Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 574 Namikaze Minato and Sarutobi Hiruzen

As V continued to demonstrate his skills, Kai learned many new abilities. Aside from the more advanced ones, he had a basic understanding of the rest. With consistent practice, he was sure to master them.

V naturally learned the Eight Gates, but Kai kept telling V not to open the last gate. It was a forbidden technique that attempted to drain all the strength of the body. Once used, it would cause death after draining all the vitality.

V listened carefully to Kai's explanation of the various effects of the Eight Gates Ninjutsu and sighed, "It seems this is indeed a ninjutsu that requires desperate efforts, but I can already feel its power."

Ninjutsu that costs life has extremely powerful effects, and V has already felt the power contained in it from the detailed description.

Kai spoke expectantly, "So you must grasp the opportunity to use it. Of course, I hope you will never use this ninjutsu."

V nodded and said, "I have ways to resist these at the cost of my life, but I will listen carefully to your advice. Can I teach this jutsu to others?"

V thought about it and finally asked the question. He could have taught this technique directly to Lu Chen, but V considered Kai his friend. So it would be best to ask his opinion. Even if he wasn't allowed to, that wouldn't stop V from teaching it.

Kai seemed to be on fire. "Of course, I believe the person you choose will be fine. This is the bond between young people who have confirmed each other! I want to run back to the village on my head right now."

After expressing his emotion, Kai once again used the ripples to strengthen his hands and started running upside down. In this way, he was exercising both the ripples and his physique at the same time.

V also ran after him.

As they passed by a certain place, Itachi and Shisui took a look. The name of Kai's famous rare beast had begun to spread in Konoha. This was actually not a good reputation.

Shisui values Itachi, the eldest son of the clan leader and the Hokage's guardian, very much. He also believes that the Uchiha clan should develop peacefully with Konoha Village.

Itachi looked at Gai's strange expression and asked, "Is it really effective to practice Taijutsu like this?"

Although Shisui admired people like Kai who insisted on their own path, he still poured cold water on Itachi: "This is not the path of our Uchiha clan. Dojutsu is everything to us."

Shisui is one of the very few members of the Uchiha clan who does not discriminate against other ninjas.

As Shisui spoke, his eyes turned into a kaleidoscope, the same eyes he had shown to Itachi.

The Gundam that Madara drove in the village yesterday can also be released by himself. Susanoo is a ninjutsu that every Mangekyō Sharingan holder can release.

After listening to Minato's report to him, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep puff of his cigarette with a melancholy look on his face.

Originally, the war was over, and the successor was also very capable. Konoha should have entered a period of peaceful development. He should also be able to enjoy a period of peaceful days.

However, in just a few months after the war, Konoha had suffered two attacks, and each attack involved a powerful family of Konoha.

The first time, the Hyuga clan suffered heavy losses, and the second time, even Uchiha Madara was resurrected by someone. Although Sarutobi Hiruzen suspected that this time it was most likely Orochimaru's fault, he broke into the Root organization's underground secret base but did not find Orochimaru.

Orochimaru disappeared inexplicably, and the surviving members of the Root organization confirmed that Uchiha Madara was indeed resurrected by Orochimaru.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel extremely exhausted. None of his three disciples were able to make a difference. Now the three of them were almost useless to Konoha. Apart from Jiraiya's disciple, no one else came to share his burden.

Originally, Sarutobi Hiruzen believed that Minato must be the one predicted. After all, isn't it natural that the Hokage of the strongest village should bring peace to the world?

And Jiraiya is still looking for other children of prophecy.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but sigh, and after blowing out a smoke ring, he asked, "Minato, what do you think about this matter?"

Minato already had the intention of trading the Kyuubi to Lu Chen, so he said, "The village has been attacked twice, each time with heavy losses. We cannot afford a third attack."

Sarutobi Hiruzen put his pipe aside and thought for a long time before saying, "Even if the Nine-Tails is traded to Lu Chen, the alien who captured the other tailed beasts will definitely come to Konoha. He will not be able to obtain this information. This kind of information cannot be spread immediately."

"But how did that alien find the tailed beasts? He should have some sense of them. I've fought against the Raikage brothers before. If even they couldn't prevent the theft of the Eight-Tails, I shouldn't be able to stop it alone."

"I contacted the spies in Takigakure, and they haven't lost the Seven-Tails yet. And they don't know that the tailed beasts are being taken away. We need to take the Nine-Tails and aid them."

It's only natural that the Root had spies planted in Takigakure. How could a village with a tailed beast not be spies? These are uncontrollable forces. It's just that this intelligence-related power hasn't yet been handed over to Minato. Saru Hiruzen also closed down this intelligence network when he took over the Root.

The Dark Ninja World's Danzo has his own intelligence network in every village, so that he can carry out his conspiracy without restraint. Now that the Root has lost another leader, Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to take on this part himself.

The implication of his words was clear: if a battle were to break out between the two aliens for the Tailed Beast, it would be best to do so in another village. The two previous battles had already caused Konoha to suffer immense losses. While the houses were being rapidly rebuilt, the loss of human life was immeasurable.

"I will take my men to support them right away, and I will make sure the battle does not spread to Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen made a decisive decision: "No, I will go myself this time."

Just like the second generation covered their retreat back then, now it is time for him to come to Konoha's next generation to protect them from the storm.

Minato came up with a reason: "The Kyuubi's Jinchuriki is my wife, so just let me go."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said meaningfully: "We have lost the Nine-Tails, haven't we?"

He paused for a moment. Konoha's loss of the Nine-Tails was extremely serious, but if all the villages lost their tailed beasts, it would actually be a strengthening for Konoha.
