Chapter 21 [Crouching Dragon and Phoenix]

"Sister Kano is really nice."

Seeing Momanogi Kano walk out of the camp with her graceful figure, Hyuga Bin sighed inwardly.

After coming to the Naruto world for so many years, most of the people he met were "good people".

Of course, Hyuga Bin didn't want to crook the "any need" that Momanogi Kano said.

He is only nine years old now, and he doesn't even think about things that he can't do.

Anyone who wants to be crooked should go to the wall and think about it!

After making up the simple bed, Hyuga Bin lay on the bed and began to take a nap.

After rushing for two days in a row to reach the front line, although the body does not feel too tired, but the spirit is inevitably a little tired, wanting to get lazy and take a rest.

...

At the same time, other places in the camp are closely arranged.

The commander-in-chief of Sand Shinobi's front line this time is Orochimaru, one of Konoha Sannin.

Orochimaru is in his early thirties this year. It is the golden age of a ninja, and he is also at the moment when his prestige is at its peak.

Since Hatake's last "mission event", Orochimaru's popularity in Konoha Village can no longer be suppressed.

For the ownership of Fourth Hokage, Orochimaru's voice is getting louder and louder.

However, the recent Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen has been hesitant to launch Orochimaru as the Fourth Hokage.

Orochimaru is Sarutobi Hiruzen's favorite disciple. In Sarutobi Hiruzen's previous plan, becoming the Fourth Hokage was a certainty.

But in the past few years, Orochimaru seems to have become more cold-blooded than before, and he may have been out of his control, making him a little doubtful whether Orochimaru will listen to him after becoming the Fourth Hokage.

And this gave the rising star Namikaze Minato a chance.

With the brilliance of the third Ninja War, Namikaze Minato defeated Orochimaru by a narrow margin in the Fourth Hokage selection and became the new Hokage of Konoha Village.

It's just that these are the plot and afterwords of the original book.

This time the deputy commander-in-chief of the front line is Nara Shikaku, the current young patriarch of the Nara clan.

At this time, Nara Shikamaru's father, Nara Shikaku, was only a Jōnin under the age of 20, and it was several years before he replaced his father, as the head of the Nara clan.

And once, in addition to Nara Shikaku as the deputy commander, the Nara clan also dispatched Nara Lucheng and Nara Lushan with the highest IQ of the Nara clan.

The two can be regarded as the Wolong and the phoenix in the Three Kingdoms period.

In addition, more than one-third of Konoha Shinobi were assembled on the front line this time.

In this battle, Konoha is determined to beat Sunagakure.

...

In the following month, Hyuga Bin participated in several meetings, and then in addition to healing the wounded, he was practicing ninjutsu alone.

In his free time, he occasionally worried that if Hyuga Masaki was doing alright.

Hyuga Masaki is a character whose name has never appeared in the original work. Even if he has the strength of Jōnin, he is still not enough on the front line. It is possible to receive death at any time.

Uchiha Obito and Rin Nohara mixed with Namikaze Minato, so he didn't worry about the danger for the time being.

As for himself, he is safer, and the medical ninja does not have to fight on the front line.

But despite this, Hyuga Bin still hopes that the war will end soon, instead of fighting for four years like the original book, he wants to go home sooner.

In the original book, the battle between Konoha Village and Sunagakure was the battle at Kikyo Mountain in Konoha's 46th year.

But this time Hyuga Bin changed history, resulting in Hatake Sakumo who did not commit suicide, and chose to come back under the circumstances of Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen's "Will of Fire" chicken soup, went to the front line, participated in this time with Sunagakure as an ordinary Anbu ninja.

With Hatake Sakumo's strong personal strength, Hyuga Bin feels that Konoha might end the battle early.

After all, Konoha's White Fang Fang Hatake Sakumo is not a vain name, but a werewolf who can brush Sasori's parents without injury.

Even if Chiyo who is over half a hundred years old, she will not be Hatake Sakumo's opponent.

It was also after this month that Sunagakure's first wave of attacks came.

Sand Shinobi not only dispatches intelligence detection teams to investigate Konoha's frontline intelligence, but also dispatches several elite teams that are good at concealment to invade Konoha's frontline defenses in an attempt to attack and eliminate a small number of Konoha Shinobi.

What Sunagakure didn't expect was that Nara Lucheng and Nara Luyuan from Konoha Village had anticipated the operation of Sand Shinobi, which directly caused White Fang Hatake Sakumo to act and the first line of defense is held.

The hunting teams of Sunagakure were defeated by Hatake Sakumo.

Some Chūnin who are not strong, only saw a flash of white light flashes in front of them, and they become Hatake Sakumo's dead souls under his sword.

Hatake is so fast!

...

Another week later, Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village declared war on Konoha at the same time.

Before Sunagakure started a war against Konoha Village, it made an oral agreement with Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure to share the benefits together.

Otherwise, the number of ninjas is less than three-fifths of Konoha Village, how could Sunagakure dare to single out the strongest Konoha Village.

And this is the appetite for Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village.

Konoha Village has the strongest comprehensive strength among the five ninja villages, and the country of fire has the most abundant resources. In addition to Sunagakure, which turns internal contradictions into external contradictions, Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure have long looked forward to it and want to get a share from Konoha Village.

For this reason, Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure took the initiative to send a large number of ninjas to the front line.

Of course, they did not directly attack Konoha, they just confronted Konoha.

After all, if you kill a thousand enemies, and you will also hurt yourself eight hundred.

The purpose of Cloud Shinobi Village and Iwagakure is to force Konoha to dispatch a large number of ninjas to the border to deal with them, and then wait for Konoha and Sand Shinobi to start a battle, consuming the combat power of both sides.

When the time is right, give Konoha a thunderous blow and force Konoha to surrender!

In this way the goals of Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village were also achieved. In the case of a three on one battle, even Konoha Village, which has the strongest number and quality of troops from the Five Great Shinobi Villages, was somewhat stretched after the troops were dispersed.

Konoha Village had to transfer some of the ninjas who were on the front line against Sunagakure to the front line against Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village.

Among them are White Fang Hatake Sakumo, "Crouching Dragon and Phoenix" Nara Lucheng and Nara Luyuan, three figures who can control the situation of the battle.

And because of the lack of third-line commanders, even Shimura Danzō, who has lost his arm, was dispatched to the battlefield against Iwagakure.

Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is still in Konoha Village. At any moment, as a Hokage, he needs to sit in Konoha Village to strategize and control the overall situation.

A/N I owe you all one chapter which I will release tomorrow. College is so much hectic I am dead tiered now didn't have much energy to write anything.
