It has been almost three years since this alliance was established from scratch, led by Uchiha and assisted by Senju.

Due to the contact methods and the natural defensiveness of ninjas, the initial communication was not smooth. Fortunately, Uchiha's sincerity and Senju's calmness were both facts worthy of scrutiny. As a result, the ninjas of the Fire Country let down their guard.

Compared to the famous Uchiha and Senju in the ninja world, the strength and scale of these ninja clans are not outstanding. However, as has been emphasized all along, alliance is the general trend. When their leaders and elites gathered in this specially cleaned courtyard, the entire environment was soaked with the momentum of these ninjas who fought in the wind and rain. Birds The animals, snakes and insects walked away cleanly, and even the smell of the wind that blew by changed.

Quan Nai put down the tea in his hand. It must be said that he was aroused to fight. Ninjas speak with their strength. Ninjas who have had problems or conflicts in the past have fought several times based on their momentum - now, it is just to show their "value".

"Seal! Get up!"

Just as the ninjas were waiting for the start, a clear female voice sounded. What followed was a burst of chakra so powerful that it caused the air in the courtyard to tremble, spreading across the ground beneath his feet with a smell full of coldness and judgment.

The criss-crossing chakra lines draw a huge chessboard below, connecting the dots into lines, and nesting countless characters responsible for murder and ban. A ninja who was familiar with the sealing technique took a tentative look, and then his mind was buzzing with confusion, and he muttered, "This is... several formations superimposed."

Seal, illusion, killing formation, isolation... Such a huge formation, who created it!

The formation in the void was quickly completed, and the magnificent thin lines in the mid-air faded away. The person who jumped from the roof was wearing Uchiha uniform, and the dark fabric made his face look particularly fair.

The old man behind her who was carrying the whirlpool symbol had bright eyes. When he looked at the figure with his back turned, he couldn't help but sigh to himself:

No wonder...how could the person who could suppress Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara be a simple person?

"It's Master Zhenyuan..." Someone whispered in the silence. Needless to say, this must be an Uchiha.

Uchiha Mabuchi.

The ninjas who heard this name countless times from the intelligence quickly cast their scrutinizing eyes on that position. The young man who already had a calm demeanor looked back calmly, with a twitch of eyebrows, and the undisguised pressure came from Exudes from the body!

Endless murderous intent, carrying the sharp metallic feeling of the blade's fluttering wings, surged in like a wave. And outside of it, the power as thick as a mountain fell from a high place and washed past without mercy, almost making their ears ring with the roar of fantasy.

boom!

The first level is for decisive killing.

boom!

The second level is like a natural moat.

boom!

The third level is endless and continuous.

The air in the courtyard was shaking and vibrating, and the ninja's body was still resisting, struggling not to be easily crushed.

"Snapped".

A crisp sound out of thin air interrupted the suppression, and a hand was placed on the girl's slightly narrow shoulder. The Uchiha clan leader seemed to be slightly reproachful and said, "Maabuchi, please don't lose our courtesy."

"Of course." The girl smiled simply, but her eyes remained calm and steady. The next second, all the momentum of letting go suddenly disappeared. The ninja with poor concentration almost immediately began to breathe heavily, and his back was covered in cold sweat.

terrible. It's not the terror of pure murderous intent, but something deeper, the terror that reaches the ground from a height adjacent to the sky.

"Thank you all for coming. Zhenyuan apologizes for being rude just now." The girl said, bowing gracefully. Now she looks particularly gentle and elegant, with a well-educated attitude at first glance:

"The seal outside has been placed, and Uchiha Senju will be responsible for confidentiality and safety throughout the process. Ninjas are not like nobles, so without further delay, please take your seats as soon as possible."

Finally, she smiled and said, "Welcome to the Fire Nation Ninja Alliance meeting. It is our great honor."

Compared with information, you can better grasp it by facing real people. There are confidentiality regulations when ninjas go on missions. Except for the Senju who are most familiar with Uchiha, most ninjas can only speculate on paper what kind of person [Uchiha Mabuchi] is.

