Southern Fire Country, Uchiha Army Camp.

Upon hearing the news, Uchiha Rei personally led his people to the entrance to welcome the heroes' return.

"He really succeeded."

The commander's emotions surged, his hands trembling slightly in excitement.

He had fought against the three clans for many years but had never been able to completely defeat them.

Now, with the newly obtained intelligence, they could quickly gain a comprehensive advantage.

By uprooting the enemy's scattered bases, the three clans would be driven into a corner.

They would have no choice but to engage in a decisive battle or flee to the Land of Lightning.

As for seeking refuge with the Senju? That wasn't even an option to consider.

"Once this battle is over, the southern border will completely belong to the Uchiha."

"Tajima, let's see how you plan to compete with me then."

Lost in his thoughts, Uchiha Rei seemed to envision the moment he ascended as clan leader.

"Sir, they're here."

The voice of his subordinate pulled him back to reality.

Looking around, a large number of ninjas had already gathered at the entrance, all waiting for the return of Kyosuke's squad.

Before long, three figures appeared on the horizon.

Leading them was Uchiha Kyosuke, who was showing his true face for the first time.

Since officially reaching Jonin strength, he no longer needed to wear a mask.

Among ninjas, strength determined everything. His young age only emphasized his extraordinary talent.

Previously mentioned, Chidori was the most suitable jutsu for the Uchiha.

If he could teach it to his subordinates, he could teach it to any clansman who met the requirements.

The prerequisite? They had to be his subordinates.

Ninja speed was unparalleled. One moment, they were mere silhouettes on the horizon; the next, the squad was standing before the commander.

Tossing the unconscious Yamanaka Rumiko to the ground, Kyosuke calmly said, "Mission accomplished. The captive has been brought back."

"Good, Good, Good!"

Uchiha Rei exclaimed three times in a row, instantly recognizing the captive's identity.

Ordering his subordinates to take the prisoner away for strict confinement, he patted Kyosuke's shoulder, choosing not to leave immediately.

A hero's return deserved more than a simple ending.

Let Kyosuke enjoy the admiration of his clansmen first.

As a long-time enemy, Yamanaka Rumiko's appearance was no secret.

Soon, someone recognized her.

"It's her! That vile woman, Yamanaka Rumiko!"

"With her in our hands, we can destroy the enemy's bases one by one!"

"Damn it, your end is near!"

"Haha, the war is finally coming to an end!"

"Long live Lord Kyosuke!"

"Long live! Long live!"

Surrounded by countless enthusiastic faces, Kyosuke didn't shy away.

With a sharp sound, he unsheathed his short sword, holding it high in the air as he let out a triumphant roar.

The next moment, the cheers were loud enough to shake the entire camp.

---

Inside the commander's tent, Kyosuke and Uchiha Rei sat opposite each other.

No matter the place, there were always dirty dealings in the shadows. Yet sometimes, relationships between ninjas were surprisingly straightforward.

Changes in strength naturally led to changes in status.

For Kyosuke, this was his first equal conversation with the commander.

"The time has come for a full-scale assault on the enemy," Uchiha Rei said with some emotion.

"For years, I've dreamed of this day."

"Securing victory in the southern border will elevate your prestige to rival Uchiha Tajima," Kyosuke replied bluntly, showing no effort to hide his disdain for the clan leader.

Over the past year, Tajima's loyalists had frequently sabotaged Kyosuke's plans.

While the harm was minimal, it was annoying enough.

Even so, Kyosuke endured.

For now, he lacked the power to confront Tajima directly.

But when the time was right, he had already decided Tajima's head would be his.

Madara.

Kyosuke thought, relationships aside, Tajima's survival was a separate matter.

As long as Tajima lived, Kyosuke could never truly gain power in the Uchiha clan.

"You've now been promoted to Jonin," Uchiha Rei said, fully aware of Kyosuke's abilities. "It's time for you to assemble a team. Don't worry about manpower."

A unit commander was allowed to form a team of up to thirty members.

Considering the casualty rate among ninjas, the actual number was usually lower.

Previously, Kyosuke had preferred a three-man team to avoid being dragged down by others.

But with direct combat against large forces on the horizon, even three Jonin couldn't achieve much alone.

A single large-scale jutsu from the enemy could force them to retreat.

Even a group of mediocre Mist ninjas could resist Madara's Edo Tensei Great Fire Annihilation together.

