Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

War is not an end, but a means. Military affairs are a major matter for a country and must be carefully considered. No matter when, we must think twice and be cautious before launching an attack.

Be clear about the purpose, understand the enemy and yourself, strike immediately, and never delay.

Zhishui understood Sima Yi's war philosophy very well. When he was not sure of the outcome, he did not launch an attack immediately even if his army was ready.

As for the Hidden Rain Village, they were originally active in the border area of ​​the three countries. After learning that the Daimyo of the Fire Country ordered Konoha to take action against the Rain Country, they gathered in large numbers at the border of the Fire Country and confronted the Konoha ninjas.

It was precisely because of this that Shisui knew that he could not launch a surprise attack so he chose to temporarily accumulate strength.

At this moment, Shisui was in the office discussing the upcoming war with several other people.

In addition to Shisui and Nara Suzaku, there were Danzo, Mito Kado En, Morino Ibiki, Uchiha Akira, Kakashi, Sarutobi Hiki, and Uchiha Inahime in the office.

Small meetings are held for big matters, and big meetings are held for small matters. As for military and national affairs, Shisui definitely cannot discuss them with too many people.

Originally, there should have been people from the medical department, but due to the influence of Koharu Utane, the structure of the medical department is still being restructured, so they were not notified.

Of course, there is another guy who doesn't fit in with the crowd, and that's Kakashi. He doesn't know why he was called to participate in this kind of meeting, but this is the order of the Hokage, so both he and everyone else have to remain silent.

"The ultimate goal of this battle is to eliminate the masked man hiding in the Hidden Rain Village to protect the safety of the daimyo. Our spies lurking in the Rain Country have collected some intelligence. Currently, there are about two thousand Hidden Rain Ninjas gathered at the border, and there are more scattered teams gathering towards the border. It is estimated that the maximum number of troops that Hidden Rain can mobilize is no more than three thousand."

Yuyin lives in a small country and has not recovered from being attacked by the five major countries. Three thousand is an overestimate. Everyone understands this and has no objection.

"In addition, something seems to have happened in the Hidden Rain Village. After that, there was no news about Hanzo. Instead, there was an organization called Akatsuki. One of the people in the Hidden Rain Village was called Angel-sama. The specific information is unknown."

"Angel?"

Everyone was puzzled. They had never heard of him before, but since he could replace Hanzo, he must be no simple person. This made several old people who were familiar with Hanzo's strength feel heavy.

"It's unbelievable that a person like Hanzo would end up like this"

Mito Menen was a little surprised and couldn't help but feel emotional, while Danzo's eyes changed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"The number of members of Akatsuki cannot be determined, and their strength is also unpredictable. We now know that besides the angels, there is only one person named Pain. This person..."

Nara Suzaku said as he looked at Shisui, then he took a breath and continued, "It is said that this person possesses the legendary Six Paths Sage's Eye, the Samsara Eye."

"Rinnegan? What is that?"

"It's him!"

Some were confused, some were shocked, and Danzo's face changed and he was speechless.

This abnormal scene immediately attracted everyone's attention. Shisui's eyes moved slightly and he asked with concern: "Does Advisor Danzo know about Pein?"

Danzo realized he was speechless and knew he couldn't avoid the questioning, so he simply replied: "I'm afraid you should ask Jiraiya. If I remember correctly, the guy with the Samsara Eye should be called Nagato, and he is Jiraiya's student in the Land of Rain."

"what?"

Everyone was stunned, even Shisui was confused, could it be that Xiao was one of their own?
Shisui looked at Sarutobi Hiaki again, who looked confused. Even the third generation couldn't say whether he knew about this, so how could he know about it.

"Advisor Danzo, please send us the information on Pain after this meeting."

Given Danzo's personality, how could he not be moved when he knew the Rinnegan? He might have done something behind the Third Hokage's back, otherwise he wouldn't have such a big reaction. He had to find Orochimaru and Jiraiya to confirm.

Danzo's face was not very good, and he was not very willing to talk about Nagato. Of course, he definitely did not think that there was anything wrong with his behavior, but it was just a failed action that damaged his image.

However, Shisui would definitely not allow him to disobey the Hokage's orders at will like the Third Hokage did.

'It seems that I can only embellish the matter a little.'

Seeing that Danzo did not refute, Nara Suzaku continued, "Since the war on the eastern front is still undecided, this war with Yugakure must be resolved quickly. Three months is the bottom line."

