The night is like water and the stars are bright.
There was only the hissing sound of Shukaku in the air. It seemed to be very interested in the sake in Chen's hand, always wanting to get closer and take a sip.
Shengshu sat on a small stool and sighed softly: "It would be great if the war could end as soon as possible."
When he was young, what Naoshu wanted to go to the most was the battlefield, but as he grew older, what he hated the most was the battlefield.
Chen took a sip of sake, which tasted more like a drink, and then handed it to Shukaku.
"It's not easy, but now that we have won this battle, we have something to think about. It shouldn't be long before peace."
Naoki smiled and said, "That's right. Iwa Ninja Commander Lao Zi has been captured, and the Third Tsuchikage probably won't be able to hold on for long."
He continued with emotion: "I haven't seen my sister for a long time. If everything goes well, we should be able to join forces with her soon, right?"
Chen nodded.
He stood up, walked to a place with a slightly wider view, and looked up at the Land of Grass.
…
…
The country of grass, where Konoha resides.
Just like the residence in the Earth Kingdom, it fell into silence after midnight.
During the day, they had a big battle with Iwagakure. Both sides suffered heavy losses and then fell into a confrontation.
This kind of confrontation has happened more than once. For Konoha, the war in this war zone is not going so smoothly.
This is understandable.
The war in the Kingdom of Grass did not start too early, it started a little later than the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Water.
By the time the Third Tsuchikage declared war, a large part of Konoha's forces were contained in the Kingdom of Wind.
At this time, the Kingdom of Thunder is also watching closely and waiting for danger, and the military strength of Yunyin Village is also the strongest among the four major countries, so the number of troops that can be allocated to the Kingdom of Grass is extremely limited.
In this situation of lack of personnel, the Third Hokage sent his son Sarutobi Shinnosuke to take over the position of commander of Grass Country.
In Shinnosuke's army, in addition to the civilian ninjas, there are ninjas from large families, with the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan being the most numerous.
The Sarutobi clan is easy to understand. This is Shinnosuke's own clan. As expected, he will definitely inherit the position of clan leader. With the help of the clan elders, he will not make any serious mistakes on the front line anyway.
But it's surprising that there is a Shimura clan under Shinno's assistant.
Of course, this was not a random fate of the Third Hokage, but Danzo, the head of the Shimura clan, took the initiative to entrust it to him.
When Danzo resolutely sent his clan members to the battlefield and entrusted them to Shinnosuke, this made the Third Hokage excited for a long time.
He just held Danzo's hand and sang: "We will be together forever as gay friends. Those days will no longer exist. In one sentence, for a lifetime, a glass of wine, and a lifetime of love!"
Of course, when Danzo did this, he didn't really care for his gay friend's son, nor did he treat Shinnosuke as his "godson".
There are two reasons for this.
First, he himself is a commander in the Kingdom of Tang. If his tribe is in his hands, he must set an example and send his tribe members to the most dangerous places in order to show fairness.
But since the clan members are not around, other clans have nothing to question him about which clan he wants to die on a dangerous battlefield.
Later facts proved that this was indeed the case. Also on the battlefield of Grass Country, although Shinnosuke was the commander, the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan suffered much greater losses than other clans.
Second, why did Danzo enter the battlefield? Wouldn't it be better to stay in the village with the elders
Not just to become Hokage!
Therefore, Danzo is in urgent need of a lot of military exploits.
But Danzo is still self-aware, or as a conspirator, he naturally likes to make several plans.
He himself can earn military merits in the Kingdom of Tang, and his clan members can also earn military merits if they win in the Kingdom of Grass.
This is the military exploits of two war zones, which are definitely more dazzling than those of one war zone!
Of course, they can also be sent to other battlefields. But Danzo was always too reassured, what if it was delivered to Orochimaru, a gloomy guy who treated all the ninjas in his family as human heads and sent them away.
But Shinnosuke was different. The relationship between the two families meant that Shinnosuke would try his best to protect the Shimura clan, at least without causing any obstacles.
Moreover, he is the son of the Sandaime after all. No matter how selfless Sarutobi Hiruzen is, he will not be able to provide less support to the Land of Grass, right
Isn’t this military exploit for nothing
It's a pity that Danzo never expected that he himself would be trapped in the battlefield of Yu Country, and the war in Grass Country has not improved yet.
There are many reasons for this.
But the most important thing is that the Kingdom of Water was defeated too quickly!
Under the chain reaction, Onoki felt nervous, so he removed the ninjas who were originally defending Kumogakure Village to support the battlefield.
For a time, the originally stalemate situation in the Country of Grass was reversed in an instant.
It wasn't until Tsunade led three thousand ninjas to the Country of Grass that the war here began to improve slightly.
…
…
Inside the Konoha station, the lights were bright, and Tsunade, who had finished the operation, walked into the tent with a tired look on her face.
Nonou is in the country of earth, and Kana is in the country of soup.
Without the help of her disciples, Tsunade, as the most powerful medical ninja on the front line, has to shoulder heavy responsibilities even if she is the commander. After meetings every day, she spends most of her time in the hospital.
After walking into the tent, the little fox Kushina was putting her head with her hands, dozing off little by little.
The red hair on the temples was wet and stuck to the crimson cheeks. It looked like he had just taken a shower.
It is necessary to pay attention to cleanliness on the battlefield, because the fighting took place during the day, and almost everyone was stained with blood. If you do not pay attention to hygiene, it is easy to bring germs.
Fortunately, there are water escape ninjas stationed at the station, so Konoha has no shortage of water at all.
Tsunade moved a chair and sat down opposite Kushina.
She picked up a document that she had not read during the day, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the little girl who was wearing a jounin vest and did not look like a jounin.
Even Tsunade was a little surprised. Kushina was a little hasty at first, but now she is very adaptable. She has made great progress with each passing day. She is simply a born ninja.
But think about it, Kushina experienced war when she was a child. Even if that memory slowly fades over time, how can she really forget it completely.
Perhaps it was the sound of Tsunade moving the chair, or the powerful perception of the Uzumaki clan, but Kushina quickly woke up from her nap.
"Sister Tsunade, are you back?" Kushina hadn't woken up from her sleep yet, rubbing her eyes. "Is it already morning? I'll prepare breakfast for you."
She stood up and prepared to walk outside.
Tsunade held her forehead and said helplessly: "It's still night, where are you going to prepare breakfast?"
"Oh." Kushina tried her best to pat her cheek before waking up from her sleep.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Tsunade asked softly.
"I'm waiting for you."
"It's so late and you're still waiting for me?"
Although Tsunade's tone was reproachful, her heart was still sweet.
I didn't sleep all night, so I stayed up all night, waiting for myself to come back... It's really nice to have such a loving sister.
At least it's better than Naoshu's heartless brother!
Although he obviously had a psychic beast, he didn't send a few letters. Even if he did send letters, he would always send money as usual.
Do I, Tsunade, lack your money? !
Well...it's really lacking.
Tsunade said softly: "Don't wait for me next time. Staying up late is not good for your skin. Although you care about me, sister..."
But Kushina yawned and said: "No, didn't you say that? There is a battle report from the Land of Earth, let me wait for you tonight.
Otherwise I would have gone to bed long ago. "
