I, Yu Uchiha, am devoted to cultivating immortality

Just when Uchiha Nobushige was shrinking his head and looking for a way out, Uchiha Yu waved a shovel and commanded: "Nobushige, go and bring that bucket over."

"yes!"

Uchiha Nobushige hurriedly ran over and moved over with a squeak.

Uchiha Yuu picked up the large skewer, fished out the soaked meat pieces in the bucket, and put them into the large iron pot. After a quick stir-fry, a strange aroma soon began to steam up.

Uchiha Nobushige suddenly felt physically and mentally empty, as if there was a big hole in his stomach, and he was in desperate need of delicious food to fill the void, and his saliva flowed out involuntarily.

Miwa Masato smelled it, shook his head regretfully, and said, "The taste is okay, but it's still much worse than when it's fresh."

Uchiha Yu said with a smile: "There is no way, octopus legs are not shellfish meat. Drying them will only lose the umami and not increase the flavor."

This is where they found the giant octopus's lair, chopped off its legs again and again, and ate the remaining meat.

Although the two immortals are both big eaters, after Uchiha Yuu's breakthrough, his physical condition was not stable, and his appetite was sometimes high and sometimes low. There were times when he had a poor appetite and could only eat more than a hundred kilograms, and there were times when he had a huge appetite. When he swallowed five hundred pounds of meat in one go.

With the leftover meat, in order not to waste it, Uchiha Yu cut the meat into palm-sized pieces, spread them out and dried them in the sun to make octopus jerky the size of mahjong tiles.

Dried meat can be stored very well. When you want to eat it like today, you can enjoy the delicious taste of tailed beast chakra by soaking it in water.

Although Miwa Masayo and Uchiha Yuu always say that the taste is lost, this is a subtle difference that can only be perceived by the sharp senses of the cat immortal and the gourmet. In fact, Uchiha Yuu's technique is very exquisite. After the octopus meat is dried, The loss of flavor and nutrients is minimal.

The reason for having such a meal was because two consecutive days of recovery training had caused the Uchiha genin to lose a lot of physical strength and they were in urgent need of nutritional supplements.

Unexpectedly, the war caused prices to skyrocket in Yuno Country, and supplies were extremely scarce. Vegetables could still be bought at several times the price, but meat was unavailable at ten times the price.

And because the Kirigakure fleet was wandering at sea, Kumogakure ninjas and Konoha ninjas implemented a sea closure policy and did not allow a ship not under their control to enter the sea. Therefore, Yuno Country, which was clearly close to the sea, could not even eat fish.

Uchiha Yu had no choice but to take out the treasured dried octopus meat and make a pot of stew to replenish the health of his subordinates.

He must increase the intensity of his training because the atmosphere is becoming increasingly tense and a big battle is imminent. Now the Tiger Troops can huddle in the camp and train because there are not many tasks and they can be collected every day. Therefore, there are many Konoha ninjas in the camp, and their Uchiha group is not conspicuous.

But when the Kirigakure ninjas land, combat missions will definitely flow out like a tide. At that time, there will not be many ninjas in the Konoha ninja army camp.

The tiger troops would look very dazzling if they were left in an empty camp.

The organizational structure of Konoha Village is loose, and the supervision system is almost non-existent. Uchiha Yu is very good at finding opportunities for cheating and cheating in the rules, but the key to doing this kind of thing is to have a good eye and never commit crimes against the wind.

As long as he didn't want to be targeted by Orochimaru, he had to lead the Tiger Troops to the front line. After arriving at the front line, anything could happen. If he could increase his strength before that, one less person might die.

Uchiha Yu didn't expect zero losses to the Tiger Force, so while wooing these children, he also deliberately kept a distance to avoid excessive emotions that would make him feel uncomfortable in the future.

He, Uchiha Yuu, didn't want to open the Mangekyo Sharingan by feeling the soul-rending sadness.

The deliciousness of the octopus legs made the Uchiha genin want to stop. Although everyone didn't eat much, the meat full of tailed beast chakra contained amazing energy. Just this meal of meat completely made up for the two consecutive days of overeating. The deficit of high-intensity training.

