The Great Hero Uchiha

Given his current strength and the intelligence he possesses, the key to dealing with Akatsuki and Obito Uchiha is not how to kill them, but how to force them to come out. At this time, Nagato is recruiting members for Akatsuki, so they may not be in Amegakure. Bringing the war to the Land of Rain is to force Nagato to appear.

Even if Nagato doesn't show up, the Akatsuki's core members will, and he can use that opportunity to infiltrate the Akatsuki and find a way to drag Nagato out.

Actually, he could have easily accomplished this by infiltrating directly.

The reason for going through all this trouble, besides going with the flow, is mainly to cover up the truth and prevent Black Zetsu from knowing that he knows too much information.

He only did these things because he made Black Zetsu believe that he had accidentally discovered the Akatsuki organization.

……

Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.

As Sunagakure mobilized its forces, Konoha belatedly began to gather its own, and the shadow of war once again loomed over the entire village.

But this time is different from the past.

Uchiha Miyuki proposed a new policy at a high-level meeting.

"Ninjas under the age of thirteen are prohibited from participating in the battle."

As for why it's thirteen years old?

If the age were adjusted up by just one year, let alone war, even organizing any defense would become a problem. The standard of thirteen years old is already the limit that Konoha can currently achieve. Konoha suffered too heavy losses in the Third Shinobi World War, and there are less than five hundred ninjas over the age of twenty left.

A high-ranking member of Konoha frowned and asked.

"Fifth Hokage, won't this lead to a shortage of troops?"

Uchiha Miyuki sighed, "If it really doesn't work, let's send ninjas under the age of thirteen to fight."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After a moment's hesitation, Uchiha Miyuki continued speaking.

"Minister Shuimen, you stay in the village. I will go to the front lines myself."

The main reason for leaving Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki behind was to prevent Obito Uchiha from secretly abducting the One-Tailed Jinchuriki.

Compared to Obito Uchiha, Nagato's Rinnegan was the key to the Akatsuki. If they could get their hands on Nagato's Rinnegan, they could use it to lure Obito and Black Zetsu. If they couldn't eliminate Black Zetsu, they would have to destroy the Rinnegan after defeating Obito, thus cutting off Black Zetsu's desire and allowing him to continue hiding.

Minato Namikaze roughly understood Uchiha Miyuki's thoughts and immediately nodded in agreement.

"it is good."

War orders were issued one after another.

The entire village of Konoha sprang into action, and two months later, the two sides met again in the Land of Rivers.

The Land of Rivers has barely had a chance to catch its breath after the previous wars when it is once again facing the armies of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind.

Unlike previous wars.

Before the war broke out, the Land of Wind took the initiative to propose a meeting with the Fifth Hokage, Uchiha Miyuki.

It is obvious that the Land of Wind has tasted the benefits of trade between the two countries and is unwilling to go to war directly with the Land of Fire, destroy everything and return to the days when they were poor and could only rely on the Fourth Kazekage to collect gold sand every day to make a living. However, the incident of the One-Tailed Jinchuriki cannot be ignored.

Furthermore, the Fourth Kazekage believed that the Fifth Hokage's personal expedition stemmed from the same thought he had: he did not want war to break out again.

The Fourth Kazekage wasn't stupid. Realizing there might be an enemy trap, he naturally wouldn't walk headlong into it. That's why he proposed meeting with Uchiha Miyuki to send a signal to Konoha, stabilize the tense situation, and wait together for the mastermind to appear. Any action the other party took would leave clues, which Sunagakure could then follow to investigate.

The two sides met in the center of the battlefield.

The Fifth Hokage.

"The Fourth Kazekage".

After responding, Uchiha Miyuki questioned, "What exactly does your Land of Wind mean? Why are you starting another war?"

The Fourth Kazekage's expression remained unchanged.

"Someone with a kaleidoscope and who looks exactly like you infiltrated Sunagakure and attacked me!"

