211 Four Children, New Assault

Recently, the biggest event in Konoha was the birth of the Fourth Hokage's children. 

After Kushina gave birth, Hyuga Lindy and Uchiha Mikoto also went into labor coincidentally, both on the same day.

Although a large number of Anbu were stationed around Konoha Hospital, Lindy and Mikoto were still ordinary ninjas. 

Unlike Kushina, who was the Nine Tails Jinchūriki, they didn't require the entire village to be on high alert.

As the Uchiha clan leader and Simu's father-in-law, Uchiha Sifang also arrived at the hospital. 

Simu waited anxiously outside the ward.

Suddenly, a baby's cry echoed from the delivery room. Simu's tense expression softened. 

A moment later, Nohara Rin came out carrying two babies.

"Congratulations, Sensei! Mrs. Lindy gave birth to twins," Rin said with a smile.

Simu grinned. He wasn't surprised it was something he'd sensed early on with his Observation Haki, detecting two faint life forces.

Thanks to Simu's strong build, he could easily hold a baby in one hand. 

The twins, a boy and a girl both had black hair, unlike his first child, Shinichi, who was born on September 13th.

Interestingly, the twins had their mother's eyes white eyes of Byakugan. 

As for Shinichi, his hair was the bright red unique to the Uzumaki clan, likely due to Kushina's dominant genes.

Kushina held Shinichi in her arms and smiled, saying,

"Look, these are your little siblings."

While they were talking, another child was born.

The moment she came into the world, a terrifying aura filled the entire hospital.

In a flash, Simu appeared in the delivery room.

Uchiha Mikoto lay pale and exhausted, holding a newborn baby girl in her arms. Nohara Rin, who had just finished the delivery, stood frozen in shock. 

The other medical ninjas had already fainted from the overwhelming pressure.

"Teacher, this child…" Rin whispered, wide-eyed.

The newborn girl was radiating a powerful chakra. It surged out of her body uncontrollably, shaking the room. 

Even Mikoto was struggling under the weight of her own daughter's chakra.

"Simu… don't…" Mikoto said weakly, worried.

Simu acted quickly and pulled Mikoto into his arms, shielding her. The chakra storm that would knock out others was nothing to him.

A child born with such monstrous chakra from the start…

Kushina rushed into the room.

"Kushina, help me seal this chakra," Simu said urgently.

The baby girl in his arms was crying, her chakra wildly out of control. At her age, she couldn't contain it herself. The only option was to seal it.

Kushina nodded without hesitation and began forming the seal.

With Simu beside her, she could use her chakra freely without worrying about the Nine Tails.

If the Nine Tails tried anything, Simu would handle it easily.

Golden chakra chains extended from Kushina and gently wrapped around the baby.

Slowly, the storm of chakra began to settle and withdraw back into the child's body.

A small, spiral-shaped seal appeared on her abdomen.

Kushina let out a sigh of relief.

Simu watched quietly, deep in thought. Then he sat beside Mikoto, holding the baby and gently wiping the sweat from her forehead.

"It's alright now," he said softly.

Mikoto's tired eyes stayed on her baby. Seeing that everything was fine, she nodded slightly and drifted into sleep.

Five days later, Simu returned home with his two wives and three children.

He named Lindy's son Kenma, and her daughter Hanyu Cindy.

The youngest, Mikoto's daughter, was named Hanyu Yamato.

In just two months, Simu had four children.

The house was now full of noise and chaos.

Only Lindy's two children, Kenma and Cindy, were relatively quiet.

Shinichi and Yamato, on the other hand, were incredibly loud and energetic.

Eventually, Simu had no choice but to escape to the Hokage's office for some peace.

Seeing his tired face, Minato laughed,

"Looking at you makes me scared to get married and have kids."

Simu collapsed into a chair, too exhausted to even reply.

It wasn't physical fatigue, it was mental exhaustion.

Shikaku chuckled,

"Women are trouble enough one at a time. But you married three at once. Who else but you would do that?"

Simu just waved his hand, letting out a long sigh.

"Let's not talk about that. What's the situation with the Freedom Fighters?"

The moment work was mentioned, Shikaku's expression turned serious.

