Under this rather severe situation, Konoha Village has really reached the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted. It can be said that there is no choice but to hold its breath and start mobilizing for war.
Konoha Village is like a lonely boat in the raging waves, surrounded by dangers and dark tides.
You know, in the face of such a situation, you must not show the slightest timidity.
In this world of the law of the jungle and the law of the jungle, full of calculations, once you show weakness, it is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
Konoha Village knows this truth well. Once it is timid at such a critical moment, it will inevitably face the terrible consequences of being surrounded by other forces to attack.
These forces are like a group of hungry jackals. They have been waiting for Konoha to reveal his flaws, and once the opportunity arises, they will rush up without hesitation.
This is undoubtedly a catastrophe for Konoha Village. It will cause this once prosperous village to suffer an unprecedented catastrophe. Countless ninjas and civilians will lose their lives, and the foundation that Konoha Village's ancestors have worked so hard to build will be destroyed. Once.
Recalling the Second Ninja World War, Konoha was almost in such a situation at the time.
It was a dark time, and Konoha seemed to be under a huge shadow.
The forces of all parties are like a group of greedy vultures, circling around Konoha, staring at each other, and may launch a deadly attack at any time.
This feeling is like a high-hanging sword of Damocles, which may fall at any time, which is really terrible.
In those days, Konoha's ninjas held on to their posts day and night with a heavy mood, and their nerves were extremely tense.
The people were also frightened, afraid that the war would suddenly spread to their side.
So this time, even if such a situation could be avoided, they desperately wanted to avoid it.
After all, no one wants to experience the danger of nine deaths and one life again.
This kind of danger is like the edge of an abyss, as long as you take the wrong step, you will be shattered to pieces.
Konoha's ninjas no longer want to see their relatives and friends lose their lives in the war, and they don't want to see their villages reduced to ruins. Ordinary people also long for a peaceful life and don't want to be shrouded in the fear of war. Everyone wants to try their best to maintain the existing stable situation.
As a result, against the background of such a weird atmosphere, the entire Ninja world seemed to be pushed by an invisible hand, and they began to arm themselves one after another.
Each village seemed to have received some kind of mysterious signal at the same time, and they all became nervous.
As large as the powerful ninja village, their senior executives are in full swing in the dark conference room discussing battle plans, redeploying ninja teams, and stockpiling food and weapons; as small as those remote small ninja villages, they are also strengthening daily patrols and training young ninja reserve forces.
Every village is filled with tension, as if a huge storm is about to sweep in, and the calm at this moment is only a short period of tranquility before the storm.
This kind of calm is like the suppressed silence before the storm, and dark clouds are constantly gathering on the horizon, indicating that a catastrophe is about to come.
What is shocking is that this kind of tense atmosphere has penetrated into all corners, even those schools and peaceful villages that should have been far away from the smoke of war are now shrouded in this kind of tension, and there is an atmosphere of depression and indifference everywhere.
In the school, the school playground, which used to be full of laughter and laughter, is now empty, only the lonely swing is shaking in the breeze, making a slight "crunch" sound, as if it is also telling of this loneliness and fear.
The children were detained at home by their parents and did not dare to let them run around.The classroom, which was originally full of childlike fun, has now become extremely quiet. The children are shrinking in the corners, and the shiny eyes of the past are full of fear at this moment.
The villagers in the village are no longer chatting and working leisurely as usual. Everyone has a solemn look on their faces and is in a hurry.
They lowered their heads as they walked, thinking about their thoughts, and looked up at the outside of the village from time to time, their eyes full of worry and vigilance.
That kind of gaze is like a frightened rabbit alert to the surrounding movement, even a little wind and grass movement can make their nerves tense.
According to the conventional development trend in the past, in this tense environment where the whole people are full of soldiers and the vegetation is full of soldiers, I am afraid that various undesirable phenomena in Konoha village will increase sharply.
Like bullying incidents, because people's inner fears and anxieties have nowhere to vent, those who have a tendency to bully themselves are likely to bully the weak even more severely.
