Ryōsuke said slowly.
"According to the intelligence brought by the Hyūga Head, the number of enemies this time is double ours."
"They even have two great Tailed Beasts, and the Fourth Raikage is personally joining the battle."
"The situation is indeed quite urgent."
"I propose that the two clan heads stall the enemy's Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki, while I strive to eliminate their Two-Tails Jinchūriki and then go to support the others."
"I wonder what you all think?"
Although he estimated his strength to be at the Super Kage-level, it was just an estimate, after all.
It was better to be more cautious at a time like this. The Two-Tails Jinchūriki should be an easier target to handle.
Compared to the other two, her strength should be a bit lower.
When the Hyūga Head heard his words, he was extremely surprised. 'Can this guy really kill a Tailed Beast Jinchūriki?'
'Is it arrogance or is he posturing?'
He wouldn't assume the other was just posturing, much less tell such a lie on an occasion like this.
Even Fugaku had no intention of refuting him.
'I never expected this person before me, so young, to actually possess such combat power.'
'In contrast, his daughter Hinata still has a weak appearance. He felt a bit upset in his heart.'
'In his clan, only his younger brother's son, Hyūga Neji, could be considered a top genius.'
'But they are from the branch house. Even if he was willing to let this genius carry the clan's banner, the clan's elders would not agree.'
'When it comes to geniuses in the clan, this generation of the Uchiha Clan is truly full of talent.'
'Many, and strong.'
He also spoke.
"Since Ryōsuke is confident he can eliminate a Tailed Beast Jinchūriki, let him handle the Two-Tails Jinchūriki."
"I will handle the Fourth Raikage. The opponent is a taijutsu ninja, and my Hyūga Clan also excels at taijutsu. I should be able to stall him."
"In that case, Clan Head Fugaku will handle the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki. The Sharingan should be able to exert some influence on the Tailed Beast, right?"
"As long as the two of us stall the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki, and then have Ryōsuke defeat his opponent and support the main army, this war will have a possibility of victory. At the very least, we can maintain an undefeated position."
He felt this arrangement was very sensible.
It allowed him to see the hope of victory, and this hope was brought by a member of the Uchiha Clan.
'So this is the Uchiha Clan's confidence.'
'To actually have produced such a formidable young man.'
'Being able to defeat a Two-Tails Jinchūriki is already a rare level of combat power.'
'The Uchiha Clan's Sharingan genjutsu can even be used on Tailed Beasts, so they should have an advantage when facing the enemy's Tailed Beast Jinchūriki.'
'As for himself, he would try his best to remain undefeated. It wasn't that he wasn't confident, but the Fourth Raikage's taijutsu was also at the pinnacle level of the current ninja world.'
Fugaku also felt that what the other said made a lot of sense. 'Indeed, his Sharingan genjutsu can affect a Tailed Beast Jinchūriki.'
'Ryōsuke should be the strongest of the three of them. If he quickly eliminates the Two-Tails Jinchūriki and then goes to help the allied ninja forces of the two clans, the victory in this war will tilt in their favor.'
He looked at Ryōsuke.
"Ryōsuke, the victory of this war depends on you."
Ryōsuke nodded. 'It's just as I thought. This war really does depend on me.'
'I can also use the Two-Tails Jinchūriki to test my own combat power.'
At this time, Fugaku looked at the Hyūga Head.
"Then it's settled. In addition, I'll have to trouble the Hyūga Head to send people to keep a close watch on the surroundings, so the main army can rest and recuperate properly. Tomorrow, we will go to war with the Cloud Village."
The Hyūga Head nodded. This kind of task still had to be done by their Hyūga Clan.
In the Cloud Village's camp stationed at the border.
The Fourth Raikage had already learned of the arrival of the Leaf Village's allied ninja forces through his spies.
'It really is only people from these two clans. Both clans are easy to distinguish. The pupils of the Hyūga Clan are different from ordinary people; they are white.'
'As for the Uchiha Clan, even wearing the green vest, they have their unique clan crest on their backs, the fan-shaped crest.'
'I didn't expect really only these two clans' ninja to come. It seems that letter wasn't lying.'
'This time, I must eat both of these clans.'
'And greatly reduce the Leaf Village's power.'
'What foolish Leaf Village upper echelons.'
'The Leaf's upper echelons think they've won their internal strife, but they don't know that after this, their Leaf Village will also be sunk deep in a quagmire.'
'The Land of Fire is surrounded by three great powers: the Sand Village from the Land of Wind, the Mist Village from the Land of Water, and his Cloud Village from the Land of Lightning.'
'All of them have thoughts of nibbling away at the Land of Fire.'
'Who's to blame? The territory of the Leaf Village and the Land of Fire is the most fertile in the ninja world, and its population is also the largest.'
'Who wouldn't be tempted by such a large piece of land?'
'After taking down these two clans this time, his Cloud Village will become the strongest ninja village in the ninja world. At the same time, I will also make the Land of Fire spit out a large chunk of fertile land.'
He immediately had his subordinates pass down the order.
"Everyone rest well. Tomorrow, prepare for slaughter."
The border between the two countries was a wide-open place, suitable for a deadly battle.
The next day.
The allied ninja forces of the two Leaf Village clans also slowly advanced towards the border. With the reconnaissance of the Hyūga Clan's Byakugan, they weren't worried about encountering any threats. Moreover, the terrain was becoming more and more open, with nowhere for anyone to hide.
At the same time, the Fourth Raikage led his large ninja army, also arriving at the border. The two armies faced each other from a distance.
Uchiha Fugaku looked at the Fourth Raikage, who was wearing a headguard with the character for "Four" on it, and questioned loudly.
"Fourth Raikage, you have gathered a large army near our Land of Fire's border. What is the meaning of this? Are you trying to start a war again?"
The Fourth Raikage, however, did not say a word. 'It's just as the letter said. It really is an allied force of two clans, and their numbers are small.'
'His Cloud Village is not only superior in high-end combat power—after all, they brought Tailed Beast Jinchūriki this time.'
'Their numbers of jōnin and chūnin are also double the opponent's. This war is in the bag.'
He said with a smile.
"Your Leaf Village killed my Cloud Village's peace envoy and still hasn't given our Cloud Village an explanation. We are only dispatching troops because we want to demand justice. Don't think our Cloud Village is easy to bully."
"Before the war starts, as long as you hand over that Hyūga Head and that bastard named Uchiha Ryōsuke to us, we will immediately withdraw our troops."
'Withdrawing the troops is, of course, impossible.'
'If the other side hands over the Hyūga Head, it would weaken their top combat power and also strike a blow to their morale. It kills multiple birds with one stone.'
