Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 471 Two Years ([-])

On May 36th, Konoha 5, ​​in the eastern part of Kawano Country.

Among the rolling mountains, somewhere in the middle of a relatively flat mountain, deep in the dense forest...

A large open space was artificially opened up, filled with dense white tents, roughly counting, at least a thousand or so.

If you look down from a high altitude, these white tents are located in the forest like stars, and under the breeze, flags embroidered with leaf patterns flutter in the wind.

Here is Konoha's current camp area.

Because the war was going smoothly and the battle line was constantly advancing, Lei Luo finally set up the camp here after several relocations.

Today, the location of the Konoha camp has not been moved for almost a year.

And this is far from the situation of changing every ten days or every month in the early days. It seems that Konoha's offensive against Sand Yin has been frustrated.

However, the Konoha ninjas who have personally experienced various large and small battles did not have this idea.

All Konoha ninjas now basically believe that their commander, Lord Lei Luo, is a person with an extremely conservative combat style.

Personality... I guess it is also a very stable type.

There is no other reason for this kind of thinking, but the strategy adopted by Lei Luo... is really too cautious, as if afraid of Sha Yin's conspiracy.

From an ideal situation, based on the comparison of the current combat power of the two sides, it is not impossible for Konoha to beat Sha Yin back to the land of the wind, and even go further, but the reality is...

The Hidden Sand War, which could have ended long ago, has dragged on for more than two years.

Moreover, it seems that it is not known how long they will continue to fight.

Although the big and small battles have never stopped, neither Konoha or Sagakure, Lei Luo or Sandai Kazekage, both sides have no intention of starting a decisive battle, and the scale of the war has always been maintained at a relatively low level.

Lei Luo is naturally busy training his subordinates, and at the same time secretly purging some of the guys who are against him, and absorbing outstanding talents from the ninja army to join his camp, constantly expanding his power and influence in the ninja army.

As for the Anbu who were in charge of monitoring, as well as some of the spies lurking in the main force - Sarutobi Hiruzen, they were either eliminated or controlled by Lei Luo a year ago.

After all, a year ago, Hyuga-Huan just arrived, and Lei Luo entrusted him with full authority to take charge of the matter, and Hyuga-Huan seemed to have done a good job, neither wronging a "good guy" nor letting a "bad guy" go.

No one's small movements could escape his eyes.

As for Sand Yin, since the third Kazekage vaguely grasped Lei Luo's true intentions, he also tacitly cooperated with Lei Luo to fight this faintly sour war together.

On the surface, Sagakushi seems to have softened, but in fact, the third Kazekage has been accumulating strength, waiting for the best opportunity to give Lei Luo a head-on blow.

All the masters of the older generation in Hidden Sand Village took their positions in secret one after another, including Monzaemon, wind erosion, drought, and some old patriarchs of the ninja clan...

In the past two years, although Konoha has been pressing and beating Sakai, since Konoha did not choose to beat Sakai with all his strength, this also left a lot of buffer time for the third generation of Kazekage to deal with Lei in an all-round way. Lowe's preparations.

Bearing the burden of humiliation for the sake of a complete shame, Sandai Kazekage believes that the day when he defeats Lei Luo and Konoha is not far away...

……

At this point, it was early morning.

The dawn of dawn rose, and the sunlight pierced through the mist covering the forest like a sharp sword, and spread on the busy Konoha ninjas.

At the gate of the camp, several horse carts and ox carts full of supplies were parked there quietly. Every moment, there was an endless stream of ninjas coming in and out of the camp.

They were either carrying heavy wooden boxes, or holding stacks of quilts, with joyful smiles on their faces, which was a scene of enthusiasm.

The Konoha ninjas have reason to be happy, because today is the day when supplies arrive and are distributed. Everyone can receive brand new equipment, including but not limited to: Kunai Shuriken, Machete Detonating Talisman and other items.

In fact, for the low-level ninjas who have been struggling on the battlefield for a long time, no matter how much reasoning is said, no matter how great the banner is, it is not as good as a good knife on hand to boost morale.

This principle is common in any ninja village.

At least, low-level ninjas, civilian ninjas, especially those who have just graduated from ninja schools, naturally they don't know much about ninjutsu.

At this time, the importance of equipment is also reflected.

A detonating talisman may determine the outcome of a battle.

A Bingliang pill may determine the life and death of a genocide.

This is actually a very normal situation in the ninja world, and it is also the normal state of most ninjas when performing tasks.

After all, even from the perspective of the entire ninja world, those confidant ninjas under Lei Luo's subordinates belong to a very small number.

Although high-end combat power is very important, the demands of low-level ninjas cannot be ignored. If you want to become a Hokage recognized by others, all Konoha ninjas are willing to throw their heads and blood for Lei Luo...

Then, Lei Luo must ensure that all kinds of strategic materials needed for war can be given to all low-level ninjas without any deductions.

Lei Luo has always attached great importance to resources, and has always been very strict about the distribution of materials. As the logistics supervisor, Rika Kato has a deep understanding of this in the past two years.

Just like the present report in Lei Luo's office tent.

"Lord Lei Luo, a new batch of combat supplies has arrived successfully. A total of 2000 sets of quilts, 2000 sets of ninja tools, 20000 detonating charms, 5000 ration pills..."

A crisp voice sounded, Kato Rika stood tall and straight opposite Lei Luo's desk, while scanning the ledger in his hand, he quickly reported various figures from his mouth.

A few minutes passed, and when Kato Rika finished speaking, Lei Luo frowned and thought for a while, then asked with a little displeasure:

"Why are there so few this time?"

Kato Rika put away the account book, shook her head, and said that she didn't know either.

Seeing this, Lei Luo waved his hand and said irritably:
"You go out first..."

"By the way, let the secretariat know and let Nonaiyu come and see me."

Secretariat - this new term is a department established by Lei Luo in the past two years, which has absorbed the key personnel of the original office team, as well as some intelligent but weak zhongnin in the ninja army.

The total number of people is only 30 people.

As the name suggests, the Secretariat is an organization directly under Lei Luo, which specializes in handling some trivial matters for him, and its number one leader is No Naoyu.

Kato Rika nodded yes, turned and left the tent, and after a while, Nonoyu walked in.

"What's the situation in the village? What the hell is Danzo doing? Doesn't he know that we are fighting bloody battles on the front line?"
