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

The Iwagakure Ninja Army was very efficient and arrived at the front line after the Five-Tails Jinchuriki recovered from his injuries.

The chakra of the tailed beasts is not very friendly to humans, especially if they explode with overload before they have been in sync with each other, they will inevitably hurt themselves.

The last time the Five-Tails exploded into its complete form, it caused considerable damage to Fei, and it took him half a month to recover.

After arriving at the front line, Zi conducted a series of tests on it, and finally even communicated with the Five Tails in its body and reached an agreement.

An agreement was reached regarding a young man who stole their power, and that he must be killed and the stolen power taken back.

During this period, the Rock Ninjas on the front line were also busy recovering from the injuries they sustained in the last battle. Those who needed treatment were treated, and those with serious injuries were sent back to the village for treatment. All the consumed ninja tools were also replenished.

Originally, they had not planned to have such a decisive battle so soon, but the Konoha side was too ruthless and attacked directly to the entrance of their village. If they did not fight back, how could the Iwagakure Village survive in the ninja world?

Konoha was also well prepared and repaired one of the defense lines destroyed in the last war. As for the other line, it was destroyed so thoroughly that even the deep foundation was destroyed by the Iwagakure's large-scale earth-style ninjutsu, making it impossible to repair it.

The replenishment of ninja tools is also necessary, and both sides are ready for the decisive battle.

However, something unexpected happened here. Rumors emerged that Tamura Hao's information had been leaked, and the purpose of that battle to seize the power of the Five-Tails had also been leaked. It was said that the Iwagakure's attack this time was purely for revenge, and all the mistakes were on Tamura.

"Investigate. We must investigate thoroughly."

Jiraiya was so angry that his face turned blue. At this critical moment, there were still people who dared to spread such remarks. This was disrupting the morale of the army.

The expressions of Minato Namikaze and others were not very good. This method was really disgusting.

However, Tamura Hao and Nara Shikaku, who were present at the meeting, looked calm, so calm that it frightened the others.

"Shikaku, Xiaohao, this matter must be an Iwagakure spy..."

Jiraiya felt something was wrong and hurried to explain, but Nara Shikaku raised his hand to stop him.

"Master Jiraiya, please don't interfere in this matter. This is not your problem. It is our Ino-Shika-Chou problem. It is an internal problem of the village.

We all knew it in our hearts and were mentally prepared when we came here, but we didn't expect their methods to be so low-level.

They used this trick to kill Senior White Fang back then, and now they use it on us again. They don’t even know how to come up with some new tricks. They are really old.”

Nara Shikaku had a mocking look on his face, as if he was mocking the despicable and unpresentable methods used by some people.

When talking about the White Fang incident, the expressions of several people present changed slightly.

I was a little skeptical at first, but when I thought about the White Fang incident that year, it seemed that there was really no way to explain it.

"We can investigate this matter, and I will definitely give you an explanation."

Jiraiya hurriedly made the promise, still lingering a fantasy in his heart.

"Senior Jiraiya, you can't give me this explanation. You know this very well. Don't talk big now, otherwise you will end up being in trouble."

Tamura Hao spoke, and then turned his gaze to Namikaze Minato.

"Minato-senpai, we originally wanted to give you some more time to consider, but some people seem unwilling to give you that time.

You can express your opinion today whether you want our support."

They had anticipated this kind of thing long ago. Long before he displayed the tailed beast form and made Sarutobi Shinnosuke kill him, and long before he displayed the superimposed form of the four beasts in the Iwagakure Village, they had anticipated that the other party would definitely play a card, it was just a matter of what kind of card it would be.

Since they had anticipated this, they naturally had targeted arrangements as well, so they could just take advantage of the opponent's strategy.

Even if it wasn't done by someone in the village or a Iwagakure spies, they would pin the blame on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Those people wanted to plant a seed in the hearts of the ninjas here through rumors, which would quickly take root and sprout when there were losses after this war, and then they would blame all the faults on themselves and Ino-Shika-Chou.

It is indeed insidious, but it can only fool ordinary ninjas. It is a good opportunity for those who are worth winning over to see the true colors of those people.

Yuhi Shinku and Mitarai Shishao also turned their gazes to Namikaze Minato, with some guesses in their hearts.

Namikaze Minato gave a bitter smile, why did it turn to him?
It was really difficult for him to make this decision, because it would mean breaking with the Third Hokage's faction, and a civil war would most likely break out in the village, killing many people, and Konoha might even perish if he wasn't careful.

"I knew that you, Minato-senpai, lacked the decisiveness and ruthlessness, and were far inferior to Orochimaru-senpai.

