Chapter 47: Chapter:47
(Need more Patreon members link below ❤️)
The five major kingdoms have not yet been formed, and each city and land is controlled by the ninja clan or city lords.
The Hagoromo clan's clan is located in the west of the future Fire Country, close to the future River Country.
After the battle with the five clan coalition forces, Izuna personally led four hundred Uchiha ninja troops to attack the Hagoromo clan.
It can be said that it was non-stop and I did not feel tired at all.
This annihilation battle requires speed, fast enough!
Fortunately, this battle was also a near miss.
Originally, Hagoromo patriarch had sent most of the clan's high-end combat power to the front line.
And quite a few jonin, when ambushing Sarutobi and Shimura, were tricked and killed by Izuna in the identity of "kaido".
In less than ten days, Izuna completely wiped out Hagoromo, one of the powerful clans of the Warring States Period.
The only ones left were the civilians and foreigners who were responsible for chores within the Hagoromo clan.
Izuna decided to bring these people back to the Northwest Stone City to bring more productivity to the most important but now dilapidated city in the northwest of Uchiha.
Genocide.
This is definitely the most straightforward and riskiest way to obtain resources in the Warring States Period.
In the devastated land of the Hagoromo Clan, Izuna ordered that everything be taken away, and that everything that could not be taken away should be kept and burned.
Food, money, utensils, weapons, and of course, the most important Ninjutsu scrolls.
In addition, as long as the tribesmen brought by Izuna still have some free hands, they will not let go of some decorations and daily necessities.
What moved these people even more was that after the harvest, Izuna issued a second order.
Rewards based on merit.
Based on the number of enemies killed, you can choose what you like from the loot.
This is not so much a reward based on merit, it can be said to be an excessive reward.
Everyone was overjoyed. While receiving the reward, they were also grateful to Izuna
In terms of news and intelligence during the Warring States Period, the speed was extremely slow compared to later generations.
After the battle of I Castle in the northwest of Uchiha was declared over, plus negotiations with the four northwest tribes, and Madara sending reinforcements, Izuna completely wiped out the Hagoromo clan. In short, it took nearly a month.
This series of news gradually spread throughout the Warring States Period.
Of course, those senior families can obtain this information faster.
All the ninja clans were shocked when Uchiha Izuna led only 500 people to defeat the coalition of five clans with a total of more than 2,000.
Among them, the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans who were the Inoshikacho were even more relieved.
Fortunately, they rejected Hagoromo Masashige's invitation,they were even more relieved.
Of course, it's even less certain what the trend will be if Senju joins.
As an old enemy, Senju was the fastest ninja to know the news.
After getting the news, a family meeting was immediately held on the matter.
"Uchiha Izuna really created a miracle. How exactly was it done? Have you investigated it yet?"
Senju kawaragi, who was sitting in the main seat, asked.
Although he still sits in the position of the clan leader, the title of "Strongest Senju" is no longer his. A year ago, Senju Hashirama alone solved more than half of the clan's problems with a single move of Tree World. He started that day as a jounin.
Senju Tobirama, who was in charge of this work, replied: "According to the investigation of my people, it seems that after the five tribes captured the stone city in the northwest of Uchiha, there was an internal fight. When both sides suffered, they were captured by Uchiha izuna. Opportunity."
"Is it because of the differences caused by dividing the results of the war?"
Senju kawaragi pinched his chin. This kind of thing was not uncommon in the Warring States Period.
They were one family during the fight, but after the victory, the families began to turn against each other for the sake of the victory.
This is a bit like a scene where a parent dies and the children fight for the inheritance.
"Does that mean Uchiha Izuna got a bargain? Tsk, good luck boy!"
Senju kawaragi said unhappily.
Senju Tobirama raised his eyebrows. At first glance, this would make people think that Uchiha Izuna was lucky, seizing the opportunity of the enemy's internal fighting and biting the enemy's vital point.
But is all this really such a coincidence?
At this time, one of the top members of the Senju clan, the quasi-kage-level powerhouse Senju Takema, spoke: "Now that Uchiha has received the power of Hagoromo, his overall clan strength must be no less than that of my Senju. What should we do?" Is good?"
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
If we say a year ago, there was still a certain gap between the comprehensive strength of Senju and Uchiha.
By swallowing Hagoromo, the Uchiha had shortened the gap with Senju in one breath, and could even be said to be neck and neck.
This is not what Senju wants to see.
But everyone tacitly agreed not to mention the idea of raiding Uchiha during the truce agreement. They were all in awe of Senju Hashirama who was sitting in the position of deputy leader.
They still can't forget the scene last year when Senju Hashirama beat dozens of Senju jounin with a wooden escape. They can't forget it till now.
Senju Tobirama is the best at this kind of thing. He rubbed his eyebrows, thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "What we have to do now is to strengthen ourselves."
"Master Tobirama, what is the specific plan?"
Someone below asked immediately.
"Is the eldest brother almost old enough to start a family?"
As soon as Senju Tobirama said these words, Senju Hashirama immediately attracted confused eyes.
What does growth have to do with your own life-long events?
Regardless of Senju Hashirama's wooden head, Senju kawaragi, Senju Takema and others reacted immediately.
"Tobirama, you mean... United Uzumaki?"
The Uzumaki clan has a history as long as that of Senju and Uchiha. They are proficient in sealing techniques and live in the island nation of Uzumaki, which is separated by a sea from the ninja continent.
But the Uzumaki clan is special because they live in an island country and they don't like war.
In terms of geographical location, Thousand Hands can be said to be a barrier in front of the Kingdom of Whirlpool.
No matter Uchiha, Hyuga, Sarutobi, Shimura, no matter which clan they are, if they want to fight the Uzumaki, they must first pass the Senju level.
Therefore, in order to avoid war, the Uzumaki clan has been cooperating with the Senju since a long time ago.
The Uzumaki provided the Senju with the provisions, food, and weapons needed for the war from behind. The two sides even had exchanges to learn Ninjutsu from each other.
But don't think that the Uzumaki are weak because they don't like to participate in the war. Their powerful sealing techniques and naturally large amount of chakra are enough to be compared with the Senju.
If a ranking was to be made, it would be enough to rank among the first-class ninja clan.
Senju Tobirama held his head high and said: "Let the eldest brother marry the people of Uzumaki, and ask them to directly participate in the war. As long as we succeed, our Senju's strength will skyrocket and surpass Uchiha in one breath."
Senju Hashirama scratched his face. Anyway, to him, political marriage was nothing strange.
No objection could be thought of, and he had no objection.
