Uchiha Family's Reincarnation

Chapter 3 Changes in the Battle Situation

……

At the same time.

In the Hokage's office.

"Third-generation sir, the elder of Mitomon sent an urgent report from the Rain Country. It seems that Hanzo of the Salamander has signs of joining forces with Iwagakure. The situation is critical. Please send someone to support."

An Anbu half-knelt on the ground and reported to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"I know, you go down first. By the way, call Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsunade."

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, indicating that the Anbu should withdraw first and go to inform Orochimaru and others. Then he picked up his pipe and thought carefully.

Some time ago, Konoha had two major events, one of which was widely known and the other was limited to a certain range.

The first one was that Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo led an elite ninja team deep behind enemy lines and killed two high-ranking officials of the Sand Village, which greatly saved the disadvantageous situation on the western front. Hatake Sakumo became famous in one battle and shocked the ninja world.

The second one is a long story.

The northeastern Kumogakure tried to invade the Land of Fire, and the Third Raikage himself was extremely powerful. Sarutobi Hiruzen had no choice but to go into battle himself and block the Kumogakure. In the end, the two sides were deadlocked, and Kumogakure chose to negotiate, which Sarutobi Hiruzen gladly accepted.

As a result, this peace talk was called a peace talk, but in fact it was a trap set by Kumogakure to abduct Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Fortunately, he was rescued by his good disciple, Minato Namikaze.

I thought the matter was over, but after that, Kumogakure prepared to send troops on the grounds that Konoha killed the peace envoy sent by Kumogakure.

In addition to the battlefield in the Land of Rain, Konoha was equivalent to fighting on three fronts at this time, and it was not strong enough.

Sarutobi Hiruzen will be dispatching troops soon, and in order to ensure that he will not lose as the Hokage, he has already sent a considerable part of the main force of the village to the north. At the same time, in order to avoid that no one will complete the tasks in the village and to avoid excessive emptiness in the village, some senior students of the Ninja School have begun to graduate early.

Now Mito Kado En has come to ask for reinforcements again, so now, it can be expected that Konoha's troops will soon be vacant.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand and signed an order requiring the Ninja School to start the graduation assessment of the fourth and fifth grade students in advance.

As for why there is no sixth grade...

That's because the sixth graders have already graduated early, and there are no sixth graders in the Ninja School this year.

"Bang!"

The door of the Hokage's office was kicked open.

The person who kicked the door was Tsunade, and behind her were Orochimaru and Jiraiya.

"Old man, we are here!"

Tsunade sat down in the seat opposite Sarutobi Hiruzen carelessly, and coming to the Hokage's office was like returning home.

Although strictly speaking, Konoha is indeed her home, when the first and second generations were still there, she played in the Hokage's office a lot.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not surprised by this. He took off the pipe in his mouth and looked at his three proud disciples in front of him.

"I have a very important thing to entrust to you three." Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly.

"In the Rain Country, Hanzo has shown signs of joining forces with Iwagakure, and there is also Sand Village in the game. The elder of Mitomon can't stand it alone. I plan to let you take 2,000 ninjas from the reserve force to support."

"Rain Country..."

Tsunade looked at Orochimaru with a complicated look.

Her younger brother, Rope Tree, who was also Orochimaru's disciple, was killed by the detonating talisman in the Rain Country two years ago after being trapped by Iwagakure.

Orochimaru was silent for a moment, then asked:

"Old man, what do you want to do specifically?"

"The situation in the Land of Rain is chaotic. Not only are there the armies of three major countries, but there is also Hanzo. The local power of the Land of Rain, the Hidden Rain Village, cannot be underestimated. It has almost become a quagmire of war in Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and continued:

"What I want you to do is to cooperate with Yan to stabilize the situation, giving priority to preserving the main forces of the village. I will bring another group of ninjas north to stop the Hidden Cloud Village in a while. On the eastern front, after Sakumo did that, it has also gained a great advantage. As long as these two sides make certain breakthroughs, they can open up the situation and improve the situation in the village."

"Teacher Sarutobi."

Orochimaru suddenly interrupted:

"Why don't you consider opening up the situation directly from the Land of Rain?"

"The situation in the Land of Rain is more chaotic..."

"It is precisely because it is more chaotic that it is the most likely place to make a breakthrough."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked into the eyes of his most outstanding disciple.

This is a pair of rational, confident, and wise eyes. This look always reminds the third generation of his teacher, the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama.

He is a perfect ninja who is more talented than Orochimaru.

"Four countries, four forces, as long as one of them changes, the situation in the Rain Country will change immediately."

"What do you plan to do?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"Find Hanzo to cooperate, because the positions of the three major countries are the most difficult to change, and there are fundamental conflicts of interest. Hanzo, as a local force, is probably the one who wants to break the current situation the most, because if the war continues like this, it will take a few years for the Rain Country to completely lose its war potential."

"But Hanzo is now trying to join forces with the Rock Country..."

"That's because Konoha is too strong, and Sand Village is too aggressive because it is too poor, and Hanzo hopes to find a relatively weak ally to ensure his position in the alliance."

A few years ago, Iwagakure and Kirigakure went to war, and the second generation Mizukage and the second generation Tsuchikage died together. After that, the scale of the war between the two villages continued to expand. Most of the main forces of Iwagakure followed the third generation Tsuchikage Ohnoki to fight with Kirigakure, and the forces left in the Rain Country were relatively weak.

"What are you going to do?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Orochimaru and asked.

"It's very simple."

Orochimaru licked his lips, and a hesitant smile appeared on his pale face.

"As long as we make Hanzo feel that Konoha must win in the end, he will take the initiative to join forces with us."

"Hanzo's strength is very strong, not inferior to this old man. Even if the three of you join forces, you may not be able to defeat him, but this can be used as an alternative plan. If there is room for operation, you can try it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was still worried and told his disciples.

He had a deep understanding of the strength levels and talents of his three students. He had no doubt that his three disciples would become ninjas as strong as himself in the future, but now, their strength was still a little short of the strength that could compare to the Kage.
