With the tacit understanding between the Hokage clan and the Uchiha clan, the news of the police department's forced arrest of root personnel was not spread too obviously. However, the cause and outcome of the entire incident is something that the ninja clan and senior ninjas should know. I basically know everything, after all, who doesn’t have a source of information?
Similarly, as the perpetrator of the 'Police Department Forced Abduction Incident', Uchiha Tokumitsu's name began to spread among the upper echelons of Konoha; young, powerful, cold and arrogant, this is almost a standard Uchiha genius template , in the eyes of the veteran ninja clan, it is a normal period for the Uchiha clan to have such a young hero. After all, the Warring States period that lasted for thousands of years has verified the qualifications of the Uchiha clan. Therefore, when such a character appears in the contemporary Uchiha clan, although civilian ninjas or younger ninjas will be surprised by his ability at such a young age, the elders of the ninja clan will not be surprised.
Although often slandered as the 'cursed clan', Uchiha is the best role model for ninjas who pursue strong power and free will.
Although the incident of the Uchiha Police Department's forced arrest of the roots made the Hokage family and the ninja factions close to Naruto feel unhappy, for the ninja clan who are committed to maintaining their family characteristics and independence, the powerful Uchiha came out to fight. It is also a good thing to hide the Sandaime's face behind it.
For the sake of his roots, Danzo often plundered the descendants of the fallen ninja clan or ninja orphans and turned them into tool men. This also made the ninjas very vigilant, but even if the lawsuit was brought to the Hokage, In the end, He Xini was inclined to send him away with the sentence "Everywhere I go, I contribute to Konoha." Over the years, the ninja clan's resentment was not small.
The Uchiha showed the clan's attitude, and the Hokage also felt the Uchiha's toughness, so both sides took a step back. After the root personnel were detained for three days, the ANBU took the Hokage's warrant away, and the police department did not do anything to embarrass them.
The biggest beneficiary, Uchiha Tokumitsu, won the hearts of the Uchiha radicals, and his reputation began to spread among the upper echelons of Konoha.
The bad thing is that the name Uchiha Tokumitsu is also on the black market money exchange's reward list, with a reward of 7 million taels.
The incident's popularity did not last long, firstly because the scope of the spread was relatively limited to the upper echelons of the village, and secondly because the conflict with Yu Ninja Village became more intense.
After receiving the 200 ninja troops transferred from the direction of the Land of Wind, the Jonin Misura Hazaki who was stationed at the border of the Land of Rain, took the initiative to attack the Rain ninja who had been testing frequently recently, and annihilated all the outpost reconnaissance troops of the Land of Rain in one fell swoop. At the same time, it aroused the confrontational mood of the Rain Country. Later, the Rain Ninja Border Force attempted to retaliate, but was ambushed and defeated. Under the leadership of Misura Hazaki, the Konoha Ninja Army marched straight in and captured three border areas of the Rain Country. Towns, plundered large amounts of supplies they had hoarded. Sanshoyu Hanzo, the mainstay of the Land of Rain, could no longer sit still.
According to basic intelligence, Hanzo is working hard to raise supplies and is expected to mobilize half of the ninjas in the Rain Ninja Village to form a ninja army of about 1,500 people, which will be led by Hanzo himself to fight back against Konoha.
The size of Konoha's 600-strong Ninja Military District stationed in the Kingdom of Rain alone cannot withstand the subsequent counterattack of the Kingdom of Rain.
Therefore, the mobilization of the Ninja Army in the village is imminent.
In the Hokage's office, Konoha F4 implemented the Konoha tradition of "holding general meetings for small matters and small meetings for major matters" and discussed military and political affairs behind closed doors.
"How is the Ninja Army organization?"
The Sandaime was holding a pipe in his mouth as usual, and while reading the information, he asked the consultant to transfer to Koharu.
"A thousand elite troops composed of ninjas have been organized, but the civilian ninja army has only gathered 1,200 people..."
"Why?"
"The ninjas of the ninja clan are basically the garrison force of each family. They are relatively concentrated and have relatively good discipline; while most civilian ninjas are performing tasks outside. Some of the people on the mobilization roster cannot be contacted for the time being, and some have not yet returned..."
"How about raising supplies?"
The Sandaime asked Mito Monen again.
"Ninja tools, military rations and other equipment and supplies are all ready. However, the quantity of detonating talismans purchased is insufficient and needs to be allocated from the village's combat readiness reserve. But in this way, the village's combat readiness reserve will be..."
"Why?"
"The prices of various supplies have increased too quickly recently..." Mito Kadoyan sighed.
Naruto F4 all sighed.
"The only thing that hasn't seen a significant price increase is Uchiha's Detonating Talisman, but the supply quantity has been significantly reduced." Mito Kadoyan continued.
The detonating talisman is the product of the combination of fire escape and sealing techniques. Among the Konoha ninja clan, the ones who are proficient in fire escape are Uchiha and Sarutobi. Among them, the detonating talisman produced by the Uchiha clan is famous in the ninja world for its large quantity and high quality.
"How about... Danzo, you go to the capital to talk to the daimyo about military expenditures?"
The Sandaime came up with a bad idea and planned to let Danzo force the Daimyo to come back with more military expenses.
