Chapter 397 Target, Wuying Village! (one more)
"Be sure to pay attention to safety!"
The next day, at the door of Konoha Gate, the third generation led the whole village to stand at the door, exhorting Li Chuan, who was wearing the Fifth Generation Hokage robe.
Since Li Chuan, the Hokage, has decided to personally rush to the eastern front to deal with the invading Kirigakure ninjas, how can such a morale boosting thing be done secretly.
Let all Konoha ninjas know with great fanfare that the newly appointed Fifth Hokage is paying for them and protecting the entire village.
This is the farewell scene specially proposed and arranged by the three generations in order to stabilize Li Chuan's regime.
Although Li Chuan is not the first choice for Hokage in his heart, Li Chuan is his nominal apprentice after all, and he has saved the entire Konoha, and has been paying for Konoha.
So in his heart, he still recognized Li Chuan, the Fifth Hokage, very much.
The key point is that after Li Chuan took over Hokage, everything was still implemented in accordance with his previous policies, and he did not collude with Danzo. He was really diligently handling various official duties.
The opinions of their advisors are also taken very seriously.
"Don't worry, three-generation old man, I, Uzumaki Naruto, will protect Brother Chuan!"
Before Li Chuan could reply, Naruto over there patted his chest and praised Haikou.
When Akatsuki attacked Konoha, Naruto followed Jilai to find Tsunade. At that time, because Li Chuan paid off his gambling debts and the third generation was not killed by Orochimaru, Tsunade resolutely rejected the request to come back to take over the fifth generation.
Then the two returned to Konoha, and at this time Li Chuan had become the Fifth Hokage.
This time Jiraiya brought a large number of Jonin to the northeast front to intercept the powerful cloud ninja invasion, and Naruto returned to the seventh squad led by Kakashi.
Most of Konoha's masters went to the northeast front, and the northwest side also sent a lot of ninjas to guard against the rain ninjas who had already taken sand ninjas, so the village is currently in a relatively empty state.
In order to prevent Li Chuan from being away, the third generation and a group of high-level officials took the opportunity to attack Naruto who is Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
On the pretext of protecting the Fifth Hokage, the seventh squad was sent to the east with Li Chuan to deal with the invading Kirigakure ninjas.
In fact, it was Li Chuan who went to take care of Mist Ninja while protecting Naruto.
"Naruto, I want to call Lord Wudai!"
At this moment, Sakura next to her slapped Naruto on the back of the head.
Now Li Chuan is the Fifth Hokage, so in such a public place, there must be rules.
"Teacher, the village will be handed over to you for the time being!"
Li Chuan smiled and didn't care. After handing over the temporary management of Konoha to the third generation, he said to Kakashi and the others:
"Grab my clothes, we're going to teleport right there."
In a flash, the figures of the four had disappeared at the gate of the village.
In the forest area of the easternmost coastal area of the Kingdom of Fire, in the temporary base of Konoha's third unit.
Through the items engraved with the flying thunder god formula sent in advance, Li Chuan and the four people from the seventh class appeared in the tent in an instant.
Konoha now has a total of three troops.
The first unit has the largest number and the strongest strength, led by Sannin Jiraiya, and it is dealing with the most powerful cloud ninja.
The second unit is the second largest in number, led by Hyuga Hyuzu, the patriarch of the Hyuga clan who is best at scouting, mainly to prevent Urenin from launching a surprise attack on Konoha.
The third unit has the smallest number of people, and is commanded by Jonin Mait Kai, who is the most powerful ninja. Most of them are physical ninjas, including Kai's three disciples Ningci, Xiaoli and Tiantian.
"Master Fifth Generation!"
When Kai, who had been guarding the tent for a long time, saw Li Chuan appear, he immediately showed his big white teeth and showed a sunny smile.
"And my eternal opponent Kakashi, it seems that today we can fight side by side again, and we will defeat more enemies by then, Kakashi!"
"This time we may not have a chance to make a move."
Kakashi replied with his dead fish eyes.
As one of the jonin who saw Li Chuan open all eight senses with his own eyes, he felt that following him this time was mainly to go through the motions to fix the aftermath.
"Kay, there are no casualties on our side?"
Li Chuan asked.
Kay immediately stood up straight:
"Reporting to Lord Fifth Generation, there are no casualties. We have been following the combat strategy transmitted by Lu Jiu, fighting while retreating, just delaying time."
Most of their troops are Taijutsu ninjas with very good physical strength, and they can run fast even if they can't beat them. They also arranged some medical ninjas, so even though the number of them is very different from that of Kirigakure's troops, there are basically no casualties.
When the enemy advances, they harass them, and when the enemy surrounds them, they flee. What they are fighting is guerrilla warfare.
Li Chuan nodded:
"Very good, then follow me to counterattack with all my strength. This time our goal is not only to repel them, but also to hit Wuyin Village."
"Hit to Wuyin Village!"
Not only Kai, but also Kakashi who followed him were stunned for a moment.
The original combat strategy was to drive back the Wuyin troops, so that they would not dare to take advantage of troubled waters to attack Konoha, but they did not say that they would hit Wuyin Village.
You must know that the country of water is an island country, but it is separated by a sea.
In the previous ninja wars, Kirigakure ninjas had always gone ashore to attack the major ninja villages. Basically, no major ninja villages would send large troops directly to fight on the island of the country of water.
From Li Chuan's point of view, this is like the relationship between the ancient Hua Kingdom and the Jiaopenji Kingdom. The Jiaopenji Kingdom has always sent troops to harass the coastal cities and villages of Huaguo, but Huaguo usually repulses them and beats them back.
But they will not lead an army to directly attack the island country where the foot pot chicken is located.
"That's right, in order to prevent Mist Ninja from getting into trouble again in the later stage against Cloud Ninja and Ameno Ninja, so this time we not only have to repel them, but also go to Kirigakure Village to tie their Mizukage back to the village!"
Li Chuan smiled relaxedly.
Kakashi and Kai looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
From the tone of Li Chuan's words just now, he felt that going to Wuyin Village to tie Shuiying back was easier than going to the vegetable market to buy a chicken.
"Teacher, Kirigakure's troops are surrounded again, we have to change places!"
At this moment, Neji, who detected Kirigakure's troops with white eyes, rushed into the tent.
"These guys are really fast!"
Kai sighed, then explained:
"The commander of the Kirigakure ninja force this time is the ninja on our village's gold-lettered arrest warrant, Ao, who is known as the 'White-Eyed Killer'. He participated in the Third World War and transplanted a white-eyed eye from the ninja corpse of the Hinata family.
So it is very troublesome to be able to detect our position with white eyes. "
"It's just in time, we don't need to look for them anymore, and let's take back that supercilious eye that doesn't belong to him!"
Li Chuan sneered when he heard the words, and strode out of the tent directly.
"Master Fifth Generation!"
When the ninjas of the third unit outside saw Li Chuan appearing, they immediately showed admiration and respect on their faces.
Many of them have participated in the defense of Konoha, were saved by Li Chuan, and have seen Li Chuan's strength.
