Konoha: Make the Uchiha Great Again

Chapter 269 Madman
Konoha declared war, and this news spread throughout the entire ninja world almost that year.

The ninja world has been peaceful for three years, although such peace is meaningless to many small countries because they are still living in dire straits.

After all, they are not the Kingdom of Grass and the Kingdom of Soup. Of course, there are many of them who don't want to be a member of the Kingdom of Grass and the Kingdom of Soup at all.

Even though they basically have no power anymore, as their power has been stripped away one by one by the big ninja villages neighboring them, they only have control over their own little piece of land.

But even if it is only that one acre and three mu of land, it is a manifestation of power for them, and they are really unwilling to give up this little control in their hands.

In particular, after Konoha takes over those places, it will directly strip everyone of their power and then redistribute them according to Konoha's way.

They simply don't have any chance or luck at all. Even for those who disobey, the fate is obvious, that is, Konoha will directly send them out of the biosphere!
Konoha has never concealed this fact. Countless people have been sent away from the Land of Grass and the Land of Hot Spring. This is definitely something that terrifies them.

But facing Konoha, they really have no way to deal with it, especially the small countries controlled by the Sand Village, they are even more worried.

But no matter how much they worry, there will be no practical effect, because the Sand Village brought this upon itself, and whatever Konoha does is justified.

Now they can only pray that the Sand Village has prepared a response mechanism, otherwise they will really have to accompany the Sand Village to its grave.

The Sand Village was also in chaos at this time. They had received the information in advance from spies stationed in Konoha, so they still had room to prepare and maneuver.

They contacted Konoha almost immediately and told Konoha that all these actions were the work of the Fourth Kazekage Rasa himself, and hoped that Konoha would forgive them.

They were also willing to compensate Konoha and continue to maintain an alliance with Konoha.

During the Third Ninja World War, Konoha chose to forgive them, and now they hope that this situation can continue.

But what surprised them greatly, but not particularly unexpected, was that Konoha simply ignored them, and the declaration of war was still announced throughout the ninja world!
At this moment, all of them knew that they no longer had any room for maneuver, and the only choice they could make now was to fight.

But how to fight this?
Konoha's soldiers are strong and their morale is high, and their war plan is well-founded. No one can say that Konoha's choice is wrong.

On the other hand, their elite troops were completely wiped out in Konoha, and only the garrison troops were left.

Although the garrison troops have a large number of people, their overall strength is really just that, and their high-end combat capabilities are almost wiped out due to various reasons.

The worst thing is that according to intelligence, their war deterrent weapon, One-Tail, is probably in Konoha's hands now.

Konoha, which already controlled the strongest tailed beast, the Nine-Tails, now has the One-Tails in its hands. This is definitely bad news for them, the Sand Village.

"How will Iwagakure and Kumogakure respond now?"

Inside the Kazekage building, Chiyo asked with some tiredness. There was no Kage in the Sand Village now, and no one else had the ability to do so.

Under such circumstances, the task of commanding and coordinating the entire Sunagakure defense fell on the shoulders of the old man Chiyo.

“They didn’t give any response.”

Ebizo sighed helplessly, and then gave an answer that Chiyo was most reluctant to hear.

"They said we had it all to ourselves, but it was inappropriate for Konoha to have two tailed beasts, so they supported them but didn't help us."

Giving any support other than aid is not the same as giving nothing at all?
"Are they crazy?"

Chiyo pounded the table hard and asked in disbelief.

"Konoha is so powerful now, and they have already annexed the Grass Country and the Hot Spring Country, and they have already taken action against the Hot Spring Country and the Tea Country.

If they are allowed to conquer the River Country, who in the ninja world can resist Konoha?

Do they want to watch Konoha dominate the world? Don't they know that only by uniting to fight against Konoha now can they truly curb Konoha?

It’s okay that the young man Killer Bee went crazy, but why did Ohnoki go crazy too?

Konoha is annexing small countries now, and in the future it may annex large countries. Who can stop Konoha then?"

Chiyo was incredibly angry now, but no matter how angry she was, facing that cold rejection she was just helpless and furious.

After a long time, Chiyo slumped in the chair, she looked a little sad.

Ebizo stood silently beside her. This matter had reached a point where no one could end it, and they were the creators of this matter.

It was they who provoked Konoha, it was they who provoked Konoha, and it was they who pushed everything to an irreversible point.

Now it is really difficult for them to end the situation, and they really don’t know how to end it. They must think of a solution carefully.

