Chapter 40: Enemy Attack

"Shuo Mao asked for more manpower, what do you think?"

In the conference room in the Hokage Building, the third generation of Hokage Ape Tobi mentioned Shuo Shige's request for additional manpower.

"With his strength, isn't it enough to deal with the lurking enemies in the Fire Nation?"

The advisor turned to Koharu frowned, obviously not very satisfied with Shuo Mao's request for additional manpower.

"The opponents are two elite upper ninjas in the Sand Hidden Puppet Army, and there are three other upper ninjas in the team, one of whom will use a wide range of earth escape techniques."

"But there is no direct evidence that it is a ninja from Iwain Village."

Koharu said.

Hizai shook the pipe in his hand and said, "I don't think that Onoki will do nothing at this time, and I can't make a conclusion on this matter just because there is no mission change in Iwakuin Village. ”

"According to what you say, Yun Yin and Wu Yin are also seriously suspicious."

Advisor Mito Menyan glanced at Hizai.

"So when the three generations of Kazekage left, I was in charge of the village, just to prevent other villages from intervening and making the battlefield even more chaotic."

"So what are you going to do? We can't believe the Uchiha garrison, Danzou is leading the roots at this time, carrying out secret missions, and he is not in the village. Staying in the village with two detachments of shadows was already an extremely risky thing for us. ”

Men Yan's eyes revealed the meaning of inquiry.

"Menyan is right, no matter how much crisis there was in the past, he would stay in the dark part of the three detachments. Now leaving only two detachments in the dark is itself gambling. ”

Koharu also has little trust in the Uchiha.

"The Uchiha are also a member of Konoha, we shouldn't be prejudiced against them, that's the clan of Kagami."

Hizai continued to spit out a smoke ring, his face solemn.

Leaving the work of the garrison in the hands of the Uchiha clan was arranged by his late teacher, the second Hokage Senju.

There are many reasons for this, on the one hand, out of jealousy, and on the other hand, the desire to limit the power of the Uchiha to the garrison.

Because of the work of the garrison, only the Uchiha clan is capable of doing this.

The work of the Uchiha garrison is remarkable, although there are indeed some people with abnormal brains who like to cause trouble, but there are also some Uchiha ninjas who really want to maintain the internal security of Konoha.

Hizai felt that he couldn't beat everyone to death with a stick.

Besides, his teacher also wanted to completely integrate the Uchiha clan into Konoha instead of excluding them.

It's a pity that the First Ninja World War broke out at that time, and his teacher died on the battlefield, which caused the Uchiha's affairs to go down.

Over the years, everyone can only dry up.

With the efforts of him, the Hokage, the relationship did ease somewhat, but there was not much substantive progress.

"Mirror is mirror, Uchiha is Uchiha, they are different levels of existence. Among the Uchiha, there are not a few Uchiha ninjas who inherit the radical ideas of Madara Uchiha. People of this group are all potentially dangerous. ”

At the end of the day, the advisors don't believe in the Uchiha, or rather, they don't believe in the Uchiha ninja who has the power of the curse and awakens the eyes of the chakra.

"Then make a compromise, and then divide the dark part of the two squads, only by getting rid of the rats in the land of fire, Shuomao can go to the battlefield and counterattack the sand hide."

"But ......"

"If there is anything unusual in the Uchiha, I will personally intervene to solve the chaos, so that you can rest assured."

There was a powerful momentum that could not be offended, and even Menyan and Koharu felt an unprecedented oppressive force.

This also tells Menyan and Koharu in disguise that with him as the Hokage, no matter what Uchiha does, he will stay on the turf honestly, doing the work that the garrison should do, and there will never be any problems.

This kind of self-confidence from the bones is deeply written on the face of the Japanese slash.

"Since you said so, then you have to do so."

"The Uchiha must not be careless in their affairs, they are naturally evil, and they must always be on guard."

In the end, Menyan and Koharu still reminded Hichiha to put aside the question against the Uchiha for the time being.

"In addition, the supplies sent to the front line in the village are insufficient, and Koharu and I need to go to the Daimyo's Mansion to discuss with the Daimyo and collect supplies there."

