Jiraiya had just sat down when he suddenly jumped up, shouting, "Impossible!"
But Aomi didn't reply, instead casting a cold glance at him.
Jiraiya immediately shut his mouth and sat down.
That terrifying look made Jiraiya instantly recall the first time Aomi lost control and beat him up…
This one is different from the old man; when angry, he really hits hard!
"Orochimaru attacked me using a Secret Technique, trying to use Kinjutsu to seize my body, but I killed him,"
Aomi said calmly, "But I don't think he's dead. Anyway, let's record it first and deal with it after the war is over."
"Right now, the pressing issue is to face the anticipated collective attack of the Ninja Alliance Army…"
Aomi slowly scanned the crowd.
"From the combined military formation of the enemy, it seems they want to launch an all-out attack against us…"
Aomi made annotations on the war diagram hanging on the wall, and slowly said:
"This doesn't make sense… After showcasing the destructive power of the Tobirama series weapons, they still dare to group their troops. This means they have countermeasures against our existing attack methods."
"What could those countermeasures be?"
Aomi looked around at the participants of the meeting, waiting for their answers.
Everyone's expressions were different.
Because of Aomi, Hatake Sakumo and Hiruko, who could participate in this high-level meeting usually reserved for the Hokage faction, displayed indifference.
In their view, all they needed was to follow Aomi's commands.
Sitting next to Hatake Sakumo, Kakuzu was even more so.
Compared to the Konoha identity given to him by Aomi, he identified more as "an employee working diligently for the world's best boss"…
Konoha meant nothing to him.
Jiraiya and Tsunade were pondering, but clearly hadn't found a suitable answer yet.
Namikaze Minato softly began to speak: "I think they intend to use their elite forces to clash against us…"
"Objectively speaking, the Tobirama series weapons target mid-level ninjas whose skills are relatively mediocre, and they aren't particularly effective against enemies with Kage Level strength and above."
"If I were the enemy, I would think about uniting the Kages from each village to form a special team for a decapitation strike."
"As for the current Konoha…"
Namikaze Minato earnestly looked at Aomi: "Without Aomi, there's no longer a possibility of contending against the Ninja Alliance Army…"
Aomi admiredly glanced at Namikaze Minato, worthy of being the man who would become the Fourth Hokage.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also chimed in at this moment:
"I agree with Minato's view. Although Aomi is a Flying Thunder God Jutsu User, this jutsu isn't omnipotent…"
"We could organize a guard unit to protect Aomi."
Sarutobi Hiruzen proposing to form a guard unit?
Even Aomi felt strange upon hearing this.
Having you as a protector is frightening…
"No need to form a guard unit, I will actively expose my location."
Aomi said calmly, "In this war, I will use all my might to secure at least twenty years of peace for Konoha."
"The tactic is simple, I will first go alone to eliminate as much of their living force as possible."
"What you all need to do is prepare to support me when my Chakra is depleted, then launch the second round of attack."
Uchiha Itachi looked bewilderedly at Aomi, unable to comprehend Aomi's words with his young mind.
Jiraiya's face changed. He could understand, but this was not the method of peace he envisioned…
Even though he had identified Aomi as the Child of Prophecy.
But it seemed like after visiting the Three Holy Lands, Aomi had become increasingly extreme?
Is this going to be a one-man battle against a hundred thousand?!
Everyone tried to persuade Aomi, thinking there were better plans.
But Aomi waved his hand, decided on the plan, and stated that he would actively launch an attack tomorrow, without the need for the previous tactics of defensive counterattacks.
After Aomi left, everybody's expressions were different.
Among them, Shimura Danzo was somewhat special. After being imprisoned, he fought valiantly at the Hidden Sand Battlefield alongside Sarutobi Hiruzen, overall fulfilling his duty.
So Sarutobi Hiruzen had him participate in the meeting again.
But upon seeing Aomi, Shimura Danzo always remembered the most painful day of his life…
While Aomi was speaking just now, Shimura Danzo kept his head down, trying hard not to draw attention, fearing Aomi might name him for unreasonable public humiliation.
Fortunately…
Aomi ignored him, and proposed what seemed to him to be a suicidal plan.
"If you want a man to perish, you must first make him mad…"
Shimura Danzo laughed inwardly, "The brainless Uchiha are always like this, not knowing their limits when they gain power!"
"Go ahead, I've already seen you being torn apart by One-Finger Nukite and Dust Release. Once you're dead, Konoha will still be Konoha!"
"Everything will return to normalcy!"
Uchiha Fugaku's eyes also flashed with a hint of odd light.
His Dojutsu foresaw his son Uchiha Itachi becoming the strongest in the Ninja World in the future…
But as the battlefield progresses and recognizing Aomi's strength, Uchiha Fugaku, in quiet solitude, can't help but doubt himself.
Aomi is so formidable, and far older than Itachi…
How can he surpass this mountain?
It seems now that this mountain might collapse on its own, enabling Itachi to rise above!
Indeed, the prophecy seen through the Mangekyo Dojutsu is absolute, and won't be wrong!
"Itachi, make sure to watch Uchiha Aomi's performance in the war. One must remain calm to achieve greatness, or even the best opportunities may be buried in an instant…"
Uchiha Fugaku whispered to Uchiha Itachi, his words seeped in uncontrollable excitement: "Study hard!"
Uchiha Itachi nodded, recalling Aomi's demeanor, his eyes full of curiosity.
Why does his always steady father have such intense emotional fluctuations whenever he faces this big brother called Aomi?
More importantly, Uchiha Itachi wondered how Aomi would secure twenty years of peace for Konoha…
"Shall we go and persuade Aomi together? This is too risky!"
Tsunade approached Hatake Sakumo and Kakuzu, anxiously speaking with this peculiar pair: "You two are key members of the Root and his close subordinates, and I'm his teacher…"
"He always listens to us. Although the situation is critical, it hasn't reached the point where Aomi has to bear the burden for Konoha alone…"
"Using Tobirama series weapons for drag, or guerrilla warfare, isn't that a more stable choice?"
Hatake Sakumo first nodded in agreement, then shook his head: "I agree with your view, Tsunade, but I am not planning to persuade Aomi…"
"He is more adept in war than any person in Konoha and calmer than anyone."
"What we must do is follow orders and guidance, and not interfere with his judgment."
Hatake Sakumo said so, but his heart was not calm.
Aomi's actions are indeed unusual, completely different from his usual strategic approach.
The determination in his eyes is like a samurai ready for death.
Why is it?
Why does Aomi harbor such thoughts and actions…
————————
Several days later.
On the battlefield.
Aomi stands alone on the vast plains, waiting for the arrival of the enemy's grand army.
Several hundred meters behind him is the Konoha military formation.
And on a nearby mountain peak.
Uchiha Izuna and others stared at the scene, their heads filled with questions…
What is Aomi planning to do?
