Chapter 286 Fame, Merit, Strength

The rooftop of the teaching building of the Academy.

Danzō looked at the scroll in his hand suspiciously.

'What does Hiruzen mean by that?'

'Go back and look at it again?'

'Don't lose your temper?'

'Ridiculous.'

'I am Shimura Danzō, even if Konoha collapsed right in front of me, my face won't change at all!'

With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Danzō directly opened the scroll, and when he saw the content, his one eye widened to the extreme!

In the scroll, there is a piece of information obtained by Konoha's Shinobi at the Land of Rain Battlefield after torturing the captured Iwagakure's Shinobi.

The content of the information is very simple. It is an order issued by Iwagakure's higher-ups: Whoever encounters Konoha's "Yellow Flash" need to immediately give up the mission and escape, and the village will not hold them accountable!

And the identity of 'Yellow Flash' is surprisingly... Namikaze Minato!

The corners of Danzō's mouth, then his whole face began to twitch, and in the next instant, he angrily threw the scroll to the ground!

"Why would the idiots of Iwagakure give such stupid orders?!"

'Isn't this helping Namikaze Minato to become famous?'

'Did Minato give you money?'

'Is he your long-lost relative?'

'You actually issue such an unreasonable order?!'

Danzō was restless.

Counting from all three Shinobi World Wars, the Shinobi who can be treated like this by a Shinobi Village can be counted on one's fingers. Before the Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato, only Konoha's White Fang, Hatake Sakumo has obtained such privilege!

In the Second Shinobi World War, Sakumo killed countless Sunagakure's Shinobi on the battlefield, and the forced Sunagakure to issue a similar order: If you encounter Konoha's White Fang, you can unconditionally give up the mission and return to the village!

After Hatake Sakumo, even Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya, the Legendary Sannin that shakes the Shinobi World did not receive such treatment!

'Namikaze Minato, huh?'

'A mere disciple of Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, huh?'

'Why did Iwagakure issue such an order?!'

Jealousy made Danzō completely unrecognizable, and the veins near his temples became even more visible, but he quickly controlled his emotions.

'No matter how strong Namikaze Minato strength is, he will only be the next Konoha's White Fang. There is nothing to worry about!'

But after thinking about it, Danzō still feels uneasy. He waved his hand, and immediately afterwards, a Root's Shinobi appeared next to him, and knelt down on one knee.

"Immediately investigate the Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato. I want to know what he did on the frontline!" Danzō said coldly, "There is also the past of Namikaze Minato, also investigate it."

"Yes!"

The Root's Shinobi immediately disappeared after responding.

That night.

The Root got specific information.

At Root's Headquarters.

Danzō squinted at the information in his hand: Namikaze Minato kept assassinating Iwagakure's Shinobi behind the enemy's line, and then he was surrounded by fifty Jōnin from Iwagakure's special mobile combat unit. Namikaze Minato then killed these fifty Jōnin in split second…

'Split second…'

'Fifty people...'

'Jōnin…'

The corners of Danzō's mouth were twitching like he was having cramps. He didn't speak, but his teeth were grinding at each other.

"It's Flying Thunder God Technique."

In the shadow on the side, Orochimaru walked out slowly, and his golden vertical pupils contained a trace of fear, "Only Nidaime Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique can do such thing."

As someone who wanted to learn every Ninjutsu in the Shinobi World, Orochimaru knows almost all Ninjutsu, so in an instant, he guessed what Minato relied on to accomplish this feat.

"Space-Time Ninjutsu, Flying Thunder God Technique..."

Danzō said furiously, "Why does that bastard Hiruzen give such a dangerous Forbidden Technique to Namikaze Minato?!"

"It should be Jiraiya." Orochimaru lowered his head and said, "His eyes are as sharp as ever."

The two fell silent.

After a while.

Danzō opened his mouth: "Once this information spreads, Namikaze Minato's reputation will instantly surpass you! You have to be prepared."

