Chapter 53: Protecting the Remnant
There are more than 20,000 ninjas in Konoha in total, of which there are probably more than 10,000 lower ninjas and more than seven or eight thousand middle ninjas, the number of Konoha upper ninjas is no more than 1,000, and the number of elite upper ninjas is two or three hundred, and many are already in a semi-retired state.
Thousands of ninjas seem to be numerous, but Konoha is the strongest ninja village among the five major countries, and it is in the center of the continent, and there must be a sufficient number of ninjas stationed on the borders of the country of fire in all directions, so that they will not be defeated in an instant.
The upper ninja who stayed in the village,Most of them are relatively free upper ninjas,They usually carry out tasks,Maintain the daily operation of the ninja village,Among them, the innocent elite and strong people have the opportunity to join the dark department and become the direct force of the Hokage's direct cronies。
As the assistant of the highly trusted Hokage, although the strength of Shimura Danzang's root organization is strong, there is still no way to compete with the strength of the dark department, so the number of elite shinobi under him must be very limited, plus tonight is the night of his carefully planned Uchiha extermination, Danzang must personally take most of the elite of the root organization to the Uchiha clan to suppress the formation:
With Danzo's suspicions, he didn't trust Itachi, or rather, Danzou didn't trust anyone in the Uchiha clan.
Compared to Sarutobi Hiza, Danzou is the staunchest supporter of the Uchiha's policy by the Hokage II Mesenju, and he is even more radical, and he has wanted to completely destroy the unstable factor of Konoha Hidden Village for a long, long time.
As for the remnants of Uchiha who accidentally avoided Maitkai's house and escaped the catastrophe of extermination, Danzo only sent a middle ninja force to clean up the tail, and the deployment of troops is like a battle, and the master pays attention to just the right amount, especially when his own strength is very tense, so naturally he will not waste it.
But it was precisely because of this cleverness of Danzang that Naruto was given the opportunity to realize that the root organization ninjas who came were not particularly strong and unmatched, Naruto hid himself among the fallen children in the living room, and then waited for those root organization ninjas to find the descendants of the Uchiha.
When the ninjas of the root organization thought that the mission was complete and were about to leave with the children, Naruto suddenly opened his eyes, rolled over, and slashed at the chosen target.
There is mental arithmetic or not, coupled with Naruto's solid sword foundation, he has been repeatedly calculated and practiced in his heart, plus the target ninja is holding the Uchiha's child in his left and right hands, and the body shape changes quickly, and the blue and blue sword light like a match directly cuts the root of the target ninja's leg, and a large stream of crimson blood gushes like a spring in an instant.
"Ahh
"Scared, what's going on?"
"Don't move!"
"You are not allowed to move!"
Slashing off the leader's right leg, Naruto held a kunai in his left hand and slammed it across the neck of the ninja who fell backwards, and at the same time, he was worried that the guy would kill himself, so he punched the opponent in the temple with his right hand, knocking him unconscious.
The temple, which is enough to kill the vital point, is just that Naruto is young and worried that he will not have enough strength, so he hits here.
"Who are you? Who are you? Put them all down Uchiha Mizushima, put them down immediately! ”
If the leader had not been hijacked, if the leader had not been unconscious, then these ninjas of the root organization might not hesitate to make a move, but at this moment, the ninjas of the root organization led by a middle ninja were indeed a little at a loss, after all, in any organization, mediocre people are the majority after all, and the elite will always be a relative minority.
"Little brother, relax a little, we are members of the Konoha Shadow Division, and we are on a mission now." After putting down the two Uchiha toddlers who were holding in their hands, a ninja wearing an animal mask stepped forward and said this.
In fact, he didn't lie, Danzou himself cultivated his root organization in the name of the "Dark Training Department", and there were many ninjas who worked for the root organization, and even thought that they were receiving preliminary training to become the dark department.
"That guy at seven o'clock behind me, put down the shuriken you are holding, although you can't hurt me, but with a shake of my hand, you will be charged with murdering your superiors." The ninja in front of him stepped forward, Naruto's eyes turned to the right, and he immediately shouted angrily, and at the same time, his hand was strengthened, and the neck of the ninja in front of him was immediately cut out of blood.
(How did he find out?) Obviously not from the Hyuga family. No matter how puzzled he was, the root ninja put down his weapon and threw it on the ground in front of him as a sign of sincerity.
"Shadow ninjas? Hehe, uncle, I'm only seven years old this year, and I don't read much, don't lie to me. A dark ninja would sneak into a shinobi's home late at night and take the young son of the Uchiha clan? I don't think you're a shadow ninja of Konoha or a cloud ninja or a rock ninja, and I heard about Project Eye-catching last year......"
"Uh........."
The two sides fell into a stalemate for a while.
But Naruto didn't notice, or he couldn't deal with it, and a root ninja secretly sealed in the shadows to pass on the message for help.
At present, stalemate with these ninjas around him is already the upper limit of Naruto's ability.
On the other side, the Uchiha clan land.
The sky brightened, the golden sun leaped out of the sea of clouds, the darkness receded, and the world became alive again.
It's just that some people's lives are forever stuck in last night.
(At the age of twelve, overnight, he destroyed the first wealthy family of Konoha, but fortunately that man has a weakness, otherwise it would be too dangerous.) )
Standing on the ruins of the Uchiha clan's clan land, Danzo waved and said, "Check the surroundings to see if there are any other survivors." ”
If there is one, make up the knife and remember to gouge out the eye.
Tuan Zang didn't say the latter sentence explicitly, but these subordinates around him didn't work at the root for the first day, so they naturally knew what to do.
At this time, a female ninja suddenly came to the group's side, and she quickly reported the information after giving the salute.
"Waste, just dealing with a few children who haven't graduated yet, and making such a mistake. Send Miura and Sato to deal with it and tell them not to hurt the people of the village. ”
"Hey."
Because the power originally used to deal with the Uchiha's rebellion was completely useless, so the strength of the group was saturated at this time, so it was no longer just right, and at this time, the emphasis was on the lion fighting the rabbit and having to do his best.
Therefore, the two ninjas sent by Tuanzang were both upper ninjas, and the two of them made a move, even if they saved people in person and subdued Naruto, Naruto at this time had little room to resist.
There is an upper limit to the efforts of ordinary people, and Shangnin is basically the ceiling of an ordinary person's effort limit.
If you want to go up, you must either be talented, or have a strong family inheritance, or have luck and adventure. Efforts alone can make you stand out from most people, but it can't make you stand out from the top of the best.
Because to be a first-class powerhouse, people also put in the same effort. Twenty-four hours a day, you practice twelve hours and twelve hours, so do I, you can use your brain, and so will I.
For civilian ninjas from ordinary people, Shangninja is the upper limit of personal effort, if you are lucky, and the interpersonal handling is also good, you may be able to mix the title of elite Shinobi with a small probability before retirement, and then retire, which is already talented, hard-working, and luck is not too bad.
People like Naruto, Li Luo, Ningji, and Sasuke are all talented types, with luck, inheritance, strong masters, and crazy hard work, but even such an outstanding person, if he is unlucky for a while, he will die on the battlefield of the ninja world.
In the original Hokage, Hinata Ninji's original fate trajectory was like this, but this time, because of the influence of Naruto/Zhu Peng's life, his fate has changed, at least Ninji's father Hinata Hinata did not sacrifice for the village, and Ninji's temperament did not become gloomy, and now he is still a generous and gentle brother who protects his sister.
