Public executions started with King Adonai

"Some geniuses, like my student Hatake Kakashi, even graduated from the ninja school and became ninjas at the age of five."

"In fact, my three students have all experienced the Great Ninja War, and this is also the situation in our Ninja World."

"Or rather, this is the ninja world."

Minato Namikaze emphasized the existence of the ninja world in his words, which was to remind Fujimaru Tachibana that the world is different and the values are also different.

It is inappropriate for Fujimaru Tachibana to apply the values of his own world to the ninja world. The ninja world has its own rules.

Of course, matters in different worlds were still confidential information and could not be revealed to the three students, so Namikaze Minato's reminder did not directly mention the situations in different worlds, but only emphasized the 'Ninja World'.

Fujimaru Tachibana naturally understood what Namikaze Minato meant. After a brief silence, she said nothing more.

For people in the real world, this situation is undoubtedly a bit cruel.

People's understanding of this ninja world has also become clearer, and there is no doubt that this is a distorted world compared to the real world.

From the perspective of modern society, a world where children are sent to war as a matter of course is undoubtedly extremely cruel and distorted.

However, many historians say that such a situation would actually be very normal in ancient society.

Looking at the human history of the earth, except for a very few countries like Yan State in ancient times, other countries and nations were undoubtedly barbaric and backward.

Especially those barbarians and nomadic peoples, let alone letting their children go to the battlefield, many children even have to learn to survive alone in the wilderness at a very young age, otherwise they will die.

Therefore, in the ninja world where civilization was still in the feudal serfdom period, it was normal for teenagers to become ninjas and go to the battlefield.

Rather, it is very 'merciful' in a sense.

Because there is at least one ninja school in Konoha, before becoming a ninja, you need to learn various skills in school, and only after graduation can you enter the ninja school.

If you can't graduate, you can't be a ninja, let alone go to the battlefield.

This system seems cruel in modern society, but it is undoubtedly a benevolent policy in the feudal serf society where productivity is low.

Because in this kind of society, most people have problems getting food, which means survival becomes a problem. Many children die from hunger, cold or other disasters without even having the chance to grow up.

Although Konoha's actions do not conform to the values of modern society, for the people of Konoha and the people of the ninja world, it may even be a dream that most people dream of but cannot achieve.

Even in many troubled areas in the real world, such treatment is something that people in those countries can only dream of.

All in all, putting aside the world and social environment, it is actually very unfair to simply compare the ninja world with the real world.

This view was quickly put forward and caused many people to think and even agree.

The light screen image shows that a team of six people who are brave enough to enter the Death Forest has been formed.

With the help of Minato Namikaze, the six of them passed directly through the security zone belonging to Konoha outside the Death Forest. Those strongholds one after another separated the border between the Death Forest and Konoha, forming a huge barrier that blocked everything in the Death Forest.

Although it is daytime now, you can see that the huge Death Forest is filled with densely packed big trees, as if you have suddenly entered the Amazon jungle. The leaves of the big trees directly block more than 90% of the sunlight, so that the light in the Death Forest is very dim even during the day.

In Taoist terms, this Death Forest is a natural treasure trove where demons and evil spirits breed, and it is filled with extremely heavy yin energy.

In fact, in Kikyo's eyes, the Death Forest is a demonic land where you can see the demonic aura rising into the sky from a long distance. It has been completely occupied and polluted by monsters. It is completely a paradise for monsters, like a monster kingdom, and is definitely a forbidden zone for humans.

This is something that only Kikyo can see, but no one else can see.

However, Fujimaru Tachibana showed her talent at this time.

Although she couldn't see any demonic aura, the girl could feel that the Death Forest was very scary and dangerous. It gave her the feeling that it was a dangerous place that she must stay away from.

Because of his pure sense of crisis, Fujimaru Tachibana knows when to seek benefits and avoid harm even though he does not have the ability to sense and see demonic energy like Kikyo.

Of course, that is the normal situation. Now, we have to go there even if we know there is a tiger there.

Chapter 596: There is no conspiracy theory, but stupidity is the original sin

Very dangerous and very weird.

Those young people who like to commit suicide and some ghost hunting live broadcasters must like this kind of place very much. It is thrilling and exciting, and they may die at any time. The traffic of people who go there to commit suicide will definitely be very high.

Of course, most rational people who encounter such places will probably choose to stay away from them rather than actually go in, because if they really go in, they will most likely die.

Because there really are monsters in here.

However, now a group of young people have entered.

There are six people, three of whom are not even fifteen years old, which means they are just little kids, and the oldest is only 24 years old.

If this happened in the real world, they would just be a group of people seeking death.

Now that the six people have gone in, the people in the real world are a little worried, but not too worried, because among these six people there is a super master who can suppress a large group of monsters, and there is also a master who can teleport. Normally, there is nothing in this forest that can really pose a fatal threat to them.

As long as you don't act recklessly and recklessly, there will be no problem.

