Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

At the moment when the Yellow Flash dissipated, Kanpū’s main body received the memory, and he immediately felt refreshed. Although it was Minato’s reputation that deterred the thousands of Iwagakure’s Shinobi, this did not prevent Kanpū from being cool.

He told Dove about this, and Dove immediately said that he wanted to ask some credit for Kanpū!

Kanpū is somewhat guilty, ‘In case Minato knows… Wouldn’t he not choose me to be in his Hokage Guard Platoon in the future?

At the same time, another of Kanpū’s shadow clone finally arrived near the border guarded by the other Anbu, and then set off emergency signal about the Iwagakure’s Shinobi’s invasion.

After a while, the Anbu guarding the border rushed over towards his location. The shadow clone didn’t remember the code name of this Anbu, and just told them about the thousands of Iwagakure’s Shinobi’s invasion and asked them to quickly evacuate and notify their companion at the next border.

Then the shadow clone dispersed himself.

Time passed, and the information about the thousands of Iwagakure’s Shinobi invading through the Land of Grass quickly spread across the border, and then it reached Konoha at a very fast speed!

Hokage Tower.

Conference Hall.

Hiruzen, Koharu, Homura, Danzō are having an emergency meeting about the Iwagakure’s invasion.

“One thousand Iwagakure’s Shinobi, I didn’t expect Iwagakure’s Shinobi to send so many Shinobi!” Homura sighed with emotion, and then asked, “Why didn’t Kusagakure send their Shinobi to remind us?”

“Iwagakure’s Shinobi should have killed them.”

Hiruzen took a puff of his pipe and spit out the cloud, and then said, “But in the next battle, we can ask Kusagakure for help.”

“All of our Shinobi that are stationed on the Land of Grass’s border add up to less than 100 people. Even with the addition of Kusagakure’s Shinobi, they can’t resist a thousand Iwagakure’s Shinobi!” Danzō squinted his one eye and said, “The village must send support!”

Homura pushed the frame on the bridge of his nose, and said: “Now we are fighting against three, Kumogakure Battlefield and Iwagakure Battlefield are still under great pressure, only on the Kirigakure Battlefield that Uchiha Clan and Hyūga Clan have taken a considerable advantage, and have sent the young Genin and Chunin back to the village, but even so, we can’t pull out a Shinobi army that can withstand the thousands of Iwagakure’s Shinobi immediately, unless we get Anbu and Root…”

“Idiot!”

Danzō said with stern righteousness, “Anbu’s responsibility is to protect the Hokage, protect the higher-ups, assassinate the enemy’s higher-ups, spy on information and torture spies, and you actually want use them to directly resist a thousand of Iwagakure’s Shinobi? Stop joking around! As for Root, I’m sorry but there are too few people.”

Homura’s brows were slightly wrinkle. Regarding the specific combat power of Anbu and Root, he actually didn’t know much. Seeing Danzō answering so fast, he immediately turned his head and looked towards Hiruzen.

Hiruzen spit out another cloud, and nodded slightly.

After the war began, Hiruzen kept sending Anbu to the frontline to assassinate the enemy’s higher0-ups, which was very costly. After Orochimaru went to the frontline, he sent one hundred Anbu to follow him in one go, it was already one third of the whole Anbu’s manpower!

Of these 100 Anbu, only fifty people came back in the end, and not long after they came back, they followed Minato to the Land of Rain. They had always supported the frontline and did not come back. After that, he transferred a part of Anbu to support the Kumogakure Battlefield.

Six months ago, Hiruzen sent another 20 Anbu to guard the Land of Grass’s border, plus the Anbu sent to the border of other small countries, the remaining Anbu can only stick to Konoha now, and there is really no way to mobilize the manpower that can fight the one thousand Iwagakure’s Shinobi.

As for Root, to be honest, Hiruzen didn’t know the details, so he turned to look at Danzō.