At times, numbers could compensate for gaps in strength.

"Thank you, sir," Kyosuke said with a nod, accepting Uchiha Rei's goodwill.

He now needed to build his own forces. Only by having subordinates could he gain influence within the clan.

When the time came, even Tajima would think twice before moving against him.

---

While the two talked, the selection of team members had already begun.

Uchiha Izumi acted as the examiner, testing the applicants' skills, while Uchiha Maya used genjutsu to screen for potential risks.

Initially, there were complaints.

Many wanted to serve under Kyosuke but resented being subjected to genjutsu interrogation.

It felt insulting.

However, when Uchiha Izumi demonstrated Chidori and explained that those who passed would be taught the jutsu, the entire camp was stirred.

Experienced ninjas understood the significance of Chidori.

Previously, many had wondered how Kyosuke's squad managed to defeat a perfectly coordinated Ino-Shika-Cho team.

Now it was clear—Kyosuke had developed such a terrifying Lightning Style jutsu.

"Chidori is such an appropriate name," someone remarked in awe.

Due to limited slots, only qualified applicants were accepted.

What were the qualifications?

Applicants couldn't belong to Tajima's faction, had to specialize in Lightning Style jutsu, and must lack existing loyalties to other factions.

These three conditions immediately disqualified most of the camp, leaving a small number ecstatic at the chance to learn Chidori.

After a full day and night of assessments, Izumi and Maya finally selected thirty suitable ninjas.

None of them were Jonin; all were Chunin from within the clan.

Jonin were strategic assets and had long since joined various factions.

It wasn't that they didn't want to join; Kyosuke had intentionally excluded them from the start.

"Welcome"

Kyosuke said as he activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Amid gasps of amazement, he continued, "If you're going to follow me, you must have the ambition and will to establish great achievements."

"Remember, the enemy's heartland will be the front line for our unit."

"Approach this with determination. Do everything you can to grow stronger."

Capítulo 24: Chapter: 24 A Thousand Birds Chirping Together, Unmatched in Power

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

The southern battlefield, south of the border, in the Gobi Desert.

Having intercepted enough intelligence, the Uchiha swiftly launched a massive extermination operation.

Anyone related to the three clans, kill!

Anyone trading with the three clans, kill!

Anyone hiding criminals of the three clans, kill!

Better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go—this terrifying slaughter filled the southern borders of the Land of Fire with dread and fear.

In the blink of an eye, over a month had passed since the all-out siege began.

From the beginning, the three clans never intended to fight head-on.

Regardless of how much pressure the Uchiha applied, the enemy strictly adhered to one principle: drag it out.

Drag it out until the Uchiha completely collapse.

On the main battlefield, no one knew what kind of trump card Senju Butsuma had deployed.

The Uzumaki Clan, who could have stayed out of the conflict, resolutely decided to join the fray.

As fellow descendants of Ashura, the Uzumaki Clan's strength was in no way inferior to the Senju or Uchiha Clans.

With their incredible physical resilience and their unparalleled sealing techniques, their presence on the battlefield marked the start of a gradual defeat for the Uchiha.

Nara Higashihiko's strategy was simple: once the Uchiha couldn't hold on anymore, they would have to redeploy shinobi from their southern army for reinforcements.

At that point, the three clans could seize the opportunity to reclaim their territory and rebuild a solid defensive network.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, Nara Higashihiko had no intention of fleeing to the Land of Lightning or submitting to the Senju as their vassals.

Realizing the enemy's intentions, the Uchiha responded with even more frenzied eradication efforts.

Through relentless pressure, they managed to corner a medium-sized group of over 80 enemy shinobi in the Gobi Desert.

Surrounding them were three Uchiha captains, each with a sharp gaze, including the formidable Uchiha Kyosuke.

"These slippery bastards can't get away this time," one shinobi muttered, his tone laced with resentment.

Kyosuke nodded silently in agreement.

He suddenly realized that perhaps he had overestimated the war potential of the three clans.

Cunning wasn't inherently wrong, but being too clever could lead to self-destruction.

In the end, wars in the shinobi world depend on individual strength and resources.

Over-relying on strategy could only push one into a more desperate situation.

This was the Warring States Period, with the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi Clans at their peak.

If they had gathered their forces on a large scale, they could have easily outnumbered the southern Uchiha army.

