The reincarnation of the Uchiha family

Chapter 148 The Outbreak of War

The third generation obviously realized Ming Jing's current level of ninjutsu during this process. Considering that Ming Jing's current strength is stronger than most of the jounin in the village, it cannot be justified that he is still a special jounin, so He took out a document and signed it, promoting Ming Jing to Jonin.

He thought that he had conquered the heart of this Uchiha brat now, so naturally he would not deliberately suppress Ming Jing's ninja title.

"Congratulations, Ming Jing, you are a 14-year-old jounin. I happened to become a jounin at this time, but I was not as strong as you when I was 14 years old."

Namikaze Minato sat next to Kushina, held Kushina's hand, and sincerely congratulated Ming Jing.

"The 14-year-old jounin happens to be the same as Tsunade and you. If I remember correctly, the village has been established for so many years, and the youngest jounin record has always been 14 years old."

Sarutobi Hiruzen leaned against the tree trunk comfortably, basking in the sun.

"Tch, old man, if Ming Jing hadn't been studying ninjutsu and swordsmanship a year ago, and spent too much time learning medical ninjutsu with me, maybe he could do more than just tie the record. .”

Tsunade sipped her wine and said lazily.

Things here were almost over, and she wanted to go to the casino, but it was a pity that she didn't have much money with her.

But fortunately, there is an apprentice nearby. I think Mingjing has done so many tasks during this period, so he should have a lot of money, right?

But as a teacher, she was too embarrassed to directly ask her apprentice for money. The third generation and Kushina were still watching here.

It would be better to find an excuse later to take Ming Jing away to assess how well he has mastered the medical ninjutsu, and by the way, give a brief hint that the teacher is currently short of money...

Just when Tsunade was still happily thinking about how she would kill everyone in the casino after getting the money, an ANBU hurried from a distance and handed a document to the third generation.

The third generation's face gradually became extremely solemn, and his brows were furrowed.

"Old man, what happened to make you look like this?"

Tsunade turned her head and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Hey!"

The third generation sighed heavily and transferred the document in his hand to Tsunade's hand.

"There is nothing to hide. Duan has just brought back information that the third Kazekage of Sunagakure Village has disappeared. Chiyo and Rasa, who succeeded the Fourth Kazekage, believe it is Konoha's fault. They are already deploying troops and collecting supplies. I'm afraid they won't be able to survive. How soon will war be declared on Konoha?"

The third generation depressedly lit his pipe and took a puff.

"The peace that has been barely maintained for more than two years is about to break out again."

Tsunade looked at the document in her hand and frowned as well.

"Anbu, notify several senior officials to prepare for a meeting. Tsunade, go and ask Orochimaru and Dan to attend. You will be in charge of the battlefield this time."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took the Hokage hat and Hokage robe from the hands of the ANBU next to him, arranged them a little, took big steps, and rushed towards the Hokage building.

"Is the war... going to start again?"

Namikaze Minato looked at the horizon in the distance and murmured.

"Wherever there are people, there will be fights and fights, and war will happen sooner or later."

Ming Jing stretched and stood up from the ground.

"Let's go, Minato, it's time to get ready. There will probably be a Jonin meeting later."

This was Ming Jing's first time attending a Jonin meeting.

Because this day was the day when he became a Jonin.

As the saying goes, there are big meetings for small things, and small meetings for big things. For a big event like the outbreak of war, naturally, the candidates for the three senior officials of Konoha and Orochimaru, Tsunade and Kato Dan will be selected first. After everyone stayed together for a small meeting, the jounin tournament was started.

Except for a small number of jounin who were on missions outside, most of Konoha's nearly two hundred jounin were present.

In Konoha's ecological system, jounin is below the Hokage and a small number of high-level ninjas who have considerable say. They are also above most of Konoha's middle genin. They play a connecting role in Konoha's political system. role.

Whatever the Hokage and the higher-ups want to do, they cannot do everything personally. They can only leave it to the trusted Jonin. Therefore, if you want to be the Hokage, you must at least win the majority of the village's top leaders in the vote of the Jonin. Only by trusting Shinobu, otherwise he will never be able to control Konoha in the future. This is also one of the most important powers in the hands of Konoha jounin.

