This match was put together by the Uchiha, since the opposing team wanted the Uchiha to take the lead.

Then there's no need for me to set up a platform for the Uchiha!

Seeing that none of the four people in the room were willing to speak first, and instead avoided the topic in this way.

Uchiha Motohisa couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Old fox!"

If no one responds, what am I supposed to say next?

Why must we leave all the responsibility of taking Uchiha?

A moment of silence fell over the room!

Until five minutes later.

It's clear these four are determined to be cowards.

Uchiha Motohisa sighed inwardly, deciding to start the conversation himself.

After all, this was a gathering of people from the Uchiha, and if this awkward silence continues...

Then there's no point in holding the rally.

And it will leave these guys with the impression that the Uchiha are afraid of it!

However, if you all cower in your shell, I won't let you have it easy either.

So, while the others were drinking water...

He cleared his throat and cut to the chase. "Both Senju and Sarutobi should be restricted!"

"Our Five Clans joined forces to negotiate with them, forcing them to take action now, lest their numbers become too great and pose a threat to us."

Do you agree?

"Cough cough!"

"Pfft!"

Uchiha Motohisa's words elicited different reactions from the four clan leaders.

They're as fast as Hyūga and Nara.

They immediately swallowed the water in their mouths when Uchiha Motohisa coughed lightly.

So after hearing that question...

Their faces twitched slightly because of the Uchiha's directness and decisiveness!

But Akimichi and the Yamanaka Clan Head were not so lucky.

They were a step too slow.

So when they heard something too blunt, one couldn't help but spit it out, while the other choked and coughed repeatedly!

Uchiha Motohisa observed the reactions of the four.

After he finished speaking, he looked at the two people who had made a sound.

Uchiha Motohisa asked with a puzzled look, " Akimichi Clan Head and Yamanaka Clan Head, do you two have different opinions?"

"Their current manpower will pose a significant threat to us in a few years!"

"Aren't you willing to work together to restrain both sides?"

Hearing this, the two shook their heads, but that didn't work either.

Because that's exactly why they've come today!

But nod?

Then... besides the Uchiha, wouldn't the other two clans just naturally step forward?

This is quite different from the original plan!

Suddenly, the coughing that had just stopped started again.

Both the Akimichi Clan Head and the Yamanaka Clan Head simultaneously covered their mouths with their hands, pretending that they were unable to speak!

Realizing the predicament of his two friends, the Nara Clan Head originally planned to have the Uchiha alone at the forefront to draw their hatred!

But that's no longer realistic.

So he put down his cup and changed the subject with a smile, saying, "Clan Chief Motohisa, our families have no intention of getting involved in those two matters."

First, he denied the Uchiha's bluntness.

He changed the subject abruptly, adding before the Uchiha Clan Head could speak, "However, their actions were indeed a bit too drastic!"

"If things continue like this, it could easily alert the other four kingdoms. If they do the same, then it would be a good outcome."

"But that's impossible, because the economic conditions of the four countries are very different from ours, so they will most likely form an alliance."

"In that case, Konoha will be surrounded on all sides!"

"Therefore, we believe that for everyone's stability and for the long-term peace of the Shinobi World..."

"Both sides should probably tone down their actions a bit!"

"At the very least, we can't let Konoha become the one besieged by the four nations!"

His convoluted and circuitous statement took a lot of his mental energy.

But there's no other way; they were ultimately inclined to stay out of it.

Although the Uchiha Clan Head was right, that was their thought and their purpose for coming today.

But I can't agree to something so blunt.

The Uchiha Clan, with its vast resources and influence, could withstand the pressure, and even after forming an alliance with Sarutobi, they dared to play the role of spectators.

But the small Ino-Shika-Cho clan and family couldn't withstand the wrath of those two sides!

Wouldn't it be better to resolve this in a way that doesn't upset either party?

Even if there is unhappiness, the remaining unhappiness will not be much after being shared among the Five Clans!

