Chapter 167 Tsunade's Embrace (Part 3, Part 4)

"Yesterday morning, hundreds of ninjas from Kirigakure Village entered Kawakuni and established outposts."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice, "Their commander is the Seven Ninja Swordsmen."

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen are the elite team of Kirigakure Village. Everyone is at the level of a jounin and is famous for being equipped with a ninja sword.

According to legend, seven of them can conquer a small country overnight.

"Although the number is small, the strength is very strong."

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued, "Moreover, they are backed by the sea and can be attacked or defended, which is very troublesome."

"On the left of the Kingdom of Sichuan is the Kingdom of Wind, and on the right is the Kingdom of Fire."

Nara Shikaku stood up and asked, "Is Kirigakure's target Sunagakure Village or Konoha Village?"

"Not sure yet."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said, "But Sunagakure Village has already asked us for help."

In his opinion, Kirigakure Village's target is most likely Sunagakure Village.

Sunagakure Village suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of Cloud Hidden Village, and the number of ninjas left at the base camp was already less than half.

If Kirigakure Village launches a large-scale attack, it will most likely be unstoppable.

Even if you block it, you will have to pay an extremely heavy price.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about taking advantage of the opportunity to take over Sunagakure Village.

But thinking about Yunyin Village and Yanyin Village, I decided to stay put.

"Sunagakure Village will send five hundred ninjas to meet us."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment and said, "Konoha Village also sent five hundred ninjas, led by Tsunade."

Tsunade nodded casually upon hearing this.

A war involving a thousand ninjas is not considered intense.

The only troublesome one is the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

Hanekawa looked strange.

Could this be the battle in the original work where Matt Dai fought against the seven Ninja Swordsmen alone and turned them into three auspicious treasures?

But now that Tsunade is involved, it's hard to say what the outcome will be.

"One last thing."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said.

Everyone in the conference room couldn't help but look at each other.

This is truly an eventful time, and there is a feeling that the storm is about to come.

"Iwagakure Village is currently mobilizing supplies."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a headache, "Although I don't know who they want to deal with, Konoha Village must be one of their targets."

Hanekawa was thoughtful.

In the original work, Iwagakure Village mainly attacked Kumogakure Village, sending 10,000 ninjas, and finally besieged and killed the Third Raikage.

The second sneak attack was on Konoha Village, resulting in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, resulting in the whereabouts of Uchiha Obito being unknown.

Of course, he was actually rescued by Madara Uchiha, and talked to him about the Eye of the Moon project during the few months he was training.

But Uchiha Obito didn't approve and still wanted to return to Konoha.

Madara Uchiha took control of the ninjas in Kirigakure Village, captured Nohara Rin, and sealed the three-tailed Isofu in her body.

After learning the situation from Bai Zetsu, Uchiha Obito rushed to rescue, only to see the scene where Hatake Kakashi killed her.

He opened the Mangekyo Sharingan angrily, fell into blackness, and began to implement the Eye of the Moon plan.

Hanekawa was wondering if Uchiha Madara's plan would change.

After all, Nohara Rin is not Uchiha Obito's teammate now, and with Tsunade around, it will be difficult to catch her.

"Iwagakure Village is mainly patrolling, and Hatake Sakumo is in charge."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said after thinking for a moment.

"I think the most suitable ninja is Namikaze Minato."

Danzo Shimura suddenly interrupted.

"Minato is helping Sunagakure Village defend Kumogakure Village, and there's no way he can get back now."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said.

"When Orochimaru arrives in the Land of Frost, Minato will be able to take the time to leave."

Danzo Shimura glanced at Orochimaru and said rationally.

His purpose was actually very simple, he was worried that Minato Namikaze would take the credit.

After all, his flying thunder god technique is really a weapon of war.

Orochimaru frowned slightly.

In his opinion, Danzo Shimura did not trust his ability.

He's just a junior, can't he still suppress him?

"Minato possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique. If there is any action in the Iwagakure Village, he can report it in time."

Mito Kadoyan echoed, "This kind of life-and-death matter cannot be delayed in the slightest."

"Then Minato."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while and finally agreed.

Mainly, Shimura Danzo and Mito Monobu are right.

Hanekawa raised an eyebrow.

He just had the idea of stopping it, but then he thought about it and it was a good thing.

Without Namikaze Minato, Orochimaru will face the future fourth generation Raikage Ai and Kirabi, as well as the two Yukito.

