According to the results of the discussion, the rewards for the Tiger Force for completing the mission will be very generous, and all teams will receive an A-level mission record.
In addition, at the end of each battle, in the battle report submitted by Uchiha Yuu, 5 A-level task rewards can be proposed, and other teams will all be given B-level task records.
In addition, every time a jonin is killed, it is also an A-level mission reward, and Uchiha Yuu will designate the beneficiary.
According to the standards of ninja mission levels, confronting the jonin of the hostile big ninja village during the mission is a hard condition for A-level missions.
During the war, the jonin of each ninja village will be mobilized in large numbers, and the chance of encountering a jonin on the battlefield will greatly increase. However, the number of jonin only accounts for 1% of the total number of ninjas. From a probability perspective, you have to kill 100 enemies to encounter an enemy jonin.
So, Orochimaru inflicted heavy losses on the Tiger Force.
Of course, compared with the Third Hokage's later leniency towards Minato Namikaze, it is definitely a small thing.
In Minato's short 18-year ninja career, he completed a total of 323 A-level missions, including his Genin and Chunin days, which means he completed an A-level mission every 20 days on average.
There is definitely no problem with Minato Namikaze's strength, but just think about how much effort the Third Hokage had to put in behind the scenes in order for him to get so many high-level missions.
When Kaguya Kai's bones were completely burned and turned into a thick layer of white ashes, Orochimaru left with the supporting ninjas. They took away the bodies of the victims and nine seriously injured people who were disabled or seriously injured and difficult to recover.
With the treatment of medical ninjutsu, five seriously injured people recovered on the spot, demonstrating the magic of the extraordinary world.
The number of Tiger Force members was restored to 83 and reorganized into five teams. Even though the team was reduced in size, the captain of one team still had to serve as the captain of the support team.
But in general, the Tiger Unit's combat effectiveness is stronger because there are seven pairs of double Magatama Sharingan among the 83 people. Although they are not team captains, they take on the responsibilities of fighting against masters on behalf of the captains.
The ability of the double magatama Sharingan is replication, which can also be called insight. It is an extremely powerful ability in combat.
If the previous charge is launched with the current lineup, the five squad captains can always be in the command position, coordinating the transfer of responsibilities among the four teams of attack, support, support, and firepower. The casualties suffered by the Tiger Unit in the battle can be reduced by at least half.
Therefore, the Uchiha family is a fighting race. As long as there is war and sacrifice, they will become stronger and stronger until they go crazy or become Mangekyō Sharingan.
But Uchiha You didn't like this way of promotion. He conducted a detailed examination of the seven newly promoted double-magatama Sharingan, made the most in-depth psychological analysis, and confirmed the abnormality of their mental state.
If it weren't for this, they could at least be team captains.
Fortunately, I have laid a good foundation for them, and the mental illness does not directly affect their personality, so it is within the range of things that can be saved and treated.
The luckiest ones are the children who have not yet opened their eyes. The continuous battles and the sacrifices of their teammates have had an equally huge impact on them. However, their mental strength is ultimately insufficient as they have not yet opened their eyes. The fluctuations in their emotions make it impossible for their mental strength to break through the psychological barrier planted by Uchiha You.
Therefore, after this battle, many people awakened their double magatama, but no one opened their eyes.
But fighting, killing, winning, and witnessing sacrifice are all major changes that can turn a boy into a man overnight. The growth of the Uchiha Genins is visible to the naked eye, but it is forcibly suppressed by the psychological barriers.
After ten hours of buffering, everyone's emotions have stabilized, and the spiritual growth gained during the battle has begun to settle. Now is the most appropriate time to open their eyes.
There is no need to worry about the attack of the Kirigakure ninja. The Kaguya family has suffered a heavy blow this time, and there is an imbalance of power within the Kirigakure ninja army. They are busy dealing with their own problems, so they have no mood to retaliate against the Konoha ninja.
Of course, for safety reasons, Uchiha You arranged for the double magatama to be on duty, and asked Miwa Masayo to help monitor the seven double magatama to prevent them from having a brain crash.
He himself brought 76 Uchiha Genin to the flat ground outside the ruins and lined up in an orderly manner under the bright moonlight.
