Chapter 288 Even if There Are Thousands of People, I Will Go Alone
"How many people do you need? I am enough for the Hidden Mist Village.
If anyone violates the border of the Land of Fire, I will defeat him."
Uchiha Wu chuckled, showing his disdain for the Hidden Mist Village.
It is true that the Hidden Mist Village, which has not experienced the Blood Mist Rebellion, has many strong bloodline ninjas, and its mid-to-high-end combat power is enough to compete with Konoha.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the Kizuna Clan, the Ice Release Family, the Kaguya Clan...
But the Hidden Mist Village has a fatal flaw, which is the lack of truly top-level combat power.
The Mizukage Yagura is indeed very strong. He could easily take Uchiha Wu's full-strength attack during the Chunin Exam a few years ago, but that was a thing of the past.
The top powerhouses recognized by the ninja world include the Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki, the Third Raikage, the Third Kazekage, and the Third Hokage.
The only one missing is Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage. His strength is still a little different from that of the other Kages.
I, Uchiha Wu, will definitely beat him!
Apart from the Mizukage, there is only one Three-Tails left in the Hidden Mist Village.
Because of the changes in the world line and the different time, the Hidden Mist Village is isolated from overseas and has relatively closed information. Uchiha Mai is not clear about the current specific situation of the Three-Tails.
Is it in the wild or in the body of a Jinchūriki in the Hidden Mist Village?
In the original plot, there are only two Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails: Nohara Rin and Yagura, but this is not the original plot.
Back then, Hashirama Senju gave the Three-Tails to the Hidden Mist Village. It is impossible that the Hidden Mist Village has not even produced a Jinchūriki in all these years.
But even if there is a Three-Tails or a Three-Tails Jinchūriki, what does it matter?
Still beat it!
The illusion of the Mangekyō Sharingan is a natural counter to the tailed beasts and Jinchūriki. I can destroy a top master on the opposite side with a glare, and maybe even make the opponent turn against me on the spot.
After careful calculation, there is really no one in the Hidden Mist Village who is worthy of Uchiha Mai's concern.
What? Elite Jonin? Isn't that a loser who can be killed with one sword?
Sarutobi Hiruzen was very pleased with the heroism displayed by Uchiha Mai, and he was indeed a rare genius in Konoha.
One of the five major ninja villages, one person rejected it, how heroic is that? He has some of my style in the past.
"I have already felt your confidence and courage.
I firmly believe that under your leadership, the Konoha troops will be able to keep the Kirigakure troops out and make them return empty-handed."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was very pleased, patted Uchiha Mai on the shoulder, and said kindly: "But war is not a joke after all.
The words of confidence just now should be discussed in private, and not when there are many people.
Otherwise, if some people take it seriously, they will use the empty words of one person to resist the enemy against you. Even if you really lead the troops to win the battle, you will lose face more or less.
How about this, Konoha still has 3,000 soldiers who can fight.
I will shamelessly go to the daimyo to ask for more material support, so that more ninjas can be freed from the mission.
I can squeeze in 4,000 people for you, which should be enough to resist the Kirigakure in a short period of time."
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt quite painful.
After sending out this wave of troops, Konoha really has no trump card. If it can't hold off the four major ninja villages, it can only wait for death or use some taboo means.
For example, learn the Impure World Reincarnation, pull out the two Hokage of Kobaku, and fight against the Raikage and drag him to death together...
But this is a means that will only be considered when the end of the road.
Ren Senju Tobirama also has something to say. When my eldest brother was the boss, the four major ninja villages didn't dare to fart loudly. Konoha stood out in the entire ninja world, and it was just short of hitting the moon and being the boss of the moon.
After my eldest brother died, the four major ninja villages attacked Konoha together. I fucked the water escape, forbidden technique, and flying thunder god, and they were all blocked.
Why are you so bad now that you have to call us out of hell?
If it really comes to that, then Sarutobi Hiruzen will really be the sinner of Konoha, and he will be ashamed to face his ancestors, in short, the faceless ancestor.
Fortunately, we still have a good baby like Uchiha Mai.
"Four thousand people?" Uchiha Mai frowned.
Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Uchiha Mai didn't seem very satisfied, and felt a little unhappy. He frowned and said, "Four thousand people are not a small number.
This is the maximum number of troops that Konoha can currently mobilize.
Mai, I know this is the first time you are truly independent. I can understand that you want to be safe, but Konoha really can't spare more people for you."
"Hokage, I think you misunderstood me."
Uchiha Mai shook his head slightly, raised a finger, and said calmly: "To resist the Hidden Mist Village, I am enough.
Special statement, I am not kidding."