From the actual contact point of view, the most basic thing is that they recognize this person's strength.

The meeting started, just like the one just now, the ninja was used to a more efficient and feedback-based communication method. After Tajima said a few polite words intentionally or unintentionally, the topic of the entire meeting naturally turned to the first part of the topic, purpose.

"After learning about the invitation sent by Uchiha and Senju, we thought again and again and still came to keep the appointment." A young ninja said, with hesitation on his face, "But we still have doubts about the alliance, even if we accept the daimyo What use is the recruitment order to the ninja clan?"

Well...this is something that needs to be answered head-on. No matter how much intelligence and private communication there is, words that are truly spoken openly and honestly are the most effective.

Instructing an Uchiha to start recording the content of the meeting, I threw out a scroll, and with the assistance of Izuna and Tobirama, I unfolded a three-dimensional topographic map of various countries, pointing to the Land of Fire and starting to introduce:

"Look guys, this is where we are now."

For the first time, the ninjas, who had seen clearly the concept of being in this land, stared at the map intently. There are small and exquisite mountains, rivers and lakes on it, there are passes and narrow mouths that mark the strategic points of the military, and there are also pieces of heaven and earth, and cities and towns.

Following the instructions to continuously choose to zoom in, they saw a large light spot at their fingertips, which then split again and turned into small light spots that converged together.

Count carefully, exactly the number of meetings attended.

"That's right, we used the Inaga tribe to create a scanning device for chakra fluctuations, combined with the map..." The map was zoomed out again, and specially marked light spots lit up from all over the Land of Fire, just like on this land. The scattered stars "can count the number and distribution of ninjas in the entire country."

A smart person already knew what he was going to say. The black-haired middle-aged ninja said in an unsteady tone, "This, the proportion is"

"Compared to normal civilians, it's less than one percent."

Inaga Izumi stood up from the position behind him. He put on the Uchiha uniform, looking less frivolous and more calm.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, the slippery feeling came out, "So obviously, if we continue to do this, the children will not grow up and go to the battlefield. Sooner or later, the small ninja clan will naturally disappear, and the middle ninja clan will struggle for tasks. The great ninja clan's eyes turned red, and then they all finished with a bang."

"For example, if I don't want to be a dog for the daimyo, I can only rely on Uchiha~"

Even people who don't know Inagasen's hands feel itchy after hearing these words. Due to Uchiha's threat, no one took any action, but in fact, many ninja clan leaders had decided to "discuss and discuss" with him in private.

Inaga Izumi doesn't care what others think, he is a technician. The person who made the basic information of the scroll with one hand imported chakra into the map. In an instant, signs with different colors from the light spots spread out with his breath, densely spreading from the mountains to the sea. "These are ordinary people. Simply divide them to make it clearer." .”

The ninjas had never experienced such a direct contrast. In normal days, maintaining the entire family already consumes most of their energy, so how can they consider such a big concept?

Except for a few people who are interested in the concept of tianxia, ​​the appearance of the outside world can only be divided into those related to survival and those that have nothing to do with ninjas.

"In contrast to the small population of the Ninja clan, it is their expenditure."

I said in a tone without any emotional expression, "In analyzing the living conditions of different classes of people in various countries, we found that only ninjas and slaves are unproductive."

"Without production qualifications and conditions, we can only rely on mission funds and the commercial resources of noble subordinates to purchase food. Let's not talk about competition. Just if the nobles want to take control, how many ninjas can guarantee that they can survive."

The little ninja didn't say anything, and the countless similar people who perished because of their lack of ability were the answers.

"As for the big ninja clan..."

I looked at the group of people with particularly prominent eyes among the attendees, and said with a calm expression, "If you want to maintain your reputation and get more tasks, you can only go to battle to kill more enemies and train more children at home."

“It takes resources, it takes time, it takes money.”

"Fight for strength, fight for reserves, fight tooth and nail."

"As people continue to sacrifice, they need to work harder to gain recognition in order to maintain it. The efforts come from the next generation, and they have been trapped in an endless loop for a long time - don't you think this is an extremely ridiculous thing?"

