Chapter 982 Sit back and wait for death
At this time, Orochimaru licked his lips, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative. We can first send the elite of the Anbu to investigate the movements of ninjas from various countries, and at the same time step up the training of newcomers."
The Third Hokage nodded slightly: "Orochimaru has a point, but we must also be careful to avoid causing unnecessary conflicts. Jiraiya, I want you to be responsible for the special training of the newcomers. You can pass on some of your unique ninjutsu to improve their strength."
Jiraiya scratched his head and said, "Leave it to me, but those little brats will have to suffer a lot."
Tsunade crossed her arms and said, "I will make preparations for medical treatment to ensure that the wounded combatants receive prompt treatment. I just hope that the casualties this time can be minimized."
The Third Hokage looked determined: "This battle is inevitable, but Konoha has excellent ninjas. As long as we unite as one, we will be able to protect Konoha and the Land of Fire. Now let's act according to the plan." The three ninjas responded in unison, and then each of them turned around and left the Hokage's office to prepare for the upcoming crisis. Kakashi stood there and observed for a long time, with doubts in his heart. He knew that this forest was rarely visited by people, and the traces of such a fierce battle must indicate that something big had happened. He decided to speed up his pace and head to the river, perhaps there would be more clues there.
When he came to the river, he found that the water had become turbid and there was a faint smell of blood. Kakashi squatted down, dipped his finger into a little river water and put it to his nose to smell it, frowning. At this moment, a frog jumped over and spoke in human language: "Kakashi, the village is about to face danger. You must go back and report to the Hokage as soon as possible." Kakashi was shocked and immediately asked: "Do you know what kind of danger it is?" The frog shook his head to indicate that he didn't know, and only said that he came to report because he felt the fluctuation of powerful power. Kakashi no longer hesitated and quickly returned to the village along the original route. In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage listened to Kakashi's report with a solemn expression. He ordered to strengthen the village's vigilance and asked Kakashi to lead a team of ninjas to investigate the situation again. After receiving the order, Kakashi quickly summoned Shikamaru, Choji, Ino and other young ninjas to set off. They carefully moved towards the woods where traces of the battle were found before. The atmosphere along the way was tense and depressing, with only the rustling sound of the leaves blowing in the wind.
When they approached the edge of the woods, they suddenly heard a low roar. Kakashi signaled everyone to stop and quietly went forward to check. He saw a huge black shadow swaying in the woods, accompanied by a strong chakra breath. Kakashi recognized that this chakra was very strange and definitely not from Konoha Village.
Just as he was about to go back and inform his teammates, the black shadow suddenly rushed towards them. Kakashi shouted, "Scatter!" The ninjas dodged one after another. Shikamaru calmly analyzed the situation and commanded everyone to form an encirclement. Kakashi faced the black shadow head-on. He used Raikiri and a flash of lightning rushed towards the black shadow. The black shadow roared in pain after being attacked, but soon launched a counterattack. For a time, the two sides were in a stalemate. Kakashi knew that he had to fight quickly, so he cooperated with his teammates tacitly, gradually found the weakness of the black shadow and launched the final attack, successfully repelling the black shadow. After that, they hurried back to the village with the information to report to the Hokage. After listening to the report of Kakashi and others, the Third Hokage pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that the enemy is ready to move. We must be prepared to deal with various attacks in advance." Kakashi nodded.
At the same time, ninja villages in other countries also noticed something was wrong. Gaara from the Sand Village stood on a sand dune, looking towards Konoha Village and muttering to himself: "There seems to be a big movement in Konoha, and this uneasy atmosphere may affect the entire ninja world." Temari and Kankuro beside him also looked serious.
Back in Konoha Village, Jiraiya was training the new recruits harshly. Naruto was exhausted but still persisted, while Sasuke was silently thinking about how to improve the power of his ninjutsu. Sakura was concentrating on learning the medical ninjutsu knowledge that Tsunade taught her.
One night, the alarm suddenly sounded. Kakashi instantly appeared on the rooftop and looked into the distance, only to see a group of mysterious ninjas attacking Konoha at high speed. He quickly notified all ninjas to gather and prepare for battle. The lights in Konoha Village were bright, and the ninjas were ready. As the enemy got closer and closer, the battle was imminent. Kakashi clenched the kunai in his hand, his eyes full of determination: "Come on, no matter who you are, Konoha will not be easily defeated." The mysterious ninjas rushed into Konoha Village, and a melee broke out immediately. Kakashi rushed into the enemy camp first, his Raikiri kept flashing, and each shot could repel several enemies. Shikamaru calmly commanded the tactics in the crowd, using the shadow binding technique to control the enemy's actions to facilitate his companions' attack.
The Nine-Tails' power in Naruto's body was stirring, and he rushed towards the enemy with a shout of excitement, the Rasengan spinning in his hands. Sasuke activated his Sharingan, accurately seeing through the enemy's movements, and his Chidori stabbed at the opponent mercilessly.
Gaara sensed the battle in Konoha and led some ninjas from the Sand Village to come to support. His sandstorm swept in, trapping many mysterious ninjas. Temari's wind escape ninjutsu and Kankuro's puppetry also played a great role.
The battle lasted for a long time, and the mysterious ninja gradually lost. Just when they wanted to retreat, a loud laugh came from behind. A figure covered in black robes slowly emerged, and he formed seals with his hands, releasing a powerful dark force. But the ninjas from Konoha and Sand Village were not afraid. They huddled together, ready to meet the final challenge. The black-robed figure said grimly: "Do Konoha and Sand Village think they can stop me together?" Kakashi snorted coldly: "No matter who you are, don't think about going any further today." The black-robed man suddenly increased his strength, and the dark force surged like a tide. At the critical moment, several rays of light suddenly fell from the sky. It turned out that several Konoha seniors who had lived in seclusion for many years arrived. One of the old men shouted loudly: "Evil cannot defeat good, your dark power should not be arrogant." The morale of many ninjas was greatly boosted, and they worked together to resist the dark power. Naruto rushed towards the black-robed man desperately, and the power of the Nine-Tails in his body burst out with all his strength. Sasuke followed closely behind, his Sharingan evolved to the extreme, and the two of them cooperated to deliver a super powerful attack. The black-robed man was shocked, and he did not expect to encounter such a strong resistance. He tried to cast a spell to turn the tide of the battle, but the ninjas of Sand Village and Konoha did not give him a chance. Everyone worked together and used various ninjutsu. In the end, the black-robed man was completely defeated and disappeared in a wisp of black smoke. After the war, the relationship between Konoha and Sand Village became closer. Each ninja has grown a lot. Naruto patted Sasuke on the shoulder and said, "We will protect Konoha together in the future." Sasuke responded with a rare smile.
