053 Daimyo going to war?
Early morning.
Konoha, Hokage Office Building, War Conference Room.
Dressed in a robe that symbolized the Hokage's identity, Sarutobi pushed the door open and entered.
At this time, in the conference room, there were people sitting with heads and faces in Konoha and the Fire Country, such as the high-level leaders of Konoha, who were Hokage's assistant Samura Danzo, Zhuan Koharu and Mito Menyan, the management of Konoha's various war departments, and even the elders who had quite important positions among the major families of Konoha were invited to the battle conference room by Sarutobi to participate in today's meeting.
Of course, in addition to these invited people, there are also a few guys who didn't get the invitation of Ape Fei Ri Slash, but came uninvited.
A trace of dissatisfaction and jealousy flashed in Ape Feiri's eyes, but he didn't have the slightest way to deal with the uninvited ones.
Because the uninvited one is the big man of the Fire Country, the confidant of the Daimyo Kaito Kaedaro of the Fire Country, and the retainer of the Kaito family, Eita Kaito.
Haidong Eita, who was originally proud in the conference room, saw Sarutobi come in, and the expression on his face was slightly restrained, he stood up and said with a smile: "Lord Hitoshi, it's nice to meet you, I am..."
Before Haidong Yingtai finished speaking, Ape Fei Ri Chop waved his hand directly, "Haidong Yingtai, I know, gossip will be said after the meeting is over." With that, Sarutobi looked at the others in the conference room, and an indifferent smile appeared on his face, "Then, let's start today's meeting." β
As he spoke, Sarutobi walked straight to his seat, ignoring Haidong Eita, who stood up to say a few words to him.
Seeing that Sarutobi Slash was unpretentious to Kaito Eita, many of the high-level officials and the captains of the detachment here secretly shouted and cheered for their Hokage-sama in their hearts, and everyone had no good impression of this guy who had just arrived in Konoha and began to put up a fight for everyone, and everyone had no good impression of him.
Although the neglected Haidong Eita was annoyed, he didn't show it on his face, he still kept a smile on his face, and then sat back as if nothing had happened.
Shimura Danzo, who had been paying attention to Kaito Eita, had a gloomy face, although he had reached a consensus with Kaito Kaedaro on several matters and had several secret transactions, but Kaito Eita's visit to Konoha on behalf of Kaito Kaedaro, he did not get any news from Kaito Kaedaro.
Danzo, who has always been suspicious, couldn't help but start thinking about the intention of Kaito Kaedaro's behavior, and he vaguely noticed a hint of bad signs.
After listening to the reports of the captains of each team on the battle situation, he nodded indifferently, and then looked at the Uchiha squire who had been silent for a long time, and said: "Now that the main combat forces in the village are concentrated on the front line, can the logistics work be entrusted to the Uchiha clan?" β
The Uchiha Squire, who had just taken over the position of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan more than half a year ago, looked at the ape flying day slash with some astonishment, originally he thought that the Uchiha clan was just coming to make soy sauce at this meeting, and he didn't think that the ape flying sun slash would choose to entrust the logistics to their clan.
"The Uchiha?" Haidong Eita suddenly interjected, "Have you finished purging the remnants of the blood pool in your clan?" β
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly dropped a few degrees.
The Uchiha squire's expression at this time, three points of anger, seven points of embarrassment, the matter of the blood pool clan had reached a consensus with the top management of Konoha at the beginning, and everyone had already lifted this page, but the henchmen of the Daimyo of the Fire Country didn't know what they were thinking, and at this moment suddenly turned over the things that had been revealed and retold them.
"The matter of the Pool of Blood is over." The Uchiha Samurai replied in a deep voice, "The previous patriarch also apologized for this. β
"Can it be passed as if it didn't happen?" Kaito Eita sneered, "Because of your negligence, His Royal Highness Kaedaro's father, the former Daimyo of the Fire Country, Kaito Kohei, died in an assassination attempt like this, if you are negligent again this time, then are we going to have a new daimyo again?" β
"A new daimyo?" Hearing this, Ape Fei Ri was a little stunned, "The daimyo is sitting in the Daimyo City, how can the security be affected by the war?" β
"The daimyo has decided." Haidong Yingtai smiled proudly, "He will personally lead the soldiers of the Haidong family to the battlefield and personally kill those enemies who have stepped into our country's territory." β
There was an uproar in the conference room.
That powerless daimyΕ, Kaedaro Kaito, wants to go to the battlefield in person?
Where did he get his confidence? I'm afraid it's not a brain, right?
Seeing that everyone's eyes in the audience were focused on him, Haidong Yingtai's expression suddenly became happy, and he continued: "Not only Lord Haidong and the soldiers of the Haidong family, this time, Lord Haidong will also bring all the 'Guardian Twelve Ninjas' and the candidates of the Twelve Ninja to the battlefield together!" β
The expected reaction did not come, and after he finished saying this, the faces of many people in the audience changed, and they who were originally laughing at the ignorance of the daimyo began to think about how to prevent the daimyo from going to the battlefield.
The reason is simple, because the daimyo wants to bring the 'Guardian Ninja Twelve' to the battlefield.
Guardian Ninja Twelve,As the name suggests,It's the private independent direct force of the Daimyo.,Responsible for protecting the safety of the Daimyo's twelve elite ninjas.,To put it nicely.,It's the super elite.,Because the people who can be selected to become the twelve ninja are the leaders of the ninja village.,To put it ugly.,It's the dog raised by the Daimyo's family.γ
But even if it is a dog, it is a dog raised by the Daimyo, and the status of being a dog is far greater than that of many upper ninja in the ninja village, so there are countless people who want to be a dog for the Daimyoβincluding many high-ranking people in the field, and out of order to curry favor with the Daimyo or want to get along with the Daimyo, they have sent the elite of the family to participate in the selection of the Guardian Ninja Twelve.
And among the current Guardian Ninja Twelve, nearly half of them are from the families of the high-level people present!
Not to mention those ninjas who failed to pass the selection because some conditions did not meet the standards, and were temporarily listed as alternates!
These people are not only the Guardian Ninja Twelve and their candidates, they are also the pillars and hope of their family in the future! Letting them run for the Guardian Ninja Twelve is not to let them fight and die, just to gild them!!
Shimura Danzou and Sarutobi Hizashi glanced at each other, the two had known each other for many years, and with a simple look, they could know each other's views on this matter - this matter was probably irreparable, so they could only consider letting the daimyo and the Guardian Ninja Twelve guard the relatively safe rear, and then send elite troops to expel the enemy from the country as soon as possible.
After all, when Kaito Eita conveyed the meaning of the Daimyo, he also said that it was the enemy who 'stepped into the land' to kill the enemy, not to go to the Land of Rain to fight the Rain Shinobi - this is also the cunning of the Daimyo, which shows his bravery to the people without putting himself in danger.
"So... The Uchiha clan should continue to be in charge of the security of the village. "The supply and guarding of the logistics troops on the border is the most important part of this war, and if His Highness Haidong and his Guardian Ninja Twelve are willing to take charge of this link, it will not only boost the morale of the soldiers in front, but also make us feel much more at ease in the rear." β
Haidong Yingtai nodded slightly, he naturally would not object to the proposal of Ape Fei Ri Slash, a very sensible and capable person, and the other high-level leaders in the field were also a little relieved, and the noise was a lot less.
