Konoha meeting room.

In stark contrast to the Uchiha and Hyuga families, after Hiashi expressed his position, no one spoke again.

Everyone was silent, as if they were a group of quails.

Although they agreed to the war, how much effort they would put in depends on the situation. What if the Uchiha and Hyuga families were just pretending to be good, but were not willing to work hard? Wouldn't they be pitted to death if they stepped forward?

Although they were all Konoha ninjas, they could not trust them completely for a while.

After all, you must be on guard against others!

According to their thinking, the main force of this war must be the Uchiha and Hyuga families, and their family members will only be responsible for assisting from the side.

They said they were companions, but they would still be clear when distinguishing responsibilities. Why should others charge into the battle for the things that the Uchiha and Hyuga families caused? They have already tried their best to assist!

Ninjas from their small families have no chance to become Hokage, and being an elite jonin is already the limit. Of course, they will not bet too many lives of their clansmen on things like war.

If they win, the credit will go to others, and if they lose, they will not take the blame.

It is impossible to fight to the death!

In this case, of course, just messing around will do.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Uchiha Yusuke with pride.

Although you are good at making trouble, Uchiha is still a little short of getting the support of Konoha! However, the war is imminent, and the Third Hokage naturally cannot drag Uchiha Yusuke's feet blatantly.

He can help to gather combatants, but it is basically impossible to have an advantage in manpower.

Uchiha sent two-thirds of the elite this time, and Sarutobi Hiruzen hoped that they would fight with Kumogakure on the battlefield and both sides would suffer losses.

In this way, internal and external troubles will be eliminated at the same time, which is simply killing two birds with one stone!

Uchiha Yusuke knew the little thoughts of the Third Hokage.

There is indeed a big risk in fighting against Kumogakure, but if handled properly, it is also an opportunity to establish the prestige of Uchiha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has his own calculations, and Uchiha Yusuke also has his own ideas.

Although this game has great risks, the opportunities are also not small.

No risk, no gain?

This time, Uchiha is going to take risks to gain wealth and fame!

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed and stood up.

"Uchiha and Hyuga are righteous"

"Everyone, don't hide it, this is a war to protect the village!"

The Third Hokage came out, and everyone couldn't keep silent anymore.

After all, the war is not a matter of one or two families.

It is not realistic to let the Uchiha and Hyuga families face Kumogakure alone.

Nara Shikaku took the lead.

"Our Nara clan can send out 10 jonin and 100 chuunin.

Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza followed closely behind.

"The same goes for us!"

Ino-Shika-Chou is also a famous clan in Konoha. The three clans together sent ninjas to approach Hyuga, which is quite considerate.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction.

"The three of you are so thoughtful. The position of military strategist for this war will be assumed by Shikaku!"

Everyone in Konoha knows the intelligence of the Nara clan.

Even Uchiha Yusuke couldn't find any fault with the Third Hokage's arrangement. The battlefield military strategist is also an important position with decision-making power. The reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen made the arrangement in advance was that he was worried that Uchiha would take the opportunity to intervene in the power center.

According to Sarutobi Hiruzen's idea, although Uchiha sent a lot of people, the core power would never be given to them.

At most, Uchiha Yusuke would be given the title of deputy commander-in-chief.

Sarutobi Hiruzen once again looked at the patriarchs of other families.

"The Ino, Shika and Chou families have sent out half of their forces, and each of you should send out one-third of your forces!"

War is a good opportunity, not only to weaken the Uchiha and Hyuga families, but also to suppress other families.

The Sarutobi family has been thriving in recent years. Once the Hyuga and Uchiha families are defeated, the Sarutobi family will be the most famous family in Konoha!

"this……"

The heads of the small families in Konoha were embarrassed and hesitated to speak.

Their families were generally weak and could not be compared with the powerful families like Hyuga and Uchiha.

Other families had thousands of ninjas, but they had less than a hundred.

The death of any one of them would be a great loss!

However, the Third Hokage had already made his point, and they could not refute it at all.

Other families had contributed at least half, so it would not be too much to ask you to contribute one-third?

Under the gaze of the Third Hokage, the heads of the small families could only swallow their anger and nod in agreement.

Each family expressed its position, and Sarutobi Hiruzen made the final decision.

Konoha finally gathered 3,000 ninjas and chose a day to go to the front line for a decisive battle with Kumogakure.

When the dust settled, the civilian ninja representatives showed a touch of joy in their eyes.

Facing Kumogakure this time, the major families of Konoha sent more than 2,000 ninjas.

And they had less than a thousand civilian ninjas, which was naturally something to be happy about.

You know, in previous wars, it was basically the civilian ninjas who invested the most and sacrificed the most.

This time, the civilian-born ninjas finally had a break.

""Alas!"

The clan leaders looked at Uchiha Yusuke and Hyuga Hiashi with some complaints.

The Third Hokage was highly respected, and Danzo did not come out to take the blame.

Uchiha Yusuke and Hyuga Hiashi were naturally the first to bear the brunt.

The Uchiha and Hyuga families were large and powerful, and they had hundreds of ninjas even if they took out more than half of their combat power.

We were badly screwed by you!

One third of the ninjas, this is really going to cost us our lives!

The combat members have been finalized, and the next step is the most critical issue of command.

The Third Hokage stood up with a smile on his face.

"Hiashi, this matter is caused by you, Hyuga"

"You will be the commander-in-chief of the battlefield!"

Hinata Hiashi stood up and bowed respectfully to Sarutobi Hiruzen to apologize.

"Thank you for your trust, Hokage, but I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be the commander-in-chief of the battlefield!"

The two advisors stood up with gloomy faces after hearing this.

"Rizu, what are you talking about?"

"Who else besides you can be the commander-in-chief on the battlefield?"

"Don't you want to contribute to Konoha?"

The Konoha high-level officials had already decided to let Hyuga Hiashi be the commander-in-chief, and naturally no one could question it.

Facing the questions from the two advisors, Hyuga Hiashi remained neither humble nor arrogant.

"Mr. Advisor, I think Chief Yusuke is more suitable than me."

"Yusuke is known as the"Flame Demon" and has defeated Uchiha Fugaku before. He is much stronger than me!"

Give me a peach, give me a plum in return."

Uchiha Yusuke once did a favor to Hyuga, and Hyuga Hiashi took this opportunity to repay him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and spoke again

"Yusuke is indeed quite capable, but he is still too young."

"Rizu, we all know how strong you are, why are you so modest?"

"You are older and more stable, so don't refuse this command position!"
