Chapter 430 Baptism of War (Part 1)

"Lord Kazekage, what do you mean?" On the platform, despite the kunai on his neck, the Third Hokage looked very calm.

"Didn't you see it?" The Fourth Kazekage, standing behind the Third Hokage, glanced at the chaos around him and sneered.

As the Fourth Kazekage said this, he took the Third Hokage from the platform to the roof. The view here was much better than on the platform. Not only could you overlook the entire arena, but you could also see other places in Konoha.

"Lord Hokage." Seeing the Hokage being held hostage, the Anbu guarding on the side rushed up immediately, but at this moment, four ninjas dressed as Anbu rushed out from the four corners of the platform, but their goal was not to save the Hokage, but to save the six Anbu who wanted to save the Hokage.

"Ninja Spider Nest Open." One of the Anbu quickly formed seals with both hands, and then opened his mouth and continuously spit out a huge spider web. The spider web blocked all directions in front, leaving Konoha's Anbu with no room to dodge and could only face it head-on.

The Anbu who rushed to the front immediately waved the kunai in his right hand with a trace of chakra. With several flashes of cold light, the huge spider web was directly cut into pieces.

However, although the Anbu of Konoha reacted quickly, the delay was enough. At this time, the four Anbu revealed their disguised identities. It turned out to be the Four Sound Ninjas.

Because the Anbu of Konoha wore masks, except for a few people such as the Hokage who knew their true identities, others did not know how many people there were in the Anbu. Therefore, except for some people who dressed up as ordinary people, the others of the Sound Ninjas were all dressed up as Anbu.

The four Sound Ninjas occupied the four corners of the roof respectively, and quickly formed seals in their hands, and instantly unfolded a rectangular barrier covering the entire roof, the Four Purple Flame Array.

The purple barrier was covered with a strange purple flame barrier.

An Anbu who was eager to save the Third Hokage, after touching the barrier, his whole body immediately burst into purple flames, and his body stopped struggling after just a moment.

"It's a barrier, don't get close." The leading Anbu said as he shot the kunai in his hand at the barrier of the four purple flame formation. Instantly, purple flames ignited on the kunai and then melted.

"Go and find the barrier team immediately." The death of the previous Anbu and the melting of the kunai immediately made the Anbu leader realize that it was very difficult to destroy the barrier from the outside, so he immediately ordered the Anbu on one side to bring the barrier team of Konoha.

The Anbu who can become the Hokage's guards are naturally not ordinary people. Although their strength is not as good as elite ninjas such as Kakashi and Asuma, they are much stronger than ordinary jonins.

The reputation of Konoha's Anbu in the ninja world is not blown, but earned by fighting.

"It's spectacular here." On the roof, the kunai of the fourth generation Kazekage was still on the neck of the third generation Hokage, indicating that he looked at the chaos in the arena at this time.

The Nirvana Jingshe technique of Kabuto Yakushi is only effective for ordinary people and people at the level of Genin. The leaders and wealthy people from various countries did not fall into a deep sleep, but fled quickly outside under the leadership of the guards. The fastest one was the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, who disappeared at the first moment under the leadership of the six guardian 12 ninjas.

For these people, this sudden turmoil was obviously aimed at Konoha. Of course, they did not need to fight for Konoha, and they even wanted to watch the excitement on the side.

I am afraid that even the Daimyo of the Land of Fire thought so.

The Otonin in the arena did not stop these people from escaping. Orochimaru's target was Konoha, or to be more precise, the Third Hokage. These people on the other side were undoubtedly a distraction.

"Mr. Kazekage, do you want to start a war? It's not too late to stop now. We can discuss anything." Looking at the many flares rising in the distance, the Third Hokage's expression instantly became solemn. Those flares represented the meaning of a large-scale enemy invasion.

Konoha did receive information that something unexpected would happen during the Chunin Exam, but after some discussion, the top leaders of Konoha believed that at most it would be a surprise attack by a small group of elite enemies who wanted to disrupt Konoha's joint Chunin Exam, which was held every five years. They did not consider the situation of war at all.

But those flares showed one thing: the war had begun.

"At this time, you are still persuading the other party to stop. Teacher, you haven't changed." The voice of the Fourth Kazekage suddenly became familiar and unfamiliar, which made the pupils of the Third Hokage shrink. Although he had not heard this voice for more than ten years, it was still very familiar.

The next moment, the figure of the Third Hokage immediately disappeared from Orochimaru. When he appeared again, he was already standing three meters away from Orochimaru, staring at Orochimaru with his eyes.

