Chapter 301 The Key
A feeling that Naruto himself couldn't even describe.
Tsunade, who is in the main position, feels very troubled and shocked. What kind of strength is the fourth generation of Raikage? Tsunade still has a good psychological foundation. As a person who has had several outstanding performances in the Third Ninja World War This fourth generation Raikage.
Whether it's speed or strength, they are among the best in the ninja world.
Kumo Hidden Village has always been considered a powerful ninja village only under Konoha. The individual quality of Kumo ninja is very high. There are more than 3,000 Kumo ninjas, led by the Fourth Raikage personally, and there are The two-tailed Jinchuuriki is here. To be honest, with such a configuration, Tsunade feels that even if she takes action, she may not be able to easily win the Ninjamura.
Unless he and Jiraiya take action together, he can do it.
The rest is nothing more than filling in the human sea tactics.
If Konoha has such a foundation, why should Taki Ninja do it?
Three tailed beasts is indeed an exaggeration, but looking at the history of the ninja world, how many people can truly fully utilize the power of tailed beasts?
If everyone was that strong, Konoha's past three ninja wars would have been even more exhausting.
At the end of the day, a jinchuriki is a jinchuriki, and a tailed beast is a tailed beast.
The two cannot really be equated together.
But even in such a situation where the conditions of all parties were not very favorable from the outside, Menma was actually able to lead the Taki-nin in a frontal battle to forcefully defeat the Takigakure Village led by the Fourth Raikage! ?
And the most terrifying thing is that Menma single-handedly crushed the Fourth Raikage.
This strength.
This means.
"!!?"
How could Tsunade not feel heart palpitations and shocks.
The most important thing is that the defeat of Yunyin Village completely disrupted their plan. After reading the contents recorded in the entire scroll, Tsunade's expression became uncertain.
But Tsunade is a hero among girls after all.
After just a moment, I adjusted my mentality and organized my thoughts.
"Tell Jiraiya that everything will be done according to the judgment of their front line. I will contact the major ninja villages so that they don't have to rush and can take a closer look at the situation. I will leave it to the front line to make judgments before the battle."
Tsunade took a deep breath and said calmly.
There was Jiraiya and Shikaku on the front line, and Tsunade still believed in it. She didn't need to interfere too much, just doing the logistics work was enough.
Tsunade definitely supports Jiraiya and Shikaku's judgment 100%.
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
The Konoha ninja in the lower position immediately bowed and replied.
Following from that.
He also got up and strode away.
"Shizune, the information on this frontline should be immediately passed on to the three advisor elders for review, and their opinions should also be sought."
After that Konoha ninja left.
Tsunade also turned to look at Shizune on one side and handed over the scroll in her hand.
"Yes, Tsunade-sama."
Shizune also understood the importance of the matter and immediately responded solemnly.
"Naruto, I know your determination, but now is really not the time for you to go out. Just stay in the village. I will consider it as appropriate, but now, you can't mess around, do you understand?"
Tsunade looked at Naruto on the other side and said with a very serious expression.
Naruto opened his mouth, looking like he was hesitating to speak.
But in the end, he nodded silently and replied softly: "I understand, Granny Tsunade."
Naruto is indeed still the same Naruto, there is no change in his optimistic, positive, cheerful and perseverance personality.
But it’s still because of different childhood circumstances.
The Naruto in this life still knows more and matures earlier than the Naruto in the original work.
After all, he has been carrying the honor of being the 'Son of the Fourth Hokage' since he was a child.
What is carried under that sunny appearance is still very heavy.
"Well, let's go back and take a rest first. Believe me and Grandpa Jiraiya, we will handle it properly."
Looking at Naruto's obviously depressed mood.
Tsunade sighed softly in her heart and said in an extremely soft tone.
In Tsunade's heart.
Naruto's status is still quite high, and Tsunade really treats Naruto as her closest family member.
"Um."
Naruto nodded slightly.
Then he turned around, opened the door, and slowly left.
"fox"
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
And just after Naruto left, under Tsunade's soft call, a figure suddenly appeared in the shadow on the left.
