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

Chapter 182 Golden Light

"The Hyuga clan leader is being a bit too radical."

[Royal Court Ninja Army] Central Camp: Uchiha Wu'an is still absorbing knowledge in the Sea of ​​Magic.

Minako Uzumaki, Hikaru Uchiha, and several advisors observed Ashizaru Hyuga's arrangements through crystal balls carried by the Uzumaki ninja in the reconnaissance team.

Minako Uzumaki frowned slightly. "The strength of the Great Tomb of Nazarick is well known. The Hyuga clan leader wanted to gain merit by trying to alert the enemy, test the limits of their barrier's endurance, and lure out their strong members. This tactic is not inherently wrong; the mistake was overestimating his own strength."

From the "Destruction Dragon King" to the three demon generals captured and taken to Konoha, and finally the near annihilation of the Platinum Armored Army led by Yagura Karatachi, the waters of the Magic Continent have always been deep.

Hyuga Ashizaburo couldn't possibly be unaware of this.

"I even specifically reminded you beforehand."

Minako Uzumaki sighed softly, feeling a bit of a headache from Hyuga Asashizashi's eagerness to attack.

"Don't worry, Minako-neechan. The Hyuga clan leader isn't stupid; he must have his reasons for doing this."

Uchiha Hikaru rested his elbow on the table, his chin on the back of his hand, mimicking Uchiha Takeyasu's serious expression. "Recently, the Hyuga clan in the ninja world and the Hyuga clan on the moon have been increasing their exchanges."

"Perhaps Hyuga Ashizaru obtained something good from the Hyuga clan on the moon."

As Uchiha Hikaru spoke, a look of eager anticipation appeared on his face.

"Furthermore, he carries the Flying Thunder God Technique, so we can teleport there at any time using the array in the room. Even if a situation arises that the Hyuga clan leader can't handle, I'll be there to clean up the mess!"

"After all, among Brother An's women, I'm the only one who can move around freely."

Hearing Uchiha Hikaru emphasize certain words, Uzumaki Minako smiled gently, "Yes, we'll have to rely on Commander Hikaru from now on."

(That darn philandering cat! I want to strip her naked!)

Hikaru Uchiha vowed in his heart to repeat the same "punishment" he had given to Momiji Uchiha on Minako Uzumaki.

However, thinking of the shrine maiden Momiji, Uchiha Hikaru couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't Momiji come? With her prophetic abilities, wouldn't she be perfect for this place?"

"If we could foresee the date of the Hyuga clan leader's death, we would have a better plan."

"His Majesty is willing, but Kaori and Governance are not."

As soon as Minako Uzumaki replied, Hikaru Uchiha immediately understood: this was to guard against Takeshi Uchiha's true form causing trouble.

Having figured this out, Uchiha Hikaru stopped worrying about the shrine maiden Momiji and watched with a hint of boredom as the well-organized reconnaissance team continued to attack the Great Tomb of Nazarick's tortoise shell.

Suddenly, the girl's dark eyes transformed into an eternal kaleidoscope!

………………

Five dark figures flew out of the barrier in a flash. Even with Hyuga Ashizaburo's eyesight, he could only see five powerful figures dressed in black ninja clothing and wearing headscarves with the character "ninja" on their faces.

They drew their samurai swords in mid-air and instantly killed their opponents, even splitting the eagles beneath them in two, which then vanished as ink.

"Lift up!"

As soon as Hyuga Ashizaburo uttered a shout, five non-human ninjas with fluttering headscarves revealing demonic faces waved their arms, sending countless shuriken flying like meteors.

Just as the surrounding ninjas were caught off guard, the Hyuga ninja stepped forward.

In order to strengthen the clan, the Hyuga main family reluctantly brought out the Rotation Technique, a secret technique known for its absolute defense, which came in handy at this moment.

Seven or eight blue circular chakra light screens emitted a clanging sound like metal clashing, followed by the splattering sounds of flesh being pierced.

The renowned Heaven-Reversing Secret Technique crumbled instantly under the overwhelming power of the demon ninja!

The ninjas nearby fared no better, collapsing one after another from the ink-wash-like eagle. This scene, witnessed by Hyuga Ashizaburo, filled him with anxiety.

Those who can join the reconnaissance unit are all Jonin, which, in the context of the Magic Continent's ranking system, would make them outstanding figures in the hero realm and pillars of the ninja village.

If a large number of people were to die in battle without any corresponding results, Hyuga Ashizaburo felt that his ninja career was coming to an end—even though resurrection magic existed in this world and it was proven that ninjas could also be resurrected, the cost of resurrection was almost twice that of the residents of the Magic Continent.

Even if a Jonin is resurrected, they will almost certainly be relegated to Chunin level, and the process of recovering their strength will be extremely slow.

"These demon ninjas are not to be underestimated!"

Minako Uzumaki's gaze narrowed slightly, not paying too much attention to the deaths and injuries of the combat ninjas.

As a member of the main clan's Uzumaki ninja, she could offer the large white rabbit on her chest as a sacrifice to Uchiha Takeoshi, allowing him to cast a high-level resurrection spell with minimal side effects.

The other ninjas are unlikely to be taken as seriously by Uchiha Muan, and the worst fifth-tier resurrection magic is unlikely to be used; it will probably be a seventh-tier resurrection magic.

Currently, only Uchiha Takeo knows this level of magic.

With the help of Uchiha Takeo, Priestess Lilynet entered the realm of heroes and became one of only two magic casters in the faction capable of using resurrection magic.

"Let me play!"

Uchiha Hikaru jumped to his feet, his crimson Sharingan eyes gleaming with excitement.

As time went by, her strength grew stronger and stronger. Until now, Uchiha Hikari had not fought a real battle for a long time, and the girl's delicate body was almost rusty.

"The Hyuga clan leader hasn't requested reinforcements yet. Let's wait and see."

Minako Uzumaki remained calm and did not immediately agree to Hikaru Uchiha's request.

Besides the reasons that were spoken, there were deeper factors—that was the enemy's stronghold. If Uchiha Hikaru were to meet with misfortune, how could Uchiha Takeoshi possibly stand idly by!

If the battle descends into chaos, the tragedy prophesied by the shrine maiden Momiji could easily occur.

Minako Uzumaki didn't dare to think about what would happen if Uchiha Takeoshi fell—after all, Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura weren't completely dead yet!

Without Uchiha Wu'an as a check and balance, let alone conquering the Magic Continent, the entire ninja world would fall apart.

Uchiha Hikaru did not refute. When it comes to serious matters, the girl would not act recklessly according to her own whims. It would always be better to listen to Uzumaki Minako's opinions.

After all, they were a family she didn't want to acknowledge.

Suddenly, a golden light shone on the screen.

The two women narrowed their eyes, while a bad feeling welled up in Fei Su's mind.

Each ninja monster of level 80 or above, [Hanzo], doesn't have this kind of method!

"I was hoping to make an even greater contribution at a crucial moment, what a pity."

A faint word of regret drifted through the air, and suddenly a golden radiance that stretched from heaven to earth shone forth!
