The domineering Uchiha drove the Third Hokage mad!

Chapter 34 Xixiang...6 feet

As dawn broke, the sun rose over the distant mountaintop, and many Konoha ninjas looked up in awe.

January 1st, Konoha Year 49, should have been a joyous day.

But the 2000 Konoha ninja who arrived at Shiratori Castle couldn't smile at all.

Fugaku Uchiha jumped onto a large tree, taking in the devastation of this city of death.

When Uchiha Mitsumine saw the name of Nohara Rin in the list of captured medical personnel, his gaze lingered for a moment.

His voice was as cold as ice: "Reporting to Chief Fugaku, intelligence gathering on personnel within the base is complete. 817 dead, 24 members of the medical team captured, 20 missing, and 139 survivors, 34 of whom are seriously injured."

Fugaku Uchiha did not answer. His gaze fell on a small corpse. The child had been clutching the Konoha headband tightly until his death, his fingers so stiff that they could not be pried open.

The blood-red scratch marks on the city wall show that they had made a futile attempt to climb the high wall to escape.

Uchiha Mitsunori sighed, "Sigh... It seems these people are commoner students who were forced to graduate early; they haven't even learned the technique of using chakra to climb walls."

Suddenly, Uchiha Ryūka appeared in a flash: "Reporting to the clan leader! We've found Hyuga Hiyori's body... It seems he committed suicide after his defeat."

Although Hyuga Hiyori was the commander-in-chief of the Hidden Mist front, he was more of a joke. He commanded more than 3000 Konoha ninja, of whom 2450 were children under the age of 12.

It can be said that he played a tragic role in this war, leading 3000 boy scouts in battle, but his opponents were the bloodthirsty executioners of Kirigakure.

The Hidden Mist battlefield was Uchiha Shisui's peak period. He awakened his three-tomoe Sharingan at the age of 8, excelling in the Phantom Body Flicker Technique and earning the title "Shisui of the Body Flicker Technique." In terms of ocular talent, he was even stronger than Uchiha Itachi. Of course, this is only the surface information. The truth is that Shisui may have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan at the age of 9.

(When Itachi was 8 years old, Obito went to kill his teammates and forced him to awaken the Sharingan. This was likely because Shisui had already awakened the three-tomoe or Mangekyou Sharingan at the age of 8 or 9! Shisui died at the age of 14, so he awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan between the ages of 8 and 14!)

Thinking of this enigmatic child, Uchiha Mitsunori calmly asked, "Is there any news about Shisui?"

"I heard from some survivors that he moved to Nansha City to garrison a few days ago," Uchiha Ryuho replied.

Suddenly, a commotion arose outside the tent. A Chunin, his face covered in blood, rushed in, carrying an unconscious little girl in his arms: "Please! She's still breathing!"

Hyuga Ikki, standing nearby, activated his Byakugan, his gaze sweeping over the wound on the girl's chest where a kunai had pierced her, then looking at the dwindling medical supplies, before slowly closing his eyes.

"This kind of wound is impossible to save unless Tsunade is there."

Having witnessed death many times, Fugaku Uchiha sighed softly, "Execute the original plan. Ryuho, you take 1700 men to escort these survivors and their remains back to Konoha. We'll take 300 men to Nansha Castle to pursue those Hidden Mist ninja."

Uchiha Ryuka knelt on one knee, his headband gleaming coldly in the morning light: "Yes, clan leader."

On the Hidden Mist Village side, seven ninja swords of different shapes were stuck upside down in the cracks of the rocks, their blades reflecting the eerie blue light of the fire.

Tongcao Yeyan slammed his fist into the rock wall, sending pebbles tumbling down.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I never imagined that attacking White Bird City would result in us losing over 700 men!"

Juzo Biwa wrapped his Executioner's Blade in bandages: "I heard that Konoha has signed a peace treaty with Kumogakure. This group of people are from the Kumogakure battlefield. The main members are from Konoha's Ino-Shika-Cho and Inuzuka clans, so it's normal that they are stronger."

The fat face of the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon twisted: "The Land of Fire is really rich. A few days ago, we robbed over 300 billion taels from Bear City. But in White Bird City, we only robbed over 100 billion taels and lost more than 700 people. I think this war was a bit of a loss."

Mushi Jinpachi said somewhat seriously, "If we hadn't captured 24 medical ninjas from Konoha at Shiratori Castle, the Fourth Mizukage would have blamed us for losing over 700 ninjas."

Suigetsu Hozuki's small eyes darted around as he said, "I heard that Uchiha Fugaku defeated Iwagakure, so the war should be over soon. After that, there probably won't be any more opportunities to plunder. I suggest we take advantage of the war to raid Nansha Castle once, what do you think? We could at least steal over 200 billion ryo!"

Black Hoe Raiya smiled wickedly: "We can seize Nansha City, but we need a good battle plan."