"We're ready to launch an attack on the Daimyo's mansion anytime."

At this point, half a year had passed since Simu's children were born.

With the help of ninja tools developed by Simu, the Freedom Fighters had won battle after battle.

They completely overwhelmed the daimyo's forces.

Now, the only territory still under the daimyo's direct control was the capital of the Land of Fire.

"But…"

Minato hesitated, a trace of concern on his face.

"Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure just held the fourth Five Kage Summit a few days ago."

"The four villages reached a united front. They said if the Freedom Fighters continue attacking the Daimyo's mansion, they'll intervene."

Simu smirked.

"A bunch of clowns. Ignore them."

"Just keep the Freedom Fighters ready—and spread rumors around the Daimyo's mansion every day."

Shikaku didn't object to Simu's plan.

"The only problem is that the Freedom Fighters still lack top-tier combat power. If the other great powers get involved, they might struggle."

Hearing this, Simu patted his chest confidently.

"Don't worry. Leave the high-level fights to me."

Shikaku glanced at him, suspicious.

"You're not going to step in yourself?"

"If I move, the war will explode right away," Simu said, shaking his head.

"No need to act personally for just a Daimyo's mansion."

"That's a relief," Shikaku muttered.

Under Simu's command, all kinds of advanced weapons continued pouring out of Konoha, rapidly strengthening the Freedom Fighters.

Neither Konoha nor the Freedom Fighters publicly admitted to being allies…

But even a fool could tell They were clearly working as one.

After all, every time Konoha announced a new ninja tool, that same tool would appear in the hands of the Freedom Fighters just days later.

Most of the liberated areas were even managed by Konoha's own ninjas.

Saying the two groups weren't connected, nobody with a brain would believe that.

After two months of preparation, the Freedom Fighters had gathered their most advanced weapons and elite troops just ten kilometers from the Fire Nation's capital.

The entire city was in a state of panic.

Leading this mission was Simu's first disciple, Hatake Kakashi.

In the Freedom Fighters, he was known by his codename: Black Shinigami.

"Commander, the artillery unit is in position and ready to fire."

"The armored troops have reached their spot."

"Infantry is standing by."

Since they didn't have many actual ninjas, the Freedom Fighters fought differently from Konoha's traditional shinobi army.

Their main strategy was simple, use ninja tools for large-scale bombardment, then send in soldiers equipped with ninja gear to finish the job.

Obito stood beside the armored vehicles, eyes sparkling with excitement.

"So cool…"

He glanced at Kakashi giving out commands, a wave of envy rising in his chest.

If only I could lead an army like that…

The former mercenary, now known as the "Drought," Kakuzu, stood beside Kakashi.

Looking at the new equipment lined up before them, even he had to admit, in a direct battle, even someone like him might be torn apart by these armored units.

Kakashi's face was calm and cold.

After years of fighting, battles like this no longer excited him.

"Mask, take charge of the infantry. Once the armored units break through, lead the troops in right after."

Mask was Obito's codename.

"Got it," Obito said, already fired up by the thought of the coming clash.

Just the anticipation of the chaos made his blood boil.

"Mr. Drought," Kakashi continued, "I'll leave the armored units to you."

"Fine," Kakuzu replied with a cold grunt.

Even though the armored units were strong, their biggest weakness was their vulnerability to Earth Release techniques.

If they were hit by a powerful Earth Style attack, they could easily be stuck or disabled.

That's why they needed ninjas on standby to support them during battle.

"Begin the operation," Kakashi ordered calmly.

At his word, the entire Freedom Fighter force roared to life, a terrifying war machine charging toward the Fire Nation's capital.

Inside the palace, the daimyo of the Fire Nation sat pale-faced in the great hall, his hands trembling.

"Those damned rebels…"

daimyo's voice trembled as the paper fan in his hand cracked under pressure.

Below him, the officials were equally panicked.

Years of war had worn down their once-proud guardian ninja forces.

Only two or three thousand remained, nowhere near enough to stop this kind of invasion.

Of the once-legendary Twelve Guardian Ninjas, only three were still alive.

No matter how they looked at it, there was no hope of winning.

Suddenly, a thunderous boom echoed across the city, the artillery units had begun their assault.
