The Hokage Ryos Path
Chapter 137: The New Battle

Before Ryo knew it, more than half a month had passed since he sent Yugao to train with Orochimaru.

During that time, Ryo devoted all of his energy to helping Shisui master the Lightning Chakra Mode.

Although he was not naturally gifted with the Lightning Element, nothing could stop Shisui's hard work. His Lightning Cakra Mode was beginning to develop.

After Shisui reached Lightning Chakra Mode, Ryo felt that he had enough defensive ability to survive on the battlefield. That's where he brought Shisui, to make her understand the atrocities of war.

Ryo and Shisui go together to the 3rd office. On the way, they meet Anbu from the opposite direction.

“Ryo san! It's you! The Hokage Sama sent me to call you to his office. Come with me!"

Seeing her being called to the office, Ryo could no longer bring Shisui, so he told her to go and go with Anbu.

“Oh, so fast?” the 3rd saw the two enter his office and was a little surprised.

"Same Hokage, I just left when I met Ryo san!" Anbu.

The 3rd nodded and gestured for him to leave. However, Ryo learns that he was not summoned there alone, as Minato and Orochimaru are already there.

Ryo connected his thoughts with the two, telepathically asking: "Ni-san, Orochi san, what happened?"

"I don't know. I that there is something wrong in the Wind Nation. ” Said Minato.

“When Sarutobi Sensei receives that information, I am present. This is indeed a problem in the Wind Nation, an alliance between Sand and Stone.” Orochimaru explained to the two.

Hearing about the alliance, Ryo knew that the Battle of Kikyo Pass was about to break out.

Sure enough, the 3rd confirmed Ryo's speculation.

"Orochimaru, Minato, Ryo, the last fight is in sight!" Saying that, he gave the scroll he received to Orochimaru.

The 3rd reads the information, and the 3rd goes on to say: “Till today, we have been in this 3rd World War for 6 years. During those six years, all the major countries suffered heavy losses. This next battle should be the last one to decide. What are you thinking?”

After the three locked each other up, Orochimaru was the first to speak: "Sarutobi sensei, since both sides made an alliance, unlike before, we have to go all out, we have to go all out, because we don't have to worry about the Cloud."

“Orochimaru san right. However, I do not think that this battle will take place in the Wind Nation. ”

"Oh? Describe your idea in detail Minato.” The 3rd was interested in Minato's words.

“Although the two sides are allied now, they have been at war forever now. So what I think is that they will definitely choose a place where none of them have an advantage over the others. Their best bet is the border between three countries.” Minato pointed to the map at the side.

Minato's analysis was excellent. The 3rd and Orochimary agreed, not to mention Ryo knew about this very well from Manga.

The four of them stared at the map looking for a place where battles would break out. Ryo has the edge, was the first to discover it.

“This Kikyo Pass!” Ryo pointed at the gap, which was between the Stone Country and the Fire Nation, and not too far away from the Wind Country.

"Yes! It should!” The 3rd, looking at all the other options, was convinced that Ryo's guess was correct.

After thinking about it, the third said: “They should have seven. Sand has the 4th Kazekage, Chiyo, Ebizo, and Ichibi Jinchuriki Bunpuku. The stone has Onoki, Kitsuchi and Gobi Jinchuriki, Han.”

Hearing that there were seven Kage level ninja, Minato's face was rather heavy.

Besides him, Konoha has the 3rd Hokage, Sakumo, Jiraya, Orochimaru and Ryo. It was made for six. Do I need to bring Kushina?

Ryo realizes his worries, and quickly comforts him: “Minato ni-san, the Kage level ninja are not all in the same league. Chiyo and her brother are not that strong, we can have one of us take care of them. Jinchuriki should be a bit difficult to handle, but we can beat them. The only one who bothers is Onoki.”

“If Onoki is the only problem, I will handle it myself, and I will definitely win!” Minato's words slightly surprised Orocimaru and the 3rd.

Onoki owns the legendary Kekkei Genkai Dust Release. He was there with the 3rd Hokage and 3rd Raikage in the most powerful Shinobi league in the world, and Minato was confident of his victory!

"Minato, are you really confident to defeat Onoki?" The 3rd asked seriously.

Minato nodded firmly, and the third, having this positive answer, burst into laughter. It seems there is already one more in Konoha that can protect it from the greatest danger.

“In fact, not only me, Orochimaru san and Ryo can also take care of him. At least we will not be defeated. ”

Orochimaru Minato joked, and revealed his usual smile. Ryo looked at her and didn't say anything.

He had no idea that Ryo had developed his Ice Teleportation any further, and that now he should at least not lose to Onoki too soon.

However, Ryo felt that he could even defeat Onoki if he used Lightning Mode and Lightning Chakra mode to the maximum.

With this technique and his current level, Ryo felt confident even to face the six paths of Pain, let alone Onoki.

“Alright, just by discussing strength and ability. Now, I will appoint Orochimaru as the Chief Commander of this battle. Minato and Ryo will help him, and you will all lead 10,000 Ninjas to help Sakumo and Jiraya. You also brought Kushina. You'll leave tomorrow!”

“Yes, Hokage Same!”

Well, if you have nothing else to say, start your preparations! The 3rd said to the three.

"Hokage-sama, wait a moment!"

"Ryo, what else do you have?" ask the 3

“Hokage alike, I want to take Shisui to the battlefield.

After a moment of silence, the 3rd agreed to Ryo's request. He knew that the battlefield was the fastest way for a Ninja to develop.

As the three left the office, Shisui was still waiting below. After bidding farewell to Minato and Orochimaru, Ryo returned with his student to the 3rd training ground to practice again.

“Alright, stop Shisui. Today's training is over. You will now immediately return to your clan, prepare yourself, and join me tomorrow to participate in the next battle.

Shisui stopped practicing and nodded firmly before leaving.

After Shisui leaves, Ryo goes to Orochimaru. He had learned that the latter had no intention of taking Anko and Yugao, so Ryo wanted to say goodbye to the latter before leaving.
