The Great Hero Uchiha

Moreover, despite the magnitude of the event, Uchiha Miyuki, as the commander-in-chief, failed to obtain any information from the village!

After a moment of silence, Fugaku Uchiha couldn't help but ask first.

What's your opinion on this?

Uchiha Miyuki watched the village's repeated bizarre actions, and couldn't help but laugh each time. "What are we going to do? What else can we do? The situation is already very clear. The Third Hokage will be forced to abdicate, and then I will be rejected because I am too young. Minato Namikaze will be pushed into the position of Fourth Hokage."

Fugaku Uchiha was taken aback upon hearing this.

"You mean, the Third Hokage is paving the way for Minato Namikaze?"

These words coming from Fugaku Uchiha surprised Miyuki Uchiha.

What do you think?

"I thought this was an opportunity to attack the Third Hokage..."

P.S.: I started writing earlier than yesterday, but I've only written five chapters by this time. LOL.

Good night--

fell asleep.

146. The higher you stand, the more you realize that there's an even bigger quagmire beyond the first one.

It's not that Fugaku Uchiha was too few or too narrow-minded.

The situation on the battlefield in the Land of Grass is indeed dire. Of the more than three thousand ninja from Konoha and Kusagakure combined, less than a thousand remain. Moreover, the war in the Land of Rivers is not yet over, and the same is true for Kumogakure. Kirigakure has the situation under control now, but everyone knows this is just the prelude! The Fourth Mizukage, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and various powerful members of bloodline clans have not yet joined the battle—

If the Three-Tails hadn't revived at sea and held back most of Kirigakure's high-level combat power, even if the Land of Bears hadn't been annihilated, the 4,000-strong ninja army formed by Konoha and the Bear Ninja would have suffered heavy casualties.

Adding to the casualties from the current war, Konoha has already lost more than a quarter of its ninja.

Of those ninja from small countries, apart from the Xiong ninja who are still doing well, at least a third of the rest have died.

As for the general public?

The number of people who died directly or indirectly was much higher, at least ten times, or even dozens of times, that of the ninjas.

This was after Uchiha Miyuki rose to power and quelled the rebellion of Sunagakure and Iwagakure ahead of schedule.

Therefore, it was not without reason that the Third Hokage sought to end the war in the Land of Grass.

Uchiha Miyuki lowered his head in deep thought, analyzing the current situation.

First, they analyzed the situation of the Hokage election and identified the people in the village who could compete for the position of Fourth Hokage.

There appear to be three people: Uchiha Miyuki, Namikaze Minato, and Orochimaru!

In reality, there's only Minato Namikaze. Orochimaru has too many scandals, and he could easily use the Hokage's authority to veto him in a meeting on any pretext. Miyuki Uchiha doesn't have any scandals that would incur public wrath, but he's just too young. During the Jonin trust vote, people will definitely favor Minato Namikaze. Moreover, we can use his age as a breakthrough point, arguing that he's suitable to become the Fifth Hokage, to guide the Jonin to vote for Minato Namikaze.

Unable to find a solution, he could only ponder the affairs of the Grass Country before looking up after a moment.

"The matter in the Land of Grass is not over so easily."

"??"

Fugaku Uchiha was somewhat surprised.

"If Konoha takes the initiative to seek peace and then makes some concessions during the peace talks, there's no reason for Iwagakure not to agree."

"They once held an absolute advantage under their Tsuchikage's leadership, but I forced them to surrender. Now, Iwagakure has just launched a surprise attack on Kumogakure, killing the Third Raikage and avenging the humiliation of World War II. If Konoha were more assertive and didn't give them hope, they could temporarily suppress this shame in Iwagakure's heart. The weaker Konoha appears now, the louder the voices among the people of Iwagakure will be to wash away this shame."

After a pause, Uchiha Miyuki continued his analysis.

"This is not something that can be resolved by simple concessions. Unless Konoha is willing to surrender completely, there is definitely no point in negotiating."

The root of the problem cannot be blamed on Uchiha Miyuki. In that situation, this was the only strategy that could be adopted to buy time, and it was inevitable that this problem would be left behind.

However, the problem could be solved with time, but the Konoha leadership was too hasty and directly stripped him of his authority.

He originally thought that even if the higher-ups were targeting him, they would definitely find a way to resolve the issue, since it concerned the future course of the war. However, he did not expect that the higher-ups would directly exile him to the frontier and, in order to undermine his prestige, waste a whole year of his life, letting the situation evolve freely.

In short, it boils down to one sentence.

Members of the Uchiha clan are not to be trusted; be wary of everything they do.

These are the views left behind by the Second Hokage, which have now been perfectly inherited by the Third Hokage and other high-ranking officials.

Ultimately, it comes down to the Uchiha clan letting go of the hatred they had for the Senju clan during the Warring States period. Tobirama Senju may have let go of it at one point, but because of Hashirama Senju's death, he developed a deep hatred for the Uchiha. However, he couldn't openly attack the Uchiha clan, otherwise it would definitely cause panic among other clans and lead to the disintegration of the village. So he could only resort to this subtle, gradual approach.

Even without the Nine-Tails incident—

With the village's higher-ups targeting and dividing them in this way, it's only a matter of time before the Uchiha clan rebels, giving the higher-ups a reason to take action against them.

If Uchiha Miyuki were in Tobirama Senju's position, he would adopt the same strategy.

