Chapter 333 The third battle begins!
After receiving Silang's order, Xiaoyu let out a "squeak" and turned into a floating disc in front of Silang in front of their astonished eyes.
Shiro stretched out his right hand, his palm facing the disc, while the disc faced Tuan Tuan.
"Strengthen, start!"
"Tuan Tuan's strengths are strong attack and high defense, but its weakness is its lack of flexibility. Although it has the ability to charge, it can't be used in combat. So what we need to do is to amplify it according to the situation."
As soon as Shiro finished speaking, Tuantuan rushed towards the opponent with light patterns all over his body. This time, his speed was much faster.
"Just like now, the reason why Tuantuan can't defeat the opponent is because his own speed is not enough, so we need to strengthen it."
Sure enough, Tuan Tuan, who was buffed by Shiro, quickly dealt with his opponent. Of course, this was also because the opponent accepted his fate and his resistance was a little weak.
"You have to remember that it's unrealistic for us to be the main attacker in the early stages, and even in the later stages. This is due to our fighting style. Therefore, if you want to truly unleash your abilities, it's best to find your position well."
"Just like a medical ninja, you can't expect him to be able to both heal and fight. There's only one such person now, Tsunade-sama. As for what position you want to play in the team, it's up to you to decide. I hope you will think about this carefully."
"I understand, teacher."
After that, Silang casually exchanged greetings with Tuantuan and returned to the village with everyone else.
The mission has been completed now. Although I didn't see the people who came to take over, they were just incidental and there was nothing I could do if I didn't meet them.
After returning to the village, Shiro and the others first handed in the task, and then took Shisui and the others to practice. Now that they had just fought, it was easiest to find their own shortcomings at this time.
But this time it was not Silang who gave them instructions. Instead, they had to reflect on themselves first, and then Silang would give them guidance and train them slowly.
But this leisurely practice did not last long, because just a few days after Shilang and the others returned, something big happened!
Sunagakure, declared war on Konoha!
The reason is that Konoha may be related to the disappearance of the Third Kazekage and that Konoha has planted a large number of spies in their village, and it is said that many lists have been drawn up.
Of course, Shiro was very skeptical about how many of them were real Konoha spies.
But no matter what their reasons are, the fact is that they declared war on Konoha, and have now launched an attack on their border.
Of course, Konoha was not afraid at all. It immediately found out all the Sunagakure spies in Konoha and exposed the information that Shiro and his team had obtained before.
But these are all empty words, and can only give you a superficial reason to start a war. Once you lose the battle, all of your efforts will be fake.
Therefore, Konoha held a combat meeting to arrange the battle against Sunagakure. This meeting covered most of the senior officials. Therefore, Shiro was very curious about why the Third Hokage called him.
His current meritorious service and qualifications are not enough to command a war zone, and he has not made much contribution in this matter.
Therefore, Shiro guessed that they were probably talking about their department. After all, the war was about to begin, and many things had to be decided and arranged.
Of course, it is also possible that they just want him to be familiar to others.
At the same time, Shiro also felt that the time was almost right. As long as there were no unexpected problems, Minato would definitely get a big advantage this time!
Soon, the meeting began.
There is no different opinion on starting a war. They still have some confidence. Since others have come to attack, they naturally will not give in.
What we need to discuss now is who will be in charge of the war zone.
This problem was quickly resolved. Except for Danzo, everyone else recommended Orochimaru.
One is that Orochimaru himself has sufficient achievements and strength, and he is also a disciple of the third generation, so his status is also high enough.
Secondly, according to their current intelligence, Chiyo is leading the Sunagakure team. Chiyo's poison is top-notch in the ninja world. Since Tsunade has not returned to the village, Orochimaru is the most suitable person.
Of course, speaking of Orochimaru, the other two will naturally not be let off. They have been asked to rush back to the village and stand by. After all, they still have to guard against several other villages.
The ones who were happiest about this decision were Shiro and his friends.
Orochimaru agreed to join Minato's team. That is to say, although the achievements in the Sand Village war zone still belong to Orochimaru, they will add a strong impact on Minato's competition for the position of Hokage.
After the candidates were finalized, the subsequent matters of the war were quickly arranged, such as supplies.
Next, it was the trivial matters of the village. The most important of these was to allow the graduating class of the Ninja School to graduate early so that they could experience the life of a ninja for a period of time, so as to avoid having insufficient combat power when they were temporarily deployed.
Of course, the village is not short of combat power at the moment, so it just allows the graduating class to graduate early, which means Kakashi can finally graduate...
After that, we talked about Shiro and the others.
"Minato, what personnel has your department currently assembled? Please report this way so that they can cooperate with our operations."
"Yes, Lord Hokage, this is our personnel composition." Minato first stood up and bowed, then handed a roster to the Third Hokage.
"Gardener? Does that name mean anything?"
"Eradicate the root of darkness lurking in the ninja world."
After listening, the third generation looked at Shiro and Danzo. He knew Minato's character. Only Shiro would say such words. However, as long as there was no formal confrontation and it did not affect the operation of the village, he would not care about this matter.
Therefore, the third generation glanced at them and then looked at the list in his hand, then his eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.
"Please stop what you are doing and cooperate with the village's actions."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
"Alright, that concludes this meeting. Everyone go down and prepare. Orochimaru stays."
Everyone looked at the third generation who looked unhappy, feeling a little puzzled. The Sand Village shouldn't be a big threat, but they didn't think too much about it. They just bowed slightly and walked out of the meeting room.
After everyone had left, the Third Generation said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Have you really decided?"
"Well, didn't Sarutobi-sensei also have his own choice?"
"I'm trying to make you more motivated, not you..."
"Do you believe it?"
The Third Hokage was silent. He really didn't think so. He simply felt that Minato was more suitable for the position of Hokage than Orochimaru. That was all. Therefore, he was speechless.
"Don't worry, Sarutobi-sensei. I can't be Hokage. I think you know the reason. If this stalemate continues, maybe one day I will become a traitor."
"And Sarutobi-sensei, you also know my dream. The position of Hokage will only become an obstacle for me. Since you already have a better candidate, then I will naturally pursue my dream, Sarutobi-sensei."
