Konoha In the early morning of August 8, 2038, Land of Grass Kusagakure was outside.
Akaseki led 21 Chunin to the outside of Kusagakure----
"Grass Flower is really going to be ruthless this time. We are all friends from the same village——" Ranwu's tone was filled with contempt and helplessness.
Of course, what I despised was Kusagakure's internal fighting, and at the same time, I couldn't bear to see this tragic scene.
There are two major factions of Kusagakure. The doves are named "Grass Flower" and the hawks are named "Grass Fruit". The two factions have been fighting among themselves for a long time and have sharp conflicts——
"It's just a vague division. The factions in the village actually already have their own names. How is this different from the Branch Family? There is no difference at all." Akaseki said, shaking his head.
Nonō: ·Nonō turned his head and glanced at Akaseki who mumbled his words inexplicably.
But what Akaseki said does make sense.
Even if it is Kumogakure, the doves and hawks did not choose a special name after the previous fight until Raikage was assassinated. Having different names is equivalent to no longer concealing "Branch Family".
"Indeed, when Chunin Ninja Exams saw those three Kusagakure's Genin, I remembered that the one named Mui should be Grass Flower's Genin, was also ostracized by two other Grass Fruit's Genin - they even publicly slandered him in front of outsiders, and the conflict had become public." Ranwu recalled.
Akaishi shook his head and said, "No, that Wuwei is from the grass, and the other two are from the flower of the grass. At that time, the flower of the grass was still dominant in Caoyin Village."
"? Is that so?" Ranwu was stunned when she heard this, she really couldn't remember clearly.
In fact, it's not that my memory is bad. Firstly, I didn't remember it specially. Secondly, the naive Ranwu always instinctively had a favorable impression of "doves", so naturally, he assigned "Grass Flower" a role to be bullied in his memory.
After all, what impressed Ranwu the most was Kumogakure's hawk rebellion - which directly led to the death of her grandfather.
"Of course! I have a good memory. I remember Chunin Ninja Exams's account clearly!" Akaseki said matter-of-factly.
Nonō:
Isn't it a bit targeted?
Seeing this, Minato reminded, "But whether it is Grass Flower or Grass Fruit, before this, they were actually more inclined to
Iwagakure, we can complete our set goal in a while."
Obviously, Konoha is not a pain to use compared to "Grass Flower"!
Between Konoha and Iwagakure, Kusagakure has always been more inclined to Iwagakure. Even Kannabi Bridge, an important border town between the two countries, usually does not fortify Iwagakure.
Even when Second of Konoha was still there, it only allowed Kusagakure to take a little care. After Tobirama passed away, Kusagakure seemed to be a vassal of Iwagakure. At that time, "Grass Flower" was still in power!
It's just that the two major factions of Kusagakure are actually controlled by Iwagakure. To a certain extent, they are also being "failed" by Ōnoki.
After Chunin Ninja Exams, because Iwagakure needed Kusagakure to join the battle more actively, that is, they needed them to be cannon fodder, so Iwagakure stepped up efforts to cultivate "Grass Fruit" and took away the power of "Grass Flower".
But this time also gave Konoha a chance----
"Grass Flower" has now fallen to Konoha. Although "Grass Fruit" had previously risen in Kusagakure, in the previous three months, "Grass Fruit"'s strength had been greatly damaged. Now "Grass Flower" has regained control of Kusagakure.
Now, "Grass Flower" must cooperate with Konoha to completely liquidate "Grass Fruit"!
Soon after, at the appointed time, the ninja sent by "Grass Flower" to contact them appeared, and he was also an acquaintance of Akaseki - the fat Grass Ninja whom Chunin Ninja Exams had met - the one with the most arrogant personality.
"Sir Akaseki!" Fat Grass Ninja immediately smiled flatteringly when he saw Akaseki this time.
Although the two participated in Chunin Ninja Exams together, and even fat Grass Ninja was promoted to Jonin in Kusagakure, but - he himself also understood that compared with "Konoha's Akaseki" whose reputation had spread in Shinobi World, the gap was not even a little bit!
"Well, are you ready?" Akaseki asked specifically.
"Yes!" Fat Grass Ninja stood up straight and said with some cruelty, "Grass Fruit's main force went to cooperate with those Stone Ninja's attack, but including that Mui, many young people are still there, especially their family members——"
That's right, after "Grass Flower" returned to power, on the surface it was just forcing "Grass Fruit" to pay for his war, but in fact--
But he was already ready to be cruel!
The reason why among Konoha's Jonin, only Akaseki is here is because others are dealing with Grass Ninja's final counterattack. And----Iwagakure's last performance-Iwagakure No matter how much he wants to sell Grass Ninja, he still has to put on a show. At this critical moment, some people are still dispatched.
However, with the support of "Grass Flower", Konoha already has the key to attack Huanglong. This most important opportunity to make a contribution has also fallen on Akaseki.
After all----
There are three Uchiha Clan's Jonin here. This final great achievement must be Uchiha Clan's. Otherwise, Uchiha Clan's big-picture view of the overall situation will have to mess things up.
