Naruto: Yes, Uchiha-sama!

Compared to Konoha, Akatsuki Village is easier to control. Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama of Konoha are both well-known strong men in the ninja world. Although Uchiha Makoto's strength is well-known in Akatsuki Village, he is still unknown in the ninja world, a stray dog ​​on the roadside, with no outstanding achievements.

Of course, you should choose the softest persimmons.

Although this behavior made the First Raikage somewhat disgusted, he certainly wanted to take Konoha with him, but because of his lack of strength, he could only avoid the limelight for the time being.

For the Hidden Cloud Village.

This is a necessary sacrifice for me as the Raikage.

"What if Konoha and Akatsuki Village investigate?" Ginkaku, who had darker skin, also asked.

"This is their blackmail. As long as we take equal countermeasures, the Akatsuki Village will definitely retreat!"

"Hmph, are they going to start a war against the Hidden Cloud Village just because of a few Chunins? At worst, we'll fight them to the death. We'll fight them with our own strength and block their attacks with our own earth!"

The First Raikage didn't care about the pursuit of Konoha and Akatsuki Village at all.

This is bluffing!

Konoha just wants to use Akatsuki Village as a pawn to exert extreme pressure and blackmail in the front. If Kumogakure Village is weak, Konoha and Akatsuki Village will become more and more aggressive, while Kumogakure Village will be firm and take equal countermeasures.

Akatsuki Village will definitely be helpless. This matter itself is a common task conflict in the Warring States Period. It will never escalate to the level of war because the gains will not outweigh the losses.

Konoha, as the manipulator behind the scenes, will also give up and order the Akatsuki Village to change its tone. Only then will this matter have a chance to be properly resolved.

"Lord Raikage is wise!!"

The First Raikage broke down the essence of the whole thing and told it to the strong and big guys present. They listened with fascination and looked as if they had suddenly understood.

As expected of Lord Raikage!

Not only are his muscles better trained than theirs, he also possesses extraordinary political skills.

The future of Yunyin Village is promising!

Akatsuki Village.

"Why do you all think I'm bluffing? You don't really think the Akatsuki Village doesn't dare to start a war, do you?"

Uchiha Makoto looked at the statement from the Hidden Cloud Village and grinned. He had already begun to confirm the final war supplies.

The ninjas who had endured the high-intensity ninja battles of the Warring States Period had considerable experience in this matter. Each of them basically had a fixed set of templates that could be used as a ninja village combat plan after some rough modifications.

But on this basis.

Uchiha Makoto added a lot of things into it. The money of the ninja clan was hard-earned, and adhering to the spirit of saving as much as possible, most of them advocate simplicity, avoid unnecessary expenses whenever possible, and spend money wisely.

But Uchiha Makoto didn't care about that.

Add money!

Fill it up!

The wartime supply chain system that he had spent so much money on was not built in vain. Everything that the ninja could use was fully prepared.

This is how funds should be spent.

Especially at such a critical moment.

This is the first war that Uchiha Makoto has forcibly launched against all odds. He must win big. This is a battle to establish his prestige!

If they lost the battle, or if the ninja clan suffered too much loss, even if Uchiha Madara was there to support him, Uchiha Makoto would most likely have to abdicate and apologize.

After giving all the orders that needed to be done today, Uchiha Makoto looked at the time.

Two visitors are about to arrive today.

Shinji Uzumaki and Setsuna Uchiha, one is the patriarch of the Uzumaki clan and the other is the messenger of Konoha. I don’t know whether they had discussed it in advance or it was just a coincidence, but they both agreed to meet with me this afternoon.

The two arrived at the Light and Shadow Building almost one after the other, with no more than ten minutes in between, so Uchiha Makoto simply entertained them together.

"You two have come from far away, I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person!"

"Cheng, long time no see" X2

Although Uchiha Makoto had guessed their purpose, he knew that both of them were lobbyists trying to persuade him, which was contrary to his own purpose.

However, Uchiha Makoto greeted the two of them warmly.

After all, Uchiha Setsuna is a member of his own clan, and Uchiha Makoto had killed members of the Senju clan with him in the same trench before, so they could be considered comrades-in-arms who had killed people together. According to the plot line, Uchiha Setsuna will also launch a just trial against Senju Tobirama and restore order to Konoha.

There will be many opportunities for them to cooperate in the future!

And Shinji Uzumaki.

Needless to say, the relationship between them is worth 38.6 billion taels.

Uchiha Makoto poured each of them a cup of hot tea. This time there was no unnecessary greetings and they both chose to get straight to the point.

"Makoto, regarding the compensation terms that your Akatsuki Village has proposed to the Hidden Cloud Village, the Hokage believes that they are too harsh. For the sake of the situation in the ninja world and for the sake of peace, the Hokage hopes that you will make concessions and resolve this matter as peacefully as possible."

"Yes, Makoto, you are being too reckless in this matter. Regarding the compensation clauses, I've seen the strength of the Hidden Cloud Village. I've also heard that it's a large ninja village that dominates the entire Land of Lightning. There's no benefit in making enemies with them."

Uchiha Setsuna spoke out his purpose, and Uzumaki Shinji supported him.

"I know exactly what you said, but I did it on purpose. This war, if we don't fight it today, will happen in the future. Since it will happen sooner or later, we might as well fight it sooner rather than later. Besides, our Akatsuki, Konoha, and Uzushinobi are allies. Now it's three ninja villages against one, and the advantage is on my side!"

Uchiha Makoto spoke his mind and expressed his views on the future of the ninja world. Sooner or later, conflicts would arise among the ninja villages due to friction in missions, which would lead to war. It would be better to take advantage of our strong strength to eliminate and weaken the ninja villages that dared to offend as much as possible.