But, instead, Nara Higashihiko—priding himself on his unparalleled intelligence—chose guerrilla tactics to evade and harass the enemy.

One side poured all its resources into wiping out the other.

The other side avoided direct confrontation, sacrificing smaller groups to ensure the survival of the majority.

As seen now, a group of 80 shinobi from the three clans had been hounded to exhaustion by three Uchiha units, reduced to a pitiful state.

It's worth noting that, apart from Kyosuke's unit being at full strength, the other two captains didn't even have complete rosters.

Their combined total of 67 shinobi was nearly 20 fewer than their opponents.

"This is the curse of the so-called wise," Kyosuke sighed, though his gaze was filled with killing intent.

Looking at the two captains beside him, who were visibly frustrated, Kyosuke suddenly proposed, "I'll try to break through the enemy formation."

"When the time comes, you both charge in and annihilate as many enemies as possible."

Hearing this, the two captains frowned deeply.

One of them hesitated before replying, "Kyosuke, are you planning to use just 30 men to pierce through their large formation?"

"Yes."

Kyosuke nodded. He didn't offer any further explanation, simply saying, "Trust me. Prepare to devour the enemy once we break through."

"…Alright, let's do it!"

The two captains, seasoned warriors themselves, understood the fleeting nature of battle opportunities.

As for whether the plan would work—

Could they even count the miracles this young man had already achieved over the years?

Trusting one another was one of the few admirable traits of the Uchiha.

Soon, Kyosuke's unit advanced onto the Gobi Desert.

The enemy, who had been resting, immediately grew alert upon noticing the situation.

They seemed ready to flee at the first sign of trouble.

Standing at the forefront of his unit, Kyosuke fearlessly stared down the enemy and shouted, "Everyone, prepare!"

"What's he doing?"

The enemy leader called an Akimichi subordinate to prepare defensive measures for what they assumed would be a large-scale ninjutsu.

But things weren't unfolding as expected.

The air currents grew increasingly violent, tearing through the sky and scattering the clouds high above.

Sand and stones flew as chakra surged, and the crackling of lightning sent shivers down the spines of both allies and enemies alike.

When a single shinobi activated this jutsu, it sounded like the chirping of a thousand birds.

But when all 30 shinobi unleashed the same technique simultaneously, it was as if tens of thousands of birds had descended upon the Gobi Desert.

"All units, spread out and support! The goal is to break through the enemy's defenses!"

"Yes!!!"

After a collective roar, the terrifying surge of lightning finally began to move.

"My god…"

The other two Uchiha units could only stare in shock.

Never in their wildest dreams did they imagine that this group could unleash such a devastating group-based ninjutsu.

Everyone knew about Chidori—the lightning release technique created by the Uchiha genius.

But why would he share it so freely?!

Regardless of Kyosuke's motives, the scene before them was awe-inspiring.

By stimulating their bodies with lightning chakra, each shinobi's cellular activity was heightened, granting them speed far beyond that of ordinary ninja.

Defend?

By the time the Akimichi shinobi reacted, the brilliant lightning had already smashed into their formation.

"Kill!!!"

From forming seals to charging through the enemy lines, Kyosuke's unit took just seven seconds.

They killed 12 enemies outright, injured countless others, and emerged unscathed.

"Reform the formation!"

Kyosuke commanded, and the 30 shinobi swiftly adjusted their positions.

After a brief sequence of hand seals, the deafening chirping resounded once more.

"Attack!"

Kyosuke charged forward with two subordinates, leading the assault on their now-terrified enemies.

"Attack!!!"

The remaining 30 shinobi roared and launched into a second wave of all-out attacks.

At last, the Nara commander reacted.

Countless shadows extended like a massive net, attempting to smother the advancing lightning flood.

It didn't kill, but it slowed the enemy's relentless momentum.

It was a wise response, but it failed to grasp the true essence of Chidori.

Why is Chidori considered the perfect technique for the Uchiha?

The answer was about to be revealed.

Faced with the overwhelming attack, Kyosuke's unit moved in perfect unison to evade the incoming shadows.

Thanks to their Sharingan, they could see the same threats and react identically.

If one could dodge, all 30 could dodge.

In less than three seconds, the enemy had no time to launch a second round of attacks.

The Chidori formation charged into the enemy ranks once again.

After two devastating charges, the 80-strong enemy force had suffered over half their number in casualties.

More importantly, their morale was utterly crushed.