But Danzō did not give Hiruzen a chance to ask questions, and directly suggested: “I suggest sending Orochimaru to the border for support! Although Orochimaru is only one person, his strength is enough to destroy a small country and he should be able to withstand a thousand Iwagakure’s Shinobi!”

Hiruzen frowned, and his attention was instantly diverted by Danzō.

“Orochimaru…”

Although Anbu no longer monitors Orochimaru, Hiruzen has made up his mind to make Minato as his heir. If Orochimaru is allowed to enter the frontline to obtain merits, there might be huge variables in the competition for the Yondaime Hokage’s position, which is not what Hiruzen wants to see.

Koharu turned her head to look at Hiruzen, and said: “Hiruzen, what do you think?”

Hiruzen shook his head, then put down his pipe and said: “Compared to Orochimaru, I prefer Yellow Flash.”

“Yellow Flash?”

Homura nodded, “That’s true, although Orochimaru is one of the Sannin, but against Iwagakure’s Shinobi, Yellow Flash’s deterrent power is obviously greater than Orochimaru’s.”

“Didn’t Minato go to support the Kumogakure Battlefield?” Danzō was unwilling and said solemnly, “If he is transferred away, what will happen to the Kumogakure Battlefield? This pair of the son of Sandaime Raikage and Hachibi’s Jinchūriki can’t be defeated with just a large number of people.”

After the words fell, a Shinobi in Anbu’s attire appeared in the Conference Hall, knelt on one knee, and said loudly: “Hokage-sama, there is the latest information from the frontline!”

Hiruzen’s face turned dignified, and he hurriedly took the scroll and opened it. Nothing After a while, a gratified smile appeared on his face.

“What’s wrong?” Danzō frowned. He doesn’t know why, but every time he sees Hiruzen smile like this, he gets angry.

“It was the information from the Kumogakure Battlefield’s frontline.”

Hiruzen handed the scroll to Danzō, and said with a smile, “Sandaime Raikage’s son, A, and Hachibi’s Jinchūriki, Killer B, have retreated temporarily.”

“What? What happened?” Homura’s eyes widened upon hearing this.

“It’s Minato.” Hiruzen smiled and looked towards Danzō, “In this way, there should be no problem.”

“Hmph!”

Danzō snorted, then handed the scroll to Homura.

“So that’s how it is.”

After reading the information, Homura smiled and said, ” Minato actually get a draw against A and Killer B by himself, as expected of the Yellow Flash!”

“Although he only repelled them temporarily, it should be able to buy us more time.”

Koharu also looked over from Homura’s head for a few times, and then said thoughtfully, “Since everyone has decided to send Yellow Flash to support the Land of Grass’s border, let’s make a plan first! Hiruzen, do you have any plans?”

“Hmph!”

Danzō couldn’t help but snorted again.

Hiruzen ignored him and started to speak slowly: “Minato is good at speed, so it would be hard for him to face one thousand of Iwagakure’s Shinobi head-on, so he has to start from the rear.”

“The rear? That’s right! Destroy the logistic supply channel of the Iwagakure’s Shinobi’s army!”

Homura’s eyes lit up, and he could not help but follow Hiruzen’s thoughts and said, “When the supply channel is cut off, this batch of Iwagakure’s army will be like a tree without roots. At that time, with Yellow Flash and Shinobi on the border continuously consume the Iwagakure’s Shinobi’s army, they will soon be defeated!”

Koharu nodded again and again, and immediately opened the map of the Land of Grass, “Then, Iwagakure’s supply channel should be…”

“Kannabi Bridge!”

…

After the one thousand Iwagakure’s Shinobi arrived at the border, they immediately divided into two groups. A small part of the Shinobi expanded the battle result from north to south, completely occupying the 500-kilometer border between the Land of Fire and Land of Grass. As for the others, they drove straight ahead, looking at their posture, they actually wanted to attack Konoha directly!!

After the news spread, the Anbu and the rest of the Konohas Shinobi, who had withdrawn the border because of Kanpū’s reminder, had no choice but to reunite in an attempt to stop the Iwagakure’s Shinobi’s army.
