While Chiba is growing itself, the Akatsuki organization itself is also growing rapidly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The orphans brought back earlier, under their training, already have the strength of the elite lower ninja, and the best of them even have the strength of the middle ninja.

Compared with these, they have lived together since childhood, and under the intentional cultivation of Chiba, the tacit understanding and cooperation of these people are far beyond ordinary people, and they can often exert amazing strength.

In addition to these orphans, the Xiao organization itself is also constantly recruiting talents, and scattered, their organization has expanded to more than 300 people.

There are even more than a dozen special shinobi and shinobi.

Compared to those ninja villages with thousands of people at every turn, their scale is certainly not worth mentioning, but in the small country of the Land of Rain, they do have some taste of fame, compared to those scattered organizations, they are already a big behemoth.

In particular, they have recently felt that their strength is enough, and they finally shouted the slogan of revitalizing the country of rain and ushering in peace with their own strength, which has attracted many people to join.

The growth rate was naturally faster and faster for a while, and even many people in Rain Ninja Village heard their ideas and expressed their goodwill to them.

However, although his own strength is getting stronger and stronger, Chiba is gradually feeling the pressure.

Not surprisingly, they should have received the attention of Yushinobi and even Hanzo.

Recently, according to the intelligence of the people below, they have received a lot of inexplicable snooping eyes, and there are always people outside the base of the Xiao organization to investigate their truth.

Obviously, that's what it means to be noticed.

In fact, in the past few years, some of Hanzo's various measures have indeed been quite unpopular.

Originally, Hanzo, who was constantly fighting bloodily for peace and for the country of rain not to be bullied, finally completely let go of those ideas in the past.

Instead, they began to crack down on those who sought to improve the status quo.

At the same time, under the pressure of the big powers, he even endured some unreasonable conditions, such as handing over some heroes who had made great contributions and killed important members of the other party.

Just like the three generations of Hokage later for the sake of the village, it was clear that it was not his fault, but he had to hand over the policy of bowing his head like the day difference.

All of this disappointed the followers of the rain ninja around him.

Perhaps, this is a manifestation that Hanzo has despaired of the difference in strength between Rain Shinobi and the Great Ninja Village.

After all, their rain country is less than one-tenth of the territory of the big country, and they are still oppressed and exploited by various countries, and in the same case of heavy losses, all countries have recovered their vitality and brewed three wars, but their rain ninja has not even recovered a small half of their strength.

It is that Hanzo has now completely changed his political opinions, and he is constantly compromising with the Great Ninja Village, although because of his prestige, people have not resisted, but in fact, Hanzo's prestige has indeed been declining, and it is gradually becoming unpopular.

Even Chiba himself can clearly see that as soon as they know that the organization continues to develop, it will inevitably collide head-on with Hanzo.

At present, they do not have the strength to compete with Hanzang, and even if it is enough, it is difficult to guarantee that Hanzang will pull outsiders to participate in the civil war, such as the later Tuanzang.

So Chiba has to plan it well.

At present, their strength is still weak, maybe Hanzo will not attack them to intensify the contradictions, but once they make Hanzo perceive the threat, what they are waiting for will inevitably be Hanzo's crazy suppression.

So can they slow down their progress? The answer, of course, is no, and it would be self-defeating to do so.

So, there's only one thing left for Chiba to do now.

That is to disguise yourself as much as possible and delay the day when Hanzo perceives the danger.

And he already had a plan for the relevant method, that is, to open a base.

This is a strategy that Chiba has already worked out for a long time.

Compared to a powerful country like the Land of Rain, which can wrestle with big countries, several small countries around it are completely weak.

After the sub-base is opened, as long as you keep a low profile and pay attention, you don't have to worry about being attacked and destroyed at all.

At present, Chiba has made a preliminary plan to arrange the training base of the orphans around the effect.

In addition, there are some people who have not yet grown up and are weaker and also need to be assigned.

In the end, only the strong people above the middle ninja were left in the rain country.

Of course, this step has to be slow.

Every time they absorb new people, they transfer out some of the weakers.

This way they will look like they will always be the same, and should minimize the possibility of being feared.

And once the fight really starts, it is completely possible to recall these scattered members at any time.

So the question at the moment is where to choose where the first sub-base will drive.

Carefully studying the map, Chiba finally came up with a preliminary place.

The junction of the land of craftsmen and the country of rivers.

The Craftsman's Country is a very small effect, even so small that it is difficult to mark on the world map.

However, the strength of this small country itself is still very good, after all, it is relatively rich, and because of the well-made equipment, it is also famous among the ninja villages.

Chiba's initial idea was to simply convert some people with poor talents into logistics personnel.

Let these people concentrate on making equipment for them and hoarding detonators or something.

And the reason why the sub-base is not directly located in the country of craftsmen is, of course, because of the possible troubles of the craftsman ninja village.

After all, the country of craftsmen is so small, and there are so many people who can't find out about it suddenly, on the contrary, although the strength of the river country is not bad, the country of rivers is more than three times larger than the country of rain, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to find even if more people are put in.

After finalizing the plan, Chiba beckoned Yahiko and they were ready to go.

In addition to the location of sub-bases, they can also do a lot of things by the way.

It just so happens that Yahiko has been complaining that the weapon is not good, so he can go and get him a change.

With the inventory materials and savings of the organization they know, they dare not say that the weapon is strong, and there is no problem with the stronger weapon.

In addition to this, they also need to take this opportunity to stock up on a batch of weapons and supplies.

After all, Chiba himself knew that a big battle was about to come.

Once the war starts, it will not be said that weapons are difficult to buy, and that value alone will be unacceptable to ordinary people.

The price of the black market, which was already black, has doubled several times, and that feels like Chiba can't imagine.

It's even better to find a way to pull a group of craftsmen directly into the gang, so that they don't get stuck in logistics by others.

Thinking about it carefully, Chiba really felt that this trip to the country of craftsmen might really have to go.
