Chapter 70 Almighty, or mediocre.

A few days later, Mito Uzumaki died, but there was no grand funeral.

Not many people came to attend the secret funeral of Uzumaki Mito, only a few high-level officials of Konoha and the Senju clan who seemed to have lost their backbone.

It is hard to imagine that the funeral of Uzumaki Mito, who dedicated his life to Konoha, could be so deserted after his death.

But this is not the fault of Konoha, nor is it anyone's fault, but the life or death of Uzumaki Mito is crucial to Konoha and even the entire ninja world.

At this sensitive time point, any small change will have a huge impact on the future, let alone Konoha's Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki Uzumaki Mito.

Moreover, Uzumaki Kushina also returned to the ninja school after disappearing for a few days. Although there was disappointment in her eyes, no one would notice at all.

Of course, the careful Namikaze Minato still noticed something, but because of his status as a civilian ninja, even if he guessed that something was wrong, he could not see the truth of the matter.

All in all, Konoha is still a prosperous scene on the outside, with almost no major events happening.

But if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that there are some new faces in Konoha these days, including dignitaries and wealthy businessmen in the ninja world.

"In the same way, Sharingan and even my double pupils are my advantages. It depends on my upper limit."

"Enter."

"Reply normally, just say that we welcome people from Kumogakure Village to participate in this joint chunin exam."

"Chongming, this time the Joint Chunin Examination, because of the interference of Kumogakure Village, the smell of blood has become much stronger."

Reaching out to take the diplomatic document handed over by the civilian ninja, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned more and more as he looked at it.

"Confidence is naturally there."

Uchiha Shinya was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly, "Chongming, sometimes I, a fellow Uchiha, feel that you are a little too...proud."

Uchiha Shinya still didn't agree with Uchiha Shigeaki's approach, and once again raised objections, "And you are focusing on improving your own body, are you putting the cart before the horse?"

Obviously, the joint chuunin exams are about to begin.

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen remained silent, the civilian ninja asked tentatively.

"By the way, Chongming, is the blood of the psychic beast really that important to you?"

"I understand, Hokage-sama."

"Clan leader, I don't know if you have heard of this sentence."

Uchiha Shinya filled the tea cup for Uchiha Shigeaki, "How are you preparing? Are you confident that you can win the first place?"

"Hokage-sama."

"never mind……"

"But apart from the Sharingan and the Double Eye, whether I am excellent in other aspects will determine whether I can break through my own limits and reach a new level of strength."

On the other hand, Uchiha Shigeaki also attaches great importance to the Sharingan, but he also pays attention to other aspects and does not put the Sharingan in a very transcendent priority.

"Hokage-sama, this is an application submitted by Kumogakure Village. They also want to participate in this joint chunin exam."

Seeing that Uchiha Shigeaki didn't speak, Uchiha Shinya could only change the topic.

But after thinking for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't think of a reason.

On that day, Hiruzen Sarutobi announced to the public that the Joint Chunin Examination would be held soon, causing the peaceful Konoha Village to agitate.

"You... are still a little too confident."

In the document, Kumogakure's wording was very particular, without the "reckless" attributes of the past, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously feel that there must be a hidden story behind it.

"Go and summon the top management of Konoha and ask them to hold a meeting here."

In the hearts of Uchiha Shinya, or all Uchiha, the Sharingan is the foundation of their strength, and all tactical systems will be built around the Sharingan.

The civilian ninja left, but Hiruzen Sarutobi did not return to his work, but continued to frown in thought.

After everyone had read the documents handed over by Kumo Hidden Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke, "Everyone, what do you think of Kumo Hidden Village's diplomatic behavior this time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Shinya, who had just picked up the tea cup, was stunned. He didn't even notice the tea spilled on his hand.

And in addition, if Konoha shines in this joint chunin exam, the benefits to Konoha will be obvious.

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

Uchiha Shigeaki clenched his fists, "When my strength reaches a certain level, the psychic beast will be dispensable."

Uchiha Shinya and Uchiha Shigeaki sat opposite each other.

Uchiha Shigeaki exudes unparalleled confidence, "One more Kumogakure is not much, but one without him makes me feel that the challenge is not enough."

The addition of Kumogakure makes this joint chuunin exam more convincing and authoritative.

The members of the Hokage's guard followed the order and left, and soon the Hokage's office was filled with people.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head, the door to the Hokage's office was pushed open, and a civilian ninja walked in.

It was obvious that the high-level officials of Konoha were very worried and even suspected that the people in Kumogakure had another purpose for their visit.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who couldn't figure it out, sighed, and then called in his members of the Hokage Guard.

Uchiha Shinya didn't understand, and felt that there was something wrong with Uchiha Shigeaki's thinking, and wanted to correct it.

"And compared to relying on psychic beasts, I still trust myself more, even if this will hinder me in the early stage."

"Clan Chief, after I forged my body with the heart blood of Tianzhi Dog, you can see the specific effects. Hunting psychic beasts has become inevitable."

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not show off, and handed over the document in his hand for everyone to circulate.

"Clan leader, I had no intention of using the psychic beast in the first place."

The two advisors of Konoha, the ministers of various departments, the heads of various ninja clans, all of them add up to about twenty people.

"Oh?" Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows, "Let me take a look."

A group of Konoha high-level officials discussed it for a long time, but none of them guessed the true purpose of Cloud Hidden Village this time.

Naturally, Uchiha Shigeaki understood the meaning of Uchiha Shinya's words, but he was not embarrassed, let alone explained.

Uchiha resident.

"What words?"

A sad look appeared on Uchiha Shinya's face, "I know this, but if you really do this, the psychic beasts will absolutely hate you to the core, and you will never have a psychic beast to use in the future."

"Hokage-sama, how should we reply?"

But they couldn't refuse without evidence. After all, the purpose behind this joint chuunin exam was to postpone the disputes between the villages.

Both civilians and ninjas are very keen on showing off their muscles to the outside world. The topic of the Joint Chunin Examination has undoubtedly become a "hot search".

But even if they couldn't guess, they still made arrangements and strengthened the originally planned defense strength several times.

After thinking for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen added, "But when replying, we must explain to them clearly that we have limits on the number of participants and accompanying persons to prevent any trouble."

Uchiha Shigeaki stretched out his hand and drew a circle, "How much water a bucket can hold does not depend on how big it is, but on the shortest piece of wood."

After that, Uchiha Shinya smiled bitterly and put down the tea cup, "Chongming, your idea is right. Many Uchiha seniors have thought and done this before."

"But people's energy is limited. Trying to cover everything does not mean it is impossible, but it will be very difficult. Even in the end...geniuses will become mediocre."

But just when Uchiha Shigeaki was about to retort, Uchiha Shinya suddenly changed the subject.

"But, I still choose to believe you."
