The Hokage Wouldn't Be Taken Down So Easily

Gaara is being Sasuke!

"Is this the Sand Armor?"

Sasuke punched Gaara's face, shattering the sand, then beckoned and chuckled, "Come on!"

"If you don't make a move, I'll make one first!"

In the audience, Hinata couldn't stand Sasuke's fighting style anymore. She looked around and saw Neji first, but didn't see Choji.

"Well!"

Hinata sighed.

Hinata didn't bring any snacks because she was taking exams and had to participate in a competition.

I originally thought Choji would bring it, but it seems Choji got beaten up by Neji and ended up in the hospital...

In August, the sun blazed overhead, its rays intense and scorching.

The battle between Sasuke and Gaara is in full swing, with one climax after another.

Meanwhile, Orochimaru's Konoha Crush Plan was drawing ever closer.

Konoha had already sensed the approaching war.

Although there is only some information about Orochimaru for the time being, and the Sand Village may also be involved, Konoha has no idea how the enemy will attack.

But Konoha has already entered a state of war.

The civilians began to evacuate, and the ninjas had already reached every corner of the village.

Hyuga Clan.

Hyuga Hiashi sent out a portion of the branch family ninjas to assist Konoha in scouting for external enemies, but left more forces behind to defend the Hyuga Clan's stronghold.

No one would say that Hyuga Hiashi's actions were inappropriate. The Byakugan of the Hyuga Main Family is Konoha's strongest strategic weapon besides the Tailed Beasts.

In fact, it wasn't just the Hyuga Clan; at this time, all the major ninja clans would prioritize their own clans over the villages.

Despite the current apparent lack of talent in Konoha, aside from the Third Hokage who single-handedly carries the situation, there are almost no strong individuals left in the village.

But if Konoha really puts its strength into action, even Kumogakure would be no match for Konoha now.

Danzo Jiraiya, who was hiding in the sewers, and Jiraiya and Tsunade, who were traveling abroad, let's not even talk about them for now.

Let's talk about Might Guy. Can I have all four of you Kage come at me at once?

Evening Elephant can take you down in one move, leaving you with absolutely nothing but ashes.

Might Guy really wanted to get serious, he could take down the Kage of Konoha, as well as the Kage of other villages.

After all, Evening Elephant has five speeds!

Furthermore, if the powerful clan leaders joined forces, they could completely keep Orochimaru in Konoha.

The key point is that when the Konoha Crush Plan began in the Original Story, Might Guy didn't even open a single gate, and none of the clan leaders came to the venue to provide support.

It's like... everyone believed that the Third could defeat Orochimaru.

Kakashi and Might Guy, two Elite Jonin, were clearing out the smaller foes in the venue.

Despite being cannon fodder Sound Ninja could be killed with a single punch, the two ended up looking disheveled.

Genma Shiranui has been locked in a standoff with Kazuma, seemingly without exchanging a single blow.

Jiraiya seems to have been providing support from the outside all along...

The key issue is that even the Third himself didn't believe he could defeat Orochimaru.

And all of this... is Danzo's fault.

The Third was still deeply loved by the Konoha; after all, all the ninjas attended his funeral and wept bitterly...

Hinata, who has a deep understanding of Konoha's current strength, has absolutely no worries about the so-called 'Konoha Crush Plan'.

While Konoha is currently facing a period of transition, Sand Village is already in its twilight years.

Since the Fourth Kazekage was killed by Orochimaru, does Sunagakure have any other strong individuals besides Chiyo and Ebizo?

After the Fourth Kazekage died, Kazekage position remained vacant for several years before being taken over by the grown-up Gaara.

As for Orochimaru's Otogakure, apart from a few bloodline ninjas, there are no other strong individuals to speak of.

The younger generation of Konoha has not yet grown up, but there is hope in them.

And Sunagakure is the only hope for Gaara.

So Hinata needs to consider now is how to accumulate enough reputation.

After all, this was a task given to Hinata by her cheap father, Hyuga Hiashi. Before Hyuga Clan, Hinata still had to obey.

At most, I'll just be Hyuga Hiashi more often...

Off the field, Sasuke's battle with Gaara has reached its most crucial moment.

Gaara formed a ball of sand, attempting to communicate with Shukaku and directly enter Tailed Beast Transformation to kill Sasuke... and there was also a certain Byakugan girl.

Until Sasuke's Chidori pierced Gaara's Absolute Defense... the attack finally began.

This is the audience section.

Might Guy, the number one Kakashi fanboy in the Shinobi World, is currently explaining to a group of Genin what Chidori and Lightning Cutter are...

The rookie Genin were shocked, exclaiming repeatedly, and looking at Kakashi with admiration.

Kakashi appears calm and collected on the surface, but he is thoroughly enjoying himself inside.

Naruto looked at Sasuke showing off on the sidelines with envy and jealousy... Hmm! He really is cool!

Feathers drifted slowly down from the sky.

The soft feathers seemed to have a hypnotic effect; Hinata felt dizzy and swayed as if she were about to fall to the ground and fall fast asleep.

"Hinata!"

Kakashi said in a deep voice, "Konoha is now at its most critical juncture, and we need your strength!"

All right!

Hinata Hand Seals: "Open!"

While helping a few of her friends break free from the Genjutsu, Hinata also stepped on Shikamaru, who was pretending to be asleep, several times, including stepping directly on Shikamaru face.

Shikamaru rolled over innocently, looking at Hinata with a heart full of complaints, "I knew it, revenge would come!"

On the high platform of the venue, the Third Hokage and Orochimaru, disguised as the Fourth Kazekage, exchanged a glance.

Orochimaru said calmly, "Let's begin!"

'BOOM——'

Hinata's side instantly turned to look towards the high platform.

Orochimaru, holding the Third hostage, jumped onto the roof. The four Sound Ninja also removed their disguises and stood at the four corners of the roof, rapidly Hand Seals.

"Ninja Technique— Four Violet Flames Formation!"

Off the field, Baki, Temari, and Kankuro from Sand Village stood in front of Gaara, Genma Shiranui stood in front of Sasuke.

These two Elite Jonin from opposing factions are about to begin a standoff that will last for several hours... until the war ends.

Kakashi glanced around and said casually, "There are quite a few enemies here!"

Looking at Konoha's side, several Konoha Ninja in the audience have already broken free of the Genjutsu; there are Jonin and Chunin as well.

As for those around him... Hinata, Naruto, Shikamaru, Neji, Rock Lee, Kiba, and Sasuke off the field...

That's quite a force to be reckoned with.

Might Guy said with a grave expression, "Not only that, the situation has reached its worst point. Take a close look at the high platform in the center..."

Kakashi stared intently, then couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Orochimaru!"

Might Guy said in a deep voice, "To be honest, I'm very worried about the Lord Hokage..."

Kakashi glanced at the platform and said calmly, "The Anbu can handle things up there. The Lord Hokage isn't so easy to kill, because he is... the Hokage of our Konohagakure!"

Hinata glanced at the direction of the high platform upon hearing this.

Hmm! There are only two Anbu crouching outside the Four Violet Flames Formation... that area can indeed be left to them.

Furthermore... I also believe that the Lord Hokage won't be killed so easily!

He was the strongest Third Hokage!

How could he possibly lose to Orochimaru?
