Uchiha's opinion

"National...international mediation?"

When Uchiha Tokumitsu went to the ninja class to communicate with Hatake Sakumo, Hatake Sakumo was very surprised.

Although Hatake Sakumo also literally understood what Uchiha Tokumitsu said, he didn't quite imagine that this word came from the mouth of the Uchiha clan who are notorious for their aggressiveness.

Furthermore, the ninjas who have long been accustomed to zero-sum games have no habit of achieving peace through third-party mediation.

Of course, it's not that there is no so-called "mediation" in the ninja world, but its nature is completely different from what Uchiha Tokumitsu said literally.

For example, when two small countries have a conflict of interest, the big country will often come forward to make adjustments in order to prevent the struggle of the small country from harming its own interests.

Of course, this kind of mediation is backed by the powerful force of major powers.

Moreover, the result of "mediation" is not only that the interests of the small countries are directly taken away by the big countries, and it is euphemistically called "removing the root causes of conflicts".

The most typical case is that after the rise of Urenin Village under the command of Sanshoyu Hanzo, a group of small countries were defeated in the east and west wars. Not only the country of grass, the country of Taki, and the country of frost, etc. Until the attack of Sansho Hanzo, even the Iron Country, which is far away from the Rain Country, was attacked by Urenin.

Of course, Urenin Village of Sanshoyu Hanzo was soon besieged by the four land powers for the crime of breaching peace.

The chicken thief's Yunyin Village just sent troops to expel the forces of Yuren in small countries such as the Kingdom of Frost, while Konoha, Yanyin, and Sandyin chose to directly invade the territory of the Kingdom of Rain, thus setting off a protracted second ninja world war.

Among the four great powers on the mainland, the only one that has never fought against Urenin led by Sanshoyu Hanzo is Yunyin, one of the targets of this mediation.

"Mediate..."

The more Hatake Sakumo thought about it, the more headache he felt, "Tokumitsu-kun, this matter may not be as simple as you imagined..."

The "mediation" that the ninja world is used to is to mediate the small country, but it is obvious that the iron-headed boy of Yuren village can't operate in such a secret way.

Besides, Yun Yin is notoriously arrogant and unreasonable, and he is a master who loses even if he takes advantage of the cheap. Does this kind of mediation by iron-headed boys on both sides ease the situation or further promote the intensity of the war... Sakumo Hatake Have reservations about this.

Moreover, there is also a lack of normalized communication mechanisms among the major ninja villages in the ninja world.

Except for the Five Kages Convention in the past and the Chunin Joint Examination that has emerged in recent years, the major ninja villages rarely communicate with each other, which makes mediation even more difficult.

Even if Hatake Sakumo is willing to come forward, it will be difficult to find a suitable and high-level dialogue channel.

"It will indeed be a bit difficult, but it is still an attempt after all, isn't it~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said leisurely: "The dawn of peace has appeared on the horizon, how will we know if it will work if we don't fight for it?"

"...Isn't the so-called horizon just a line that can be seen but never reached!"

For Uchiha Tokumitsu's inexplicable but interesting metaphors, Hatake Sakumo has long been immune to them, and even has a certain degree of interpretation ability.

"It doesn't matter, what matters is the international reputation that contributed to this matter!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu shrugged and said: "After all, launching a war is just a matter of one sentence, but stopping the war before the war is of greater significance."

"...It's just that you and I preside over this matter, which is somewhat unfair."

Hatake Sakumo made some sense when he heard it, so he lowered his voice and said to Uchiha Tokumitsu: "The leader of the village is still Hokage-sama after all..."

Of course, Hatake Sakumo would not admit that he was moved by the reputation and fame brought about by this matter.

"It's fine to report to Hokage-sama, who is under our control~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said indifferently: "Anyway, I just need to talk to his old man. We will help the respected Hokage-sama to share the specific affairs~"

"After all, as the leader of the village, he has been so busy all day, let him take a good rest."

Although Uchiha Tokumitsu did not call the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen an old monkey as usual, the malice in this yin and yang discourse has not diminished in the slightest.

Hatake Sakumo breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the Uchiha Tokumitsu in his impression!

The righteous and awe-inspiring words just now really made him feel uncomfortable!

"It's just that Hokage-sama won't be willing to delegate power like this..."

Hatake Sakumo pointed out the problem: "It is inevitable that he will intervene."

