Chapter 366: News from Koharu Utatane

"Why are you wasting your time talking like that?!"

Yuya and Minato Namikaze were running across the roofs of tall buildings. In the past, ninjas ran on rooftops, but now ninjas run on rooftops...

Of course, the roof height was not very high before, so there was no requirement for upper, middle and lower ninjas. But it is not the case now. It is normal for a building to be dozens of meters high. It is impossible for middle and lower ninjas who do not have relevant flying ninja skills to fall from this height and still ensure their safety.

Therefore, except for the jonin, no ninja in Konoha Village is qualified to run on the roof.

Of course, Minato Namikaze and Yuya must have it.

Two people were running in front, and several figures were following closely behind.

These people are the Shadow Guards.

Minato Namikaze listened to Yuya's complaints and said with a smile: "This, this really should be said in detail. Besides, Kushina had such a hard time giving birth to a child, I think it's okay for Naruto to take her last name...

Although, I don’t know why so many people feel weird about it.”

You Ya glanced at Minato Namikaze and said casually, "Because generally speaking, only when a woman is the head of the family, such as when marrying into a family, will the child take the mother's surname."

Namikaze Minato was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted and became a little angry: "I'm not marrying into the family! To be honest, Kushina doesn't even associate with the Uzumaki clan!"

Yuya chuckled as he ran, "But it is Kushina who is the boss of the family, right?"

Namikaze Minato: "..."

Well, he really couldn't argue with that.

The two were running on the rooftop while chatting with each other. In a short while, Yuya and Minato Namikaze arrived at the Hokage's office.

At this moment, not only the worker Nara Shika was in the office, but also Sarutobi Hiruzen and Utane Koharu.

"You're here?" The moment You Ya saw Utane Koharu, his head buzzed and his expression changed.

He knew that it was he who arranged for Utane Koharu to go to the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Fire.

The purpose is naturally to serve as a bridge between Konoha Village and the Daimyo.

And now, Utatane Koharu has come to Konoha, which means that this matter is likely to be very serious.

Utane Koharu took a deep breath and nodded.

Utatane Koharu is satisfied with Yuya.

Although You Ya's relationship with her is not very good, or rather, You Ya has no special relationship with her at all.

But for Utane Koharu, Yuya is, after all, the designated successor of Senju Tobirama.

And Senju Tobirama, that is her teacher.

Therefore, Utatane Koharu is more satisfied with Yuya's achievements in strengthening Konoha over the years.

As for You Ya asking her to take up a position in Daming Prefecture.

Honestly she didn't care.

Just like Yuya arranged for Mito Kado En to be the emperor of the Uzumaki clan, and made Sarutobi Hiruzen a so-called Minister of Culture who had nothing to do with the core power of Konoha. All these things show that Yuya does not trust them, the disciples of Senju Tobirama, at all.

They are fully aware of this and accept it calmly.

after all……

If it were them, they would do the same.

It is better to concentrate power in one's own hands.

There is no doubt that the three of them have the potential to share the power in Youya's hands.

"Well, this incident is quite serious. If it was just the death of a border soldier, it wouldn't have caused such a big impact."

Utane Koharu had no intention of reminiscing about the past with Youya.

Of course, she had no past reminiscing with You Ya.

Yuya frowned after hearing what Utatane Koharu said: "What on earth happened?!"

Before, Minato Namikaze only said that something happened on the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Iron.

In fact, Youya doesn't care about this at all.

Is there ever no conflict on the border between the Fire Nation and other countries? !

No conflict, that's news!

The current situation is that if a fight really breaks out on the border, it can only be a small-scale battle, and it is impossible for it to become a war involving more than a hundred people.

The five major ninja villages are all well aware of this.

After all, no matter what, the five major ninja villages have now signed a cooperation basis for the next few years in Konoha Village.

Isn't it stupid to fight each other at this time?

and……

No good!

How can there be eternal hatred between countries and between villages?

Konoha and Kumogakure have been fighting to the death, shouldn't they just continue doing business now? !

but……

What Utatane Koharu means is...

"An important person died?!" You Ya frowned deeply.

The conflict was not big, but it made Utane Koharu come to Konoha Village on purpose. The only reason could be that the person who died in the conflict had an unusual identity.

Utatane Koharu nodded: "The one who died was the youngest son of the Fire Country Daimyo."

After saying that, Utane Koharu seemed to be afraid that Yuya didn't understand the seriousness of the matter and added: "It's the daimyo's favorite son."

You Ya's face suddenly turned ugly.

It doesn’t matter to Youya whether there are daimyo in the daimyo’s mansion or not, but the problem is that at this stage, Konoha Village cannot do without the support of the Fire Country daimyo.

At most, the population of Konoha Village is only about eight million, and it is impossible to increase the number of troops with such a small population.

Let me put it this way, if a million people want to, supporting ten thousand soldiers is the limit.

But if the standard is changed to ninja, then the number must drop drastically.

Because ninjas and ordinary soldiers are at completely two different levels of logistical costs.

As I said a long time ago, after a war, apart from kunai, shuriken and other ninja tools that can be recovered, wars between ninjas are more about using detonating tags and other means of attack.

Detonating tags are expensive. With this calculation, Konoha Village has a population of 8 million, and normal support can only support about 40,000 ninjas.

If we try our best to lead Konoha Village towards war, this number may triple or quadruple.

But even 200,000 ninja troops cannot withstand the border pressure from all directions of the Fire Country.

So the bottom line is that there are not enough people.

If You Ya had 50 million people under his command now, he would have already ignored the daimyo's mood.

If Yuya has 100 million people under his command, it directly means that the Land of Fire should be a part of Konoha Village.

But this number is still far from enough...

Youya sighed, suppressed his annoyance, looked at Utane Koharu and asked, "Who is the person behind this?"

Yuya asked this question without expecting Utatane Koharu to answer it.

As expected, Utatane Koharu told Yuya: "I didn't find out. The attackers used a variety of ninjutsu, and they were all basic five-element ninjutsu. Those killed by the daimyo's guards had no obvious characteristics."

You Ya frowned when he heard this: "Is that so?"

Utatane Koharu continued, "Despite this, we still found a clue.

The attackers have a close relationship with Konoha's ninja army."