"Notify all troops in the River Kingdom to enter the Wind Kingdom."

After a long while, Chiyo spoke helplessly.

“Konoha declared war on us, for revenge and profit.

If they want the River Kingdom we will give it to them, but if they want to enter the Wind Kingdom we must break their hands!

We must use actions to tell them where my bottom line is, and we must let them know what they can and cannot do.

That's all, you can inform them."

After saying this, Chiyo seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. She sat there in a daze without saying a word, while Ebizo sighed deeply, then turned and left.

The issuance of this order meant that the Sand Village completely lost the fertile land of the River Kingdom and lost half of the mission share of the River Kingdom.

Not only that, the River Kingdom lost the passage to enter the Fire Kingdom, and lost an excellent transportation hub.

Now, the Sand Village will be at the bottom of the five major countries.

Although they were at the bottom before, with the River Kingdom they can at least continue to recover and find ways to improve.

Now that they have lost this place and their most important support, they have almost nothing.

All they had left was the vast desert and endless sorrow.
They can only watch it happen, and they can't change it at all.
There was grief in the Sand Village, but the scene in the Konoha Village was quite different.

The statistics of Konoha's casualties have long been out. Although Konoha did suffer some losses, the losses were not particularly large.

You have to know that this is a village with a population of more than 100,000 or 200,000 people, and they were attacked by surprise.

The reason why Konoha's losses were reduced to such an extent was that the Guard Department played a huge role in it.

It can be said that without the Guard Department, even if the Konoha high-level officials knew that the Sand Village was planning a surprise attack, they would never be able to reduce the number of casualties to such a level.

The current situation is very good. Although not everyone can be safe, war will never be without casualties.

At this point, all of Konoha's top leaders were mentally prepared.

Therefore, after the results came out, Konoha immediately announced all the various pensions and subsidy plans.

Those injured will also receive free rescue and treatment. It can be said that Konoha has made all preparations.

They will not let the injured become a burden, nor will they leave the sacrificed and their families helpless.

Jiraiya also suggested that after the war with the Sand Village, Konoha should hold a grand funeral for the entire village.

Such things naturally received the support of everyone. After all, they all sacrificed and were injured for Konoha.

In addition to this aspect, Konoha also began a mobilization plan.

Although Konoha did not carry out a full mobilization, the Konoha ninjas who were holding back their anger were particularly enthusiastic.

It took only two days for them to complete the mobilization and assembly, and the number of people participating in the Sand Village War this time was set at 8,000.

These eight thousand people include those mobilized from within Konoha and border defense forces.

Eight thousand is not a small number. The total number of ninjas in Konoha is only tens of thousands. After all, training ninjas is very difficult.

In addition, Konoha needs to deploy troops for defense in various places, and many of Konoha's ninjas are civilian personnel and Genin in school.

Therefore, the fact that 8,000 people were mobilized at one time can definitely be said to be a sign of Konoha's sincerity.

"The war is about to begin again."

It was a dim night as Yuhara and Kotonoha strolled along the streets of Konoha. After dealing with various things throughout the day, they could finally go home.

Looking at Konoha which had entered a state of alert, Kotonoha couldn't help but sigh slightly.

However, her voice was very small and her eyes were always lowered. It was obvious that she was still a little uncomfortable being with Yuhara at this moment.

This situation has been going on for some time. Strictly speaking, she is not that kind of person, but when the relationship deteriorates, she really can't bear it.

"Yes, the war is coming again, but there won't be any problems with this kind of war."

Yuhara smiled, then reached out and held Kotonoha's hand.

Kotonoha did not resist. She just glanced at Yuhara and lowered her head and continued to walk forward.

"By the way, I had planned to visit your house, but this unexpected situation happened. I'm sorry."

"Some things really can't be helped."

When Kotonoha heard what Yuhara said, she didn't know how to respond for a moment. In the end, she could only give this answer.

Is she going to say that she is also sorry? This must be a joke.

As they walked, Yuhara suddenly frowned slightly. Someone was waiting for them ahead.

Or rather, this person was actually just waiting for him.

This made Yuhara a little curious. He didn't understand why this person was looking for him, because strictly speaking they had no intersection.

If we really talk about the relationship between them, then the hatred between them must be greater than anything else.

Besides, why is this person still in Konoha, why hasn't he left yet?

Yuhara didn't figure out these questions, but no matter what, this person came to him, and Yuhara couldn't pretend that he didn't see anything.

