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

Chapter 181 Hinata

The space teleportation array at the Royal Court Ninja Army's camp had just been completed when it lit up with light.

"Clan Head Hyuga, His Majesty has assigned you to the role of reconnaissance officer. After a short rest and to gather information, you will be setting off to monitor the Great Tomb of Nazarick's movements."

Minako Uzumaki stood to one side, watching Hyuga Ashizashi and more than twenty Jonin core members of the Hyuga clan walk towards them with great vigor, and said softly.

"Hyuga clan leader, you bear a heavy responsibility. The enemy's combat system is not based on the chakra we are familiar with. Do not be bound by past experience."

"Of course, I haven't forgotten that I am still a ninja."

This time, Hyuga Ashizaburo did not wear a kimono, but instead donned the uniform of a combat ninja, and wore the crest of the Radiant Moon on his shoulder to signify his Kage-level strength.

Ordinary Kage level is like a star, Strong Kage is like a radiant moon, and Super Kage is like a blazing sun.

The three classes—Sun, Moon, and Star—formed a pyramid of ruling class in the ninja world.

Even those at the Six Paths level have a formal and magnificent set of clothes, but Uchiha Muan rarely wears them because they are quite troublesome to take off.

"Then I wish the Hyuga clan leader a resounding victory and that he may first secure the greatest merit for His Majesty."

After Minako Uzumaki finished speaking, she walked away. One of the Uzumaki ninjas immediately followed Hyuga Ashizawa and began to explain the current situation to him.

"I understand."

Soon, Hyuga Ashizaburo understood the current situation. Without any hesitation, he took the Hyuga ninjas, the Uzumaki ninja who specialized in sensory abilities, and the combat ninja who had mastered the [Super Beast Imitation Painting] technique, and rode the Water Ink Eagle, flying towards the sky above the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

"The main body of the protective barrier is elliptical, with the longest diameter being 3,500 meters and the shortest diameter being 2,000 meters. Its volume is buried deep underground and is extremely spacious."

Riding on a soaring eagle, Hyuga Ashizaburo surveyed the area with his Byakugan eyes wide open, then recounted the basic situation of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. The Uzumaki ninja beside him took notes and relayed the information back to the ninja army.

There are dedicated ninja advisors over there, calculating the potential military strength and other resources that the Great Tomb of Nazarick might store.

"Even the Byakugan can't penetrate the Great Tomb's barrier. Deploy reconnaissance teams to surround the Great Tomb from all directions, whether in the sky or underground. Even if an earthworm crawls out, it'll be cleaved in two!"

Having exhausted all other options, Hyuga Ashizaburo began arranging for people to monitor the Great Tomb of Nazarick, while also using various means to test the Great Tomb's barrier.

Even the ninjutsu and taijutsu attacks of elite Jonin couldn't make a splash.

Even though it was ineffective, Hyuga Ashizawa did not arrange for anyone to stop. His gaze shifted from the barrier to the numerous human stakes not far away, his face showing neither joy nor sorrow.

(This inhuman, monstrous force must be eliminated!)

Between clans, villages, and nations, there was constant fighting. Now that the ninja world has been unified and a new continent has been opened up, the Hyuga clan is filled with excitement.

Everyone wants to make lasting contributions to their clan and be remembered by future generations.

Hyuga Ashizashi, who aspires to have his children Hiashi and Hizashi become the heads of the main clans of the Ninja World Continent and the Magic Continent respectively, wants the world to hear the voice of the Hyuga clan this time!

Otherwise, the White Eye, once a strategic bloodline, is gradually losing its once unbreakable strategic position in the face of the increasingly sophisticated and powerful Sky Eye system.

The Byakugan, one of the three great dojutsu, is declining in status and may even be replaced by the Blood Dragon Eye clan from Blood Prison Valley. If this happens, the powerful Hyuga clan will surely be reduced to the Ino-Shika-Cho trio.

In the ever-changing ninja world, everyone except the Uchiha clan is a pursuer.

Even the Thousand Hands of the Forest are like this.

………………

"Lord Momonga, are we just going to let those rude bastards attack the Great Tomb of Nazarick's barrier?"

The Great Tomb of Nazarick had two major military commanders: one was the demon warlord Demiurge, who was unfortunately killed, and the other was the guardian albedo.

Albedo, who regards flying squirrels as sacred and inviolable, also considers everything in the Great Tomb of Nazarick to be invaluable.

At this moment, the probing by outside ninjas is simply a defilement of the noble [Ainz Ooal Gown]!

In the Throne Hall on the tenth floor, Momonga sat on the World Item [Throne of Kings], without immediately replying.

He has never cared about saving face. If he could gain an opportunity to win, he would kneel down without hesitation, even if it meant kneeling before the enemy.

In any world, the one who can stand up and speak in the end is the victor; the loser, no matter how glorious he may be, is of no use whatsoever!

Sixteen projected images showed sixteen reconnaissance teams outside. Ainz's focused gaze swept over them, finally settling on Hyuga Ashizaki, who exuded the most authority and superior aura.

"They are testing us, and we are testing them."

Despite his incredibly rich combat experience in the game, Ainz Ooal Gown is always quite apprehensive in real life, especially in battles involving life and death.

The invading ninjas are not very strong. Sending out a few high-level mercenary monsters would be enough to drive them away or even kill them.

However, if there are transmigrators in the opposing camp who know their own names, then it's impossible that they wouldn't understand the true power of [Ainz Ooal Gown].

Ainz pointed at the screen and looked at Albedo, whose intelligence was designed to be more than enough to manage a country, hoping to hear her insightful opinions.

"Albedo, have you discovered anything?"

In the current Throne Hall, the guardians of the other levels are on guard in their respective levels, with Sebastian temporarily taking over the seventh level after Demiurge's death.

At this moment, only Albedo was by Ainz's side. She looked at the scene on the screen, the black feathers on her back fluttering slightly. After thinking for a moment, she replied.

"A combination of two ink-wash eagles and four ninjas. The eagles are no more than level 15, the ninjas are no more than level 45 on average, and the strongest is no more than level 80."

As a level 100 Albedo, it wasn't difficult for her to discern the levels of strength from the ninjas' attacks, and she continued.

"They should be the reconnaissance corps of the ninja world. The ninjas among them with eyes different from the others are identified by the intelligence they gathered as members of the Byakugan Hyuga clan. They can use the Byakugan bloodline to see 360 ​​degrees and penetrate mountains, rocks, trees, and water to examine their surroundings."

"Judging from the opponent's current actions, the so-called 'white eye' is not even through the Great Tomb's barrier."

After saying that, Albedo added, "Of course, with Lord Ainz's supreme wisdom, it's not hard for him to see that."

After a moment of silence, the flying squirrel stroked its bald chin with one hand and slowly said, "Let's teach them a lesson!"

"Using ninja methods!"
