Chapter 501: Naruto who was "forced to submit".
Not only where Markey stayed, but also where he frequented, and the approximate range of activities he had now, were clearly marked...... It's really worthy of the grandfather of the day, and the consideration and preparation in this regard are much more thoughtful than mine. β
After enjoying the meatballs and obtaining the "remaining change from the payment of the bill" from the hands of the shop owner, the problem of Marki's whereabouts, which was the most troublesome to Naruto, was solved with the help of the information passed to Naruto like charcoal in the snow of the three generations of Hokage. So much so that the vague sense of uneasiness in Naruto's heart began to ease a little, while carefully putting away this information. As if he remembered something, he turned his head sideways, looked at the figure of the weasel who had not yet left, and asked thoughtfully.
"Then again...... Itachi-san, you don't seem to be surprised at all by Grandpa Hisashi's arrangement...... Could it be that you already knew that Grandpa Hizai had already arranged for manpower to watch out for our 'reliable allies'? β
"Of course, after all, I have the same 'future memory' as you do."
In the face of Naruto's incomprehensible questioning, Itachi, who was standing leisurely, still showed a calm and unhurried appearance. Then he raised his hand and tapped his head with his fingers, and responded warmly as if he had to answer a question.
"So, I'm more curious, why did you not know about the arrangement of the three generations of Hokage-sama until now...... Could it be that so far, you have never thought about itβwhy in your world, the third generation of Hokage-sama is not surprised at all by the betrayal of the Sand Hidden Village? β
"Huh? I thought that most of the causes of the Zhongnin exam were the pot where Orochimaru fanned the flames behind his back, where would you think so much......"
As soon as Itachi's words fell, Naruto, who was still a little puzzled, suddenly became enlightened as if he had received a key clue to answer the doubts in his heart. Then he raised his hand and scratched his head lightly in a slightly embarrassed manner, and at the same time, his confidence plummeted, and he muttered unwillingly and aggrievedly.
"Moreover, in our world, as the original author, Kishimoto eats books, has not been once or twice...... How could I have imagined that in such a one-stroke ninja who doesn't even have a name, what kind of trickery can be seen......"
Between the words, just as Naruto thought......
Although the relevant arrangements of the three generations of Hokage, Itachi was not specifically notified. But with the same ability to "spoil cheating", Itachi was able to rely on the difference in focus and the intelligence that was already far superior to Naruto's, and was keenly aware of the atmosphere of war that gradually spread in the middle ninja exam. And in that careful reflection, it didn't take long for me to realize that something was wrong.
After all, in the original plot, although Moonlight Blast, because of tracking Yakushidou's actions, accidentally discovered important information about the collusion between Otoshinobi Village and Sand Hidden Village, which was about to be detrimental to the village. But before he could report this information to the village leaders, he was killed by Ma Ji himself due to the significant gap in strength.
Because of this, it is worth pondering that the body of Moonlight Storm was found the next day. The three generations of Hokage, who obviously failed to get intelligence feedback, but when he convened the elite ninjas and held an emergency meeting, he should have been the three generations of Hokage who had no evidence, but he acquiesced to the nervous subordinates, and proposed that the Sand Hidden Village had joined forces with the Ninja Village, which is not only alarmist, but also easy to affect the unwarranted conjecture between the two ninja villages!
In this way, in Itachi's mind, a conjecture was drawn......
That is, the betrayal of the three generations of Hokage to the Sand Hidden Village had been expected in advance. It's just that because there is no substantive evidence, Fang didn't announce it in person. Even with the news of the death of Moonlight Blaster in the original plot, he immediately locked the murderer of Moonlight Blaster on the two forces of Sand Hidden Village and Sound Ninja Village, as if on the night of Moonlight Blast's sacrifice, he was the ninja who was personally present and witnessed the whole process, and dared to speak boldly without scruples. I'm afraid it's also a means to give subtle hints and warnings to the elite ninjas who are gathered in place of himself who is inconvenient to speak directly, with the prior arrangement and acquiescence of the three generations of Hokage!
"Then again...... Now that Maki's whereabouts have been investigated, if he wants to control Maki, I'm afraid Grandpa Hizai will have it a long time ago......"
In this way, Naruto's impression of the third generation of Hokage, who was squinting and smiling all day long, and seemed to have no scheming to speak of, had a new understanding again. For the true intentions hidden behind the key information that the three generations of Hokage passed to him in the first time, they can also guess it. Even with Naruto's original intention to protect the lives of his partners from the slightest harm in this middle ninja exam, he used the hands of the ninjas of Sand Hidden Village to let those villagers who could only speak cool words also taste the sour experience of the separation of wives and the destruction of their families. So much so that between raising his hand on his forehead, Naruto shook his head and sighed rather helplessly, while muttering a little reluctantly.