They will look for a twisted pleasure in this tense atmosphere to show their strength.
And those weak people who are bullied can only endure silently and dare not resist, because they are afraid that they will cause more trouble.Moreover, the social strife brought about by this kind of restless emotions will also reach an unprecedented peak.
Families may fight fiercely because of a little friction, maybe just because of the distribution of a little food or an unintentional word will cause a fierce quarrel, or even a fight.
The contradictions between neighbors will also be infinitely magnified. It used to be just a small contradiction that disliked each other, but now it may completely erupt because of a trivial matter, blaming each other.
There may also be various barriers and conflicts between villagers and ninjas. Ninjas may accidentally disturb the lives of villagers during the stressful preparation period, and villagers may treat ninjas badly because of their inner fear, which can easily lead to conflicts.
Fortunately, however, the situation is a bit different now.Because the newly appointed consultant and agent of Aizen Soosuke began to vigorously implement his own implementation policy and related mutual assistance policies.
Under his efforts, the atmosphere in Konoha Village is still in a relatively good state.
Although the fear and worry of war still inevitably exist in the depths of everyone's heart, at least on the surface, the entire village still maintains a relatively harmonious and stable situation.
Nevertheless, the kind of anxiety that no one can completely erase is like a dark cloud of depression, floating heavily over the entire village.
It seems to carry an invisible pressure, enveloping every corner of the village, whether it is the streets and alleys, or every household, can feel the existence of this emotion.
At this moment when it has been confirmed that a war is about to start, and the war is imminent but has not yet officially started, that kind of silence is the most unbearable.
This kind of silence is not a quiet tranquility, but a silence full of depression and uneasiness.
It's like the calm sea before the storm, seemingly calm, but in fact the dark tide is surging.People in the village, whether they are old people or children, men or women, can perceive the tension that permeates the air.
Everyone no longer laughed and laughed as usual, and the conversation in the streets and alleys became scarce, and only a few low sighs could be heard occasionally.
Everyone knew that the war was coming, so they all began to silently stick to their posts and perform their duties.The ninjas have stepped up their training, and they can be seen busy at various training venues around the village.
They either practice ninjutsu or train for physical strength and endurance, and they are drenched in sweat and their clothes are not aware of it.
Ordinary villagers are not idle either. Some people are busy hoarding supplies and their homes are filled with food and daily necessities. Others assist the ninjas in the construction of fortifications and carry stones, wood and other materials. Although the atmosphere is tense, everyone is carrying out various tasks in an orderly manner.
The silent but somewhat restless atmosphere began to spread slowly among Konoha like an invisible mist, and even in this atmosphere there was a trace of imperceptible fanaticism.
This kind of fanaticism is not blind optimism, it is more like a kind of persistent belief in one's own village, a kind of firm determination to still believe that Konoha can win in a desperate situation.
That stems from the trust in Konoha's strong strength over the years, as well as the confidence in the powerful ninjas in the village.
This confidence is rooted in the hearts of every Konoha villager and has been passed down from generation to generation.
It's not that no one firmly believes that Konoha is the best in the world, and he is so confident that he will be able to use the power of his village to fight against the other four villages and defeat them all.
This kind of atmosphere that Konoha is the best in the world not only exists among ordinary villagers, but also among those ninja groups that are fighting forces.
In the tavern in the village, this is the hottest topic.
From time to time, some ninjas can be seen sitting around the table with wine glasses on the table. They are drinking heavily while loudly proclaiming Konoha's power.
It looked like a winning ticket was in hand, as if as long as they Konoha went all out, there would be no enemies that could not be overcome.
After drinking, they will blush and excitedly tell about Konoha's glorious records in the past. The stories of those victories are like shining stars, dotted in Konoha's long history.
Fortunately, whether it is Hokage, consultants, or elders, their emotions are kept very sane and normal.
Hokage's tall and majestic figure always shuttled through important places in the village, paying close attention to the development of the situation.
