Naruto Under the Bamboo Forest

Chapter 73 Return to the Village!

The strongest Abby team in the Hidden Cloud Village failed to keep Minato Namikaze?

Soon, the news of the battle between Minato Namikaze and the Abby team spread. The battle between Minato Namikaze and the Abby team even overshadowed the attack and defense of the God Rock Valley that took place later.

In the previous battle with the Hidden Rock Village, Minato Namikaze was considered to have made a lot of headlines, and he had defended many defense lines that were on the verge of being lost. But the strong always need another powerful person to set off, just like the three ninjas and the demigod of the ninja world, Hanzo. In the previous battles, Minato had always lacked a powerful opponent. But this time, the powerful Abby team became Minato's foil.

This battle made the name of Yellow Flash resound throughout the countries and was recognized by ninjas from all countries. Each ninja village began to order that when encountering Minato Namikaze, they could abandon the mission and retreat directly, and it would not be considered a mission failure. Minato Namikaze became the second person to enjoy this honor after Mu Shimo, the White Fang Flag of Konoha.

In July of the 46th year of Konoha, the Hidden Cloud Village attacked the God Rock Valley. The Konoha ninjas of Zewang Mountain provided timely support, and the Hidden Cloud Village had to give up the attack after suffering huge casualties, and Konoha won another victory.

When the news of the victory was passed back to Konoha, the villagers were excited again. The world of Naruto is a world that worships heroes, and only strong people are worth following.

The two consecutive victories on the front line of the Moon Country made the Konoha villagers, who were originally in a low mood, begin to regain their confidence. The villagers began to regard the commander of the Moon Country front line, Minato Namikaze, as the hope of saving the village. And under the instruction of the Third Hokage, Konoha Village soon promoted Minato Namikaze as a role model for all Konoha ninjas, and even many ordinary villagers in Konoha felt that only Minato Namikaze could lead the village out of its current predicament.

Of course, with Minato's love for the village and his contributions, he deserves some praise. For a while, the voices for Minato to succeed the fourth Hokage became louder and louder, while Orochimaru, the popular candidate for the successor of Hokage at the beginning of the war, began to be ignored. And this is exactly what the third generation wanted to see.

Just when Konoha's situation in the Kingdom of the Moon was very good, a shocking news came. Iwagakure, which had been maintaining a peaceful confrontation with Kumogakure before, took advantage of the fact that the Kumogakure Village shifted the center of the war to the Kingdom of the Moon, which was fighting Konoha, and unexpectedly transferred its main force to the battlefield with Kumogakure Village without knowing when. Tens of thousands of Iwagakure raided the Kumogakure ninjas in the border area.

For a while, the Kumogakure Village was defeated and was about to be attacked into the mainland of the Kingdom of Lightning.

Later, there was news that the third generation Raikage was besieged by the Iwagakure Village. In order to let his companions escape, the third generation Raikage fought alone against the Iwagakure ninjas with as many as 10,000 ninjas. He fought alone and led away the enemy. In order to buy time for his companions to escape, he persisted in fighting for three days and three nights and died of exhaustion.

Ye Yue Ai, who was at the front line of the Moon Country, had to bear the pain of inheriting the position of the fourth generation Raikage, and then led the Cloud Hidden Army at the front line of the Moon Country to turn around and resist the attack of the Rock Hidden Army.

When this news reached Liu Yu's ears, Liu Yu couldn't help but muttered "old fox". I was still wondering why the Rock Hidden Village didn't launch an attack when Konoha was withdrawing the power of the Grass Country? It turned out that the Rock Hidden Village also transferred its main force.

The so-called politics and war are like this, full of various transactions on the table and under the table. She didn't believe that there was no trick between Konoha's transfer of the military forces confronting the Rock Hidden Village on the front line of the Grass Country to the Moon Country and the Rock Hidden Village's transfer of its main force to the Cloud Hidden Village.

However, this series of changes is a good thing for Konoha after all. The pressure on the Grass Country front has been greatly reduced, and the Moon Country front can be said to have won a "great victory". Now Konoha has begun to withdraw its troops, and has no intention of further attacking the Thunder Country with the Rock Hidden Village.

On the one hand, after many years of war, Konoha has already developed a strong war-weariness, and what the villagers need at this moment is peace. On the other hand, Iwagakure is also Konoha's enemy, and it is more in Konoha's interest to let Iwagakure and Kumogakure fight and weaken each other. Finally, Kirigakure is still entrenched in the land of the Land of Fire, and Konoha has no reason to launch an external attack before clearing out the foreign enemies.

In the end, with a tacit understanding between Konoha and Kumogakure, both sides began to withdraw their troops from the front line of the Land of the Moon, although the two sides did not sign any peace agreement. Kumogakure began to turn to deal with Iwagakure, and Konoha began to deal with the remaining enemies. In the end, both sides only left a small part of their forces in the Land of the Moon to maintain confrontation.

Soon, Minato began to return to Konoha with Konoha's main force, including Liu Yu and others.

This time, the village prepared an unusually grand welcome ceremony, after all, this was a rare victory for Konoha in recent years. This victory greatly frustrated the spirit of the Kumogakure, and also played the prestige of Konoha.

When Minato Namikaze walked into the village first, the villagers who came to greet him instantly burst into a huge cheer that resounded throughout the village. At this moment, Minato Namikaze was the undisputed protagonist.

After Minato Namikaze were Ken Shimura and Inoichi Yamanaka. Their status on the front line of the Moon Country was second only to Minato Namikaze, and they also made considerable contributions in the war on the front line of the Moon Country.

After that, it was Kusa Chi Ryuuha who made great contributions in the battle of Zewang Mountain. To be honest, when Minato Namikaze suggested that she walk in front of the team, Ryuuha was still a little nervous. The order of entering the village represents the contribution made in this war. It can be said that the earlier the order of entering the village, the better the future development in Konoha.

As a ninja who recently joined Konoha, Liu Yu knew that the Kusa Sen clan was not recognized by most villagers. In addition to the reason of merit, Minato Namikaze made such an arrangement to help the Kusa Sen clan better integrate into Konoha, so Liu Yu did not refuse Minato Namikaze's arrangement. At this moment, Liu Yu, as the patriarch of the Kusa Sen clan, is based on the better development of the Kusa Sen clan.

However, seeing the villagers cheering for him, Liu Yu couldn't help but show a little pride. Looking at Asuma and Hong and other Konoha people behind him who were also full of pride, Liu Yu also understood why they were willing to risk their lives to protect the village.

Liu Yu turned his gaze back and looked at the Konoha high-level officials standing in front of the welcoming team. Except for the controller of the root, Shimura Danzo, who did not appear at the welcome ceremony, the third-generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Utatane Koharu, Mitomon En and other Konoha high-level officials all came. Liu Yu looked at the expression of the third-generation old man looking at everyone from time to time.

Looking at Minato Namikaze who was walking in front and smiling and greeting the villagers, the Third Hokage smiled with satisfaction. This was the perfect successor to the Will of Fire in his mind. If it weren't for Orochimaru's ambition, I believe the Third Hokage would be more inclined to pass the position of Hokage to Orochimaru.

When he saw Yamanaka Inoichi and Shimura Ken, the Third Hokage also showed a satisfied smile. Then, the Third Hokage turned his eyes to himself and smiled kindly. Looking at the kind Third Hokage, Liu Yu also smiled faintly. This time, the performance on the front line of the Moon Country should be quite satisfactory to the Third Hokage.