At this time, Morino Ibiki, who had been silent, stood up and continued, "The intelligence team has arrived at the border and is obtaining more detailed information from the Hidden Rain Village captured by the frontline ninja. In addition, the map of the Rain Country has been updated. As long as the Hidden Rain Village defense line is broken, the army can reach the Hidden Rain Village in half a day at full speed."

Then came Uchiha Akira, "The Anbu has summarized the intelligence collected on the Rain Country during this period. In addition, all trade routes between the Fire Country and the Rain Country have been identified and cut off by us, including the trade between the River Country and the Grass Country, which has also been stopped."

Finally, Uchiha Inahiro also stood up and said, "The police department has already selected the personnel to accompany the troops, and they will record important military matters along the way."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. Why did the Police Department suddenly run outside instead of staying in the village, and in such a strange identity?

"It was my idea."

Shisui spoke, drawing everyone's attention, and then explained, "This war is to protect the Daimyo and to eliminate the evildoers in the ninja world. It is a helpless act, but also an act of justice.

This is a struggle between us and Amegakure. No Konoha ninja will be allowed to violate military discipline and harm civilians during the war. Once discovered, they will be severely punished.

This is a matter concerning Konoha's reputation, and you have repeatedly reminded everyone not to slack off!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded immediately. It is an unwritten rule that wars between ninjas should not involve civilians. However, when there are more than a hundred people, there are all kinds of weirdos and there are always some bad apples hidden among them.

Pedantic
Danzo snorted lightly. He remembered that the people of Akatsuki cared a lot about the civilians. If they used those civilians to threaten them, perhaps a lot of trouble could be saved.

"If you want to achieve great things, you shouldn't care about these things. Shisui, Shisui, you are still not good enough!"

Shisui didn't know what Danzo was thinking. He made some personnel arrangements and ended the meeting.

After everyone left, Shisui immediately arranged for someone to contact Orochimaru and Jiraiya, and Danzo delayed for a while, but was afraid that Shisui would take the initiative to investigate, so he sent the information.

Shisui returned home with the information and discussed it with Sima Yi. After reading it, the two had different expressions.

In Danzo's narration, he designed to have Hanzo kill Akatsuki's first leader Yahiko, successfully provoking the relationship between Akatsuki and Hanzo, causing them to kill each other, and Hanzo may have died as a result.

Danzo did not explain the details, but he still gave Akatsuki some information.

"Why does Danzo always do things like..."

After reading the intelligence, the two speculated that Akatsuki's hatred for Konoha might have originated from Danzo, but neither of them could blame Danzo in this regard.

Hanzo is the enemy, and Akatsuki wants to join forces with Hanzo, which means Akatsuki is the enemy of Konoha.

The only mistake Danzo made was that he failed to do his best to completely destroy the Akatsuki organization, and he did not tell the Third Generation about the incident afterwards so that he could be prepared in advance, thus nurturing a tiger to harm himself.

"If he had accomplished everything, Konoha wouldn't be like this now."

"That's what Grandpa said."

"But then again, Jiraiya accepted three students, one of whom was killed by Hanzo. Of the remaining two, one possessed the Rinnegan, and the other might be a so-called angel.

This is about Jiraiya. It seems that Yugakure is more complicated than we thought. Let's continue to collect intelligence and wait for Jiraiya and Orochimaru to reply. "Intelligence is the first stage of war, and the amount of intelligence directly affects the subsequent war.

Now it seems that Jiraiya and Orochimaru undoubtedly have important information, so it is worth waiting for them for a while.

Shisui nodded, and then said: "Another student of Jiraiya-senpai is the Yondaime. The strength of the Yondaime is obvious to all. The strength of several people in the same school as the Yondaime is probably not simple either. Add to that Obito who is hiding in the dark, and the strength of Amegakure is unimaginable.

Grandpa, I plan to seal the Two-Tails into my body, and then call on Hiroki, Izayoi, and Uncle Fugaku to fight together, and we must win the battle."

Even Shisui wasn't sure if he could face the legendary Rinnegan alone.

"In that case, then replace my eyes with yours. Don't rush to refuse. It's just a swap. I still have a pair of young eyes. Besides, the importance of this battle is far beyond your imagination."

"Grandpa, please speak!"

“This battle must not only be won, but also won quickly and easily, not only for the present, but also for the future.

You have to let the ninja world see Konoha's strength, so that you can deter other countries in the upcoming civil unrest and buy time for our reforms."

Zhishui vaguely guessed Yan Shifan's purpose in the capital. He was silent for a moment and then nodded heavily.

