Chapter 181 [181] Action

The land of rain.

Konoha frontline camp.

"Swish, swish."

The sound of notes being scratched on paper sounded from the self-operated account. Both sides of the long table were filled with logistical support staff responsible for material dispatch and equipment calculation. They compared the news from various ministries and filled in the appropriate numbers one by one.

on the scheduling document.

When everything is filled out, the document is immediately handed over to the next person, and they start a new calculation.

Perhaps in the era of the first Hokage, personal strength and collision can determine the change and ownership of a country and a ninja village.

However, when the ninja world entered a new chapter, the power of ninjas began to be institutionalized and taught to ordinary people on a large scale, and after the ninja world no longer had strong men such as Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara left in the world, the world's

War no longer belongs to individuals, but becomes a collision between collectives.

For a ninja war that could affect thousands or even tens of thousands of people, ninja tools and supplies, shurikens and ration pills, became the top priority.

Jonin, in a ninja village, has always been a minority among the minority.

Chuunin and genin who use kunai, shuriken, and detonating charms as their main means of combat. Those who are like cannon fodder in any logistics statistics book are often the main body of the 'war'.

As the frontline commander, Hatake Sakumo sat in front of the long table, quietly looking at the material statistics book in his hand, rubbing his eyebrows with a headache.

This conflict was different from the 'face-to-face collision' with Amegakure. No matter Konoha or Sunagakure, the moment the war was announced, no one thought about solving the opponent's opponent with countless flesh and blood in a short time.

Fuel, the rumbling behemoth.

Therefore, Hatake Sakumo naturally did not maintain 24-hour high-intensity contact with various ministries as before, and always be prepared for Sunagakure's "full army attack".

However, as one of the few taijutsu-type jounin in Konoha, Hatake Sakumo actually misses the thrill of fighting Sansho Hanzo, the white knife going in and the red knife coming out.

At least he doesn't have to rush the rear to deliver supplies to the front every day, and he always reminds the spendthrifts in each department to save the detonating charms.

All wartime supplies were provided by the village.

For the middle genin who must prepare their own ninja tools when carrying out missions, and are always thinking about whether they can get back their money on this mission, there is no psychological burden at all to spend money in the village. During the fight, they throw all kinds of shurikens and detonating charms.

It's the same as splashing water, and it's more pleasant than peeing your pants.

For example, right now, he is so angry that he wants to curse.

"What?!"

Hatake Sakumo grabbed a piece of paperwork, raised his head and asked the clerk next to him, his eyes widened: "Didn't two boxes of detonating charms just arrive yesterday? Why do we need them again today?"

"His Mimura Yemaki won't be able to consume it so quickly even if he takes military food pills!"

"Let him come and get it himself!"

"You let him come over!"

Hatake Sakumo clenched his fists and the letter was crumpled.

If Mimura Yeju was in front of him, White Fang would really punch him.

God knows how much nonsense it took to push the 'good-natured' Lord White Fang to this point.

The clerk thought secretly in his heart.

As a result, Hatake Sakumo was angry when he saw the camp door curtain suddenly opened. Nara Shikaku with a serious face quickly walked to Hatake Sakumo, lowered his head and whispered a few words to him, and then handed a secret letter to him.

Pass it over.

However, before Shikaku handed the letter to him, he saw veins bulging on Hatake Sakumo's forehead and his blood pressure rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What did you say?!"

Everyone present felt their eardrums vibrating and their scalps a little numb.

Nara Shikaku, who was the closest, was undoubtedly the most unlucky. While scanning everyone around him, he quickly reminded in a low voice: "Hatake-sama, keep it secret! Keep it secret!"

"Aida. He is acting without authorization!!"

Hatake Sakumo's eyes were wide open, his teeth were almost broken, and he said bitterly: "Acting without authorization! Do you understand?"

"I'm going to court in Konoha!"

Just looking at that red face and thick neck, how can he still have the elegant appearance of a humble gentleman?

cruel battlefield,

strong opponent,

and teammates who are offline.

When these three things come together, they can really drive a good-tempered person crazy.

It's simply adding fuel to the fire.

However, Nara Shikaku beside him was also a little helpless: "It seems that he has already started taking action anyway, and we only received the news later."

