Chapter 19 - Two year time skip, Third War and the plot!

*boom* *boom* *boom*

The sounds of explosive tags after getting triggered echoed through out the borders of the Land of Grass, an ally of the Fire country...

Hundreds of shinobi were fighting against each other, it wasn't until dawn when the last of the fighting stopped and the last of the enemy was killed.

Yuki walked through these battlefields almost every time he was sent out. He was used to seeing carnage, but not at a level where hundreds of bodies were left, dismembered and charred... It took him a while to get used to the scenes however as time passed he got accustomed to it.

He sighed as he walked through the silent battlefield as the rest of the Konoha shinobi followed him meekly looking at his back in awe.

Yuki was so famous at the moment due to his war efforts which made the rest of the four great nations eye on him cautiously.

"Report!" He ordered in a flat voice which made his allies shudder however one brave jonin stepped forward and reported loudly so that everyone could hear, "Yes sir! Iwa casualties are at three hundred and seventy five dead and ten wounded, another five had escaped. Our casualties are, two hundred and eleven dead and sixty wounded, with hundred and twenty nine still able to fight!" Yuki nodded his head in acknowledgement and ordered "Good, Take the dead bodies of our people, let's go back to base!".

"Yes sir!" Said the army as they slowly walked up to the dead Konoha shinobi and stored them inside the Storage scrolls, and went back to one of the many bases of Konoha situated in the Land of Grass, happily.

Along the way, he saw many posters of propaganda made by the Fire country which made him smirk a bit. But one particular one was very eye catching, "Konoha, the will of the Fire country!" It said with a drawing of many Konoha shinobi with raised hands and cheering after winning in a battle, He shook it off of his head as the army had reached its destination.

He then reported to his superiors and remembered what happended after Sakumo was ostracised by the village after his mission had failed.

Yuki had gone out to buy some groceries from the Mart and overheard some chuunin shinobi talking outside of it.

"Did you hear the news?" The chuunin on the right side asked his friend

"What news?" His friend asked as the Chuunin who asked looked at him weirdly.

"Dude, apparently the "White fang" failed a mission that was very important to us and killed himself!" He said making an angry expression.

"What! Really?!" His friend asked in shock

"Yeah! He aborted the mission trying to save his teammates who 'willingly' gave themselves upto the enemy and so he committed suicide in shame!" The chuunin continued.

Yuki who heard this walked away as he had enough of people talking shit about others.

He was so distracted by his thoughts that he knocked on someone.

"Ow! Watch where you are going!" The person scolded and got up.

"A kid?" Yuki thought and apologised "sorry about that!" And glanced at the kid. "Kid kakashi!" He shouted inwardly and stared at the Kakashi who was around five.

"Is something on my face?" Kakashi asked coldly

"No nothing, just that you remind me of someone..." replied Yuki as Kakashi visibly trembled, "I get that alot" he said looking down at the floor to cover his teary face, Yuki pat his shoulder and kneeled to his height and spoke "It wasn't his fault you know?".

By the time Kakashi looked up, Yuki was gone.

*flashback end*

Yuki smiled unconsciously "I promised myself that I would not change the too plot! However Mikoto is a different story and Sasuke and Itachi!" He thought inside his head and entered his tent.

At night...

"Yuki-sama!" A shinobi called him from outside as Yuki opened the tent entrance and walked out.

"What is it?" He asked nonchalantly as the ninja launched at him with a kunai at lightning speed.

*slash* *Thud*

The ninja fell down on the floor, his 'henge' was gone revealing a dark skinned man who was bleeding from his throat as he covered it with his bloody hands to close the jugular vein.

He moved his legs around for some time while making choking noises until all the Konoha shinobi arrived at the scene.

The dark skinned man stopped moving staring at Yuki with wide eyes, he was dead as the Konoha shinobi stared at him and then at Yuki, who was holding a clean kunai which showed his profession in the art of killing.

He glanced at the crowd and opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted, "Yuki-sama we apologise for causing problems to you, please forgive us!" They all said in unison and bowed apologetically as Yuki sighed and went inside his tent while reminding them to "clean it up!".

The Konoha shinobi quickly rushed to work, they did not want to offend one of the strongest ninjas in Konoha, if not the strongest after the hokage and offend the Uchiha clan as well.

The next day...

Yuki was lying on his bed, thinking about everything that happened and felt a bad feeling which was subtle but he still felt it.

At an unknown location at the border of the Land of Rock and Lightning...

"Tsuchikage what do you want to talk about?" Asked a bulky figure in a menacing voice.

"Nothing much Raikage! It's about that tree hugger, Uchiha Yuki" Replied Onoki nonchalantly, almost as if the third Raikage wasn't in his eyes.

"What about him?" E asked staring at Onoki as Onoki cleared his throat to speak "Honestly speaking, I'm scared of his powers! According to my spies, he has the Susano-" however at this point E interrupted "What is a Susano?".

Onoki chuckled as he reminisced the past and explained "The Susano is a power of the sharingan, first used by Uchiha Madara! It creates a sort of Skeletal figure around the user giving it a strong defense! I first encountered it when my master Mu and I went seeking for an alliance with Konoha... obviously it faile-"

"Shut up!" Interrupted E, annoyed by Onoki's ranting, they were enemies who invaded each other occasionally. Onoki glared at E and spoke once more "I'm willing to send a two thousand of my men, just to kill him however that is not enough, considering the boy has Madara's abilities!"

E looked at him in shock "You are going to send two thousand of your shinobi?!" He asked as his spittle sprayed.

"I won't let you beat me to this, Tsuchikage! I'm sending Two thousand five hundred shinobi then!" E said as he laughed in glee at Onoki's annoyed expression.

The two reached an agreement, four thousand five hundred shinobi were being prepared to fight in a battle against one man in an year's worth of time!

Back to Yuki...

"Is Mikoto thinking about me?" He mumbled after sneezing three times and went back to sleep, hoping to sleep longer for the day.