Although he is very strong, he is not that strong yet, and the fight will inevitably be very difficult and long.

"Needless to say the rest, war is coming. I hope everyone will make more preparations and pay attention to safety."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and said, "The meeting is dismissed!"

"yes."

Everyone answered in unison.

When the meeting ended, no one was in the mood to talk or reminisce, and left one after another.

Tsunade originally wanted to chat with Orochimaru, but saw him walking towards Sarutobi Hiruzen, so she chose to give up.

"Old man, I hope to bring the Uchiha clan with me."

Before Hanekawa left, he heard the conversation between Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

There was a thought in his mind, and he suddenly had a guess.

The reason why Orochimaru took the initiative to go to the battlefield, in addition to cooperating with Shimura Danzo, was probably for the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.

Hanekawa shook his head and ignored it.

After all, he couldn't interfere with Orochimaru's work.

Even if they go to remind the Uchiha clan, the damned still have to die.

"What a pity."

After leaving the meeting room, Tsunade suddenly spoke.

"What a pity?"

Hekawa turned his head slightly and looked at her delicate profile.

"Your birthday is in two days."

Tsunade explained, "If the war can be delayed for a few days, it will just be staggered."

"This."

Hekawa smiled and said, "Don't worry, if you don't say it, I have already forgotten about birthdays."

"You mean you forgot my birthday too?"

Tsunade changed the subject and asked suddenly.

Hekawa was stunned.

No, why did you turn your face so quickly?

"Of course not!"

Hekawa said quickly, "I will never forget the teacher's birthday!"

Tsunade stared at him for a few seconds and suddenly laughed.

"......?"

Hekawa's mouth twitched.

"Yes, you are still very filial to the teacher."

Tsunade said with a smile on her face.

"But you obviously have no love for students."

Hekawa glared at her and said.

"What do you mean?"

Tsunade's smile froze, she grabbed his collar, leaned forward, and asked, "Am I not good to you?"

A faint fragrance came to her face.

At a close distance, Hanekawa felt that Tsunade's face looked even more beautiful.

Of course, if you look down, you can see the thrilling white snow scene, which will rise and fall with your breathing.

"Of course it's very good!"

Henekawa said from the heart.

"For the sake of your birthday, I will let you go today."

Tsunade let go of her hand and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This kid is getting more and more beautiful, and it's very stressful to look at him for a long time.

Everyone has a love of beauty, and she is no exception.

Normal humans are either face-chasers or hidden face-chasers. When they see handsome men and beautiful women on the road, they will take a second look.

"Teacher, how about taking Uncle Dai with you when you go to the country of rivers this time?"

Henekawa followed and asked.

"Yeah."

Tsunade did not refuse, "He is quite strong, and can be used against the Seven Ninja Swordsmen."

"Are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen that powerful?"

Hekawa shook his head.

In his opinion, the only top-level warrior among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen is Hoshigaki Kisame.

And he is one of the second generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. The current Seven Ninja Swordsmen are the first generation, without him.

The first generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen did not show much in the original work.

Biwa Juzo has the most scenes. After betraying the village, he joined the Akatsuki organization and became a teammate of Uchiha Itachi.

But his death was also very hasty.

He used a beheading sword to fight against the Tailed Beast Ball of the Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, and was hit and killed by the beheading sword that bounced back.

"Don't underestimate them."

Tsunade raised her hand, flicked his forehead, and said, "They are equivalent to the three ninjas of Konoha in the Hidden Mist Village."

"How can they be better than the teacher?"

Please...you...collect_6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Hekawa couldn't help but complain.

By comparison, the three ninjas of Konoha have lost value!

"I'm talking about status."

Tsunade snorted and said, "Of course they can't match my strength, but they are more than enough to beat you."

"That's hard to say."

Hekawa said unconvinced, "I have the Yin Seal now!"

Tsunade was slightly stunned.

Thinking carefully, this kid is really not weak.

She couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Unknowingly, has his strength reached this point?

"I know!"

Tsunade narrowed her eyes and said with a smile, "You can deal with one, but not seven."

"I'm not one against seven."

Hekawa's mouth twitched, and asked, "Why do you have nothing to do to fight them alone?"

"Don't talk back."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at him and strode forward.

Not long after, the two returned home.

"Tsunade teacher!"

When Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin saw them, they took the initiative to move forward and asked, "What's the situation?"

"The war has started, we will leave tomorrow morning."