After taking a few deep breaths, Hatake Sakumo managed to suppress the anger in his heart.

However, the tense brows still showed a distinct "well" character, and when he pressed the back of his hand on the table, a clear outline of blood vessels emerged.

After a long time, Hatake Sakumo gritted his teeth and said:

"go."

"To the village. No."

As if he finally got over it, Hatake Sakumo thought calmly: "Suppress this news first, don't report it to the top."

"Wait until he comes back and then report to the village. Just say that the plan was proposed by Jiang Hui and has my permission. It is not an unauthorized action."

"no matter what the result is."

"I'm in charge."

Hearing this, Nara Shikaku first took a deep look at the middle-aged man with silver hair in front of him, and then whispered:

"yes."

It was obvious that both Hatake Sakumo and Nara Shikaku realized why Aida Masaki had to kill first and then show off, and they were so wary of the village.

And they also don't mind going along with the flow and helping.

However, Nara Shikaku did not expect that Hatake Sakumo would take the extremely dangerous blame of 'acting without reporting on the battlefield' on himself - for a man who might become the Fourth Hokage at any time

For a ninja, this is undoubtedly unwise and may have huge negative consequences.

However, considering his status as "both a teacher and a brother" to Aida Masaki, all this seems to be a matter of course.

A person's human touch is often difficult to express between the lines.

People only look at what he does.

There is no doubt that people like Hatake Sakumo are worthy of anyone to follow.

"."

"damn it."

Before Nara Shikaku walked out of the camp, he heard another hateful scolding coming from behind.

Pineapple Head laughed secretly and walked out of the tent quickly.

Border of the Kingdom of Wind, Green Lake City.

As the last large oasis and water point between the two countries, Green Lake City is already on high alert.

Less than fifty kilometers northeast of here is the rainforest valley where Aida Masaki is responsible for deploying defenses.

At this moment, all civilians and businessmen in this city have been strictly prohibited from entering or exiting. At a glance, in the streets and alleys of the entire khaki city, only the Sunagakure ninjas are moving quickly.

Some of them guided the camel carts of supplies into the city, some shouted and asked for the transportation of the injured, and some of them leaped from rooftop to rooftop like apes, patrolling every corner of the city in a highly alert manner.

.

It seems that the city is being run as an iron wall.

Between the windows and doors, you can vaguely catch a glimpse of the cautious and frightened eyes of the locals.

You know, not every country's residents dare to shout at the Konoha ninjas like the people from the Land of Fire.

However, these preparations are indeed necessary.

Ninjas, especially the Paul Dozen Ninja Clan and the Konoha Ninjas who have various incredible ninjutsu, their infiltration and detection methods are difficult to detect in most cases.

There have even been more than one incident in the past where Konoha ninjas sneaked into the Kazekage Building and stuck themselves outside the wall to eavesdrop on the Sunagakure Jonin Conference.

Therefore, it is natural to be careful.

Especially at this time when war plans are being negotiated.

In the conference room, the Third Kazekage Kurosawa had reached the end of his speech.

He picked up the water glass from the table and took a sip, then glanced at the many Sunagakure ninjas present and asked: "This is the first wave of battle plans. Does anyone else have any questions?"

Those present were all professional commanders or powerful elite ninjas, so there was no need for him to repeat himself a second time.

After a while of silence, Kurosawa ordered:

"Then let's get ready."

"yes."

The Sunagakure ninjas responded in unison and left the venue in an orderly manner.

Among a group of tall and strong adult Sunagakure jounin, the fifteen-year-old Xia was as skinny as a bean sprout, so he stood out very much.

However, no one among the people present dared to underestimate him.

A month and a half ago, the news that Lord Kazekage led a team on a mission, but was severely defeated by Aida Masaki's team, as well as the details of the war, had already been sent back to Sunagakure Village.

Kurosawa can become the Third Kazekage, and his strength is naturally well known. No one in the village dares to laugh at him. Because if even he, as the Kazekage, cannot defeat Aida Masaki, then no one in the whole village can.

While everyone in Sunagakure was secretly surprised that "Konoha actually has many young ninjas who are proficient in Hakkake and can defeat the Kazekage-sama", the few bright spots in the battle, "Scorpion", were naturally also noticed.

