Shikaku said with a wry smile, "Lady Tsunade, the number of ninjas in our Konoha is around 16,000."
Although Konoha has developed at an extremely rapid pace under Genba's leadership over the years.
However, this development also has its pace.
It's impossible for them to surpass the other four villages by a wide margin all at once.
This is clearly an unrealistic question.
Upon hearing the number "16,000," everyone couldn't help but smile wryly.
If it were just a fight against a single village, Konoha would have no fear whatsoever.
But he was fighting four against one.
It is still extremely difficult.
However, Gen Ye's expression remained completely calm. He was the pillar of Konoha, and if he panicked, the people below would completely scatter and have no chance at all.
then.
Genye said, "In fact, war cannot be measured solely by the number of people. Our Konoha has many elite ninjas, as well as bloodline clans such as the Uchiha and Hyuga. If we work together, it is not impossible for us to defeat four villages."
"Besides, you still have me!"
Towards the end.
A powerful aura emanated from Xuan Ye.
Suddenly, everyone remembered.
The Hokage in front of me possesses powerful bloodline limits such as Wood Release and Susanoo.
It's probably just him.
They waited for the team of several thousand people to break through.
Genye looked around at everyone and then continued, "Now is a time of life and death for Konoha. I know that behind the scenes, the major families may have some conflicts, but I hope that in this war, everyone can put aside their past grievances, unite as one, and work together to defeat the enemy."
"If I find out that someone is secretly causing trouble, I will not let them get away with it!"
Xuan Ye's eyes flashed with coldness; if anyone dared to cause trouble, he would certainly not let them off the hook.
then.
Genye turned his gaze to Shikaku and asked, "Advisor Shikaku, the enemy's four groups are about to arrive. What do you think we should do to deal with them? Tell me your thoughts."
After a moment of contemplation, Shikaku said, "Lord Hokage, although the four great villages do have a large population, the strength of their ninjas is far inferior to that of our Konoha. On the other hand, they have also recruited many wandering ninjas, who are not loyal to them and are only after money, so they cannot form an effective fighting force."
"Therefore, I think we can divide our Konoha forces into four columns based on the strength of the four great hidden villages."
"For example, the first column, responsible for resisting the ninjas of Sunagakure, can be arranged with 3,000 people, led by Captain Kakashi. Since the parasitic insects of the Aburame clan are relatively effective against puppeteers, the Aburame clan can be included as well."
"The second column, led by the Fugaku clan chief, will consist of 4,000 men, along with the Uchiha and Akimichi clans, to defend against the attack from Iwa."
"The third column, led by Jiraiya-sama, consists of four thousand men and is tasked with resisting the Cloud Village."
"The fourth column, led by the clan chief Hiashi, is equipped with three thousand men to resist Kirigakure."
"The remaining two thousand men, led by Lady Tsunade, will form a mobile force that can provide immediate support and deal with any emergencies that may arise on the battlefield."
Shikaku shared his thoughts, earning the admiration of many ninjas.
No one expected this.
The other party was able to do it in such a short time.
They came up with such a brilliant opportunity.
However, Genye said, "Advisor Shikaku, it seems you haven't included me in this list?"
"Lord Hokage, you mustn't! You are the pillar of Konoha's spirit. If something happens to you, Konoha will surely crumble!" Shikaku hurriedly advised. He knew that Genba was always at the forefront. Although he was very strong, it was better to strategize from a broader perspective.
Tsunade also said, "Hokage-sama, please think it over!"
The people around them tried to persuade him.
Xuan Ye waved his hand, and everyone quieted down. Then he said, "How about this, put me in the mobile unit. If any of the units encounter danger, I can provide support immediately."
"Lord Hokage..."
Xuan Ye interrupted the others' persuasion again, and then calmly said, "This matter is settled."
End of the meeting.
Tsunade did not leave, but instead came to Genba's side.
After a period of hard work, we have finally developed ten more bottles of gene reagents.
With the first success...
The speeds afterward were all much faster.
In addition, a lot of Xuan Ye's blood was drawn recently, which is why so many gene reagents were able to be produced so quickly. At this critical moment, it has been a great help to Xuan Ye.
Genye stepped forward, grasped Tsunade's small hand firmly, and said with gratitude, "Thank you, Lady Tsunade."
Tsunade blushed slightly at Genba's intimate gesture, and her body trembled slightly as she recalled their intimate encounter that day.
After saying goodbye to Tsunade, Genba first returned to his residence.
Yukito was in a bad mood, which meant he had obviously found out something.
That makes sense.
Konoha now resembles a scene from before the war.
Yukito isn't stupid; she must know something.
She looked at Xuan Ye, sighed deeply, and then said, "Is war about to break out?"