"In other words, Grandpa Hizai has already planned to leave this incident to me to deal with...... I was going to paddle the water so that those idiots would have a long memory. Now it seems that it is completely out of play......"
After all, Naruto knew very well in his heart that after the sacrifice of his parents, the three generations of Hokage, who had re-instated, out of guilt, completely inherited Naruto's father's thoughts of treating everyone in the village as his own family and doing his best to protect them.
In this case, although there is no kindness between him and Naruto, it can even be said that on weekdays, the group of stupid villagers who have no less enmity, for Naruto, even if he dies more, he will not feel the slightest pain or anger, but he can't help the pleasure in his heart, and the possibility of applauding is greater......
But if there are really any huge casualties, even if the three generations of Hokage don't say it, it is estimated that they will feel very sad and disappointed. So much so that Naruto, who was still thinking that the resources at hand would only be used to ensure the lives of his partners and would not be threatened in any way, in order not to make this old man who treats himself as his own grandson and loves and spoils him sad, he can only stop the conspiracy of Sand Hidden Village as much as possible while canceling this plan.
"Sure enough...... The more you intersect with the characters in this world, the more timid and limited you will become...... Forget it, who made me 'Naruto Uzumaki' now......"
Fortunately, because of the similarities between protecting the lives and safety of his partners and ensuring the safety of the Konoha Ninja Village, Naruto not only reorganized the complex thoughts in his heart after a short period of entanglement, but also quickly conceived and deduced on the basis of the original plan, and was able to deal with various emergencies.
"Now that Grandpa Rizai has decided, he wants to leave this matter to me to deal with. So, let's let that guy Markey talk for a while longer......"
Between the words, Naruto knew in his heart that in front of that group of stupid villagers who would only follow the trend and shout, causing them to be extremely easily misled by public opinion, if he didn't come up with substantial evidence, even if he caught Maki, it was probably impossible for them to believe that this was a signal that Sand Hidden Village was about to start a war against Konoha Village. On the contrary, it is believed that the Konoha high-level is no longer satisfied with the status quo of peaceful development, and is trying to provoke a war between the two ninja villages again under a false pretext. And in the case of not knowing the truth, the opportunity was spotted by the Sand Hidden Village, and in a deliberate way of showing weakness, to spread rumors, inducing this group of guys who have not achieved enough things to do more than defeat, and the possibility of brainless protest to the three generations of Hokage is greater!
Because of this, in Naruto's eyes, even with the help of the three generations of Hokage, he has been able to determine Maki's whereabouts, and his own strength is enough to easily subdue and capture Maki, who has not yet reached the level of the shadow. But when the time is not yet ripe, if you act recklessly, I am afraid that all you can get will be to startle the snake, or even lose your wife and soldiers, these two kinds of blood-loss development that have no profit at all!
After all, not to mention for the time being, under the influence of the butterfly effect, did the Sand Hidden Village, which dared to challenge the Konoha Ninja Village, really send only four people from Maki and his party as the internal response to the war, as in the original plot......
You must know that Markey can become my Airo's instructor, and in the original plot, he is even more controversial, and he must have his superiority in supporting and cultivating my Airo into the fifth generation of Fengying. Even with the courage to go deep into the intelligence alone in the Konoha Ninja Village, which has been re-regarded as an enemy in the Sand Hidden Village at this moment, it must have been prepared from the beginning, and he did not plan to get out of the Konoha Ninja Village alive, so as to swear to defend the confidential information of the Sand Hidden Village!
In this case, it just proves a sentence that Naruto had heard in his previous life......
That's ......
The soft ones are afraid of the hard, the hard ones are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal ones are afraid of the dead!
In the final analysis, although Markey's strength, in Naruto's eyes, may not be considered a strong combat power. But in the eyes of ordinary people, Ma Ji, who is the elite ninja of Sand Hidden Village, is enough to become an unattainable challenge target for them to spend their entire lives! So much so that at this moment, Maki is like Naruto's previous life, with frequent suicide attacks. If it is not handled properly, it is very likely that in the state of the dog jumping off the wall, it will unscrupulously release the more lethal high-level ninjutsu. And then it has a bad impact on the Konoha Ninja Village, which is now densely populated, and it is accompanied by an accident with heavy casualties!
"Sure enough...... If I have too much intersection with the people of this world...... When you start moving, you will become more and more constrained......"
