Konoha's New Third Hokage

Chapter 287 The Brutal Ninja Village

After the sand hermit ninja troops retreated, the remaining sand hermit ninjas were like turtles in a urn. Even if the coalition forces did nothing, they would not be able to persist for too long.Considering the power that people will erupt in front of desperation, Uchiha mirror and Hanzo decided not to take a tough attack after discussing, but to surround them and wait for work.

During this period, Uchiha mirror took a look at the corpses of sand ninjas, mainly those sand ninjas who would rather die than surrender, looking at their wounds when they committed suicide, looking thoughtful.Seeing this, Hanzo also checked it several times, and didn't find anything unusual, but felt that Sagano's will was indeed tenacious.

"What do you care about, Kagami-kun?" Hanzo couldn't help asking.

"Well, Hanzo-kun, look, those who are hugging and dying together, some of them were captured by our subordinates, all of their chakras were exhausted, and they were even tied up with ropes, but they didn't care about the pain. , Resolutely going to die, I always feel very strange." Uchiha mirror said.

"There seems to be nothing special about it. In the early days of the Warring States period, ninjas who would commit suicide immediately after failing such a mission were not everywhere?" Hanzo said.

"That's because the ninjas at that time had no choice. Once they fell into the hands of the enemy, they would be tortured for all the information and then killed." Uchiha mirror said, "but this situation was different in the late Warring States period. Now, if there are indeed captives, although they will still be tortured, the level of cruelty has begun to decrease, and only important members of the ninja family will be treated like that."

The reason for such a change is that the ninjas in the early Warring States period performed tasks in their personal capacity, and those who could be dispatched were the elites of the family. If they did not use extraordinary means, it would be impossible to obtain information. Generally speaking , will not be involved in the battle between the families.

In the late Warring States period, the entire ninja family began to be hired by nobles. At that time, it was not an individual, but a grievance between the entire family.At that time, the quality of the ninjas sent by the ninja family was uneven. Even if there were prisoners, they were often not very capable people, and the torture was limited. Therefore, the ninja family who got the prisoners changed their minds, instead of wasting their own Energy, it is better to make good use of these captives.

As long as you don't intend to destroy the other party wholeheartedly, even if you capture an important member of the other party, even if you want to get the other party's information, you will not take that cruel approach. Once you do that, it means that the two families will never die. , This is unacceptable to those powerful ninjas who value family continuation.

If it's those small families with no background, it's fine. As long as they are relatively powerful ninjas, if they don't want to wipe out the other party, they will leave a step for the other party.Therefore, the practice of the past can no longer be adopted, which is why ninja captives began to appear, and these people were able to return to the ninja family.

Of course, the overall atmosphere can only be said to be better. Under the requirements of both parties to hire nobles, many families in the late Warring States period also went to the point where they were fighting to the death. The more obvious examples are the Senju and Uchiha families. , so there was a saying in the Warring States period: "A thousand hands, Uchiha also moves."

After entering the Ninja Village era, the atmosphere became even better. Many ninja families were brought under the management of one Ninja Village, and the storage of information and the value of information known to ninjas were changed. During the ninja war, the number of captives taken in exceeded the entire Sengoku period, and now the second ninja war, because of the emergence of civilian ninjas—the intelligence and value that civilian ninjas know is not as good as that of family ninjas in the past—only However, within a few months, the number of captured ninjas was already close to the results of the first ninja war in the past few years. If it weren't for the non-surrender of the sand hidden ninjas and the inability to expand armaments due to financial reduction, this number might have been surpassed.

Therefore, in this context, the fearlessness of death in Shayin Ninja Village is a relatively difficult phenomenon to explain. Most of a team or even an army are such people. It is completely understandable that the education of Ninja Village is in place, but Everyone is like this, and they have even been caught without fighting back, and they still have to think about it without even the strength to fight back. This is a bit abnormal.

——It’s almost like going back to the customs of the Warring States Period.Uchiha Mirror couldn't help but think in his heart.

"What's the use of thinking about this?" Hanzo didn't care that much. The Land of Rain he lives in is not like Konoha Ninja Village. Not too young ninjas have abandoned many of the ancient customs of the Warring States—so far, the Kingdom of Rain has only opened its doors for a few years, and Hanzo can be regarded as a person who has stepped into a new era, but he still has one foot in the old era .

