Chapter Fifty-Three: An Undercurrent Swells
After the battle with Ningji, Wuruo was directly admitted to the hospital in Konoha Village. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Because he forcibly opened the door of life and fought such a high-intensity battle, it caused multiple fractures of muscles all over his body, and it has reached the point where he has to rest in bed!
And in the past month, everything seems to be calm on the surface.
But beneath this calm surface, there is an undercurrent!
First of all, it's naturally about the big snake pill that came back with a menacing kill!
Not only did he send the three ferocious Ninja Shinobi to participate in this middle ninja selection exam, but even Konoha Village also had his spies inside.
According to Kakashi Hachiki's report, the team led by Yakushidou is actually Orochimaru's direct subordinates!
And Yakushidou himself is not a lower ninja who can't even pass the middle ninja exam with mediocre strength, but an upper ninja-level enemy who can fight against Kakashi in the middle without falling behind.
But these are not the most serious, the most serious thing is that according to the intelligence of the red bean, it can be confirmed that Orochimaru himself has returned!
And in today's Konoha, there is no perfect candidate who can compete with Orochimaru!
The strength of Konoha Village is indeed one of the best super ninja villages among many ninja villages, but the continuous battles have also greatly depleted the strength of Konoha Village.
Since then, a series of changes such as the three ninjas leaving the village one after another, the Nine-Tails Rebellion, and the Uchiha Annihilation Tragedy have caused Konoha Village to lose a large number of shadow-level powerhouses such as Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade, Bo Feng Shuimon, Uchiha Shisui, and Uchiha Itachi.
This has led to the embarrassing situation that there is now a huge Konoha Village, and on the bright side, there is only one dying old Hokage of the third generation.
Although a large number of shinobi such as Kakashi Hachiki and Maite Kai are growing up at an extremely rapid rate. The reputation of "copy ninja" and "blue beast" gradually spread to other ninja villages.
However, this does not change the fact that they still haven't been able to jump out of the circle of Shangnin!
Even if he is the best of the upper ninja, there is still a long way to go from the shadow level!And from the fact that the current Kakashi can't even die with Orochimaru, and then he is completely crushed by Itachi, it can be clearly seen that this distance is still very far away!
Of course, Kakashi didn't really fight with Orochimaru, and the fight with Itachi happened to be a little restrained by Itachi. So just looking at these, you will feel that Kakashi's strength is low. However, combined with the battle between Kakashi and Deidara three years later, even Kakashi three years later, his strength is only quasi-shadow-level, and he is still a little short of the real shadow-level. What's more, he hasn't been able to use the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye very well, and he is far from the shadow level.
Comparatively speaking, Maite Kay is better than Kakashi. From Xiao Li, who can now open the fifth gate, it can be inferred that the current Kai can at least open the sixth door or above, and it is estimated that it is about the seventh gate. However, it is estimated that he has not been able to grasp the power of opening the seventh gate well, which will cause a great burden on his body, and he can never be compared to him who can still be alive after opening the seventh gate three years later.
Of course, if he really opened the seventh gate regardless of it, he would definitely be able to obtain the strength of the shadow level or even above the shadow level in a short period of time, but it is estimated that it will cause some irreversible permanent damage to his body! In other words, now he can be regarded as a one-time shadow-level powerhouse!
And Kakashi and Kai already represent the highest level of Konoha Murakami's ninja strength, and the strongest combat power below the shadow level on Konoha Ming's face!
But now they are still a little immature!
Yes, immature! If you look at it from the perspective of ordinary people, they are already the best of the upper ninja, and they have nothing to do with immaturity in any case. But from the perspective of shadow-level strength, both of them are some immature ninjas who are still growing up with the strength to become movie-level powerhouses!
Don't think that only Naruto, Sasuke and the other shinobi have grown up in the past three years. The strength of these upper ninjas has also made great progress!
This is the situation in Konoha Village now, and it is in an embarrassing stage of lack of success.
The three generations of Hokage are already old, but the group of shinobi led by Kakashi and Kai have not yet grown up enough to shoulder the responsibilities of a village. Originally, the two generations in the middle of these two generations - Sannin and Bo Feng Shuimen walked away, died, and even Orochimaru killed them violently!
This has to make the surrounding ninja villages start to have some crooked thoughts, such as the sand ninja village!
Sand Ninja Village is this second undercurrent!
The situation in the Sand Ninja Village is actually even more unbearable than that of Konoha, the Red Sand Scorpion defected, the three generations of Kazekage mysteriously disappeared, and there was only one fourth-generation Kazekage left in the entire Sand Ninja Village. What's worse than Konoha is that the four generations of Kazekage themselves are mesozoic ninjas, but the Sand Ninja Village can't find anyone who can inherit Kazekage's position.
Temari and Kankuro, as the leaders of the new generation of Sand Ninja Village, have grown up to be only a quasi-shadow-level strength at most. And the strongest I-Airo is an uncontrollable human pillar force, not to mention inheriting the position of the Wind Shadow, how to control him well is a problem!
Looking at the current situation from the perspective of the four generations of Kazekage, you will find a very embarrassing problem.
Judging from the current two shadows alone, it is natural that he is in the prime of life and has a lot of advantages over the old guy, and maybe in a few years the old guy will enter the coffin by himself. But—
However, in a few years, Kakashi and Kai from Konoha Village will grow up and take over the burden of the three generations of Hokage. At that time, the age advantage will not be on the side of Sand Ninja Village, but on the side of Konoha in turn!
Moreover, the new generation of Shinobi in Sand Ninja Village has no one who is up to the task. In another ten or twenty years, I'm afraid it will be his turn to worry about how not to be annexed by Konoha Village!
Driven by this idea, the four generations of Kazekage Raksha naturally have to find a way out for the Sand Ninja Village!
Since you can't increase the strength of the Sand Ninja Village, there's only one way left!
Weaken the strength of Konoha Village, and even - annex Konoha Village!
At this time, Orochimaru came up! The two hit it off, and before Kakashi, Kai and the others could grow up, they killed Konoha's only shadow-level ninja - the third generation Hokage!
This is where the Konoha Destruction Plan is born!
In this way, a huge net gradually opened up towards the peaceful Konoha Village!
In addition to Orochimaru and Sand Ninja Village, there are also certain unstable factors within Konoha Ninja Village!
"So, that fire dragon, and that giant fireball in the Forest of Death, were all made by Uchiha Muruo?" asked an old man on crutches as he turned to a masked man who was half-kneeling on the ground.
"Yes!-sama Danzo!" the shadow replied respectfully.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Tuan Zang directly motioned to the other party to leave first: "You retreat first!"
"Yes!" The voice had not yet dissipated, but the shadow was nowhere to be seen!
After a long time, Danzo's voice sounded again: "It's worthy of your younger brother, Uchiha Shisui!"