Sunagakure Village was used to promote the village to cover up Kurosawa's ugliness.

In these nearly two years of missions, battles, and wars, there is no need for anyone to explain Aida Masaki's strength.

Even for many enemy ninjas, Aida Masaki has begun to become the person they need to call 'sir'.

In the ninja world, this is an honor that only those who are recognized as having the strength of the "Kage" level are qualified to receive.

His hero is my enemy.

But if this enemy is a bit too strong, then everyone will understand.

At such a young age, Xie was actually able to escape with his life from Aida Masaki, and even barely managed to protect several of his companions without being wiped out - this kind of achievement, others would not have the confidence to achieve.

At the same time, he was also given the name "Red Sand" by that Lord during this war.

It is conceivable that in the near future, the name "Red Sand Scorpion" will definitely be heard in the ninja world.

not to mention.

While thinking, many people's eyes turned to the pale wooden strap around his waist.

He also has a Zanpakutō now.

Scorpion himself, on the other hand, turned a deaf ear to the looks of others and walked outside while thinking about the battle plan Kurosawa had just told them.

The attack plan for this first wave is relatively simple.

First, the third and fourth armies were mobilized to conduct a tentative attack on Konoha's front line, making preparations for an attack. Then, under the guidance of Sunagakure's mole placed on Konoha's front line, Aida Shouki's troops were mobilized to enter the ambush circle. Finally,

The elite Zanpakutō team led by Lord Kazekage personally encircled and suppressed him.

The whole plan is quite straightforward, and it is completely centered around the person "Masaki Aida".

Of course, Kurosawa, as the Third Kazekage, naturally has no selfish motives.

The reason for doing this had nothing to do with Aida Masaki smearing his face, it was simply because the unit this boy was in happened to be stuck in the middle of the route of the Sunagakure Village logistics troops.

As long as you rush out of the rainforest at the right time, you can directly cut off the supplies of Sunagakure troops.

He belongs to the type that is not harmful but also disgusting.

However, the defensive area where these Konoha ninjas are located happens to be a rainforest area with deep valleys and dense forests. Even if three times the number of troops is sent out, these troops cannot be surrounded. The level of torture is comparable to a security war.

That’s why Kurosawa went out of his way to hold a grudge!

Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, Kazekage asked Scorpion to guard another front line this time and direct the Sunagakure ninja's feint attack.

Galliu is not included in this list either.

Obviously, the last exposure of the route made the Kazekage become vigilant.

'We need to send the news back to Aida-sama as soon as possible.'

Scorpio thought so in his heart.

However, not long after he walked out of the conference room, he was blocked by a man.

Luo Sha crossed her arms and leaned against the wall of the corridor. She smiled sarcastically, turned to look at him, and said softly:

"I heard that you were not part of this mission?"

". Red sand, scorpion?"

He specially emphasized the tone on the previous noun.

Because they are both geniuses, Luo Sha understands how destructive this kind of title is to Scorpion, which is "given" by others and obtained only by struggling to survive.

It was a kind of humiliation, a shame that will be engraved in my memory for a lifetime.

Just like he had his beloved girlfriend taken away by a half-grown boy.

Stinging and burning.

As expected, Xie immediately stopped, turned his head, and looked at him coldly.

Seemingly noticing the pale wooden punch carried on Luo Sha's waist, Xie said sarcastically in a flat voice: "Have you finally managed to master the method of releasing Shijie after a month?"

"A guy with slow observation skills can't even keep up with his mobility."

"However, after you have just achieved some results, you come here to show off to me non-stop. Isn't it childish and ridiculous?"

"If you want to compete that way, how about competing with Mr. Kurosawa's youngest son to see who is better at sucking breasts?"

"You might be able to win a very beautiful victory in one go."

"Luo Sha."

"scorpion--!!!"

It has to be said that if those guys who are usually taciturn and indifferent to everything that happens around them really want to speak venomously, they might be able to make the three zombie gods jump in anger.

A cute little mouth, but the inside is black when cut open.

Needless to say, Luo Sha, who was stabbed in the foot, was so angry that her eyes were red.

