Chapter 162 The Choice of the Ninja Clan
The Third Hokage's reaction was very strange. He did not move when facing the Nirvana Jingshe Technique. He did not make a move when the Special Jonin beside him, Hezu Leitong, was attacked and stabbed three holes by the kunai in a row. He was even calmer when the Sound Four used the Four Purple Flame Formation. When the barrier was fully set up, he asked the "Fourth Kazekage" what happened with a calm face.
Then the fifty-year-old lady hugged the seventy-year-old man and talked about private matters that could not be heard by outsiders.
The old lady yawned and said she was a little sleepy.
The old man said he has a retractable Vajra Ruyi Stick. Do you want to see it? The four Sound Ninjas saw them talking about the length and depth of the problem. They were very considerate and each of them made a small barrier in the Four Purple Flame Formation. It was obvious that they had a strong desire to survive and kept in mind their mission as tools. They didn't want to listen to those life-threatening words.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of participating in the Chunin Exam, the Sand Village and the Sound Village sent a large number of ninjas. They disguised themselves as civilians and businessmen, then took off their disguises and launched an attack inside the village. At the same time, a ninja coalition composed of the two villages gathered outside the village.
With the help of both inside and outside forces, the originally peaceful Konoha Village suddenly became ablaze with war. The village's patrol routes, secret sentries and other information had long been secretly passed on by Kabuto. At this time, the ninja coalition outside the village was unstoppable, and one line of defense after another was broken. The situation in the village was critical, and some places such as the Ninja School and Konoha Hospital hurriedly organized the evacuation of personnel.
Kakashi took a lot of Anbu ninjas away, Gai and Rock Lee went to train, Asuma and Hong went to see a movie, and some Jonin and special Jonin at the competition site tried to rescue the Third Hokage, but were stopped by the Sand Village Ninjas and the Sound Village Ninjas.
Maki, the senior ninja of the Sand Village, was quite brave. He blocked the joint attack of two Anbu ninjas by himself.
Many Chunins and Genins were affected by the Nirvana Sutra, and most of the Jonins were not present. The entire Konoha Village's ninja command system was in chaos.
With a roar from the One-Tailed Shukaku, the violent chakra belonging to the tailed beast swept across the battlefield, and the voice of the Third Hokage also came from the Four Purple Flame Formation.
"Don't worry about me. Focus on rescuing civilians and guests from various countries."
The few special jonin felt their hearts tremble when they looked at the One-Tail Shukaku.
There is definitely fear, but you have to go forward when you have to. What happened to the Nine-Tails back then? There were still a large number of ninjas who rushed forward to stop it. The Konoha ninjas are worthy of recognition for their courage to sacrifice.
The key is that the timing was wrong and there were too many civilians at the scene.
Some people think that the people in this village should be rescued, while others think that the politicians from neighboring countries should be rescued first.
In addition, there was no one to take charge, so the scene seemed particularly chaotic.
Whether in public or in private, as the referee, Genma Shiranui has to go up and fight the tailed beast.
He was the closest, so if he didn't go, who would? He wanted to lure the tailed beast out of the village, so he was attacking it with all his might.
Ino didn't know how it became like this. After her butterfly wings fluttered, it looked even more chaotic than the original Konoha collapse plan. In the original time and space, Shukaku didn't appear in the center of the village. Now this is equivalent to a weakened version of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, right? Seeing that Naruto, Sasuke, and Shiranui Genma seemed to want to practice with the One-Tails Shukaku, she chose to hide temporarily.
Unlike Naruto and Sasuke who have no parents, friends, wife or children, she has a whole family here.
One choice is to rush forward and fight head-on, and the other choice is to protect her family. She will definitely choose the latter.
Two Otogakure ninjas rushed towards her fiercely. Ino chopped them into four pieces with a Water Cutting Wave. Without even looking at them, she grabbed Hinata's hand and ran away.
On the way, he handed Hinata to her father Hyuga Hiashi, who rubbed Hanabi's little head. Everyone had a tacit understanding, nodded, and quickly left the scene.
Ino soon joined up with Haiyi and Rino.
Yamanaka Rino is different from Uzumaki Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto. The latter two are both jonin, but Rino is just a chuunin and has not fought with anyone for more than ten years.
The family of three killed more than ten people and gathered a large number of ninjas from the Yamanaka family, the Nara family and the Akimichi family. Then they quietly rushed to the Nara family's medicinal materials base outside the village.
The ninjas of Ino-Shika-Chou gathered together and first made arrangements for the elderly, the weak, women and children.
Rino, Shikamaru's mother, and Choji's mother all followed to the Nara family's underground shelter to take shelter temporarily. There was a secret passage underneath, so they could escape if the village was lost.
The village has corresponding protection mechanisms, but the ninjas also have their own arrangements, and at this time they believe more in their own abilities.
Ino pinned the Jinchuriki to the ground and beat him. No matter how she looked at it, she couldn't be counted among the elderly, the weak, women and children.
Rino gave her a few instructions and she followed Haiyi to attend the meeting. Shikamaru nodded to her and soon, Choji also arrived.
For these ninjas, family comes first, and village? The village can only be ranked second.
Shikaku feels the strongest sense of belonging to the village, but he cannot ignore the interests of his family.
Are you stupid enough to rush out and fight the enemy at this time? Don't be kidding! Of course, you should protect your family first, and then think about the rest later.
The Hyuga family, the Inuzuka family, the Aburame family, and even the Sarutobi family all did this. The elderly, the weak, women and children in the family must be protected, as these people are the foundation of the family.
The heads of the three families were discussing in a low voice. Ino didn't care about her image as a village beauty at all and sat there drinking by herself. Shikamaru was yawning and was hurriedly woken up. He was still sleepy. Choji watched Ino drinking. The adults didn't seem to say anything. He rolled his eyes around and took out some potato chips and started eating them.
The ninjas from the three families continued to gather information from all sides.
"Master, the Third-generation did not call upon the Ninja Clan to join the war."
"Master, the ANBU and Root ninjas did not participate in the battle in large numbers. Neither the two advisors nor Lord Danzo showed up."
"Master, all the people of the Hyuga family are gathered at the main family mansion for defense."
While people were fighting outside, things were quite peaceful in the Nara family.
The heads of the three families sat in the main seats listening to reports, while the three younger ones, including Ino, could only sit below and wait for orders, under the euphemism of studying.
Even Shikamaru and Ino don't have much say in this situation, let alone the fat young master Choji.
The attack route of the Sand Village and the Sound Village was very clear. They did not attack these ninja clans at all, and even the big shops and banks were not moved. All their forces were deployed on the stadium. The intention of the decapitation operation was obvious.
Ino-Shika-Chou has decided to continue supporting the Third Hokage, but he cannot take action right away.
Lu Jiu is well aware that it is better to help someone in need than to add icing on the cake.
Moreover, the ninjas of his Sarutobi clan have not been dispatched yet, so why should we let Ino-Shika-Chou take the lead? It doesn't make sense.
"Wait a little longer." There was a ninja from the Nara family who was brainwashed by the Will of Fire and wanted to fight. He gave the order directly and waited.
