Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

"It's certain that the Fourth Hokage was hesitant, but it's also impossible for him to directly choose to go to war with Kumogakure for the sake of the Hyuga. What did Kakashi say? Kakashi only said that the Fourth Hokage informed Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, to return to the village, and he didn't say anything else."

Yun stood up and looked out the window at Konoha Village: "However, Kakashi's words have caused the Fourth Hokage to take half of what should have been our favor. From today onwards, the only ones who can truly obey the Third Hokage's orders are probably his direct ANBU and the Sarutobi and Shimura clans."

"No, his direct subordinates in the Anbu will also be reduced by half. Because of the scene when Danzo was killed, and Orochimaru's defection incident, his approval rating is already low."

Fourth generation?

Zhi Shui frowned, looking somewhat serious.

Yun chuckled and patted him on the shoulder: "No need to worry. From the very beginning, the Uchiha have entered the clan circle. With this stance, the Uchiha will no longer be the same Uchiha as before."

"Whether it's the Fourth Hokage, the Third Hokage, or those two old advisors, they would all have reservations if they wanted to take action against Uchiha again."

As he spoke, Yun stood up and picked up the equipment he had prepared: "If the war breaks out, you need to ask the Fourth Lord for permission to help me, and use that as an excuse to reset the garrison!"

Zhi Shui nodded: "Don't worry, I'll remember."

"Shh!"

Yun, having instantly left the guard unit, headed straight for the gates of Konoha. He had already said goodbye to his family after returning from Hyuga.

Although her mother was unaware that her mission could lead to war at any moment, Yun knew very well that her mother had difficulty sleeping at night whenever she was on a mission.

This is what Quan told himself, and he always made sure to pay attention to his safety when carrying out missions.

……

"Shh!"

The cloud appeared at the gates of Konoha and reported to the gatekeeper. Then Kakashi arrived with two Cloud Village ninjas.

After registering, the group left Konoha Village.

Yun glanced at the two people in front of him and whispered to Kakashi, "Where are the bodies?"

Kakashi gestured to the two people in front of him and replied in a low voice, "They sealed it with a sealing scroll. After what happened last night, the two of them immediately sent a message to Kumogakure."

"Then, Kumogakure used the Heavenly Delivery Technique to send a statement to Konoha, which was then delivered to the teacher by these two."

Yun asked, "What statement?"

Kakashi replied, "Using the pretext of Cloud Village's secrets, order Konoha to immediately return the bodies of the Cloud Village ninjas killed by Hyuga Hiashi, and prohibit Konoha from using secret techniques to probe the memories of Cloud Village ninjas."

"The scroll states that two other ninjas from Kumogakure witnessed the head of the Hyuga clan kill a Kumogakure envoy during a verbal altercation. Therefore, Kumogakure demands that Konoha hand over Hyuga Hiashi."

"laugh!"

Yun scoffed, "Before it even starts, they've already blocked the path to proving their innocence. Doesn't that mean whatever those two say is law?"

"If they say that the Hokage killed the Cloud Village envoy, wouldn't the Hokage have to pay with his life? That's outrageous."

Kakashi sighed, "That's why our teacher made this series of plans... After all, the Cloud Village's purpose is already quite clear, and we've already made our decision..."

The moment the words were spoken, the two Cloud Village ninjas in front stopped in their tracks.

One of them turned around and looked angrily at Kakashi and Yun: "The three of us came to form an alliance with Konoha on behalf of Kumogakure, but our comrade was killed by the head of the Hyuga clan of Konoha!"

Another person said with grief and indignation, "If Konoha doesn't give Kumogakure an explanation and hand over Hyuga Hiashi, the head of the Hyuga clan, then there's no point in mentioning the alliance anymore! And the Raikage will definitely take revenge."

Uh……

Yun rubbed his forehead, then stared at the two of them and said, "You know very well what the specifics of this matter are, so there's no need to pretend to be all grief and indignation."

"Konoha has never been afraid of war. But you two, if you keep talking like this, I might just kill you here first. Anyway, once war breaks out, the death of two more of you won't be a big deal."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two people in front of him looked at each other in bewilderment.

Then one of them smiled and said, "In any case... if Konoha doesn't want war, then it must pay the price."

The other nodded and smiled, "And if you're sure you want to fight, Lord Raikage and Lord Bee will destroy your entire Hidden Leaf Village."

"Ha ha……"

Yun chuckled dryly, looking at the two of them speechlessly. They were really like toads yawning, with such big mouths.

Even if Killer Bee were here, he wouldn't dare to say anything about destroying Konoha. Does he really think Konoha is made of mud?

That's utterly idiotic.

Kakashi, rolling his dead fish eyes, echoed, "Those who start wars lightly will not have a good outcome. Between Kumogakure and Konoha, it's really uncertain who will win and who will lose."

"As the younger generation, please do not underestimate Konoha, and even more so, do not underestimate war."

The Cloud Village ninja scoffed, "Whatever. I hope you'll still have the courage to say such things when you meet the Raikage."

After saying that, the two set off again, with Kakashi and Yun exchanging a glance and following behind.

Along the way, sounds kept coming from the woods on both sides, and dark shadows moved through them.

Kakashi explained, "The frontline reconnaissance team is composed of the Third Hokage and the teacher's direct subordinates. Since they have just left the village, they did not conceal their whereabouts in order to reach the border as quickly as possible."

