Chapter 245: Wait for the Dead
The elite Shinobi troops led by Uchiha Tokhimitsu stayed in place after arriving at the Settsu Shogunate in, the Land of Fire, and then quietly waited for the Tokumitsu Shogunate of the Vortex Country and the remaining Shinobi of the Fire Gate Shogunate of the Grass Country to arrive.
After counting all the combatants, the number of ninja troops under his command will reach as many as 300.
This is already a force that is enough to dominate the invincible hand of the ninja continent.
What's more, Uchiha De still controls the three-tailed human pillar power on the bright side, and secretly prepares the two-tailed psychic spirit, when necessary, if the two-tailed beast is thrown into the battlefield, I'm afraid no ninja village can resist it.
As one of the four prefectures of, Settsu is very close to the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire.
And the reason why the troops are stationed here is also because Uchiha Tokumitsu intends to take the opportunity of threatening the Daimyo of the Fire Country to force the Hokage to leave the village to fight.
After all, inside Konoha Ninja Village, who knows if there are any inexplicable sealing arrays and other pit goods, relatively speaking, it is more appropriate to choose a county town as a battlefield.
And even if the county seat is abolished, Uchiha Tokumitsu is not distressed.
"Lord Tokumitsu, the family is here......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu expelled the Settsu guardian in the open, and occupied the county guard's mansion, and after settling down and arranging the affairs of the ninja army, the attendant ninja came in to report.
"Bring him here."
Uchiha Tokumitsu said immediately.
The reason why he did not return to the village immediately was also because he had to wait for first-hand information from the family in the village.
"Deguang-kun!"
After a while, the squire ninja walked in with an acquaintance.
"Fu Yuejun, it's you."
Uchiha Tokumitsu raised an eyebrow, a little surprised.
The patriarch's sister-in-law actually went out in person, which is really rare.
"The village is not peaceful, and others may not be able to leave, so I will visit."
Uchiha Fugaku explained, "But seeing the elite under Tokumitsu-kun here, I am also relieved......"
"There are nearly 100 people coming, and all of them are Shangshinobi."
Uchiha Tokumitsu gives Uchiha Fugaku a reassurance.
"That's good......"
Uchiha Fugaku's originally high heart was also relieved.
"But...... Why are there so many forbearances?! ”
Immediately, Uchiha Fugaku trembled in his heart and felt a little dizzy.
"The battlefield is the best training ground for Uchiha ninjas."
Uchiha Tokumitsu's answer was concise and to the point.
Of course, in addition to this reason, Uchiha Tokumitsu's kaleidoscope pupil technique also played a very important catalytic role.
The kaleidoscope pupil technique of the right eye [Great Power Lord] acts as a group auxiliary pupil technique on the Uchiha ninja who is about to break through, allowing him to feel the power of the writing wheel eye of a higher realm in advance, coupled with the bloody excitement on the battlefield, the difficulty of breaking through the realm after the war will naturally be much smaller.
"Three hundred shinobi ......"
Uchiha Fugaku is still in a trance.
Although not all of them are Uchiha ninjas, this force has surpassed the police department stationed in Konoha Village.
And the strength of the police department alone is enough to confront the village, and if you add the two shogunates under the command of Uchiha Tokumitsu, they have surpassed the Hokage family in terms of strength comparison.
"How's the family's situation?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu asked.
“…… For the time being, there is no big problem, and many conflicts have also prevailed. ”
Uchiha Fugaku restrained his emotions and replied softly.
"That's good......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded, "In addition, there is another team of the Red Reserve Team, and I plan to send it back to the village as well, so you can arrange it then." ”
"Now that the clan land is safe, I can naturally fight with peace of mind here."
Uchiha Tokumitsu said.
“…… Then how careful you are. ”
Uchiha Fugaku did not shirk, after all, the Red Reserve is an elite force composed of radicals, and at this time, returning to the village can also strengthen the defense force of the Uchiha clan and avoid the Hokage family from taking risks.
"Also...... Is there really going to be a civil war? ”
Uchiha Fugaku asked again with a wrenched look.
Uchiha Tokumitsu just nodded and didn't speak.
Because it's also nonsense to answer.
Whether or not you really intend to start a civil war, it's time to at least put your posture on a thorough display.
As the saying goes, "be lenient with the enemy", it is always right to prepare for the worst.
"Sakumo-kun sent a message to the shogunate of Mimura Hamaki, intending to recall the Western Border Defense Force......"
Uchiha Fugaku was a little apprehensive, but still said, "Will this have any effect?" ”
"The Hamaki Shogunate is the weakest of the four shogunates, so what if all the people return to the village?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned and said, "In addition, the family should not be too worried about Shuo Maojun's actions, the actions of the Innovation Society are generally beneficial to us. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Uchiha Fugaku humbly asked.
