Under the confused looks of others, Danzo made his suggestion.

"Using ordinary people as shields? Are you crazy?!"

"Never allowed!"

"I would rather die in battle than do such a thing to betray the people of Konoha!"

"Don't mention this matter again. This is a war between ninjas and has nothing to do with ordinary people. We are Konoha ninjas. We are not beasts like Ning Qi who coerce ordinary residents of Konoha!"

Amid the opposition, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head vigorously and firmly rejected Danzo's proposal to use ordinary people as human shields to restrain Kumogakure.

Compared with the ninja in his heart, Konoha's safety, family inheritance, and personal life no longer have too much weight.

The original intention of the birth of ninjas was to use their strength to protect the people around them. Now that the people they want to protect are pushed to the stage to block the sword for themselves, what is the meaning of their existence as ninjas?

Sarutobi Hiruzen was disappointed, both mentally and externally.

I am disappointed that my former best friend and partner, Shimura Danzo, has now completely indulged in darkness, and I am also disappointed that he dared to take the initiative to raise such treacherous issues in front of so many people regardless of the occasion.

When the scene was completely quiet and everyone had finished scolding, Danzo tapped his cane and said calmly: "This is for the continuation of Konoha."

"Konoha does not have such a strong desire to continue that it would not hesitate to bury innocent people with it." Sarutobi retorted.

Yan and Xiaochun on the side also frowned and looked at Danzo with dissatisfaction.

How can you say this kind of thing publicly?

Danzo glanced at him and Koharu. If he kept it privately, they would really agree to his plan.

And he didn't really intend to do that. He showed his desire to lift the roof just to force everyone to open the windows, rather than really intending to lift the roof.

That didn't do him much good.

"Since living people can't do it, let's use dead people," Danzo said calmly. He swept around a circle of representatives of the ninja clan. "I need a very small part of the remains of the dead ninja people present. Maybe they can be used in the It comes in handy at critical moments when resisting Kumogakure’s attack.”

Since Konoha's cemetery had been completely blown up by Ning Qi before, if he wanted to obtain the remains of these powerful men, he could only obtain them from the ancestral temples of the major ninja clans.

And now that Konoha is torn apart, it is completely dependent on the longing of the major ninja clans for the position of Hokage. Many of them may not even pay attention to the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, let alone Danzo who has been dismissed from his position as Hokage's assistant. What face will it give?

To convince these people, a more critical reason is needed.

"What's the use of the remains of a dead person?" Many ninja representatives present were very puzzled.

But compared to the suggestion of using ordinary people as human shields, this kind of thing is not taboo at all.

"I recently developed a new ninjutsu. By using the remains of these dead people, I can call their heroic spirits back from the Pure Land and continue to fight to protect Konoha." Danzo explained.

Inuzuka Takashi frowned: "This technique of desecrating the dead..."

"Do you think it's blasphemy?" Danzo glanced coldly at Inuzuka Takashi, who had just spoken, "I think this is the ancestors' ardent blessing for the younger generations."

No one else had any reaction. It was just a little bit of the remains of the deceased ancestors. How much blasphemy could it be?

And from the bottom of their hearts, they didn't think Danzo could really do anything.

But the other person present may not think so.

Although his heart was in turmoil, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression did not change. Many of the people present were young people from major ninja clans. They had not experienced the era when taboo ninjutsu was rampant. Their clan leader might be able to see through it. There are clues in Danzo's words, but now these people, even if Ning Qi has not destroyed the files, it is difficult for them to understand Danzo's true intention of collecting the remains of the deceased.

He took a deep look at Danzo and said softly: "We will discuss this later. The focus now is to continue discussing the response strategy to Kumogakure's attack."

Danzo's face immediately darkened, and he glanced at Sarutobi incomprehensibly with one eye. He seemed to have never expected that the biggest opponent would come from the Third Hokage, who should be most worried about the situation in Konoha.

But he didn't say anything, he just curled his lips coldly, then sat in his position and continued to close his eyes and concentrate.

Danzo's proposal was just a small episode in this meeting. Regarding Kumogakure's response, after Jiraiya's withdrawal and the date for Tsunade's return were established, all that was left was to do a good job in Konoha's defense construction. These are all things that require money and effort from everyone.

Fortunately, Konoha was blown beyond recognition by Ning Qi. When rebuilding Konoha, they had considered the impact of the Fourth Ninja World War that might come in the near future on Konoha. Therefore, the progress of this defense construction is relatively high and can be dragged out at any time. A defensive battle.

