Chapter 222 Uchiha Madara's Excitement! [Seeking monthly ticket support]
In the 49th year of Konoha, the ninja world was shaken.
Ever since the four major ninja villages joined forces to declare war on Konoha, they have always had the upper hand. The number of ninja armies deployed by the four major ninja villages alone has exceeded 40,000, which is the largest number in the ninja war so far.
Konoha, the first of the five major ninja villages, has a total of more than 30,000 ninjas in the entire village.
Despite everyone's pessimism about the situation, Konoha managed to hold on for five years and even made a shocking reversal this autumn.
After five years of fighting with the four major ninja villages, Konoha launched its first counterattack.
Not only did they regain the lost territory in one fell swoop, but the Kannabi Bridge was also destroyed by the Konoha ninja, causing the morale of the Iwagakure ninja to plummet, and they were even driven into the heart of the Grass Country in one breath.
After Kumogakure retreated to the Frost Country, Konoha showed its intention to cut off their retreat and launch another attack on the Kannabi Bridge, which made the Third Raikage furious, but he had to recall this army reluctantly.
Not to mention Ebizo's branch of Sand Ninja. After retreating to the border of Rain Country, they chose to merge with River Country without waiting for Konoha to take action.
After all, the geographical advantages of the Rain Country have a huge impact on the Sand Ninjas.
Moon Country, Hidden Cloud Camp.
"Father!"
After seeing his son coming back, the Third Raikage Ai showed a gratified look and nodded in satisfaction:
"The battlefield is where men are trained. You have grown a lot in the past five years. I will be relieved when I hand over the village to you in the future."
However, facing his father, the Fourth Raikage candidate Ai seemed to feel aggrieved.
"Father, even if Konoha counterattacks temporarily, our four ninja villages may not be afraid if they join forces. Why do you want me to withdraw our troops from the Frost Country? Konoha's biggest disadvantage is that the ninjas are not as strong as us..."
Ai, the candidate for the Fourth Raikage who has fought for five years, is now facing this frustrating retreat. Naturally, he is filled with dissatisfaction.
However, the Third Raikage Ai frowned after hearing this, and then said in a deep voice:
"You are not only my son! You are also the future Fourth Raikage. You must understand one thing! War is never just on the battlefield. Over the years, you have led a ninja army alone, and you have not learned much about the political affairs of the village...
"That's right! As you said, Konoha's biggest disadvantage is its military strength, but now look at the current situation of our village, can we still support a two-front war?"
As a top-secret scroll of Kumogakure was opened, the Fourth Raikage candidate Ai frowned and stepped forward to check it out, but the more he looked, the uglier his expression became.
"Father! How is this possible? How could our Cloud Village be so weak? How could the troops we invested in the battlefield suffer such heavy losses?"
The Fourth Raikage candidate Ai was in disbelief and looked at his father in shock.
This top-secret scroll contained various information such as the current backup resources of the Hidden Cloud Village. The lines of red words were shocking to read, especially the information about the ninja's military strength. He was filled with disbelief.
"how is this possible?"
Looking at his son, the Third Raikage shook his head, his eyes heavy as he said hoarsely:
"Why did our four major ninja villages wage war against Konoha? Isn't it because of the wealth of the Land of Fire? We have indeed dragged down Konoha over the years, and we are also facing difficulties!"
The four major ninja villages joined forces to compete with Konoha in consumption, but the final result was the same. This shows how deep Konoha's foundation is.
"You only see the ninjas on the battlefield, but you don't see the disabled who have to retreat to the second line, and even can't be ninja companions. In fact, after five years of war, our new generation of cloud ninjas has consumed a lot...
Not to mention that the conflict between black and white has intensified under the tactics of the Konoha Root. During this war, the Daimyofu has made a choice, and so have we…”
As the heavy voice of the Third Raikage echoed, the mustachioed Fourth Raikage candidate Ai looked extremely ugly.
Black and white conflict!
The economy is on the verge of collapse!
The military suffered heavy losses!
At this time, the Fourth Raikage candidate Ai looked dazed. He vaguely remembered that before the war, the Hidden Cloud Village was still so powerful that it could compete with the Hidden Rock Village for the second largest ninja village.
As a result, the situation in the Hidden Cloud Village has become so bad.
Almost at the bottom!
"The conflict between black and white, Shimura Danzo is really ruthless, this is another invisible war. Over the years, we have had internal conflicts and countless white ninjas have defected, which has had a huge impact on the economy.
Especially under the guidance of the Konoha Root, most of these rebel ninjas are entrenched in the Land of Hot Springs, the Land of Fields, and the Land of Frost, and have formed many forces..."
Cultivating enemy forces is a common tactic used by major ninja villages. For example, the various ninja forces within the Land of Rain. If there were no secret support from the major ninja villages, how could Hanzo Salamander have failed to pacify the Land of Rain after so many years.
