Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Cloud Hidden Village’s Terrifying Combat Power
After Ryosuke left, Fugaku then began to mobilize the ninjas inside the clan.
The clan members inside the clan had long since had the awareness, very much cooperating with the clan leader's arrangements. As for not having the support of Konoha's higher-ups, the proud Uchiha clan also did not need to cooperate.
Uchiha Itachi this time did not participate in the battle but instead stayed in the village.
This time they also selected 100 Chunin and fifteen Jonin to come out.
Naturally, they still needed to leave behind a portion of the clan members to guard the clan and maintain the operation of the police force.
Uchiha Fugaku specially invited the Grand Elder to come out and support, presiding over the clan's major affairs. The Grand Elder naturally did not refuse.
He learned that this time Ryosuke was actually going to participate in such a great battle, and in his heart, he could not help but be a bit worried. He specially instructed him to protect his own safety.
The Hyuga clan likewise dispatched 50 Chunin and ten Jonin to go to the border to participate in the battle.
All the participants in the battle gathered at Konoha's village gate.
At Fugaku's command, the great force mightily set out toward the border between Konoha Village and Cloud Hidden Village.
After they set out, Anbu Kakashi, who was hiding in the shadows observing, then returned to the Hokage to report to the Third Hokage.
Inside the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage was sitting in his seat. Seeing that Kakashi had already entered, he then opened his mouth to ask.
"Has the Uchiha clan already set out? That Uchiha Ryosuke should have also followed and set out, right?"
Kakashi nodded and said, "Yes, they have already set out. I saw that Uchiha Ryosuke among the people going to battle."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was very happy in his heart. Danzo had already informed him that he had already sent someone to deliver the message to the Fourth Raikage of Cloud Hidden Village.
He believed that the Fourth Raikage would not refuse his proposal. Although it sacrificed a portion of the village's interests, as long as Uchiha Ryosuke could be eliminated, then it was all worth it.
It would be best if Cloud Hidden Village could wipe out most of the Uchiha clan's members.
And under his command, Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui could also take the opportunity to take over the authority of the Uchiha clan.
Then the relationship between the village and the Uchiha clan could be completely eased.
As for the Hyuga clan. They would rather believe the words of the Uchiha clan members than stand on his Hokage's side.
This time, he would just treat it as giving them a lesson.
Inside the office, Kakashi hesitated about whether to offer advice to the Hokage. But he was serving under the Hokage. After thinking for a long time, he made up his mind.
After all, this was a war, concerning the village's future, and this matter was truly too strange.
"Hokage-sama, this time assigning the strength of two clans to deal with Cloud Hidden Village's attack, isn't it not very good?"
The Third Hokage was displeased in his heart but still pretended to say.
"The Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan are both great clans in the village, with outstanding combat power, enough to handle Cloud Hidden Village. No need to worry."
Kakashi did not know what to say. He just felt that this was very strange. Maybe the Hokage had miscalculated something, but actually, the Hokage should not have miscalculated anything.
Maybe this was just the battle between the higher-ups. It would be better for him to participate less.
"I understand, Hokage-sama."
Afterward, Kakashi then withdrew.
The Third Hokage then looked at the list that Danzo had sent over on the desk, which was exactly the list of the needed personnel.
On it were written Aburame Torune from the Aburame clan, a genius figure of the Aburame clan, and Yamanaka Fū from the Yamanaka clan, also a genius-level figure.
Aburame Torune was even a special genius in the Aburame clan. The other was skilled in the Mind-Body Switch Technique.
Truly two good seedlings. Danzo did well this time, so he would just give them to him.
A few days later, the two-clan allied forces were already about to approach the border between Konoha Village and Cloud Hidden Village.
Fugaku immediately ordered to set up camp and rest, maintaining enough energy to deal with Cloud Hidden Village's ninjas.
At this moment, Uchiha Fugaku, Ryosuke, and Hachiyo were quietly waiting in the tent for the return of the Hyuga clan leader. Because earlier, the Hyuga clan leader personally led a few of his Hyuga clan members to scout.
