Naruto leaves swirl white taki

Chapter 101 The eve of the decisive battle
Although high-end combat power is very important, the demands of low-level ninjas cannot be ignored. If you want to become a Hokage recognized by everyone, all Konoha ninjas are willing to throw their heads and blood for Hiruza Sarutobi. Then, All kinds of strategic materials needed for war must be guaranteed to be given to all low-level ninjas without any mistakes.

"Master Shirataki, a new batch of combat supplies has arrived successfully. There are a total of 2000 sets of quilts, 2000 sets of ninja equipment, 20000 detonating symbols, and 5000 military food pills." Anbu stood straight across from Shiratsuki's desk. , while scanning the account book in his hand, he quickly reported various figures from his mouth.

A few minutes passed, and when Anbu finished speaking, Shirataki frowned and thought for a while, and asked a little displeased, "Why are there so few this time? What's going on in the village? What the hell is Hokage-sama doing? Do you know that we are fighting bloody battles on the front line?"

After two years of honing, Shirataki's appearance has not changed much, but the aura exuding from his body is no longer the same.Seeing the faint golden glow in Shirataki's right eye under the sunglasses, this Anbu knew that Shirataki was already a little angry.

Just when he was about to explain, Nara Kaji, who came with him, quickly opened his mouth and said, "Maybe there is a problem on the road. After all, the transportation of materials is in batches, and some of the materials may be intercepted by the enemy." .”

After hearing the words, Bai Taki couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed his temples, "Give me the list of the batch of materials you sent over today."

Every time the village transports supplies to the front line, it will leave a list. This list will be backed up a few more copies in Hiruza Sarutobi's hand, and send someone to send it to Shirataki in advance, so that Shirataki can do it in his heart. There are many.

In fact, with Shirataki's emphasis on resources, he naturally knew this kind of thing, and it was because of this that he was able to find out that the amount of materials this time was wrong at the first time.

But even though he believed in his own memory, Shirataki still planned to ask Nara Shikaji to recite the number of supplies again, lest he really remember it wrong.

Shikaji Nara didn't hesitate, and immediately said, "4000 sets of quilts, 4000 sets of ninja tools, and 40000 detonating charms in total."

Before Kaji Nara finished speaking, Shirataki stood up with a huff, interrupted Kaji Nara with a wave of his hand, and said in a deep voice, "That is to say, the amount of supplies has been reduced by half? I remember, today should be the delivery date." Is there an expiration date for the shipment?"

There are two transportation routes from Konoha to Chuanzhiguo. Each time, two escort teams set off together, but now, the number of supplies is only half of the original. Does this mean that one of the escort teams is really Being attacked, in that case, the supply line. The two looked at each other, and both read similar meanings from each other's eyes.

After a while, Shirataki slowly sat back on the chair, raised his palms, leaned on his forehead and thought for a few minutes, then looked up at Kaji Nara, and ordered, "Bring the news back to the village, I want to find out what happened. Something happened." Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Shikaji Nara nodded, turned around and ran out of the tent without saying a word.

Sitting behind the desk, Shirataki thought for a while, thinking that the only enemy now is Sand Yin, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, "The ninjas are now huddled in the northwest corner of the Kawa no Kuni, and they should not be able to break through our defense line. Straight into my rear to attack the transport troops."

"Could it be that they passed through the Land of Rain and made a big detour to the Land of Fire? But how would they know the exact location of the supply line? Insiders leaked the secret? Spies?" Although it is not ruled out that the spies tipped off the information, the supply line was exposed and the transportation The troops were attacked, but Shirataki was obviously confused.

The sand ninjas have spent so much time and effort on Shiratsuki's transport troops, and it is very likely that they will detour to the land of rain. Among them, the enthusiasm shown by sand hidden is obviously very different from the previous performance.

"Three generations of Kazekage. Can you finally bear it?" This was the first thought that lingered in Shirataki's mind, and it seemed to be the closest to the truth.He was about to figure out what the confidence of Sandai Kazekage was, but at this moment, Nara Kaji, who sent the news to the back of the village, walked in with Hatake Sakumo.

Shirataki didn't say much, he just waved at Shiraji Nara and Hatake Sakumo, motioning them to sit aside, sorted out the thoughts in his head, and said lightly, "I suspect they were attacked , the entire army should have been wiped out by now, what do you think?"

Shirataki's voice fell, Nara Kaji and Hatake Sakumo frowned and pondered for a while. A few seconds later, at the end of the term, Sakumo took the lead in giving the conclusion, "It's probably Sand Shinobi who did it."

Nara Shikaji did not echo, but frowned and pursed his lips, and after a long time he said slowly, "Do you want to take a detour from the Land of Rain? But it seems... not a good choice for Sand Yin .”

"The combat strength and time spent by Sand Yin are too much, and the effort is completely out of proportion to the harvest, and after such a long distance, they are not afraid. Have other ninja troops from Konoha noticed their whereabouts?"

Glancing at Kaji Nara, Sakumo Hatake snorted unobtrusively, and pointed out the blind spots in Kaji Nara's thinking with a deadpan face, "Don't forget the old man named Kazeki in Sand Gakure."

