"Sarutobi, what do you mean by that?"
Homura Mitokado spoke up immediately. If Hiruzen had mentioned the name of Minato Namikaze to them before, they would naturally not take it to heart.
But now, no one would measure Minato as just an ordinary ninja.
A ninja who is eleven years old can play such a huge role on the battlefield.
With the end of the war, when he grows up, his significance to Konoha will be no less than that of the Nine-Tails.
The tailed beasts exist as a balance of power between countries, and at this time, Minato has already shown the potential to have such value.
This is the assessment in the hearts of the two council member.
Minato Namikaze is worthy of such an assessment.
"If possible, I hope that the two council member can understand the relationship between Minato and Kushina. What I mean is that Kushina is an extremely special existence for Minato. This is also what Mito-sama told me before she died." Hiruzen said.
"Mito-sama!?" Homura and Koharu were confused and didn't know what he meant.
Sandaime added: "It will be absolutely no problem to tell Minato about the Nine-Tails, because this child will never do anything to hurt Kushina."
The reason why the information about the Nine-Tails is managed so strictly is that it is afraid of being known by the enemy country.
Kushina is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and this information is related to Kushina's safety. Minato naturally cannot leak it.
Although the two council did not know the meaning, they felt the decisiveness of Hiruzen 's words. After thinking for a moment, they nodded.
Danzo on the side had a very low look in his eyes, because he knew that the other two also recognized Minato.
Minato is Jiraiya's disciple and Hiruzen e's grand disciple.
The recognition of the two people for Minato is not a good thing for Danzo.
After getting the answers from Koharu and Homura, Hiruzen looked at Danzo on the side and said, "What about you?"
"It's up to you." Danzo said.
Hiruzen chuckled and said, "You should also prepare yourself. The peace envoys from the Land of Wind have arrived at the residence of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire."
Although the ninja troops of Konoha have withdrawn, this war is not only about the two villages of Konoha and Sand Village.
Behind them are the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire, and as the defeated party, the former must pay some price.
This is the unwritten rule of this world. Moreover, the performance of the Konoha troops on the front line has already strike fear to the Daimyo and the high-level officials of the Land of Wind. The ninja village is the armed force of a great country, and although the loss of the Sand Village this time is not a devastating blow, it has already seriously damaged its vitality.
Therefore, no matter what price the Land of Wind pays, it does not want to provoke the dissatisfaction of the Land of Fire and Konoha again.
A few days later, the Land of Earth.
In the desolate rock wall, the troops of the Cloud Village are stationed.
In a tent, when the brother of the commander-in-chief, Sandaime Raikage, read the intelligence from the village in his hand, his face was shocked.
In the tent, when the others saw his expression change, they were all slightly puzzled.
Blue B threw the information onto the rock in front of him. C picked it up and read it for a while, and his pupils shrank.
"Cease-fire!?" He exclaimed immediately.
"What?" The others were puzzled when they heard it. They were clearly in an advantageous position in this war, so why did they want to cease fire?
However, when they saw the content of the battle report that C pressed on the rock again, their faces were filled with shock.
The Konoha troops that invaded the Land of Wind caused heavy casualties to the Sand Ninja troops led by Chiyo.
Two strong ninja from the Sand Ninja Village, Saburo and Sunae, died on the battlefield.
These two people have a strong reputation in the ninja world.
Their deaths obviously shocked everyone. After all, these two people are the son and daughter-in-law of the commander Chiyo.
Killing such two strong ninja under her nose is a great feat.
Since the battle between the three Sannins and Hanzo, the ninjas of Konoha shocked all countries for the second time.
The Land of Wind has already negotiated peace with the Land of Fire. Under this, even if they have the upper hand, it is not a wise move to continue fighting with the Land of Earth.
"Namikaze Minato."
In addition to being shocked, many people were muttering about the name that appeared again in the battle report.
Last time, they didn't care much, but this time, it was different
because Saburo died at the hands of him and Sakumo.
in the report this Konoha ninja named Namikaze Minato is a teenager who is only eleven years old.
"Is it really him?" C looked horrified. He could not imagine that the Minato mentioned twice in the battle report was the same person he had seen in the Land of Hot Spring.
Beside him, a dark-skinned young man, who would become the Fourth Raikage in the future, also looked shock.
Obviously, this time, no one could ignore the name of Minato in the battle report.
At the same time, they had a deep fear of the current Konoha.
The three Konoha Sannins, and Sakumo, who was gradually given the title of "Konoha White Fang" in the ninja world.
This name came from the Iwagakure ninjas that fall before, because Sakumo had white hair and a white chakra short sword in his hand.
When the short sword shines, it is the time for this "Konoha White Fang" to show his power.
Tsuchiguki of Iwagakure and Saburo of Sand Village both died under this white short sword.
Since the death of the Second Hokage at the end of Ninja War I, Konoha has fallen into a downturn, until the rise of Sandaime Hokage, the ninja professor, it has improved.
After Ninja 2nd Ninja War, Konoha once again shock other countries under the reputation of the three sannins and Konoha White Fang.
"Iwagakure troops have been retreating without a fight these two days. It seems that they should have received the news a long time ago and are waiting for us to retreat." Blue B narrowed his eyes. The intelligence system of Iwagakure has always been slightly stronger than that of other ninja countries.
This all becuse on the leadership of the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki.
"Send the order down, pack up, retreat, and return to the Cloud Village."
He continued, with some dissatisfaction in his tone, but this was the order of the Third Raikage, and it was also a decision that had to be made under the current situation.
"Yes!" A Cloud Ninja responded and rushed out of the tent.
The expressions of the rest of the people in the tent were also dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do.
"Namikaze Minato."
The future Fourth Raikage, A murmured this name, and there was a meaningful fluctuation in his eyes.
The Land of Rain.
In front of the Konoha troops who were ready to go, Jiraiya picked up his bag and turned in another direction.
"Jiraiya, are you really not going back to the village?" Uchiha Kai looked at the back that was about to go away and asked.
Jiraiya turned his eyes sideways, smiled, and said: "You go back first, I will continue to stay here and gather some intel, as a little atonement for my sins."
Swish!
After saying that, he quickly move and climbed onto the cliff in front of him, which was several dozen meters high.
Among the trees on the cliff, three thin figures carrying bags on their backs walked out.
Jiraiya suddenly came in front of the three people and said with a smile: "Let's go, Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato!"
"Yes, teacher!"
The three children answered in unison, and then followed Jiraiya and walked slowly into the woods.
Not long after that, the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire, the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning successively negotiated peace, and peace treaties were established among the four. However,
the Land of Water, one of the five major ninja villages far overseas, seemed to have fallen into silence and did not make any moves in this war.
But, at this point, the Second Ninja War was declared over!