Thinking of this, Yuhara suddenly smiled and turned to look at Kotonoha, then he slowly spoke.

“Actually, you don’t have to be like this.

Maybe you will be shy, or maybe you will feel distressed by the change in our relationship.

But I want to tell you that I have always liked the lazy, outspoken and daring Kotonoha who treats me as a friend.

You look quite different from the Kotonoha in my memory, and this makes me very distressed.

I don't know if your family said anything to you, or if you felt you had to do something yourself.

But I tell you no, you don’t need to change anything, just be yourself, that’s the best.”

Yuhara has always been aware of the changes in Kotonoha. Although such changes are indeed quite novel, Yuhara really can't say whether it is good or not.

And for him, the Kotonoha he had known since childhood really disappeared because of the change in their relationship, and that was the biggest regret.

Everyone has his or her own unique soul. Yuhara has always agreed with this statement. He doesn't want Kotonoha to change so much that he can't recognize her anymore.

After saying this, Yuhara didn't wait for Kotonoha to respond. He gently pinched Kotonoha's face, and then disappeared on the spot with a teleportation technique.

And Ye stood there in a daze for a long time, and finally she shook her head with a helpless look.

"You're still as much of an asshole as ever, Hanehara."

Yuhara had no idea what changes had taken place in Kotonoha, because he had already left the place and came to a big tree not far away.

His chakra clearly sensed that the guy was waiting for him here, and he was moving as he moved.

This approach is clear and straightforward, and Yuhara also adheres to the principle of asking for clarification if he is unclear. He does not believe that this guy will do something that no one objects to.

"Come out, you've been following me for so long, I think you must have something to say, right?"

Yuhara spoke calmly. He did not try to condense chakra because he did not think that a battle would break out at all.

As long as there is nothing wrong with his brain, this guy will never cause trouble for me, especially at this critical juncture.

"Your Excellency Yuhara's sensitivity is truly incredible, and your Excellency Yuhara's strength is also astonishing."

After Yuyuan finished speaking, a voice came from behind the desk, followed by a short figure walking out from the shadows.

"Please forgive me, Lord Yuhara, for my rude behavior. I really hope to have a good chat with you." "Oh?"

Yuhara raised his eyebrows, then he nodded slightly.

"Then I will respectfully obey your orders. Do you know what the Third Tsuchikage has to say?"

In fact, Yuhara never expected that the person who was following him secretly would be this guy named Oonoki.

Ohnoki looked at the young man in front of him with deep emotion, the young man who had shocked him three years ago.

He no longer dared to guess how much this young man had grown to, because this was an area that he could not reach at all.

Such power is unimaginable, such power is awe-inspiring, he can only comfort himself by saying "Uchiha is indeed the favorite of God".

Because he saw the shadow of Uchiha Madara in Yuhara, even an existence that surpassed Uchiha Madara!
Such a person made it impossible for him to get out of the shadow of Uchiha Madara, and even the shadow of Uchiha Madara in his heart had turned into Yuhara.

Uchiha Madara only threatened him back then, but Yuhara actually fought him in real life, defeated him, and snatched the Land of Grass from him.

Moreover, Yuhara is still growing and transforming towards a higher level. Such a person makes him more shocked and frightened than Uchiha Madara did back then.

In fact, if possible, he really didn't want to meet someone like Yuhara alone.

But with the One-Tail falling into Konoha's hands, and Konoha having declared war on Sunagakure, it is conceivable that the River Country will fall into Konoha's hands.

No one could imagine how powerful Konoha was, at least Ohnoki really didn't want to think about it.

But as the Kage of the Iwagakure Village, he had to do something, and he really didn't think that Konoha's ambition was just to become a river country.

He really couldn't help but guess that Konoha might have already set its sights on the Wind Kingdom!
"Mr. Hahara, I'm disturbing you this time because I want to know what Konoha wants."

Oonoki sighed, then spoke firmly.

"Konoha is already strong enough, and now Konoha has taken over the Land of Waves, and has also begun to attack the Land of Waves and the Land of Whirlpools.

This time after conquering the River Kingdom, Konoha has reached its peak in terms of mission share, personnel reserves, resource abundance, access to the sea, etc.

Mr. Yuhara, how do you think other villages will view Konoha, which is so powerful?
Moreover, I'm afraid you won't return the One-Tail to the Sand Village. So, you who have mastered the One-Tail and the Nine-Tail have already reached the limit in terms of hard power.