Maybe you think you can slowly take power and change the village after becoming Hokage, but why do you think you can defeat those people in political tactics?"

Tian Cun Hao showed a disappointed expression, stood up and left, as if he was too lazy to continue talking nonsense.

Nara Shikaku also stood up and left, also not wanting to continue talking nonsense. Before leaving, he even put the Flying Thunder God Kunai he had been carrying with him on the table, formally stating his separation from Namikaze Minato and even being on guard against him.

After all, Namikaze Minato himself was not their choice. They were just putting their names on his side to attract some people's attention, and then turn to Orochimaru.

Moreover, they have already reached an agreement with Lord Orochimaru. First, they will fully support Orochimaru in the competition for Hokage. If those people are too ruthless, Orochimaru will decisively give up and transfer the personnel and power in his hands to them to fully support Lady Tsunade.

The reason why Minato Namikaze was not chosen was that he was not ruthless enough. Being indecisive cannot make him a good Hokage, and he cannot eliminate the darkness in the village today.

Watching the two people leave, Jiraiya opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

Namikaze Minato held his forehead with his hand, also not knowing what to say. He never thought that competing for the position of Hokage would be so difficult.

Yuhi Shinku and Mitarai Shishao looked at each other with subtle eyes. Although Tamura Hao and Nara Shikaku didn't say much before, the information they revealed was shocking.

Ino-Shika-Chou used to support Minato Namikaze, but now she has turned to support Orochimaru.

Not to mention the thoughts of the four people here, on the other side, Nara Shikaku found Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza who had been squatting in the dormitory to practice and break through, and told them about his previous statement in the conference room.

"How do we break the impasse?"

It was a rare occasion that Akimichi Chouzu asked.

"Fighting with the Iwagakure will only start a high-level war.

This time, the Iwagakure Village launched an all-out attack and even dispatched the Five-Tails Jinchuriki for a reason. We are responsible for the damage caused after the war began, and we cannot shirk this responsibility.

Only by launching a war of fighting generals and forcing the ninja army to avoid war can we break the deadlock perfectly."

Tamura Hao told the solution he thought of. He had often seen this kind of fighting generals method on TV dramas before, especially in the TV dramas and movies of the Three Kingdoms series. The battlefield was almost a personal show of the generals.

"Do you want to invite the old man and Lady Tsunade?"

Yamanaka Haiyi asked, this is indeed a method, but it requires showing overwhelming advantage, and they are still a little short of it on their own.

After all, they are two tailed beast Jinchuriki, and both of them have the experience of showing their perfect tailed beast transformation. Who knows whether they will become perfect tailed beasts on the battlefield.

Half-tailed beast and complete tailed beast are two completely different concepts and exist at different levels.

"I'm afraid not. The Sand Village and the Iwagakure Village are allied, and they are probably keeping a close eye on that side right now. Once Lady Tsunade and Uncle Takefu leave, a war will break out immediately.

After taking down Kikyoyama Castle, the Sand Village will have more advantages in the negotiations, and the other party will not miss this opportunity."

Nara Shikaku shook his head. That was their base, and there couldn't be any problems there. They had to hold on until the peace talks were over and the Sand Village Ninja Army withdrew.

We can even see this peace talk as a strategy of retreating to advance by the Sand Village, and it should not be taken lightly.

"Brother Haiyi, I'm afraid we have to take some risks."

Tamura Hao looked at Yamanaka Inoichi and originally wanted to wait a little longer, but now he had no choice but to take a risk.

"I just want to break through under the stimulation of a strong person."

Yamanaka Hai smiled, and there was a rare hint of madness in his eyes.

He Shanzhong Haiyi is also a brave and combative man!
"I'll go get him."

Nara Shikaku got up and left, and came back not long after with a captured Iwagakure.

This is just a Chunin. It's not that there are no Jonin prisoners, but they dare not use them.

According to the rules of that forbidden technique, the stronger the sacrifice, the closer the strength of the deceased resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation will be to that of the deceased in life.

They only needed the memory and pupil power of the Uchiha clan leader, and there was no need to fully restore his strength. Tamura Hao did not delay, using a group of cells cultured from the pair of Sharingan as a medium to perform the spell. Soon, a group of dirty earth emitting an ominous aura wrapped the rock ninja, and with the other party's screams, he turned into a middle-aged man wearing lavender laminated armor.

Shan Zhong Haiyi did not delay, he first used the spiritualization technique to separate the soul from the body, and then used the soul as the foundation to use the talent of the immortals to draw the natural energy to gather and integrate into the soul for further improvement.