The same is true of the consultants and elders. They repeatedly discussed coping strategies, with long-term and calm eyes.
They know that the current situation is full of crises. While actively maintaining the normal order of the village, they are also doing their best to maintain the stability and improvement of the public opinion environment of the entire village.
They clearly knew that once the public opinion environment got out of control, Konoha would fall into chaos, which would undoubtedly be a self-severing arm for Konoha, who was about to face war.
Hokage will hold villagers' conferences from time to time to appease the emotions of the people, while consultants and elders will go deep into the ninja team and villagers to correct some overly radical or pessimistic remarks.
It's just that in this special period, as a consultant, Soosuke Aizen is naturally very busy.
All kinds of affairs in the village came to him like a tide, from the deployment of military strategy to the deployment of materials, from the training arrangements of ninjas to the pacification of the villagers, everything required him to carefully consider and arrange carefully.
His already tired face is now even more haggard, his eyes are bloodshot, but his gaze is still firm.
He holds various meetings every day to communicate and coordinate with people from all walks of life.
In terms of military strategic deployment, he must formulate the best combat plan based on the enemy's situation and Konoha's strength; the deployment of materials must ensure that Konoha has sufficient food, medicine, and weapons and equipment during the war; ninja training arrangements are even more important. It is necessary to formulate suitable training programs for different levels of ninjas to improve their combat effectiveness; the villagers' appeasement work should not be underestimated, and the villagers should be kept calm on the eve of the war.
In this case, many of the important tasks of ninjutsu and related techniques that need to be developed naturally fell on his cheap son Kakashi.
After all, Jingling pretending is a strategic technique that Konoha attaches great importance to. It is related to Konoha's defense and combat effectiveness on the battlefield. On the eve of such a special war, it is an important project that cannot be given up at will anyway. .
Kakashi knew the importance of this task well, and he devoted almost all of his time to the research and development of Jingling costumes.
His studio is full of various materials and experimental equipment, and the walls are covered with design drawings of Jingling costumes, which are brightly lit day and night.
And today is the last day for Hagi Kakashi to test the improved version of the Jingling outfit. This day is of great significance to Konoha.
This is an important moment that the whole village is paying attention to, because the success of the Jingling outfit may have a significant impact on the upcoming war situation.
The entire Konoha village was filled with a feeling of tension and expectation. Although the villagers were busy with their own affairs, they were silently praying for Kakashi's test.
At this moment, looking at the Shangnin and Zhongnin who were surrounded by the three inner and three outer layers, the Hagiki Kakashi, who had successfully won the Zhongnin qualification with his own strong strength only a week ago, was standing calmly in the center of the playground. In the center of the playground.
He stood quietly like that, upright like a lighthouse standing proudly in the center of the storm, exuding a confident and resolute temperament.
His hair fluttered gently in the breeze, and his iconic white hair and black eye mask highlighted his distinctive temperament.
His hands hung on both sides, his body was slightly straight, as if the whole world was still around him.
Immediately afterwards, Kakashi began to run the chakra in his body. As his breath gradually stabilized, the powerful chakra power was like a surging blue tide, slowly spreading along the blood vessels that had been carefully corrected and transformed by the medical ninja.
The process was so smooth and orderly, his expression was still calm, and only through his slightly frowning brows could he be seen that he was concentrating.
The induction fluid applied to his skin showed sharp and angular marks on the surface of his body due to the flow of chakra.
These seals are like a kind of mysterious runes, exuding a faint blue light, as if they are the external manifestation of the power of Jingling.
This kind of light is not dazzling, but reveals a mysterious aura, which seems to be telling the powerful energy contained in the Jingling outfit.
Compared with the Jingling costume developed by Lanyan that can only be simply attached to the surface of the body, the Jingling costume developed by Kakashi is obviously unique.
