Chapter 219 Game of Thrones

The war situation was becoming more and more unfavorable for Konoha. The Hyuga ninjas themselves could not be deployed, and some people had to be assigned to monitor and guard them to avoid causing any trouble.

Now being attacked by the Kirigakure and Kumogakure coalition forces, they are very passive.

In addition, the opponent's Tailed Beast Jinchūriki can release the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, making the fight even more difficult for them.

As the tailed beast tama of the four Goju Yagura people continued to be fired, the defenses established by Konoha here were quickly destroyed, and the coalition forces of the two villages also took the opportunity to attack.

Without the defensive fortifications to rely on, coupled with the fact that the Hyuga ninjas did not come to join the battle, and their numbers were weak, the casualties of the Konoha ninja army continued to increase. If this continued, every one of them would be destroyed.

"Chirp!"

Suddenly a loud hawk's call sounded, and Jiraiya took the time to look at the ninja eagle that appeared in the sky and shouted loudly.

"retreat!"

The fight cannot continue, otherwise even if they are not defeated, the casualties will not be acceptable to them.

After receiving Jiraiya's order, everyone retreated while fighting and covered each other, working together in a tacit understanding.

Important materials have been collected at the camp and they quickly retreated to the second line of defense behind them. At the same time, they also used a large number of detonating charms to block the pursuit of the Kirigakure ninja army.

In this regard, the Cloud Ninja and the Mist Ninja did not continue to pursue. Before, they used all their strength to explode chakra. Although the combat power was very fierce, it also consumed a lot of energy.

Even if Tamura Hao's chakra can be recycled and reused, it is not infinite, and it is almost there until now.

The ninja troops quickly occupied Konoha's ruined camp, searching for anything of value while counting their losses.

“We had 421 killed and 1,675 wounded.

Killed 1,107 Konoha ninjas and harvested supplies..."

Sitting in the conference room that originally belonged to the Konoha camp, Tamura Hao and others listened to the report of the battle. Overall, the losses were not small, but the gains were not small.

After all, this is a war, and even though they have made many plans, they cannot win without loss.

Unless the detonating talisman is used to open the way like the raid on Caoyin Village, and there is an absolute strength gap, casualties are unavoidable.

Even in the team they brought, four people died in the battle and could not be treated, and everyone else was injured.

This is war!

But Gouji Yagura and others all smiled and were very satisfied with the result.

This is a good start to victory, and future wars will be much easier to fight.

News of the defeat on the front line quickly spread back to Konoha. Sarutobi Hiruzen was so angry that he almost vomited blood after seeing the battle report.

"Hinata!"

Crushing the tobacco pot made of fine wood, Sarutobi Hiruzen hated the Hyuga clan for causing all this.

He had an uneasy premonition when he learned that Hinata and Hizashi had defected, but he didn't expect that it would cause such a big loss.

"Hiruzhan, now is not the time to be angry. The Hyuga clan's problem is very serious and needs to be solved as soon as possible, otherwise the front there may completely collapse."

Mito Menyan persuaded, but he was also very annoyed in his heart, but more worried.

The defeat on the front line this time was due to the Hyuga clan's problems. The hundreds of Hyuga ninjas who are still on the front line have become a factor of instability. Not only are they unable to become a fighting force, but they also have to be monitored and guarded. Even if they are not careful, those people will rebel and become enemies. .

If that really happens, the battle line will inevitably collapse.

"Go tell Hyuga Hizashi that if they don't find a solution soon, I will go there and appoint a new Hyuga clan leader in the name of Hokage."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suppressed his anger. The Hyuga clan must give an explanation for this matter. Otherwise, a Hyuga clan leader will be established there to allow the branch family to become independent.

"I'll go talk to Hinata Hiashi."

The old man's aggressiveness made Mito Kadoyan stunned for a moment, and finally nodded and said he would make peace.

Now that we are in this situation, we must be more ruthless.

Now either the Hyuga clan can find a way to regain control of the ninjas of the branch family, or they can appoint a new clan leader in the past and recognize the independence of the branch family of Hyuga. Only in this way can the ninjas of the branch family of Hyuga be stabilized and continue to fight on the front.

Otherwise, without the Hyuga ninja, it would be very difficult to fight against the Kirigakure ninja in an environment like the eastern coastal area.

"There is also Aquan. Yunyin Village must have a deeper intention in taking Aquan away. Hiruzen, you must be prepared."

