Chapter 192: Composite Ninjutsu is worthy of the Hokage! The Demigod rushes into the battlefield!
"Compound Ninjutsu: Earth Dragon Flame Flow!"
When Danzo was once again surrounded by the pursuing forces of Iwagakure and Kusagakure!
Hiruzen Sarutobi, leading a large number of Konoha Ninja!
Finally arrived like a divine army, appearing before Danzo!
"Hiruzen..."
Looking at that slightly short, yet incredibly reliable back!
Danzo's voice actually became choked with emotion!
Just like a child who had been bullied!
At the moment of deep despair, he saw his parent!
"Danzo! You rest well!"
"Other matters can wait!"
"I'll handle things here!"
With a sweep of the ruyi rod!
A raging torrent, dozens of meters high, instantly engulfed the Iwagakure and Grass Ninja in front of him!
"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"
"Damn it! It's the Third Hokage!"
"I didn't expect him to come here personally!"
Watching Hiruzen Sarutobi's constantly flickering figure!
Even Roshi, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, had a look of deep apprehension in his eyes!
A Jinchuriki is strong!
But not strong enough to sweep away everything!
At least, in the current Ninja World!
This man before him, the Third Tsuchikage, the Third Raikage, and that demigod from Hidden Rain Village!
They were all insurmountable mountains for him!
"Lord Roshi! Should we continue fighting?"
A person's reputation precedes them!
After learning Hiruzen Sarutobi's identity, the Iwagakure Ninja quickly stopped fighting!
Gradually gathering around Roshi!
Only a group of fools from Kusagakure Village still couldn't see the situation clearly!
Continuously charging towards the Konoha Ninja!
"Fight?"
"Forget it! The Third Hokage is not a minor character we can deal with casually!"
"This tough bone should be left for that Old fellow to handle!"
"Give the order! Retreat!"
"Lord Roshi! What about the Grass Ninja?"
"Do we need to inform them?"
"Inform them? If we inform them, who will cover our retreat?"
"You? Or me?"
Under Roshi's profound gaze!
Dozens of Iwagakure Ninja followed Roshi's lead and withdrew from the battlefield!
Quickly departing towards the northwest!
"Compound Ninjutsu: Lightning Water Dragon Bullet!"
After the Iwagakure Ninja, who provided combat support, left!
The remaining Grass Ninja, facing Hiruzen Sarutobi's storm-like attacks!
Did not last long!
And one by one, they fell at the hands of the Konoha Ninja!
...Within the Land of Fire!
After entering the Land of Fire, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo, and their group's speed!
Only then gradually slowed down!
"Hiruzen! The matter with Kusagakure Village cannot be left at that!"
"Assign a few more battalions of Ninja to me!"
"I will completely settle the Kusagakure Village matter!"
After stepping onto the soil of the Land of Fire!
Danzo's complexion gradually improved!
His back became straighter!
Although it was unclear where Danzo's confidence came from!
However, at this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi was clearly not in the mood to delve into such matters!
"Danzo! You don't need to worry about this matter anymore!"
"I will send others to handle it!"
"Root suffered significant losses in this mission!"
"Right now, what you need to do is quickly replenish Root's members!"
"And let Root recover its combat strength as soon as possible!"
Although, deep down!
Danzo was still someone Hiruzen Sarutobi could trust!
However, Danzo's inherent arrogance!
Truly gave Hiruzen Sarutobi a headache!
In his opinion, if Danzo had followed his prior instructions!
And promised Kusagakure Village some benefits!
Then, the matter with Kusagakure Village would never have escalated into the current situation!
"Hiruzen! I..."
Sensing the meaning in Hiruzen Sarutobi's words!
Danzo's expression darkened!
But after thinking about Root's situation!
He ultimately said nothing more!
His strength was almost at the bottom among Kage-level Ninja!
But! Root's strength was also not strong!
It seems the plan to search for those talented children... must be accelerated!
In this relatively oppressive atmosphere!
Danzo gradually fell into contemplation!
Konoha!
The matter of Hiruzen Sarutobi leading a team away from Konoha!
Was only known to a small number of people!
Therefore, during the time Hiruzen Sarutobi was away!
There were no major incidents!
Several days later! Late at night!
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo, and their group, along with dozens of Konoha Ninja, returned to Konoha!
And two days after Hiruzen Sarutobi's return!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's ANBU Fourth Squad completed its personnel replenishment!
The Night Squad also welcomed two new members!
Filling the vacancies left by Tobi and Kurogei!
"Hua Hu! I'll leave these two to you for now!"
"I have a date today!"
"Well then! Everyone... see you tomorrow!"
Under the somewhat speechless gazes of Hua Hu and the other two!
Fujiwara Tetsuya instantly disappeared from the Anbu base!
However, wanting to slack off for a date!
Fujiwara Tetsuya was clearly thinking too much!
Just as Fujiwara Tetsuya, Uchiha Mikoto, and Torune Ryoui were enjoying their rare moment of leisure!
Hua Hu and the other two appeared before Fujiwara Tetsuya, their eyes full of smiles!
"Hey! Hua Hu! You three guys... you're not serious, are you!"
"Night! Don't misunderstand!"
"The three of us didn't come here to disturb you on purpose!"
"It's the Squad Leader!"
"The Squad Leader issued a summons, telling us to gather at the base! He said there's an urgent mission!"
"Urgent mission!"
Hearing Hua Hu's explanation!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's heart was instantly filled with resentment towards Saru!
That's right! Resentment!
In the mouth of this Anbu Squad Leader!
Promises of vacation!
Seemed to have never been 100% fulfilled!
"Alright! I understand!"
"You go first!"
"I'll change my clothes and then rush to meet you!"
After sending off Hua Hu and the other two!
Fujiwara Tetsuya quickly departed under the slightly resentful gazes of Uchiha Mikoto and Torune Ryoui!
Root Base!
Because most of the Anbu squads had been dispatched by Hiruzen Sarutobi to carry out missions!
Aside from the two unmoving squads that remained stationed in Konoha!
The Fourth Squad was indeed the only Anbu force currently available for deployment!
Upon arriving at the Anbu base!
Fujiwara Tetsuya and the others also learned the details of this mission from Saru!
All members of the Fourth Squad would follow the Third Hokage to the western border battlefield!
As for why Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Kage of Konoha, would personally intervene!
It was because of Hidden Rain Village!
That man known as a demigod, a pinnacle of the Ninja World, had moved!
Leading over a thousand elite Amegakure Ninja to support the front lines!
In just one day!
He had directly crushed the Konoha main force's defensive line!
Fortunately, Orochimaru had been prepared, and casualties were still within a controllable range!
Several hours later!
Hiruzen Sarutobi urgently assembled eight hundred elite Ninja!
More than half of these Ninja came from the Senju, Hyuga, Nara, Akimichi, Sarutobi, Shimura, Kurama, Yuhi, Hatake, and other prominent Shinobi Clan in Konoha!
Factions like Fujiwara, Tanaka, and Uesugi, which, apart from Fujiwara Tetsuya, only had Tanaka Rina as a Genin, were clearly not considered!
