Uchiha's road to the top started from Konoha

Chapter 78: The Second Ninja World War breaks out

The battle in the Valley of the End has lasted for a day and a night. The expressions of shock on the faces of the Shadow Guards who are responsible for recording have become numb. Waves of ninja hawks have flown in to deliver messages to the Hokage Building.

Uchiha Shifang, who was in charge of the Military Affairs Department in the Hokage Building, looked at the intelligence coming from the Valley of the End that the two sides were evenly matched. The solemn expression on his face eased a little, but he frowned at the following news.

"Humph, the three great nations came here to take advantage of the situation!"

Looking at the intelligence that the ninja armies of the three major countries, the Land of Earth, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Water, had already started a war without declaration and had crossed the small countries on the border to overwhelm the Land of Fire, Uchiha Sifang looked up and glanced at the three staff officers in the department.

"The Whirlpool Country has the Uzumaki clan's leader, and the Senju clan has come to support them. It won't be a problem for them to hold off the Hidden Mist Village."

"The Earth Nomad's defense line has Uchiha Kaname, Sarutobi Sasuke, and Hyuga Ashizashi. It won't be a problem to stop the Iwagakure Village."

"The Wind Country's defense line has Shimura Isshin, Inuzuka Hattori, and Aburame Mushi, which is enough to defend against the weakest Sand Village."

Listening to the analysis of the three military advisors, Uchiha Shifang nodded and said, "The battle between Uchiha Madara and the Shodaime lasted for three days and three nights. This time, the Sandaime and Minister Mito will join forces to fight Uchiha Madara, and the battle will not be short."

"During this period, the border cannot be breached by the ninja villages of the three major countries. You must integrate the existing intelligence and the number of ninjas in the village to actively respond."

"We understand, Minister Sifang!"

The three staff officers immediately got busy. Uchiha Sifang's eyes flickered, and he realized in deep thought that according to the current situation, there would be little point in him staying in Konoha Village.

The dispatch of the ninja army can be left to the three staff officers who are responsible for the three border defense lines respectively. As the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, although he is not strong, he cannot just sit here and watch.

At this time, we should be prepared for the worst. If Uchiha Takean and Uzumaki Mito join forces to fight Uchiha Madara, and both are seriously injured and unable to fight again, then it will be my turn to take the stage.

(You are still too young and don’t think things through.)
Having made up his mind, Uchiha Shifang assigned his tasks and headed straight for the Valley of the End with a few of his three-magatama confidants.

In the southwest of the Land of Fire, in the Sand Village of the Land of Wind across the Land of River, the Second Kazekage Samon, who led the Ninja Army, looked calmly at the three Konoha people who were confronting him across the canyon, and gently raised his hand.

Behind him, rows of war machines such as catapults and chain crossbows were ready to fire.

"put!"

Following the order from the Second Kazekage, huge iron sand balls flew towards the Konoha Ninja Army with the help of catapults, and chain crossbows also began to fire. At this moment, crossbow arrows became a cloud, pressing down on the top of the head.

"Attention everyone!"

The commander of the southwest ninja army was automatically taken over by the strongest Aburame. This man in a high-collared robe was no stranger to the combat of the ninja army.

He looked coldly at the crossbow arrows and iron sand balls in the sky. The detonating talismans on them were fluttering in the wind, making each crossbow arrow have the power of a fireball.

"Water escape troops, step out!"

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

The combined water-style ninjutsu soared into the sky, and the moment it collided with the crossbow arrow, the detonating tags on it exploded, blasting holes in the thick wall of the super-water array.

Then, the last iron sand ball that fell, when it came into contact with the water escape, exploded into countless tiny Senbon. When the Senbon hit the water flow, thick smoke and a faint green color could be seen coming out of the clear water.

(Using poison? What a sinister ninja village!)

Seeing this scene, the three Kage-level officers frowned and raised the alert level for the invading Sand Village by several levels.