"According to the village's order, treat the enemy with captives first, and treat your own side with the priority of reducing losses." Uchiha mirror said, "Looking at the current sand hidden ninjas, if they attack directly, they may cause a lot of damage to our side. The loss is just trapping them now. Over time, their fighting ability will decrease without supplies. At that time, we can also save a lot of people from dying, which satisfies the order of reducing losses first. "

"When dealing with the enemy, the captives are the first priority, but as you said, the sand hidden ninjas may not be able to capture them." Hanzo shook his head and said.

"No, I think there must be a reason behind their will to fight. Even if Sand Yin Ninja Village's development speed is not as fast as other villages due to various reasons, it will not become like this. If you can find the reason behind it The reason, maybe there is a way to capture them." Uchiha Mirror said.

"What if not?" Hanzo asked.

"No? Then there is nothing we can do. In the principle of reducing losses, we just trap him here. Whether they can't help but come out and want to break through, or stay until they have no strength to move, it's all right for us. Benefits." Uchiha shrugged, "It's better to attack directly."

"I thought you would think of other ways to capture them. After all, I heard that you treat the prisoners pretty well." Hanzo said with a smile.

"We will give a certain kind of goodwill, but it will not be based on harming our own interests." Uchiha mirror glanced at Hanzo, and said: "Only by taking good care of ourselves can we spare no effort to take care of others. The order of the authors must not be mistaken."

"Really." Hanzo was thoughtful. He felt that Uchiha Mirror should be hinting at his current position. As long as the country of rain does not intend to be an enemy of Konoha Ninja Village, then on the basis of a certain kind of goodwill, Konoha Ninja Village will take good care of the status of the Land of Rain, which is mutually beneficial.

"Then how do you plan to find out the reason behind this incident?" Hanzo asked immediately.

"Go and catch a sand hidden ninja, this time I will go there myself." Uchiha mirror raised his head, his eyes have turned into the state of sharingan, "with my illusion ability, I should be able to see you before the other party has time to react." , let him lose the ability to fight back."

In the future, Shisui Uchiha will be a direct descendant of Kagami Uchiha. Perhaps Shisui Uchiha’s talent for illusion comes from his grandfather. Kagami Uchiha also has a lot of experience in illusion. The instructor is Momoka Senju, who used illusion to occupy a place in the Senju family during the Warring States period. Even the Uchiha family dare not underestimate Senju Momoka. After her training, Uchiha mirror's illusion ability is even more outstanding.

Senju Momoka retired to the second line after the first ninja battle, and served as a teacher at the ninja school, responsible for the courses of illusion. When Uchiha Kagami was free, she would ask her for advice. As a teacher, he is still very energetic, and he is also willing to pass on his experience to the former students. Even though he is a member of the Uchiha clan, he is still a member of the village now, and he is still a young man whom Senju Momoka admires.

Thinking of Senju Momoka at this time, Uchiha Kyou couldn't help but feel a little sad. At Senju Momoka's age, including the losses caused by the battle during the Warring States Period, it is estimated that he would not live long. After leaving behind the hidden wounds brought about by the war, how long can my old instructor, who is regarded by Feng Mori Masaki's wife Satomi as his mother's strange woman, last?

After tidying up his mood, Uchiha Kagami took a team out. They had already obtained the position of a sand hidden ninja team. It was just out of the tactic of encircling and not attacking, so no one bothered the other party.When he sneaked there, the Hinata ninja beside him reported that there were only three people on the other side, and reported their positions one by one.

Uchiha mirror thought about it in his heart, and explained his plan to the people around him, focusing on capturing the opponent. As long as Uchiha mirror made a move, he could use illusion to control the opponent before the opponent died together.

At this time, the Sand Yin ninja team didn't know what they were about to face. They looked around nervously. They knew that they and others had been besieged, and they also heard the news that the Sand Yin ninja village had retreated. At first they didn't How can I believe it, but looking at the quiet surroundings, my heart is getting more and more drumming, could it be that I and others have been abandoned?Can you just wait here alone and helpless?
Under such tremendous mental pressure, their thoughts were crazy at first, thinking that they would rather die than pull a back, because fear of death is worthless, so they didn't choose to run around, but waited here, but they didn't expect Konoha Neither the ninja nor the rain hidden ninja took any action.

