Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swordsmen Begins from the Hidden Cloud Village.

Chapter 162 Fugaku's Strength

Not to mention Tamura Hao's research and training, the top leaders of the Konoha Ninja Army on the opposite front gathered together to discuss.

They also received news that the son of the Raikage had come to the front line to take over the ninja army. The three battlefields of Iwagakure Village, Sand Village, and Mist Village also received reinforcements. The war escalated a lot and casualties increased greatly.

I think they can't be far away.

"According to the intelligence we received, there are six people coming from the Hidden Cloud Village this time. They are the son of the Raikage, Yagetsu Ai, Fukai, Tamura Hao, Uchiha Hikaru, Uzumaki Kushina and Uzumaki Vanilla. The latter four also participated in the Chunin Exam held by the village."

Uchiha Zhili, who was in charge of intelligence work, said this while distributing the transcribed information to everyone present.

Everyone frowned as they looked at the information they had obtained.

"Fugaku, does the clan leader have any information about this Uchiha Hikaru?"

Uchiha Mingjing, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at Uchiha Fugaku. He had heard of this Uchiha Guang, and it seemed that his identity was strange, but he was not sure about the details.

But one thing is certain, the other party is from the Uchiha clan, and the pair of freely controllable Sharingan cannot deceive anyone.

Are they members of the same clan who are now stranded outside?

Everyone looked at Uchiha Fugaku. They were also quite curious about Uchiha Hikaru.

Uchiha Fugaku stood up without further delay and began to explain: "That Uchiha Hikaru was a figure from the Warring States Period. Not only did he awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan, but his family also transplanted a pair of Mangekyō pupils into his eyes, which became the ultimate weapon of his family.

In the end, he seemed to be sealed by the strong men of the Senju family and the Sarutobi family, and somehow he has survived to the present day.

The Third Raikage suddenly appeared in the heart of the Fire Country, probably because of her.

Currently, they are in a hostile relationship with us Uchiha."

"Two pairs of kaleidoscope pupil techniques."

Everyone's expressions became solemn, especially Uchiha Mingjing and his three companions.

They all have Kaleidoscopes and are well aware of their power, not to mention that the other person has four Kaleidoscope pupil techniques, so his strength must be even stronger.

"Is there any specific information about pupil techniques?"

Uchiha Mingjing asked again, if he knew the effect of the eye technique, it would undoubtedly be much easier to deal with.

"There is no record of her own eye technique, but the transplanted eye techniques are Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi."

Uchiha Fugaku answered truthfully, this was really all he knew.

The main reason is that too much time has passed and the records at that time were not detailed. Even in the family books they only found a few words.

"Two very troublesome eye techniques."

Everyone's faces darkened again. One was the strongest offensive illusion, one was the strongest fire, plus two unknown eye techniques and an unknown stage of Susanoo.

It's a completely unsolvable existence.

"This Tamura Hao is the brat who seduced your fiancée, right? I heard he performed very well in the Chunin Exam?"

Uchiha Naka suddenly said this with a playful smile on his face.

After these words were spoken, the expressions of the people present were full of joking.

They all heard about that incident. That Tamura Hao lived in the clan leader's house for a month, and then abducted the clan leader's daughter, Uchiha Fugaku's fiancée.

Only Uchiha Mingjing and Uchiha Zhili frowned. They didn't like this kind of internal strife, especially when there were powerful enemies outside.

"Naka, this is the front line. If you are bored, you can go to the Cloud Ninja on the opposite side."

Uchiha Mingjing scolded, this guy is a troublemaker.

Uchiha Naka smiled and said nothing more.

He recognized Uchiha Mingjing's strength, and even his eye technique had some restraint on himself. He had no way to go against Uchiha Mingjing.

However, the Fugaku who was valued by the clan leader under his guidance was not a problem.

You want to be the patriarch, but you take a piss and look in the mirror.

But the next moment, he was angered by Uchiha Fugaku's words.

"He is very strong. He should be able to kill someone like you."

Uchiha Fugaku looked at Uchiha Naka coldly, as if he were looking at a dead person.

This is the damned person!

"What did you say?"

He stood up suddenly, and his Mangekyo opened automatically. Uchiha Naka's face was very cold, and he was ready to fight immediately.

Uchiha Fugaku did not stand up, but burst out with powerful chakra to compete with Uchiha Naka, and even suppressed his chakra.

"Didn't you hear clearly? Let me say it again."

"He can kill people like you with a knife."