"Hiss~" Sarutobi Hiruzen took a breath.
I thought I was just saying polite words, but I didn't expect...Mai, are you serious?
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly, "Except for the Hidden Mist Village, all the big ninja villages in the ninja world have been involved in the war.
This means that the Hidden Mist Village has no worries.
The entire village of the Hidden Mist Village has about 10,000 ninjas. Excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, the number of troops they can mobilize is about 4,000 to 10,000.
In extreme cases, you may have to fight 10,000 against 10,000.
Since the Shodaime and Uchiha Madara, no one has been able to do this.
Sama Tobirama and Minato may be able to escape unscathed when facing 10,000, but they definitely cannot hold back 10,000.
The Third Raikage might be able to hold back 10,000 people, but he definitely can't win the battle. No one, no Kage can do this.
Even if it is a conservative estimate, you have to face at least 4,000 enemies. This is a little easier than fighting one against 10,000, but it is also not something that ordinary people can do. "
For ordinary Kages, fighting one against a thousand is enough, after all, the enemy is not standing there waiting for you to kill them.
You throw a large-scale ninjutsu, and the enemy is scattered, so it can't achieve the most ideal effect. Killing nearly a dozen ninjas is already the limit.
"No one has done it since the First Generation and Uchiha Madara, that's just because they are not strong enough.
I will be the third ninja who has the ability to do this after them. "
Uchiha Mai is full of confidence.
In a one-on-one duel, Uchiha Mai believes that she can fight the Third Raikage 64 or even 73. In a group battle, Uchiha Mai believes that she can beat the Third Raikage.
Uchiha Mai has all the killing ability, speed, defense, AOE, defense, vitality, and endurance.
Group battles have always been what he is best at.
In the original plot, the Third Raikage, who lacked AOE and endurance, was beaten to death by 10,000 people.
Today, I, Uchiha Mai, can fight 10,000 people alone, no problem.
Seeing Uchiha Mai so determined and confident, Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little confused.
In his impression, although Uchiha Mai was very arrogant when facing Danzo recently, in the past few years, he has always been a person who has the ability to fight. He likes to plan before he acts when he has control over something.
He would never say that when he is not strong enough, he would provoke an enemy that he cannot defeat for the sake of face and other non-existent things.
But today he said that he is confident that he can fight ten thousand alone. He must have gained some power or been able to get some helpers to dare to say such a big thing.
He suddenly gained some power...
Sarutobi Hiruzen was slightly startled, his pupils shrank slightly, could it be the legendary Mangekyō Sharingan?
Uchiha Mai's strength improved very quickly, but he still insisted on rationality. If it were not for the mutation of his eyes, he would not be able to obtain the combat power comparable to that of the Kage of the Village.
At the age of twelve, his strength has once again improved significantly, so there is only one possibility...
"You, awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan? "Sarutobi Hiruzen asked tentatively.
Uchiha Mai said nothing and silently opened the Consciousness Only Mangekyō Sharingan.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at the pair of dark purple eyes with patterns that were obviously different from the ordinary three-magatama eyes with astonishment, and took a dozen breaths of cold air.
This is definitely the Mangekyō Sharingan!
As the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew a lot of secrets of Konoha, including the Uchiha brothers' record before the village was built, and Senju Tobirama's research on the Sharingan...
The Mangekyō Sharingan can be called an invincible eye.
Sarutobi Hiruzen still remembered that when he was young, his teacher Senju Tobirama had given him There is a story like this:
The Uchiha brothers, each with a Gundam, chopped from the Land of Wind to the Land of Earth, and from the Land of Earth to the Land of Lightning.
They chopped down half of the ninja world with their swords, without closing their eyes for three days and three nights.
Only the two Senju brothers, who were also outstanding people, could compete with Uchiha Madara and Izuna.
At that time, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked: They chopped for three days and three nights without closing their eyes, wouldn’t their eyes be sore? And after opening Susanoo for so long, their Sharingan would have been scrapped long ago.
But all he got was Senju Tobirama’s: I’m telling you How invincible and uncontrollable the Mangekyō Sharingan is, how bloodthirsty the people who awakened the Mangekyō are.
But you ask me if their eyes are sore?
In short, the story told by Senju Tobirama may be a little exaggerated, but Sarutobi Hiruzen still remembers the power of the Mangekyō in his heart.
Invincible Eyes.
Sarutobi Hiruzen finally understood why Uchiha Mai was so confident. I have the Mangekyō, will I lose?
Uchiha Mai stood silently aside, waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen's answer, not caring about exposing the Mangekyō.
The trump card is to be used.