"Last point, regarding the fourth-generation Raikage Ai, during the Third Ninja World War, he left a lot of battle report analysis about this person, but many key information has been blown up by Ning Qi. This is what I asked a few people to do. Intelligence gathered by people who have learned about or witnessed the opponent’s combat scenes.”

"This person is very dangerous, very fast, and has extremely strong defense. He even encountered Minato during the Third Ninja War. The two sides ended up in a draw. Now that Minato is gone, it's not like we can't find him. Match him, Tsunade, Jiraiya, if they don't come back in time..."

Everyone in the meeting looked over. Sarutobi adjusted the brim of the Hokage's hat and said calmly: "Then when the time comes, I will take action myself."

Many people frowned, but in the end it was just you looking at me and me looking at you, and no one said anything depressing.

Sarutobi didn't explain anything, just smiled, made everyone relax, and then dismissed the meeting.

He and Danzo were the only two people left in the conference room.

"Is it the art of reincarnation?" Before Danzo could speak, Sarutobi interrupted him and asked directly.

"Has it reached the point where we can actually fight?"

Danzo frowned, nodded, and said calmly: "Although the time is short, we have found a talent who is very knowledgeable about improving this ninjutsu."

"How's the effect?" Sarutobi asked curiously.

"As a strange army, it will definitely cause a lot of casualties to Kumogakure."

Sarutobi looked at him, and then nodded slightly thoughtfully: "If the conditions are right, using it in conjunction with the mutual detonation talisman can indeed cause a lot of trouble to Kumogakure... I know how to use this technique, and I will let the arsenal general I’ll give you some more detonating symbols.”

"It's just that using the bodies of the dead as humanoid explosives is too blasphemous to the dead. You shouldn't have brought it up at this meeting." Sarutobi scolded softly.

Only then did Danzo realize how distorted the misunderstanding between the two parties was.

He opened his mouth slightly, but in the end nothing came out.

I have never really seen the improved Jutsu of Earth Reincarnation. Anyone who knows about this technique must have the same idea as Sarutobi. After all, the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, who created this technique with the combination of the Mutual Reincarnation of the Earth Reincarnation and the Explosive Talisman, originally created this technique. original tactical intention.

Among them, the mutually multiplying detonating talisman is still the core of this combination of ninjutsu.

The improved Jutsu Tensei has completely abandoned the use of it in combination with the Mutual Detonation Talisman. Although it does not last long, it is already a wonderful ninjutsu that can work alone.

Sarutobi felt that using the body of the dead as a human explosive was a sacrilege, so what would his expression be like if he saw the reincarnation of the real and improved filth?

A subtle smile appeared on Danzo's lips: "I understand."

Before leaving, he leaned on crutches, turned around, and suddenly asked a strange question: "Sarutobi, if we can not only survive this crisis this time, but also have the opportunity to return the humiliation that these ninja villages have brought to us." Come back with profit, will you allow us to do that? "

Sarutobi was stunned for a moment, then laughed, smoke lingering on his face, "When this crisis is successfully overcome, the new Hokage may have already taken office. Do I agree or not? Is there any point in that?"

"I think so too," Danzo nodded and replied meaningfully: "When you leave office, you must look like you are leaving office."

"Are you complaining that I disbanded your roots?"

"The root has not disappeared, it just melted into the darkness. I have said so much to you today, but I just hope you can remember what you said today."

As Sarutobi watched in confusion, Danzo opened the door, his cane hit the ground with a clicking sound, light came in, the wind blew the curtains, and he disappeared into the dawn light and wind.

Shirakawa Village is a small and medium-sized village located on the eastern border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind. This place is famous in surrounding countries for its rich production of a kind of green tea called Shirakawa Tea.

August every year, the weather is hot, which is not only the time for picking Shirakawa tea leaves, but also an excellent time for people to drink a cup of Shirakawa tea in their spare time to relieve heat and cool down the heat.

It was noon at this time, the sun was shining brightly, the cicadas were chirping endlessly, and the heat wave was steaming the ground, so that the originally invisible air took on a vague shape.

In the teahouse, the old woman brought tea, and when Nobuzaki took a sip, the clarity that penetrated his lungs made him say "ha".

The tea cup hit the table with a crisp sound.

"If it weren't for the mission, this kind of weather would be a good time to take a nap..." He couldn't help but murmured, and "pushed" a gust of wind out.

This is not an ordinary ninjutsu, but he can spread his own chakra in the wind, and use the movement of the wind to detect possible enemies in the wind.

