The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

Nawaki, who dreamed of becoming Hokage, was left with a shadow in his heart by the prospect of becoming Hokage.

Poor child. He's only twelve years old.

Extracting the information from various sources that requires the Hokage's decision, then reporting the rest to Tsunade and forwarding them to the relevant departments—this alone is quite exhausting. Not to mention that some matters that are within Nawaki's capabilities require him to handle personally.

"Ok?"

Rope Tree rubbed his eyes and carefully examined the scroll in his hand.

"Sister, take a look at this information. A ninja has discovered traces of the Hidden Mist Ninja."

Tsunade instantly became serious as she looked at the intelligence report in her hand.

"Has Kirigakure finally given up?"

Kirigakure didn't participate in the last Shinobi World War, and if they had internal village matters to attend to, there's no reason for them not to participate this time either.

It's only now that Kirigakure has begun to take action.

"The Uchiha and Hyuga clans have not been used yet. The teacher's idea should be to use them and the remaining ninjas in the village to fight against Kirigakure. The strategy is perfectly sound."

While the three generations of people had questionable character, they were still competent in this regard. Although they had the idea of ​​keeping the two major families around to weaken their power, it must be said that this was a rather good strategy.

"Go and inform the Fugaku clan chief and the Hyuga clan chief to come here. They have something to tell them."

Tsunade spoke to the shadows.

"Sister, are we going to fight Kirigakure? Can I go with them?"

Rope Tree's eyes were filled with longing.

He wanted to go to the battlefield to fight; he couldn't stand working here every day anymore.

If the village goes to war with Kirigakure again, there will be a shortage of manpower. I'll definitely have to go to the battlefield then, right?

Unfortunately, Rope Tree's beautiful dreams were met with harsh reality.

After the decisive battle between Konoha and Sunagakure, the pressure on Konoha has been greatly reduced. With the reinforcements from this army, even if they go to war with Kirigakure, they will not be short of manpower.

Tsunade refused without hesitation.

"no!"

What a joke! I'm sitting here busy doing this and that, all to revive you, kid.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and before he knew it, his fist was already on Rope Tree's head.

The guard at the door glanced inside, made sure it wasn't a table being smashed, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued standing guard.

"Ah, it hurts."

Rope Tree buried his face in his hands on the table, tears streaming down his face.

Half an hour later, the two clan leaders arrived at the Hokage's office.

"Lord Hokage."

"Hmm, take a look at this intelligence."

Tsunade handed the scroll containing the whereabouts of Kirigakure to the two of them.

After taking the scroll and glancing through it, the expressions of the two clan leaders gradually darkened.

Sure enough, even Kirigakure couldn't stand the loneliness.

Both of them had a clear understanding of their clan's mission. Konoha had been fighting against Kumogakure and Sunagakure for over a year without using them, and their purpose was self-evident.

"Does the Hokage want us to lead our clan's ninjas to resist Kirigakure?"

"That's right. As you both know, Konoha has very few ninjas left to offer, and the army in the Land of Rivers needs rest after a long war."

"Now it's time for your two clans to lend a hand. There are still some ninjas in the village; take them with you. You must hold off Kirigakure."

"You have three days to prepare. We will depart in three days."

"Yes"

Since things had already come to this point, the two clan leaders naturally had no choice but to accept it.

Moreover, as a major clan, they also have their own pride, and the power of the two major clans is not afraid of Kirigakure!

Of course, while they are called two major clans, it's actually only one and a half, as there are still Hyuga clan ninjas participating in the battle on the Land of Lightning battlefield.

The Uchiha clan was the only ones who didn't make a single move.

With Danzo gone, Fugaku Uchiha is now completely at ease, and he isn't too worried even if they are to be the main force against Kirigakure.

Although Tsunade also harbored resentment towards the Uchiha clan, she at least managed to restrain herself, making judgments solely from a doctor's perspective. In the past, there were Uchiha ninjas whose injuries were so severe that only Tsunade could treat them; generally, they would receive treatment, though she simply remained expressionless throughout.

The Sarutobi clan.

Half a month ago, in the battle with Hiruzen, Hiruzen Sarutobi lost a lot of blood, and his blood vessels and meridians were also severely damaged. Even more serious was Enma's injury.

After stepping down, the Third Hokage was not mistreated, after all, he was a Kage-level figure. Tsunade would also create a shadow clone to heal the Third Hokage's injuries when she had time. After half a month, the Third Hokage's injuries were healed, and Enma's injuries were also healed, leaving only a deep scar.

Physical injuries may heal, but emotional wounds are not so easy to heal.

Hui, a junior, was able to severely injure himself even when fighting two opponents alone. Such a defeat left too many shadows in his heart.