This thing is extremely poisonous. If they are not careful, even they will be defeated by the weak.

"Keep playing!"

Seeing that the first round of attack had no effect, Shamen remained unmoved and continued to wave his hand, and the war machinery behind him continued to roar.

Konoha used water escape and earth escape in succession. After four rounds, Inuzuka Mushi looked at the quiet Sand Village on the other side, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth under his collar, "The poorest ninja village dares to provoke Konoha? Who gave them the courage!"

"Chong, do you want to charge in full force? We'll beat them all back into the sand!"

In the face of Uchiha Madara, they were timid, but in the face of Sand Village's Inuzuka Blade, they chose to attack with a heavy blow. In the opposing ninja army, apart from the slightly troublesome Second-daime Kazekage, there was only one young Kage-level ninja left. If they really counted the numbers, there was not enough for the three of them.

"No hurries."

The head of the Shimura clan, Shimura Isshin, said, "We haven't used our war machines yet. If we rush over now and suffer heavy casualties, we will be embarrassed if the Military Affairs Department holds us accountable."

"Yixin is right. Money should be spent wisely and you should not be stingy when it is time to spend it."

Aburame continued to command the war machinery that had been loaded long ago. With a wave of her hand, similar detonating crossbows and iron stones flew towards the Sand Village headquarters.

However, to their surprise, a sea of ​​sand flew out from above the opponent's head and turned into a solid barrier, blocking most of the attacks. The remaining crossbow arrows and iron stones were also blocked by the wind-style ninjutsu.

"It's interesting that you can actually control the sand."

"It doesn't feel like a secret technique."

"That's the unknown bloodstain of the Sand Village?"

The three of them exchanged views with each other, and Aburame waved her hand again, and Konoha's war machines began to fire in succession. After seven rounds, looking at the Sand Village, which had suffered many casualties and a scattered formation, the three veteran Kage-level Konoha members all smiled.

At this time, the Hyuga branch jonin who was observing with his Byakugan on the side suddenly had his pupils shrink and immediately reported the situation to Aburame.

"You mean, those dead humanoid objects are not living people, but puppets with chakra circuits?"

"Yes, Aburame-sama."

"Continue to observe and report immediately if you have any intelligence."

"Roger that, Aburame-sama."

Aburame was staring at the Sand Village ninja army across the canyon. At this time, a small black insect flew to his side. It was a parasitic insect cultivated by the Aburame clan that could be used for attack, defense and detection.

"The number of ninja soldiers on the opposite side is about 1,200, half of which are puppets."

Aburame told the news from Parasite, and Inuzuka Kiba said, "It seems that the Sand Village has developed some good ninjutsu."

"We have never come into contact with the puppetry of the Sand Village. I suggest that we continue to use war machines to consume the enemy's strength, either forcing them to withdraw or forcing them to abandon their positions and come to fight."

Shimura Isshin's suggestion was unanimously agreed upon by both of them.

Looking at the continuous firing of Konoha's war machines, the second-generation Samon who was controlling the Sand Iron and his successor Mello both looked unhappy.

The two of them had limited chakra, and facing the wealthy Konoha, in order to preserve their hard-earned possessions such as war machines, they chose to retreat.

The defense line of the Wind Country in the southwest was temporarily maintained, and the Whirlpool Country in the southeast also defended the Hidden Mist Village in the Water Country. However, bad news came from the defense line of the Earth Country in the northwest.

The third Tsuchikage of the Iwagakure Village, Ohnoki, who was proficient in the Blood Elimination and Dust Release technique, used the Dust Release and Original World Stripping technique in one fell swoop to sneak attack and kill Uchiha Hinokaku!
This news was hastily transmitted back to the Hokage Building, and the General Staff also released their Ninja Hawks to quickly contact the four Uchiha clans who had left.

Upon hearing the news, the Uchiha Sifangs turned directly and headed towards the northwest earth defense line.

Not long after the First World War, the Second Ninja World War broke out!