As time passed, their originally not very calm minds gradually came to their senses. They began to think whether they should choose to die because of this, or there might be other ways out.Perhaps out of self-deception, they are also thinking that Konoha Ninja Village has not discovered their existence and has already left, or there may be loopholes in the encirclement constructed by Konoha Ninja, and they and others still have to escape hope.

Even though they thought so, none of them had the courage to take the initiative to attack. They were afraid that they would run into Konoha ninja halfway, and then they would have to fight each other to the death. The best result would be to leave this world with the opponent. Exist, unless they can ignore the life and death of their family members.

Even if you have no family members, you have to think about it. Once you surrender, you will be regarded as a betrayer of the village. Even if you return to the village after the war, will you still have any good fruit to eat?Ninja Village is a place where families are organized as units, and ordinary people join in. It looks good in daily life, but once it enters the field of ninjas, it will show the cruel side of ninjas.

Therefore, without the burden of family members, and no sand hermit ninja chooses to surrender, rather than being brutally tortured to death in the future, it is better to die with the enemy as soon as possible!

"Are we just waiting here? The food will always be exhausted, and we still have to go out to find it." A sand hermit ninja said in despair.

"Say, that's right, you have to get out after all." Another sand hermit ninja said so, his throat moved, but he didn't take a step.

The remaining sand hidden ninja is the strongest among them. His expression is haggard, but his eyes are still calm. He listened to what his companion said. If you can survive death, let's go out and investigate the situation."

"What if I meet a Konoha ninja?"

"Then fight, I'm afraid I won't be able to die!" The sand hidden ninja who proposed to go out said viciously, "Sitting here will starve to death, and going out to die will also die, so it doesn't matter which one you choose?"

The other two people nodded slowly when they heard the words. Just when they decided to go out, they felt the ground vibrate. The previous choice made them relax their vigilance. Two people isolated Sand Yin Ninja Village.

The three separated immediately, and the strongest person felt that something was wrong, subconsciously pulled out Kunai, and decided to die with the other party.At this time, he felt a person appearing in his body, and immediately planned to take out the detonating talisman—although the power of the detonating talisman was greatly reduced in such a rainy weather, as long as a large number of detonating talismans were concentrated, coupled with the short distance, it was still Those who may die with the opponent, the detonating talisman obtained before participating in the war, basically never used it when they noticed this ghostly weather, and everyone planned to use it when they died together with the opponent.

However, this sand ninja didn't have time to detonate the detonating talisman. A pair of scarlet eyes appeared in his vision. The scarlet color was like thick blood, drowning the entire population of the sand ninja village, and his nose was full of blood The fishy smell shocked him so much that he seemed to faint.

——That, that is...

At the end of the memory, the sand hidden ninja wanted to say the name of those eyes, but he couldn't say it anymore. He completely lost consciousness and couldn't feel the existence of anything.

His body fell to the ground, sinking slightly into the muddy ground, and the rest of the sand hidden ninjas also fell down, and there was a "Uchiha mirror" standing in front of them.Uchiha mirror closed his eyes slightly, released his shadow clone, and said to his subordinates: "Thanks for your hard work."

Then, Uchiha Mirror focused on the sand hidden ninja who was controlled by illusion. The conventional usage of illusion is to disturb the opponent's Chakra to cause hallucinations. The higher level is to implant corresponding memory illusions, so as to control The opponent, of course, has very few phantom ninjas who can display this ability.

The illusions that can be created by illusion are based on the user's own cognition. If they do not have the corresponding cognition at all, it is impossible to create them. The idea is magnified, the more powerful the illusion, the greater the degree of magnification - and the reason why other gods can be called the strongest illusion is that they can magnify the depths of their hearts without the other party being aware of it. No matter how tiny thoughts are amplified to rewrite the will of the other party, there is no need to maintain the connection of Chakra like ordinary Sharingan to control others.

The human heart is complex and changeable. As long as it exists, even if it almost does not exist, it can be rewritten by other gods. Therefore, other gods can almost rewrite anyone's will, except for those thoughts or forces that are completely in the heart and cannot be rewritten. Do not exist above the gods.

Uchiha mirror quickly knew what he wanted, except for those thoughts that he was unwilling to be caught without a fight. The reason why these people would rather think about it was the non-surrender order issued by Sand Yin Ninja Village. It is treason and tolerance, and the family members will be killed.

"It turned out to be like this." Uchiha Mirror made a voice of sudden realization, followed by a burst of angry shouts: "How cruel!"
