Chapter 391 Raikage: Ohnoki, Let's See How Long You Can Hold Out!
"I will ensure the safety of the border.
Sitting on the throne of Hokage for decades, the Third Hokage can still see the situation in the ninja world very clearly.
After all, all these years of being Hokage were not in vain. He could see at a glance that the Rock Village was on the verge of collapse.
The point of Tsunade looking for the Third Hokage was not to inform him of this information, but to hope that he could go to the border to prevent the Rock Village from suddenly attacking Konoha.
Some things must be prepared in advance, otherwise it will be too late to prepare after the enemy breaks in.
By then, even if Konoha drives the enemy out, it will pay a heavy price.
At this time, preparation is necessary. Defense is the best outcome.
Although the best defense is offense, Konoha cannot take the initiative to attack before the Rock Village declares war.
If you can't take the initiative to attack, you can only take precautions first, to prevent sneak attacks. It is enough to do this.
No matter what tricks the Rock Village wants to play, Konoha can respond at any time.
For example, Jiraiya went to the border to guard to prevent the war between the Mist Village and the Sand Village from affecting Konoha and dragging Konoha into the water.
Make arrangements in advance and deter the enemy from thinking about it, but they have to consider the consequences first.
"Then the recruitment of the ninja troops will depend on you, Shikaku."
This heavy task still fell on Nara Shikaku, but who made him the leader of the senior ninja class!
Since you have this position, you have to do your job well. These things can also be done by Yan and Tsunade, but they can't hold everything in their hands. They have to let go when they should.
"Don't worry, Lord Hokage, I will cooperate with Lord Sandaime to handle it. "
Shikaku bowed his head slightly and made a sincere promise.
Tsunade nodded and said nothing.
Yan reminded him:
"It's not about cooperating with the Sandaime-sama. This is your job. You don't need the Sandaime-sama to cooperate with you.
The Sandaime-sama's task is to lead the people you have selected to garrison at the border and guard against the Iwagakure. Everyone has their own tasks. Do you understand what I mean?"
Shikaku glanced at the Third Hokage and twitched his mouth: "I understand. "
He knew that Yan was trying to prevent the Third Hokage from doing something wrong, so he specifically selected some people he trusted, so he reminded him specifically.
Because this is not the Third Hokage's job, your task is to guard the border!
As for the rest, you don't need to worry about it.
How to select people and how to arrange them is other people's business, take care of yourself and don't get involved casually.
Once the Third Hokage intervenes in these matters, God knows what kind of trouble will arise.
With the Third Hokage's stubborn idea that those who are not from the Hokage system are not trustworthy, there will definitely be problems with the people he chooses.
For example, during the Third Shinobi World War, the middle-level commanders of the Konoha army were either Sarutobi or Shimura.
As long as the ninjas of the various families in Konoha cannot get the trust of the Hokage or other senior officials, you don't even have the slightest command power, and can only let others jump over your head and make decisions.
Yan naturally would not allow this to happen again, so the Third Hokage could not Interfere in these matters.
Compared to Shikaku, the Third Hokage, who had already prepared himself mentally, did not react at all.
Because he knew that Yan would not allow him to interfere in these matters.
As for stuffing people in, it was even more impossible. At most, when he arrived at the front line and was in charge of one side, he would select some trustworthy people to become mid-level commanders.
This was the maximum limit he could control.
Nara Shikaku did not live up to his position as the leader of the upper ninja squad. In just two days, he had completed all the preparations. The Third Hokage took the reinforcements and went directly to the front line.
Konoha recruited a lot of ninjas, and under the leadership of the Third Hokage, they left the village and headed towards the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain.
This kind of thing could not be hidden from the eyes of spies, and Yan and Tsunade did not intend to hide it.
Tell others honestly that we, Konoha, are fully prepared, and those who have small ideas should stop staring at us.
Otherwise you will hit this sharp nail.
"Are we really going to fight? "
First, Jiraiya took away a group of ninjas. Not long after that, the Third Hokage took away another group. The villagers of Konoha began to get nervous.
Fortunately, the Hokage Office Building issued an announcement in time.
Konoha recruited ninja troops, not to fight, but to go to the border to garrison and prevent the village from being involved in the war. This is just a precaution to prevent possible dangers, not to actively participate in the war.
After reading this announcement, the villagers' hearts fell back.
For them, as long as Konoha does not take the initiative to start a war, everything will be fine.
What's wrong with mobilizing a group of ninjas for defense?
This is a good thing, in order to prevent some enemies with ulterior motives from attacking Konoha and plundering the resources of the Land of Fire.
"It seems that Konoha has also realized that they should pay more attention to the Rock Village than the Sand Village and the Mist Village."
After looking at the information in his hand, Ai couldn't help laughing, raised his head and looked in the direction of the Rock Village, and said with emotion:
"Ohnoki, Ohnoki, how long can you endure it? "
"Lord Raikage, will the Iwagakure declare war on Konoha and wage war on Konoha?"
Ma Buyi was a little confused. Ai's tone was too decisive, and Konoha's actions were even more real.
Even if there was no sign of trouble, they sent people to guard the border. They just told everyone by name that we were guarding against the Iwagakure who might be desperate.
"You are still too young."
Ma Buyi's trusted secretary of the Raikage is very capable, but lacks experience.
Ai threw the intelligence scroll on the table and smiled coldly:
"Who knows, but affected by the war between the Mist Village and the Sand Village, the Rock Village will not last long. My father said a long time ago that the Rock Village could not withstand turmoil.
He has also been warning me not to let the village become the second Rock Village."
"Damn it!!!"
Thinking of this, Ai thought of the death of the Third Raikage, and suddenly a wave of anger rose from his heart.
He has a bad temper, but he is very obedient and listens to the Third Raikage.
If it weren't for the Third Raikage's education, I'm afraid that when the Third Raikage died, the Rock Village and the Cloud Village would have directly broken out into war.
Ai was very sad and upset, but he controlled his emotions and anger.
Lord Raikage, I think of the Third Hokage.
Ma Buyi stood aside in silence.
"Humph, they will have a hard time sooner or later."
After cursing, Ai frowned and thought.
The fight between Sand Village and Mist Village became more and more intense. Konoha began to guard against Rock Village to prevent the village from exploding and attacking the Land of Fire.
With Konoha on guard, Ohnoki had to think twice before attacking the Land of Fire, but the landmines inside the village would explode sooner or later.
As long as Ohnoki didn't want to see the landmine explode, war was inevitable.
