Chapter 239 The War Logic of Generation 3
Although he was reluctant to spend time teaching others, Kyosuke did not do it perfunctorily in order to maintain his positive image. Instead, he put in a lot of effort to find ways to improve the strength of Obito and the others.
That night, Kyosuke wrote down several teaching plans, then analyzed and eliminated them one by one, and finally decided on the teaching plan for each person.
Take Obito as an example. Don't be fooled by Kyosuke's casual remark that Obito should train with Shisui, as if he were slacking off.
In fact, this seemingly mediocre solution was the final solution selected after eliminating two other options.
The two eliminated options were: Option 1, prohibiting Obito from using the Sharingan, allowing him to improve his strength and combat intelligence under the disadvantage of not having the Sharingan.
This plan involved a large investment of time and yielded little benefit; it was a thankless and arduous task and was therefore eliminated.
Option two: Team up with Kakashi and Rin to stage a scene where Kakashi and Rin are both killed by the enemy, thus stimulating Obito to awaken his Sharingan.
This precaution is too radical. If Obito develops a mental disorder as a result, then it would be a case of losing more than you gain.
Moreover, it would expose Kyosuke's secret of knowing how to stimulate the Sharingan's evolution, thus leading to his elimination.
In the end, they chose the safe and efficient method of having Shisui teach Obito a lesson.
Kakashi and Rin are the same.
Kakashi specializes in Lightning Release ninjutsu and secondarily in taijutsu.
Kyosuke couldn't teach Kakashi about Lightning Release, but he did seek advice from Guy and Noriko on Taijutsu.
Based on Guy's training experience and Noriko's knowledge of human acupoints, and taking into account Kakashi's relatively short mana bar, Kyosuke devised a training program that focused on improving the ability to kill enemies with minimal energy expenditure.
After listening to Kyosuke's explanation of the training plan, Kakashi felt it actually made some sense and decided to give it a try to see how it went.
"However, I will absolutely not wear that dress!"
Kakashi took the notebook with the training plan written on it from Kyosuke's right hand, completely ignoring the green bodysuit Kyosuke was holding in his left hand.
"Hey, this is Kai's generous donation. It's really helpful for physical training. Kai will be sad if you treat it this way."
Kyosuke looked disappointed that he hadn't managed to trick Kakashi into wearing the green bodysuit.
"Kyosuke, what about my training plan?"
Seeing how well Kyosuke had arranged everything, Lin also began to look forward to it.
Kyosuke took out several thicker notebooks and handed them to Rin.
"These are Noriko's training records and medical ninjutsu notes. You can study them carefully. Although you don't have the Byakugan, as long as you study the human body thoroughly enough, you can still become an excellent ninja."
Although Lin doesn't have a bloodline limit or extraordinary talent, she can rely on science!
What if it succeeds?
Kyosuke encouraged him, "The human body is a huge treasure. If you can discover it, you can not only become an excellent medical ninja, but also improve your strength. Hehehe, if you can understand the essence of life, you might even become a god in the ninja world."
Kyosuke's large bowl of chicken soup left Rin somewhat dazed.
She only wanted to be a medical ninja; the human body's treasures, the essence of life, and the gods of the ninja world were beyond the boundaries of her imagination.
Whether she can actually do it is another matter, but at least she can imagine it now, and on the bright side, it's a huge step forward!
After settling everyone in, Kyosuke created numerous shadow clones and began a day of training.
Several days later, in the middle of the night, Kyosuke suddenly received a notice from the Anbu that the Third Hokage urgently summoned him.
Kyosuke immediately went out and hurried towards the Hokage Building, while seeing various figures moving quickly through the surrounding streets and houses.
"These are all Jonin! I wonder what major event has occurred!"
Upon arriving at the lobby of the Hokage Building, Kyosuke saw the Third Hokage, two advisors, and Danzo.
All four of them had serious expressions. Kyosuke thought Danzo's face looked rather unpleasant, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred Konoha Jonin had appeared in the hall, representing most of Konoha's elite.
Upon seeing this, Kyosuke sensed something was amiss.
Generally speaking, Jonin also have to carry out missions, and because the missions are quite difficult, they often spend a long time away from home.
In terms of revenue generation, Jonin far surpass Chunin, so normally some Jonin are always out on missions, and there aren't many Jonin left in Konoha.
Of course, the war is not over yet, and in order to ensure the safety of Konoha, there will be more Jonin staying behind. However, it is still a bit too much to have nearly a hundred Jonin staying in the village together.
After removing the Jonin stationed at the border and excluding the Jonin present, only a very small number of Jonin are left to go out on missions!
What does this mean? It means that the upper echelons of Konoha had been planning to cause trouble for some time, and had stopped sending Jonin on missions!
There are very few things in the entire ninja world that would make Konoha so cunning and calculating, and considering the current situation, it can only be war.
Kyosuke had thought of these things, as had the other Jonin, so the atmosphere was rather heavy. Everyone stood silently in place, their eyes fixed on the Third Hokage.
After several years of war, most of the surviving people, except for a very small number of extremists, feel disgusted with the battlefield.
A while ago, we reached a peace agreement with the Mist Ninja, which made everyone very happy. We felt it was a good start and that the war might gradually come to an end.
Tonight, reality gave them a resounding slap in the face.
The third generation understood the public's mindset, so he did not advocate for war, but instead sincerely explained his plan.
"Yesterday, Minato Namikaze led an elite squad that broke through the Sand Village's defenses, and now they may have crossed the Land of Rivers and reached the border of the Land of Wind."
The third generation spoke calmly, their voice carrying to every corner of the hall.
"This time, we launched an attack on the Sand Village not for their land, nor because we enjoy killing, but to achieve peace."
"Over the years, we have been trying to reach a peace agreement with the Sand Village, but they have repeatedly refused our requests. The reason is simple: they occupy large tracts of fertile land in the Land of Rivers and can continuously gain wealth, while their losses are not serious. In the eyes of the Sand Village, the current state of war is a profitable business, so naturally they want to maintain it."
Facing the Konoha elites before him, the Third Hokage didn't mention the Will of Fire; instead, he analyzed the situation entirely from the perspective of self-interest, and every word he uttered was very practical.
"Therefore, in order to get the Sand Village to accept peace, we must hurt them badly, make them lose benefits in the war, and make them feel that continuing the war would be a losing proposition. Only then will they negotiate with us like the Mist Village did."
Kyosuke nodded slightly; the example of the Mist Ninja was very apt.
The reason why the Mist Ninja sought peace was because, in the early stages of the war, when they had just occupied the Land of Waves, Konoha reacted swiftly, assembled a large army, defeated them, and reclaimed the Land of Waves, preventing the Mist Ninja from gaining any further land on the continent.
Without occupying territory, the Mist Ninja had no way to exploit the land. Every war consumed the Land of Water's own resources, turning war into a money-losing proposition, which they could no longer sustain.
If the Mist Ninja had occupied the mainland and profited from it, they would never have easily negotiated peace with Konoha.