As for the Jonin Conference like this, basically a lot of things are just a formality to see if these Jonin have any suitable suggestions worth adopting, or if there are any major objections, and then start to allocate and arrange them. work.

Therefore, after the evaluation of many high-level officials and the approval of many jounin, the command of the Western Front battlefield was taken over by Kato Dan, with Tsunade as Kato Dan's deputy.

In fact, at first, Danzo wanted to support Orochimaru to serve as a commander and gain military exploits so that Orochimaru could later compete for the position of Hokage, but Orochimaru refused directly.

His experiment has reached a very important stage, and Orochimaru, who is thinking about eternal life, does not want these things to disturb his development of forbidden techniques.

In this command position, Kato Dan himself is more competitive than Orochimaru.

It's not that Kato Dan's strength and command ability are stronger than Orochimaru's, it's mainly that he is more suitable.

On the one hand, in the later stages of the Second Ninja War, it was Kato Dan who took over White Fang's position, led Konoha to defeat Sunagakure, and became more familiar with the people of Sunagakure Village. On the other hand, it was also because of Tsunade's medical detoxification. Ability can be of greater use when facing the poison makers of Sand Hidden Village.

The two of them are indeed the best candidates to deal with Sunagakure Village. Sarutobi Hiruzen also hopes to send two top combat forces at once to end the war with Sunagakure as soon as possible.

Because at this time, it is very likely that other major ninja villages will directly take advantage of the situation and further expand the war, forming a new Third Ninja War that will sweep the ninja world.

"Teacher Duan, Teacher Tsunade, there is something I think I need to tell you."

After the Jonin meeting, Mingjing approached Tsunade and Kato Dan.

"Is it about the previous mission?"

Tsunade crossed her arms and squeezed out a deep ravine, with a look on her face that was indeed the case.

"Ah."

Ming Jing nodded gently.

He can see many things, and others can naturally see them too.

"I already mentioned this matter to the old man when I went to the meeting. The old man said that he realized that Danzo was intending to attack you after you set off, so he sent Minato to find Jiraiya. support."

"What did the third generation say?"

"What the old man means is that we are now in a war period and Danzo's roots are needed. He will liquidate Danzo after the war is over, but I guess this matter will be settled by then."

Tsunade spread her hands helplessly. "The old man just likes to get along with each other like this, but this guy Danzo, except for the old man who is the Hokage, really no one can control Danzo. If we want to deal with him, we have to do it ourselves."

After hearing Tsunade's words, Ming Jing actually felt pretty good.

Because judging from Tsunade's intention, she planned to stand on her side to deal with Danzo together.

"You attack our most proud disciple for no reason, but you have to fight back no matter what, to let Danzo know that we are not easy to mess with!"

Kato Dan was also very unhappy with Danzo.

He is the one who wants to compete for Hokage. As a result, you, Danzo, plan to attack my most proud disciple. If he doesn't fight back, what will those who follow Kato Dan think of him?
He must fight back, both emotionally and rationally.

"Just look at what Duan and I do about this matter. In terms of background, no one in the village is older than me. In terms of intelligence capabilities, there is no one in the village who can compare with Duan. As for you, It is still too early to start contacting the darkness of the village. At least now Duan and I can completely protect you. What you should do most is to strengthen your own strength and stand at the same height as Duan and I."

Tsunade smiled and patted her hand on Ming Jing's shoulder.

Now Kato Dan is the squad leader of the jounin class, and Tsunade is also the director of Konoha's medical department. In addition, Kato Dan has gathered forces and the connections and influence of the Senju clan. If I really want to cause trouble, Sarutobi Hiruzen can't do it no matter what. You have to make a statement in response.

The current Tsunade is not like the one in the original time and space who suffered from hemophobia and became self-defeating.

As a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen, she knew very well that Sarutobi Hiruzen's character would definitely pursue stability, and if he wanted to appease them and gain stability within the village, Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely agree to their request.

