Chapter 522: Battle Clouds in the Eastern Sea
"Your Majesty! The East China Sea is urgent! “
Uchiha Fugaku, the commander of the Second Legion, hurried to the island of the Sacred Tree, and after multiple inspections by the Imperial Forest Army, he was able to sit in the Sacred Tree.
Although he was very unhappy with the inspection behavior of the Imperial Forest Army ninjas, who were also from the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku maintained a respectful posture on the surface.
"Is there a war situation?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu asked with a frown as he recovered from his meditative state with his eyes closed.
"Yes......"
Uchiha Fugaku replied respectfully: "According to the comprehensive intelligence of the Chambord Islands' hidden intelligence ninja and the advance fleet, it is very likely that the puppet government navy has strengthened its military deployment recently, or intends to make some moves in the direction of the East China Sea......
"What a hassle......
Uchiha Tokumitsu released Chakra Manifestation to ingest the intelligence information in Fugaku's hand and flipped through it.
There are not many specific situations shown in the intelligence data, except for the information on the transfer of naval warships, which is a large road cargo, the others are based on various 'clues' speculation, but based on the comprehensive quality of the ninja's old profession, on the whole, the various reasoning is quite reasonable.
And all the public information and intelligence research and judgment finally point to one result - war!
And it will be a large-scale, all-dimensional war!
Uchiha Tokumitsu also saw in it the specific naming of the ninja forces belonging to the world government - the Deep Sea Rebels!
"It seems that a big war is inevitable......"
Uchiha Tokumitsu raised his head and looked at the towering sacred tree.
After months of 'planting', the tree is growing in particular favourite, but as it grows in height, it becomes more and more difficult to conceal.
Originally, it was only necessary to place warships on the periphery, but now it is necessary to expand the warning circle beyond the sea level centered on the island of the sacred tree, and if it takes some time, the scope of this warning zone will only grow larger, until all the ships of the fleet are deployed to cover the existence of the sacred tree.
Therefore, sooner or later, the anomalies of the Island of the Divine Tree, the Devil's Triangle Sea, and even the desert island north will be discovered, and when the time comes, it will not be as simple as a war in the East China Sea.
Uchiha Tokumitsu has never underestimated the power of the pirate world.
"Call ...... call-up"
After a moment of silence, Uchiha Tokumitsu said, "Inform the six-tailed beast and the two clones of the Great Immortals, and let them all fight with me!" ”
"And on the side of the Second Army...... Draw a third of your troops! ”
"Your Majesty plans to enlist in person?!"
Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
Even if he has some thoughts that he shouldn't have, but that's just selfishness, from the standpoint of the Uchiha clan, no one can replace the role of Uchiha Tokumitsu - especially at the moment when the dynasty has been established for less than two years!
If anything goes wrong in the war......
"You don't need to say anything more, who else but me?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu said helplessly: "It's a pity that the time doesn't wait for me......"
Then he turned around and continued to meditate on the sacred tree.
Uchiha Fugaku hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything more, and bowed to Uchiha Tokumitsu's back before slowly stepping back away.
It's just that this time, the 'growth' of the sacred tree and the special fluctuations that are spilling out all the time make Uchiha Fugaku's heart surge.
What a desperate power......
Although we don't know much about the so-called 'Sacred Tree', judging from the information obtained from credible sources, the 'Flame Fan', an artifact that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Uchiha clan, is made from a branch of the Sacred Tree in the ancient period of the ninja world, which also shows how terrifying the power of the Divine Tree can be!
Coupled with the anomalies that have appeared in this world after the Divine Tree was planted; This includes, but is not limited to, the eerie storm of the Demon Triangle begins to subside, the windless belt begins to stir up wind and waves, and the magnetic field of the navigation ship begins to become deranged...... All of them show that the Sacred Tree is influencing the world in some mysterious way.
As for whether this situation is good or bad, Uchiha Fugaku can't say clearly.
But the only thing he knows is that the 'Immortal Seed', which began to fall silent after entering the Pirate World, is now in a somewhat budding state, and there is already a breath of natural energy in the ninja world in the air - although extremely weak, it is real.
And in front of Uchiha Tokumitsu, who was in charge of such a great power, the genius eldest son who originally supported Uchiha Fugaku's arrogant heart suddenly seemed to be out of the blue.
"What an unreasonable world ......"
After boarding the departing clipper, Uchiha Fugaku still looked back at the sacred tree that went straight into the clouds, stunned.
……
Uchiha Tokumitsu's Great Summoning Order suddenly broke the silence that had been deliberately maintained in the Demon Triangle and the surrounding seas.