Genye grunted and said, "The four great villages have sent nearly 40,000 ninjas to wage war against Konoha. I have no choice but to retaliate."
What hurt Yugito the most was that she thought she could ease the tension between the two villages by staying in Konoha. However, she overestimated her importance and clearly underestimated her position in the eyes of Raikage A.
Looking at Yukito's sorrowful face, Genye sighed softly, walked over, and hugged her. Yukito began to sob softly, clearly heartbroken and unwilling to accept that this had happened.
but.
War is cruel.
It's unrealistic for Xuan Ye to show mercy to the Cloud Village and its people just because of the other party.
Therefore, Genba will not make any promises to Yugito.
However, even though Yugito is a powerful Two-Tails Jinchuriki, Genba would not let her fight against her own kind, which is still very humane.
Not long after.
A knock came at the door.
To Xuan Ye's surprise, it turned out to be Naruto and Sasuke who came.
Naruto waved his fist and said, "Brother Genba, I heard that four villages are going to war with Konoha. I want to go to the battlefield too!"
His tone was very firm.
Their desire to protect Konoha is extremely strong.
After this period of training, Naruto can now use some of the Nine-Tails' power, up to a maximum of four tails.
His strength has reached the level of a Jonin.
“Yes, Brother Genye, let’s go to the battlefield together.” Sasuke’s gaze was also firm, wanting to protect the village.
However, Genye shook his head and refused, saying, "You two have not yet graduated from ninja studies. Although you are quite strong, you have not experienced the baptism of war. Going to the battlefield would be very dangerous for you, so I refuse your proposal."
The two wanted to argue, but Genye interrupted them, saying, "With me here, Konoha will be fine!"
Hearing Xuan Ye's persistence, the two were helpless.
It was soon afternoon.
Genye arrived at Konoha Square.
now.
The place was already overcrowded, with around 16,000 ninjas gathered here.
Xuan Ye looked at everyone, knowing full well that war is cruel and that a large number of people here might not be able to return alive from this war.
He raised his hand, and the audience instantly fell silent. He said:
"Konoha has always loved peace, but Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Kirigakure have gathered their forces and launched a war against Konoha, seemingly aiming to destroy it."
"For the sake of my family and friends, I am willing to fight to the death with everyone to resist the invasion of other villages."
"Let us all unite and fight together! Konoha will surely win!"
"Konoha will win!"
"Konoha will win!"
"Konoha will win!"
The Fourth Shinobi World War has begun!
Chapter 201 The Kaleidoscope Shows Its Power! (Please Subscribe!)
The Fourth Shinobi World War has quietly begun.
The ninja from Konoha's four squads have all set off for the battlefield.
Genba, as a member of the mobile unit, did not have his first opportunity to participate.
However, if he encounters a formidable opponent, Xuan Ye can use the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to reach the battlefield immediately.
That's right.
Genye gave each of the four squad leaders a specially made wooden kunai engraved with the "Flying Thunder God" mark.
Genye can appear immediately whenever he is threatened.
Similar to the previous annihilation of Hiruko.
Moreover, Genba possessed a fully formed Susanoo and quickly flew towards Champa.
Inside Nanga Shrine.
Nowadays.
Genba summoned the top Uchiha members to discuss something.
For example, Yashiro, Yukino, Inahisa, Tetsuka, Kinmo, etc.
Although the war has begun, Xuan Ye did not send them to the battlefield immediately. The war is in its initial stages, and all sides are testing each other, so he will not send all his troops at once. After these people have strengthened their abilities, they will play a more important role.
Yashiro looked at Genba and asked with some confusion, "Lord Hokage, what is the purpose of keeping us here?"
Everyone knew that Xuan Ye wouldn't keep them here unless there was a special reason.
After glancing around at everyone, Xuan Ye spoke in a calm voice:
"I have a way to help everyone awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, but not everyone will succeed, although the probability is quite high."
"what?"
Upon hearing Genba's words, the Uchiha members all showed expressions of shock.
After the three-tomoe jade pendant.
It's a kaleidoscope.
This is the ultimate dream that every Uchiha clan member has always longed for.
However, awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan is easier said than done.
Currently, among the vast Uchiha clan, only Genba, Fugaku, Shisui, and Itachi have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.
This shows how difficult it is to open one's eyes.
Although Yashiro really wanted to ask about the truth of the matter, he thought that Genba was just making things up, so he swallowed the words he wanted to ask.
Looking at everyone, Xuan Ye said, "Who among you wants to be number one?"
"I'll go first!" The Eighth Hokage's prestige within the Uchiha clan was only slightly lower than Fugaku's, and his strength was also formidable, having already reached the level of an elite Jonin.