His expression was still indifferent, but with a sense of seriousness, as if he was stating a fact, and this was indeed the fact.

During the Chunin Exams, Tamura Hao was able to unleash the combat power of a Kage. Now that his chakra has reached the Kage level, the power he can unleash must be even stronger.

Although Uchiha Naka possesses the Mangekyō, it cannot be used as a regular power, and he will only die against Tamura Hao.

Everyone present was shocked by the chakra burst out by Uchiha Fugaku. That chakra was not only extremely powerful but also of high quality, which made them feel depressed.

Even Uchiha Naka was shocked. He really didn't expect the other party's chakra to reach this level.

"Fugaku, you also broke through?"

Uchiha Mingjing said with surprise, but with some worry in his heart.

Fugaku is a very ambitious man. His strength has broken through and his chakra is so huge, which may not be a good thing for Uchiha and the village.

Uchiha Zhili also looked over in confusion, not understanding how Uchiha Fugaku could increase his chakra to such a level, more than both his own and Ming Jing's.

And its chakra is a bit weird. Has it also awakened the Mangekyō?

“It’s already broken through.”

Uchiha Fugaku simply said, "Take back the chakra," without further explanation.

"Naka."

Uchiha Jiri signaled to Uchiha Naka that this was not the place for a commotion.

"Humph!"

Uchiha Naka's face was gloomy, and he finally snorted and sat down.

"Fugaku, you have come into contact with that Tamura Hao, what do you think of him?"

Seeing that the conflict had subsided, Uchiha Mingjing continued the previous topic and paid more attention to Tamura Hao.

Recalling his experience with the young man, Uchiha Fugaku said with emotion: "He is a genius, a genius that surpasses everyone I know, even the Shodaime cannot compare to him in talent.

I had sparred with him when we were in the village. I am not as good as him in swordsmanship and physical skills, but he is immune to illusions, possesses the power of fairy arts, and has an explosive secret technique similar to the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu. He is also proficient in lightning-style ninjutsu and physical skills. His overall combat power has surpassed the level of a senior ninja.

After such a long time, he must have become stronger. I wouldn't have much confidence even if I faced him.

In addition, his mental foresight is also top-notch. He should be the successor of the Raikage assistant trained by the Hidden Cloud Village, and the future new generation of Raikage assistant."

Uchiha Fugaku gave a very high evaluation, even a little fearful.

If he didn't unleash the power of the Seven-Tailed Fox, he might not be able to defeat the young man.

Everyone instinctively didn't believe it. It was too unbelievable and completely overturned their cognition.

But with Uchiha Fugaku's recent outburst, they did not refute it.

Not to mention that the Assistant Raikage was also involved. They were all a little scared of the Assistant Raikage because his battle record was too scary.

First, he led the Whirlpool Kingdom War, took down half of the Uzumaki Family and all the Uzumaki inheritance at a very small cost, and severely damaged Danzo Shimura and his elite troops.

They even speculated that the complete annihilation of the Sand Village and the Iwagakure Village at the hands of the Uzushiogakure Village might have been the result of that person's calculations.

Then came the coup d'état in the Hidden Mist Village. At the most critical moment, the man took down the descendants and foundation of several major ninja clans in the Hidden Mist Village, and formed an alliance with the Hidden Mist Village. Later, he led the alliance with the Hidden Sand Village and the Hidden Rock Village, forming a four-village alliance to jointly target Konoha.

Then came the incident in their village, where the Hokage Building was destroyed.

Afterwards, he obtained the big tree from Takigakure Village and built an absolute defense for Kumogakure Village.

The Hidden Cloud Village has been quite active in recent years and is constantly growing and developing.

These are all the achievements of the assistant Raikage who has been in office for only a few years. No wonder his bounty is at the top of the underground gold exchange, higher than that of the Kages of the five major ninja villages.

The person you value must be no simple person.

"I can't believe that's a twelve-year-old... no, he should be thirteen years old now."

Uchiha Mingjing sighed. Although he also found it unbelievable, he did not think that Uchiha Fugaku would lie about this matter.

In other words, he was truly a young genius, a young genius who transcended cognition and broke the conventions.

At least when he was thirteen years old, he was still only a Jonin, and he finally broke through with the help of the awakening of the Mangekyō.

"He is strong in physical and sword techniques, immune to illusions, and good at lightning-style ninjutsu. He also has explosive secret techniques and fairy techniques. He is really hard to deal with."