Kushimaru Kurishari stroked his chin and said, "I have a suggestion: seal the Three-Tails inside a Konoha medical ninja and then release it back near Nansha City. With the village's sealing techniques, the Three-Tails will be able to escape on its own within half a day. At that time, the Konoha ninjas will have to fight the Three-Tails, and we can take the opportunity to plunder. The casualties will definitely be much less."

After a moment's thought, Kushimaru thought to himself, "I agree with Kushimaru's plan. If we submit it to the Fourth Mizukage, he should agree too!"

Raiga Kurosu looked at the ninja world map: "Sealing the Three-Tails and sending it to the vicinity of Nansha City will take about 12 hours. How about we go deeper into the Land of Fire and make some noise to attract the attention of the Konoha ninjas? That way, when our main force attacks Nansha City, we will encounter much less resistance."

Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon, who loved money, immediately shouted, "I agree!"

The older of the three, Kusanagi, decisively agreed: "Alright, in an hour, we'll infiltrate deep into the Land of Fire to create chaos, disperse Konoha's forces, and also take the opportunity to kill some Konoha ninjas, weakening the village's strength."

......

Within the Land of Fire, the breaths of thirteen-year-old Might Guy, Genma Shiranui, and Ebisu condensed into frost in the cold air.

"Damn it... how did I run into... the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist... these monsters..." Ebisu's hand holding the kunai trembled uncontrollably.

Seven dark figures slowly emerged from the mist.

Kusayama raised his blunt sword, Kabuto: "You brats of Konoha, use your blood to consecrate my sword."

At that very moment, a green figure crashed into the center of the battlefield like a meteor, and the ground beneath his feet was cracking.

He stared wide-eyed at the familiar figure in the green bodysuit!

"Father, you're just a low-ranking ninja, why did you come here?!"

Matt Day didn't turn around, but gave him a thumbs-up, his expression more serious than ever before: "Kai! Take your companions and retreat immediately!"

Ebisu gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Dai, they're the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist! We can't beat them! You need to run!"

"Ebisu, never underestimate a father's determination to protect his children. Now I'll show you the true power of a father!"

(During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Might Guy was only 31 years old when he opened the Eight Gates: Gate of Death. Might Dai is currently around 35 years old, having trained in the Eight Gates for over four years longer than Might Kaido, making him incredibly powerful. However, he only knows taijutsu and not ninjutsu, which is why he's considered a perennial genin.)

(It was precisely because Might Dai risked his life to turn the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist into a trio of heroes that Konoha opened the path to Jonin for Might Guy, a specialist who excelled only in taijutsu. Otherwise, Might Guy would have remained a Genin for his entire life. It can be said that Might Dai paved the way for Might Guy to become a Jonin with his own life!)

Might Guy clenched his fists, his eyes unwavering, and charged toward the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist with a death wish.

"The Eight Gates Formation... Eighth Gate - Gate of Death, open!"

Crimson steam billowed into the sky, and Matt Day's skin began to crack. Kushimaru Kurihara's long sword, Sewing Needle, was the first to strike.

"Xi Xiang...one foot"

Might Dai's fist pierced the air, creating a vacuum shockwave. The longsword Sewing Needle was deflected the instant it touched the shockwave, which then struck Kushimaru Kurihara, crushing his chest.

Might Guy was being dragged back by Genma, but he kept looking back.

He saw his father's figure weaving through the attacks of seven legendary ninja swords, each punch carrying the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.

Might Guy's vision blurred with tears: "Dad's techniques...were so powerful...he wasn't the...useless genin everyone said he was..."

"Xi Xiang...two legs"

Another shockwave struck Kurihara Kushimaru, instantly crushing him into a pile of minced meat.

"Evening Elephant... Three-legged"

Seeing the situation was dire, Suigetsu Hozuki immediately controlled his hair to protect himself. Even so, he was still blasted far away by the shockwave.

"Evening elephant...four legs"

Wuli Jinba wanted to save him, but before the explosive blade could detonate, he was blasted away, crashing through seven large trees before stopping. He spat out a mouthful of blood and lay motionless on the ground.

Seeing that something was wrong, Juzo Biwa and Raiga Kurosuki immediately used Water Instantaneous Movement to escape.

Tongcao Yeren was the slowest of the seven, and knew he couldn't escape.

He then charged in the opposite direction, shouting, "There are real men in Kirigakure who aren't afraid to die!"

"I admire your courage... but this is... my youth... the sunset... five legs... six legs..."

Might Day looked in the direction Might Kay had fled, and their eyes seemed to meet across the distance.

"Kai, your father's life is coming to an end. From now on, you have to walk your own path... Kai, you will always be your father's pride..."

Matt Day, raising his right fist in mid-air... and as usual... gave a thumbs up!

Matt Kay was moved to tears... He responded to his father's gesture... and gave him a thumbs up!
