"What a big loss..."
Uchiha Tokko shook his head repeatedly.
“It’s really a huge loss!”
After looking at the Ninja Army deployment expense report a few more times, Uchiha Tokumitsu couldn't help but complain again.
Hatake Sakumo looked at Uchiha Tokimitsu who looked like a philistine and was speechless. Why is a normally well-behaved person like this when he mentions money?
It’s really against the law!
"So many ninja troops were dispatched, almost all of the Uzumaki clan were dispatched, and even tailed beasts were used..."
Uchiha Tokko sighed, "This is the result..."
Pointing at the corpse of Miaomushan Sage lying abandoned on the ground, Uchiha Tokumitsu was filled with disgust.
He originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to kill Miaomushan Immortal to take another breath of the source of celestial magic. However, for some unknown reason, the remains of Immortal Shima did not have even a tiny bit of celestial magic power. Therefore, this time, he only captured an immortal magic weapon. Just an old frog!
As for Asura's left leg, Uchiha Tokko asked the Fire Lord to swallow it, preparing to go back and study it carefully to see who this ancestor who jumped out of the crack of the rock was.
"The dignity of Konoha cannot be provoked, and jounin is precious and cannot be thrown away lightly."
Hatake Sakumo said.
Although these words have some meaning to smooth things over for Uchiha Tokumitsu to go to war to save people, they also represent the common consciousness of the current mainstream in Konoha.
Especially the members of the jounin class are happy to see that the village will value every jounin.
What's more, this time Uchiha Tokumitsu mobilized a large number of ninja troops to rescue a family jounin. So next time if he is in danger, even if there is not such a big battle, the village will not give up easily, otherwise the public opinion will backfire and it will not be able to suffer. Walk along.
For the Jounin of Konoha, although the Uchiha clan has a strong position that no one can challenge in the Ninja world, and there is no possibility of reaching the top, but everyone's life is better than that of the original Hokage. Since the Issei's reign was better, everyone was still willing to continue to support Uchiha.
"Sakumo-kun is right..."
Uchiha Tokko nodded repeatedly.
He just likes a partner like Hatake Sakumo who knows how to advance and retreat!
"But the restoration and leveling of this battlefield is a big project..."
Hatake Sakumo also sighed.
Uchiha Tokumitsu also sighed and looked at the devastated battlefield.
Since both sides showed no mercy after the fight broke out, and did not care about the life and death of the mortals in the distant county, not only the battle area was blasted with countless deep holes by various powerful magical techniques, but even the walls of Fushimi County were also destroyed. It was collapsed by the aftermath of the battle. As for the amount of damage inside the county city, it is temporarily unknown.
"I will ask the United Company to help the county and city to deal with the reconstruction that needs to be done, and the compensation that needs to be compensated..."
At this time, Uchiha Tokumitsu no longer cares about the expenditure of funds, "After all, they have suffered an unreasonable disaster, and some compensation is better than nothing."
"The innocent people are innocent..."
Hatake Sakumo also sighed with compassion.
"But who was the person who captured Josuke Jounin?"
"...It should be the new earth walker of Miaomu Mountain."
Uchiha said calmly.
He has not yet decided whether to reveal the secrets of the ancient Otsutsuki clan to others, for fear that the listeners will "break their hearts."
"It's Miaomu Mountain again..."
Hatake Sakumo also frowned, "Why are these aliens still lingering?"
"It shows that the joint counter-terrorism force is still short of manpower and must continue to be strengthened."
Uchiha Demitsu said casually.
Although the Uchiha clan has determined the route of internal integration and strengthening of armaments, it is difficult to eliminate the secret black hands with the power of the clan alone, so the subsequent expansion of Konoha's standing ninja army also needs to be planned.
"Sooner or later, we have to plow through the courtyard and clean up the caves, and eradicate all those aliens!"
Hatake Sakumo snorted coldly.
