But looking at it now...
It's true that people on our side are overthinking things.
The Akatsuki organization is truly powerful, which is why they dared to launch an attack on Konoha.
In an instant, the ninjas on the training ground started discussing amongst themselves, creating a noisy and chaotic scene.
But everyone was only discussing one thing.
Regarding how to attack the Akatsuki organization next.
However, just as everyone was getting into the discussion, a rough voice rang out throughout the training ground.
"Everyone, be quiet!!!"
The Fourth Raikage's roar seemed to encompass the entire training ground.
The ninjas, who had been engaged in a heated discussion, all fell silent.
All of them focused their attention on the Fourth Raikage.
Seeing the gazes cast upon him by the ninja army, the Fourth Raikage said in a calm voice, "Although the Akatsuki's ninja numbers are not much fewer than ours, I have faith!"
At this point, he looked around at everyone present and spoke again.
"I believe! The victor in this battle will undoubtedly be on our side!!!"
"Besides, we haven't even fought yet."
"Don't you all believe in your own abilities?"
"And where did your ruthlessness go?"
"Were they all scared away by the Akatsuki army?"
"Don't you even have the belief in victory?"
As the Fourth Raikage finished speaking, he became increasingly agitated, and his voice grew much louder than before.
As his voice grew louder, the atmosphere among the Allied Shinobi Forces was stirred up.
The solemnity on everyone's faces vanished, replaced by an unusual excitement.
"Lord Raikage is right. Although the Akatsuki members are about the same number as our Allied Shinobi Forces, it's not time for a real battle yet, so no one can say for sure which side will be stronger!"
"That makes sense, I believe the victor will be on our side!!!"
"It is our duty to annihilate the Akatsuki!"
"For the peace of the ninja world, we are willing to offer our hearts!"
The deafening sound reverberated throughout the training ground, and everyone felt an unprecedented surge of excitement!
Judging from their excited expressions, they seemed eager to fight the Akatsuki to the death.
The five Kage, seeing the ninja army's excited state, each breathed a long sigh of relief.
The five of them knew better than anyone else.
Once a battle breaks out with the Akatsuki, morale is the most important factor.
If the Allied Shinobi Forces lose their fighting spirit, then this battle will definitely end in defeat.
But the current high spirits will definitely boost the ninjas' morale significantly.
This is definitely advantageous in the fight against the Akatsuki.
At this moment, Tsunade looked at the more than 80,000 ninjas who were filled with excitement, and then looked at the other four Kage.
When Onoki, Mei Terumi, Gaara, and the Fourth Raikage saw the look Tsunade gave them, they instantly understood its meaning.
Immediately, the four nodded to Tsunade.
Upon seeing this, Tsunade immediately nodded in response.
After a brief exchange of glances, Tsunade refocused her attention on the Allied Shinobi Forces.
Seeing the excited expressions on everyone's faces, she understood.
Now, I need to address that unconfirmed piece of information.
After all, releasing the intelligence now while the ninjas' high spirits haven't subsided would at least not severely damage the Allied Shinobi Forces' confidence.
Having made up her mind, Tsunade said loudly, "Also, there's something else I need to tell you."
"Lord Hokage, please speak." At this moment, a voice came from the crowd.
Soon, everyone's eyes were on Tsunade.
Upon hearing this, Tsunade nodded.
Immediately afterwards, she took out a scroll and began to make hand seals.
The next moment, a huge portrait appeared.
The portrait depicts a man with long black hair, dressed in armor.
This person is none other than Uchiha Madara!!!
The moment the portrait appeared, everyone present was stunned.
Immediately, many ninjas thought for a moment and then realized what was going on.
"Uchiha Madara!!!"
"Isn't this Madara Uchiha, who is on par with Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi?"
"Yes, why did the Hokage take out his portrait?"
"Well, who knows? But it's unlikely they'd just take it out for no reason, right?"
Immediately, the ninjas on the field began to discuss among themselves.
A huge question mark appeared on each of their faces.
Nobody understood.
Why did Tsunade take out Madara Uchiha's portrait?
Of course.
The people present naturally did not believe that Tsunade had only shown it to them.
It must have an effect.
Chapter 191 Is Uchiha Madara an imposter?!
at the same time.
Listening to the chatter of everyone in the training field, Tsunade's expression turned serious. She said loudly, "I'm sure you all know the person in this portrait. His name is Uchiha Madara."
"As for his life experience, I think you are all familiar with it, right?"
Upon hearing this, the more than 80,000 ninjas below nodded in agreement.
Who in the entire ninja world doesn't know about a figure as important as Uchiha Madara?
Seeing the ninja army nod in response, Tsunade continued, "I just received news that one of the Akatsuki members looks very much like Uchiha Madara."
Upon hearing this, the more than 80,000 ninjas in front of them immediately became agitated.
Each of them wore a look of astonishment.
"What?! There's someone in Akatsuki who looks a lot like Madara Uchiha?! Holy crap, this can't be a joke, right?!"
"Yes, is there anything wrong with the information that the Hokage obtained?"
"Yes, could the intelligence be wrong?"
In an instant, the atmosphere on the entire training field became tense.
When Tsunade, Gaara, Mei Terumi, Ōnoki, and the Fourth Raikage saw this scene, their expressions changed slightly.
The five of them could all understand the astonished expressions on the faces of the ninja army before them.
"Quiet! Quiet!"
The Fourth Raikage gestured for the ninja army to pause, and said with a serious expression, "Don't speculate yet, let the Hokage finish speaking."
After he finished speaking, the noise in the originally noisy training ground gradually subsided, and eventually everyone stopped speaking and focused their attention on Tsunade.
Everyone present wanted to hear what Tsunade would say next.
At this moment, Tsunade glanced around at everyone, took a deep breath, and then spoke again:
"Everyone, please don't get too excited. Although that's what the information says, I also know one thing."
"Uchiha Madara is already dead, and he was killed by my great-grandfather himself. His body has been brought back to Konoha Village."
"Therefore, I don't think it's possible that Madara Uchiha is still alive."
"That is to say..."
"The Uchiha Madara in the Akatsuki organization now might just look a lot like him."
"I think this is very likely some kind of tactic used by the Akatsuki. They want to use Madara Uchiha's appearance to demoralize our Allied Shinobi Forces! They are deliberately trying to disrupt our morale."
"Furthermore, as soon as I received this news, I immediately dispatched spies to gather intelligence."
"So far, the spies haven't sent any reports back."
After listening to Tsunade's explanation, the ninja army all understood.
They each tilted their heads and discussed with their companions.
Especially considering Tsunade's answer, everyone felt that it wasn't impossible.
"Yes, Madara Uchiha was killed by the Hokage's great-grandfather, and his body was taken back to Konoha. So there's absolutely no way Madara Uchiha could still be alive!"
"That's right, how could Madara Uchiha possibly escape the discerning eyes of the God of Shinobi?"
"Yes, there's absolutely no way he could have escaped."
"Based on the same analysis, it seems that the Uchiha Madara in the Akatsuki organization is fake, and definitely cannot be real!"
"Makes sense, makes sense."
The ninja army was abuzz with discussion. They had initially seemed quite surprised, but now they had recovered considerably.
