If the enemy can do something, I will do the same again; if the enemy can go, I will go again!
Uchiha Tokko Uchiha has never been in the habit of waiting for others to fight. Whether it was Grass Country versus Iwagakure or now against Sunagakure, he had no intention of indulging them in the slightest.
As long as his strength allows, he has no intention of appeasement or compromise.
If you take the initiative and annihilate all the enemies, there will naturally be no defensive problems.
Coincidentally, Hatake Sakumo, as a believer in the fundamental doctrine of "The Will of Fire", happens to have such a character.
After the Western Border Defense Force camp made detailed arrangements for the Ninja Army to go into battle, Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo immediately returned to the temporary base of the Mobile Force and began to collect supplies for pre-war preparations. The stationed Deguang Red Guards issued a transfer order.
The western border defense forces also began to actively shrink the defense area and gather forces to prepare for attack.
After Akimichi Tofeng made the pre-war arrangements, he immediately set off to return to the dispatched army camp in the Kingdom of Rain to coordinate combat matters.
Kawa no Kuni and Umo no Kuni will form two theaters. Among them, the Kawa no Kuni direction will be the main attack, with Hatake Sakumo as the combat commander; the Ume no Kuni direction will focus on containment, but it will be launched first before the Kawa no Kuni direction. A small-scale feint attack was carried out to attract Sunagakure's troops, with Akimichi Tofaze personally in charge.
At the same time, a combat plan memorandum was sent back to Konoha and presented to the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Active attack...Uchiha...ninja private army..."
These words that represented trouble were intertwined, giving Hiruzen Sarutobi a particularly headache.
But now the dice has been thrown and we can only move on.
If the war is stopped forcibly, not only will he be unhappy with his old classmate Akimichi Tifeng, who serves as the general of the dispatch force, but if word gets out later, he will inevitably be stigmatized as a coward as a Hokage.
After smoking his pipe wildly for a while, Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to go to the hospital to see his old friend Shimura Danzo who was still receiving treatment and ask for his opinion.
…
Konoha Hospital, special care floor.
Even though it was in a wartime state at this time, Konoha Hospital was already overcrowded, but the most advanced single-person special care ward still had many rooms reserved for emergencies.
No, there is already a Konoha high-level executive who has successfully moved in.
"Danzo, are you feeling better?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen came to Danzo's ward wearing casual clothes and carrying a bag of fruit.
In the spacious and bright special care ward, Danzo was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale, and beside him were a lot of unknown advanced instruments monitoring his physical condition.
"Without one arm and one leg, how can it be better?"
Danzo's words were filled with resentment.
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't care about Danzo's tone and waved away the root ninja who was the guard in the ward. He put the fruit he brought on the table and took out an apple and started peeling it.
"Hasn't he already been brought back?"
His right hand and right leg were severed by Hanzo, and then the severed limbs were desperately retrieved by the root ninjas under his command, but something went wrong during the retrieval.
After Danzo was seriously injured, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade stepped forward to fight Sansho Hanzo. Danzo had to undergo emergency surgery due to his serious injury, and the medical ninja responsible for the surgery was under the coercion of the root ninja. , I forgot to check the condition of the severed limb in a hurry, and did not find that the toxins contained in the severed limb were contained in the Sansho fish Hanzo. It was only after the limb was reattached that something was wrong.
When the toxin began to spread from the severed limb to the whole body, Tsunade had just returned to camp. After examination, in order to alleviate the impact of the toxin, she could only cut off her right hand and leg again to isolate and resolve the toxin.
But after going back and forth like this, Danzo's already battered severed limb developed a big problem. Although it was successfully reattached after the toxins were removed, after going back and forth, the activity of the severed limb also had a big problem, and there are still big problems. Risk of necrosis, especially in the humid environment of the Land of Rain.
I had no choice but to send him back to Konoha Hospital, which had a better medical environment, for postoperative care.
"So what? It's better to just give it up."
Danzo's face was ashen, "Even if you die, it's better than being a human being and a ghost now!"
After these few days of bed rest, he actually knew the condition of his limbs.
I don't dare to hope that I can return to my previous condition. Even if I can walk normally and fetch things, it would be a huge blessing.
Physical disability is the biggest blow to a ninja, especially when he loses his dominant right hand and a leg.