This is a variant application of the talents of the immortals. After all, the soul is the root of spiritual consciousness, and the talents of the immortals can also be applied.

Although it is only a preliminary exploration and can only simply draw in natural energy and integrate it, the improvement is also very limited, but any improvement is appreciated at this time.

After further transforming his soul into immortal with the help of natural energy, Yamanaka Haiyi plunged into Uchiha Tajima's soul.

As the soul entered the body, Uchiha Tajima's unawakened consciousness was stimulated to revive. His tightly closed eyes opened to reveal a pair of Sharingan with complex patterns, which was the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Tamura Hao even used magic to suppress Uchiha Tajima's spiritual consciousness with the help of talismans. Although the current talismans are not perfect, they can suppress it to some extent.

Nara Shikaku and Akimichi Choza were ready to suppress the situation at any time. As for more things, they couldn't do anything at this stage and could only rely on Yamanaka Inoichi.

After waiting quietly for more than ten minutes, Uchiha Tajima's expression finally calmed down and revealed a sense of fatigue.

"Xiao Hao."

The voice of Yamanaka Inoichi was heard, proving that it had been successful.

Tiancun Hao breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately controlled the ape demon that had turned out earlier to lie down and stretch out his head.

After this period of time of nourishment with life energy and chakra, the size of the ape demon has increased significantly, and its height has reached ten meters.

Fortunately, the space in this basement is large enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate this big guy.

When it grew to this size, Tamura Hao transplanted Hashirama's face onto Saruman's forehead and connected the three eyes to the brain nerves, giving it vision.

Yamanaka Inoichi did not delay at all and controlled Uchiha Tajima's reincarnated body to cast the spell. His Mangekyō Sharingan looked at the first generation's face on Saruman's forehead and used the secret technique of transcription and sealing to seal all the eye power and eye techniques in the soul.

The Transcription Seal is a secret technique of the Uchiha family, developed specifically for the Mangekyo. It can seal the pupil technique into the target's eyes, which will be displayed when the set conditions are triggered.

The future Uchiha Itachi sealed Amaterasu in Uchiha Sasuke's eyes, hoping to use it to kill Uchiha Obito.

But now, Yamanaka Inoichi is controlling the reincarnated body of Uchiha Tajima, transferring and sealing all the eye power and eye techniques in his soul, so that Uchiha Tajima's revealed Sharingan can no longer be maintained and turns into black eyes.

After doing all this, Yamanaka Inoichi first used a secret technique to transmit the memories of Uchiha Tajima that he saw to Tamura Hao, and then his soul returned to his body and he fainted instantly.

After all, he hasn't broken through to that level yet. It's very dangerous to invade a Kage-level powerhouse, especially when the other party is a being who has awakened the Kaleidoscope.

This time, it can be said that he was really trying his best.

However, the results were gratifying. Uchiha Tajima's eye power and eye technique merged perfectly with his eyes when he was alive, allowing those eyes to finally be completely revived.

Before, he only used the life force and the Yang Release power of Hashirama's cells to repair the damage to his eyes, but the pupil power could not be replenished.

After all, it was only the eyes that were transplanted, but not the body, especially the most important brain and soul, so the pupil power cannot be restored out of thin air.

Now, with the supplement of the eye power and eye technique from the ghost of Uchiha Tajima, the eye power of these eyes has recovered a little and is no longer exhausted.

Even though it is still far from its peak state, it is already usable.

"Take Brother Haiyi upstairs to rest first. I will hone my pupil power here."

Shaking his head, which was a little dizzy due to the huge impact of memories, Tamura Hao said something and then sealed Sarumochi into the Eight Trigrams Seal again, guiding the power of the tailed beasts and the power of the Creation Lotus to gather on his body, trying to merge with the eye power and the Susanoo inside.

Strictly speaking, the Mangekyo has three dojutsu. In addition to the two fixed dojutsu, the third one is Susanoo, which is known as the power of God. It is the focus of Tamura Hao's adventure plan this time.

Nara Shikaku nodded to Akimichi Choza who had been eating silently, then picked up Yamanaka Inichi and walked over to prepare medication.

Obviously Haiyi suffered mental damage. It is unknown how long it will take for him to recover on his own. It would be better with the help of some medication.

In this regard, we have to admire the profound heritage of the Senju family and the medical skills of Lady Tsunade. After cooperating with them, the secret medicines of their three families have been comprehensively improved and upgraded, with stronger effects and fewer side effects.

