Sensing that war might be coming, Chiba made her final preparations.

First of all, this is a big problem when it comes to equipment.

Having experienced the war of attrition between Konoha and Iwa Shinobi, as well as the war of attrition between Konoha and Kirishinobi, Chiba certainly understands how important seemingly inconspicuous logistical support is.

At this moment, after his continuous hard training and pulling people everywhere, the number of ninjas under Chiba has exceeded four thousand.

Although the number of people seems to be a little small, nearly 2,000 of them are ninjas of the Blood Inheritance Family.

The one thousand that the fog ninja brought back before, as well as the Shui Wuyue clan that was brought back first, plus the new ninjas who have grown up one after another this year, and the ninjas who Chiba has brought back from other small ninja villages, there are nearly two thousand.

Although, as ninjas of the Blood Inheritance Family, a large part of the people here have not been able to awaken the Blood Inheritance, but their birth is destined to be extraordinary, whether it is in training or in terms of ninjutsu affinity, there is absolutely no mediocrity.

And these people, as well as those strong men who have awakened the blood inheritance, are definitely the most elite manpower under Chiba, although there are less than two thousand, but Chiba believes that their combat power is definitely far beyond the ordinary four or five thousand ninjas.

And in such a snowy environment at the moment, these fog ninjas, a large part of whom are water-attribute ninjas, are undoubtedly able to exert strong combat effectiveness.

As for the remaining more than 2,000 people, except for more than 1,000 children who were the first to be recruited by Chiba, with the support of Chiba's sufficient resources, now after four or five years of cultivation, they have initially possessed the strength of the middle ninja, and the remaining more than 1,000 can probably only be used as cannon fodder like the lower ninja.

As for the remaining two thousand ninjas who are basically children, they can't exert any combat power at all, and Chiba doesn't plan to let them go to the battlefield.

If it was really if the war was unfavorable at any time, he would just take these two thousand children with him, and it would be convenient for him to make a comeback, and he would not be like those big ninja villages, who had a reason not to give up their ninja villages.

And with Chiba's more than 4,000 subordinates, who are still quite sophisticated, for the consumption of logistics, just thinking about it is a headache.

In the heat of battle, it is common for a ninja to send out hundreds of shuriken kunai shots a day.

Such consumption is simply unavoidable, and if this number is multiplied by four thousand, this number is even more troublesome.

What's more, according to Chiba's prediction, if he really fights with the Misty Shinobi and the Iwa Shinobi, this war will last a hundred days.

In this way, the consumption is really amazing, and it is possible to invest hundreds of millions of weapons at every turn.

Although, it's not that some weapons can't be recovered on the battlefield, but in an environment like Snow Country, in such a huge battlefield, where can there be so much manpower and time to dig up snow and retrieve weapons.

If you take into account other strategic materials such as detonators, steel wires, wound medicine, etc., which need to be prepared, it can drive most leaders crazy.

At this time, the shortcomings of the snow country's small people and few resources finally appeared.

It's okay to say that some recruited personnel and some living materials are provided in peacetime, but in the big war between countries, there is no support at all.

As a barren snow country, it is impossible to expect them to be able to provide them with weapons, and their largest iron production is probably only daily necessities such as harpoons, bows and arrows.

"Black... It's so dark..."

Chiba, who came out of the craftsman village, had a gloomy face and sighed helplessly.

As a ninja village specializing in the craftsman industry, the quality of the weapons in the craftsman ninja village has nothing to say, it is definitely the best of the best, and the guarantee of their quality can be seen from the fact that the major countries will snatch the share from him, and when the rain ninja duel Hanzo, Chiba and their organization also bought weapons from here, so they naturally knew the excellence of the weapons here.

But this price is so black that it makes people vomit blood.

The weapons themselves are very expensive, and recently the fog ninja and the rock ninja have ordered a lot from here, which has viciously raised a lot of prices.

It is estimated that these two great ninja villages also guessed that Chiba was not prepared enough and did this deliberately.

"Where are I going to get supplies..."

Chiba frowned and kept thinking.

To be honest, he really had some thoughts on robbing the craftsman ninja village, but after thinking about it carefully, he still gave up.

Ninja Village, which is famous as a craftsman, has a few brushes more or less, otherwise it would have been wiped out a long time ago, especially in the base camp, and the defensive arrangement is not much more than that of the Great Ninja Village.

The last time he was able to fool around like that in the fog ninja, it was entirely because there were a lot of internal and external combinations, otherwise it would definitely not be easy.

Perhaps, in the future, he will probably be able to find a way to get the idea of the Craftsman Ninja Village, but at the moment, he undoubtedly does not have the energy and time to do so.

After thinking for a moment, Chiba, who was having a headache, suddenly thought of something.

Perhaps, there is a place that can help him.

A few days later, in Konoha's Hokage office, Chiba was given a grand reception by three generations.

"That's the way it is, I think that a secret alliance between us can bring us the greatest benefit, with your Konoha situation, although it may not be very scary to fight against Yun Shinobi, but if Iwa Shinobi and Mist Shinobi get involved like last time, you must also know what it feels like to be besieged, and if you support me, I can naturally give you the greatest help." ”

"The greatest help..."

The eyes of the three generations flickered slightly, thoughtfully.

"That's right, I have a conflict with Iwa Shinobi and Mist Ninja, I must also know that I have a grudge with Iwa Ninja Village, and I also have a conflict with Mist Ninja Village on the sea, I can promise that if Iwa Shinobi and Mist Ninja start a war against Konoha, I can trouble them in the back, and on the other hand, if we Snow Ninja are destroyed by them, do you think they will join forces with Cloud Ninja to attack you Konoha. ”

"In addition, in the future, maybe we can also help you threaten Yun Shinobi, as long as you look at the geographical relationship, you can know that we are completely natural allies, there is no reason for contradictions at all, as long as you support us through the current difficulties, you Konoha will no longer fall into the embarrassing situation of being besieged by many great powers. ”

"Is that so?" the three generations thought about Chiba's words, and they were quite moved.

What Chiba said is the truth, no matter where you look at it, there is no reason to refuse, although Chiba knows that it seems that Yun Ren did not attack Konoha in a big way later, but at this moment, it is indeed very dangerous between Konoha and Yun Ninja, and a big war is about to break out.

Soon, the two sides reached a consensus that Konoha would contact the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and sell a large amount of supplies to Chiba at cost price, less than one-tenth of the price of Takushinobi weapons.

As the most prosperous and wealthy country, the country of fire has always had the least pressure on logistics, at this moment, it has been a truce for several years, although Konoha is weak, but the military reserves are definitely massive, sold to Chiba, although it is the cost price, but it can make a little bit of money.

Not long after, Chiba left Konoha with a large number of material contracts that were enough for them to fight for half a year.

Not only that, but Chiba also took away some simple medical equipment support and various drug support related contracts.

Over the years, Chiba's help to Konoha is indeed not small, not only for the sake of profit, but also to repay and win over Chiba, and the support given by Konoha is far more than Chiba imagined.
