"Don't worry about grand scenes. There's still a powerful enemy ahead."
Takumi comforted him with a smile. "If you have any other concerns, uncle, feel free to speak out."
"Actually, it's like this."
The Director explained his concern, then looked at Takumi earnestly. "I wonder if Takumi-kun could spare some time to reshoot some shots?"
"No problem."
Takumi said with a smile. "Something like this is easy."
He would be glad to.
This way, he could spend more time with Koyuki.
After all, Koyuki was the female lead of Takumi's movie series, and she would naturally be the lead for this film as well.
As for Shion, she was just a key plot driver.
At least in the Director's eyes.
"It's not too late. Everyone can rest here for a while, and we can also film some transitional content."
Takumi said with a smile.
"That would be best, of course."
The Director smiled too.
Beside them, Koyuki naturally took Takumi's arm.
"Damn woman!"
Sakura gritted her teeth watching this scene, her eyes full of angry flames.
…
Night fell, and everyone camped by the river in the canyon to rest.
The cameraman took the opportunity to film some peaceful transitional footage.
Under the night sky, in an unknown place.
Yomi rested with his eyes closed.
As if sensing something, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Failed?"
There was no disappointment in his tone, just extremely calm.
As if failure was within his expectations.
"It seems I'll have to act first."
As Yomi's words fell, a large number of terracotta soldiers crawled out from the ground around him.
Since he couldn't stop the Miko's advance,
He would have to let nature take its course and wait for her at the destination.
This was also his most convenient opportunity to obtain his body.
At this time, on the front lines.
"Raikiri!"
Kakashi used his signature technique, eliminating a large number of terracotta soldiers in one go.
But he soon sensed something was wrong and stopped his attack.
Not only him, but others also stopped and gathered.
"They seem to be leaving?"
Guy looked puzzled. "Are they going home for dinner too?"
"Of course not."
Kakashi rolled his eyes. "But regardless, something must have changed."
"Tch."
Asuma pouted. He had just arrived at the front lines, and the battle was already over.
He had wanted to get a good fight in, and this was it?
"Let's report the situation to Hokage-sama first, and then he can decide our next move."
Kakashi said, and the other Shinobi agreed.
So, Kakashi summoned a Ninken, placed the scroll with the intelligence into its mouth, and said, "Go, Pakkun. Take this to Hokage-sama."
"Got it, leave it to me." Pakkun the Ninken agreed and then rushed off.
"Let's rest for now, and take turns keeping watch."
Kakashi said to the others.
In fact,
If Hiruzen were to abdicate now, besides Tsunade, the most suitable person for the Hokage's position would be Kakashi.
As for Takumi, he was still too young. Even with powerful strength and the villagers' love, it would be hard to get the recognition of the many Jonin to become Hokage.
After all, the Hokage was decided by a vote of all Jonin.
Unless the current Hokage recommended him.
But knowing Takumi's understanding of Hiruzen, he would never recommend him.
Last time, he had recommended the Fourth Hokage, Minato, who died within two years.
Having regained power, Hiruzen would absolutely not give up the position until he found someone he could completely control.
To some extent, Hiruzen had greatly hindered Konoha's development and could be considered a major factor in the village's gradual decline.
His weakness, hesitation, and desire not to offend anyone had made Konoha increasingly wither.
And Danzo's behind-the-scenes maneuvers were like pushing Konoha towards the abyss.
Imagine,
Without Takumi, without Naruto and Sasuke, how could Konoha's power possibly face Obito and Nagato?
Obito's darkness was Black Zetsu's scheme.
And Nagato's darkness had Danzo's hand in it.
Danzo bore a huge responsibility for Yahiko's death.
Although the one who actually killed Yahiko was Hanzo, who set the trap, the chief culprit was still Danzo.
Without Naruto, Nagato alone would have been enough to destroy all of Konoha.
In fact, if Naruto hadn't used his unique "Talk no Jutsu" to persuade Nagato at the end, Konoha would have long been erased.
And now, with Takumi added to the mix, Konoha would only become stronger.
But when the time was right, Takumi would definitely ask these old guys to step down.
Relying on their seniority, they had stayed in those positions for too long.
With their rotten and obsolete views and thinking, they hindered Konoha's development.
They could be considered the biggest cancerous tumors on Konoha.
Takumi had long made up his mind.
After he became Hokage,
The first thing would be to abolish the Root, and have the two advisors go home and retire.
The existence of Root was a waste of Konoha's elite. Danzo unconstrainedly plundered geniuses from various Shinobi Clans in the village to join Root.
If they didn't join, they were considered disloyal to Konoha and then suppressed. This method was just too dirty.
This kind of behavior would only make people in the village feel even less identification with it.
Danzo thought everything he did was for the good of the village.
But he never considered that it was his actions that led to a series of unnecessary consequences.
Kakashi and the others didn't know,
In the darkness they hadn't noticed, Obito, wearing his spiral mask, was watching them.
"The power of Moryo?"
Obito looked at the quiet battlefield.
An hour ago, there had been a vigorous battle here.
Although the terracotta soldiers were fearless, they had many drawbacks.
Not flexible enough, unable to use Ninjutsu, etc.
When facing agile Shinobi, they had no advantage except numbers.
But they were just puppets summoned by Moryo's power. Even if destroyed, it meant nothing to Moryo.
As long as the power remained, the terracotta soldier army would appear endlessly.
In a war of attrition, Moryo feared no enemy.
"I wonder if I could borrow it."
Obito's gaze was thoughtful.
He didn't know if Moryo's power was strong.
The last time Moryo was sealed by Miroku, he was in the shadows carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan.
So he hadn't directly experienced Moryo's power.
"Much inferior to the White Zetsu."
Obito gave his assessment.
Although those White Zetsu looked like idiots,
They were also unafraid of death, could think, and could even use Ninjutsu.
The White Zetsu's Substitute Technique couldn't even be detected by the Byakugan.
Because after transforming, the Chakra Nature of the White Zetsu would be identical to the person they transformed into.
The prerequisite was that the White Zetsu could absorb the Chakra of the person they were imitating.
