Starting from Uchiha Obito

At the end of the war, Konoha, Amegakure and Sand Village were all defeated. It was a battle with no winner.

Hanzo, the leader of the Rain Ninjas, successfully retreated, but almost all of the Rain Ninjas were wiped out, and they will no longer be able to fight for a long time in the future.

The death toll of the Sand Village was only 10% of the army, but they lost their Kazekage Rasa and the tailed beast, so they couldn't say they won.

Konoha did not dare to say that it had won because a large number of mid-level and low-level ninjas died. When ordinary ninjas faced the tailed beasts, the jonin were okay, if they couldn't defeat them at least they could run away, but the chuunin, especially the genin, would only be slaughtered when facing the tailed beasts. The particularly strong among the chuunin could still run away, but the genin - unless they were 14 years later, they would almost die if they met the tailed beasts.

Judging from the death rate of the expedition, with an 80% casualty rate, even the most shameless ruler would not dare to say that he had won.

But Konoha’s current strength has not actually decreased much, what it has lost is its future.

The entire battle process was full of coincidences. First of all, in terms of layout - because the environment of the Rain Country and the fighting habits of the Sand Ninja were incompatible, the two sides joined forces but did not unite their forces. If Jiraiya wanted to provoke a war, he would definitely have to divide his forces to fight the enemy.

Jiraiya led his troops to fight against the Sand Ninja Army of the Wind Country, and Tsunade led her troops to fight against the Rain Ninja Army of the Rain Country. The two sides were not far apart. After all, if they joined forces, they would not be able to get help even if they were too far away.

Then there were their respective calculations. Jiraiya wanted to use Obito's fighting power to kill a Kazekage and force the Sand Village to surrender, while the Kazekage wanted to mobilize the tailed beasts to have a big fight with Konoha. The time of their preparations for the attack was slightly different, which resulted in the Sand Village's Jinchūriki being brought to the Wind Country battlefield when Rasa died.

Since Jiraiya's plan was to delay Hanzo, and the number of Rain Ninjas was relatively small and their quality was relatively low, the number of Konoha people assigned to the Rain Country battlefield was smaller but more elite, with the intention of completely annihilating the Rain Ninjas. As a result, there were not many Jonin on the Wind Country battlefield, but a higher proportion of mid- and low-level Ninjas. And they happened to encounter the rookie killer Ikbi.

Among the nine tailed beasts, the one-tail is a real rookie killer. It may not perform well against Kage-level strongmen, but because it is the only tailed beast that has learned ninjutsu, its killing frequency and killing range are the highest. It is difficult for mid-level and low-level ninjas to escape. If the nine-tailed beast comes, it will definitely have a higher combat power, but as long as it runs in all directions, even the tailed beast ball cannot hit all directions at the same time. There will always be a few directions that are lucky enough to escape.

It was because of the One-Tail's extreme bullying attribute that it entered the game halfway and directly destroyed Konoha's troops in the Wind Country. A large number of mid- and low-level ninjas were almost wiped out. When the ninjas who were contacting and transmitting information found Jiraiya and Tsunade who were besieging Hanzo, there were not many Konoha ninjas left.

Jiraiya made a prompt decision and asked Tsunade to continue to hold back Hanzo, while he used summoning magic to summon a toad to help notify Minato Namikaze to come as a transport soldier. He first took him to the front battlefield of the Wind Country to resist the One-Tail, and then asked him to find Obito to help.

When Jiraiya left, Hanzo thought that Rasa had escaped, so he continued to fight with Tsunade with full confidence. Tsunade knew the situation and tried her best to delay until Obito's Susanoo stood up. With a height of almost 90 meters, even Hanzo and Tsunade who were fighting in the forest could see it 20 kilometers away. Hanzo retreated decisively. He was also an old man and knew what Susanoo was. I just don't know what his reaction would be when he returned and found that there were almost no Rain Ninjas left.

Tsunade certainly also knew about Susanoo. She had a complicated expression on her face and slowly walked towards the battlefield.

In fact, except for the weakest Rain Ninja, both Konoha and Sand Village achieved their predetermined goals, but they both paid a price they did not want to bear. From a certain point of view, they can both say that they have won, but no one has the courage to say it out loud.

This is the full picture of this battle. After this battle, the Rain Country was completely quiet. First of all, Hanzo was left with no one. Then he knew that Uchiha had Mangekyō again. He could not think of any other way except to hide, so he simply admitted defeat after the war. Konoha did not punish the Rain Ninja severely as usual, but just robbed him of the right to accept and carry out missions in the Rain Country. Anyway, he had no one left, so just rescue him.

The Wind Country is in an awkward situation. Surrender? They have suffered the least overall. Don't surrender? The Kazekage has died, the Jinchūriki has died, and the lack of high-end combat power is the biggest shackle. Moreover, since they have used the Jinchūriki, they have to worry about Konoha sending out Jinchūriki for revenge. So they are unwilling to surrender, but they dare not not surrender. Unfortunately, there is no supreme authority to make the decision. They are currently in the process of selecting the Kazekage.

Konoha was also in an awkward situation. Nearly 4000 mid-level and low-level ninjas had died, and only a little over 5000 of the 1000-strong army remained. It was impossible for such a small number of people to attack the Sand Country and destroy the Wind Country. Moreover, it was useless to seize the Sand Country's territory. Who in the Fire Country would want to live in the desert? The entire Wind Country was poor and could not even produce a few ounces of oil. It was unrealistic to ask the village to support a large army of several thousand people for this.

