Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 128 Drawbacks

Within the Land of Fire.

Near the Cat Country, in an open space on the edge of the vacant area.

A huge figure swept past, skimming the ground.

As a huge cloud of smoke dissipated, only a small figure remained, falling from the sky due to inertia.

The figure was none other than Toshiro, who stood steadily on the ground after dispelling the summoning jutsu.

He couldn't help but sigh, "The air force really has an advantage!" It took them nearly four days to reach the Island of Oblivion, including both land and sea routes.

Riding this large bird at breakneck speed, it took him less than half a day, making him realize that the advantage of air travel was truly undeniable.

Having successfully retrieved the items entrusted to him by the young clan leader from Granny Cat, Toshiro, carrying a backpack full of belongings, embarked on his journey home.

He plans to travel the rest of the journey on foot, and keeping a low profile is still quite necessary.

And the journey isn't very long either.

After a hurried journey, Toshiro finally returned to Konoha before sunset. Without any further delay, he knocked on the door of Fugaku Uchiha's office.

When Fugaku Uchiha saw Toshiro again, he was shocked. He hadn't expected that this junior of the clan would change so much in just one month.

Compared to a month ago, she looks like a completely different person.

His entire body turned pitch black, and his face was covered with rough cracks from the sea breeze.

Fortunately, the person's overall mental state was quite good; otherwise, he would have suspected that the other person had gone to the inland areas of the Land of Wind for a special mission.

"Fugaku-senpai, there's something else I feel I need to report to you!"

After handing over the supplies, Toshiro didn't leave Fugaku's office immediately, but hesitated for a moment.

However, after careful consideration, Toshiro decided to have a proper conversation with the other party.

"Oh! Is there anything else I don't know?"

"Or did you go out to find a spirit beast and have some unexpected adventure..."

Seeing this, Fugaku asked with amusement.

Although he didn't stop the other party from going out to find a spirit beast, it was only because of his uncle's sake. Otherwise, how could he have agreed to let the other party leave the village for a month at this crucial moment?

A good summoning beast is hard to find. Given the situation of the Uchiha clan, an ordinary summoning beast can only play a very limited role.

Contracts like those for the three great séance sites are now monopolized by the three disciples of the Third Hokage, leaving the Uchiha clan virtually excluded.

"During my recent trip, I discovered a very peculiar place, inhabited by numerous giant summoned beasts..."

As he spoke, Toshiro emphasized the word "giant".

After much deliberation, he decided to reveal the situation of the Forgotten Island to his family.

Anyway, this island will be discovered eventually. The spirit beasts on the island will be used as resources for war by these people.

Since that's the case, it's better to benefit one's own family than others. Over the years, the family has been relatively considerate of its members, not sending them to the battlefield immediately.

Since that's the case, Uchiha Toshiro wouldn't hesitate to reciprocate. After all, a large part of the reason why those older clan elders would go to the battlefield without hesitation was for the sake of them, the younger generation.

"Oh! A giant summoning beast?"

Hearing Toshiro's explanation, Fugaku Uchiha became somewhat curious. After all, a typical summoning beast that grows to four or five meters tall is considered enormous.

Just how big is the "giant" that Toshiro mentioned?

"Excuse me!"

Without further ado, Toshiro activated his Sharingan.

Seeing that the other party did not refuse, he cast an illusion spell on them.

This is a special way of communicating among Uchiha clan members, a technique that can only be used by clan members who have awakened the Sharingan.

It requires a very high level of skill in illusion magic, which is something that most clansmen who have only recently awakened their eyes simply cannot achieve.

The effect is that you can use illusion to directly present the information you want to express into the other person's mind.

"This is……"

Upon seeing the scene presented by Toshiro, Fugaku Uchiha was also somewhat unsettled.

If the island is truly as Toshiro portrays it, it would be a great thing for the village and the family.

"If that's really the case... you're the one who discovered this place, Toshiro. What are your thoughts on that?"

Upon seeing the composed and unperturbed Toshiro on the other side, Fugaku Uchiha became somewhat curious.

I never expected that my simple act of going with the flow would result in such a big surprise from the other party.

Judging from the images shown by Toshiro, the summoning beasts on this island are all relatively large in size.

Although it couldn't turn the tide of the battle, it was still a significant boost to the strength of the Konoha ninjas.

"Uh~"

Without any preparation, Toshiro was suddenly asked an unexpected question, and he was momentarily caught off guard.

However, he quickly stated frankly, "As far as I know, clan ninjas, because of the Sharingan, often face attacks from two or more opponents!"

"Having these summoned beasts would provide more options for dealing with situations like this, which would be quite beneficial in reducing casualties among our people..."

Although somewhat surprised, Toshiro still answered Fugaku Uchiha's question very well.

The situation raised by Toshiro is also one of the main reasons for the casualties among the clan's ninjas.

The name of the Uchiha clan, along with the prestige of the Sharingan, brought glory to its members, but also some side effects.

In the ninja world, any ninja with a modicum of knowledge knows that when dealing with an Uchiha who has awakened the Sharingan, if you're alone, you must run away.

Only when there are two people, one attracting attention from the front while the other launches a sneak attack from behind, can you have a chance of winning.

In war, it is almost impossible to resolve a battle one-on-one.

Most people are basically moving with the main group, so how could you possibly get a chance for a one-on-one fight...

"Hmm! Your idea is excellent!"

"I remember you seem to be quite interested in ninjutsu and secret techniques. Here's what we'll do: I'll make arrangements with the shrine tonight, and tomorrow you can retrieve some materials from the secret room that interest you..."
