"From now on, we will not only no longer have to worry about financial problems, but we will also no longer be constrained by those princes and nobles."
"This is all thanks to you. Even I, the Raikage, am a little ashamed of myself."
During this time, they have completely taken control of the entire Land of Lightning.
Not only did they set up similar police force-like agencies in various places, but they also built roads and bridges, winning widespread praise.
He had been prepared to go all in, but things hadn't gone as smoothly as he had hoped.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yuzuru shook his head: "A coup is only called a coup if it fails; it's a revolution if it succeeds!"
"This glory will not be enjoyed alone; it belongs to all of us."
Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, the Third Raikage laughed even more heartily.
The best decision he ever made was accepting the Uchiha clan.
Yuzuru and he are such a perfect match.
"Lord Raikage!" Azabu Makoto rushed in, and upon seeing Uchiha Yuzuru, he bowed again, "Lord Yuzuru."
The Third Raikage asked curiously, "Azabu Shin, you look flustered, did something happen?"
Masashi said in a deep voice, "Lord Raikage, the 10,000-strong allied ninja force composed of Konoha, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure has set off and will likely approach the border of our Land of Lightning soon."
"I'd like to ask what you plan to do."
Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage and Uchiha Yuzuru exchanged a glance and then laughed simultaneously.
"Yuzuru, I feel like we're on the same page again. Why don't you talk to Azabu Makoto about it?"
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded and said with a smile, "If they come, we'll fight them."
"They're just a mere ten thousand ninja allies; the advantage is on my side!"
Chapter 68 War begins!
A huge open space, with a massive platform tens of meters high standing in front of it.
Uchiha Yuzuru and the Third Raikage stood at the very front.
The wind whipped their clothes around their necks, and the two stood side by side with their arms crossed over their chests.
Below are neatly arranged Cloud Ninja.
Everyone stood quietly in place, without making a sound. The headbands on the heads of the Cloud Ninjas gathered into a silver torrent in the sunlight.
Opposite them was the Allied Shinobi Forces, composed of Konoha, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure.
The two sides were only a kilometer apart, facing each other in a tense standoff, the air thick with a sense of impending doom.
Danzo Shimura stood at the forefront of the Allied Shinobi Forces, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
So many people had to follow his orders and wait for his next command.
This feeling……
Absolutely captivating!
Looking across the entire ninja world, who else could command the allied ninja forces of four ninja villages like him?
Even Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha back then didn't have the honor he has now!
After today's battle, his fame will surely spread throughout the ninja world!
Thinking of this, Danzo Shimura took a deep breath, and his voice, amplified by chakra, echoed in the ears of every member of the Allied Shinobi Forces: "The traitors from Kumogakure are right in front of us. Today, we must defeat them at all costs."
"Charge!"
After Shimura Danzo finished speaking, the 10,000-strong Allied Shinobi Forces began to slowly turn like a huge and sophisticated machine, charging towards the location of the Cloud Shinobi.
At the same time, the ninjas of Kumogakure began to disperse in all directions, and the originally neat formation split into four passages.
The next second, A, Killer Bee, Sakumo Hatake, and Fugaku Uchiha stepped to the front.
The Third Raikage's body plummeted from a platform tens of meters high like a cannonball, creating a dense network of cracks in the ground.
"Hahahaha... This is so exciting! I've been looking forward to a battle like this for so long!"
"Today I'll show you what the strongest Raikage really is!"
As the Third Raikage finished speaking, A, Killer Bee, and the others arrived behind him.
The five men stood tall and straight, staring directly at the ten thousand ninja allies without changing their expressions.
Upon seeing this, the ninjas of the Allied Shinobi Forces all wore expressions of astonishment.
Someone couldn't help but shout, "Are you kidding me? Facing so many of us, are they only planning to send five people to fight?"
"Shouldn't these powerful figures—the Third Raikage, A, the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts, Sakumo Hatake, Fugaku Uchiha—be at the rear to oversee the battle and stabilize morale?"
"Are those Cloud Ninjas out of their minds? Do they really think they can stop us with just five people?"
"Damn it, there's a limit to underestimating people! This is a complete disregard for us!"
Hearing the Allied Shinobi Forces' angry questions, the Third Raikage laughed again: "A mere ten thousand shinobi are nothing. A few of us are enough."
"With great power comes great responsibility. Protecting the village and my comrades is my duty as the Raikage. Even if I die here, I will do my best to protect the new shoots and help them grow!"
Ai loudly echoed, "That's right, what we can do is not let our comrades die in vain!"
After hearing what the two said, the Allied Ninjas all looked confused.
Especially the Konoha ninja.
Why do these words sound so familiar?
Danzo Shimura, located in the rear, had a livid face.
These Cloud Ninja are definitely here on purpose to annoy Konoha.
It's obvious without even thinking that it was the idea of those inherently evil Uchiha clan members.
However, they will definitely regret risking the lives of so many powerful individuals just to disgust them!
The Third Raikage didn't care what the other side was thinking. After he finished speaking, his body transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged towards the Allied Shinobi Forces.
Fugaku Uchiha, Sakumo Hatake, and A immediately followed.
