Naruto: The will of fire has nothing to do with my Uchiha

Birds fly across the sky from time to time, but they fly on their own and not in formation. This is the information channel for communicating between the ninjas on the front lines and the headquarters. It is a bit old-fashioned, and there is no other way. The communication range of small radios is not that far, and large radios require base stations to be established in advance, which is obviously not realistic in the wilderness.

The birds returned to their nests, and soon after, the hurried footsteps of the messenger ninja were heard. The rapidity of the footsteps was often proportional to the seriousness of the matter.

Knocking on the door, greeting and other etiquette are all put aside for the time being.

"Lord Raikage, the Hidden Cloud Village has been attacked! It seems to be a white enemy spotted on the front line!"

We were just about to launch an attack, but the enemy got the upper hand and attacked the village behind us?!

There was a chance to attack the village, but they chose this time... It's not that they were unprepared.

"How many enemies are there and what is their specific situation?"

"It is currently estimated that there are nearly a thousand enemies, who emerged directly from the village, and the sensing barrier did not detect them."

"Here is the detailed information, please take a look."

The Raikage snatched the letter and read ten lines at a glance, then heaved a sigh of relief. The incident happened suddenly but the first wave of attacks had ended. It seemed like they were just testing each other, so the situation was not serious.

Each village already has garrison troops, for various reasons, to prevent the Akatsuki organization from stealing their homes, and it is not ruled out that they are also to guard against current friendly forces.

There were some white guys scattered among the enemies on the front line. I had fought with them for the first time at the Five Kage Conference. They didn't look like living people, but some kind of jutsu. In addition, I could sense from afar that the chakra dots in the direction of the Outer Path Statue were gathering like a hive of insects. I also knew that the Akatsuki organization was not what it had shown before, "always showing up as an elite team of two people, with good strength but somewhat shabby in terms of manpower." They had people, although it seemed that they were just making up the numbers at the moment, but "Uchiha Madara" did have enough regular team to start a war.

With more people, regardless of their strength, the possibility of separate attacks would increase sharply. The coalition forces had to consider the safety of the rear more than originally planned, and issued various orders to increase vigilance early on.

Basically, there are tens of thousands of combat units left in the village. Although their capabilities are not as good as the elite ninjas sent to the front line, they are enough to stay in the rear and lead the Genin to maintain the situation. They can open the village-level barrier to resist or go out for help in time without any accidents.

However, the fact that the ninja suffered little loss does not mean that there was no loss.

The enemy suddenly crossed the barrier and appeared inside the village, catching the Hidden Cloud Ninjas off guard. Under such circumstances, a large number of ordinary people and wounded ninjas went missing.

The Thunder Shadow waved his hand.

"Pass the order down and immediately organize three groups of people to investigate the situation in the surrounding villages and shelters."

"Mobilize five jonin teams from the front lines back to the village to assist with the night defense."

"Yes!"

After a slight hesitation, the Raikage continued to add,

"Report the attack on the village to the other four Kage and Mifune immediately. Go."

The exchange of intelligence during wartime must be done as promised. Although this information may make the old man Ohnoki have more thoughts, the Raikage is not afraid of him. No matter how bad the situation is, it will at most be a multi-party melee. It's not like he has never fought before.

The messengers and Anbu dispersed one after another, and the Raikage also left the office shortly afterwards. He planned to ask the Hokage to borrow one or two Hyuga teams to go to Kumogakure to assist with early warning.

Several other villages also set up their own temporary offices in the coalition headquarters, not far away, with messengers coming and going. Fortunately, the ninjas were fast, so they didn't seem crowded even if they came and went quickly. The other four Kage and the samurai Mifune were in charge of some of the wartime work. Although they all had subordinates to work, it was quite tiring to keep nodding and reviewing.

The ninja who delivered the message for the Raikage had just left the Hokage when the Raikage came over.

"Why are you still here instead of going back to the village to defend it? Are you planning to launch a frontal attack?"

"I want to borrow some manpower from you."

Tsunade did not say anything. The ninja just now simply conveyed: "The Hidden Cloud Village has been attacked, so everyone should be on high alert." They should have held a meeting to discuss the details, but now they were just waiting for the Raikage to finish clarifying the matter and talk about more details.

"The enemy appeared directly inside the village. The perception ninjas of the barrier team found nothing. They were the white enemies at the front line."

"Although they can move very quickly underground, the Hyuga clan's Byakugan can see them, so we want to borrow two Hyuga reconnaissance teams to go to Kumogakure to assist in the defense."

Many years ago, the Cloud Village tried to snatch the Byakugan from Konoha but failed. This time, taking advantage of the coalition, he commanded the Hyuga team. The experience was really great. The intelligence sent back from the Hyuga team was accurate and intuitive, which is something that ordinary ninjas with ordinary perception can never catch up with.

Although the front line is the coalition forces fighting, and the Raikage is the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, the work of protecting one's own village is still somewhat different if you have to look into it in detail. With the grudges in front, you always have to consider Konoha's thoughts.

Surprisingly, Tsunade didn't take the opportunity to be sarcastic.

"If the Raikage is free, come with me to meet the head of the Hyuga clan, and you can discuss this matter with him in person, how about that?"

"no problem."

Of course, you have to have the attitude to ask for help, and the Raikage would not feel condescending to such a great bloodline family.

In a hurry, the Hokage and the Raikage left as soon as they said they would. Unexpectedly, the hurried footsteps appeared in the Hokage's office this time.

"I have to go out for a while, wait for me..."

"Hokage-sama, Konoha is under attack!"

Someone was sharing the joys and sorrows, but the Raikage couldn't gloat over the misfortune at this time. Konoha was much farther away from here. If Tsunade was to follow her own arrangements, the chances of asking Hinata for help would obviously increase a lot. Tsunade's expression was a little twisted, not as calm as a Kage should be, which made the Raikage a little uneasy.

It was already afternoon, and the letter from Konoha had been floating in the sky for at least a few hours. The letter said that the situation was not serious and the villagers were slightly frightened but it was not a big deal. But it was getting dark, and if the enemy attacked at night, it would be different from fighting during the day.

For convenience, Tsunade brought all her trusted people to the battlefield, including Ino-Shika-Chou, Kakashi, Gai, Shizune, and a large number of elite soldiers... Sasuke said he didn't plan to take action, but he still followed the army all the way to the front line. What he said at that time "won't take action" now feels more like saying he didn't want to do chores.

There are also masters in the village. Just the ninjas left behind by each family are enough to give anyone a hard time, but there are still a lot of people that Tsunade is worried about.

There was no second power struggle, but there were a large number of new and old Genin, civilians, and craftsmen. They were completely incompetent in terms of fighting, and could not even complete their missions properly. Going to the battlefield was a death sentence. Now they were facing a night battle in the village? Tsunade was overwhelmed.

The contract of the Wet Bone Forest has been spread, but it has not played any role so far. If one of them stayed in Konoha, he would surely be able to receive the news as soon as Konoha was attacked.

Tsunade walked to the window, and the sound of her whistle spread across the canyon. A moment later, a crow flew into the office and transformed into Sasuke. Seeing that the Raikage was also there, Sasuke behaved a little more respectfully.

"What do you want, Hokage-sama?"