Since the system was launched, whether it is to win or lose, What abilities, physical skills, dead fire, swordsmanship, twisted magic eyes, Uchiha Mai has never concealed.
I have the strength, so I have the right to speak.
I said that it is reasonable for me to obtain these abilities, then it is reasonable, you have to believe it even if you don't believe it, if you have the guts, you can kill me.
This time against the Kirigakure, the Mangekyō must be used.
Only by using the Mangekyō and playing a record that suffocates the entire ninja world can you harvest a lot of fashion points and achieve a virtuous cycle.
Only the system can't be exposed.
"You have awakened the Mangekyō, maybe you can really fight against ten thousand with one."
Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated for a long time, and finally made a decision that went against his ancestors, saying: "Since you have such determination, then I will give you this opportunity.
This time against Kirigakure, I won't arrange a large force for you. I think you still need a follower force of dozens or hundreds of people.
Even if you are strong, there is no need to do everything yourself. Small things such as gathering intelligence and transmitting intelligence can be left to others. "
Uchiha Mai thought, that's right.
What if the Kirigakure army doesn't want to fight him head-on and wants to play hide-and-seek?
Send troops to find out their relevant information, and then kill them after finding them, which can save a lot of effort.
Bringing a hundred pendants will not affect the value of one against ten thousand. No one really thinks that pendants count as people, right?
Moreover, carrying some pendants will also help his leeks gain fashion value.
In fantasy novels, every time the protagonist shows off, there will be passers-by and onlookers present, all kinds of shock and dumbfounded.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not show off for no one. If no one sees it, then the show is meaningless.
I was careless. My realm is still not high enough. I only thought about the value of fighting one against ten thousand, but forgot the important knowledge point that the protagonist should have as many witnesses as possible when showing off.
"Okay, then I will select some ninjas from the family, the Anbu, and the village under the pretext of investigating the southern intelligence, and go with me."
Uchiha Mai nodded slightly.
It must be a pretext for the investigation mission, otherwise if I say I will take you to fight the entire Kirigakure, I am afraid that not many people are willing to go on this mission.
"Well, this reason is very good.
By the way, take Yamato with him and let him see the world."
Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded him again. He still had expectations that Konoha should not have.
Konoha's most outstanding Uchiha has awakened the Mangekyō. What if Yamato is stimulated and suddenly becomes as powerful as the Shodaime?
What if?
After Uchiha Mai left, Sarutobi Hiruzen slumped on the sofa with his eyes closed, muttering: "This is trouble."
If you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries. Uchiha Mai's awakening of the Mangekyō can certainly solve Konoha's urgent needs. But in the long run, Sarutobi Hiruzen would rather Uchiha Mai not open his eyes.
Sarutobi Hiruzen believes that he can't fight ten thousand with one, and he also believes that no one in the current ninja world can do it.
If Uchiha Mai can do it, it means that he will definitely be out of control and may get involved in the position of Hokage in the future.
That's right, Uchiha Mai is aiming for Hokage, and Sarutobi Hiruzen knew it a long time ago.
How many people in Konoha don't want to be Hokage?
Uchiha Mai will fight and win every battle. He made his attitude clear from the beginning: I will compete for the position of Hokage with fair means, and use military exploits that surpass everyone to take back what we Uchiha should have.
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want someone from the Uchiha clan to be Hokage, after all, Tobirama Senju had watched Uchiha to death.
It was a bit of a betrayal for his student to let an Uchiha take the position.
Of course, if he really couldn't suppress it, it would be okay to let Uchiha Mai be the Hokage. After all, it was only one term, and he could retreat to the position of assistant to the Hokage.
In the original plot, when the master of the sect was the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen retreated to the position of assistant to the Hokage, and at the same time he still controlled the Anbu.
When Kakashi was ordered to protect the pregnant Kushina, he said clearly: The Anbu managed by the Sandaime had other tasks to perform, so Kakashi was responsible for secretly protecting Kushina.
The biggest disadvantage of female Jinchūriki is that the sealing effect will be reduced to the lowest point during childbirth.
The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the Hokage's wife, when she was pregnant and giving birth, had only one jonin as a bodyguard, which was somewhat cheap.
From this, we can also see that when the master served as Hokage, he actually did not have much power. At least in the early days of his tenure, the third generation did not completely hand over the power.
The master of the Anbu directly under the Hokage could not be transferred, which was outrageous.
The first and second generations had the final say, and the third generation did not completely hand over the power after his abdication, which led to the fourth generation to consult the third generation when mobilizing troops.
Then by the fifth generation, it was back to the state where the top leader had absolute say.
It seemed familiar.