Fugaku Uchiha nodded and then lowered his head to think of a solution.

This matter may seem to be just a private matter for Uchiha Miyuki, but in reality it concerns the survival of the entire clan.

Faced with the current situation, Fugaku Uchiha could not think of any other solutions.

What are you planning to do?

"What else can we do? Dereliction of duty is a serious crime. We can only continue fighting here."

After a pause, Uchiha Miyuki asked.

"What's the current situation with the Three-Tails in Kirigakure?"

This matter is a secret of Kirigakure, but the entire Kuma Country front is under the control of Konoha, making it extremely easy to secretly obtain this information.

"This ambush has failed again."

It's not difficult to capture the Three-Tails inland, but now that it's at sea, even just searching for it in the vast ocean is a time-consuming and laborious task, let alone capturing it.

Uchiha Miyuki stood up from his seat.

"We can't afford to delay any longer; we must act quickly."

Fugaku Uchiha shook his head.

"The more you rush, the more flaws you'll reveal. You can't rush these kinds of things."

Uchiha Miyuki sighed. Even without Uchiha Fugaku's reminder, he knew that in this situation, it was crucial not to rush.

Once the plan is exposed, then we'll have to compete on sheer strength.

How do you compete on hard power?

Kirigakure can muster two or three times the number of troops to deploy to the battlefield in the Land of Bears, and among them are countless powerful individuals. What about their side? Hyuga Hiashi is one, Uchiha Fugaku is one, Uchiha Miyuki is one, and the rest are slightly weaker. Whether it's the number of skilled fighters or the strength of their troops, they are several times weaker. This war is simply unwinnable!

In addition to the situation on other battlefields, being defeated on home soil is not a problem.

In fact, in the original work, Kirigakure did reach the mainland of the Land of Fire. However, Orochimaru stepped forward to resist Kirigakure's attack, which gave Konoha the opportunity to seek peace and led to the incident involving Hyuga Hizashi.

Orochimaru of Konoha was able to hold out because Might Guy activated the Eight Gates, directly crippling the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and a large number of Kirigakure's elite soldiers, and the fighting in other areas had subsided. At the same time, Obito Uchiha completely turned to the dark side, secretly manipulating the Fourth Mizukage to throw Kirigakure into chaos from within.

However, Konoha also experienced the Nine-Tails incident.

Uchiha Miyuki sighed, feeling a headache coming on.

"Let's stick to the original plan and see how the situation develops. If things don't work out, we'll leave."

As for where to go?

It is impossible to choose one of the other four major countries.

They dared to accept it, but the Uchiha clan dared not go there.

They could only choose a small country to infiltrate.

P.S.: I've made some changes to the previous section on obtaining the Commander-in-Chief of the Bear Kingdom.

It turned out that Fugaku Uchiha voluntarily stepped down.

And the previous issue of directly calling Uchiha Fugaku by his name.

147. This is the price of not slacking off!

In fact, Uchiha Miyuki also knew that as long as he remained in Konoha, the current higher-ups could only suppress him temporarily, not permanently.

The reason why I chose to leave immediately instead of enduring was that the effort and the reward were completely disproportionate.

Putting aside the current situation in Kirigakure, how many members of the Uchiha clan will die in this battle, and how much risk they will face.

Just considering the Nine-Tails incident in the future, should we try to stop it?

How can we prevent the Nine-Tails from being released from its seal in the face of Kamui? If it is released, should we use our eye techniques? If we don't use the Divine Intervention Technique, Konoha will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. And the other four great nations will certainly not miss this opportunity to take advantage of Konoha's strength, which will naturally lead to another great war.

Afterwards, the Uchiha clan will definitely have to go to the battlefield again to fight to the death, and afterwards they will be ostracized, suppressed, and suspected by the higher-ups.

This is precisely why the Uchiha clan in the original story wanted to launch a coup.

Using the Mangekyou Sharingan to alter the reality of the Nine-Tails escaping the seal would inevitably lead to blindness, or even death due to overuse of the Mangekyou Sharingan's power.

Then there were two traitors, Shisui and Itachi.

Such a huge mess.

Rather than facing this situation later and feeling troubled, it's better to avoid seeing it and having no worries.

As for the interstitial cells?

Once their strength increases, combined with their illusionary abilities, neither robbing nor stealing will be a problem.

The main issue is that most of the Uchiha clan members are currently gathered on the battlefield in the Land of Bears, leaving only the elderly, women, and children in the village. It's more resolute for them to evacuate from Konoha. The only question is how many people will leave with them and how many will want to stay in Konoha.

Just like the clan's philosophy of protecting its members, not everyone can see the situation as clearly as Fugaku Uchiha.

and--

The series of actions taken against him by higher-ups also brought him to his senses, making him realize what he truly wanted to do.

What I want is to make the world more familiar, not necessarily centered around Konoha.

It doesn't necessarily include the whole world!

Even without the Uchiha clan, it would be the same!

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the situation in the Land of Bears did not change much. Apart from the ninjas of Kirigakure summarizing a lot of fishing experience and skills, the remaining Kirigakure ninjas, as well as those Kirigakure ninjas who came from the Land of Water, were being gradually killed and captured under the pretext of the tight front lines and the easing of logistical pressure.

The second battle report about the Grass Country was also delivered to him.
