Chapter 361: The Eye-Catching Plan and the Wood Release of the Sealed Book
Children in this world are generally precocious. So precocious was Itachi, who was only four years old, that was taken to the battlefield by his father.
Roars and blood intertwined, in the final war between Konoha and Iwagakure, the meaning of life began to sprout from the depths of Itachi's heart.
Such philosophical questions are actually not a bad thing, but the prerequisite is that the person thinking about this question is not a child and his experience and knowledge reserves are not so scarce.
And precisely because of the existence of chakra, this world has achieved extraordinary individual power, and the mind has never awakened for thousands of years.
Even Hashirama Senju, who possessed power comparable to that of a god in the Warring States Period, still made the economy dependent on the daimyo's mansion when he established the ninja village system, and the identity and power of Yu still belonged to the daimyo.
So... this four-year-old child has gradually developed distorted thoughts due to confusion about the meaning of life.
……
The conversation with Uchiha Fugaku did not last long, and in the class the next day, Kevin frowned as he looked at the only nine Uchiha children below.
Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Izumi, these two are the new generation that appeared in memory.
But even with these two people included, the number of moderate factions behind the new generation of Uchiha or these children, who represent the backbone of the younger generation of Uchiha... is too small.
"Then let's start the class now. In the first period, we will talk about the history of the Warring States Period."
……
Time passed quickly. Three months had passed and the ninja world was still as peaceful as before.
But beneath the undercurrent, many things have changed.
The Rain Country has become a commercial and trade center, and the safe and relatively fair trading environment has become a habit for many caravans.
At the same time, the first batch of crops from the experimental fields in the Land of Rain has already produced results.
Hanzo, who had once suffered from hunger, stood at the door of the warehouse for a whole day.
Similarly, Kurosan, Naoki, Shirayuki, Hongyun and others who were born as war orphans had moist eyes, as if they saw their former selves no longer starving.
The companions who died at that time also appeared one by one in their memories.
……
School No. 1 in the Rain Country.
There are no students here at this time. The area and population of the Rain Country cannot accommodate so many teachers.
But this once simple school has now shown signs of becoming the political center of the Rain Country.
"gentlemen."
"Now that the results are out and the production data comparison has been sent to the research institute... let's start promoting it on a large scale."
Kevin said as he looked at Hanzo, "In addition, all regions of the Rain Country will once again notify merchants to hold a meeting. The prices of basic needs such as food and salt must be determined by the Government Affairs Office."
Hanzo was a little confused, and Orochimaru beside him was also a little puzzled.
"In the past, we restricted food prices to prevent them from rising, which would cause ordinary people to starve to death because they could not afford them."
"Now that the improved seeds and fertilizers have been distributed, the grain output of the Rain Country in the second half of this year is foreseeable. Even if we sell it to merchants, we can make a lot of money..."
Kevin waited for him to finish, looked at the two of them, stood up and said, "Our goal is to change this world? Or to change the Rain Country?"
Just this one sentence made the two of them understand.
The limitations of past thinking still shackle them, and what they think is still within the confines of one country, not the world.
Hanzo bowed slightly: "I understand."
Orochimaru licked his lips and said, "Sir, have you been teaching in Konoha all this time? It seems that the Fourth Hokage will become a comrade in the future."
Kevin nodded: "I will be his introducer. As for the ideological assessment, I will take the test together with the current batch of students I teach."
Orochimaru smiled and said, "Because after the war, the village needs a gentle Hokage. The old man's choice will save us a lot of trouble in the Fire Country."
"But Namikaze Minato... in the end, is he willing to give up the power in his hands?"
"Since the founding of Konoha, too many people have risked their lives for that position. When the old man came back from the battlefield, not everyone was willing to listen to the second generation's will and support him..."
At this time, sunlight shines in from the window.
Kevin's voice was firm: "When the people have the power to resist, when ignorance has gained enough knowledge, and the seeds of thought have taken root in their hearts... no one can stop the dawn."
……
Konoha is on its way to the Land of Rain.