Furthermore, Konoha also has an invincible existence like you, as well as Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Fugaku, the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade and other strong people.

Aren't you afraid that this will cause unrest among everyone in the Ninja World, and cause the Third Ninja World War to happen again?"

During the Third Ninja World War, Konoha single-handedly blocked the siege and blockade of the four major ninja villages, which can be said to be a heroic feat.

Of course, Konoha's victory that time was also very lucky, because there was no trust between the major villages at all.

While they were attacking Konoha, they also had their own little thoughts in private.

This also led to no cooperation between them, and even the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Rock Village directly confronted each other, which completely saved Konoha from the predicament.

But after hearing what Ōnoki said, Yuhara couldn't help but look at Ōnoki with a playful expression, while Ōnoki looked at Yuhara with a serious expression.

After a long while, Yuhara finally sighed and said, "Sir Tsuchikage, things are different now. Even if Konoha is besieged again, what does it matter?"

Having said this, Yuhara paused slightly, and then he continued meaningfully.

“You couldn’t unite back then, can you now?
Konoha didn't have me back then, but can you really stop me now?

And Konoha's background is not what you can imagine. Do you remember the man who sealed the One-Tail? Don't you think that guy looks familiar?"

"The person who sealed One Tail?"

Oonoki's face looked a little ugly at this time, but he still tried hard to remain restrained and calm.

He carefully recalled what happened after the One-Tail appeared. In his memory, the One-Tail was immediately controlled and sealed again just after it appeared.

This monster didn't even have time to pose any threat to Konoha. This shows how strong Konoha is.

But in fact, Ōnoki had no idea who killed the first tail.

The distance was too far, and he couldn't possibly observe whether she was rolling her eyes or something like that. There were many things he couldn't really observe.

But now when he recalled it, he seemed to find that guy somewhat familiar. As for why he looked familiar, he had not figured out yet. Perhaps he was a powerful ninja from Konoha.

However, Ohnoki would never think that this matter would be that simple. After all, since it was brought out alone by Yuhara, no matter how one thinks about it, it might not be simple.

"I don't know how long Lord Tsuchikage has been in Konoha. If it's long enough, you will know who that person is, and you will also know what the background I'm talking about is."

Yuhara's expression became more and more playful. He did not tell Ohnoki the truth. After all, some things are better to explore by oneself.

"As for the purpose of our Konoha that you mentioned, it is actually very clear. You may have asked others this question, but they are unwilling to give you an answer.

Actually, I am the same, but the difference between me and them is that they don’t want to say anything, but I am willing to tell you something interesting.

Mr. Tsuchikage, what do you think of the current ninja world?"

"The current ninja world?"

When Oonoki heard this question, he couldn't help but frown. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

The current ninja world seems peaceful, but he is very clear about the undercurrents surging beneath this peace.

Peace is just an appearance. Once the needs of each village for development cannot be met, the war will inevitably reignite.

Isn’t the Sand Village the best example?
"Can't you say it? Actually, you and I both know it, right?"

Hahara couldn't help but chuckle as he saw Ohnoki's hesitation.

"There is no peace in the ninja world. Throughout history, ninjas have been fighting for their own interests.

Now, with the construction of the village, the ninjas began to fight continuously for the benefit of the village.

The village needs to develop, but the resource allocation in the ninja world has not been broken. In this situation, the only way to truly develop is to find ways to plunder other people's resources and land.

The Land of Rain during World War II, the Hidden Sand Village during World War III, and you and the Hidden Cloud Village, which one of them did not have such an idea?
Peace is the most unattainable thing for the ninja world, but it is also what we have been pursuing."

Having said this, Yuhara paused slightly, his eyes fixed on Oonoki, and then spoke softly.

"In fact, I have always hated Senju Hashirama for letting you bastards survive and build villages one after another.

But things have already happened, and there is no way for me to get rid of them all. After all, they have already formed a concept.

However, my desire for peace has never stopped. I have been thinking about how to bring peace to the ninja world and how to truly eliminate war.

So I made some attempts, some fun ones that are open to all of you.

As for the results, haven't all of you seen and touched them?"

Yuhara's voice was not loud, and his words were spoken very calmly, but at this moment in Oonoki's ears these words were like thunder!

To be honest, no one really thinks or thinks about what Yuhara did as an attempt at peace.

But Oonoki instantly guessed what Yuhara meant. The Land of Hot Springs and the Land of Grass were his works!
At this moment, these two countries have been completely integrated into the system of the Fire Nation and have completely accepted Konoha's entry and integration.

