"despair!"

On the road covered with soil, a foot gently landed, aroused a little dust, and turned into a circular smoke ring, centered on the foot, slowly spreading away.

"Ah...."

Then came a breath that seemed to be relieved and then seemed to be tired.

"Take a break, the village is in front of you."

Chiba slowly stood up and looked around, but saw the bright sunshine shining, on the avenue built by the country of fire, the shade of the trees on both sides revealed a little golden color in the sun, extending all the way until Behind the corner not far ahead, the looming village wall.

It seems that the village did not endure the flames of war. In this third Ninja World War, Konoha can be said to make a profit without losing money. Together with the three generations of Hokage’s gentleness and the strategy of focusing on development and talent training, it will also be another Konoha that will be born in the future. The strongest period was the early stage of the Fourth World War, Konoha's economic strength, and the overall quality of the ninja.

Although before Shippuden, when Naruto was a child, Konoha's talents were no more than the major ninjas, but the talent pool, whether it is Konoha twelve Xiaoqiang, or the strength of other upper ninja class, family ninjas, In the state of steadily improving, not to mention the generation left over from the Three World Wars, that is, the generation of the pig, deer, and the like of Luji Nara. Many young geniuses like Kakashi and the like in the Three Wars survived, and those who value education Under the atmosphere, such a young genius has a particularly rapid improvement in strength, and will inevitably quickly become Konoha's mainstay.

Therefore, during the Fourth World War, Konoha’s sense of presence can be said to be an explosion. Even if the two main protagonists are not mentioned, there are many young ninjas participating in the command or strategic positions of the Ninja Alliance Army. Needless to say, Nara Shikamaru is like a small Although Sakura and his ilk did not have a clear appointment, in fact, they are also masters in charge of the medical camp of one party, shouldering the heavy responsibility of the logistics and medical care of the entire coalition army. This position was placed in the three wars and was occupied by a girl who was less than ten years old. It’s unbelievable that it can’t exist at all. It’s important to know that at the end of Shippuden, Sakura was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and in the Fengying recovery incident, her medical skill was to obtain the "one machine as a thousand" sand hidden body. Ninjutsu, ninjutsu, and medical ninjutsu are all recognized by the top thousand generations of mothers-in-law. It is conceivable that Konoha's young talents at the time had a status in the ninja world.

On the other hand, in other Ninja villages, Sagyun has no young people who can easily handle them except Fengkage Gaara, his sister Temari, and his brother Kankuro.

In Yanyin's words, it is the black soil of a three-generation earth shadow's granddaughter, as well as the red earth who is the guardian of the earth shadow.

Not to mention Wuyin, there is only one cowardly boy among the Seven Ninja Blades, and his strength is not so outstanding.

Even Yunyin couldn't find a few young people who could compare with Konoha's Twelve Xiaoqiang, let alone those who could compare with Shin Sannin.

And few ninjas left over from the Three Wars who were in their primes can compare with Kakashi and Kai. It can be said that Konoha completely crushed other Ninja villages no matter where they were up or down.

No matter the top strength, such as Naruto Sasuke and others, mainstays such as Kakashi and Kaizhi, or various ninjas with their own strengths and solid strengths, Konoha is a complete ninja. .

It can be seen that these three generations of Hokage are so powerful, even if the four generations died early, Sannin defected to defect, and frustrated to leave, in order to predict the chaos and chaos, in his later years, Konoha could still be governed. Strong, afraid of the past generations of Hokage, only three generations of Hokage can do it, and really did it.

And now, after truly experiencing the Three World Wars, Chiba also deeply understands how wise the seed protection policy of the three generations of Hokage is. Although the participation of some young talents will put the originally unfavorable war into a certain disadvantage, but, Keeping these young geniuses a few years, or even more than a decade later, they will become the mainstay, and after the war, the major ninja villages must have more time to recuperate. At that time, the difference between protection and non-protection will gradually become apparent.

The inevitable talents who are not protected begin to wither. After all, genius is not available overnight, and the fall rate of young ninjas in the war is terrible, and the decline of talents can be seen by the young people in other ninja villages during the Fourth World War. come out. And protection, as long as you survive the three wars, even if you sacrifice some of the older generation, or the talents who will enter the old age in the next era, when these seeds burst out and the branches and leaves are scattered, the Konoha will usher in a In an unprecedented period of talent prosperity, the village has the economic strength to train talents, a good educational atmosphere, and various advanced educational methods due to the emphasis on education. At that time, Konoha will only flourish day by day, while other forbearance The village will inevitably be weakened day by day due to a shortage of talents.

It can be said that it is only a matter of time when the Konoha family dominates the other four.

Although Chiba is unwilling to ponder the three generations of Hokage with a thick black school mentality, but based on what he has seen and heard in the three wars, he has to suspect that the third generation of Hokage deliberately did not send manpower when Konoha fell into passiveness. Maintain a passive appearance, even at the expense of some outstanding talents of the older generation and even the middle-aged, but secretly save more talents than in previous wars, even if the entire Konoha village is placed in a dangerous situation, it is necessary to bet The prosperous age of an era, with an attitude of forbearance of war, in exchange for the opportunity of future generations to dominate the Ninja world without a single soldier.

After all, as long as the Konoha family dominates and surpasses the four together, then the war will never be fought.

Over time, peace is the general trend, and when that time comes, it will be twice the result with half the effort to implement peaceful reunification.

Regardless of whether or not to carry out peaceful reunification without war, Chiba feels that this kind of thinking is in line with the three generations of Hokage's thinking of the gentleman and long-sighted Ninja hero.

Regardless of whether the idea is naive or not, and how successful it is, Chiba would be happy to accept it if it could be so. After seeing the suffering of war, he has reservations about using war in exchange for peace. Of course, it was only a reservation, not a veto. Although his motherland was in a peaceful era, the thousands of years of war history prevented him from having too many naive ideas.

"So... it's almost there."

Seeing this sunny and peaceful scene of birds chirping, after Chiba's many thoughts turned, he slowly gasped and stood up from a resting posture.

Although there is still a lot of exhaustion in my body during the two days of rushing , after all, the destination is right in front of my eyes, and I am striving to go forward.

I am...

While walking slowly, Chiba under the grass-green cloak, his face changed slightly, and his figure was almost trembling, and there was a mixed feeling of hope and kindness and hesitation in his heart.

Is it timid about hometown?

Suddenly, Chiba, who sensed his emotions, gave a wry smile.

Hongyan and Xuena, I don't know if they are in the village...

It’s been a long time since I saw Jiu Xinnai, so I have to go see...

The body of the third generation of Hokage, I don’t know if it’s better...

Then, after this homesickness, there was a figure flashing in his mind, in the warmth, urging him to speed up slowly.
