Chapter 498 The necessary decision

You should know that although Konohagakure is the largest ninja village.

Under extreme circumstances, it is completely possible to recruit more than 20,000 ninjas.

But you should know that there are already tens of thousands of ninjas sent to the front line. So far, only a few hundred ninjas can receive accurate messages and return smoothly.

None of the outstanding ninjas at the level of Kakashi, Might Guy, Shikaku, Haiyi, Zhiwei, etc. have returned.

This is an extremely heavy blow to Konohagakure.

In terms of quantity, half of the combat power has been directly destroyed. In terms of quality, it has been completely damaged. Now the ninjas left in the ninja village are almost only mid-level ninjas.

All the ninjas who could be sent out before have gone to the front line.

Only ninjas with special identities like Hyuga Hiashi will stay in the village, including Tsunade herself, that is, the front line collapsed too quickly, otherwise, in a day or two, Tsunade herself will go to the front line.

It was not because of the request of the Hidden Cloud Village.

It was to limit Danzo's power.

Even if Tsunade was willing to bear all the responsibilities, she would never watch the position of Hokage and the power of the village fall into Danzo's hands.

Of course, there is no need to worry about these issues now.

Danzo is dead, and the village is facing a huge crisis of survival.

"Two elders, please tell me, in this situation, what should we do? Should we choose unconditional surrender as announced by the Hidden Light Village? Or should we make a final desperate struggle?"

Tsunade said to Mitomon En and Utatane Koharu with an extremely heavy and tired expression.

And in these words, there is also a deep sense of sadness.

Although Tsunade knew that Konoha was not as good as before when she returned to the village three years ago, and it was no exaggeration to say that it was getting worse year by year, fortunately, the size and foundation were still there, and there were Jiraiya and her on top, and Kakashi was a person who could be regarded as a face in the middle. In the younger generation, Shikamaru, Kiba, Neji and others led by Naruto were also worth looking forward to.

Overall, as long as they concentrate on developing, Konohagakure might not be able to reproduce its heyday in ten or twenty years.

But it was during these three years.

Konoha was like a train speeding towards the abyss, sliding down unstoppably.

Now it is facing the danger of destruction.

The reason is just one person-Uzumaki Menma.

Tsunade really didn't know how to deal with it.

If it weren't for the persistence in her heart, Tsunade would have wanted to break the jar.

Hearing Tsunade's question.

Mizukado En and Utatane Koharu both had extremely serious expressions.

"Under this situation, there is only one way to save the village, Tsunade."

Mizukado En took a deep breath, looked directly at Tsunade, and said in a deep voice.

It is obvious that the two consultants still have alternative plans.

One way?

Tsunade, who was originally asking symbolically, had already made up her mind in her heart to be responsible for her village and fulfill the last duty of Hokage. When she heard Mizukado En's words, she was subconsciously stunned.

No, you two old guys can really make gold coins?

Tsunade looked straight at Mizukado En and Utatane Koharu.

But it was only a few seconds later.

A certain thought suddenly flashed through Tsunade's mind, and the next second, Tsunade's expression became very scary.

"Two consultants, what you are talking about is not that one method!?"

Tsunade pursed her lips and looked at the two consultants with a very dangerous look, her clenched hands seemed to be ready to attack at any time.

The conversation was confusing.

Shizune, who was sitting on the side, was completely confused. She looked at the two consultants carefully, and then turned her eyes to Tsunade. She really didn't understand what the three were talking about at all.

"Yes, it is that one method. Use the Impure World Reincarnation Technique to summon the successive Hokage, especially the first generation. As long as the first generation is there, the threat of Uzumaki Menma will naturally be solved."

Mito Kado En nodded heavily, looked at Tsunade with an extremely serious expression, and said word by word.

The second generation Hokage - Senju Tobirama once developed countless forbidden techniques.

These forbidden techniques are the most precious treasures of Konohagakure Village, and they are all extremely special existences. Among these special forbidden techniques.

The Impure World Reincarnation Technique is undoubtedly the most special one.

Because this is an extremely evil technique that defiles the souls of the dead and summons the dead back to reality.

It is a technique that has been expressly prohibited from being used by anyone since the Third Hokage.

Tsunade clearly wanted to see the two people she once loved, but in the end she still rejected Orochimaru's request for a deal, which is enough to show Tsunade's attitude towards this technique.

Even if this is a ninjutsu developed by her second grandfather.

"Bang!"

"Mitomon Elder, do you know what you are saying? I will never allow this technique to be used to summon my great grandfather, second grandfather and others!"

Tsunade stood up suddenly, slapped the table in front of her heavily, and said with a hint of anger.

The dead should rest in their own place.

The living should not disturb the rest of the dead.

This is taboo.

What's more, future generations cannot solve the problem and still need to disturb the souls of the ancestors. This is so helpless and ridiculous.

"Then Tsunade, do you have any other ways to solve the current predicament? Or do you want to watch Konoha be destroyed!? Or do you want to surrender unconditionally as that evil boy Uzumaki Menma said!?"

"I will fulfill my duties. As Hokage, I will fight on the front line. I will use my life to protect the village!"

Tsunade said loudly.

"Yes, you will fulfill your duties as Hokage, and we also believe that you can protect the village at all costs, but, Tsunade, can you protect the village!? Your fight, in the end, your death, can really In exchange for the stability of the village? The coalition forces of the four major countries have failed. Now, it is very likely that nine tailed beasts have been gathered in Guangyin Village. Although it is not clear how Uzumaki Menma did it in such a short time. The jinchuriki can be produced in batches and the tailed beasts can cooperate so well, but there is no doubt that this is the most terrifying force. Or should I say that just one Uzumaki Menma can sweep across our Konoha. Your death is just The battle of spirits is just about your personal peace of mind. In the end, Konoha will still be destroyed, and the hard work of the previous Hokages will be destroyed!"

