The western part of the Land of Fire, and the southern coastal region of the Land of Rivers.
Deep within the dark, damp forest, a dozen figures frantically ambushed a Konoha squad.
"Captain, there's no escape."
The people behind them are closing in.
"Report: Sunagakure Puppets have appeared ahead."
Clearly, the situation is developing in a direction unfavorable to the Konoha team.
"Damn it." The squad leader looked around, his face gradually darkening. "We can't escape."
His strength wasn't great; he barely reached the level of Elite Chunin.
Even more devastatingly, his teammates were also a group of kids who had just graduated from the Ninja Academy.
Logically speaking, they shouldn't have attracted so many enemies; clearly, they stumbled upon an enemy who was planning something.
Knowing he couldn't escape, the squad leader decided to fight to the death and at least take one of them down with him.
I feel somewhat sorry for these children who trusted me.
"Oh, right, we can use this."
"That's right, the time has finally come for it to show its Kamui."
"Hehe, actually I've been looking forward to it for a while now."
The three little devils exchanged glances, their faces filled with mischievous smiles.
Upon seeing this, the squad leader's eyes lit up instantly, wondering if his subordinates were hiding some amazing secret technique.
"So, which one should we use first?"
"Well, let's use Shadow Clones to offset our numerical disadvantage."
Then the squad leader saw his three subordinates suddenly form a hand seal.
Before he could even understand what was happening, a light mist enveloped the area.
Bang bang bang!
In the blink of an eye, a total of thirty Shadow Clones appeared on the scene.
The Konoha team turned the tide in one fell swoop.
"Holy crap!" The squad leader exclaimed in shock.
He used his Points to exchange for Shadow Clones, which he frequently used to gather intelligence and sometimes even to set traps to lure enemies into his traps.
Even so, the man couldn't create ten Shadow Clones at once. Even if he managed to do so, the power of the clones would drop to a level lower than that of Genin.
But judging from the appearance of his subordinates, their strength doesn't seem to have diminished significantly.
How strange!
On the other side, the Shadow Clone Technique worked perfectly, and the three newly graduated Genin instantly went wild.
"Hehe, watch my Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Without even forming a hand seal, a powerful water dragon engulfed the enemy.
"I'll use the Great Fire Dragon Technique."
A massive Fire Dragon roared out and instantly incinerated the charging enemies.
"Behold my Chidori Sharp Spear!"
A four-meter-long lightning blade pierced through, easily piercing the enemy in front.
For a moment, the situation was completely under the control of the three little devils.
"What's going on with these brats?!" Sunagakure was furious.
It's not surprising that they use Ninjutsu, but the problem is that you can't even see their hand seals.
Many times, you think the other party is going to fight with Taijutsu, and just as you're about to make your move, you run into their Ninjutsu.
The power of these Ninjutsu is actually not that great; it's not to the point of being unstoppable. The key is that it leaves no trace, making it impossible to defend against.
When did so many hand seal-less Ninjutsu appear in the Shinobi World?!
Is this the secret to Konoha becoming the strongest Hidden Village?
Before long, all the pursuing enemies were wiped out, and the three little devils still felt a bit unsatisfied.
"That's all?"
"I still have six scrolls I haven't had time to use yet."
"Well, it's fine if they're gone. I actually only had one left."
Beside him, the squad leader remained completely bewildered. He wondered if he was getting old, since he couldn't understand what they were saying.
Seeing this, the three Genin finally revealed the truth.
"That's right, we're using something called a Scientific Ninja Tools, which can store..."
After listening to his subordinates' explanation and hearing the orders from higher-ups that no information should be revealed before the mission was launched, the squad leader finally understood.
"I see, no wonder you can use so many Ninjutsu."
"With it, Konoha will be invincible!"
Similar situations occurred frequently throughout the western theater of war.
Sometimes, in the middle of a fight, you might suddenly encounter Konoha Genin using "no-seal Ninjutsu".
Caught off guard, even Jonin could fall victim, let alone Chunin and Genin whose reactions are far slower.
Fire Release and Water Release are quite common, and occasionally one can hear A Thousand Birds Crying.
The most outrageous thing is that a certain Genin released Hashirama's famous technique, Birth of the Tree World, with a simple gesture.
This directly rewrote the course of the local battlefield.
Lacking experience in dealing with such situations, the Sunagakure was completely overwhelmed by a group of Genin.
"What's going on? Is there something wrong with my senses? How come the Genin from Konoha are more troublesome than the Jonin?!"
No, I think so too.
"Most Jonin are documented, so we know how to deal with them in advance, but Genin..."
"That's outrageous! Yesterday I encountered a Genin used a combination of Ninjutsu. If I weren't Puppet, I probably wouldn't be back."
"How exactly does Konoha train its people...?"
This is a question everyone has, but unfortunately, no one can answer it for them yet.
In just three days, the Sunagakure, with twice the manpower, was completely routed by a group of Konoha Genin, and even lost its frontline fortress in the Land of Rivers.
Left with no other choice, they had to retreat to their own borders and defend against any attacks from Konoha.
