The Uchiha clan moves very quickly, especially when it comes to issues involving the interests of all parties.
After the clan meeting, the elders of each family began to take stock of the elite ninjas in each room, and determined the list of personnel to fight and handed it over to Uchiha Tokimitsu.
A total of thirty-two Uchiha jounin and 274 chunin formed the first batch of family ninja troops to be dispatched by Uchiha Tokumitsu.
Following the ancestral tradition since the Warring States Period, this powerful ninja army composed of pure Sharingan Uchiha ninjas was named the "Tokumitsu Akabei Team".
The elders of Uchiha felt that it was not enough to follow the ancestral system in their names, so they specially rummaged through the long-dusted Uchiha armaments warehouse to find red armor that was completely different from Konoha uniforms and handed it over to this red team. .
Although Uchiha Tokumitsu felt that there was something wrong. As a ninja, he still wore samurai-like armor. , and had no choice but to hold his nose and admit it.
It's just that the carcass is mainly used as one of the personal carrying tools. For ninjas, it is nothing more than freeing up a sealing position on the sealing scroll, which is not a big problem.
The elders also had the wisdom not to ask them to put it on immediately in the village, otherwise the village, which had been frightened by the Uchiha clan's commotion in the middle of the night, especially the Hokage family, saw the Uchiha ninjas wearing traditional armor whizzing around. I'm afraid the first reaction is to think that Uchiha has raised troops to "clear the shadow side".
At the same time, in order to complete the procedures for the mobilization of the family's ninja troops, the clan leader Uchiha Shifang also sent an intelligence letter to the Hokage Building the next day in the name of Uchiha Kamon, the commander of the Northwest Border Defense Force.
The content is that the Iwagakure Ninja Army of the Land of Earth has withdrawn from the northern part of the Land of Rain, and its personnel have been replenished to the Iwagakure Ninja Army camp in the northern part of the Land of Grass, so Uchiha Fire Gate sent a letter to the family for help.
As for the fact that the ninja troops originally deployed by the Ninja Village on the northern border have been transferred to the southeastern border to confront Konoha's dispatched troops? What does that have to do with the Uchiha clan? Naturally, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t understand.
After sending the so-called intelligence letter that was still wet to the Hokage's building, without waiting for the Hokage's reply, the "Tokumitsu Red Army", which had been prepared overnight, lined up as a whole and set off for the Land of Grass.
There were three hundred Uchiha ninjas, all of whom were elites with Sharingan eyes activated. When such a ninja army appeared in Konoha Village, it was conceivable that the commotion it caused was huge.
The major ninja clans and civilian ninjas in Konoha once again witnessed the power of the Uchiha clan as the most powerful ninja clan in the ninja world.
Regarding the family's ninja army's expedition, Uchiha Tokumitsu and the family's patriarch and elders did not hide their thoughts at all.
Firstly, it is difficult to cover up the movements of ninjas on such a scale, especially the Uchiha who are the whole clan. Secondly, the whole Uchiha clan has the idea of establishing their authority in front of others, and it is difficult to unify the opinions within the family. The clan leaders and elders were eager to show off their muscles in front of the village and other ninja clans.
In addition, it also allows the village to see how much the Uchiha clan attaches importance to the interests of the Country of Grass, so as to avoid the embarrassment of Konoha F4 making strategic misjudgments due to selfish motives in the future.
The distance from the Uchiha tribe to the gate of Konoha is not far. The Uchiha ninja troops marching in line left the village leisurely and leisurely in the eyes of countless onlookers lurking in the dark, peeping, full of solemnity, fear, envy and even hatred. .
Although Uchiha Tokumitsu is nominally the leader of this "Tokumitsu Red Team", he did not go out with the team this time.
Because he also serves as the deputy commander of the village's mobile force, and as an elite standing ninja army composed of twenty-one jounin, he has no intention of letting go.
But in private, he had asked the Uchiha scene of the secret guard to notify the Uchiha Fire Gate through the ninja cat, and asked him to send out another request for help report, naming the mobile troops to cooperate with the rescue and attack. In this way, Uchiha The elite forces under Bodeguang's command can form a complete combined force, and they are sure to defeat the southern Iwagakure camp in one fell swoop.
As the Uchiha Ninja Army advanced, the spies from various countries lurking inside Konoha could not restrain themselves. They released homing pigeons and Ninja Eagles one after another in an attempt to send intelligence. However, the ninjas of the Police Department who had already laid ambushes inside and outside the existence also sent Ninja Eagles to Shoot them down, and swoop out to capture them one by one.