For a ninja, strength is the foundation of his life.
Danzo, who was destined to be greatly reduced in strength, had his mind filled with the miserable scene after he lost his power due to the plummeting strength.
"...It will be fine. The chief doctor has said that as long as you cooperate with the treatment, there is still a lot of hope." Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was also a little sad. After all, he is his old friend and an extremely useful person. Tools, seeing this dejected look makes me feel really bad.
Besides Danzo, who else could continue to bear the weight of Konoha's darkness?
Before coming to the hospital, Sarutobi Hiruzen had considered this problem countless times.
But after much thought, there was no suitable candidate.
Danzo's expression did not soften due to Sarutobi Hiruzen's comfort. He remained motionless, pale and dying, looking straight at the equally pale ceiling.
"This time, after all, you were careless..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen criticized unceremoniously, "As the general of the dispatch army, I don't want to sit in the center and command the ninja army. Instead, I rush to the front of the battle like a jounin. Do you think you are Teacher Tobirama!"
"Even Tobirama-sensei can't withstand the siege of the Golden Horn and Silver Horn troops!"
"Besides, you are not young anymore, and your strength has begun to decline a long time ago! Why bother to be as brave and fierce as those young people!"
A series of scoldings were given to the bedridden Danzo.
"You came here just to see my jokes?" Danzo still said coldly, his tone full of gloomy death.
"I asked Qiao Feng to take over the position of general!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen peeled the fruit and took a bite, "You should know this news, right?"
Since Danzo's control of the root ninja is based on the confinement effect of the Tongue-Bane Seal, he does not have to worry about the loyalty of his existing subordinates. At the same time, he can also obtain the information he wants remotely from bed.
"I know, but this is not a good choice..." Danzo's tone became slightly more angry, and his eyes turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen, "At first we asked him to 'retreat' in his prime, but even after all these years, , his resentment should not be eliminated yet..."
"I also understand your concerns, and I have thought about it..." Sarutobi Hiruzen also looked directly into Danzo's eyes, "After all, he is also a fellow apprentice in the same sect..."
"so what?"
"I originally thought that it would be better for Tie Feng to serve as the general of the dispatched army than those from the ninja clan. Moreover, the number of ninja soldiers in the dispatched army was reduced beforehand..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, a little helpless, "But I didn't expect that he would collude with Uchiha so quickly..."
"Uchiha..."
Upon hearing this name, Danzo's face turned white with a hint of black.
"He still has resentment in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't be so angry..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.
It seems that the grudges left over from the past have not dissipated with the passage of time.
"Do you have any thoughts about this?"
"The serving Inorakacho ninjas have some opinions on taking the wind..." Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated for a moment and continued: "But the conservative faction within the three clans, especially the elders who have lost their power..."
"Hiruzen! Listen to me and deal with them quickly!"
Danzo was angry and anxious, and after he finished speaking, he started coughing violently.
The medical equipment started beeping non-stop, and the medical ninja rushed in to perform emergency intervention, and then left after calming down.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen did not express his position on Danzo's suggestion.
"Hiruzhan, you are still too soft-hearted..." Danzo slowly closed his eyes, "This will kill you..."
"The general situation does not allow it..." Sarutobi Hiruzen also felt a little tired, "Besides, it seems that Sakumo has no chance of recovery..."
"Then find an opportunity to eliminate his clan members!" Danzo said through gritted teeth, "If not, more ninja clans will definitely fall to them!"
"Danzo, you still haven't changed..."
"It's already here, and you're still struggling with this!"
Hearing this, Danzo became even more furious, "If we don't suppress those evil Uchiha, there will be endless troubles!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen remained silent.
"Don't think that those ninjas must hate Uchiha, you must know that they are all ninjas!" Danzo continued to insist on his point of view, "The ninjas are just moths and wallflowers. When Uchiha established the Police Department Academy, Some ninjas have already wavered! If we don’t deal with them ruthlessly, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"How to deal with it?" Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was equally gloomy, "Storm into their clan territory, capture them and behead them in public? Do you want to start a civil war in the village tomorrow?"
"Then throw them to the battlefield to die!"