What does ‘retarded observation’ mean? Is there any need to say more?

It's a pity that even though Xie was so excited, Luo Sha just squinted her eyes and stared at him, as if she wanted to write down every detail about him.

But nothing moved under his hand.

For a highly integrated military group, the most stringent discipline requirements are during war.

Even with Luo Sha's identity and status, if he dared to attack Xie here, he would inevitably be punished severely. If the matter was serious, Feng Ying would even be forced to tear down his disciples.

Therefore, he cannot make any mistakes.

"On the battlefield, watch your back."

Luo Sha said a harsh word in an anticlimax, and slowly walked out of the corridor with a dead face.

"Tsk."

Xie cut his tongue and narrowed his eyes slightly.

However, just as he turned around to leave in another direction, he saw Garuro standing a little further away.

Seeing his eyes looking over, he seemed to have made up his mind and asked:

".scorpion."

"You, are you on this mission with the teacher?"

Hearing this, Xie was slightly startled.

Logically speaking, the content of the mission should not be disclosed to others, but based on their relationship and status, Xia did not take the request too seriously. He only thought that Garuro was worried that he and Luo Sha would have a conflict during the mission, so he comforted her.

road:

"Anxin, my task is to be responsible for the feint attack."

"Yes, really?"

Hearing this, Garuro seemed to feel his heart fall back into his stomach, and he breathed a long sigh of relief:

"That's good."

"Is there a problem?"

"there is none left."

Seeing Garuro leaving quickly, Xie frowned inadvertently.

Ever since she came back from her last mission, she has been acting a little strange.

'Is it because of that mission?'

Thinking of this, Scorpion's long white knuckles clenched and unclenched unconsciously.

Human nature is always the biggest variable.

The next day.

The Land of Rain, Konoha's Defense Line.

Namikaze Minato led his team, leaping and moving quickly among the trees.

The 'defense line' formed by ninjas is completely different from the battlefield defense lines in public perception, that is, trenches and fortresses.

As a squishy profession with high mobility and high lethality, whether you are on the defensive side or on the offensive side, you must always be in motion and search for these two behaviors during the entire process of executing a task.

Just a team of four like Minato Namikaze can patrol the entire rainforest area of ​​nearly five square kilometers in a short time of one or two minutes - this is their defensive area.

At the same time, as an extremely important sentient ninja and one of the very few ninjas with the ability to transfer space within the entire battlefield, Minato Namikaze is also the frontline commander of the entire brigade.

Each team member of this team carries a trident kunai that is unique to him.

This ensures that he can arrive at any fighting point in time.

"Um?"

Suddenly, the team members beside him heard Minato frown slightly, and his footsteps suddenly stopped on a branch.

Press your fingertips on the ground.

Namikaze Minato closed his eyes tightly, carefully feeling the changes in chakra, with a serious expression:

"coming."

He opened his eyes and ordered: "Notice, level one alert!"

"yes!"

Accompanied by Namikaze Minato's command, a red firework shot straight into the sky.

It exploded with a bang.

Almost at the same moment.

Yamanaka Sataku strode to Aida Masaki's side, and under the dull gazes of Yueguang Shoichi and Hinata Kon, he handed over a liaison document with both hands.

The undercover gentleman had a serious expression and a serious voice:

"Lord Aida!"

"There is news from the Hyuga ninjas of the third team on the front line."

"An unknown Sunagakure squadron followed the underground tunnel on the other side of the mountain and sneaked into the valley behind our defense line!"

"According to reports from the front line, it may be explosive materials."

"boom--"

The red fireworks exploding in the sky seemed to be the perfect footnote for his information.

There was no trace of false smile on Shan Zhongjue's handsome face.

He really listened to Aida Masaki's words.

"Oh, is it so?"

Aida Masaki's eyes suddenly turned away from the red fireworks, and looked back towards Yamazaka against the red background.

Showing a warm and genial smile.

He smiled sincerely.

I felt a sudden chill behind me in the mountain.

Still two in one~!

I finished writing it in the evening, but I felt that no one would read it if I posted it early in the morning, so I decided to post it at nine in the morning.

Continue to visit the talent market this afternoon!

But it’s so hard to find a job this season, I’m sorry.
