Well, that's hard to say.
It's no wonder he had such thoughts, because Tsunade is currently acting too decisively, which forces Shinichi Nara to have extra ideas.
"Lady Tsunade, is it really necessary for you to lead the team yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Hyuga Ren became somewhat uneasy, thinking that he couldn't let Tsunade act like this, and quickly said something.
Tsunade waved her hand and said in a deep voice, "You can arrange for three ninjas from your Hyuga clan to be transferred. At least one of them should be a Jonin. Is that alright?"
“We only need one person from the Hyuga side, one Jonin. We don’t need too many,” Bai Mu interjected.
"One person? Are you sure there won't be any problems?" Before anyone else could speak, Tsunade turned to look at Bai Mu, her brows furrowed as she asked.
Bai Mu shrugged and replied, "Don't worry, too many people will actually be a problem."
He paused, then continued, "However, Lady Tsunade should have the others prepare to assemble into three elite forces positioned in the middle and on the left and right flanks, respectively. We need to ensure that we receive support from the rear when we need to launch a counterattack on the Hidden Mist Headquarters."
Uchiha Owl sneered, "Bai Mu, from what you're saying, your reconnaissance mission isn't primarily about exploration, but rather about fighting with them? With so few people, where do you get such courage? Are you crazy, or are all the Hidden Mist Village members useless?"
ridicule!
This is inevitable.
Because everyone understands what Bai Mu means, the reconnaissance mission is secondary, the real purpose is to find the Mizukage to fight, the question is where do you get the confidence to do that?
Even if you discover the Mizukage's whereabouts, there are at least the main forces of Kirigakure. Is it appropriate for you to go in like this?
Bai Mu said calmly, "Plans can't keep up with changes. If necessary, we can do that."
"You're being ridiculous."
Fugaku Uchiha couldn't hold back any longer.
He knew that Bai Mu was very arrogant now because the other party had most likely awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, and with such power, it would be difficult not to become arrogant.
However, you can't get too cocky. The Mangekyou Sharingan is powerful, but it's not invincible. If you keep going like this, you'll ruin your eyes. Young man, you're really too cocky!
“Then let’s do as you say.” Tsunade ignored Fugaku Uchiha and decided to do as Hakubaki said.
No, are you crazy?
Fugaku Uchiha felt he should retract his words about Tsunade's calm, rational, and composed leadership; this was clearly just following Hakubaku Uchiha's reckless and radical actions...
"Lady Tsunade, you mustn't do this!"
If you have any problems, I'll be the one to take the blame.
"No need to say anything more, just listen. We must assemble three elite units, ready to be deployed at any time. If there is an opportunity, we can launch a counterattack, drive the Hidden Mist Village back into the sea, or capture and annihilate them."
Tsunade made the decision immediately, leaving no room for Fugaku Uchiha to object. Anyway, with Hakumu around, she wasn't worried about losing. Besides, Esdeath and Alice Lise were both freaks with such formidable strength, so what was there to be afraid of?
To be honest, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Even if the Hidden Mist army has at least a thousand ninjas, so what? I only have five? No problem, because the advantage is on my side!
Chapter 20 See, you're getting anxious again!
Fugaku Uchiha couldn't stop it.
He had no choice but to follow Tsunade's instructions.
Of course, it's impossible to just stand by and wait. We must enter combat mode and provide support at any time. As for whether this will alert Kirigakure?
It doesn't matter anymore.
Tsunade cannot be allowed to get into trouble.
Oh, and send the message back.
Fugaku Uchiha is really busy.
However, none of this has anything to do with Hakumu or Tsunade.
In fact, Haku Mu didn't plan to bring Hyuga Ren along, but having the power of the Byakugan would make things easier. Besides, if he didn't bring any Hyuga clan ninjas, how would he conduct the exploration?
So, the only option is to bring it with you.
However, it's unlikely to be very useful, because what Bai Mu needs to do is to strike precisely, find the Third Mizukage and kill him, and it would be even better if he could defeat the main force of Kirigakure.
To accomplish this shouldn't be difficult; if the Third Mizukage is coming, then a group of elite ninjas will definitely arrive.
Since that's the case, it's just a convenient thing to do.
"I've agreed to let you do whatever you want, but I wonder what Fugaku Uchiha will say to the old man." At the camp entrance, Tsunade stood side by side with Hakumu and complained.
They were waiting for someone: Esdeath, Alice Lisze, and Hinata Hyuga. That guy needed to be given some instructions and arrangements.
Otherwise, there would be no one in the Hyuga clan to take charge of the overall situation. After all, he is a ninja from the main family and the deputy commander this time, leading the Hyuga clan's ninjas. It would be really difficult for him to leave without giving some instructions and advice.
