Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu.

To be honest, Onoki couldn't quite understand why the situation in the ninja world had changed so suddenly.

However, judging from the current situation, Konoha has undoubtedly replaced Kumogakure as the strongest of the Five Great Ninja Villages. And it's become almost too strong. Even Kumogakure, which has always prioritized military strength, has been overtaken.

If the original battle plan is carried out and the village of Kumogakure is targeted, then Iwagakure will have to bear pressure from both Konoha and Kumogakure, and the situation will become very bad.

and so……

We have to adjust our strategy and focus our main efforts on Konoha.

"Kusagakure and the Land of Rain... perhaps we can use them to create some trouble for Konoha. Kusagakure already harbors resentment towards Konoha because of the recent Uzumaki incident; if we can find a way to fan the flames, we can ignite a conflict between the two sides..."

"We also need to try to make contact with the Hidden Cloud Village. Hopefully, the Third Raikage can understand human speech..."

Onoki spread out a map of the ninja world on his desk and began to carefully consider his options.

……

The next morning.

Southeast of the Land of Fire, the stronghold of Scorching Flower Town.

Yu Mikami got up early, washed up, and started packing his things.

When he set off to rescue Nohara Rin, he had already handed over most of the defense work on the southeastern front to Yuhi Maku and others.

Now that this trip back to Konoha is uncertain, and it's unclear how long they'll stay there, it's only natural that the Supreme Commander's authority should be transferred to Tsunade.

As one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha and a princess of the Senju clan, she had served as a commander during the Second Shinobi World War. In terms of both prestige and ability, there is no problem in her succeeding Mikami Yu as commander.

only……

Yu Mikami felt somewhat uneasy.

In theory, given Madara Uchiha's status, it's unlikely he would attack the Konoha base after he and Minato Namikaze had already left; and even if he did, it's unlikely he would kill Tsunade, who has Hashirama's bloodline.

As for Kirigakure, after suffering two defeats and casualties, it is difficult for them to organize enough troops to launch a counterattack against Konoha.

But there is still some risk involved.

Tsunade, however, didn't seem to care at all: "Well, while you and Minato are indeed the two most outstanding geniuses in Konoha in the last twenty years, I'm not one to be trifled with either. Back when I was fighting the elites of Iwa, Suna, and Ameonna, you were probably playing in the mud somewhere, honestly..."

"You're so talkative, I'd think I was your apprentice."

"..."

Yu Mikami's lips twitched slightly. He thought to himself, if you could just be more proactive and get back to your peak condition sooner, would I have to worry about you?

Putting aside her hemophobia, the only downsides are that there aren't many casinos in the border region, and Tsunade has a fair amount of self-control. Otherwise, she probably would have already quit and gone to the gambling den to give money to the bookies these past few days.

"Okay, stop thinking about it."

Tsunade patted Mikami Yu on the shoulder and said in a relaxed tone, "It's just a trip back to the village to report for duty. It's not like we're going to be separated by life and death. Don't worry, I'll be here waiting for you to come back."

"And those Uchiha, I'll keep a close eye on them too. I won't let them cause any trouble, nor will I erase the contributions they've made... By the way, are you sure that Fugaku and Shisui are loyal to Konoha and won't be secretly colluding with Madara Uchiha, right?"

"Yes."

Mikami Yu nodded slightly: "However, it cannot be ruled out that some individual Uchiha might have such thoughts, after all, some of their clansmen have rather peculiar thought processes..."

"I suggest you take some time to talk to Shisui and have him oversee the Uchiha's ideological trends and report any developments promptly. He should be able to complete the mission successfully."

As he said this, a sudden inspiration struck Mikami Yu—

Actually, there is a very simple way to solve Tsunade's "hemophobia".

All we need to do is get Shisui over here and throw a "Kotoamatsukami" at Tsunade.

The effect of "Kotoamatsukami" is to directly reverse the will of others; even Madara Uchiha was controlled by it for a few seconds, so correcting someone's "hemophobia" would be no problem. Shisui himself would probably be happy to help.

However, Tsunade might not want an Uchiha to treat her, and she certainly doesn't want the news of her mental illness to be revealed. Even if the treatment is successful, she might still be very unhappy about it.

Therefore, Yu Mikami could only suppress his thoughts for the time being and decided to look into it later.

As for having Tsunade use Shisui as a medium to convey a message of appeasement to the Uchiha clan...

