Just like after Mt. Myoboku was listed as a terrorist force, after Ryuji-dong was included in the anti-terrorism force's elimination list, another small country with venomous snakes, the Numa Country, stood up and claimed that its snakes might be branches of Ryuji-dong. , thus immediately attracting a team of anti-terrorist ninjas to conduct reconnaissance.
Of course, just like in the Kingdom of Forest, the counter-terrorism forces did not find any traces of ninja snakes in the Kingdom of Swamp. However, in line with the guiding ideology of "everyone comes, they come", the anti-terrorist ninjas still wiped out all the large venomous snakes in the country.
After the anti-terrorist ninjas happily beheaded the large poisonous snakes that were causing trouble in the place and brought them back as military exploits, the Swamp Country, which had alleviated the snake problem, immediately announced that as a country rich in snakes, they had great medicinal value for all kinds of poisonous snakes. In-depth research, especially the snake wine of the Swamp Country, has a very miraculous effect on the aspects that men care about most.
Then the United Company heard the news and jointly opened a brewery with the local daimyo nobles. After determining the brand and standards, it quickly promoted it to all parts of the ninja world. The main focus was high turnover; the country of Numa became the second largest winery in the world. A small country that got rich from the war on terror.
The border troops deployed in the northwest and north, after being tense for a period of time, began to return to daily patrol status under the instructions of their superiors.
The reason is very simple. After Iwagakure and Kumogakure formed the Northern Alliance combat force, they never made any other moves. They just retreated to the northern part of Takino Country for daily tactical training. They had no intention of going south in the short term, let alone using counter-terrorism. Infiltrating the southern part of Takino Country in the name of
Therefore, with the exception of a detachment directly under the headquarters of the Joint Anti-Terrorism Force, other Konoha and Shogunate ninja troops who were transferred to the territory of Takino Country have withdrawn to their headquarters and reopened trade between the north and south of Takino Country.
The composition of the directly affiliated detachment stationed at the border is also quite interesting.
Uchiha Shiina selected half of the one hundred and twenty Suna ninjas supported by Sunagakure from the Wind Country to mix them with Konoha ninjas and Grass ninjas to form a special multinational joint anti-terrorism detachment, and Sunagakure has recently become famous. The young Jonin Luo Sha serves as the detachment leader.
As for the external reason, it is because Sunagakure of the Wind Country is one of the five great ninja villages of the five great countries and has the ability and responsibility to shoulder such a responsibility.
As for the real reason, Uchiha Shiina planned to use this detachment as a front-line consumable and drag the Sunagakure lineage of the Wind Country into the fuse of the future war against the Northern Alliance.
As for Sunagakure, although some of them expressed their concerns about their ninjas being rashly thrown to the border, most of them were satisfied with the respect shown by the joint anti-terrorist forces to Sunagakure.
After all, although the anti-terrorism force is nominally a multinational coalition, positions above the first level of the detachment are basically monopolized by Konoha ninjas. Sunagakure jounin Rasa is the first to break the "career ceiling", so he deserves the support of the village. .
Therefore, after carefully listening to the arguments of the two factions of Sunagakure, the Third Kazekage finally chose to support Rasa and sent another two hundred Sunagakure ninjas to join the joint anti-terrorist force, and thus received a new detachment. chief position.
…
In the alliance forces composed of Iwagakure and Kumogakure, some "unpleasant episodes" began to occur due to the old conflicts between the two parties.
Ever since Kumogakure was defeated and the Kingdom of Thunder ceded its territory, Iwagakure, who consciously wanted to take revenge, had established a psychological advantage over Kumogakure, feeling that these dark-skinned Kumogakure barbarians were just his defeated generals, even now They are united only because the great Iwagakure sympathizes with the declining Kumogakure. In addition, the number of Iwagakure in the alliance forces is higher than Kumogakure, so the command positions at all levels of the ninja army should be arranged by Iwagakure.
However, the Fourth Ai, the head of Kumogakure who was transferred to the Alliance Ninja Army, disagreed with this statement. He pointed out that Kumogakure and Iwagakure are both among the five major ninja villages, and their status should be on equal footing. There is no saying that one side is higher than the other, so The positions of the Ninja Army should be determined through negotiation between the two parties, while ensuring combat effectiveness while taking into account fairness, so as to maintain the original intention of forming an alliance Ninja Army.
But the fourth generation Ai's words attracted more ridicule from the Iwagakure jounin, especially the Iwagakure jounin who was transferred from the Frost Kingdom's dispatched army.
"I once heard Commander-in-Chief Tetsushi say that during the conquest, the Kumogakure Nangenin Army could not survive the shogunate's offensive for even a day. How could Fela hold an important command position if he was so unbearable!"
