Uchiha's opinion

"Boss Mrs. Wen...why don't we stop chasing him~"

After breaking through several sniper positions of the shogunate ninja army, the ninjas also began to feel anxious.

Although the Shogunate Second Exploration Team also adopted a fighting and retreating method based on the transfer station left by the first team to snipe separately, but because it was more fully prepared before departure and carried more large-scale war ninja tools, it was more difficult for the pursuit. Naturally, the casualties caused by the Myoboku Mountain Ninja Frog will be greater.

Gamabunta remained silent and continued to lead the already panicked Ninjas in pursuit.

It cannot retreat.

Although it deeply regrets taking over the mess left by Tomahiro, at this point, it can only bite the bullet and continue to pursue it until it is unable to move forward.

Otherwise, even the furious Toad Immortal would not be able to spare it.

But the psychological shadow caused by these brave shogunate ninja troops was also very large for him.

Whether it was the variety of various and powerful ninja tools, the determination to risk their lives and launch a brilliant counterattack, or even the vicious traps they left on themselves even after they died in battle, they all left a deep impression on Gamabunta. impression.

In the past, Gamabunta actually didn't quite understand why Gamadaisennin was so concerned about the affairs of the ninja world but chose to go to great lengths to intervene behind the scenes - wouldn't it be more straightforward to directly dispatch ninja frogs to pacify the ninja world?

But after this battle, Gamabunta finally understood - ninjas are really not afraid of death!

And not just one or two!

And this is also the fundamental reason why Gamabunta did not rush into the formation alone with his size and speed to hold back the shogunate ninja troops who were fighting and retreating.

In the past, the explanation given by the Myoboku Mountain lineage for the complete failure to support the "Akatsuki Organization" was that "the shogunate adopted a partial human wave tactic and relied on despicable means to cut off the Myoboku Mountain reinforcements far outside the wilderness, which led to the final failure."

Therefore, now the Myoboku Mountain lineage has chosen to intervene directly and stand semi-publicly with Kumogakure, Iwagakure and other ninja villages, which can be regarded as a response to the previous "self-summary".

But will it be the right decision...

Gamabunta had some doubts about this.

"boom!"

Just after the Ninja Vanguard crossed a position abandoned by the shogunate, after the Ninja Brigade entered the position, with a short burning sound, the position immediately exploded!

"It's this detonating talisman booby trap again!"

Gamabunta no longer had the energy to get angry, so he just asked some of the uninjured Ninja to treat those of his own race who were carelessly injured.

However, nearly a thousand Ninja Frogs have been pursuing since before setting off. They have been killed or injured by heavy snipers from the Shogunate Ninja Army, or they have been evacuated to rescue their comrades. At this time, there are only about 600 Ninja Frogs left.

Moreover, Gamabunta also discovered a huge flaw of his own, that is, the equipment is really poor!

Due to the relative lack of iron ore and coal mines in Mount Myoboku, and large-scale mining is not carried out to protect the environment, and the body structure of Ninja is not very suitable for smelting, the Myoboku Mountain lineage does not have the ability to cast weapons on a large scale. The small amount of self-produced products are only relatively crude weapons and protective equipment such as steel forks, broadswords, and wrist guards, and the quality varies.

If a ninja is channeled and goes out to participate in a ninja war, since there are still contracted ninjas, the lack of ninja tools is not a disadvantage. On the contrary, it can take advantage of the Myobokuyama ninja frog's jumping and dashing abilities.

But if they fight in formation, the shortcomings of the ninja frogs will be completely exposed.

They lack detonating charms, throwing ninja tools, protective gear, first aid medicine, and even seal scrolls to carry supplies and all the necessary materials for a ninja army!

That's it, a slap in the face!

"Boss Mrs. Wen, we are out of water..."

A ninja frog stepped forward and said pitifully.

"...Retreat!"

Although his face was very unhappy, Gamabunta's heart was completely opposite! The spirit that has been so tense can finally relax a little.

…

"Finally home……"

When Uchiha Seiji finally left the wilderness and set foot in the desert of the Land of Wind, he felt very at ease!

Even the yellow sand flying all over the sky, the dying Populus euphratica, and the sparse date palm trees all look so bright and delicate.

Even the trace of imperceptible moisture in the hot air made him feel extremely moisturized.

"Thank you for your hard work..."

The person who was ordered to come to greet these meritorious ninjas was Uchiha Shisui. Although he was still young, he treated others with good etiquette. "But we still need to persist. Lord Tokumitsu has already arranged the honors and banquet, and is waiting for everyone." gone back!"