That's a different matter altogether.

Judging from the original storyline, Shisui's loyalty to Konoha was very high, and he would prioritize the village over his clan. Fugaku's loyalty might not be as high, but due to his indecisive personality, even if he had the idea of ​​rebellion, he would not succeed.

Therefore, as long as these two people are kept in check, there won't be any major problems with the Uchiha clan.

However, these two are indeed a bit dim-witted and have poor judgment in judging people. One misjudged his son, leading to the extermination of his clan, and the other trusted Danzo, resulting in his untimely death... I might consider finding some humanities and social science books for them to read to improve their minds.

Especially Shisui; given his age, if his condition can be corrected, his future is promising. Fugaku, on the other hand, is probably of little use now, as his thinking has become largely fixed…

soon.

After explaining the recent precautions to Tsunade, Mikami Yu stuffed his "Thunder God Sword," "White Fang Short Sword," and the recently captured "Thunder Blade Fang" into Samehada's mouth, and then carried Samehada on his back.

As for the decapitation sword, the explosive sword - flying spray, the long sword - sewing needle, and the blunt sword - heap cut, he left them in the stronghold.

Anyway, the performance of these swords was so-so. Apart from the longsword, which was somewhat interesting, Yu Mikami didn't care about the other three at all, so Tsunade could do whatever she wanted with them. Whether she distributed them to the Konoha ninja or sealed them away for later redemption by Kirigakure didn't matter.

"Yu, are you ready?"

Minato Namikaze lifted the tent flap, and a golden head peered inside with a gentle smile on his face.

"almost."

Yu Mikami responded.

Given that the main tasks of this trip back to the village were to seal the Three-Tails and report information about Madara Uchiha, the number of people involved was not large.

Aside from Minato Namikaze, there are only Yu Mikami and Rin Nohara, making this a very rudimentary lineup.

In addition, there is another creature that is not human, namely the Six-Tails, which is sealed in a large iron barrel.

Although Minato Namikaze always claimed he wasn't skilled in sealing techniques, he still demonstrated his "Four Symbols Sealing Technique," sealing the Six-Tails inside a large iron barrel. While observing him use this technique, Yu Mikami's "Ghost System" responded once again:

[Ding! Gift detected: Premium Limited Skin Fragment - Sealing Seal: Four Symbols Seal! Gift now?]

"Hmm? So 'Four Symbols Seal' is a skin after all..."

But just fragments?

After a moment's thought, Mikami Yu didn't give it to her directly, but instead considered another matter—

It seems he has another mission on his way back—

That means trying to increase Kushina's favorability with her, and see if you can get a few more Uzumaki clan sealing technique scrolls from her, then copy them one by one and give them as gifts to "Sealing Seal".

Theoretically, the potential number of skins for the "Sealing Seal" is the largest among all ninjutsu. This is because the vast majority of sealing techniques originating from the Uzumaki clan, and perhaps even barrier techniques, could potentially be her skins. Even those not from the Uzumaki clan are very likely variations derived from them.

If all these techniques could be collected and then bestowed upon the "Sealing Seal" in order of rank, from lowest to highest...

I reckon I can quickly raise her favorability to 75, or even 90 or higher, thereby unlocking the features of the next two stages.

Furthermore...

This time, Mikami Yu led the Konoha border defense forces to thwart the plot of Kirigakure and Uchiha Madara, capturing the Two-Tails in one battle. He should have been able to exchange for several more rewards from the village. He had previously felt he had learned almost all the techniques he could, making it difficult to choose new ones, but now it seems…

Perhaps there is another option—

"Let Hiruzen Sarutobi search his ninjutsu library for some fire-style ninjutsu with the character 'dragon' in them. Even those from other villages will do."

"If there aren't any readily available, then we'll develop a few new ones..."

For most people, developing ninjutsu is not an easy task; it requires a long period of exploration and a moment of inspiration. However, Hiruzen Sarutobi is a "Ninjutsu Doctor" who is proficient in all of Konoha's ninjutsu, and he is only in his fifties. His strength and ambition have not been completely worn down.

At this age, with a little effort, and while still vigorous, I could have one or two more "daughters" that the hidden system could identify as potential romance targets...

I don't think I'm making things difficult for him, am I?

With that thought in mind, Yu Mikami secretly made up his mind.

"Let's go."

After a while.

