Seeing the reactions of the ninja representatives present, the Third Generation was not ambiguous and spoke directly: "As a Hokage, as a member of the Sarutobi clan, I should naturally lead by example!
"This time, I, Sarutobi Hiruzen, will also send 500 family ninjas to participate in the war, including 20 Jōnin."
Danzo followed closely and said, "I am speaking on behalf of the Shimura clan. The Shimura clan will send 400 family ninjas to participate in the war this time, including 18 Jōnin."
Utatane Koharu: "Although my Tentane clan is only a small ninja clan, we are willing to send 50 people to participate in the war this time, including 5 Jōnin."
Mitokado Homura: "My Mito clan will also send 50 people to participate in the war, including 9 Jōnin.
After the four people finished speaking, they looked at the representatives of other ninja clans present.
Her eyes even glanced at Uchiha Sarah and Uzumaki Mito in a subtle way.
Her thoughts were self-evident.
Now, who in Konoha doesn't know that Uchiha is the real first benefactor of Ye?
Uchiha Sarah saw this and sneered in her heart but said calmly on the surface, "In this case, then my Uchiha clan will also send 300 clan members to participate in the war—80 of them are Jōnin."
Her purpose is very clear. One of the main points is to focus on elite forces and not to send too many middle-level Genin to participate in the war.
Rather than letting the young middle-level Genin of the clan participate in the war, it is better to let them work hard to practice and improve themselves first.
Especially now that most of the children and teenagers in the clan have been contracted by Ethan, they are arranged to go to the pirate world for training, even training on a daily basis.
Of course, there are still many middle-level Genin among the participants.
And they are also contracted.
These people participated in the war in order to make up the number of people and also to let them get further experience on the battlefield.
Anyway, with the life-saving teleportation function of the contract, it is basically impossible for people to die.
"What? 80 Jōnin? Hiss! It's worthy of being Uchiha!"
"Indeed! Although the number is not large, the quality is high!"
"Uchiha is sincere enough!"
Most of the people present couldn't help but take a breath after hearing Uchiha Zhili's statement.
The number of Jōnin alone is nearly double the total number of Jōnin sent by the four clans of the Third Generation.
Moreover, everyone knows that the Jōnin of the Uchiha clan is much stronger than the average strength of the Jōnin of other ninja clans or even ninja villages.
Every three-magatama Uchiha Jōnin is an Elite Jōnin.
In recent years, this advantage has become more obvious.
Because the physique and vitality of the Uchiha clan's ninjas are much stronger than in the past.
Most Jōnin now even have physical skills at the Jōnin level.
Terrible.
When the Third Generation and Danzo heard what Uchiha Sarah said, their pupils shrank suddenly, and they looked at Uchiha Sarah.
Obviously, they didn't expect Uchiha Sarah to make such a choice.
"Reducing the number of weak personnel by sending a large number of elites? It seems that Uchiha Sarah doesn't want the Uchiha to suffer too many casualties on the battlefield!"
"But this is not a wise choice!"
The Third Generation and Danzo thought.
Because, who doesn't know that it takes extreme stimulation to open the eyes of the Uchiha clan?
And the battlefield is actually the best catalyst for Sharingan to open the eyes.
The Uchiha elites are indeed very strong, but most of them have opened their eyes.
If you don't send out weak clan members, don't you give up the opportunity to let these clan members open their eyes through war?
The Third Generation and Danzo didn't understand Uchiha Sarah's choice.
They didn't believe that Uchiha Sarah, with his intelligence, would not know this.
But he still chose this way.
"I'm afraid they are on guard against us! Haha! Unfortunately, they put the cart before the horse!"
The Third Generation and Danzo sneered in their hearts.
They decided that this time, they must kill as many of the elites sent by Uchiha as possible on the battlefield.
In this way, the strength of the Uchiha will be greatly weakened.
It will be convenient for them to further suppress Uchiha in the future.
Unfortunately, they obviously don't know how many Jōnin and Elite Jōnin Uchiha has added in recent years.
These are actually less than half of the Uchiha Jōnin and Elite Jōnin.
On weekdays, most of Uchiha's forces are sealed or simply transferred to the pirate world and hidden.
If the Third Generation knew about it, they would only be terrified and do something crazy, right? Uchiha Sarah and others chose to keep a low profile temporarily because they didn't want to force the Third Generation to jump off the wall and damage Konoha's strength.
Because the timing was wrong before.
Now it's almost time.
Speaking of opening the eyes, Ethan and many Uchiha people have proved that Sharingan meditation has a great effect on opening the eyes.
Health-preserving exercises and source chakra refining techniques are also effective.
One of them continuously improves mental strength, and the other, in addition to improving lifespan, improving bone quality, and improving chakra quality, also has the hidden effect of purifying and replenishing blood.
Combining the two, even if it is a pig, with the blood of the Uchiha clan, it is estimated that after practicing for a few years, it can open the Sharingan.
There is no need to open the eyes with killing stimulation.
If killing stimulation is really needed to open the eyes, for the current Uchiha, there is no need to go through the Ninja World War!
