Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Immediately, Liao Wu rode his cat out into the fray again, shouting towards the allied forces on the opposite bank of the river: "Monkey—"

The Third Hokage stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing?"

Liao Wu calculated, "Right now we have one win and one loss, neither of us is at a disadvantage. This third match will be a battle to see who wins."

"The winner will dominate everything the loser does."

"However, my cats are hungry; it's mealtime. Let's eat first, then we can fight!"

Liao Wu had his cats hang up signs to signal a ceasefire to the enemy.

Then I got the cat army busy making cat food!

"..."

The Allied Ninjas were stunned for a few seconds, unsure of what to say.

They've even started a fire to make cat food; they really don't take them seriously.

Itachi asked Shisui, "Is this the cruel battlefield?"

Shisui shook his head: "No, this is not it. The war of ninjas does not involve two armies facing each other. Our battle is hidden in the shadows."

"Stealths weaknesses in silence, and when the opportunity arises, strikes like a viper emerging from its hole or an owl swooping down on its prey, killing with a single blow."

Yashiro crossed his arms and said to Itachi, "Be thankful, this is the most outrageous war I've ever seen, and also the luckiest."

"Neither side wants to fight; it all depends on the attitude of the higher-ups."

The Third Hokage took off his pipe, while Shikaku in the command center was still fretting about how to find an opportunity to infiltrate the Land of Rain.

And here comes the opportunity!

While the people across the street were eating, the Third Hokage could lead his elite ninjas to infiltrate the Land of Rain.

Shikaku has already urged the Third Hokage to seize the opportunity.

The Third Hokage instructed, "Since they're already eating, let's start a fire and cook too! Let's fill our men's stomachs."

"We'll avoid fighting if we can avoid it. We're not here to fight head-on, but to unite and deter the enemy."

Now that World War III is coming to an end, anti-war sentiment is high among the five major powers, and the villages are in a time to conserve their strength.

War should be avoided if possible, and if it can be resolved using the power of elite ninjas, ordinary ninjas should be involved as much as possible.

Soon, the Allied Ninja Army also started cooking fires along with Hakimi's army on the other side.

Meanwhile, the Third Hokage secretly led elite ninjas to infiltrate the Land of Rain via a detour.

Minato, Jiraiya, Fukasaku, Shima, Kakuzu, Hiruko, Shinku, Hizashi...

Ninjas with Kage-level stats or elite Jonin would follow the Third Hokage.

As he was leaving, the Third Hokage took Mifune's hand and said, "Lord Mifune, the other side isn't so reckless as to think they can stop our Allied Shinobi Forces by sending just a bunch of cats."

"They must have another plan."

"Lord Mifune, please be careful!"

Mifune nodded: "Don't worry, I will lead the allied forces to retreat if anything happens."

The Third Hokage nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you!"

Then the Third Hokage took one last look in the direction of the Allied Forces' Konoha.

I saw Asuma, as well as Ebisu, Kai, Kurenai, Yugao, Hayate, Namiashi Raido, Yamashiro Aoba... these new generation members.

The Third Hokage took one last drag of his cigarette. He didn't know if he would ever return.

But—I can't not go.

The Third Hokage extinguished the cigarette, then activated the Body Flicker Technique, leading Jiraiya and the others into the Land of Rain.

Mifune and Dai watched the Third Hokage and other elites depart before taking on the responsibility of leading the Allied Forces.

Mifune said to Dai, "Dai, I've heard of your great name. You are a pure taijutsu ninja and once defeated the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist single-handedly."

The Land of Iron is not a closed country, and the samurai are also keeping up with the times and keeping pace with the ninjas.

Mifune had heard of a pure taijutsu ninja from Konoha who remained a genin his entire life, but in the end, he suddenly unleashed his power and single-handedly destroyed the entire organization of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist during the Third Shinobi World War.

I've only heard rumors, but I haven't found out exactly who it is. Even the people of Konoha don't know much about it, let alone people from other countries.

