"Hey, Hakari, you're back. Captain Yashiro is looking for you."
Just as Uchiha Hakari returned to his clan, a ninja from the Uchiha clan who was in charge of patrolling the clan's surroundings suddenly landed in front of the road.
" This is Hakari. What does Captain Yashiro want from me?" Hakari Uchiha smiled slightly.
" You'll find out when you go there. It's not that bad ."
Hakari Uchiha was speechless. Apparently, he realized what was going on.
"Okay, thanks, Hakari."
Uchiha Hakari nodded slightly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Turning around, Hakari Uchiha left the clan's territory and headed towards the police department located on the western outskirts of Konoha Village, where the Konoha Prison was also located.
The Nine-Tails Rebellion hadn't happened yet, and the Uchiha clan's territory wasn't on the outskirts of the village, so the police department was quite far away.
The transition wouldn't take long, but regular ninja couldn't jump around the village unless it was an emergency.
Under normal circumstances, the only people who can jump around the village at will are the Anbu, the police department, and the Deep Roots.
Uchiha Hakari did not belong to any of these three parts, so he could only pass by.
The village of Konoha covers an area that is neither large nor small. It is about 400,000 square meters. In terms of a football field, this is about fifty-five football fields.
About twenty minutes later, Uchiha Hakari arrived at the Konoha Police Department and went upstairs to Yashiro's office.
Dong-dong-dong.
"Come in."
Upon entering, Hakari Uchiha bowed slightly and said, " Captain Yashiro ."
"This is Hakari. You came just in time. Let's take your things back."
A smile appeared on Yashiro Uchiha's unsmiling face as he picked up the green vest from the table and threw it down.
Uchiha Hakari reached out to catch it. In the upper right pocket of his vest was a folded paper. Pulling it out, he saw that it was indeed the Chuunin Commission.
"Thank you, Captain Yashiro."
"You're welcome, you deserve it."
"I didn't expect you to kill so many enemies. You are worthy of being the genius of our Uchiha clan."
"Actually, I still feel a little resentful towards you."
"You killed thirty-four enemies, including four chuunin, and you were alone. Plus, you have two magatama-sharingans, and we are in the war period."
"If I could make a decision, I would promote you to the rank of Special Jounin."
Uchiha Hakari deliberately hid half of his achievements and buried his body with an earthen shoot, otherwise it would have been too shocking.
Even though half of the results were hidden, the documents that were presented still attracted the attention of Sarutobi Hiruzen, who even sent ANBU to secretly check them.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen did not think that the Uchiha clan would resort to forgery due to their arrogance, an investigation still had to be carried out.
After Hakari Uchiha unlocked the second Magatama Sharingan and attracted the clan's attention, he used the chakra testing papers to check his own chakra attributes.
In addition to the fire attribute, which all Uchiha ninja possess, there is also the earth attribute and the relatively rare wind attribute.
While it's not as good as a ninja born with all five attributes, three attributes is already quite rare.
With three attributes of chakra, provided one has mastered the corresponding ninjutsu, one can easily deal with enemies of any attribute, and five attributes are no exception.
"It doesn't matter, especially for a jonin. Becoming a jonin is just a matter of time."
Uchiha Hakari didn't look happy about being promoted to Chunin, his face was expressionless and his tone was flat.
"Okay, keep up the good work, come down."
Yashiro Uchiha not only did not feel disgusted by Hakari Uchiha's pride, but he also valued it, as if that was how it should be in the Uchiha clan.
"Farewell, Captain Yashiro."
Holding the chunin's vest, Hakari Uchiha walked out of the office and closed the door.
All the Uchiha ninja he met along the way expressed their congratulations, and Hakari Uchiha responded to them one by one without asking for help.
...
At the same time, Kumogakure, Sunagakure, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure received information about the Battle of Mount Kikyo one after another.
Kumogakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure regretted this, but due to the disastrous defeat, they no longer thought of taking dangerous steps, but planned to persistently attack and go for a frontal assault.
Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage Building, Onoki sits in the Tsuchikage's office, looking over the information about the Battle of Mount Kikyo, his eyes slightly hazy and a thoughtful expression on his face.
Onoki wears a red apron, a green striped vest, and a clay shade hat. He is short, has a large nose, and a rather cheerful appearance.
However, no one in the five major ninja villages dared to look down on this ridiculous Kage even as he grew old, let alone Onoki, who was not that old now.
If Hiruzen Sarutobi is now in the middle of his prime, then Onoki is at the end.
In fact, the shadow that Sarutobi Hiruzen fears the most is Onoki. He is cunning, scheming, stubborn and tough - this is how Onoki appears to us.
"Someone is coming."
"Lord Tsuchikage."
An ANBU from Iwagakure village, wearing a tight khaki combat uniform and a mask, suddenly appeared in front of the table, dropped to one knee, and spoke in a respectful tone.
"Go and tell the elders to come to the meeting."
"Yes".
Fifteen minutes later, in the bright and clean large conference room of the Tsuchikage building, the Tsuchikage and the influential elders of Iwagakure village gathered.
"You all look at this information."
Hearing Onoki's words, the elders picked up the documents lying on the table and looked through them.
"How are you? Did you notice anything?"
After two minutes, Onoki spoke.
"Konoha is truly the number one ninja village in the ninja world. It's truly terrifying that it was able to defeat the surprise attack of the Kumogakure and Sunagakure coalition forces despite fighting on four fronts."
"Can we, Iwagakure, really defeat Konoha?"
As soon as this statement was made, many elders immediately responded.
Onoki's face grew darker and darker as he listened. He slammed his hand on the table and said sternly, " I do not present this document to you in order to imitate their ambitions and destroy my own prestige ."
Onoki's prestige is very high. When he got angry, none of the elders dared to object to him, they all bowed their heads and fell silent.
"Don't take everything at face value!"
"Judging by the information, Konoha's losses are small, and this is despite the fact that even the Hokage himself, Sarutobi Hiruzen, took measures."
"Besides, Kumogakure and Sagakure were able to retake Konoha's door. What does that mean?"
"This shows that Konoha is at the limit of its strength, strong on the outside, but weak on the inside!"
"What happens if this happens again?"
The Iwagakure elder said with a glint in his eye, " It's quite possible that Konoha will break through again, and it will definitely cause a chain reaction ."
"Even if Konoha doesn't sink, it's absolutely impossible to monopolize the fertile lands and rich resources of the Land of Fire."
Onoki gave the Iwagakure elder a cautionary look, then said in a deep voice with a serious expression, " Elder Matsumoto is right ."
"That's why I plan to send a squad that will bypass the Grass Kingdom's battlefield, break into the Fire Kingdom, and fight all the way to Konoha."
The elders of Iwagakure were very excited to hear this, but there was still one elder who was rational enough to voice his objections.
"Lord Tsuchikage, your idea is very good."
"But due to the siege of the Third Raikage, our troops suffered heavy losses. We are fighting Konoha on the front lines, and we have to guard the villages of Kumogakure and Sunagakure. It is difficult to form another army."
Onnoki shook his head and said, " We can definitely be a little bolder ."
"Even though Kumogakure lost the third Raikage and deeply hates us, Kumogakure will have no problem with interests."
"The Kingdom of Fire is a big fat piece of meat dripping with oil. One bite and your mouth will fill with oil. The Kingdom of Earth is at best a small piece of lean meat."
"And we're separated from Iwagakure by an ocean. It's not that easy to prepare enough ships. There's a good chance they won't attack us."
"So we can detach part of the defensive line from the Yunin side, and it should only satisfy the most basic needs."
"If Yunying really loses his mind, then let the front line retreat, lure the enemy deeper, mobilize the troops, and deal Yunying a strong blow."
"What do you think?"
