With the end of the meeting.
The old machine of Konohagakure had to speed up its operation again.
If the previous invasion of Kumogakure Village made the machine run with some oil, now it was running on boiling water.
And the consequences of forcibly using this machine would be imaginable after it ended.
On the way back to the clan's land.
Fugaku seemed a bit excited.
He took the initiative to find Hyuga Hitoshi and patted his chest with loyalty.
"Brother Hitoshi, no need to thank me, that's what I should do. I've long been displeased with those two old fools!"
The meaning between the lines was clear.
Those two slaps from Hokage were his, Hitoshi didn't need to worry.
Hyuga Hitoshi also gave Brother Fugaku high praise for this.
"Brother, you're tough. Today, you showed me the invincible style of the Uchiha clan during the Warring States period!"
But in reality, Fugaku didn't know.
His actions actually saved those two advisors.
After all, if even Fugaku can understand it, Hyuga Hitoshi can definitely understand it too.
Don't be fooled by the two old advisors who seem highly respected and indispensable in the village. In reality, their role during wartime is minimal.
Even in normal times, their "highly respected" status brings more harm than good to Konohagakure.
It's not that the position of Hokage advisor is problematic, but the people in that position are.
Looking at the lives of Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, it's clear they haven't contributed much to Konohagakure.
So at this critical moment, even if Hyuga Hitoshi killed the two advisors on the spot, Sarutobi would have to grit his teeth and endure it!
The Third Hokage didn't hold back and slapped each of them, which was actually helping them out. If Hyuga Hitoshi had acted, it wouldn't have been just two slaps.
To be blunt, he just came back from the moon with new powers; he wouldn't tolerate this insult.
The two wooden men who tried to kill him but got captured were his trophies.
If he didn't give them, no one could take them. If anyone dared to try, he would fight them!
After the fight, the old village chief would have to praise him for it.
However, Fugaku wanted to show off first, and Hyuga Hitoshi didn't compete for the opportunity. After all, there would be plenty of chances to show off, and it wouldn't hurt to do Fugaku a favor.
But Fugaku's fluctuating intelligence was becoming more obvious.
For example, during his argument with the old village chief, Hyuga Hitoshi was surprised when Fugaku suggested adding the fact that the Uchiha clan were the founders of Konohagakure to the ninja school textbooks.
This move was quite clever, and even Hitoshi admired it. The old village chief's expression changed, and he reluctantly agreed.
After all, this was originally the old village chief's tactic, called brainwashing from a young age.
If this was implemented, the higher-ups would have to think twice before acting against the Uchiha in the future.
However, Hitoshi believed that Fugaku's request was just to show off. The Uchiha clan, despite having a few mentally unstable members, never strayed from their essence.
No matter what path they took, they always stuck to their core strategy of showing off whenever possible.
They have always been like this, staying true to themselves for a thousand years, and they still love to show off.
This is truly admirable, as it has become ingrained in their bones and soul.
"There's not much else to say. On the battlefield, I hope you can help me out."
Fugaku, who had seen Hyuga Hitoshi in action before, couldn't forget the scene, but he also reciprocated.
"I can't promise much, but the Uchiha clan will never abandon the Hyuga clan. That's a promise I can make."
Fugaku looked sincere.
Hitoshi nodded and agreed to Fugaku's request.
As the Uchiha clan's only ally, he clearly believed Fugaku's words. But how long this trust and alliance would last depended on Fugaku himself.
At the crossroads.
Since they didn't end up as neighbors with the Uchiha clan, they had to take different paths.
After a brief farewell, they hurried back to their respective clan territories.
The meeting ended.
The strategy to support the front line was decided.
But since the situation was urgent, it was impossible to come up with any amazing tactics.
Moreover, there were only so many people in the village who could support, and time was tight, so there weren't many choices given by the Third Hokage.
Fugaku chose to lead his clan members and the ninjas gathered again by the Hokage-sama to support from the front battlefield.
The Hyuga clan, due to the strategic importance of their Byakugan, needed to send more people to various battlefields to act as contact points and scouts to relay information.
Apart from those clan members scattered into other teams, Patriarch Hitoshi would lead the other clan members to break through from the flank, becoming a sharp blade.
However, orders were orders, and the situation on the front line was still unknown.
Plans could never keep up with changes. According to Hyuga Hitoshi's calculations, so-called tactics were useless, as this battlefield was within the Land of Fire, which was flat and open, relying on hard power.
Moreover, thanks to Danzo-sama's brilliant strategy, Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village could directly take what they needed within the Land of Fire, so their supplies were not lacking in the short term, making sneak attacks from behind useless.
Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village probably planned to push through in one go, and if they couldn't, they would think of something else.
At this stage, ninjas were being used as soldiers, and it was likely to turn into a chaotic battle with countless people fighting together.
Konohagakure.
The new territory of the Hyuga clan.
The news had already been sent back.
Because the front line could break at any time, the clan members had already gathered quickly.
"Patriarch, Lord Hizashi sent me a message."
Hyuga Ushiuma respectfully walked over and reported the situation.
"The route to move the clan members is not safe, and the relocation plan has been forced to stop. What do you think?"
The Land of Fire was not peaceful, with most areas under enemy control. To move safely, a lot more people would be needed.
Hyuga Hitoshi had enough people, but he felt that if they made too much noise, it would be troublesome if the enemy noticed the Hyuga clan's movements.
Moreover, he took on the role of the sharp blade to clear a safe route first.
"Tell Hizashi and Hiashi to wait. We will inform them once the route is arranged."
He gave simple instructions.
Hitoshi looked at the gathered clan members.
As a prestigious family in Konohagakure, the Hyuga clan had always had many members.
Even though some were on the moon dealing with the Otsutsuki, the large group gathered in the suburbs was still impressive.
Although the wars in the ninja world seemed like just a few villages fighting, with only tens of thousands of deaths, compared to real world wars in the past life, it was like child's play.
But this was a different world, and the brutality and bloodiness of war were not much different.
Taking a step forward meant blood and sacrifice.
And these in front of me are all living people.
Since being reborn and merging with memories of my past life, Hyuga Hitoshi has long considered the Hyuga clan as his family, and these clan members as his relatives. He has integrated into them.
The heavy weight on his shoulders is called responsibility!
But Hyuga Hitoshi knows that the reason for the Hyuga clan to charge into battle is not just for Konohagakure, but also truly for the clan itself.
Killing one more enemy means facing one less enemy if they choose to be independent in the future.
So in this battle, not only do they have to kill, but they have to kill as many as possible!
Thinking of this, Patriarch Hitoshi took a step forward with a murderous look. Even without using the Byakugan's pressure, the clan members in front of him felt an unprecedented sense of oppression from him!
The Patriarch leads the charge.
The clan members are full of momentum!
The atmosphere has been built up to this point, saying anything else would be dull. The words that came out naturally turned into a roar that shook the sky.
"Fight!"