Uchiha You led everyone to plant the Hunyuan Pillar, guided them to relax their minds by sharing their minds, and then removed their psychological barriers one by one. The suppressed mental power suddenly erupted, and the fluctuations caused were even no less than the intense emotions.
This is a rebound after the heavy pressure and weight are lifted. It is a natural reaction of life itself. Although the effect is no worse than excited emotions, it obviously will not have any negative effects.
The mental power surged and easily crossed the limit of activating the potential of the blood. The power hidden in the blood was activated, and the glands hidden in the brain began to become active, absorbing chakra to produce a new power - the power of the Sharingan.
When the power of the Sharingan appeared, the eyes of the Uchiha boys began to change. The pupils were quickly stained with blood, and the power from the brain was projected into the eyes, reflecting its own magatama-shaped traces on the pupils.
First, the youngest Uchiha, almost all of them awakened the single magatama Sharingan one after another, and then starting from the four team captains, the double magatama Sharingan appeared one by one.
The powerful eye power exploded one after another, and the storm of power it created made the alert Uchiha look sideways.
Uchiha You used the loudest voice to remind everyone: "All those who have awakened the Sharingan, try your best to control your eye power. Uncontrolled eye power is harmful to the eyes!"
"The better the control, the less damage to the eyes, and the greater the possibility of further improvement in the future!"
When the Sharingan awakens, the release of pupil power is explosive and very difficult to control.
Especially when awakened by extreme emotions, the person's mind is often out of control, and the powerful pupil power is completely unrestrained, which may even cause serious damage to the eyes, causing black and red tears of blood to flow.
Only cultivators like Uchiha You, who regard the Uchiha bloodline as a special physique and use the results of their practice to reversely develop their body's potential, will have enough control to steadily control the burst of pupil power when awakening.
But now Uchiha You no longer has to worry, as his body has gained powerful self-healing abilities. The serious injuries he suffered in the previous battle were healed so well that not even a scar could be seen before Orochimaru arrived.
Moreover, he has not felt any loss of vitality, and it does not seem to affect his lifespan.
This is really the best news.
Uchiha You has always suspected that the untimely death of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was related to his amazing super self-healing ability in battle.
Perhaps it was during the battle with Uchiha Madara that the excessive use of Super Healing not only drained the First Hokage's chakra and natural energy, but also ultimately drained his life source, consuming his lifespan.
After an hour, the awakening process of the Tiger Unit was completed. All the Uchiha who had not opened their eyes awakened, and 13 of them who originally had single magatama Sharingan were promoted to double magatama.
In just this one hour, the Tiger Force's strength at least doubled.
The most important thing is that during this promotion process, everyone's emotions remained generally calm, and there were no changes due to negative emotions.
The Uchiha were extremely excited, and the boys, who had been completely sleepless, lit a bonfire and danced and sang happily, letting off some youthful energy.
…
On the Konoha side, there was a mixture of surprise and excitement, while on the Kirigakure side, there was gloom and sorrow, with lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain.
The sudden loss of five hundred elite ninjas was unbearable for the Kaguya clan. At least in the Kirigakure Ninja Army of the Land of Hot Springs, Kaguya Ren lost more than half of her voice and didn't even dare to speak loudly.
But the more serious loss was the death of Kaguya Kaiye. What the Kaguya family lost was not an elite jonin, but the heir to the head of the family.
Thinking about how furious the clan leader would be when this news got back to the Hidden Mist Village, Kaguya Ren became completely dejected.
The three giants who were standing on equal footing suddenly lost one of their legs, and the conflict between the remaining two giants naturally became fierce. Ling of the Snow Clan and Gui Deng Shuoyue of the Gui Deng Clan were both a little confused. This was not the result they wanted, but the invisible force behind them was pushing them forward, and they quarreled fiercely on everything.
Especially after the Hyuga clan suffered heavy losses, they had to give up many of the powers they had to fight for, and there were bloody fights, and secret armed conflicts occurred more than once.
This is a very necessary and unavoidable step in the reconstruction process after a power imbalance.
