Chapter 70: The Aftermath! Hero?
In April of the forty-sixth year of Konoha, Konoha attacked Zewang Mountain and defeated Yunyin.
The Battle of Mt. Zewang changed the battlefield situation of the Land of the Moon, and the originally dominant Yunyin Village changed its original aggressive offensive posture after the loss of Mt. Zewang and the loss of a large number of ninjas, while Konoha began to gain the upper hand after successfully capturing the key point of Mt. Zewang. Before new reinforcements arrived, Yunyin Village did not dare to risk attacking.
News of the battle spread quickly, and reactions were mixed.
The previous failures have kept Konoha, the first ninja village in the ninja world, in a low state, but fortunately, the news from the front line of the Moon Country in time has greatly boosted the morale of the village, which has been low.
Konoha executives also saw the opportunity to hold a grand celebration in the village to inspire people, and at the same time vigorously promote Kusariruha, who made great contributions to this war, and establish the image of a young hero. On the one hand, it is to help the grass Qianyi clan better integrate into Konoha, and on the other hand, it is also to use the image of a young hero to inspire the children in the village to contribute their own strength to Konoha.
After all, the war has been fought for so long, and Konoha's reserve force has been a little insufficient, causing the three generations in power to turn a blind eye and send the students of the ninja school to the battlefield in advance. It was also because of the war that the promotion of Nakagami Shinobi became frequent and easy.
Several other ninja villages began to become cautious after learning the details of the battle of Zewangshan, and the battle of Zewangshan made the other ninja villages see the huge role that seclusion can play in the battlefield. The Hidden Ninja itself may not be too powerful, but this ability to detect enemy intelligence without knowing it is terrifying. All of a sudden, the major ninja villages began to wonder if they had a means to deal with the hidden ninjas.
The Kusa Thousand Clan chose Kusakuin Village in the great changes of the times when the ninja clan merged into a ninja village. As a small country in the gap between the big powers, the country of grass has never participated in the disputes between the big powers except for this time when it joined the war against Konoha under the leadership of Urashi Kumi, and gave full play to the excellent quality of the wall grass. All this made the grass thousand clan, the former ninja clan, slowly fade out of people's sight.
The last time the Kusa Thousand Clan entered the sight of the high-level leaders of various countries was because of the civil unrest in Grass Hidden Village, although they knew that Konoha had taken in some of the children of the Grass Thousand Clan, they didn't care much about it. But unexpectedly, these remnants of the Caoqian clan gave them a big surprise in the blink of an eye.
The intelligence departments of the major ninja villages began to operate in full force, and began to look for ways to prevent retreat, and the information of the Kusa Qian clan was constantly presented to the desks of the upper echelons. But after analysis, it was found that there was basically no other way to prevent the hidden ninja except for the white eyes of the Hyuga clan, the former feud of the Kusachi clan, who could restrain the retreat.
This discovery made the major ninja villages feel helpless, and they couldn't help but complain that the grass hidden village was not doing things cleanly, so that the remnants of the grass thousand clan ran to Konoha. And Caoyin Village also felt wronged, and they didn't know that the Caoqian clan had such a convenient passage as the Black Stone Boundary Monument. In the Fog Hidden Village, the white-eyed Qing has become more valued, after all, he is now the only person in the Fog Hidden Village who can find the Hidden Ninja.
.......
In the forest, four figures are busy arranging traps. Through the hidden perception, Ryuha and the others knew that a team of Cloud Hidden Ninjas would pass through this place soon.
"Ryuha, you're now a hero in the village." Asma, who was laying out the trap, turned her head to Ryuyu and said enviously.
It can be said that the most dazzling thing in the battle of Zewangshan is not the front-line commander Bo Feng Shuimen, nor the Yamanaka Haiichi and Shimura Ken who led the team to attack Zewangshan, but the ten-year-old Kusachi Ruyu. Ryuha became a well-known hero in Konoha in this war, but Asma, a hot-blooded boy, was very unconvinced. Of course, as a companion of the squad, Asma has more of a pride in Ryuyu than envy and jealousy.
"That's, you don't look at who I am!" Hearing this, Ryuha arranged his two short blades, and turned his head to look at Asma with a stinky expression. Stimulating Asma and killing him is what Ryuyu likes to do most in his spare time from fighting. Looking at Asma's unconvinced look, Ryuyu always had an inexplicable pleasure.
"You wait, Uncle Ben will definitely shine in this war. When the time comes, ninjas from other countries will be frightened to abandon the mission and flee for their lives when they hear the name of Uncle Ben. Asma couldn't stand Liuyu's stinky appearance, and said unwillingly.
"Alright, alright! Don't play tricks, the enemy is coming, and if you want to quarrel, go back and quarrel again. When Yamanaka Hai on the side saw this, he couldn't help but helplessly interrupt the bickering of his two living treasure students.
On the other side, Red hid the most chuckling and looked at everything in front of him. Bickering with Asma is Ryuyu's favorite thing to do in his spare time, and appreciating Asma and Ryuha's bickering has become a rare entertainment item for Red in his free time from fighting.
"Heroes?" After finishing the daily bickering with Asma, Ryuyu couldn't help but whisper in his heart.
There will always be two heroes in the war, some of whom have become heroes with their outstanding military exploits, and some of whom have become so-called 'heroes' through the propaganda of the village.
Some heroes can get huge benefits after the end of the war, just like Bo Feng Shuimen successfully sat in the position of the fourth Hokage. And some heroes have just become a bigger bargaining chip in the hands of the higher-ups, such as the scorching envoy Hakura who was given to Fog Yin by Sha Yin in exchange for a truce.
This so-called hero, in addition to the fact that he did make a lot of contributions in this war, the bigger reason is because Konoha needs heroes at this moment. At this moment, Konoha is struggling to fight with four ninja villages at the same time, and urgently needs heroes to boost the low morale of the village, and at the same time, the image of a young hero can also encourage more children to graduate early and join the battlefield to defend Konoha.
War has always been an adjunct of politics, and the so-called war hero is just a powerful pawn in the hands of the village leaders.
However, this time he became the hero of Konoha and could make the rest of the village recognize the Kusa Chi Clan, and it would be a good thing to help the Kusa Chi Clan better integrate into Konoha .
........
"It's coming!" Yamanaka Haiichi, who had been paying attention to the situation in the distance, reminded a few people in a low voice.
Hearing Yamanaka's reminder, Asma and Red quickly entered the predetermined ambush site.
And Ruyu was also pulled back to reality by Yamanaka's reminder, shook his head, and Ruyu quickly hid in the big tree behind him and waited for the arrival of the prey.
