Naruto: Yes, Uchiha-sama.

Chapter 116: Tobirama Senju is smug and arrogant, while Makoto Uchiha is secretly raiding someone's base.

Shinji Uzumaki's attitude actually represents the attitude of the members of Akatsuki Village and the Uzumaki clan.

The war has reached such a critical moment, and now even the Iwagakure Village wants to get involved in this war. Even if we put aside the huge advantages that the Akatsuki Village and the Uzumaki clan have gained on the battlefield and start from the beginning, if Konoha, Akatsuki Village, and the Uzumaki clan face the current Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village, it will be three to two. No matter what, the advantage is on me!

We were about to fight to the death, why did Konoha surrender first?
Following Uzumaki Shinji's opening words.
The senior leaders of Akatsuki Village all echoed this.

Obviously.

To ask them to cease fire unconditionally at this time is undoubtedly a fantasy.

But
Konoha's attitude is crucial.

It can even be said that it is enough to determine the outcome of this war.

If the Iwagakure Village intervenes, it will be difficult for the Akatsuki Village and the Uzumaki clan to cope with it without the help of Konoha.

Currently, Konoha has three powerful figures who can decide the direction of the war - Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha, and Tobirama Senju.

The attitude of Tobirama Senju, the commander-in-chief of the Konoha Ninja Army, is very clear. The naturally evil old man Senju obviously does not want the scale of the war to continue to expand.

Moreover, the attitude of the First Hokage has always been consistent because too many ninjas died in the war, and too much blood has been shed among ninjas. Many conflicts can be resolved through dialogue, negotiation, and discussion. This argument is very much to the liking of Hashirama Senju, and he has also expressed his agreement with the ideas of the First Tsuchikage.

Another person who has great decision-making power in Konoha is Uchiha Madara.

For some reason, he did not express his attitude this time. According to the Uchiha clan members, Lord Madara has been staying indoors in the Uchiha clan territory recently. From time to time, he would go to the Nanga Shrine deep in the clan territory and sit there for the whole day, looking as if he was indifferent to worldly affairs.

The three big bosses of Konoha
Two of them clearly wanted an unconditional ceasefire, while the other chose to remain silent for some unknown reason. Even the Konoha high-level officials knew which side they should stand on in this matter. However, a large number of them also felt that it was too much to ask the Akatsuki Village to cease fire unconditionally.

The war situation is now clearly in our favor.

Besides, everyone has spent so much effort to reorganize the troops and traveled so far to come to the battlefield of Kumogakure, they can't just go through the motions, now is the time to press on and pursue the victory. After several years of recuperation, the strength of the young faction of Konoha has continued to grow, and the young ninjas are eager for military merit and want to make great achievements!

However, although the Konoha high-level officials present showed an eager look, they finally restrained themselves and chose to remain silent.

Because they have no say, let alone decision-making power.

The atmosphere in the tent was tense.

Also very embarrassing.

Uchiha Makoto observed everyone's expressions.

He probably understood their thoughts now. A large number of Konoha ninjas also wanted to fight. After all, this was a great start. There was no conflict between defeating the enemy together and seizing the fruits of victory in Akatsuki Village.

But there are two "insects" on top of his head.

"Everyone has come from afar today. There's no need to make a decision today on such an important matter. Let's put aside the unconditional ceasefire between the Akatsuki and Kumo ninjas for now. Why don't we have a meal together first?"

"This meal is at the expense of Akatsuki Village!"

Uchiha Makoto knew it was time for him to speak.

Since the issue of ceasefire cannot be solved for the time being, it is better to have a meal quickly and have an in-depth exchange of feelings between the allies of both sides. The friendship between the allies of both sides is really a bit plastic.

"Then let's eat first."

Senju Tobirama also saw the situation. It might not be easy to make Uchiha Makoto surrender and recognize the situation in a short time, so he nodded in agreement. More importantly, he was also hungry.

Since Uchiha Makoto is treating us, we must eat the Akatsuki Shinobi out of their wits. With this in mind, Senju Tobirama plans to have a big meal.

Uchiha Makoto naturally would not be afraid of such a boring challenge. It was just a meal and it was not enough to make the Akatsuki Shinobi village bankrupt. Then the logistics staff of Akatsuki Shinobi Village began to cook.

as far as I can tell
Although Konoha's financial situation is not as prosperous and wealthy as that of Akatsuki Village.

However, it can also be described as abundant.

After all, the daimyo would reimburse Konoha for the protection fee on time every year.

But funding is limited after all.

