The battle of the Eastern Front fell into a weird silence. After the Land of Thunder officially declared to join the war, the actions of the army of the Land of Water began to become silent. Everyone knows that there will be big moves in the next Water Country, and they will always pay attention to its every move.

However, the sphere of influence of the water country covers the large and small islands behind, except for the strongholds located in the fire country, the areas within the ocean are not easily detectable by Konoha ninja, because of this, the misty ninja sword seven people His whereabouts are so fascinating.

Although the battle was temporarily stopped, the fighting ninjas could breathe a sigh of relief, but the task of intelligence ninjas became more and more onerous, and a large number of reports were sent to the table of Sarutobi Hizen every day. Sarutobi Hizaki was not in charge of intelligence tasks, but as the commander of the position, he had to review it daily.

"You said, how on earth will Fog-Hidden Ninja Village fight this battle next?" Sarutobi Hizen held a scroll in his hand and said to Shimura Danzo who was silent on the side.

"I don't know, so we have to find some clues from this information." Shicun Tuanzang said quietly.

"But this information is too vague. I don't know what they intend to do. At most, they can only judge that they will have a large-scale operation next. However, this kind of thing can be judged only by common sense, and there is nothing more. Clear information?" Sarutobi Hizen threw the scroll on the table and shook his head.

Everyone knows that the Nation of Water cannot choose to abandon the war, and in order to solve the situation that the Nation of Thunder and the Nation of Fire are approaching together, they must have large-scale actions, and the specific actions are not so easy to judge. When it comes out, everyone has different ideas and practices. Even if they are all experienced ninjas at the same level, they cannot think exactly the same.

Sarutobi Hizumi has read and doesn’t know how many reports, but all of them are vague. It is nothing more than saying that the water country is moving in a certain place, and there is action in a certain place, but the specifics are what the people below are. I can't explain it clearly.

"You think I don't want to get more detailed information, but the main actions of the water country are all carried out on the island." Shimura Danzo heard this, and also threw the scroll he was looking at on the table, with an expression on the surface. Compassionate, but his heart is obviously not at peace, "But we just couldn’t reach the islands. If the country of the vortex was still there, it would be better. But because of the short-sightedness of those guys, we couldn’t act rashly. In the end, they brought their people back, but the island was lost. I really don’t know whether it was a profit or a loss!"

"It's all over, and it's useless to say it. For the sake of Mito-sama, please forgive them." Sarutobi Hitori waved his hand and said.

Shimura Danzo snorted heavily and picked up the scroll. Seeing his friend's performance, Sarutobi Hitizan shrugged helplessly and asked, "Is there no alternative?"

"Yes." Shimura Danzo said while looking at the scroll.

"Sure enough, it's not that easy..." At this point, Sarutobi Hizhan suddenly reacted and said in surprise: "It really is, what is it?"

"Don't you know? It's the members of the Wind Demon Family who say they can help us with intelligence, but because they can't be trusted, they haven't officially agreed." Shimura Danzo said.

"They." Sarutobi Hizaki seemed to be discouraged, and sat back on the chair again. He did know about it. It was also that he and Shimura Danzo decided not to use them for the time being, so they forgot that there were still these people. .

The Wind Demon family is a relatively special ninja family. After the end of the Warring States period, the large and small ninjas joined the ninja village in the country where they were located. Only a few ninja families did not choose this path, such as the Uzumaki family. There are activities of the secluded Taketori family.

The Wind Demon Clan was also a powerful clan during the Warring States Period. They did not have a fixed place of residence, but made a living by smuggling. At first, they lived in the country where they lived all the year round. Later, they gradually expanded their business to Yunokuni and the sea. Nearby, during the lockdown period of the Water Country, by secretly selling goods to the Water Country, the Wind Demon family made a lot of money and became the most powerful sea smuggler.

The merchant trade supported by Konoha Ninja Village sometimes had friction with it. At that time, Konoha Shinobu, who came to the merchants to learn, would participate in the task of dealing with the Wind Demon Clan, because the Wind Demon Clan did not dare to offend Konoha Ninja Village. Although there are some conflicts between the two sides, they are generally in peace.

With the support of Konoha Ninja Village, the smuggling trade on land has gradually no market. Therefore, the smuggling trade in the Water Country has become a relatively important source of finance for the Wind Demon family. However, the moment the Water Country launched the war, it affected the smuggling trade of the Wind Demon Clan and seriously damaged its interests.

Although the Wind Demon family can choose to continue their war and trade with the Water Country, their main place of activity is still on land. They have had friction with the Konoha Ninja Village before. If there is such an act of funding the enemy, I'm afraid Konoha Ninja Village will not care about anything, and directly choose to destroy them.

If the time comes, what should the Wind Demon Family do? Is it going to leave the country of fire and run to those sea islands to live with the country of water? If the Water Country is strong enough, they may still choose this path. However, the Wind Demon family, which has been operating on the mainland for many years, really has no confidence in the Water Country, especially after the Thunder Country officially declared war. The country of water supply is sentenced to death.

If in the war, the Water Nation can gain temporary benefits, occupy the land, and expand its own strength-although they think this is unlikely-but the Wind Demon family is unlikely to get much benefit from it, they are smuggling The country of water, which makes a living by trade, will not need to rely on smuggling much in the future, and it will be able to conduct commercial trade in a legitimate way. You know, Water Country actually hates smugglers like the Wind Demon Clan, no matter which one, the Wind Demon Clan can't live a good life.

Therefore, for them, a water country that is internally locked in and dependent on trade smuggling is their best choice. Then, we should help the nation of fire win the victory and force the nation of water to shrink back onto the island. They think they have that value, relying on the experience of smuggling at sea, they have the ability to obtain some information, presumably Konoha Ninja Village will definitely be interested, so that they can also be friendly with it, and it is also beneficial to the future of the Wind Demon Family.

