Konoha teaches, then stands in the sky

Because of the Flying Thunder God, Mu Yue has a strong ability to save her life and can escape even if she is defeated.

After receiving the mission, Mu Yue left the Hokage Building to summon the disciples other than Metkai and told them about participating in the war.

The reason why Metkai was not notified was because Sarutobi Hiruzen gave Mu Yue a list of support troops, and Met Kai's team was also among them, so Mu Yue did not notify him specifically.

Mu Yue informed Kakashi that they were because Kakashi's team was not among them, and Mu Yue wanted to take them there.

"Battlefield..." Zhishui's eyes flickered. Among Mu Yue's disciples, he was the only one who had never been on the battlefield.

Obito looked indifferent. He already had a lot of battlefield combat experience. The first time was when he suffered an accident during his internship and participated in a big melee on the battlefield. Later, Minato Namikaze brought them to the battlefield to perform many war missions.

"Because the Sandaime has entrusted me with some important tasks, I cannot lead you to fight like usual every time on the battlefield." Muyue reminded.

Although he would definitely send shadow clones to protect his disciples, Mu Yue didn't want them to know about it, as this would prevent them from facing a real desperate situation.

Obito's expression changed. Without the protection of Muyue Sage, the risk factor would have been greatly increased.

His experiences are all covered by someone, sometimes it's Mu Yue, sometimes it's Namikaze Minato.

"Teacher Muyue, I think there must be a vice-captain. If you are not around, Teacher Muyue, the vice-captain will take command." Kakashi thought for a while and said.

Although Obito rarely fails at critical moments, Kakashi doesn't want to gamble. If he becomes the vice-captain, he can command Obito in a legitimate manner.

"Okay then, you four will vote for yourselves." Mu Yue nodded.

In the end, Kakashi won the title of vice-captain by three votes. Except for Obito, who voted for Nohara Rin, everyone else voted for Kakashi.

Chapter 422 Participating in the War

Mu Yue asked her disciples to check their belongings, and after making sure nothing was missing, she led her disciples to the battlefield on the east coast of the Country of Fire.

"Xiao Lin, why did you vote for Kakashi?" Obito couldn't help but ask Nohara Lin on the way.

Compared to Kakashi's three votes and his zero vote, Obito was more concerned that Nohara Rin voted for Kakashi instead of herself or him.

Because it gives Obito the feeling that Nohara Rin trusts Kakashi more than him.

"I feel that Kakashi is very suitable to be the vice-captain and will be very reliable." Nohara Lin thought for a while and replied with a soft smile.

Nohara Rin trusted Obito in other matters, but when it came to leading a team, Nohara Rin still felt that Kakashi was more reliable.

This is not a conjecture, but a conclusion drawn by Nohara Lin based on their experience in performing tasks.

Kakashi can always analyze the most beneficial action for them based on the existing situation, and Obito may perform exceptionally well when encountering a powerful enemy, but only in combat, it is impossible to expect Obito to formulate tactics.

But telling the truth directly might be a bit hurtful, so Nohara Rin just said her feelings.

Obito's face suddenly fell. There is nothing more uncomfortable than a girl he likes praising another boy in front of him.

Of course there is, that is, the boy being praised is still his mortal enemy.

"Damn Kakashi!" Obito roared sadly in his heart.

In Obito's mind at this moment, Kakashi's image changed from a friend with a bad personality to a naturally evil Hatake brat.

It was even more uncomfortable for Obito to think that he had lost to Kakashi in the recent civil war and had to complete a bunch of questions.

When he thought that it would be even harder for Kakashi to catch up after learning the powerful new moves taught by Mugetsu, Obito instantly felt that it was even more difficult.

In just a minute, Obito thought of all the things that made Kakashi uncomfortable.

"It's all Kakashi's fault. This time I must defeat him on the battlefield." Obito was secretly furious, and his eyes lit up with flames when he looked at Kakashi.

Feeling Obito's gaze, Kakashi turned slightly and looked at Obito for a second, then turned back with an indifferent expression.

Obito's brain circuit is too strange, he does things carelessly, and he is easy to get into trouble. Kakashi was worried about Obito's safety, so he and Mu Yue proposed to have a vice-captain.

With the status of deputy captain, Obito will have no choice but to be obedient even if he is dissatisfied. After all, this is what Mu Yue personally recognized, and it may be more effective for Obito than the Hokage's words.

Seeing Kakashi's nonchalant expression, Obito became even more angry. Kakashi was simply saying that you fell down before I even took it seriously.

Shisui saw Obito's expression in his eyes, opened his mouth, but ultimately did not say any words of comfort.

Self-awareness is very important. If Obito is given the illusion that he can lead the team just to comfort him, it may cause problems in the future.

We are all classmates who get along day and night, and know each other quite well.