In the face of this consequence that can be imagined with a little thought, he sensed the expectation of the three generations of Hokage, and had to take into account the safety of the villagers' lives, and for Naruto's original plan, that is, to find a way to guide his valued companions to a safe place in advance, so as not to be affected. Let yourself be free, while expecting Markey to kill and help himself out of the pent-up resentment in his heart, while attacking Markey without scruples - for example, it is obviously no longer applicable. On the basis of the original plan, while meditating on the modification, he muttered to himself half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first...... Anyway, I'm in Shayin Village, and I've long left a teleportation mark...... Or, taking advantage of the last round of exams, before the official start, there is still a month's interval of preparation time, I will go directly to the Sand Hidden Village and solve the four generations of Kazekage? β
Of course, although Naruto, who was troublesome, said so...... But unless it comes to the point of last resort, Naruto, who has no grievances with the fourth generation of Kazekage, has no intention of putting this crazy idea into reality.
After all, let's not mention it for the time being, will it have any uncontrollable chain reaction on the follow-up plot after doing so......
No matter what you say, the fourth generation of the wind shadow is also a real shadow-level powerhouse! So much so that if Naruto wants to succeed, he will inevitably make a lot of noise. In other words, in the process of action, whether you succeed or not, you have to risk attracting the attention of the organization! Not to mention, the fourth generation of the wind shadow himself, no matter how ruthless and ruthless he is in terms of being a father, he can't change the fact that he is the biological father of the red panda!
In this way, the original intention of his actions is to change the tragic fate of his partners and make up for the regrets of his partners, so that he is full of anticipation that in the past ten years, the red panda father and son, who have not communicated and gotten along with each other, can release their previous suspicions, it is naturally impossible for Naruto, who has been able to release his previous suspicions, after I Ara, lost his mother since he was a child, and was taken by his trusted best friend, this kind of immoral thing!
What's more, the Konoha Ninja Village, which is in a state of rapid development, has significantly improved both the economy and the overall strength of the ninja over the years. But it is precisely because of this that the Konoha Ninja Village, which quietly returned to the head of the five ninja villages, inevitably attracted the attention and fear of other ninja villages......
If at this juncture, he killed the four generations of Kazekage, so that he was extraordinarily strong...... Naruto could imagine just thinking on his toes, and it was estimated that the other ninja villages who knew about the changes in the Sand Hidden Village would be misunderstood as the Konoha Ninja Village, which was no longer satisfied with the existing atmosphere of peaceful development, without knowing the truth, and began to make an example of the preparations for the annexation of other ninja villages! And when he instinctively worried about whether his village would become the next target of the Konoha Ninja Village, everyone became endangered. In order to fight against the increasingly powerful Konoha Ninja Village, other ninja villages formed a ninja alliance to wage war against the Konoha Ninja Village. The Xiao organization, which was already trying to provoke wars in various countries, reaped the benefits of the fisherman in this state of bewilderment. In the end, he gave the black absolute hidden behind the scenes.,Made a wedding dress for nothing.,Bewitching what he fancied.,Obito, who has been carefully induced so far.,Successfully cast the infinite moon reading.,And the big barrel of wood Kaguya sealed in the moon.,Successfully rescued.,It's not an impossible thing to happen!
"I feel that I am losing money when I am passively beaten, and if I want to fight back, I have to pay attention to proportion...... This feeling is really aggrieved. I kind of understand, before the day of the grandfather, why did he behave so 'weak', is it really better to have more than one thing...... If we look at it this way, we should not be able to count on this trick of resolving conflicts and disputes from the root cause of the problem for the time being......"
Thinking of this, the playful smile on Naruto's face froze slightly, and then collapsed instantly. Then he clasped his hands between his arms, and tapped his arms with his index fingers, while muttering to himself in that rather helpless tone. And then in the middle of his mouth, Naruto, who had a flash of inspiration in his mind, opened his eyes in astonishment as if he suddenly remembered something important.
"Huh? Wait...... Wait a minute......?! β
"If I'm guessing correctly, the root of this contradiction ...... It doesn't seem to be because the four generations of Kazekage are too belligerent, or rather, they are simply unhappy with the Konoha Ninja Village, and they want to find trouble by killing themselves. It's just to make the Sand Hidden Village, which has become a fool's name, which has led to frequent exploitation and deduction of income, and even life has become more and more difficult, has the possibility of continuing to survive in this world, so that it has to be ......"
"In this way, if I can alleviate the troubles faced by the Sand Hidden Village a little, or even completely solve them......"
"No matter how you calculate it, it's a battle that won't be won...... Isn't there no need to fight?! β
