Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

Once you get used to it, you simply can't stop.

To know.

Even in the ninja world, where strength is paramount, money and resources are still extremely important.

He was especially surprised by Nara Kazama.

It's utterly shameless.

Their behavior is completely different from that of the Nara clan in the original work.

But imagining it, it seems normal.

The original work portrays it so beautifully, with its Will of Fire, it seems like a fairy tale.

But what's the reality?

This is a powerful force; how could it be as perfect as in the original story?

Even Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Nabekage, who were talked about with great interest in the previous generation, were only able to reveal their true colors because they were in the main storyline.

Families like the Ino-Shika-Cho, Aburame, and Inuzuka families, while featured in the original work, rarely appear in the main storyline.

But think about it.

How could someone who can truly form a family be a naive and good person?

The Nara clan, in particular, are known for their strategic thinking.

These families, like the capitalists of the past, may appear glamorous on the surface, but in reality, they are ruthless predators.

That's more like it!

As for the Uchiha?

Perhaps because he was born into the lineage of Indra, the Sage of Six Paths, his strength was too great from beginning to end, and he simply disdained to learn these underhanded methods.

Before the founding of Konoha, it was an era dominated by clans.

The Uchiha clan, relying solely on their strength, was able to dominate a region, and apart from the Senju clan, they were virtually invincible.

But, unfortunately.

With the establishment of Konoha, the major ninja clans began to join forces, while the Uchiha clan was in deep internal strife.

The Uchiha clan doesn't understand political maneuvering, and their top geniuses have been misled by the Hokage.

Otherwise, extermination of the entire clan?

What an international joke!

After figuring this out, Uchiha remembered a saying.

Sir, times have changed!

Thinking of this, his lips twitched, and then he took a deep breath and spoke.

"How about this."

"We'll split the explosive tags equally, and you'll be in charge of the medicinal herbs."

"Anyway, the Nara clan's property is your own, so it will be a little easier for you to take action."

"As for dividing the money, let's wait until the war is over."

Nara Kazama, of course, had no objection to this.

He took out a new scroll, put half of the explosive tags inside, and then rolled it up and threw it to Uchiha Jin.

Uchiha Jin didn't look at it and casually put it away.

He believed in Nara Kazama.

As the most intelligent members of the Nara clan, there's no need for them to provoke him, an Uchiha, over such a trivial matter.

……

A few minutes later, Shin Kudo woke up.

Uchiha Jin and Nara Kazama also happened to finish dividing the spoils and rushed over.

As a strategist, Nara Kazama naturally had to agree to explain such matters.

"Captain, I'm so sorry."

"Although we repelled the Hidden Mist Village, Jin and I were of low strength. We only managed to kill three people despite our best efforts, and we only managed to save one cartload of supplies."

"We have sealed the bodies of the three Hidden Mist ninjas in the scroll."

"As for Ishikawa Itsuki, sigh!"

"Well, that's a long story!"

"..."

Kazama Nara is full of emotion.

Of course, some people also started saying that his performance talent was too good.

A few words.

Not only did they highlight their own contributions, but they also pinned all the blame for the lost supplies on Ishikawa Itsuki.

In conclusion, it's all this idiot's fault!

If he hadn't ignored advice, he would have remained blindly confident.

Otherwise, if the three of them combined their strength, even if they couldn't kill the Hidden Mist ninja, they could at least barely protect themselves.

But, there is no way.

Not only was this guy weak, but he also wouldn't listen to their advice and insisted on rushing out like an idiot, only to be dealt with by the Hidden Mist Village.

Now, he is seriously injured.

It was only thanks to the two of them relying on the 'Will of Fire' that they managed to rescue this guy while guarding the supplies; otherwise, this idiot would have been killed long ago.

So, to put it bluntly, it's all the fault of this idiot.

otherwise.

If everyone works together to protect the supplies, why all this trouble?

Uchiha Jin was also greatly shocked after hearing this.

This is... numb.

As expected of Nara!

If this guy hadn't spoken up, he really wouldn't have known that he was so great.

So I am also a successor of the 'Will of Fire'!

boom!

Upon waking up, Shin Kudo immediately punched a tree in anger.

"That Ishikawa Itsuki is such a useless piece of trash!"

"I knew this person was arrogant a long time ago, but I didn't expect him to be so ignorant of his place."

"Don't you know our mission isn't to kill the enemy, but to transport supplies?"

"I understand about this."

"I will report to Lord Miyamoto once we reach the front-line camp!"

Yes.

Shin Kudo truly believed it.

Although he didn't witness it firsthand and their interactions were brief, he understood Ishikawa Itsuki's personality.

That's something he's capable of doing.

Of course, more importantly.

Itsuki Ishikawa is not dead!

Once he wakes up, hand him over to the front-line camp, and the secret service will naturally be able to extract the truth from him.

There's no need for Uchiha Jin and Nara Kazama to tell such lies.

Of course, more importantly, now that the supplies have been lost, someone has to take the blame.

Otherwise, all three of them will be punished.

The village doesn't care about the reasons, only the specific results.

But things are different now.

Now that someone has taken the blame, even if they haven't done anything meritorious, at least they won't be punished.

As for Ishikawa Itsuki?

No one cares whether he lives or dies.

None of the three people present liked him.