Uchiha Setsuna was silent.

He also participated in the emergency meeting that day. Uchiha Makoto's views were exactly the same as Madara-sama's, except that Madara-sama's approach was more extreme. He directly planned to destroy other ninja villages in the ninja world and eventually unify the ninja world!

Shinji Uzumaki had a pensive expression. He had to admit that Uchiha Makoto was right, but the cost of launching a war was too high. Even if the Uzumaki clan was greatly helped by the Akatsuki Village, they would have to think twice. After all, war is not just about burning money, it also requires the deployment of ninjas to fight.

If Akatsuki Village wants to start a war, and Konoha can keep up, then the Uzumaki clan will definitely follow suit, but Konoha's attitude is

"Although Senju Tobirama has issued a gag order, you are not an outsider... er."

Uchiha Setsuna subconsciously glanced at Uzumaki Shinji standing beside him. After the meeting that day, Senju Tobirama not only issued an order to cover their mouths, but also instructed the ninja representatives attending the meeting not to disclose the content of the meeting, especially Uchiha Madara's "big words." However, Uchiha Makoto is a member of the Uchiha clan, so it's okay to say it.

Uchiha Makoto noticed this and added, "Uzumaki Shinji is not an outsider either, just say whatever you want."

"Then I'll be honest. Madara-sama and you have the same opinion, but Hokage-sama disagrees. The two of them even had a big argument at the meeting. After all, the Uchiha clan still doesn't have as much say as the Senju clan in Konoha. So if you insist on going to war with the Hidden Cloud Village, Konoha probably won't send troops. If you, the Akatsuki Shinobi Village, fight the Hidden Cloud Village alone, not only will the outcome be uncertain, but you will also suffer heavy losses!"

Uchiha Setsuna spoke the truth. The Senju clan has always had the final say in Konoha. Although the Uchiha clan is also the founding family of Konoha, it does not have the final decision-making power.

Hashirama Senju had already made his attitude clear that day. Konoha would never start a war because of this matter. At most, they would help Uchiha Makoto when Akatsuki Village could no longer hold on, but the final outcome of Akatsuki Village would definitely not be satisfactory.

Uchiha Makoto just smiled, he had already expected this result, then he looked at Uzumaki Shinji, who was feeling quite uncomfortable now.

If the Konoha boss doesn't follow, then what will happen if the Uzumaki clan follows.

But luckily.

Uchiha Makoto withdrew his gaze after a few seconds. He did not let Uzumaki Shinji make a decision immediately.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on. Akatsuki Village will definitely win!"

"Cheng, are you really not considering it anymore?"

"This involves the future of your Akatsuki Village!"

Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji were still trying to persuade him, not wanting Uchiha Makoto to do anything stupid out of anger.

"It seems that you have some misunderstandings about the strength of Akatsuki Village."

"Do you know what money power is?"

Chapter 89: War is all about money and food, so learn about your monetary power!

"Money ability?"

Uchiha Makoto said this.

However, it was obvious that Uzumaki Shinji and Uchiha Setsuna did not understand the meaning of Uchiha Makoto's words, and they continued to persuade him.

Uchiha Makoto could feel the sincerity of Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji. They did not want Uchiha Makoto to rashly declare a war on the Hidden Cloud Village in a fit of rage. Even though the strength of the Akatsuki Village was not weak, the outcome was still uncertain.

If Konoha did not send troops to help, even if Akatsuki Village won, it would be a miserable victory, which would be a loss-making situation.

"It would be putting the cart before the horse to drag yourself into the quagmire of war now just for the possibility of a war in the future. Even if a war does break out, it will be an offensive and defensive alliance between Akatsuki Village, Konoha, and the Uzumaki clan."

Uzumaki Shinji persuaded this, and Uchiha Setsuna beside him nodded.

"Humph"

Uchiha Makoto smiled and did not express any opinion. When Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha both passed away, Uchiha Makoto would be very grateful if Konoha did not stab the Akatsuki Village in the back. The old ghost Senju, who was born evil, would definitely find an opportunity to do something bad!

However, Uchiha Makoto felt it was necessary to clarify the current strength of the Akatsuki Village to Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji.

We must make them both loyal fans of Akatsuki Village!

Uchiha Setsuna!

If you want to defeat Senju Tobirama in the future, remember to think of me first.

And Uzumaki Shinji, please be sure to stand firmly on the side of Akatsuki Village, you will not suffer any loss!

With this in mind, Uchiha Makoto took the two of them out of the Light and Shadow Building and came to a secret base.

"Cheng, where is this place?"

"Yeah, why does it feel like we're getting further and further off track?"

Uchiha Makoto didn't say much, cast a seal and opened the door of this secret base.

"Fuck!!"

"Exaggeration. That can't be all."

Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji had completely lost control of their expressions as they saw the entire secret base filled with yellow detonating tags.

They were also battle-hardened ninjas. Logically, they shouldn't be so surprised to see the detonating tags, but such a number of detonating tags was really too exaggerated, far beyond their imagination. Their expressions were quite like that of Obito seeing Konan prepare 6000 billion detonating tags to bomb him.

“That’s just part of it.”

"I'll take you somewhere else."

Uchiha Makoto showed Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji the war reserves of Akatsuki Village this time. Putting aside Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, the ninja world is still very normal at the moment.

War is nothing more than money and food.

The better the equipment and the more detonating tags, the stronger the combat effectiveness. Even a Jonin would not dare to confront a Genin covered in detonating tags. If he saw such a vicious person flying towards him, he would definitely run away. What if this was a shadow clone?

"Cheng, when did you, Akatsuki Village, prepare these war supplies?"