The truth that Ling and Gui Deng Shuoyue understood was not understood by the clansmen and dependants behind them. Only through head-on confrontation, struggle, and bloodshed, especially when they themselves bleed and suffer pain, will their inflated desires cool down, and they will honestly eat what they can eat and stop struggling.
Only when their respective interest groups calmed down, Ling and Hozuki Suigetsu were able to regain control of the situation, and by the way, they brought back Kaguya Ren and restored the model of the three giants in power.
At this time, two full days had passed since Kaguya Kaiye died in battle.
Kizuna Sakutsuki said regretfully: "Time has passed too quickly. Intelligence shows that a group of reinforcements from Konoha Village have approached the border. It is impossible for us to capture Tangquan City."
"It's too late in terms of time."
Ling continued, "The key now is to see how the Hidden Cloud Village reacts. If they attack the Hidden Leaf Village, we can pull out our reserve forces and use our greatest strength to push down Tangquan City."
Kizuna Sakutsuki nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, the key is Kumogakure's attitude."
"But the most important factor affecting Yunyin's attitude is our battle record, and the key to all this lies here..."
He fiercely tapped a point on the map, which was marked with pens of several colors. The circles of different colors made the name in the middle particularly eye-catching.
"Kubotamura!"
"It's all the fault of the idiots of the Kaguya clan. Five hundred of them attacked with all their might, but were beaten to death. Only thirty or forty vassal ninjas came back."
Ling glanced at the silent Kaguya Ren and said coldly, "Even those ninjas who finally came back were killed by a reckless idiot. We can't even figure out the course of the battle."
Kaguya Ren said in a hoarse voice: "It's no use asking. They were knocked to the ground by the Konoha ninjas who used Fire Style: Fire Bullet. Then they followed the crowd into the village in a daze. Then they saw Mukuya's bone spur cage and saw his bones being burned by flames. Then they ran back in a daze."
"There is only one piece of information that is useful to you. There are a large number of Uchiha clan ninjas who have opened the Sharingan among the Konoha ninjas."
He licked his cracked lips, looked at the two giants with bloodshot and murderous eyes, and said coldly: "There is only this one."
Hozuki Sakutsuki didn't take Kaguya Ren's look to heart at all. He whispered, "The Uchiha clan's ninjas have a large number of Sharingan, so they are really hard to deal with."
Ling frowned and thought hard about something. After a long while, he said, "I have never heard that there is a troop of Uchiha clan ninjas in Konoha Village. Aren't they all used in a dispersed manner?"
"Haha, who knows?"
"Maybe they fought too much with the Puppet Masters of the Sand Village and the Demolition Team of the Iwagakure Village in the last war, so they established a new unit based on their example."
"In short, our target is Kubota Village, the Konoha unit with a large number of Uchiha ninjas. We need to destroy them in front of the Kumogakure ninjas and let them choose Konoha as their enemy."
After hearing Gui Deng Shuo Yue's long speech, Hui Ye Lian asked disdainfully: "Who is going to attack? Say me first. My Hui Ye clan doesn't have the strength to attack anymore."
“…”
Gui Deng Shuoyue and Ling looked at each other and understood what the other meant. Neither of their families could go up.
If we suffer a heavy blow from above, the power that has been so hard to balance will be unbalanced again, and power struggle will inevitably arise again, and God knows how much time it will take.
By then, as long as the Cloud Ninjas have their brains intact, they will rush towards the Kirigakure Ninja Army without hesitation, and the Konoha Ninjas will also launch a counterattack. They will have no choice but to abandon their supplies and retreat to the sea in disgrace.
Ling sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do. I'll just have to let someone else do it."
Kizuna Sakutsuki also nodded: "Yes, we can't always be the ones sacrificing our three bloodline limit ninja clans. The rest of the ninja clans have to bleed and sacrifice for the Hidden Mist Village."
Kaguya Ren also perked up, grinning and saying, "Well said, my family's Mukuro also died in the battle, how can they stand in a safe place and watch?"
After the three people reached a consensus, the battle plan of the Kirigakure Ninja Army was finalized.
