The Fourth Hokage and Kushina died instantly, and now the Nine-Tails is sealed in a child. This means that the Nine-Tails will not be an obstacle to us for at least a dozen years, and we can rest assured and wait for it to be sealed.
The losses in Konoha were extremely severe, with a sea of fire and countless tragedies among the ruins. "
According to Black Zetsu, Konoha was almost destroyed by 1/3, and the death toll almost reached the level of annihilation of the village.
Obito nodded in satisfaction.
"Well, it was worth it for me and Minato Namikaze to fight so fiercely."
……
Well, neither of them is actually telling the truth.
Day 2 dawned.
In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen was dealing with the troubles that were coming his way in his temporary position.
The elders and the village's jonin had already gathered together, and the heads of the various ninja clans sat on both sides with serious faces. Even Orochimaru sat in a corner.
The last time there was such a big scene was when the Fourth Hokage was elected.
"How was the damage in the village last night?"
"More than 800 houses collapsed. Two commercial streets were completely destroyed. 3032 people died. Countless people were injured."
hiss~~~
The Nine-Tailed Fox is worthy of being the god of disaster in the thousand-year-old legend. It caused such great harm in the village in just a short period of time.
For a ninja village, such a loss is already devastating.
Houses are fine, they can be rebuilt if they collapse, but people are really dead, and they are precious resources of the village.
What's more, there are two commercial streets, which were spontaneously established by merchants over the past few decades.
The running water tax provided great support to the village. Now that it has been destroyed, even if it is rebuilt, it will not be as prosperous as before.
Just hearing about this part of the loss was enough to make the high-ranking officials who controlled the direction of Konoha feel extremely heartbroken.
"We'll allocate a portion of the Sand Village's compensation to provide economic relief and compensation to ordinary people, as well as reconstruction work. Is there any objection to this?"
Everyone expressed their support. The fact that Konoha has been able to grow to this point is a force that ordinary people cannot ignore.
Several great ninja clans close to the Hokage were willing to generously donate money to ease the pressure on the village. Neutral people like Hyuga also paid a sum of money.
This is the relationship between the ninja clan and the ninja village. Only through common development can Konoha continue to prosper.
"What about the casualties of the ninjas?"
"Two hundred Genin died, forty Chunin died, and three Jonin died."
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt like he needed a quick-acting heart pill.
A jonin, a jonin who can carry out S-level missions. Each of them is worth over 100 million taels of resources to Konoha.
He survived the Ninja World War but was killed by the Nine-Tails at the village gate. No matter how you look at it, it was a huge loss.
The 40 Chunins are also the backbone of the village. Some of them are diligently carrying out B-level and C-level tasks. Some can also take on some responsibilities in various departments of the village.
The more than 200 Genins are even more heartbreaking, and a gap in an era has appeared.
These were sacrificed when the Nine-Tails first appeared. At that time, the Nine-Tails appeared in the core area of the village, and most of the people who sacrificed in order to protect the village's resources and the dilemma of not being able to use powerful ninjutsu were in this wave.
Chapter 89: Kushina White Pulling the Cart
Even for this, we have to thank Orochimaru for sacrificing two top-level summoning beasts to lead the enemy step by step to the outskirts of the village, avoiding greater casualties.
As for the compensation for the ninja... I will give some ninjutsu from the village and myself.
The village really had no money, so they could only use these more precious ninjutsu to compensate the family of Ren Ninja. For the Ninja Clan, this was a more acceptable option than monetary consolation.
It was only after the Third World War that the village was once again filled with white sails. It was truly... a natural disaster.
After sorting out the village’s losses, the next topic is the mysterious swordsman.
Everyone was so confused about this that they couldn't say anything.
The era of samurai passed thousands of years ago, so no one thought that man was a pure swordsman.
Their cold and arrogant style is somewhat similar to that of a former samurai family like the Hatake.
The other party didn't seem to have any intention of contacting the people of Konoha, but he didn't do anything to Konoha. So he was really not sure whether he was one of their own?
The decision of Noah taking the other half of the Nine-Tails was made in the presence of him, Minato and Kushina, and no one else knew about it.
Therefore, the villain aura that Noah wanted to show did not achieve the desired effect at all. Some people even suspected that this was a strong man lured by the Senju clan or a related member of Konoha.
Of course, there are also people who think that Noah is a villain but cannot provide any evidence, such as Danzo Shimura.
"This person must be coveting something in Konoha. How could someone do a good deed for free?"
"Hiruzen, I suggest setting up a special investigation team, and the funding can be given according to the previous standards."
Few people agreed. The elder still spoke in such an exaggerated way.
Threat theory, requiring funding.
That is to say, it was much more restrained when the Fourth Hokage was around, but now it is a solid relapse.
They didn't even think about the fact that the other party had defeated the Nine-Tails and saved Konoha. Even a ninja with low morals would not want to provoke this big guy.
Kakashi was among the crowd, looking at Danzo's neck and thinking.
The sword light that amazed the world last night made people yearn for it. This might be the kind of swordsman in the pirate world that Adam told him about.
With such sword skills, one can indeed cut off anything one wants to cut off, and protect anything one wants to protect.
The White Fang Blade, which he had decided to put down for the sake of the overall situation, seemed to be calling out to this Son of White Fang.
