Chapter 259 259 The First Ninja War (Part 2)

To be honest, with regard to the collective attack of the three major ninja villages, which can be called the "First Ninja War", Izuna's attitude was both expected and somewhat shocked.

Because in the original work, Senju Hashirama also captured all the tailed beasts except the one-tailed Shukaku.

However, the first ninja war broke out after his death, Senju Hashirama.

From this point of view, just capturing the tailed beast should not be enough to cause other ninja villages to attack Konoha.

But if you think about it from another angle, it may be that compared to the original work, the attitude expressed by Konoha now is too tyrannical.

Moreover, the time of capturing the tailed beast should be different from the original work.

In the original work, it was probably after Senju Hashirama broke up with Madara that he realized the power of the tailed beast and started to capture the tailed beast.

However, at that time, only Senju Hashirama was left guarding Konoha, which made other ninja villages feel that Konoha was not that dangerous.

Therefore, there was no group attack.

But now, three people, led by themselves, Senju Hashirama, and Madara, snatched away the tailed beast with such a tyrannical attitude.

This is likely to arouse the vigilance of other ninja villages, thinking that they should take this opportunity to attack Konoha.

At the same time, it was also to protect the remaining two tailed beasts from being captured by Konoha.

Senju Hashirama said solemnly: "Now, how many ninja troops can be mobilized in our village? It doesn't matter if you are under twelve years old."

Because of the peaceful period, many ninja parents do not want their children to become ninjas.

Therefore, in the past eight years, the number of new students shown on the Ninja School's annual freshman registration form has never exceeded 500.

During the Warring States Period, in emergencies, anyone over eight years old could perform tasks.

But now, the ninja clan in the Land of Fire have united and become a terrifying force.

Senju Yoma, who is in charge of logistics and is also Senju Hashirama's assistant, said: "If the children under the age of twelve are removed, the number of combat forces that can be deployed to the battlefield is about 30,000."

"There is no need for Naruto to go to the front line in person. You need to be the commander-in-chief and strategize from behind. Unless it is absolutely necessary, stay away from Konoha as the last barrier to protect this place."

Quan Na reminded.

Senju Hashirama, who originally wanted to go to the battlefield in person, thought about it and felt that what Izuna said made sense.

This is no longer the era when patriarchs took the lead in charging into battle.

After all, their purpose in fighting this battle was to protect Konoha.

As the Hokage, he should be Konoha's last barrier.

Izuna commanded: "Hinata, Hatake, and Kaguya will follow me to the western battlefield to attack Sunagakure and Iwagakure. Sarutobi, Shimura, and Inuzuka will go north with their eldest brother to attack Kumogakure, Senju, Inokagakure, etc. The remaining clans will guard the area around Konoha and be careful of the raiding troops that sneak in."

Senju Tobirama raised his eyebrows, feeling that Izuna's behavior was a bit overstepped. These orders should have been issued by his brother as the Hokage.

However, the other clan leaders had a matter-of-fact expression and did not raise any objections.

In other words, they simply don't dare.

Thinking of this, Senju Tobirama subconsciously looked at his brother.

When he noticed the dissatisfied look in his younger brother Tobirama's eyes, Senju Hashirama instantly understood what he meant.

He responded with a smile, signaling Senju Tobirama not to get angry.

Qianju Feijian frowned twice and said: "With such a huge combat power, Qianju would be overqualified to stay in the village. Why don't you let me lead it and work with Madara to attack the Kingdom of Thunder?"

"Why do you need so much trouble?"

Madara smiled coldly, his tone full of arrogance, "Let those beasts out and control them with my Sharingan. Kumogakure's waste can fill up the entire canyon of the Kingdom of Thunder with their corpses in an instant. "

Senju Tobirama's eyes changed and he looked at Senju Hashirama again.

Senju Hashirama also seemed to have thought of something in an instant, and also refused: "It is too dangerous to release the tailed beast in one breath. Reina and Mito are currently studying more suitable methods to control the tailed beast, please wait."

Madara raised his eyebrows and said nothing more.

"Okay, the distribution is over, take action as I said, and meet at the main entrance square of Konoha in two hours!"

Finally, under Quan Nai's order, all the clan leaders and their guards in the conference room quickly stood up and returned to their respective clans to make first-hand preparations.

"In the first ninja world war, you, as the Hokage, initiated the declaration of war to show that your side is the master of justice. Do you understand? Hashirama."

Izuna stood up, and when she was about to leave the conference room with Madara, she turned to remind Senju Hashirama.

"Ah...I understand."

Senju Hashirama nodded.

Immediately, Izuna and Madara rushed back to the Uchiha clan to make final preparations before the war.

On the way back, Madara suddenly said, "That guy Hashirama is guarding us."

When Quan Nai heard this, he looked startled, then smiled lightly and said: "This is normal."

…

at home.

Mito, who possesses the Yin Seal and still maintains the delicate appearance of his early twenties, personally tied the armor's string on Izuna and said softly: "The war has started again."

Quan Nai kept a smile on her lips, "Peace has lasted for eight years, which is already a long time, and it will get longer and longer in the future."

"must be careful."

After tying the last string, Mito raised his eyes and said to Izuna.

"Um."

Izuna hooked Mito's snow-white chin, kissed him gently on the lips, then turned around and strode towards the village gate square.

On the city wall of the gate, Senju Hashirama was already standing directly above, waiting for more than 20,000 Konoha ninjas to form a neat square formation, and shouted loudly:

"Ninjas of Konoha! The eight years of peace were earned by us and our ancestors with our flesh and blood! Now, the war has begun again! It's our turn to build the foundation for peace for future generations!

I, Senju Hashirama, will protect your family for you! If you want to hurt them, you must step over my body, Senju Hashirama!

So everyone, fight to protect Konoha! I am here to wish you all a triumphant return! "

After hearing Senju Hashirama's assurance, everyone no longer had any worries.

One or two raised their arms and shouted:

"return with glory!"

"return with glory!"

"return with glory!"

…

Eight years have passed. I wonder if the spirit of these ninjas who survived the Warring States Period has been dulled by the time of peace.

How will the new generation of ninjas fight for the village on the battlefield?

All in all, the [First Ninja War], which is called this war in history, has officially begun!