In fact, there were six people in the group. Fujimaru Tachibana and Kikyo walked together, while Hatake Kakashi, Nohara Rin and Uchiha Obito surrounded Fujimaru Tachibana and Kikyo, forming a triangle guard formation, which was the usual formation for ninjas to protect their employers.

As for Minato Namikaze, he walked at the front of the team, serving as the main force to explore the way and be on guard.

The six people continued to advance in this way, moving forward in this forest of death.

Yes, the six people have entered the Death Forest. The forest is dark and damp, with countless snakes, insects, rats and ants, giving people a gloomy feeling, as if many dangerous eyes are staring at everyone.

In fact, there were indeed many dangerous things staring at everyone in the shadows, full of greed for the flesh and blood of the six people, wanting to devour the six people.

There is no doubt that those hiding in the shadows are monsters living in the Death Forest.

The reason why the monsters hid far away in the shadows and did not rush over to attack the six people directly was because Kikyo cast a spell on the six people, which had the effect of exorcising evil and had a repulsive effect on ordinary monsters, making ordinary monsters dare not approach easily.

Although Kikyo could also choose to directly face those monsters and kill them, that would waste time. The most important thing for everyone now was to rush to the location immediately.

If that Chaldean man is still alive, every second of delay will increase the risk of his life.

Then, the image on the screen switched to the Hokage's office.

The meeting of Konoha's top brass also came to an end, and Sarutobi Hiruzen made a concluding speech: "Well, the cooperation between Konoha and Chaldea is confirmed. We, Konoha, will cooperate with Chaldea's actions."

"At the same time, we will remain independent and vigilant to confirm whether what Chaldea said is true."

"No matter what, it is an indisputable fact that the ninja world is suffering from disasters. What we in Konoha have to do now is to confirm the truth and collect evidence."

"As for the deadline, it's based on two months. If what Chaldea said is truly confirmed, it will not be a problem that we, Konoha, can handle."

"When the time comes, Konoha will invite the Kage from the other four nations to hold the Five Kage Conference."

"Minato, by that time you will be the Yondaime Hokage, and you will be needed to preside over the Five Kage Conference."

The last words were said to Minato Namikaze's true form, who nodded seriously and responded, "Yes, Sandaime-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, then announced the adjournment of the meeting, allowing the Konoha executives to act according to the results and arrangements previously discussed.

Minato Namikaze also subsequently reported that the shadow clone had taken Fujimaru Tachibana and the others to the Forest of Death, and informed them of all the relevant information.

After knowing all this, Sarutobi Hiruzen just nodded and didn't say anything because Namikaze Minato took Fujimaru Tachibana and Kikyo to take risks.

As the person who is about to become the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato has his own power and decision-making. Sarutobi Hiruzen chooses to support the choices he makes.

Most importantly, Sarutobi Hiruzen has full trust in Namikaze Minato.

After that, Minato Namikaze left using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

After Minato Namikaze left, Sarutobi Hiruzen's door was pushed open again, and two high-ranking Konoha officials returned.

These were a middle-aged man and a woman, about the same age as Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The names of the two people were also revealed. The man's name was Mitokado En and the woman's name was Utane Koharu. They were the advisory elders of Konoha.

In the real world, Mitomonen and Utane Koharu were both stunned, and then they felt a headache. As local officials in the Yingzhou region, they knew that their careers would be affected after appearing on the light screen.

Regardless of whether one can become a transcendent or not, it is impossible for him to continue to serve as an official according to the established path. It can be said that the traditional career path has been completely destroyed the moment he appears.

For two power-hungry people who were wholeheartedly devoted to their careers, this was undoubtedly a huge blow, making them extremely depressed and full of resentment, but helpless.

-

Seeing the two of them coming back, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked curiously, "Is there anything else? Yan, and Xiaochun."

This tone is used to address old friends. Obviously, the two middle-aged and elderly people who are about the same age as Sarutobi Hiruzen are Sarutobi Hiruzen's friends.

After hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's question, the two advisory elders exchanged a glance, and then Mito Kado En spoke up: "Huruzen, why didn't you invite Danzo to this important meeting?"

Utane Koharu nodded: "I wanted to ask this during the previous meeting, but it was difficult to ask then, so we came back to ask."

Hearing the questions from his two friends, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, and then told his two friends that Danzo Shimura had acted on his own and attacked Kikyo, which almost led to the two sides becoming enemies.

After hearing what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, the two advisory elders were stunned. They didn't expect that Shimura Danzo would do such a thing behind their backs.

However, just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was sentimental and only scolded Shimura Danzo a few words even when Shimura Danzo did such a thing, these two advisory elders were also sentimental.

So, Utane Koharu couldn't help but speak for Shimura Danzo: "Danzo is also doing this for Konoha, Hiruzen, you shouldn't take this matter too seriously."

Mitomon En nodded: "Although Danzo's approach is a bit extreme, I believe his original intention is good. We are all for Konoha, so let's not make things too awkward."

"Furthermore, as the leader of the Root, Danzo should have the right to know about today's meeting. I think we need to tell Danzo about this."

Both of them were speaking for Danzo Shimura, which made people in the real world shake their heads, thinking that these two advisory elders were either stupid or evil.