After moving to bed, Koharu talked about the arrested Shimura Izumi, whose identity was relatively special.

"I will write and let Danzo know."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also understood that Cloud Hidden Village was difficult to deal with, so Danzo could only take action in this regard, at least let him use the chess piece planted in Cloud Hidden Village to investigate.

"How about adding more manpower to the frontline support? It will improve morale somewhat."

Mito Monoyan suddenly suggested that the losses there this time were not small. The key is the impact of this defeat on morale, which must be improved as soon as possible, otherwise it will definitely affect the next battle.

"Deploy a thousand people from all over the village, escort a batch of supplies, and send all the detonating talismans that are still there. There is no room for loss on that front."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it and agreed. The front there must not collapse, otherwise the entire battle situation would collapse.

Although he still holds the trump card of the Evil Earth Reincarnation, now is not the time to use it.

The Senju Clan and the Four Ninja Villages must be further consumed in the war before they can be used to deliver a killing blow.

At the same time, the forbidden technique of Tsuchi Reincarnation is too taboo, not to mention that he still has the flesh and blood of many strong men from the four major ninja villages in his hands. Once summoned, it will definitely anger the four major ninja villages.

Although the flesh and blood of those strong men they have mastered are powerful, they are not enough to compete with the four major ninja villages, and they must not be used now.

The three discussed for a long time, and after the conclusion, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately wrote a letter and had someone send it to the Southwest Front and deliver it to Danzo Shimura.

"Hiruzen, you are becoming more and more incompetent."

After reading the letter, Shimura Danzo was quite disappointed.

He has seen the limit of the old man's ability, and now it doesn't look like much.

Sure enough, only I can lead Konoha to greatness again, even unify the ninja world and completely end the war.

As for the request in the old friend's letter, he did not intend to pay attention to it, even if his daughter was taken away.

The boy used psychic skills to send a letter before and told the reason.

Her daughter's mind was poisoned by Hiruzen and his son to a much deeper extent than she imagined, and she even went so far as to cut her breasts, mutilate herself, or even commit suicide.

It was precisely because he couldn't control it that the boy carried Xiao Quan away.

That's fine. With Xiaoquan's identity, there is a high probability that Yunyin Village will not kill him. In addition, the boy's support will not be a big problem.

The worst case scenario is that after the war is over, some price will be paid to redeem the person. Anyway, all he needs to do is keep Koizumi away from the old man's brainwashing.

"Your eyes are always so sharp."

Turning his head to look at the approaching shadow clone of Orochimaru, Danzo Shimura felt unhappy.

Just after receiving the letter from Hiruzen, this guy knew that this was still his base.

"Teacher is in a hurry again?"

Orochimaru's shadow clone chuckled, knowing that the teacher must have been anxious again, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to write a letter to Danzo Shimura.

Every time I write like this, I always ask for something, and this time it will definitely be the same.

"The rebellion of the Hyuga branch head will definitely have a wonderful follow-up. There should be a problem on the Eastern Front. I just don't know if that idiot Jiraiya is dead."

He had previously received information about the rebellion of the head of the Hyuga branch family, and he guessed at that time that it must be more than just that.

"We were attacked by the combined forces of Kirigakure and Kumogakure and suffered heavy losses. The first line of defense was destroyed by the Tailed Beasts. Now we have to retreat to the second line of defense."

Shimura Danzo said briefly, but he was very satisfied in his heart.

The defeat on that front would not only suppress Hinata, but also affect the reputation of Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato in the village.

These three people are all their own competitors. Even the youngest Namikaze Minato has shown Kage-level combat power at this moment. Even if he cooperates with the Flying Thunder God Technique, he can't do anything to the opponent.

Naturally, we have to find a way to eliminate such a powerful opponent.

"I heard that the teacher's son betrayed you?"

Orochimaru understood, and immediately talked about another thing.

"After all, he is Hiruzen's son."

Shimura Danzo's betrayal of Sarutobi Shinnosuke was not very surprising. He and Hiruzen were one in the past, and both parties had the same interests, so they were naturally one of their own.

But ever since Hiruzen took out the list of Hokage candidates, his position has changed, and that idiot Shinnosuke regards him as his enemy.

"There should be some ambition."

Orochimaru believes that Sarutobi Shinnosuke's transformation is not that simple, and there must be ambition in it.

Many people were staring at the Hokage position and wanted to sit on it. As the son of the Hokage, it was normal for the younger junior brother to have thoughts about this.