Menyan and Koharu glanced at each other, and Menyan spoke.

"Running out of supplies?"

The action of slashing a cigarette is a meal.

"Yes, the medical supplies are the most lacking, but the food pills and forbearance equipment are enough."

"Go early and come back early."

Any ninja leaving the village needs the Hokage's handwriting, even if it is an advisor, he must get the Hokage's handwriting before he can leave the village, otherwise he will not follow the rules, and if it is serious, it can be regarded as a rebellion.

Menyan and Koharu got a handwritten letter from Hizai that they could leave the village, and left the conference room.

β—Ž

An outpost in northern Konoha where about twenty Konoha ninjas are guarded and can be used as a temporary supply depot for the Shuo Mao team.

Fortunately, there is a simple infirmary in this sentinel site.

Shiraishi carried the seriously injured Konoha ninja he had found in another sentinel and entered the new sentinel infirmary to rest.

Although he still looks like he hasn't woken up, he has been out of danger, and he is fortunate in misfortune.

Ruri and Ayane negotiate with the Konoha ninjas at the outpost there, and getting supplies, food, water, and medical supplies is a top priority.

It didn't take long for Shiraishi and the others to get ready.

Sakumo put away the scroll in his hand and said, "There is good news, Hokage-sama has agreed to send additional reinforcements, and he is an expert in reconnaissance. But we can't relax here, now that we're restocked, let's go straight away. ”

"Yes!"

The three of them answered, and followed Shuo Mao to act again.

They are currently in the southern and central region of the Fire Country, and the next route they will follow is to set off to the east of the Fire Country.

It is located next to the neighboring country of Yunokuni, and it is a country famous for its hot springs.

If it wasn't during the war, you could have gone there and enjoyed it, but for now, it's still the task.

I patrolled for two days in a row, but I didn't notice anything abnormal, not even the shadow of the Sand Hidden Ninja.

However, considering that this is the hinterland of the Fire Country, the Sand Hidden Ninja should not be stupid enough to wreak havoc here, and of course, with the mentality of what if, the serious Shuo Mao will not let go of a region.

On the third day, when the supplies in the backpack were gone, he went to the nearest Konoha outpost to make new supplies.

"It's amazing that you came out on such a dangerous mission with Sakumo Shangnin at such a young age."

The captain in this outpost is a well-known shinobi of Konoha, a mature man in his thirties, who let out this sigh when he saw the immature faces of the three Shiraishi.

"In fact, our help is very small, and many times we need to be taken care of by Mr. Shuomao."

Shiraishi maintains a modest attitude.

"I know the character of Sakumo Shangshinobi, and if you don't get his approval, he will never go against his principles and bring you on such a dangerous mission. In other words, your strength has made him recognize. He is such a man who cherishes his companions. ”

This Konoha Shinobi said as if he remembered something.

"Do you know Mr. Shuo Mao?"

"We used to go on missions together, and at that time, he looked cold, but in fact he was a very gentle person, and he was easily shy. To the enemy, he is a cold-blooded and ruthless Konoha White Fang, and to his own people, he is a companion worthy of entrusting his back. ”

"It turns out that Mr. Shuomao used to be such a person, I can't see it."

Maybe I've grown a lot over the years, so I can't see the shy side of Shuo Mao.

The three of Shiraishi could only guess like this.

"Tianzhu, what strange thing are you instilling in my students?"

Shuo Mao walked over at this time.

"It's just a story about some of the ninja experiences of my predecessors." Amatake Shangnin said.

"By the way, this guy is a pervert."

Shuo Mao said this coldly.

Ruri and Ayane instantly glanced at Shinobu Amagi vigilantly and stepped back.

"Hey!"

Tianzhu's face was flushed.

"β€”especially for men."

Shiraishi saw that Tianzhu Shinobu was closest to him, and the smile on his face stiffened.

Ruri and Ayane breathed a sigh of relief, then it would be fine.

At this moment, from another dense grass at the outpost, a Konoha ninja suddenly ran out with blood all over his body, and within a few steps, he was seriously injured and fell.

"Be careful, there's ...... Enemy ......"
