Chapter 2433 New News

"That...the Third Hokage...what do you say, Chiba-sama?"

At this time, on the other side, in the Hokage's office, the half-kneeling ANBU ninja pursed his lips slightly. After hesitating for a moment, he seemed to finally make up his mind. He raised his head, looked at the Hokage's desk in front of him, and pressed He said impatiently.

"Um……"

In response to this, behind the Hokage's desk, the Third Hokage pondered for a moment, put down the letter in his hand, and fell silent.

"Third generation sir..."

Looking at the appearance of the Third Hokage, the ANBU ninja was slightly startled, but the words in his mouth were not uttered after all.

Just now, Chiba-sama, who has returned to the village but has not been seen by anyone, once again sent a message about some matters delayed for one month. As a liaison ninja, the village side and Chiba-sama side He was very familiar with the situation and knew that this was extremely critical information, so he passed the information to the Third Hokage as soon as possible, which led to the current situation.

And because I know so much, I can't hold myself back at this time.

After all, the village already needs to delay the official exam for a month to detect the forces that are unfavorable to the village. In a sense, it is already saying that the village is at its wits' end. The only option is to use a one-month delay, a strategy that will obviously increase the burden on the village.

At this moment, increasing the burden on the village is tantamount to gambling, betting that the enemy will reveal a flaw first. If the enemy does not reveal a flaw, the overloaded village will give the enemy more opportunities.

In fact, the losses that would have been caused will increase exponentially, and may even overwhelm the entire village.

And using this gambling strategy has shown that the village is somewhat helpless against this power.

The village has no effective method and can only try this.

More importantly, this plan was proposed by Chiba-sama, the patron saint of Konoha and the unparalleled wise man in the ninja world. Even Chiba-sama could only propose such a gambling plan, so, It can only explain one thing.

Although everything is calm on the surface and everything is not that bad, in fact the village has been forced into some kind of desperate situation.

After all, Master Chiba’s plans are always the safest and he never takes risks!

If it wasn't a desperate situation, how could there be such a desperate plan?

If he didn't know anything, he wouldn't ask.

However, at this time, as a person who can be selected as a liaison ninja, how could he not ask anything?

Knowing so much, he has almost touched the core of the village's crisis. Even if this is absolutely impossible to ask, and even if he asks, he may lose his identity as a liaison ninja, he still can't hold back. Live to know.

Want peace of mind.

"It seems that things are not that simple."

However, although he did not ask any more questions, the Third Hokage did not seem to intend to hide it, and directly picked up the letter and handed it to him.

"Is this... okay?"

But looking at the Third Hokage who handed it to him, obviously letting him see it by himself, the ANBU ninja couldn't believe it.

"It doesn't matter,

It's not something too important. "

In response, the Third Hokage shook his head and said.

"yes!"

And hearing this, the ANBU ninja also knew that this was something that he, the liaison ninja, could know. He no longer hesitated at the moment, straightened up, leaned down and took the letter with both hands.

"Let's see."

In this regard, he looked at the ANBU ninja in front of him and opened the letter carefully, and said softly.

Chiba had known this for a long time and asked me to delay it for a month?

What does he mean?

Over the years, how many things has he kept hidden from us while he was out there?

At the same time, such a thought flashed through the mind of the Third Hokage.

And this idea is not to doubt Chiba. For Chiba, the child he watched grow up, although he had entered the dark world in order to contain Uchiha Nobuhiko when he was still young, the Third Hokage is still Don't doubt this kid.

After losing everything during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, this child will indeed change. He may become colder, colder, or even take some small detours. However, the Third Hokage believes that this child will never be detrimental to Konoha. .

This is not only confidence in Chiba, but also confidence in everything Chiba has experienced. It is also confidence in the woman who has been leading Chiba who is no longer there and also lost everything when she was still young.

The disciples she taught would never harm Konoha.

On this point alone, the Third Hokage had no doubt.

"This... delaying it for one month will not... have a deterrent effect? ​​Will it not reveal the truth? This... this... this is impossible! This... this is Master Chiba's own plan, right? Why...village...village...how..."

And at this moment, the contact ninja who had read the letter couldn't help but screamed, and his words were full of panic.

"Do not worry."

In response, the third generation Hokage's mouth showed a slight smile, and he spoke in a soothing tone.

It seems that there is no anxiety because the one-month delay written on the letter may not be able to defeat the enemy or expose the enemy.

It seems that he has made relevant preparations.

"But, the Third Hokage-sama..."

In response, almost subconsciously, the contact ninja would refute.

"No! I'm sorry, I lost my temper!"

However, he immediately realized that his behavior was inappropriate, and immediately bowed his head to express his apology and respect.

"It's okay, I understand how you feel now."

In response, the Third Hokage shook his head and didn't pay much attention to it, he just said.

"Then, Lord Third Hokage, what should we do... now?"

After hearing this, the ANBU ninja who contacted the ANBU ninja did not feel any calmer because of the calm look of the Third Hokage. However, he was still calm after all, and did not show his uneasiness and panic at the moment, suppressing that feeling. Unnatural, he said.

"It doesn't matter. The news of a one-month delay has been sent out, so let's delay it for one month."

In this regard, the Third Hokage said this, obviously insisting on delaying it for one month. Even though Chiba has already stated that the maximum effect of delaying for one month may not be effective and will increase the load on Konoha, still It insists on delaying the start of the third trial for one month.

"But, the Third Hokage-sama..."

In response to this, the contact ANBU ninja couldn't help but speak again, but in his words, he planned to dissuade the Third Hokage.

