Hokage: Unable to persuade Madara, I chose to build my own ninja village.

Chapter 92 Report: Our department is operating smoothly! Our department is operating smoothly!

"You scum of Kumogakure, we're here to negotiate!"

"Hmph, so it's that bastard from Akatsuki!"

"You think you can extort money from our Hidden Cloud Village? Dream on!!"

"You black-blooded bastard from Kumogakure, I'll curse your ancestors! Give me a straight answer: surrender or not?"

To ensure everything went smoothly, Uchiha Makoto personally led a team to provoke them. As expected, both sides were actually holding back their anger.

Because of public opinion and propaganda.

The Akatsuki ninja felt that the Kumogakure had deliberately provoked the conflict, killing two of their Chunin. Afterwards, the Kumogakure ninja were ungrateful and refused to repent or compensate them. Now that they had encountered the Kumogakure ninja, they wanted nothing more than to rush up and avenge the dead Chunin.

The Hidden Cloud Village, on the other hand, felt that the Hidden Akatsuki Village was blind and bullying others by taking advantage of its power.

Anyway, the two groups couldn't agree on anything when they met, and soon they started arguing.

Both sides kept talking trash to each other.

Then both sides got really angry during the argument.

The Cloud Village ninjas' eyes were filled with anger, and their faces were hostile. Some even reached into their ninja tool pouches.

However, although the ninjas from Akatsuki Village were unhappy, Uchiha Makoto had given orders in advance to suppress them, so they did not act recklessly. They just carefully guarded against surprise attacks from the ninjas from Kumogakure Village.

At last!

"Damn Akatsuki ninjas, you've really gone too far!"

"Fuck your mother!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

It was unclear which Cloud Village ninja had lost control of their emotions, but suddenly they cursed, followed by the sound of several shuriken slicing through the air.

Uchiha Makoto's smile widened, as if he wanted to immediately whip his hair around and shout, "Finally, he fucking fell for it!"

He immediately gave a signal with his hand.

Subsequently, the Akatsuki ninjas behind Uchiha Makoto, having received their orders, were prepared and rushed towards the Cloud Village ninjas without any hesitation.

The Kumogakure ninja who had just been trash-talking with them didn't expect that the Akatsuki ninja came prepared.

Moreover, it was a case of the many ganging up on the few!

That's really unethical, a sneak attack!

soon.

There were no unexpected events.

The battle situation became one-sided!

"The Hidden Cloud Village has repeatedly ignored our Akatsuki Village's warnings, not only deliberately murdering two of our Chunin, but also attacking the Akatsuki Village's negotiation delegation, seriously threatening the safety of our delegation!"

"The Akatsuki village, having reached its limit of tolerance, was forced to launch a defensive counterattack!"

After dealing with a few unlucky Cloud Village ninja on their routine patrols along the border, Uchiha Makoto and his squad made some adjustments, awaiting the arrival of the main force. While drafting a new statement to be disseminated throughout the ninja world the next day, he asked the ninja responsible for filming the Cloud Village's initial attack, "Did you get a clear picture of the Cloud Village's attack?"

"Master of Light and Shadow, everything is captured clearly!"

"Remember to edit it out and remove the parts where we swear."

The ninja in charge of filming looked troubled: "Huh?? This kind of thing seems difficult to do, doesn't it?"

"You just don't understand the basic principles of photography! Open your eyes and look at the world! A few third-rate scoundrels can do this kind of thing!"

"Study this carefully! Don't let this happen again. If outsiders find out, they'll say that all the ninjas in Akatsuki are good-for-nothings, and you'll be a sinner against Akatsuki!"

"Yes, Lord Light and Shadow."

The ninja was so humiliated by the insults that he couldn't lift his head and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

However, Makoto Uchiha didn't make things too difficult for him. He just gave him a verbal reprimand and told him to brush up on the basic principles of photography afterwards, and that was the end of it.

After receiving the signal flare, the main force of Akatsuki Village immediately followed up, and Uchiha Makoto did not intend to waste this excellent window of opportunity.

Based on the comparison of strength between Kumogakure and Akatsuki, the situation is not as optimistic as Uchiha Makoto imagined; there is no significant difference in strength between the two villages.

Akatsuki's advantage lies in the fact that this attack was a surprise attack, and they also have ample funds to support their logistics. In the absence of unforeseen circumstances, Akatsuki can do nothing and keep fighting with Kumogakure for a whole year, slowly bleeding Kumogakure dry, and finally accumulating the overwhelming advantage of a flying dragon rushing in.

