Chapter 147 Return to Mist Hidden

"If Sasuke doesn't come back, his defection will be confirmed. Regardless of whether he comes back later, it will be useless no matter what he says."

"Oh, I hope Sasuke can make the right choice this time, otherwise..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also took a deep breath of cigarette, and as the smoke surrounded him, Sarutobi Hiruzen also sighed.

It was not because Sarutobi Hiruzen said this because he wanted to forgive Sasuke. After all, Sasuke was not easy to talk about.

Speaking more seriously, it is now possible to directly issue a wanted order for Sasuke.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen's words defined this matter as that it was no longer his problem when Sasuke came back. What happened before was that the attack on Kirigakure Village was just a coincidence.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen has been in charge of Konoha for so many years and is very thirsty for power, his love for Konoha is not inferior to others.

In the past two years, he has been thinking about what he has done over the years. In his memories, when he was young, he was still very good, decisive, strong, efficient, and Konoha was very stable.

However, thinking about old age and the things he did in his old age, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only lament that he was really old and confused.

He wiped out the Uchiha clan, forced the head of the Hyuga clan to die, suppressed families that did not belong to the Hokage faction, and even caused the Hyuga clan to leave Konoha two years ago.

This incident also made Sarutobi Hiruzen begin to feel regretful, which is why Sarutobi Hiruzen was willing to give Sasuke a chance.

Not only because of Sasuke's high talent, but also because Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a trace of guilt in his heart and wanted to compensate Uchiha Sasuke.

Otherwise, given the wisdom of both of them, how could they not have guessed that this matter might have been Sasuke's betrayal of Konoha and private communication with Kirigakure Village? At least it was something Sasuke acquiesced to.

It's just that both of them tacitly defined Sasuke's behavior as Sasuke's own revenge, reducing Sasuke's crime many times.

Naruto looked at the hunched Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him, and instantly felt that at this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen was completely old.

This...perhaps this is the last time Sarutobi Hiruzen steps onto the battlefield.

Naruto also felt pity for the former Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

You must know that during the era when Sarutobi Hiruzen was in charge of Konoha, although Konoha was known as the number one ninja village, it was often attacked by other ninja villages. Even Konoha's rebellious ninjas and ignorant guys dared to attack Konoha. Ye attacks.

Even in the end, under the pressure of everyone in Konoha, he gave up the position of Hokage to Tsunade.

It can be said that Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Hokage, was very frustrated.

If you look at the first Hokage Senju Hashirama and the second Hokage Senju Tobirama, no one provokes them, or they get beaten up and lose their temper after being provoked.

Even when the Fourth Hokage was there, Konoha was very peaceful, and no other ninja village dared to offend Konoha.

Even other ninja villages have said, "If you encounter a yellow flash, you can give up the mission."

As for the third generation, although the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen is the longest-serving Hokage in Konoha, it cannot change that Konoha is the most aggrieved in his hands.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength is good, because he is old, he only thinks about peace and completely forgets that peace needs to be fought for by himself.

Thinking of this, Naruto couldn't help but sigh that he could only stand if he had the strength. At the same time, he said firmly in his heart, "I must be the strongest person."

"Sarutobi-sama, let's go back to Konoha now. Now that Kirigakure Village has retreated, it seems that this war is completely over."

Sarutobi Hiruzen blew out a smoke ring, nodded, and said to Naruto, "Okay, we can go back directly. Kirigakure Village will retreat, and Kumogakure Village will probably retreat as well. This time Konoha can be stable for a while." "

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know Jiraiya's information, but he just felt that once the Kirigakure Village was evacuated, it would be possible for the Kirigakure Village to face Konoha alone.

However, unlike what Sarutobi Hiruzen thought, Kumogakure did not retreat, but instead attacked Jiraiya's troops even more.

Jiraiya looked at the Raikage who was charging directly towards him, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but curse.

"Did the Raikage over there drink some medicine? That's so powerful!"

…

At the same time, in Kirigakure Village.

At the gate of Kirigakure Village, Ghost Lantern Full Moon led the troops back to Kirigakure Village.

At the gate of Kirigakure Village, there are many ordinary people from Kirigakure. At this time, Kirigakure Village does not implement the blood mist policy like before, so the situation inside Kirigakure Village has eased a lot.

The ordinary people standing around the gate at this moment welcome the return of the ghost lantern at the full moon.

Looking at the cheers of the crowd, Ghost Man Yue also showed a proud expression. Although he did not invade Konoha, he won Konoha in this war.

"Ah, it's Master Gui Deng Man Yue, he's so handsome!"

"Zabuza is the most handsome. If it weren't for Zabuza-sama, we wouldn't have everything going smoothly."

When someone said that Gui Lan was handsome over the full moon, someone immediately became unhappy and shouted to everyone.

However, this person's words were refuted the next moment.

"How could we have won without the leadership of Lord Ghost Man Yue."

"Nonsense. If Zabuza-sama hadn't led the assassination team, how would we have won this time?"

"In short, Lord Gui Deng Man Yue is the leader. This should be the credit of Lord Gui Deng Man Yue."

"fart……"

"Okay, don't argue. As long as Kirigakure Village is at peace, they will all be heroes."

Just when the two were about to quarrel, the person next to them interrupted them. To him, as long as the Hidden Mist Village was peaceful, all ninjas were heroes.

…

And Mangetsu Kizuki also heard the discussion of these people. After all, they were discussing loudly, and Mangetsu Kizuki could hear it even at the door.

He subconsciously looked in the direction of Zabuza, but he didn't expect that Zabuza was also looking at Mangetsu Kizuki at this time.

Seeing Mangetsu Kizuki looking over, Zabuza gave him a look that said "Look, my prestige is high."

Mangetsu Kizuki didn't say anything, and then the two looked at each other, and then they looked away.

But Mangetsu Kizuki was still thinking about what happened just now.

"It seems that we need to discuss with the Mizukage how to deal with Zabuza. Zabuza's prestige in the Hidden Mist Village is really high. Even with the suppression of the Mizukage, how can Zabuza's prestige still be so high? This cannot go on."

On the other side, after Zabuza retracted his gaze, his eyes became sharp for a moment, and then as if he thought of something, his eyes became cold again.

Zabuza looked at everyone indifferently, without the joyful expression of ordinary ninjas.

As Mangetsu and Zabuza entered the Hidden Mist Village, the two separated and headed towards their own goals.

Mangetsu's goal was the Mizukage Building, while Zabuza's goal was his own residence.

For some reason, the two did not mention the miserable figure who was trying to attack Konoha thousands of miles away.