"Who are you?" Although the voice was very familiar, the Third Hokage still wanted to confirm it.

"After not seeing you for so long, have you forgotten me, teacher?" The Fourth Kazekage said as he threw the Kazekage hat on his head aside, revealing his true face, Orochimaru.

"Long time no see, Sarutobi-sensei." Orochimaru said this in an unusually nostalgic tone.

"How could it be him?" The Anbu outside the barrier couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice after seeing Orochimaru. As the Anbu directly under the Hokage, he naturally knew who Orochimaru was.

At this time, not only the ANBU leader was exclaiming, but also the Sand Ninja Jounin Maki who was staying with the Sound Ninjas in the arena. The Fourth Kazekage suddenly turned into Orochimaru, and the Fourth Kazekage was added. It hasn't appeared yet, which gave Marki a very bad feeling.

Maki's status in Suna Ninja Village is similar to Nara Shikaku's position in Konoha. Although he is not as good as Nara Shikaku, he is already considered a leader in Suna Ninja Village, and he made a decision in an instant.

The Fourth Kazekage did not appear, and did not tell him that the plan had changed. This kind of accident was very unusual, so Maki immediately gave up the so-called Konoha collapse plan and quietly approached Gaara and Temari. Kankuro's side ordered them to return to the Suna Ninja Village immediately.

Although Gaara was a little unwilling, under Maki's strict order, he finally left with Temari and Maki.

The original plan for the collapse of Konoha was to include the Sound Ninja Village and the Suna Ninja Village outside. Both sides should cooperate internally and externally. In addition, Gaara was allowed to completely liberate the One-Tailed Shukaku and use the power of the tailed beast to destroy Konoha.

As a tailed beast, what he is best at is destroying large areas. At the same time, Rasa can also use Shukaku's sand to turn Konoha into a terrain that is favorable to him. I have to say that the plan is indeed very good, but it is a pity that it was stillborn.

"Kakashi, is it him?" On the audience stage, Kai immediately asked Kakashi who was back to back with him after kicking away a sound ninja.

"It's not wrong. I didn't expect that Suna Ninja Village and Sound Ninja Village would join forces. Fortunately, something seems to have changed between them." Kakashi has always been aware of the situation in the entire audience, and the Fourth Kazekage became The disappearance of Orochimaru, Maki, Gaara and others made him immediately have suspicions.

"It's been a long time since we fought side by side like this."

"Be careful, your injury is not fully healed yet."

"Don't worry, youth will not be affected by this injury, Kakashi, let's see who kills the most enemies this time." Kai said, excitedly rushed towards the sound ninja on the side, and kicked one away , and then punched another one away.

Boom boom boom.

When the battle here in the arena started, the battle around Konoha also started. Dozens of huge three-headed snakes began to attack the walls of Konoha. Although Konoha tried its best to resist, they faced the threat of the Sand Ninja Village. Having been prepared for a long time, Konoha's side could only retreat steadily.

Years of peaceful life have made it inevitable for Konoha to be on guard.

"Rooftop Collapse Technique." But then the battle situation in the east was eased. With a loud roar from the sky, a huge figure fell from the sky and wreaked havoc on the ground. Facing Konoha's kunai, his hand The three-headed serpent, which was unscathed by the sword and even the detonating talisman, was crushed into a pulp.

The person who came was naturally one of Konoha's Sannin, the lustful sage, no, the toad sage Jiraiya. Today was still his usual time to collect information, and he happened to be in the east, so he caught up as soon as possible.

"Please, Toadada, the Fire Release Great Flame Bullet Technique." After killing a three-headed giant snake, Jiraiya and the toad under him immediately separated and rushed in two directions.

Jiraiya jumped up from the toad's back and immediately used a powerful fire escape ninjutsu. A huge fire ball burning with blazing high temperature directly turned the other three-headed giant snake in front of him into roasted snake meat. However, it was obvious that the temperature of the flame was too high and some of it was burnt.

"Otama Rasengan." After the fire roasted the three-headed giant snake, Jiraiya jumped up again, and a huge Rasengan appeared in his right hand, appearing above the third three-headed giant snake. One blow directly drove the head of the three-headed giant snake deep into the ground. As the Rasengan disappeared, the large cracked pit on the ground was a mess of blood and flesh.

At this time, Toadada also used the two huge long knives he carried behind his back to kill the last three-headed giant snake.

"Jiraiya-sama." Jiraiya's appearance and the instantaneous elimination of four raging three-headed serpents greatly increased the morale of Konoha, but on the contrary, the morale of the Suna Ninja dropped drastically.

