In the Uchiha meeting hall.
Now all the ninjas above the Jonin level in the family have gathered here.
Compared with the last time the clan leader was selected, the number of people was much smaller.
After all, almost all the Jonin were summoned last time.
But now, Uchiha Ishiki, Uchiha Retsu and others have been sent out to guard the border defense.
"What's going on? A meeting was held suddenly."
"I don't know, but the face of the person who came to inform me was ugly."
"It's only been three months since the truce with Senju, is something going to happen again?"
"Shut up, you're lucky to have three months of rest."
The Jonin below whispered.
Boom~~
The door to the council chamber was opened, and Madara and Izuna quickly walked in.
"Clan leader, deputy leader!"
All the clansmen said in unison.
Madara waved his hand for everyone to sit down, and he also sat in the clan leader's seat, nodding to Uchiha Yuki.
Uchiha Inosuke, who was standing on the other side, nodded, opened a map, pointed to the northwest of the Uchiha tribe, and drew several circles with a pen.
"Just now we received news from the Northwest Defense that the four ninja clans led by the Hagoromo clan, Fuma, Watanabe, Saito, and Onikawa have begun to approach our Uchiha northwest garrison."
"What?!"
"Hagoromo... and Fuma and the others..."
"This old bastard Masashige Hagoromo actually dares to take advantage of the situation. Didn't he suffer enough from ten years ago?"
The tribesmen below were all filled with indignation.
If the Uchiha Senju were the two top families in the Warring States Period, then Hagoromo could be considered among the "first-class".
But after losing to the Uchiha led by Uchiha Tajima in a battle ten years ago, he could only be at the bottom of the first-class ninja clan.
Unexpectedly, ten years later, not long after Madara Uchiha assumed the position of clan leader, they would make a comeback.
"Although it has not yet been investigated why they did this, I don't think there is any need to investigate."
The second elder, Uchiha Retsu, blew his beard and glared.
Everyone nodded secretly in their hearts.
This is obvious, just four words: take advantage of the situation.
In the previous battle from Mountain, although the battle was forced to be suspended.
However, the news of Uchiha's narrow defeat, which was at a disadvantage, gradually spread throughout the Warring States Period as time went on.
The Hagoromo clan, which already had a grudge against Uchiha, would not let this opportunity pass by.
As for the other four races, they are not good either.
Or it should be said that the entire Warring States ninja clan did not have a fuel-efficient lamp.
Uchiha and Senju occupy very rich land and resources.
If Senju is in a weak position, they will also attack Senju.
That is to say - eat the persimmons and pick out the soft ones.
Izuna rubbed his temples. This way reminded him of the history he had studied before.
During the Warring States Period, many countries united to conquer more fertile land.
"Deputy Chief, what should we do now?"
Uchiha Retsu asked Izuna.
After more than three months of fermentation, Izuna has become a Senior level the Uchiha clan.
From the elders to the ordinary clan members, everyone wanted to hear his thoughts.
"Avoid fighting."
Izuna said two words lightly and added: "Defend the city to avoid the war."
If it were Madara, I'm afraid he would have said, "Let's rush over and kill them without leaving a single piece of armor behind."
"Yes, we're going to avoid fighting and recuperate."
A clan member below immediately agreed, but then worried: "But the Senju clan located to the east of us..."
At the mention of Senju, all the tribesmen fell silent.
The news that the five clans were attacking Uchiha would soon reach Senju's ears.
Will they stand still until then?
impossible!
If you think about it from his perspective, if it were Senju who was in trouble now, he would not let go of this opportunity and immediately kill him with his sword.
Truce?
Isn't that just a piece of paper?
"Over the northwest defense line, I will personally lead the reinforcements."
Izuna said, "Of course, Mountain also has to take precautions, but before Senju takes official action, don't be impatient and wait for news from me."
This is all we can do for now.
Now that Madara is the leader of the clan, he can no longer go to the front lines at will.
Moreover, he needs to stay in the clan area and prepare to deal with the Senju clan in the east who may take action at any time.
Returning to the mansion, he changed the robe he had worn in the past few months into a black shirt and red armor.
When Izuna finished packing and was preparing to leave overnight,he met Madara waiting at the door.
"Izuna, it seems that you haven't finished speaking at the meeting."
Izuna shrugged and smiled, "Senju won't take action."
Madara frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he replied: "It's impossible, right.
If you put yourself in the opponent's shoes, there is no reason not to take advantage of the situation.
"At least on the surface, Senju Hashirama, the deputy clan leader, will never agree to send troops."
Izuna was betting on Senju Hashirama. With this guy around, at least Senju would not dare to send troops for a short period of time.
"Do you really trust that guy Hashirama?"
When Izuna heard this,he couldn't help but get goosebumps. Why did this sound a bit gay?
"It's not trust, it's speculation."
"Have you already figured out how to deal with Hagoromo?"
Madara asked again.
"Honestly, no."
Izuna really told the truth this time, and now he can only wait until he arrives and adapt to the opponent's strategy.
Madara bit his lip twice, and finally managed to spit out a few words, "Be careful."
"certainly."
Uchiha's Northwest Frontier Garrison Camp.
Uchiha Rinah, a contemporary of Uchiha Tajima, serves as the supreme commander.
In two days and one night,Izuna led a troop to arrive.
It is said to be a camp, but it is actually built from a dilapidated stone city.
There are also some traders and civilians here.
There were basically only two prosperous places in the Warring States Period:
One is the homeland of the great ninja clan.
The second is the capital ruled by the Daimyo and guarded by ninjas.
Izuna and his team had just entered the city. As soon as they stepped through the city gate, two Uchiha ninjas appeared in front of Izuna using the teleportation technique before their back feet came in.
"Deputy leader, Master Kong has been waiting for you for a long time."
The two of them knelt down on one knee.
After two days and one night of traveling, you will feel a little tired more or less, but at the moment, no one dares or thinks of taking a rest.
It is located in a repaired stone temple on the hillside of the city.
Uchiha Rinah, who had not seen him for more than three months, saw Izuna arriving and said, "Izuna... no, he is the deputy chief now."
"Minister Rina, what is the current situation?"
Izuna raised his hand to stop Uchiha Rina's official tone.
"Ah, it's very urgent. This bastard Masashige Hagoromo really wants to take revenge for what happened ten years ago!"
After Uchiha Rina cursed a few times, he opened the map and began to explain the current situation to Izuna and others.
