Chapter 119 Title: Flame of Purification!

Why is it so important to drive away the Sand Ninja army entrenched in the Land of Fire? .

Because this is a good opportunity.

Military merit!

Attacking the Land of Wind is too dangerous and difficult.

But it is much easier to recover lost territory.

And in the process of recovery, the spoils of war are also extremely rich.

Military merit + benefits!

Just ask if you want it? .

In this regard, Konoha F4 will definitely want it.

"Tetsuno Ken died at the hands of the Sand Ninja. In order to avenge him, the Tetsuno clan is willing to act as a pioneer to deal with the Sand Ninja!"

Tetsuno Koharu played the dead card.

Tetsuno Ken was the leader of the Fire and Wind Border Camp before. He was killed by Ye Cang, who acted as a pioneer when the Sand Ninja invaded.

Now mentioning the other party's name is naturally to let Sarutobi Hiruzen give the vanguard task to the Tetsuno clan because the other party died for Konoha.

It can only be said that Tetsuno Koharu understands Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The dead are the greatest!

After playing this card, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to think more.

Facing this kind of dead card, both Mito Kado En and Danzo were a little speechless.

Even though they knew that the other party sat in that position for the sake of grabbing benefits, he did die on the spot, which fully proved the will of fire.

"…The vanguard will be handed over to the Utatane clan, and the rest of the people will be drawn from the major families!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen made a "fair" decision.

But there is a serious problem here.

Draw from the major families!

Not a word about civilian ninjas.

Tsk tsk!

He knows how to be a Hokage.

Because his base is the major families of the Hokage system. If he really took care of civilians everywhere, he would have lost his position as Hokage long ago.

As for civilian ninjas? .

Forget about shouting slogans, don't lie to yourself.

Why don't you take a look at how many civilians there are in the middle and high-level of Konoha? .

"By the way, I think Shinnosuke is the best commander of this unit, what did you say?"

Utatane Koharu recommended a man to be the commander of this newly formed ninja army.

Shinnosuke!

His full name is 'Sarutobi Shinnosuke', and he is also the current head of the Anbu.

This position was previously held by White Fang, and he also served as the leader of the jonin squad. With two extremely important positions in hand, it is no wonder that he is recognized as the next Hokage.

By the way, Sarutobi Shinnosuke is not only a member of the 'Sarutobi' clan, but also the eldest son of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"No, Shinnosuke is still young and not qualified to be the commander!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen refused.

Even though he has been trained since childhood, he is only an elite jonin now.

For ordinary ninjas, this is definitely a super genius, but for the son of the Hokage, this strength is a bit lame.

"No matter how young he is, he can't be younger than that kid Uchiha Dohei, right?"

Utatane Koharu gave a ready-made example.

Uchiha Dohei!

He is only 14 years old this year, but he has already become the CEO... No, he has already taken the position of the chief general.

No one would care about the previous temporary replacement.

But now he has truly taken the position of the chief general, the kind that is unquestionable.

Yes, there are already examples, so it is no big deal to let the head of the Anbu serve as the chief general of a party.

"That's right, Hiruzen, you Sarutobi clan should also contribute to the village!"

Mito Kado En also followed suit.

Why? .

Of course, it is because only when Sarutobi Shinnosuke takes the position can the interests of the families behind him and Utatane Koharu be guaranteed.

They don't have the ambition of Danzo, and they just want to maintain the current situation.

Then relying on the Sarutobi clan is naturally the best choice.

If you want to become a Hokage, the chief general is the only way, otherwise you don't even have the qualification to be nominated.

Now you know why Danzo had to grab the position of the chief general before? .

At this time, pushing Sarutobi Shinnosuke to the position is the best opportunity.

All the elites were drawn from the major ninja clans, and they beat the Sand Ninja whose morale was low. How could they lose? .

Hearing this, Danzo's fists hardened.

Hokage is mine!

At the same time, he secretly roared in his heart.

Anyone who wants to sit on the position of Hokage will be regarded as his opponent.

That's why he hit White Fang hard.

However, Danzo didn't want to destroy the opponent, but just wanted to teach him a lesson so that he would have no chance to sit on the position of Hokage, but he didn't expect that the situation would develop later.

