As a member of the Hokage, one dares not be a loyal subject of Konoha

Chapter 64 Before the Battle.

As the meeting concluded.

The aging machine of Konoha had to speed things up once again.

If this machine still had some oil to run when the Hidden Cloud Village attacked before, now it's just boiling water.

The consequences of forcibly using this machine afterward are predictable.

On the road in the Hui area.

Fugaku seemed a little excited.

He took the initiative to find Hinata Himeko, and patted his chest with a show of loyalty, saying...

"Brother Richeng, no need to thank me. It's all my duty. I've had my eye on those two old bastards for a long time!"

The meaning between the lines is also very clear.

Those two slaps from the Hokage were his responsibility; the Nichijou brothers don't need to worry.

Hinata Himeko also highly praised Fugaku for this.

"Brother, you're awesome! Today, you showed me the invincible glory of the Uchiha clan during the Warring States period!"

But in reality, Fugaku didn't know that.

His actions completely saved those two consultants.

After all, if even Fugaku could understand it, Hyuga Hiroko could definitely understand it too.

Despite the fact that the two old advisors seem to be highly respected and indispensable in the village, their actual role during the war was negligible.

Even their usual "highly respected" status only had a negative impact on Konoha.

It's not that there's a problem with the position of Hokage advisor, but rather that there's a problem with the person in that position.

Looking at the lives of Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, it's hard to see any significant contributions they made to Konoha.

So at this critical moment, even if Hyuga Hisei kills the two advisors on the spot, Sarutobi has to grit his teeth and bear it!

The Third Hokage couldn't hold back and slapped one of them, which was actually a way of getting them out of trouble. If it had been Hyuga Hijin who made the move, it wouldn't have been as simple as just two slaps.

To put it bluntly, he just had a cheat code on the moon, do you think he can stand being wronged like this?

The two men who tried to kill him were captured instead; they would become the spoils of war for Chief Cheng in the future.

If he doesn't give it to you, no one can take it from you. If you dare to touch it, he'll dare to hit you!

After the fight was over, the old village chief still had to say that it was a good fight.

However, since Fugaku wanted to be the first to show off, Hyuga Hisei readily agreed and didn't compete with him for the opportunity. After all, there would be plenty of opportunities to show off, and it wouldn't hurt to do Fugaku a favor.

However, it's becoming increasingly obvious that Fugaku's IQ is fluctuating.

For example, just now when he was arguing with the old village chief, what surprised Hyuga Hisei was that he actually proposed to include the fact that the Uchiha clan was the founder of Konoha in the textbooks of the Ninja Academy.

This move was undeniably brilliant; even Chief Richeng was extremely impressed, and the old village chief's expression changed instantly before he finally reluctantly agreed.

After all, this was originally the old village chief's own trick, which he called "brainwashing should start from childhood."

If this plan is implemented, the higher-ups will have to think twice before taking any action against the Uchiha clan.

However, Chief Hijiri is more inclined to believe that Fugaku made this request simply to show off. The so-called Uchiha clan, even if a very few members are mentally unstable, have never deviated from their true nature.

No matter which path they take, they will ultimately stick to their original choices and adopt a strategy of showing off when conditions permit.

They remain the same, unchanged for thousands of years, and they still love to show off.

This is extremely admirable, and it has even seeped into my bones and become a part of my soul.

"I won't say much more. If we meet on the battlefield, I hope Brother Richeng will offer you more assistance."

Fugaku, who had witnessed Hinata's attack, still vividly remembered the scene, but he reciprocated in kind.

"I can't speak for other things, but the Uchiha clan will never abandon their Hyuga clan comrades. That's the only guarantee I can make."

Look at Fugaku's sincere expression.

Chief Nichisei readily agreed to Fugaku's request.

As the Uchiha clan's only ally, he clearly believed Fugaku's words, but how long that belief would last, and how long the alliance would last, depended entirely on Fugaku himself.

