The Fourth Elder's answer was something the Ino-Shika-Cho Clans had long been prepared for.
But when they heard it with their own ears, the three clan leaders couldn't help but show a look of 'melancholy' on their faces!
I feel sorry for my own kind!
This is a normal emotion that any person would feel. Senju has already made his stance clear: not a single loser will be left alive.
This... more or less had a certain impact on the three of them, who had all existed since the village was founded!
They had actually hoped to hear from the Fourth Elder that the Senju would leave behind some ordinary members of their clan.
The opponent is the Senju, who is renowned for his 'trustworthiness,' 'benevolence,' and 'generosity.'
However, it's not hard to see from the Fourth Elder's response that the Senju are already undergoing a transformation.
The Senju clearly had no intention of letting any more losers go, which made the three families worry about how to survive under the changed Senju banner.
However, it's not a big problem if Senju isn't spared.
After all, the current state of the Sarutobi Four Clans and the Uchiha, and Senju massacre of the Uchiha, are most likely related to betrayal!
Given the current situation, this is the only way they can console themselves!
Sensing the change in the three clan leaders' emotions after he gave his answer, the Fourth Elder smiled and then said seriously, " Tobirama once proposed a Ninjutsu idea that would summon the ancestors of the Pure Land to fight."
"However, in the end, Hashirama Chief Hashirama felt that the time for death had not yet passed, so he banned it, and all related research materials were sealed away."
Have any of you heard of this news?
The Fourth Elder's words left the three of them somewhat bewildered.
However, none of the three believed that the Fourth Elder would speak nonsense at this time.
Therefore, the Nara Clan Head and the Yamanaka Clan Head subconsciously turned their gazes to the Akimichi Clan Head opposite them.
Before the two could even look at him, Akimichi Clan Head began to rummage through the memories in his mind!
Ignoring Akimichi, who was deep in thought, and the other two who clearly hadn't heard anything, the Fourth Elder paused before continuing, " Lord Tobirama had actually completed part of this Ninjutsu concept; all the sealed data was stored in the Hokage Building at the time."
"Of course, there's also a small section about this Ninjutsu within the Senju Clan Compound, which is how we learned about its existence and the conditions for its Ninjutsu."
"Our assessment confirms that this Ninjutsu is effective, but one of the conditions is that we need a portion of the deceased's flesh!"
When the Fourth Elder's voice rang out again, they finally received confirmation from the Akimichi Clan Head on the other side that this Ninjutsu existed.
But after listening to the Fourth Elder's last sentence, one of the requirements for activating Ninjutsu.
The Nara Clan Head had already figured something out based on the limited information he had gathered.
But this speculation is too unacceptable. At a time like this, the Fourth Senju Elder would obviously not speak nonsense!
The speculation in his mind made the Nara Clan Head widen his eyes and stare intently at the Fourth Elder.
He was seeking verification, verifying whether his speculation was the truth.
The behavior of the Nara Clan Head left both the Akimichi Clan Head and Yamanaka Clan Head somewhat puzzled.
Because their behavior was clearly impolite!
However, through their long-term collaboration, the Ino-Shika-Cho understood that the Nara Clan Head's behavior must be due to some crucial thought.
So, thanks to the bond they formed during the Ino-Shika-Cho years ago, the two decided to speak up and ease the tense atmosphere caused by the Nara Clan Head's actions!
However, before the two could speak...
The Fourth Elder, who had been expressionless as he met the Nara Clan Head, suddenly broke into a smile.
He smiled and said to the Nara Clan Head, whose face was growing increasingly grim, " The Sarutobi Four Clans have summoned most of their members, and they are currently engaged in battle with the Senju!"
" Nara Clan Head, what do you say? Should they be allowed to stay?"
If the speculation comes true, then it largely means...
The Nara Clan Head involuntarily clenched his fists, forcing out a sentence through gritted teeth. "All Four Clans deserve to die!"
Upon hearing this, the Fourth Elder's smile widened even further.
But he did not speak again, nor did he escalate the situation further.
One of the three on the other side has already figured it out, so the result will be revealed soon!
He didn't have to wait long; after the three of them exchanged a silent message through the Scroll,
The three clan leaders, their faces flushed, reached a consensus!
" The Ino-Shika-Cho will fully cooperate with the Senju's operation; we will send a message to the external teams shortly."
"The Senju are ready to be mobilized and deployed as needed for combat!"
