At 10 a.m. that day, Fugaku Uchiha sent a final message back to Konoha Village just before attacking Kusagakure: The Konoha Blitz unit was ready to assault Kusagakure, and Konoha Village would officially enter a state of special military action.

Fugaku Uchiha declared, "From this moment on, I am just a ninja under the illumination of the Will of Fire. I once again wear this epaulet, the most sacred and precious to me as the commander-in-chief. Before final victory arrives, I will never take off this epaulet; otherwise, I will sacrifice myself for the village."

As soon as Fugaku's message returned, it stirred up waves of fervent cheers among the villagers.

Even before the results of the special military action had emerged, people spontaneously took to the streets, shouting, "Glory to the Uchiha! Glory to Advisor Gojo! Glory to Konoha!"

Many thoughtful small merchants voluntarily offered free water, food, and basic ninja tools to these village-loving youths.

Large merchants formed groups and went to the entrance of the Uchiha clan's residence, pulling cart after cart of supplies, striving to be merchants who love the village and enhancing their favorability in Konoha Village.

Konoha Village fell into an unprecedented frenzy.

There was no sign of the usual downturn brought by the outbreak of war; instead, due to the special military action, the village's economy was greatly stimulated, igniting the Will of Fire in the villagers' hearts.

Merchants found markets for their goods; ordinary villagers had topics to discuss during meals; the ninja academy had goals to strive for; and the village leadership gained data templates from the war.

A Konoha Village where no one was injured—mission accomplished.

At this moment, Konoha's teahouses, ninja tool shops, cafes—all were packed with people gathering in front of televisions and loudspeakers recently installed by the Konoha News Agency, watching and listening for updates that might come from the front lines at any time.

Some enthusiastic individuals even set up betting pools, wagering on when the Konoha Blitz unit would bring back good news.

Perhaps, in the next second, news of Konoha's great victory would arrive.

So, what was the current situation of the Konoha Blitz unit?

"What's the situation with Kusagakure now?" The still robust Ōnoki stood at the forefront, eyes closed, speaking calmly.

Behind him were hundreds of strong, eager Iwagakure ninjas.

Even though they were supposed to be the assisting side, the number of elite ninjas they brought exceeded that of Konoha Village.

"Feed the ninjas for days, use them when needed." Having been dormant for a long time, Iwagakure was eager to bare its fangs in the ninja world and fiercely tear off a big piece of meat.

Originally, they had no interest in Kusagakure, but according to feedback from the intelligence department, Kumogakure had stationed troops there, and now they couldn't help but get excited.

Not only were there regular Kumogakure ninja troops...

It's said that Kumogakure's Two-Tails Jinchūriki was also sent to Kusagakure as a supervising officer.

What does this mean?

It means they could replicate the battles from the Third Ninja War, using overwhelming numbers to exhaust the Two-Tails Jinchūriki to death.