As for the Hyuga clan's Byakugan scouting ability, the few of them had no doubts. Byakugan's scouting ability was far stronger than their Sharingan.
About an hour later, the Hyuga clan leader then walked into the tent. This time, he personally led the team to the border to scout the enemy's situation.
It was enough to show his caution. After all, this time, their two clans' battle personnel was considered few.
A little carelessness and it would be a complete defeat, so he took the initiative to undertake the scouting mission.
It was also because his Byakugan pupil power far surpassed the clan members'. Ordinary clan members' Byakugan could only observe things within one kilometer, while he could even observe things beyond one kilometer.
But after scouting the opponent's main combat power, his face became even heavier.
Uchiha Fugaku, seeing the Hyuga clan leader walk into the tent, opened his mouth to ask.
"Hyuga clan leader, how is the situation?"
The Hyuga clan leader opened his mouth and said.
"This time Cloud Hidden Village also came with only 300 people, twice our scale."
"But the main combat power is somewhat terrifying. Not only the Two-Tails Jinchuriki but even the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and the Fourth Raikage have already come."
Hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku and Hachiyo both had solemn expressions. The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was a war weapon second only to the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki had once fought fiercely with Konoha's Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato and was only slightly at a disadvantage.
Now, four years later, that Eight-Tails Jinchuriki had probably become even stronger.
And the Two-Tails Jinchuriki was even said to be a perfect Jinchuriki.
These two people were at least comparable to Kage-level powerhouses, and actually, both had been sent out.
It seemed that Cloud Hidden Village's Tailed Beasts could now exert normal combat power; otherwise, they wouldn't have been deployed.
As for the Fourth Raikage, he was a powerhouse among Kage-level figures.
The successive generations of Raikage had never had weak individuals.
The difference in military strength was somewhat large, and the opponent's high-level combat power was even more terrifying.
They had two clan leader-level figures here, but it was very difficult for them to single-handedly defeat a Tailed Beast. It could even be said that it was almost impossible. They could only just barely hold them back.
They needed supporting ninjas' help to trap and seal them.
At this time, the Hyuga clan leader said.
"I am confident I can hold back the Fourth Raikage myself. Clan leader Fugaku should also be able to hold back a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki. But the opponent still has one more Tailed Beast Jinchuriki. What should we do?"
"Even if we pull out some ninjas to confront them, we will still be at a disadvantage, right?"
Hyuga Hiashi analyzed the current battle situation. Even if they divided into three battlefronts, all three fronts were at a disadvantage. He simply could not see any possibility of victory.
Fugaku acknowledged the Hyuga clan leader's words.
"Ryosuke, what do you think we should do?"
Both Hyuga Hiashi and Uchiha Hachiyo looked at Uchiha Ryosuke.
Ryosuke was somewhat speechless.
Although Hyuga Hiashi analyzed very clearly, he had overlooked that they also had a powerhouse here—him.
The present Hyuga Hiashi and Uchiha Hachiyo both looked at Uchiha Ryosuke.
In Hyuga Hiashi's eyes, he speculated that this Uchiha Ryosuke should be a strong person of the Uchiha clan; otherwise, Fugaku would not seek his opinion.
In Hachiyo's eyes, Ryosuke was their radical faction's representative figure, so naturally, his opinion should be heard. After all, he was the strong one who even kicked away the black-clothed man, the culprit of the Nine-Tails incident.
Ryosuke slowly said, "According to the information brought by the Hyuga clan leader, the number of people coming this time from the other side is twice ours."
"There are even two great Tailed Beasts and the Fourth Raikage personally coming to battle."
"The situation is really quite urgent."
"I propose that the two clan leaders hold back the opposing Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, while I will strive to eliminate the opposing Two-Tails Jinchuriki and then go support others."
"I wonder what you all think?"
Although he estimated his own strength to be beyond Kage level, after all, it was just an estimate.