Kubota Village has become a salient, facing the Kirigakure ninja on three sides. The three major bloodline limit ninja clans each occupy one side, acting as a supervisory team, driving away other ninja clans and civilian ninjas, launching a saturation and continuous attack on the Konoha ninjas, using the absolute numerical advantage of twenty times, thirty times, or even fifty times, to drown the enemy alive.
Hui Ye Lian thought of a problem: "With so many people rushing into such a small village, most people can only be squeezed in the back and can't use their strength. What should we do?"
Ling and Gui Deng Shuoyue looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
Ling explained: "It is definitely impossible to attack all at once. We should attack in waves of 1,500 people to consume the enemy's strength to the greatest extent."
Kizuki continued, "All the ninjas who are not due to attack should use water jutsu on the periphery. No matter what ninjutsu they use, there is no need to worry about not being able to attack Kubota Village. What we want is to completely submerge this damn village with water."
"As long as the flood submerges the battlefield, the damn Konoha ninjas will be like rats, waiting for our slaughter in the flood."
"Good!" Kaguya Ren became more energetic and said excitedly, "This way we will definitely be able to kill all those Konoha ninjas."
"Such a good idea, why didn't you use it before?"
"Most of the people were fighting on the front lines before, so there weren't enough ninjas to do this. Only now that it's hopeless to attack Tangquan City can we withdraw all the troops and flood a high ground."
…
The Frost Village in the Land of the Moon was now completely controlled by the Hidden Cloud Ninjas, and the house of the leader of the Frost Village was naturally occupied by the Raikage.
The Raikage arrived here before the Kirigakure fleet approached. At that time, he judged that Kirigakure, which had never fought a tough battle, would definitely not have the courage to land directly in the Land of Lightning, nor would it land in the Land of Fire.
The target of Kirigakure can only be the Kingdom of the Moon and the Kingdom of Hot Spring, and the Kingdom of the Moon is an absolute vassal of the Kingdom of Lightning. In order to prevent the Kingdom of Lightning from suffering too much loss of interests, he made a special trip to the Frost Village in order to be able to counterattack Kirigakure as soon as possible and drive them into the sea.
The Raikage even withdrew ninjas from the Land of Hot Springs to strengthen the power of the Land of the Moon. As a result, the Kirigakure fleet attacked the Land of Hot Springs occupied by Konoha, and after landing, they attacked all the way to the southwest, as if they were determined to attack the Land of Fire.
In order to guard against the Kirigakure fleet using a sleight of hand, the Raikage did not leave immediately, but continued to stay in the Moon Country waiting for more specific information.
The Raikage lived in the luxuriously decorated courtyard of the leader of the Hidden Frost Village for a week. In just seven days, the Raikage's daily exercises almost destroyed the entire building.
The elegant and magnificent pond, diabolo, stone lanterns, pine trees and walls were all turned into shattered debris.
At this time, the Raikage, who had just completed his training, was listening to the latest information. He was very curious about the fact that the Konoha ninjas had defended the Kubota Village salient, and he focused on listening to the information related to this.
Hearing that the Konoha ninja troops had wiped out more than 500 elite ninja troops of the Hyuga clan in the second battle, the Third Raikage said with emotion: "If they win one more battle, they will definitely become the strongest ninja army."
"It took the Sand Village twenty years to create a puppeteer unit, the Rock Village fifteen years to build a blasting unit, and the Mist Village also came up with the Seven Great Swords, what a ridiculous thing."
"Well, no matter how ridiculous the Seven Great Swords are, they have come up with something. We in the Hidden Cloud Village have been working hard for ten years, but we still don't even have a suitable direction."
"Before these few days, I had never heard that Konoha Village was going to set up any ninja troops. This army seemed to be organized randomly. How could it be so powerful?"
"It's so enviable that I don't know what to say."
Jonin Dodai couldn't help but shake his head. The manpower and financial resources of Konoha Village were really overwhelming.
The Third Raikage wiped off the sweat and dust on his body and ordered: "Let's go to the Land of Hot Springs."
"Third Raikage, who are we going to fight?"
"Who to fight? The Kirigakure Shinobi Army is doomed to lose, so we in Kumogakure have to go and give the fallen dog a beating."
