Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 47 Reached an Agreement

The four of them were all startled upon hearing this.

Minato Namikaze instinctively objected, "No way!"

"Why not?"

"Is it simply because she's your wife?"

"Deploying the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki can not only avenge your disciple and take revenge on Kirigakure, but also reduce casualties among Konoha ninja."

"Especially the last point, everyone knows how serious the losses of Konoha ninja were, even some children went to the battlefield."

"If we have the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the four of us, we can easily sweep through Kirigakure and end the battlefield as quickly as possible."

"Wouldn't this save countless lives? Wouldn't that be better?"

"Furthermore, Kushina has made great contributions, so as her husband, Minato, you should also receive a share."

"Of course, as the one who devised the plan, I can also get some credit, but the main consideration is for Konoha."

Orochimaru smiled faintly and said slowly.

Minato Namikaze was speechless upon hearing this, his heart filled with hesitation.

This is indeed the fastest way to end the war, and it would also have some benefits for him, but it puts Kushina at risk...

Seeing his disciple's expression, Jiraiya quickly said, "Your method is indeed good, but what if Kushina loses control?"

"What if other ninja villages find out Kushina left? Will they come up with some wicked ideas...?"

"Heh heh..." Orochimaru chuckled, "What's there to be afraid of?"

"Just send more people to escort them. Kushina isn't someone to be trifled with; if they dare to have any wicked thoughts, we'll break their claws!"

"Besides, they might not even find out. Jiraiya, do you have so little confidence in Konoha's ability to keep secrets?"

"As for the issue of losing control, you're overthinking it. It's not like we're letting Kushina unleash her full power without restraint, is it?"

"All we need to do is let Kushina unleash the power she can control."

"Even if something unexpected happens, Kushina is proficient in sealing techniques, and we have also studied sealing techniques. With our combined efforts, surely we can suppress a Nine-Tails that is heavily restricted?"

"With Tsunade here, Kushina will be healed quickly after unleashing the power of the Nine-Tails."

"Kushina was the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki and a Konoha ninja. Shouldn't she have done her part for Konoha?"

"Besides, Kushina has been involved before, Minato, you know that all too well."

Why have so many concerns?

"Hesitation and indecisiveness will hinder your success!"

After calming down and thinking it over, Minato realized that he had indeed been too concerned and made a mistake. There was a risk, but it wasn't significant.

"Orochimaru-senpai is right; I was just too worried to think straight."

"In order to end the war as soon as possible, I agree to let Kushina participate in the war."

Since Minato, as her husband, agreed, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Nara Shikaku naturally wouldn't object.

"Minato, how much of the Nine-Tails' power can Kushina control?"

"Tsunade-senpai, Kushina can control the power of six tails, and seven in her ultimate state, but the risk of losing control is very high."

Tsunade nodded slightly and said, "To be on the safe side, let's unleash the power of up to five tails at most."

"Thank you for your consideration, Tsunade-senpai."

When Naruto fought Pain, eight tails exploded, but that was only half the power of the Nine-Tails. Kushina's body contained the complete Nine-Tails.

The power of five tails is estimated to be equivalent to Naruto unleashing the power of seven tails, enough to wreak havoc on the battlefield.

"Okay, it's decided then. We'll jointly apply to the village."

The other four agreed, and soon a scroll with the highest level of secrecy was sent to Konoha via a special ninja hawk.

None of the five mentioned the current situation of the Hidden Mist Ninja being dispersed.

The five people present were not fools; they had already anticipated that the Hidden Mist Village would withdraw its forces after the plan failed, and there was no point in continuing the stalemate.

It doesn't matter whether the withdrawn troops are assembled at the current Mist Hidden Front Camp or elsewhere.

Once Kushina arrives, everyone can work together to push her away and drive Kirigakure into the sea.

After the meeting, everyone went their separate ways to attend to their own business.

Orochimaru is also very busy, handling his military duties, carrying out missions, and secretly working hard to capture Hidden Mist ninjas for research.

At this point, Orochimaru had not yet reached the point of using villagers for experiments; he used either enemy ninjas or people he bought from the black market.

