Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Various clan leaders and clan elders gather in the meeting room as the meeting starts. Heated discussions start to occur as various issues arose.

"I will deploy my Root Anbus on Iwa battlefront. But my Root anbus will remain independent from the command of Shinobi commanders of the Shinobi unit. They will only take orders from me and me alone. I have trained them with years of hard work and dedication, at least I should be able to command them." Danzo presses this matter as he refuses to oblige to any request pertaining to the command of Root anbus.

"If only your disciple Tsunade was here, then we could prevent many casualties during this war. Her contributions during the Second Shinobi War are a testament to her prowess. But she is still stubborn as ever and refuses to get over the grief of the death of her lover and younger brother. What a waste of talent and time?" Koharu rebukes Tsunade for her incompetency as she looks at Hiruzen.

"Also, one of the Sannins Jiraiya is now out of Village. His whereabouts are unknown to us. He could have been a huge help for the village. At least, we have Orochimaru to assist us in this war." Homura raises another issue.

"We aren't here to discuss the whereabouts of my disciples but to think of a strategy to win the war. Also, I have summoned them back to the Village. I have sent Jiraiya to scout some intel and Tsunade will arrive shortly," Hiruzen stresses on the graveness of matter.

Koharu and Homura snorts but nods quietly.

"Since, all of the Clan leaders have gathered here. Let's start the meeting."

Various clan leaders and elders present their views and support in one way or another,

"My Akimichi clan will provide Chakra pills and medicines during the war." Choza Akimichi shows his support.

"My Hyuga Clan will take part in scouting, sensing, and reconnaissance teams. We will be a part of the intelligence-gathering team." Hiashi Hyuga present his opinion.

"My Nara clan will take care of logistics."

"Then our Inuzuka clan will from a tracking team."

"Our Yamanaka Clan will handle the Communication and intel transfer."

The meeting lasts for a while with many disputes and conflicts in between.

In the end, a deployment strategy made by Shikaku Nara was unanimously approved by all council members. None of them have the capabilities of outsmarting a Nara in terms of Intelligence and wisdom. Various clans deployed their reserve forces to partake in war.

Many retired Shinobis were requested to assist in the war. As for the Uchiha clan, the majority of the Police Force is deployed to the battlefront with only a remaining few left in the Village to guard and maintain the order in the Village.

After the meeting is over. Hiruzen sighs in relief. He picks up the latest intel regarding the war as he skims through it.

'Looks like this war will bring many great changes to the Shinobi world. Peace is nothing but a pipe-dream in this world.'

---------------------

Meanwhile in the Uchiha compound,

Shisui and Izuna are training in Shurikenjutsu and Taijutsu as they spar with each other. They continuously attack each other with Kunai's and Shurikens and sometimes hand-to-combat. Izuna is honing Shisui's skills in close combat as that is one of the weaknesses of Shisui.

Both of them switch to tantos as they clash with each other. Shisui is a quick learner as he is soaking all the knowledge in Taijutsu and Kenjutsu like a sponge. Izuna is training Shisui in some basic tactics that will help him during the war.

It has been seven days since their previous mission. The sorrow and grief over the loss of his teammate is too big of a burden for Shisui.

Shisui recuperated his wounds and mental trauma in this week as he starts to understand the cruelty of this world. Akira, Aiko, Yagami, and Fumiko are on the battlefield as they are requested by the village to fight in the war due to the shortage of manpower.

Hiruzen gave them a week to recuperate from their wounds and traumas as they are required to fight on the battlefield too.

After training for a while, Shisui starts to breathe heavily and ask for a break,

"Time-out Nii-san. I am…huff…huff…exhausted. Let's take a break for a while."

I stop our spar as I pick up a towel from the nearby tree and give it to Shisui. Shisui wipes his sweat and looks at me.

"Nii-san, you aren't even breathing heavily much less sweating. Your endurance and stamina are on a different level than me." Shisui complains.

"Shisui, with enough practice you will reach the same level as me. For now, let's return home and have some food."

Shisui nods as we walk in the streets of the Uchiha clan. The usual hustle-bustle of clan is nowhere to be seen. Occasionally a few kids and old grandmas could be seen on the streets. The war has heavily affected the business of many shops. The entire business district of the Uchiha clan is deserted. Even my favorite sweet shops where I buy Dango and other sweets are closed. Shisui sulks as he looks at the closed shop.

"Hey, Nii-san. Do you think we will also participate in war?"

I look at Shisui who has a very pensive expression.

"Yes, sooner or later we will be deployed on frontlines to fight for Village. Not only us, even freshly graduated genins with no experience will be sent to the battlefield if the situation demands it. I heard from the father that Konoha is flanked from sides by Iwa and Kumo shinobis.

Shisui I have a serious question for you? Would you mind if I ask from you?"

Shisui shakes his head as he replies,

"Nii-san, just ask the question. There is no need for my approval."

"Then, Shisui what do you think of the current Shinobi system? I mean even small kids like us are sent to war to fight for Village. What do you think about it?" I question him in a serious tone.

"Nii-san, ain't it clear? We all are shinobis and it is our duty to protect our clan and village. Our clan is a part of the village and to protect the clan, I have to protect the village from invaders." Shisui has 'it's obvious' expression on his face as he replies to me.

'Guess, I am the weird one who still has some of the values and mindset from the previous world. This world has the supernatural element Chakra which made being of this world a lot stronger. I also don't know in what way will this world change me? After all, I turned from a powerless person to an overpowered cheat. Will too much power consume me or will I able to overcome the demons of my heart?'

I look at the 'Sin seal' on my hand as I shook my head.

'Guess, only time will tell. For now, I have to focus my attention on other matters. As we walk towards our home, a shadow flickers and appears in front of us.

'Looks like we have to join the war earlier than I thought.'

I am surprised by the person who appeared in front of me.

"I finally found you, Izuna."

Uncle Sakumo appears in front of me as he starts to explain to me,

"Hokage-sama has ordered me to include both of you in my team. We will be moving towards the Kumo battlefront in just about an hour. Gather all of your stuff and necessities, we will meet at the entrance of the village."

Poof…

Sakumo-san dissipates in a puff of smoke as he turned out to be a Shadow Clone.

"Shisui, this answers your earlier question. Now let's hurry and prepare our supplies for the war. We only have an hour to do so."

Both Shisui and I flicker away as we prepare our supplies.

---------------

After an hour later, at Konoha's entrance gate

Nearly, fifty Jounins, ninety chunnins, and large numbers of genins were gathered. Sakumo stands in front of them as he lectures them.

"This is battalion one of our Shinobi unit number four. I am Sakumo Hatake, your Unit commander. Other battalions will gather soon. As for now, all of you march towards the battlefront. I will meet you all shortly with other battalions. For now, the Captain of your battalion will lead you. Do any of you have any queries?"

"No, Sir Commander." All of us shouts in unison.

The battalion marches towards Kumo battlefront as Shisui and I join them.

We arrive at the battlefront in seven hours as we join the camp. The Captain of the Patrol Guards had a meeting with our Captain as both of them devise a strategy to deploy us for the meantime. Our reinforcements will arrive soon and then we can choose an offensive stance.

The tired battalion relaxes for an hour. After an hour we finally step on the battleground.