Moreover, Dan Katō and Torifu Akimichi have always been optimistic about Akaseki, and of course they support him in taking on the role of "breaking up the village".
Konoha is not afraid of fraud----
Kusagakure doesn't have any great masters. Even if he wants to ambush Akaseki, he has little chance. The only variable is that Iwagakure assists and sends masters to ambush?
However, judging from the previous dispute between "Grass Flower" and Iwagakure, the possibility is slim!
Akaseki, led by fat Grass Ninja, entered Kusagakure from the underground secret passage, directly bypassing all Sealing Technique Formula----
"Huh?"
When he first came in, Nonō, who was already on guard, directly put Kunai on fat Grass Ninja's neck!
"Ah----this----I don't know what's going on!" Fat Grass Ninja was also confused.
At this time, Kusagakure was in chaos----
When he heard the noise at first, Akaseki thought there was really an ambush, and was already preparing to drive Susanoo to block the front.
But soon Akaseki realized——
Something's wrong!
It didn't seem like there was an ambush, but the scene was really chaotic. It looked like ---- civil unrest?
"Have you already taken action?" Akaseki looked at Fat Grass Ninja strangely.
Are the people in "Grass Flower" so loyal? They actually act as cannon fodder themselves?
"I----I don't know----" Fat Grass Ninja's doubts don't look like he's faking it.
But he soon reacted----
"The sound of fighting is mainly----ah! It's the treasure house. It must be those people from Grass Fruit who jumped over the wall in a desperate attempt to steal the treasures in the village and defect!" Fat Grass Ninja said confidently.
"Treasure?" Akaseki's eyes lit up when he heard this.
I feel that Kusagakure's treasure needs to be taken care of by truly virtuous people.
Fat Kusagakure hesitated when he heard this, and then said, "Our little Ninja Village doesn't have anything good----"
"Really?" Akaseki stared at him and asked.
Originally Akaseki thought it was just some wealth at most, but now looking at his guilty conscience--it seems like there really is something good!
Fat Grass Ninja can participate in Chunin Ninja Exams, so he naturally has something outstanding - not only his qualifications and strength are outstanding among Grass Ninja at this age, but he is also the son of the leader of Grass Flower.
Therefore, he actually heard his father mention that although Kusagakure is a small hidden village, when the village was built, a real treasure was obtained - it is said - it is Six Paths Tools!
Legend has it that the owner of this Six Paths Tools almost unified Shinobi World----
Even if there is some truth in this long-standing legend, but looking at recent times, we know how strong Six Paths Tools is, Kinkaku and Ginkaku brother? Second Hokage was killed!
Unfortunately, although Kusagakure has this Six Paths Tools, it has been unable to control it.
The only "method of use" discovered so far is to know that it will absorb the chakra of those who are close to it----
It's just that this thing is like a bottomless pit, it doesn't change no matter how much chakra it absorbs, and it will suck people in if you are not careful!
However, Fat Grass Ninja, like all previous Grass Ninja executives who knew about this matter, was full of covetousness for the legendary "Six Paths Tools" and even fantasized about whether there would be One day, I can use this "Six Paths Tools" to make Grass Ninja become a big Ninja Village----at least like Hanzō, right?
Therefore, after discovering that the main direction of the battle was the treasure house, Fat Grass Ninja immediately became nervous.
"Is that so? If you don't lead the way, you probably need support, right?" Akaseki looked at Fat Grass Ninja and smiled.
Fat Grass Ninja saw this, nodded quickly, and at the same time led Konoha's ninja and ran towards the treasure house.
Result----
Fat Grass Ninja really guessed it right!
Outside the treasure house, many Grass Ninja are fighting each other----
"Grass Fruit bastard, you actually want to steal the village's treasures? Reinforcements have arrived, why don't you surrender quickly!"
"Bah! You actually colluded with Konoha. Do you deserve to be in charge of Kusagakure?"
"We are just cooperating with Konoha to restore peace to Kusagakure. It is better than you guys who use Kusagakure as cannon fodder for Stone Ninja in order to seize power!"
"This is the right path for Kusagakure----"
"It's ridiculous. You're actually pretending to leave, but actually planning to rob the village's treasures?"
From the mutual insults between the two parties, Akaseki also understood that there was more "Grass Fruit" than expected.
Not specifically to ambush Konoha, but to launch a rebellion and fight for some treasure - it sounds like it should be something very important!
But it just happened to be the day when Konoha Ninja would come ------
Konoha's ninjas have already taken action at this time.
"Those with red collars and black cloaks are Grass Fruit people!" Fat Grass Ninja immediately reminded from the side.
Akaseki is still holding the line from behind----
With just twenty Chunin, it was overwhelming to suppress Kusagakure's internal orders!
After all, among these Chunin, there is also a "more powerful Chunin" like Minato Namikaze.
Seeing that the situation was under control, the leader of Grass Ninja anxiously shouted to Akaseki, "Konoha's Akaseki! Stop the people inside quickly----inside----those guys caught Uzumaki Clan's orphan and went in----"
"Uzumaki Clan?" Akaseki couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
Where did Uzumaki Clan come from again?
