The Village Hidden in the Stone

Uchiha Takeyasu calculated for himself which strong individuals he could single-handedly defeat, ranging from level 81 to 100.

Minamoto Kaori, Uchiha Naori, and Minako Uzumaki are all pregnant.

Only Uchiha Hikari and Mito Uzumaki remained.

Those below the Strong Kage Super Kage Level are generally not qualified to challenge Super Kage or Transcendent beings; trying to force their way in will undoubtedly result in heavy casualties.

"... It seems that our own combat strength is still a very, very long way from conquering the dimensional plane."

This time, it was a weakened Great Tomb that was being traversed. If it were to encounter an invasion from another dimension, it would probably be in dire straits, and might even face the danger of national extinction.

"It's time to put our military formation to the test. We've been building up our strength for so long without encountering a powerful True Dragon Lord. Using the Great Tomb as a training ground wouldn't be bad."

The idea of integrating Chakra into the body of the commander-in-chief through the Yachihoko Seal to unleash a military formation Ninjutsu was something that had been planned for a long time, and they had trained on it extensively.

"Perhaps we need to speed up the harvesting process, but I wonder if Bone King can serve as a whetstone for this."

Uchiha Wu'an pondered for a moment. Based on Ainz Ooal Gown's cautious and guild-centric personality in the original story, as well as the NPCs' unwavering loyalty to Ainz Ooal Gown, as long as Ainz Ooal Gown was dealt with, the remaining NPCs would be the best henchmen and subordinates to manage the force.

Demons, insects, the undead, and elves are all long-lived alien races, capable of working for hundreds or even thousands of years.

Furthermore, the Great Tomb can automatically spawn undead, and coupled with the Skeleton Archmage's talent skill [Summon Undead], it's definitely a source of Ascension Points.

(This guy, Momonga, carries World Item with him and possesses powerful mental resistance, making it impossible to control him using ordinary methods.)

Thinking of this, Uchiha Takeyasu turned his gaze to the map inside the room. To the south of the Re-Estize Kingdom, the Slane Theocracy, which was fighting against Iwagakure and possessed the world-class mind control item [Beauty That Overwhelms Nations], had recently caused quite a stir.

At the front-line garrison of Iwagakure, the Fifth Tsuchikage, Han, sat solemnly inside the Ninja Army's main tent. His tall and sturdy body gave off a sense of solidity and reassurance, like a mountain range.

The Combat Ninja inside the tent felt much less anxious upon seeing Han's tall and upright figure.

This was only natural, and in one fell swoop, the decadent Iwagakure was brought back to its status as a great ninja village. All the ninjas of Iwagakure held Han in high esteem.

"Amegakure, which was fighting against the Empire, encountered the Empire's guardian deity, Frueda, and we also ran into a formidable enemy."

Han looked at the staff members sitting to the side and gestured for them to recount the recent battle reports.

"The Slane Theocracy is the Strongest Human, possessing the Six Color Scripture Forces. The Sunlight Scripture and the Fire Extinguishing Scripture have been completely annihilated by us. The Wind Flower Scripture and the Water Clarity Scripture, which mainly conduct espionage activities, have been crippled by us. The Earth Dust Scripture, which focuses on defense and holding its ground, is currently holding its line of defense with cities as its outposts."

The staff officer's voice became serious as he spoke.

"The Black Scripture, the smallest but strongest in terms of numbers, consists of thirteen people, most of whom are Jonin or Elite Jonin. We have confirmed that two of them possess the strength of Kage Level individual in this world."

"The strongest among them is the first-ranked member of the Black Scripture, who is capable of being an enemy of the Lord Tsuchikage. He has awakened the Divine Bloodline and is known as the captain with the codename Black Scripture!"

(As enemies?)

Han couldn't help but recall the battle from before—even though he had summoned the Five-Tails Kokuō, and the two of them joined forces against the Black Scripture, the fact that the Black Scripture still had reserves of strength showed that its power was approaching Super Kage of a Shadow Realm expert.

(However, until one truly enters that field, who lives and who dies remains unknown.)

After Han had thought it over, the ninja from the staff continued.

"To prevent the enemy from overwhelming us with numbers, under the command of Lord Tsuchikage, our Iwagakure has been advancing cautiously, step by step pushing the battle line into the heart of the Slane Theocracy, making the Black Scripture a thorn in our side."

"And that's why the Black Scripture revealed a trump card: a powerful Magic Item with mind control capabilities— the Beauty That Overwhelms Nations!"

The strategist's words immediately froze the atmosphere in the tent. Not long ago, a Ninja Army was betrayed by his subordinates, and nearly a hundred of his troops were either killed or imprisoned by the Black Scripture.

The Ninja Army, who was also subsequently captured, returned to the Ninja Army's base and tricked another Ninja Army unit into leaving. However, someone noticed that something was amiss.

After being captured by the group and subjected to interrogation, the information obtained made all the high-ranking members of the Ninja Army feel uneasy.

If this control ability, which is even stronger than the Sharingan the Uchiha, is not dealt with, the collapse of Iwagakure is to be expected.

This was arguably the deadliest battle in the history of Iwagakure.

"There's no need to panic excessively about her Beauty That Overwhelms Nations power."

The strategist analyzed, "Powerful Magic Item inevitably come with strong limitations on their use. If they could be used anytime, anywhere, the Mana Continent would have long been dominated by humans, not Paradise for other races."

"The biggest challenge is dealing with the controlled ninjas; so far, we still don't know how to break free from the control."

The staff officer's words drew nods of agreement from everyone. Han then asked, "What countermeasures does the staff have in mind?"

"Due to insufficient intelligence, the staff has drawn on the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan and Genjutsu from the Ninja World, and can offer one suggestion."

The staff officer said in a deep voice, "Use our Shadow Clone Jutsu to probe the enemy's intelligence."

"Through the controlled ninja's memories, it was learned that when the Beauty That Overwhelms Nations was unleashed, a winding golden dragon would appear and attack his brain."

"We can roughly determine that the opponent needs a tangible target to exert control, but whether this control will be synchronized with the main body through the Shadow Clone is still unknown."

The ninja advisor lowered his head and fell silent; everyone understood what he meant.

At this point, a ninja with a spirit of sacrifice is needed to conduct the experiment, but this can only be addressed by having everyone volunteer, or by having the Tsuchikage designate one.

After a silence of three or four seconds, someone stepped forward.

Han gave the other person a deep look, but said nothing more. The Will of Stone is a spirit put into practice, not a lofty Will of Fire.

Whether this ninja succeeded or not, he left a mark on Han's heart.

He survived and was promoted to a higher rank.

If someone is unfortunately killed in battle, their relatives and family members will be treated well in Iwagakure.

Konoha's generous system for treating the families of fallen soldiers has been imitated by all the ninja villages in the Ninja World, giving Combat Ninja no longer any worries about their families' well-being.