On the surface, the voting was a multiple-choice question, but Shisui seemed to have only one answer, and that was Kakashi.

Not to mention anything else, Kakashi beats everyone in terms of experience alone. Because he graduated early, Kakashi is already a ninja with five years of experience.

After arriving at the ninja troop camp, Mu Yue was invited to a meeting before she could talk too much to her disciples.

As soon as Mu Yue walked into the large tent that served as the conference room, she saw many "acquaintances".

The first thing I saw was the expressionless troop commander Orochimaru sitting in front of the long table.

Mu Yue calmly gave Orochimaru an appraisal.

[Name: Orochimaru]

[Chakra: 142000]

[Potential: S]

【技能：阴属性查克拉性质变化（精通：4800/15000）、风属性查克拉性质变化（精通：3040/15000）、火属性查克拉性质变化（精通：2008/15000）、水属性查克拉性质变化（精通级）、土属性查克拉性质变化（精通级）、潜影蛇手（精通级）……】

Orochimaru's profile is somewhat similar to that of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he also has an incredible amount of ninjutsu, including S-level forbidden jutsu and D-level common ninjutsu, which is very complete.

However, unlike Sarutobi Hiruzen, Orochimaru is most proficient in the snake ninjutsu he developed himself, rather than the five basic attribute ninjutsu.

Judging from the panel, the one who is most promising to inherit Sarutobi Hiruzen's abilities should be Orochimaru, who has many mastery-level changes in nature.

As for why Orochimaru did not choose to inherit the mantle of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mu Yue thinks there are two possibilities.

The first is that Orochimaru feels that he is not as good as Sarutobi Hiruzen in terms of ninjutsu talent. If he follows the path of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he will eventually become a junior, so Orochimaru chooses to go his own way.

This conjecture stems from the proficiency of Orochimaru's skills. Although the nature of the proficiency level has changed a lot, the proficiency is not particularly outstanding.

The second is that Orochimaru's desire for immortality exceeds his desire for strength. Is Sarutobi Hiruzen's path strong? Of course it is. It is difficult to have an opponent without encountering cheating ninjas, but there is obviously no way to achieve immortality by combining ninjutsu. , so Orochimaru gave up combining ninjutsu to study forbidden techniques.

This is Mu Yue's guess based on the level of the original Orochimaru.

"There is still a lot of room for improvement." Mu Yue thought as she recalled the panel that Orochimaru identified at the previous Jonin meeting.

Perhaps because of the war, they frequently fought against strong men of the same level. Although they did not make as much progress as young people like Namikaze Minato, strong men like Orochimaru and Jiraiya were also making progress.

Mu Yue's eyes turned slightly. Sitting on Orochimaru's right was Nara Shikaku with a pineapple head, one of the contemporary Ino Shikaku.

[Name: Nara Shikaku]

[Chakra: 23000]

[Skills: Yin attribute chakra property change (2600/15000), shadow imitation (mastery level)...]

On the left is Hyuga Hizashi, the younger brother of the contemporary Hyuga family head.

[Name: Hinata Hizashi]

[Chakra: 28000]

[Skill: Soft Fist (Mastery: 2640/15000)...]

"Muyue-kun, please sit down." Orochimaru spoke first, and his magnetic voice sounded in the tent.

"Everyone should know Muyue-kun, you don't need any special introduction from me." Orochimaru asked, looking around.

The Jonin in the camp nodded and greeted Mu Yue.

"Of course we know him. Jounin Muzuki is so young and promising. He is an excellent jounin in Konoha."

"I once had the honor of hearing about the achievements of Mu Yue Jonin in the Grass Country War..."

Although Mu Yue's feat of defeating Ye Cang was not widely publicized, Mu Yue still had a certain degree of fame in Konoha. After all, he taught more and more people and also made some contributions on the battlefield.

Since they were in a meeting, the Jonin didn't say much and soon became quiet.

Then Orochimaru looked at Nara Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku nodded and stood up.

"I will explain the current situation on the battlefield below. If you have any questions, you can ask them directly." Nara Shikaku said seriously.

In fact, half of the Jonin in the conference room were recently transferred, including Commander Orochimaru.

A ninja of Orochimaru's level is naturally qualified to receive all kinds of detailed information provided by Konoha, but some ordinary jounin do not have this treatment. Of course, this is also due to a certain degree of confidentiality.

Nara Shikaku's job today is to let them understand the battlefield situation and the tasks they need to complete.

Nara Shikaku first circled Kirigakure's login point and main scope of activities on the big map, and explained the approximate number of Kirigakure's troops in the Land of Fire and their combat methods.

"The Kirigakure ninja troops are usually equipped with at least one Kirigakure ninja who masters the art of Kirigakure. Try to avoid head-on confrontations when the number is not dominant and there are no sensing ninjas." Nara Shikaku reminded.