If they really stand their ground like the Uchiha, then both sides will agree.

They must hate those tribes to the core!

They don't want to wait until the outcome is decided, then form an alliance again to fight the victor!

Hearing the words of the Nara Clan Head, the Hyūga Clan Head suppressed a smile.

While inwardly praising the other party's shamelessness, he calmly said, "Yes, the peace in the Shinobi World today is hard-won."

"We must all do our best to protect it!"

After saying that, he shut his mouth again and watched the show.

Anyway, he definitely won't step forward on the Uchiha's platform today!

Seeing that Nara had gone through such a long and complicated process to resolve his straightforward issue and then offered a new explanation...

Having achieved his goal of dragging several clans into the mess, Uchiha Motohisa agreed, saying, "Alright, then let's do as the Nara Clan Head says."

" The Uchiha are also a peace-loving clan."

" Nara Clan Head, when do you suggest we go together to talk to those two families?"

He dragged several ethnic groups into the mess, not because he was afraid.

Rather, he had seen a lot of things, including File left by many Clan!

He discovered that the Uchiha already had many enemies and a very poor reputation.

Is it simply because of their relative strength that the Uchiha always have to start?

And all the hatred is directed at the Uchiha, Fruit everyone else gets a share of the spoils of victory?

Sometimes, the Uchiha wouldn't even get to eat the Devil Fruit?

If he were an elder, he would have fallen for their trap and become the first to confront Senju and Sarutobi!

But he is not an elder.

He is the head of the Uchiha Clan.

He should do fewer of those mindless things!

Otherwise, unless the Uchiha never reveals any weakness for their entire lives!

Otherwise, a reckoning will begin.

No one would be willing to lend a hand to the Uchiha!

Upon hearing the question in the middle, the Nara Clan Head couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He discovered that this Uchiha Clan Head was different from the previous ones!

This excellent thug has finally gotten his brains...

He knew there was no escaping it; after all, he had already started trying to get his teammates involved.

Therefore, the Nara Clan Head did not avoid the issue but directly offered his advice. "This matter should be handled quickly rather than delayed, as the Senju's actions are quite significant."

"Plus, the the Hokage and his people's actions will easily alert those around them!"

"So, how about we visit both sides together tomorrow?"

Should this raise an alarm?

If these four countries hadn't taken action earlier, they wouldn't be four countries at all.

Does this alertness still need to be raised?

He silently grumbled to himself, but Uchiha Motohisa maintained his previous expression and said, "Alright, let's go together tomorrow!"

"But Nara Clan Head, how do you suggest we get both sides to back down?"

"You know, this is hard to control!"

Although Elder Uchiha Yukito has already provided a solution.

But this method is one that people hate.

He also wanted to see if Nara, known for his intellect, had a better solution!

Upon hearing this, the Nara Clan Head, who had his hair Furin, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

This Uchiha Clan Head really knows how to use someone to their fullest potential!

You need to have your own reasons, and you need to set your own timeframe. Why would you want to ruin your own life with this method?

I glanced at Hinata across from me, who was quietly sipping his tea, keeping a low Hyūga!

After thinking about it, I realize I can't afford to offend them!

So he still offered his suggestion. "It's said that the Valley of the End has very little vegetation around it because of the great battle that year."

"If we can handle this, it would be a way to restore the environment around Konoha!"

Upon hearing this, the Hyūga Clan Head paused, his hand holding the teacup still.

He silently cursed the other party's ruthlessness!

Then, he continued drinking tea and catching fish!

Uchiha Motohisa heard this method, which was similar to that of his elder.

After thinking for a moment, he pretended to understand Nara's meaning and said, "Alright, let's do as Nara Clan Head suggests!"

"This will also help them train some people!"

The specifics of the matter have been determined.

The group then began to chat idly.

After confirming the specific time and place during casual conversation.