Tobirama Senju spent most of the funds for this ninja army's expedition on medical care and armaments. These two expenses are like bottomless pits, and the more the better. The ninjas' appetites are not so important, so the food conditions in Konoha are definitely not as good as those in Akatsuki Village.

Uchiha Makoto specially invited a chef from the Land of Fire to come to Akatsuki Village to provide logistical guidance on cooking skills.

After a hard battle, having a delicious meal is definitely a pleasure, and it can immediately boost the morale of the ninjas.

“Uh, it tastes really good.”

"Do you Xiaonin usually eat this kind of food for three meals a day during the battle?"

"Of course, this is all carefully prepared by Lord Light and Shadow, isn't it delicious?"

"tasty."

The Konoha ninjas, who had traveled a long way and were exhausted by the long journey, were obviously amazed at the quality of Akatsuki's food.

no way.

The bulk of the Konoha Ninja Army's funds are invested in armaments and medical care, and since ninjas themselves have always advocated endurance, one can imagine their daily diet.

Of course, no one can blame Senju Tobirama's behavior. It was a very wise choice. The desire for food is not as important as the life of a ninja. If there were no conditions, Uchiha Makoto would definitely do the same and spend all the money wisely.

But this is not about being rich!
But the worst thing about everything is comparison.

Xiao Ren has moved beyond the low-level need of just being full and has begun to pursue taste.

Lunch lasted from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The ninja's chakra is the product of the combination of physical and spiritual energy. Spiritual energy is very mysterious, but physical energy is very simple. It is obtained directly from food. The Konoha ninja, who had little oil in his stomach, obviously wanted to take this opportunity to have a big meal.

Especially the Akimichi clan, one of the three major families of Konoha, they have obviously been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

"I remember that Lord Guangying also seemed to have extended an invitation to the Qiumichi clan."

“It seems so.”

"Oh if"

"Shut up, someone might hear you!"

The Akimichi people who were eating crazily were whispering to each other. The Nara people who were eating with them, who were always very politically sensitive, immediately spoke up to remind them that they dared to say such things. They were trying to kill themselves.

After receiving the reminder, the Qiu Dao people immediately shut up and concentrated on eating, looking like starving ghosts reincarnated.

Xiao Ren's logistics staff served the dishes continuously without stopping for a moment.

"Would you like a dessert after dinner, chocolate or ice cream?"

"I want it all!"

The Konoha ninja was obviously a little greedy, or perhaps he had never seen the world and chose to take it all.

Anyway, they were very satisfied with their meal. After eating so much, the Konoha ninjas all had bellies like watermelons.

And the Xiao Ren came over in groups of two or three.

"Why did you Konoha take so long to come this time? But you came just in time. The Iwagakure has also joined us. We can fight the Iwagakure together..."

"Iwagakure still wants us to cease fire unconditionally."

"At this moment, they are probably joking."

"I heard that the Konoha high-ranking officials also agree with this statement. Is that true? We are allies. You won't be backstabbing dogs, will you?"

Anticipation, teasing, ridicule, very complicated emotions were mixed in the conversation with the Konoha ninja.

"How is that possible!"

"We were delayed because of war preparations. How could Konoha be a backstabbed dog?"

Obviously
He is soft on people, but short on mouth when eating people.

I just had a full meal at Xiaoren's place.
Turn around and be backstabbed.

The Konoha ninjas still have to have some shame.

Even Senju Tobirama was unable to make everyone in Konoha agree on what they wanted.

The younger Konoha ninjas couldn't wait to start swearing and swearing after just a little verbal teasing from the Akatsuki ninjas.

Xiao Ren immediately smiled and mingled with the Konoha ninjas, actively trying to get close to them.

The atmosphere of communication was good for a while.

For the long-term future of Konoha, Tobirama Senju's intention to weaken the Akatsuki Village cannot be revealed to the outside world.

At most, he would give some subtle hints to the close Konoha high-ranking officials and the ninja clan leader.

"New Ninja" is also a best-selling book in Konoha. Akatsuki and Konoha are also allies. Ordinary ninjas in Konoha actually have a good impression of Akatsuki Village.

Especially Uchiha Makoto.

Humans are just so strange.

Analyzed from a rational perspective.

The Konoha ninjas were also puzzled by this war. It was totally unreasonable for them to fight such a large-scale war just for three Chunins.

If Iwagakure also joins the war, it is very likely to evolve into a ninja world war. Uchiha Makoto is like a madman who is dragging the ninja world into the abyss of war.
But from a personal emotional point of view. Damn, Mr. Light and Shadow is awesome!

