Chapter 458 We are fighting a tough battle, we don’t need cannon fodder
"After watching it for a long time, what do you think?"
After Orochimaru left, Yan stretched out on the back chair.
Shikaku, who came back from the Sarutobi clan and heard a lot of content, looked confused.
Although he didn't like Orochimaru very much, he had to admit that Orochimaru's abilities were obvious to all.
Moreover, this guy has a dark heart and is definitely more suitable than the Third Hokage for the task of robbing resources.
Lu Jiu didn't expect that he would move out of the elder group and force Yan to stay.
In the end, Yan didn't even think about the Third Hokage and directly pulled Orochimaru out.
He would rather use a terrifying existence like Orochimaru than have the Third Hokage come out.
"Orochimaru is a very dark person, but if he can control it, he is indeed suitable to lead the army to complete this task."
Shikaku sighed and spoke his conscience:
"The premise is to stabilize him."
Yan smiled confidently:
"I won't stabilize him, I will only pinch him. Unless Orochimaru wants to die, he will be obedient.
Besides, I am not stingy and can give him enough support and rewards.
Besides, there will be no big problem with Itachi.
Jiraiya's character is destined to not be suitable for such a role, otherwise he could be transferred. "
"By the way, where did you go just now?"
"...."
"Sarutobi clan land."
After a moment of silence, Lu Jiu chose to confess.
Are you looking for the Sandaime?
Yan was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, pointed at Lu Jiu and cursed:
"How dare you, but it doesn't matter. I won't choose him anyway, so I'll just let him continue to take care of himself."
Chance?
No chance at all!
I'd rather use Orochimaru.
Unless it's time to trick someone, you can let this old guy take action.
Otherwise, no way!
Don't even think about it.
Then am I wasting my expression?
Lu Jiu was stunned. I was saying nice things and bowing in various ways.
Now you tell me that the third generation will not be enabled...
Shikaku almost went crazy.
Hiko gave Shikaku a look like you didn't even ask me.
This is the Sandaime you went to find yourself, I didn't ask you to go.
"I'm so..."
Shikaku didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, feeling like he was crying stupidly.
I didn't understand anything, so I ran over in a hurry.
The result is not good, the hard work was in vain, and you will be embarrassed.
After the Third Hokage made his decision, he came to the Hokage's office building, but the birds didn't like him. The scene was uncomfortable.
Do you want me to come and explain?
Or, just pretend to be dead, or at worst, stay hidden for the next few days and don't hang out in the Hokage's office building.
If there was a chance to regret, Shikaku would never go to the Sarutobi clan to meet the Third Hokage.
It's okay now, I've embarrassed myself.
"Go and explain it to the Sandaime."
Yan chuckled and said:
“Let’s just say that the reason why the village started the war, besides revenge, was to plunder resources.
Looting resources requires a ruthless person, so I chose Orochimaru. "
This won't embarrass you, right?
Shikaku also went to the Third Hokage for the sake of the village, and his purpose of finding the Third Hokage was to throw the Third Hokage out of Konoha.
Hiko didn't mean to embarrass Shikaku.
Just come to the door and explain. If the Third Hokage of the province really made up his mind and came to the Hokage's office building, Shikaku would really be embarrassed to death.
"..."
Shame on you.
Lu Jiu looked up at the sky speechlessly.
Yan couldn't help laughing:
"Okay, seeing as you're like this, I'll just send someone to tell you. The Sandaime will understand what I mean."
It doesn't matter if Shikaku can't help but, and besides, there's no need for him to take action personally.
Yan directly let the ANBU people in.
"You go to Lord Sandaime and tell him that you can stay in the village and retire in peace. I have already decided on the candidate for war command, Orochimaru.
Also, the purpose of the village's war was not only revenge, but also resources. "
"Assistant sir, would you like to convey the exact words?"
In a sentence, it is important whether the original words are conveyed.
Some words will change their taste if just a little bit is added, or even one or two more words or one or two less words will change their taste.
Therefore, many times, when conveying a message, it is necessary to convey the original words, otherwise problems may easily arise.
"yes."
After receiving the standard answer, the ANBU people left.
Shikaku breathed a sigh of relief. It would be nice if someone helped him. It would be really embarrassing if he went by himself.
"Then, Master Assistant, should we start making preparations?"
To fight a war, you need to prepare a lot of things, and you can't just fight it if you want to.
The same goes for the Ninja War. Personnel mobilization and material preparation are all big projects.
"Well, go ahead and prepare. If you are a civilian ninja, just choose the elite chuunin and jounin, especially the jounin.
We are fighting a tough battle and do not need cannon fodder.
The rest were selected from each family to gather 3,000 people, and another 2,000 ordinary ninjas were selected to go to the border camp. "
Three thousand elites went to Ganyan Ninja Village and plundered resources, and defense against the enemy relied on the two thousand extra ordinary ninjas and people in the camp.
The quantity is not particularly large, but it is enough.
Don't look at Fugaku and Hizu, one is usually more indifferent than the other, and one is more depressed than the other.
But these two people's commanding and work abilities are still good.
With the two of them in charge, there won't be any problems in the camp.
As for Orochimaru, just go to Earth Kingdom to grab things and that's it.
Shikaku quickly wrote down everything he needed to record.
Yan continued:
"There is no need to prepare so much supplies. The three thousand elites will not go out for more than a month, and then they will return to the Country of Fire.
Only a few people were left in the camp to guard against the Iwa Ninja Village's counterattack.
The village only needs to keep supplies and combat supplies for about 4,000 people. "
Four thousand people are enough to defend Iwa Ninja Village.
Unless Iwa Ninja Village and Konoha fight to the death.
Judging from Hiko's understanding of Onoki, as long as Konoha takes one shot and runs away, even if a lot of resources are taken away, Onoki's main target is the Kumo Ninja Village.
Before the defeat of Yun Ninja Village, Ohnoki could not organize too many people to attack the Country of Fire.
The possibility of counterattack is low, and even if a war breaks out, the war situation can be controlled.
Compared to Konoha, the hatred between Kumo Ninja Village and Iwa Ninja Village is deeper! ! !
"I will prepare enough as soon as possible. In addition, the ninjas of each family need to be personally screened by adults."
Shikaku could do the job well, but he thought it was better to come forward.
In this way, everyone will give face, and whoever Yan chooses will be the winner.
This avoids the situation where this family is unconvinced and that family is unhappy.
Yan knew Shikaku's scruples, so he nodded:
"Okay, you are in charge of the civilian ninjas. I will ask them to send information on the family ninjas, and I will choose them myself."