Everyone signed their names on both Calling Card.

Then, reluctantly, they bid farewell and left the Uchiha Clan Compound!

After seeing off these clan leaders...

He gently patted the little head that had always been by his side.

Uchiha Motohisa looked out over the clan's territory and said with a smile, " Fugaku, do you understand now?"

I don't quite understand!

Thinking about what he had heard these people say in the council chamber, Uchiha Fugaku directly expressed his feelings.

He could understand the content.

He just didn't quite understand why his father's attitude was like that!

Hearing this, Uchiha Motohisa smiled, took his son's hand, and walked towards the house, saying, " Fugaku, you can take a look at the File on the biggest shelf in my study when you have time."

"We're always being used as pawns by others. In the past, that wouldn't have mattered much!"

"But times have changed. The Warring States period is over, and our Clan are not as powerful as they used to be!"

"So we must care about the things our ancestors didn't care about!"

"We don't need to be as weak as Nara; our Clan still has considerable strength."

"But we can't keep being used as pawns without ever getting anything in return."

"Remember this from now on: you have to reap what you sow!"

"If no one is willing to make the effort, then we'll just have to put up with it."

"Anyway, we're big enough, so we're not as afraid as they are!"

Do you understand?

He didn't know how much his son could understand.

But he's willing to teach as much as he can whenever he has the chance!

Because, as he said, the Clan is not as powerful as it used to be.

If the Mangekyō doesn't have a single member, then the Clan needs to change its mindset.

His son was destined to become the head of the Uchiha.

So try to teach them from a young age, so they don't end up like you, getting hurt before they even realize what pain feels like!

He listened to what his father was saying, even though he didn't quite understand some of it yet.

But Uchiha Fugaku was very sensible and remembered everything.

Especially that bookshelf!

If my father specifically instructed me to do so, then it must have some value!

The next day.

The sun moves to the southeast, and the shadow points to the northwest.

Inside the Clan Leader's Office of the Senju Clan Compound Konoha's Government Affairs Hall.

A woman in her early twenties, dressed in a white kimono with her hair in a bun and wearing a crown-like ornament, and a woman in her early forties, dressed in Senju Beige clan costume with her black hair tied up, were kneeling opposite each other on the tatami mats, sipping the most precious tea in the Shinobi World.

"These people still can't sit still!" Mito Uzumaki asked with certainty.

"Heh~!" With a light laugh, Senju Toka pushed the Calling Card that had been delivered that morning across the table and said with a smile, "The news from the Land of Bears has arrived."

"How could they possibly sit still!"

Unfold the Calling Card and look at the five seals at the bottom that bear the clan emblem.

Mito Uzumaki gently shook her head, and the talismans on both sides swayed gently in response.

After carefully examining the contents above, she closed the book and said, " Nara's handiwork... it seems the current Uchiha Clan Head isn't stupid!"

But as soon as I saw the words "peace" and other high-sounding phrases written inside, I was immediately struck by their meaning.

She already knew who would reveal these things!

Each Clan has its own Clan.

The clan leader, in particular, is most prone to getting caught up in tradition!

Nara has an exceptionally sharp mind.

The Uchiha is known for its stubbornness and arrogance.

The meeting of these clans was held on Uchiha Clan Compound.

But the contents are made using a non-stick pan, like those in Nara!

These small details prove that the current Uchiha leader is not stupid.

Based on past experience and understanding of the Uchiha.

Uchiha took the lead, how could we let someone else make the decision?

Even with something as simple as a Calling Card, they'll handle it according to their own habits.

As for the outcome, most of the time small things just get bigger, and big things have to be done before we can talk about them!

Hearing what the other person said, he thought of the records about the Uchiha within his own clan.

Senju Toka chuckled softly, "That's normal. With so many people in the clan, it's normal for someone to have an unconventional talent."

"Moreover, the Uchiha is currently in a predicament where they don't even have a pair of Mangekyō. What if another brainless one joins them?"