The police department's arrest operations inside and outside the village naturally caused riots.
The three members of the Hokage, Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya, who stood on the highest point of the Senju clan and watched the Uchiha ninja army going out, had different expressions.
Tsunade bit her lip slightly.
Her inner feelings towards the Uchiha clan, which showed so much majesty, were also quite complicated. However, the power of the Senju clan has declined beyond control. The Senju clan, which was once as famous as the Uchiha, now has no more young ninjas in the clan to form a squadron.
Tsunade sighed and forced herself to give up the childish idea of competing with the Uchiha clan.
The reason why the Senju clan retreated into seclusion was not because of how noble they were as a founding clan, but because of the family continuation issues that they had to face. If the fight continues, Senju will really be gone...
And Orochimaru looked at the neatly organized and impressive Uchiha elite ninja army, and couldn't help but licked his lips out of habit.
At this time, Orochimaru has not completely given up and transformed into a man who is addicted to black technology and immortality, and still has the dream of Hokage. In addition to ninjutsu, he still has some desire for power in his heart.
At this time, he also truly intuitively understood the reason why his teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi and other high-level officials in Konoha were so afraid of and rejected Uchiha.
Not to mention anything else, the strength of this ninja army in front of them is probably no less than that of the ANBU directly under the Hokage.
Moreover, this is far from the full strength of the Uchiha clan.
The police force members deployed throughout the streets to maintain order are still familiar faces. It can be seen that the personnel who make up this elite ninja army are by no means drawn from the police department under the control of the Uchiha clan. And the profound foundation shown in this is even more shocking.
"Uchiha..." Orochimaru's nostrils twitched slightly, like a venomous snake glaring at someone to devour, "They are really a clan favored by the Immortal of Six Paths..."
As for Jiraiya, he was also uncharacteristically uncharacteristic, not showing any of his usual playful smile. Instead, he had a resolute and serious look on his face.
"Three hundred people..." Jiraiya's voice was a little unclear, as if something was blocking his throat, "About one-tenth of the jounin..."
Tsunade and Orochimaru just watched the actions of the Uchiha Ninja Army quietly without speaking.
"Don't you have anything to say or feel?" After all the Uchiha ninja troops left the village, Jiraiya, who breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and asked his two companions who had been silent.
Tsunade still said nothing.
"What do you want to say? What should you say? What do you want to say?" Orochimaru glared at Jiraiya angrily, "Are you going to show off the power of the Uchiha or condemn their unruliness?"
Jiraiya was also speechless this time.
Orochimaru turned around and jumped towards the Hokage Building.
"Orochimaru..." Jiraiya shouted quickly.
"I'm going to find Sarutobi-sensei!" Orochimaru didn't even look back, and left without saying a word.
Tsunade also took advantage of the situation to jump back to the Senju Clan on the eaves.
Jiraiya glanced around, a little embarrassed, but in the end he gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, chasing after Orochimaru's back, "Orochimaru, wait for me..."
Faced with the wanton actions of the Uchiha clan, no one in Konoha had any intention of stopping them.
Although ninjas are not allowed to leave the village without a Hokage warrant or without a mission, in actual implementation, this regulation is purely in name only. Not to mention those arrogant ninjas, even the jounin and chuunin who were slightly powerful among civilian ninjas did not take this order seriously.
Moreover, it is actually an unwritten rule that the ninja clan, which has a long history and profound foundation, sends out their own family ninjas who are not registered to perform private tasks or private work entrusted by the family.
Moreover, when performing family tasks, most ninjas of the ninja clan also pay attention to concealing their whereabouts. After all, they are poaching the corners of the village, so it is not good to be too blatant.
But like today's Uchiha clan, the direct recruitment of family ninjas to form a ninja army to carry out war missions directly instructed by the family's top leaders was an unprecedented period in Konoha and even the ninja world.
Since the establishment of Konoha and the establishment of the one-village-one-nation system, no ninja clan has been able to form an independent army and carry out war missions by itself.
However, the Uchiha clan could not find any reason to condemn or oppose this move.
Because the members of these ninja armies are family ninjas trained within the Uchiha clan, that is to say, they are not even Konoha ninjas.
In the Hokage's office, the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two advisors Mito Kado and Koharu Koharu, who were observing the actions of the Uchiha Ninja Army through the crystal ball, fell silent.