However, Kumogakure has the advantage of fighting on home soil, and the number of ninjas they can use for defense is also superior.

In order to gain the strategic advantage as much as possible.

Therefore, the battles in the early stages must be fought quickly and decisively, taking advantage of the time when the First Raikage has not yet reacted, and sparing no expense or cost to wipe out the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village and eliminate the village's manpower.

Prepare for the upcoming war of attrition!

According to intelligence.

Along Akatsuki Village's planned offensive route, Kumogakure Village constructed five key defensive lines, extending from the front to the back of Kumogakure Village headquarters.

Uchiha Makoto did not linger on the border, and led his men to launch a surprise attack and rush across the border overnight.

The first line of defense.

under night.

Fire, blood, and slaughter will intertwine in the darkness, composing a symphony.

"Damn it!"

"So many explosive tags, how despicable!"

"Has your Akatsuki village gone mad?"

"This is a blatant act of war. The Hidden Cloud Village will not let you get away with this, and neither will our Raikage."

The Cloud Village ninja stationed at the first line of defense had bloodshot eyes and roared hoarsely.

However, his tone showed that he was timid.

The three squads responsible for night watch totaled twenty people, including three Jonin. They were all silently eliminated. The remaining nearly three hundred ninjas were caught off guard by the Akatsuki's advance raiding squad while they were still dreaming.

The area inside the defensive line was ablaze with fire.

The countless explosive tags had stunned the ninjas of Kumogakure, leaving them unprepared for any proper counterattack.

The fate of these people has long been determined!

The Kaguya clansmen at the forefront, with ferocious smiles, responded to the desperate roars of the Cloud Village ninjas with their bone blades, charging forward to engage the panicked Cloud Village ninjas in fierce combat.

"Press it down!"

"All troops, advance!"

"Throw dozens of explosive tags at us the moment we meet!"

While leading the charge and casually killing a low-ranking ninja, Uchiha Makoto instructed the Akatsuki ninjas to use explosive tags to kill them instead of ninjutsu or taijutsu, since they had a sufficient stockpile of explosive tags and the most important thing was to minimize ninja casualties.

The first line of defense of the Hidden Cloud Village has been breached!

The Cloud Village ninja, caught off guard by the surprise attack, suffered a devastating defeat. Only a few managed to escape, abandoning the first line of defense of the Cloud Village. They fought and retreated with the pursuing Akatsuki ninja, trying to return to the second line of defense of the Cloud Village, but the outcome was obvious.

Xiaoren Village achieved a victory in its first battle.

The Akatsuki ninjas all wore expressions of joy; this battle was a resounding victory.

"Makoto, we won big tonight, can we rest for a bit now?"

Shinji Uzumaki was extremely excited, but his face still showed signs of fatigue, though the joy of his great victory temporarily masked his exhaustion.

The main force crossed the border.

Running 400 li overnight for a surprise attack is very exhausting.

Afterwards, there would be fierce battles, and even Shinji Uzumaki of the Uzumaki clan, who was known for his strong stamina and vitality, felt that he had been overwhelmed by the exertion.

Not to mention that the team consists of over 90% Chunin and Genin. Most of them can use a few C-rank ninjutsu and their chakra will be exhausted, so they can start using taijutsu for hand-to-hand combat.

However, Makoto Uchiha had no intention of giving the Akatsuki ninja a chance to rest.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

Once a person's mind relaxes, the fatigue from running all night will follow.

The night is still long.

According to intelligence.

The second line of defense is different from the third line of defense. It is not far from the first line of defense, less than 800 li away. Therefore, the second line of defense must be taken down before the defeated ninjas of the first line of defense can report the situation.

"Relay my orders!"

"Keep marching! If you get sleepy, slap yourself twice, then think about our Will of Light! If you're hungry or tired, eat some soldier rations!"

Uchiha Makoto also understood that tonight's surprise attack mission was very difficult and challenging. The only way to keep them running at full speed without falling behind was to rely on their unwavering will of light!

Then, Makoto Uchiha made a decisive decision and issued the battle order.

"I pledge my loyalty to the Lord of Light and Shadow!!"

Fueled by their resounding victory, the Akatsuki ninja were filled with fighting spirit and roared together. Without hesitation, they continued to carry out their orders and began a nighttime raid on the second line of defense of Kumogakure.

At dawn.

Foggy

The Cloud Village ninjas at the second line of defense looked at the thick fog that had suddenly risen around their base and exchanged puzzled glances: "Why is there such a thick fog today?"

After a few seconds.