"Wan Sheng!"

The exploration team members immediately cheered.

Uchiha Shisui then arranged for medical ninjas brought from the Western Border Defense Force to examine and treat everyone. After they had rested and set off again, he said to Ye Cang, who had been standing silently, "Thank you Suna. Thank you for the convenience given this time..."

No matter how good the relationship between the shogunate and the Kazekage is, the ninja army needs to report before entering, and it is also necessary to send surveillance personnel to accompany Sunagakure to avoid misunderstandings. However, what is unexpected this time is that Sunagakure's opposition leader Hayakura personally takes action. That’s all.

"What I didn't expect was that the shogunate would still have the leisure to explore the wild lands. Do you feel that the benefits of the ninja world are no longer enough for you to divide?"

Ye Cang's words were full of anger and anger.

"Exploring the unknown is what drives us forward, whether it's ninjutsu, the world we live in, or even the stars in the sky..."

Uchiha Shisui naturally wouldn't mind this.

Moreover, Ye Cang's dissatisfaction is nothing more than the incompetent barking of a defeated dog to him, so there is no need to pay much attention to it.

"Is it Mount Myoki?"

Ye Cang asked unexpectedly.

"How did you..."

Uchiha Shisui subconsciously replied, but before he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong, and then he swallowed the words he was about to blurt out.

"Green blood..."

Ye Cang said quite proudly: "The only one who can cause damage to the ninja army of the shogunate, and the blood stained on their bodies is a strange red with green color, is the legendary Miaomu Mountain."

"Is it……"

Although Ye Cang was right, Uchiha Shisui still had no intention of admitting it.

"Don't think that we, Sunagakure, know nothing about the wilderness. As early as the time of Grandmaster Liedou, we organized an adventure team to go deep into the wilderness, but we didn't find anything valuable."

Ye Cang continued.

Although she seemed casual, her eyes were always paying attention to Uchiha Shisui's expression.

"Sunagakure is indeed the most enterprising ninja village..."

Uchiha Shisui praised absentmindedly.

After he regained his composure, he was naturally not so easily led astray by words or even revealed secrets.

Although...Yakura in cool clothes is indeed quite charming, Uchiha Shisui is still an underdeveloped kid, so his resistance is naturally relatively strong.

"The weather in the Kingdom of Wind is much hotter than that of Konoha, which has a pleasant climate, right..."

Ye Cang pulled the hem of his clothes, as if fanning himself.

Uchiha Shisui simply turned his head away, out of sight.

"The Sunagakure ninja is real!"

Although he seemed to be cursing guiltily in his heart, Uchiha Shisui had to admit...

"So white!"

…

"The location of Miaomu Mountain has been clearly identified, and the brave men of the exploration team have also returned from the wilderness..."

In the Konoha Governor's Palace, Uchiha Tokumitsu secretly summoned the top leaders of Konoha and the shogunate system.

"The alien and anti-human gangsters in Miaomu Mountain must be destroyed!"

This was the tone of the meeting set by Uchiha Tokko.

Mito Kadenyan who was present was immediately shocked.

However, after seeing the calm and composed appearance of the senior officials of various departments, Xiao Jiujiu took control of his inner self.

"Minister Yan..."

As the saying goes, what you fear will come to you, but Uchiha Tokumitsu was the first to name Mito Kadobu.

"exist!"

Mito Menyan responded immediately.

"Please also explain to you the village's material reserves."

Uchiha Tokko said.

"...We currently have 120,000 standard ninja tools in reserve, 3.6 million detonating charms, 90,000 medical supplies, and military food pills that are enough to support 30,000 ninjas in continuous combat for six months."

"If we increase the intensity of procurement and storage, the inventory can be doubled in about three months..."

"According to data from the Ministry of Finance, this year's fiscal balance is 1.7 billion taels, book funds are 8.2 billion taels, and two bonds totaling 5.2 billion are about to expire, so if the treasury continues to be stocked..."

Mito Katoyan did not continue, because Uchiha Tokumitsu knew the situation of Konoha's Finance Department best.

"I will ask the stock exchange to extend the village's two bonds, but the top priority is the collection and storage of military supplies. At this time, Minister Yan needs to communicate with each family."

Uchiha Demitsu said: "In addition, the medicines can be appropriately tilted towards the Nara clan, even if they are given certain care, it will not be a problem...

"As you wish!"

Mito Menyan responded quickly.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable to say that Mito Menyan can become an evergreen tree in Konoha's political arena. Even Yinghe spoke so elegantly and was not flattering while praising it, which also made many shogunate ninjas proud. He looked sideways and silently wrote down this word.