These two places completely belong to the Land of Fire and completely belong to Konoha!
In this integration, the two places have completely formed a peaceful situation and a stable situation.

This is something none of them has ever done, and this is what they all aspire to be able to do.

But now that Yuhara said this, it can be said that he completely acknowledged his ambition, and it can be said that he completely confirmed Ohnoki's inner anxiety.

He has always been guessing what Konoha is thinking and has always been trying to determine to what extent Konoha will go. Now he has the answer.

This answer made him break out in cold sweats, because it was absolutely an extremely terrifying answer!
"Are you crazy?"

Ohnoki looked at Yuhara in disbelief. At this moment he seemed to have returned to decades ago when he faced Uchiha Madara.

"You know whether you are crazy or not, and I didn't say anything."

Yuhara shook his head calmly, then he looked at Oonoki and smiled.

“But now I am only causing trouble for some small countries. If I want to prove my idea, I must start from some places where the resistance may be stronger.

Some places have few resources, harsh environment and climate, and great geographical and transportation problems.

But those places are also the best places to prove my ideas. It’s good to be a little bit bad. The complementary resources lead to common development. Isn’t this a good thing? "

"How much bloodshed do you want to cause before you are satisfied?"

Ohnoki said this through gritted teeth, his body already beginning to tremble.

"I don't want bloodshed, but sometimes it has to happen."

Yuhara shook his head, he sighed and spoke softly.

"We are actually the same people, born in the ninja world, speaking the same words and having the same perceptions.

However, Hashirama Senju's indulgence allowed ambitious people to establish their own territories, and in order to develop, these ambitious people caused wars in the ninja world.

I just hold a simple ideal of peace and I put it into practice.

As for the bloodshed, it is not my fault. If anyone should be blamed, blame those ambitious people who do not want peace to come and are unwilling to give up the power in their hands.

It was them who caused the blood of their own people to flow like a river."

While Konoha and the Sand Village were preparing for war with each other, Uchiha Madara had quietly arrived at a dense forest in an uninhabited area within the Land of Fire.

Looking at the dense trees and rubble in front of him, Uchiha Madara sighed in his heart, then he slowly walked forward.

As he continued to go deeper, the sunlight in this place became less and less. The dense forest and gravel blocked the sunlight, and the cold air became heavier.

But Uchiha Madara didn't care at all. He continued to walk forward. He only stopped when he reached the deepest part of the dense forest.

"Art fire escape ho fireball."

Uchiha Madara formed seals with his hands, and the next moment a huge fireball flew into the air.

The fireball instantly burned all the spider webs around it, and also ignited the torches hanging on the trees. Strangely, the fireball did not burn the trees at all!

In the light of the fire, everything in the depths of the dense forest appeared exceptionally clear, and at first glance it turned out to be a cemetery.

Countless stone tablets are erected here, and names are carved on these stone tablets. It is obvious that this is the earliest ancestral tomb of the Uchiha clan!

Uchiha Madara walked slowly forward to a stone tablet. He reached out and gently stroked the stone tablet. The owner of this stone tablet was Uchiha Izuna.

"Izuna, long time no see"

Uchiha Madara murmured softly, and then he fell completely silent.

He stood there quietly without moving, silently looking at everything in front of him and fell into endless contemplation.

He himself didn't know how long it had been since he last came here. The last time he came here was probably when he left Konoha.

And after that, he was a ghost floating above the ninja world, dominating everything, changing everything, and planning everything.

And today he came here again, which also means that he has changed.

After a long time, Uchiha Madara came back to his senses. He gently stroked the stone tablet again and then stepped back.

“Izuna, I don’t know if we can ever meet again, but now I’ve been affected and I don’t know if what I’m doing is right.

But in this world, there is a young man who misses me and does what you desire most. He makes the family continue to prosper and he changes everything in the family.

Although I think his words are full of water, he is really like me, a person who has fulfilled your dream and also fulfilled my dream back then.

So I decided to give it a try, and I decided to observe carefully, hoping that I would see something different this time.”

After saying this, Uchiha Madara turned and walked towards a distance.

This is the ancestral tomb of the Uchiha clan, and most of the valuable documents of the Uchiha clan over thousands of years are buried here.

This is what Uchiha Madara took away when he left Konoha. Since he wants to know more about it, he must investigate it thoroughly.

He wanted to see what Yuhara was planning.
