Hostile to the Uchiha? Don't regret relocating your entire clan!

While pondering, Hiruzen Sarutobi opened the scroll in his hand.

After glancing at it briefly, Hiruzen Sarutobi's chest began to heave violently.

He slammed his hand on the desk and roared, "These bastards are going too far!"

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's angry expression, Danzo Shimura asked curiously, "Hiruzen, what's wrong?"

"Those bastards from Kumogakure are demanding that we return the Uchiha clan's assets in the Land of Fire, or they'll wage war against Konoha!"

They accepted Konoha's rogue ninja without permission, but now, before they even have a chance to cause trouble, the other party is demanding money from them?

It’s simply unreasonable!

Danzo Shimura was also taken aback by the Cloud Village's bizarre actions.

He thought he was shameless enough, but he never expected that there would be someone in the world who was even more shameless than him.

Danzo Shimura instinctively wanted to say, "Let's fight!"

However, considering Hiruzen Sarutobi's style of doing things, Danzo Shimura changed his mind and asked, "How much do they want? Should we pay them?"

"I'll give him an egg as compensation!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi coldly said, "If you want to fight, then fight. If you don't show your power, you really think we're easy targets."

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with some surprise and asked, puzzled, "Hiruzen, are you sure?"

"Confirmed." Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a deep voice, "I'm sending Sakumo Hatake and Orochimaru to the front lines to see how long those guys can keep up their arrogance!"

"Hiruzen, you've finally made me look at you in a new light."

Danzo Shimura gave a thumbs up.

Taking the opportunity, Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Danzo, your Root should also go to the front lines to provide support."

"But then again, I think we can talk to the people of Kumogakure again..."

"Stop talking nonsense and get ready!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi chased away Danzo Shimura and stared blankly at the ceiling.

It wasn't that he was being tough; he simply couldn't afford to pay the compensation.

One hundred billion taels!!!

Those guys really dare to ask for an exorbitant amount!

They even said that based on an annual revenue of 100 million taels, they would only charge for 100 years.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was so angry he laughed!

Putting aside whether he's willing to pay or not, even if he wanted to, he simply doesn't have that much money to spare right now.

The village was in dire need of money after the Nine-Tailed Fox's attack.

Clearing rubble, rebuilding houses, compensation for the injured and deceased, workers' wages, material costs...

The money is still nowhere to be found, let alone compensation.

The Uchiha clan is inherently evil!

You've lived in this village for so many years, how can you be so heartless towards us?!

A dozen or so Konoha ninjas were patrolling the border, but their expressions were quite relaxed.

"Honestly, the Hokage is being too cautious. I don't believe those guys from Kumogakure would dare to attack Konoha first."

"Yes, we won two Shinobi World Wars. If those Cloud Shinobi dare to come, we'll kill them all."

"So what if the Uchiha clan joined Kumogakure? I really don't know what they have to be so arrogant about."

"They can't really be so foolish as to think that Konoha became the strongest ninja village in the ninja world because of those Uchiha, can they?"

"Hahahahaha..."

The group of Konoha ninjas burst into unrestrained laughter.

Suddenly, a blue lightning bolt flashed, and a Konoha ninja was sent flying, his chest caved in, and he was lifeless.

"Heavy Explosion Stream!"

With another loud shout, the burly man, his body surrounded by arcs of electricity, delivered an elbow strike, sending a Konoha ninja's head flying.

"No, enemy attack!"

The remaining Konoha ninjas then realized what was happening, and their previous composure vanished.

In the crowd, someone was about to take out a signal flare to call for help when they found a very fierce-looking man standing in front of them.

In the man's eyes, the scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan slowly rotated.

"The Uchiha clan will prove that you became the strongest ninja village in the ninja world because of us."

The blade flashed, piercing the chest of the Konoha ninja.

In just a short moment, more than a dozen Konoha ninjas were killed.

Before long, a ripple appeared in the space, and the figure of Uchiha Yuzuru appeared out of thin air.

"All outposts have been cleared. Fugaku and A, each of you lead your men and launch an attack on Konoha's headquarters!"

The two men immediately took the order and left.

Even Ai dared not utter a single word at this moment.

For large-scale operations like this, strict discipline is essential.

If they disobey orders, Uchiha Yuzuru has the right to execute them on the spot.

As the Cloud Ninja, who had been lying in ambush, charged toward Konoha's main camp on the border, Uchiha Yuzuru's face remained calm and expressionless.

Konoha's border camp.

A large number of Konoha ninjas patrolled the area, with ninjas occasionally entering and leaving with intelligence scrolls; everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

In the huge room at the center, Nara Shikaka frowned as he looked at the information on the table, a bad feeling rising in his heart.

Akimichi Tadaaki, who was standing to the side, asked, "Lu Feng, why are you so serious?"

Nara Shikakaze said in a deep voice, "Something's not right. We haven't heard from the outermost outpost for over three hours. I suspect something has happened."

On the other side, Yamanaka Ike asked in surprise, "No way, we have so many outposts on the outermost perimeter. If there were any emergency, they should have sent us a signal by now, right?"

