More than an hour later,
Hokage building, inside the conference hall.
At this time, most of the registered Jōnin in the village and representatives of various ninja clans have arrived here.
Uzumaki Mito, Uchiha Sarah, and Uzumaki Akihime sat together.
"Uchiha is well-informed. Do you know what happened?"
"Uzumaki Mito?" asked Uchiha Sarah in a low voice.
Although, Senju has recovered some of its vitality in the past few years with the efforts of her and Tsunade and the help of Uchiha.
But the time is too short, and this time is far from enough.
Therefore, Senju's intelligence network is far from being restored.
Let alone the Uzumaki clan.
"It should be the matter of Rain Shinobi Village invading the Land of Fire!"
"There are Rock Shinobi and Sand Shinobi behind this matter!"
"Obviously, after all these years of peace, some people can't sit still anymore. They feel that their strength has recovered and want to start a new Ninja World War to reap the benefits!"
"Third Generation, they probably won't miss this opportunity!"
"Next, we have to play with them well, and at the same time we can proceed with the next stage of the plan!"
Uchiha Sarah directly sent a telepathic message to the two of them.
This is the spiritual technique she mastered after practicing Sharingan meditation for half a year.
It's very useful.
Some things are still not suitable to be said in public.
Even if the voice is low, who is not a strong man with sharp eyes and ears?
Uzumaki Mito immediately nodded in understanding and sent a voice transmission to Kaidō: "I see! Unfortunately, it's useless for them to be blinded!"
"They have been waiting for this opportunity, and so have we?"
"Next, we need to plan well and kill as many elites of the four clans as possible on the battlefield, such as Sarutobi..."
"At the same time, we must let Danzo and the Third Generation bear enough guilt."
"Our own people have made enough merits and further won the hearts of many ninja clans and civilian ninjas on the battlefield so that it will be convenient to completely pull the Third Generation down after the war and throw them into the abyss of no return."
"Hmm!"
Uchiha Sarah nodded slightly and sent a voice transmission to Kaidō: "We must also take this opportunity to clean up the other four major ninja villages so that they will not be able to provoke wars in the next few years; it will be convenient for us to reorganize and reform Konoha later."
Since the preparations have begun, the steps must be in place.
At present, Uchiha is terribly strong.
There are hundreds of elite Jōnin with three magatama and even more ordinary Jōnin.
If it weren't for the fact that many children and teenagers have not grown up completely because of the short time, the number of elites would be even greater.
If most of these elite Jōnin have not been contracted by Ethan, it would be difficult to fully support them in training and improvement.
Among these people, it is estimated that many have already broken through the Kage-level.
"Makes sense!"
Uzumaki Mito agreed with this and sent a voice message to Kaidō: "If that's the case, then should we two take action this time?"
"After all, Inoku and the Third Raikage are not easy to deal with."
After three years, she and Uchiha Sarah did not stand still.
On the contrary, they made great progress.
With the resources of the pirate world and the many heaven-defying techniques given by Ethan, the strength of the two is definitely beyond Kage-level.
And it's not the kind of beginner.
Their physique is also terrifyingly strong. I can't say it's comparable to the Admiral level in the pirate world! But they are definitely at the level of alternate admiral.
The level of practice of Conqueror's Haki is not low.
Well! Both of them have awakened Conqueror's Haki.
Ethan is not surprised by this.
Because, whether it is Uzumaki Mito or Uchiha Sarah, they are strong women who have implemented and strengthened their beliefs in their hearts. Isn't it normal to awaken Conquerors?
Since mastering Conqueror's and constantly improving it, Ethan has gradually recognized the essence of Conqueror's—this thing is an extension of the will of the mind (aiba).
"Let's see!"
Uchiha Sarah shook his head slightly without comment and transmitted, "Ethan's current strength has reached the peak of Kage-level, and he has also cultivated both the Dharma and the body [strength is enough to defeat Ohnoki and the Third Generation movie]!" "Even without him, Tsunade's current strength is also a solid Kage-level peak, and we should not need to do anything!" "Moreover, if we want to push Ethan to become Hokage after the war, we can't intervene too much, but let Ethan make the greatest contribution and completely eliminate his age problem!" "Otherwise, it may be difficult to convince the public!"
As for why they are so eager to help Ethan become Hokage? Naturally, it is to make it easier for Ethan to gain more people's admiration and respect so that he can more easily brush off the favorability of the ninjas in the village and prepare for the subsequent entry of all people into the pirate world! If you don't sit in this position, the effect will be greatly reduced.
Otherwise, let Tsunade take the position first after the war. The best option is to let the Hokage transition.
"Yes! Then let's not make a move for the time being!"
"Just take care of this!"
"Unless the old guy Uchiha Madara can't hold back and makes a move, then we'll see if we should make a move!"
Uzumaki Mito transmits the voice.
Uzumaki Mito is also very clear about the information about Black Zetsu and Uchiha Madara.
Moreover, in the past few years, Black Zetsu's and even White Zetsu's activities have been found in Konoha, especially in the Uchiha clan.
If the timing was not right, they would have taken action long ago.
But even if they did not take action, they were not idle.