"According to the old man's shot record two years ago, and the hidden information sent back by our spies, this guy's strength is not weak, his speed is extremely fast, and he can obviously fly."

"If it's wind erosion, then he can leap over our defense line like no one else, and kill the five Jnin standing in the transport troop all by himself, and how many Zhongnin and Jnin?"

Hatake Sakumo's words reminded Shirataki that while recalling the old Sand Ninja who had just flashed in the pan two years ago, he also thought of something else "interesting."

The corners of his mouth were raised slightly, and he pulled out a smile full of interest. Shirataki leaned back, sank his back into the soft cushion, and said leisurely, "Wind erosion, Monzaemon Sand hidden high-end There is obviously still a lot of combat power, but why... in the past two years, it is only Chiyo, Luo Sha and other juniors who have fought with us?"

"Could it be that those old guys are all old and dead? Hehe, this phenomenon seems really abnormal now. Three generations of Kazekage, this should be a big game of chess."

First he finished speaking in a slightly teasing tone, and then Shirataki turned his head to look at Nara Kaji, his face had regained his composure. "Three generations of Kazekage are probably engaged in some kind of conspiracy, did the staff find anything?"

Nara Shikaji is currently the number one leader of the General Staff Department, with a total of ten fixed members under his jurisdiction, most of whom are old Jōnin who have been battle-tested, experienced, and have a high IQ.

When Shirataki asked Nara Kaji at this time, he hoped that the staff could get a glimpse of the clues from the recent changes in Sandakin's actions and make a prediction about the next plan that Sandai Kazekage might carry out.

"Well..." Nara Kaji bowed his head and pondered for a while, before he raised his head to look at Shirataki again after a long time, with a trace of hesitation flashing across his face, "I haven't found much at the moment, and Sagakushi's recent actions seem to be the same as in the past, but"

The sound of "nothing" instantly aroused Shirataki's interest, "But what?"

"Sand Hidden recently. It seems that the frequency of material transportation has increased a lot, but based on the reports of our ninjas, the firepower of Sand Ninjas has not been significantly improved."

"Whether it's ninja equipment, detonating charms, or puppets used by puppet masters, the Sand Ninja Troops don't seem to have received batches of sufficient equipment supplies, which is very strange."

"Where are the materials transported to the Shayin camp used? Or, are those materials... really weapons and equipment?"

Shirataki pondered for a while, and unconsciously tapped his fingers on the table. Instead of looking at Kaji Nara, he asked in a low voice, "What's your guess?"

"There are too many possibilities, I can't." Before he finished speaking, Shirataki frowned slightly and narrowed his eyes to look at himself. Nara Kaji's heart jumped, and a drop of cold sweat fell on his forehead. He decisively changed his words and said My immature judgment "maybe it is the material for making some kind of high-end puppet, or it may be some kind of hole card prepared by the third Kazekage. In short, it may need to consume a lot of materials."

"A high-end puppet." Thinking of the fight with Monzaemon four years ago, and thinking of this war, the other party has never appeared, Shirataki couldn't help wondering if Monzaemon had died of old age?
However, if according to Nara Shikaji's guess, Sand Yin is really making some kind of "killer puppet", or some kind of "powerful weapon". Then at Chiyo's level, he is capable of producing something that threatens him ?
Shaking his head, Shirataki resolutely chose not to think about these unreasonable things. As Nara Kaji said, there are too many possibilities, and guessing out of thin air is just a waste of time.But in the end, there was a piece of information that Shirataki was sure of. The Third Kazekage was probably holding back some big move, and for this reason, a lot of unknown materials were consumed.

If combined with Sagakushi's change of previous combat style and active sneak attack on his own transport troops, Shirataki believes that there is a high probability that the third Kazekage is almost ready and wants to provoke a decisive battle first.

Thinking of this, Shirataki asked again, "Where's the intelligence department? Did you find anything?"

Hatake Sakumo didn't even think about it, so he replied, "Sagakushi has sent several teams into the territory of the Rain Country, and the target is the direction of the Rain Hidden Village. According to my judgment, the third Kazekage may have hooked up with Sanshoyu Hanzo We have come together with the intention of joining forces against us at some point in the future."

Because of the outbreak of the Shenyingqiu incident, Shayin and Yuyin signed an alliance treaty three or four years ago.But now that the war has been fought, Sanshoyu Hanzo has not shown much sincerity as an ally of Hidden Sand Village.

Of course, the same is true for Yan Yin and Han Zang.In this ninja world war that lasted more than four years, Yuyin's attitude can be said to be extremely negative. Most of the time, the rain ninjas just retreated within their own sphere of influence, and rarely attacked Konoha actively. There are very few.

Even under pressure, Sansho Hanzo participated in several large-scale battles between Iwagakure and Konoha, but his behavior was the same as that of most Urenin. In the end, Konoha Ninja, who was facing Hanzo, did not suffer much loss.

Over time, Yanyin and Konoha have sensed the attitude that Hanzo wants to show. The general summary is, if you hit you, I will just watch from the side.
