The Shadow of Konoha

After Hanyu held down a few children and gave them a round of "ideological education", he immediately felt much better.

But just like he said, no matter what he said was true or not, it was just a joke. A person's thoughts, actions, and even the formation of a worldview and values cannot be so easily influenced by a third party... Especially for people like Orochimaru and Jiraiya, they themselves have strong personality tendencies.

It doesn't even matter what their age is.

From childhood to adulthood, didn't the Third Hokage always whisper the "Will of Fire" in Orochimaru's ears every day? But the latter never really grew up to be the successor of Konoha. Instead, he became more and more immersed in his own world.

Therefore, what the Third Hokage couldn't do, Hanyu couldn't do either. He didn't even have the slightest idea of "changing". Joking was just joking. The power of words was meaningless and had no effect... Well, although this didn't seem quite right, at least Hanyu knew that his words were not so persuasive.

Now he can't even take care of his own affairs, let alone care about others.

Originally, Hanyu was going to find Sansho to inquire about some things, but after such a slight delay, it was a little late. In addition, Sansho was busy reporting some situations in the village to the Third Hokage, so Hanyu had to give up the matter for the time being.

All that idle chat, no work done, and returning empty-handed, Hanyu's behavior seemed a bit like that of a housewife.

And the next day, his teammates finally returned from Konoha.

"Has everyone successfully been promoted to Chunin?" Hanyu asked his teammates.

From these people, he saw the significance of the Third Hokage's arrangement for the frontline ninjas to return to the village for rotation and rest. After staying in Konoha for a few days, the mental state of Nagisa and others was obviously much better than before... This was only because they returned to the village to handle the promotion procedures, not a real vacation.

"Well, this was something that had already been decided at the front line. Going back to the village is just a matter of following the established procedure. Compared to this matter...how is your health? It seemed that the medical ninja was very serious with you before." Nagisa gave an affirmative answer. Rather than saying that the matter was a success on their side, it would be better to say that there was no possibility of failure.

After all, this time they didn't encounter anyone with connections like Hanyu did last time, so their upgrade went smoothly.

Then, Nara and the others began to care about Hanyu's physical condition. It was because of the so-called illness that Hanyu did not return to Konoha with them. However, since they returned to Konoha before waiting for Hanyu's diagnosis results, they did not know the more detailed situation... But at least, based on the attitude of the medical ninja, Hanyu's problem should be quite serious.

"I don't have any serious problems. The doctor has already prescribed effective medicine for my situation ... Generally speaking, I was just urged to exercise well. My problem is that my physical condition is still a little too weak." While saying this, Hanyu secretly supported his back... Now the slug was lying on top of the scabbard across his waist.

After attaching a summoning beast module, Hanyu no longer has to worry about his physical problems for the time being. However, because people usually call his behavior "cheating", which is generally not a glorious thing, Hanyu did not explain the situation in more detail to his teammates.

"Really? That's great." Nagisa said dryly.

Although it was a good thing that Hanyu's condition was not that serious , several people still looked at each other in bewilderment. Before returning to the front line, they had actually made sufficient mental preparations. Whether Hanyu's condition was as minor as a cold or as serious as an incurable disease, they could accept it. However, now Hanyu told them that his so-called condition was just a weak constitution.

Sounds like anemia or malnutrition.

Then, several teammates couldn't help but recall the scene in which Hanyu rushed into the crowd of Sunagakure on the battlefield and chopped down Monzaemon with lightning speed... Is this considered a weak constitution?

For some reason, the joy of the three people being promoted to Chunin disappeared without a trace in an instant.

There is nothing wrong with Hanyu's description of his physical problems, it's just that his description is not accurate enough... The correct statement should be that his chakra is too strong, so his physique is relatively weak. But Hanyu did not explain his own problems in such detail, so his teammates could only hold back their anger.

Putting aside Hanyu's personal affairs, with the return of his teammates, a slightly awkward problem has arisen in the team - Hanyu is obviously the captain, but he is only a Genin; the remaining three have been promoted to Chunin, but are only subordinates.

However, this is not a serious problem. When the team was first formed, everyone was not familiar with each other and had little trust in Hanyu as the captain. Therefore, the "mastermind" Sansho forcibly suppressed the ninja levels of two of the members. But now it is different. After all, Hanyu has proved his ability on the battlefield. With the trust of his teammates, even if there are some differences in everyone's levels, it will no longer cause any major problems.

Because he was poisoned by certain thoughts, generally speaking, Hanyu prefers to be a Genin rather than a Chunin. Therefore, even though his physical problems have been solved now, he feels that he does not need to make up the levels in such a hurry as long as it will not cause any trouble to himself.

Chunin or Genin is just a nominal classification. A person does not become stronger because he becomes a Chunin. On the contrary, it is because they become stronger that they become Chunin. This is not a matter of putting the cart before the horse. Therefore, unless these team members can surpass Hanyu in strength, battlefield judgment, and tactical decision-making ability, they will not be dissatisfied with him.

Everyone is each other's tool. As long as they play their respective roles well, the rest of the people will not say much.

After the team returned, Hanyu and his team began to participate in patrol and monitoring tasks again. However, after several repeated tasks, Hanyu discovered a new problem - their surveillance route and surveillance points gradually deviated from the direction of Sand Village to the northwest. In this new direction, the enemy was not a big country or a big ninja village, but...

The Land of Rain, the Hidden Rain Village.

After successively resolving the wars in the Land of Lightning and the Land of Wind, the Hokage finally turned his attention to the last enemy that he could directly contact in the Land of Fire.

It seems that the Third Hokage has made up his mind to end this Ninja World War once and for all.