However, Konoha Ninja Village did not so easily believe in the surrender of the Wind Demon Clan, because they may also secretly unite with the Water Country and plan to ambush Konoha Ninja Village. Regarding this point, the Wind Demon Family also has expectations, but they have repeatedly expressed their sincerity, hoping that Konoha Ninja Village can agree.

"Can you agree to them? Although there are some risks, the next move of the Water Country is likely to affect the entire war. I think this risk can still be taken. After many investigations, we can actually already determine the wind and magic. Is the family really sincere to collect information for us?" Sarutobi Hitizan said.

"I also think they are unlikely to betray. Although there is a bit of risk, if strict supervision and verification are carried out in this process, the risk can be minimized." Shimura Danzo nodded slightly, "but I still feel a little worried. , What should I do if I am fooled by the opponent?"

"Danzo, you should also give some trust to others. Anyway, risks always exist, nothing more than big and small problems. You used to pursue complete loyalty too much. You must not have any risks before you are willing. Yes." Sarutobi Risaki said.

Shimura Danzo has some "perfectionism" tendencies, or he is too suspicious, he must repeatedly verify something to ensure that it is correct, and he must confirm his loyalty to the subordinates who go to perform the task to be able to show his trust. . In the original book, Shimura Danzo uses curse seals to control the members of his roots, and cultivates them into his own loyal subordinates by the method of extinction, which can reflect his psychology.

Although after leaving Anbe, Shimura Danzo's tendency was somewhat corrected, after all, he couldn't strictly control his subordinates like in Anbe, at best it was restraint. Because of this, Shimura Danzo has become more tolerant of trust in others, at least the people in his own village are no problem, but the Wind Demon Family, who has left the Konoha Ninja Village, does not dare to give trust so easily.

Shimura Danzo seemed a little hesitant. He repeatedly told himself what methods could be used to reduce the risk of betrayal. He repeatedly weighed the wind demon family's background and their position. Then, he nodded and said, "That might be a try. ."

"That's it, and, I think this will take advantage of the opportunity to recruit them." Sarutobihiro said with a smile.

"Zhaoan?" Zhicun Danzang was a little surprised.

"Well, although they have agreed to collect information for us now, it is because of their interests. The actions of the Water Kingdom now affect them. If the situation is changed, I am afraid it will really happen. They secretly unite with Water. Country, ambush our situation.” Sarutobi Hitizumi said, “We can’t feel relieved because of this luck. This war will change the situation in this world of Ninja. In that case, we should also make further changes. It is definitely beneficial for the family to draw in."

"What you said makes sense." Shimura Danzo nodded, "However, it is not so easy for the members of the Wind Demon Clan to agree. They are used to smuggling lives. If you want to get them out, you must promise higher treatment than smuggling. , Will the village agree to this kind of thing?"

"The method is always thought of. Anyway, the war is not so easy to end. Maybe something will happen in the future." Sarutobi Hizen said.

Therefore, after the two top commanders of the Eastern Front reached an agreement, the ninjas of the Wind Demon family officially became the informants of Konoha Ninja Village, using their contacts and secret bases operated by smuggling overseas to start collecting information, out of secrecy. , They did not let Konoha Ninja personally learn about their secret channels, which is also for their survival and interests.

After the wind demon family’s reconnaissance, a report that was clearer than Konoha Ninja was sent over immediately. The Water Country not only began to mobilize troops and ships, but also a large number of troops from the local side. Judging from the scale, it is absolutely impossible. They only invest in one place, and it can be predicted that they will invest their troops in combat in two or more places.

“It’s understandable to invest in two or more places. At present, we should want to open up a second front to contain our military strength and stabilize the front.” Sarutobi Hitoshi said, “but I just don’t know that they will start from Where to invest and how many people to invest?"

"In more detail, even the members of the Wind Demon family can't inquire. However, let's know what their combat strategy looks like. In common sense, we can use our own experience to speculate." Shimura Danzo said. .

After that, they looked at the simulation map of the battlefield in the house and made speculations again and again~www.ltnovel.com~ and after judgment, they determined that they were either opening up the second front in the country of fire or in the country of thunder. While opening up a second front, I don’t know which one to choose.

"No matter which one has difficulties, the difficulties on the side of Thunder Country are greater. Judging from common sense, you should choose the side of Fire Country." Sarutobi Hizen said.

"But the other party may subvert common sense. Even if it pays a little more, the gain may be even greater." Shimura Danzo did not easily agree and retorted.

"It's true." Sarutobi thought for a while, agreeing with his friend's judgment, "But anyway, if they plan to open a second front in the land of thunder, then we only need to unite with the people in Yunyin Ninja Village, even if we need to stare there. , There is no need to mobilize a lot of troops in the past, and we can also maintain our troops to defend."

Just when Sarutobi Hizumi and Shimura Danzo guessed where the Misty Ninja Village might land in the Land of Fire, Misty Ninja Village has begun to mobilize troops and place a large number of troops on the ship. It was late at night, and three generations of Shui Ying stood on the bow of a ship, staring at the fire country in the distance. Then it will be when he officially enters the war as a shadow.

——In this battle, you can only win, not lose!

Three generations of Shui Ying repeated it more than once in his heart. Before the battle started, he repeatedly declared to the people the importance of this battle, encouraged their fighting spirit, and made them realize that they have nowhere to retreat. This will belong to him. The last battle in the misty ninja village, everything is left behind.

Three generations of Shuiying's gaze swept across every ship, even at night, he seemed to be able to see the face of the misty ninja on the ship, and slowly said, "Start."

Except for the sound of the waves and the sound of the ship moving silently, everything was very quiet, however, what followed was the beginning of a cruel war.