Moreover, the Sand Village no longer had its Kazekage, so they didn't even know who to contact if they wanted to. So they simply left a small number of troops behind to conduct surveillance and defense, and the others withdrew to Konoha and wait for the Sand Village to select a Kazekage.

Tsunade followed the main force back to the village to coordinate the treatment of the wounded. Obito was also one of the wounded who was sent back to Konoha. It was because he got blood all over his face in order to make it look more realistic. However, he did not let Tsunade check him, and Tsunade had nothing to say about his words. As a Senju, she knew very well that there was no medicine to cure the overuse of the Mangekyō Sharingan, and it would be useless for Obito to check him because he had no brothers.

Jiraiya returned to the Land of Lightning, and it was said that this time the Raikage himself was about to take action.

Orochimaru officially started fighting with the Water Country just a few days after the Rain Country surrendered. However, the Water Country never sent out an organized army. They only fought high-intensity and high-density squad raids. The fighting was fierce but not brutal. As long as the squads are not stubborn, there will generally not be a situation where one side is completely wiped out and has no chance to escape. No one is a fool. They would not fight hard even though they know that the other person is a master and they are just a rookie.

Running away and calling for support are both normal operations, so it is not easy to die. As long as it is not an absolutely strong team encountering a team of all rookies, they can basically survive by running away and calling for support at the same time.

So there is not much pressure here for the time being. All the ninjas who withdrew from the Rain Country, including Obito, have vacations of varying lengths to recuperate. Obito has the longest vacation because he made a big splash on the battlefield in the Wind Country this time. In particular, the giant taller than the One-Tail was seen by almost all the Konoha ninjas who participated in the battle, and his fame directly overshadowed Jiraiya and Tsunade.

When the news reached Konoha, the whole village was shocked, especially the Uchiha. Before in the Land of Lightning, not many people knew about Obito's combat power, and Obito himself did not tell everyone, and Konoha would definitely not help him publicize it. As a result, the Uchiha did not know that they had a genius who could open the Mangekyō at the age of 9. But this time, too many people saw it, and it was impossible to hide it even if they wanted to. As a result, the Uchiha finally learned the news that Obito had the Mangekyō.

Anyone who knows anything about the Uchiha and Mangekyō can imagine how the Uchiha will react. It is said that some Uchiha have already begun discussing letting Obito run for the next Hokage, which is something that the Konoha high-ups cannot tolerate.

So Obito really couldn't be released. Sarutobi Hiruzen was determined not to let Obito go to make merit no matter what. He directly gave Obito a one-year vacation as a reward. At the same time, he could also reduce the weight of other rewards, killing two birds with one stone.

Obito's contribution in killing the Kazekage and the One-Tail Jinchuriki was so great that the Hokage had to give him a good reward. A one-year vacation can offset some regular rewards, but he can't escape the Book of Sealing.

It was just a castrated seal book. When Obito finished reading the table of contents of the seal book, he was speechless. He looked through all the books for the Impure World Reincarnation that he wanted the most but didn't see it. Maybe he was afraid that he would revive Uchiha Madara and mess around? Who made the third generation not know that Uchiha Madara was still alive?

In the end, Obito had no choice but to choose the Flying Thunder God Technique. I believe that if Minato Namikaze did not know the Flying Thunder God Technique, Obito would not even be able to see this technique.

Although Namikaze Minato agreed to teach Obito Flying Thunder God, he had to wait until he was free. Obito felt that it was not a loss to use this opportunity to learn two or three years earlier. After all, the entire Book of Sealings would be his in the future, it was only a matter of time.

"Obito, you've worked hard in this battle. From now on, just stay in Konoha and recover from your injuries. The Mangekyō Sharingan has too many side effects. It's better not to use it if you can. You're only 9 years old. Practice your basic abilities well. I believe you can become an excellent ninja in the future without the Mangekyō."

There is nothing wrong with what the Third Hokage said. What else can Obito say except thank you.

When he left the Hokage building and returned to the Uchiha clan, he received a truly warm hospitality. The family directly held a clan meeting, and all the Uchiha clans who had opened the three-magatama Sharingan were present. First, they praised and affirmed Obito's talent, hard work, and achievements. Then the family gave him a reward, which was not much, just ten times the regular salary of an Uchiha combat member. He could freely watch all the ninjutsu that the family had, and they also gave him a large courtyard in the family land, which was of the same specifications as the elders' residence.

The Uchiha clan's territory at this time was not the remote area a few years later. It was the center of Konoha. It was no exaggeration to say that every inch of land was worth a lot of money. Just this house alone might not be affordable for many senior ninjas even if they saved their entire lives for it.

After praising and giving rewards, the next thing is of course his duties as an Uchiha, such as showing everyone his Sharingan, passing on his experience in opening the eyes, and also, several elders hope that Obito will accept their grandson as a disciple.

It was definitely not possible to accept disciples, as he himself could not even be considered to have mastered cultivation, and he certainly could not mislead his disciples. However, Obito was not stingy at all in passing on his experience in opening the Sharingan, and he directly told them his guess about the Sharingan. After going through the process of opening the eyes by adding some mental power, Obito was very sure that his previous guess was at least partially correct. Maybe the Eternal Mangekyō was different, but there would be no problem with the Mangekyō.