"What do you know?"

Shimura Danzo stared at Orochimaru closely and heard that the other party must know something.

"My snake went to see Shinnosuke. He has reached the Kage level, but his chakra is a bit cold and his temperament has also changed a lot. I feel a little scared when I look at him."

Telling a piece of information that was previously detected, the junior brother had changed a lot. Not only was he much more feminine, but he was also more ruthless and crazy. It was obvious that life was very difficult after being captured.

At that time, he was thinking that if his junior brother was from the Uchiha family, he might be able to turn on the kaleidoscope, and he didn't know what kind of inhuman experience he suffered to have such a big change.

"There is still some potential."

Danzo Shimura was slightly surprised and glanced at the eldest son of his old man.

"What are you doing during this time?"

During this period of time, I haven't seen the true form of Orochimaru. All I have seen is the shadow clone. I don't know what that guy is doing in hiding.

"I'm studying wood escape and sharingan."

He replied casually, "This is the truth. He has been researching and developing that body during this period, and it is making good progress."

In addition, he was studying Fugaku-kun. Whether it was his arm or the Nine-Tails sealed in his body, they were good research materials and he gained a lot.

"Has Fugaku Uchiha been in contact with you?"

Asked about another thing, he had not investigated any trace of Uchiha Fugaku during this period, and from the information given by that excellent subordinate, he knew that Uchiha Fugaku had escaped and Kumogakure had not caught him.

It happened that Orochimaru also appeared at that time. He suspected that the two parties had communicated, and even the arm might be related to Orochimaru.

Was it just a show for yourself?

"I was also surprised when I saw Fugaku-kun using the power of Tailed Beast and Wood Release, and then I made a deal with him."

Orochimaru did not hide anything and told about his contact with Uchiha Fugaku, but did not go into details.

"Uchiha people are all crazy, don't let them bite you back."

After giving a warning, Shimura Danzo didn't pay much attention to the matter.

Uchiha Fugaku was almost out. Not only were all the Uchiha elites wiped out, but his own kaleidoscope was also taken away. Even if he still had his wooden arm and Nanao, he couldn't make any waves.

"I sneaked into the Hidden Rock Village and got the cell tissue of the Second Tsuchikage, but failed to successfully perform the Impure World Reincarnation."

The shadow clone of Orochimaru gave a piece of information and turned away. He still had a lot of things to do and was very busy.

Fortunately, the southwest front was relatively calm, which gave him a lot of time for research.

"Second Tsuchikage, Mangekyō Sharingan, Amaterasu, Kagutsuchi-no-Mikoto, are you trying to fuse the Dust Release?"

Shimura Danzo had some guesses. At this stage, there are only a few people who master the Impure World Reincarnation, and it is easy to guess who is using it.

Connecting those things together, the key points hidden in it can also surface automatically.

"The Second Tsuchikage knows a lot of tricks, and Hiruzen must have improved a lot."

He was involuntarily more excited. He was originally quite disappointed with the old friend and thought he was not enough to be his opponent.

Who would have thought that the old friend was secretly planning to improve his strength. The Dust Release plus the Earth Release Ninjutsu of the Hidden Rock Village is worth paying attention to.

Sure enough, in this game of power, only Hiruzen is the opponent that he needs to pay the most attention to.

After thinking for a while, Shimura Danzo got up and went to the deepest part of the base.

That is the core area of ​​the root today, leading two studies.

"Danzo!"

Pharmacist Nono, who was watching the experimental data of the Phoenix, saw Shimura Danzo coming and hurriedly saluted.

"Hasn't the Wood Release transplantation been performed yet?"

Looking at the Phoenix, whose body has grown to be comparable to the tailed beast, Shimura Danzo was not very satisfied and did not sense the Wood Release Chakra in it.

"I was just about to report to Master Danzo. After research, I found that the lotus flower is more compatible with Wood Release, Sharingan, and Uzumaki cells, and it can even be said to be a perfect match.

The Phoenix is ​​more compatible with the power of the Hyuga Otsutsuki and Kaguya clans, and there seems to be a conflict between the two systems, so I suggest that the two be separated to carry a system.

Finally, two seals can be created on Master Danzo. The lotus flower is sealed to the abdomen, and the Phoenix flower is sealed to the vest, connected to the spine, which is also the bone that can best carry the power of the Corpse Bone Vein.

