The war lasted for more than a month, and the Iwagakure troops successfully invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Wind. The Sunagakure troops, relying on the geographical advantage, were evenly matched with the Iwagakure troops, and the war between the two sides fell into a stalemate.

At this moment, the Kirigakure troops who had been watching the border for a long time suddenly moved and attacked the rear of Sunagakure Village with a thunderous force. As a result, Sunagakure could not take care of both ends and suffered heavy losses. All troops retreated into Sunagakure Village. The troops of Iwagakure and Kirigakure, one from the south and the other from the north, surrounded Sunagakure Village heavily.

The Fourth Kazekage Luo Shaqianlu was so incompetent that he had no choice but to send an envoy with the promise of huge profits and risk his life to fight his way out of the siege and come to Konoha for help.

So, the Third Hokage summoned the jounin in the village to discuss the matter. Although I was only a special jounin, I was fortunate enough to participate in the meeting.

"Do you think we should send reinforcements to rescue Sunagakure?" The Third Hokage asked calmly while smoking a cigarette.

There was a lot of noise down there, talking about anything.

"No, no, no, we have fought with Sunagakure before, and many people died!" a jounin shouted.

"Yes, yes, why save them? Let them fend for themselves." Another jounin agreed.

"This is all in the past, I think it's better to save him, just in time to gain some bargaining chips." Another jounin said.

Everyone expresses his or her own opinion, but no one can convince anyone.

"Everyone be quiet, everyone listen to me!" Nara Shikaku stood up, coughed and said: "It turns out that the five major ninja villages are evenly matched and restrict each other. No one can destroy the other. If Sunagakure is suddenly destroyed, Iwagakure will be destroyed again. Forming an alliance with Kirigakure, and Kumogakure's relationship with us is not good, will definitely be detrimental to Konoha. Therefore, I think we should send troops to save Sunagakure. This is also to save ourselves. Sunagakure's existence can also help control Iwa Hiding will do us all good and nothing bad."

Everyone fell silent after Nara Shikaku's words, everyone understood the stakes involved.

"Black Sound, what do you think?" Kakashi asked me in a low voice.

"My lips are dead and my teeth are cold." I said every word. In fact, Sunagakure's life and death has nothing to do with us, but what Nara Shikaku said is very reasonable. If Sunagakure is destroyed, with Konoha's current strength, it will be difficult to fight against any two villages joining forces, and Konoha and San The relationship between the villages is not very good.

On Kirigakure's side, in the border conflict, we killed seven Kirigakure people; on Kumogakure's side, we tried to steal the glare but failed, and it was unpleasant; on Iwagakure's side, things were fine, but I killed Iwagakure back then. There are many genin hiding, including the good seedling who broke through the blood succession limit. I'm afraid they will hold a grudge. Therefore, as long as any two of their villages join forces to attack Konoha, the remaining village will not only not support them, but may actually add insult to injury, and Konoha will be in danger by then.

"What Shikaku said makes sense. We must support Sunagakure. Do you have any objections?" the Third Hokage said.

There was silence below.

"In this case, then, I order!"

Everyone stood up, waiting for the Third Hokage's order.

"Konoha will send reinforcements to support Sunagakure Village. All ANBU divisions will allocate manpower. Those selected among jounin will be incorporated into the army. The rest will stay in the village. During the war, all unimportant tasks will be stopped to prevent criminals from invading the village. .The list of ninjas participating in the battle will be announced by the General Staff later."

"Yes!"

Half an hour later, the staff drew up a list of ninjas to go into battle, selecting about a hundred jounin, and more than three hundred chuunin to go for reinforcements, led by Kakashi and Nara Shikaku.

Since Kakashi has to command the entire army, I will temporarily command the ANBU unit. It is worth mentioning that because there were not enough medical ninjas, Koyuki was sent to my team to temporarily serve as a medical ninja. Shisui and several other chunin were also sent, one of whom was Aburame Shi Kurenai is an old acquaintance. He participated in the finals of the same Chuunin Examination as me and fought against Gekko Hayate and won. Since Itachi had just been promoted to Chunin not long after the Chunin Exams ended, he did not participate in this battle.

After all, I was going to the battlefield, so I was still very worried about Xiaoxue's safety, but fortunately Xiaoxue could follow me, and I was confident in protecting her. If that didn't work, I could use the Flying Thunder God to take her away.

Originally, I proposed to use the Flying Thunder God to teleport directly to Sunagakure Village, but the Third Hokage refused for the following reasons.

1. Sand Hidden Village has been surrounded by groups. Teleporting to Sand Hidden Village is detrimental to combat and is equivalent to death.

2. The sudden appearance from inside Sunagakure Village is equivalent to telling Sunagakure that we have placed an undercover agent here, which is not conducive to future work.

3. Sneak attacks on Iwagakure and Kirigakure's troops from behind will help expand the results and win at the minimum cost.

4. The Flying Thunder God can only bring a limited number of people at a time. It takes more than ten round trips to bring the entire army there, which consumes the caster's chakra, is too troublesome, and delays the fighter's opportunity.

So, we just walked quickly to Sunagakure Village, hoping that Sunagakure Village would wait until we arrived.

After driving for a long time, we finally arrived at the border. Beyond that was the vast Gobi desert.

"Everyone, please work harder. We will arrive at Sand Hidden Village soon!" I encouraged others while running.

After running in the Gobi for two hours, everyone couldn't stand the heat anymore. I built a shed using earth escape to let everyone drink some water and rest for a while.

After resting, I took out a map from my backpack and spread it out on the table made by Tudun.

"The mission we received is to go along the border of the Kingdom of Wind, bypass Iwagakure's troops, cross to the border of the Kingdom of Water, cut off the supply line of the Kirigakure troops, put pressure on them to run out of food, and force them to retreat. Everyone. Everyone has clearly set their mission."

"Hyuuga Tora, Akimichi Choiro, Yamashiro Aoki, Tenzou, Uchiha Snow, Uchiha Shisui, Yamanaka Haruka, Inuzuka Kane, Aburame Shihong." I counted the number of people, "There are six of us now. Jonin, four chuunin, if you encounter Iwagakure's interception force on the road, leave a few people to hold them back, and the rest will continue to rush to the destination to ensure that the mission is completed, is there any problem?"

"no!"

"Okay, let's rest for another five minutes and set off."

"There's someone!" Shancheng Qingshu suddenly shouted. His perception ability is very strong. As long as someone approaches within a few hundred meters, he can immediately detect it.

"Lan Dun, Black Madara!" I threw a ninjutsu in the direction Aoki was looking at.

An enemy was hit by me as soon as he appeared and died on the spot.

"It's Iwagakure's troops!" Hyugatora shouted.

"I didn't expect to see black lightning here, Hatake Kurone, you are so lucky. Let's see if you live up to your fame!" a ninja from Iwagakure mocked.

I looked around and saw that we were surrounded by about thirty ninjas from Iwagakure.