"What other characters can you find in Hokage-sama's pocket~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu sneered: "The big deal is that the peace-loving Mitomon consultant will be sent to Yun Yin~"

"You are really hurt..."

If Mito Menyan sent Yun Yin, who was in power of the martial arts faction, there would be no danger, but a mocking and snubbing would definitely be indispensable.

"If that's the case... let's do it! It just so happens that you can also make a name for the Reform Society in the ninja world!"

Hatake Sakumo also made up his mind: "I will communicate with Hokage-sama, but Tokumitsu-kun, do you have a specific mediation plan?"

"It must be there~"

Seeing that Uchiha Tokumitsu had succeeded in persuading Hatake Sakumo, he was also very satisfied: "First inform the Sarutobi shogunate in the name of the military command to lead the northern border defense forces to enter the country of Tianzhi and cut off the land passage of Yunyin; then let the Fire Gate shogunate Use the land of Taki to block the border of the country of frost, and completely block Yunyin's advance route; the ninja army under my command will also be transferred to the north as a reserve team."

"This... is this mediation?"

Hatake Sakumo was dumbfounded, "Are you sure this is not preparing for a battle?"

"Armed mediation is normal. Besides, if you seek peace through war, you will live peacefully, and if you seek peace through compromise, you will die peacefully."

Uchiha Tokumitsu got up and said: "If not, how can we make those Yunyin barbarians willing to accept our mediation?"

"It's just that there is a bit of a war risk..."

Hatake Sakumo hesitated again.

"It's okay~ At worst, I will sell more military supplies to Wuyin and provide some war loans, so that Yunyin will be powerless."

Hatake Sakumo was speechless.

"Then please~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu was also about to leave, "By the way, if the village is unwilling to uphold justice for Urenin, then I will lead my troops north."

After all, in the final analysis, the rain ninja of Sanshoyu Hanzo just helped Uchiha Tokumitsu take the peerless black pot of snatching the tailed beast for no reason.

For the sake of fighting side by side, and in order to bring Sansho Hanzo to the battlefield again when the Kirigakure Conquest is launched next time, Uchiha Tokumitsu still tried his best to promote "mediation".

"I know, I know~"

Hatake Sakumo said a little annoyed.

"It's up to you, Shuo Mao-jun."

After speaking, Uchiha Tokumitsu opened the door and left.

...

"You call this a mediation?"

When Hatake Sakumo compiled a proposal based on Uchiha Tokumitsu's suggestion and submitted it to the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen III felt a little numb.

The main force of Konoha's three frontier defense forces from the three major shogunates of the Fire Country all set out to invade Yun Yin's sphere of influence and block the marching route... Isn't this a naked threat of war?

When did the threat of war become so elegantly called "mediation"?

"Mr. Shuo Mao, this proposal should be proposed by Mr. Deguang?"

Looking at the black and white words on the paper, Hiruzame Sarutobi was also a little helpless.

The reason why he asked Hatake Sakumo and Uchiha Tokumitsu to form a mobile unit was to let Konoha's most determined heir of the will of fire to infect Uchiha Tokumitsu, a rebellious person.

But unexpectedly, Hatake Sakumo was completely bewitched and brainwashed by Uchiha Tokumitsu...

Although the Hokage family, especially Danzo, has done something wrong in the attitude towards Uchiha Tokumitsu and the Uchiha family, is there nothing wrong with the Uchiha family?

Why didn't Danzo ambush the Hyuga patriarch instead of ambush Uchiha Tokumitsu? Isn't this a good explanation?

Hiruzaru Sarutobi, whose thoughts wandered, became more and more angry.

"Master Hokage..."

Hatake Sakumo looked inquiringly at the third Sarutobi Hiruzen who looked strange.

"...Peace is a good thing after all."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi, the third generation, immediately reacted, gently put down the proposal in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "It's just that this action has the risk of war after all, and the village still needs careful consideration before proceeding."

"I see……"

Hatake Sakumo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Then Hokage-sama, let's think about it slowly. I can try to mediate in the name of the Reform Association."

"Mr. Shuo Mao!"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi almost fainted when he heard the words.

What do you mean let him think about it slowly!

Could it be that the power of the supreme leader of the village is now so blatantly coming? !

"The village cannot tolerate people who walk alone!"

"Master Three Generations, have you forgotten Master Tokaima?"

Hatake Sakumo replied softly.

As soon as this remark came out, Hiruzen Sarutobi was also taken aback for a moment.

