Chapter 91: I Really Want to Run Away
"Two years? Two years!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed in anger.
"In two years, the battlefields at Sunagakure and Iwagakure will probably have reached a conclusion!"
When is it needed?
Sarutobi Hiruzen reads the battle reports from the Kumogakure battlefield every day.
These days, if Aoyama Ryūun were a little more serious, he wouldn't even need two weeks, let alone two years, to beat that bunch of Kumogakure muscleheads back to their home.
Isn't it obvious that he doesn't want to provide support?
Danzō, standing on the side, was also somewhat indignant. He frowned and said:
"Since Aoyama Ryūun won't return to support, then dispatch one thousand ninjas. With him there anyway, even if half the ninjas are transferred away, nothing will happen!"
Danzō was serious.
But the Anbu listening was a bit hesitant.
"Speak!"
"What's wrong, just say it!"
Seeing the Anbu hesitate, Danzō said coldly.
"Yes!"
Being stared at by Shimura Danzō like that, the Anbu was a bit scared and immediately said:
"Your subordinate also said that, it's just that, the reply given by Lord Ryūun was... he told me to get lost!"
That's right, Aoyama Ryūun's answer is always that concise and clear.
"..."
Shimura Danzō did not answer.
Only a pair of angry eyes widened further.
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand helplessly, signaling that the Anbu could leave.
Even though he analyzed it the same way internally, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew clearly that now was not the time to discuss these things.
"Calm down, Danzō. We are on the battlefield now!"
Getting angry at this time is meaningless.
First, let's fight Kirigakure.
At this moment, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, who were also in the conference room, nodded along.
"Yes, calm down!"
"Do you want a cup of tea?"
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura were sitting by a table not far away.
Each had a cup of tea.
They were used to throwing their weight around.
Even on the battlefield, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura ordered their subordinates to brew tea for them.
"Drink tea?"
He was feeling angry inside.
Now seeing the leisurely appearance of Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, Danzō raised his eyebrows, walked straight over, and kicked over the table in front of them.
Although the tea cups were overturned on the ground...
"Drink, drink, drink! Drink my ass! Do you know where this is? You two idiots, useless trash! If you dare utter another word of nonsense, believe it or not, this old man will kill you!"
"We..."
So aggrieved.
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura wanted to cry.
We just asked you to drink a cup of tea, is there a need for such a big reaction?
But the most crucial thing was that they didn't dare say anything back to Danzō.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, watching from the side, just shook his head slightly.
As for persuading Danzō?
Forget it! Sarutobi Hiruzen himself felt that these two old things seemed to have mental issues.
Just for the sake of face, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't say it.
Now that Danzō was helping him say it, Sarutobi Hiruzen was happy; why would he stop it?
At this moment, an Anbu figure flickered into the conference room.
"Lord Hokage, Kirigakure ninjas have started to move!"
"..."
Hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire conference room became solemn.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō both had stern and murderous expressions.
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura's expressions flickered with some fear.
They began to exchange glances.
"This isn't good, is it?"
Somewhat hesitant. After all, it was too shameful.
But on second thought, compared to life, losing face was nothing at all!
Danzō, standing on the side, seemed to see through Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura's thoughts.
He said coldly with a sharp look:
"If this old man sees you running away, he will use you as the first example!"
Danzō couldn't possibly not know the character of these two old fellows.
"Slandering people!"
Being told this by Danzō, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura jumped as if their feet were scalded.
They looked at Danzō with righteous indignation.
"We are Elders of Konoha, how could we run away!"
"Slander, slander!"
"Hiruzen, look at Danzō, he's slandering us!"
Talking and talking, they dragged Sarutobi Hiruzen into it.
Like tattling.
"..."
To this, Sarutobi Hiruzen just rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention.
After all, Danzō's words were also Sarutobi Hiruzen's words. Did they really think he couldn't see that these two wanted to run?
"Hmph!"
Danzō snorted coldly.
As for whether Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura had objections, Danzō didn't care at all.
"Anyway, this old man just needs to be clear: as long as you dare run, you are dead!"
"..."
No answer.
Danzō didn't care either. After withdrawing his gaze, he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Prepare to start the war with Kirigakure!"
With Sarutobi Hiruzen's command, the one thousand ninjas he brought all mobilized.
Perhaps feeling that following Lord Hokage, failure was completely impossible...
So even facing around four thousand Kirigakure ninjas, these people showed no worry at all.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen, the person involved, did not have such confidence.
After sighing, his eyes were complex.
He only hoped that the Sunagakure and Iwagakure battlefields could quickly achieve an advantage so they could come to support.
"You two!"
Out of the corner of his eye, Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed...
Those two fellows, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura...
Were silently retreating, trying hard to reduce their presence. Obviously, they didn't want to follow along.
Sarutobi Hiruzen rolled his eyes and said directly:
"Both of you follow this old man!"
"...Un-understood!"
At this point, what could they say?
They couldn't really run away; otherwise, they wouldn't want those Elder positions anymore.
When Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others had gathered all the ninjas and set out...
They faced the Kirigakure ninja village, which had as many as four thousand people.