Uchiha Zhili also felt it was difficult. After counting the means he had, he was afraid that only the forbidden technique he had just created could restrain the opponent. He just didn't know how strong the opponent's immunity to illusions was, and whether the illusions of the kaleidoscope level could suppress it. Otherwise, he could only use that forbidden technique.

"He has lived in the clan leader's house for such a long time, he must have some ulterior motive. Fugaku, would you mind telling me?"

After thinking for a while, Uchiha Mingjing talked about a doubt in his mind.

The Third Hokage had sent him a message before. Although it was not written explicitly, it vaguely pointed out that the clan leader had some kind of deal with the Hidden Cloud Village.

It must have been difficult for Mikoto to leave with him.

He needed to know what kind of deal the two parties had made. Although it was not a good idea to ask so directly, it would be more troublesome if he continued to cover it up.

Especially now that the Raikage's son has arrived at the front line and the real war is about to begin, he has no time to test Uchiha Fugaku.

Everyone looked at Uchiha Fugaku again, equally curious about this.

"It's not inconvenient. He traded a portion of his immortal power for the clan leader's eyes."

Uchiha Fugaku talked about a deal that had happened in the past. He knew that all parties were suspicious about this, and if he didn't reveal something, those people and those present would not feel at ease.

"The power of magic!"

"The Patriarch traded eyes!"

Everyone was shocked. Both the power of immortal arts and the clan leader's Mangekyō Sharingan were not simple.

They are very familiar with Mangekyo, and the power of fairy arts is also the top power. The first generation even relied on fairy arts to defeat that person.

Strictly speaking, neither party loses money in this transaction, and the impact on them is greater.

The clan leader's strength must have been greatly reduced after losing his Mangekyō. At his age, he certainly could not practice immortal arts. It is very likely that he was exchanged for Uchiha Fugaku.

No wonder Uchiha Fugaku had a sudden breakthrough. His chakra was so huge. He must have obtained the power of fairy technique.

This made everyone envious and jealous, but Uchiha Naka and Uchiha Baru were thinking about the clan leader's affairs.

Since the old patriarch's strength has declined, he will certainly be unable to lead the family forward, and they will take this opportunity to fight for it.

Noticing the envious, jealous and even greedy looks in everyone's eyes, Uchiha Fugaku sneered secretly and then said indifferently.

"I have another mission to come to the front line. It was given to me by the clan leader. The one with the highest merit in this war can become the clan leader."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked again. Uchiha Naka and Uchiha Baru both excitedly displayed their Mangekyō. Several others were also surprised and greedy, and their minds became active.

Looking at the reactions of several people, Uchiha Mingjing, who was sitting in the main seat, opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

This will help boost everyone's morale, and the next war will be easier to fight.

Uchiha Zhili frowned slightly, feeling worried.

Boosting morale is a good thing, but we are afraid that some people will be over-motivated and do impulsive things.

"Let's move on to the next topic - Tailed Beast Jinchuriki."

After a while, when everyone's emotions had calmed down, Uchiha Mingjing brought up the next topic.

“The Hidden Cloud Village has obtained the complete Whirlpool Sealing Technique, which can definitely perfectly seal the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails. The Eight-Tails is the second-most powerful tailed beast after the Nine-Tails.

If the Hidden Cloud Village takes this Ninja World War seriously, there is a high probability that the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki will be dispatched.

Once the Tailed Beast Ball is launched, it will be difficult for us to hold our line."

Uchiha Mingjing was most worried about this because the explosion of the Tailed Beast Ball was too powerful, it could destroy the world.

Even if you have a Mangekyō, you may not be able to withstand it. Although the Mangekyō can suppress the tailed beasts and even control them, a single tailed beast and a tailed beast jinchūriki are different concepts.

In addition, they can completely release the Tailed Beast Ball remotely. If they release it while hiding among the Kumogakure Ninja Army, it will be useless even if they have the Mangekyō.

To release the illusion, you have to be at least a certain distance away, the closer the better.

"The latest intelligence we have received is that two tailed beast Jinchuriki have appeared on the eastern battlefield, and the Four-tailed Jinchuriki of the Hidden Rock Village has also appeared on the battlefield of the Land of Grass."

Uchiha Zhili added that it was information he had obtained not long ago that the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki was about to enter the battlefield.

These words made everyone fall silent. Even the arrogant Uchiha Naka couldn't say anything, and he didn't have the confidence to deal with the Tailed Beast Ball.