Danzo silently nodded in agreement.
After being slapped in the face by Uchiha, Danzo, who felt ashamed, became even more taciturn.
"The main purpose is to support the ninja army of Mimura Jonin. When can we set off?" The Sandaime continued to ask.
"Based on the current personnel and material situation, the ninja troops can set off at any time, but the civilian ninja troops will take about a week..."
"Then let Orochimaru and the other three lead the ninja troops to set off first. The military situation is urgent and it should not be delayed." The Sandaime made the final decision.
"Danzo, you also go to the capital to meet the daimyo and rush back as soon as possible. You will lead the subsequent civilian ninja army to the Land of Rain."
The Sandaime continued to order generals and gave his old friend the benefit of commanding the ninja army.
"Hai!"
Danzo still cherishes words like gold.
"In addition, summon the second and third echelon ninja troops."
The Sandaime took a puff of his pipe and said, "The changes in the Kingdom of Wind are not normal. According to ANBU intelligence reports, the mobilization of ninja troops within its territory is no longer able to grasp the dynamics."
"The Kingdom of Wind..." The consultant was silent.
After all, the Kingdom of Wind is one of the five major countries and should not be underestimated.
"The Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Thunder should also pay attention. Although the two countries are still in confrontation, there are also quite a few moves on the border of Fire."
"Then...how many people should be gathered for the second and third echelon of ninja troops?" Koharu asked after moving to bed.
"According to the scale of three thousand people!"
"In this case, the village's standing strength will be too empty..."
"The Ninja School can graduate a group of genin in advance to strengthen their basic strength." Danzo said on the side.
Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head, "If it doesn't end this way, the children of the Ninja School are the future of the village and should not be touched lightly."
At the end, he added, "At least there is no need to use Ninja School students yet."
"What about the Ninja clan?" Xiao Chunyi pointed out when he went to bed.
The Sandaime thought for a moment.
"Mobilize with all strength." He said and took another puff of his pipe. "The level assessment of unregistered ninjas can be relaxed a little. The scale of the war may be very large, and the village is in urgent need of active forces to join."
"Where's Uchiha?" Koharu asked again after sleeping.
"Treat everyone equally." The third generation said with deep eyes, "Try to recruit four hundred family ninjas from the Uchiha clan."
"Then this cost..." Mito Menyan felt a little troubled.
Unregistered family ninjas are the foundation of each ninja clan. Each clan must hold them in their hands and refuse to let go. To recruit them into the ninja command of Konoha, it will cost not only the registered establishment, but also a large sum of money. Exchange of funds and materials.
"So it's up to you, Danzo." The third generation turned to Danzo, "The military support of the daimyo is crucial. This trip to Kyoto must reach an agreement with the daimyo."
Danzo still nodded silently.
…
As for the Uchiha clan.
Uchiha Tokumitsu still followed the previous rhythm and led the family ninja army to conduct various tactical drills to strengthen their combat strength as much as possible.
In addition to the ninja army of the radical faction under his command, the clan leader's faction, the conservative faction, and the police department system all dispatched personnel to form ninja armies for centralized exercises and training.
The four ninja armies of the Uchiha family, totaling about 300 elite ninjas, were organized in this way.
Several small and medium-sized ninja clans close to Uchiha also followed suit and began to concentrate their family's strength, but their strength was relatively weak, and the size of the ninja army they formed was relatively small.
Seeing this, other ninja clans also recalled the ninjas who were out and actively strengthened their troops.
For a time, the number of ninjas in Konoha's big and small ninja clans seemed to have doubled overnight. The ninja armies of each family gathered in groups, and the ninjas moved around high and low. The roofs of Konoha residents were repaired every three days and one major repair was made every five days, and the usually empty training grounds were also crowded.
The top brass of Konoha were both happy and worried when they saw this. The happy thing was that Konoha's war potential was indeed strong and it could cope with the expansion of the scale of the war. The worrying thing was that each family gathered ninja armies separately, and the ninja armies were bound by blood relations. Being able to fight and make trouble at the same time is not conducive to the leadership of the Konoha commander.
Especially some necessary fatal situations, I am afraid that these gathered ninja ninja troops will not be able to be deceived.
"It would be great if all the clans in Konoha were as selfless as the Senju clan."
In the office, the Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen looked up to the sky and sighed as he reviewed the nonsense documents for summoning the Ninja Army.
Unfortunately, the once glorious Senju clan suffered heavy losses in the First Ninja War. Currently, only Tsunade and a small number of her direct and direct clan members are left. Most of the ordinary Senju clan members have already passed away during the Second Generation period. He went into seclusion and integrated into various families in Konoha, and his whereabouts are difficult to trace.
Today, the mainstream of the Konoha ninja clan is Uchiha and Hinata, long-established wealthy families who are powerful and adhere to tradition. None of them are easy to fool.
The opportunity to take advantage of the war to weaken the power of the ninja clan and suppress their status was aborted before it could be implemented. The top management of Konoha had to hold their noses and summon the talkative people of each ninja clan to discuss the recruitment of the family ninja clan.
…
It was at the ninja clan meeting that Uchiha Tokko met for the first time the god of ninjas and the granddaughter of Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage of Konoha - the famous and broad-minded Tsunade in the legend of later generations.
