Chapter 103 - Chapter 103 The beginning of the decline of the Hidden Cloud Village

Uchiha Tomoki was currently in a makeshift room, engrossed in watching his own video footage.

".....Face the judgment of the Military Police Force!!!"

The specially customized recording equipment faithfully captured Uchiha Tomoki's words, but after that, there was no sound.

A second sun then appeared on the screen, followed by the tragic state of Kumogakure, and of course, Uchiha Tomoki's disheveled figure landing after being attacked by the Raikage.

Hmm, I need to cut that part out later, and remember to reshoot some scenes!

While Uchiha Tomoki was meticulously planning his promotional video, the departing Konoha Ninja had already arrived at Dodai's camp.

This camp only had about a hundred Cloud Ninja, who were naturally powerless against the Konoha Ninja, who outnumbered them by more than ten times.

As for Yugito, she was directly kicked unconscious by Might Guy, who had opened the Sixth Gate. When she woke up, a silent 'meal package' was already prepared for her.

There were no unexpected events. A team of Uchiha Ninja, instructed by Uchiha Tomoki, successfully retrieved the amber purifying pot from Kumogakure without any mishaps.

During the process, a fervent admirer of Uchiha Tomoki imitated him in front of Dodai.

"Fire Release: Burning Heaven!"

This eccentric Uchiha had developed a Ninjutsu that released Fire Release Chakra from his entire body. With just a few simple hand seals, he could transform Chakra into flames.

Well, it looked really cool when he released it, but unfortunately, all his clothes, hair, and eyebrows were completely burned off.

His current appearance was, in short, indescribable!

Meanwhile, in a cave in the Land of Hot Water.

When Black Zetsu and White Zetsu saw the dispirited and unconscious Obito again, Black Zetsu skillfully tore off a piece of White Zetsu from his body and inserted it into Obito's body.

Black Zetsu looked at Obito, who once again had two heads on his shoulders, and fell into deep thought.

Can relying on this guy truly save Mother?

Should I consider cooperating with Uchiha Tomoki? Black Zetsu then shook his head, chasing the thought out of his mind.

But a seed had been planted, and perhaps one day it would take root and sprout.

The Konoha Ninja did not disappoint Uchiha Tomoki; indeed, before lunch, they brought back all the Cloud Ninja, along with the amber purifying pot.

These Ninja had already been interrogated by the Uchiha Ninja using their Sharingan on the way, and a general understanding of the intelligence had been gained.

Looking at the more than a hundred Cloud Ninja before him, all with shocked and disbelieving expressions, Uchiha Tomoki wasted no words and walked directly to Dodai.

"You are Dodai, aren't you? Now you can take those Ninja back to Hidden Cloud Village. After you elect the Fifth Raikage, remember to surrender to the Konoha Military Police Force!"

"Of course, you can choose not to come, but if you don't, I will personally make a trip to Hidden Cloud Village."

Uchiha Tomoki only allowed Dodai and the dozen or so Ninja who were on the verge of collapse to return to Hidden Cloud Village. He believed Hidden Cloud Village would make the correct choice.

He then ordered someone to unseal Dodai and throw him back among the other Ninja.

Dodai remained silent, neither resisting nor shouting, and allowed a few Ninja to lead him away.

After walking a considerable distance, Dodai spoke.

"Can someone tell me what happened?"

Dodai suppressed his grief and asked the others in a low voice.

As a veteran who had served under two Raikage and had already seen one Raikage off, Dodai was still able to control his emotions.

However, just because Dodai could, didn't mean others could.

Dodai's question clearly brought back unpleasant memories for them. Some Ninja had already started trembling uncontrollably, while one Ninja began to laugh and cry at the same time.

"Haha, I knew it was a Genjutsu! Lord Dodai, you're also a fake, aren't you? Watch me chop you down!"

Dodai was, after all, a famous Jonin of Hidden Cloud Village. Although he had lost his legs, he was not someone a deranged ordinary Jonin could deal with.

