I became the head of the Uchiha clan

Fugaku couldn't see the faces of the ANBU members, but he could tell through the changes in their eyes that their faces must be ugly.

As an ANBU member, I was approached and eavesdropped on the conversation of several people without being discovered. If they were enemies, these people would probably have been killed.

"We need to confirm your identity. It is a matter of life and death for the Fire Nation, so we need to proceed with caution."

Fugaku nodded, the three magatama writing wheels rotated rapidly, and a powerful aura emanated from him. Several ANBU members suddenly became extremely nervous and involuntarily clenched the weapons in their hands.

Several less powerful ANBU members felt invincible.

The Sharingan slowly swept across several ANBU members. Each ANBU member felt dizzy, and a pair of constantly rotating Sharingan was reflected in their mind.

All ANBU members were briefly trapped in the illusion. If Fugaku was the enemy, several of them would have been eliminated by now.

The ANBU team leader has many fantasies in his mind.

"The situation of your team."

"I am Fire Wolf, the captain of the eighth team of the Hokage ANBU..."

Fire Wolf stopped talking in the middle of the sentence and said: "It can make me fall into an illusion the moment we look at each other. Uchiha Fugaku is truly worthy of his reputation."

The surrounding ANBU members put away their weapons one after another, and their eyes suddenly changed when they looked at Fugaku. They may have heard of Fugaku's various achievements before, but they didn't feel much about it.

In this personal contact, just one glance made several people feel the difference in strength.

"How is the situation in the Kingdom of Rain now?"

The ANBU team leader was silent for a long time and said: "The Fengtu Allied Forces have broken through the defense line established by Konoha in the Rain Country. ANBU members had a fight with each other during the day.

The coalition forces of the two countries are approaching fiercely, and the Anbu can only implement harassment tactics to delay the opponent's advance.

In the previous battles, more than half of the Anbu had been killed and wounded, and the remaining Anbu members were densely packed around the coalition camp. If reinforcements did not appear today, the other side would directly enter the Land of Fire tomorrow.

The remaining Anbu cannot stop the opponent's progress."

Fugaku nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to the reinforcements. Have you found out who the commander of the Fengtu Allied Forces is?"

"No, we haven't had time to investigate yet. I'm afraid we need to contact Men Yan and Senior Xiaochun's team for the specific situation."

"You first contact the ANBU members around you to inform them that reinforcements have arrived, set up traps on the spot, and retreat first.

Once the opponent makes a new move, there is no need to block it, just retreat and notify the reinforcements in the rear."

One after another, figures disappeared into the night. Fugaku walked around the Futu Alliance and saw several teams of Konoha ANBU. Basically everyone was injured, and every ANBU was extremely exhausted.

There were more than 300 ANBU members, and more than 100 people were directly killed in this battle. It was considered a heavy loss. In order to block the opponent's progress, they paid a high price.

After communicating with several ANBU captains, Fugaku turned around and headed towards the border. The ANBU members had already begun to retreat. There were early warning traps in front and Konoha reinforcements behind them. They could have a good rest at night.

In the border reinforcement camp, the main camp tent was still brightly lit, and Orochimaru and the other three were waiting for Fugaku's information.

Entering the tent, Nara Shikamaru said: "How is the situation, Fugaku?"

"Traces of Anbu members have been discovered, and the situation is not optimistic. The defense line built by Men Yan, Koharu, and the two consultants has been breached. It is very likely that the four bases in the Kingdom of Rain have suffered heavy losses.

You still need to get in touch with the other party again to know the specific situation.

More than half of the ANBU were lost while delaying the opponent's speed. If we hadn't arrived in time, the opponent would have probably entered the Land of Fire tomorrow morning."

As soon as Fugaku finished speaking, the atmosphere in the tent became a little heavy.

Elder Shinsuke broke the tranquility and said: "I hope nothing big happens to Koharu Koharu, and the ANBU has done a good job, otherwise we are likely to see each other's camp at the border. With the current state of Konoha's reinforcements, the result is not optimistic."

"Start gathering at four o'clock tomorrow morning and march into the Kingdom of Rain. The battlefield between the two sides must be placed in the Kingdom of Rain instead of the Kingdom of Fire. Try to prevent even one team from the other side from entering the Kingdom of Fire." Orochimaru said.

"It's getting late now. Let's go back and rest."

Several people nodded. Behind the tent was a separate room for several people. Fugaku approached the room and lay on the bed, feeling deep fatigue welling up in his heart.

Age is now an important factor limiting his growth in strength.

A few hours passed quickly, and Fugaku felt that as soon as he closed his eyes and opened them again, it was almost time to gather.

Walking out of the tent, the quiet camp became noisy, and the ninjas had begun to gather.

"The reconnaissance team will first explore the situation ahead and detect traps."

"yes."

Figures disappeared in front of the camp in an instant. Among them were mainly ninjas from the Hyuga family and the Aburame family, and were supplemented by other ninjas.

"Moving forward, this trip can only lead to victory, not failure. The time has come to defend Konoha's honor."

A famous ninja was moving forward quickly with a surging heart. Fugaku could feel the firm belief in people's hearts.

Although the rain is cold, it cannot dampen the blood in people's hearts.

An hour later, the pitch-black sky became dim, and the rain became slightly heavier than before. Several figures appeared in front of them. They were a member of the Hyuga clan and two ANBU.

"How is the situation of the Fengtu Alliance?"

"Senior Orochimaru, the Futu Allied Forces have begun to assemble and are expected to advance in half an hour."

Orochimaru nodded and said: "The ANBU members withdrew, notified the reconnaissance team to retreat, and each team set up traps on the spot.

The combined forces of the two countries are basically twice the size of Konoha's reinforcements. A head-on confrontation will only cause heavy losses to ourselves. Our main purpose is to delay the other party in the Land of Rain."

Fugaku said: "Once the war reaches a stalemate, it will return to the situation before the Rain Country. We can send out news to gather the Konoha ninjas who were originally scattered in the Rain Country.

As long as we slow down the progress of the two countries in the early stage and demoralize them, there is still a possibility of victory later."

Nara Shikamaru nodded and said: "Hanzo has always been extremely dissatisfied with the Three Kingdoms of Wind, Earth, and Fire fighting in the Land of Rain, and even declared war on the Three Kingdoms. Later, we can unite with the Rain Ninjas.

After promising victory, the Konoha ninjas will withdraw from the Country of Rain, and the Rain ninjas will declare war on the Three Kingdoms. If they suddenly form an alliance with Konoha, they will definitely catch the Allied Forces off guard."

Fugaku nodded in his mind, Nara Shikamaru's suggestion was good.

The team began to disperse and set up traps on the spot. The main purpose of the traps was to delay the opponent's time. The reconnaissance team and ANBU ninjas successively appeared in the line of sight of the reinforcements.

Joined the team that laid the trap.

There are also many kinds of traps. The outermost one that greets the Allied Forces is the physical trap, which is also a trap that many civilians often set up. The biggest advantage of physical traps is that there are no chakra fluctuations.