Uchiha Miyuki was not surprised that the Fourth Kazekage had concealed the loss of the One-Tailed Jinchuriki; it would be foolish for the Fourth Kazekage to openly discuss such a matter.

"As the Fourth Kazekage, you don't even know a ninjutsu like the Transformation Technique, do you!?"

“A person’s appearance can be imitated, but the power of your Mangekyou Sharingan is something that cannot be imitated by transformation techniques.”

"That doesn't prove that this was done by Konoha. And what's the point of attacking your Sunagakure?! To hinder our import of ore?! Or to provoke another war with your Land of Wind?!"

"No matter who that person is, this kaleidoscope is only possessed by your clan."

"You should know very well who that murderer is. We in Konoha want to kill that person even more than your Sunagakure."

"I don't know who the murderer is, I only know that he has a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan."

The two argued calmly.

Uchiha Miyuki also realized the Fourth Kazekage's plans, and at the same time, he realized that Uchiha Obito had not interfered with the meeting between the two sides, which meant that he had abandoned the original plan and wanted to observe in secret what he wanted to do after taking away the One-Tailed Jinchuriki. He filtered this information through his mind and began to secretly plan how to take advantage of this situation and let the war spread directly to the Land of Rain.

P.S.: Chapter 4

I have to write five chapters today.

We can no longer afford to be negligent.

Eye problems usually don't bother with cod liver oil. When I had this problem before, taking cod liver oil for a few days always cleared it up. Hmm, it could also be due to a small, enclosed room or excessive smoking, causing eye irritation.

222. The situation has become completely chaotic.

Uchiha Miyuki was so certain because he sensed that White Zetsu was secretly observing everything.

Previously, a barrier was needed to detect White Zetsu, but now, by simply mobilizing a portion of the Hyuga's Yin Release power and without needing to project his own Abnormal Byakugan, he can observe things within a radius of several kilometers through his eyes. If he only scans roughly, it is still difficult to detect the existence of White Zetsu, but he can observe them by conducting a targeted search.

The simplest method is to control the Fourth Kazekage using his pupil power.

To control a Kage-level powerhouse, the Kaleidoscope needs to first subdue the target and then gradually hypnotize them using its eye power.

Perhaps it was through a secret technique that the tailed beast within the Jinchuriki was manipulated, and then hypnotized using the tailed beast's chakra.

Using the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan would be relatively simpler, but this method leaves too many openings. He would not reveal that he possesses the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan before facing Nagato. Only in this way could he launch a surprise attack and take down Nagato in one fell swoop to seize the Rinnegan.

The two parted ways on their first day of meeting, seemingly without reaching any agreement.

After returning to the main camp in Konoha, Uchiha Miyuki summoned Uchiha Fugaku.

"Clan leader, take some ninjas and go to the Land of Rain, disguise yourself as Sand Ninjas, and attack the Rain Ninjas. Be careful."

"it is good."

This is exactly the method Danzo used before: disguising himself as an Iwa ninja to attack the people of the Land of Rain, thus inciting a war between Iwagakure and Amegakure. However, while carrying out this plan, he unexpectedly discovered the Akatsuki organization. In order to prevent Amegakure from becoming stronger, he secretly instigated Hanzo to join forces with him to kill Yahiko.

The plan was essentially no different from Danzo's plan, except that the attack on civilians was replaced with an attack on Amegakure.

The reason for replicating this strategy was that he was worried that if he made it too subtle, Obito Uchiha would not understand the signals he was sending out and would not understand that he actually wanted to use Amegakure to deplete Sunagakure's forces.

As for Zetsu revealing Fugaku Uchiha's whereabouts to Nagato, which led to his encounter with Akatsuki members...

Who can be absolutely safe on the battlefield?!

The reason why Fugaku Uchiha was chosen was because only Fugaku Uchiha was suitable to carry out this task. The information that Miyuki Uchiha was about to present to the Akatsuki was that the Uchiha clan had secretly plotted all of this, and that Miyuki Uchiha was a hypocritical and ambitious man! He began to show his ambition after becoming the Fifth Hokage.