Iwagakure Jounin, who was from the dispatched army, made fun of him in front of all the Jounin on both sides at the military affairs meeting.
"Furthermore, with Kumogakure's current military strength, can more ninjas be dispatched to join the joint force in the future?"
This sentence also hit Yunyin's weakness.
The Northern Alliance combat force currently only has 2,000 ninjas on staff, and Kumogakure only has about 700 of them.
The deployment of these seven hundred ninjas was the maximum that Kumogakure could mobilize without weakening the various ninja armies stationed abroad and undertaking missions.
Even after many years of gathering, the number of ninjas in Ninja Village still needs time to grow. It is not possible to quickly obtain a group of useful ninjas just by spending resources.
"The formation of the alliance ninja army is the common will of the two village shadows. Your village ninja's words are so harsh and vicious. Aren't you worried that it will cause unnecessary trouble to the alliance between the two parties?"
The Fourth Ai's conversation turned to Iwagakure, who was silently meditating in the audience, to assist Huangtu.
According to the agreement between the Tsuchikage and the Raikage, this new ninja army will be the best witness of the "traditional friendship" between the two great ninja villages. Therefore, the Raikage knew that his side would not send many troops, so he voluntarily gave up his attempt to make Kumo Yin ninja Instead, he made Ai, his successor, the chief of staff of the Ninja Army, and gave up the position of commander to Loess of Iwagakure; as for the specific middle-level managers at all levels, due to time reasons and being a village It was difficult for Zhiying to bargain, so he just decided to negotiate after forming an alliance force.
The contradiction lies in the selection of jounin at the detachment level.
In order to weaken the vaguely self-contained Frost Kingdom dispatched army, Tsuchikage Onoki transferred 500 ninjas from his department to the south in one go. The purpose was to weaken the number of ninja troops actually controlled by Iron Stone Jonin, and Iron Stone was also uniting On the advice of the company, he sent his confidant Ishiyama Ninja south to join the Alliance Ninja Army, and asked his confidants to make a big noise in Iwagakure before convening a military meeting, declaring that "the great and powerful Iwagakure must obtain all detachment levels." position".
Although Huang Tu also knew that the remarks of these Iwagakure jounin from the dispatched army system had bad intentions, he could not find a suitable reason and the Iwagakure ninjas from the Ninja Village also supported this argument, so he did not stop it in time.
But after the matter started to come to the military affairs meeting, the conflict between Iwagakure and Kumogakure completely heated up.
Even the fourth generation Eben had the idea of compromising a little in order to unite, but he was completely angered by the remarks of the Iwagakure Ishiyama Shinobi.
However, he found that when he suppressed his anger and asked Huang Tu for help, Huang Tu had a look of indifference on his face.
"This matter will be discussed further..."
Loess was not in a hurry to express his position, but chose to change the topic: "In addition to the duties at the detachment level, the reorganization of the Ninja Army is the top priority, and according to the decision of the Tsuchikage-sama and Raikage-sama, the Allied Ninja Army The group will use a new forehead protection logo to highlight the close friendship between the two ninja villages..."
When the ninjas from both sides of the Alliance Ninja Army had just arrived, Kumogakure and Iwagakure organized many drills, and as a result, they discovered that there was a particularly "distinct" opposition between the ninjas on the two sides.
Although the top leaders of the two major ninja villages have been promoting "friendly cooperation" internally, the middle and lower-level ninjas on both sides have never understood this. Iwagakure thinks that Kumogakure is just a group of defeated subordinates, while Kumogakure feels that Iwagakure is taking advantage of others' danger. Therefore, even during the exercise, various phenomena of refusing to save people and adding insult to injury emerged in endlessly. Not only did the conflicts between the two sides not be resolved due to the establishment of the coalition, but they became more and more instigated by Iwagakure from the dispatched army. More superficial.
Therefore, after discussions between Huang Tu and Fourth Ai, they decided to completely disrupt the organization of the ninjas on both sides and completely mix them, hoping that this would enable the ninjas of the two villages to achieve "mutual understanding" while getting along day and night.
This is why Fourth Generation Ai is so anxious.
If the reorganization of the ninjas on both sides is completely disrupted, and if Kumogakure does not have the support of a detachment-level jounin, his so-called chief of staff will become a neglected figure, then whether it is the transferred ninja or Kumogakure's headquarters will have a negative impact on the alliance ninjas Jun was greatly disappointed, and his prestige as an advocate of the alliance between the two villages would be damaged.
What's more important is that the fourth generation Ai cannot let his plan of "Lian Yan and Kang Ye" fail, otherwise it will affect his plan to capture the eight tails in the next few years.
