Konoha teaches, then stands in the sky

Children usually start attending ninja school at the age of five or six. Yamato is already eight years old now. If it weren't for his special status, he should have gone to ninja school long ago.

Mu Yue had the idea of ​​sending Yamato to school a long time ago, but she couldn't explain it to Danzo Shimura and it never went ahead.

"Are we going to the Ninja School?" Yamato answered, restraining himself from looking at the extremely tempting dishes.

This was the meal made by Mu Yue, and he felt that Mu Yue should eat it first.

"Well, after graduating from the Ninja Academy, you will be an official Konoha Ninja." Mu Yue saw what Yamato was thinking and picked up a piece of meat and put it in her bowl.

Strictly speaking, Yamato is actually an illegal resident, and his identity was arranged by Danzo Shimura.

Before Yamato, his identity as a Root ninja was not registered in the Root member directory. He was a ninja only recognized by Danzo Shimura and was not considered a true Konoha ninja.

Of course, with Shimura Danzo's power, it is not difficult to arrange a ninja identity for Yamato, but Yamato is too weak, and Shimura Danzo is worried about being discovered by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"How long does it take to study in the Ninja School to become a ninja?" Yamato picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth and immediately ate some rice. After chewing for a while, he showed a happy expression.

"If it's fast, it can be a month or even two weeks, and if it's slow, it can be six years. I personally recommend that you stay for more than two years." Mu Yue said after thinking for a while.

Yamato was considered to be the most miserable among his disciples. He was first captured and became a test subject for Hashirama's cell experiments.

He survived with difficulty but lost his memory, and was eventually picked up by Danzo Shimura. He was PUA'ed by Danzo Shimura for a long time and indoctrinated with his twisted ideas.

So Mu Yue hopes that Yamato can have a happy campus life.

With Yamato's current strength, going to the Ninja School is a complete dimensionality reduction attack. He is a pure novel protagonist.

When Yamato heard the number six years, his eyes widened slightly. He had only 1.336 years in his life.

"Teacher Mu Yue, do I have a hope of becoming a Wood Release Ninja like the Shodaime-sama?" Yamato asked suddenly without answering the question.

"It's difficult, almost impossible." Mu Yue answered as tactfully as possible.

What was abnormal about Hashirama Senju was not his Wood Release, but his terrifying chakra.

The chakra of ordinary tailed beasts is already so terrifying that it is beyond the reach of ordinary ninjas. Compared with the Nine-Tails, the chakra of ordinary tailed beasts is much worse.

But compared to Hashirama Senju, the Nine-Tails could only move back a little, which shows how terrifying the amount of chakra of Hashirama Senju was.

"So there is still a possibility? I want to become a ninja like the Shodaime-sama who can protect the village and prevent war." Yamato said with a determined face.

"I want to go to the Ninja School and graduate as a ninja as quickly as possible. When the time comes, please train me more strictly, Teacher Mu Yue!"

The death of Shimura Danzo made him a little sad, but what made Yamato more uneasy was the future. If Mu Yue also sacrificed like Shimura Danzo...

He wanted stronger power, power that could protect the people and things he cared about.

Mu Yue showed a somewhat helpless expression. Sometimes precocity is not a good thing. Why are they so responsible? Children who are not even ten years old should just enjoy their lives.

"Even if you want to become a ninja like the Shodaime, it's not something that can be achieved overnight. You have to study in a ninja school for at least a year." Mu Yue said, tapping Yamato with her index and middle fingers together.

……

The Land of Hot Springs, the base of the Konoha Ninja Force.

"He died just like that? What a pity." Orochimaru put down the information in his hand, and his normally expressionless face showed a slight fluctuation.

He received the news of Danzo Shimura's death, including not only the official announcement from Konoha, but also some information circulating in the ninja world.

"The experiment has to be suspended..." Orochimaru sighed slightly.

He was not sad about the death of Danzo Shimura. Just as Danzo Shimura only used him as a tool for experiments, Orochimaru also only regarded Danzo Shimura as a useful partner, not a companion like Jiraiya and Tsunade.

What worries Orochimaru is whether his experiment can proceed smoothly and whether his cooperation with Danzo Shimura has been exposed.

They have done too many things together that crossed the line. Once exposed, Orochimaru would not even think about competing for Hokage, and Sarutobi Hiruzen would spare his life out of old friendship.

Orochimaru originally wanted to return to Konoha to eliminate the information that might expose him, but the sudden action of Kumogakure made Orochimaru's goal fail.

