Chapter 222 : Departure To The Front Line 2

Kirito looked at the massive army of shinobi in front of him and took a deep breath before opening his mouth, he knew that repeating what Gaara did in the anime wouldn't work, he didn't have a strong position as a Kage should have not to mention, the only thing going on for him was his power which even the other Kages has to agree after what he saw in the 5 Kage Summit.

That was the only reason he got this position in the first place and now he had to make his worth known to his troops otherwise they would not listen to him when the times demanded.

So he started with what let him to this floor in the first place. It was POWER.

With a sudden surge of power, the atmosphere around him changed, but before completely releasing his domineering Haki (Conqueror's Haki), he first shaped it, trying to content it only so that it doesn't go on a rampage not to mention he also holds back to just give the right amount of oppression and nothing more.

----

The Shinobi from all different villages stood together but there was hardly any harmony. There were small quarrels breaking out among them.

It's just unrealistic for their leaders to suddenly ask them to work together after years and years of bad blood between them. No matter how heart-touching Gaara's speech was, it can only reach a person who has never seen the horrors of war and has never lost a loved one.

It might be enough for manga readers or anime watchers from the 21st century but not for the hard hearted shinobis who long so much because of the other side, and also have taken much from the other side.

"Will you take responsibility for all the Iwa Shinobi killed by your village,"

"Tch, why do we have to work with the mist village, they are murderers who kill their own people,"

"What did you say punk,"

"Please stop, we need to work together,"

"Like I ever work with this Cloud Shinobi"

Many shinobi were angry and shouting even ready to fight each other but suddenly pressure appeared out of nowhere.

Their eyes widened, their breathing started to get heavy and they felt like the gravity itself had increased around them.

"T.. this, w... what is this," they mutter out with much difficulty. It was like a Biju suddenly spotted them and was coming to devour them.

----

Kirito who just released his Conqueror's Haki looked around and noticed that people near him were the most affected. Even shinobi like Kakashi was stunned, this made him realise that he didn't hold back enough and thus with much difficulty, he retreated more of his Haki.

For him, observation Haki is the easiest to handle as he was doing it for the longest time in the form of Hyper Focus then followed by Armament Haki as he thought previously something else entirely. But still, it was good, he can control.

The real problem is the Conqueror's Haki, not only this is the hardest Haki to master but also he doesn't have much time to train in it, if only this had been given to him by the system, he could have full control that was not the case.

"Sorry," Kirito slowly said to Kakashi who was the only one among all the other shinobi there, who knew about Haki.

"Please restrain this ability of yours on the battlefield," Kakashi said while also making sure that others heard him, and ease their already-readied hands to form Jutsus.

"Listen, Everyone," Kirito shouted after adjusting his Haki once more.

"I know that all of you have differences but believe me this war which we are about to fight is much more than just villages," Kirito said and his Haki somehow made his voice amplified.

All the shinobi looked at the person talking, and she saw a man with only one hand, wearing a black cloak standing in the middle of the 4 highly powerful shinobi.

This person was none other than Kirito Namikaze, the son of Minato Namikaze the Fourth Hokage. And even seeing his face was giving them the chills.

Kirito seeing that the Shinobi quieted down, spoke further.

" Make no mistake, when we later fight the enemy. This war is not to gain natural resources or to establish supremacy. Let me remind you again, if we lose, the shinobi kind is doomed, if we lose then humankind is doomed and if we don't win then the next person who dies will be our family and friends.

This time the enemy will not be a fellow human," Kirito said, revealing something that he officially shouldn't know but he didn't care and told the truth anyway.

" Since I was born, there was one thing which I was forced to accept. That we are shinobi, and we fight to save our love once, we fight because we have to. Once again the situation has come to this where we have to fight.

But I am glad that this time around, I will not be killing any humans, a fellow shinobi who just wants to end the fight and go back home.

So here I am, asking all of you to work with me, help me and your fellow shinobi, because for the first time in history, we have a chance to fight together, for the first time in history, there is no broken truths and lies. There is just one truth and one lie.

For the first time, we stand here not by the name of a nation but as Shinobi. Let all your fury this time be directed toward the one true enemy, without any guilty conscious. For this one let us stand together and fight side by side." Kirito said, honestly he wasn't even planning to give a prep talk but something after remembering the music ' Departure to the Front Line' changed inside him and thus for the first time he opened his heart and said what he truly felt.

"Not Shabby, not shabby at all," Kakashi from the side said and showed a thumbs up.
