Ch-4 War is coming
🕑 Added 2023-04-07 03:10:58 +0000 UTCAs the sun began to rise, casting a golden glow across the land, each of the skilled Ninjas prepared themselves for the impending attack. With unwavering determination, they made their way onto the ship, their hearts beating with anticipation as they set course towards the Uzumaki country, their minds already strategizing the best plan of action for the battle that awaited them.
At the same time inside the meeting room of Uzumaki family.
"Battery arc the ninja from three major villages have started moving and they must be coming to attack us."said second elder in panic.
"Quiet even if an elder like yourself start panicking then what will happen to the ordinary ninja of our family."reprimanded the patriarch.
"Even if we don't panic but we have to formulate a plan or something to avoid our extermination."said third elder.
Even though other to elders didn't speak but they also looked towards Patriarch for a solution.
"Okay don't look at me like that uncle said that he will fight himself in this battle. So we can rest assured."explained patriarch.
Hearing words of patriarch every elder present in the meeting room where stunned they didn't know what to say for a second.
The First elder cleared his throat before voicing his concerns, careful not to come off as disrespectful. "I don't mean to be insensitive, but it's worth considering that the your uncle's age may be well over a century, if not more. We cannot predict when he may pass away, and it's a risk to entrust him with fighting alongside us, while also expecting him to guarantee our safety. It's a lot to ask," he explained, his tone measured and thoughtful.
"Is it?" a voice of great majesty filled the room, causing all heads to turn. At that moment, an old man with long, flowing white hair and a matching beard entered the space, supported by his trusty crutch. As soon as the patriarch caught sight of the venerable figure, he quickly vacated his seat and stood up in deference. The old man made his way to the now-vacant seat and settled onto it, commanding the attention of all those present.
Seeing such respectful act of the patriarch every elder also stood up and bowed towards the old man.
"I understand your concerns, First elder, but there is no need to explain. I am well aware of my physical condition," Kagutsuchi interjected, cutting off the First elder mid-sentence. "If I say that I am able to fight, then I am able to fight. There is no reason to question my judgement," he declared, his voice strong and unwavering.
"Excuse me, Elder, but have you considered that if we were to flee towards Konoha, they may come to our aid as our allies?" the Third elder suggested, his tone measured and thoughtful.
"Hmph, if an ally has abandoned you once, then they can do so again. Let me ask you this, how do you plan to flee with the entire Uzumaki family, including the non-ninja members and children? Are you willing to let them die while you run away on your own?" Kagutsuchi questioned, his tone stern and rebuking.
Upon hearing this, the elders remained silent, as it appeared that what Kagutsuchi had said was indeed true.
"Alright, let's stop discussing irrelevant matters." Kagutsuchi inquired about the presence of Chunins and higher-ranked individuals in the Uzumaki family.
In response to Kagutsuchi's question, the patriarch replied, "There are 40 Jonins and 250 Chunins in our clan, Uncle."
"Very well. Leave 10 Jonins and 50 Chunins to guard the clan, while the remaining ninjas prepare an enchantment barrier around me and the army for the upcoming fight. We cannot allow even a single intruder to escape. As for the monitoring ninjas, I will instruct them further," commanded Kagutsuchi.
"Uncle, you cannot confront the armies of three major villages alone. I cannot allow it," protested the patriarch.
"I am not asking you, but telling you. You will remain here with the family and protect them," stated Kagutsuchi in an unwavering tone.
"I don't mean any disrespect, but look at yourself. At your age, even walking can be considered a luxury. And now you're telling us that you'll fight against the alliance of three major villages alone? Are you kidding us?" asked the Fourth Elder with a slightly angry tone.
Uzumaki Kagutsuchi glanced at everyone in the meeting room, except for the patriarch. He noticed that all four elders shared the same expression, indicating that they agreed with the Fourth Elder.
"Know your place!" Uzumaki Kagutsuchi spoke with such intensity that a huge amount of chakra and spiritual pressure was released from his body, forcing the elders to bow their heads to the ground.
"Is it just my imagination, or is the pressure emanating from Uncle even stronger than before?" wondered the patriarch to himself.
If Kagutsuchi had known what his nephew was thinking, he wouldn't have been surprised. In the past three days, he had made significant progress and had become fully acquainted with his newfound power.

"Listen to me carefully, Patriarch," said Kagutsuchi, his voice low and commanding. "I understand your concern, but I have no intention of abandoning my family. We must face this challenge head-on, and I will lead the charge. As for the rest of you, I expect you to follow my lead and do everything in your power to protect our clan."
The elders nodded in agreement, their heads still bowed.
"Good. Now, let's focus on the task at hand. We need to fortify our defenses and prepare for battle," continued Kagutsuchi. "Patriarch, I want you to oversee the preparation of the enchantment barrier. Fourth Elder, I need you to coordinate with the monitoring ninjas and keep me informed of any enemy movements. First and Second Elders, I want you to help me strategize our attack plan."
The room fell silent as everyone processed Kagutsuchi's orders. After a moment, the Patriarch spoke up. "Understood, Uncle. We will do everything in our power to protect our family and our village."
"Good," said Kagutsuchi, a fierce determination in his eyes. "Now let's get to work. We have a battle to win."
