"A meeting for high-level Ninja is being held, I'll leave first," Minato explained to the four of them, and then left with the Anbu Ninja.
"High-level meeting?" When Makoto Uchiha heard those words, his eyes changed.
Convening a high-level meeting at this time seems to be for another war.
After bidding farewell to Kakashi and the others, Makoto Uchiha returned home.
Makoto Uchiha came to his room and took out a map from the cabinet.
This is a detailed map that every Jonin can get from the Village, it records the map of the Naruto World with the five major countries as the core.
Of course, the map does not indicate any of the Nations' defences, it only indicates their borders, other secret information would be known only after reaching a specific level or performing special Missions.
Makoto Uchiha picked up a pen, made a mark on the location of Konoha Village, and then drew a thick line in the middle.
"According to the timeline, this time it should be Rock Village's comeback, they should be trying to pass through the Grass Country to attack the Land of Fire.
This place should be Kanabi Bridge.
I just don't know whether I will remain idle during this period or will be sent to the frontline along with Minato to destroy Kanabi Bridge. "
Makoto Uchiha looked at the map and thought, it was impossible to let him sit idle.
After all, Konoha is indeed short of Ninja, to be precise, it is very short of Chunin and Jonin.
Unlike other Villages like Hidden Rock who can throw lots of Ninja at their enemies, Konoha does not have that luxury.
In fact, for most Ninjas, the truth remains that an army of ants can kill an elephant.
Konoha had fought many Villages, at times together in the 3 Shinobi World Wars and the process had lost a lot of manpower and Ninja.
Therefore, in the current battle with Hidden Rock, the number f ninja Konoha would send would be incomparable to Hidden Rock.
Although Makoto Uchiha is not very famous in the Village's Jonin Ranks, his strength is ranked in the forefront. With his performance in front of Minato, the third Hokage can't be unaware of his true strength.
"This battle is also an opportunity for me to perform. When Minato Namikaze rises to the top, I will naturally rise along with him and in the process of the ninja, be awarded with more resources and secret techniques of the Village and improve my strength more and more. Soon, the Uchiha Clan will follow this change."
After that long time that he had transmigrated, Makoto had successfully increased his strength and was no longer the cannon fodder he was in the Battle of Kikyo Pass, he currently had enough power to protect himself and even go on the offensive.
...
In the Hokage Building, the conference room next to the Hokage Office.
The Third Hokage sat at the top of the long table, the positions on his right and left were occupied by Danzo Shimura, Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado and then Minato Namikaze.
After that, sat the heads of the Konoha Clans and Elite Jonin f the Village.
The third Hokage glanced, frowned, and asked, "Why hasn't Orochimaru arrived yet?"
"Lord Third, we have sent someone to inform him, but we were unable to find Lord Orochimaru in the Village." An Anbu Ninja who was an attendant said respectfully.
The Third's face darkened when he heard this, obviously thinking of something.
But Danzo who also heard this remained expressionless and lower his head looking down.
The Third glanced at Danzo and cursed inwardly.
But he calmed down, waved his hand and said, "Don't wait for him, let's start the meeting."
With that said, the Third Hokage nodded towards Minato on the side and motioned for him to begin.
Seeing this, Danzo narrowed his eyes and felt that the situation was not right. He secretly cursed Orochimaru for not knowing what to do at the right times. Even at this period, the idiot had focused on his experiments.
Minato Namikaze spoke: "Presumably everyone has known before coming. According to the battle report from the front line and the intelligence from the spies planted in the Village in Hidden Rock, the Hidden Rock and Hidden Cloud have come to a truce.
Hidden Rock will go to war with Konoha again. They have sent troops to garrison in the Land of Grass, with obvious ill intentions.
After a series of battles, Konoha's losses are severe, it will not be good if we go to war again.
Of course, although we do not want to fight again, I think that peace can only last if we obtain it through war.
Konoha hopes to make peace with Hidden Rock, but the premise is that we must win the battle first."
Minato briefly explained the situation and expressed his opinion. Now he is fully qualified to be Hokage.
The people present agreed with Minato's views. After all, they have fought in three wars and know that although Konoha seeks peace, it is not afraid of war as well.
After Minato finished speaking, Koharu continued: "Minato is right, but there are not many Ninjas we can send to support the frontline troops.
Although Sand Village has surrendered and signed an agreement with Konoha, it is difficult to guarantee that they will no longer make any moves. The number of Ninjas stationed in the West can, therefore, not be reduced as well.
As for Hidden Mist and Hidden Cloud, they haven't taken the initiative to provoke us again but nor have they come forward for a truce, so we must remain on guard.
As a result, we cannot transfer those forces keeping them at bay and must remain on guard.
The troops garrisoned in the northwest have been changed, and all the wounded have returned to the Village. Now there are only about 300 frontline troops, and Hidden Rock has at least a thousand people, must make an early decision. "
As Koharu finished speaking, everyone turned to look at the Third Hokage.
All the Clans have suffered heavy losses in this war, and no one wants to be the first one to be sent at this time. After all, many Clans have a shallow background, and if they die, their Clan will fall into danger and may even go extinct.
Although Konoha is a large alliance with collective interests, the power of the Clans should not be underestimated, and the weakening of the Clans powers will inevitably affect the political status of the Village.
At this time, the Third did not dare to force any Clan to send members to fight as the vanguard.
Thinking of this, the Third said: "Most of the Ninjas of the Sarutobi Clan are now stationed in Kikyo Castle, and there is no way for them to support the front line as quickly as possible.
But I will send Ninja to change the defence as soon as possible, and let the Sarutobi Clan lead the Clans to the front line. "
Hearing that the Third were about to let his Sarutobi Clan, the Patriarchs of the various Ninja Clans couldn't be silent anymore.
Uchiha Fugaku, who was still contemplating, finally made up his mind at this time, saying: "The Uchiha Clan is willing to send a vanguard force and let Minato deploy them appropriately."
As soon as Uchiha Fugaku made this statement, he showed public support for Minato's position.
Listening to Uchiha Fugaku, other patriarchs made up their mind and contributed to the force.
As for those ordinary Ninjas who aren't part of any Clans, the Third directly issued orders to participate in the war.
The Third and his advisors exchanged glances and then stated: "We will do the logistics work immediately, and the wares, food, and medical supplies will be transported to the front line as quickly as possible."
The meeting continued, but after identifying the most important personnel issues, other issues were easily resolved.
"Then what about the Chunin exam this time? Do you want to stop it?" At the end of the meeting, Koharu mentioned the Chunin selection exam that was being held.
The Third heard those words, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Reduce the examination process and relax the qualification requirements."
"Yes!"
The meeting lasted for about an hour, and as soon as the meeting ended, the orders were executed in an orderly manner.
...
On the second day after the meeting, Makoto Uchiha received a notice from the Clan to see the Clan Head.
And Makoto Uchiha, who had been prepared a long time ago, directly put on his backpack, Ninja clothing and set off with his Sky Sword on his waist.
