The second goal of the journey, cross-country, was quietly decided in my heart.
After solving the problem of the Land of Fire, go and solve the problem of Ryūchi Cave.
Then
the sky is the limit for cross-country, and the pace of unifying the ninja world will start after annexing the Land of Fire and solving the troubles in Ryūchi Cave.
After hurriedly traveling for nearly half a month, the two speed ninjas, Cross Country and the Fourth Hokage, had arrived in the Land of Fire.
So why did the Fourth Hokage take so long to cross country before entering the Land of Fire?
The reason is
that they are off-road. The Fourth Hokage went deep into the Land of Fire from the border of the Land of Rain. He took a look at the situation in the Land of Rain and what it is like now.
To be honest, the situation in the Land of Rain was actually expected from cross-country.
Because after losing Madara, the "Akatsuki" organization is temporarily without a leader. Even if Black Zetsu can replace Madara to handle some things, a guy like Black Zetsu is more suitable to hide in the dark, because if his plan is exposed, , all the ninjas in the ninja world, the first person they have to deal with must be Black Zetsu.
In this case, the "Akatsuki" organization is what Black Zetsu needs to give up, and even the Kingdom of Rain is what "Akatsuki" needs to give up.
Finding that the Kingdom of Rain was leaderless and looking like it was about to be chaotic, Cross Country and the Fourth Hokage didn't say anything, but they made a decision in their hearts, that is to let Yahiko, the real leader of the "Akatsuki" organization Yahiko, one of the founders, went to the Country of Rain to annex it, striving to complete the integration of the Three Kingdoms of Rain Country, Wave Country, and Fire Country after the Fourth Hokage settled the affairs of the Fire Country cross-country.
Let’s talk about Yahiko.
In the Land of Waves, Yahiko spent a lot of time trying to communicate with Nagato and Konan every day. However, Yahiko is also a natural leader, he knows what to do and what not to do when. Therefore, after receiving instructions from the Fourth Hokage for cross-country, Yahiko led the two apprentices of cross-country, namely Kimimaro and Shiro, to the Land of Rain, preparing to take the two apprentices of cross-country for a good experience.
Another apprentice of Cross Country, Uchiha Xuan Yue, accompanied Tsunade Ji to stay in Shigulin to treat his eyes.
But looking at Tsunade Hime's appearance, he knew that Uchiha Xuan Yue's eyes would be a little troublesome to get treatment for.
So off-road people secretly regretted why they couldn't keep Madara's eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. In that case, Uchiha Genzuki's eyes might regain their brightness.
certainly.
There are hidden dangers in Madara's Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. It's just that Cross Country has a mentality of rushing to seek medical treatment, so he secretly regretted that he could not keep Madara's Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
At this time, when we arrived at the border of the Land of Fire, the guards of the Uchiha clan's garrison suddenly disappeared, and instead became the ninja troops of the Hyuga clan stationed there.
In the original Naruto novel, why does the "wealthy" Hyuga clan give people the impression of being sparsely populated?
Because, when the Uchiha clan, as a "rich family", controlled the rights of the police force, they also had the right to guard the border. This was the right held by the "rich family". Now, the Uchiha clan has evacuated the Leaf Village and developed in the cross-country Wave Country. The matter of stationing at the border of the Fire Country is naturally carried out by the current "rich" Hyuga clan.
Unfortunately, the Hyuga clan still lacks some foundation.
I found that there were not only ninjas from the Hyuga clan in the garrison at the border, but also ninjas from other families, or civilian families, who were mixed with the ninja troops of the Hyuga clan. Using Kagura's inner eye, I could sense the ninjas from the Hyuga clan. With a arrogant attitude, facing the ninjas from other families or civilian families, Cross Country sighed silently and said to the Fourth Hokage next to him: "Minato-sensei, in fact, if we could have come a few years later, then The Land of Fire will really fall, because the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan are really different." "
Hmm?"
The Fourth Hokage raised his eyebrows and asked: "Xiu Xiang, did you find anything? ?"
"Yes."
He nodded silently and said cross-country: "The Uchiha clan has a "rich" style, even if they look down on the ninjas of other families, even if they look down on the civilian ninjas, but in some small things, the Uchiha clan It is impossible for other ninjas to show it, because they will look arrogant and out of place. On the contrary, the ninjas of the Hyuga clan, who have just gained some small rights, are actually condescending to the ninjas of other families. Those civilian ninjas don't take it seriously."
"When I was using Kagura's inner eye for insight, I found several ninjas from the Hyuga clan oppressing ninjas from other families, as well as civilian ninjas. If this continues If so, Konoha Village will begin to collapse from within sooner or later. Even our beloved Third Hokage probably never expected that the Hyuga clan he supports would be like this." "That's right, Uchi
. Back then, the Wave clan and the Senju clan were collectively known as the strongest clan in the ninja world. They were the real "rich families", while the Hyuga clan was just a "nouveau riche" at best." "A "nouveau riche" suddenly gained power
. After gaining status, it is understandable to have such a mentality."
"It's a pity."
"This is the border!"
"A border with a little bit of contradiction is equivalent to an undefended border!" "
So Minato-sensei, just wait a moment. Wait, let's see how I can successfully capture the border stationed by the Hyuga clan in front of me!"
Listening to Cross Country's words, the Fourth Hokage was shocked, but he was somewhat used to it.
His disciples can always do things beyond expectations.
Now, when faced with a country's border defense, Cross Country actually said that he could defeat the enemy without fighting. This directly made the Fourth Hokage silently sigh, Cross Country is indeed a miracle worker.
Immediately afterwards.
Controlling the spiritual energy in the Yin Escape Brand, Cross Country slowly closed his eyes and began to radiate his own spiritual energy. And at the moment when Cross Country was distributing his spiritual energy, almost when Cross Country's spiritual energy slowly enveloped the Fire Country border station, suddenly some of the other Konoha Village ninjas who had been oppressed by the Hyuga clan ninjas, In the middle of the night, he suddenly opened his eyes, stood up with ferocious eyes, and walked towards the camp where the Hyuga clan ninjas were!
On the other hand, cross-country.
After knowing that his secret technique was successfully cast, the corners of his eyes twitched fiercely.
Especially when he used Kagura's inner eye to sense and found that civil strife had begun in the border station of the Land of Fire, Cross Country sighed deeply and thought to himself: "If Shisui's other gods want to use it on a large scale, it will really happen.
" Yes."
"It's very difficult!"
