Naruto Neji: I can see chakra!

"In fact, I was awakened from my sleep last night. A ninja from the Iwagakure Village came to my bedside. His aura was undoubtedly that of a jonin! The ninja from the Iwagakure Village brought a handwritten letter from the Third Tsuchikage, the Great Ninja Ohnoki, telling me to relax. He was just waiting for us to be sanctioned and attacked by Konoha Village. Because at this time we have taken the initiative to declare that we have become nobles of the Land of Earth, and our entire territory including our population is part of the Land of Earth, then if Konoha Village sends ninjas to sanction and attack us, it would be an attack on and invasion of the Land of Earth! It would be trampling on the face of the Iwagakure Village! In that case, we would have an excuse for war! The Daimyo of the Land of Earth would not hinder us and would instead support the Iwagakure Village in sending troops!"

At this moment, the knowledgeable and experienced Masakazu Kumagai was suddenly startled. He looked uncertainly at the head of the family in front of him, Taro Kumagai, and made a gesture.

"Could it be... already...?"

Kumagai Masaichi turned his head and looked around. While speaking only with his voice, he gently pointed twice around the study.

As soon as Taro Kumagai saw the action and expression of his trusted subordinate, he knew what he meant.

"Are the Iwagakure ninjas lying in ambush around here?" Kumagai Masakazu didn't say anything, but his eyes wanted to convey this message.

After decades of supporting each other, a glance is enough for both sides to communicate.

"Yeah!" Taro Kumagai's eyes flashed with a look of "of course" and he nodded heavily. At the same time, he stretched out one hand and gestured the number two, and then opened and closed the five fingers of both hands, indicating that they were added together.

2+10=12!

Twelve ninjas from the Iwagakure Village are lurking somewhere around the Kumagaya clan's residence.

As for why he had to gesture like this, you have to ask Taro Kumagai himself.

"call--"

The patriarch of the Kumagai clan, Shoichi Kumagai, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This means that at this time, the Kumagai clan had gathered one or two or more teams of Iwagakure Village Anbu ninjas in a dark and invisible corner. Their purpose was to seize "direct evidence of Konoha Village's invasion of the Land of Earth territory - now the Kumagai clan" and then directly defeat the Konoha Village ninjas with three times the number of ninjas and arrest and interrogate them on the spot!

All evidence was then preserved and transmitted to the Iwagakure Village headquarters in the rear.

Then, the excuse for sending troops, with witnesses and evidence!

I have to say, this plan is extremely shameless, and very much in the style of the Third Tsuchikage, Ohnoki!

He is just like that. He allows all kinds of cunning, shame, and dark schemes. He advocates and tries to implement them.

As long as it can strengthen the Land of Earth and benefit the ninjas of the Iwagakure Village, the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, will do anything, no matter what the plan is, positive or negative, or what consequences it will have on the executors.

What's even better is that his management model is naturally suitable for the customs and habits of the Earth Kingdom.

Although the Land of Earth has nothing particularly good or bad, it has the world's best legion-level cooperation capabilities and the best teamwork strategy of using the majority to defeat the minority in the ninja world.

The ninjas of the Iwagakure Village like best to crush other ninja villages with their absolute advantage in numbers.

Now, it's the same.

……

In a dim space around the Kumagai clan's residence, a group of people were squatting, half-lying or standing up together, each with their eyes closed, resting and regulating and refining their chakra.

Some people gathered together out of boredom, playing cards for fun under the dim lights on the wall.

But no matter what they were doing, everyone was talking to the minimum, and there was no sound that was even slightly loud enough for more than three people to hear.

Quiet.

The only thing in common was that they all wore a special Anbu standard mask on their faces, which did not display the Konoha emblem of Konoha Village, but a pattern of several rocks piled together.

In addition, the red ninja robes that can be seen under the Anbu plate armor on them make their identities clear: they are the main force of the Anbu ninja unit of the Iwagakure Village.

After a rough count, the number of people actually reached 12.

The configuration of three teams.

It has reached the size of a squadron of the Iwagakure Village!

Judging from their clothes, they don't look like Genin.

And judging from its chaotic yet orderly atmosphere, it is considered a very strong war unit even in the Iwagakure Village where there are a large number of ninjas.

Now they have been sent to this small territory of the Kumagaya clan in the Land of Fire. Their purpose is obvious.

"Gōtō, the boss asked us to wait here. Will there really be ninjas from the Hidden Leaf Village coming up to die?" A thin Anbu from the Hidden Leaf Village pondered for a moment and casually asked the leader who was resting with his eyes closed next to him.

For the Anbu ninjas of the Iwagakure Village, their real names sound very much like code names, so they don't need to go through the trouble of coming up with other code names to hide their identities.

Moreover, since the Iwagakure Village is relatively closed, with the help of the numerous mountains in the Land of Earth and the large number of ninjas, the reputation of the top strong men is rarely heard.

Because what the Iwagakure Village is proud of is their will of stone that is as united as rock, rather than one or two ninjas with the strength of Kage.

On the battlefield, with such a united Iwagakure Village, even the Kage-level ninjas from Konoha Village would generally have a headache fighting against them.

Because you can only confront it head-on, you can't take shortcuts.

Of course. If you insist on talking about the deeds of a yellow-haired man in Konoha Village, it would be difficult to tell. This yellow-haired man is an exception.

It must be said that the yellow-haired man treated all the ninjas equally, even the jonin - all the ninjas with strength below the Kage level, no matter how many there were. He would just stab them with a kunai, and then the light of his yellow hair would shine all over the place. Every opponent who was his enemy would have a bloody hole on their neck, and it would be game over.

And now, there is no other yellow-haired person to disturb the Kumagai clan and Iwagakure Village in their current business.

"Hongshi, are you questioning the wisdom of the Tsuchikage-sama?" Gangtu looked normal, without opening his eyes. He was still resting with his eyes closed, thinking in a daze, but with the corners of his mouth twitching, he expressed his thoughts in a barely perceptible manner.

When he heard the words "Tsuchikage-sama", Hongshi's whole body shuddered.

Coupled with the word "doubt" uttered by his leader, he was even more shocked.

Hongshi's face changed drastically, and through the Anbu ninja mask that surrounded him, his companions around him could sense the panic on his face.