The blue light emitted by Kakashi's improved version of the Jingling outfit was very strong, and it even began to spread on the clothes gradually.The first is Konoha's iconic vest. The originally ordinary fabric seems to be ignited by a blue flame at this moment, and it begins to show a light blue light.
This kind of light is like a flowing lake, flowing slowly on the vest, making the vest look full of vitality.
Immediately afterwards, the leggings on his legs and the forehead protection on his forehead also began to show a light blue light in the shape of ripples like static blood defense.
This kind of ripple is like life, fluctuating slightly, as if breathing, demonstrating a powerful force.
It seems to resonate with the chakra in Kakashi's body, and the two echo each other and strengthen each other.
"...I'm ready."
Kakashi looked at the research ninjas who were operating various precision instruments around the venue, and his whole body was filled with the mysterious aura brought about by the engraving of the Jingling costume. He just nodded calmly.
His face didn't have the slightest waves, it was like a quiet deep pool, making it difficult for people to spy on his true thoughts.
His eyes were calm and deep, and he seemed to have seen through everything, whether it was the upcoming test or the possible war.
His self-confidence is not blind, but stems from a firm belief in his own abilities and the results of spiritual improvement.
And the ninjas in charge of the test did not dare to neglect at all, they knew that this was an important test related to the future of Konoha Village.
They were careful in every movement, and soon they quickly and carefully debugged all kinds of complicated data, with a focused expression as if they were treating rare treasures.
They carefully checked the parameters of each instrument, and then raised their hands high to the crowd in the field.
Just as they raised their hands, a clear and simple voice of instruction came from the horn.
'The thirteenth Jingling outfit test has officially begun.'
'The first stage is the escape test.'
With this order, those Zhongnin who had been waiting in the surrounding venue for a long time and had already been gearing up did not hesitate to start to seal the seal in an instant.
Their fingers are flying quickly like smart butterflies, and their movements are skillful and rapid. It seems that at this moment, they have maximized the results of their usual training.
Then he called out all kinds of powerful ninjutsu in his mouth.
"Fire escape, Hao Fireball!"A Zhongnin yelled, and saw a huge, blazing fireball spewing out of his mouth.
The fireball roared towards Kakashi, and the air along the way was distorted by its high temperature.
The fireball exudes a dazzling red light, like a little sun, billowing heat waves are blowing on the face, and the ground everywhere it goes is baked dry and cracked and smoky.
"Water escape, water chaos!"
Another Zhongnin had his hands imprinted, and in an instant, a surging stream of water rushed towards Kakashi's location like a galloping horse.
The drops of water in the current splashed all over, like countless sharp hidden weapons.
The sound of the rushing water was like thunder, surging and surging, containing a huge impact force, as if to overwhelm everything that was blocking in front.
"Lei Dun, go!"
There was also a sharp light in the eyes of Zhongren, and with his shout, a strong thunder and lightning meandered on the ground like a long snake, rushing towards Kakashi.Wherever he went, the ground was scorched black by electric shocks, and bursts of green smoke rose.
The thunder and lightning flickered with dazzling blue light, sizzling, as if telling of its power, it was chilling.
"Wind escape, a big breakthrough!"
After the last Nakanobu quickly formed a seal with his hands, he blew out a strong wind.
This violent wind is like a roaring dragon, carrying a huge impact force and powerful cutting force, sweeping towards Kakashi.
The violent wind howled past, flying sand and stones, trees were blown upside down, and powerful forces seemed to be able to tear the sky apart.
The first round of four types of ninjutsu coverage strikes instantly turned the entire scene into a chaotic scene, and thick smoke rose everywhere, completely flooding Kakashi's location.
The thick smoke billowed, covering people's sight, and they could only hear the sounds of various ninjutsu collisions and eruptions coming from inside.
And in this chaotic scene like a doomsday battlefield, the orders in the radio horn are still being issued coldly and mercilessly, as if completely unaffected by the chaotic scene in front of him.
The voice was firm and clear, and it stood out in the noisy battlefield environment, like a bright light in the dark, guiding the entire test to continue.