After beheading Shima Sennin in Mt. Myoki in a surprise attack, it meant that there would be no chance of relaxation from now on, so Hatake Sakumo couldn't wait to destroy those aliens as soon as possible.
Otherwise, who knows how vengeful these long-lived aliens can be. Even if Hatake Sakumo is not afraid, he still has descendants of his clan.
"Lord Tokumitsu..."
An attendant ninja came over and knelt on one knee in front of Uchiha Tokko.
"The daimyo's governor is here..."
"...Daimyo? Why did he send people here?"
Uchiha Tokko was a little puzzled.
"He said he wanted to express condolences to the Ninja Army and congratulate Lord Tokumitsu on another great victory!"
The attendant ninja replied.
"How could the Ninja Army get his turn to be proclaimed?"
This was what Uchiha Tokko cared about the most, so he became even more annoyed: "Let the envoy of the daimyo go to the county and wait for you!"
"Sakumo-kun..."
"It doesn't hurt to meet up later."
Hatake Sakumo has a clear understanding.
"But why did the daimyo suddenly make some movement?"
After waving away the attendant ninja, Uchiha Tokko asked casually.
"Maybe he is unwilling to be lonely..."
Hatake Sakumo shrugged, "Of course, I don't rule out being frightened. After all, this is close to Kinki, so it must be easy to observe the movement here."
"It seems that the quality of the direct ninja troops raised by the daimyo is pretty good..."
Uchiha Tokko was thoughtful.
"But they are nothing more than chickens and dogs..."
Hatake Sakumo answered with a smile.
"After all, you still have to find a balance. There is no need to rush..."
Uchiha Tokko sighed.
Hatake Sakumo said no more.
After all, Konoha lacks management ninjas, so the progress of "actual control" in various parts of the Fire Country has always been unsatisfactory. In addition, the United Company's energy has been focused on the contracted oasis of the Wind Country that can be plundered, and there is not much Too much energy is involved in the internal affairs of the Country of Fire - and the United Company's methods are not suitable for use in the Country of Fire, which is regarded as native by Konoha ninjas.
Therefore, the actual control of nearly one-half of the counties and cities in the Fire Country is still in the hands of the daimyo and nobles, including the richest Kinki region.

"When will the ninja army be allowed to move north?"
After the two were silent for a while, Hatake Sakumo suddenly asked.
"Kumogakure and Iwagakure are just dead bones in the graves, not a danger..."
Uchiha Tokumitsu responded in the same way as before.
"You know, the martial arts faction probably can't wait any longer."
Hatake Sakumo said: "Although I don't know why you are so cautious, Tokko-kun, but the village has long been different from the past, and there is no problem in going north."
"After a while, after the Sunagakure incident subsides, let's hold a secret meeting of the two houses to make a joint decision..."
Uchiha Tokumitsu expressed his support for the "jounin military aristocratic group" and changed the topic.
"Speaking of which...it seems that the Intelligence Department has not found out how Feng Ying disappeared."
Hatake Sakumo also became interested.
Because the abduction of Uchiha Josuke was too sudden, Uchiha Tokimitsu devoted all his energy to tracking the clan members, and paid much less attention to the disappearance of Sunagakure's Kazekage.
"It doesn't matter what the truth is, it just depends on how Luo Sha uses his hands and feet."
Although Uchiha Tokko had already identified the suspect in his mind and arranged for the Ninja Cat Clan to conduct a secret pursuit, after all, the matter was too mysterious, so he did not disclose it. He only mentioned the Ninja who led the joint anti-terrorist force led by Luo Sha. The military returned to the country to fight for power.
"Besides, after giving him so many ninja troops as support, if he still can't deal with the Wind Country issue, I can only say that he was wrong."
"Let's go, the battlefield is almost cleared, let's go see what the daimyo's envoy is going to do!"
Although Hatake Sakumo had something to say, Uchiha Tokumitsu had already said so, so he couldn't continue to say more.
…
"Under the orders of His Highness the Sacred Daimyo of the Land of Fire, I have taken the liberty to come and pay homage to His Excellency Tokumitsu and Mr. Sakumo."
