Chapter 128: Going Into Battle

In the conference room, Danzo's face turned blue and purple, and only his left eye was exposed, which was full of shock and dissatisfaction.

He never expected that Namikaze Minato, although usually quiet and would choose to tolerate most of the aggressive decisions made by him in meetings, would actually have such a ruthless side at critical moments.

In his opinion, even if the Intelligence Department failed in its duties, he should not be removed from his leadership, not to mention that he was also deprived of the Hokage Assistant...

After glancing at the two silent consultants from the corner of his eye, Danzo suddenly felt a sense of suffocation. At the same time, I am also a little confused. The Yondaime are getting rid of the shackles of their ancestors and heading towards the path of dictatorship. Can these two guys just sit back and watch?

In fact, he didn't know that although the two consultants were old-school, they had no ambitions unlike him. Their silence was just a choice made from the standpoint of Konoha's interests. If it were Danzo who went out to defend the enemy, they would also choose to support him. Moreover, the intelligence department under Danzo lied about the news that Kumo ninja would not send troops, which indeed caused the current dangerous situation in Konoha, so Danzo was dismissed, which is reasonable. Although they felt a little inappropriate about stripping Danzo Hokage of assistance, since Minato Namikaze was confident that he could turn the tide, they would support it unconditionally.

"Ahem, the Yondaime will definitely regret doing this! He will bear greater responsibility for the loss of Konoha!!" Amidst a burst of dissatisfaction, everyone chose to avoid Danzo's indignant gaze.

Nara Shikaku put it aside, paused, and continued: "According to the decision made by the Yondaime, two advisors are needed to take charge of the matter and urgently summon ninjas above Chuunin in the village. Gather all members of the Uchiha Guard and mobilize to defend against enemies coming directly to attack Konoha..."

"By the way, there are also Danzo-sama's roots..."

Mito Menyan adjusted his glasses, frowned and complained a bit, but after hesitating for a moment, he still swallowed the words and just murmured: "If you include the security team and the root, it can indeed be done again. Call out dozens of people.”

Nara Shikaku nodded affirmatively: "Preliminary estimates are that there should be about forty people."

Then, at his urging, everyone immediately began to walk out.

Mito Kadobu and Nara Shikaku were in front, and Koharu finally turned to bed. He glanced at Danzo, whose face was still a little gloomy, and couldn't help but sigh again: "Danzo, although the Yondaime did a little too much this time, But after all, he is also for Konoha."

"The heir chosen by Sarutobi is as responsible as he is. At this time, all we can do is trust him."

The implication of her words was, of course, that she hoped that Danzo would put the overall situation first.

However, although the latter's expression soon returned to normal, he was actually sneering in his heart: The Sandaime had a sense of responsibility, but he was not a qualified Hokage.

After finally sending away Sarutobi Hiruzen, how could he let his successor lead Konoha to continue on the same path of three generations?

Because he was not optimistic that Namikaze Minato could stop Kumogakure's army, Danzo thought about it. Now that he had lost the Hokage's assistant and the leadership of the intelligence department, it seemed to be nothing. Anyway, the post-war accountability and impeachment plan of the Yondaime could proceed smoothly. That’s it…

…

Just as the senior officials of Konoha Village were preparing to gather manpower intensively, on a forest path somewhere in the Land of Fire, dozens of Konoha Anbu were walking quickly, more than ten kilometers away from the village.

It was extremely rare to see nearly a squad of ANBU members dispatched en masse.

These people were all dressed in the same uniform, wearing Konoha forehead protectors and masks, wearing ANBU armor, carrying standard sabers on their backs, and moved forward silently but extremely fast in a fixed formation. Although there are many of them, they actually make very little noise. Even the birds perching on the branches in the nearby woods are rarely disturbed. This is the unique discipline and organization of ANBU. .

As an ANBU, the code of secrecy followed during missions is equally important as the code of confidentiality. As long as they are official ANBU members, most of them can move forward with minimal movement during the mission.

At this time, behind this group of Konoha ANBU ninjas, a young ANBU wearing a dog-face mask was constantly calculating the distance they were traveling. Whenever they traveled about five kilometers, he would take out a Just make special kunai and throw them along the way.

The reason for doing this is of course to facilitate the arrival of Namikaze Minato later...

Originally, he was planning to set off with all the ANBU members to rush to the border, but because he suddenly remembered other important arrangements, Namikaze Minato benefited from the convenience of the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, so he chose to let the ANBU set off first, with the zodiac in the air. This is a lazy way of placing marks along the way, preparing to rely on flying thunder gods to catch up with everyone in the end.

At the same time, in Konoha Village.

Namikaze Minato walked out of the medical department of the hospital and finally made all the arrangements.

After getting someone's promise, he was now completely relieved and could rush to the border front line to resist the Kumo ninja troops without any scruples. After finally taking a look at the bustling crowd on the street who were unaware of the crisis, Namikaze Minato used his power of perception to reach his home.

Then he activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared from the spot.

This is probably the first real war scene he will experience after coming to this world. Although the war memory and experience of the former Minato Namikaze made him not nervous, even Golden Flash needs to be mentally prepared for the situation of fighting against the majority with a small number of people. Moreover, this time he also bears the name of Hokage and has to go to the battlefield in person.

If nothing unexpected happens, this will be another battle that he can escape but cannot escape.

The weather is good today, and it is another sunny and warm winter day.

Iori and Naruto are not at home at this time. It seems that they have gone out, and Minato Namikaze is also happy about this, which can save extra time for explanation.

After hurriedly coming to the storage room, he first quickly prepared the special kunai in the ninja bag, and then, just in case, he specially brought a sealing scroll with a large number of spare kunai. It goes without saying that the Flying Thunder God Kunai will help Minato Namikaze in the battle, so he has to make special preparations.

After all the equipment and ninja tools were ready, the fully armed Minato Namikaze came to the mirror and looked at the solemn blond man inside.

After a brief hesitation, he suddenly took off the Konoha forehead protector on his head, opened the closet for the first time in history, and reached out for the divine robe with the five big characters of the Fourth Hokage written in bright red on the back.

Finally, he put it on...
