"Suo Mao asked for additional staff, what do you think?"

In the meeting room in the Hokage Building, the third Hokage Hiruzaru Sarutobi mentioned Sakumo's request for additional manpower.

"With his strength, isn't it enough to deal with the lurking enemies in the Land of Fire?"

The consultant turned to bed and Xiaochun frowned, obviously not satisfied with Shuo Mao's request for additional manpower.

"The opponents are two elite junin from the Sand Hidden Puppet Troop. There are three other jnin in the team, and one of them can use the large-scale earth dungeon technique."

"But there is no direct evidence to prove that it is a ninja from Yanyin Village."

Xiaochun said.

Ri Zhan shook the pipe in his hand, and said, "I don't think Onoki will do nothing at this time, and we can't make a conclusion on this matter just because there is no task change in Yanyin Village."

"According to what you said, Yunyin and Wuyin are also heavily suspected."

Advisor Mito Menyan took a look at Hirizan.

"So when the Three Kazekages left, I was in charge of the village, just to prevent other villages from getting involved and making the battlefield even more chaotic."

"Then what are you going to do? We at the Uchiha Guard can't trust us. Danzo is not in the village at this time leading Genbu to carry out secret missions. It is already an extremely risky thing for us to use Anbu from two teams to stay in the village."

Menyan's eyes reveal the meaning of inquiry.

"Men Yan is right. In the past, no matter how critical it was, he would stay with the Anbu of the three teams. Now only the Anbu of the two teams is left, which is a gamble in itself."

Xiaochun also has no sense of trust in Uchiha.

"Uchiha is also a member of Konoha, we shouldn't be prejudiced against them, they are members of Kagami's clan."

Ri Zhan continued to puff out a smoke ring with a solemn expression.

Handing over the management of the security team to the Uchiha clan was an arrangement made by his late teacher, the second generation of Hokage Senju Tobima.

There are many reasons for this. On the one hand, it is out of fear, and on the other hand, it wants to limit Uchiha's power to the garrison.

Because only the Uchiha clan has the ability to do the job of the security team.

The work problems of the Uchiha Guard are remarkable. Although there are indeed some people with abnormal brains who like to cause trouble, there are also some Uchiha ninjas who really want to maintain Konoha's internal security.

Ri Zhan felt that he couldn't beat everyone to death with a single stick.

Besides, his teacher also wanted to fully integrate the Uchiha clan into Konoha instead of excluding them.

It's a pity that when the first Ninja World War broke out, his teacher died on the battlefield, which caused Uchiha's affairs to end.

All these years we can only waste.

With the efforts of his Hokage, the relationship has indeed been eased, but there is not much substantial progress.

"Mirrors are mirrors, and Uchihas are Uchihas. They exist at different levels. Among the Uchihas, there are not a few Uchiha ninjas who inherit Uchiha Madara's radical thinking. People of this family are all potentially dangerous."

After all, the consultants don't believe in Uchiha, or in other words, they don't believe in the Uchiha ninja who possesses the power to curse and awaken Sharingan.

"Then make a compromise and divide into two squads of Anbu. Only by getting rid of the rats in the Land of Fire can Shuomo go to the battlefield and counterattack Sand Yin."

"But..."

"If there is anything unusual about Uchiha, I will personally take action to resolve the chaos, so that you can rest assured."

Ri Zhan had an inviolable and powerful aura, and even Men Yan and Xiao Chun felt unprecedented oppression.

This also tells Menyan and Xiaochun in disguise that with him as Hokage, no matter what happens to Uchiha, he will stay on the site honestly, doing what the security team should do, and there will never be any problems.

This kind of self-confidence from the bottom of his heart was deeply written on Ri Zhan's face.

"Since you have said so, Ri Zhan, then you have to do so."

"You must not be careless about Uchiha's affairs. They are inherently evil, and they must always be on guard."

In the end, Menyan and Xiaochun still reminded Hizhan, and then put aside the question about Uchiha for the time being.

