Chapter 25: Volunteering
It seems to be because of Chihiro's answer.
Suzaku's expression also eased a lot.
In the final analysis, vigilance is vigilance; the Uchiha clan is still one of the most important parts of Konoha and is still the companion of these people. Even if it needs to be quoted, it is impossible to treat it as an enemy. That will only make the real enemy laugh. After all, Suzaku does not believe that the Uchiha clan wants to abandon Konoha. Even if there is, it is only a part of the people. Most of the Uchiha clan members should just have poor brains.
This is Suzaku's opinion.
A certain degree of suppression and temptation.
It is necessary to grasp the degree.
This is also the most challenging part for Suzaku.
However, judging from the current situation, the probability is still the best result.
Suzaku looked at Chihiro's leaving figure and thought secretly in his heart.
Suzaku did not deceive Chihiro. The personnel configuration change this time was indeed a routine change. The personnel who needed to be sent to the base in the Hot Spring Mountain area were not only the Uchiha clan, but Nara Suzaku himself also needed to lead the team to go there in person.
The most important reason is naturally that the attack intensity and attack frequency of the Hidden Cloud Village in that area are the highest.
During this period.
The death and injury rate of Konoha ninjas in Hot Spring Mountain has reached a new high.
If there is no support in the next few days.
The base there may even be directly removed by the Cloud Ninja.
Uchiha is currently the clan with the strongest single-soldier combat capability in Konoha Ninja Village.
No matter from which point of view.
It is the best existence to be sent to the Hot Springs Mountain base.
This was also a consensus reached by the Third Hokage and Suzaku before the initial departure. It was not a conspiracy to send the Uchiha clan to their deaths. Not to mention that this method was too low; once this was done, it would easily affect the front-line defense.
If it caused a bad result.
This was not what the Third Hokage wanted to see.
It was not something Suzaku could afford.
Chihiro was only a little angry at the beginning, and after a little thought, he chose to obey the order directly. If there was a big trick in it, Chihiro would have to be crazy to agree.
And in the end.
Sarutobi Hiruzen is not Shimura Danzo.
For this Third Hokage, who has regained the throne in his ninja village.
Many people in the Uchiha clan, even if they can't say they like him, at least they will not hysterically reject and hate him. Compared with Shimura Danzo, the gap is still very obvious.
This time, the personnel configuration is certainly different from the previous one, but after all, it is not only the Uchiha clan that has personnel changes, but also Nara, Aburamezuka, and Nara Suzaku, the coordinator, all need to go directly to the defense line in the Hot Spring Mountain area.
Therefore,
When Chihiro returned to the tent where the clan gathered with this news.
Most of the Uchiha clan members just grumbled a few more words.
There was not much emotional fluctuation.
As long as they were not treated differently.
There were only a few older Uchiha clan members who showed a hint of worry in the depths of their pupils. They did not believe that the village was plotting to harm their Uchiha clan, not only because they believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen would not be so dirty, but more importantly, because this was the front-line battlefield, and a little carelessness could easily cause hemorrhage. Only a guy with water in his brain would do this.
But the conspiracy would not.
There is a high probability of an open conspiracy.
It does not necessarily mean that they want to focus on the Uchiha clan.
Just a little bias in the reasonable deployment.
The Uchiha clan sent to the front line will easily suffer losses.
However, this is also a predictable point. Before Chihiro set off, Fugaku also emphasized and explained it many times.
This is also a situation that the Uchiha clan must accept under the management of "game rules.".
In the world of ninjas.
It is also necessary to "follow the rules.".
Masashi, who was a little behind the crowd, also had a slight flash in his eyes.
'Hot spring mountain frontline base? '
Although it is the most dangerous place.
But the more dangerous it is, the easier it is to have more autonomy.
Considering his plans for the future.
Masashi naturally hopes to go to the 'Hot Spring Mountain Stronghold'.
As for his current personal strength, he needs a lot of practical training to adapt and further improve. As for the risks he may encounter, if he is afraid of this and that, Masashi might as well give up his plan as soon as possible.
The most important point is that if he does not do something now,
He will die in five or six years!
There is not much difference here.
It's the same sentence. Unless Masashi can ruthlessly abandon everything and defect alone, otherwise, the road he chooses, even if it is full of thorns, Masashi must grit his teeth and go on. Of course, Masashi is not reckless courage. Although he cannot fully grasp the upper limit of his strength at present.
But when he opens the Mangekyō Sharingan to fight.
A quasi-shadow level that is infinitely close to the shadow level should still be there.
In other words, as long as he didn't fall into a trap surrounded by many people or encounter the most terrifying people in the Hidden Cloud Village, he would win any battle, and at worst, he would be able to escape unscathed.
Therefore,
Almost at the moment when Uchiha Chihiro finished his corresponding instructions and was about to talk about the next personnel deployment.
"Chihiro-san, I want to apply for the Hot Springs Mountain base; please add my name to the list."
Masashi took a step ahead and spoke directly to Uchiha Chihiro in the upper position.
At that moment.
Masashi also attracted the attention of all the clan members present.
It can be said that since the end of the clan meeting a few days ago, Masashi has completely entered the sight of all the Uchiha clan members. Every clan member is impressed by Masashi, not only because of his genius title—it is very rare in the Uchiha clan to be able to open the Sharingan to the three magatama levels at the age of 14.
It was also because of another concept he proposed at the clan meeting.
It touched the hearts of these clan members.
As far as the current reality is concerned, the reason why such a large number of Uchiha clan members appeared on the front lines of the Kingdom of Hotspring was precisely because of Masashi's suggestion. Naturally, these clan members would pay different degrees of attention to Masashi.
There were kind and malicious people, but more of them were curious.
The kind-hearted people felt that Masashi was indeed considering the issue from the perspective of the clan.
The malicious people felt that Masashi was not worthy of being a member of the Uchiha clan and did not have the pride of the Uchiha clan!
The curious people were simply very concerned about why Masashi, a 14-year-old boy, had such an idea and put it into action.