Perhaps it was the show of power that played a role. The attitude of the Daimyo's envoy was very humble. He did not mention the so-called titles such as "all the people respect and rule the land", but instead took the initiative to lower the Daimyo's claim to the same status as Uchiha Tokumitsu. .
"When will the messenger come?"
Hatake Sakumo asked.
"Your Majesty Tokumitsu is powerful all over the world, but Fushimi County, where mortals live, has also suffered losses, so I came to express my condolences, and at the same time, I will inform all the adults of Konoha."
Although the envoy's attitude was humble, he did not give in too much in his words. Instead, he continued to advocate the Fire Country's official sovereignty over the county and city.
"Thank you for your hard work, envoy. Just leave the relief supplies. As for internal affairs... Konoha will arrange for the joint company to handle it!"
Hatake Sakumo glanced at the expressionless Uchiha Tokimitsu and continued.
"Your Highness the Daimyo..."
The messenger immediately tried to argue.
"Why is the Daimyo sacred?"
Uchiha Tokko interrupted the messenger.
"Daimyo is born sacred!"
The messenger bravely responded to Uchiha Tokko's malicious question.
"What proof is there of being sacred?"
Uchiha Tokko asked: "Is it immortality or invulnerability to all laws?"
"His Royal Highness the Daimyo and all other Highnesses from the Four Kingdoms are all descendants of the Son of Heaven. It is due to their blood and divine destiny!"
The messenger held his head high and his chest was full of pride when he spoke.
"I heard that the daimyo possesses one of the three artifacts from the Ancestor Emperor's period, but I don't know if this is true or not..."
An inexplicable smile appeared on Uchiha Deguang's face.
"Qiongquyu, one of the three artifacts, is the sacred symbol of the daimyo!"
The messenger's head was raised higher.
"So... I don't know..."
Uchiha Tokumitsu did not open the Mangekyo Sharingan, so he condensed a small Yasaka Magatama in his palm, and said meaningfully: "But I don't know how valuable the Daimyo's Magatama is. Compared with the Magatama in my palm, What’s the difference…”
Even if he is not a ninja, the messenger can feel the intoxicating power of the chakra magatama in Uchiha Tokumitsu's palm, and he can't help but swallow his saliva in horror.
"Why is the name so sacred?"
Uchiha Tokko asked again.
"The great names are in the lineage for eternity, and the sacred position is given by heaven!"
Although the messenger was extremely panicked, he still argued forcefully.
"How many jounin does the Daimyo-sama have?"
Uchiha Demitsu sneered and asked immediately.
"...His Majesty the Daimyo has no ninjas under his command. He is just a samurai servant who was spread rumors by ignorant villagers."
The sweat on the messenger's forehead could no longer stop.
"That's good……"
Uchiha Tokko nodded.
The messenger felt a little relieved, but Uchiha Tokumitsu's next words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"I will lead another ninja army to Luo someday, and let's see how sacred the daimyo's songyu is!"
Then the confused envoy was tackled by the attendant ninjas.
"Actually, there is no need to let the Daimyo know too much..."
Hatake Sakumo has a different opinion.
"Anyway, in order to fight against the outside world, we must first settle down the inside. It is also a time sooner or later. Let the daimyo be prepared so that we can catch them all..."
Uchiha Demitsu said nonchalantly.
Today’s update (2/2)
The so-called "jade" in this chapter is "Yasaka Magatama", one of the three sacred weapons of Japan. However, in order to distinguish it from Susanoo's skills, it is called "magatama", which essentially means the same thing.
In addition, the nobility of "jade" also has another meaning, which is about the ownership of the right to rule. There is also a dispute about the "ownership of jade" in the original work, which also led to the civil strife of the daimyo guardian ninja; but Asuma The realization before death seems a bit far-fetched.
PS: For synonyms, please refer to the allusion of "The King of Chu aspires to the throne".