Hundreds of pairs of eyes, gleaming with ferocious bloodshot veins, emerged from the thick fog.

These were the fighters carefully selected by Uchiha Makoto after a night-long raid.

Along the way, there were indeed too many Akatsuki ninja who couldn't keep up with the group, and some even fainted from running.

Their will of light has truly burned out!

"Fire Release: Great Fire Extinction Technique"

Uchiha Seiichi unleashed a B-rank Fire Release ninjutsu, unleashing a torrent of scorching flames that seemed poised to engulf the area in front of him into a sea of ​​fire.

"What a powerful fire jutsu!"

"I once heard that the Uchiha clan's Fire Release technique, when mastered to a high level, could suppress an entire ninja army by one person. Today, it seems that this is true. Lord Kage's Fire Release technique can be called a masterpiece. Whether it is the speed of hand seals, chakra manipulation, or chakra, it is impeccable."

A voice praising Uchiha Makoto came from behind.

Uchiha Makoto simply nodded slightly.

Looking at the fire-style technique before him, he understood that his fire-style technique was inferior to that of Madara Uchiha, the pinnacle of the ninja world, in terms of both area and power.

However, Uchiha Makoto did not underestimate himself. This move could still be described as incredibly powerful. He felt that his efforts had not been in vain. He had been practicing this fire release technique for quite some time.

Before Makoto Uchiha met Shizuku Uzumaki, even if he worked all day, he would still take time every night to practice his hand speed. However, he became somewhat lax after getting married.

"Click, click."

A sound like shards of glass appeared.

The barrier responsible for defending the outer perimeter of the base was broken by this fire escape move, and the Akatsuki ninjas who followed could not wait to rush in and start killing people.

"A defensive barrier has already appeared at the second line of defense? No wonder the Hidden Cloud Village fought Konoha to the death in the original story and even gradually gained the upper hand in the later stages. Their strength and accumulation are even stronger than I imagined."

Uchiha Makoto frowned, but his face showed no joy at having shattered the Cloud Village's encampment barrier with a single blow. After a slight sigh, he immediately rushed back inside.

"asshole!"

"How did these Akatsuki ninjas suddenly appear here?!"

"Was the village's carefully constructed first line of defense breached in just one night?"

"Captain, they have too many explosive tags! I can't get close to them at all! They're charging in!!!"

"Damn it, that's a shadow clone!!"

Anger and fear rang out.

The Uzumaki clan member, disguised as the sixth member, with numerous shadow clones, covered his clones with explosive tags and charged towards the Cloud Village ninja in front of him.

The Cloud Village ninjas on the second line of defense were clearly caught off guard. They found it unbelievable that the Akatsuki ninjas had not only destroyed the Cloud Village's first line of defense in one night, but also continued their attack on their second line of defense, covering nearly a thousand miles.

"You pathetic Cloud Villagers!"

"This is the Will of Light!"

"Long live the Lord of Light and Shadow! Long live the Will of Light! Victory is certain!"

Several cheers erupted in quick succession.

Victory is the best cohesive force. Xiao Ren won the first battle under the leadership of Lord Guangying.

We've already breached the second line of defense; victory is within reach!

The Akatsuki ninja, who were already feeling extremely exhausted and their chakra was critically low, heard the cheers and seemed to be instantly infused with the will of Uchiha Seikō. They were able to extract even more chakra from their bodies and joined in the shouts, "Long live Akatsuki! Victory!"

The powerful Akatsuki ninjas launched a series of ninjutsu against the defeated Kumogakure ninjas.

He waved the explosive tags in his hand forward as if they were free.

"Boom, boom!"

Explosions continued one after another.

Chaos was accompanied by bloodshed.

The second line of defense in Hidden Cloud Village has been breached!

In the end, only a few small groups of Cloud Village ninjas scattered and fled. They gave up their plan to continue holding the second line of defense. The situation was too sudden, and there was no way they would get reinforcements if they continued to fight.

The defensive line belongs to Kumogakure.

Your life belongs to you.

They can still distinguish between what is important and what is not.

"Long live the Lord of Light and Shadow!"

"Onboard!!"

"loyalty!!"

The victorious Akatsuki ninja cheered. Some of them raised their hands high to grab the prisoners, while those who couldn't free their hands immediately pressed the prisoners to the ground, kneed them in the neck, and then quickly stretched out their hands to cheer along.

The prisoners complained bitterly.

"I can't breathe!"

Uchiha Makoto also had a look of joy on his face.

He stood tall in the building that had become half ruins, accepting the cheers of the crowd with peace of mind.
