Naruto

"This is the message from the northern defense line, you all have a look."

In the small Hokage office in the Hokage Building, Konoha's famous high-level executives are all gathered here.

Three generations of Hokage handed a report to the person next to him, biting a pipe while saying: "It has been confirmed that the leader of Sand Ninja this time is Chiyo's grandson, Dark Earth Spider (Cloud). What do you think? ?”

"You're young, you're capable."

Turning to bed Xiaochun narrowed his eyes and said lightly.She is nearly half a hundred years old, and she is gradually showing her age, but compared with those younger generations, the generation in her 40s is at the peak of experience and strength, and is the most important battle for the whole Konoha. component of force.

"There is no time to praise the enemy now. If we don't come up with countermeasures as soon as possible, we will lose control of the northern part of the Fire Country."

Mitomon Yan didn't read that report. Since it was sent over, it had been carefully studied by Hokage and the advisory group. Now it's just to let the younger generation participate in the decision-making center of the village and let them learn experience. .

"Where's Jiraiya and Orochimaru? They're fighting Sand Ninja in the west, so how come there's no news coming back."

Tsunade, who is also one of the Sannin, stayed in the village because he was only a medical ninja and did not fight.Considering her identity as the granddaughter of the first generation of Hokage and her medical strength, her status in this office can almost be said to be the leader among the younger generation.

"Yes, there was indeed a report sent not long ago, which only stated that the Sand Ninja sent an army of about 3000 people to move towards the Kingdom of Wind, and there was no news after that."

The Third Hokage took a puff of his cigarette and said calmly.

"3000 people? But this report only says that there are 2000 sand ninjas, so where are the other 1000?"

Kato, who had just confirmed his relationship with Tsunade, immediately discovered the abnormality in the report.

"That's right, we estimate that these 1000 people may have been scattered into the Land of Fire."

Mito said with a stern face.

This is not good news, 1000 people is not a small number, and the damage caused by scattering into the Land of Fire will not be that small. In addition, the target is small, without special tracking technology, it is impossible to catch these people slippery guy.

"Another intelligence was sent from the Western Front an hour ago."

The third generation pointed to a document on the desk and said: "The urgent information jointly sent by Jiraiya and Orochimaru, the entire Sand Ninja army suppressed it."

"Jiraiya and Orochimaru only have 4000 people in their hands, and the opposing sand ninja also happens to have [-] people, which is evenly matched. No matter whether sand ninja is a fake attack or a real one, we can't expect the western front to give us more battles. Help us deal with the mess up north."

The faces of the two members of the advisory group were not very good. The restoration and reconstruction work in the north had just started, and now it seemed that they had just done useless work.

"How many people are available in our village now?"

Konoha Shirato, who was staying in the village, took the report from Kato San and asked while reading it.

"Not much. The defense line in the east cannot be moved now, and we can barely mobilize about 1000 people in the south. We have a few old guys guarding the village, and we can mobilize about 6 people. And we have already sent to the reconstruction troops The order to return to the village was issued, and [-] people can be gathered in a short period of time, and other people are still coming. But we have no way to contact the north. It may be the reason for the interference of sand ninja. The news from the north is intermittent , the visual information was intercepted halfway.”

Mito Menyan recounted the current situation.

"In other words, there are only 2000 people who can be dispatched immediately?"

Konoha Shirato thinks that this number is really low, there are 2000 people in Sand Ninja on the surface, not to mention the 1000 people who disappeared.If they are restrained by the 2000 people on the surface, the damage that the remaining 1000 people can cause is unacceptable to the Nation of Fire.

"Yes," Zhuanzhu Xiaochun took over the conversation and said, "And it was only in the afternoon that so many people could gather."

Everyone knows the truth that soldiers are precious and fast. Now that there is an extra minute of delay, it is unknown how many Konoha ninjas in the north have been killed.But the troops in hand haven't been assembled yet, is it necessary for a single soldier to rush up and be bitten to death by the opponent's ants?

"Understood," Konoha Baiya thought for a moment, and then suggested, "No matter how many people have gathered at present, I will take them away immediately. I can still receive troops from the north on the way. Even if I can't beat the sand ninja, I must at least hold them back to buy us time."

"Ah."

Sandai and the advisory group nodded, expressing their agreement with Sakumo Hatake's opinion, and signaled him to continue.

"There is also the need to bring back the two generations of Ikabuta. Their group mode is most suitable for dealing with the scattered 1000 people. By the way, the white eyes of the Hyuga family, the tracking of the Inuzuka family, and the insect art of the oil girl family will all come to support. Regardless of whether it is the opponent's large or small force, we must try our best to get as much information as possible."

Among the mainstays of Konoha, Sannin and Konoha Baiga are famous. Compared with Sannin's reputation bestowed by Hanzo, Hatake Sakumo's reputation was built by himself, and he is more experienced than Sannin.

"Also, I want to activate Tsunade's medical class."

"But the medical team is not mature at all, and some medical ninjas haven't even mastered the most basic knowledge."

Tsunade, who is currently the head of the Konoha Medical Corps, spoke immediately.Although she proposed to add at least one medical ninja to each team, the training of a medical ninja is not that simple. Even if she works hard for so long, Konoha has only a hundred mature medical ninjas who can go to the battlefield. The number is seriously insufficient.

