Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

"However, Orochimaru kept it from us..."

"Danzo himself is simply unaware of this."

"If that's the case with Hashirama's cells, what do you think of the Impure World Reincarnation technique?"

"The villagers say this technique has a fatal flaw, but who really knows the truth?"

"What if it's already perfected?"

"What if we bring out the Senju brothers, Hashirama and Tobirama?"

"So, Shikaku!"

"You should calm down and study properly. Hiruzen Sarutobi is not as simple as you think."

"He has fully inherited the complete heritage of the Senju and Uzumaki clans. Who knows how many trump cards he has up his sleeve now?"

"So compared to you, Uchiha Jin is a bit more mature."

"Using the prevailing trend to gradually strengthen ourselves, and taking the opportunity to erode, win over, and divide the Hokage faction, even if Hiruzen Sarutobi has many trump cards, we will not give him any chance to use them."

“Look at his schemes since his debut; he’s basically been using all overt tactics!”

"They intend to use overwhelming force to completely crush everything Hiruzen Sarutobi has done."

"This method of slowly boiling the frog in water may take much longer, but it is more stable!"

"The Uchiha are a powerful clan with a thousand-year history, and Hiruzen Sarutobi is no less impressive!"

"And even if the Uchiha win in a desperate standoff, what will the battered and ravaged Konoha have to resist the next four great ninja villages?"

Nara Shikaku nodded slowly.

He was in shock just now, so he spoke without thinking.

But, actually.

After listening carefully to his clansman's words, he had to admit that the current Uchiha clan did not have the confidence to easily suppress Hiruzen Sarutobi in version 5.6.

Temporarily lying low is the best course of action.

“However, even so,” Nara Shikaku said quietly, “those are four kaleidoscopes!”

"With the current strength of the Uchiha clan and the wisdom of Uchiha Jin, the chances of success in the end are quite high."

"So, cousin, I still have to ask you for help."

"And you can't have any other thoughts; you have to plan carefully for the Uchiha clan."

"As for the other side."

"Although Hiruzen Sarutobi is now in decline, I will still do my best to plan for him, and without any selfish motives."

"Brother, now that you're with the Uchiha clan, we can have another good fight."

"I lost the last clan competition, but I'm determined to win this time!"

"Brother, are you ready?"

Chapter 232 The Nara brothers clash, and the two elders want to teach Hiruzen Sarutobi a lesson!

Koji Nara nodded slightly.

Looking at Nara Shikaku's serious expression, a hint of fighting spirit began to appear in his eyes.

Yes.

He'd been lying low in the tribe for too long, and he really wanted to stretch his muscles.

In particular, Nara Shikaku.

My dear cousin is quite a formidable opponent!

Now that he had such a good game, he was honestly itching to play.

"no problem."

“I also want to see if you’ve made any progress lately, cousin.”

"Since we're going to set up a full-scale battle, it seems the Nara clan should split up."

"After all, Kazama's affair can't be kept secret. Does this kid really think that he's colluding with the Uchiha and that the village's Anbu are all dead men?"

"With the end of the war, after Kazama returned to the village, it became difficult to keep everything a secret any longer."

"If we hadn't separated, even Hiruzen Sarutobi would have dared to doubt you."

"So when Kazama returns to the village, our Nara clan should split up."

　19 “But this time, I’m going to take half of Nara with me.”

"After all, if you're going to join the Uchiha clan, it wouldn't be right not to prepare a generous gift."

"So not only our Nara clan, but also the Akimichi and Yamanaka clans, I will each take half of them with me."

"The next time the clans unite will be when the victor is determined!"

"Shikaku, you have to do your best!"

Koji Nara, full of vigor and ambition.

Although he had been silent for a long time, ever since Lu Jiu took over the position of clan leader, he had completely become a person who just loafed around and waited to die.

But, now.

With the possibility of another confrontation, he began to get excited.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Nara Shikaku simply shrugged when he heard this.

"no problem."

"Brother, what's next?"

"We've each used our own methods, cheers!"

He looked relaxed.

However, when he looked at Nara Koji again, a fierce fighting spirit began to flash in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his glass.

Without hesitation, Koji raised his teacup and clinked it against Nara Shikaku's.

but.

Although the two brothers were having a good time, if this matter were to leak out even slightly, the Nara clan would be completely wiped out.

After all, damn it.

Regardless of the faction, the most detestable people are those who are opportunistic and fickle.

Even Uchiha Jin couldn't escape the common fate!

You either follow me or you follow Hiruzen Sarutobi. What kind of people are like your Nara clan?

Bet on both ends.

Regardless of who wins or loses, the Nara family is definitely not at a loss.

How similar this is to the Three Kingdoms period in Jin's previous life!

Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei, Zhuge Jin followed Sun Quan, and Zhuge Dan followed Cao Cao.

Horse riding.

Regardless of who ultimately wins the world, you might win, but the Zhuge family will not lose out.

Actually, let's not talk about the Zhuge family.

At that time, families with names and surnames were actually all pretty much the same.

Guo Jia followed Cao Cao, while Guo Tu followed Yuan Shao.

This kind of thing happened all the time.

only.

In a world like the ninja realm, where strategists are not valued and force conquers everything, who has ever seen such a scene?

Therefore, it must be said.

The Nara clan is terrifying!

They truly deserve to be known as the most strategic and intelligent clan in the ninja world.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Outside Konoha Village, deep in the dense forest.

Near the edge of the Death Forest, there is a hidden entrance, which is the true headquarters of the Roots.