"I'm afraid our clan's extinction isn't far off!"

He nodded in agreement with what the other person said.

But then Mito Uzumaki shook her head and said, "This is not a good thing. Obsession is the source of the Uchiha's power."

"A clan leader who is too clever but lacks strength will find himself in a situation where he is surrounded by wolves."

"Besides, the Uchiha isn't so easily wiped out!"

"Those cursed eyes are very interesting!"

She has a deep understanding of the Uchiha.

Besides the Clan information needed to understand the conflicts during the Warring States period.

Through the relationship Hashirama, Tobirama later conducted research on the Uchiha.

Both of these experiences allowed her to learn many of the Uchiha's secrets!

For example, the source of the Uchiha's power.

The talent of this race is very interesting; strictly speaking, there are no useless people in this race!

Those arrogant and domineering Uchiha awakened their first or second Tomoe early on were geniuses.

But those who are mediocre at everything, can't even open their eyes, and don't have the arrogance of the Uchiha, and are very honest and kind, are also geniuses!

Because their power comes from the spiritual realm.

Although there's no such thing as turning evil and becoming three times stronger in the Shinobi World, for the Uchiha, the more honest and kind a person is, the more terrifying they can be when they unleash their fury!

She, who could instantly open Mangekyō, didn't even know if she had one.

But when she instantly activated her Mitsudomoe, she heard Madara mention that there were many examples of this!

After thinking for a moment, Mito Uzumaki rummaged through her sleeve and took out a notebook, handing it over and saying, "This contains some of Tobirama's research; you can take a look when you have time."

"That clan is not to be underestimated. Once you understand this, you can plan your actions accordingly in the future!"

I can't give you what Madara Uchiha said.

Because these things are told based on trust.

Although her husband's death was related to this.

But it's hard to say what will happen between those two!

However, with Tobirama's notes, one can gain some understanding of that clan.

It's good to entrust it to the Clan so that they can be used in crucial moments!

He took the old leather notebook.

Senju Toka casually placed it into her Ninja Tool Pouch.

Since those guys haven't become enemies yet, we can postpone our observation and understanding!

After putting it away, she looked at the redhead opposite her and asked, "Still no news from the Uzumaki?"

Nodding, Mito Uzumaki sighed softly, "There isn't a perfect one, but there are two that we can use."

"However, you also know the consequences of installing this thing."

"I can manage for the next few years, so let's wait and see!"

Although no names were mentioned, it still recognized who was being referred to.

So, bound by a dozen or so golden chains, it quickly shouted, "Since the consequences are so serious, you don't have to carry me!"

"Let's make a deal, old woman!"

"Old woman... Waaah...!"

After finally managing to get her to open her mouth by being obedient for a while, she's been tied up again?

Do you know how difficult this is for a naturally active animal?

You're not even listening to the details of the transaction?

A deal that benefits everyone!

Having been bound to this sphere for decades, it was once again enraged by Mito's direct and forceful approach.

So it used all its strength to resist.

Nine tails waving, limbs straining, head held high!

After all this turmoil, it finally gained a tiny bit of living space, something it had worked so hard to achieve over decades.

This has been completely locked down by Mito Uzumaki once again!

It instantly returned to the way it was when it was first installed.

Unable to break free, it grew increasingly agitated, and then the chains on its body tightened.

It gradually regained its senses!

Upon seeing its current appearance, the red fox's wide eyes became lifeless!

He was listening to what the other person was saying, but he noticed a faint fluctuation of Chakra.

Senju Toka still noticed the other party's actions.

She frowned and suggested, "Why don't we contact the Uzumaki and have them send someone to help us add those seals we researched earlier?"

Chakra fluctuations inexplicably appeared emanating from the person opposite them.

It's obvious without even thinking which fox spirit is behind this!

She was unaware of the other party's specific situation, but still offered her opinion regarding the insurance period.