The cause of the war was that the people of the Hidden Cloud Village killed three Chunins of Konoha and Akatsuki because of a conflict in their mission. They even dared to attack the ninjas of Konoha and Akatsuki at will. Everyone scolded the Hidden Cloud Village for being ungrateful. In fact, both sides hated the Hidden Cloud Village very much, and when they scolded each other, they became friends.

Emotions accumulate quickly without you noticing.

Uchiha Makoto arranged people to slowly steal the house. Senju Tobirama naturally didn't know about these things now, because ordinary ninjas and the high-ranking officials of the ninja village did not eat in the same place, and he was also held back by Uchiha Makoto and Uzumaki Shinji.

For the Uzumaki clan.

Senju Tobirama still wanted to save her.

For the future of the Uzumaki clan
Shinji Uzumaki should immediately bring the Uzumaki clan closer to Konoha, follow Konoha's pace, put pressure on Uchiha Makoto, end this war unconditionally as soon as possible, and everyone should return home and live a peaceful life.

Konoha will not treat the Uzumaki clan unfairly!

Don't be fooled by Uchiha Makoto, the inherently evil Uchiha brat.

He just has ulterior motives towards the Uzumaki clan.

Want to use the Uzumaki clan!
Of course, the words would not be so straightforward.

After all, there are people around.

Senju Tobirama put his words quite tactfully.

But
This is indeed what the words meant. Senju Tobirama is actually very sincere to the Uzumaki clan.

What he said was also sincere.

Even though the Uzumaki clan stabbed the Senju clan, stabbed Konoha, formed an alliance with the Akatsuki Village without authorization, and entered into a political marriage with Uchiha Makoto, and did not listen to his advice, but insisted on getting involved in the war between the Akatsuki Village and the Hidden Cloud Village, and just now he stood on the side of the Akatsuki Village at such a critical moment, which was equivalent to stepping on all the red lines in Senju Tobirama's heart, but as long as the Uzumaki clan can turn back, he can ignore these things!
These are all the work of Uchiha Makoto, the inherently evil Uchiha kid, behind the scenes!
Senju Tobirama still regards the Uzumaki clan as Konoha's blood ally. If the Uzumaki clan is harassed by other ninja villages or even launched into war.

Then he would definitely bring his elder brother and Konoha to support the Uzumaki clan without saying a word.

"Hmph, I'll consider it."

Shinji Uzumaki had a cold expression and answered perfunctorily.

He even wanted to pour the wine in his hand directly on Senju Tobirama's face, but for various reasons, Uzumaki Shinji chose to endure it.

In Uzumaki Shinji's opinion.
Whatever Senju Tobirama says now is bullshit.

Uchiha Makoto is a legitimate member of the Uchiha clan of Konoha, while the Uzumaki clan is an ally of the Senju clan, and they are also allies of Konoha.

Both sides are similar in terms of background and status.

The Akatsuki Village has already gained a huge advantage on the battlefield. It's bad enough that you, Konoha, have been dragging your feet and only coming here now, but after coming here you are even thinking of backstabbing the Akatsuki Village. If anything happens to the Uzumaki clan one day, can you really count on Konoha?
On practical action.

For the three Chunins
If the Akatsuki Village can launch such a war regardless of the consequences, the Uzumaki clan will definitely not be spared if they are in trouble in the future. So, no matter how you look at it, the Akatsuki Village and Uchiha Makoto are more trustworthy.

Shinji Uzumaki chose to end the topic on his own initiative.

Senju Tobirama felt that he seemed to be asking for trouble, so he didn't want to say anything more and returned to his seat.

Anyway, that's all he had to say.

For the Uzumaki clan.

He has a clear conscience!
Since the Uzumaki clan cannot be persuaded.
The key to the problem is actually Uchiha Makoto.

So Senju Tobirama came to Uchiha Makoto, with a death poker face and a little smugness on his face, and started his verbal offensive.

The eldest brother is that innocent “fool”.

His intentions were good, and this was a great decision.

I finally supported myself by accident!
Although Uchiha Makoto still holds a great advantage in public opinion, many Konoha ninjas are actually very interested in this war. However, since his eldest brother has already spoken in support of the First Tsuchikage, he feels relieved.

He just didn't want to make the situation too embarrassing.

Senju Tobirama hopes that Uchiha Makoto will take the initiative to face the reality - the situation of this war is no longer something he can control. Unless Uchiha Makoto is really crazy and leaves Konoha alone, leading the Akatsuki Village to fight one against two, that would be great!