Because he has not completely fallen into darkness and still has a certain obsession with the position of Hokage, he still stands on the side of Konoha and will devise strategies for the benefit of Konoha.

The idea of ​​deploying the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was entirely Orochimaru's own; Gen Uchiha did not influence it.

……

"Kakashi, I've come to see you."

At the Konoha front-line field hospital, Uchiha Gen lifted the curtain and entered the tent.

Kakashi lay on the makeshift cot as if he hadn't heard anything, staring blankly at the pine-green tent roof, completely absorbed in his own world.

"Kakashi, Gen has come to see you."

Uchiha Shisui sat on the wooden post beside the bed, reached out and gently nudged Kakashi, his tone tender.

Kakashi finally reacted, his eyes darting around. He saw Gen nod slightly by the bedside, then returned to normal.

Sigh, it was a huge blow. Even with Shisui around, he still couldn't escape Madara Uchiha's schemes...

Uchiha Gen gave Shisui a wink, and Shisui immediately understood and left the tent.

"Has it always been like this?"

"Yes, it's been like this since I woke up, for two days now."

"I'm so useless. I let such a good girl like Rin... If Rin had been alright, Kakashi wouldn't be like this."

Shisui said with a face full of guilt.

"What exactly happened? Class 7 shouldn't be like this."

Zhi Shui smiled wryly, "Perhaps we were just unlucky to run into them."

"Not only did Kirigakure send out two ANBU squads, but they also had a large number of Kirigakure ninja who had infiltrated the Land of Fire to help."

"Kakashi and I ran around like mad, doing everything we could, but in the end we couldn't stop Rin from being kidnapped..."

Uchiha Gen: "..."

If he were in that lineup, the result probably wouldn't be much better...

Two squads of elite Anbu ninja, plus a large number of Kirigakure ninja, and of course, the Black and White Zetsu hiding in the shadows, providing intelligence and fueling the conflict—it's really hard to handle...

Unless one possesses absolute strength, enough to unite all the Hidden Mist ninjas, even a desperate Black and White Zetsu would be helpless.

Otherwise, they would have no choice but to flee with Rin. However, White Zetsu's stealth abilities are extremely strong, making them difficult to detect by ordinary means. Once their whereabouts are exposed, no place is safe, and their constant running around will inevitably lead to a breach sooner or later.

Kakashi and Shisui are already quite remarkable for being able to protect themselves.

He figured that if he played without holding back, he should be able to hold his own against the two Kirigakure ANBU squads and the Kirigakure ninja, and his chances of winning would be quite good. But if the Kirigakure ninjas played dirty tricks, it was uncertain.

Ultimately, he is still a mortal, and if his vital organs are attacked, he will still die.

Unfortunately, they lack sufficient survival skills and rely on relatively conventional ninja methods.

Even if they survive the Mist Ninja, there are still the desperate Black and White Zetsu. Madara Uchiha and Black Zetsu will never allow anyone to ruin their plans.

Black Zetsu is truly bizarre. If he were ambushed, it's hard to say whether he could withstand the Soul-Soul Fruit's power...

There are still over 100,000 inferior White Zetsu under White Zetsu's command. They may not all be nearby, but there are definitely many in and around Madara Uchiha's lair.

After all the calculations, the result would most likely be the same even if it were him.

"Alas, with such a large-scale operation, unless there are four commanders, no one can escape unscathed."

"Don't blame yourself too much, carry on with the spirit of your companions."

Uchiha Gen sighed and patted Shisui on the shoulder.

In reality, even with Minato Namikaze present, the three legendary Sannin couldn't have changed the outcome. The Flying Thunder God Technique carried them away too quickly, leaving no trace.

"you're right."

"I'm gradually accepting reality, but Kakashi..."

Although Shisui felt a sense of camaraderie with Nohara Rin, it was a relatively short time, and his feelings were far less profound than Kakashi's.

"You and Minato-senpai can only try to comfort him. Kakashi is no ordinary person. He is an excellent ninja and he will get through this sooner or later."

"This is the only way."

"Alright, I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."

"it is good."