Especially out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the column of "The news delayed for one month will be interpreted by each Ninja Village. As a result, whether the Ninja Village has no idea about Konoha or the Ninja Village has an idea, they will take more measures to do the same thing." Don't worry about it, try to restrain the ninjas on your side, especially the ninja village that is unfavorable to Konoha." After the message, there was even more eagerness on his face.

Lord Chiba has made it very clear that at this time, a month's delay is nothing more than futility.

It would be safer to start the third test early and end the Chuunin exams early.

"Didn't you notice? In fact, Chiba means that we should continue to delay it for another month."

However, the Third Hokage did not let him finish his words and spoke.

"continue?"

At this, the contact ANBU ninja was slightly stunned.

"Yes, first of all, everyone has been notified. If we take it back now and start the Chuunin exams as soon as possible, then the forces in the dark that are unfavorable to us will definitely think that we are guilty, and then the attack will only come earlier. Secondly. , if all the ninja villages stay peacefully in the village because they are afraid of our delay for a month, what will happen to us?"

Hearing this, the Third Hokage seemed to be in a good mood and did not feel any anxiety because of Chiba's information. He also explained patiently at this time.

"Stay peacefully in the village?"

In response to this, the contact ANBU ninja was startled again and murmured.

"This matter is not necessarily a bad thing. Destroy the information and stand down."

At this time, the Third Hokage smiled slightly, waved his hand, and signaled the ANBU ninja to leave.

"yes!"

Regarding the words of the Third Hokage, although he still had many doubts about the ANBU ninja, he did not forget his responsibilities and position after all. After hearing these words, he responded and disappeared in a flash. land.

All I can say is that it is indeed Chiba...

The matter of postponing it for a month is not as simple as it seems.

But watching the contact ANBU ninja leave, the Third Hokage relaxed and leaned back, and at the same time, he blew out a puff of smoke from his mouth.

It is impossible to take back the delay of one month. The reason is very simple, just like what the liaison ninja said.

First, in the current situation, if Konoha suffers a sudden attack, and those forces that are unfavorable to Konoha are still not exposed after a month's delay, it means that this has been planned for a long time, and if they do not launch an attack, If an attack is launched, Konoha will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Even if it does not endanger its foundation, its vitality will definitely be severely damaged, and the pace of recovery will inevitably stagnate or regress. If Konoha declines, it will inevitably become the trigger for the Ninja World War. The other four major ninja villages will definitely take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, we cannot take it back now and let the enemy feel his guilty conscience.

Second, it is actually a great good thing that everyone is safe and sound. At least in the next month, Konoha can calmly consider this matter and carry out a series of targeted measures. sexual arrangement.

Yes, this delay of one month can at least buy Konoha a month of calm time, which can already do a lot of things.

Moreover, in conjunction with Konoha's current efforts to improve the treatment of Kusugakure Village, if done properly, it may have miraculous effects.

For example, the plan adopted by Haneda Kazuha was a perfect success and after annihilating many elite troops of the Great Ninja Village, it could also have a shocking effect and even make other forces and even enemies in the dark think that all this was a trap set up by Konoha for this purpose. Attract existences that are harmful to Konoha and then annihilate them.

At that time, no matter how appropriately it was announced that Chiba was still alive, no matter whether he was an enemy or not, everyone would definitely give up.

In this way, Konoha's crisis can be considered resolved.

It is undeniable that Chiba probably had this in mind when he originally asked for a one-month delay.

After all, Chiba's strategy is always the safest.

instead of...

The most adventurous.

"Oh! I almost forgot, I need to send out the proposal to agree with Kusayak Village."

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage's eyes flashed, and he seemed to suddenly think of something, and said softly.

"Duh!"

Then, the Hokage's seal hit another open document.

"Although I don't know who you are yet, should I give you this scroll that agrees with the proposal of Kusakuin Village?"

Then, after the seal was struck, the Third Hokage took another deep breath of cigarette and exhaled it with a sigh.

Then, his eyes fell on the window of the Hokage's office.

"Wow..."

And at this moment, at the stall where the Third Hokage's eyes were fixed, a black figure jumped on the window sill amidst the sound of the wind. The black robe slowly fell, slowly revealing what was under the hood. , fair and handsome face.

But he is a handsome young man with majestic eyes.

"As expected of the Third Hokage."

At this time, as the hood slowly fell back, the young man with long hair flowing out slowly raised his head and said with a look of surprise in his eyes.

The words were full of emotion.

"I already noticed you when you entered the barrier. It's not that I discovered you now, but that you were discovered a long time ago."

In response, the Third Hokage turned his eyes, but seemed not to care about this uninvited guest. He slowly rolled up the document and spoke lightly.

Black robe and silver moon...

Clothes that have never been seen before, and the Haneda clan, can they be considered new?

At the same time, such a thought flashed through his mind.

"Really... It seems that Konoha's barrier still has the ability to distinguish between good and evil."

In response, this handsome and handsome young man gently stepped down from the window sill with a click. His long golden hair fell down, but there was a hint of fear in his phoenix eyes.

Obviously, this young man was very afraid of the old man in front of him who seemed to be half-buried.

Although he tried his best to show kindness, he still couldn't hide his fear.

"Hahaha!"

In response, the Third Hokage suddenly laughed, gently handed over the rolled document in his hand, and said, "Can I give it to you?"

"Oh... the barrier naturally cannot distinguish between good and evil, but people can tell the difference. He came openly and openly, and he came directly towards the Hokage Building without even hiding his figure. This shows that, You mean no harm."

Later, he added.