Upon hearing A's call, Killer Bee's body instantly surged with terrifying chakra, and then the massive Eight-Tails appeared before everyone.
With a roar, the massive Tailed Beast Ball charged towards the Allied Shinobi Forces.
Upon seeing this, the group of Iwa ninja immediately slammed their hands on the ground: "Earth Release: Thousand-Mile Earth Wall!"
Thick earthen walls rose from the ground, instantly forming an indestructible shield.
But the next second, the Tailed Beast Ball broke through all the earthen walls and exploded among the Allied Shinobi Forces.
In just a moment, the Allied Shinobi Forces suffered heavy casualties.
What made them even more desperate was that a second Tailed Beast Ball arrived in quick succession.
Another earthquake shook the earth, and the Allied Shinobi Forces suffered another heavy blow.
"Quick! Stop the Eight-Tails! We can't let it release another Tailed Beast Ball, or we won't be able to fight it!"
They had anticipated this situation beforehand.
Immediately, a squad composed entirely of elite ninjas rushed towards the location of the Eight-Tails.
"Get past us first!"
"Hell Thrust·Four Pen Hands!"
The Third Raikage flashed by, and the bodies of more than a dozen ninjas were instantly smashed into dust.
Sakumo Hatake, A, and Fugaku Uchiha followed closely behind.
The four of them were like a sharp knife, piercing through the formation of the Allied Shinobi Forces.
"Fire Escape: The Art of Fierce Flames!"
"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"
Dozens of ninja from the Allied Shinobi Forces joined forces to unleash a combination ninjutsu, which instantly engulfed the Third Raikage's body over a massive area.
But the next second, the Third Raikage rushed out unharmed: "Hahahaha... Are you guys just tickling me?"
"A true battle is one where a single blow is fatal!"
As soon as the Third Raikage finished speaking, several more ninjas died at his hands.
With so many Ninja Alliance soldiers, he only needed to raise his finger and charge back and forth to kill them.
Not far from the Third Raikage, A also moved like lightning.
He didn't have the Third Raikage's abnormal defensive power, so he specifically charged towards areas where the Allied Shinobi Forces were concentrated.
Many people, out of consideration for their companions, dared not join forces to unleash a wide-range ninjutsu.
Ai is like an eel, impossible to catch.
"Happy! So happy!"
Ai shouted loudly.
As long as he keeps chasing and biting the Allied Shinobi Forces ninjas, he won't be in any real danger.
After all, although his defense was not as good as his father's, ordinary kunai and low-level ninjutsu could not hurt him.
And each of his elbow strikes was enough to take the life of an enemy.
On the other side, Fugaku Uchiha's crimson three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly in his eyes.
He could capture all of the enemy's movements, and no matter what kind of attack he faced, he could make the right choice in the shortest amount of time.
Fugaku Uchiha's elegant swordsmanship, combined with his powerful dodging ability, made him dance like a butterfly amidst blood and fire.
"Let's attack together, even if it hurts our comrades, it's better than being constantly defeated by him."
Someone in the Allied Shinobi Forces shouted loudly.
But the next second, his heart was pierced through from behind.
Seeing the blank stares of his companions behind him, he stared wide-eyed in resentment.
Not only do they have to constantly resist the Sharingan's genjutsu and the opponent's superb swordsmanship, but now they also have to be on guard against their comrades who might be controlled by genjutsu...
He's just a regular genin, can someone tell him how he's supposed to fight this?!
Fugaku Uchiha ignored his dead opponents and continued to slaughter them, brandishing his long sword.
During his time in Kumogakure, he learned the village's Lightning Release Body Tempering Technique.
Although he couldn't master ninjutsu like Lightning Release Chakra Armor, his physical abilities were greatly enhanced.
Speed, strength, endurance...
Almost every aspect has been improved.
As the long sword slashed through the throat of another Konoha ninja, Fugaku Uchiha said coldly, "This time we are no longer comrades. Lament your unfortunate fate of not having the Sharingan."
Chapter 69 Anxiety
"No, don't kill me! Lord Sakumo, you saved me before, have you forgotten?"
Hearing the pleas of the Konoha ninja before him, Hatake Sakumo's eyes remained devoid of emotion.
He slashed with his short sword, and the Konoha ninja instantly lost all his life.
Unlike Fugaku Uchiha's flamboyant fighting style, Sakumo Hatake's attacks followed only one principle—
The essence of his swordsmanship lies in killing the ninjas blocking his path with minimal effort and in the simplest way.
The ninjas from other villages were alright, since the reputation of Konoha's White Fang had already spread throughout the entire ninja world during the Second Shinobi World War.
However, for the Konoha ninja, this was the first time they had faced Sakumo Hatake in a life-or-death situation.
They didn't feel much when they were allies, but now that they've become enemies, they realize just how terrifying White Fang is, the one who strikes fear into the hearts of his enemies.
No matter how many of them there were, no matter what methods they used, it seemed impossible to stop the enemy from using their fierce offensive to reap their lives one by one.
A strange sense of resentment welled up in the hearts of all the Konoha ninjas.