Changing generals before a war is a taboo. Without a suitable reason, the Konoha high-ups would not allow him to return to Konoha at this time.

After discovering the difficulty of returning to Konoha, Orochimaru simply did not apply, as it was impossible for him to be approved anyway.

Orochimaru now very much hopes that Danzo Shimura has properly dealt with the traces, because after being exposed, he will have no choice but to defect.

Orochimaru did not sit idly by and wait for death. He actively tried to contact his subordinates in Konoha, wanting to understand the situation in Konoha and the impact of Danzo Shimura's death on Konoha.

He was not greedy for his power in Konoha. Both power and money were just means for him to achieve his goals. He was not obsessed with power and money themselves.

But Orochimaru was reluctant to give up everything in Konoha. He had worked hard for many years to achieve the current results. If he defected, he would have to start from scratch, which would waste a lot of time.

Human energy is always limited, even for a genius like Orochimaru.

When he focused his attention on Shimura Danzo and his affairs, and the war with the Hidden Cloud Village, he didn't have much energy to analyze.

In this way, the Hidden Cloud Ninja troops quietly arrived at the Land of Rice by boat and began their operation.

Chapter 621: Special Anbu is established

In the northern part of the Land of Rice, a large group of Kumogakure ninjas gathered together, and the fourth generation Ai, as the commander, stood in front of everyone.

"No matter what problems we encounter, we must reach the border of the Fire Nation within the planned time!" said the Fourth Generation Ai with a serious face.

The ninja force sent by Kumogakure this time consists of a total of 1,200 ninjas.

Such a large number of ninja troops marching at high speed in a small country like Tianguo Country would easily be noticed.

In order not to reveal their whereabouts, they were divided into twelve teams and acted one after another.

The Land of Rice and the Land of Hot Springs border each other. If they are exposed too early, Orochimaru's troops will arrive quickly, and all previous preparations will be in vain.

"We will definitely complete the mission!" The captains of each team responded one after another.

"Let's go!" The fourth generation Ai nodded with satisfaction and gave the order.

Following the order from the Fourth Generation Ai, the leading teams quickly headed in different directions.

On the other side, the Kumogakure ninja team from the Land of Hot Springs also began to take action.

Not only did they not hide their whereabouts, they also took the initiative to appear near the town of Yuzhi Country and launched radical assassinations against Konoha ninjas, as if they were going to eliminate all Konoha ninjas in Yuzhi Country.

The Konoha ninjas of the Land of Hot Springs quickly made various preparations for battle, because this was not the first time that the Hidden Cloud Village had done this, and it was like this every time they launched a large-scale attack.

"Send more patrol teams to focus on monitoring the border between the Land of Hot Springs and the Land of Rice." This was Orochimaru's response to Kumogakure's actions.

Not only does intelligence need to be gathered for battles between ninjas, but war intelligence for ninja units is equally important.

He couldn't act rashly before obtaining intelligence on the Hidden Cloud Ninja Force.

…………

The land of fire, Konoha.

In order to make up for the power of the Root, Sarutobi Hiruzen gave Mu Yue a task, requiring Mu Yue to quickly build an Anbu team that can play a role in the war.

There is no doubt that this is a very difficult task, more difficult than any previous teaching task.

Fortunately, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't just give orders and let Mu Yue work hard on her own.

Sarutobi Hiruzen gathered the ninjas who had previously left the Anbu, and asked some of them who were willing to return to the Anbu to join the training team and become Mu Yue's subordinates.

Mu Yue basically doesn't need to worry too much about these ninjas. As long as they undergo a period of rehabilitation, they can become qualified Anbu ninjas.

Then there was a group of promising team members. Sarutobi Hiruzen personally found the major ninja clans and selected some ninjas from their families to join the training team.

Although ordinary ninjas are not necessarily worse than ninjas from the ninja clan, most of the ninja clan are still better than ordinary ninjas because they have a complete training system.

When all the preparations for the training team were completed, Shisui also received a notification from Mu Yue.

In order to leave a good impression on his colleagues, Shisui carefully checked his image before leaving and made sure there was nothing wrong before setting off.

Perhaps because he was too young, when Shisui walked all the way to the equipment department to receive the equipment, almost every ANBU who passed by glanced at him.

Fortunately, Mu Yue had already informed some Anbu in advance, so there was no incident of ninja complaining about "whose kid" and driving Shisui out of the base.

"This is your complete set of equipment. If it is damaged, you can come here to get new equipment." The Anbu member of the Equipment Department took out a long box and handed it to Shisui.