Because Uchiha Obito, who has become a jonin with the Sharingan, together with the chuunin Nohara Rin and temporary team member Uchiha Yoshizawa, the three-person team accepted a B-level mission to escort a caravan to the Land of Rain.
"Uncle, why are all the escort missions for Mr. Caravan to the Rain Country? In recent months, the destinations have all been the border."
The middle-aged man driving the car smiled and said, "Because there are the most reasonable prices and the safest environment. The war is over, but the danger for us has increased."
Obito nodded when he heard this: "Too many people died in the war, and many who could not survive became bandits. In addition, there are some ninjas who gave up their missions and became rebels. They still need to survive after the war is over."
live...
The middle-aged man looked a little strange.
In their eyes, bandits and rebel ninjas are all unforgivable sinners.
But in order to survive, there is some truth to it.
"But it is always wrong to rob a caravan. If you use power to get what you want, power will eventually become part of the darkness."
Obito's words stunned the middle-aged man.
Nohara Rin on the side felt a little emotional because many of Obito's words came from that gentleman.
In just a few months, the gentleman's lectures in the Uchiha clan had already attracted quite a few students.
Among them... is Hokage-sama.
"It's ridiculous to be considerate of those people!"
Uchiha Yoshizawa, his temporary teammate, snorted coldly: "Without power and money to entrust missions, you deserve to be robbed. Those rebel ninja bandits also deserve to be killed. In this world, strength is everything."
Hearing this, Nohara Lin frowned.
The bandit rebel ninja deserved to be killed, as their escort mission itself was hostile to these two.
But the middle-aged man in the caravan said that the increase in these groups after the war is also a problem that needs to be considered.
Life fears death, but will is above death.
Ambition, desire, and war are the sources of all this.
Even though killing is necessary, isn't it more important to solve the root of the problem from the source?
Obito ignored the tribe member's disdain.
As they continued to move forward until they were half a day away from leaving the border of the Land of Fire, Obito raised his hand.
The middle-aged man who had been following Obito hurriedly asked the caravan to stop.
"No."
Obito glanced at Uchiha Yoshizawa behind him, thought for a moment and said, "There is still half a day left, so we won't rest, let's speed up and head to the border of the Rain Country."
……
The caravan moved forward again. Because of Obito's words, the middle-aged man who was in charge of the caravan made some guesses.
Finally, they cancelled the rest stop and headed for the Land of Rain without stopping.
As long as we enter the Rain Country, everything will be safe with the escort there.
Even if the goods are damaged, the Rain Country will compensate according to the price.
……
The escort mission was completed after entering the border of the Rain Country. In the last half day, there was only one group of bandits attacking, who fled after losing three people.
The three-man team then returned to Konoha.
However, as soon as they entered the forest, Obito stopped and pulled Nohara Rin behind him.
"Uchiha Yoshizawa, I don't understand."
"what?"
"I don't understand, as a fellow clan member, you left the mark to deal with me? In that case, the person who helped you is also Uchiha?" As soon as the words fell, a series of sounds of breaking through the air were heard.
The kunai were tied with detonating tags and all attacked Obito.
The next moment, ripples appeared in the space.
Nohara Rin was directly pulled into a different space by Obito, and her whole body was in a virtual state.
"Boom boom boom..."
There was an explosion, but Obito was not hurt at all.
"So what are you guys doing? Ninja games?"
Under the mask, three magatama are connected, and the Mangekyō Sharingan seems to come from hell.
Even Lin was included in the attack.
Therefore, we didn't intend to let them live from the beginning. The reason why we took action after the escort mission was completed was to reduce the mission completion rate and the number of people who knew about it.
And the target...is obviously this eye.
The sun shines through the dense leaves.
Under refraction, steel wires crisscrossed and covered the entire area.
"tumultuous……"
Fire Style: Great Fire Dragon Technique.
The flame is guided by a steel wire, and the intense heat burns the entire area.
At the same time, a barrier was extended all around, and strands of magic came towards Obito from all directions.
"Sealing technique, it's really a terrifying preparation."
"But the information you know is what I showed you on purpose, isn't it?"