After all, Shimura Danzo's behavior clearly showed that he was a traitor who wanted to usurp the throne, and this kind of thing is an extremely bad betrayal no matter where it is.

As a result, the two advisory elders still had to speak for Shimura Danzo, which made them look stupid and evil.

Of course, if the two of them, like Sarutobi Hiruzen, did not know the true identity of Shimura Danzo, but were simply nostalgic and did not want the relationship between old friends to be affected, then it would be a pity.

You treat Danzo Shimura as an old friend, but Danzo Shimura actually wants to usurp the throne and commit treason!

Many people in the real world have begun to complain about Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two advisory elders for their lack of vision. They don’t even know the true identity of Shimura Danzo, which has been completely concealed from them. They are really not worthy of being the top leaders of Konoha.

The real Konoha high-ranking officials and sinister politicians should be well aware of all this and do bad things secretly, especially Sarutobi Hiruzen, who should use Shimura Danzo as a white glove tool. When the white glove tool betrayed him, he should be wiped out directly.

However, this is just the nonsense of many people from a God's perspective.

In fact, throughout thousands of years of human history, there are countless cases like the Konoha high-level structure where traitors appeared within and caused trouble, and those in power condoned them out of nostalgia.

Similarly, there are countless cases where the leaders of a faction have been deceived and misled by their subordinates.

Not only those incompetent monarchs, but also many wise and capable kings were almost all deceived by the traitors under their command. Even after those kings fell, their countries were destroyed by their treacherous ministers.

Therefore, situations like the Konoha high-level officials' situation are really not strange at all. Just open the history books and you can find countless similar cases.

The key lies in whether the traitor's rebellion will succeed.

Judging from the current situation, the position of the traitor Danzo Shimura is quite stable, because Sarutobi Hiruzen, the leader of Konoha, and the advisory elders of Konoha's high-level all have a very emotional trust in Danzo Shimura. Their overly nostalgic attitude makes them tend to favor Danzo Shimura when making judgments.

This is not to excuse Sarutobi Hiruzen. As the leader of a faction, incompetence is his original sin. However, in the feudal serfdom era, from the leaders of city-states and tribes to the emperors of great countries, incompetence was the majority, and famous leaders were always a minority.

Even most of the great kings were only famous when they were young. When they got older, all kinds of foolish behaviors emerged one after another.

Sarutobi Hiruzen now shows that he cannot judge people well, is too nostalgic, and lets his emotions affect his judgment, which is a typical example of "stupidity".

Perhaps, Sarutobi Hiruzen also realized his own "stupidity", so he was eager to pass the position to Namikaze Minato.

-

According to the image on the light screen, several highly respected high-ranking officials of Konoha decided to tell Danzo Shimura about the matter. At this time, when countless people in the real world believed that Danzo Shimura would definitely cause trouble after knowing it, Minato Namikaze's real body also came to Fujimaru Tachibana and the others.

Therefore, everyone who had not been attacked by monsters because of Kikyo's magic was now even safer.

As soon as the real body arrived, with Kikyo's demon-dispelling spell as a safety BUFF, Namikaze Minato decided to take the lead and, together with his shadow clone, use the Flying Thunder God Technique to explore in the direction indicated by Fujimaru Tachibana's electronic watch.

This can speed up the search for people. If you find someone, you can immediately use the Flying Thunder God Technique to get ahead of them.

So, Minato Namikaze left first, leaving the five young ones behind.

Before leaving, Minato Namikaze also asked the three students to protect Fujimaru Tachibana and Kikyo. This task was even set as an S-level task by the Third Hokage.

This is the highest level of ninja missions. There are five levels of ninja mission atmosphere: SABCD, and S-level missions can only be done by elite ninjas.

For the three little ones - mainly Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin, it was their first time to carry out an S-level mission, which made them very excited.

As for Hatake Kakashi, although he is younger, he is actually already a Jonin and has completed S-level missions.

So, when he learned that the escort mission was S-level, Kakashi Hatake was still calm, but he was a little surprised that escorting two girls was an S-level mission. This was a treatment only the Daimyo of the Land of Fire could have - in the ninja world, only the Daimyo who escorted the leader of a major country could have the mission evaluation reach S-level.

This made the three little ones a little curious, and they didn't understand why the mission of protecting Fujimaru Tachibana and Kikyo could reach S level.

So, Uchiha Obito, who looked the dumbest among them, started yelling, "It's actually an S-rank mission, Rin, and that idiot Kakashi, why do you think the escort mission is an S-rank mission?"

Upon hearing this, Fujimaru Tachibana subconsciously looked at Uchiha Obito. Kikyo had no reaction, while Hatake Kakashi looked at Uchiha Obito with emotionless eyes, and Nohara Rin showed an awkward but polite smile.

Then, Nohara Lin quickly said to Uchiha Obito: "Obito, stop talking. This is very rude."

"Uh..." Uchiha Obito was stunned. He didn't quite understand why this was considered impolite. After all, in his opinion, it was just a question out of curiosity.