The momentum of the six-headed sealed tailed beast and the two-tailed contract tailed beast and the two tails of the contract tailed beast can be called covering the sky, especially in this vast world, the tailed beasts do not need to deliberately shrink their size, the vast world is completely enough for them to stretch out the body of the tailed beast, plus more than a thousand ninjas and ten battleships of the first legion, Uchiha Tokuguang can be regarded as the strength of the ninja world arranged at the bottom of the pirate world.
"With such a large war, I'm afraid the impact on this side of the world will be a lot......
Looking at the seven-tailed beast that was swimming in the water, running on the sea, and flying in the sky, the slug immortal couldn't help but sigh.
"This is war."
Uchiha Tokumitsu looked at the vast sea and subconsciously replied, "Only by fighting can we stop the war." ”
"But according to my doppelganger...... It seems that most of the land in this world is islands, but it may be a little larger......"
The Slug Immortal squirmed, turned his tentacles to Uchiha Tokumitsu and asked, "If the Tailed Beast Jade sinks the island, then isn't it a loss for both this world and the ninja government?" ”
"What doesn't belong to you, no amount of loss is a loss."
The White Snake Immortal clone standing in the back said compassionately: "If you can't ask for it, it's better to destroy it." ”
Although this is not a good sound, Uchiha Tokumitsu also acquiesced.
"That's the ...... competition"
The slug immortal sighed.
As the only creature in the Wet Bone Forest, the Slug Immortal doesn't have much pressure to survive, and it's understandable that they are too peaceful in their perception of certain things compared to groups like ninjas or dragon caves who must fight for survival and even leap forward.
But Uchiha Tokumitsu doesn't hate the character of the Slug Immortal, because it's actually more reassuring to get along and cooperate with this kind of 'True Virgin'.
As for the Dragon's Cave......
If Uchiha Tokumitsu remembers correctly, the White Snake Immortal has secretly sent countless ninja snakes to infiltrate the pirates around the world in an attempt to find an opportunity to turn into a dragon.
It's just that it doesn't matter, as long as the Dragon Earth Cave is not relocated into the pirate world as a whole, the White Snake Immortals with weaknesses can handle it.
Of course, the so-called devil fruits that can turn into dragons are not nothing, although they are extremely rare, but they can always find some clues, but I don't know if the dinosaur form obtained by eating the ancient devil fruits of the animal system meets the needs of the White Snake Immortals' 'dragon'.
Even Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little looking forward to seeing what kind of reaction the White Snake Immortal would have after eating the Dragon Dragon Fruit, but instead of improving his strength and lifespan much, he had added a disadvantage of being afraid of the Hailou Stone.
……
At this time, the Asura was very dissatisfied.
Not only dissatisfied with the training progress of the so-called Thirteen Republican Coalition Army, but also dissatisfied with the menacing navy, and even more felt that Uchiha Tokumitsu, who had made a big move to gather people to help, was actually not at ease with his own strength!
In his opinion, the six immortals are the first in the world, and Uchiha Tokumitsu is barely the second in the ninja world, and he is the top three powerhouses in the ninja world, especially after being defeated by Uchiha Tokumitsu, he has also cultivated himself for a period of time, and has mastered a lot of secret techniques by digging the memories of the previous reincarnation, and has made a lot of progress in both the foundation of strength and the means of responding to the enemy - but Uchiha Tokumitsu still feels that he can't defeat the enemy!
But fortunately, Asura's mind has grown somewhat, especially after the beginning of the establishment of the republic, after all kinds of tedious and specific routine exercises, he also understands the truth that 'the gap between people is bigger than the gap between people and dogs', so even if the inner dissatisfaction is overflowing on his face, he still maintains a certain degree of restraint when communicating verbally.
It's just that in Uzumaki Yira's opinion, Asura's reaction is nothing more than dead tsundere.
Whether it was an attempt to train and drive the so-called coalition forces of the Thirteen Republics, which perfectly fit the characteristics of the rabble, or their unauthorized tampering with the 'revolutionary mission', in Uzumaki Ichiraku's view, Asura's actions were like an arrogant child trying to prove something, and as for 'can or can't', it was not Asura's first starting point for thinking about things.
Therefore, after receiving the report of the Imperial Pilot's personal expedition, Uzumaki Ichiraku directly called Uchiha Shiina and transferred five cruisers from the advance fleet as a supplement to the upcoming battle, thus forming a complementary advantage with the ten battleships that the Second Army came to support.
"In this way, the purpose of training the coalition army of the republic cannot be achieved."
Asura complained a little.
And those rabble, when they learned that the navy had increased their troops to attack, they immediately became disheartened, and were finally ambushed by the Asura The internal turmoil, at this time, the arrival of the ninja army directly took over the control of the upcoming large-scale war, which also means that the Asura has lost control of the future.