Izanna took out the tax analysis results of the Fire Country. He had seen this often in the past, and now he spoke more informally, "The Fire Country now makes profits from civilians' fields, and if the farmers retain it as one gold, Merchants can make a profit of three golds, while nobles exploit five golds. The remaining gold is used by various means to invest in national expenditures, and becomes weapons for soldiers, relief for disasters, etc.”

"As for our money, we get one gold from the nobles, half of the gold is used to buy grain and logistic resources for the farmers, three-fifths of the gold is used to buy equipment and daily necessities for the merchants, one-fifth is used to establish connections with the nobles, and the remaining fifth is used to buy food and logistics resources for the farmers. Keep one of them, I wonder if I can bring something to my sisters and brothers.”

"So, where did our relatives die, where did our money and food spend, and where did the things we fought for finally come true?"

I said, "Uchiha is looking at the entire ninja clan and country with this idea. When the facts are there, we have to admit that even if ninjas have been used as tools or weapons for thousands of years, flesh and blood cannot be replaced. Being squeezed dry by bits and pieces of cruelty——"

"Those are our relatives, living lives, you and me here."

None of the ninja leaders present were aware of their situation, but what was pressing on them from the beginning was that it was a matter of course, and they had to abide by these rules and norms. This has been the case for thousands of years, countless generations, and ancestors.

"We...understand."

The Hyuga clan leader, who has high prestige among the ninja clan, said with a hint of worry in his eyebrows, "But change is too difficult... We don't have the courage."

"Until now, it's not too late to change." Senju Tobirama said, pressing a piece of material next to Izuna's information: "Perhaps everyone knows that Senju made a change not long ago. We gave up part of it. The source of the mission, and instead focused on the special resources of the ninja."

The young man with silver hair and crimson eyes remained calm, which made people think that he was stating the facts for no reason. "The results proved that the losses during the transformation period were completely made up by the subsequent gains, and more applications also increased the survival rate of the clan. ——I mean, on the basis of a good mission, the survival rate of maintaining combat effectiveness."

He said calmly, "Aren't we afraid of the consequences or risks of failure caused by the transformation? The Alliance can do it. With the Senju and Uchiha keeping them down, you don't have to worry."

The other ninjas couldn't help but cast their eyes on the man standing with Uchiha Tajima, Senju's former clan leader. Senju Buddha moved his mouth and silently closed his eyes: he acquiesced.

At this moment, everyone was speechless. Even Senju Buddhama, who was famous for his stubbornness and stubbornness, could stand with his old rival. The alliance between Uchiha and Senju was definitely a certainty.

Besides...

Their eyes darted around the two young men, one black and one white: I heard that Uchiha Madara, who is about to become the clan leader, and Senju Hashirama, who is already the clan leader, have a very good relationship, and they have demonstrated their strong combat power in the future of the ninja clan. , it seems, probably, possible...

Give it a try

Then give it a try!

"You don't have to worry too much about the future of our alliance." I smiled, "I guess you haven't figured out the significance of the daimyo's recruitment order yet."

The head of the Nara family, who had reacted quickly before, frowned. He quickly thought of a possibility in his mind and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Is it possible for them to admit that in the Land of Fire, ninjas are a force similar to samurai!"

"Which forces are you connected with? If you're not careful, you run the risk of being co-opted!"

Those who are smart can save worry. I gave him an approving look and said slowly, "Of course I say it only when I am sure. Sometimes the power is intuitive, sometimes the benefits are moving, and sometimes the situation adds fuel to the flames. Naturally we chose a three-pronged approach.”

Slowly opening a bloodthirsty smile, I put my hand on the Inu Crow Stream without hesitation, my palm covering the empty mountains and cities, "The Daimyo of the Land of Fire cannot bear to be defeated here, let's tell him , Ninjas, especially powerful ninjas, can fight one against a hundred against thousands, and have the power to decide the situation of the battle!"