He was dressed in pitch black and had an animal mask on his face.
It was someone who was directly under the ANBU of the Hokage.
The cold and harsh aura permeated his body.
It is also enough to prove that the strength of this ANBU person is also at the Jonin level.
"The 24-hour protection must not be interrupted. If we strengthen the manpower, we must ensure that Naruto cannot leave Konoha. You understand what I mean."
Tsunade said with a serious expression.
"Yes, please rest assured, Hokage-sama, my subordinates will definitely not let Master Naruto leave Konoha."
This ANBU person also responded in a very low and firm tone.
Everyone in the Ninja Village knew that Naruto had a special status.
This is not only because of the Fourth Hokage.
It was also because of Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage.
These Anbu, who are directly under the jurisdiction of the Hokage, need to pay even more special attention.
‘Old man, although I don’t want to say it, it’s really all your fault. . . . ’
Tsunade looked back at the four pictures of Hokage hanging on the left wall of the office. Her eyes were fixed on the third picture of her teacher. She couldn't help but shook her head slightly and sighed inwardly. Said in one breath.
If Menma and Naruto were allowed to live together in the Hidden Leaf Village as the sons of the Hokage 12 years ago, how could such a result happen now?
It can only be that all this is fate.
The other side.
Naruto, who had already left, did not know that Tsunade had stepped up surveillance of his whereabouts. Almost all of them were elite members of the ANBU, and these Konoha ninjas were following and monitoring him 24 hours a day. Ordinary people were indeed There is no escape.
Unless one is strong enough to be at the Shadow level, and must be very good at dodging and sneaking, otherwise, even if the strength is indeed enough to easily break through the interception of these Anbu, it will never be possible to do so quietly.
Not to mention that there are huge perception barriers and patrolling guards around.
It is really impossible for ordinary people to live without Konoha.
Naruto himself knew this very well.
It must also be said that Tsunade's defense is very reasonable, because even though Naruto responded well on the surface just now, in fact, when Naruto turned around and left, he still made up his mind to find an opportunity. Leave Konoha.
What is the situation on the front line?
It still worried Naruto a lot.
‘Menma! I will definitely bring you back, and Sasuke, and you too, even if I break your hands and feet, this is my way of ninja! ! ’
Naruto took a deep breath, and then strode towards his home. He would then plan carefully how to leave the village quietly without being discovered by others.
Big changes on the front lines.
This is just the beginning of the waves it has caused.
After Tsunade's order was given.
The three old guys in the village also received the news respectively. Mito Katoyan and Koharu who transferred to the dormitory were okay. Although they were shocked, they basically agreed with Tsunade's order. Now it is true that they can't mess around. coming.
Uzumaki Menma's strength and the power burst out from Takigakure.
It really exceeded previous expectations.
Be cautious, you must be cautious.
This is also a habitual thinking developed by the two consultant elders over decades.
However, the two advisory elders could forcibly calm down their mentality, but the Dark of Konoha couldn't do this.
"Peng!"
"Crash!"
In the darkest underground chamber.
The equipment was directly smashed.
Danzo's single exposed pupil also showed an extremely cold color.
"Uzumaki Menma!!!"
It's not anger, it should be more jealous.
Lao Tuanzi's lifelong pursuit has always been very direct and simple, that is, to obtain the highest power, ascend to the position of Hokage, and then lead Konoha to dominate the entire ninja world. This is a series of 'target values'!
Sharingan is also good.
Wood escape is fine.
Including Kyuubi.
They have long been regarded by Danzo as forbidden powers that can only be used and controlled by him.
Therefore, Uzumaki Menma used the power of the Nine-Tails and led the Taki ninjas, who seemed weak to outsiders, to defeat the Kumogakure Village led by the Fourth Raikage himself.
For Danzo, an old coin.
The fire of jealousy in the heart is the strongest.
"Send someone to the front line and tell Wu and the others that all operations are suspended. For now, just follow Jiraiya's orders."
But after the rage.
Danzo still forced himself to calm down.
Although the Dark of Konoha's tricks at certain times seemed to be very stupid, they were all blinded by his own greed. He both underestimated and overestimated the enemy. Own.