The most typical example is the Akatsuki organization. The Iwagakure Village continuously hired large amounts of capital and this further strengthened the Akatsuki organization.
Everyone knew the original purpose, which was to plunge the Rain Kingdom into turmoil.
By the same token, the conflict between black and white in the Hidden Cloud Village is so obvious, how could the roots of Konoha miss this good opportunity.
"I understand father!"
At this moment, the fighting desire in the eyes of the Fourth Raikage candidate Ai was suppressed by heavy pressure, and he felt how great the pressure of the Shadow was.
"Don't worry, even though the village suffered heavy losses, Konoha is not much better off!"
After seeing that his son understood the responsibility of a Kage, the Third Raikage smiled with satisfaction.
"In this battle, we also dragged down Konoha. Although the Land of Fire is rich, the contradictions within Konoha can no longer be concealed. The Mangekyo, Uchiha, and major families are also conflicts that cannot be avoided!"
"Now we will concentrate our forces on the battlefield in the Land of Hot Springs, and destroy all forces in the Land of Hot Springs while fighting Konoha!"
When he said this, the Third Raikage showed a look of determination.
If Konoha is allowed to continue like this, the small countries around the Land of Lightning will be filled with defected white ninja forces.
Wouldn’t that mean we are surrounding the Kingdom of Thunder?
Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of the war to create a gap for the Hidden Cloud Village in the Land of Lightning.
……
The country of whirlpool.
"Night, Kushina stayed with Sister Tsunade."
When they arrived at the Whirlpool Country, an island country caught in the war, Uchiha Mikoto couldn't help but sigh.
After hearing this, Uchiha Ye nodded slightly.
"Kushina's status as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is known to all in the ninja world. She is too conspicuous. At the same time, she and Sister Tsunade can support two other battlefields at the same time in the Grass Country battlefield."
The power of Uzumaki Kushina, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, is most effective when used on a frontal battlefield.
Especially since they have to face three major ninja villages on the front battlefield and there is only one Hidden Mist Village behind them, it is naturally not worth it.
"Ye, this time we are also bringing the two reserve teams of Minato Namikaze and Shinnosuke Sarutobi to the battlefield of Kirigakure..."
Uchiha Mikoto had a gentle smile on her face, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes. When Uchiha Ye saw this, he couldn't help but chuckle. He naturally knew what Mikoto was dissatisfied with.
"Misaka, it's all for the village." However, after listening to Uchiha Ye's words, Uchiha Misaka smiled indifferently, which was rare, and said sarcastically:
"It's all for the village, but the Third Hokage's son, Sarutobi Shinnosuke, is in the rear, and we have to be on the front line?"
It wasn't just Mikoto. Many ninjas in the ninja army that came this time knew about the three reserve teams, but after the Hokage's son hid behind them, they all showed dissatisfaction.
"Mikoto, sometimes we have to look forward. We may be lucky in the front, but we may not be able to take credit in the back."
After seeing Uchiha Ye revealing a mysterious smile, Uchiha Mikoto was stunned for a moment, and then she thought of something and whispered:
"Night! What do you mean?"
Mikoto seemed to have thought of something, but Uchiha Ye smiled and gently tapped the other's eyebrows.
“Think about it from another perspective. After five years of war, the pressure on the Hidden Mist Village is much greater than that of other villages. After all, the major blood-stained families in the Hidden Mist Village are very powerful.
At this time, it would be very difficult for Kirigakure to create a gap on the battlefield, so they would definitely change their angle and direction. How do you think they would fight?"
Following Uchiha Ye's reminder, Uchiha Mikoto suddenly seemed to have thought of something.
"Of course, the village has thought of this, which is why Sarutobi Shinnosuke is in the rear. However, sometimes a high position still needs to be matched with one's own strength."
Under Uchiha Ye's sarcastic sneer, he knew Kirigakure's actions better than anyone else.
The Seven Ninjas of the Mist sneaked directly into the territory of the Land of Fire. Perhaps their performance in the Impure World War in the later part of the original work was a bit poor, but in fact their combat power was absolutely too strong.
In the original work, Kabuto Orochi used the Seven Ninjas of the Mist to resist a coalition of ninjas. This shows the strength of the Seven Ninjas of the Mist.
It’s just that it didn’t show too strong combat power, or the weakening of the Impure World Reincarnation.
But in fact, the three people who were kicked into the Three Lucky Treasures by Might Guy, Biwa Juuzou, Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost, and Kuroo Raiga, the first two of them combined with the upper ninja swords are definitely Kage-level combat power.
Kuroko Raiga might be a little bit inferior, but he is definitely an elite jonin. If we rank them by strength, then he should be at the quasi-shadow level.