“This is exactly what I was worried about.” Nara Shikakaze’s expression grew increasingly grim. “With so many outposts losing contact at the same time, we might be in trouble again!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the earth began to tremble, as if thousands of horses were galloping at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, a chilling shout rang out in the distance.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Nara Shikafū's forehead: "Quick! Notify everyone to prepare for battle immediately!"

Chapter 49 What kind of Yin is this?

The Konoha ninja reacted very quickly.

Upon receiving Nara Shikafū's order, all the ninjas immediately assembled.

Although he looked tense, he didn't appear panicked.

They had already set up numerous traps near the camp to deal with various situations.

Trying to storm their camp is simply wishful thinking!

However, just as they were on high alert, waiting for the Cloud Ninja to walk right into their trap, a jet-black chakra ball streaked across the distant horizon, leaving behind a dazzling trail.

To the astonishment of the Konoha ninja, the chakra ball exploded above the camp.

The high temperature and shockwave from the explosion instantly turned the Konoha camp into ruins.

Immediately afterwards, a second chakra ball arrived.

It carved a wide and deep trench in the ground, and then exploded again in the Konoha camp.

"It's a Tailed Beast Ball!"

"Damn it, the Hidden Cloud Village has deployed a perfect Jinchuriki."

"Please do not gather together; keep a certain distance from each other."

The two Tailed Beast Balls shattered the Konoha ninja's formation, turning the once disciplined ninja into a chaotic mess.

Even with Nara Shikafū's desperate command, it was all in vain.

Even more terrifying, the ninjas from Kumogakure had already charged in all at once along the trenches plowed out by the Tailed Beast Balls.

The traps set up by the Konoha ninjas in advance were completely destroyed by the Tailed Beast Ball attack.

What kind of evil spirit is this?!

"Hahahaha... Follow me and charge! Today, let these Konoha ninjas see how powerful we are."

"Look at these idiots running around everywhere. They're probably terrified by the Tailed Beast Ball."

"Today, we'll teach these arrogant fools a lesson on behalf of our Uchiha brothers."

"Thanks, brother, but we Uchiha clan ninjas prefer to do things ourselves. We've been putting up with them for a long time. Today, we'll show them why the Sharingan is so red!"

In the distance, Uchiha Yuzuru and the Third Raikage stood side by side, silently watching the battlefield ahead.

Under the leadership of A, Killer Bee, and Fugaku Uchiha, the Konoha ninjas couldn't even put up a decent resistance.

Defeat was only a matter of time.

Looking at Uchiha Yuzuru, the Third Raikage couldn't help but say, "Is this really a Konoha ninja? He looks so vulnerable."

"However... Yuzuru, you don't seem as happy as I expected."

Uchiha Yuzuru said calmly, "I don't like opening champagne at the halfway point. An advantage in one battle doesn't mean anything."

Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage nodded.

He felt increasingly fortunate for his initial decision.

It can be said that the smooth progress of today's battle is entirely due to Uchiha Yuzuru.

Unbeknownst to them, Uchiha Yuzuru had located all the outposts in front of Konoha, which is why they were able to eliminate all of Konoha's outposts in an instant.

It was also because Uchiha Yuzuru found the location of the Konoha camp and proposed using the Tailed Beast Ball to break the trap that they were able to successfully engage the Konoha ninja in close combat.

From any perspective, there is nothing wrong with it.

If such a person becomes an enemy, he would probably have a headache and be unable to sleep all night.

Fortunately, this time, Konoha took the initiative to deliver such a strong person into his hands.

Deep underground in the command center, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Sakumo Hatake, and the others carefully studied the map under the incandescent light, their faces devoid of any smiles.

The war has been going on for a month, and the ninjas of Konoha Village have suffered heavy losses.

Even with Orochimaru and others personally coming to the front lines to provide support, it only delayed the advance of the Hidden Cloud Village.

The Hidden Cloud Village's fighting style is just too shameless.

No matter how well they concealed themselves, the enemy could always pinpoint their command post with pinpoint accuracy, then unleash a Tailed Beast Ball at the command post, and then unleash another Tailed Beast Ball at the area where the ninjas were gathered.

What followed was a mindless, reckless charge into battle...

Even though Orochimaru and his companions were seasoned veterans, they had no way to deal with this.

We can't just scatter our ninjas, can we?

That would be no different from sending them to their deaths.

In the silence, Orochimaru's voice was hoarse and cold as he looked at everyone and said, "The war with Kumogakure has been going on for too long. This can't go on forever. Sunagakure and Iwagakure are already showing signs of amassing troops on the border."

"We must end the battle with Kumogakure before they launch their offensive."

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya nodded: "I agree. As long as we can hold off A, Killer Bee, and Fugaku Uchiha, these top-tier fighters from Kumogakure, our ninjas will definitely not lose to them."

He originally planned to take Minato Namikaze on a tour of the ninja world, and try to control the power of the Nine-Tails along the way.

However, the war between Kumogakure and Konoha forced him to temporarily shelve his plans.

Minato Namikaze, standing to the side, felt a little guilty and said softly, "If I could also control the power of the Nine-Tails, we wouldn't be in such a passive position."

Not only can he not go to the battlefield to help now, he also has to carefully hide so as not to be discovered by Uchiha Yuzuru...