Shaking her head, Mito Uzumaki took a sip of the green tea in her cup and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I just taught that guy a lesson for his foul mouth."

"Don't worry, I know my situation!"

She has always been very aware of her physical condition.

There are also related arrangements for what follows!

Making this fox obedient within seven years shouldn't be a problem.

Although, as the other party said, sealing it could extend one's lifespan by several years.

But once it's sealed, it's not so easy to unseal.

Given the current situation of the Senju, they cannot afford to waste this fox.

If it's sealed, then she'll have a hard time summoning the fox's power!

Seeing that she refused, Senju Toka did not bring up the topic again.

She was somewhat aware of what the other side was thinking.

My nephew is relying on the other side to play his trump card.

She didn't know what to say!

As if sensing Toka's thoughts, Mito Uzumaki smiled silently and changed the subject, saying, "By the way, how do you plan to do this scene today?"

Upon hearing this question...

Knowing why they were asking, Senju Toka picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea into their cups while saying softly, "This matter itself aligns with our initial thoughts."

"However, the necessary attitude still needs to be shown!"

"Therefore, I intend to have the Sixth Elder receive me during today's visit."

"If several offers are reasonable, I'll agree!"

The plan for consumption was already confirmed at the last Clan Meeting.

However, people later realized that taking direct action wasn't very effective.

Perhaps we should let these neutral Clan act as a lubricant!

This way, Sarutobi's side won't think too much about it, and the drawn-out battle will be more to their liking.

Having learned about Toka's actions, Mito Uzumaki changed the subject and started talking to her about the nation-building efforts on the Front Line!

This is one of the main reasons she came back today.

There was nothing that could be done; although the daughter was annoying, she was still her daughter.

Now that they've made this request, she has no choice but to help!

I learned what the Miko was thinking.

After a moment's hesitation, Senju Toka finally agreed to the Miko's request.

However, certain restrictions were placed on personnel and techniques.

In other words, only those from the main lineage of the Daimyō can cultivate.

The remaining descendants who were subsequently enfeoffed would not be eligible for the relevant titles!

Every year, a group of children of meritorious individuals would also be brought from the Miko.

However, once these children arrive in the Shinobi World, they cannot return and are not allowed to teach their families related knowledge without permission.

She and Mito also clearly defined all the limitations and consequences involved!

As time went by.

In a restaurant, a meeting led by the Five Clans was also held on schedule.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, the heads of the Five Clans, and the six Sixth Elder of the Senju discussed and argued for more than two hours.

Ultimately, with the combined efforts of the Senju and the Five Clans leaders, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to reluctantly agree to fertilize the Valley of the End!

After the meeting.

Inside the top-floor office of that building, which resembled a rice cooker.

In stark contrast to the Senju Sixth Elder's mood Hiruzen Sarutobi sat on the sofa in the reception area with a dark expression.

Looking at my old friend, who usually had a gentle demeanor but whose face was ashen today.

Utatane Koharu quickly handed over a cup of tea and then asked, " Hiruzen, what exactly was discussed at the meeting held by the Five Clans today?"

After receiving the Calling Card in the morning, they looked at the words about peace and such.

The three agreed that this was because the various tribes were worried that the combined power of the two sides was too great.

We want to impose some restrictions on both parties.

At that time, they laughed and said that the idea of Five Clans was far-fetched.

Does imposing restrictions really mean they'll stop?

But seeing his old friend's expression, could it be that they really had come up with a solution?

I accepted the tea and heard my friend's question.

Hiruzen Sarutobi let out a long sigh, releasing the pent-up frustration that had been building up inside him for so long.

He looked at his two friends with a dark expression and said in a deep voice, "The restrictions offered by those clans are that we and the Senju go together to improve the environment of the Valley of the End!"

If this meeting had been held a few years later, he wouldn't have had to put up with this kind of treatment.