After arranging this matter, he did nothing but argue with the Fourth Kazekage.

The Fourth Kazekage awaited the enemy's move, while Uchiha Miyuki awaited news from Uchiha Fugaku.

……

Just as Uchiha Miyuki had predicted, Zetsu revealed Uchiha Fugaku's whereabouts to Nagato.

However, Nagato is not currently in Amegakure.

Instead, they were secretly manipulating the course of the war within the Land of Earth.

The two communicated through phantom images using the power of the Gedo Mazo via the Akatsuki ring.

"Payne, something bad has happened."

"What happened?"

"Konoha sent Uchiha Fugaku to Sunagakure to attack Amegakure ninja, intending to provoke a war between the two countries to deplete Sunagakure's forces. Uchiha Miyuki's abduction of the One-Tailed Jinchuriki was part of a scheme to crush Sunagakure, thereby extracting enough benefits from it and weakening Amegakure's strength."

Black Zetsu couldn't see through Uchiha Miyuki's scheme, not because the other party was too stupid, but because there was a huge information gap between the two sides, just like how he secretly used Uchiha Madara.

They took advantage of the fact that Madara Uchiha was unaware of the truth.

Uchiha Miyuki took advantage of the fact that Black Zetsu was unaware that Uchiha Miyuki already knew the whole truth, including Black Zetsu's plan.

As long as Black Zetsu remains unaware of this, he will never be able to see through Uchiha Miyuki's scheme.

Just like Madara Uchiha couldn't see through his schemes.

Payne appeared expressionless, but Nagato's brows were furrowed.

Now that he and Konan have left the Land of Rain, if Konoha were to direct the war into the Land of Rain's territory, not to mention whether the organization's intelligence would be exposed, the war would bring pain to the Land of Rain, which is something Nagato cannot allow! Because that is the place that Yahiko and Konan are meant to protect.

"Proceed according to the original plan and let Konoha and Sunagakure fight each other."

"it is good."

This plan is not surprising to Blackbeard.

In fact, the reason for deliberately coming to inform Nagato was to make Nagato feel that he was in control of the whole situation, thereby numbing Nagato's consciousness.

Just like Madara Uchiha in the past.

After ending the communication and returning to reality, Black Zetsu directed White Zetsu to secretly absorb the chakra of Sand Ninja and Konoha Ninja, using the [Disguise Technique] to disguise themselves as ninjas from the two villages.

The Art of Impersonation

Unlike ordinary transformation techniques, this is a technique that allows one to absorb another's chakra and then recreate that chakra in the same way, making it undetectable even to the most familiar person or a ninja with strong sensory abilities. In the original story, the White Zetsu army used this technique to absorb the chakra of others, transform into their appearances, and infiltrate the Allied Shinobi Forces to engage in internal warfare.

With the White Zetsu army secretly instigating conflict, the situation between the two sides is becoming increasingly tense.

War has inevitably broken out.

Because Sunagakure was ambushed by Konoha ninja, and Konoha ninja were ambushed by Sunagakure ninja, coupled with White Zetsu disguising themselves as ninja from both sides to transmit false information and using the "Disguise Technique" to seize partial command, even the two commanders-in-chief, Uchiha Miyuki and the Fourth Kazekage, could not completely control the situation.

This is why Uchiha Miyuki believed that war was unavoidable.

White Zetsu's [Disguise Technique] makes it incredibly easy to instigate a war, and it's impossible to defend against. Its only weakness is its lack of strength; each individual is only at the level of a Chunin.

Although the Fourth Kazekage had anticipated this situation, he was increasingly confused by the various true and false information, making it harder and harder to discern whether Uchiha Miyuki was secretly plotting against Sunagakure or someone was secretly trying to instigate a war between the two countries. At this moment, the Anbu sent a message.

[Konoha's Anbu and some of its troops are being redeployed towards the Land of Rain.]
