Chapter 13
The Ninja Tournament, the Number One Ninja Way in the World!
Chapter 13 The Greatest Ninja Tournament!
The greatest ninja in the world!
Although the Uchiha clan members knew it was a tournament before they were summoned, the reason it attracted almost the entire clan's ninja was mainly because...
Uh... Jin Uchiha gave way too much!
The winner of the Chunin Division will receive a prize of ten million taels of silver and a "Strongest Chunin" trophy certified by the police department.
The champion of the Jonin group will receive a prize of 30 million taels of silver and a "Number One Ninja in the World" trophy certified by the Ministry of Police.
Other runners-up, third-place winners, or top eight finishers also receive substantial cash prizes, as well as various medals and trophies embodying honor.
Ah!
Arrogant, haughty, and self-important... the proud Uchiha clan would never admit that they were after the prize money. Their main reason was that they were the undisputed ninja of the world, and as members of the Uchiha clan, they should do their utmost for honor!
Is it somewhat inappropriate that only the Uchiha clan participates in this "World's Greatest Ninja Tournament"?
If this were someone else, even someone from the Senju or Hyuga clans, who are among the oldest ninja clans, they might have felt that this was an act of arrogance.
But the Uchiha clan!
Apart from Shisui and a few other genetically mutated Uchiha, the nearly one thousand legitimate Uchiha present at the moment did not feel anything amiss, and such thoughts did not even cross their minds.
As the strongest clan in the Land of Fire, the largest country in the ninja world, and Konoha, the largest ninja village, the Uchiha clan naturally deserves the title of "Number One in the World"!
Is there a problem?
Therefore, it must be said that after the plaque was unveiled, the Uchiha members in the audience became even more excited and enthusiastic.
The only thing that made these Uchiha people feel a little uncomfortable was that on either side of the "Number One Under Heaven" plaque hanging high above, there was a vertical plaque with two lines of powerful characters displayed from left to right!
Admitting defeat is not shameful; being a scoundrel is trash!
The two lines of sentences, with their contrasting styles and atmosphere, made the Uchiha present feel slightly uncomfortable, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on that heroic figure under the blazing sun, waiting for the grand opening of this unprecedented event.
"very good!"
Uchiha Jin surveyed the crowd below, a hint of satisfaction creeping into his eyes.
Eighty-eight Jonin!
Among them, sixty people had awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan, and their pairs of eyes, which revealed a scarlet blood-red light, made even the blazing sun feel cold!
Behind this group of Jonin was a neatly arranged formation of 188 Special Jonin, whose uniform two-tomoe Sharingan eyes exuded an equally terrifying aura!
As for the 666th Chunin ranked last, although they are the largest in number and two-thirds of them have awakened the Sharingan, they are much inferior to the former!
As for genin?
Uh...dozens of immature kids are currently watching the Uchiha villagers curiously.
With the Uchiha clan head on the main stage and the six members of the Uchiha elder group present, almost all of the Uchiha clan's fighting force was present!
Nearly a thousand ninjas, nearly a thousand such highly skilled ninjas!
The Uchiha clan truly deserves its reputation as the strongest clan in Konoha, having accomplished the great feat of "one clan suppressing one village" during the Third Shinobi World War. It is precisely because of this formidable strength that the current Konoha leadership is so wary of them.
Uchiha Jin simply couldn't understand how the powerful Uchiha clan could be wiped out by a traitor like Uchiha Itachi.
Let alone a thousand ninjas, even if it were a thousand pigs, it would take Uchiha Itachi half a day to kill them!
As for the Third Hokage who couldn't be rescued in time?
Is this some kind of clumsy act, like the massacre of the Uzumaki Ninja Village?
However, considering Itachi Uchiha's superb genjutsu skills and Mangekyou Sharingan, combined with the Uchiha clan's trust in this clan head, if they were to use some underhanded poisons, genjutsu, or ambushes and seals...
With these combined conditions—including Obito Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan with its space-time attribute and the ruthless attacks from Root members—the annihilation of the Uchiha clan was not entirely unexpected.
Ok……
Shouldn't we find a way to assassinate this traitor?
Before his own chives had even matured, a group of people were already lurking in the shadows, ready to harvest them for him ahead of time. Did they really think he would thank them? Thinking of this, Uchiha Jin felt speechless.
"Uchiha Itachi, step forward!"
One of the core purposes of the World Ninja Tournament is to establish recognition and bonds, and Itachi Uchiha clearly doesn't deserve this in King's story.
Ok?
Uchiha Itachi, standing in the Special Jonin formation, frowned slightly. As the Anbu member tasked with "monitoring the Uchiha clan," he clearly did not want to attract anyone's attention at this moment.
Yes!
The Uchiha clan's commotion was so great that it almost seemed like a coup was about to happen, yet the Konoha F4 remained firmly in their positions.
This was naturally due to Uchiha Jin's deliberate indulgence, allowing the two little traitors, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, to have the opportunity to pass on the message.
And that's precisely why...
At this moment, the Konoha leadership, led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, probably regards this incident as a trick by some "Gyokusai" leader to stir up trouble.
After all, if the Uchiha were really going to launch a coup, they wouldn't be so stupid as to cripple the Root ninjas who were monitoring them before they even started.
Everyone who participated in the Fourth Shinobi World War knew how powerful the Uchiha clan was. Until it was confirmed that the Uchiha were truly going to betray the village, no other ninja clan was willing to become a mortal enemy of the Uchiha.
thus.
What the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, always feared was the Uchiha's silent sneak attacks, and whether the damaged Konoha after the Uchiha's annihilation could fight against the four great ninja villages that always coveted Konoha.
If the Uchiha were to be so reckless as to directly confront the entire Hidden Leaf Village, Hiruzen Sarutobi would be confident enough to gather all the forces of the village's various ninja clans in the shortest possible time and completely annihilate this uncontrollable force that has been thoroughly defined as a traitor.
As for the subsequent impact, that's another matter.
At this moment, Itachi Uchiha's mission and task is to transmit all the movements of the Uchiha clan when the Anbu and Root are no longer able to infiltrate the Uchiha clan's territory.
It is precisely because of this that, under the cold gaze of Uchiha Jin, the shadow in Uchiha Itachi's heart is rapidly expanding.
Have we been discovered?
Uchiha Itachi couldn't figure out where he had slipped up. Even if he had made a mistake, he was sure that no evidence would leak out. So, after taking a deep breath, he walked firmly to the huge arena, which was 100 meters by 100 meters in front of him.
"So this is the despicable 'Jade Shatter' leader! I heard from Brother Zhishui that he's a ruthless guy who dares to threaten you with his life!"
Uchiha Itachi warily sized up the handsome figure in front of him. Filled with the Will of Fire, he was naturally furious at this "villain" who was disrupting the harmony of his clan and village. However, as a double agent, he could not show any of this in this situation. He could only pretend to be confused and ask Uchiha Jin a question.
"What is it?"
Uchiha Jin remained silent, not answering Uchiha Itachi's question, but instead looking at the small body in front of him with a strange gaze.
final!
The killing intent in his heart gradually subsided, replaced by a playful smile. Uchiha Jin smiled gently and spoke kindly to Uchiha Itachi.
"Little one, how old are you?"