The moment the words fell, the trees that were burned by the flames seemed to come alive, with roots entwined all around.
The steel wire was cut, and the tribesmen who were set up in the barrier were bound and locked one by one, and the magic disappeared into nothingness before it could be performed on them.
Obito sighed. This Wood Release was very different from what was recorded in the Book of Seals.
At the same time, exclamations were heard.
"Wood... Wood Dun!"
"How can it be!"
"This is the Wood Release of the Senju clan. How could an Uchiha like him possess such power?"
"Elder! Save me!"
"Damn it! This bastard isn't even an Uchiha!"
"This is a conspiracy of the Hokage, a conspiracy!"
"Escape quickly, elders! You must! You must bring this information back. The Uchiha cannot die like this!"
……
Uchiha Tian swung his sword and cut off the branches in front of him.
Just as he was about to retreat, a figure appeared behind him.
Reach out and shoot.
"Boom."
The tree exploded from his shoulders, freezing him in place in a bloody mess.
"In fact, there are many powers that can break the impasse, such as the ability information I showed you on purpose. But I think... there should be nothing that can make you more afraid than Wood Release."
Obito looked at the tribesmen around him.
He was bombarded with abuse, but it was clear he didn't care.
"No one wants the Uchiha to perish, but your actions may eventually make this clan unable to see the dawn of the future."
Uchiha Tian endured the pain and looked up at Obito: "You bastard who betrayed your clan, with the power of Senju, you are not worthy of the Uchiha family name."
Obito exhaled, and then inserted a kunai directly into his heart.
"My teacher and I both said that extremism can also be a form of strength, but I think that definitely doesn't include you."
The clan elder was killed directly, but this scene did not scare others, but made the curses even louder.
Obito looked at everyone: "So... your logic is that I can't resist? I should just stand still and give you this eye?"
"Or... the teacher should not resist, because you are one of the founders of the village, so the village should be handed over to you obediently?"
"What a weird logic."
As he said this, Obito walked up to one of the Uchiha jonin.
"You don't know the history, and you don't know the whole story of the glory of the Uchiha. Just because of this surname, you have such courage."
"You claim to be the founder of Konoha, but your actions have taken you away from the village. Your former pride has become a burden to the Uchiha, but you still don't notice it, and are still as proud as a peacock spreading its tail."
At this time, a group of people walked out of the forest.
Obito shook hands with Naoki, and his originally gloomy expression eased a lot.
"Comrade Captain, I leave them to you."
"Don't worry, the master has said that these people need proper guidance."
Afterwards, everyone, including Uchiha Yoshizawa, was taken to the Rain Country by the team led by Naoki.
There, the power called domineering will completely shatter their pride.
Among the second batch of students, there is a genius who awakened his domineering aura at the age of fifteen, and he was once an ordinary person that the Uchiha people looked down upon the most.
……
Three days later, at the root of Konoha.
Danzo looked at Terai who was reporting: "So they failed?"
Terai didn't dare to look up: "Due to the Sharingan, our people didn't get too close. Afterwards, the battlefield was cleaned up, but it was indeed a failure."
Danzo frowned.
Mangekyō Sharingan...The kid who resurrected the Uchiha clan from the dead actually opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.
No one knew the power of this eye better than him.
According to those records, the power possessed by the two heroes of the Warring States Period was enough to silence the entire world.
The original plan was to let those Uchiha guys do the action, and then the Root would kill everyone.
The barrier and preparations for the ambush were all in place, but in the end, that group of evil Uchiha... failed.
Terai spoke again: "After that, Uchiha Obito did not pass the ambush point, but appeared directly near the village. So... the plan for the subsequent attack was not launched."
There was a long silence.
There was not a trace of disappointment in Danzo's eyes.
The information he learned was about the Mangekyō Sharingan, but he did not know its specific capabilities.
But now, just traveling through time and space is enough to make him excited.
The kaleidoscope seemed to be in his pocket.
"grown ups."
"Ok?"
"We also have intelligence on the teachings in the Uchiha clan territory."
"Teaching?"
