Naruto: The Strongest Sage

The two of them were very close.

In the training ground, Sasuke and Naruto were fighting. This is something they do countless times every day. This kind of sparring can not only increase practical experience, but more importantly, it allows them to understand each other so that they can cooperate with each other in future battles.

Under Aoba's training, Naruto is more like a ninja than in the original plot. At least he is very skilled in using shadow clones, instant bodies, and Rasengan.

And even if he didn't go to Myoboku Mountain to practice, he still began to integrate attribute changes into Rasengan under Aoba's guidance.

Wind escape Rasengan, Wind escape Rasenshuriken and other techniques are already under development. But for Naruto, the most important thing is his identity as a human pillar.

After the two finished their training. Aoba found Naruto.

"You're making good progress. I think it's time for us to start more in-depth training."

"More in-depth training? Teacher Aoba, do we need to increase the intensity of training?"

"No, not this intensity. It's a deeper level. According to your current condition, I think it's time for you to start using the power of the Nine-Tails."

"Uh, but isn't the Nine-Tails an evil monster?"

"Hehe, who told you that the Nine-Tails is an evil monster?"

"But it once hurt Konoha, and..."

"The Nine-Tails hurt Konoha because it was controlled by someone. Naruto, you have to remember that the Nine-Tails is not just a monster. It is a special life form created by the Six Paths Sage. It has a long life and powerful power. It was originally supposed to be a helper for humans.

The reason why the major ninja villages kept Tailed beasts, that's it. The existence of you Jinchūriki is a special strategic weapon in itself. "

"But I don't know how to use the power of the tailed beasts?"

"It doesn't matter. This is not something that can be done overnight. We first need to complete a training. You have to enter your own spiritual world and try to communicate with the tailed beasts.

This process may not be smooth. But I believe you can do it. At the same time, you have to remember one thing. The Nine-Tails did not actively harm Konoha. It is also a victim.

It is the one who killed your parents, hurt Konoha, and hurt the Nine-Tails. So, the interests of the two of you are the same. "

"I understand. But how do I enter my own spiritual world? "

"This is simple, Sasuke, it's up to you."

Sasuke was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. Teacher Aoba wanted him to assist Naruto and enter his spiritual world.

"I understand, Naruto, look into my eyes."

Seeing that the two had entered a state of concentration. Aoba set up a defensive spell around them. Then he walked up to Karin.

"Next, it's your turn. I checked your body a few days ago. Your body has completely recovered, and your blood and qi are many times more vigorous than normal people. So, I feel it's time to start developing your own potential."

Karin was born with the Diamond Blockade. But now she can only summon two chains. It's still a lot worse in actual combat.

The Diamond Blockade itself is a means to deal with tailed beasts and even large summoned beasts. It's useless if there are fewer of them.

"But what should I do?"

"It doesn't matter, just stand still, I'll do it."

Karin was about to say something. She felt that the chakra on Aoba in front of her suddenly burst out. The terrifying pressure almost made her sit on the ground.

At that moment, in Karin's perception, she was not facing a human being. But some kind of prehistoric beast.

She saw a surge of chakra in her body, and three golden chains spread out from her body.

"Not enough. Feel the changes in your body just now, understand it, and master it."

Aoba's voice, accompanied by a sound illusion, directly entered Karin's brain. Karin was shocked and instinctively began to try the chakra chain in her body.

The physique of the Uzumaki clan is really unique. Karin is the best among them. In Aoba's test, Karin's physique is even stronger than Naruto's.

Perhaps it is because of the stronger Uzumaki bloodline. Naruto's physique is outstanding in the amount of chakra, plus a thick skin. In addition to chakra, Karin's perception, diamond blockade, and even the five elements are extremely talented.

However, when the two were training, Aoba's ears moved slightly and turned his head to look behind him. A member of the Anbu just stood still.

"Aoba-sama, Hokage-sama urgently summoned."

"Got it, okay Karin. Let's stop here today, you

The next task is to keep an eye on the two of them. "

"Understood."

Aoba's figure then disappeared from the spot and appeared directly in the Hokage's office.

After arriving, he found that Kakashi, Shikaku, and Hyuga Hiashi were all there.

Here is a brief mention, that is, as the first clan leader to respond to Aoba's reform policy, Hyuga Hiashi still received some preferential treatment. He is now the leader of the Konoha Guard. He has become one of the top leaders of Konoha.

However, Aoba will naturally not allow the Konoha Guard to become a one-man show for a family as before. Hyuga Hiashi is the leader, but the other members are recruited from outside.

A large number of civilian ninjas have joined and got a stable job. This is the Aoba plan part of.

The previous action of overthrowing the Sarutobi family stimulated the major ninja clans. Although Aoba was confident that he could suppress them. But as long as he was not too radical, he was willing to use a softer way.

He arranged various official duties for the extra "retired" ninjas from the major clans. Work with a large number of civilian ninjas. In this way, the relationship between civilians and ninja clans was eased and brought closer. Lay the foundation for the subsequent changes.

In this way, the decision-making level of Konoha became Tsunade, Aoba, Kakashi, Shikaku, and Hyuga Hiashi.

The five people each have their own responsibilities. Once the five people get together, it will be a big deal.

"Sand Village asked us for help. They were attacked."

"Ask for help? Did Iwagakure attack Sand Village, or Kumogakure?"

"No, neither, it was Akatsuki."

"......" Aoba was silent because he had not received the news of the letter. "What exactly happened?"

"It's not clear yet. But according to the message from Sand Village, the situation is very urgent. They seem unable to stop it."

"Can't stop it? "Aoba was surprised. Could it be that Nagato took action personally? But if he did, it must be for Konoha.

"Since it is a military alliance asking for help, we must respond. However, as one of the five major tribes, Sunagakure has a solid foundation no matter how weak it is. The enemy may be very powerful, so we need to be cautious."

"Well, let's do this. Kakashi, you will select four senior ninja teams from the Anbu in the village, plus a sealing team and a perception team, and you will lead the team yourself. In addition, Aoba, your team 7 will also go together."

"Understood. However, in this case, the defense of the village needs to be rearranged. ”

Because the elite personnel were drawn, there was still some impact on Konoha. In fact, there are many more ninjas in Konoha now than imagined.

It’s just that Tsunade tasted the sweetness of doing business. A large number of ninjas were sent out by him to be pirates, not to do shipping.

So the number of ninjas available in the village is actually not as many as imagined.

At this time, Hyuga Hiashi, who had been silent, spoke up.

"The safety of the village will be handed over to the Konoha Guard. I will give an order when I go back to cancel all vacations and let the guard team add to the defense of Konoha's perimeter."

"Very good, that's the situation, everyone start to act immediately."

"Yes!"
