To be honest, when the Hokage of Konoha died in battle, there was really no one to support them.
The First Hokage fought Madara Uchiha; the Second Hokage single-handedly intercepted Kinkaku and Ginkaku; the Third Hokage fought Orochimaru; the Fourth Hokage sealed the Nine-Tails...
And none of them received any support.
Although there are various reasons, the Hokage Position seems to have been cursed.
Tsunade and Kakashi both met a peaceful end. Tsunade had experienced the deaths of her lover and younger brother, while Kakashi's life was even more tragic, with his father and teammates dying one after another.
Perhaps it was because he had seen through the ways of the world, or perhaps it was because it was during a period of peace following the Fourth Shinobi World War.
Both of them were eager to pass on the Hokage Position to the next generation.
However, in retrospect, it seems that Kakashi's decision to hand over the Hokage Position to Naruto while he was still in his prime was indeed a wise one.
It's really hard to say whether Naruto will live to a peaceful end!
'Boom boom boom—'
Explosions rang out all around Konoha, and Signal Flare flares were launched into the sky one after another.
The war has truly begun.
Dozens of Sound Ninja in uniform suddenly appeared out of nowhere and lined up in the stands to confront the scattered Konoha Ninja.
'Swish! Swish!'
Two figures swiftly attacked Hinata, Hinata together, instantly killing the two Sound Ninja!
Hinata killed two enemies with a flick of her wrist, but she remained calm and even felt a little hungry.
Kakashi glanced at the arena and saw that Gaara, Temari, Kankuro, and Sasuke had all disappeared.
Approaching Hinata, Kakashi said seriously, "Hinata! Sasuke is tracking Gaara of the Sand Village. You've already qualified Chunin, so immediately choose suitable teammates and go assist Sasuke. That Gaara... something seems off!"
"Good!"
Hinata readily agreed.
Defeating the One-Tailed Jinchuriki of the Sand Village would certainly allow one to show off their One-Tail Jinchuriki in the village.
If Gaara, it would be a powerful tool for negotiating with the Sand Village.
However... Hinata still hesitated and asked, "Teacher Kakashi, do you keep your word?"
Kakashi was stunned and asked, "What?"
Hinata retorted, dissatisfied, "It's Chunin! You said I'm qualified for Chunin, so don't forget to recommend me to the Lord Hokage!"
Kakashi: "..."
"Go quickly!"
In fact, Hinata already possessed the qualifications of Chunin.
It's not just about having the qualifications in terms of ability.
In terms of strength, Naruto and Sasuke actually possess the strength of Chunin.
However, someone like Sasuke, who chased after an enemy despite a vast disparity in strength, would never Chunin his lifetime.
Naruto is probably the same.
But before that...
Hinata glanced at the direction of the high platform. In the Four Violet Flames Formation, Orochimaru had already summoned the First Hokage and Second Hokage.
Driven by her Shuriken, Hinata pulled a Shuriken from her ninja tool pouch and carefully aimed it at the First Hokage amidst the Four Violet Flames Formation.
Then... he threw it out!
Kakashi looked at Hinata with a completely bewildered expression and asked in confusion, "Hinata, what are you doing?"
There don't seem to be any enemies over there!
In that instant, Hinata seemed to radiate boundless light.
Looking at Kakashi, Hinata solemnly declared, "I'm throwing Shuriken at the First Hokage!"
"From this day forward, I am a ninja who fought against the First Hokage!"
Kakashi: "..."
Kakashi glanced at the platform. "Is this even possible? Should I give it a try?"
Hinata punched a hole in the wall of the arena with a single Air Palm, and shouted, "Rock Lee, Shikamaru, Naruto, Akamaru! Come with me!"
"Brother Neji, you stay here and assist Teacher Kakashi and Teacher Might Guy!"
"Okay!" Neji replied, adding, "Be careful!"
Rolling your Byakugan! One is enough.
Since Kiba was also in the group, Kakashi didn't use Summoning Technique.
If he didn't bite his fingers, Kakashi might be able to complete the Konoha Crush Plan without taking any damage.
"Let's go!"
With a shout, Hinata rushed out first.
Rock Lee, Shikamaru, Naruto, and Kiba quickly followed!
Shino had returned to the venue at some point, but... no one really noticed him.
Seeing that Hinata and the others had already caught up, Shino followed behind with a blank expression.
In the blink of an eye, Hinata of five had already caught up with the enemy outside Konoha.
Hinata looked at Kiba and said, "Akamaru, I'm entrusting the tracking of Sasuke to you."
Ya retorted, dissatisfied, "Hey! Don't you roll your Byakugan too?"
Shikamaru gently twitched his teeth. "Brother, don't talk if you don't want to die!"
We've been classmates for six years, don't you have any self-awareness?
Hinata explained, "Using the Byakugan consumes chakra, and I am the strongest in the team, so I must maintain my best condition."
The Hyuga Clan, Aburame Family, and Inuzuka Clan of Konoha are all families skilled in Sensory Ninjutsu.
Although the Byakugan plays the most important role in the war, the other two families also have their own advantages.
The Inuzuka Clan's ninja dogs can detect enemy movements using only their noses, but they are easily misled by the enemy's scent.
As for the insects of the Aburame Clan... there are also many restrictions.
While the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan consumes chakra, once Byakugan, its detection accuracy is the most comprehensive.
Seeing that Hinata patiently explained things to Kiba, Shikamaru became bolder.
"But... why do I have to come along? It's too much trouble!"
Hinata glanced at Shikamaru and said calmly, "Your Shadow Jutsu is best suited for holding off enemies, while we must catch up with Gaara as soon as possible. If we encounter any troublesome enemies, you will stay behind to hold them off!"
Shikamaru: Does that mean I have to go and die?
This is really troublesome!
Akamaru twitched his nose and barked twice.
Ya shouted, "This way!"
"Woof woof!"
Kiba turned around and looked at him with a serious expression. "Shikamaru, you're in trouble."
"Two smaller teams, eight people in total, followed behind..."
"Woof woof!"
"Oh! There are nine people in total, and one of them is Shino!"
Shikamaru, his face filled with panic, wailed, "Huh? Someone's already caught up? You must be kidding me!"
Hinata had just said that someone was chasing them and that she should send Shikamaru to delay the enemy (to his death), when Akamaru spotted the enemy.
Is it really that much of a coincidence?
Hinata turned to Akamaru and asked, "Akamaru! How far away are we from the enemy? I mean, if we stop, how long will it take them to catch up?"
"Woof woof!"
The translator said, "If we stop now, we'll encounter them in thirty seconds at most!"
Hinata suddenly stopped and shouted, "You can leave now, but I'll catch up soon!"
Although it was agreed that Shikamaru would stay behind to die whenever an enemy appeared.
But that was just a joke between friends.
Hinata could take care of eight cannon fodder Sound Ninja in an instant!
Hinata actually wanted Shikamaru to fight Temari, giving him a chance to flirt with her!
I really am the kindest!