Although he had mastered the forbidden technique, it came at a price.

I only have two Sharingan, and they will be gone after use, but others can release the Tailed Beast Ball continuously.

"Can't our Tailed Beast Jinchuriki be deployed?"

One person suddenly spoke up, and everyone else had the same thought.

If the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki entered the battlefield, it would undoubtedly be disastrous for the ninja.

Just look at the Valley of the End and you will know that it was that man who controlled the Nine-Tailed Fox and fought against the Shodaime.

In the face of that kind of power, even the terrain had to be changed, and they, the ninjas, were no different from ants.

Terrible!

The only one who can fight against the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki is the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, and they have one in Konoha, and he is the strongest one, the Nine-Tails.

They all knew about the handover of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and the four major ninja villages also knew about it. They didn't know who leaked it, which made them very passive, and was also the reason for the escalation of this war.

But none of this matters, what they care about is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

The Hidden Cloud Village has a whirlpool sealing technique that can perfectly suppress the tailed beasts, and their Konoha's tailed beast sealing is not bad either, and is even more perfect.

If the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki comes over, he can at least intimidate the Cloud Ninja on the opposite side and prevent them from releasing the Tailed Beast Ball. In that case, neither side will be better off.

"Those are just two kids. They can't control the power of the Nine-Tails at this stage. It's good enough that they can maintain it and not go berserk."

Uchiha Mingjing shook his head bitterly, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki could no longer be relied upon.

He had previously reported to the Sandaime that the Hidden Cloud Village would dispatch the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, but the response he gave made him feel discouraged.

"Can the village still send reinforcements?"

Someone stood up and asked, if the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was not sent over, then at least some people should be sent over.

Everyone looked at Uchiha Mingjing.

The topic of the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki is difficult to answer, so now we can only think about the war from other perspectives.

Numbers are another big issue.

There were only 5,000 people on their side, and most of them were just Genin.

The Kumogakure Ninja Army on the opposite side now has a size of 10,000 people, a full double the number, and there are many good jonin-level players.

Although the Uchiha ninjas are very strong, their numbers are limited, and they can never compete with a large ninja village.

Even if the defense is delayed, there will be heavy losses, and it is hard to say how many of you here will survive in the end.

During the last Ninja World War, even the Kages of the five major ninja villages were replaced one or two, let alone these people.

Everyone looked at Uchiha Mingjing, waiting for the commander's response.

"There will be no more reinforcements. We have the largest number of troops on the four fronts right now."

Shaking his head bitterly, Uchiha Mingjing was very depressed about this.

This time the Ninja World War was too unfriendly to their Konoha. The four major ninja villages targeted them at the same time and even formed an alliance to share intelligence.

They are in a relatively good situation as the war has not really started and the losses are not great.

But the situation on the other three battlefields was not so optimistic, especially the one fighting against the Sand Village, which was driven into the territory of the Land of Fire.

Although Konoha was very powerful, it was still very difficult, even life-threatening, to face the siege of four large ninja villages at once.

The four major ninja villages can mobilize about 10,000 troops each. Konoha is in a better situation and can mobilize 20,000 troops, but they can be divided into four, with only about 5,000 troops on each front.

Even though they have the most ninjas in the Konoha clan and are stronger, it is still difficult to make up for the gap in numbers.

A headache!
"The other side has a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, but we don't. And the number of their numbers is twice ours. How can we defeat them?"

One person pounded the table in frustration. This was an unsolvable problem.

Even Uchiha Naka and his companions, who had developed ambitions, were still troubled. Although they were arrogant, they were not fools and they knew very well the gap in strength between them and the Hidden Cloud Ninja Army.

Once the war starts, the outcome will definitely not be good.

Unless they can find an opportunity to control the opponent's Tailed Beast Jinchuriki and in turn kill the Kumogakure Ninja Army.

But the chance is too small. The Cloud Ninjas are not fools. They will definitely be more cautious and even set traps to wait for them to take the bait.

After discussing for a long time without coming up with a good solution, Uchiha Mingjing could only let everyone go and lean back in his chair exhausted.

Uchiha Zhili came over and gently rubbed Uchiha Mingjing's temple to relieve his fatigue.

"I'm afraid this war is going to get out of control again."

Uchiha Mingjing was very worried. His father died at the end of the First Ninja World War. Was he going to share the same fate as his father?

Uchiha Zhili said nothing, just accompanied quietly.