Hunting pirates, Sea Kings, and even ferocious beasts in the pirate world is all possible.
There are so many opportunities.
There is no need to worry about being known and targeted by the Third Generation.
Unfortunately, the Third Generation does not know these.
I just thought that Uchiha Sarah made a stupid choice to save the new generation of the family.
In fact, not only the Third Generation, but also many representatives of the clan who knew the Uchiha Kaigan Dalifa thought so.
Uchiha Sarah was very worried in the face of many strange looks.
"Haha! Now you think I am stupid and conservative, but when you know the truth, you will not think so!"
Uchiha Sarah sneered in his heart.
Immediately after Uchiha Sarah, Uzumaki Mito also said, "Senju sent 30 clan members to participate in the war, including 15 Jōnin!"
At this point, Uzumaki Mito looked around and said lightly, "I think you all know that the Senju clan has integrated most of the side branches into the civilians in recent years, and the main branches also suffered most of the casualties in the last Ninja World War."
"There are not many clan members left, and these people have accounted for 90% of the elite of Senju."
Of course, this is just for listening.
In the past few years, Uzumaki Mito has been secretly gathering the new generation of Senju and even some of the new generation that passed away.
Arrange for them to be taught and trained in the clan.
And secretly let Ethan send Shadow Clone to teach them and improve their favorability.
Then contact these people and send them to the pirate world to practice and improve.
In three years, the national nation has sold more than a hundred clansmen to the pirate world.
Of course, they still go back to the Senju clan to rest and live every day.
However, they have seals on their bodies to seal most of their auras and hide them.
The Third Generation knew that Uzumaki Mito secretly gathered the new generation of Senju that was separated.
Uzumaki Mito himself did not think that he could hide it from them.
After all, there are so many people.
As long as the Third Generation are not blind, they can find it.
But what can they do if they find it?
Stop it?
That's asking for trouble.
This is the Senju's own business; what reason do they have to stop it?
Using the Second Generation's policy of integrating Senju into Konoha as an excuse?
But the Second Generation did not say that the masters who integrated into the civilians, especially the new generation, could no longer be recruited to accept Senju training?
Uzumaki Mito can say that all this is for Konoha, for the purpose of cultivating the next generation of Konoha.
Because of this, the Third Generation just paid attention and did not mention this to Uzumaki Mito.
"Thank you for your support, Master Mito!"
When the Third Generation heard Uzumaki Mito's words, they were immediately ecstatic, and on the surface they bowed respectfully to Uzumaki Mito.
To show respect.
But in their hearts, they were thinking the same as Danzo: how to kill the last elite of Senju on the battlefield this time.
At that time, the backbone and the last hope of Senju would be completely broken.
Will the remaining new generations be difficult to deal with?
As long as they find a way to kill them one by one before they grow up, it will be fine.
If these people want to grow up in the future, they will have to graduate and become ninjas [to go on missions and gain experience, right?].
This is the opportunity.
Even they have the same idea for the new generation of Uchiha.
Wait until most of the elites sent by Uchiha are killed this time.
Let Uchiha's strength be greatly damaged, and then they can improve the new generation of Uchiha and the remaining elite forces.
In this process, they can even find an opportunity to get the drug formulas and magical shellfish acquisition channels of Uchiha and make them their own.
At that time, their Sarutobi, Shimura, and other four tribes will really take off.
Once their four tribes, especially the Sarutobi tribe, become strong to a certain extent, it doesn't matter whether Konoha has Uchiha, Senju, Uzumaki, Hyuga, and other ninja tribes.
If the strength is strong enough, Sarutobi Hiruzen even wants to turn Konoha Village into Sarutobi Village.
Although Uzumaki Mito doesn't know what Sarutobi Hiruzen is thinking at this time, he can roughly figure it out.
Therefore, she only nodded lightly to the Third Generation's salute, without any other expression.
The Third Generation was not embarrassed by this but looked at Uzumaki Luming.
Uzumaki Luming felt the Third Generation's gaze, and without looking at him, he said directly, "My Uzumaki clan will send 200 masters to participate in the war this time [20 of them]!"
"You all know that we suffered a heavy loss a few years ago, and our clan members suffered heavy casualties. This is already our greatest support!"
Although the Uzumaki clan still has more than a thousand clan members, excluding the old and the young, there are only more than 500 formal ninjas. This is almost half of them, which is very sincere.
Even so, it is because they were arranged by Uchiha and Senju to be secretly trained, and the high-level nutritional pills supported by Uchiha in recent years have greatly improved the strength of the Uzumaki clan.
Otherwise, he would send even fewer people.
As for not sending?
That is definitely impossible.
The Third Generation and even most of the ninja clans in Konoha would not agree.
Because although your Uzumaki clan has always been an ally of Senju and even Konoha in the past, it has only been in Konoha for more than three years, and its roots in Konoha are not deep.
Is it possible that you accept Konoha's protection but don't want to contribute during the war?
"You are thoughtful!"
The Third Generation listened and nodded.
I think this is about right.
