Chapter 112: Keep the Enemy Out of the Country (Subscription Request)
Familiar conference room, familiar people. When Jiu Xing sat here again, the atmosphere here was even more solemn than the last time he came to this conference room.
What was different from the last time was that this time a huge map of the Ninja World was placed on the conference table in the middle.
"Now the three nations of Feng, Tu, Lei are declaring war on us."
"I won't say any more."
"Just one request."
Sarutobi Hiruzen swept the entire audience with his cold eyes. At this moment, even Tsunade and Jiu Xing, who were the most jumpy, did not say much.
"We must not let these guys set foot in the Fire Nation."
"Keep the enemy out of the country!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke in a decisive tone.
Then, Sarutobi Hiruzen pointed to the Grass Country between the Fire Country and the Earth Country and said:
"Orochimaru and Jiraiya will lead three thousand men to face Yellow Earth in the Land of Grass."
The Land of Earth has the largest number of ninjas, and they are extremely good at joint ninjutsu. It can be said that this is the toughest nut to crack.
Leave the task to Orochimaru, the most outstanding of the three ninjas, and with the assistance of Jiraiya, I believe there will be no problem in holding the opponent in the Land of Grass.
Sarutobi Hiruzen then pointed to the Frost Country between the Fire Country and the Lightning Country and said:
"Sakumo, take two thousand ninjas with you. I'll leave the Land of Lightning to you. Let's see whether your sword is sharper or their Thunder God armor is harder."
"Yes."
Hatake Sakumo nodded slightly, his dark eyes full of confidence at this moment.
"As for the Kingdom of Wind, I'll leave it to you. Tsunade, you and Kaoru go together."
The puppet troops of the Wind Country are best at using poison, and Tsunade happens to be a master in the medical field, making her the most suitable person to deal with such enemies.
As for Kaoru, Tsunade was there to help her adapt to the battlefield in advance.
After all, just completing missions won't allow him to become the Fourth Hokage that he wants.
Mission and war are two completely different concepts.
"Uh, old man, do you trust me so much?"
Tsunade looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen strangely, after all, she had no experience in leading a team before.
"Don't let me down, Tsunade."
Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke in a deep voice.
In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen had some selfish motives in placing Kaoru next to Tsunade.
The Three Nations Alliance has not really launched a war with all its strength yet. It is just testing how deep the water in Konoha is.
Once the war becomes intense, the Grass Country has Orochimaru and Jiraiya to support each other, the Frost Country has Hatake Sakumo, and there is no need to say more about the strength of Konoha White Fang.
The person he trusted the most in the three-way battlefield was Hatake Sakumo.
However, only in the battlefield of River Country, although Tsunade restrained the opponent's puppet troops, she had no previous leadership experience.
There is another meaning behind arranging Kaoru to be by Tsunade's side besides allowing her to gain experience.
In extremely dangerous moments, Kaoru can take Tsunade and escape instantly.
Use the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly escape from the battlefield.
Everyone can sacrifice, except Tsunade!
Tsunade is able to ensure the survival rate of ninjas to the greatest extent, not only because of her identity as the princess of the Senju clan, but more importantly because of her ability!
"Okay, old man, then just wait for my good news."
Tsunade patted his chest and promised.
Jiu Xing looked around and it seemed that everyone had a mission except him and Shimura Danzo.
"What about me and this old man?"
Jiu Xing pointed at Shimura Danzo and spoke.
Danzo Shimura looked at the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki who was pointing at him rudely, his mouth twitched and he ignored him.
"Danzo is responsible for underground intelligence warfare. He has his mission."
"As for you, you are not allowed to go anywhere until the other party uses the tailed beast."
Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Jiu Xing and spoke in a deep voice.
"OK then."
Jiu Xing scratched his head, then pointed to the Rain Country on the Ninja World map on the table and said, "I heard that Salamander Hanzo is quite powerful, so what should we do about him?"
Jiu Xing's words made Sarutobi Hiruzen pause.
Because of the goodwill shown by Salamander Hanzo before, although it was obstructed by unknown forces halfway, he subconsciously felt that the other party was leaning towards him.
Just let the other person know that you understand what he means.
But the Rain Kingdom has been eerily quiet since then, with no news at all.
Even the pawns that Danzo's intelligence system had planted in the Rain Country had no news at all.
Now it seems that this Rain Country is also a hidden danger!
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was uncertain, and after a long time he looked at his old friend silently.
Danzo Shimura.
Since Mitokado En and Utane Koharu are not suitable to be leaders of the war, the only choice left is Shimura Danzo.
"I see."
"If there's any movement from Salamander Hanzo, I'll go there myself."
Shimura Danzo said helplessly.
"Then please."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. Since Danzo decided to take action himself, the Rain Country could be put aside for the time being.
I hope Salamander Hanzo won’t be ungrateful.
Jiu Xing glanced at Danzo Shimura and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Forget it, let him go. What happened to Uzumaki Nagato cannot be undone.
Then let this guy explore the way.
"In that case, everyone."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the group of Konoha's most trusted officials and said:
"Gentlemen, may your military fortunes flourish!"
—
Jiu Xing leaned against the door frame and watched the blonde girl rummaging through the drawers in front of her.
Xun has a habit of hoarding supplies. If there is a discount on toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and various daily necessities, she likes to buy a lot and hoard them in her little house.
These naturally include combat supplies such as kunai, detonating tags, medical bandages, and military ration pills.
So even though this war came so suddenly and unexpectedly, Xun was well prepared and didn't need to rush to prepare anything.
Although there are military supplies, they are not as good as those carefully crafted weapons.
For example, Kaoru's Flying Thunder God Kunai can only be specially made.
Looking at the girl in front of him who was preparing seriously, if Jiu Xing and she were just casual acquaintances, he would only think that the future Golden Flash would still be Golden Flash even if she became a female.
But the two have become the closest people.
Jiu Xing still couldn't help but worry about her.
Under such psychological effects, Jiu Xing's face really didn't look good.
Even golden flash can get hurt.
Jiu Xing couldn't help feeling annoyed when she thought that the girl might be staying in the tent alone, enduring the pain and licking her wounds silently.
"Xun..."
Jiu Xing looked at the girl in front of him and spoke.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Xun turned around and looked at Jiu Xing with some confusion.
The golden hair was a little broken and covered her cheeks. Through the gaps in the hair, her blue eyes could be seen. The sunlight shone through the window onto Xun's face, making the girl in front of her look like an angel...
Looking at the girl in front of him, Jiu Xing became more and more annoyed.
