The Strength of Konoha's Corps
The strongest force Qingcheng brought was the Lightning Armor Corps. Although this team only had fifty-two people, each of them had cultivated Lightning Armor, and most of them had reached A+ or S-rank Mission power.
The strongest is Captain Kurofuji Kumo-ma, who is currently at the Peak Kage Level. He not only possesses the Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, but also masters Hell Stab and Four-Finger Nukite Spear Technique. His body has been trained to be as powerful as Tailed Beast; ordinary ninjutsu can't harm his flesh at all. His speed is comparable to the Fourth Raikage, and he is Raikage with a Sage Body.
The vice-captain of the Lightning Armor Corps, Inuyasha Jiaokun, also awakened the Basic Sage Body with Qingcheng's help, thus possessing the chakra level of Mid-level Kage Chakra. Furthermore, he awakened the Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai. Jiao Kun's Magnet Release controls the Iron Sand on the ground, similar to the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release, both using black Iron Sand.
Furthermore, Jiao Kun had mastered the Lightning Armor to the level of S-rank Ninjutsu, capable of cleaving a mountain in two with Jiao Kun bare hands. His Chakra reserves were also incredibly high, making his Magnet Release comparable in power to that of the Third Kazekage. The Magnet Release he used controlled magnetic Iron Sand to form various weapons or large-scale sand spikes to attack enemies from the ground.
Inuyasha Jiaokun also knows Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock Technique and Added-Weight Rock Technique. These two ninjutsu allow him to lighten Iron Sand, increasing its attack speed, and to heavien Iron Sand Iron Sand, increasing their attack power. Jiao Kun's flight mode involves using wings made of black Iron Sand to fly high in the sky.
The members of the Police Force, including those of the First Squad, had also trained in the Lightning Armor. Even the battalion commander, Kameida Meikai, had mastered the Lightning Armor to the power of an A+ rank ninjutsu. He also knew Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock Technique, his Chakra had reached the Low-level Kage, and he had mastered several S-rank Ninjutsu. He was currently flying with Shouhon Yihan.
Over the years, the members of the First Police Force have also been training in the Lightning Armor in Lightning Gorge. The strength of all the members is not much different from that of the Lightning Armor Corps; they are basically all at the Quasi-Kage Level.
There are also teams of Anbu Ninja. These Anbu Ninja don't have names, only code names. Unless they reach the rank of officer, they can use their own names.
The vice-commander of the Anbu is named Raimon, who wears a lion's head mask. He is a ninja proficient in Lightning Armor and also possesses the Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, giving him the strength of Low-level Kage. He received a high-quality Uchiha Vaccine and has achieved an epic level of improvement over the years, training in the Lightning Gorge year-round.
These Anbu Ninja, a total of three thousand, were all Elite Jonin- level ninjas, and some of their captains were already at the Quasi-Kage Level. These Anbu Ninja flew behind Senju Taoyuan.
The Fat Water Squad, led by Kogane Sōsuke Hayakumo Sōma, was led by Kouwa Kusuke as vice-captain. Kusuke was now a valuable asset to Hayakumo Sōma, possessing not only Ink Release Ninjutsu but also three S-rank Ninjutsu, as well as Kakashi's Purple Electricity Ninjutsu. Two years prior, he had also mastered Storm Release Kekkei Genkai. Having received a high-quality Uchiha Vaccine, he was now Kage Level, capable of using various ninjutsu, making him a rare talent in Konoha.
The Fat Water Squad mobilized over two thousand people in total. Hayakumo Sōma didn't bring the teams that regularly engaged in shady dealings outside the village; he only brought Elite Jonin- level members. Most of the members were at least Elite Jonin.
Meanwhile, Konoha's Technology Department had already begun mass production of the second-generation Uchiha Vaccine two years ago. They could produce thirteen doses daily, mainly using inferior fused cells that multiplied very slowly. They also needed to use a neutralizing agent to remove the corrosive properties of the cells before they could be safely used.
The power of Konoha's Technology Department began to emerge two years ago. These large-scale research projects consume 9.5 billion yen of Konoha's assets every year.
When Tendou Bunsai arrived at the Hokage Building with the documents for approval, his hands were trembling, and he said in a panic, "Hokage -sama, this money is all funding. Our Technology Department has already made cuts and reductions, but we still need so much money. Part of it is for research, another part is for replacing equipment, another part is for materials, and another part is for the salaries of those PhDs in science and technology."
Looking at the panicked Wencai, Qingcheng slammed his hand on the table and said seriously, "I, Uchiha Qingcheng, will invest in this project. Mass-produce those Second-Generation Uchiha Enhancement Vaccine for me, prioritizing the Konoha Anbu Ninja and Police Force personnel, then the Fat Water Squad, and those special ninja units. The rest of the Uchiha Enhancement Vaccine are all mine."
Therefore, with such a high level of investment in the game, a large number of Konoha Ninja rapidly increased their strength.
Konoha also gained a lot of extra income, which enabled them to cover such expenses. Not only the Technology Department, but also the Ministry of Agriculture and every other department were money-draining entities; there wasn't a single one that saved money."
Every year, the bonuses and salaries of Konoha Ninja cost billions of Silver Coin. Adding in miscellaneous expenses, the total annual cost exceeds 20 billion Ryo.
At this time, Konoha still had over 70 billion Silver Coin in its coffers. If the Military Strengthening Plan were implemented, Qingcheng estimated that even the Land of Fire would have to foot the bill for Konoha. Therefore, launching a direct war against Amegakure to kill or cripple this rice-carrying guy would benefit Konoha in the future. The longer the war dragged on, the better for Konoha."
Qingcheng's goal this time is, firstly, to kill Uzumaki Nagato and seize Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan, which would be ideal. Even if he doesn't kill Nagato, crippling him would still affect Uchiha Obito's Eye of the Moon Plan.
The second point is to capture Hidan. Qingcheng plans to bring this immortal person into his own hands, first cutting off his limbs, then using illusion to control him, so that Hidan can use the One's Own Life Reincarnation Technique to restore the lives of those Impure World Reincarnation.
Qingcheng planned to use Danzo as a test subject. He would first use the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu to summon Danzo, then control Hidan to use the One's Own Life Reincarnation Technique Danzo Danzo's life. If the resurrection was successful, Danzo would gain the ability to feel pain and would be a new life.
Qingcheng's face lit up with a smile at the thought, and he thought to himself, "Once Danzo is resurrected, I'll kill you again, and I'll kill you hard. I'll make you die several times a day."
