Konoha: Uchiha's Magnificent Rebellion

Seeing Uchiha Yuan walk in, Feng and Ohno immediately stood up and said.

Uchiha Yuan asked: "Have the casualties been counted?"

"We've counted the casualties in today's battle. 27 of us were killed, including 3 mid-nin and 6 chunin. 14 of us were seriously injured, and 21 were slightly injured."

Uchiha Yuan was silent for a moment and then said, "Including the casualties from the previous battles, we have lost 135 ninjas."

Do not underestimate the death data of more than one hundred ninjas. This data may not be a big deal for a large ninja village with tens of thousands of ninjas, but for a small ninja village with a maximum of two or three thousand ninjas, it has reached a serious damage level.

"Yes, my lord. If the war with the Rain ninja continues, we must send a message to the village to send reinforcements. However, most of the village's forces are dealing with the Taki ninja and the Iwa ninja."

Uchiha Yuan said: "I understand, what about the losses of the Rain Ninja?"

"According to calculations, the number of Rain Ninja killed in battle should be around one hundred."

Hearing this, Uchiha Yuan said: "For the Rain Ninja Army in front of us, this loss is probably not something they can bear."

a few days later.

The sun was shining brightly. In a forest, Uchiha Yuan sat cross-legged under a big tree.

Two butterflies were landing on his fingertips, and a chubby squirrel was standing on his left shoulder, holding a nut in both hands.

A scene of peace and tranquility.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up from the ground, and a figure flashed and appeared.

A Kusa-nin knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "Sir, the Rain-nin have retreated."

Uchiha Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and the butterfly on his fingertips suddenly flew up and danced around him.

He reached out and gently patted the squirrel's head. The squirrel was startled and quickly ran to the tree.

Uchiha Yuan stood up, took a big step forward, and then his figure flashed, using the instant body technique to leave the woods.

In the Kusanagi camp, Kusanagi kept coming in and out quickly.

As soon as Uchiha Yuan entered Feng Heye's tent, he hurried forward and asked, "Sir, the Rain Ninja have retreated. What should we do next? Should we continue to pursue them or return to the village?"

"Since the Rain Ninja have retreated, then we should also return. My goal has been achieved."

Uchiha Yuan said lightly, glancing at Feng and Ohno with sharp eyes.

Among the Grass Ninjas who died in the battle, Feng and Ohno's trusted subordinates all launched self-destruct attacks under the arrangement of Uchiha Yuan, and died together with the Rain Ninjas.

Now only Feng and Ohno are left, but Uchiha Yuan has no intention of letting him go for the time being.

Although Lord Gintoki has earned the respect and recognition of the Kusa ninja, the time has not yet come for him to be officially promoted.

In his vision, when Gintoki completely controls the Kusagakure Village, he will let Feng and Ohno die at the hands of the Iwagakure ninja.

Under the surveillance of the Kusagakure ninja, after the Rain ninja completely withdrew from the Land of Grass, the Kusagakure ninja support forces also began to return to the Kusagakure Village.

However, Uchiha Yuan was not among them. He entered the Land of Rain alone.

For Uchiha Yuan, who has already regarded the Grass Country as his own, the Rain Country as a neighboring country must be taken seriously.

Whether it was the demigod of the ninja world, Hanzo of the Salamander, or the Akatsuki organization, he had to personally find out about the situation in the Rain Country.

Beside a fast-flowing river, Uchiha Yuan glanced at the river. Suddenly, he raised his hand and waved it, and a kunai with a thin rope pierced into the rapids.

Then a big fish was pulled out of the water.

A moment later, a bonfire was lit on a meadow by the river. Uchiha Yuan sat on a rock and looked at the grilled fish on the fire.

After sprinkling some wild spices picked from the woods on the grilled fish, Uchiha Yuan used a kunai to cut off a piece of fish and put it into his mouth.

He had been in the Rain Country for a few days. If he hadn't been there, he wouldn't have known that the situation there was so bad and chaotic.

According to his observations and information gathered in the past few days, the Land of Rain, like the Land of Grass, has many ninja forces within its territory that have been fighting with the Rain Ninja for many years.

These factions include the Sand Village, the Rock Village, and the ninjas from the River Country and the Bird Country. Behind the River Country is the Wind Country, and behind the Bird Country is the Earth Country.