Unfortunately, these guys timed it too perfectly.

They made their move as the first group of people were about to emerge.

If we don't agree now, those other clans might side with the Senju.

Our side will only face annihilation.

Once they agreed, they no longer had the right to ignore the power of the Five Clans for a short period of time!

Upon hearing this, Utatane Koharu and Shimura Danzō taken aback, clearly not understanding what was meant at first.

environment?

After thinking about it carefully, I understood.

Upon Utatane Koharu's face darkened, just like her old friend across from her.

She frowned and cursed through gritted teeth, "These bastards, they're a bunch of damned scum."

"How could they even come up with such a vicious scheme?"

"How could those Nara Clan bastards be so heartless!"

When they saw the invitation card that morning, the three of them were wondering why the Uchiha had Nara write it.

According to Nara's custom, wouldn't they usually push out the Uchiha or Hyūga in this situation?

Now, considering the strategy, how could she not see that this all seemed to be a gathering of the Uchiha?

Was it actually Nara's doing all this behind the scenes?

I have no idea how they managed to persuade the Uchiha to gather the men they wanted!

But couldn't everyone see that it was Nara who was behind the Uchiha gathering?

Don't they realize that the Uchiha members' brains couldn't possibly come up with such a vicious plan?

Shimura Danzō, who shared similar thoughts, didn't resort to insults or anything like that.

But after his face darkened, he said coldly, "If they dare to scheme, then they must bear the consequences."

"I'll arrange for people to wipe out a bunch of those brats from Nara."

"They're conveniently located on the Land of Wind's side, making it easier for us to make our move!"

Yes, he doesn't like swearing as a way to vent.

He prefers to express his dissatisfaction through more direct means!

Upon hearing his old friend's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately raised his hand to stop Koharu, who was about to agree.

Then, staring intently at the man opposite him who actually knew how to fight, he said, "Don't act rashly; we don't have enough manpower right now."

" The Ino-Shika-Cho are all of the same ilk; now is not the time to deal with them."

"If you push them to the Senju side, then the chain reaction will..."

" The Hyūga and the smaller clans in the village will immediately take sides!"

Upon hearing this, Utatane Koharu clenched her fists immediately.

She now completely understood why Hiruzen's expression was so grim!

You should know that this old friend has always been someone who doesn't show his emotions.

After carefully considering the consequences of what the other person said, Shimura Danzō's already dark face darkened even further.

I acted rashly in my anger and didn't think things through carefully.

Upon Hiruzen the mention of Hiruzen, he immediately grasped the key point.

Yes, I really don't dare to make a move right now.

Because those guys might actually dare to turn around directly!

For a moment, the two fell silent upon hearing the message.

Hiruzen Sarutobi took this opportunity to carefully consider his next move.

The three remained silent for a long time.

Looking at her old friend deep in thought Utatane Koharu sighed and said, " Hiruzen, give me the details. I don't believe you'll agree so easily."

" Senju probably wouldn't just agree like that, would he?"

After thinking it over, she felt that the Five Clans probably wouldn't force their way in.

They should be more afraid of Senju and Sarutobi teaming up to clear the area first.

If we force it, not only will our side not agree, but the Senju won't agree so easily either!

Opening his closed eyes, Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly, confirming his friend's guess.

He took out a pipe from his Ninja Tool Pouch and lit it.

He took a deep drag and let the smoke drift out slowly. Looking at the two people opposite him with questioning eyes, he said, " The Five Clans are using the excuse of fertilizing the Valley of the End to pay each side a one-time service fee of 1.5 billion taels!"

"I don't know the exact number for the Senju side, but it will definitely be more than that."

"However, the extra amount shouldn't be too excessive."

"According to the agreement signed by the three parties, the entire area of Valley of the End will become a battlefield from now on, and both sides will decide for themselves how many people to send in."