Outside the base in Shoka Town,

Kakashi, Obito, Fugaku Uchiha, and others appeared and escorted Yu Mikami and his group to the door before waving goodbye.

Obito was clearly reluctant to part, and at that moment he was muttering to Rin Nohara, complaining softly:

"Waaah... Rin, Yu, and Minato-sensei, you guys really have to come back soon, otherwise I'll be stuck doing missions with that arrogant Kakashi every day, and just thinking about it gives me a headache."

"...Heh, you think it's beneath you to do missions with me? Then go to another team, no one's stopping you."

Kakashi glanced coldly at Obito and said sarcastically.

"Hmph, I was just taking pity on you. I saw you couldn't find any teammates to play with, so I was being kind to you, and you didn't even appreciate it! How awful!"

Obito also spoke coldly and sarcastically.

Most of the people around were already used to the two guys' daily banter, so they simply ignored it and continued to say goodbye to Mikami and the others.

the other side.

Asuma stole a glance at Kurenai from behind the crowd, his heart subtly stirred.

In a sense, he was the happiest person present.

after all……

He was the one who arrived first, whether they knew each other or were teammates... Back in the Ninja Academy, Kurenai Yuhi often asked him for advice on training, but she didn't know when it started, the latter's attention began to shift towards Yu Mikami.

This is actually quite normal.

After all, Yu Mikami is indeed dazzling, and even Asuma himself often feels envious and jealous of him. However, precisely because Yu Mikami's brilliance is so dazzling, he often overshadows others. Even a genius like Kakashi appears ordinary, let alone others.

now,

Mikami Yu is temporarily leaving the southeastern defense line.

This finally gave Asuma a chance to catch his breath.

He was already planning to make a good impression during this time, try to take down one or two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and even try to capture one or two Kage-level characters to gain Kurenai Yuhi's favor... Just thinking about it made him a little excited.

After waving goodbye for the last time,

Mikami Yu and his group embarked on their journey back to Konoha Village.

……

"Oh? Has Tobirama Senju already left the Shakuhana Town base?"

Inside the "Mountain Prison," a thousand miles away from the town of Zhuohua.

Madara Uchiha sat cross-legged on the cold boulder, his eyebrows slightly raised, listening to Black Zetsu's report.

At this moment, Ban looked somewhat old and haggard compared to his spirited appearance when he was parachuted into the southeastern battlefield not long ago.

This is normal.

After all, Madara Uchiha was already an old man in his seventies.

For ninjas, those who live to this age are extremely rare, and those who continue to be active on the battlefield at this age are almost nonexistent—if we include the original timeline, then Onoki, who participated in the Fourth Shinobi World War, could probably be considered one.

Because Madara consumed Hashirama's cells in his early years and received constant nourishment from the Divine Tree, his lifespan is longer than that of an average person. Theoretically, if he doesn't want to die, he can continue to live for another ten or eight years.

but……

This trip to the Fog Concealment battlefield caused him considerable damage.

No one knows what method that white-haired guy used, but the knife wound he left behind couldn't even be healed by the Divine Tree's healing power, and conventional medical ninjutsu was completely useless. It was as if he was under a curse... Fortunately, it wasn't fatal.

Although it was not life-threatening, it was still disheartening to see Madara Uchiha, once known as the "Asura of the Shinobi World" and the strongest person after Hashirama, suffer such injuries. This left Madara with a lingering sense of unease, which quickly caused him to become haggard.

"Lord Madara...should we take this opportunity to retaliate against Konoha? According to intelligence, the defensive strength of Konoha's southeastern defense line is currently at its lowest point in recent times. Making a move now will definitely teach them a profound lesson."

Black Zetsu tentatively asked.

"...No need."

Madara Uchiha decisively shook his head in refusal, then coldly said, "Have you ever seen an adult get angry at a child?"

Chapter 314 Madara: Tobirama Senju deserves to die! Returning to Konoha, and the shock of F3.

Although Madara Uchiha is no longer at his peak, he could still destroy one or two Konoha strongholds that are not guarded by Yu Mikami if he wanted to.

However, doing so would make his presence more obvious, thus making him the focus of attention in the entire ninja world sooner.

and……

"The ultimate goal of the 'Eye of the Moon Plan' is to free the entire ninja world from the endless cycle of war and usher in true peace, rather than simply physically eliminating a particular ninja village or a group of people. Unless their existence hinders the implementation of the plan."