"It's nothing special to say it like that. The intelligence has only just come back, so it won't be quick to get back and forth. But we should be able to finish this soon." Bai Mu was very confident, believing that the battle would end quickly.
If you talk like that, I really don't know what to say.
Tsunade couldn't just say no, could she?
Considering Bai Mu's strength.
And those two women.
It is indeed possible.
It wasn't that she underestimated Kirigakure, but the strength of Hakubaki, Esdeath, and Alice Lise was indeed too great, so Tsunade had to acknowledge it.
"Remember this, I'm only going along with your crazy ways to repay a favor. I hope you won't disappoint me. But I can tell you that no matter what your purpose is, even if you achieve great feats here, nothing will change. Besides, you're not even the head of the Uchiha clan anymore, so don't expect anything to change."
Tsunade took a deep breath and stared coldly at Bai Mu, telling him that she had agreed to go crazy with him, but that didn't mean she was Bai Mu's ally.
Honestly, you shouldn't think that way.
"Yeah. I know."
Bai Mu didn't seem to mind; instead, he smiled and said...
"You know, so what exactly are you trying to do?" Tsunade was genuinely curious. Even though the demon himself knew the answer, why was he still doing this?
Is it for Konoha?
The problem is, I don't really trust someone like you.
I don't believe you did this without a personal motive. If you say otherwise, I definitely won't believe you.
Bai Mu stroked his chin and said softly, "Lady Tsunade, if the war ends and we enter the post-war recovery period, Konoha will obviously need a new Hokage."
"No, you're aiming for the Hokage title?"
Tsunade stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
What grand ambitions! You're aiming for the Hokage position. You've truly opened my eyes. No wonder you're a born evil Uchiha...
Honestly, you surprised me.
"You're overthinking it. I'm not like that." Bai Mu shook his head, indicating that it wasn't like that at all, and that you had completely misunderstood.
"No? Then what do you mean?" However, Tsunade was completely unconvinced, and she had reason to suspect that Bai Mu was aiming for the Hokage position.
You say no, but I don't believe you!
"The Third Hokage will definitely retire, but given his current condition, it's impossible for him to completely relinquish power. Therefore, we need a Fourth Hokage who is easy to control."
"I say, aren't you being a bit too malicious towards the old man?" Tsunade raised a brow, not quite satisfied with this statement.
I know that you Uchiha people dislike the Hokage lineage and harbor great malice towards it, but isn't your statement a bit excessive?
"Have it?"
Bai Mu curled his lip.
Malice?
It's clearly the Hokage's faction that harbored more malice towards our Uchiha clan. What you're saying is completely upside down; it's not the case at all.
"Besides, it was the Hokage's faction that harbored too much malice towards our Uchiha clan, and even the Senju clan suffered a backlash, resulting in their current predicament..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tsunade interrupted him, glaring at him angrily: "Kid, don't provoke me!"
"Look, you're getting impatient again!" Bai Mu shrugged and said without changing his expression.
Why the rush?
This is too hasty, that won't do.
"You're the one who's in a hurry."
Tsunade's face darkened, her gaze shifting between light and shadow.
Bai Mu's sarcastic tone really displeased Tsunade, which made her quite annoyed, and her tone changed noticeably.
"Alright, then I'll be in a hurry," Bai Mu said casually.
I'm getting anxious, really anxious.
Then I won't tease her anymore.
Besides, it's time to go!
Esdeath and Alice Lisze have arrived, but although Hyuga Ren has also arrived, he has brought two Hyuga clan ninjas with him.
They should be genin, and judging from the situation, they are most likely ninjas from the branch family.
"Didn't I say that a Jonin from the Hyuga clan is accompanied by two Genin?" Tsunade was quite displeased upon seeing this.
Already feeling uncomfortable from Bai Mu's sarcastic remarks, Hyuga Ren's current situation undoubtedly makes her feel that he is being outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant.
"I'm sorry, Lady Tsunade, the situation is special. These are ninjas from the branch family, and we have to bring them along." To this, Hyuga Ren could only respond with a wry smile.
In reality, he had no choice. He had to bring the branch family ninjas with him; he couldn't just go alone. He had to be accompanied by a branch family ninja.
"What use are two genin?" Tsunade said, indicating that if you're going to bring them, you should bring jonin, not genin.
"With Lady Tsunade here, and it's a reconnaissance mission, two genin plus me are enough." Hyuga Ren didn't believe that what was said in the camp earlier about reconnaissance and battle at the same time was true; he just thought it was something Bai Mu said casually.
