Naruto: Building the Strongest Uchiha Starting with Gacha Pulls

Chapter 189 The Three-Tomoe Mikoto

If the two sides really fight to the very end, the Hidden Cloud Village will definitely lose. It would be a good result if the ninja army in the fortress were to be routed, and it is not impossible for them to be completely wiped out.

The father and son duo, the Third Raikage and the Fourth Raikage A, were almost maxed out in defense and speed, and they could hardly keep them in check. In the end, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

Ultimately, the gains and losses of a single city or place are important, especially in a strategically vital location like Asuka Fortress, but they are not enough for both sides to commit everything at this point.

This night raid ultimately ended with Konoha capturing Asuka Fortress and securing victory.

After a six-month tug-of-war in the Land of Hot Water, Konoha finally achieved a new, phased victory.

Judging from the losses alone, they did not suffer too many casualties, which can undoubtedly be touted as a great victory.

Although they have only recovered to the situation of a year ago in terms of the battle lines alone, Konoha is actually in a better position now than it was two years ago.

Only by occupying this strategic location as a springboard can we have room to continue advancing.

Back then, Konoha was engaged in wars on all sides, and the forces that could be committed to the war were relatively limited. Even with the Third Hokage leading Danzo and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, they could only occupy this area and maintain strategic pressure on Kumogakure, but they always lacked enough power to go further.

However, the pressure Konoha faces in the direction of the Land of Rain has been greatly reduced. As long as they can secure this strategic location, they will have the opportunity to concentrate their forces at any time and turn strategic pressure into a real advantage.

The combination of Uchiha Gen and Orochimaru could play a role on the battlefield that was no less significant than that of Hiruzen Sarutobi, one of the top fighters of the time who stood on the same level as the Third Raikage. In fact, because they were two people, they could play an even greater role. Orochimaru's talent in strategic planning and tactical command was also greater than that of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The latter was the Hokage successor personally trained by Tobirama Senju. His abilities in this area were not bad, and could be described as excellent. He also performed admirably in this war. However, Orochimaru's ability to command the army in battle amazed many people. He had the style of turning war command into an art, much like an ancient general.

The former can be called a good general, while the latter has the potential to be a famous general. He has a more stable grasp of the rhythm of war and can rely on absolute rationality to accurately exert every bit of the team's strength.

The war between Konoha and Kumogakure remains deadlocked, but Konoha has shifted from defense to offense and regained the initiative.

Although the battle to retake the fortress ended quickly and Miyo's losses were not significant, some people were still injured or killed.

Fortunately, thanks to the specially made soldier rations, none of the people that Gen Uchiha cared about died.

There have even been some new changes.

"If it weren't for the soldier's ration pills you gave me, I'm afraid I would have perished on the battlefield this time as well."

Mikoto Uchiha, her clothes stained with blood, leaned against a reclining chair in the medical ward, her hands outstretched in a gesture to cooperate with Gen Uchiha's treatment.

What is noteworthy is that on her beautiful face, there are three tomoe slowly rotating around her eyes.

This is because her Sharingan with three tomoe has just awakened, and she is not yet able to control the dissipation of her eye power.

In life-or-death situations, intense emotional fluctuations can lead to advancements in the Sharingan, a relatively common occurrence within the Uchiha clan. However, this becomes increasingly rare as one progresses.

Simply put, being a ninja is a profession where the stronger you are, the more life-and-death situations you experience. When facing the imminent threat of death, the more mature and experienced you are, the calmer you tend to be, and the less emotional fluctuations you experience.

This is precisely why the Uchiha clan, who are in their adolescence, often experience the most rapid awakening and improvement of their Sharingan, as they have limited experience and are physiologically most susceptible to emotional fluctuations.

When faced with the same situation, a middle-aged Uchiha who has been tempered by life-and-death battles and experienced the ups and downs of life for more than 20 years, and a young Uchiha who has only been in the game for a few years, the latter's emotions are more likely to fluctuate violently, leading to an upgrade of his Sharingan.

Uchiha Mikoto is sixteen years old, a few months away from her seventeenth birthday, and is currently in that stage.

"It's fortunate that you used this soldier's ration pill to maintain your condition; otherwise, even if you had survived, this injury would have been very troublesome."

Gen Uchiha withdrew his hand from the Healing Palm Technique and looked into Mikoto's eyes.

In the original timeline, Mikoto also awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan and lived until the night of the clan's extermination.

However, the timeline has already changed countless times because of her arrival. Although Uchiha Mikoto is quite strong, it is not certain that she can protect herself on the battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War.

Jonin were an important high-level combat force in the Fourth Shinobi World War, but on the battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War, not to mention Jonin, even Kage would die in battle.

Of the second-generation Kage of the major ninja villages, all except for the Kazekage Shamon died on the battlefield.

However, with these specially made soldier pills, Uchiha Mikoto's survival ability can still be guaranteed as long as she avoids those top-tier powerhouses.

Her talent is actually quite high. Over such a long period of time, she has already mastered her second chakra nature transformation. With the added boost to her basic abilities from the double-tomoe Sharingan, her combat power is no less than that of other Jonin.

Compared to Kakashi and the legendary Sannin of Konoha, who became Jonin before the age of fifteen, she was indeed a step behind. However, such geniuses are not produced every year, and she could already be considered a top-tier genius.

Now that she has awakened her three-tomoe Sharingan and possesses two chakra nature transformations, in terms of basic stats, Mikoto is actually no worse than some elite Jonin.

If she can become more familiar with the Sharingan's power and master its usage, Mikoto Uchiha's strength can rise another half level. With the addition of specially made soldier pills, as long as she doesn't encounter Kage-level powerhouses or get surrounded by a large group, she can still ensure basic safety.

"That Cloud Village Jonin was indeed very strong, but at least I was the one who won in the end—"

Uchiha Mikoto suddenly paused, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back, looking as if she had something on her mind.

"What's wrong, Mikoto? Is there something you want to say?"

Looking at Mikoto's expression, Gen Uchiha asked softly.

"Yuan—I've also awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan now, so I should be able to help you soon and have the power to stand behind you and support you, right?"