It was only after the Allied Shinobi Forces were established that Mifune learned about Dai's story.

Dai's story is like that of a warrior who lives in seclusion, quietly biding his time and honing his skills.

While Sakumo, the Three Ninjas, and others were shining brightly and showing their talents, Dai patiently endured loneliness and quietly accumulated experience.

When the time is right, he will make a name for himself and his fame will spread far and wide.

It's a pity that such a person is a waste for ninjas who value secrecy.

If Dai were from the Land of Iron, Mifune would definitely publicize Dai's story extensively.

All warriors of the Iron Kingdom must learn from Comrade Dai.

Uphold integrity and practice steadfastness, quietly accumulate strength, avoid ostentation, and patiently await the moment when accumulated knowledge and experience will yield a powerful breakthrough.

"Lord Mifune, you're exaggerating!"

Dai scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

Dai felt that being summoned from the pure land was not a stain on her youth.

At least he has gained the recognition of many important figures.

A general of such stature as Mifune would probably never have even met Dai during his lifetime.

I never expected to receive such high praise from him.

Youth needs recognition; a word of affirmation or praise can provide the confidence to support one's entire youth.

Dai is a person who lacks recognition.

Mifune patted Dai on the shoulder: "No, you are a pure human being. If you were still alive, I would definitely dig you up and bring you to the Land of Iron, and bestow upon you the rank of general."

"And White Fang, you are all pure people. The ninja's ideals are a bit extreme. You are more suited to the samurai's code of conduct."

The Third Hokage had barely left when Mifune was already thinking about poaching people.

Mifune spouts auspicious words to appease the ghosts, while Dai is full of embarrassment.

He wasn't actually that humble; if he could pass the Chunin Exams, he would have been a Chunin long ago.

They can take on more high-level commissions and earn more money to support their families.

Mifune pointed to a boy with a watermelon-shaped haircut who was starting a fire to cook: "Dai, isn't that your son, Matt Kai?"

Dai turned to look at Kai, who treated cooking as a form of spiritual practice and was responsible for feeding hundreds of people, and nodded: "Yes, that's my son Kai. He inherited my youth."

"I'm fighting for him!"

Mifune nodded: "Dai, I can see that. Guy is also a pure taijutsu ninja. I suggest he come and develop his skills in our Land of Iron."

"I can take him as my disciple and make him a general of the Land of Iron in the future!"

Dai was somewhat flattered. Mifune's high regard for Kai meant that he recognized the youth of the father and son.

In Konoha, Dai was always looked down upon. He was not only a genin, but also a pure taijutsu ninja, and only had the opportunity to show his skills after his death.

Judging from Kai's appearance, although he was lucky enough to become a Chunin, the people around him just thought he was a stupid kappa and left him to handle the food.

Dai realized that Kai's talent had not yet been recognized by others; in their eyes, he was still just a strangely dressed kappa.

Now that Kai is so highly regarded by Mifune and has the opportunity to inherit the position of admiral, how could Dai not be excited?

Although the Land of Iron is a small country, it can be considered a strong country among small countries.

Taking control of the military in this country is undoubtedly a very honorable thing.

But Dai didn't make the decision for Kai on his own: "It depends on Kai's decision. He values ​​his partners and is definitely not the kind of person who would abandon his bonds for his own interests."

Mifune could tell from Kai's youthful and caring demeanor that Kai wasn't someone who cared about personal glory.

He insisted, "It's alright. I promise that as long as Kai comes to the Land of Iron to develop his career, I will definitely give him a position that matches his abilities."

"Lord Mifune, I truly don't know how to thank you enough!"

Dai was so excited that he knelt down in front of Mifune, affirmed by Mifune's attitude of valuing and recognizing him and Kai.

Dai finally couldn't hold back her tears!

Dai felt that all her efforts were worthwhile.

Mifune quickly helped Dai up: "Dai, there's no need to demean yourself like this. You are a father greater than me!"
