Ninja school teacher, I can become stronger by teaching.

Chapter 577 You can go ahead
"It seems that Iwagakure attaches great importance to these spies." Jiraiya turned his head and looked around and said.

At that time, they were in a hurry to meet up with the support troops to fight an ambush and had no time to interrogate White Zetsu, so they only sent two ninjas to take White Zetsu to a hidden place and detain him.

However, what Jiraiya did not expect was that within just a few hours, the people from Iwagakure would be able to find White Zetsu and take him away.

It can almost be described as lightning fast.

It's just a few hours, normally it's not enough to ensure that there is nothing wrong with the spy.

After all, being a spy is very risky, and it is impossible to contact frequently several times a day.

As a result, not only did Iwagakure know that the spy had been exposed, but they even found and rescued him at an incredible speed, which really puzzled Jiraiya.

The time Iwagakure had to act was too short.

Before the ambush officially started, Iwagakure definitely didn't know that the spy had been exposed, otherwise the Iwagakure ninja troops would not have walked into the trap set by Mu Yue.

But it only takes an ambush to successfully find the person, which is a bit exaggerated in efficiency.

"But it's true. This thing is too powerful for use in war. I guess Iwagakure is very afraid that Konoha will also develop a similar product." Jiraiya sighed.

If it weren't for Mu Yue's ability to sense malicious intent, even if Jiraiya faced White Zetsu again after knowing the intelligence about White Zetsu, he would not have a good way to deal with White Zetsu's troubles.

It's really shameless that even the sensory ninja can't distinguish the transformation technique.

"We can only wait and see whether the village can come up with a response plan after the intelligence is reported." There was some worry in Namikaze Minato's eyes.

If no solution can be found, Mu Yue will probably have to deal with Iwagakure's troops for a long time before Iwagakure negotiates peace.

"I hope everything goes well." Mu Yue also made a worried expression and said, although his heart was calm as water at this moment.

Because Mu Yue had known about this matter for a long time, and even his shadow clone was involved.

Mu Yue doesn't want Konoha to get White Zetsu.

For Mu Yue, it is actually a good thing that Konoha knows that Uchiha Madara is alive.

The reason why he didn't want Konoha to get White Zetsu was because of White Zetsu itself.

Although White Zetsu may seem like just a weak intelligence tool, he is actually a treasure.

White Zetsu has Hashirama cells in his body, which would be a treasure in the Naruto world.

Moreover, the Hashirama cells in White Zetsu's body are not ordinary Hashirama cells, but the Hashirama cells cultivated by Uchiha Madara using the Outer Path Demon Statue.

If Konoha gets White Zetsu, with the power of Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru in Konoha, a part of White Zetsu's body will definitely fall into their hands.

If Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura figure out something by then, Mu Yue may not be able to control the situation.

However, although Mu Yue had the idea of ​​taking action, the fainted Konoha ninja had nothing to do with Mu Yue.

Two White Zetsu disguised as Konoha ninjas took action before Mu Yueying's clone.

Although Mu Yue didn't want to see Konoha get White Zetsu, he would not let White Zetsu go. After White Zetsu knocked out the guarding ninja, he came out and killed all five White Zetsu and put them into the sealing scroll.

Hashirama cells are indeed a good thing.

In the original work, Obito only has an ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan, and with the help of Hashirama's cells, he can use the Mangekyō abilities at will without any side effects.

If Shisui and Obito open the Mangekyō Sharingan in the future, and the Yang-style training that Mu Yue envisioned fails to solve the Mangekyō problem, that would be when these White Zetsu would come in handy.

……

Konoha Village.

Hokage Building, Hokage Office.

When receiving the information passed by Mu Yue, Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Konoha had defeated the two thousand ninja troops of Iwagakure, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.

This result far exceeded his expectations. Sarutobi Hiruzen's original idea was that the support troops would be successful if they could turn the disadvantage around and maintain a balance with Iwagakure.

When he saw the information related to White Zetsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed instantly. After reading the information, he immediately asked the Anbu at the door to convene a meeting of the top leaders.

"This is the latest intelligence from the front line. Let's take a look first." Sarutobi Hiruzen said in the conference room.

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen put the pipe into his mouth, took a deep breath, and then exhaled white smoke with a hint of worry on his face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's appearance made the other three senior executives unable to help but start to have wild thoughts.

"Could it be that the Land of Grass suffered another defeat? Well, this way Hiruzen will have no excuse not to use Orochimaru." Danzo Shimura thought to himself as he picked up the information in front of him.

