Naruto's Strongest Force

Uchiha clan land

Late at night, reception room.

"How many people are you Uchiha planning to send out?"

Tudai asked.

Natsuki was thinking about who would be suitable to take out for some experience. Itachi and Shisui would definitely go.

"Itachi and Shisui will bring one or two more elites, and I will be responsible for containing the people of Konoha in the village."

Dodai nodded, Itachi is a master of Mangekyō Sharingan, Shisui is a master who has been famous for many years, and is also suspected to be a master of Mangekyō Sharingan.

Natsuki confirmed his guess: "Shisui, like Itachi, both have the Mangekyō Sharingan."

Now Uchiha no longer needs to hide this information, besides, Shisui's Susanoo will definitely be used recently.

oh!

Tutai nodded, outside speculation and Xiamu's own admission were still two different concepts.

There are two powerful Mangekyō Sharingan, and Uchiha is also full of sincerity.

Natsuki's efforts to contain Konoha within the clan were much more useful than going to the battlefield on her own.

As for Fugaku, he has not been seen in public since the last attack. Most likely, he was seriously injured.

So Natsuki didn't say anything, and Todai didn't ask.

"What about profit distribution?" Tutai asked. He didn't know how big Xia Mu's appetite was.

Natsuki walked around the desk and took a map from the side.

Take the pen and circle around the four islands on the left side of the Water Kingdom.

"We Uchiha want these islands."

Tudai took a closer look and saw that these were the islands to the west of Kirigakure, close to the former Uzumaki Country.

It doesn't look very big on the map, but the combined area is comparable to that of Tian Country.

Let alone the Uchiha clan, even if the entire Konoha Village were moved there, this territory would be more than enough.

Moreover, these four islands all have important trade ports in the Kingdom of Water, making them extremely suitable for business development.

Tutai pondered for a while and then agreed.

After all, the war hasn't started yet, so we can only give a general idea. Once the fight is over, everything is easy to talk about. If you don't win, then everything is over.

If the Kingdom of Water is defeated, but both Uchiha's kaleidoscopes are lost...

Therefore, the final distribution of benefits still depends on the remaining strength of both parties.

However, this possibility is unlikely. Uchiha, Natsuki and a whole group of people, it is impossible for Kumogakure to be reluctant to part with a few islands.

It would not be a good thing to offend a family with unlimited potential.

"Okay, it's settled."

Natsuki settled the matter directly.

"How long does it take for you to prepare for war? Can you avoid being discovered?" Xia Mu asked some layman questions.

Now that they are allies, Tutai said very bluntly: "We need to conduct preliminary inspections before we can make combat deployments."

"Whether the transport ships are sufficient depends on the monsoon climate at sea. It will take three months at the earliest to prepare."

"The sea voyage also takes about a month. It is difficult to hide this kind of movement from the Kingdom of Water."

It’s been half a year? Xia Mu didn't expect that it would take so long to prepare.

Didn't the Fourth Ninja War only last three days?

"Does it take that long for us ninjas to gather together? Isn't it just a few days?"

"Does your ship need to sail for a month?" Xia Mu felt that the ships of the Kingdom of Thunder were quite advanced.

Tudai had no choice but to explain to Natsuki.

None of the five major countries has an organized army, only some private armies and other officials and managers who protect the daimyo. It's not helpful at first.

If we want to occupy a large area of ​​the Kingdom of Water this time, we will need a large number of occupying personnel.

Then you need to count some managers and subsequent managers.

The combat strategy also needs to be adjusted according to the different conditions in the Kingdom of Water.

The time to test and find out the situation is much longer than the time to assemble.

Kumogakure's boat is fast, but not everyone can adapt to that speed.

Xia Mu suddenly realized.

Although the ninjas in this world all come and go, their numbers are too small and they cannot completely occupy such a large territory.

Moreover, a protracted war is very logistically demanding and requires ordinary people to serve as tools.

"In that case, go and investigate for yourselves. I can only guarantee that Gotachibana Yagura and Sanwei Isofu are both dead, and they probably won't be able to be resurrected for a few months.