He fell into another round of thinking, such as testing the knife on a one-eyed man.
As for the Sandaime...let's wait and see.
In the end, they didn't come up with any clues about the mysterious swordsman, so they temporarily put it aside and started discussing the next more sensitive issue.
What should the Uchiha clan do?
When he said this, some people present looked at Orochimaru. After all, he appeared on the battlefield with Uchiha Shisui last night, and everyone had witnessed Shisui's performance in the battle, so they were a little sensitive.
But in the end, the resentment of the family whose members had died broke through their restraint, and they began to attack the Uchiha frantically under the leadership of someone.
It has basically been confirmed that Uchiha can control the Nine-Tails, but how he controls it is still unclear.
So it’s not excessive to add an extra layer of surveillance in daily life, and it’s not excessive to encounter a few more difficulties in the tasks.
The third generation also let it go on this matter, and even had some guiding meaning in it.
The last bit of his trust in the Uchiha clan had already been exhausted last night. He even regretted not eradicating this evil family earlier, which led to Konoha suffering this disaster.
Orochimaru said nothing at this time and let them discuss. In his heart, he also disliked Uchiha's attitude of looking down on others.
In the end, it was Elder Danzo of the Root who expressed his willingness to fight this evil family.
Just to give everyone a bright and clear world.
This sinister guy's remarks on taking the initiative to deal with Uchiha were unanimously recognized by everyone.
They had never believed in Danzo so much before. He was definitely a master at this kind of thing. Some people even saw the sad life that Uchiha would lead in the future.
After the topic of Uchiha comes the final question, the legacy left by the Fourth Hokage.
There was no room for discussion, and the Sandaime directly announced that Naruto's custody would be temporarily handed over to him.
When Danzo, who had been in the limelight before, wanted to say a few words, he was frightened by the murderous look of his old friend.
After the meeting, Sarutobi Hiruzen left Orochimaru behind.
"Orochimaru, are you interested in the position of the Fifth Hokage?"
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, feeling ridiculous. Again?
He left after saying that he would leave it to the teacher's arrangements.
After seeing the wider world here with Noah, he no longer has such a deep obsession. If the position of Hokage must be thrown into his hands, it is not impossible.
It was impossible to just continue staring at the bone like a dog. He was a snake, the kind that would bite back if he got angry.
He planned to take Shisui out of the village to study the Will of Fire in a few months. According to Noah, the child was about to awaken.
At the same time, the projects and laboratories of the Rain Country have been prepared. It is said that a lot of new materials that sound impressive have been added. Sure enough, that place is more to my liking.
The fact that I haven't left yet is my last bit of friendship for Konoha.
In short, the aftermath of the Nine-Tails Night has just begun to ferment within Konoha.
The entire Uchiha clan also received a message from the Root, stating that they were free to go out, without any other unnecessary explanation.
This attitude also made the Uchiha, who was locked in the clan territory for a whole night, feel extremely disrespected.
Fugaku was not surprised at all and accepted the outcome calmly.
After Minato Namikaze's death, his relationship with the village could never be the same.
The choice of force and peace is not ours.
While the Ninja World and Konoha were in a bustle, a small car was heading towards the Rain Country on a small road.
Noah was sitting in the car thinking about something. Some people changed their fates that night, while others did not. This was a good sign.
The great trends are also built up from countless small forces.
"Hey! How far is it!"
"It will take another day to walk along this path, crossing two rivers and a small hill to reach the border."
"Don't ask yourself, okay? It's weird."
"Then I'll grow my head on your shoulders?"
"Please don't, this is fine."
Um...the person pulling the cart in front is...Kushina Shiro.
When has the great Blood Red Chili ever done such a thing? If Minato Namikaze could see it in heaven, he would probably fire another ball at him.
But Kushina was indeed helpless in pulling the cart.
That night they urgently left the battlefield and ran far away. Suddenly, Noah fell to the ground with a pale face.
Frightened, Kushina hurried to check what was going on. Whether she could survive now depended on whether this mysterious swordsman could fulfill his promise.
I have given up so many things in order to see little Naruto grow up, so I hope no more accidents will happen.
Chapter 90: The Land of Rain Does Not Keep Idle People and Idle Foxes
"I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well. Usually Xiaobai takes me out when I go on long trips.
After such a fierce battle with the Nine-Tailed Fox, I can't bear the long distance trek now, so... can you pull a cart for me?"
I pull a cart? ! ! !
Even if I'm not the Hokage's wife, I'm still a beauty after all. At worst, I'm a dying beauty!
Even though she was in the grief of Minato's death, Kukushina felt the rage rising. She really wanted to punch the bastard in front of her.
And you still say you are not feeling well? ! !
When you chopped off the Nine-Tailed Fox before, you were so energetic that you chopped the stinky fox upside down. Now you tell me that you are not in good health and that the Nine-Tailed Fox will cry, you bastard!
Besides, if you are not in good health, then mine will be fine?
I'm dying. If I can't get to the place you mentioned in five days, I can go see Minato.
Then he impatiently sensed it and almost popped his eyes out.
"Fuck! Why aren't you dead yet?"
In an instant, the way he looked at Noah became as if he had seen a ghost.
If Kushina's vitality is a candle in the wind, then Noah is simply the remaining smoke after the candle is extinguished, okay?