…
While the Allied Ninja Army in the northern part of Taki Country was still quarreling for power, the captain of the Rasa detachment on the southern confrontation line was already addicted to the pleasure of commanding the elite Ninja Army.
As the strongest of the younger generation of Sunagakure, Rasa is also a highly valued existence in the Kingdom of Wind.
But even so, apart from his three-man team, he had no experience of commanding a ninja army of more than a hundred people.
Therefore, with the assistance of the Nara staff of the detachment, Luo Sha organized many performances and practiced all the various ninja tactics that he had studied.
During the exercise, Luo Sha did not suffer any embarrassment.
Both Konoha ninjas and Grass ninjas respected him as the captain of the detachment. Even the three chuunin from the Uchiha clan maintained the necessary respect for him, which made Rasa feel even more elated.
The Uchiha clan is the most prominent wealthy ninja clan in the ninja world! Their ninjas respect him so much, which is enough to prove that he is indeed a well-known strong man in the ninja world.
As a result, Rasa became more and more confident in competing for the position of the next generation Kazekage and Guanbai of the Wind Country.
"Kazekage is the leader recommended by the Sunagakure ninjas. It should be voted for by the jonins in the village, right? Scorpion jounin."
In her free time, Luo Sha took her deputy, Xia, known as "Sunagakure's strongest puppet master", to chat with her.
Although Scorpion's grandmother Chiyo died, her younger brother Ebizo is still the powerful elder of Sunagakure. Although he has been in semi-retirement, his voice is so important that even the talented and powerful Third Kazekage has to bow his head. Three points.
Xie glanced at him, said "Oh" casually, and continued to play with his puppet.
"...If you have time, you can walk more and communicate more with ninjas from other ninja villages. This way you can not only increase your knowledge, but also gain more inspiration by drawing parallels."
Luo Sha continued.
"You've been talking for almost half an hour, can I leave?"
Xie was unmoved. After saying a word, he controlled the two puppets to pick him up and left.
"...What an ignorant bastard!"
Luo Sha's face turned livid from the rebuke. After Xia walked away, she cursed in a low voice, and then left with a wave of sleeves, continuing to have a "heart-to-heart" chat with the other Sunagakure jounin.
"parents……"
Scorpion's puppet has its own specially equipped heating boiler, which can emit a temperature as high as human body temperature, but even so, Scorpion's heart is still extremely cold.
His parents and grandmother both died at the hands of Konoha ninjas during the Second Ninja War, which was a very heavy blow to him.
Even if he combined all his skills and created two puppets named "Father and Mother", this still could not make up for the memory of his parents and the resentment towards Konoha ninjas.
His parents and grandma Chiyo all died indirectly or directly under the attack of Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hatake Sakumo.
"Scorpion Jonin~"
Yura, the Sunagakure chuunin, came running over.
"What's up?"
Xia stopped and asked coldly.
"The materials you ordered to purchase last time have arrived~"
Yura Chuunin nodded and bowed.
"Give me……"
Scorpion controlled the puppet "Father" and stretched out his left hand.
"Okay~ Here are the puppet materials you need~"
Yuliang immediately took out a scroll and placed it on the puppet's "father"'s machine arm.
"United Company?!"
As soon as Xie saw the Uanfan logo on the seal scroll, he immediately frowned and said with a displeased face: "You gave the money to the United Company? Let those guys go purchase it?!"
"Scorpion Jonin...the chakra metal and special alloy you need can only be purchased through the United Company's channels..."
Yura quickly explained: "And now even the black market strongholds have been swept away. Even if I want to find other channels, there is nothing I can do..."
"snort!"
Xie snorted coldly and walked away without further talking to his subordinate Yuliang.
"...Your boss doesn't seem to be easy to talk to?"
After Scorpion walked away, an Uchiha ninja came over and hooked up with Yura.
"Well... the Scorpion Jonin is a bit indifferent."
Yura replied with an awkward smile.
He was also embarrassed to say that Scorpion's attitude was so bad, probably because his hatred for the Uchiha clan could never be eliminated.
"By the way, you are about to be promoted to a special jounin, right? Why do you still have to humiliate yourself in such a groveling manner to such a declining high-ranking disciple?"
The Uchiha ninja secretly fanned the flames.
"There's no way... I'm just a commoner who doesn't even have a last name..."
Yura sighed helplessly.
"I didn't expect Sunagakure to value family background so much..."
The Uchiha ninja exclaimed, "Let's go to the training ground to have fun!"
Then he pulled Yura, who seemed half-competent on the surface but was willing in his heart, to the training ground.
Standing in the command post and seeing such a "friendly and friendly" scene, Luo Sha couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile on his face.
I have to work overtime tonight to complete the acceptance check for subsequent settlement. Double updates will be resumed tomorrow.
