What the top brass of Konoha Village were worried about, Uchiha Sora knew perfectly well.
Sharingan, Edo Tensei, Flying Thunder God...
Every one of these was something that could make people extremely wary, yet they were all concentrated in one person. This person's age was still so young, one could even say childish.
Once he truly grew up, the amount of change he would bring to the Ninja World!
It was impossible for the top brass of Konoha Village not to have thought about this.
Furthermore, Uchiha Sora held too much information about Konoha Village in his hands; the Konoha top brass had to treat him with caution.
Uchiha Sora looked at Kakashi in front of him and spoke slowly: "Go back and tell the Third Hokage that I have already taken over Grass Ninja Village. This is my territory now. All the unequal cooperation that existed between Grass Ninja Village and Konoha before is now completely void!"
"In the future, if Konoha Village wants to cooperate with me, bring conditions that are enough to move me. Otherwise, it's out of the question!" Uchiha Sora said: "Also, tell the Third Hokage again, if he wants to take back those Ninjutsu and secret technique documents, including the scroll of seals, then bring sufficient conditions to negotiate with me!"
Hearing these words from Uchiha Sora, Kakashi finally understood that Uchiha Sora was determined to develop his own power and rule his own territory; he had completely cut himself off from Konoha.
"Alright, I will convey all your words to the Third Hokage." Kakashi nodded and left with a complex expression.
After Kakashi left, Uchiha Sora looked at Pakura, whose body had recovered, beside him and said: "Send a notice to the Daimyos Residence of the Land of Grass and have the Daimyo of the Land of Grass come to see me."
"Yes." Pakura nodded and replied.
That night, the Daimyo of the Land of Grass hurried to Grass Ninja Village and met Uchiha Sora.
The relationship between the Land of Grass and Grass Ninja Village was actually the same as that between the Land of Fire and Konoha Village.
The Daimyo possessed economic jurisdiction, while the Village possessed military and administrative power. The Village needed to rely on the Daimyos economic sources to maintain itself, while the Daimyo needed the Village's military protection.
Both sides performed their duties and coexisted peacefully.
However, among the forces of small nations, the power of the Daimyo was actually very limited.
Unlike the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, who possessed organizations like the Twelve Guardian Shinobi specifically for protection, the Daimyo of the Land of Grass had at most only a few Jonin guards.
Such power could not compare with Uchiha Sora.
Therefore, after seeing the drastic changes in the Village under his control, the Daimyo of the Land of Grass had been very uneasy. Upon meeting Uchiha Sora, the new leader, he showed great tolerance and understanding, and stated that he would support him, the new leader of Grass Ninja Village, as always.
And all Uchiha Sora had to do was symbolically support him, the Daimyo of the Land of Grass.
In this way, the internal problems of the Land of Grass were basically solved.
...
In the center of Grass Ninja Village, inside the Leaders Residence.
Uchiha Sora sat in the seat of honor, with Zabuza standing behind him, while the elite top brass of Grass Ninja Village gathered below.
The other six Reanimated Elite Shinobi were also lined up on both sides.
This was the first general meeting convened by Uchiha Sora after taking control of Grass Ninja Village.
He conveyed one order after another to the personnel below.
Besides instructing them to maintain the operation of various departments within Grass Ninja Village well, Uchiha Sora specifically selected some applicable Ninjutsu from the various Ninjutsu and secret technique scrolls of Konoha and taught them to some of the people.
These high-level Ninjutsu from Konoha were already considered high-end existences for Ninjas from a small Village like Grass Ninja Village.
Those who received the Ninjutsu rewards were all very happy and expressed their loyalty on the spot, making the other Grass Ninjas envious and jealous.
Uchiha Sora stated that anyone who performed well in the future would have the opportunity to practice those high-level Ninjutsu.
In this way, the hearts of these old members of Grass Ninja Village were settled.
After using the reward mechanism to win over these Grass Ninjas, Uchiha Sora decided to establish a massive intelligence organization.
This was also the real purpose of him taking down Grass Ninja Village.
Because what he valued was not the strength of these people in Grass Ninja Village, but the population of this Village.
With this population, he could establish an intelligence and spy organization to collect all kinds of information from all over the Ninja World.
Although Uchiha Sora was a transmigrator and knew the entire plot well, the entire Ninja World was so vast that accidents would happen at any time. If he dared to mess around just by relying on his familiarity with the plot, he would probably encounter many troubles.
Therefore, establishing an intelligence organization became the most urgent task at hand.
Only when the intelligence was in place could he truly control the development of the entire situation.
Uchiha Obito could play with the Ninja World, and the credit of White Zetsu was indispensable.
"The construction of the intelligence organization is the priority of the Village. For now, let Zabuza be responsible for it." Uchiha Sora said: "In a while, I will find a professional intelligence officer to take charge."
He thought of the intelligence officer of Konoha Village, Yakushi Nono, who was known as the Walking Shrine Maiden. She should not be dead yet, and if there was an opportunity, he could poach her to be in charge of the intelligence department.
As for other matters, Uchiha Sora did not say much, only mentioning them briefly and encouraging everyone.
After the meeting ended, everyone dispersed.
At this time, in the Hokage Office of Konoha Village, Kakashi, who had returned to the Village, reported the situation of the mission to the Third Hokage and conveyed Uchiha Sora's words.
In the Hokage Office, besides the Third Hokage and the two Advisors, Danzo was also present.
After listening to Kakashi's report, Danzo slammed the table angrily and said: "Uchiha Sora is truly detestable! He actually dares to threaten us with Konoha Village's intelligence! I think it would be better to send elites to flatten his Grass Ninja Village! Let him have nowhere to stay!"
"Shut up! Danzo!" Hearing these angry words from Danzo, the Third Hokage glared at him: "To think you are still the leader of Root, yet you can say such irrational words! If Uchiha Sora were so easy to deal with, would we still need you and me to sit here and discuss it?"
"Hiruzen, although what Danzo said was a bit extreme, it is still a method." The Advisor Utatane Koharu on the side spoke up: "Uchiha Sora occupying Grass Ninja Village must be wanting to develop his own power. As long as we don't let his plan succeed, relying on him alone, at most he is just an S-rank Rogue Ninja. Does he dare to attack the entire Konoha Village alone? But once his power is established, I am afraid it will be very troublesome!"
"Do I not know these principles?" The Third Hokage sighed after hearing this: "But you should also understand that even if we can destroy his Grass Ninja Village, we definitely cannot kill him."
"If we really do that, I am afraid there will be no possibility of easing the relationship between us and him, and the intelligence of our Konoha Village might be sold to other countries by him immediately."
"And now, since he has proposed a plan to negotiate terms, it means that this matter does not need to be solved by force at all." Finally, the Third Hokage said: "The current Uchiha Sora is no longer the Uchiha Sora of Konoha Village. We must face him squarely and treat him as an equal."
"Otherwise, blindly antagonizing him will only give other countries and Villages the opportunity to invade Konoha!"