The defeat in the Grass Land battlefield was a bad thing for Konoha, but a good thing for Danzo Shimura.

Danzo Shimura was very excited when he learned that Jiraiya was defeated by Iwagakure and had to flee with his troops.

Because this is a big stain that will cause Jiraiya's support rate in Konoha to drop, and it is also an opportunity for Orochimaru.

When he saw the words "Our army defeated the Iwagakure troops and annihilated more than 1,600 enemies", a question mark popped up in Shimura Danzo's mind. After reading it carefully several times, he found that he was not mistaken. It meant that we had won a great victory.

Danzo Shimura frowned slightly. The front-line troops won the battle, but Hiruzen Sarutobi still showed that expression. Was he trying to play a trick on him?

When he saw the intelligence from those Iwagakure spies, Danzo Shimura finally understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's worries.

They did win the battle, but the strength displayed by Iwagakure was worrying.

"There is actually such a transformation technique that can even deceive the perceptive ninjas." Mitomon En also showed a serious expression after reading the information.

Even Minato Namikaze could see the war potential of White Zetsu. These senior officials had also gone through various wars and of course could see the power of White Zetsu.

"It's really unexpected. No wonder the troops led by Jiraiya were defeated so thoroughly." Sarutobi Hiruzen said, stroking his mustache.

After receiving the news that Sarutobi Hiromichi had become a spy, Sarutobi Hiruzen spent a lot of effort conducting various investigations, but found almost no useful information.

He thought that Sarutobi Hiromichi hid it too well, but it turned out that the other party had no problem in the first place.

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen trying to make excuses for Jiraiya's defeat, Shimura Danzo opened his mouth to retort, but then closed it again.

Because at the meeting to select the support commander, Danzo Shimura strongly recommended Orochimaru. According to the current situation, the commander can only be Mu Yue.

With White Zetsu acting as a spy in Iwagakure, anyone other than Mu Yue may not be able to defeat the Iwagakure troops.

"It's you, Hiruzen, who has foresight to let Mu Yue command the support forces. Otherwise, the news that would have been reported back would not be a great victory, but a great defeat." Mito Menyan sighed.

If Mu Yue hadn't had the special ability to detect the spy and devise a counterattack plan, it would have been difficult for the Konoha Ninja Army to withstand the attack, let alone win. With almost half of the troops gone and the spy still undetectable, it was almost a hell level difficulty.

"This is also a pleasant surprise, but Mu Yue is indeed the most capable ninja in the new era." Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.

He also didn't expect that Mu Yue could win such a great victory. The reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen disagreed to mobilize Orochimaru was that he was worried that Kumogakure would take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Danzo Shimura felt very unhappy when he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen like this.

Mu Yue is obviously a ninja from his Root, an outstanding talent trained by Shimura Danzo. How come it became your, Sarutobi Hiruzen's credit?

Danzo Shimura felt strange as if the leeks he had worked so hard to grow were secretly harvested by others at night.

"Since Iwagakure has been defeated, why don't we use war as a threat to force Iwagakure to hand over the information on those spies." Utane Koharu expressed her thoughts.

"According to current intelligence, those spies are most likely the product of some kind of human experiment. If we succeed in cracking the technology, then our intelligence ninjas will be invincible in the future."

If you can't beat them, just join them. Since traditional intelligence ninjas are out of date, just update them as well.

Danzo Shimura looked at Koharu Utane in surprise. He didn't expect that the other party had the same idea as him.

Such evil technology must be handed over to Konoha for safekeeping!
"That's right, we should send more ninja troops and take advantage of this opportunity to enter the Land of Earth and take over the Iwagakure Village directly." Shimura Danzo said with approval.

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, "It's too risky. If Kumogakure takes the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, it will be very troublesome."

Although Kumogakure may not necessarily attack Konoha, they may also take advantage of the situation to attack Iwagakure, but Sarutobi Hiruzen does not want to take the gamble, as the consequences of losing the gamble are very serious.

"Huruzen, your hesitation will only make Konoha weak!

If Konoha makes every invading enemy pay a huge price, who would dare to go to war with Konoha?" Shimura Danzo retorted unconvinced.

This time they wiped out more than a thousand Iwagakure ninjas and won such a great victory. A stroll around the Land of Earth would also be a great deterrent.

"You only think about the benefits. If the Village of Cloud and the Village of Mist take advantage of the situation and sneak in, can you deal with them?" Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked on the conference table and asked firmly.