The biggest reason for his failure in the later period was probably the collapse of his faith after his defection, as well as various other combined factors such as injuries. After all, if faith collapses, even a ninja like a demigod will have his combat effectiveness greatly reduced.
After all, he had experienced it in their last initial fight, and Hei Chu Lei Ya's strength was not weak at all.
The other four people are definitely strong enough to reach the elite jonin level. After all, the competition for the ninja swords in the blood mist is not based on seniority.
Combined with the amplification of the jounin swords, the strength of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist is absolutely terrifying, otherwise how could the Hidden Mist Village allow seven people to dare to sneak into the Fire Country and launch a terrorist attack.
"If there really are seven elite jonin, coming to the Land of Fire is nothing but a way to die."
Uchiha Ye shook his head secretly. This is a real world with flesh and blood.
"And it's not just this incident, there's also the incident with the three tails!"
At this time, Uchiha Ye narrowed his eyes. He was not sure whether the incident of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist would happen, but the incident of the Three-Tails would definitely happen.
After all, this is old Bidenban’s masterpiece, there is no way there could be any mistakes.
“This is also my chance!”
When he thought of this, a mysterious smile appeared in Uchiha Ye's eyes.
"At this time, Old Biden can hardly hold on any longer. Maybe he needs me to give him a ride."
When he thought of this, Uchiha Ye couldn't help but narrow his eyes, looked back in a certain direction in the distance, and murmured:
"Perhaps you don't want to end up alone in the dark..."
Rin was besieged by the Mist Ninja, but Obito was able to run over quickly, proving that the cave where Old Biden was hiding was most likely in the Land of Whirlpools, after all, he wanted to secretly control the Mist Ninja.
……
Inside the dark cave.
"Madara-sama, Obito's body has integrated very well..."
Inside the huge cave, Obito, with half of his body patched up, is undergoing arduous adaptation training. With his continuous efforts, the other half of his body is slowly absorbing and fusing with White Zetsu's cells.
Below, White Zetsu tilted his head and spoke in a funny way. It was still impossible for him to understand human emotions.
However, Uchiha Madara looked at Obito's persistence, and when his eyes finally fell on Obito's neck, he seemed to see something.
"This is!?"
Following Uchiha Madara's gaze, White Zetsu seemed to have discovered something and couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.
"This is the mark of space-time ninjutsu!"
"Lord Madara!" Just as White Zetsu was about to reach out to call Obito, he was stopped by Uchiha Madara. At this time, he had a look of confusion on his face.
"It's just a space-time ninjutsu mark. It can be sensed within a certain range."
Uchiha Madara's calm voice echoed, and as he formed a seal, he released a barrier technique, and the cave was immediately completely isolated. Even the Flying Thunder God Technique could not easily sense it.
"Was it an accident, or did you discover something?"
Uchiha Madara sat domineeringly on the stone chair, his lips slowly curled up to reveal an interesting smile on his face.
He didn't expect that Uchiha had actually learned the space-time ninjutsu of this annoying white-haired guy. He is now looking forward to the big scene in the future more and more.
Let the white-haired man see with his own eyes Uchiha hugging the woman of the Senju, growing a few Sharingan, and then using his best Flying Thunder God. The more he thought about it, the more excited Uchiha Madara became.
"Hehe, it seems that this outstanding junior has discovered something over the years. After all, your clone, Bai Zetsu, has made him notice that there are people watching them in the dark..."
As Uchiha Madara's hoarse voice echoed, White Zetsu tilted his head and asked in confusion: "Then, Lord Madara, will it affect our plan?"
"plan!?"
After hearing this, Uchiha Madara immediately revealed a weird smile.
"Our ambitions and plans have never conflicted, but Bai Zetsu, you still need another identity."
When he said this, Uchiha Madara glanced at the white hose connected to his body with his domineering eyes, and a hint of disgust appeared in his eyes.
"Is your body already so weak? But it doesn't matter. Let me, Uchiha Madara, test the ability of this junior to see if he has the ability to make it to the end!"
The exposed Sharingan was even more excited. He was Uchiha Madara. Although there was a perfect resurrection plan, how could he allow himself to die in the darkness and loneliness if he was chosen?
Before, no one in the ninja world could arouse his interest, but now it’s different!
This outstanding junior happened to come to the battlefield in the Kirigakure area, and he could have left happily at the last moment.
"White Zetsu, the original plan remains unchanged, but since you were exposed before, I can take this opportunity to give you a suitable identity!"
More importantly, his rusty body also wanted to stretch its muscles.
"Master Madara, do you want to?"
Under Bai Zetsu's confused eyes, Uchiha Madara, who was sitting upright on the stone chair, showed a smile of excitement and expectation. He wondered if this outstanding junior could make him excited.
