N-A-A Chapter 352 Konoha is Short of People
Chapter 352 Konoha is Short of People
Konoha Village.
Just as the major clans were packing their things and preparing to leave Konoha...
Chiyo, however, left the village with Orochimaru.
We arrived at the back mountain of the village.
This was originally the only way to get to the Hokage Rock, but later a staircase was built under the Hokage Rock.
The roads here have been abandoned.
However, Chiyo and Orochimaru's target is not here.
Instead, they continued deeper into the forest.
The forest is dense with tall trees and lush vegetation.
Qianyao also came here based on his memories.
We still need to find the exact location.
After a long time, they finally saw a dilapidated building in a dense forest.
The building resembles a small temple, but it has collapsed and is in a very dilapidated state.
Above is a huge vortex clan symbol.
This is the Namen Hall of the Uzumaki clan.
I don't know how long it's been since anyone came here. The pillars in the Namian Hall are all cracked and hollow, and half of the side has collapsed.
The roof was riddled with holes, and on the front wall hung three rows of masks.
There are twenty-seven in total.
Orochimaru looked at the masks on the wall with great interest:
"Your eye technique is really useful; it allows you to directly determine the method to undo the Reaper Death Seal."
Qianyao not only removed the mask of the Grim Reaper, but also removed all the other masks.
He is very skilled in sealing techniques.
It is natural to sense that the other masks are also magical artifacts containing power.
Of course, Qianyao cannot be let go.
At the same time, he replied, "This was originally your idea."
"Anyway, doing business with this Grim Reaper is a losing proposition."
"By using reincarnation, you gave a snakeskin to the Grim Reaper and in return, you brought back the souls of the first, second, third, and fourth generations."
"Hehehehe..." Orochimaru laughed smugly.
As a scientist, his favorite thing to do is to find loopholes in rules and regulations.
He wasn't even sure what this Grim Reaper was.
Of course, it's impossible for me to let myself suffer a loss.
"I haven't made my current vessel yet, so I can't reincarnate now."
Orochimaru said with a half-smile.
Qian Yao rolled his eyes: "Stop it. Since you're coming here with me, you must have come up with a plan."
Orochimaru chuckled silently. He rarely made jokes, but he didn't expect Chiyo to fall for it.
"Let's go, go back."
……
Konoha Village.
Nara family.
Since the Hokage Building was burned down, Nara Shikaga and Akimichi Torifu have been basically in charge of coordinating things in Konoha.
Unlike Qianyao, who was a hands-off manager, these two were as busy as spinning tops.
But for the Nara family, this is not a bad thing.
If Hiruzen Sarutobi had been Hokage before, the Nara clan would have remained honorary elders no matter how much they accomplished.
Chiyo was different; he directly promised Nara Shikaga that after a certain period of time, Shikaga would become Hokage's assistant.
Nara Shikaga no longer felt backache or leg pain, and could approve five official documents in one go.
Qianyao was absent again today, but what he did was directly increase Konoha's trump cards.
I didn't tell Lu Heming, but I hinted at it.
"Elder Shikaga, the Hyuga clan has arrived."
"Let them in."
Because a large number of members of the Dark Division left, now the members of the Ino-Shika-Cho clan are basically all being used.
This is good for both the pig, deer, and butterfly.
Now that they have chosen the Uchiha side, they have no choice but to do everything they can to support the Uchiha.
Upon hearing that the Hyuga clan had arrived, Shikaga's brow relaxed.
He knew everything about the Hyuga clan; in terms of numbers, the Hyuga clan had lost about a quarter of its combat personnel.
However, a significant portion of their high-end combat capabilities were also lost.
However, the most useful feature of the Hyuga clan is the functional Byakugan, which is not really needed in terms of combat power now.
After all, even the Hyuga clan couldn't defeat the Tailed Beasts, and the main branch of the clan never went to the battlefield in the past.
So, the Hyuga clan only lost the forty or fifty members of the branch family.
Led by Hyuga Aoto, a group of skilled members of the Hyuga clan followed him in.
"Elder Shikaga, I am Hyuga Aoto, and I am temporarily assuming the position of Hyuga clan leader."
Shikaga glanced at Hyuga Aoto and nodded slightly.
Although Qingdou was a bit younger, Luhe didn't dare to underestimate the branch family members at all.
The division of the family was a coup d'état accomplished by stepping over the corpses of the main family.
"Although our Hyuga clan has suffered some calamities, we still hope to do our part for Konoha in its time of crisis."
Aoto said a few polite words: "These are all elite Jonin of our Hyuga clan."
"They are Ushio, Hideaki, Hitomi, and Tsukihiko..."
After introducing him, Qingdou added:
"The rest of our tribesmen who are on missions will all return to the village soon."
Shika nods in satisfaction and says, "Konoha is in dire need of manpower right now, and what it lacks most right now is reconnaissance personnel."
"It would be best if your Hyuga clan could do everything in your power to help Konoha."
"Right now, the movements of Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Sunagakure are all key targets for monitoring."
Without any hesitation, Shikaho opened the map and clicked on the various key routes of the Land of Fire.
"Here, here, here..."
“These places all need the power of your Hyuga clan’s Byakugan.”
"Of course, there's also Hiruzen Sarutobi's team, which your Hyuga clan needs to monitor."
Aoto and the others who came with him were the last remaining elites of the Hyuga clan.
They naturally understood how dangerous Konoha was this time.
"No problem, we will set up surveillance in these areas, and any discoveries will be reported back to the village immediately."
Lu He nodded slightly: "You just need to do your intelligence work."
"Intelligence is our priority; you don't need to worry about the combat aspect."
The Hyuga members looked at each other and then nodded.
……
The Sarutobi clan's territory.
Ryunosuke Sarutobi entered Hiruzen Sarutobi's room.
"Chief, the people are all ready."
Hiruzen Sarutobi was still wearing the Hokage robes and still holding that pipe.
"Are the other tribes ready? How many of their people will stay behind?"
He spoke slowly and deliberately, without any sign of embarrassment on his face.
Sarutobi Ryunosuke confirmed, "The combat personnel from the other races are also ready."
"Most of the clansmen chose to follow you, with less than half choosing to stay in Konoha."
"However, Kakashi and Tenzo have disappeared; they must have chosen the Uchiha side."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a drag of his cigarette: "It's a good thing I didn't entrust important matters to Kakashi before."
Has Shigaraki Tanuki reported any new progress?
Ryunosuke Sarutobi replied, "Shigaraki Tanuki reported that at least three thousand people are needed now."
After hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi took his pipe and went into the courtyard.
He turned his head to look into the distance, where his Fire Shadow Rock stood.
Qianyao and his team haven't had time to dismantle it yet.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was famous throughout the entire ninja world; even a ninja village could expel its own Kage.
It's absolutely hilarious.
Although being expelled was somewhat unexpected, Hiruzen Sarutobi had already planned to leave Konoha for a while; he was just in a bit of a mess now.
This is not the end; I will be back.
Hiruzen Sarutobi suppressed the surging thoughts in his heart:
"Let's go. Everyone, stay alert and be prepared for a possible surprise attack."
Yes.