As the mastermind behind the three clans, the Nara Clan Head once again made a representative commitment.
In fact, when the battle in the distance came to a conclusion, he had already decided to side with the Senju.
This time, however, his choice was not later than offering help in times of need, nor earlier than adding to someone's existing success, as he had previously planned!
The Senju moved so fast that they didn't have time to choose.
He had too little information after the war started to make a concrete judgment, so he did not immediately agree.
I just wanted to see if I could gain some benefits while adding to what I already had!
However, the final blow given by the Fourth Elder caused them, who were still feeling uneasy after hearing the decision to spare no Senju, to immediately change their stance.
Those beasts truly deserve to die for what they did!
Once the news spreads, it's no wonder that the people of those tribes will be ruthless towards those beasts!
Having received the answer he wanted from the Nara Clan Head chief, the Fourth Elder nodded in satisfaction and said, "Then I will pass on the message. Your three clans' forces within the village will be dispatched directly to the Sarutobi Clan Compound!"
"As for the teams from outside, based on our intelligence, it would be best if you ordered them to return to Konoha as soon as possible."
"I'll send a message to the outer perimeter shortly, so they can get through smoothly!"
"We need to pool all our resources; we might have to fight another battle outside the village!"
The reason for this haste in getting neutral parties involved is twofold: first, to dampen the morale of the Sarutobi Four Clans, and second, to allow neutral parties to witness firsthand what the Sarutobi are doing.
I'm sure the scene will be quite something when they see what their deceased relatives are doing!
The Fourth Elder couldn't help but look forward to the scene when the Nara Clan Head would see his father later!
Upon hearing the request from the other side, the Nara Clan Head immediately responded, "Yes, Fourth Elder. The three of us will make arrangements immediately."
"Yes, the team will set off immediately!" Akimichi Clan Head's anger, still burning from the information on the Scroll, was still evident as he shouted sternly.
Negotiations between the Shinobi Clan are not that simple.
The general direction has been achieved, but everything else depends on the Clan's strength.
Of course, if the Sarutobi Four Clans hadn't taken part of the father's body and summoned him, the Fourth Elder might have had to agree to some benefits during the negotiations!
And now, the most primitive method has confirmed the outcome.
How many Ino-Shika-Cho can be produced depends on the extent to which the war played a role and how much strength they have left after the war!
After confirming with the three clans, the Fourth Elder refused their offer to see him off and left the Nara Clan Compound with his guards.
After he returned to the group, ninja beasts carrying letters flew into the sky!
Within the territory of a Shinobi Clan that is considered the third largest in Konoha.
They were also sitting in a Pavilion, but this Pavilion was not as simple as the one in Nara.
It's more accurate to describe it as a wooden room without walls, only curtains for privacy, rather than a Pavilion.
The conversation that had been going on inside the hall was suddenly interrupted by a series of hurried footsteps.
The group immediately stopped communicating and turned their attention to the newcomer!
A Young Man wearing Senju Forehead Protector rushed into the room with the help of Chakra.
Ignoring the Byakugan looks from those around him, he walked straight to his elder and handed him a letter, saying, " Sixth Elder, Urgent Intelligence!"
Upon hearing this, the Sixth Elder quickly sat up straight and accepted the gifts from the clansmen.
Upon opening the package and seeing its contents, the previously serious-looking Sixth Elder couldn't help but smile!
But the occasion wasn't right, so he could only suppress the urge to smile and nod to the clan leader, saying, "Alright, I understand. You may leave now!"
"Yes, Elder!" The Young Man with Senju hands bowed and then left at lightning speed.
As for those rolling Byakugan Byakugan, he completely ignored them!
From the moment the Young Man entered and spoke, the Hyūga Clan Head, whose gaze had been fixed on the Sixth Elder, slightly raised a finger.
Immediately, someone ran out of a room not far behind and, following orders, began arranging for people to investigate!
The Sixth Elder had been observing everything that was happening in the room, ignored Hyūga's little tricks.
The note told him he didn't need to worry about anything anymore.
So after his clansmen left, he continued arguing with the Hyuga high-ranking members Hyūga front of him, just like before!
However, the threshold for the parts that were previously planned to be given up has now been raised considerably.
And the part they didn't want to give up went directly from hesitation to refusal!
Bang--
The second purple giant, representing the ultimate power of the Uchiha Clan, came to an end in this battle, being instantly destroyed by the over fifty-meter-tall wooden giant above it.
