Chapter 348: The Training!

After returning to Konohagakure, Minato immediately informed everyone about Obito's declaration of war.

"Is he really going to start the Fourth Shinobi World War? It seems Obito has completely gone beyond redemption."

Jiraiya shook his head and said. He knew about Obito, after all, he was once Minato's disciple. Obito had left an impression on him that was exactly like his own past self, but he never expected that Obito would end up on a completely different path.

"By the way, Jiraiya-sensei, can you still contact Orochimaru?"

Suddenly, Minato asked Jiraiya. Although Orochimaru had defected from Konohagakure, Jiraiya still had a way to contact him.

"No, recently Orochimaru seems to be involved in some secret activity and has suddenly disappeared."

Jiraiya said with a serious expression.

"It seems that Orochimaru is indeed involved in this matter."

"What do you mean?"

Hearing this, Jiraiya frowned.

"Before Obito left, he mentioned that many of our deceased friends would appear. I wonder if it could be the Edo Tensei technique. If it is, then it must be Orochimaru."

"That bastard Orochimaru, he's actually getting involved in this."

Jiraiya said with a tone of disappointment. Although he had long known that Orochimaru's heart was no longer with Konohagakure, he never expected him to get involved with Akatsuki.

"If it really is Edo Tensei, then this could be troublesome."

Unlike Jiraiya, Tsunade focused on the issue of Edo Tensei.

"People resurrected by Edo Tensei can't be killed again, they can only be sealed. This means that when we fight the enemy, we must have someone skilled in sealing techniques nearby."

"Ah, this is indeed a very troublesome matter."

Nara Shikaku chimed in. In the ninja world, there are very few people skilled in sealing techniques. If too many people are resurrected by Edo Tensei, it might be impossible to manage all the battlefields.

"Moreover, we don't know what kind of people Orochimaru will resurrect. Orochimaru has even summoned the First and Second Hokage before."

At this moment, Tsunade no longer had any feelings for Orochimaru. When she learned that Orochimaru intended to summon the First and Second Hokage to destroy Konohagakure, she was shocked.

"So we must prepare for the worst. The resurrected might not only include the past Hokage-sama but also the former leaders of other ninja villages."

Nara Shikaku said with a serious expression.

"If only Satoru could help, that would be great."

Then, Nara Shikaku sighed again, and everyone turned their gaze to Satoru.

"Don't look at me like that. Although I want to help you, I might not have enough strength when the time comes."

Hatake Satoru raised his hands and said. Recently, his right eyelid had been twitching, as if something bad was going to happen.

"Damn Otsutsuki clan, they're real bastards."

Tsunade clenched her fist and slammed the table. Fortunately, before Tsunade could act, Minato quickly stabilized the table with chakra, otherwise, it would have fallen apart.

"No choice, I made them feel threatened."

Hatake Satoru spread his hands and said helplessly.

Recently, he had sensed someone watching him, but it was likely from another dimension, so he couldn't accurately locate them.

"But I believe in your strength. Dealing with the Akatsuki members should be more than enough. Besides, don't forget about Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke. Their Sage Mode training should be almost complete. Just thinking about three people mastering Sage Mode is terrifying."

When Hatake Satoru mentioned these three names, Kakashi, Minato, and Tsunade all smiled. After all, these three had deep connections with them.

"I never thought they had such talent."

Tsunade had once considered training in Sage Mode but ultimately failed. She didn't have high expectations for Sakura, but Sakura surprised her.

"Yes, it's quite a coincidence that these three ended up in the same class."

Jiraiya glanced at Kakashi. After all, they were all members of Kakashi's class, meaning they were his students.

To have such talented students, the Hatake family must be blessed.

"Haha, I never thought I'd be so lucky."

Hatake Kakashi squinted and smiled, scratching his head awkwardly.

"Look at their backgrounds. Except for Haruno Sakura, who is a civilian, both Sasuke and Naruto have gifted backgrounds."

Seeing Kakashi's smug look, Hatake Satoru couldn't help but take a jab. After all, his three disciples, no, two disciples, couldn't compare to Kakashi's three, except for Uchiha Itachi.

His two disciples were now almost retired, with no extraordinary talent, just average.

On the battlefield, they wouldn't be cannon fodder, but they wouldn't make a significant impact either.

"When they return from training, the war will probably begin."

Minato said. Although his son's strength would improve, he was still worried about Naruto facing Akatsuki.

"So, you plan to let Naruto master the Nine-Tails' power?"

"Yes, once he learns Sage Mode, it will be time to master the Nine-Tails' power."

Minato deeply understood how powerful the Nine-Tails was. If Naruto could master its power, he wouldn't have to worry too much.

"At that time, if Uchiha Sasuke can awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, their strength will be at its peak."

Hatake Satoru said this while looking at Uchiha Fugaku, assuming these two didn't receive the Sage of Six Paths' inheritance.

"Awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan isn't that easy."

Uchiha Fugaku said helplessly. To awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, talent and opportunity were indispensable.

"Don't worry, I believe Itachi will help his brother."
