Chapter 680

Because when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.

Once the Hidden Leaf Village shows signs of decline, other ninja villages will be unable to resist taking advantage of the situation, such as the Hidden Cloud Village.

The first three Ninja World Wars were expanded from points to surfaces in this way, and finally became a complete mess.

"Our Hidden Leaf Village should take the initiative to attack and give the Hidden Mist Village a head-on blow so that they dare not invade!"

Danzo Shimura stood up and said very aggressively.

"The situation in the Hidden Mist Village is currently unclear; doing this will only give other ninja villages an opportunity."

Tsunade glanced at him and said calmly.

"Tsunade is right; just do as Itachi say."

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately agreed.

"Hiruzen, Itachi..."

Danzo Shimura subconsciously clenched his fists.

"Tsunade, who do Itachi think should go as the advance force?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi ignored Danzo Shimura and asked again.

"The Hyuga clan."

Tsunade pondered for a moment and said.

The Hyuga clan possesses the Byakugan and is best able to deal with sudden situations.

And they are not just pure reconnaissance ninjas; they also have extremely strong combat power.

Of course, since it is an advance force, it cannot be just ninjas from the Hyuga clan.

In fact, Hiruzen Sarutobi was asking who would serve as the commander of the advance force.

Hiashi Hyuga couldn't help but be stunned upon hearing this.

Although both the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan would go to the battlefield, they usually wouldn't become commanders.

This involves Hiruzen Sarutobi's art of balance.

He doesn't want the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan to make too many contributions on the battlefield.

Although Tsunade hasn't become Hokage yet, Hiashi Hyuga has already felt the difference between her and Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Alright then."

Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

Tsunade is already the frontline commander; if he refutes her, it is questioning his own appointment.

"Hiashi."

Hiruzen Sarutobi ordered, "After the meeting ends, Itachi will immediately lead one thousand ninjas to the southeast border of the Land of Fire."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Hiashi Hyuga said sternly.

This is a rare opportunity for the Hyuga clan to make a contribution.

Advance forces are often the first to engage with the enemy.

"Who should be responsible for intelligence?"

Danzo Shimura suddenly asked.

"Anbu."

Hiruzen Sarutobi replied.

"Anbu is directly under the Hokage, Hiruzen, and Itachi have to sit in the Hidden Leaf Village."

Danzo Shimura took the initiative to ask for the task, saying, "Why not hand over intelligence to me? I have been in charge of the Root and have many years of experience."

"Tsunade is the frontline commander; just let the Anbu take orders directly from her."

Hiruzen Sarutobi saw through Danzo Shimura's thoughts at a glance.

He still wants power.

Upon hearing this, Danzo Shimura's face stiffened.

Being rejected again made him completely understand Hiruzen Sarutobi's attitude.

Fine, since Itachi are heartless, don't blame me for being unrighteous.

Danzo Shimura fell into silence and did not speak again until the Jonin meeting ended.

"Let's leave it at that for now; we'll discuss it after the Hidden Mist Village reacts."

Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up and said, "Go and get ready now, meeting adjourned."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Everyone answered in unison.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi left, Tsunade was immediately surrounded.

As the frontline commander, she should be responsible for coordination at this time.

"Lady Tsunade, I'll go back to the ninja academy first."

Seeing this, Kitazawa said.

"Handle the affairs of the ninja academy well; Itachi are going with me this time."

Tsunade reminded.

If Kitazawa were an ordinary ninja academy teacher, he naturally wouldn't need to go.

But his strength is already among the best of the Jonin, and going to the battlefield can exert a greater effect.

Besides, this war started because of him, and not going would have a certain impact on his reputation.

"Yeah."

Kitazawa nodded.

He definitely has to go.

Because only he knows that the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karatachi is being controlled.

And if Itachi want to end the war, Itachi have to lift his control first.

【The war that started because of Itachi should end because of Itachi.】

【Current Task: Help the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karatachi lift control.】

【Task Reward: 30% Senju clan bloodline and 20% Byakugan purity.】

【Do Itachi accept?】

Kitazawa widened his eyes.

This task reward is truly unprecedentedly generous.

He already has 70% Senju clan bloodline and 30% Byakugan purity.

If he completes this task, his Senju clan bloodline can reach 100%, and his Byakugan purity can also reach 50%.

Without a doubt, 100% Senju clan bloodline must still have special abilities.

As for 50% Byakugan purity, it's hard to say.

However, the possibility of having special abilities is also very high.

Kitazawa was even more curious about what would happen after 100% Byakugan purity.

Could it be the Tenseigan?

But he felt it was unlikely.

The Tenseigan is on par with the Rinnegan, and the system wouldn't let him get it so easily.

Kitazawa felt that after increasing to 100% Byakugan purity, it would probably turn into the Byakugan of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon.

But it's too early to think about these things now.

Matching the generous task reward is the corresponding task difficulty.

This task looks very simple at first glance, but it is particularly troublesome.

Because the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karatachi will not appear on the front line immediately.

Kitazawa either has to find a way to sneak into the Hidden Mist Village or find a way to force him to the front line.

Both of these methods are too difficult.

The Hidden Mist Village is the enemy's base camp.

Kitazawa will definitely be finished if he is exposed.

As for making the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karatachi go to the front line, it is not that easy either.

But it's relatively better.

As long as the Hidden Mist Village retreats steadily, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karatachi will definitely not be able to sit still in the rear.

After Kitazawa accepted the task, he left the conference room.

Kakashi Hatake walked with him.

"Kakashi, are Itachi going to participate in this war?"

Kitazawa asked curiously.

"I listen to the Hokage's arrangements."

Kakashi Hatake paused and said, "If possible, I'd rather teach."

As for war, he has participated in too much and lost too much.

Blind killing has no meaning.

After teaching in the genius class for two months, he likes his current life more.

"That's good."

Kitazawa said with a light smile, "If we both go, Senior Kosuke will be too busy."

Kakashi Hatake was slightly stunned.

Does this mean Kitazawa is going to participate in the war?

But thinking about it carefully, it's normal.

This war is closely related to Kitazawa, and it's hard for him to avoid it.

"Go back to school and have a meeting; I'll arrange everything."

Kitazawa secretly thought that this was a coincidence.

His original plan was to let the students of the genius class go to other classes as tutors for this last month.

This training will definitely be affected and fall into a semi-stagnant state.

It's just right to wait for him to return after ending the war and continue.

It's just that I don't know how long this war will last.

The two returned to the ninja academy.

Because the Jonin meeting lasted for more than an hour, the last challenge segment of the practical exam had already ended.

At this time, the students of the genius class had all gone home, and the playground was empty.

"I'll go call Senior Kosuke."

Kakashi Hatake took the initiative to say.

"Yeah."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "I'll go call Iruka; Itachi all come to my office in the end."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi Hatake disappeared on the spot.