"Aaaaaaahhhhh~!"
As the purple giant dissipated into specks of light, a scream rang out.
A middle-aged man covered his face with his hands and rolled around on the dusty, bloodstained, and filthy ground.
He has lost all the dashing style he had when he fought the wooden giant alone, and he no longer has the idea that he could smash the wooden giant with one punch when he first awakened!
" Yatomo!"
" Yatomo!"
"Quickly save Yatomo!" A Uchiha Mitsudomoe standing in the back row commanded the clansmen closest to the screaming person.
He didn't want to see a repeat of what happened to Anna Uchiha.
This is the ultimate power of the Uchiha!
They were on such a fierce battlefield right after their awakening, and they didn't feel anything about being defeated.
If they can save him, then once he recovers, the Uchiha will have another Mangekyō user.
"Stop it! Stop it!" Looking at the giant hand spread out in the sky, a Uchiha Mitsudomoe shouted loudly as he Hand Seals to release Ninjutsu.
Startled by his companion's voice and seeing the hand reaching down from the sky, one of the Uchiha, who had been fortunate enough to fight from the very beginning, commanded, "Use Fire Style! Fire Style!"
"Ugh~ Ah!"
The repeated failures of the Mangekyō and the continuous deaths of clan members caused some mental problems for these powerful Uchiha members, problems that were difficult to accept.
He shouted unconsciously, gripped the long sword in his hand tightly, and launched a death charge towards the wooden giant!
"Help!"
"..."
The battlefield was in an uproar because of the shattering of the purple giant and the wooden hand reaching down from above again!
The formation that had been working in conjunction with the purple giant had become chaotic.
However, these Mitsudomoe had very different ideas; they wanted to stop the enemy and rescue their own Mangekyō.
So despite the chaotic scene, these three-tomoe Uchiha were all diligently doing these two things!
Before Wood Release Chakra Uchiha rushed to save Flower Tree World arrived, Uka Senju manipulated the tree roots to lift the Mangekyō into the sky.
As the Wood Golem reached for the spoils, he, who was aware of all the plants in the area, could only increase his Chakra output to repair the Wood Golem's body as quickly as possible.
These Uchiha have gone mad. Just by looking at them now, even if you presented them with all the evidence of their previous split, you'd still have to wonder if they were putting on an act for the outside world!
Amidst the constant thuds and explosions of various Ninjutsu, Uka Senju managed to snatch her spoils using Wood Golem.
The joy of the harvest lifted his spirits considerably.
Glancing at the colorful, bizarrely shaped Ninjutsu flying towards him below, he felt that after today...
Within the entire Shinobi World, there are probably very few Ninjutsu that I haven't seen or haven't experienced!
In his previous life, Kakashi Hatake was able to earn the title of Copy Ninja with just one eye, so imagine how much more capable these two Mitsudomoe are now!
Fire, lightning, Wind Cutter, water blasting, earth covering—he witnessed more Ninjutsu in today's battle than in the previous ten years of his life!
Unfortunately, the man fighting these guys now has completely moved beyond the era of hand-to-hand combat.
Since he acquired the complete Sage Body and Wood Release, Kekkei Genkai best suited for dealing with group attacks, the situation in the Shinobi World where slightly weaker individuals could still fight due to sheer numbers would no longer occur with him!
Control the Wood Dragon on your shoulder, make it soar into the air again and then plunge downwards.
It was another three-pronged attack. With Wood Dragon overhead, Flower Tree World in the middle, and countless plant roots underground, a normal Ninja could easily dodge it with a Substitution Technique.
However, when they encountered the Flower Tree World, which actively destroys the Substitution Wood, even if they used the Ninjutsu Technique, they were still within Uka Senju's large attack range!
Boom--
The three collided, sending dust, fragments of wooden objects, and the bodily tissues of those who died within flying everywhere.
With Uka Senju unleashing her full power, these Mitsudomoe, without the Mangekyō, had no chance of a direct confrontation.
They had to be wary of the ubiquitous tree branches around them, fearing that touching them would drain their Chakra, while also dodging attacks from above that could fall on them at any moment.
In this battle, Uka Senju piloted a Gundam, and when Susanoo, she famously opened the can below.
His senses spread out, and he discovered that the Uchiha group that had come with him had already begun their cleanup with the help of the pollen.
Having already acquired two pairs of Mangekyō, he increased his power and began to bring this battle to a close!