"Orochimaru, old man." After dealing with the three-headed giant snake, Jiraiya did not take action. Instead, he jumped on Gao Tadashi and looked at the purple barrier above the arena in the distance. As one of the three ninjas, He naturally knew what it was, but he had no way to escape at this moment.

"When will there be true peace?" Although he didn't want to kill in his heart, in the face of the Suna ninja attacking Konoha, Jiraiya had no choice but to take action.

"This is war, how does it feel?" In the other direction of the arena, Shen Fei took Sasuke and looked at the battle in the arena on the left, as well as the mass escape of Konoha residents on the right, and the many three-headed giant snakes raging in the distance. , asked Sasuke softly beside him.

After Orochimaru launched the attack, Sasuke summoned a shadow clone and left with Xianglan. He himself took Sasuke with him and watched the results of the war.

Seeing Sasuke silently looking at the terrified Konoha residents fleeing in all directions, he then continued, "In fact, Itachi's choice back then was not unreasonable. Once a war breaks out, no matter who the final winner is, he will be harmed." It’s these civilians.”

"So he slaughtered the entire clan, including his parents." Sasuke's voice was very cold. Although the war situation in front of him made him feel a lot, when it came to the annihilation of a clan, especially the death of his parents, Sasuke The anger immediately surged up again.

"The civilians of Konoha are very pitiful now, but did you know that in the three great wars of the ninja world, the most pitiful people were actually the civilians of the Rain Ninja Village."

Due to the geographical location, the Rain Village was greatly affected in the three Ninja World Wars. In the third Ninja World War, it became the main site of the war.

"Itachi's so-called peace only saw Konoha. The top leaders of the five major ninja villages also saw their own villages. They don't know what real peace is." Shen Fei sighed softly when he said this.

There is a saying that it is better to be a dog in peace than a person in troubled times. This shows how terrible troubled times are. However, even if Shen Fei has such power, he can only change the fate of some people. It is not impossible to change the whole world, but it is too troublesome.

For Sasuke's education, Shen Fei did not brainwash him like Orochimaru, but really gave him a lot of things. This war was a baptism for the twelve little strong men of Konoha, and the same was true for Sasuke. This is also the main reason why he brought Sasuke to Konoha.

It is completely different to understand war only through books and materials without experiencing war in person and being in a real war environment.

"Konoha's reaction mechanism is quite good. It regained its composure so quickly."

Konoha is the leader of the five major ninja villages, and it is not in vain. Except for the initial panic caused by the sudden attack, Konoha soon began to take refuge and counterattack in an orderly manner. The Anbu and ninjas from major ninja families began to gather.

"Let's go and see the Third Hokage." No matter what the Third Hokage is like, it is certain that he played a large part in the extermination of the Uchiha clan. Sasuke certainly wants to witness his death in person.

"Sasuke." Shen Fei and Sasuke just appeared in the arena and met Kakashi, Kai and others. At this time, they had already dealt with the Otonin in the arena.

"Where did this guy Kabuto Yakushi go? He just ignored this place." Looking around and not finding Kabuto Yakushi's whereabouts, Shen Fei was a little speechless.

Kakashi and Kai were able to deal with the Oto-ninjas in the arena so quickly, in large part because Kabuto Yakushi, who was supposed to be in charge here, did not show up, and also took away some of the real Jonin-level ninjas from the Oto-ninja Village.

"Hey, Kakashi, long time no see." Sasuke faced Kakashi with a very calm look, but after seeing the Third Hokage in the Four Purple Flame Formation, his expression immediately changed.

"What are you doing here? You are also involved in this attack on Konoha." Kakashi looked at Sasuke with a very tangled expression. He did not expect to see Sasuke here at all.

"What are you doing here? What do you think? Someone must be responsible for the blood debt of the Uchiha clan. The blood debt must be paid with blood. Today is just the beginning."

"Don't act casually." When he said this, the Anbu on the side was ready to attack Shen Fei and Sasuke, but was immediately stopped by Kakashi.

Sasuke's strength is nothing, but Kakashi has personally experienced Shen Fei's strength. Even if he and Kai are here, and there are several close-range Anbu of the Third Hokage, they may not be Shen Fei's opponents.

"Okay, why bother talking to them." Shen Fei glanced at Kakashi and others, then grabbed Sasuke's shoulders, and the expressions of the two instantly disappeared in front of Kakashi and others. Instead, a broken tile in the barrier replaced the original place, and the two appeared inside the barrier.

"This is time-space ninjutsu."
