People are in Konoha, the start level is full

In the large tent, a thin middle-aged man wearing glasses was looking at the documents on his desk intently. Beside him was a young ninja holding several scrolls, softly explaining to him the key information on the documents. .

"Lord Menyan, there are a total of shurikens, kunai and other ninja tools allocated this time..."

At this time, a bold voice came from the entrance of the camp.

"I'm back!"

Mito Kadoyan adjusted his glasses and looked toward the entrance. When he saw the person coming, he couldn't help but smile.

"Jiraiya, you're back. How's the situation?"

The person who came in was none other than Jiraiya, the direct disciple of the Sandaime Hokage.

Since Danzo was transferred back to Konoha, the nominal commander on the front line has been replaced by Mito Monobu.

It's just that Mito Monobu is far from the original Danzo in terms of strength and skills.

The Sandaime also considered this situation and specially deployed his three direct disciples and the head of the Nara family who were good at strategy as assistants.

Some time ago, the war situation became much calmer.However, news came that Sunagakure Village had sent troops to capture a key city on the western border of Rain Country, so Mito Kadenen asked Jiraiya to investigate.

That place is also a strategic location. If it is captured by Sunagakure Village, it will threaten their Konoha Village's frontline station in Rain Country, and this is probably the purpose of Sunagakure Village.

But Sanshouyu Hanzo cannot just watch his country's cities being occupied, and there will definitely be a conflict between the two.

So, what is the situation there now?

Jiraiya, who walked into the camp, saw the expectation in Mito Kadoen's eyes, and said with a hearty smile: "Sansho Hanzo led his elite troops directly under him to attack Sunagakure's army, but he did not take advantage. .”

"Oh?"

"The person in charge of Sunagakure's side is Chiyo. She cracked Hanzo's poison, so Hanzo can only return without success this time." Jiraiya explained.

This news was obtained by him through the [Toad Hidden Technique] and taking the risk to sneak into Sunagakure's camp.

Mito Kadoyan calmed down and said with a smile: "In other words, we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."

"At present, this is indeed the case. The situation should be developing in a direction that is beneficial to us in Konoha." Jiraiya nodded, he also thought so.

"Don't be too happy."

These words came from outside the door, and immediately, a middle-aged man with pineapple hair walked in casually, with his hands behind his back.

This middle-aged man with a pineapple head is the head of the Nara family of this generation, and is also a frontline strategist in the Land of Rain. Mito Kadoyan usually relies heavily on his wisdom. When he heard that he had different opinions, he naturally conquered him. Asked: "Antlers, what do you think?"

Nara Shikaku looked at Mito Kadoen and Jiraiya, and said in a deep voice: "The situation is not as optimistic as you think. It is true that Hanzo is fighting with Sunagakure, but..."

At this point, his expression became serious: "But I'm afraid Sansho Hanzo is just trying it. Once he finds that he can't cause effective damage to Sunagakure, then he may make a truce with Sunagakure."

"Why?" Jiraiya scratched his head and asked stupidly.

He didn't understand how such a conclusion was reached.

It seems that there is no cause and effect relationship between before and after. Even if Sansho Hanzo's poison gas has no effect on Sunagakure, he can still let his army attack, and his own strength is no less than "Shadow", why should he give up just like that?

Nara Shikaku looked at the confused expressions on the two people in front of him and sighed.

"Sunagakure captures the city of Rain Country. If Sansho Hanzo doesn't respond, his prestige will definitely be damaged. You can understand this."

The two nodded.

"But does Hanzo really need to fight with Sunagakure? Think about it carefully, Sunagakure's troops occupied that area, and their target is actually our Konoha. It can be seen from the map that our Konoha will fall into The disadvantageous situation of being surrounded on three sides.”

He pointed to the sand table beside him and continued to explain:

"Sunagakure's advance was actually beneficial to Hanzo, but they occupied the territory of the Kingdom of Rain. Due to this, as the nominal guardian of the Kingdom of Rain, Hanzo had to express his will, so he Lead a small number of his elite subordinates to raid Sunagakure’s camp.”

"If Sunagakure can't even withstand such an attack, then it will be destroyed if it is destroyed. This may be Hanzo's idea. But if Sunagakure can withstand it, then Hanzo may reach a certain tacit understanding with them, temporarily truce, and join forces Deal with us Konoha first."

"I see."

Jiraiya suddenly realized: "By doing this, Hanzo also had an explanation for the inside of the Rain Country. It was not that he ignored Sunagakure's invasion, but his strength was limited and he failed to successfully destroy it. Besides, there are still Konoha and Iwagakure, He also has a reason to delay, and it makes perfect sense to deal with Konoha and Iwagakure who are also invaders first."

"Hearing what you said, it feels like the situation has suddenly turned bad."

Mito Monoyan also understood, and held his forehead with a headache, "What should we do? Shikaku, do you have any countermeasures?"

Seeing his eager gaze, Nara Shikaku was speechless.

"I knew the result would be like this..."

Ever since he was sent here to work with Mito Monument, Mito Monument was still a bit opinionated at first, but now, for some reason, it has gradually become that he Nara Shikakus has to make decisions on all trivial matters. .

"If you ask me to provide advice every day on every detail, I will definitely die of overwork in the end... But if you don't keep an eye on them, it's hard to make people feel at ease with these two idiots."

Nara Shikaku sighed, suddenly feeling extremely troubled.

……

"elder sister!"

As soon as Kuramayan and his party passed the review at the guard post and entered the camp, there was a call from beside them.

A child with childish white eyes ran over happily.

"Hayato?"

Hinata Yui turned her head and immediately recognized her brother.

Kurama Yan, on the other hand, noticed the handsome young man with brilliant blond hair among the teammates following him.

"Hey, Minato, long time no see." He raised his hand and greeted.

"Hiko-senpai." Namikaze Minato came over and smiled when he saw the senior who had helped him.

"When did you come here?"

Seeing that the Byakugan siblings had a lot to say, Kuramayan casually started chatting with Namikaze Minato.

"Just a few days ago, Mr. Jiraiya sent a letter back to Konoha, saying that he wanted us to come over and have a closer look. But since we came here, we haven't seen Mr. Jiraiya. It seems that he went out to implement some secret. Mission accomplished.”

Namikaze Minato scratched his hair, looking a little troubled.

"Then you guys should have a lot of free time these days."

"You can't say it's okay. We also need to take on part of the patrol and garrison tasks."

"correct."

Kurama Yan seemed to remember something and suddenly asked: "Is Mr. Orochimaru in the camp?"
