Starting Mangekyo, Leaving Konoha With Master Madara

On the front line, since Konoha's large forces retreated to Mount Kikyo, the Kumo ninja's offensive has become much weaker.

Perhaps it was because Commander Jing had a good command, or perhaps the enemy retreated in the face of difficulties. In short, the opponent's gold and silver brothers had already set up camp outside Platycodon Mountain and began a siege.

This circle lasts for one week.

At the end of the year, Jing personally led a troop out of the city to investigate. After careful investigation, he found that the enemy had blocked all the way forward.

This also means that all Konoha's positions north of Mount Kikyo have fallen.

Jing frowned and thought hard, the tactic of dividing his troops and seizing the position in a roundabout way was impossible. If he wanted to take back the hinterland, he could only fight to the death to break the formation.

"Hiruzhan, you and Danzo should return to their positions first."

"What?" Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and asked in confusion, "What are you going to do?"

Just the day before yesterday, the disciples of Second Hokage, headed by Hiruzen, rushed to the battlefield, and all orders were based on the commander Kagami.

At first, a few people were a little unconvinced. Everyone was born at the same time, so why can you, Uchiha mirror, be the only one?

But when he saw the overwhelming strength of the Gold and Silver Brothers and the terrifying combat power unleashed by the Mirror Burst, all of them shut up obediently.

"The enemy only besieges but does not attack, so there must be a conspiracy. At this time, there are many dangers outside, so using the Flying Thunder God to teleport back is a good idea!" Danzo said sinisterly, with undisguised malice inside and outside his words, " Jing, are you not capable enough to lead people like us?"

"Call me Commander."

Jing glanced at him and said, "Being a ninja requires you to be aware of your own mortality. Besides, I didn't ask you to charge into battle at all. Considering the strength of you Elite Jōnin, if you can't even return to the position, then I'm really sorry for the teacher who has spent so many years. Cultivated.”

"King, what we are worried about is, what are you going to do?" Koharu pushed Danzo away from the bed, glared at him angrily, and then turned to look at King, "You are the commander now, every move you make It’s all about everyone’s survival.”

"Don't worry, I have the strength to protect myself. I just want to try to see if I can sneak into the enemy's base camp and perform a 'decapitation operation'." Jing said word by word, "But if I take you back, I will need to consume a lot of Chakra. Then the 'decapitation operation' would be impossible to carry out..."

"What if something happens to you?" Hiruzen frowned and said, "I'll go with you so that we can take care of each other."

"What?" Danzo immediately looked over as if he were a fool, "Hiruzhan, are you out of your mind? What kind of strength do you have? It's just adding to the chaos..."

Hiruzen's voice was slightly angry, "I just want to do my part for the village, you can't put all the pressure on him alone!"

As soon as these words came out, several people immediately looked at each other. Danzo wanted to say something else, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them alive.

"I know that my strength is not as good as Mirror, at least I have the consciousness to sacrifice myself at any time!" Hiruzen said firmly: "This is my duty as a Hokage disciple!"

"Okay, I will carry out the 'decapitation operation' and you guys will return to the base immediately. This is the commander's order!"

Jing shouted in a deep voice, and as Chakra mobilized, his momentum suddenly changed, extinguishing the emotions of everyone in the team instantly.

Then, he looked at Hiruzen and his tone softened, "Don't worry, with my Flying Thunder God Technique and Eye Technique, I can retreat at any time."

After participating in the war for only a month, his temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes. He was no longer the meek and humble person he was before, and his eyes became a bit colder and iron-blooded.

Everyone was shocked by his momentum and could only nod helplessly and set off to return to the Platycodon Mountain position.

The mirror, on the other hand, went in the opposite direction alone.

...

At noon, a piece of news came back to Konoha, causing all the senior officials to fall into silence.

In the Hokage Building, you could hear needles dropping in the conference room. Everyone, including Senju Tobirama, stared at the letter on the table with complicated expressions, frowning and saying nothing.

The atmosphere once dropped to freezing point, but no one was willing to stand up and break the calm. As time passed, Konoha's top management slowly fell into this unbearable quagmire.

Just because...

The news was: "The Kumo ninja's surprise attack force invaded the Land of Fire by sea and captured the eastern border in just half a day. The commander of this force is none other than the newly promoted Second Raikage from Kumo Hidden Village!"

"so......"

Tobirama spoke, his voice suddenly hoarse, and he made a final struggle, "Send Hyuga Chunfeng, what do you think?"

"Uh... this..." The elder of the Shimura clan raised his hand, a little embarrassed: "The strength of the Hyuga clan leader can indeed rival Kumogakure's Second Raikage, but if he leaves, there will be Who can guard the village? What if..."

"If the enemy makes a surprise attack, we will definitely die." The leader of the Aburame clan pushed up his sunglasses and added.

Tobirama silently clenched his fists, his knuckles were as pale as his face.

Facing the sighing colleagues, he took a few deep breaths, as if he was mentally building himself up, his eyes changed several times, and he finally made up his mind.

"I'm sorry, if I..."

"boom!"

The door was pushed open, like the mud seal of a clay pot was lifted, letting in the cool breeze.

Tobirama suddenly raised his head and looked over with everyone.

Uzumaki Mito stood in front of the door with a knife on her shoulder. The sunlight reflected the dazzling light on her armor. She looked around at the senior executives in the conference room and walked in quietly.

The current matron of Konoha Village still behaves elegantly and has a dignified manner, but she has shed her previous loose clothes and replaced them with a fully armed crimson layered armor.

Her bright, watery red hair has been combed into a smart high ponytail, and the corners of her eyes lightly swiped with eyeshadow are slender, like crimson blades.

"Leave all the enemies of the Kumo ninja's surprise attack force, including the Second Raikage, to me." She announced calmly, her tone as calm as if she was giving an order for a trivial matter.

"this......"

"You are Shodai's widow, and you are Seven Tails Jinchūriki. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to fight against the enemy alone..."

Uzumaki Mito waited patiently for everyone to finish speaking, then stood beside Tobirama and said slowly: "I can understand everyone's good intentions, but I am also a member of Konoha. To me, this is Not only is it my husband’s lifelong effort, but we also carry the dream of generations of people who long for peace. I will never tolerate the village being destroyed by war like this!”

Her voice was firm, and although she was a woman, it was sonorous and powerful. "What's more, there is no one more suitable than me in terms of ability or status!"

With her insistence, the senior officials stopped trying to dissuade her. Soon, she would lead a force to intercept the enemy and face the Second Raikage.

After the meeting ended, everyone left one after another, and only Tobirama and Mito were left in the huge conference room.

"Tobirama, the current situation is completely different from before. Don't apologize to them at any time." Mito said softly.

"I......"

"Even if you are really at fault, there is no need to apologize, because you are Hokage now!" Mito said: "If the military's morale is relaxed, it will shake the foundation."

Tobirama took a deep breath and nodded slightly, "I understand."

"Also, don't try to use the technique of summoning the undead."

There was a hint of sadness in Mito's eyes, "Hashirama has fulfilled his wish. His life is complete. Let him stay in the Pure Land with peace of mind. I... don't want to see his disappointed eyes."