After knocking him unconscious in a few moves, he ordered someone to carry the guy and continue on their way.

Looking at this group of Ninja who had clearly completely lost their will, Dodai was helpless and chose not to press further.

The entire team walked towards the Land of Lightning in an eerie silence.

At this time, Uchiha Tomoki was carefully calculating the gains from his operation.

After a quick mental tally, Uchiha Tomoki declared that he had won big this time!

First, in terms of strength, with one wave of harvesting, the Ghost Rider's fourth ability was finally unlocked, and he gained several extra lives!

Second, in terms of profit, all the things that the hardworking Cloud Ninja had accumulated over such a long time now belonged to the Military Police Force, not to mention the future compensation.

Even what he had obtained now dazzled Uchiha Tomoki's eyes, but he still planned to return some furniture, bedding, and tableware.

After returning them, he could then demand compensation from Kumogakure again. As for why it belonged to the Military Police Force and not Konoha.

Uchiha Tomoki stated that the Military Police Force was Konoha's Military Police Force, so what belonged to the Military Police Force belonged to Konoha—no problem!

Finally, there was Uchiha Tomoki's most important concern: his reputation.

This time, the Military Police Force had completely made a name for itself, but the most important thing was Uchiha Tomoki's own reputation.

Uchiha Tomoki could already imagine the scene after he spread his promotional video throughout the Ninja World. Hmm, he had to remember to ask Kumogakure for the advertising fees.

Uchiha Tomoki estimated that by then, he would be the most dazzling guy in the entire Ninja World, bar none.

Uchiha Tomoki then began to re-analyze the current situation in the Ninja World.

Hidden Mist had now broken free from Obito's secret control and had also started cooperating with Uchiha.

Hidden Cloud Village, after this battle, would likely not recover even by the time of the Fourth Great Ninja War in the original story.

According to the intelligence Uchiha Tomoki had received about Iwagakure, that old man Ōnoki would probably withdraw his troops directly after seeing his promotional video.

As for Sunagakure, well, it was fine to skip mentioning them.

That left only the Akatsuki Organization and Obito.

Uchiha Tomoki, based on the original story, believed that Nagato was still diligently leveling up.

Given Nagato's cautious nature in the original story, seeing Uchiha Tomoki's performance would likely make him train even longer than in the original story before coming out to 'carry the rice'.

As for Tuzi Ge, that 'power bank,' he might continue to cause trouble, but he should probably quiet down for a while.

After a brief analysis, Uchiha Tomoki realized that this war, whether it was the 4.0 Great Ninja War or the 3.5 Great Ninja War, caused by his butterfly effect, was about to end.

Uchiha Tomoki then began to fantasize about his own title.

Doesn't this count as pacifying the Ninja World by himself? Hmm, getting the title of 'God of Ninja' isn't too much, is it?

At most, the First Hokage would be the Great God of Ninja, so how could he not at least be a 'Lesser God of Ninja'!

No, that won't do. 'Lesser God of Ninja' sounds too pathetic!

How about God of Fire? God of Sun? God of Light?

While Uchiha Tomoki was pondering which title sounded better and more imposing.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage of Konoha Village, finally returned to the Village. With Uchiha Tomoki's departure, the news of Konoha's defeat could no longer be kept from the ordinary villagers.

Upon learning of Hiruzen Sarutobi's return, many villagers gathered at the Village entrance to wait.

However, their waiting was not to welcome Hiruzen Sarutobi's return, but to try and find their loved ones among the returning team.

But when Hiruzen Sarutobi appeared at the Village entrance with a uniform group of Sarutobi Clan Ninja.

All the previously hopeful gazes dimmed, and after seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi, who showed no signs of injury, and the orderly Sarutobi Clan Ninja.

A strange meaning flashed in the eyes of these villagers.

People's hearts, at this moment, quietly began to change!
