Chapter 389: Meeting while in power!
After having a heart-to-heart talk with Ryoka Suzune, Shiro quickly adjusted his state. There were no accidents on the road afterwards, and everything was basically within Shiro and the others' expectations.
Well, including the continuous attacks from Kirigakure
Of course, the intensity this time was not comparable to the time with Biwa Juzo and the others. It was basically harassment from some ninja students who were not even Genin.
The youngest among them is only nine years old. I don’t know what kind of candy the ninja in front ate, but such a person can be allowed in.
There was no danger along the way, and there were fewer injuries, not to mention casualties. However, the relentless harassment eventually wasted their time.
Needless to say, once he arrived at the front line, Uchiha would definitely be scolded again.
The Kirigakure they met along the way also improved the character of Ayue and the others a lot. After all, killing adult ninjas with sins on their hands was more difficult to accept than killing some of the same age as them or even younger than Shisui and the others.
Of course, not all of them were killed. Some of the younger and simple-minded ones were sent back to the village for re-education through channels along the way.
Those who perform well can be transformed into the village's combat power, and they also have the opportunity to be formally organized. Those who perform poorly, well, will be subjected to all the same treatment as before.
This kind of thing is quite common in various ninja villages. After all, these people can be confirmed to have ninja talent. Even if they are a little lacking, it doesn't matter. Leaving their bloodline can also increase the chance of a ninja appearing.
If you're luckier, you might even get a bloodline limit or something.
Of course, this is not without its drawbacks, as some of the spies in the villages came from this way.
But this has nothing to do with Shiro and the others. They are only responsible for sending them back. The rest is the business of the interrogation department.
Finally, a month after leaving the village, Shiro and his companions arrived at the front line. In addition to Kirigakure, there were also
"Chief Fugaku! Can you explain why your reinforcements took so long to arrive!?"
Suddenly, an angry shout resounded throughout the camp, attracting the other ninjas to look towards the tent in the center.
In the tent, Shiro and Fugaku looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. Sometimes it is like this, the most uncomfortable thing is not the sudden attack, but that you already know that the other party will attack, but it is difficult to find an excuse.
Just like now, when Shiro and his companions arrived, the leader of an unknown small family in the tent suddenly shouted at Fugaku, while the other family representatives said nothing and just watched the show quietly.
They will not participate in suppressing the Uchiha clan, but it is impossible to ask them to help the Uchiha clan. The title of Konoha's number one powerful clan is of great significance.
Well, except in the hands of Uchiha, therefore, if there is a chance, they still hope that Uchiha will give up the throne. After all, this title is like nothing in their hands, a typical case of occupying the toilet without doing anything.
Faced with the questioning, Shirou patted Fugaku, who was about to explain, under the table, and signaled him to speak. Fugaku thought about it and agreed.
They Uchiha will definitely be targeted. No matter what he says now, it will be useless. It would be better to let Shiro act as a peacemaker or troublemaker and stir up trouble. Anyway, he is of the right age.
This is only Fugaku. If it were any other Uchiha elder, would he persuade? It would be a blessing if he didn't use fire escape when he opened his mouth to scold.
"Well, um~ Dong Hai Muwu, right?"
"Yes, I'm honored that Lord Emiya remembers my name!" Hearing that Shirou knew his name, Toumigu suddenly stood up excitedly, bowed to Shirou, and accused,
"Lord Emiya, I think the Uchiha's actions of delaying the battle are a waste of time."
Unfortunately, Dong Hai Muwu's idea of taking the opportunity to sue Uchiha was cut short just as it began. Facing Dong Hai Muwu's accusation, Shi Lang waved his hand and interrupted him. "Are you kidding me? You're suing my allies? What do you mean?"
What’s the difference between this and the question of “Who in this court is suing me?”
So, with nothing more to say, Shiro cut him off.
"Let's put that aside for now. I remember you because of your position. I remember that your family is responsible for the daily maintenance of the bird puppets, right? Can you explain to me why all the bird puppets were put into maintenance before the battle?"
"Sir, I think the Uchiha situation is more..."
"What do you think? Who do you think you are? I am the one in charge of this war zone now, and I am the only one who thinks here!"