After more than a year of hard work, more than two years ago, Uzumaki Mito and Uchiha Sarah created a sealing technique specifically for Yin-Yang Release [Black Zetsu].
Once they take action, they can use this sealing technique to deal with Black Zetsu.
Yes! The premise is that it is necessary.
At this time, the Third Generation, Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura, walked in from outside, attracting the attention of most people at once.
Soon, the four people fell separately.
The Third Generation, who was sitting at the head, looked around, especially at Uzumaki Mito, Uchiha Sarah, and Uzumaki Akimoto, who were sitting together.
He paused for a second before looking away, then stood up and said, "Everyone! I have been anxious to gather you here for the past few days because the war is coming!"
"A few days ago, Hanzō of the Salamander of Rain Shinobi Village led the ninja troops of Rain Shinobi Village to invade our Fire Country and occupied more than ten villages on the border."
"Even more than ten ninjas on our border were killed!"
"In response, the daimyo was furious and asked us to send troops to recover the lost land and teach the Rain Country a lesson."
"After preliminary discussions between me and several consultants, we have decided to declare war on Rain Shinobi Village, send ninja troops to drive Rain Shinobi Village out of the Fire Country, and invade the Rain Country to defeat Hanzō of the Salamander."
"Let him and other forces in the ninja world know that our Konoha is not easy to bully!"
As soon as these words came out, the following Jōnin and the representatives were all furious.
"When did Rain Shinobi, a mere idiot, dare to challenge Konoha and the Land of Fire? Does he think that just because he is called a demigod, he really considers himself a demigod?"
"Heh! Maybe that's what he thinks!"
"No doubt, we will start a war. We must teach Rain Shinobi and Hanzo a lesson. Otherwise, no one will dare to challenge and invade the Land of Fire in the future!"
"That's right! We must not tolerate it. We must strike hard!"
##
A group of people chattered, showing indignation.
The Third Generation saw it and nodded with satisfaction.
This is the effect he wanted.
The army's morale can be used.
He immediately raised his hand to suppress it, and when everyone quieted down again, he continued: "Today, we called everyone here to discuss the specific matter of sending troops."
"This time, according to the intelligence we received, the actions of the Rain Country were actually instigated and pushed by Rock Shinobi and Sand Ninja."
"It can be seen that this war is not just a war between us and Rain Shinobi Village."
"On the contrary, this is likely to be a ninja war that affects the entire ninja world!"
"Once we go to war with the Rain Country, Rock Shinobi and Sand Ninja will definitely wait for an opportunity to attack."
"Even if we fall into the quagmire of war with Rock Shinobi, Sand Ninja, and Rain Shinobi, it is not ruled out that Cloud Shinobi and Mist Shinobi may also declare war on us."
"After all, they have always coveted the territory of our Fire Country."
After hearing this, most of the people looked stern and got up solemnly.
"That's very possible indeed!"
"There were actually signs of this during the last Ninja World War!"
"Damn Rock Shinobi and Mist Shinobi! As expected, I said that no matter how arrogant Hanzo was, he should know that we Konoha are not someone he can afford to mess with. Now it seems that there is someone backing him up! Hehe!"
"Things are getting complicated!"
"What's the problem? Just fight. When have we ever been afraid of Konoha?"
The reactions of the crowd were different, but it was clear that they all hated the trouble-making Rock Shinobi and Sand Shinobi.
The Third Generation saw that the guidance was almost done, so they pressed their hands again, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then spoke again: "In view of this, we need to be prepared to go to war with two or even three or four fierce villages at the same time."
"Therefore, an elite force needs to be arranged to guard the borders of all four directions in advance, just in case.'
"At the same time, the village also needs to prepare ninja troops in advance to deal with any war!"
"And these, relying solely on the village's ninja troops and Anbu, are far from enough!"
"Therefore, I still need the families behind the ninja representatives present to perform enough family ninjas to support me!"
The representatives of each ninja clan narrowed their eyes slightly after hearing this.
They said, "Sarutobi." Why did Hiruzen call them all here today and lay so much groundwork?
It turns out that he wanted them to send people to support him!
The representatives of the ninja clans also had different reactions to this matter.
Some supported it, some chose to wait and see, and at the same time, some were mentally resistant.
But none of them rushed to speak but quietly looked at the Third Generation, waiting for his next words.
If they want their respective families to send people, then shouldn't the families behind the Konoha F4 also set an example and send people and efforts?
Otherwise, who would be willing to send the accumulated strength of the family to the battlefield?
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen has only been in power for twelve or thirteen years, he has made a lot of money in these years by relying on the authority of the Hokage.
In addition, Sarutobi Hiruzen himself is from a ninja clan with a large population and a lot of fertility. With a large supply of resources, he has cultivated a lot of ninja power in these years.
It is unrealistic to completely hide these from all ninja clans.
At most, it can be hidden from those small and medium-sized ninja clans, and some of the power can be hidden from the big ninja clans.
Not only Sarutobi, Shimura, and Utane, but also the three clans of Mito Gate have grown rapidly in recent years.
Moreover, they don't know how to keep a low profile, and their expansion is blatant.
It is precisely because of these three clans that they attract most of the energy and attention that Sarutobi Hiruzen can grow in a low profile!
It can be seen that the Third Generation is very smart.