"Kanemasa Nagasu has always stepped on the boundary between a great noble and an independent city lord. We told him that ninjas can be the blade to stabilize the situation. We will ensure that we will not be associated with the daimyo and local forces for a long time, and will only serve as an independent deterrent!"

"If Toshiie Hayashikawa wants to rise to power, let's tell him that ninjas have the power and financial resources to get it!"

"As long as they are ambitious, ninjas are the perfect choice. Before Houkai faces waves of external enemy struggles, internal fighting, and peasant riots, there is only one force that can be trusted, and that is our Ninja Alliance!"

As for whether the forces that have been raised in the future will backlash, it all depends on their own methods.

I smiled at the various clan leaders who looked at me, believing that everything was unspoken.

terrible.

Among the people present, more than one person crossed this word in their mind.

Ninjas are not short of smart people. They have ideas and experiments, and they want to change the world that has been entangled in thousands of years of war.

But no one can be as bold as her, with the courage and decisive power to brave the disapproval of the world and do whatever her heart wants to do.

Ambitious cannot be described, nor can arrogance be summed up. It's too early to tell about Tianxia Buwu, it can only be a shock.

Shocked by the fearless courage.

Yes. Don’t they know what will happen in the end? Forcibly pushing a new force to come to power will inevitably cause a big wave of re-dividing interests - only war.

She can only let her control, provoke, break out, and end the war perfectly. Only by restarting a huge war that swept the entire land, and by countless great riots compressed in this era, can we clean up the past conflicts between cities, countries, and ninja clans, and the final blueprint can be achieved.

Does she have this ability? Some people wonder if she knew that if she made any mistakes in moving forward, she would be destroyed on this road.

Has she thought about the consequences? Some people thought that if she ran away halfway, the ninja clan might be left with a greater disaster, even more endless disasters.

"Ah, one good thing about me is that I never believe in illusory things. Compared with verbal promises and oaths, real results can be more verified."

The girl who regained her brisk expression said that her pair of Sharingan eyes instantly turned into a hooked triangle. In a daze, they remembered the chakra and aura that suppressed everyone. It was a clear statement of power.

"I have a feeling that there is something to climb above this power."

She knocked on the table, "Personal strength is one thing. After the alliance is established, I will focus part of my energy on the popularization and education of ninjutsu. It should be noted that the leader of the Uchiha clan is Madara, and I, Uchiha Mabuchi , Uchiha Mabuchi, who can only do alliances."

"Of course," she said in a relaxed tone, "It is also possible to change the name to Zhenyuan."

"!"

The leader of the ninja clan was startled, and Senna couldn't help but look at Tajima, receiving a subtle judgment look. He reached out and grabbed a corner of his clothes, barely able to tell what he was feeling in his heart.

For a ninja who is bound by family and whose surname and clan name are glorious, this sentence is the most sincerity a person can suppress.

As for the other two clans... someone looked at the Uchiha and Senju who were standing guard everywhere, and found that they also acquiesced after being briefly surprised. This is really...

Hinata, who was still the leader of the big clan, made a ninja salute without any shame in bowing to his junior, "So far, you have done your best in terms of ability, resources, brains and sincerity. I think, For results that are beyond doubt, there is no need to elaborate further.”

"I, Hinata, am willing to join the alliance." The older man with white eyes and a gentle demeanor said solemnly, "The alliance needs a leader, and I also believe that you will be the leader we need."

Following him, the remaining ninja clan responded, "We are also willing to join, leader!"

Ah, this is the first step to success. Uchiha Mabuchi.

I told myself. You already have a good starting point, a supportive family, friends and subordinates who trust you, strength, and capital.

Are you satisfied now?

Are you satisfied?

……

……

No, of course not!

The goal I want to achieve, my past that is invaded by blankness, the pain of looking back at the long river of time countless times and being able to only hold on to something...

My persistence...

my future……

I……

"The establishment of the alliance depends on everyone's trust. What I can repay is the simplest truth."

"In this world, wanting to live a better life is the most natural thing. I firmly believe that."

I said, with a gentle look on my face, "I believe we can do it."