"Do you still think that the power of the family can subdue the entire Konoha?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little impatient, and the brains of these family leaders didn't know how to grow.
"The Innovation Society unites the civilian ninjas and some of the small ninjas, so they don't want to get involved in the factional struggle!"
"As long as the innovation will remain neutral, then even the civil war will be limited between the clan and the Hokage forces, and even if one of them is defeated, the village will be greatly damaged at most, and there will be no danger of destruction."
"And in this way, we will have a lot less pressure, so the family side doesn't have to be too suspicious."
"I see......"
Uchiha Fugaku also nodded, accepting Uchiha Tokumitsu's point of view.
"That'...... What do you think of the candidates for the next Hokage? ”
"Let's talk about getting past this hurdle first!"
Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned and reprimanded: "How can there be such a reason to think about sharing the spoils before you have won the victory!" ”
"Understand...... understood"
Uchiha Fugaku laughed dryly twice and nodded repeatedly.
"If the old monkey leads his troops to leave the village or launch an attack on the tribe's land, remember to inform me in time......
Uchiha Tokumitsu said in a slow tone, "Moreover, I believe that the family should be able to withstand the first wave of attacks from the Hokage family, right?" ”
"No problem, the personnel of the North District Police Station have been shrunk and withdrawn, and the Eastern and Western Districts have been strengthened, and with the strength ......of the Police Headquarters, it can basically be on par with the Hokage's forces."
Uchiha Fugaku also patted his chest and reassured.
"That's good......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu thought about it and decided to give the family another reassurance.
"Peng!"
A black cat appeared in front of the two of them along with the psychic beast smoke.
"Lord Tokumitsu~It's been a long time~"
The ninja cat wagged its tail again and said coquettishly to Uchiha Tokumitsu.
Uchiha Tokumitsu took out a bottle of Kiten-kyo, handed it to the cat, and said to it, "Please go back to Konoha with Fugaku-kun, and if you encounter a dangerous situation, summon me through reverse spiritism." ”
"Obey~"
The cat stretched out its claws to grab the greeting gift handed over by Uchiha Tokumitsu, and nodded in response.
"In that case, I'll go back to the village first."
Uchiha Fugaku also had the sight to get up and resign.
"At that time, the second team of the Red Reserve Team will return directly to the family, and just arrange the personnel to respond......
Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded, summoned a squire ninja to give him instructions, and asked him to send a message to the Red Reserve team directly back to the village.
……
After seeing off Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Tokumitsu returned to the quiet room of the Kenjo Mansion to continue to close his eyes and recuperate.
Although in private, the three generations of apes are not less demoted to "old monkeys", but Uchiha Tokumitsu actually attaches great importance to it.
As the saying goes, "contempt in words, attention in action" is still the same sentence, and there is always nothing wrong with leniency in anticipation of the enemy.
In particular, this kind of behavior, in addition to not clearly raising the banner of rebellion, but all actual actions have already gone against the village, it is necessary to be extremely cautious.
Regardless of whether the Hokage clan took the initiative to attack or waited for the Uchiha clan to go further, both sides had already made up their minds anyway, and they had to do a game to determine the winner.
In terms of power and strategy, Uchiha Tokumitsu has taken some advantage with the advantage of being a prophet, but the Hokage family is not completely dry, otherwise it would not be possible to dominate Konoha for decades.
With the Uchiha clan gaining more and more advantages, there are only two options for the Hokage family.
First, it also strengthened the strength of its own faction and maintained relative suppression of the Uchiha clan;
The second is to take the initiative to interrupt the rising momentum of the Uchiha clan when the Uchiha clan has not reached its peak.
The first method failed with the death of Danzo, and now the second method is what the three generations of apes are planning to take.
"It would be nice if it took another five years......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu had some regrets.
The trap set up in the occupied area of the Land of Thunder, although the Hokage family has determined that Sarutobi Shinnosuke will go to fill the pit, but after all, it is still not stationed at the moment, and this time the plan is not successful, and it has not been able to continuously weaken the Hokage family.
Moreover, after all, it is a civil war, and it is not easy to pull the pepper fish to hide it, and the peak combat power of his own side is relatively insufficient.
Although he has a kaleidoscope writing wheel, Uchiha Tokumitsu is still very cautious.
……
In Konoha Village, with the evacuation of all the members of the North District Police Station of the Police Department, the upper ninja class building has also entered a state of martial law.
And the mobile unit directly assigned to the upper ninja class has become the only Uchiha ninja force in the entire Konoha North District.
After summoning the combat ninjas of the ninja class into the office, Sakushige Hachiki also asked them to sit in the room.