"Thank you grandpa!"

Sima Yi's constant reminders made Zhishui feel more stressed.

Konoha is now walking on thin ice, surrounded by enemies from abroad. The Kirigakure is tying down thousands of Konoha's troops, and the Rain Village is facing a powerful and unknown enemy related to the legendary Six Paths Sage, and there is also Uchiha Obito who possesses the Mangekyō.

Although other countries did not take action, they were all keeping an eye on Konoha, hoping that Konoha would fall into the quagmire of war to buy them time to recover, and then wait for an opportunity to launch the Fourth Ninja World War and redefine the territory.

At the same time, more and more ninjas are being trained by nobles across the country. Although the time is still short, some bad signs have already appeared.

There are also some esoteric arts families in the village who are always dissatisfied with Shisui's free distribution of ninjutsu. There is also a Shimura Danzo hiding in secret who always has ulterior motives. Shisui needs to keep an eye on all of these.

Now all of this will be linked to the upcoming war. Once Konoha suffers a setback on the Rain Hidden Battlefield, all problems will erupt one after another.

After figuring this out, Shisui's breathing became a little rapid, but he quickly calmed down.

This war is inevitable. For Konoha and Uchiha, all enemies, whether overt or covert, must be eliminated!

The two of them quickly completed the eye replacement surgery, and Shisui could clearly feel Sima Yi's pupil power merging with his.

"It should be the effect of the primary cells. The fusion speed is faster than I thought. It should be completely fused in half a month!"

"Yes, there seems to be a kind of power brewing in it. You should rest well and prepare yourself during this period. After it is fully integrated, we can talk about sealing the tailed beast."

"Okay, Grandpa."

The operation performed by the two did not alarm anyone, and all departments of Konoha operated in an orderly manner under Shisui's arrangement.

In the border areas, the mobilization of the ninja army and the transportation of supplies made everyone realize that the war with Yugyakure was not far away.

At the same time, Yuyin Village.

Xiaonan stood on the drainpipe, the rain dripping down her cheeks. Below her were the sparsely populated villagers. Today, the Hidden Rain Village was more depressing than ever before.

The war that once brought them endless suffering has come again.

Xiaonan looked at the villagers, wondering what he was thinking.

Suddenly, as if she realized something, she raised her hands without hesitation, and countless papers gathered and rotated like a high-speed cutting machine, and then she threw them back suddenly.

The space twisted and Obito, wearing a mask, walked out. He looked at the paper circle flying towards him calmly and let it pass through his body.

"Little girl, is this your way of entertaining guests?"

"Are you also a guest of the Rain Country? Why are you provoking a war without permission?!"

No one in Akatsuki likes war, and Konan suffers the most from it.

Obito stared at Konan. He really wanted to tell her that he did have this idea, but it was really not done by him.

But
Wearing a mask, Sharingan, immunity to physical attacks, and the old practice of controlling the Mizukage, he knew that no one would believe he was innocent.

"For peace."

Obito said in a deep voice, since there is no explanation, just admit it.

"Peace?"

Xiaonan was furious. She didn't expect the person in front of her to be so shameless. He started a war but said it had become peace.

"Hehe, how much can you know?

The only thing that brings peace is war. Only when people understand the pain of war will they stick to peace. This is the meaning of Akatsuki's existence!"

Konan might not agree with this statement, but Nagato deeply believes it.

Sure enough, the next moment, Payne appeared beside the two of them.

"Payne!"

"I already know the truth, Konan. What Madara said is right. Gather all the tailed beasts and let the world feel the pain of war, so as to deter the ninja world and create peace. This is the meaning of Akatsuki's existence. Now it is just ahead of schedule. But it doesn't matter. I will make Konoha feel the pain and give up the idea of ​​war!"

Payne looked calm and his tone was even more indifferent.

In front of Obito, Konan naturally obeyed Pain's orders.

Seeing this, Obito breathed a sigh of relief, then his body twisted and a figure appeared behind him.

This person has green hair and purple eyes, and there is a scar under his left eye that looks like a suture mark. He holds a stick-like weapon with a hook on the front and decorated with green flowers, but his eyes reveal emptiness and confusion. He is the controlled Fourth Mizukage.

"This is the Three-Tails. Use it to increase the power of the Akatsuki."

Obito said and left.

"Nagato."

"Don't worry, wait for Kakuzu and Orochimaru to come back, then we'll start. I'll make a rainbow appear in the Land of Rain!" (End of this chapter)
