I am the strongest Hokage of all time

"Ninjas usually fight in two forms in war."

"The first is a small-scale form of a four-person team, with investigation and harassment as the main tasks."

"The second is the form of a large-scale ninja army, usually led by the top combatants of each village to conduct group operations."

Everyone understood these two points very clearly.

Because that's what war was like during the Warring States Period.

Normally, ninja teams from each family fight on the front lines.

Behind them are a large number of ninjas and supplies.

Once a certain party obtains intelligence advantage or battlefield advantage through small team operations.

At this time, the ninja army will come out in full force.

Both sides engaged in a large-scale war.

In the ninja world, fighting with thousands or tens of thousands of ninjas is considered a large-scale battle.

It's no wonder that Naruto is nicknamed the Five Villages.

Hiruzen continued, "Special operations is somewhere in between."

"The number ranges from a dozen to dozens of people."

"Such a scale will not easily be discovered by the enemy, and at the same time it can form a powerful combat force."

"This unit can crush enemy ninja squads early in the battle."

"At the same time, it can also be used as a tactical interlude in the war, and can carry out surprise attacks deep behind enemy lines to achieve unexpected tactical effects."

Tobirama thought for a while and then said: "Your idea is good."

"But this has not been tested in actual combat."

"In this way, I will give you an establishment of 70 people."

"You come and organize what you call a special operations force."

"After training, the village will conduct simulated actual combat with them."

"If after actual combat, your troops successfully demonstrate the actual combat value you mentioned."

"I will officially approve the establishment of this unit."

Hiruzen didn't realize that he was just making a suggestion.

Tobirama immediately handed over the special operations forces into his own hands.

This shows Tobirama's trust in Hiruzen.

This also aroused opposition from some jounin.

After all, Hiruzen was young and had little experience.

However, Tobirama persisted in his decision despite these objections.

If Hiruzen passes the village's simulated actual combat, then Hiruzen will use this unit to rise to the top of the village.

Become an important figure in the village.

At the same time, Hiruzen's other two proposals were also adopted by Tobirama.

Hiruzen vaguely felt that Tobirama had begun to build momentum for him.

Hiruzen promised Tobirama: "I will definitely live up to Hokage-sama's expectations."

.............................................

Tobirama only gave Hiruzen a temporary establishment of 70 people.

Everything else needed Hiruzen to organize.

Including but not limited to personnel, training venues, equipment, and office space.

Hiruzen had to pay for all this out of his own pocket.

The first thing to solve is the personnel problem.

The establishment of 70 people, excluding the captain and vice-captain.

Can be divided into four 17-man squads.

The first thing Hiruzen dealt with was the choice of deputy minister.

Hiruzen went to Hatake Kiyoshi's home.

He pulled Qingzhi outside and said quietly: "Qingzhi, you don't want your wife and children to know about the last time you secretly went to the bookstore to read pornographic books, right?"

Kiyoshi's eyes widened and he quickly covered Hiruzen's mouth.

Explained: "I picked up the wrong book."

Hiruzen looked like he understood.

Qingzhi reluctantly let go of his hand and asked, "Tell me, what are your requirements?"

Hiruzen waved his hand and said, "Nothing, I just want you to be the deputy captain of the special forces team."

"Special Forces?"

Kiyoshi asked confused.

Hiruzen then explained the whole story to Kiyoshi.

Because Kiyoshi was away on a mission during the last Jonin meeting.

After hearing this, Kiyoshi agreed to Hiruzen's request.

Hiruzen left with satisfaction.

Kiyoshi looked at Hiruzen's leaving figure.

Kiyoshi was once Hiruzen's examiner for the Chunin Exam.

In just eight years, Hiruzen was able to serve as his boss.

Kiyoshi marveled at Hiruzen's talent and strength.

"By the way, that book also taught me a lot of postures."

Qingzhi suddenly remembered the book with a very attractive cover that he suddenly saw in the bookstore last time.

I picked it up and took a look.

As a result, Hiruzen saw it.

Kiyoshi shook his head and walked home with a smile.

Hiruzen had already thought about the candidate for the squad leader.

The leader of the first team, Dango Shimura.

Captain of the second team, Uchiha Mirror.

The captain of the third detachment, Akimichi Kaifeng.

The leader of the fourth team, Mito Monobu.

Basically, several people who were familiar with Hiruzen joined Hiruzen's special forces team.

But there are exceptions.

Senju Shigeru has joined the ANBU directly under the Hokage.

Therefore, you can no longer join the special forces team.

There is also Koharu, who was transferred to the medical ninja unit by Tobirama because of his excellent medical ninjutsu ability.

The vice-captain and squad leader have been confirmed.

The next step is to recruit players.

Team members are selected from Konoha's chuunin and special jounin.

Recruiting team members cannot be done by posting small advertisements on the roadside.

Hiruzen went to Tobirama and got the list of Konoha's chunin and special jounin.

Pick one by one.

If you are chosen, you will write an invitation in person.

Finally the number of people was gathered.

Among the team members, Hiruzen knew many of them.

Several classmates who were in the same class as Hiruzen.

Hinata Shin, joined the second team as a special jounin.

Kishibe Suke and Kato Sora are also in the second team, but they are only chunin.

There is also Maruboshi Kosuke, who is only 13 years old and has become a special jounin and joined the first team.

Two of his teammates, Takeshi Inuzuka and Yui Ishihara, also joined the first team as chunin.

There is also Uchiha Iwabi. In the past two years, Uchiha Iwaba opened the double Magatama Sharingan.

His strength has risen to the level of an elite chuunin.

Therefore, Hiruzen took a fancy to him and let him join the fourth team.

Although Iwa is one year older than Shigeru, he is already 22.

But the strength is much weaker.

Talent seems to be really mediocre now.

It can be seen that the candidates chosen by Hiruzen are more youthful.

This was not actually Hiruzen's intention.

It's just because Hiruzen himself is young.

Therefore, those older ninjas are not very willing to become Hiruzen's subordinates.

What's more, the so-called Konoha Special Operations Force led by Hiruzen has not yet been officially established in the village.

It looked like a child playing.

As everyone knows, the reputation of the Konoha Special Forces will resound throughout the ninja world in future ninja wars.

However, the current Konoha Special Forces team looks really crude.

The temporary wages in the village are very low.

In order to retain talents, Hiruzen had no choice but to subsidize himself.

Fortunately, Hiruzen is the eldest son of the patriarch of the Sarutobi clan.

I still have savings.

And he often went to the retired Hashirama to gamble and make extra money.

It's enough to subsidize the team members' wages.

In addition to funding, space is also a problem.

Hiruzen used his connections to buy an open space on the edge of Konoha.

It was transformed into a station and training ground for special forces.

In terms of equipment, Hiruzen also put a lot of effort into it.

The team uniforms were customized at the largest tailor shop in Konoha.

The team uniform is a uniform black combat uniform with a windbreaker.

The trench coats of the captain and vice-captain are white. The captain has fire patterns printed on both sleeves, and the vice-captain has fire patterns printed on one sleeve.

The trench coats of the squad leader and team members are black, but the difference is that there are fire patterns printed on the back of the squad leader's trench coat.

There are only numbers representing the team on the back of the team members' windbreakers.
