The Uchiha's Path to the Top, Starting from Konoha

Chapter 179 Growth

"Should we change our strategy towards the ninjas?"

"No, the seeds of hatred have already been sown between the two sides. The only options left are fighting or submission."

Ainz, who considers the guild his life's purpose, would never want the guild's honor to be trampled underfoot.

That would undoubtedly be a desecration and abandonment of the efforts you and your partners have made in the past!

"Glory to Ainz Ooal Gown!"

The flying squirrel raised its head, and two points of scarlet light shot out from the skull's head.

Even though his former companions are gone, with the Ainz Ooal Gown guild possessing numerous world-class items, countless mercenary monsters in the library, and the NPCs left behind by his companions, Momonga has no reason to lose!

"Come on, ninjas!"

The flying squirrel in the bedroom is full of ambition.

………………

The village of Karn, located about ten kilometers from the Great Tomb of Nazarick, has been requisitioned by the combat ninjas of the ninja world.

After most villagers were given a large compensation that would allow them to buy a house and live in the fortress city of [Ye Lantier] for several years, they quickly packed their belongings and left the land.

Many houses were demolished and rebuilt. Standing inside the spacious and sturdy hall constructed using earth and wood ninjutsu, Minako Uzumaki noticed Uchiha Takeoshi's unusual behavior. "Your Majesty?"

"It's nothing."

Uchiha Muan withdrew his gaze and said with a smile, "I just greeted the neighbor who came over secretly, hoping he wouldn't be too worried."

As his body gradually became inhuman, Uchiha Muan could feel that his spirit was also undergoing extremely subtle changes.

As long as someone exudes strong emotions towards you or directly spyes on you, you can "see" where that person is, guided by some unseen force.

Just like the legendary gods, reciting their names will surely bring some response.

The flying squirrel was so frightened by itself that it will probably be living in fear for a while.

"Neighbor?"

Minako Uzumaki muttered something and then understood what Takeo Uchiha meant. This small village on the plains, far from any other village or shop, could only be considered a neighbor to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

"The spatial isolation barrier around the military camp will be set up soon, and then the enemy's magic will be unable to spy on the situation in the military camp."

Minako Uzumaki's eyes flickered, and she became curious about the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

"This place is quite far from the Great Tomb of Nazarick. In the ninja world, apart from ninjas with naturally strong sensory abilities or those who have mastered ninjutsu such as Kagura's Mind's Eye, it is almost impossible for anyone to spy on this place."

"If we can grasp the underlying principles, it will greatly facilitate the ninja army's operations or the capture of criminals who have committed heinous crimes and fled."

"We'll know once we break down the great tomb."

Uchiha Muan said calmly, "Has Hyuga Ashizaki arrived? His Byakugan should be able to see things more than ten kilometers away. He will be in charge of the Royal Court Ninja Army's reconnaissance."

"The energy of the Sky Eye system is currently accumulating, so we should use as little as possible."

Minako Uzumaki replied, "The Hyuga clan leader has already made preparations in Konoha. Once the teleportation array here is set up, we will teleport here immediately."

As the two entered the main hall, they were immediately greeted by fifty imposing and spirited Uchiha ninjas.

They were all dressed in exquisite red samurai armor, specially made for the Ninja Cat Clan and inscribed with three auxiliary magic spells by the Konoha Academy of Sciences, with samurai swords, also infused with magic, hanging at their waists.

According to the practical tests conducted by the Academy of Sciences, the strength of Uchiha clan Jonin can be increased by 10% to 20% when wearing this equipment. Overall, the improvement in the comprehensive strength of the Uchiha clan is terrifying.

In addition, with the vigorous development in recent years, the number of Jonin has increased from nearly a hundred initially to one hundred and seventy or eighty now.

The Uchiha ninjas who are now standing in the main hall are all elite Jonin who have come from Konoha or various ninja armies on the Magic Continent.

Ordinary Uchiha Jonin are no longer qualified to step into this hall.

Moreover, if it weren't for Uchiha Yomo's timely intervention, all the Uchiha Chunin and Jonin would probably have rushed into the Royal Court Ninja Army.

Being able to get up close to the clan leader who led the Uchiha clan to the highest position in the ninja world filled all the Uchiha with a surge of excitement.

"Lord Wu'an!"

Inside the main hall, the Uchiha ninjas all knelt on one knee, their clear, deep shouts carrying outside, arousing envy among many other ninjas.

"We are all of the same blood and flesh, everyone stand up and relax a little."

As Uchiha Takeo looked at the ever-growing Uchiha clan, his voice softened, which made the Uchiha ninjas relax a little.

But their bodies remained tense, and they dared not make the slightest unnecessary movement.

"In a world where extraordinary beings exist, military strength is always about quality, not quantity. The Royal Court Ninja Army currently has only five hundred members."

Uchiha Takeo sat in the armchair, while Uzumaki Minako stood behind him with her head bowed.

"The personnel will be composed entirely of Jonin, with five people forming a squad leader, ten forming a platoon leader. Those with the strength of an elite Jonin can compete for the positions of squad leader and platoon leader. One hundred people will be centurions, and centurions will be Kage-level in strength. Everyone can compete for positions based on their own qualifications."

The Uchiha ninjas present did some calculations and were overjoyed; they were certain that all fifty squad leader positions would be theirs.

By pooling their merits, the centurion position could be exchanged for several Blood Seeds, allowing the most prestigious and powerful Uchiha ninja to be the first to reach the Kage level.

In any case, the Royal Court Ninja Army, which is directly under the command of Uchiha Muan, will definitely be completely taken over by the Uchiha at all levels and at the core of power!

"I will concurrently serve as the commander-in-chief, while the position of deputy commander-in-chief will be held by Uchiha Hikaru."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark light screen appeared inside the hall.

Uchiha Hikaru, dressed in samurai uniform and sporting the same high ponytail as Uchiha Takeoshi, appeared before everyone with one hand on his sword, looking dashing and heroic.

"Greetings, Master Guangda!"

The quick-witted Uchiha ninja shouted, and the others joined in the shouting.

(That guy is not bad.)

Glancing at the quick-witted individual among the Uchiha who had spoken first, Uchiha Hikaru's cool and aloof face remained expressionless. He nodded slightly and walked to Uchiha Muan's side.

(This girl, just like before, isn't used to being in crowded places.)

Uchiha Takeo looked at Uchiha Hikaru's deliberately serious face with a touch of nostalgia and said softly.

"The spatial teleportation array will be completed soon, and the official establishment of the Royal Court Ninja Army will be just around the corner. I hope everyone can demonstrate to others the strength befitting the number one clan in the ninja world!"

"I humbly obey Lord Wu'an's command!"

The crowd shouted in unison.