Doesn't Sarutobi Hiruzen know that this is a chance to defeat the Iwagakure in one fell swoop, but the risk is too great.

Since the founding of Konoha, the war has been isolated outside Konoha. The enemy can only enter the Land of Fire at most, but will never be able to get close to Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to be the only Hokage who dragged Konoha into war, that would be too embarrassing.

"If Konoha is really in danger, I will naturally lead my troops to attack." Shimura Danzo still insisted on his own idea.

"It's not a question of whether or not to go to the battlefield, but whether or not we can defeat the incoming enemy." Sarutobi Hiruzen emphasized.

Danzo Shimura is considered a capable ninja, but that's all he is, not stronger than the Three Ninjas or Mugetsu.

"Why do you think I will not be able to deal with the attacking ninjas?" asked Danzo Shimura.

Anyway, Yunyin hasn’t attacked yet, so let’s just brag about it first.

"Since you are so confident, you will be in charge of the Iwagakure and lead some ninjas to find out the information about the Iwagakure Village first." Sarutobi Hiruzen continued.

"Not now, I have a lot of other things to deal with." Shimura Danzo refused bluntly.

It’s not that he was afraid of death and didn’t dare to go up, but Shimura Danzo really had other things to do.

He has been trying to figure out what Sosuke's Ninja Clan heritage is, and how to get the Rinnegan.

"If you are willing to lead the team, then go. If not, don't even think about attacking Iwagakure!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's tough attitude made Utane Koharu give up her own plan. Her fighting ability was the worst among the four senior executives, and she neglected training after becoming a senior executive, so her strength became even worse.

Danzo Shimura was still unconvinced in his heart, but he did not refute it. He couldn't just do it himself.

If he accidentally fell in the Land of Earth, it would be a loss for the entire Konoha.

"There is no need to launch a large-scale attack on the Land of Earth, but we do need to test the attitude of Iwagakure." Mito Kado En said, lifting the frame of his glasses with his left hand.

In the two battles on the battlefield of the Land of Grass, Konoha and Iwagakure won one and lost one.

Overall, Iwagakure suffered much greater losses, but Konoha also suffered losses. Considering that other ninja villages were eyeing them covetously, Mito Kado En believed that they needed to act prudently.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. He also had the idea of ​​sending ninjas to contact the Iwagakure Village.

The current situation is too unfavorable for Konoha, and it must negotiate with a large ninja village to form an alliance.

"In that case, then we should recall Hanyu Mugetsu back to Konoha as soon as possible. The spies in Iwagakure are so powerful, it would be terrible if they managed to sneak into Konoha." said Utane Koharu.

If they want to attack Iwagakure, Mu Yue, the only one who can currently identify Iwagakure spies, must not be absent.

Now that it has been confirmed that they will not attack Iwagakure, Utane Koharu feels that she should call Mu Yue back.

"That's right. It would be best to find an excuse to gather the ninjas and let Mu Yue conduct a thorough inspection." Mizuto Menyan had the same concern.

Although their top leaders are all strong, there is a possibility that they will fail if the Iwagakure spies disguise themselves as their family members to play dirty tricks.

"I will contact the Grass Country troops after the meeting." Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed with this proposal.

In addition to eliminating possible spies in Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen also wanted Mu Yue to teach ninjutsu to other ninjas and include it in Konoha's ninjutsu library.

In principle, Konoha will not force any ninja to hand over his ninjutsu unless it is an inhumane forbidden technique.

However, the situation this time is special. To be more serious, it is related to the life and death of Konoha, so we have to deal with it in special ways.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that Mu Yue, who possessed the will of fire, should be able to understand, and he would not let Mu Yue teach in vain.

After the various discussions about Iwagakure were over, the topic gradually turned to rewarding those who had made contributions.

Regardless, this is a big victory worth celebrating.

Mu Yue, the person who formulated the counterattack plan and killed many enemies and injured the Jinchūriki on the battlefield, is undoubtedly the first to achieve the credit. Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze can only rank behind Mu Yue.

After the meeting, Danzo Shimura quickly found the Root's men and asked them to contact the Root members on the front line.

"Although the people have been rescued, since a battle has taken place, there may be some residual body tissue." Danzo Shimura thought secretly.

If he could develop the technology of Iwagakure's spy transformation technique, his Root Organization would be the strongest intelligence organization in the ninja world.

By then, Konoha will have defeated all the ninja villages with the help of his Root organization, and even Sarutobi Hiruzen will have no reason to restrict the Root anymore.