Uchiha Yuan thought: Hanzo of the Salamander has the title of demigod in the ninja world, which is enough to show how powerful he is. As a result, the Rain Country almost became the sixth country after the five major countries, but unfortunately it was suppressed in the end.

The five major powers will not allow the emergence of a sixth major power to shake their position.

No wonder the situation in the Land of Rain is so chaotic. Only such a Land of Rain can serve the interests of the five major countries and shatter Hanzo's fantasy of making the Land of Rain the sixth major country.

It's just that the people here suffer. The chaotic situation makes life difficult and supplies scarce. No wonder the Rain Ninjas invaded the Grass Country to plunder supplies.

It is no wonder that Sand Village and Iwagakure appear here. The Rain Country is located in the center of many countries and borders the Earth Country and the Wind Country. Once it becomes a big country, it will directly threaten these two countries.

However, the Rain Village has been able to fight against these ninja forces for many years, so there must be someone supporting them behind the scenes.

This supporter should be Konoha. On the one hand, it can make friends with Hanzo of the Salamander, and on the other hand, it can use the war in the Rain Country to continuously weaken the Earth Country and the Wind Country.

Some people died, but not completely...

Chapter 112 Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan

"Hey, what a nice smell."

"Xiao Nan, look, the grilled fish smells so good."

A man's voice interrupted Uchiha Yuan's thoughts. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw three figures, two men and one woman, standing not far away and looking at him.

The speaker was a young man with orange hair standing in the middle of the three people.

I really didn't expect to meet them.

Uchiha Yuan recognized the three people, they were Yahiko, Nagato and Konan.

He smiled slightly, extended his hand in invitation, and said, "If you don't mind, the three of you can enjoy it together. I can't finish such a big grilled fish by myself."

Nagato, who was standing on Yahiko's left, had his eyes covered by his bright red hair, and he exuded a feminine and aloof aura.

Konan, who was standing on the right side of Yahiko, looked at Uchiha Fubu with curiosity. Then she noticed the kunai in Uchiha Fubu's hand, and her expression changed.

"You're a ninja!"

Uchiha Yuan used a kunai to cut off another piece of fish meat and put it into his mouth to eat. Then he smiled and said: "Konoha Ninja, Uchiha Yuan."

Yahiko smiled brightly, patted Konan on the shoulder and said, "Konan, relax. This little brother is obviously not a bad person."

Uchiha Yuan looked at Yahiko, and a warm, sincere and genuine smile could be clearly seen on his face.

This made Uchiha Yuan feel favorable towards him, but he still said: "Just believe that I am not a bad person, okay? Now is a war time, and I am a stranger ninja."

Yahiko strode over and said with a smile: "Hahaha, my intuition tells me that you are not a bad person. Hello, my name is Yahiko."

Then Yahiko turned around and pointed at Konan and Nagato who had followed and introduced them: "This is Konan, this is Nagato."

Yahiko sat cross-legged opposite Uchiha Yuan, reaching out impatiently to tear off a piece of grilled fish.

As he took the fish in his mouth, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise. "Konan, Nagato, this fish is really delicious, you two should try it too."

With Yahiko's sharing, Nagato and Konan had no choice but to take a piece of fish meat that was as white and tender as oil.

Then, after putting the fish into their mouths, both of them showed surprised expressions.

Yahiko tore off a piece of fish and laughed, "Konan, that little brother's cooking skills are much better than yours."

Xiaonan rolled her eyes at Yahiko, then looked at Uchiha Yuan and asked, "How come you, a Konoha ninja, are in our Rain Country?"

Uchiha Yuan tore off a piece of fish and ate it while saying, "I am from the Land of Grass. The Land of Grass is our Konoha's ally, but recently the Rain Ninja has invaded the Land of Grass and plundered its property. Therefore, I was ordered to come to the Land of Rain to investigate the situation."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuan's words, Yahiko's originally bright and sunny smile quickly disappeared.

He said, “So that’s how it is.”

After a pause, he solemnly said to Uchiha Yuan: "Little brother, don't worry, the Rain Ninja will soon change and will not invade the Land of Grass again."

Uchiha Yuan showed a curious expression, "Are you three also Rain Ninja? Can you influence the will of the Rain Ninja leader, Hanzo of the Salamander?"

Yahiko stood up and said with a determined expression: "No, we are part of the Akatsuki organization."

"Akatsuki Organization?"

"Akatsuki is an organization that pursues peace. We want to change the current chaotic situation in Rain Country and work hard to bring peace to Rain Country. Everyone in Akatsuki has come together for this same ideal."

