wind Water Sect. He was the only one who knew the pain of being torn apart.
This was the first time he had felt such intense pain in a thousand years.
"Yo, Nine-tails, you're still so energetic!”The first thing Watergate's consciousness did after waking up was to observe the seal. After confirming that there was no problem, he raised his head and smiled at Nine-Tailed.
On the other hand, Naruto was completely stunned. He looked at the golden-haired man standing not far away from the iron prison. That handsome face had a gentle smile like his own. He recognized the other party's identity at a glance.
"You…you actually still have such a trick up your sleeve even after you're dead!”Nine-Tails roared furiously as it jumped around in the iron prison. It did not care about the damage coming from the seal of the iron prison as it continued to swing its claws.
The moment the water gate appeared, he already knew the other party's purpose. This purpose also dispelled his previous thoughts. With this guy guarding the gate, no matter how much he bewitched Naruto, he would not be able to break the seal.
After greeting him, the Wave of Fengshui Sect no longer paid attention to Nine-Tailed. With him here, Nine-Tailed's chakra did not step out of the iron prison at all, and it would not affect Naruto in any way.
He had already noticed Naruto staring at him in a daze not far away and recognized that this was his son. Although he really wanted to catch up with Naruto, he resisted the urge to look at the young man next to him and asked,""Are you from Muye?”
The young man looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"Shuimen, you didn't forget about me, did you?”Tuan Zang smiled and pointed at his chin. There was an unusually obvious mark there.
It was a scar left behind by the Pot King when he was young, but because of this scar, it did not affect his handsome face. Instead, it added a lot of dignity.
" You..." Shui Men was stunned. He stared at Tuan Zang for a long time before he opened his mouth and said,""Are you Lord Tanzang?"
Although he had never seen Danzo when he was young, this did not affect his ability to recognize Danzo from the scar on his chin. Moreover, there were many similarities between Danzo's old appearance and his younger appearance.
"You finally recognized me." Tuan Zang smiled and said," Although I know you have many questions in your heart, since you have passed away, you don't have to care about the living anymore."”
"And you don't have much time left. The main reason I woke you up this time is to let your son see you. Hurry up and talk to him.”
Although the original owner's relationship with Shuimen was not harmonious, it was not bad, so Tanzo was not worried that he would speak ill of him to Naruto. Besides, Shuimen was not the kind of person who would speak ill of him behind his back.
After confirming that it was Mu Ye's people, and it was the group, Shuimen's heart was finally at ease.
During his time in office, although Tanzang was not convinced by Naruto, he was still honest and had no doubts about his loyalty to Mu Ye.
Finally, he turned his head to his son behind him. His eyes were filled with guilt and joy. He felt guilty that he and his wife had passed away when Naruto was born, but he was happy that he still had a chance to see his son.
Danzo did not disturb Naruto and Shuizun's conversation. He left the sealed space with his consciousness. Now that Shuizun was in the sealed space, Nine-Tailed did not have to worry at all. Even if he was furious now, he would not be able to affect Naruto.
"How's the situation?"
Right after exiting the sealed space, Yuan Fei Sun Slash opened his mouth and asked.
The entire process was too calm. Naruto's body did not even reveal any trace of the tail beast chakra, making Yuan Fei very puzzled whether the seal had been lifted or not.
"It has been removed, but there was a small accident.”Tuan Zang stood up and stretched his muscles.
"What accident?" Yuan Fei asked nervously.
"Shuizun left a secret trick in Naruto's body. He is currently talking to Naruto in the sealed space, so it might take some time for Naruto to wake up.”Tuan Zang explained.
Hearing Tuan Zang's explanation, a trace of disbelief flashed across Yuan Fei's eyes. But at the same time, he felt somewhat guilty and gratified in his heart.
"Watergate…Is he still alive?" Yuan Fei hesitated for a moment and asked. If Watergate's consciousness body had always lived in Naruto's body, then he would somewhat not dare to face Watergate.
"He's already dead. The only thing left in the sealed space is his consciousness. It will dissipate when the chakras are exhausted.”Tuan Zang shook his head.
And the nervousness in Yuan Fei's heart also slowly recovered. With a sigh, that old face seemed to have a few more wrinkles. The various aging organs in his body were aching faintly.
Even though he was dead, he was still contributing to Koba. It was the right choice for him to choose to become the fourth generation Naruto.