"Tsunade, is this what you want to see!?"

Mito Kadoyan also stood up, looked at Tsunade sternly, and scolded sternly.

The ultimate politically correct statement.

It is the bloody reality that Chi Guoguo points out.

Facing Mito Gate's forcing eyes and listening to Mito Gate's extremely true words, all Tsunade's words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say anything.

Yes, what can I protect?

Many years ago, I couldn't save my brother or my lover.

Many years later, I could not save my master or my best friend.

Now as Hokage, he can't protect the village either.

Tsunade sat back on her chair helplessly, with a look of sadness on her beautiful face.

I am the most useless person.

Nothing can be protected.

Nothing can be done.

"Tsunade, we also know that such a forbidden technique should not be used. It is disrespectful to disturb the souls of the previous Hokages and a taboo that destroys human relations. But compared with the safety of the village, it is nothing. It seems so insignificant. I believe that the previous generations of Hokage will understand us, especially the second generation. He developed this technique and it is very likely that he was prepared for this time, isn't it? Tsunade, everything? The responsibility will be borne by the two of us, so don’t worry!”

Koharu, who was sleeping on one side, also opened his eyes, looked at Tsunade with an extremely serious and solemn expression and tone, and said softly.

"This is a helpless choice in a desperate situation, Tsunade, we have no other options, no other options."

Seeing Tsunade's expression, Mito Katoyan also softened his tone a bit and said.

If possible, how could the two of them be willing to use such evil techniques? They are not Danzo. From the bottom of their hearts, they have almost the same personality as Sarutobi Hiruzen. Otherwise, in the past, they would not have been able to say that they would always stand firmly on Sarutobi Hiruzen's side.

However, now it has really reached the point where the village will be destroyed if this technique is not used to summon past Hokage.

They have no choice.

"Yeah, I have no choice."

Tsunade showed a helpless smile.

"But, two elders, even if the uncle and the others are really reincarnated from the dirt, will they be able to stop Uzumaki Menma? Orochimaru also used this technique three years ago to summon the uncle and the second grandfather, right? You two should know best that the strength displayed by the summoned Grandpa and Second Grandpa is not even one-tenth of their strength during their lifetimes. Otherwise, the old man would not be able to stop them. Orochimaru, Uzumaki Menma is now almost as good as the great grandfather of the past, so what’s the point of having the great grandfather and second grandfather come with the same level of strength from the soil? "

Tsunade shook her head and said with an obvious look of defeat on her face.

After all, I still haven’t really witnessed a battle between higher levels.

In the eyes of ordinary people in the ninja world at this moment, whether it is Menma or Metkai who has activated the Eight Gate Armor Formation, his target is still the ninja god of the past - Senju Hashirama, but even so, It's enough to make everyone feel desperate.

Therefore, it would be meaningless if he did not summon Senju Hashirama back in his prime.

It's not that Tsunade looked down on her Hokage teacher.

To be honest, it is.

Even if the teacher in his family was at the peak of his prime, he would still be no match for the second grandfather, let alone the eldest grandfather.

Therefore, this can be judged 100%.

During the chunin exam.

The strength of the Great Grandpa and Second Grandpa summoned by Orochimaru were definitely not even one-tenth of what they were at their peak during their lifetimes.

It could even be lower.

"Of course we know this, but how strong the soul of the dead summoned by this technique can be depends on the strength of the physical sacrifice summoned by the soul. This is the most important point. In addition, the accuracy of the caster, and in that Chunin Exam, Orochimaru used special talismans to wipe out the consciousness of the first and second generations in order to control them, which also greatly restricted the strength of the two adults."

Mitomon En nodded and said.

"We have already obtained the core of this technique after Orochimaru's second improvement from Danzo's roots, and we also learned the most perfect sacrifice material from Danzo. It is said that it is an artificial sacrifice cultivated by Orochimaru using the cells of the first generation in advance. The strength of the body is most suitable for summoning the previous generations of Hokage, no more, no less, just four!"

Utatane Koharu also continued.

"Where is Danzo? Orochimaru?"

An unexpected answer, but it seems to be completely reasonable.

The relationship between Orochimaru and Danzo

Tsunade and other high-ranking officials of the Hidden Leaf Village actually knew it well.

Therefore, it is completely understandable that Danzo would get an improved version of the core of this technique, including things like sacrifices.

Although it feels a little bit out of place.

But it seems to make sense.

"Then why didn't Danzo summon the grandfather himself?"

Tsunade frowned and said.

What kind of person is Danzo.

Doesn't Tsunade know it yet?

With such a killer move, how could he not use it?

"Ahem, Danzo also has his own considerations, because Orochimaru doesn't seem to have given Danzo a spell of cursed paper to erase consciousness."

Mitomonen and Utatane Koharu thought it was very reasonable.

There is no special talisman to erase consciousness.

How dare Danzo summon the previous Hokage easily?

Compared to Tsunade.

The two consultants know Danzo better.

It is possible that the previous Hokage, especially their teacher, the Second Hokage, would attack Danzo as soon as he was summoned by Danzo.

This is not an exaggeration. According to their understanding of their Hokage mentor, this is absolutely a high probability, or even a 100% thing.

Therefore, for Danzo, who was still very confident at the time and did not feel that he had reached the end of his rope, it was completely okay not to summon the previous Hokage at the first time.

Tsunade was slightly touched by Mitomon En's slightly straightforward words, and she also reacted. Indeed, Shimura Danzo did not dare to summon the previous Hokage easily, just like what that guy did.

According to Tsunade's own understanding of her great grandfather and second grandfather, they would definitely beat Danzo up, and even kill this guy.

"Huh, this guy is well prepared!"