Moreover, these young boys all felt that their bodies were getting warm, and there was an indescribable urge that made them restless.

Of course, the captains of this group of boys are different. The five older boys, Uchiha Shigenobu, Uchiha Ayumi, Uchiha Hiroto, Uchiha Kazuji, and Uchiha Tadamichi, are all 17 or 8 years old. Of course they know this kind of thing. What is impulse?

Uchiha Yu naturally knew that in order to prevent these 101 big boys from getting together and having nowhere to vent their energy, strange changes would occur, so he continued super-intense training overnight.

"Training! We need to practice every change of the four-four tactics three times. The captains of each team lead their respective teams and let's get started."

Uchiha Yu's order caused a burst of wailing. There were too many changes in the tactics of the Four-Four System. A complete drill would take at least an hour and a half.

Moreover, Uchiha Yuu's requirement is that at the end of each drill, all mistakes must be summarized, the reasons for the mistakes must be discussed, and methods to prevent mistakes must be discussed.

In addition to this relief, two and a half hours is the minimum for a complete pass. After three passes, it is almost dawn.

The five captains said nothing, because Uchiha Yu explained to them in advance that he did not expect the effect of octopus meat to be so strong. With this fire in their stomachs, all of them would not be able to sleep tonight.

It is to drain everyone's energy. Only when they are extremely tired can they fall asleep.

Facing the wails of his subordinates, Uchiha Yu just laughed and took the detachment under his direct command to leave the residence first and head towards the outside of the Ninja Army camp.

When they arrived at their respective training locations, the captains of each team would naturally follow the orders and explain the reasons for night training to their respective players. Uchiha Yu will not explain any problem to hundreds of people, because the audience exceeds two orders of magnitude, and the transmission of information can only be one-sided. It can only promote information and is not suitable for explaining problems.

To explain a problem, you need to get feedback from the other party. Only by knowing which part others don't understand and explaining specific parts in a targeted manner can the problem be explained clearly.

The subordinates all understood, but many of them couldn't accept it. It was just a meal, so why can't people sleep?

"Okay, you can lie down and rest now. No matter who it is, as long as you can sleep, you don't need to participate in the training tonight."

"Captain, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, this is Brother Yu's order."

"Haha, Brother Yu is really good at scaring us. Isn't he just sleeping? He lies down and falls asleep."

The captains were actually dubious about Uchiha Yu's words.

But after more than two months of training and changes, his prestige has reached a good level. Even if the captains don't believe it, they will conscientiously follow the orders.

Half an hour later, the five captains were all convinced.

None of their team members fell asleep, and they didn't feel the slightest calmness after lying down. They all felt restless.

My body felt like it was on fire, my heart was beating like a hammer, my blood was flowing as fast as a jet, my whole body was heating up, but I didn't even have a drop of sweat, and I couldn't close my dry eyes.

Then something happened to the youngest team members. They covered their noses and sat up, shouting to the captain: "Captain, I, I have a nosebleed."

"Me too, a lot."

"What should I do, captain? I can't stop it. I can't stop it anymore."

At this time, the guys who were the captains would smile evilly and shout: "Stand up, everyone's face will be red from holding it in, and they will all have nosebleeds if they lie down again."

"Now believe what Brother Yu said. What you are eating today is the rarest good thing in the ninja world, giant octopus meat that even the clan leader cannot eat."

"Brother Yuu hunted this from the sea, and processed it himself to preserve the chakra belonging to the tailed beast. Is this something that can be easily digested?"

"Everyone stand up, wipe away the nosebleeds, and let's start training."

"yes!!"

"Proficient in every variation of the 4-4 system tactics will not only allow everyone to survive until the end of the war, but it will increase the chance of survival for everyone. This is a life-saving thing, and must be practiced even in death."

"Got it, Captain!"

Under the leadership of the five captains, and following Uchiha Yu's teachings, the Tiger Troops began their own drills.

After the Tiger Force was established, Uchiha Yu granted the captains the privilege of adjusting the captain of each team based on their performance in training. The basis for adjustment is not personal strength, but the degree of understanding of tactics and the degree of tacit understanding with the captain.