"So, now either listen to me, or you continue talking and disrupt the order on the front line and become a rebel ninja." After saying that, Shiro crossed his fingers, leaned on the table, and looked at him quietly.
The other people in the tent also turned their heads to look at Donghai Muwu with a smile. They knew that he was a teenager, but he still dared to talk back. At this age, even if his nature was not like that and he did it on purpose, no one could do anything about it. This was the privilege of a genius.
He is so fierce, no wonder he was thrown out to take the lead.
"." Toumigu was silent for a moment, then bowed to Shiro, "I'm sorry, Lord Emiya, I'm ignorant."
Then he sat down.
"Well, okay, let's continue, um, what were we talking about just now? Fugaku-senpai."
"At this moment, all the bird puppets in the village are paralyzed."
"Oh, I remember now." Shiro raised his head exaggeratedly, and then said, "Bird Puppet, I remember there are regular inspections, right? How could it go wrong at this time?"
"Do you have anything to say about this, Muwu-senpai?"
"Sir, our family has always taken care of the bird puppets immediately and has never been delayed. We don't know why this happened this time."
"So you're saying there's something wrong with my technique?"
"I dare not."
"We are at war now. I will not delve into the reasons why my bird puppets have been fine in my family for the past three years, but yours has been in trouble. I will also discuss why the Uchiha clan was unable to provide timely support, and why, despite your tight defense, a large number of Mist Ninjas were still ambushing us on the road."
"I don't want to talk about these things right now. What we should do now is prepare for war. What do you think?"
Before anyone else could speak, Fugaku spoke first, "Yes, Lord Emiya, it's okay for us to suffer a little injustice. As long as it's for the village, this little sacrifice is nothing!"
Under Fugaku's lead, others also spoke up, saying that the defense was careless and they should work harder in the future.
Of course, after he spoke, the heads of other families almost all looked at Fugaku with strange eyes.
Originally, they were a little skeptical about the information sent back from the village. How could the proud Uchiha do such a thing? Now...
Sure enough, we are too naive, we don’t understand the world of the underworld
In the following time, Shilang listened carefully to everyone's report on the general intelligence of the battlefield. While listening, Shilang thought about the battle plan.
It is impossible to act recklessly. Kirigakure has two big tailed beasts. In addition, the environment here is not favorable for Shukaku, and Kirigakure is not weak either. They may not win.
To put it another way, even if they won, it would be a pyrrhic victory, and given Konoha's current situation, it would be of no use.
The next day, everyone was still sitting in the tent discussing battle strategies, constantly assigning teams to go to different locations to initiate local battles and expand the war situation.
Of course, Shiro just watched these things from the side and didn't give any orders. He was not particularly good at this.
To put it bluntly, he, as a commander, is just a thug, and Shiro himself knows this, so except for the first day when he used this identity to suppress the Uchiha.
The rest of the time, he just had a serious face and nodded.
Then it was gone.
Those who can report here are basically feasible. Those who are unreliable have been passed over long ago, so his job is simple.
The others felt relieved when they saw his attitude was completely different from the first day.
If Shiro continues to act recklessly like he did that day, they will really have to worry.
Fortunately, Shilang did not do what they expected, which made them feel much more at ease, and the subsequent work went smoothly.
Finally, half a month later, good news came, well, good news for Shilang.
Reinforcements from other Konoha families arrived, including his former teammate, Nara Shikaaki.
Lu Ming's arrival was a timely relief for Shi Lang. Although he only needed to nod his head when it came to matters in the war zone, it was exhausting to sit there and listen to their analysis every day, especially since he didn't understand what they were saying.
It would be better to do research. Shiro is very interested in that thing now and doesn't find it boring anymore.
Unfortunately, he has to listen to these things, which makes him very uncomfortable.
Now that Lu Ming is here, he has absolute trust in Lu Ming, and the Nara clan is generally responsible for such matters. Therefore, Shilang is relieved to leave these matters to him.
The arrival of Lu Ming and the others did not cause much trouble, including Silang and the others. Although the three of them had not been together for a long time, the war was more important now.
Shiro is fine, but Taichi has hardly stopped since he came here, and has been doing various tasks. Not only him, but the entire Uchiha is like this.
Not only do they have their own tasks, but they also have other people's tasks, and they are actively helping.