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt uneasy whenever he thought about the opponent's Water Release techniques.

It's not uncommon for people to master Water Release techniques to that level; Hiruzen Sarutobi's teacher, the Second Hokage, was no less powerful than Kaguya, but they can't be compared.

The Second Hokage was, after all, a ninja of the Senju clan, and the brother of Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi. How could he compare to Akira, a nobody?

Hiruzen Sarutobi was able to confirm that Kaguya had no bloodline.

However, even with such skill, the opponent had still managed to cultivate Water Release techniques to such a high level.

"How exactly did they do it?"

......

"Are you still fixated on that bullshit Five Elements Ninjutsu? Don't you understand? Strength is the most important thing. As long as you have power, everything is worthwhile. Why are you so fixated on Five Elements Ninjutsu?"

A sinister voice rang out from the darkness.

"Well, have you thought it through? That's the power of God. Don't you yearn for it?"

Hui forced you to abdicate and lose face. Don't you hate him? Don't you want revenge?

You're thinking about it; you definitely want revenge.

Only after you obtain the power of the gods can you take revenge!

The voices continued to entice Hiruzen Sarutobi. But Hiruzen remained silent, seemingly giving up, and the voices in the darkness ceased.

......

The Land of Thunder.

On the front lines in Konoha, Hui looked at the intelligence report in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"It's earlier than what's recorded in the future timeline. It must be because what I did made Kirigakure see an opportunity."

Although the incident two weeks ago did not have a significant impact on Konoha's overall performance on the battlefield, Kirigakure still saw it as an opportunity.

There will inevitably be mistakes during a change of power.

Since war is inevitable sooner or later, we might as well strike while Tsunade is still getting used to our situation and perhaps we can achieve something.

At the same time, the events in Kirigakure also served as a reminder to him.

"There may be quite a few things to change next, and we need to do a good job in intelligence work."

Let things change, I'll just treat it as a world without a storyline. I've already grown to this level, what do I have to fear about the changes in the ninja world?

Chapter 276 Soul Nourishing Pill

"Sigh, more work to do."

After completing the annihilation and revival technique, Tu Shi sighed.

Strengthening intelligence gathering naturally relies on these clones. Now, almost every clone is responsible for a region and intelligence gathering. He, Tu Shi, was assigned to the Land of Earth.

He now feels like he's the one who's been active the most among his clones.

There's nothing we can do about it; he became a rogue ninja so early and exposed his full strength. He doesn't need to suppress his power; he can use whatever means are available, making him one of the most carefree characters.

"Let's wait a little longer. The Soul Nourishing Pill is almost finished. Let's wait a few more days."

Looking at the nearly perfected formula for the Soul Nourishing Pill in his hand, Tu Shi decided to wait until the formula was finalized before leaving.

We're currently in the best of form, and this is the most efficient time to research the formula for the Soul Nourishing Pill.

Moreover, once the formula for the pill is perfected, it means that the Soul Nourishing Pill will have even better effects. At that time, the cultivation speed of the main body will also improve faster. Naturally, the sooner the better. After all, the confidence of the clones also comes from the main body.

"Awakening Grass, Soul-Nourishing Flower... With so many new ingredients added this time, the effects of the elixir should be greatly enhanced."

It's not just about expanding the ingredients; the details of alchemy techniques and the materials used have also been meticulously improved.

"This step isn't ideal. Ganoderma lucidum provides natural energy, so it's best if it plays a role throughout the entire process. Let's incorporate the fusion process into this step, allowing the Ganoderma lucidum liquid to continuously blend with the other ingredients in small increments. This applies not only to Ganoderma lucidum but also to the other ingredients."

......

half a month later.

"The research is finally complete, and the new formula for the Soul Nourishing Pill has been perfected."

The prescription is ready; now it's up to us to see how it's actually used and how effective it is.

During the war, Hui's supply of medicinal materials was cut off, and Tu Shi could only live frugally. Every time they researched new pills or improved pills, they had to start from the theory first, and only after the theory was sound could they carry out practical operation.

"Sigh, we don't have many Soul-Nourishing Flowers left. I hope things go smoothly."

Looking at the mere dozen or so Soul-Nourishing Flowers remaining in the reserves, Tu Shi sighed.

He took out all the necessary medicinal herbs and placed them in front of him, preparing to control them. Tu Shi then began this alchemy process.

Gentle flames gathered out of thin air in front of Tu Shi. After such a long time of alchemy, Tu Shi had made great progress in the changes of the nature of fire escape cultivation.

The flames floated in the air, remaining quite stable under the control of the earth and rocks.

Chakra surged in, expanding the range of the flames and splitting into several large balls of fire.

The soil and stones are used to purify the medicinal materials by immersing them in different flames.