But it was also because his sense of responsibility made Yuan Fei feel overly guilty. He did not take good care of Naruto according to the agreement, so his mood was very complicated right now.
"Take it easy. If your body gets a little more agitated, I'll probably be able to attend your funeral earlier.”Tuan Zang glanced at him and said.
Taking a few deep breaths, Yuan Fei Sun Slash calmed the excitement in his heart and retorted with a cold snort,""Don't worry, I'll definitely die later than you. I have to attend your funeral first.”
"Then I'm looking forward to it." Tuan Zang smiled and replied," But I do have a question to ask you.”
Tuan Zang instructed Kakashi and the others to take good care of Naruto and left the training ground with Yuan Fei one after the other.
This was Muye, and the surroundings were being monitored by the Dark Group. There was also Kakashi following by the side. Although Naruto's consciousness was immersed in the sealed space, there was absolutely no problem in terms of safety.
Walking on the streets of Muye, the passersby were all smiling. The war had not begun yet, and the news had not spread in the village yet. These civilians were not affected at all.
"Do you plan to die of old age in this forest or sacrifice yourself for the village?”Tuan Zang asked. He was hinting at something, but Yuan Fei could not tell what he meant at this time.
"Of course, it's for the sake of the village.”Yuan Fei coughed and said," I might really not be able to hold on for much longer. Zailai also rejected my request and didn't return to the village. He set off directly to find Tsunake.”
His body was getting worse by the day. He could only pray that he would find Tsunei soon.
As expected, Tuanzang asked,""How do you plan to solve the problem of Okate's hemophobia?”
"There's always a way. As the granddaughter of the first generation, her heart is not as fragile as it seems.”
Unknowingly, he had already walked to a park with fewer people. Yuan Fei sat down on a wooden chair and looked at the children playing in the park. He took out his old tobacco pipe and played with it leisurely, enjoying the beauty of this moment.
Tuan Zang also sat down by the side. He was waiting for Yuan Fei to speak first.
After waiting for quite a while, Yuan Fei frowned and said,""The Daimyo called Asama back to the village. The reason was to give the young people more opportunities. The original position was replaced by a Jounin trained by the Daimyo Prefecture.”
He took a puff of his pipe and blew out a ring of smoke. Although he did not want to discuss official business at such a peaceful moment, he could not help but open his mouth to ask for his old friend's opinion.
"Something is wrong." Tuan Zang also frowned.
"Something is indeed wrong. The people of the Dark Group have noticed that the other ninjas guarding the Daming Mansion are missing, and Asma was ambushed on the way back. She is now lying in a hospital bed with serious injuries.”Yuan Fei said, his voice somewhat deep.
Asma was seriously injured?
Tuan Zang gave Yuan Fei a strange glance. His son was seriously injured and could still be so calm. But he did not know about this matter. The world line was gradually deviated from the original work. He had already lost the initiative in some small matters.
The entire plan was set in stone, and he had sent all the people from the roots to various countries to investigate. As of now, he did not have much information about the Country of Fire.
Secretly paying attention to Tuan Zang's expression, Yuan Fei heaved a sigh of relief. He was still somewhat worried that Tuan Zang had also gotten involved in this matter. After all, when Tuan Zang returned to the village back then, his relationship with Daming seemed to be quite friendly.
If even Tuan Zang betrayed Mu Ye, then Yuan Fei would have to consider whether he should transfer most of the people in the village.
"The Dark Group found out that one of the guardian ninjas was very close to the people of the Wind Country and had left the Country of Fire for the Hidden Sand Village.”Yuan Fei's face was gloomy. There were many matters of all sizes. Now, that person from the Daming Manor was causing trouble for him again.
"It seems that Kazuma has bewitched Daimyo again. I also went to the Temple of Fire to bring back that brat Kong after I noticed the commotion in the Daimyo Mansion.”Tuan Zang said calmly, slowly guiding Yuan Fei's thoughts.
Yuan Fei nodded his head. Recently, combining the information that Tuan Zang had brought Kong back to the village, plus the information that the Dark Operation had found, he could guess it too.
But before he could continue, he heard Tuan Zang add,"But whether Kazuma bewitched Daimyo or Daimyo had such thoughts in his heart is still unknown.”
