At the entrance of Konoha Village, squads of ninja emerged like a dragon.

Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Hiashi were standing at the exit of the barrier.

Hyuga Hizashi activated his Byakugan and inspected each of the departing ninjas one by one, shouting orders incessantly.

"Hurry, hurry, jonin, take the light supplies and gather at the border first. chunin and genin, follow behind and don't overexert yourselves. Be careful not to fall behind."

"Intelligence personnel spread out. If you spot spies in an enemy village, immediately send a signal. Do not linger in battle."

"Go back and ask the medical team what happened. Our team is supposed to defend against Sunagakure. Why is there so little antidote?"

Uchiha Tonan arrived at the village entrance and smiled warmly at Hyuga Hiashi, saying, "Lord Hiashi, have we already started a war with Sunagakure?"

Hiashi Hyuga glanced at Tonan Uchiha.

Although the Hyuga and Uchiha clans have always been at odds.

However, this is in contrast to Uchiha Tonan's astonishing record.

Even Hiashi Hyuga's perpetually expressionless face couldn't help but soften into a slightly gentle smile as he said kindly:

"That's right. According to intelligence, Sunagakure and Iwagakure have formed an alliance, and their main forces are about to reach the border of the Land of Rain."

Their intention was to invade from Mount Kikyo, on the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire.

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said, "It seems that the Hyuga clan will be the commanders in this battle."

Hiashi Hyuga said in a deep voice, "As major clans of Konoha, the Hyuga and Ino-Shika-Cho should naturally step forward to the front line."

Hizashi was in charge of leading the defense against Sunagakure, while Shikaku was in charge of Iwagakure.

"Your Uchiha clan was assigned to guard the coastline and defend against Kirigakure the day before yesterday."

Uchiha Tonan's lips curled slightly; he wasn't surprised at all by Hiruzen Sarutobi's arrangement, and said calmly:

"I don't know who is in command of the battle lines in Kumogakure."

After all, the three legendary Sannin of Konoha were either dead or had fled, so Konoha only had a few candidates to take the lead.

Of course, the best choice is to choose yourself.

But the war has only just begun, and the outcome is uncertain.

Hiruzen Sarutobi must have been afraid that gaining a lot of military merit would threaten his position.

"The main ninja clans are the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan, led by the Jonin Minato Namikaze."

He will tell you the specifics after you meet with the Hokage.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tonan nodded thoughtfully and said, "Please go ahead with your work."

After saying that, he stepped into the barrier and headed towards the Hokage Building.

Hyuga Hizashi, who was in charge of the inspection, noticed that Hyuga Hiashi was staring intently at Uchiha Tonan's back, so he walked over and asked in a deep voice:

"Clan leader, you seem to value that Uchiha brat quite a bit."

Hiashi Hyuga narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"Little devil? I'm afraid you won't dare call him that after the war ends."

Don't you think he looks a lot like someone?

Hyuga Hizashi raised his head upon hearing this, gazing at Uchiha Tonan's retreating figure.

The Byakugan's spying senses were instantly detected by Uchiha Tonan.

Uchiha Tonan immediately stopped, but did not turn around.

Hyuga Hizashi felt a ripple in the scenery before him, and then the whole world went dark.

The only thing left was a pair of scarlet Sharingan eyes, slowly rotating with three tomoe.

However, Uchiha Tonan used genjutsu to block Hyuga Hizashi's Byakugan perception.

Hyuga Hizashi's face showed a look of horror, and he quickly looked away.

Hyuga Hizashi's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He lowered his head and whispered:

"Such terrifying strength, he reminds me a lot of Orochimaru..."

Hiashi Hyuga nodded, then shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know either, who looks like whom."

In front of the Hokage Building.

Hiruzen Sarutobi is giving a pre-battle speech to this group of troops who are about to go into battle.

"Always remember the Will of Fire; the battlefield lies ahead of you."