Yun asked in a low voice, "You arranged it so quickly, in just one night."

Kakashi shook his head: "It's not just the Anbu. Ever since the Hyuga clan head explained the situation to the teacher yesterday, the messenger hawk has already set off for the border troops to convey the mission of advancing to the assembly and alert."

"Some of the village's Jonin squads were also dispatched to the border last night. After all, once the war starts, time will be everything."

Yun nodded. As expected of someone who had experienced war, his deployment and response were very quick.

……

Chapter 92: The War Begins

Three days later.

Just before reaching the border, a messenger eagle landed in front of Kakashi.

Kakashi took out the intelligence report, glanced at it, and said, "Three days ago, a reconnaissance team from the border forces discovered that Kumogakure has already used the lands of Frost and Hot Springs as a route."

Three days ago?

Yun twitched the corner of his mouth. Three days ago, Yunyin had just learned the news and had already traveled through the Land of Frost and the Land of Hot Water to reach the border of the Land of Fire.

In this situation, it's clear that Yunyin would need to set off three days in advance to achieve this.

If it wasn't premeditated, could it be that they had the ability to predict the future?

Kakashi released the communication hawk. Although it was already late at night, the two Cloud Village ninjas who were eager to get going were clearly not going to rest.

"Should we follow them? They probably want us to meet exhausted."

Yun nodded slightly, "No matter what, these two need to see them return to the Cloud Hidden team with their own eyes. As for their purpose, it would be good to discuss it tonight."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two quickened their pace and followed the Cloud Village ninja ahead.

……

"Shh..."

At the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Hot Water, a large bridge connects the two countries.

Meanwhile, Yun and Kakashi landed on the bridgehead on the Fire Country side.

In the woods behind them, border troops and the already arrived secret agents were already lying in ambush.

Meanwhile, the two Cloud Village ninjas who had been following them quickly crossed the bridge and arrived in front of the Cloud Village ninjas led by Killer Bee.

"Master, mission accomplished."

He recounted the entire mission in a low voice, then took out the sealing scroll. After a puff of smoke, the dead Cloud Village envoy appeared in front of Killer Bee.

Killer Bee looked at the already cold corpse, and instead of rapping, he murmured in a low voice, "Was it worth it at the cost of sacrifice?"

Mabui stepped forward and whispered, "This is the fate of a ninja. In order for the village to have a bloodline limit like the Byakugan in future wars, his death will be remembered by the village."

Samui, standing behind him, reminded him, "They're here. From now on, Lord Bi doesn't need to show up. Mabuyi and I will negotiate with them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kakashi and Yun had already reached the center of the bridge.

Mabui looked at the two and asked, "It seems that Konoha has failed to meet the Raikage's request. So, may I consider this a provocation by Konoha against Kumogakure?"

Kakashi shook his head slightly: "The Hokage has already recounted the whole story in the message. If Hiashi hadn't tried to kidnap the Hyuga clan's heir first, he wouldn't have made a move."

"And although his injuries appeared to be caused by Gentle Fist, the Hyuga clan head only struck empty-handed, and he died instantly."

"In this situation, we have to consider whether Yunyin had planned this all along."

Mabui also shook her head: "I don't understand what you're saying. The Hidden Cloud Village has always maintained peace, and it is on this basis that it has taken the initiative to send a signal to Konoha to form an alliance."

"However, the ninja representing the Hidden Clouds who went to Konoha this time was killed by the head of the Hyuga clan in Konoha because of just two words."

"Now that you refuse to hand over the murderer, I have reason to believe that Konoha is provoking Kumogakure, and may even be willing to start a war!"

Kakashi awkwardly prepared to continue his rebuttal, but Yun reached out and stopped him.

Then, Yun stepped forward and looked at Mabuyi, saying, "Let Kirabi come out. There's no need to continue discussing the issues that we all know the answers to."

As soon as he finished speaking, Killer Bee, who had been blocked by Samui in the Hidden Cloud Village, stepped out.

Yun looked at him and smiled, "You all know very well what exactly happened."

"By the way, tell me your plans. If Kumogakure is truly this despicable and shameless, then we will accept the challenge. Konoha has never feared war!"

After he finished speaking, Killer Bee remained silent for a long time.

A gentle breeze stirred on the bridge, and then Killer Bee slightly raised his head and gestured:

"Despicable and shameless, that's not Yunyin!"

Just for the sake of the village, they still have to make sacrifices!

Uchiha brats are not afraid of war!

There's no room for compromise, only victory or defeat! Yeah!

After listening to the series of raps, Yun understood that Konoha had not compromised to let Killer Bee escape his inner dissatisfaction, but he was also not afraid of war.

At this moment, Samui, who was behind him, stepped forward and looked at Yun and Kakashi. Sensing their presence, he looked into the forest and said, "Lord Raikage has ordered that if Konoha does not hand over Hyuga Hiashi, the murderer of the Cloud Village envoy, within a week, then war will break out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the group from Yunyin disappeared in an instant.

Kirabi glanced at the cloud one last time and gave it a thumbs up.

……

"A week? Send the intelligence back to Konoha. Once it's confirmed that Konoha won't compromise, then there won't be a week. The war has already begun!"