Just as they were preparing for the great battle, Sunagakure suddenly noticed that Konoha seemed to have stopped advancing.
Is it because they don't want to come to the Land of Wind to fight?
Many people had similar thoughts, but only Konoha knew the truth: the Genin had run out of Ninjutsu Scrolls.
The village is working overtime to finish the task; until then, it's best to avoid major conflicts with the enemy.
Two months passed in a slightly eerie atmosphere.
Sunagakure replenished its forces and prepared to regroup and start a new war, only to be met with a fully recovered Konoha Genin.
The Wood Dragon Technique roared into the sky, which was understandable, since we had seen people use Wood Release before.
The question is, why are non- Uchiha ninjas also able to activate Susanoo around cutting people down?
Has the world gone mad?!
Faced with a power beyond comprehension, the Sunagakure army suffered its most devastating defeat in history.
The ninja army of nearly 10,000 was broken up by the Konoha Genin, suffering countless casualties and losing the advantage of being a large army.
It was a complete rout.
Seeing this, Uchiha Izuna showed no mercy, and his army marched deep into the heart of the Land of Wind, determined to make the enemy pay a heavy price.
In the fourteenth year of Konoha, Sunagakure, finally unable to resist, ignored the dissatisfaction of the Ninja Sect envoy and declared defeat in this foreign war.
In this battle, Sunagakure lost over 7,000 ninjas, with countless more wounded, resulting in an even greater economic deficit.
The only saving Keiki was that they finally understood the secret to Konoha's strength.
That thing called Scientific Ninja Tools was indeed a groundbreaking insight.
In comparison, the craftsmanship of Puppet Technique is utterly crude, almost like chewing wax, so rough that it's almost unbearable to look at.
Defeat was certainly painful, but Sunagakure's mind was entirely focused on how to deal with the Scientific Ninja Tools.
If we could crack the secret, wouldn't we be able to make up for today's losses?
Therefore, Sunagakure began to gather research talents from all sides to conduct anatomical research on Scientific Ninja Tools.
Unfortunately, faced with scientific research achievements that were decades ahead of the Shinobi World, they were like a group of primitive people facing a mobile phone; they couldn't even understand the technology, let alone replicate it.
Blindly pursuing something could even have more negative consequences.
On the other hand, the situation in Kumogakure was basically similar.
Miniature Ninjutsu Scrolls were initially supplied to the Uchiha on the battlefield, and only began to be supplied on a large scale to Tobirama Senju in the north after the complete end of the Land of Wind campaign.
Little Six complained about this, feeling that the village's favoritism was too obvious.
But there was nothing he could do; Yayoi Hyuga was clearly Kyosuke's person and wouldn't get too close to Senju.
We're only offering this to you because we're fellow ninjas from the same village.
"Damn it, even in death he's still causing me trouble." Frustrated, Little Six could only vent his anger on Raikage.
With the supply of Ninjutsu Scrolls, Konoha's Northern Army swept away its defeat and began a fierce offensive against the enemy.
Finally, the Kumogakure realized that the Konoha Genin with.
It's now widely known Chunin the Shinobi World that if you encounter Konoha, don't be afraid; just bravely confront them head-on.
Don't be afraid when you encounter Jonin. If you can run, run. If you can't run, try your best to maneuver. It may not be a sure way to die.
However, when you encounter Konoha Genin, especially the kind who rushes towards you excitedly, in short, run as fast as you can.
At first, the Raikage dismissed it, thinking that people were exaggerating. But when he was punched away by the Wood Golem puppet, he finally accepted the cruel reality.
I, the mighty Raikage, was actually injured by a mere brat from the Senju Hands clan?!
Beneath the angry exterior lies a fear that is difficult for others to perceive.
With such technological power, who in the world can rival Konoha?
Despite losing the protection of the Three Gods, Konoha did not decline; on the contrary, it became even stronger.
February, the fourteenth year of Konoha.
The Kumogakure signed another humiliating compensation agreement; they lost again, and this time the defeat was even more complete.
In April of the same year, Kirigakure announced its surrender and paid a large sum of resources to the Land of Whirlpools as reparations.
Thus, the First Shinobi World War, which lasted for two years, came to an end.
Konoha fought alone against the three Hidden Villages and achieved a truly glorious victory.
Since then, the Ninja Sect Clan has kept a much lower profile, and has repeatedly approached the Konoha High Command in an attempt to persuade them to accept their ideals.
Needless to say, all the fools who dared to cause trouble were driven away by Yuto.
In the fifteenth year of Konoha, Uchiha Yuto turned twenty, and his basic strength officially entered the ranks of the Super Kage. In his normal state, he was comparable to Madara and Hashirama in the late Warring States period of the original Warring States Period.
If one activates Dojutsu, the specific increase in strength will depend on the opponent's skill level.
Hashirama, and when Yuto was operating his Dojutsu at full power, he was able to possess Six Paths Level combat strength for a short period of time.
"As expected of Kyosuke's son, he's much better than my kid."
"Konoha can be safely entrusted to your hands."
August, the fifteenth year of Konoha.
A heartbreaking message spread throughout Konoha...
Hashirama Senju is critically ill.