The atmosphere in the room was as solemn as death.
Even Mito Monobu, who is known for his cleverness, and Koharu, who is known for his eloquence, do not know what to say when faced with this blatant demonstration by the Uchiha clan.
terrible!
That was the first thought of the two consultants.
The Uchiha clan must be weakened!
This was the second thought that immediately popped into the minds of the two consultants.
"Hiruzhan..."
After turning to bed, Koharu called out softly to the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen who was staring at the crystal ball with an ashen complexion.
The Sandaime's face softened slightly and he turned his head to look at her.
"We can't let this matter go like this!" Xiaochun said through gritted teeth when he went to bed.
"So what?
The Sandaime's tone was as cold as thousand-year-old ice.
More than three hundred Uchiha clan ninjas, like more than three hundred loud slaps, slapped the Sandaime hard on the face one by one.
He could even imagine now that those old ninjas who were not convinced by the control of the Hokage Building were discussing this matter in a wanton, arrogant and vicious tone.
And when this matter fell into the eyes of the ninjas in the village, how did the Jonin discuss it.
When the news reached the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire, how did the Daimyo and the noble officials view the fact that the Hokage's power was challenged by Uchiha?
You know, there have always been people around the daimyo who have advocated returning the control of the Ninja Village to the daimyo, and those who hold this advocate include not only the nobles of the public family, but also the guardian ninjas around the daimyo.
Even, what tone will the other four major countries use to talk about this matter?
Is it to condemn the ninja clan's wanton behavior with the same hatred or to laugh loudly at Sarutobi Hiruzen's incompetence?
You can guess this without even thinking.
When Koharu went to bed and just said a word, Sarutobi Hiruzen had countless thoughts running through his mind.
But for a moment, he was at his wits' end.
On the Hokage's desk, in addition to the intelligence document submitted by the Uchiha clan, there was also a message from the Konoha Expeditionary Force headquarters stationed in the border city of Rain Country.
The leader of the Rain Ninja Village, Sansho Hanzo, has personally led the Rain Ninja Army that was originally stationed at the northern border of the Country of Rain to go south and join forces with the Rain Ninja Army that was originally stationed in the southeastern region of the Country of Rain to confront Konoha. He has dispatched Army Commander Danzo Shimura. The child felt great pressure and had to send a letter to the village urgently to ask for help.
"Are Onoki and Sansho Hanzo... already in cahoots?"
The third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen said with some pain.
"I guess that's true..."
Mito Menyan also sighed deeply.
"Knock knock knock."
There was a crisp knock on the door.
"Come in!"
A calm Orochimaru and a somewhat out of breath Jiraiya walked in.
Looking at the two majestic disciples, the Sandaime suddenly became determined and couldn't help but smile on his face.
"Teacher." Orochimaru and Jiraiya greeted respectfully.
"Let's take a look." The Sandaime picked up the intelligence file on the table and handed it to the two of them, "The latest important military information."
Orochimaru and Jiraiya took the file and read it respectively.
"Let's take a look. What do you think we should do?"
"I will rush back to the front line of Rain Country immediately." Orochimaru's expression was a bit solemn. "It's just a ninja who is returning to the village on a break. Please ask the teacher to come down and regroup as soon as possible."
Sandaime's face finally showed some genuine smile from the heart.
…
Facing the increased troops of Iwagakure Village and deploying them on the southern border of the Land of Earth, they peeked at the Land of Grass. The news of the Uchiha clan's ninja army's expedition spread from Konoha to the ninja world at a terrifying speed like the spread of a natural disaster and plague.
The five major ninja villages of the five major countries, openly and secretly, all knew that a family ninja army from the Uchiha clan of Konoha was heading towards the Land of Grass with murderous intent, glaring at the scarlet Sharingan.
In addition to Konoha, which is in a dilemma, Iwagakure Village of the Earth Country, another one of the five major countries, has also attracted widespread attention due to the actions of the Uchiha clan.
The prelude to the Second Ninja World War, is it the Land of Rain's Ame Ninja Village Sanshouyu Hanzo's first counterattack against Konoha to regain the lost territory, or is it the decisive battle on the plains where the Uchiha clan directly collides with the Ninja Army of the Great Nation in Iwagakure Village? The big shots are waiting with bated breath.
As the sun and moon advance, the laws of the year are renewed.
On the occasion of the New Year, I wish all book friends a happy New Year, good luck, peace and joy.