As a member of the Anbu force directly under the Hokage, he originally did not have to work so hard in the field. However, now the situation in Konoha is critical and there is a serious shortage of manpower, especially the sentient ninjas. Since the Hyuga clan was exterminated by Ning Qi, the war has After the outbreak, the status of Konoha's sentient ninjas has risen again and again. He was also dispatched here from members of the ANBU force directly under the Hokage to monitor Kumogakure's movements.

Yes, at the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind, he was monitoring the movements of the shinobi villages within the Land of Thunder. At first, Nobu Mizaki thought that Konoha headquarters had made a mistake, but after a warning, the ANBU captain who handed over the task He also immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

"The Cloud Hidden Village is planning to borrow a tunnel from other countries to attack Konoha? How cunning!!"

It is said that many Konoha scouts who were originally guarding the border of Thunder Kingdom have been deployed to the borders of other countries. Due to the relatively short distance and the serious shortage of manpower assigned, Mitsaki Nobu was the first to come here from Konoha. Scout.

"Isn't Sand Hidden Village our ally? Will they really allow Cloud Hidden Village to borrow the road? Moreover, aren't they afraid that Cloud Hidden Village's borrowing the road will be a lie, and will it be true to destroy them conveniently?" Nobuzaki Mitsaki Looking at the mountain top in the distance, I felt that the probability of Yunyin coming from there was low.

The mountain peaks in the distance are the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind. The tea leaves of Shirakawa Village are also grown on the mountains there. Even in such a hot afternoon, there are local tea farmers working hard to pick tea leaves. .

After drinking all the tea, he pushed out another fan. As he was savoring the sweetness of the tea, he suddenly seemed to feel something and wrinkled his nose.

The wind... smells of blood.

There was also... the sound of bringing blood.

It was like a chat between the executioners after a burst of mourning.

"Why do you want to kill this tea farmer..."

"Nonsense, he has seen the whereabouts of so many of us. What if the notice is given to Konoha and the Konoha raid plan that we have worked hard to plan for so long is exposed? Moreover, this is the country of wind and fire anyway. Who would have thought that it was our Yun Yin who touched the border of our country?”

Mitsaki Nobu followed the direction of the wind and raised his head.

On the hillside in the distance, the first one, the second one, and then nearly a hundred figures appeared in dense numbers one after another. They wore hats, acted in unison, and had clear goals. They flew towards the remote woods very quickly. .

Mitsaki Shin opened his mouth slightly.

coming……

coming.

Yunyin.

coming!

In the dense forest on the outskirts of Konoha, there was a rustling sound. Danzo glanced sideways and saw a slender white snake crawling out of the bushes with its red eyes looking at him silently.

"Danzo-sama, you are well." A leisurely voice sounded, and Danzo raised his head. A pale man with long hair was lying on a branch not far away. Purple eye shadow extended to the nose, and brown vertical There was a sinister and dangerous aura in his eyes.

"Orochimaru," Danzo called out the other person's name, and he lifted the package in his hand, "I have brought you what you want."

Orochimaru fell from the tree, took the package from Danzo's hand, opened it, looked at it, and then shook his head slightly.

Danzo frowned: "Why, these are the remains of the dead of various strong men in Konoha that you requested, aren't they?"

"The stuff is correct, it's just a pity..." Orochimaru said hoarsely, "If Konoha's cemetery hadn't been blown up by Hyuga Ningqi, I could directly form an entire army of filth reincarnations for you to resist. Kumogakure's attack."

"It's useless to say that." Danzo shook his head.

Orochimaru smiled faintly, and was about to say something when a hiss suddenly came from the sky.

Danzo's expression suddenly changed and he whispered: "They are coming..."

"Who?" Orochimaru asked, having not returned to the village for a long time and not knowing the specific meaning of that sound.

"Kumogakure... you'd better go faster..." Danzo's face looked ugly, Kumogakure's beasts were really... too fast.

"The more critical the moment, the more shocking your appearance is. These bones of Konoha's strong men are enough to help you ascend to the position of Hokage..." Orochimaru said casually, the smile on his face was simply uncontrollable, " Ah, letting Konoha's heroic spirits return to the world to help Konoha resist the crisis is really the best interpretation of the will of fire."

Listening to the other party's slightly mocking voice, Danzo shook his head and was not interested in talking anymore. He turned around and was about to return to the village, when Orochimaru's voice suddenly sounded behind him:

"Don't forget the deal between us, the Fifth Hokage, Lord Shimura Danzo."