Vulpix Yugao also defected, and the chance of being captured by Kirigakure is low. "

Xia Mu just listened to a few words and felt that this was an extremely complicated issue.

Fortunately, I don't have to think about these issues.

And Yunyin will definitely not succeed, because he is the biggest mole!

"We will inform you after we finish the investigation."

Natsuki thought for a moment: "I will send Itachi and Shisui to Otogakure in advance, which is closer to you Kumogakure."

Tutai nodded: "This is better."

"I still need to go back to resume my life, so I'll take my leave now." Tutai left directly.

Xia Mu didn't leave anyone behind. He saw that the earth platform had completely blocked him and disappeared into the dark night.

It has to be said that Dodai is always the same person, and he keeps things confidential very well. Among the Uchiha clan, only Natsuki knows his identity.

The negotiation went relatively smoothly, and I didn't question Natsuki's words that Kirigakure would find foreign aid.

After all, it was pointless for Xia Mu to lie at this time. Xia Mu agreed to his request and now he didn't care about the final division of interests.

Now Uchiha is needed to stabilize the Leaf Village, and Itachi and Shisui on the battlefield have become the icing on the cake.

It’s just that Dodai doesn’t know how powerful Kirigakure’s assistance is.

…

Konoha Village.

The Third Hokage received the news.

Orochimaru returned to the village.

And the main entrance is easy to walk through.

The Third Hokage took Kakashi and a group of Anbu behind him to greet Orochimaru at the gate in person.

There were many Konoha villagers nearby, and they came over curiously to check on Orochimaru, one of the Sannin.

Orochimaru was accompanied by Kimimaro, Shiro, Jugo and Kaoru. There was also a person dressed as an ANBU.

Behind him were more than a dozen ninjas without forehead protectors, all of whom were jounin or above in terms of chakra perception.

There was a man in the team who was only in his teens and kept coughing. I don’t know who it is.

This is Orochimaru's entire team.

"Teacher, I'm back."

Orochimaru used his unique hoarse voice to say hello to the Third Hokage.

Different from the last transformation, Orochimaru used his original appearance today.

Orochimaru looked very young because of the previous soul fusion incident. Because he has not done anything for many years, from the outside, Orochimaru, who is a bit thin, has a bookish air.

The Third Hokage looked at Orochimaru's current appearance, as if he had returned to the time when he taught Orochimaru ninjutsu.

Orochimaru also put away his evil charm today and appeared polite.

From the outside, it looks very good.

The Third Hokage was also stunned for a moment, and said half-seriously: "You have suffered a lot these years."

"Now that your grievances have been cleared, you are welcome to go home."

As he spoke, he walked forward and reached out to pat the shoulder of Orochimaru, who was a head taller than him.

"Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get back." Sandai took Orochimaru to the village.

Along the way, many people saw the return of Orochimaru, once one of the three ninjas.

Although Minato had come back to visit before, he still felt a little emotional when he saw these familiar streets and some familiar faces during the day.

Confidence was even more exciting. Orochimaru told him that his illness was not a problem at all, and his brother was still alive.

You can see him after a while.

Before approaching the Hokage Building, the Third Hokage looked at the hesitant figure on the street corner.

"Anko, what are you doing? Why don't you come over and meet your teacher?"

The Third Hokage greeted Anko.

Anko came over, lowering her head and not speaking, nor looking at Orochimaru.

A trace of tenderness flashed in Orochimaru's eyes: "Little Anko, you have grown up."

Anko touched the curse mark that had disappeared on her neck, raised her head and looked at Orochimaru, who looked exactly the same as before.

Qi Qi Ai Ai shouted: "Teacher."

The third generation saw the awkward atmosphere between the two parties and came to smooth things over.

"Hongdou, please help arrange your teacher's residence first. I'll talk to your teacher first."

Orochimaru smiled at Anko and followed the Third Hokage towards the Hokage Building.

After no longer standing with Orochimaru, Anko breathed a sigh of relief and walked up to Shiro.

"Hello, my name is Mitarashi Anko. I will arrange your accommodation. Orochimaru-sensei used to live in..."