There are no restrictions on entry or exit conditions or time limits, but a settlement will be conducted at noon on December 1 1st every year!

"That's when the Valley of the End will be sealed off, and a ceasefire will begin!"

"At that time, the Five Clans will send people to count the number of people from both sides in the valley. The side with more survivors will receive an annual service fee of 1.5 billion taels."

"This is what those guys gave us!"

From the moment I entered that conference room.

The Five Clans leaders had consistently used the pretext of peace in the Shinobi World to persuade both sides.

After proposing restrictive measures, they also provided corresponding compensation.

Once all the steps were in place, coupled with the implicit threats and Senju's initial agreement, the situation became clear.

He immediately lost both the right and the reason to resist.

However, this involves 1.5 billion, and the 1.5 billion to be fought over every year thereafter.

It's also a supplement for them.

But from another perspective, the supplementary effect would be even greater for Senju!

Especially with the Senju ' early agreement, the Five Clans have offered at least 3 billion this time.

Otherwise, Senju ' proactive attitude is not so easy to acquire.

As for why Senju agreed?

Only when the number of people on both sides is controlled can the Senju ' advantage be maximized!

This is the fundamental reason why his attitude differed from that of Sixth Elder Senju.

After listening to Hiruzen's detailed description of the meeting.

Utatane Koharu frowned and muttered, "Let's forget about the initial funding, but the money these Five Clans give us every year... they're just forcing us to go all out!"

" The Senju already received 2 billion yen annually in military funding from Konoha, plus their annual income from their Trade Association."

"If this 1.5 billion also falls into the hands of the Senju, then with the funds from their other allies, the gap between them and us won't be too large!"

While muttering to himself, he quickly calculated the information gathered by the Intelligence Department.

She gritted her teeth and said, "That damned Nara, his ideas really hit everyone's weak spots."

" The Senju will definitely not let go of these funds, and with so many of them, their advantage is diminished!"

"They will definitely put a lot of effort into this game."

"But in that case, in order to prevent the Senju from succeeding, we'll have no choice but to fight with all our might!"

"Gentlemen, this round is over. It seems like our only option now is to fight back."

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzō and Hiruzen Sarutobi in confirmation of her thoughts.

After taking a deep drag on his pipe.

Looking at the one-eyed man opposite him, Hiruzen Sarutobi said softly, " Danzo, you must keep your activities in the Land of Grass in check."

"At the very least, we must ensure that the Commoners there can live normal lives!"

He hadn't considered the fate of that country before.

After all, those were foreigners, and their lives or deaths really had nothing to do with him, the Hokage.

But now he has to do something about it.

Because if they want to win, they need to set aside a group of people to use the original training methods from the Root.

Only Ninja produced in this way will have the strongest combat power!

Of course, people with superior talent shouldn't waste their time like this.

However, with such low to medium consumption, the Land of Grass needs to be more stable in order to provide more consumables!

Hearing this, I understood what it meant.

Shimura Danzō nodded slowly and said, "Alright, Root has trained the previous batch of people with average talent for a period of time, and there have been some improvements. I will provide you with this training method."

"It would be best to train those with lower-level talent in your secret base using this method."

"If there's no time to change things, then you can consider entrusting the entire first year to me!"

He was the one who wanted to fully master the root, and he was also the one who gave his friends a better training method.

Because he wouldn't have any selfish motives when it comes to such important matters!

Fighting for power is one thing, but winning the battle against the Senju is far more important!

Of course, if possible.

He also wanted to use his Root members to pocket the winnings from the previous years.

Because this would amount to 1.5 billion plus the funds provided by that company.

He no longer needs to consider giving up the Root to the three clans!

Upon hearing Shimura Danzō's words and final request, the two people beside him exchanged a knowing glance.

They hadn't forgotten what they had discussed before!

Based on his words, they deduced that he had now made up his mind.

However, this also allowed us to deduce the approximate composition of those who Danzo with Danzo!