In addition, the black lotus flower has a higher carrying capacity for that kind of dark power, while the Phoenix flower is not as good, and the Phoenix flower has spiritual intelligence and is difficult to control..."

Pharmacist Nono told the findings and suggestions of the research. It is difficult to merge the two blood systems, at least not with the current technology, and it is best to separate them.

"Just do it this way and separate the two systems."

After staring at the Phoenix flower that was sleeping with drugs for a long time, Shimura Danzo agreed to this plan.

He learned a lot of ancient secrets from the memory of Otsutsuki Miyu, such as the Six Paths Sage and his brother Otsutsuki Hamura, as well as their mysterious mother.

Although there are few records about the mysterious woman in the other party's memory, it is enough to prove that the woman is powerful, even if the Six Paths Sage and Otsutsuki Hamura only inherited part of each other's power.

So the power of the two systems can be integrated, but the difficulty is too high.

The most original and ancient power is what he should pursue. That is the real sage, and it is even possible to achieve the state of immortality.

Thinking of this, Shimura Danzo continued to go down and came to the bottom, where the Paradise Box was sealed, and the lotus that was accidentally obtained was also planted here, absorbing the dark power in the Paradise Box.

The originally purple-red lotus has now turned pure black, all of which are changes caused by absorbing the dark power.

However, the lotus is a plant after all, and there is no spiritual intelligence, so even if it absorbs a lot of dark power, there is no possibility of rampage.

Shimura Danzo is most satisfied with this point, this is the best carrier that can perfectly carry the dark power.

"Are you also a remnant of the sacred tree?"

Looking at the increasingly huge black lotus, Shimura Danzo guessed its source.

According to Otsutsuki Miyu's memory, the source of the tailed beasts is the Ten Tails, and the Ten Tails can evolve into a sacred tree. The shape of this lotus is very similar to the sacred tree flower recorded in the ancient books of Otsutsuki.

And this lotus also has the power of wood escape, which can absorb the chakra of the outside world, and even the chakra of the tailed beasts.

At that time, he guessed that this lotus might be the remnant of the sacred tree in ancient times, just like the world fairy tree in the Hidden Cloud Village.

This is more valuable for cultivation.

"It's not enough. If you can get the Outer Path Demon Statue and then catch the nine tailed beasts and devour them, you can definitely grow into the second sacred tree, become the second Six Paths Sage, or even the mother of the Six Paths Sage."

With infinite greed in his heart, Shimura Danzo is more and more eager for the ultimate power.

Only by possessing the ultimate power can you realize everything you want and control the whole world in your hands.

"The foundation for becoming an immortal is already there, now all that's left is the transformation of the body."

Looking down at his body, Shimura Danzo realized that his body could not bear that ultimate power at all, and he had to gather the blood of Otsutsuki Hamura and the Six Paths Sage, and finally use the power of the sacred tree to merge the two blood systems into one.

Thinking of this, he turned around and left, and came to a ward, where a beautiful woman was lying, it was Otsutsuki Miyu who was caught last time.

At this moment, Otsutsuki Miyu was in a coma, controlled by drugs.

"What stage has it reached?"

Shimura Danzo asked the kunoichi who was taking care of him here. He needed to use this woman to breed a perfect Otsutsuki bloodline. The other half of the bloodline had already been decided and came from an elite jounin from Hinata.

This is not only the cornerstone of his future fusion, but also an opportunity to explore the mystery of the reincarnation eye.

The Ōtsutsuki relic relies on capturing the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan to transform into the reincarnation eye. If the bloodlines of the Ōtsutsuki and Hyuga clans are fused, I wonder if a genius with the potential to awaken the reincarnation eye or even directly open the reincarnation eye can be cultivated.

In addition, he also arranged for the bloodline genes of the original Kaguya clan leader.

"The two embryos have taken initial shape and are adjusting to her physical condition. They will be ready for implantation and pregnancy later.

Just staying in a coma is not conducive to the growth and development of the fetus. "

The kunoichi doctor expressed her concern that it was too difficult for a woman to complete pregnancy and childbirth in a comatose state. If she was not careful, she would end up killing two people.

"Special nutrient solution will be sent to her later."

Shimura Danzo had been prepared for this for a long time. It was the result of research on the phoenix. The life force in its body was too strong and pure. They used the blood of the phoenix as the main body to prepare a special nutrient solution.

With that kind of nutritional supplement, it would definitely be fine for this woman to complete her pregnancy and childbirth.