The rule of not deciding the captain based on personal strength is definitely the first time in the ninja world. This is different from the rules of the entire ninja world.

If the members of the Tiger Force were not newcomers to the battlefield, and if they were not sincerely convinced by Yuu Uchiha, this change would definitely cause an uproar and even cause an uproar. It would end halfway without waiting for results or major mistakes.

Uchiha Yuu has a deep understanding of this. He also taught the four-four tactics before, but he never mentioned changing the captain. He strictly followed the rules of the ninja world, and whoever can fight becomes the team leader.

It was not until he believed he had gained enough prestige that this was implemented within the Tiger Forces, which had full control.

Only by promoting the ninja who is best at judgment to the squad leader and cooperating tacitly with the 17-member squad captain can the complete Four-Four tactical system be achieved.

The so-called four-four tactical system is naturally derived from the famous three-three system. When Yu Uchiha was a soldier, he was probably the last batch of infantry to practice this set of light infantry tactics.

In fact, few people know that the starting point of No. 1's design of the three-three system was actually the helplessness of Rabbit's poor soldier quality and poor equipment.

Back then, rabbits had no cannons at a distance, and there were not enough bullets at a distance of 100 meters. Even in close combat, the soldiers' bodies were too thin, and they still suffered greatly. Only about 30 meters, the distance between the two sides throwing grenades at each other, is the range where the disadvantage is minimal.

Therefore, Rabbit's tactics are to rush to 30 meters, blow up the enemy and make them dizzy, and then take the opportunity to rush up and fight with the bayonet.

How to get close to 30 meters has become an urgent problem to be solved. The only solution that can be thought of is to rely on new tactics.

But the poor quality of soldiers is not only because they are hungry and too thin, but also their literacy rate is extremely close to zero. The tactical design cannot be complicated, otherwise it will not be promoted.

With so many harsh requirements, the three-by-three system was finally forced out.

There are only two core ideas in this tactic. The first is to minimize casualties. The second is that everyone only needs to care about one thing at the same time.

Uchiha Yu believed that the three-three system was also a tactic that was more in line with ninjas, but it just needed to be improved, so the four-four system was born.

A 17-man squad is structurally divided into a captain and four four-man squads, each with a squad leader.

The captain is a commander who is not directly involved in the battle. He concentrates on observing the enemy's situation, judging what tactical changes should be adopted, and then conveying them to the captains of the four squads.

The four squad captains listened intently to the captain's command and directed the squad members to fight according to the tactical changes specified by the captain's order.

The three team members followed the squad leader's orders and concentrated on executing their respective tactical actions.

Everyone is focused on doing one thing, and without interference from other things, they can naturally do their best.

When the commander connects with 3 or 4 subordinates, there will be no command difficulties at all, and the execution of tactics can be maximized.

Considering the special circumstances of the ninja world, the captain of the detachment, as the sole core and initiator of tactics, will become the first target of the enemy's hunting. Therefore, the captain not only needs to be good at commanding, but also good at fighting to ensure his own safety.

Since the captain's conditions were so harsh, Uchiha Yu simply gave the captain the responsibility of resisting the surprise attack. He acted as the tank for the entire team, dragging down the enemy's elites and creating opportunities for the detachment to encircle and kill the enemy.

The content of tactical training is all new and is constantly being improved. After all, the original template comes from the end of the world, and there are always various details that need to be reconsidered in the ninja world.

Therefore, training is extremely difficult and can only be compensated for by higher training intensity.

As for the final result, no one in the Tiger Force has a clear idea. They can only wait for a real battle and use the blood of themselves and the enemy to finally prove it.

The opportunity to fight came quickly. On the fourth day after the establishment of the Tiger Force, the Kirigakure fleet successfully landed, and the Kumogakure ninja and Konoha ninja instantly exploded.

The Konoha ninja army was all in action, and all the Konoha ninjas in battle order received orders. The order to assemble required them to gather at different locations to contain the Kirigakure ninjas who were attacking crazily.

It was completely different from the previous few months when the Kirigakure ninjas always entered the country of Yu in scattered pieces, and the three major ninja villages fought in random melee.