This time the situation is different.
Menma's record is clearly in front of him.
Although Danzo still has a little confidence in his own strength (with the Wood Release and the Mangekyou Sharingan, he naturally thinks he can suppress the Kyuubi)
But the people on the front lines obviously don’t see enough.
Plan adjustments are what should be done.
There are only so many people left under him, and he cannot continue to sacrifice them needlessly. Danzo does not want to become a mere commander.
If he really wanted to take action against Mian Ma, he would have to do it himself.
And he can't leave Konoha casually. Lao Tuanzi still cherishes his life. Unless he is completely sure or it is an extremely important matter that requires him to leave the village, otherwise, all this should be considered in the long term. Bar.
"Yes, Lord Danzo!"
In the dark.
A tall figure suddenly lowered his head in response, then straightened up and left the place to carry out Danzo's order.
'Uzumaki Menma, Tsunade, hehe, wait for me. I will wait patiently until you guys show their loopholes! ! ’
Danzo's expression also became gloomier than ever at this moment.
Sunagakure Village hesitated.
A timely stop at Kirigakure Village.
A temporary wait and see of Konoha Hidden Village.
There is also the terrible silence of Kumogakure Village, which makes the prestige of Takigakure Village led by Menma further become prominent in the ninja world.
The four major ninja villages seem to be different.
But the result is the same approach.
It also makes the attention of other small ninja villages converge on the Land of Earth and the Hidden Rock Village, as the victors of the Third Ninja World War in name like Konoha.
And it is the ninja village that killed the Third Raikage.
Originally, the Hidden Rock Village should be a notable ninja village that is almost on par with Konoha, but the family knows their own business. In order to kill the Third Raikage in the Third War, the Hidden Rock Village also paid a heavy price. Ohnoki is the kind of shadow who only cares about practical benefits and does not care about false reputation. In the past ten years, he has chosen to watch all the affairs of the ninja world with a cold eye. As long as it is not closely related to himself, he will never intervene.
Including the conflict between Konoha and the Hidden Cloud Village a few years ago, the Hidden Rock Village has always shown a lack of interest.
Unless Konoha and Kumogakure really start a full-scale war, then Ohnoki will really get involved. Otherwise, the Third Tsuchikage really doesn't care about local clashes, even if Kumogakure is the biggest enemy of his own ninja village.
Ohnoki also has his own pride.
This includes the so-called alliance agreement with Menma.
Ohnoki has always faced all this with a playful attitude. The old man really doesn't think Menma can do anything big.
So what about the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?
After all, he is just a young man, right?
Just become a chess piece that he can use. However, the development of things is far beyond Ohnoki's expectations.
It's just such a short period of time.
Menma has exceeded Ohnoki's expectations again and again, especially this time with the Kumogakure.
War is really always the best way for any person, any country, or any ninja village to become famous.
As long as you can step on the shoulders of the strong.
Then this person and this ninja village will definitely become the existence that the whole world pays attention to.
At this moment, the name of Uzumaki Menma was completely resounding throughout the ninja world, and it was completely different from the previous form.
In the past, when people mentioned Menma, including Ohnoki, they usually marked him with names like "the son of the Fourth Hokage" and "the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki".
But now.
When people mentioned Menma.
That was completely different from the previous idea.
'Uzumaki Menma' was one of the most powerful people in the ninja world.
Ohnoki was going to refresh his understanding of Menma again.
It can be said that Ohnoki, who had just issued an order to make corresponding adjustments and was ready to see how the situation would change, received the news that Menma led the Taki Ninja to defeat the Cloud Ninja Army led by the Fourth Raikage in just a few days.
The Third Tsuchikage, who had seen many storms, also felt a little dazzled.
Another thing was that he responded to Ohnoki's previous order to his son to strengthen the connection between him and Menma.
Menma also sent someone to contact him at the same time.
It was almost at the same time as the news of the defeat of the Cloud Ninja.
This made Ohnoki, who had always been an old horse waiting to be stable, wonder for the first time whether he was really old.