His heart thumped. Yuan Fei had no choice but to sigh that only this old friend could speak out the thoughts in his heart.
The two rebellions both started from the guardian ninjas by Daimyo's side. To say that Daimyo did not have such thoughts, Yuan Fei did not believe it.
However, because there was no reason for the daimyo to stir up internal strife in this chaotic period, he did not dare to clarify this idea. He chose to believe that Kazuma had bewitched the daimyo like Xiao Chun and Men Yan.
Xiao Chun and Men Yan would never have thought that Daming, as an ordinary person without any strength, would have the thought of rebelling if he could only rely on Woodleaf Village. However, Tuan Zang had thought of it, and it coincided with their own thoughts.
"He wants to gather the power of the ninjas into his hands.”Tuan Zang said affirmatively. He was not surprised that he could think of this. After all, the identity of the daimyo was like the monarch in the history of his previous life. Although he was an ordinary person, he controlled the fate of the entire country, balancing the talented civil officials and the experienced generals.
The reason why the Daming Manor was able to control the Fire Country was because of his blood.
Before the ninjas appeared and before the Fire Country was as big as it was now, it was their bloodline that controlled the country.
Daimyo looked down on commoners and ninjas due to his bloodline. He was proud of his nobility, but he had never shown it to commoners. He would only show it to ninjas like them.
The commoners of the Fire Country trusted Daimyo, which was why Daimyo was able to sit in this position as an ordinary person. Moreover, his status was higher than Naruto's.
After all, although this world was called the Ninja Realm, most of the people were ordinary people. All the ninjas only accounted for less than 10% of the total population.
Once a ninja made a move against a daimyo, not only would they be ostracized by civilians, but even ninjas would hunt them down, not to mention their reputation and status in the entire Ninja Realm. They were like rats on the street.
It was for this reason that the group trove needed to be planned for so long. The Holy Mother System needed to be respected and respected by others, so that others could trust you.
It would be easy to unify the entire country and the Ninja Realm through force, but this would cause many people in the country to be dissatisfied with him. Although he had power, he could not break away from the rules of the Virgin Mary System if he wanted to become stronger. He needed to leave a good impression in the hearts of others.
To put it bluntly, his status was not a hero in a chaotic world, but a savior!
Having a headache, Yuan Fei took another puff of his tobacco pipe. He thought of countermeasures in distress. Daimyo wanted to make a move against them, but they could not easily make a move against Daimyo because they still needed evidence to present to the entire Fire Country's people.
They could only wait for Daming to bring people to their door and could not take the initiative to attack.
" From the current situation, it's very likely that the Daimyo has allied with the people of the Wind Country. The number of ninjas that the Daimyo Mansion has trained is still unknown, but there are at least 12 ninjas at the Jounin level.”Danzo analyzed the power that Daimyo might have now.
"I'll bring a few people over to the Wind Country to take a look. If there's anything unusual, I'll suppress it immediately. However, you have to ask Zirai to come back with Tsunami as soon as possible.”
With a depressed face, Yuan Fei shook his head and replied,""Let the others handle the Wind Country's matters. You should stay in Muye. My body might not be able to handle it.”
The current situation could only be considered the worst case scenario, which was that Daimyo really planned to invade Muye with foreign countries to break the rules. At that time, he might not be able to control the situation in the village.
"No, I'm worried about the others. No matter how much internal strife there is in the Fire Country, we can't let outsiders invade.”Danzang refused righteously.
He could not stay in Muye after Daimyo's plan began. Otherwise, with his strength, how could the people of Daimyo have the opportunity to attack Muye?
If he stayed in the village and did not make a move, it would damage his reputation.
Tuan Zang already said it to this extent, Yuan Fei also did not make a sound to stop him.
"I'll settle the Wind Country. The ninjas trained by the Daming Prefecture shouldn't be able to compare to the ones trained by the Woodleaf Village.”Tuan Zang continued.
"Kong was brought back by me to take away the Chakra tail beast. It should have made them wary and know that we have sensed it. Even so, they still chose to attack. They should have a corresponding method.”
Currently, Koba's strength was much stronger than in the original novel. Not only did the Uchiha clan still exist, but even the new forces like Naruto had grown up. It should not be a problem for them to deal with the Daimyo Prefecture.