Even this kind of mental damage can be recovered with the help of corresponding drugs.

Below, Akimichi Choza continued to eat while guarding Tamura Hao who was practicing silently.

Tamura Hao guides the fusion of the power of the tailed beasts and the Mangekyō in the Eight Trigrams Seal.

In the future, Uchiha Sasuke used Susanoo to carry and integrate the power of the nine tailed beasts, proving that this path was feasible and he only needed to imitate it.

Moreover, he only obtained and fused part of the power of the nine tailed beasts, and as they had all been purified by the golden finger, the fusion was much easier.

What Tamura Hao didn't expect was that the power of the tailed beasts actually had an amplifying effect on the Mangekyo's eye power, and even promoted the fusion of the eye power with the Yang Release power of Hashirama's cells.

In particular, the Nine-Tails Chakra, which possesses the power of Yin-Yang Release, has the greatest auxiliary effect in this regard.

Even the transplanted Byakugan and Corpse Bone Vein powers were guided to merge at a deeper level, as if the bloodline was returning to its ancestral state.

"Is it really possible to return to one's ancestral home?"

Tian Cun Hao understood and did not find it strange.

After all, the Ten-Tails was able to help Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Madara evolve into Otsutsuki forms one after another, and even the iconic horns grew out of them. It was normal for it to promote the fusion of the Sharingan's pupil power and Hashirama's cells.

As for the Shikotsuki Bloodline and Byakugan, they were inherited by Otsutsuki Hamura. They and the bloodline passed down by the Six Paths Sage both originated from Otsutsuki Kaguya, and they are of the same origin, so it is normal that they can be integrated.

It's a pity that the transformation that Tiancun Hao wanted most did not occur. It just simply merged more closely with the ape demon's body, especially the fusion of the corpse bone vein with the bones of the whole body, expanding the power of the corpse bone vein to the entire body skeleton.

The ape demon's skeletal structure changed, with the biggest changes being in the pelvis and lower limbs, which stood upright, and the legs became thicker and longer, moving closer to human form.

The power of the Byakugan and Sharingan was also eroding and fusing with Enma's brain, transforming it. The power of the nine tailed beasts was also further integrated into Enma's body with the help of the transformation of the Eight Trigrams Seal.

Although the integration is not much, it is a good start.

Not to mention Tamura Hao and the other four who are making final preparations for tomorrow's battle, all forces are paying close attention to this battle and have sent people to watch, even Orochimaru came in person.

What he was concerned about was the extent to which his nephew would be able to utilize the power of the nine tailed beasts after obtaining it, and he was looking forward to it.

The people at Kikyo Fort also knew about the battle here. Although Tsunade was worried, she really couldn't get away now. The Seven-Tails had just wandered around nearby during the day, and it was obvious that it wanted to drag them here.

"Orochimaru sent a letter and arrived in the Land of Grass in person. Everything will be fine with him watching over it in secret."

Akimichi Tofu came over and handed a letter to Tsunade who was walking around.

This can be considered as an expression of sincerity by Orochimaru. After all, they are allies now, and Minato Namikaze will most likely not be so cruel. Ino-Shika-Chou will eventually have to cooperate with Orochimaru and support him in competing for the position of Hokage.

At least he will support Orochimaru. As for what those younger generations are planning, he won't care, as long as they can connect with him.

Tsunade quickly took it and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was Orochimaru's handwriting.

"I'm not worried about the Iwagakure Village. I'm just worried about what the people in the village might be planning."

Tsunade was still worried, after all, the traitor was almost killed last time.

"They are all very smart. It is impossible for them to fall in the same place."

Akimichi Norifu was relatively relieved. Last time he really didn't expect the Sarutobi family to suddenly kill him. The other party's problem was more serious than he imagined.

But after that experience, Xiao Haozi and his companions will definitely be on guard, and they will be on guard against everyone, and they will not be easily tricked again.

Coupled with Xiao Haozi's Flying Thunder God Technique, he can run away as soon as danger occurs.

"How did the village become like this?"

Tsunade was very annoyed. When her great-grandfather was around, the village was peaceful, but now it was full of intrigue, assassinations and murders, and even children were not spared.

“Everything has a lifespan. Even a tree will eventually decay after it grows up. This is the cycle of heaven and earth.

All we can do is to find a way to revive the great tree of Konoha, even if it means completely destroying it and letting it sprout again."

Qiu Daoqufeng's current thoughts are quite radical. He must eradicate the dark side of the village at all costs, even if it means a war breaks out in the village and the entire village is reduced to ruins. (End of this chapter)