Hekawa replied.

"The Hidden Cloud Village again?"

Yuhi Kurenai complained, "They are really annoying!"

"Yes and no."

Hekawa said in suspense.

"Huh?"

Yuhi Kurenai subconsciously grabbed his wrist, "Hurry up!"

"It's like this."

Hekawa repeated the three things that Sarutobi Hiruzen said at the Jonin meeting.

Yuhi Kurenai couldn't help but widen her eyes.

The situation is more serious than she thought.

Nohara Rin's face showed deep worry.

Once the war started, who knows how many people would die.

And most importantly, the people she knew would also be in danger.

"Okay, don't scare them."

Tsunade stepped forward, stepped on his foot, and said, "Things haven't gotten that bad yet, you go back and prepare well."

"Yes, Tsunade-sensei."

Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin came back to their senses and said in unison.

The next morning.

"I never thought that there would be a day when we, father and daughter, would fight side by side."

At the dinner table, Yuhi Makoto said with emotion.

"Don't worry, Hanekawa and I will protect you!"

Yuhi Kurenai said confidently.

"......?"

Yuhi Makoto's face was full of question marks.

What is against Tiangang?

"With your strength, it's only me who protects you."

Yuhi Zhenhong snorted softly and said.

"Yeah?"

Yuhi Kurenai curled her lips and said, "You definitely can't beat Hanekawa."

"What do you call that?"

Yuhi Mahong looked at Hanekawa and said, "Let's go out and compete!"

"Uncle Zhenhong, we are going to gather at the gate of Konoha Village soon. It is not advisable to waste any more time."

Hanekawa coughed slightly and said.

How dare he hit his future father-in-law?

And Kurenai Yuhi was right, he really couldn't beat her.

"Actually, I was going to the battlefield of Yunyin Village."

Yuhi Makoto changed the subject and said, "But Nara Suzaku, who was selecting candidates for Tsunade-sama, transferred me to the battlefield of Kirigakure Village."

Nara Suzaku?

Hanekawa had a slight impression.

He is a jounin of the Nara clan. In the original work, he was responsible for monitoring and intercepting Uzumaki Naruto during the Fourth Ninja War.

"It looks like I've taken advantage of you."

Yuhi Zhenhong said very pleased.

He had always hoped that Yuhi Hong and Hanekawa would succeed.

Now it seems that half of it has been achieved, and they already have a certain influence in Konoha Village.

Although most of them are brought about by Tsunade's status as a student.

After breakfast, the three people came to the gate of Konoha Village and met with five hundred ninjas.

Tsunade gave the order and everyone headed towards Kawa no Kuni.

The Kingdom of Sichuan is adjacent to the Kingdom of Fire and is located on the west side of the Kingdom of Fire.

After walking for two days, the group arrived at the Country of Sichuan.

But without going deep, we found a remote place on the border and started setting up camp.

One is because the Kingdom of Kawakawa has been occupied by the Kirigakure Village ninjas in advance. If you rush deeper, you may encounter traps or ambushes.

The second is to wait for the ninjas from Sunagakure Village to join them.

By dinner time, Hanekawa's tent became lively.

Because today is his and Tsunade's birthday.

Although it's a bit hasty and we're still in the country of Kawawa, there's no problem in having a sumptuous dinner to celebrate.

In addition to Hanekawa and Tsunade, there are also Yuhi Kurenai, Nohara Rin, Yuhi Ma Kurenai and Matt Dai.

"Birthday, how youthful!"

Matt Day said with excitement.

"It would be great if Kakashi and Gai were here!"

Yuhi Hong's face showed regret.

"We can meet again after the war is over."

Nohara Lin said softly.

"Don't talk about this, let's eat."

Hanekawa quickly stopped her from planting the flag.

Because we were in the country of Kawakawa, and ninjas from Kirigakure Village would appear at any time, so after eating, everyone left one after another.

"I didn't prepare a gift. I'll give it to you next time."

In the end, only Tsunade was left.

"It's okay, I didn't prepare a gift."

Hanekawa suddenly felt something in his heart and said, "I have a way to make both you and me give gifts."

"What can I do?"

Tsunade couldn't help but asked curiously.

"How about we hug?"

Hanekawa blinked and asked.

Tsunade was slightly startled and just stared at him.

Until he felt a little guilty, she stepped forward and hugged Hanekawa.

The soft and warm aroma hits your face.

Hanekawa subconsciously hugged her waist.