"In addition, the supply from the village to the front line is insufficient. Xiaochun and I need to go to the Daming Mansion to discuss with the Daming and collect supplies there."

Men Yan and Xiao Chun looked at each other, and Men Yan spoke.

"Lack of supplies again?"

Ri Zhan stopped smoking.

"Yes, medical supplies are the most scarce here, but there are enough military food pills and ninja tools."

"Go early and return early."

Any ninja needs a handwritten letter from Hokage to leave the village. Even a consultant must get a handwritten letter from Hokage before they can leave the village.

Men Yan and Xiaochun got the written letter from Ri Zhan that they could leave the village, and left the conference room.

◎

A sentry point in the north of Konoha, guarded by about twenty Konoha ninjas, can be used as a temporary supply station for Sakumo's team.

Fortunately, there is a simple infirmary inside this outpost.

Shiraishi carried the seriously injured Konoha ninja found in another sentry point on his back, and entered the new sentry point infirmary to rest.

Although he still looks like he is not awake, he is out of danger, which is a blessing in misfortune.

Liuli and Ayane negotiated with the Konoha ninja at the sentry point, getting supplies, food, water, and medical supplies were the top priorities.

Not long after, Baishi and the others got ready.

Shuo Mao put away the scroll in his hand and said: "There is good news. Hokage-sama has agreed to send additional helpers. He is an expert in investigation. But we can't relax here. Now that the supplies are ready, let's go straight away."

"yes!"

Baishi and the others agreed, and followed Shuo Mao to act again.

They are currently in the southern central region of the Land of Fire, and the next route they will follow is to head to the east of the Land of Fire.

It is adjacent to the neighboring country of Yuno, a country famous for its hot springs.

If it's not during the war, you can go there to enjoy it. As for now, the task is still the most important.

After patrolling for two days in a row, they didn't notice anything unusual, not even the shadow of the sand hermit ninja.

However, considering that this is the hinterland of the Land of Fire, the sand hidden ninjas should not be so stupid as to cause damage here. Of course, with the mentality of just in case, the serious Sakumo will not let go of a region.

On the third day, when the supplies in the backpack were gone, they went to the nearest Konoha Sentinel to get new supplies.

"It's amazing for you to come out at such a young age to carry out such a dangerous mission with Sakumo Jonin."

The captain at this sentry point is a well-known jounin from Konoha, a mature man in his thirties. Seeing the immature faces of the three of Shiraishi, he sighed with emotion.

"In fact, our help is very small, and we often need Teacher Shuo Mao to take care of us."

Baishi maintained a humble attitude. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"I know Sakumo Jonin's character. If you don't get his approval, he will never violate his principles and bring you on such a dangerous mission. In other words, your strength has made him approve. He is such a man who cherishes his companions."

This Konoha Kamijino seems to have recalled what he said.

"Senior, do you know Mr. Shuo Mao?"

"We performed missions together before. At that time, he looked cold, but he was actually a very gentle person, and he was easily shy. To the enemy, he was the cold-blooded and ruthless Konoha Baiya. To his own people, he was a companion worth putting his back on."

"It turns out that Teacher Shuo Mao was such a person in the past. I can't tell."

Maybe it's because she has grown a lot in these years, so she can't see Shuo Mao's shy side.

Baishi and the others could only guess like this.

"Tianzhu, what strange things are you instilling in my students?"

Shuo Mao came over at this time.

"It's just about some ninja experience as a senior." Tianzhu Shangren said.

"By the way, this guy is a pervert."

Shuo Mao suddenly said this.

Liuli and Ayane cast a vigilant look at Tianzhu Shangren for an instant, and stepped back.

"Hello!"

Tentake Shinobu blushed.

"—especially for men."

Baishi saw that Tianzhu Shangren was closest to him, and the smile on his face froze.

Liuli and Ayane breathed a sigh of relief, then everything will be fine.

At this moment, a blood-stained Konoha ninja suddenly ran out from another piece of thick grass at the sentry point. After running a few steps, he fell down with serious injuries.

"Be careful, there are... enemies..."