For the sake of the future, this plan was necessary. The Akatsuki Organization was being held back by Uchiha Weasel, and the other countries were busy with the war. Now was definitely the best time to plan for the entire Country of Fire.
However, casualties were inevitable in this process. What the team trove could do was to reduce casualties and get rid of those who deserved to die as soon as possible, leaving more people who could be used.
"How many people do you plan to bring to the border?”Yuan Fei asked.
" The village needs manpower to deal with possible attacks. I'll just bring the people from the roots over. The people from the Wind Country didn't raise a large-scale army, so my people can still hold them off.”Tuan Zang replied.
But Yuan Fei frowned. Don't be too confident. If you really die in front of me, I won't go to your funeral.”
"Don't worry, I'm going to bring Naruto and the others.”Tanzang continued," Kakashi will come too.”
That last sentence was to make Yuan Fei feel at ease. Yuan Fei's trust in Kakashi was very high, feeling that he deeply acknowledged his will of fire.
"Bring them along?" Yuan Fei's eyes were filled with doubt.
" I plan to let Naruto try to familiarize himself with tail beast transformation. If it's feasible, even if the Wind Country starts a large-scale war, we can still defend with Nine-tails.”Tuan Zang explained.
"That's true." Yuan Fei nodded his head and agreed to this suggestion of the group hiding. Using human pillar strength was very dangerous, but it was different with the group hiding at the side.
Muye's current situation was not optimistic. He put aside the unhappiness between him and Tuan Zang. After all, the only person in Muye who was more loyal to Muye than him was Tuan Zang.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that this treasure trove was no longer the original one.
"Since the matter has been decided, I'll prepare to rush to the border as soon as possible.”
The plan of Daimyo and the others was carried out much faster than he had imagined. Perhaps it was because of the stimulation of Kong that Kazuma became suspicious, so he hid and prepared to leave the wooden leaf as soon as possible.
But after thinking for a moment, he added,"Arrange for people to clear out the emergency room in the next few days. I feel that they won't wait too long.”
The emergency shelter was built under Muye's many Naruto statues, enough to accommodate half of the village's population. When Muye was attacked, all non-combatants would enter the emergency shelter to hide. Tuan Zang hoped to use this emergency shelter to retain most of the population.
Yuan Fei nodded and could not resist coughing a few times again. Looking at Tuan Zang's departing back view, he felt a little pity but was also filled with desire.
If only he could return to his youth
On the way home, Tanzo made a trip to Shinhachi Shimura's training ground and asked Noyo to gather the scattered Root Ninjas. The huge information chain in Root was activated, and the situation in the Wind Country was quickly compiled into a brief report and sent to Tanzo.
Tuan Zang didn't expect the Fire Country's Daimyo to ally with the Wind Country's people to attack Mu Ye. They had even formed a friendship before he started guiding them.
During the battle between the Hidden Cloud Village and the Tuan Zang, the Country of Fire's daimyo had already established a connection with the Country of Wind's daimyo. Even the resources that the Tuan Zang had handed over from the negotiations had entered the bag of the Wind Country's daimyo.
Tanzo leading Kazuma to find the daimyo was only an opportunity that sped up the speed of the fire country's daimyo's plan. It seemed that it was because of Kong's exposure that the daimyo decided to cooperate with the wind country.
However, it was a pity that Daimyo had miscalculated the strength of the ninjas. The strength of the ninjas in this world was not as simple as Daimyo had imagined. Relying on the cooperation with the Wind Country, one's noble bloodline, and reputation to control the Fire Country would definitely not work.
Not to mention the others, just Naruto's strength with the help of the tail beast was not something that could be solved with numbers. The best outcome of this internal conflict would be the Fire Country splitting up, and the worst outcome would be the destruction of the country.
However, this matter could not be determined by the team. After all, the future could not be foreseen. Perhaps Daimyo still had a backup plan.
What he needed to do now was to bring Naruto, the Ninja, and the other two to the border to defend.
In fact, Tanzo did not want to bring the three of them along because this internal strife was undoubtedly a good opportunity to train. However, considering the changes in the current internal strife, for the safety of the three, Tanzo decided to bring them along.
After all, following him to the border would also give them a good opportunity to train. The three of them were for the sake of the generals in the group's possession. Moreover, he had spent a lot of time nurturing the three of them. He could not lose them at this time.
