Tsunade's words made sense. Hatake Sakumo nodded slightly and said,"If we are alone at the moment, we will be very passive and must ask for help."

"Salamander Hanzo didn't show up before, but it's inevitable that he won't show up next time, we can't bet on that possibility."

Orochimaru added palely:"After two wars, the troops suffered heavy losses, and there are still a large number of wounded who need timely treatment."

"We need to send these ninjas back to the village as soon as possible."

Hatake Sakumo nodded, agreeing with what he said, and then summarized the battle situation, mentioned the needs at the end, and then had them taken back to the village.

After doing all this, he asked Mitarai Shishao,"How is Shinku? Is his injury stable?"

Mitarai Shishao said with a thankful look,"Fortunately, Chiyo's punch only made him lose his combat effectiveness, but didn't kill him."

"Otherwise, the situation will be even worse than it is now."

"That's good." Hatake Sakumo nodded."Let him go back to Konoha to recuperate."

"Yeah."Mitawashi Shisho breathed a sigh of relief. It would be better for Shinku to go back, as he couldn't help here.

This time when he met Chiyo, her terrifying strength made him suddenly wake up, and he secretly made up his mind to train hard and strive to break through to the Kage level as soon as possible.

"The Sand Ninja took the initiative to attack twice, and they were obviously confident. Although they didn't gain any advantage in both times, the Rain Ninja were still watching closely. We must not be careless. The patrol team has doubled recently."

Hatake Sakumo is not worried about the Sand Ninja, but about the Rain Country next to Konoha. Although the country is small and weak, it has a Salamander Hanzo.

According to the existing information, his strength is also a Kage-level ninja.

And now in the Konoha camp, he is the only Kage-level ninja.

Top combat power can often determine the outcome of a war. Konoha is now at a great disadvantage.

"Got it!"Everyone said in unison, except Jiraiya who was wrapped in bandages and couldn't speak.

Then Tsunade mentioned another tricky thing: that is, the Sand Ninja likes to use poison, and most of the casualties in Konoha are caused by poison.

"This is a problem, we can't always be like this."Hatake Sakumo lowered his head and thought. Orochimaru chuckled and said to Tsunade:"Tsunade, haven't you been studying medical ninjutsu? You should know something about poisons."

Hatake Sakumo's eyes lit up. Yes, there is an expert sitting here, why bother to go far away.

Facing the eyes of everyone, Tsunade said with a stiff upper lip:"Research is fine, but I am still needed on the front battlefield......."

Before she could finish, Hatake Sakumo interrupted her with a wave of his hand, giving her a reassurance.

"It's okay. The Sand Ninja just fought a battle, and the casualties are more than ours. They need to rest in a short time, so a major war should not break out during this period of time."

Hearing this, Tsunade no longer had any worries, so she readily agreed, and after preparing, she began to study the antidote. After a discussion, everyone dispersed and went about their own business.

And the Sand Ninja did just as they thought, quietly resting and licking their wounds, and waiting for reinforcements from the Rain Country.

After a period of peace, Konoha's reinforcements arrived, bringing two thousand ninjas, and Hoshino Kaede also sent Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo.

Both of them are at the level of Kage, and their arrival instantly wiped out the gap between the two sides.

Hatake Sakumo was overjoyed. He thought that sending one would be enough, but he didn't expect that Hoshino Kaede would send one more with a wave of his hand.

This enriched Konoha's top combat power

""Sakumo, thank you for holding on for so long." Sarutobi Hiruzen said kindly. Hatake

Sakumo quickly responded respectfully:"Elder Sarutobi, it's all for Konoha, it's not hard."

Normally, as the commander-in-chief, he has absolute power and does not need to be so respectful.

But because of Kaede Hoshino, Hatake Sakumo has known Sarutobi Hiruzen since he was a child, and they have close contacts and a close relationship. He is also an elder.

This is why Hatake Sakumo is so respectful. Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, indicating that this is not necessary: "You are the commander-in-chief, we will listen to you no matter what you do, and Lord Hokage sent us here just to avoid the gap in top combat power."

"We won't worry about the rest."Sarutobi Hiruzen put himself in a very upright position, without any intention of taking advantage of his seniority.

Even Danzo, who was silent on the side, acquiesced to his words.

They were at the peak of their strength, and they were not stupid. They knew what to touch and what not to touch.

Besides, they had to have the courage. Everyone in Konoha knew the temper of Hoshino Kaede.

If anyone dared to drag his feet on important matters, it would be like an old man eating arsenic - looking for death!

Hatake Sakumo naturally understood the deep meaning of his words, and his smile became even wider.

"Thank you, elders."

Since they have made it clear, I have to react as well.

After the two finished their conversation, they smiled at each other, understood each other instantly, and then changed the subject.

"During this period, according to the scouts, the Rain Ninja has arrived, and the Salamander Hanzo is expected to have arrived as well."

Yutarashi Shixiao was concise and concise, simplifying the information and picking out some important points.

"Hanzo? That guy is not simple."Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed."The Hokage mentioned this specifically before I left."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be curious. It was very rare for someone to be noticed by Hoshino Kaede.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't keep the secret any longer and told them what Hoshino Kaede had said.

"Hanzo, this man is a tyrant. He dared to risk offending Konoha and form an alliance with the Sand Ninja. He must be either very powerful or conceited."

"However, I am more inclined to the former. If I estimate his strength to be good, he is stronger than Hiruzen."

The original words were fully restored, and everyone present was stunned for a long time, and then everyone came back to their senses and took a breath of cold air.

Mitarashi Shishao smacked his lips and said,"Is it so terrifying? The teacher has never seen it, but he has such an evaluation. Are you lying to us?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped by Hatake Sakumo and glared at him.

"What are you talking about? Lord Hokage never jokes."

Hataki Sakumo still looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, hoping to get confirmation.

The always silent Danzo said,"There is not much information about Hanzo. We only know that he is good at using poison."

"If you can get the praise from the Hokage, it's definitely not for nothing, you must be careful."

It's rare to see Danzo so cautious, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Feeling Sarutobi Hiruzen's gaze, Danzo snorted and said dissatisfiedly

"Hiruzen, I won't stop for a moment. Intelligence is very important at any time."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head. After so many years, he still has the temper of a child. He always wants to compete with him.

When they heard about poison, everyone's eyes were focused on Tsunade again.

After all, the antidote in recent days was developed by Tsunade.