"Thank you." Shisui took the box with both hands and nodded in thanks.

Then Shisui went to the changing room according to his memory.

When Mu Yue notified him, she showed him the map of the root base. Shisui memorized the entire map. He remembered clearly which room had what function and where it was.

Shisui opened the box in the dressing room and found only three items in it, a fox mask, a long sword, and at the bottom was a set of standard Anbu combat uniforms.

The training team is a special organization of the Anbu, and in essence it is still the Anbu, so its equipment is the same as that of the Anbu.

Shisui quickly changed into the ANBU combat uniform and put on a mask, then locked his own clothes in a cabinet.

After changing into his uniform, Shisui went to the training team captain's office.

dong dong.

Shisui knocked gently on the wooden door of the office.

"Enter."

A voice that was extremely familiar to Shisui entered Shisui's ears.

Shisui pushed open the wooden door and walked into the office.

"Teacher Mu Yue." Shisui blurted out as he looked at Mu Yue sitting in the office chair, and then changed his words to "Captain Mu Yue."

He was here to report to the training team, and Shisui thought it would be better to be more serious at this time.

"There's no need for that. We can just proceed as usual when there are no other people around." Mu Yue said with a smile.

After listening to Mu Yue's words, Shisui relaxed a little.

Due to lack of time, the training team base was basically the same as the previous root base, and the overall feeling it gave was darkness and depression. Coupled with the dark side that Anbu Shisui had never understood, it was inevitable that there would be some tension.

"Generally speaking, the Anbu will have their own code names, and they will call each other by code names when performing tasks. You can give yourself a code name first." Mu Yue said, taking out a small notebook.

"For example, my code name is Night."

Ye is Mu Yue’s code name at the root, and he doesn’t plan to change it. After all, code names are meaningless to him.

Ordinary Anbu members use nicknames to hide information, but Mu Yue is so famous that no code names or masks are of any use.

"Then call it fire." Shisui said after thinking for a while.

He wanted to be the fire that lit the Uchiha's path, hoping that his actions would burn away the Uchiha's predicament like flames burn away weeds.

"Are you sure it's fire? Although it's not impossible to change it, it will cause some minor troubles." Mu Yue asked again.

After getting Shisui's approval, Mu Yue helped Shisui fill in the information.

"Go meet your colleagues." Mu Yue looked at the time and stood up and said.

Shishui nodded and followed Muyue to the training team's meeting room.

As it was still early for the agreed meeting time, there were no ninjas in the meeting room when Mu Yue and his friends arrived. The ninjas arrived one after another after they had been sitting for a while.

"Captain Mu Yue." The Anbu members who came in greeted Mu Yue one after another.

Only squad leaders and above can participate in this meeting.

In the current training team, except for Shisui, the squad leaders and team leaders are all re-employed old ANBU. Although it was their first day in the training team, they had already received information about the training team from Sarutobi Hiruzen and knew that Mu Yue was the captain of the training team.

Mu Yue responded with a smile.

When the tenth Anbu ninja walked into the conference room and sat down, Mu Yue coughed twice and quickly swept his eyes over all the Anbu ninjas.

A normal Anbu team is composed of four sub-teams, each with 17 members, a team leader and four squads.

However, considering the actual situation, the training team currently has only two teams and eight classes, with a total of thirty-five ninjas in the entire training team.

"In the first month, ordinary training team members will mainly carry out intensive training in intelligence gathering, combat skills and other abilities. For training team members at the squad leader level and above, they will focus on learning the Dark Calling Technique." Mu Yue talked about her teaching arrangements.

Since they were all re-employed in the Anbu, the old Anbu members did not master the secret technique of Dark Calling, which is a must-learn for the Anbu now.

Fortunately, the new Anbu have many courses to learn. Mu Yue can let the old Anbu members master some of the Dark Calling Methods first, and then let the new Anbu members learn from the old Anbu members.

"He has become the captain of the Anbu at such a young age. He has a bright future." An Anbu squad leader sighed in his heart as he looked at Mu Yue's young face.

He had seen several ANBU captains, but he had never seen an ANBU captain as young as Mu Yue. Even Sarutobi Hiruzen's son was inferior to Mu Yue.

Shisui listened to Mu Yue's story very seriously, and from time to time he wrote down notes in the small notebook he carried with him.

He has a good memory, but he can't remember everything he hears.

The meeting lasted about an hour, and when Mu Yue said it was time to adjourn the meeting, Shisui closed his notes.