Utatane Koharu, raised her eyebrows and made a rough plan in her mind.

If it's about money, then that's easy to solve!

By simply keeping a close eye on the changes in the Land of Grass, we can find out who's behind it all!

At that time, just as the two sides begin the transaction...

Danzo just received the money!

That was the time she decided to take action.

All the money must be confiscated, and the three clans at the Root must also intervene.

For those in their first year, everything must come from the Root!

Hey, this triple blow should really put that scheming bastard to his devices.

I finally know how to write the word "regret"!

At Utatane Koharu's prompting, Hiruzen Sarutobi, puffing on his pipe, nodded crisply and said, "Alright, the first year's battles are all yours."

"Our base needs adjustment; we can even hand it over to you for the second and third years."

"But the prerequisite is that you must win in the first year!"

"Of course, all the winning funds will be given to Root as a bounty."

"But if you lose, Danzo, you'd better think carefully about the consequences!"

He was more than happy to set a trap for this ambitious fellow.

Anyway, it's Koharu's in charge, and Danzo wouldn't turn against Koharu.

So you have to dig yourself a hole that's as big as it can be!

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzō nodded in satisfaction.

A Root training method that was originally slated for release has been replaced by a promise of at least one year and at most three years!

This is absolutely worth it!

With this 1.5 billion replenishment, it seems he needs to hurry back and oversee the training of the Root.

The collaboration with the company also prompted him to go back and gather manpower to begin!

He then took a Scroll from his Ninja Tool Pouch and handed it over, saying, "This is the Root's training method, with notes on areas for improvement."

"For the sake of this year's victory, I can no longer stay in the village."

"You arrange to send this to Yan. I have some things to take care of now, and I'll return to the Land of Grass tonight!"

As he put down the Scroll, he stood up, said goodbye to the two men, and left the office.

After Danzo's figure disappeared, the remaining two nodded in tacit agreement and went about their own business.

evening.

In the Lounge on the south wall of the Capital of the Land of Bears.

The initial suppression mission has been completed.

The three of them also completed the handover with the army that the Miko had come to during the day.

They are currently resting in the room where they will be staying for the next few months!

Looking at this panel that only I can see.

I didn't open the message notifications to check the general information of each message.

Uka Senju immediately looked at the total amount!

When we left the village, we had a little over 940,000. Along the way, apart from the few thousand provided by the Ninja, we had a significant amount.

The rest all came from the Capital suppression mission!

More than 300,000, which is why he didn't want to open the message notification.

Because he could deduce the approximate age of those people from each of those entries!

Although one could justify their actions by saying that everyone deserves to die, and that the army should also die.

However, his sense of right and wrong from his past life had not yet dissipated, and he still harbored a great deal of complex emotions!

I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to think things through.

Now, most of the tasks have been handed over to the military.

After you have some free time!

Looking at the energy level of 99 in the last message notification, and the total energy amount that had soared to 300,000.

He couldn't help but reflect on his actions over the past few days!

Is this a fast data collection speed?

soon!

Why didn't we do this before?

I can't get over it in my heart, and there are Clan members around me!

Why did we do that now?

I'm getting anxious...!

After asking herself this question in her heart Uka Senju...

He also understood why he made the decision to massacre people that day!

That's because they were anxious after witnessing the battle on the cliffs of Star Ninja Mountain.

The changes in his own strength, the scenes on the battlefield, and his memories from his past life made him anxious!

He was eager to start the second injection as soon as possible, then the Third Injection, the fourth, the fifth... until he was completely Invincibility and stood at the top of this world!

Only in this way could he completely eliminate the threat to his life.

And only then can we have the opportunity to truly enjoy life and leisure!

Power, life and death—the allure of these things is too great.

Especially when there's a shortcut, it's really hard for him not to take that step!

But in the end, is that version of yourself still yourself?

Wouldn't I become the next Ōtsutsuki?