"But in addition, ninja troops are also needed to carry these materials and ninja tools into battle..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu continued: "With the current standing ninja army in the village and the shogunate, it is probably not possible to destroy the Myoboku Mountain lineage. After all, Kumogakure Iwagakure and other forces have to guard against..."

The implication is that we need to continue to expand our army...

Tsunade's face was the darkest among everyone present.

Due to her special status, Tsunade has always maintained a relatively independent attitude in Ninja Village affairs, even if she cannot have any influence on Uchiha Tokko's decision-making, even if she does not express her opinions in public for the sake of the Senju clan. Political opinions, but she still stubbornly sticks to her own opinions.

Especially about this top-secret meeting.

From Tsunade's point of view, this is Uchiha Tokumitsu tying the entire Konoha to the Uchiha clan's chariot for his own personal revenge! This is a dangerous move that brings the village to the brink of irreversible bloody battle!

Moreover, as a contemporary contracted ninja of Shigulin, one of the holy places, Tsunade also has a relatively deep understanding of the power of the holy place.

To defeat or even destroy a holy place... this is really crazy!

What's more, Mt. Myoboku is still thousands of miles away. Even if Konoha and the shogunate can recruit enough ninja troops, she doesn't know how to deliver such a huge ninja army to Mt. Myoboku!

But what she has never understood the most is why the aloof Miaomushan is so determined to be at odds with Uchiha Tokko...

It's just that although she also asked the Great Immortal Slug this question, she didn't get a positive answer.

"...Commander Tsunade?"

Suddenly, Hatake Sakumo's greeting interrupted Tsunade's wandering thoughts.

"Chairman Sakumo..."

Tsunade came back to her senses and nodded slightly apologetically to Hatake Sakumo.

"Can the medical system support the medical mission of 20,000 ninja troops going out at the same time?"

Hatake Sakumo repeated Uchiha Tokumitsu's question.

"It's hard!"

Tsunade shook her head decisively: "The system of training medical ninjas with the military has not been implemented for a full year. The standard equipment of the marching hospital can only meet the needs of the current standing ninja army. Moreover, the training cycle of medical ninjas is long and cannot satisfy so many in a short time. The Ninja Army’s needs!”

"Master Tokumitsu, Kirigakure still has many medical ninjas that he can call on!"

Masahiko Oniden who was in the audience finally found a chance to perform.

"very good!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded with approval and said: "On the premise of not affecting the medical needs of Kirigakure headquarters, half of the medical ninjas will be sent to join the military training first!"

"I obey your orders!"

Ghost Light Masahiko responded with great joy.

Although the deployment of medical ninjas may have a certain impact on Kirigakure's relatively weak medical system for a while, in the long run, it is a great thing that can improve the overall medical level of Kirigakure in the future!

After all, compared with Konoha, the medical power of all ninja villages, including Kirigakure, is terrible!

"The reserve column in the village must strive to achieve one-third of the number of posts on staff."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said again: "This matter will trouble the four Senate presidents."

"I would like to accept your order!"

Since being removed from the position of clan leader, Mr. Dai Zongzheng and President of the Konoha Senate, Mr. Uchiha Shigata, has become more calm, and the last bit of his mentality of relying on his elders has also disappeared.

However, the number of Konoha's ninja columns is about 500. Even if the fifty columns have only one-third of the number, there are more than 7,000 ninjas!

Although it doesn't have to be completely out of work like a standing ninja army, it is enough to completely drain Konoha's idle ninjas!

"Sakumo-kun, the House of Representatives would like to trouble you to activate it..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu turned to Hatake Sakumo and said: "The shogunate will not treat all ninjas who join the reserve force badly!"

In this way, although the power to expand the reserve's shelf column is still dominated by the Uchiha Quartet, in fact, the core mobilization function has been divided into the hands of Hatake Sakumo, which can be regarded as another perfect reflection of the mutual balance between the two houses. effect.

Of course, the ninja clan in the Senate alone cannot squeeze out so much oil, so the staffing of the shelf column must be supplemented from various ninja families or civilian families.

"……I will try my best."

Hatake Sakumo hesitated, but finally agreed.

"Don't worry, the reservists will not go directly to the battlefield. The pre-arrangement is just in case."

Uchiha Tokko said in relief.

After arranging the plans for personnel, materials and even logistics and medical support, all Uchiha Tokumitsu had to do was to wait quietly for everything to be in place.
