Naruto: Sukuna Jinchuriki, I am Uchiha

After the two men left with Fugaku, Jiraiya slowly approached.

As one of the three ninjas, Jiraiya could certainly sense such a loud commotion.

Uchiha Kagami also noticed that he was already there and did not hide it.

It was like giving Minato a choice.

Jiraiya was indebted to him, and Uchiha Kagami was willing to give him a choice.

Originally, Fugaku had it too, but he chose the wrong one.

……

Jiraiya looked at Uchiha Kagami with extremely complicated eyes and a myriad of thoughts.

The scarlet in his eyes faded away, and Uchiha Jing turned his head and chuckled.

"Jiraiya-sensei."

Jiraiya's eyes recalled the boy who had called him teacher for the first time with an innocent smile a few years ago.

Clearly not much time has passed, but it feels as if a lifetime has passed.

"Jing...does this battle have to happen?"

If Fugaku can see it clearly, how could Jiraiya not see it clearly?

By the time this war is over, the conflict between the Uchiha and the village will be irreconcilable.

Uchiha Kagami, the leader of the radical faction, has already taken over...

"There was once a chance for reconciliation, but it was Senju Tobirama who cut off that possibility."

……

……

I understand...

but……

My own disciple and my own teacher...

……

Jiraiya was silent for a long, long time.

"mirror."

His expression was like half of his face was smiling and the other half was crying, very distorted.

"Tsunade is gone...I want to travel after this war is over."

"Forgive me, Jing."

"The teacher is a coward and doesn't have the courage to stand by you..."

"At least... Konoha will exist, right?"

……

Is this your choice...Teacher Jiraiya.

"of course."

"The Uchiha originally had a hand in the establishment of Konoha."

"I just want to take back what belongs to the Uchiha."

……

Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief.

Let Orochimaru worry about the rest...

Anyway, it's you who wants to be Hokage.

"Ah, I wanted you to help me collect materials from the village, you are such a restless kid."

"Fugaku was injured on the battlefield and is returning to the village to recuperate. I will tell the old man so."

Jiraiya walked closer and wanted to touch Uchiha Kagami's head.

I realized that this guy was almost as tall as me, so it was inconvenient to touch his head, so I had to pat his shoulder.

"Let's go. I'll show you how I can change the properties of the Rasengan..."

-

A month passed.

The Western Front.

The Wind Country declared defeat several months ago, and the Sand Village submitted an alliance agreement to Konoha.

If it is not surrender, there will naturally be no treaty regarding compensation.

Konoha, which was facing enemies on all sides, was also overwhelmed, even though they knew that the Sand Village could not send any people to assist them in the battle.

But if a ceasefire is reached, some of the combat forces can be mobilized to the Iwagakure battlefield to relieve the pressure.

Konoha agreed.

Since then, the Kingdom of Wind, which first started the war, was the first to withdraw from the Third Ninja World War and licked its wounds in the wind and sand.

……

In the command room, Konoha's main fighting forces gathered.

Orochimaru, Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki, besides Nara Shikaku's Ino-Shikacho, Yuhi Shinku, Sarutobi Shinnosuke...

Uchiha and Hyuga were on the eastern battlefield, while Jiraiya, Uchiha Kagami and others were on the northern battlefield.

Most of Konoha's strength is gathered here.

Namikaze Minato looked a little gloomy. He only found out what happened to Kakashi afterwards. At that time, he was still on the front battlefield against Iwagakure and had no time to take care of other things.

With Kirigakure joining the battle, the situation on the eastern front is not optimistic. If it weren't for Nara Shikaku's superb wisdom, Kirigakure would probably have invaded the Fire Country.

All the ninjas that Konoha could send out have been sent out, and relatives and friends have died in every household.

War, are two very cruel words.

Sarutobi Hiruzen could no longer withstand this level of damage and decided to gather a large force for a decisive battle with Iwagakure.

The entire army gathers in front of the Kannabi Bridge, and Sarutobi Hiruzen will also arrive at the battlefield.

This is a battle that determines the fate of the Fire Nation. After defeating the Iwagakure clan, which has the largest number of people, head-on, they can concentrate their forces to fight against the Kumogakure clan.

As long as you can free up your hands, there is no need to be afraid of the Mist coming across the sea.

On the other side of the Kannabi Bridge, one can see sand and dust all over the sky from afar. This should be the noise caused by the large number of Iwagakure ninjas.

Iwagakure cannot afford a protracted war with Konoha because their resources are not as abundant as Konoha's.

In fact, this war was Ohnoki exchanging Iwagakure's inferior horses for Konoha's superior horses.

I wouldn't feel sad if any of them died, because you have quite a few ninja clan members.

Besides... Iwagakure is in a period of transition. If he can find a few good talents in the war, he can also vigorously cultivate them.

……

Soon, Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared in military uniform and opened the tent.

"Lord Hokage!"

"Sandaime-sama!"

"You are here, Sandaime."

"If you fight in person, we will definitely win!"

"Third generation old man, you are really here!"

……

The frequent battles in his youth made Sarutobi Hiruzen look old before he was sixty.

But his era has not yet ended.

When he appeared on the battlefield, the originally dull atmosphere changed instantly.

Many of them grew up listening to the legend of Sarutobi Hiruzen and had great respect for this heroic ninja.

Even someone like Orochimaru felt at ease when he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen.

If it's an old man, then there's no problem.

You are the man who ended two Ninja World Wars and led Konoha into its heyday!

……

"Orochimaru, Minato, what is the current situation?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not believe in intelligence superstitiously. During war, the judgment of the on-site commander was the most intuitive.

"Three days ago, Iwagakure launched a large-scale offensive, with about 15,000 men, and the Jinchūriki also showed up."

Orochimaru's voice was low and a little hoarse. He hadn't had a good rest in the past six or seven days.

"Only by relying on Kushina can we make up for the lack of combat power."

"The intelligence ninja has learned that a larger number of Iwagakure are gathering at the Kannabi Bridge."

……

"I see. It seems that old man Ohnoki also wants to end this war."

He and Ōnoki are old rivals. They have fought each other at the end of World War I and throughout the Second Ninja War.

There were wins and losses on local battlefields, but in the end, Konoha was the winner.

It can't be considered a mortal feud, after all, it was the Iwagakure Village that took the initiative to attack Konoha.

Ohnoki hated the Third Raikage even more. If that reckless man hadn't taken the initiative to seek cooperation, he would still want to PK with the Third Raikage.

In the final analysis, it was because Uchiha Kagami confronted his Dust Release head-on and killed the previous Eight-Tails Jinchuriki that the mortal enemies Kumogakure and Iwagakure joined forces.

After understanding the situation, Sarutobi Hiruzen arranged a series of deployments. He obviously had a better sense of the battlefield than Orochimaru and pointed out many of his shortcomings.

His eyes flickered between Orochimaru and Minato.

After this war is over, it will be time for me to abdicate...

The village should be handed over to a suitable fourth generation.

only……

He thought again of the message Jiraiya sent back from the northern battlefield.

Fugaku...

He also wanted to go to the Uchiha clan's territory to check on Fugaku and find out what was going on, but he was stopped by a group of Uchiha clan members led by Shenhuo.

A group of people with red eyes, either old men or disabled, Sarutobi Hiruzen really couldn't bring himself to force his way in.

Danzo is not here again.

It is better to wait until the war is over to solve these problems. We cannot leave them to the fourth generation.

You failed the last chance I gave you...