Uchiha Yuan nodded in praise and said, "For peace, it's a great ideal. There is indeed too much chaos in the ninja world."

Hearing this, Xiaonan's gaze towards Uchiha Yuan softened a little.

Yahiko smiled happily and said, "I believe peace is not far away.

Leader Hanzo is willing to negotiate with our Akatsuki organization for the peace of Rain Country. We are going to meet with Leader Hanzo on this trip.

I believe that soon, the Rain Country will change and the chaotic situation of war will end."

Uchiha Yuan looked at Yahiko's face with joy and longing for the coming peace, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Yahiko and his two companions went to meet Hanzo with the vision of peace, but what they faced was Hanzo's betrayal and attack.

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Yuan reminded him, "I believe that the goal of your Akatsuki organization is to pursue peace, but Hanzo may not believe it.

He is the leader of the Rain Village, who is known as a demigod, and the existence of the Akatsuki organization has threatened his rule.

I don't think he will tolerate the existence of Akatsuki. With his pride as a demigod in the ninja world, how could he be willing to compromise and negotiate with you?

I think his invitation to a meeting with you could be a trap."

Hearing this, Nagato and Konan both looked worried and looked towards Yahiko.

Yahiko smiled slightly, his face filled with hope for the future. He said with determination: "The philosophy of our Akatsuki organization is to change this chaotic country and build a bridge of hope to world peace through communication between people.

So as long as there is a glimmer of possibility for peace, we are willing to give it a try.

I believe that as long as Leader Hanzo is willing to communicate with us, there is hope for peace."

Uchiha Yuan was silent. Looking at Yahiko's expression, he knew that some things could not be stopped.

After a moment of silence, Uchiha Yuan said, "Yahiko, I wonder if you would like me to go with you."

Seeing the three people looking at him in confusion, Uchiha Yuan continued: “First of all, I want to meet the man who is known as the demigod of the ninja world.

Secondly, I also want to personally witness the meeting between your Akatsuki organization and Hanzo, because this meeting is likely to be a major event that will affect the ninja world, and I think I can't miss it."

"Haha, Yuan, welcome to join us."

Then Yahiko smiled and said, "By the way, we also want to ask you about Jiraiya-sensei's current situation. We haven't seen Jiraiya-sensei for many years. I wonder if he is okay."

When Konan heard Yahiko mention Jiraiya, she also smiled, a look of reminiscence appearing on her face.

She first explained to Uchiha Yuan, "The three of us are all disciples of Jiraiya Sensei. During the Second Ninja World War, Jiraiya Sensei took us in.

Without Jiraiya, perhaps the three of us would have died in a remote corner like the other children."

Uchiha Yuan smiled and said, "I see. I think Senior Jiraiya will be very happy to hear the news about you."

Yahiko said, "I really want to see Jiraiya-sensei again. After peace is restored, we must visit Konoha and see what the village that Jiraiya-sensei loves so much is like."

After a while, the bonfire by the river went out.

Uchiha Yuan and Yahiko left together. As they walked, he told the three of them what he knew about Jiraiya's recent situation.

Yahiko and the other two talked about the good memories they had when Jiraiya taught them.

Some people died, but not completely...

Chapter 113 Death of Yahiko

"What? You actually want to eat Jiraiya-sensei's summoning beast!"

Yahiko looked at Uchiha Fumi in surprise and said, "Teacher Jiraiya calls himself the Toad Sage. He really loves toads and frogs."

Four people were walking side by side on a dirt road in a dense forest.

Uchiha Yuan walked on the left side of Yahiko, while Konan and Nagato walked on the right side of Yahiko.

Xiaonan smiled faintly and said, "Master Jiraiya must be very angry. I still remember that before he left, he solemnly told us not to eat frogs anymore."

Before meeting Jiraiya, Yahiko and his two companions had been wandering around the Rain Country, often catching wild mice and frogs as food.

Uchiha Yuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "Senior Jiraiya is indeed very angry, but after all, Gamabunta looks delicious."

Yahiko scratched his head and said, "Konan, I remember that Jiraiya-sensei seemed to have mentioned Gamabunta."

At this time, Nagato said: "Gamabunta seems to be a big toad with a bad temper."

"Big toad? How big is it?"

Yahiko imagined Gamabunta's size in his mind, then looked at Uchiha Yuan and asked.
