Konoha: Uchiha Extremists? Offering Loyalty!

Chapter 107: The Momentum of All Parties, the Alliance Between Sunagakure and Iwagakure?

Medical camp.

Yuuki is studying the circulation pathways of chakra within his body.

The chakra refining method that has been passed down through generations is the first step on the path of a ninja and the foundation for the birth of chakra.

If we improve or optimize it, will a 'basic divine tree' be born?

At that moment, Orochimaru pushed open the door and walked in.

"Yuki-kun, thank you for sharing." He sat on the hospital bed and put down a copy of "Speculations on Warfare in the New Era".

"I find the speculations about new combat methods to be very insightful."

“Yes.” Yuuki said with feeling, “Lord Orochimaru, I think the village’s concept of the ninja force has remained at the level of warring clans and families, and has not changed. This is very wrong.”

Orochimaru's gaze, filled with interest, fell on Yuuki, and after a long while he sighed, "Yuuki-kun, you really don't seem like an Uchiha ninja."

"Lord Orochimaru, do you have any stereotypes about the Uchiha clan?" Yuuki asked with his standard smile.

After a brief chat, the two quickly got into a discussion, lamenting the changing situation in the ninja world and the war.

He vehemently criticized Mitokado.

Yuuki: "Elder Mitomon's strategy is far too hesitant. It's not something a commander who holds the lives of thousands should do!"

Mitomon Iroha, in command of the war, neither advanced nor retreated.

They lacked the resolve to fight to the death, yet were unwilling to give up.

Hesitant and indecisive on the battlefield, they fabricated and misled reports after the battle.

Konoha's crushing defeat was entirely reasonable.

Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh, "That old guy is even worse than the former support Shimura Danzo."

Danzo Shimura's command was perhaps equally inadequate.

But he's ruthless enough!

In order to wear down or even defeat the enemy, he might even use the lives of his subordinates as bait to lure the enemy into a decisive battle, forcing them to fight to the death by exchanging heads!

This fighting style is reckless, but it can make up for the tactical gap between Konoha and the enemy village.

After discussing the ninja world, the two smoothly transitioned to the topic of ninjutsu.

Orochimaru is determined to learn all the ninjutsu in the ninja world, and he enjoys exchanging ideas with the free-thinking Yuuki.

The two mainly discussed the development of new ninjutsu and new discoveries about antidote stinging ants!

"If the guess is true, it would be a groundbreaking discovery that would shock the ninja world!"

Orochimaru licked his lips in circles.

His eyes widened with excitement, his lips curled into a slight smile, and his whole body trembled slightly.

Even someone as composed as Orochimaru lost his composure somewhat.

"Who would have thought that the mouthparts of an antidote ant, combined with the release of neutralizing toxins, could be torn open and injected into a fixed location, thereby expanding the channels for chakra circulation!"

On a blank table, Yuuki spread out a complex diagram with intricate patterns and invited Orochimaru to admire it together.

He said with a hint of regret, "The calculations on paper can only go this far. Further development will probably require live experiments."

The two looked at each other and fell silent.

They were well aware that live experimentation had always been a taboo topic in the village.

In particular, the second generation conducted research on the first generation of cells.

After being sealed, human experiments with the first-generation cells were strictly prohibited.

As the third generation came to power, the ban gradually evolved into a ban on live human experimentation.

In the field of medical ninjutsu, the restrictions on human experimentation have been lifted.

But that's about it.

To study the dynamics of operation, one must use living organisms, specifically living organisms that cooperate.

For Orochimaru, cooperation was not a problem.

With his 'Will of the Serpent' and 'Snake Uncle' charm, he was enough to attract a lot of fans in Konoha.

The problem lies in the village's perspective.

"Live experiments?"

Orochimaru's eyes were dark. He took a long breath and then inhaled, as if some peculiar emotion was brewing in his heart.

Yuuki sensed Orochimaru's change in emotion and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

That's it!

Snake's interest was completely ignited!

...

Command Center.

"Yuuki, you damned Orochimaru! I have urgent intelligence! Where have you two been?!"

Tsunade rubbed her slightly dry, yellow hair, her eyes seemingly blazing with fire, and slammed her other hand heavily on the table, demanding angrily.

You brat, you were just slacking off with Orochimaru and didn't even call me!

"Hi!"

Yuuki took a step back, shielding Orochimaru in front of him.

"I'm sorry, Lady Tsunade, I've been at the medical camp. Lord Orochimaru came to chat, and in the process, I lost track of time..."

Orochimaru subtly stepped to the side, revealing Yuuki in full to Tsunade.

"Tsunade, I'm studying command tactics. There aren't many wounded recently, so the medical camp isn't that busy."

broken.

Yuuki gasped. "Snake-kun, you've changed!"

Where did you go, the one who used to silently take the blame?

They've actually learned to shift the blame!

Orochimaru gave him a look, "Thank you for sharing your knowledge!"

"Alright!" Tsunade vented briefly, then her expression turned serious. "The situation has changed! According to intelligence from the front lines, Sunagakure and Iwagakure seem to be inclined to form an alliance. According to Jiraiya's intelligence, the two sides have exchanged goods several times within the Land of Stone."

Upon hearing this information, Yuuki showed no surprise whatsoever.

Where have we even begun?

During the Second Shinobi World War, Konoha might face an attack from three or even four villages!

In particular, the Land of Whirlpools was not destroyed as originally planned, and the Senju clan did not suffer excessive losses on the battlefield in the Land of Rain.

The likelihood of Kirigakure participating in the siege of Konoha has increased significantly!

"Lady Tsunade, are there any signs that Amegakure is forming an alliance? We definitely don't have enough manpower to face the three villages. We must report to the villages and request some support."

The tacit understanding reached between Mito Uzumaki and Hiruzen Sarutobi was private and not publicly stated.

Yuuki was unaware that the village would not send additional ninjas to the Rain Defense Line; only ninjas from the Senju or Uchiha clans could come to support them.

The Uchiha clan has been confined to the police department and is not allowed to leave except for major events, thus preventing them from supporting the Rain Defense Line.

The pressure then fell on the Senju clan.

"There is no news from the Land of Rain yet," Tsunade said seriously. "Since Hanzo declared war on the three villages, he has not only not launched an attack, but has instead retreated to Amegakure."

"Nobody knows whether he's plotting something or if there's an internal problem."

Tsunade spread out a map and pointed to two small countries bordering Konoha.

"The village is separated from Iwagakure by the Land of Grass and the Land of Waterfall, and from Sunagakure by the Land of River. The three villages are separated from each other by the Land of Rain."

"In order to defend against attacks from Sunagakure and Iwagakure, the village gathered its troops from various outposts and re-established the Sunagakure and Iwagakure defense lines."

"I'm afraid we don't have enough manpower to support us?"

Yuki opened his mouth, then hesitated and asked, "Is the village willing to send police officers to provide support?"

Tsunade chuckled coldly, "How could that be?"

Defending against the Uchiha clan is equivalent to defending against enemy villages.

This is a family motto passed down from my second grandfather.

The Third Hokage always regarded this as the truth, and even if he won over Uchiha Tomonari's heart, it would not stop him from being wary of the Uchiha!