From this point of view, Danzo is really pure. He eliminated Uchiha and sat on the position of Hokage. Everything was done for this purpose.

"Let Shinnosuke be the main general. If the Sand Ninja army counterattacks..."

Danzo wanted to use this to dispel the plans of his two friends.

After all, although the Sand Ninja was defeated, it does not mean that there is no counterattack force.

There are at least more than 2,000 Sand Ninjas, and among the strong ones, only the elite Jonin of the Hidden Rock Village, ‘Kari’, was killed. Once they encounter those Kage-level strongmen, it will be bad.

“Don’t worry, with the protection of the elites of the major families, there is no need to worry even if there are Kage-level strongmen!”

Utatane Koharu is full of confidence.

If the ninja army is composed of civilian ninja troops, there may be some worries.

But the elites from the major families are far superior to civilian ninjas in terms of training and strength.

With them protecting Sarutobi Shinnosuke, there is no need to worry even if there are Kage-level strongmen.

How can Danzo talk to two people alone.

The key is to make Sarutobi Hiruzen tempted.

This is indeed a great opportunity to brush merits, and the danger is not great.

In the end, Sarutobi Shinnosuke came forward to form a 1,000-man ninja army to expel the Sand Ninja Army, and that was the final decision.

As for the original Southwestern Ninja Army? .

Of course, it was responsible for guarding Mount Kikyo to prevent the Sand Ninja from passing through here and attacking Konoha Village.

This reason was legitimate and there was no flaw at all.

After the meeting.

The official order was immediately sent to the Southwestern Ninja Army to cooperate with the new Ninja Army that was about to be formed.

Mount Kikyo!

At this time, it had become a ruin, with tents everywhere, forming a temporary camp.

Even without a fortress, everyone was more relaxed than before.

Who let the "Purifying Flame" sit in charge.

With such a commander, the sense of security is directly maximized.

Purifying Flame!

Yes, this is Dohei's title.

The title that was killed was not given by others.

The title of "Three Ninjas" given by Hanzo was insulting in nature, and it was only later that it was finally whitewashed into an idol group by relying on the performance of the three people themselves.

And the title of the Purifying Flame of Dohei is indeed very appropriate.

The first two characters come from his words "Let the flame purify everything" when he entered the Sage Mode, and the last two characters refer to his proficiency in fire escape.

It can only be said that there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

It is precisely because of this appropriate and vivid title that it spreads quickly in the camp and spreads rapidly.

Not far from Kikyo on the river!

As the commander, Uchiha Dohei has been "occupying" this place.

Fishing!

He threw all the things to Nara Shikaku who helped temporarily.

But no one expressed dissatisfaction.

Just kidding, a "sage" who defeated two Kage-level strongmen head-on is completely right to say anything.

When you are strong, everything you say is right.

At this time, Dohei realized this.

"How is it?"

Looking at the little fat man coming, he asked casually.

"Is it a bit..."

Honda Ying still has some integrity, so he seems a little embarrassed.

"The Honda Chamber of Commerce..."

Dou Ping stretched out his voice.

The other family's chamber of commerce wants to become a supplier of the Southwestern Ninja Army, and this power is naturally in the hands of him as the chief general, so it's not too easy to control his best friend.

"The title of Purifying Flame is only worthy of you, Dou Ping, and there is absolutely no flattery, it's all recognition...!"

Honda Eagle immediately changed his words.

Yes, the title of Purifying Flame was not passed down by the Sand Ninja.

But Dou Ping came up with it himself, and then let Honda Eagle spread it.

With this title, he is not afraid of being called "Konoha Birdman", "Blue Flame"... and other embarrassing names in the future.

Don't think it won't happen.

Konoha White Fang, Evil Eyes, Ninja Dark... and other embarrassing names are not few.

Anyway, Dou Ping doesn't want to die in the future.

So he first gave himself the title of "Purifying Flame".

Although "Purifying Flame" is more domineering and better sounding.

But think about the Shamatte hiding in the mountain cemetery, the filial son hiding in the pure land, and Kaguya-hime hiding on the moon, so don't steal the show like this for now.

His strength won't allow it!

Wait until he can punch "Madara" and kick the filial son before using such a title that steals the show.

After talking about the title, Honda Ying mentioned another thing by the way.

Someone has come to the village.
