If you seek peace with war, peace will survive; if you seek peace with compromise, peace will perish!
The wise sayings of great men, even across different time and space, and across era backgrounds, still have a shocking and enlightening effect.
The spring of the 32nd year of Konoha.
The situation in the ninja world is changing. The five major countries and various small countries are becoming more and more restless. Local conflicts, harassment behind enemy lines, and small-scale battles occur one after another. Peace seems to be temporarily leaving this world full of troubles, and the war seems to be out of control.
What Uchiha Tokumitsu said at the clan meeting two years ago, this sentence is the most widely circulated in the family. Many Uchiha regard this sentence as a motto and a code of conduct. There's nothing I can do about it, this sentence is too unpalatable to the Uchihas.
And with the promotion of Uchiha's big mouth, this famous saying also broke the circle and gradually became popular in Konoha.
Especially in this turbulent era when the conflicts between the five major countries in the world are getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more conflicts overt and covert.
"If you seek peace through war, peace will exist; and the foundation of peace for all eternity will come from the battle to unify the ninja world!"
In the Hokage's office, Danzo said seriously to the Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Hiruzen, with the strength of the village, as long as we plan carefully, we can definitely overthrow the other four countries. Don't hesitate! Master Hashirama's wrong choices have created an even bloody ninja war, and our mission is to correct it. This mistake made Konoha the only and eternal strongest ninja village!"
"What are you still hesitating about! Hiruzen! Make up your mind quickly!"
Shimura Danzo's tone became more and more high-spirited, as if the scene of Konoha's unification of the ninja world was right in front of him.
The Sandaime took a deep breath from his pipe and exhaled a large stream of thick smoke.
"Danzo... maybe the martial arts factions in other villages think the same way as you, that's why the war is so bloody..."
"You are still talking about peace! Hiruzen, when did you become so childish!" Danzo was so angry that his nose was crooked.
"Wherever the leaves are flying, the fire will continue to grow. The fire will continue to illuminate the village and make new leaves sprout..."
The Sandaime recalled the specific description of the Will of Fire with blurred eyes.
"Master Hashirama established the village to better protect our children, rather than reducing the village to a tool for some ambitious people to satisfy their personal desires."
If the Sandaime had something to say, Danzo was furious.
"Hiruzen!"
"Danzo!"
"You will regret this!"
"I am the Hokage!"
As usual, the conversation between the two ended with a classic scene. An angry Danzo slammed the door and walked out. The Sandaime was also disturbed by Danzo and had no intention of continuing to deal with government affairs. He just kept smoking a suffocating cigarette.
To be fair, it is the dream of every generation of Hokage to put an official end to the bloody war that has continued since the Warring States Period.
It’s just that the first generation Senju Hashirama chose to balance the ninja villages of the five major countries. The second generation Senju Tobirama was trapped in the internal strife with the Uchiha and other ninja clans and was eventually attacked and killed at the alliance meeting with the Kingdom of Thunder; and the third generation In terms of strength, there is still a big gap between Sarutobi Hiruzen and his teacher, the Second-generation Hokage Senju Tobi. Although he is known as the "Ninja Hero", he cannot suppress the nations externally and conquer the wealthy clans internally. At this time, talk about Any plan to unify the ninja world is really an unrealistic fantasy.
"Uchiha..."
A faint whisper echoed in the Hokage's office...
…
On the other side, the Uchiha Preparatory Training School, which has been established for two years, is full of vitality and the students are full of energy.
After all, whether it is for the Uchiha police members who have been "reinvented" from the police department or the new recruits, the police officers who are doing the job of "enhanced ninja school" in the name of "training institution" In the school, more or less, many novel and practical ninja skills were learned.
The various Uchiha families have also slightly broken some sectarian opinions, partially relaxing the restrictions on the inheritance of ninjutsu, including some low-level Uchiha ancestral ninjutsu and a large number of five escapes copied by the Uchiha clan members using the Sharingan. All ninjutsu were thrown into the Police Department Preparatory Training School and allowed to be learned.