The Kirigakure ninja chose to land on the southern coastline defended by the Konoha ninja army, temporarily avoiding the Kumogakure ninja. Orochimaru could only deal with this wave of attacks independently, and he had to be careful of malicious sneak attacks by the Kumogakure ninja.

On the battlefield, all contracts are waste paper, and force is the only truth. If the attack of the Kirigakure ninja causes chaos in Konoha, the Kumogakure ninja will definitely temporarily ignore the Kirigakure ninja who has declared war and launch an attack on the Konoha ninja. attack.

Moreover, Cloud Hidden Village is extremely shameless. Even if they have launched an attack on Konoha, they will not declare war, they will just drag it out and leave a way out for themselves.

This is what they did in the last battle. They had been fighting for almost a year, but the three generations of Raikage did not declare war. Even though the Third Hokage was so anxious that he took the initiative to declare war on Kumogakure Village, the Third Raikage, a reckless man, could actually shamelessly say that if he didn't accept it, it wouldn't be considered a war.

In Uchiha Yu's opinion, the third generation Raikage Ai is the strongest among all three generations, especially as a leader who is undisputedly strong. For the benefit of Yunyin Village and the Kingdom of Thunder, the Third Raikage never cared about his own face and reputation, but he would protect the reputation of Yunyin Village at all costs.

Any agreement signed by the Cloud Hidden Village will be implemented without compromise by the Third Raikage. He bases the policy flexibility of the Cloud Hidden Village on his own face. As long as he is shameless enough, the Cloud Hidden Village will have flexible room for advancement and retreat. .

With the experience of the last war, Orochimaru knew that he must attack the Kirigakure ninja while leaving enough strength to defend against the Kirigakure ninja.

As a result, the power to resist Kirigakure is seriously insufficient.

There was no way. Although Konoha Village had a great family, the largest number of ninjas, and the strongest strength, there were three battlefields going on, and the military strength did not have an advantage on any battlefield.

The strength of the Konoha ninja army was not as large as that of the Kirigakure ninja army who landed. The Kumogakure ninja's leering and malicious neutrality restrained two thousand Konoha ninjas, and the number of ninjas that could be used to fight Kirigakure was only five thousand.

A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice, and Orochimaru has nothing to do about it.

When the headquarters only had his subordinate Nara Shikaku, Leng Lord Orochimaru couldn't help but sigh: "I can't do anything now. I can only hope that the Konoha ninjas on the front line can burst into their potential and withstand the attack of the Kirigakure ninjas." attack."

Nara Shikaku echoed almost pleadingly: "As long as we can withstand it, even if it only temporarily stabilizes the battle line, the Kumogakure ninja army will determine the target of attack to be Kirigakure."

"As long as the two families fight, the two thousand reserves used to defend Kumogakure will be freed, and everything will be much easier then."

Orochimaru fell silent. Unwilling to give up, he racked his brains, thinking desperately about where he could squeeze out some strength.

Suddenly the cold snake eyes flashed with hope, and he asked: "Where is the 'Tiger Troop' of the Uchiha family now?"

Nara Shikaku was stunned, but as a Nara, he immediately recalled the corresponding order and replied: "Tiger troops gathered at defense points 6 to 41 of the third defense line."

Orochimaru immediately ordered: "Order: Bring up the tiger troops and go to... the first line of defense, yes, to the protruding part of Kubota Village."

Nara Shikaku was stunned, and then his eyes turned red.

He quickly said: "Lord Orochimaru, this order is inappropriate. The Tiger Force is composed of genin of the Uchiha family, and the commander Uchiha Yu is the only chunin. They went to the Kubota Salient, and they couldn't hold on with their strength. How much time, we can’t afford it now…”

Nara Shikaku's gaffe was stopped by Orochimaru. He even smiled and said to his staff: "Shikaku, I am different from my teacher. I am not that stingy and I have no prejudice against Uchiha."

"I believe that Uchiha Yu, a chuunin, and the hundred Uchiha genin led by him, I believe that they have unimaginable combat power and can shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending the Kubota Salient."

"Antlers, do you believe my vision?"

"Lord Orochimaru, I believe you."

"Then issue my order, the sooner the better."

"yes!"