The future of the Uchiha clan cannot be changed by one or two decrees. Without changing other people's inherent impression of them, it will be difficult for the Uchiha clan to change unless they take charge of the village.
Therefore, under Fugaku's orders, the Uchiha people now transformed into enthusiastic people and provided support everywhere.
As the high-end combat force of Uchiha, Taiyi naturally doesn't have much time.
The same thing happened to Silang and Lu Ming. The war was urgent, so they didn't catch up much. After explaining the general situation to Lu Ming, Silang went to the logistics department to pick up the three children and two girls, accepted a mission, and set off.
The mission they received was simple, which was to surround and kill several teams of Kirigakure patrol personnel.
Originally, Shiro planned to split them into two pairs, one for Shisui and his group, and one for Ryoka and his group, but when they surrounded and killed the first group of Kirigakure.
Shiro found that he had underestimated their strength. Judging from the current combat power of the Kirigakure patrol, fighting in a small team would not provide them with much training effect.
Except A Yue.
But it was impossible for Azuki alone to affect the progress of Shisui and Souji, so Shiro thought about it and decided to redistribute it.
Except for A Yue, everyone has to deal with a pair of Kirigakure patrol teams alone, which is almost one against three. Most of the opponents are one Chunin and two Genin, so this should not be difficult.
And with Shiro on hand to support us, there shouldn't be any accidents.
The first to go into battle was Suzune, and her battle plan was the simplest.
The ones from Kirigakure are patrol teams, and they basically have a relatively fixed route, so things are very simple. Just find a place to hide, set up a position, and wait quietly for them to arrive.
A very traditional magician's tactic, not eye-catching, but decent and stable.
In the end, without any surprise, Lingyin won the victory. She walked out of the hiding place leisurely and revoked all the magic marks, leaving only a pile of corpses chopped into pieces by silk threads.
"Emiya-sama, it's done."
Looking at the well-behaved Lingyin in front of him, Shilang smiled helplessly. How could this cute girl like to use such bloody methods?
There's nothing I can do. It's my own child, what else can I do? I'll just let her go.
So, Shiro touched her head and led everyone to the next location. This time, it was Shisui who was to carry out the mission.
Shisui lay in the grass beside the stream, straightened the short knife on his back to make it easier to draw, and then hid it quietly.
Meanwhile, Shiro and the others watched Shisui fight quietly from the sky above the stream.
After a while, the Kirigakure patrol arrived. Unfortunately, they were not stupid. When they approached the area, their speed dropped instantly. At the same time, they looked around vigilantly.
Especially the bushes where people can hide are the focus of their inspection.
The current Kirigakure has launched the Blood Mist Project for some time. They don't have those idlers who chat and gossip on the battlefield. They are basically elites, and again, they are inhuman machines.
(This is speculation. In the original novel, when Lin died, they called themselves the Village of Blood Mist.)
Therefore, it is basically impossible for Shisui to successfully ambush, but Shisui did not think that he could win by ambush. All he needed was an initiative.
And it doesn't matter whether he has it or not, anyway, he has enough confidence in his own strength! Even without Rejoice!
Just like that, Shisui lay quietly in the grass, holding the short knife behind his back with his right hand at a special angle to ensure that he would not expose himself, and slowly waited for the arrival of the Mist Ninja.
Slowly, a scarred Mist Ninja began to approach Shisui.
Watching the Mist Ninja getting closer and closer, Shisui tightened his right hand, constantly estimating the distance between them and the probability of a successful sneak attack. At the same time, Shiro in the sky also tightened his right hand, ready to provide support at any time.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in from afar with a loud noise. Scar Mist Ninja first turned his head sharply to look in that direction, then he caught a glimpse of black clothes out of the corner of his eye and turned his head back in an instant!
"Sharingan!"
"Swish! Puff!"
At the first encounter, Scar Mist Ninja was controlled by the Sharingan, and then, his throat was cut with a single blow!
At this time, the other two also discovered Shisui, and without caring about the side where the loud noise occurred, they rushed straight towards Shisui!
A pair of Sharingan looked at them indifferently, Shisui held the short sword in reverse, formed seals with both hands, and created dozens of clones!
"The Technique of Instantaneous Body Transformation!"
Thank you for the 4000 reward from Danhuasi Nian, especially after what I did... I really appreciate your support!