"Without the consent of those people, can you recruit non-registered ninjas to the battlefield?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe, ignored Danzo who was bedridden, filled it with tobacco leaves, lit it, and took a deep puff: "The more critical the situation, the more you need to face it with determination! Danzo, you have stayed underground for too long. Now, I have already forgotten the rules under the sun!"
"Rules..." Danzo's cold eyes stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen, "You came here today just to talk to me about this?"
Isn't the reason why he hides in the darkness, becomes a root buried deep in the ground, and never does good deeds or bad deeds all to assist Hiruzen, the Hokage?
"Tofu decided to launch an attack on Sunagakure..." Sarutobi Hiruzen took out an opened letter from his sleeve and handed it to Danzo.
Danzo raised his left hand with difficulty and took out the documents.
"That Uchiha brat... If I had known, I would have risked my life and killed him!"
Danzo read the letter carefully and felt extremely exhausted physically and mentally, "More than two hundred private troops of chuunin and above are all direct leaders of that evil brat with a hairless mouth..."
"Any ideas?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked his pipe fiercely, exhaling thick clouds of smoke.
"Tell Orochimaru that after the feint attack, the ninja troops on the front line of Rain Country will be withdrawn in the name of support, and then slowly move towards Kawa Country."
This is equivalent to showing Sunagakure that this headquarters is just a feint attack as a cover. The Sunagakure brothers quickly go to Kawa no Kuni and kill that bastard Uchiha Tokimitsu!
Moreover, by mobilizing the Ninja Army to Kawa no Kuni, they can also pick peaches after the Ninja Army and Sunagakure Ninja Army from Kawa No Kuni are about the same. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed slightly.
Danzo's plan is simple and vicious, but the price is likely to be that the entire western border defense force will be trapped, which makes him a little difficult to make up his mind.
Danzo glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen's troubled expression, closed his eyes again and fell asleep, "You don't need to make a decision now, you can think about it when you go back..."
Danzo also knew that this old friend, as Hokage, had long been accustomed to masks in the sun, and would not decide to adopt his opinion so quickly.
But it doesn't matter, Sarutobi Hiruzen will still execute it like this in the end anyway; now it's just a pretense.
"You have a good rest..." Sarutobi Hiruzen struggled for a while, then stood up and prepared to leave.
"Um……"
Danzo hummed in response.
"Don't worry... Anbu is still yours..." Just as he was about to turn the door lock and leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped and said without looking back, "It's just that you need to increase the number of people training the Anbu. Enough manpower is needed.”
After saying that, he opened the door and left.
When Danzo heard this, his originally pale face suddenly turned a little red.
Looking at the still pale ceiling, I suddenly felt that this time had become colorful again.
…
A hidden and dark underground cave in the ninja world.
A strange humanoid creature that was pale in color and had barbs on its back was running funny and laughing all the way.
Along the way, there were many white humanoid creatures wandering around.
"Hey! What kind of poop are you studying!"
The running white humanoid creature suddenly found a group of similar white humanoid creatures gathered together, forming a circle, and making strange screams from time to time.
The white humanoid creature, unable to control its curiosity, quickly squeezed in to watch the excitement.
After finally squeezing in, I found that there were just a few of the same kind lying in the crowd with blue noses and swollen eyes.
"Huh? What's weird about this?"
The white humanoid felt very strange.
The other white humanoid creatures around him dragged him into the circle and beat him to the ground without any explanation.
Then he became like those lying in the middle with black noses and swollen eyes.
The hands and feet that formed the encirclement continued to make strange screams.
"Hey! Didn't you go out today? Did you find any interesting poop?"
A white humanoid creature recognized this unlucky fellow who had been beaten just after returning.
"Ouch!"
The white humanoid creature lying on the ground making funny noises suddenly remembered his mission, "I have information to report to Madara-sama!!!"
"Ouch!!!"
The white humanoid creatures that formed the encirclement dispersed in a rush.
The white humanoid creature with a bruised nose and swollen eyes quickly struggled to its feet and continued to walk into the darkness.
Until they came to a cave with an unusually wide space.
"Madara-sama! I have important information to report back!"
In the darkness, under a strange-shaped tree, a dying old man slowly raised his head.
"Bai Jue... I hope your information this time will no longer be weird shit... Otherwise I will turn you into shit!"
The old man's eyes flashed red in the dark space.