He didn't intend to let the Uchiha Shinobi of the Mobile Force get involved in this conflict, or civil war.
The ninjas under the command of the Innovation Society also put a red sleeve on their left arm and carried out the guard in the civilian areas of the village.
As Tokumitsu Uchiha thought, he didn't want to be involved in this conflict.
Regardless of whether this conflict will turn into a civil war, Sakumo Hachiki has always adhered to the belief that the village cannot be chaotic.
And this is also the reason why Uchiha Tokumitsu is relieved to be stationed abroad and prepare for war with the Hokage forces.
"Lord Sakumo......"
Someone in the office of the head of the upper ninja class pushed the door in and reported to him: "Hokage-sama has gathered the dark department......"
"Probe, report again!"
Sakumo nodded.
Then he looked at the Uchiha Shinobi of the mobile unit, and they still looked impassive.
Hachiki Shuomao's heart was also a little calmer.
After a few more moments, there was another sharp knock on the door outside the office.
"Lord Shuo Shige, the ninjas of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have assembled in the Death Forest!"
One of the upper ninjas entered and said, "Pig Deer Butterfly, Sarutobi, Shimura and other ninja armies have also assembled in the woods behind Shadow Rock. ”
"How many?"
Sakumo Hachiki asked.
"There are more than 300 people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and about 1,000 people in Hokage-sama's ninja army......"
"If you add the shadows, you'll have 1,500 people......"
Hachiki Shuomao nodded, noncommittal.
The number of people is actually of little significance, and the focus is on the decisive battle between the three generations of apes and Uchiha Tokumitsu, which is the core of the civil war.
With fewer people, the village will lose less.
No matter who wins or loses on both sides, both Konoha ninjas, Sakumo Hachiki will feel sad.
But there is nothing to be done, the Hokage family is no longer willing to listen to what conditions Uchiha Tokumitsu has, so the matter is not over without distinguishing a winner or loser.
“…… Did Tsunade Hime make any changes? ”
Sakumo Hachiki asked again.
"The land of the Thousand Hands Clan has been completely blocked, and there are ninjas on the high wall who are on guard, and no abnormal ...... have been found for the time being."
Shangshinobi, who came to report, replied.
"That's good......"
Sakumo Hachiki also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Tsunade, who represents the orthodox inheritance of Konoha, doesn't choose to take sides, then everything is easy to say.
"Let's keep an eye out for it."
Sakumo Hachiki said.
The Uchiha Kaminin, a group of mobile troops, remained calm and composed, as if they had not heard of it.
……
In the Hokage's office, the three generations of apes also changed into combat uniforms, and the Hokage's hat was also placed on the desk, holding a helmet in his hand.
Mito Menyan and Koharu are also wearing shinobi uniforms, carrying huge scrolls on their backs, and they are also ready for battle.
"Hokage-sama, all the ministries are ready!"
A dark man pushed the door into the interior to report.
“…… Good. ”
The third generation of apes and flying suns nodded, "Wait for the order." ”
"Yes!"
The Shadow Ninja then went out.
"Yan and Xiaochun, we haven't fought side by side together for many years."
The third generation of apes Fei Ri smiled and said, "I hope our old muscles and bones can still be used......
“…… Do you want to send someone to call for the wind again? ”
Mito Menyan did not answer directly, but mentioned Akido Fuki.
"Of the six of us, there are ...... now"
Koharu was about to say something, but was interrupted by the three generations of apes flying in the sun.
"You don't have to go, and he doesn't want to."
The third generation of apes shook their heads, "The village still needs someone to sit down......
There is another reason that everyone knows, that is, there are still some wall-riding factions within the Pig, Deer and Butterfly clans who are unwilling to use the strength of the three clans to fight against the Uchiha clan.
"Knock knock!"
Another dark knock on the door and entered.
"Hokage-sama, Hinata, Inuzuka, and Oil Girl all refuse to accept the call......"
The dark part said cautiously: "And the families of the Inuzuka and Oil Girl clans have been transferred to the Hyuga clan......
"Another wall-riding ......"
The three generations of apes flew to the sun and laughed.
However, intellectually it is also very understandable, they feel that the Hokage forces have little chance of winning against the Uchiha clan, or even if they win, it can only be a miserable victory, so they simply remain neutral.
"The Shuomao Force, the Thousand Hands Clan, and the Hyuga Clan...... They've all chosen neutrality......"
The third generation of apes and flying sun squirmed bitterly: "Is my government so failed? ”
"It's useless to talk too much!"
Mito Menyan said lightly.
"It's also ......"
The third generation of apes Fei Ri nodded, "Then let's fight!" ”
"Phew!"
I found the feeling, and after eating, I will change the second chapter!
