Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 473 Analysis
First he finished speaking in a slightly teasing tone, and then Lei Luo turned his head to look at Nara Kaji, his face had regained his composure.

"Three generations of Kazekage are probably engaged in some kind of conspiracy, did the staff find anything?"

The General Staff Department, this novel term was also invented by Lei Luo in the past two years: similar in nature to the Secretariat, the General Staff Department is also a more civilian department, and it is also under the control of Lei Luo alone.

But different from the Secretariat, the Staff Department has a strong autonomy, because this department is responsible for coordinating the situation of the entire battle, and timely giving the Ninja Army's action plans in various aspects for Lei Luo's reference.

Simply put, it is a think tank.

Nara Shikaji is currently the number one leader of the General Staff Department, with a total of ten fixed members under his jurisdiction, most of whom are old Jōnin who have been battle-tested, experienced, and have a high IQ.

In addition to these ten fixed members, there are also some non-fixed members like Orochimaru and Yume Shiguro who occasionally participate in the discussions of the staff department.

When Lei Luo asked Nara Kaji at this time, he hoped that the staff could get a glimpse of the clues from the recent changes in Sandakin's actions and make a prediction about the next plan that Sandai Kazekage might carry out.

"Well..." Nara Shikaji lowered his head and pondered for a while, before he raised his head to look at Lei Luo again after a long time, with a trace of hesitation flashing across his face: "I haven't found much at the moment, and Sagakushi's recent actions seem to be no different from the past. ,but……"

This "but" instantly aroused Lei Luo's interest.

"But what?"

"Sand Hidden recently... the frequency of material transportation seems to have increased a lot, but based on the reports of our ninjas, the "firepower" of the sand ninjas has not been significantly improved."

"Whether it's ninja equipment, detonating talismans, or puppets used by puppet masters, the sand ninja troops don't seem to have received batches of sufficient equipment supplies, which is very strange..."

"Where did the materials transported to the hidden sand camp go? Or, are those materials... really weapons and equipment?"

Lei Luo pondered for a while, and tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously. Instead of looking at Kashi Nara, he asked directly in a low voice:

"What's your guess?"

"There are so many possibilities, I can't..."

Before he finished speaking, seeing Lei Luo frowning slightly, narrowing his eyes to look at him, Nara Kaji's heart skipped a beat, a drop of cold sweat fell on his forehead, and he decisively changed his words, expressing his immature judgment:
"Maybe it is the material for making some kind of high-end puppet, or it may be some kind of "hole card" prepared by the third Kazekage. In short, it may need to consume a lot of materials."

"High-end puppet..."

Thinking of the fight with Monzaemon four years ago, and thinking of this war, the other party has never appeared, Lei Luo couldn't help wondering: Is Monzaemon dying of old age?
However, if according to Nara Shikaji's guess, Sand Yin is really making some kind of "killer puppet", or some kind of "powerful weapon"...

So with Chiyo's level, is he capable of creating something that threatens him enough?
Shaking his head, Lei Luo resolutely chose not to think about these unreasonable things: as Nara Kaji said, there are too many possibilities, and guessing out of thin air is just a waste of time.

But in the end, there is a piece of information that Lei Luo is sure of: the third Kazekage is probably holding back some big move, and for this reason, a lot of unknown materials have been consumed.

If you look at Sagakushi's change of previous combat style and taking the initiative to sneak attack on his own transport troops, Lei Luo believes that there is a high probability that the third Kazekage is almost ready and wants to take the lead in provoking a decisive battle.

Thinking of this, Lei Luo turned his head to look at Hinata Ring, and asked:
"What about the Ministry of Intelligence? Did you find anything?"

Hyuga Tsunade, who was then the Minister of Intelligence, replied without even thinking about it: "Sakakure has sent several teams into the territory of the Land of Rain one after another, and the target is the direction of Yuyin Village..."

"According to my judgment, the Third Kazekage may have hooked up with Sanshoyu Hanzo, intending to join forces against us at some point in the future."

Because of the outbreak of the Shenyingqiu incident, Shayin and Yuyin signed an alliance treaty three or four years ago.

But the war has been fought until now, and Sanjiao Hanzo has not shown much sincerity as an ally of Sand Hidden Village.

Of course, the same is true for Yan Yin and Han Zang.

In this ninja war that lasted more than four years, Yu Yin's attitude can be said to be extremely negative:
Most of the time, the rain ninjas just huddled within their own sphere of influence, rarely actively attacking Konoha, and the results of the battle were even more rare.

Even under pressure, Sansho Hanzo participated in several large battles between Iwagakure and Konoha, but his behavior was the same as that of most Urenin:
On the surface, it seems that the fight with Konoha Ninja was fierce, but after each battle, the Konoha Ninja who faced Hanzo did not suffer much loss.

If things go on like this, Yanyin and Konoha have sensed the attitude that Hanzo wants to show:

The general summary is, you hit yours, and I will just watch from the side.

As for Yanyin, Ohnoki was angry, but considering that it was wartime, a conflict with an ally was obviously not good for the overall situation. Even though this ally was only in name, he still decided to endure it.

As for Konoha, Hiruzaru Sarutobi heaved a sigh of relief, secretly glad that the cooperation between Hanzo and Iwagakure was not sincere, otherwise, the amount of damage that Hanzo with full firepower could cause to Konoha is simply incalculable.

Under the tacit understanding, Konoha no longer puts his troops on the defense of Yuyin, but only attacks Yanyin with all his strength.

And because Konoha's background is stronger than Yanyin's, and more than half of Konoha's high-end combat power is concentrated in the Rain Kingdom battlefield, so the past two years have gradually suppressed Yanyin, and Yinyin will turn from advantage to victory .

The battlefield of the Land of Rain is the core of the entire Second Ninja World War. As long as the War of the Land of Rain is over, Lei Luo will decisively and ruthlessly defeat Sand Yin without further delay.

That said, the war appears to be coming to an end.

Faced with all this, Hanzo watched these dogs bite dogs in the Dainin village with a cold look, and he couldn't talk about any pleasure in his heart.

After all, these obvious guys had turned the Land of Rain into scorched earth, but he, the patron saint of the Land of Rain, could only watch helplessly, and the humiliation was unspeakable.

But in the end, the target of the war is no longer Yuyin Village. Hanzo's strategy has saved a large amount of Yuren's vitality, which has to be said to be a kind of luck.

Perhaps, he should thank Lei Luo?
Thanks to Lei Luo for detonating the conflict between Sa Yin and Konoha in advance, and taking advantage of the situation to transfer Yan Yin's hatred?

No one knows what is going on in Hanzo's mind, but anyway...