Orochimaru looked towards Danzō, and his eyebrows wrinkled slowly: "Could it be that Namikaze Minato also want to…"

Danzō nodded solemnly: "I deliberately collected the information about Namikaze Minato. When this guy first entered the Academy, he worked hard on his dream of becoming the Hokage, until now, it's still the same…"

Minato is from a civilian background. Among the many Jōnin in Konoha, he is only one of the many living beings in Konoha, the idiots who want to obtain Hokage's position.

But now, when the information in their hands spreads, Minato's fame will instantly rise to the top of the Shinobi World!

Even Konoha's Sannin has to shy away, even become history, and become… 'Legend'!

And with Minato's terrifying strength, he can easily obtain huge merits on the battlefield, but Orochimaru is now stuck in the village, unable to move even for a little bit. If this continues, Minato's exploits will definitely far surpass Orochimaru's!

Unparalleled fame, merits far surpassing Orochimaru and terrifying strength!

And with Hiruzen and Jiraiya added to the flames…

Danzō and Orochimaru look at each other, and at this moment, they actually felt a little bit cold in their hearts.

"Let's wait and see what happens…" Orochimaru said softly, and then retreated into the darkness.

At the same time, the order about the 'Yellow Flash' issued by Iwagakure also spread throughout the Shinobi World at an extremely fast speed.

Namikaze Minato, who killed fifty Iwagakure's Jōnin in an instant, finally became famous in the Shinobi world under the name of 'Yellow Flash'!

Land of Rain.

Sunagakure's main camp.

When the name of Yellow Flash came to this side, Rasa couldn't sit still.

Being able to kill fifty Jōnin in an instant, Minato's terrifyingness is about to rise to the level of the God of Shinobi World. Rasa is very worried that Minato will defeat Iwagakure and the Land of Earth all by himself. When the time comes, for their Sunagakure, let alone the benefits, the terms of the defeated country may become more stringent!

Rasa immediately sent his men to the Konoha's main camp to seek alliances!

...

When the reputation of Yellow Flash resounded throughout the Shinobi World, Minato, Kanpū, Maika, Yoshihide, and the previously rescued Konuma, Ishida and Mai are still active behind the enemy's line!

The licking dog Maika looked at Konuma's group of three with disgust from time to time: "Hey, you three, it's almost time for you to go back."

Konuma shook his head, and said righteously: "No, the mission hasn't been completed, so we can't just go back like this!"

"Your mission is to attack Iwagakure's logistics. It should be completed." Maika said.

"It's not enough!"

Konuma looked at Minato with eyes full of admiration, and said, "We have to stay here and destroy Iwagakure's logistics! Isn't that right, Minato-sama!"

Minato showed a wry smile, and didn't know what to say.

At this moment, two Iwagakure's Shinobi suddenly emerged from the forest at the front.

When the two groups met, they were all shocked. Whether it was Iwagakure's Shinobi or Minato, they didn't expect such a… coincidence?

In the next instant, two Iwagakure's Shinobi's pupils shrank, as if they had seen a legendary demon, they formed hand seals and escaped into the ground without saying a word.

Doton: Dochū Senkō! (Earth Release: Subterranean Voyage)

The earth thinned under their feet, and the two immediately got into the ground and ran away.

Minato frowned when he saw this.

When Kanpū saw this, he immediately took a half step forward and moved his hands: "Doton: Kaido Shōkutsu!" (Earth Release: Opening Earth Rising Excavation)

Kanpū slammed his palms onto the ground, his Chakra poured into the ground, and the earth trembled in an instant. With a loud sound, a volcano-shaped hole drilled out of the ground, and violently shot out the two Iwagakure's Shinobi, who had drilled into the ground!

In the next moment, Minato threw a special kunai at the Iwagakure's Shinobi in the air, and then his figure flashes, and instantly appeared at mid-air to catch them.
