"Wood Release? Lianzhu Family!"
Yamato made a dazzling array of seals, and a row of brand new, neatly arranged wooden houses suddenly appeared on the flat ground where there was nothing.
"good!"
"Amazing! As expected of Wood Release, it's so powerful!"
The people nearby saw Yamato build so many houses in just a few moves, their eyes lit up and they applauded and cheered for Yamato.
"Huff, huff!" After releasing this ninjutsu, Yamato was so tired that he bent over to catch his breath. After all, although this ninjutsu had no power at all, it was extremely complicated and consumed a lot of chakra. However, when he saw that the villagers around him recognized him, Yamato straightened his back and responded to the villagers with a smile.
Since leaving the Root, Yamato discovered that there is more to the world than just missions and training, and that contributing to Konoha does not only involve killing.
Because the Nine-Tails destroyed several streets, the people in those streets had no place to live, so Nagase sent Yamato, who possessed Wood Release, to build a temporary residence for them.
Before the streets were repaired, they lived in the houses created by Yamato Wood Release.
Seeing the people living in the houses he created with Wood Release with smiling faces, Yamato felt very motivated.
"Yamato, I always feel that your Wood Release seems to be different from that masked man's Wood Release and that white monster's Wood Release." Kakashi, who was standing next to him, analyzed while touching his chin.
"Captain Kakashi, if you want to say that my Wood Release is weak, you can just say it directly. I don't mind." Yamato said expressionlessly.
Because of the first generation, the people of Konoha always have a special feeling for Wood Release, thinking that it is the most powerful escape technique and the most severe bloodline limit.
Ever since Yamato demonstrated Wood Release in a group, he has become the most popular person in the group. Even people from other groups would come to see Yamato in their free time to see how cool a Wood Release ninja is.
Of course, after seeing Yamato's Wood Release, everyone will feel disappointed to a certain extent, but considering Yamato's age, everyone feels that it is reasonable. After all, he is only eleven years old, so it is understandable.
However, after all, he was attacked by a Wood Release ninja on the night of the Nine-Tails, so everyone would subconsciously compare Yamato's Wood Release with the attacker's Wood Release.
There was no object of comparison before. After all, they had never seen the first generation's Wood Release. They could only imagine the power of the first generation's Wood Release through the texts left behind.
But last night, two users of Wood Release actually appeared. Both the masked man and the white monster used Wood Release. Especially the white monster, he even used the Wood Man Technique of the First Generation.
Many ninjas and Anbu saw that giant wooden man that was dozens of meters long yesterday.
After this comparison, I found that Yamato's Wood Release is indeed a little different and lacks a bit of meaning.
So Yamato has gotten used to being teased, but he doesn't really care. After all, no one has any ill intentions and they are just joking.
"I'm afraid you'll be sad if I tell you directly. A team leader who makes his teammates sad is not a good team leader." Kakashi said with a smile.
“Captain, you were very direct when you said this…” Yamato looked speechlessly at Kakashi who was playing dumb.
When Kakashi was teasing Yamato, a ninja instantly appeared beside Kakashi and said to him, "Captain, it's time to go to the memorial."
Kakashi nodded and took Yamato to the memorial.
Fifty ninjas were lost on the night of the Nine-Tails, and the Nine-Tails broke through the seal to attack Konoha. Among the attackers, some had the Sharingan and some could use Wood Release. These all need an explanation.
When Kakashi arrived, quite a few people had already gathered under the huge black memorial tablet. Minato and Nagasawa were the first to arrive, and were standing silently in front of the crowd.
Minato did not wear the sacred robe that belonged to the Hokage today, but instead wore the black mourning clothes specially worn for mourning.
Minato stood at the front, with Nagasawa on his right, who had also changed into black mourning clothes for the sake of atmosphere, and the Sandaime on his left doing the same.
After all the ninjas arrived, they observed a three-minute silence for the heroes who sacrificed this time, and then Minato spoke.
"I feel deeply guilty for what happened. I failed to protect Konoha and allowed it to suffer such a terrorist attack.
Those who sacrificed in this incident are all heroes of Konoha, even the former Konoha elder Danzo Shimura who was a prisoner.
Although Shimura Danzo committed a serious mistake and was sentenced to ten years in prison, he used his life to seal the powerful enemy that attacked Konoha at the critical moment. Although this cannot make up for the mistakes he made in the past, it is worth it for us to engrave his name on the memorial tablet..."
Minato's words were plain, but the ninjas present could all hear Minato's sincerity. Minato really felt guilty about this incident, and he also truly respected those who died to protect Konoha.
"Although heroes need to be remembered, we cannot live in sorrow forever. Now, I will reward those who performed outstandingly in this Nine-Tail incident."
"Fujiwara Nagase, he is worthy of his position as the Hokage's assistant. He rushed to the scene as soon as the white monster attacked Konoha and used the Flying Thunder God barrier to teleport the enemy's ninjutsu. At the same time, after defeating the white monster, Nagase did not rest and immediately rushed to suppress the Nine-Tails. He made a huge contribution in this incident!"
After hearing what Minato said, many ninjas nodded secretly. Nagase did behave unusually fiercely that day, shocking many people.
Especially the scene where he blew up the Tailed Beast Ball with one punch, and then knocked down the Nine-Tails with two punches. It is really unforgettable for a lifetime.
"The Sandaime Hokage, even though he was the previous Hokage, whenever something happened in Konoha, the Sandaime still stood at the front line without hesitation, arranged the work of the ninjas in a timely manner, and also fought against the Nine-Tails on the front line..."
"Uchiha Fugaku, as the chief of the Konoha Police Department, Uchiha Fugaku performed his duties very well. When the enemy first invaded, Chief Fugaku led the police department members to the battlefield to fight the invaders. At the same time, he also fought against the Nine-Tails on the front line when fighting against the Nine-Tails."
…
After talking to everyone, Minato said again:
"Regarding the fact that the attacker possessed the Sharingan and Wood Release, after careful investigation and evidence provided by Minister Fugaku, it was determined that the attacker was not an Uchiha of Konoha. As for the origin of the attacker's Sharingan and Wood Release, we have some clues, but we are still investigating."
The Uchiha in the audience were a little excited when they heard Minato personally say that the attacker was not an Uchiha.
Although the Uchiha made a great contribution in the Night of the Nine-Tails, many people still remain skeptical of the Uchiha because the masked man who released the Nine-Tails has the Sharingan.
This not only made the Uchiha feel extremely aggrieved, but it would be fine if it really happened, but it really had nothing to do with them.
Moreover, they were taken away by Fugaku for support as soon as the enemy attacked. Their clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku, was still in the first battlefield against the Nine-Tails, so he had made a considerable contribution.
Being suspected like this really makes the Uchiha people feel aggrieved and angry, and even feel that they are not worthy of being Uchiha.
But here, the Fourth Hokage vindicated the Uchiha clan in front of everyone, which was really cool.
Even the Fourth Hokage has spoken. Wouldn't those who had doubted them before be slapped in the face
Now even some hawkish Uchiha felt that the Fourth Hokage was a good man and a sensible person.