Behind you are your family and partners.

They're all waiting for you in the village..."

Suddenly, there was a slight commotion at the back of the group.

The crowd spontaneously parted to make way, and the ninjas bowed their heads respectfully, saying:

"Lord Tunan."

"Lord Tunan."

.......

Uchiha Tonan smiled and nodded to each of them.

He walked unhurriedly to the front of the group and looked up at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was wearing a divine robe.

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath, a kind smile appearing on his face, and said:

"Tunan, you're back."

Facing Hiruzen Sarutobi, Uchiha Tonan showed no respect whatsoever, and said indifferently:

"I wonder how the Hokage will arrange things for me in this war."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was slightly annoyed by Uchiha Tonan's attitude, but he could only suppress it and said in a deep voice:

"The troops from Sunagakure and Iwagakure have assembled at the border of the Land of Rain, preparing to break through the Land of Rain and invade the Land of Fire in one fell swoop."

The pressure is greatest on that battlefield.

Your abilities are evident to all, which is why I've assigned you to Shikaku's command.

Uchiha Tonan nodded thoughtfully and said, "So I wasn't going to the same battlefield as my clansmen."

Hiruzen Sarutobi narrowed his eyes slightly and said meaningfully, "With great power comes great responsibility."

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said, "I understand, but I need to spend a day preparing first."

"The situation is urgent, I hope you will not delay the war."

Hiruzen Sarutobi feigned an imposing demeanor, taking the opportunity to test and probe Uchiha Tonan.

However, under such circumstances, Uchiha Tonan was fearless and naturally would not allow Sarutobi Hiruzen to ride roughshod over him.

His expression immediately turned cold, and he stared silently at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The two stared at each other for a long time.

In the end, for the sake of the bigger picture, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to back down and give Uchiha Tonan a way out.

"Take care of your personal matters as soon as possible. Don't hesitate to tell me if you need anything."

Uchiha Tonan chuckled and said, "No need to trouble the Hokage, it's just a small matter."

After saying that, he turned and walked away into the distance.

Before long, Uchiha Tonan arrived at Kushina's residence.

As the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Kushina's residence was no less impressive than that of the Hatake family.

Uchiha Tonan remembers that in the original story, Naruto's house was the small two-story house that Minato Namikaze lived in.

It seems that old man Hiruzen Sarutobi has also confiscated someone else's large courtyard.

Uchiha Tonan gently knocked on the door.

Soon, Kushina arrived at the door carrying Kotobuki and opened it.

The moment Kushina saw Uchiha Tonan, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

He was about to greet her, but the little boy in his arms beat him to it.

"Baba!"

Xiao Yanbu was perhaps too excited, as her voice was slightly shrill.

With his arms outstretched and his legs kicking, he seemed to want Uchiha Tonan to hug him.

Uchiha Tunan's face was full of doting affection as he gently rubbed Kotobuki's head, then looked at Kushina and said:

"Kushina-senpai, have Minato-sensei and the others already set off?"

Kushina nodded and said:

"Yes, they left yesterday, and Kakashi and the others went with them."

"Come in and talk."

Uchiha Tonan shook his head and said, "No, I'll just say a few words and then leave. I'm heading to the battlefield soon."

While I'm away, please look after the welfare home.

Kushina patted her chest and said, "No problem."

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly, took out a storage scroll from his ninja tool pouch, and handed it to Kushina, saying:

"Take this money. If there are any orphans or elderly people, arrange for them to be admitted to a welfare institution as soon as possible."

Kushina took the scroll, looking puzzled, and asked, "This is...?"

Uchiha Tonan adjusted his glasses and said, "This is 500,000 Singapore dollars, that should be enough."

Upon hearing this, Kushina's eyes widened immediately, and she exclaimed, "That's equivalent to five billion...!"

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said, "It was a reward given to me by the Daimyo."

"Oh right, I heard you saved Daming."