As for complaining in front of Uzumaki Ichiraku, it is mainly because he will inevitably have some psychological advantages in front of the Uzumaki ninja who is a descendant of his own bloodline,—— although Uzumaki Ichiraku does not know that this dead tsundere is his ancestor.
"But the National Guard is already ...... to fight"
Uzumaki Ichiraku had a little headache, feeling like he was coaxing a child, not only to consider the actual situation, but also to take care of a dead arrogant mood, which really made him a little embarrassed: "Moreover, those mortals have lost too much, which may lead to the unstable situation in the republic in the rear, so it is also a good thing to be able to get rid of the war." ”
"It is said that there is a general among the comers?"
The asura immediately changed the subject.
Of course, he knew that it would be difficult for the stinky fish and rotten shrimp under his command to fight even if it was a good fight, let alone a tough confrontation with the menacing navy.
Therefore, it is just a pretext to play on the topic to vent the dissatisfaction after the abrupt death of the revolutionary expansion.
"It should be, but which general it is, the intelligence officers still can't determine ......"
Uzumaki Ichiraku said helplessly: "However, this battle is different from the Battle of Jincheng, since Your Majesty has decided to conquer in person, it must be to lay the pattern for the next few years through a big battle." ”
"Also, after all, it takes time for the Sacred Tree to grow......"
Asura said.
Uzumaki was speechless.
Can this kind of secret be told casually?
……
The battle in the East China Sea was the first to start with the advance fleet led by Uchiha Shiina.
After receiving the order from the rear, he immediately began to assemble the battleships, and no longer attacked everywhere in the form of a detachment, but began a new round of 'pull-out operations'.
In a very short period of time, the Second Operational Group in the East China Sea, under the direct command of Vice Admiral Karp, lost contact with the three outlying stations under the rapid offensive, and the warships under the command of Uchiha Shiina even directly launched an attack on the naval anchorage, sinking or burning several auxiliary ships.
For a time, the bloated navy became blind.
The familiar sea has become a treacherous place full of 'fog of war'.
Therefore, Vice Admiral Karp is faced with a problem, that is, how to force the 'deep sea rebels' and how to fight his own side head-on.
He has a lot of cards in his hand, especially the fact that there is a giant army under the command of Lieutenant General Crane that has never shown its face, which can be called unparalleled in combat power, but the problem is how to engage the elusive 'deep sea rebels', which is the key.
“…… Now the only way is to use your body as bait to lure the enemy into a decisive battle! ”
Lieutenant General Tsuru voiced his opinion.
Since the ship's performance can't match the deep sea rebels, try to pull them into the territory you know best, and defeat them with your experience.
"How to lure the enemy?"
A major general asked with some apprehension.
"Vice Admiral Karp led all the ships to take the initiative, and I took the giant troops to stay at the anchorage, waiting for the deep-sea rebels to attack!"
Lieutenant General Tsuru said.
"Isn't that too risky......
Lieutenant General Karp was stunned when he heard this.
For an army, unless it is a high-level stronghold in the form of a complete fortress, such as a fortress city, its garrison is never concentrated, and those small strongholds that are scattered and garrisoned serve as a control of the sea area, and secondly, to prevent the enemy from driving straight into the base camp without the knowledge of the base camp.
However, the advantage of the advance fleet's warships was too obvious, so after the stronghold was attacked, the core garrison of the navy had no time to react, and the stronghold was declared to fall under the fierce attack, and by the time the reinforcements arrived, not only had the stronghold been completely destroyed, but the enemy had long been gone.
After coming and going, the morale of the navy was inevitably somewhat frustrated.
"It doesn't take more than an hour for the deep-sea rebels to break through a stronghold, and all we can do is to complete the reinforcements and achieve encirclement and annihilation within an hour!"
Lieutenant General Tsuru briefly reviewed the battle situation in several outlying strongholds and gave his own opinion.
"But...... Even if they can induce the enemy, the naval ships that go out to fight may not be able to complete the reinforcement so quickly. ”
Lieutenant General Karp did not reject Lieutenant General Tsuru's proposal, but raised another question: "Moreover, they must have some special means of communication and surveillance, but if they return to help, they will inevitably be alarmed." ”
"When the deep-sea rebels attacked the headquarters station, they also asked Vice Admiral Karp to lead the admiral to abandon the battleship and rush back directly on a clipper!"
Lieutenant General Tsuru said firmly: "As for dragging the enemy army, that's my problem!" ”
"In that case......
Lieutenant General Karp pondered for a moment, and then made a decision: "Then the Bodi side will leave it to you!" ”
