Konoha: Uchiha Extremists? Offering Loyalty!

Chapter 213 The Secret Cooperation of Rock, Sand, and Cloud!

"Too dangerous!"

"The safety of the Grassland Defense Line rests entirely on the commander's shoulders. How could such a dangerous plan be executed!"

The Nara Jonin shook his head repeatedly, indicating his opposition.

Those in positions of authority should fulfill their duties.

Their mission is to defend the Grassland's defense line and prevent the Stone Village from invading the Land of Fire.

That Iwa ninja force has been busy dealing with the Land of Waterfalls and the Land of Iron, showing no signs of invading the Land of Fire to the south.

There's no need to put yourself in danger.

Even if you win, you won't reap any benefits.

We lost. The Grassland Defense Line is finished.

Ultimately, it comes down to them having too few people.

Hatake Sakumo clenched his white teeth, a thin layer of lightning emanating from his skin, and solemnly said, "The village has suffered from war for a long time. How can we achieve victory without taking risks?"

Everyone wanted to say, "What does this have to do with us?"

With a ninja force of less than three thousand and almost no replenishment, they managed to hold off Iwagakure for two and a half years!

This achievement deserves recognition from everyone!

They could not speak out because of the will of fire.

I could only turn my gaze to the Jonin Nara, and say something!

The Nara Jonin closed his eyes, rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes and asked, "Lord Hatake, are you sure you want to take the risk?"

"determine."

What makes you confident?

Sakumo Hatake slowly closed his eyes, exuding an indescribable aura. Subtle lightning crackled around him, finally converging into the sharp white fang.

The staff officers all took a step back, staring at Sakumo Hatake in horror.

That aura...it was terrifying!

Do all Kage-level powerhouses have this level of skill?

"Lord Hatake...you've broken through?" Nara Jonin asked, his voice strained and under pressure.

"Something has been gained." Sakumo Hatake slowly withdrew his aura, nodding with a smile: "Prepare for battle!"

"Yes!"

...

The defense line of Tang.

Yuuki stood atop the Sky Piercing Throne, overlooking the Cloud Ninja army. Beside him were ten Uchiha clansmen with three tomoe, and behind him were tens of thousands of leaping insects and thousands of police allied forces.

The kaleidoscope was spinning, and he was like a god standing on the clouds, scrutinizing the futile atrocities of the rebels.

The Third Raikage, missing an arm, stared intently at Yuuki, not daring to make a move.

Even with his improved strength, he knew he was no match for Uchiha Yuuki.

He raised his only remaining arm and swung it down with all his might.

Tu Tai shouted, "Ready! Spread out! Charge!"

Several thousand Cloud Ninja, divided into more than a dozen teams, charged towards the Leaf Village's position in a frontal assault.

After an internal meeting in Kumogakure, it was concluded that Konoha lacked experience in large-scale military operations.

They decided to stop fighting small-scale, decentralized intelligence warfare and command operations that involved dividing troops into several groups.

On the main battlefield, there are several thousand ninjas.

Wood and clouds clashed, ninjutsu flew wildly.

The first battle is the decisive battle; one battle will decide the fate of the world!

"Minister, Kumogakure is acting too recklessly. I'm afraid there's something fishy going on," Mikoto Uchiha said, standing beside Yuuki with a worried expression.

Yuuki chuckled and ruffled Mikoto's hair: "Of course there's something fishy about it."

"The Third Raikage couldn't defeat me, but he didn't bring any Kage-level shinobi to help him."

"Even the Eight-Tails, which has cooperated with Raikage A in previous generations, has not appeared."

"It is clear that their ambitions are not small."

Standing atop a tree as tall as Rayquaza, Uchiha Rinpoche analyzed, "As far as I know, the seals of other ninja villages are not as perfect as ours."

"It could easily leak the tailed beast's chakra, causing chaos among the tailed beasts."

"Perhaps for this reason, they didn't bring a Jinchūriki."

Yuuki smiled proudly, hands on his hips: "Then how dare he show his face in front of me again?"

"It's been two and a half years. If he doesn't bring me any surprises, I'll be tempted to kill him."

A roaring sound arose, the smoke dissipated, and the ground was riddled with potholes.

Yuuki stared at the Cloud Village and had to admit that, in terms of organization, tactical coordination, and unit division, the Cloud Village was exceptional.

The ninja forces of Kumogakure are far more professional than those of Konoha.

After all, the strength and number of ninjas can only be gradually eroded over time.

The best way to catch up with Konoha's fighting strength more quickly is to work hard in other areas.