Fork in the road.

Because they ultimately did not become neighbors with the Uchiha clan, their paths diverged.

After a brief farewell, the two hurried towards their family's estate.

End of the meeting.

The strategy to support the front lines has been determined.

However, given that the situation was already extremely urgent, it was impossible for them to come up with any groundbreaking tactics.

Moreover, these are the only people in the village who can provide support. Time is tight, so there's not much room for innovation, and the third generation doesn't offer many options.

Fugaku chose to lead his clansmen, along with ninjas who had been reassembled by the Hokage, to provide support from the main battlefield.

The Hyuga clan, due to the strategic importance of the Byakugan, needs to deploy additional personnel on various battlefields to serve as liaison points and scouts for relaying messages.

After scattering the clansmen to other teams, Chief Richeng will lead the rest of the clansmen to attack from the flanks, turning them into a sharp blade.

However, that's the order, and we still don't know what's going on on the front lines.

Plans can never keep up with changes. According to Hinata Hiroshi's calculations, so-called tactics are useless. After all, this battlefield is within the Land of Fire, which is relatively flat. It's all about raw strength.

Furthermore, thanks to Lord Danzo's brilliant strategy, Kumogakure and Iwagakure could simply rob whatever they needed within the Land of Fire, ensuring they wouldn't lack supplies in the short term, making flanking attacks ineffective.

The Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village probably plan to wipe them out in one fell swoop, and only consider other options if they fail.

At this stage, ninjas are being used as warriors, and in the future, it is more likely that countless people will be fighting each other, turning into a fierce melee.

Leaf.

The new clan settlement of the Hyuga clan.

The news has already been sent back.

Because the front line could fall at any moment, and time was limited, the tribesmen had already assembled.

"Clan chief, Lord Hizashi has sent me a message."

Hyuga Ushima approached respectfully and reported the situation.

"The route for relocating our people is not safe, and the relocation plan has been forced to stop. What do you think?"

The Land of Fire is not peaceful, with most of the area under enemy control. Under these circumstances, a safe transfer would require at least a large number of additional personnel.

Hinata Himo doesn't lack people, but he feels that if he makes too much noise, it will be troublesome if people discover the Hyuga clan's actions.

Moreover, wasn't his willingness to take on the relatively free task of the elite unit precisely to pave a safe route first?

"Have Nishizaki and Nishizaki wait for now; we'll let them know once the route is arranged."

I gave a brief explanation.

Chief Richeng looked at the assembled clansmen.

As a powerful clan in Konoha, the Hyuga clan has always had a large number of members.

Even if some of them are on the moon making contact with the Otsutsuki clan, their large numbers gathered in the suburbs still create quite an imposing sight.

Although the war in the ninja world seemed to consist of only a few villages fighting each other, with a total death toll of only tens of thousands, it was like children playing house compared to the real world war in my previous life.

But these are not the same world after all, and besides, the brutality and bloodshed of war are basically the same.

Taking a step forward means bleeding and sacrifice.

And these are all living, breathing people.

Since his rebirth and the merging of his past life's memories, Hinata Himaru has long regarded the Hyuga clan as his own home, and these clan members are all his family members, so he has become an integral part of them.

The heavy weight on our shoulders is called responsibility!

But Hyuga Hijiri knew in his heart that the reason why the Hyuga clan was charging into battle was not only for Konoha, but also for the clan itself.

Killing one more enemy means that if we choose independence in the future, we will face one less enemy.

Therefore, in this battle, we must not only kill, but kill as many as possible!

Thinking of this, Chief Richeng stepped forward with a murderous look on his face. Even without using the Byakugan's pressure, the clansmen in front of him felt an unprecedented sense of oppression from him!

The clan chief led the charge.

The tribesmen were in high spirits!

The atmosphere had already been built up to this point, and talking about anything else would be pointless. The sounds that naturally came out of my mouth turned into roars that shook the heavens.

"war!"