Although there is no core ninjutsu passed down by the family, the low-level Uchiha ninjutsu is enough for ordinary Uchiha people; although the ninjutsu copied by the Sharingan and the original ninjutsu may differ in the formula. There are some differences in terms of power, time to cast, chakra consumption, etc., but it's still better than nothing.
Based on the difference in educational content, if the Konoha Ninja School is at the elementary school level, then the Uchiha Police Department Preparatory Training School is at least the technical secondary school level, and it is a full-chain ninja education system from elementary school to technical secondary school.
The actions and treatment of the Uchiha clan have truly made many civilian ninjas drool with envy, and even many ninjas are jealous.
After all, ninjutsu is the foundation of a ninja's life.
Like Uchiha, who opened up the inheritance of ninjutsu and provided it, in Konoha it is definitely Scorpion Baba - the only one.
Even though many of the ninjutsu taught in Uchiha's so-called schools are copies of the Sharingan, for civilian ninjas, one more ninjutsu means more chance of saving their lives, so why do they care about those endless things? Even if you want to learn this, you can’t learn it.
Therefore, in the past two years, even if the Hokage clan has intentionally or unintentionally manipulated public opinion to attack Uchiha's domineering style of the police department and the "divisive" behavior of the preparatory training school, the status of the Uchiha clan in the minds of ordinary ninjas is still What has improved is that in order to obtain some insignificant ninjutsu from the Uchiha people, a large number of ordinary civilian ninjas are changing various tricks to make friends with the Uchiha people.
The Police Department Preparatory Training School, at the suggestion of Uchiha Tokumitsu and under the instruction of Elder Setsuna, admitted some children of the vassal Shinobi clan who had been friends with the Uchiha clan for generations, and also accepted some students who were friends of the Uchiha clan. Civilian ninjas come to receive "training". Although these people may not be able to enter the Uchiha clan's forbidden police department, they can still learn many practical five-escape ninjutsu.
Therefore, although the Uchiha are still as arrogant, indifferent, unkind, and contemptuous as ever, they still cannot resist the enthusiasm of the civilian ninjas - after all, the Uchiha have given too much!
In the past two years, Uchiha Tokumitsu has not been idle. Not only has he awakened the Sharingan to the double magatama, but as he grows older, his chakra volume and physical fitness have also greatly improved. The legendary Yin Escape secret technique has been combined with its powerful mental power to develop a variety of mental attack secret techniques. At the same time, he also serves as an instructor at the Police Department Preparatory Training School. He is mainly used as a training target to hone combat skills. Secretly, he also serves as an instructor. He seldom participated in the combat missions issued by his family; therefore, although he was eight years old, after unremitting training and combat training, Uchiha Tokumitsu's combat power could already stabilize the senior chuunin, and he could give a 50-50 fight against ordinary jounin. Kai, among the Uchiha clan, he is considered to be extremely talented and beautiful.
Of course, the prosperity of the Uchiha clan, which was in full swing at this time, also made many people in the village feel increasingly dissatisfied. The representative among them was the legendary "Nabe Shadow"-Shimura Danzo.
It's just that the increasingly tense atmosphere of war preparations in the ninja world and the constant outbreak of small-scale conflicts have taken away most of Danzo's energy. In addition, the ANBU training department in his hands, that is, the root department, has just started and is not strong enough. In the current Uchiha In front of the clan, they are just like chickens and dogs. Although he is a thousand resentful and dissatisfied, Danzo can only endure it at this time, and secretly manipulates public opinion to isolate the Uchiha clan, but he is not interested in the Uchiha clan. In other words, the words of ordinary villagers who are not even ninjas are worthless. They are just like ants trying to scream in front of an elephant. Anyone who looks at him will lose.
So, while the Uchiha were in full swing and the situation was great, the Second Ninja War also quietly began...