At least he would agree to part of it and choose to settle the matter.

In the afternoon of that day, Konoha began to quickly mobilize ninja troops and draw out the reserved war supplies according to the arrangements made at the previous Jonin meeting.

And just the day before the army set off, Sarutobi Hiruzen issued an order.

Danzo Shimura was relieved of his position as leader of the Roots, and Orochimaru, now the second-in-command of the Roots, took over.

Orochimaru, who originally planned to stay quietly underground and continue his experimental research, had to walk out of the laboratory because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's order and arranged the root work.

"Report, Dan-sama, Tsunade-sama, the entire medical team is ready!"

"All members of the intelligence team have arrived!"

"The reconnaissance team has arrived!"

……

One after another, jounin or special jounin were reporting in front of Tsunade and Kato Dan.

This is the training ground closest to the gate of Konoha, and it is also one of the largest training grounds in Konoha. Generally, if a war breaks out and ninja troops need to be gathered, it will be done here.

"Master Duan, all the logistics troops have arrived, and all supplies have exceeded 20.00% of the pre-required quantity."

When Shiroun Tokinobu was the last one to report the work of the logistics unit to Kato Dan, the [-] Konoha ninjas who were going on this expedition had already gathered at the training ground.

"Ban, Tsunade, this time, the safety of the village is in your hands."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, wearing the Hokage robe, spoke earnestly to Tsunade and Kato Dan in front of him.

"Sandaime-sama, don't worry, even if it costs my life, I will do my best to protect the village!"

Kato Dan replied with determination in his eyes.

"Old man, are you still worried about us doing things?"

Tsunade smiled freely and looked at Kato Dan.

Kato Suan nodded slightly to Tsunade, turned around, and looked at the thick crowd behind him.

"I will do my best to win victory for the village, and then take everyone back to Konoha alive after the war is over! Let's go!"

The army set out, formed an orderly team, and walked out of Konoha's gate under the watchful eyes of the villagers bidding farewell along the street.

"Unexpectedly, only two years later, the war would start again."

Among the bustling crowds on the roadside, Uchiha Yu looked at the huge team leaving in the distance and couldn't help but sigh.

"War..."

Next to Uchiha Yu, Shisui held the hand of his father Uchiha Tatsumi and stared blankly into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking in his mind.

"Every war is accompanied by the sacrifice of countless people, just like your grandfather, Shisui, them, and your cousin Mingjing, they all protect the village with their lives, they are the real heroes. "

Uchiha Tatsu's eyes were also in a daze.

As an Uchiha, when he was a child, he also dreamed of becoming a ninja, defeating enemies in war, and becoming a hero like his father Uchiha Mirror. However, congenital lung disease completely prevented all his fantasies.

"Shisui, you have to remember that the Uchiha clan is a clan born for fighting. The reputation of the Uchiha is also forged with the blood and bones of the enemy on the battlefield. If you want not to disgrace the reputation of the family, you must You must train yourself to be more powerful! In a few months, the ninja school will start. I hope you can be the first in your class like Ming Jing. This is my first request for you! "

Uchiha Yu's voice sounded a little harsh.

Zhisui nodded ignorantly, watching the distant team gradually disappear on the horizon.

……

……

The country of the river.

This is a small country located on the west side of the Country of Fire. Like the Country of Rivers, it is a buffer zone between the two large countries of the Country of Fire and the Country of Wind.

Since there are no ninja villages, their territory is almost undefended to the powerful Sunagakure Village.

"The River Country has actually fallen in a short period of time..."

Tsunade looked at the map, lost in thought.

"The top priority is to first establish a solid defense line in the uneven terrain of Kawano Country, strangle the main roads in various places, and curb Sunagakure's aggressive momentum, and then organize a counterattack based on the situation on the battlefield to push them back."

Kato Suan drew a crooked line on the map with his finger.

"If we concentrate our forces mainly at these locations, we can effectively occupy the geographical advantages and form a counterattack against Sunagakure."