He did not explain the effect of the Kirigakure Jutsu. The Kirigakure Jutsu is the most famous ninjutsu in Kirigakure Village. All of you here are Konoha jounin, so they don't even know this common sense.

A Konoha jounin frowned slightly. The Kirigakure technique was really difficult to deal with, and it directly turned the normal battlefield into darkness and light.

Hyuga Hizashi's expression remained unchanged. This is why Sarutobi Hiruzen sent a large number of Hyuga ninjas to the battlefield of Kirigakure Village. The Byakugan of their Hyuga clan is the best perception ninjutsu.

Finally, Nara Shikaku talked about the Kirigakure strong men worth noting on the battlefield.

"Gotachibana Yagura is extremely good at water escape. He looks young but is actually an experienced old ninja. He is the strongest Kirigakure ninja that has ever appeared on the battlefield."

"Mizuki Han, an ice escape ninja from the Snow Clan in Kirigakure Village, is good at blood succession limited ice escape and is very powerful."

"Ki Leng Zangetsu is a ninja from the Ki Leng clan in Kirigakure Village. He is good at water escape and can use the water transformation technique that is immune to physical attacks. He is very powerful."

"All members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen need to pay attention. Every ninja in the Seven Ninja Swordsmen is an elite jounin. Their strength cannot be underestimated. The combined force of the seven is extremely dangerous. Please be careful when meeting on the battlefield." Nara Shikaku said with a serious face.

In terms of personal strength, it is impossible for any one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to compare with the three people he listed separately. However, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen often go out collectively to assassinate as a team, but Goju Yagura and the others do not do this.

The Jonin in the camp took down all the information Nara Shikaku said.

Kirigakure is the most low-key great ninja village. Because it rarely participates in wars on the mainland, other ninja villages know less about their intelligence.

Just like the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, many Konoha jounin have only heard of this name, but they don't know what their specific abilities are.

Mu Yue showed a thoughtful expression.

After all, there is a gap between reality and comics. Even in Konoha, he got to know some outstanding Jonin who were not in the plot. It is reasonable for Kirigakure, which has very few plots, to have two strong men he didn't know.

After finishing speaking, Nara Shikaku sat down and nodded to Mu Yue.

Due to his position, Nara Shikaku received Muzuki's specific strength information specially provided by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After all, he is a military advisor. If he doesn't even know the strength of his own personnel, he won't be able to make the most appropriate battle plan.

After reading the information given by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Nara Shikaku was a little surprised.

Nara Shikaku is no stranger to Mugetsu because he and Jiraiya fought against the tailed beasts on the battlefield of Mugetsu Country.

But the information given by Sarutobi Hiruzen still made Nara Shikaku shocked by Mu Yue's strength.

Helping Jiraiya defeat the Jinchūriki as a support is completely different from Mu Yue defeating the hero of Sunagakure, Hayakura alone.

Nara Shikaku was not present in the war in the Land of Grass. According to the Konoha newspaper article, Jiraiya was the main force, while Minato Namikaze was the strongest supporter, and then Muzuki.

And according to the length of the article, Mu Yue, the second assistant, is quite different from Namikaze Minato.

What is the nature of Mu Yue's defeat of Yakura alone? Yakura's reputation in Sunagakure Village is stronger than Namikaze Minato's reputation in Konoha. The difference in meaning between the two achievements is too big.

Nara Shikaku believes that if Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't been concerned about the thoughts of Sunagakure Village, Mu Yue would have become famous in the ninja world by following Hagura's reputation.

There is no need for Mu Yue to say it herself, Konoha will take the initiative to help Mu Yue promote it. After all, this is a ninja from his own ninja village, and publicity can attract commissions.

But now the situation is a bit embarrassing. Sunagakure is the only great ninja village that has not gone to war with Konoha. If Sunagakure is unhappy about this and declares war with Konoha, then Konoha will really pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons.

Therefore, Konoha not only cannot help Mu Yue promote it now, but also has to be careful that this information is known to too many people to prevent it from spreading widely.

In Nara Shikaku's heart, Mu Yue is the second strongest person on the battlefield, with a strategic position second only to commander Orochimaru.

However, it is difficult for Nara Shikaku to judge whether Muzuki can beat Minazuki Han or Demon Cangetsu. Ninjas cannot judge the winner or lose before there is a specific fight.

As for Gouju Yagura, Orochimaru will take on this role.

Mu Yue smiled and responded, Nara Shikaku is a smart person, and it is easier to deal with smart people.

"Mu Yue-kun, please stay." After the meeting, Orochimaru called Mu Yue alone.

Nara Shikaku has information about Mu Yue's strength, while Orochimaru has more detailed information about Mu Yue. He even knows that Mu Yue was a root ninja before.

The source of this information was none other than Orochimaru's partner, Root Leader Shimura Danzo.