This internal conflict had already exceeded the expectations of the group, but it was not a big problem. In any case, with his current strength, he could completely stabilize the situation, so he did not care much.
Before leaving, Tuan Zang spent a few days preparing for the deployment of Muye. The team that was originally in the research and development base had all moved out of Muye Village, and many roots were waiting outside the village at any time, waiting for the enemy to arrive and rescue the villagers in time.
There were also people keeping an eye on the younger generation that the village's group had high hopes for. These people were all future talents, and the group could not bear to see them sacrifice themselves in another internal strife.
Shinhachi Shimura, who had already mastered the Tailed Beast Chakra, had also seen his team. Because the Tailed Beast Chakra on his body might be affected by the nine tails in Naruto's body, the team did not bring them along this time. Instead, they were allowed to carry out other missions with Zhishui.
All the Root Ninjas who were still in the Country of Fire were summoned back by Tanzo to make preparations, including Maitekai who had recovered from his injuries.
The order that Tuan Zang had given them did not mention how to defend against the enemy or counterattack. He only had one order, and that was to protect the villagers in the leaves and the people he valued.
"Tuan... Lord Tanzo, are we the only ones on this mission?”
It was a pity that the group trove had yet to see a scene of Kakashi being late. The day before they were about to set off, Yuan Fei gave Kakashi's team a mission to follow the group trove to the border.
The moment he received the mission, Yuan Fei had already explained clearly to Kakashi the importance and danger of this mission, making him listen to the group treasury's arrangements for everything.
But now, Kakashi was standing at the entrance of the village with his three subordinates. At this moment, he was staring blankly at Tanzo and Nono Yu, who was standing beside him.
If he had not heard wrongly what Lord Naruto had said yesterday, they were rushing to the border between the Fire Country and the Wind Country to defend against the enemy forces that might appear.
Regardless of whether the people of the Wind Country had broken the peace agreement or not, they should not be the only ones who sent the Ninja Army into the Country of Fire, right?
"Don't worry. There are still quite a few Ninja soldiers guarding the border. This is just a guess, and Muye needs more soldiers.”Tuan Zang said with a smile.
"Teacher, let's go quickly.”Sasuke urged. He did not care how many people were involved in the mission. As long as Sensei was there, any mission would not be a problem.
He hoped to train himself through real battles as soon as possible so that he could catch up to Uchiha Weitake's footsteps as soon as possible.
"That's right, Uncle Tanzo. Since everyone is here, let's hurry up and set off.”Naruto also urged. He had become familiar with Kakashi over the past few days and knew that he was not a serious person.
Moreover, he had heard from his father that Kakashi seemed to be his father's disciple, so Naruto did not treat him as an outsider and directly addressed Danzo as Uncle Danzo in front of him.
"Then let's set off." Tanzo nodded and turned around to lead Noya in front. The three little ones quickly caught up, leaving Kakashi alone at the entrance of the village in a daze.
Naruto trio were unclear. Kakashi had heard Yuan Fei describe the entire matter in detail. Although the mission seemed to be able to march into the Fire Country, from the extent of the information, the Wind Country's march into the Fire Country was already something that could be confirmed.
There were not many Ninja soldiers at the borders. At the start of the war, they would mostly rely on the city walls to defend the first wave before informing the country to send reinforcements.
If the Wind Country's enemies really entered the Fire Country, Mu Ye would undoubtedly be attacked. At that time, there wouldn't be any reinforcements.
Could the few of them and the Ninja Army at the border really stop the Ninja Army of the Wind Country?
Kakashi began to suspect that the group had already colluded with the enemy and joined the daimyo. Now, they were actually leading them to their deaths.
"Teacher Kakashi, are you daydreaming?”
A loud roar came from afar and woke Kakashi, who was deep in thought. It was only then that he realized that Tuan Zang and the others had already walked far away and were waiting for him by the roadside.
Turning his head to take one last look at Muye's village entrance, Kakashi had the illusion that the next time he returned, Muye would no longer exist.
He shook his head and tossed the thought to the back of his mind. How could it be possible? There were still Uchiha and the Hinata Clan in the village. How could the ninjas trained by the Daimyo Prefecture pose a threat to Kanye? If something really happened, it would only be the few of them. There was no one else who could face the Wind Country's army with just a few people.
In a few flashes, Kakashi had caught up with the team.
