" Setsuna Shana is right! We need to re-examine Lord Yan's research materials; perhaps we can find some clues there."
" The Acting Hokage's side is definitely investigating this matter as well. When they share information, they're sure to find some clues."
After the meeting, the Uchiha clan members went about their individual tasks.
Meanwhile, in Konoha, Senju Tobirama, after reviewing a large number of files, finally discovered some clues.
Upon returning to the temporary camp, he immediately summoned Might Guy.
A short while later, Might Guy rushed over.
His signature green bodysuit stood out conspicuously in the tent, and his eyes revealed both doubt and concern.
" Lord Tobirama, you wanted to see me?"
Might Guy Senju Tobirama Might Guy with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"Kai, do you remember when Yan arranged a long mission for you back then?"
Might Guy scratched his head, trying hard to remember, when suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Oh, I remember now, a lot did happen back then."
Senju Tobirama pressed on, "Tell me in detail, didn't you find something in Takigakure that was stolen by the Akatsuki Organization?"
Might Guy nodded and began to recount that experience.
"At that time, after I accepted the mission and arrived in the Land of Waterfalls..."
"I noticed a large number of ninjas gathered at the entrance of Takigakure, from the Land of Rain, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Iron. I assumed it was related to a mission, so I also gathered a lot of Konoha Ninja."
"In the end, Konoha won, and we also unexpectedly discovered a mysterious Crystal Ball at the Sacred Tree in Takigakure."
"At the time, I felt that this was definitely not an ordinary thing, so I wanted to bring it back to Konoha."
Upon hearing this, Senju Tobirama's gaze became even more focused, and he quickly asked.
Where is the Crystal Ball now?
At this moment, Might Guy's face showed a look of frustration.
"Alas, the Konoha Ninja were attacked by Akatsuki Organization members on their way back."
"Several squads of ninjas are dead, and they also stole the Crystal Ball and some of the data."
Senju Tobirama's expression grew increasingly grim; he had already made up his mind.
This Crystal Ball is undoubtedly closely related to Nagato's rapid improvement in strength.
The clues have now gone cold at a crucial moment, leaving him feeling quite troubled.
"Kai, go and get some rest. This matter is very important, and we may need your help later."
Might Guy nodded and turned to leave the tent.
Standing alone in his tent, Senju Tobirama realized he had to speed up the investigation.
We must not only thoroughly study the materials left by Yan, but also closely monitor the movements of Kirigakure and the Land of Rain.
Meanwhile, in the Uchiha Clan Compound, Fugaku led his clansmen in working day and night to sort through the research data on Yan.
They discovered that before Yan disappeared, he had explored some ancient ruins and mysterious forces in depth, and some of the records mentioned mysterious objects similar to Crystal Ball.
The most important thing is that Yan was missing for three years at the beginning, and when he returned, he brought back several Stone Pillars.
They have never given up studying these Stone Pillars.
They discovered that it contained the power of time, but they were unable to utilize it in any way.
It can only be put on hold for now.
Even now, these Stone Pillars are still in the underground laboratory of the Uchiha Special Zone.
Thinking of this, Fugaku frowned and passed the information to Senju Tobirama.
Please ask him to go and take a look.
Given the characteristics of those Stone Pillars, even if their origins cannot be found, their discovery can be used as a foundational resource of Konoha.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The entire Ninja World remained shrouded in a tense atmosphere.
In this short period of time, Konoha and the Uchiha Clan actively prepared for war while accelerating their research into the mysterious power, but progress remained slow.
Just then, the ninja in charge of reconnaissance suddenly sounded an alarm.
" The Masked Man is leading the Kirigakure Ninja army in another attack! They are numerous and menacing, rapidly approaching the Land of Rice Fields!"
Upon hearing the news, Uchiha Fugaku's expression instantly turned extremely serious.
Immediately summon all ninjas and rush to the battlefield.
On the battlefield, Obito stood at the forefront of the Kirigakure Ninja army.
His distinctive mask gleamed coldly in the sunlight, exuding a chilling aura.
The Kirigakure Ninja beside him all had cold expressions and bloodthirsty glints in their eyes, clearly indicating that they were not here with good intentions.
Uchiha Fugaku, along with Tekka and the Yashiro Hokage, stood side by side, with the Uchiha Allied Shinobi Forces standing ready behind them.
"Given Kirigakure's size, it would be difficult enough to take over the Land of Lightning, yet now it wants to launch an attack on us. Has it gone mad?" Fugaku pondered to himself.
Before anyone could speak, Obito launched the first attack.
His hands Hand Seals, and powerful chakra gathered in them.
In an instant, a massive black energy blade hurtled toward the Allied Shinobi Forces, tearing black rifts through the space in its wake.
Upon seeing this, the Uchiha Ninja Army quickly changed formation.
Several towering Susanoo instantly rose from the ground, their massive bodies standing like steel fortresses in front of the Allied Shinobi Forces, firmly blocking the attack of the black energy blades.
The powerful impact caused the surrounding ground to tremble.
Tekka then formed hand Hand Seals and shouted loudly.
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!
A massive burst of flame erupted from its mouth, sweeping towards the army of Kirigakure Ninja like a raging fire wave.
The Yashiro activated their Sharingan and used genjutsu to try and disrupt the Kirigakure Ninja ' actions.
Obito, Obito sneered, "A mere trick!"
A powerful force erupted from him, instantly dispelling Yashiro's illusion.
Immediately afterwards, his figure flashed and he vanished from the spot in an instant.
The next moment, Obito appeared behind the Uchiha Allied Shinobi Forces, holding a black Kunai in his hand, and fiercely stabbed at an Uchiha ninja.
The Uchiha ninja sensed danger and tried to evade it.
But Obito's speed was too fast, Kunai pierced his body in an instant.
Fugaku roared angrily, manipulating Susanoo turn around and slash fiercely at Obito.
Obito, however, remained calm and composed, his body becoming intangible as he easily dodged the attack.
At this moment, the Kirigakure Ninja also launched their attacks.
Various Water Release Ninjutsu surged towards the Uchiha Allied Shinobi Forces like a raging wave, while some ninjas threw Shuriken, Kunai, and other hidden weapons.
In an instant, hidden weapons crisscrossed, and light and shadow intertwined.
The Uchiha Allied Shinobi Forces, however, remained fearless, working closely together to counter the enemy's attacks.
Some ninjas awaken their Sharingan, using their keen perception and superhuman reaction speed to precisely evade enemy attacks.
Some ninjas continued to control Susanoo, engaging in fierce battles against the large-scale Water Release Ninjutsu of the Kirigakure Ninja.
The enormous weapon could shatter Water Release Ninjutsu with each swing, sending water splashing everywhere.
On the battlefield, smoke filled the air and blood splattered everywhere; the battle instantly reached a fever pitch.