"There is no way, Konoha is seriously short of people now, we must ensure that there will be no more unnecessary deaths."

Tsunade's original suggestion had to be shelved because he didn't have the manpower, material resources and time, but everyone knew that Tsunade's suggestion was correct. Adding a medical ninja to each team could indeed increase the team's survival rate.But now it is a time of war, and there is no time, material and manpower to train medical ninjas. This is also the root cause of Konoha's high-level rejection of Tsunade's opinions.

"I hope you can go to the battlefield together, Tsunade."

Tsunade's medical ability is obvious to all. With her, many people will definitely survive.

"understood."

Knowing the seriousness of the current situation, Tsunade didn't say anything more.

"Then it's decided."

Third Hokage took down the pipe he was biting, and assigned a task: "At present, only a thousand people are gathered, Sakumo, you lead the team, as you said, go to the north to stop the enemy first."

"Hi."

"Tsunade, you go to organize a medical team immediately. You are still in charge of logistics supplies, remember to cooperate with Tsunade, and when the second group of personnel is assembled, you will support them."

"Hi." x2

How do you say that, men and women are not tired of working together, knowing the relationship between their apprentices and boyfriends, the three generations don't want to be villains who can beat mandarin ducks, let their little lovers who are still in their sweet period get along with each other . (No mistake, my roommate of the author has fallen into a sweet period of love in the past few days. He used to be a lazy man, but now he has the nourishment of love. From three to five, he spends the whole day with his girlfriend except for sleeping. Damn, isn’t this stimulating me to have no gay friends?)

—————————— Occasionally it is the dividing line—————————

No matter how Konoha's decision is made, as far as the current situation is concerned, it has not played a role in interfering with Sand Shinobi.

Yun didn't know what he was paying attention to. After completely disrupting Konoha's northern defense line, he directly swung his army southward, regardless of the important towns of the Kingdom of Fire along the way, and went straight to Konoha.Just when everyone was surprised to think that Yun wanted to raid Muye Village, Yun stopped at a place tens of kilometers away from Muye Village, and then divided the army into two and moved to the left and right.

This is the same as the upside-down "Ding", the sand ninja troops moving left and right seem to be blocking Konoha's broken army from moving towards the village.

Such a provocation is simply telling everyone that their part of the sand ninja is going to swallow the entire northern part of the country of fire in one gulp.

The fire country daimyo who has not expressed his opinion much has therefore put pressure on the third generation of Hokage. Still, ninjas from other countries are so arrogant and unscrupulous in this country. He, Hokage, must give an explanation.

So, in the winter that was deserted in previous years, this year it was particularly lively.

◇

Not long after the sand ninja troops separated, Hatake Sakumo led a 1000-strong army up.

But the current situation is not very biased towards Konoha.Even if Sand Ninja is divided, there are 1000 people in each part. No matter which part is attacked, it is impossible to end the battle immediately. During the time of the battle, there are enough 1000 people from the other part of the enemy to surround them. of 1000 people.

As far as the number of people is concerned, Konoha has no advantage at all.Although Sakumo Hatake is confident that he can pick the ninja alone, but the ants kill the elephant too much, especially the opponent is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

In addition, Sand Shinobi began to move northward in a carpet-like manner after separation, just like sweeping with a broom. As long as the Konoha team is not very strong, it will be swallowed up in an instant, and those important towns will be merciless Destroy it on the spot, loot the materials inside if you can, and destroy them if you can't.

Stopping and stopping like this, Sand Shinobi couldn't get up to speed at all, and was eventually caught up by Hatake Sakumo, who came later.

◇

Confrontation, the confrontation between the two parties.

Here is just a small plain, with a few leaves-less trees dotted on the tawny grass that has withered in winter.

The sand ninja who was still moving north was chased by the Konoha troops who arrived later, and had to stop to prepare for this sudden battle.

Sand Shinobi didn't want to fight, as long as he was bitten by this Konoha army, he would probably be entangled until the Konoha reinforcements arrived.This is completely inconsistent with Sand Shinobi's current course of action.But there is no way at all, further north is a large forest, playing a chase in the forest, the sand ninja will definitely not be Konoha's opponent, so he can only fight Konoha's army here before entering the forest. kill.

And in the same way, although Konoha was chasing him, he didn't want to fight.The huge gap in numbers and the uneven strength of his own troops made Hatake Sakumo, the leader of the team, not sure at all. If there was a real fight, Konoha's chances of winning were almost equal to Tsunade's probability of winning with money.

"Huh? Who leads this sand ninja?"

Obviously, they have been confronting each other for more than half an hour, but let alone the leader on the opposite side, they haven't even seen a single acquaintance, let alone the leader who came out to command the troops.Is this team just an ordinary thousand-man brigade?

Hatake Sakumo pondered whether to continue the confrontation and wait for his own follow-up troops to arrive, or to test the strength of this sand ninja army first, and perhaps force the opponent's leader out.

"Ok?"

After another incense stick of time passed, Hatake Sakumo finally saw a commotion among the sand ninja troops, and a little bun who looked no older than ten years old walked out from the crowd.

"Who is Konoha leading the team, can you come out and see?"

The Lord is here~

Comparing the known information, the little bun in front of him is probably Chiyo's grandson, Yun who is known as the spider of the dark soil.