Unfortunately, the Cloud Village encountered a more professional Zergling army.

Countless flames surged towards the Cloud Hidden Army.

The leaping insects, fearless of death, charged forward amidst thunder and flames to fight the Cloud Ninjas.

One or two springtails may not be very strong in combat.

However, with perfect teamwork, the well-organized jumping insects immediately brought high intensity to the Cloud Ninja.

Under the pressure from the Uchiha, the Cloud Ninja were forced into a series of defeats.

This is not a difference between Konoha and Kumogakure, nor is it because the Kumogakure ninja are weak.

This is the difference between quantitative elite training and quantitative standardized production!

A Cloud Ninja grows up in six years, undergoes three to six years of training at the Ninja Academy, and one to two years of training to lead a team of ninjas.

Thus, a qualified cannon fodder was born.

Upon entering the battlefield, I was instantly sent to the Pure Land by several leaping insects that had been incubated for several hours and whose raw materials were worth tens of thousands of taels... Human Emperor Banner (Soul-Stealing Banner).

It must be said that those who learn the inside story will inevitably feel layers of despair, even to the point of questioning the meaning of life.

In just a few battles, hundreds of Cloud Ninja were killed.

The price Konoha paid was only a few thousand jumping insects and a few Uchiha who twisted their ankles while rushing into the battlefield.

"Something's definitely not right. Are the Cloud Ninja sending people to their deaths?" Uchiha Osamu's expression changed slightly. "Could they be using the battlefield to eliminate dissidents?"

That shouldn't be done.

All the 'dissidents' in Kumogakure were eliminated twenty years ago during the Gold and Silver Horns rebellion.

"Charge!"

After the springtails gained complete control, Yuuki, expressionless, led the police department to press forward.

The Cloud Hidden's performance was indeed too weak.

Aside from the surprise attack on the Land of Whirlpools, the Cloud Ninjas have hardly caused any wars, and even in that surprise attack, their losses were not significant.

The Cloud Ninja's combat strength on this battlefield is far too weak.

According to the principle of conservation of 'military strength'.

The fact that the ninja force here is weak means that the ninja force elsewhere is strong.

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

Rayquaza carried Yuuki to a high place, and Yuuki quickly formed hand seals.

A waterfall of flames cascaded down, hurtling towards the Cloud Ninja forces!

Below, only the front-line ninja of the Cloud Ninja Force released an Earth Wall in an attempt to block the Great Fire Annihilation.

Even the earthen wall they released was very stiff and did not bend to protect the Cloud Ninja, unlike the ninjutsu released by Jonin.

"Combined Ninja Technique! Five Elements Insect Domain Seal!"

The swarms of insects covering the sky turned day into night!

A purplish-black barrier completely sealed off the battlefield.

"rush!"

Tens of thousands of insects charged down.

The number appears to be enormous. If led by a Kage-level or Jonin, several thousand ninjas could definitely stop or even annihilate this attack.

Yuuki stared at the Third Raikage's location and rushed over at top speed.

"Leaf Whirlwind!"

The Third Raikage unleashed a sudden burst of lightning, barely managing to dodge it.

After one exchange, Yuuki smiled and said, "Interesting. A brand new clone technique developed based on Lightning Release Armor?"

“Uchiha Yuuki.” A hint of apprehension flashed in the Third Raikage’s eyes: “Good eye. You recognized him at a glance.”

The number of Cloud Ninja troops rapidly decreased after the insect swarm attack.

They didn't die in battle, they simply disappeared.

Yuuki's interest deepened: "I like surprises, a clone technique that mimics the original body and deceives the senses of ninjas."

"I just don't know how difficult it is to learn?"

Rayquaza casually sealed off a 'clone ninja'.

Yuuki spun the kaleidoscope around and glanced at it a few times.

"It seems the learning is very difficult. Most of the clones come from you and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."

"No wonder their offensive was so weak and the battle lasted so short!"

The Third Raikage sighed, "Why? You're not a genius from my Hidden Cloud Village."

Superhuman strength punch!

Yuuki ended the Third Raikage's clone with a single punch.

All the other clones disguised as Cloud Ninjas vanished.

Only a few hundred people survived the incident.

The Cloud Ninja only mobilized less than two thousand men.

Most of them are older and have poor combat capabilities.

"They've set up an empty city ploy." Yuuki looked towards the Land of Grass: "Now, the pressure is on Sakumo Hatake?"

"They didn't include this?" Yuuki pulled out a specially made kunai, the hilt of which was covered with special incantations.

Perhaps they added the variable of Flying Thunder God, but they had no way to deal with it?