Toshima teacher...

This reminded him again of the unforgettable night when he and the Second Daime went to Yun Yin many years ago, after being attacked by Jin Horn and Yin Horn, he couldn't escape...

He originally wanted to say that the matter was over and Yun Yin had already apologized, so there was no need to pursue it further.

But I opened and closed my mouth several times, but I couldn't speak.

No matter how cunning and scheming he is, he still has a brood on what happened back then.

"Go and do whatever you want..."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi III took out his pipe, and his hand that filled the tobacco shivered slightly.

"But I have two requests, you have to promise me..."

Taking a deep puff of the pipe, Hiruzen Sarutobi said seriously.

"Master Hokage, please tell me..."

Hatake Sakumo nodded.

"First, the ninja army in the village cannot launch an attack on Yunyin first..."

"no problem!"

Hatake Sakumo agreed without thinking about it.

If Uchiha Deguang really wants to make things bigger, there are many ways to bypass this condition.

Besides, the Kirigakure Guiyi tri-clan ninja army under the command of the Tokuko shogunate is not Konoha ninja;

"Second, I will send Mitomen's consultant to Yunyin to discuss this matter. Don't act rashly until there is a result..."

"As ordered."

Hatake Sakumo also agreed.

"Go."

After finishing speaking, Hiruzaru Sarutobi closed his eyes.

Hatake Sakumo bowed and saluted, then got up and left.

"Teacher Tokai..."

After a long time, the faint exclamation of Hiruzaru Sarutobi III resounded in the Hokage office, which was as quiet as a needle falling.

He knew that this time, Hatake Sakumo had taken advantage of him.

If it were Uchiha Tokumitsu, he would definitely not be able to think of such heart attacking words.

More importantly, as a contemporary Hokage, no matter whether it is public or private, emotional or reasonable, he cannot refuse such a reason.

Even if there is a great possibility that it will lead to a direct conflict or even a large-scale war between Konoha and Yun Yin.

"Fortunately, Kirigakure is still harassing the coast of the Land of Thunder, and Yunyin may not be able to mobilize much power..."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi, the third generation, quickly calculated the recent ninja intelligence and situation analysis in his mind, and unexpectedly discovered that mediation is actually feasible to a certain extent.

Although the result of the mediation may cause Yun Yin, who has accumulated grievances, to provoke a conflict with Konoha again at a certain time in the future, but the future has not yet arrived, and the most important thing is to deal with the present.

What's more, Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo are aggressive and aggressive. If they can't make some achievements, who knows how much future there will be?

Thinking of this, Hiruzaru Sarutobi cheered up, shook the bell on the table to recruit Anbu, and whispered to him.

After Anbu got the order, he immediately went to the Sarutobi shogunate resident in the northern part of the country of fire.

Afterwards, he issued another handwritten letter, ordering the Sarutobi clan to immediately and secretly assemble the ninja army just in case.

Although he intends to have a game with Yun Yin, he is still worried that the eldest son who is stationed in the northern border will have an accident during the so-called "mediation" this time, so he still needs to make extra preparations.

In addition, the shogunate ninja army under Uchiha Tokumitsu marched northward. Although it was claimed to be a reserve team, it still made him somewhat uneasy.

...

Following orders issued by Hatake Sakumo from the Konoha Military Command, the huge war machine of Konoha Ninja Village immediately started.

First, the mobile unit directly under the Ninja Squad was transferred to the Fire Gate Shogunate in the northwest to act, and then the northern border defense force, led by Sarutobi Shinnosuke, brazenly crossed the border and entered the cache Oguni Tanokuni.

Subsequently, the Tokuko shogunate, which attracted the most attention, also deployed a ninja army to the north to deploy defenses in the northern part of the country of fire.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Konoha's layout is aimed at Yunyin.

In addition to being at war with Kirigakure, Yun Yin issued an ultimatum to Konoha's nominal vassal Yuren village in the name of tracking down the tail beast a while ago...

Immediately afterwards, the Naruto Building's public declaration verified the conjectures of other countries in the ninja world.

Konoha announced to officially intervene in the conflict between Yunyin and Urenin, and asked both parties to exercise restraint and not to start a war rashly.

At the same time, Mito Menyan, the elder of Konoha's adviser, was also ordered to go to Yunyin to mediate peace matters.

I held a one-day quality meeting today. I don’t know if I can make it in time for the second chapter. It may not be until after midnight.
